Chapter 538: Thoughts and Explorations on Reincarnation
"Haotian, I'm not clean anymore, wuwu..."
"Hey, why are you crying? I just messed it up a bit. During the day, it was really weird. No matter how I messed with it, it wouldn't come loose, hehe..."
In the wooden house of Wanghu Lake in the spiritual world, Ying Ling and Zhang Bairen, a pair of happy enemies, started fighting again.
Ever since Zhang Bairen came out half a year ago, he has been passively doing one thing every day: being studied!
Not only did they study it during the day, but Yingling also studied it. The two of them wanted to dissect Zhang Bairen.
Zhang Bairen's body was very strange, feeling like he was half human, half spirit. Even stranger was that he had no power of his own, yet he could mobilize the power around him.
During the day, I tried to bring Zhang Bairen to the human world, and it actually worked. However, in the human world, Zhang Bairen would feel uncomfortable. During the day, I explored it and found that it was not that Zhang Bairen would dissipate, but that he could not adapt to the power and oppression of the human world.
What the Heroic Spirit was interested in was why Zhang Bairen could so easily endure her baptism without his memory being erased or his body disintegrating...
"You two, stop messing around." Bai Tian said with a stern face, "Do your work well and summarize your insights about reincarnation. I'll bring them back to the human world later."
Zhang Bairen finally stopped crying and said seriously, "Haotian, I came to you to tell you something. I feel that the so-called reincarnation is probably an illusion. In fact, there is no such thing as reincarnation."
Bai Tian frowned: "But haven't you been reincarnated many times in the cycle of reincarnation?"
"He hasn't left the passage either," Ying Ling continued. "Since he hasn't left the reincarnation passage, then isn't everything just an illusion?"
These words made Bai Tian stunned. He had never thought about this issue carefully.
Zhang Bairen continued, "Before, I did think this was a law of reincarnation. But lately, I've been thinking that maybe this so-called reincarnation is actually a deliberate attempt to obscure my exploration of the law."
"After communicating with the Heroic Spirits during this period, I discovered that my thoughts were correct. The so-called reincarnation is simply impossible, at least not now."
"It's terrifying to think about it. If humans can be reincarnated with their memories, then other ferocious beasts can't survive. So, it's very likely that reincarnation is actually just the reincarnation of power."
Bai Tian frowned and said, "But how do you explain the soul?"
"This is what I can't explain right now." Zhang Bairen scratched his head awkwardly. "Why do people have souls after they die? I don't understand."
Isn't that just saying it in vain?
Bai Tian was a bit amused and confused. He knew that the cycle of power was the fundamental principle, but if the theory of the soul couldn't explain it, then reincarnation was a possibility...
"That's because the power of the human world and the spiritual world resonate." Su Ling's weak voice came.
Bai Tian was overjoyed: "Su Ling, you're awake."
Su Ling nodded weakly. "Bai Tian, he's right. At this stage, reincarnation is impossible. Or rather, reincarnation is always going on, it's just an exchange of power."
"We've always forgotten about yin and yang. The human world and the spirit world are actually the transformation of yin and yang. The alternation of yin and yang forms the soul. The reason the soul has consciousness is simply because its own power is strong enough and it can control the transformation of yin and yang..."
"I saw many forces in the reincarnation channel heading towards the human world. In fact, those forces are also a kind of 'soul', but our naked eyes cannot see it. And the souls coming from the human world are just visible to us."
"Power itself can be controlled by consciousness. It's very likely that we have souls simply because we tend to imagine the soul power that dissipates after death as a human form..."
Listening to Su Ling's story, Bai Tian became thoughtful.
He could truly understand Su Ling's statement. It was highly likely that the current state of reincarnation was immature, as not many people in the human world understood soul cultivation.
Nowadays, cultivation in the human world is all about absorbing strength and reducing combat effectiveness, with very little attention paid to the forging of mental strength and soul.
It is very likely that this is the reason why the souls entering the spiritual world are actually very weak, so there is no such thing as reincarnation.
But in the future, when human cultivation reaches a higher level and people learn to control their souls, reincarnation will occur...
"Sister, if you say so, is there something wrong with the five paths of reincarnation that we defined before?" Ying Ling frowned.
Su Ling shook her head slightly. "No, quite the opposite. We're right. When Yin and Yang embrace each other, the souls created are inherently different. It's just that such souls can't return to the human world."
"I understand!" Zhang Bairen suddenly exclaimed, "When yin and yang embrace, there's a certain difference in the power of humans and animals. And the soul inherits this difference, so there are five paths of reincarnation?!"
"That's right!" Su Ling nodded in agreement. "During the day, everything actually returns to its origin, the primordial yin and yang!"
During the day, his pupils suddenly constricted, and the primordial Yin and Yang...
If we view the human world and the spirit world as a yin-yang entity, then isn't reincarnation the same as the yin-yang transformation we explored earlier?!
Back when he had the black and white beads, he had pondered these questions for a long time. Now, it seemed that he was back to these questions again...
As he sorted out his past memories, Bai Tian's eyes sparkled and a smile appeared on his face: "I think I understand."
Reincarnation is actually not that complicated. It is just a law that is gradually taking shape and evolving!
Since it is not yet fully mature, it needs to be constantly trained. And the so-called reincarnation is the result of training, not the cause!
Following this line of thought, many questions can be explained at once, including the cold soul power that appeared at the beginning...
"Sister, I still don't quite understand," Ying Ling frowned. "If that's the case, then is there any point in us building this reincarnation channel?"
Bai Tian laughed, while Zhang Bairen rolled his eyes: "Ah, you are really stupid... Then tell me, is there any meaning in people becoming stronger... Uh, forget it, you are not a human either, you don't understand at all."
"You are not a human being." Ying Ling kicked over and Zhang Bairen quickly flew away to avoid it.
Su Ling explained with a smile, "Zhang Bairen is right. It's the same as when a person becomes stronger. Once you understand it, you can better utilize this law and make the human and spiritual worlds function better. You haven't practiced much, so you don't know how difficult it is to achieve a balance between yin and yang during practice."
Bai Tian suddenly interrupted, "You talk as if you practice regularly."
Her practice is to lie down and sleep!
However, she was indeed right. The law of reincarnation was crucial to balancing the human and spiritual realms.
During the day, I even felt that the wild chaos of the human world was actually related to the imbalance between the human and spiritual realms. From the perspective of the embrace of yin and yang, it is very likely that the transformation of yin and yang is too weak, causing distortions in both sides. The expansion of the human world makes it difficult for the civilization of the spiritual world to awaken...
