Entering into Cultivating Immortality

The following is my opinion, everyone is welcome to point out any mistakes. Let's talk about the conclusion first: a science fiction academic article wearing the skin of cultivating immortals The writing is first-rate, the plot is first-rate, the imagination is divine, and the characterization is first-rate. But it would be a bit too much to regard it as a divine work, because it does not have complete explanation and expansion. What does it mean? 1. Lack of explanation, which means that the setting of this book is too small and cannot cover the broad world of immortality. Why do you say that? It is said in the book that modern Dharma cultivation is better than ancient Dharma cultivation because of the scientific cognition and cultivation system. This is to apply the current scientific system of the earth. It seems that the world of immortal cultivation is the same as the real universe, with fixed and unchanging basic parameters. Human beings can achieve better and better results through continuous scientific research. But this is the world of cultivating immortals! The changes in the laws/rules of heaven and the so-called will of heaven in the world of cultivating immortals all show that in the world of cultivating immortals, will can affect the world. Those who have power can change the basic rules that make up the world. They can make water boil when it is cold, and make fire burn more vigorously when it meets water. They are playing with the basic rules of the world. The modern scientific (modern legal system) system is completely based on the basic rules that cannot be changed! If the earth's gravity constant g increases by 100 times, ships designed with modern science will sink to the bottom of the water, airplanes will no longer be able to fly in the sky, and all matter will first collapse toward the center of mass and then stabilize. If oxygen molecules increase 100 times, all life on earth will suffocate except anaerobic bacteria. In the world of immortal cultivation, the "modern method of cultivation" constructed in this book is impossible to exist. To give a random example: "modern method of cultivation" spent thousands of years cultivating to the top of the universe, and was directly exploded after someone changed the density value of the spiritual energy. Only in this special universe constructed by the author, which seems to be about cultivating immortals but is actually science fiction, does "modern Dharma cultivation" have a place. The classification of this book in the minds of readers is cultivating immortals. It is precisely because of this category that this novel with a unique style of painting has suddenly emerged. It has such good results today, and it is precisely because it is classified as cultivating immortals. This novel cannot be a masterpiece. If you put a piece of ice cream in the potato stewed chicken rice, both are delicious. The taste of this meal is also very distinctive and unique. You will think this meal is particularly delicious. Do you want to try it again? The lack of expansion means that the world described in this book is too small. Let's take an opposite example first. Is Infinite Horror a masterpiece? Most people around me who have read it say yes! I asked them why the infinitely terrifying cultivation system was also in a mess and forced to be reasonable. So why can it be a masterpiece? Then I summarized the most important point based on their answers: because Infinite Horror created Infinite Streaming! Countless authors have expanded and perfected the infinite flow of details. You will definitely get tired of eating roast duck for a month, but it is feasible to eat roast duck with vegetables and rice for a month. This novel, however, does not have the possibility of creating a genre. Why do I think this? Science fiction, giant ships, cannons, mechas, the Death Star, etc. Great subject matter. Novels about cultivating immortals, practicing qi, immortal swords, spells, formations, and elixirs, etc. Great subject matter. Academic fiction, what is that? No one writes, no one reads. Occasionally, there is a book that does well because it is an urban novel with academic elements added to it. What is most attractive and distinctive about this novel is the cultivation of immortality? Is it science fiction? No, it's the academic explanation of immortality (in a science fiction world). So now think about it, how to expand this part? The Lord God Space has expanded into various themes such as traveler gathering organizations, dream management, spiritual power collection, and multi-person travel control systems. What about this novel? There is no solution. I can only end up in the dark road of academic fake cultivation like the author. What's more, writing like this requires a certain academic foundation. For this group of people, less than one in a thousand is capable of writing online articles. So, the greasy roast duck, without vegetables or rice, must be a delicacy. Can you eat it for a month?

Science means the end of Dharma, can it be combined with cultivation? Has the author never eaten pork and seen a pig run?

This book is written with conscience. The author has also said that the characters are based on the history of mathematics. As a cultivation novel, the setting of this novel can be justified. Some people feel that scientific and technological cultivation is a bit out of tune. In fact, this novel is a work similar to science fiction. It is rich in imagination. People who like science fiction will love it, and those who don't like science fiction will always find it difficult to read. Everyone has their own preferences. This book doesn't have the style of an epic work either, but for some reason I just enjoyed reading it. If you don't like it, maybe you have a different appetite or maybe you just can't understand it. In fact, some professional terms in mathematics and vivid examples have indeed enriched readers' knowledge, and it can be regarded as a popular science text. In short, I am very grateful to the author for reading such a novel, and for providing such a good story, such rich inspiration, and knowledge.

