Luo Kai sat cross-legged with the Book of the Universe in his arms. He hadn't moved for more than a month, nor had he absorbed external energy. His body had become yellow and thin, and even his spiritual consciousness was in a muddled state.
The hunger from his body woke him up like a flood. He rushed out of the house, pulled out a handful of rice seedlings, and stuffed them into his mouth. He quickly swept up all the edible things in front of him like a herbivore. The hunger gradually faded, and his consciousness was finally awake. He looked at the barren rice field in front of him and felt a lingering fear in his heart.
The Book of the Universe was similar to a first-person realistic game. It could experience another person's life. The difference was that the immersion was too deep. The other person's experience, feelings, and thoughts would be deeply imprinted in the depths of his subconscious. Once he was overly addicted, he wouldn't be able to distinguish between virtual and reality, and also couldn't distinguish between other people and himself. If his consciousness was immersed in it, he might not even know when his body died.
The fragmented memories were slightly integrated. The person who created this Book of the Universe was called Ceng Sen. He was a Saint at the same level as Yun Shen. This Book of the Universe was some of the most important memory fragments in Ceng Sen's life. It was full of his understanding of everything in the world.
"Brother Luo, your place is really quiet!"
A hearty voice came. It was Qian Yuanxin walking over. When he saw him, he was stunned and said in surprise, "Brother Luo, why … why do you look so haggard?"
Luo Kai tidied up his messy robe and said with a smile, "I've been thinking about something recently. I'm a little obsessed."
"Oh, Brother Luo, there's a concert in the capital tomorrow. My ninth sister will be performing then. Please be sure to come." Qian Yuanxin took out a gilded invitation.
Luo Kai smiled and took it. "Okay."
Qian Yuanxin looked at his appearance and hesitated. He still advised, "Brother Luo, I think you should go live with your classmates. It's too lonely to stay here alone."
Luo Kai had a better impression of him. He said, "Thank you, Brother Qian. I was just thinking of going out to relax."
"Tell me where you want to go and I won't disturb you. See you tomorrow."
"Okay, see you tomorrow."
After Qian Yuanxin left, Luo Kai looked at the concert ticket in his hand and thought of the concert that Liu Hou had mentioned earlier. He didn't know if it was the same one. He had a deep understanding of the way of sound waves. He could simulate any sound wave through the vibration of his body and even the vibration of his blade. Both the low-frequency sound wave and the high-frequency sound wave were extremely powerful. They not only interfered with the operation of the living body, but also could vibrate and shatter the deepest cell structure. This was his strongest fighting ability except for the Canglang Strength.
He returned to his room and sat down cross-legged. He looked at the golden page that was emitting a faint light and closed his eyes. The so-called comprehension was not looking at things with one's eyes, but with one's heart. In other words, it was looking at things with reason. Everything in the world had its own reason, nature, and destiny. The greatest function of the Book of the Universe was to increase one's own mental growth from another person's life.
In the past six months, through the comprehension of the Book of the Universe, his state of mind had reached a higher level. He also had a slight understanding of what a Saint was. When a Saint reached the level of a Saint, they had already broken away from their own bodies and looked at themselves and all living things from a higher dimension.
In order to break away from the mortal body and become a Saint, not only did the body have to undergo a comprehensive evolution, but more importantly, the state of mind had to reach a kind of "Dao." The Dao of Heaven was beneficial to all things. In short, it was inheritance and education.
Every time human civilization erupted, a "Saint" would emerge. They were either philosophers who liberated the limitations of their minds or scientists who studied matter and mathematics. They were all looking for their own "Dao." What was their own "Dao?"
…
The concert was held in an indoor square in the center of Shangjing City. It was called the Xinglan Concert. It was held once every ten years. Every time it was held, the audience would more or less comprehend some methods that were suitable for themselves. It had developed to the point where it was one of the biggest events in Higashimogami Province. Due to the limitations of sound transmission, the venue could only accommodate 10,000 people. If they were too far away, they would not be able to feel the charm of the music.
Therefore, the tickets for this concert were extremely precious. The ticket in Luo Kai's hand was the nearest VIP seat. Although he had always kept a low profile and rarely showed off in front of others, Qian Yuanxin still did not forget to win him over.
The concert venue was full of soldiers in fiery red armor. They looked around with cold eyes and exuded a cold and strict aura. At first glance, one could tell that they were well-trained elites. They were the Qian Guards of the Royal Qian Family. Each of them was a physical warrior. They practiced a kind of battle formation and were good at joining forces to encircle and suppress enemies.
Luo Kai showed the ticket and came to his seat. He did not pay too much attention to the people and things around him. He was still immersed in his own world.
A girl in white walked over. It was Luo Xuan. Half a year had passed, and the coldness on her face had lessened a bit, replaced by warmth. She immediately stopped when she saw him. Although this guy had lost a lot of weight, his starry eyes had become even more profound. She was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but ask, "You … How did you lose so much weight?"
Luo Kai smiled and said softly, "I've been thinking about something recently. I'm a little exhausted."
Luo Xuan opened her mouth and wanted to say a few words, but her temperament made it difficult for her to open her mouth. In the end, she walked to her seat. Sitting next to her was a handsome young man with a red glow between his eyebrows. He glanced at Luo Kai, curled his lips, and asked, "He is Tuoba Yong's master?
That guy called Luo Kai. "
Luo Xuan heard the frivolity in his words. She frowned and ignored him. She thought to herself, "You think you are the favored one, but compared to him, you are not worth mentioning."
The young man was not annoyed at all. Instead, he liked Luo Xuan's unapproachable attitude. He said with a smile, "Luo Xuan, after the concert, I will take you around the Imperial City."
Luo Xuan said coldly, "No. Also, don't talk to me!"
This young man was the Thirteenth Prince, Qian Yuanhong. In the five elements, water restrained fire. Although Qian Yuanhong practiced a Heavenly Level Body Art, it was restrained by Luo Xuan's Ice Spirit Body. Even Tuoba Yong could not beat him, but Luo Xuan could.
There were many well-dressed young men and women in the VIP seats. They whispered to each other. Qian Yuanxin was among them. He smiled at Luo Kai and then talked to the people around him.
Soon, the concert began. The curtain opened. Luo Kai also came back to his senses and looked up. On the stage, a woman in colorful clothes sat quietly beside the zither. The woman's body was separated by a layer of mist. Her face was blurred like a mosaic, but her figure was graceful. She should be a beautiful woman.
Luo Kai was a little curious. His eyes lit up with starlight. Through the mist, he saw the woman's appearance clearly. He was stunned. She was indeed a great beauty, but strangely, he had a sense of deja vu. He searched his memory, but there was no image of the woman.
Just when he was puzzled, an ethereal sound of the zither sounded. The sound of the zither did not have a specific frequency. It was clear and penetrating, like the sound of nature.
Luo Kai did not pay attention to the sound of the zither. He was completely attracted by the woman's face. He found that the woman's expression was extremely sad when she played the zither. Her beautiful eyes seemed to hide endless sadness.
The sound of the zither changed. It was no longer ethereal. It became desolate, vigorous, and powerful. At first, it was feminine, then masculine. This was the essence of all things in the world. In a trance, time stopped flowing. Everyone and everything stood still. The space was also frozen by the power of the music.
