Chapter 555: Heart Cultivation (1)

Lin Xuan, Jiang Zhe, Qiu Yinong, and Chen Ran, the four of them gathered in the same room.

But if one looked closely, they would discover that this Jiang Zhe's eyes seemed to be more lively.

Lin Xuan was the first to use his Skill. In the next moment, this room only had three Qiu Yinongs left, and the rest of the people were all transferred to other spaces.

One Qiu Yinong stayed in this enclosed room; one Qiu Yinong stood in the corridor outside the door, observing the changes inside the room at all times through surveillance; one Qiu Yinong stood at the hotel entrance, observing the changes inside the hotel at all times through surveillance.

Of course, they were all using mobile phones.

This way, if Lin Xuan's Skill was cracked, the Qiu Yinong in the enclosed room could reset the time, allowing Lin Xuan's Skill to recover to the usable state again.

By the same logic, if the Qiu Yinong inside the secret room was suppressed by someone's Distance-Free Technique so she couldn't move, the Qiu Yinong in the corridor would open the door and use the Wheel of Time to reset the time. If she was also suppressed by Distance-Free Technique so she couldn't move, the Qiu Yinong outside the hotel could also reset the time.

Of course, the premise was that the true Lin Xuan also had to stay inside the enclosed room.

Chen Ran and the others were all transferred to other spaces by Lin Xuan.

Spaces with time flow rates that were slow, same, and fast.

Within the three spaces.

One Chen Ran, one Qiu Yinong, and one Jiang Zhe were in the space with slow time.

One Chen Ran, one Qiu Yinong, and one Jiang Zhe were in the space with the same time.

The remaining three people were in the space with fast time.

The true Chen Ran was definitely in the space with a slow time flow rate. This way...

If in the spaces with the same or fast time flow rates, once anything happened, Lin Xuan could also perceive it at the first moment.

The next moment.

The true Chen Ran and Qiu Yinong both appeared in an alternate space. The sky here was filled with yellow sand.

The two sat cross-legged in the desert.

Using Distance-Free Technique!

The next moment, the two appeared in the World of the Heart, and Qiu Yinong's Distance-Free Technique directly covered Chen Ran's Distance-Free Technique.

Immediately following that.

The City of Sin covered over. Only to see that in both the City of Sin and the Ideal City, there was a Chen Ran and a Qiu Yinong. Of course, the two Chen Rans were the same person, just with different thoughts.

After all, the Ideal City wasn't bound by rules and order, while the City of Sin's was bound by rules and order. Also, since Qiu Yinong wasn't at the Superego Mental State, she couldn't reflect players.

Simply put, it was utilizing Qiu Yinong's Unity of Man and Heaven, letting Chen Ran's thoughts that were unbound by rules go and slay all the common sense of the rule-bound Chen Ran.

But the difference was, the Ideal City had no rules or order, and one could lie at will.

While the City of Sin had rules and order, and Chen Ran couldn't lie. What would happen if he lied?

As everyone knows, players who have cultivated the second kind of Distance-Free Technique all have a certain offensive power within the Distance-Free Technique. If the Chen Ran inside the City of Sin violated the rules, it would trigger the attack of Qiu Yinong's Distance-Free Technique. This was the spiritual attack method of Qiu Yinong's Unity of Man and Heaven Heart Cultivation.

Of course, after Chen Ran lost his self, Qiu Yinong would immediately expel Chen Ran, and the Chen Rans in the other spaces would reconstruct his common sense.

And for the Chen Rans in the other spaces, because there existed a space with a fast time flow rate, therefore the Chen Ran in that space would take the lead in completing the Second Realm Heart Cultivation. Thus, he would be the one to give the true Chen Ran in the Loss of Self state the more advanced response.

The true Lin Xuan, on the other hand, returned to the original space.

Thus far.

Chen Ran's impregnable environment for slaying the Ego had been completed. Two spaces superimposed, plus a Distance-Free Technique, making three layers of defense, and also three Qiu Yinongs in the original space.

It could be said to be six layers of defense.

He simply didn't believe that the other True Self Players could be powerful enough to instantly crack six layers of defense.

One could only say it was playing it incredibly safe!

Moreover, because he wasn't sure whose foreshadowing Lin Xuan was, he drove Lin Xuan's True Form to the original space. Whenever he dared to put away his Skill...

In the original space, the Qiu Yinongs in other spaces could immediately reset the time, allowing Lin Xuan's Skill to remain in a usable state.

Within the Distance-Free Technique.

Because the thoughts of the Chen Rans in the Ideal City and the City of Sin were not the same, what they had to do next was...

One negating the complete common sense of the other.

The two sat cross-legged facing each other across the barrier of the Twin Cities, both nodding to each other: "We are all civilized people; when speaking we naturally ought to have magnanimity."

Immediately following, the Chen Ran in the Ideal City was the first to speak: "I created a country and control all the news media. If I say the sky is round and the earth is flat, do you say the commoners within this country will believe it or not?"

"They will definitely believe it!"

"Simply because they haven't come into contact with the concepts of the universe, sky, and planets. The information they know possesses singularity, therefore they can only believe this singularity."

"Do you still remember the last movie we watched before we died?"

"As homebodies like us, seeing the internet praise that movie to the high heavens, we also booked a ticket to go watch."

"As a result? I've watched countless films and never seen such a terrible movie."

"What does this explain? The information we came into contact with is all fake. But before watching this movie, did you know it was fake?"

"You didn't know, simply because they manipulated entertainment, bought internet water armies, deleted bad comments, bewitched brainless fans to spam the screen, and there was also a group of pseudo-humans who didn't know anything but just followed along to praise the movie. It was they who tricked you into the cinema to watch that garbage movie."

"Western history can't even be believed for a fart. Leonardo da Vinci left behind over 6,000 pages of manuscripts. It would require him to work 24 hours a day without eating or drinking for 70 years to complete it, but he only lived to be 67 years old."

"The Macedonian phalanx, this is what I fucking want to roast the most. At the very beginning it was said that they each held ten-meter spears. Later it was proven by someone to be impossible to do, so it was changed to eight meters, three meters, two meters."

"Ah San's mythology is still constantly being perfected and evolving even now."

"No need to say more about the Bangzis. They steal everything from us and even write it into textbooks, saying they invented it themselves. I have never seen such an impudent and shameless country."

"What does the above explain? It explains that the whole world is deceiving people."

"Let's talk about us again?"

"We've read many history books. Regarding the developmental process of imperial power, a clear process can be summarized, for example, from maternal relatives interfering in government to eunuchs interfering in government. The same goes for military generals, from separatist warlord regimes to being draped in the imperial yellow robe. But can you summarize a developmental process for literati?"

"It can't be summarized, simply because whether it was prime ministerial power, the Grand Secretariat, or the Imperial Study, their essence didn't undergo changes."

"The reason is very simple. In ancient times without informatization, the best method to deceive the world was to write books. And those who wrote these books were all literati. In their books, they would eulogize how the collective of literati was so loyal to the state, how they worried about the country and the people, and how they had the strength of character of literati. How could they possibly belittle the collective of literati?"

"The history you learned is all fake!"

"Yao, Shun, and Yu of the ancient times, how could they possibly have abdicated and handed over the crown?"

"Bo Yikao was ordered to be boiled and killed by Ji Chang. After all, there was a custom of eating the eldest son in that period. He was eaten by his own father!"

"Mi Fang of the Three Kingdoms period, how could he possibly have betrayed Liu Bei?"

"The Golden Coffer Covenant is also fake; the shadows of candles and sounds of an axe are the real truth."

"Zhu Qizhen, how could he possibly have been captured by the Oirats inside the Great Wall?"

The Chen Ran in the Ideal City used Point to Surface Expansion and utilized pseudo-history theories, wanting to make the Chen Ran in the City of Sin negate the entire history, thereby questioning knowledge, and thereby negating common sense.

But, if common sense was truly that easy to negate, then it wouldn't be called common sense.

The Chen Ran in the City of Sin organized his phrasing in his heart and began to refute the viewpoints of the Ideal City Chen Ran one by one.

Qiu Yinong, on the other hand, listened quietly. For her, this was an opportunity. Observing Chen Ran's process of slaying the Ego could make it somewhat easier for her when she faced slaying her own Ego.

At the same time.

The nine people on the River of Time all suddenly opened their eyes. Powerful spiritual fluctuations erupted on their bodies, and nine nearly complete Worlds of the Heart instantly crushed towards each other.