Book review: When I was in junior high school, my teacher said, "If you learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, you will not be afraid of traveling around the world." Hmm... The old man with the ring who appeared at the beginning, is this going to be in the rhythm of "Thirty Years of Hedong..."? Or is it just a "bloody plot designed by the author of the crime"? Learn from Wang Qi, how to become an immortal? With a series of questions, I continued reading. Wang Qi's path to immortality is quite smooth, but "it's so easy to break through the realm." In the age of the end of the Dharma, it seems that the world needs Wang Qi to save it. Something is getting wrong. The sudden appearance of Jin Faxiu overturned all previous assumptions. Finally on the right track. So, in one meal, Wang Qi broke through the sky. This, this him, is a joke. Yeah, funny joke. It's really like "learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, and you won't be afraid of traveling all over the world". Wang Qi, the top student, expressed his loneliness as snow. No, Wang Qi has so much knowledge, why doesn't he, ahem, go to heaven? There is another sentence we have forgotten, "Practice is the only criterion for testing truth." Haha, it's getting more and more interesting. However, wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and things in the rivers and lakes are not all interesting. A battle allows us to see the tragedy behind the fun. Wang Qi lives for excitement and happiness. However, Wang Qi was not happy at the moment. The road will eventually go on. The twists and turns of the plot once again move towards science. There are a dazzling array of exercises, and Wang Qi would be sorry for his scientific research brain if he didn't learn them. It is said that scientists are either geniuses or madmen, and Wang Qi looks more like a madman. Youth is for making mistakes. So Wang Qi went quite far on the road of making mistakes, so far that he needed to study the evolution of living things. This is not Wang Qi's strong point, so he is confused. Are there times when academics are afraid? Well, the academics described by the author may be a little more real. Academics become academics because of their interest. What's more, whether Wang Qi is alive or cultivating immortality, he always wants to be happy, not happy, no... No. After all, Wang Qi could not forget the incident that made him unhappy. It's so, so endearing. Well, let's learn it. He's not an all-around academic, but he's a protagonist anyway, so there should be bonuses. Let the author explain the rest of the story for us. The road to science is rugged and boring, but the road here can lead to immortality. Book Reviewer: Draft

A good novel. This novel is also one of the few that has a certain description of the "Superman" era. Many science fiction novels are actually very ridiculous in a sense. No matter how advanced the technology is, the people are still "mortals", but as long as the technology reaches the level of transforming life, the sublimation of human body and spirit should begin. Perhaps because of this The era of being a superman is too unimaginable, and most novels dare not touch on this aspect, but this novel touches on this aspect, and the plot logic is smooth. It is a good novel, but it may be opposed by many people who are used to reading novels without thinking. After all, they just read novels to pass the time out of boredom and do not intend to think.

Let's make a joke first: the distance between the author's writing style and the ideal version of the book's smooth narrative is about the same as that of an ordinary person and Zhou Hongguang. The narrative ability, which is influenced by the continuity of the person himself and the accumulation of ideological foundation, tends to be stable and natural over time. After getting past the absurd beginning and the lengthy underground plot, we finally come to the final chapter with 400 high-quality truth revelations. When tracing back the veins, the hidden clues shine like rough diamonds in a vein. Many excellent online articles can give a complete world view, or a temporary ultimate explanation, at the end of the book. The transformation of the stars is the creation of Hongmeng, the Xiling is the information interference of chaotic creatures, and the forty thousand years of cultivation starts with a choice. This book tends to believe that the finite universe is included in the causal universe and the mathematical universe. Although it is a novel, such a magnificent and outstanding world view and thinking about time, space and the order of entropy are the best among the novels I have read. As creatures in the three-dimensional world, humans are born limited by the straightness of the material world. There are no organs that can feel the flow of energy, no direct perception of space, and no ability to control the flow of time. Due to such limitations, we cannot intuitively observe the essential laws of the material world, or our direct feelings are simply wrong. Fortunately, we have science. Science and reason are the only correct ways for us to understand the world. Our eyes can deceive us, so can our intuition, and so can our experience of life in the material world. Science is the light of reason illuminated by mathematics and logic. Now that technology has significantly changed the lives of ordinary people, it is an indisputable fact that scientific research is gradually moving away from the general public. Hundreds of millions of people working in non-research jobs are active in society, but they have no direct contribution to the overall progress of civilization. Although maintaining the operation of society itself is also a very remarkable thing, and maintaining social stability also allows technological breakthroughs to quickly increase man's impact on nature, but for the cognitive world, ten thousand people eating, sleeping and doing stable non-research work are useless. They advance neither technological progress nor exploration of the physical world, merely maintenance. From this perspective, the efficiency of the giant man-made machine unconsciously formed by the society can be said to be extremely inefficient, but the insights of the revolutionaries are amazing. Obviously, in an era when scientific research is far away from the general public, science is not what it is in people's minds. Because the theories and knowledge delivered by researchers have been tested for reliability, non-researchers only need to use them without having to test them again. This makes non-researchers habitually believe that the existing theories and knowledge are completely correct and unquestionable. This knowledge passed from the front to the rear constitutes an entity that is always correct in the material world, which is what non-researchers call 'science'. There was originally a superstitious view of science, which was derived from this issue. And how many people use the name of this collection of knowledge to deceive fools! The gulf between science itself and what the public calls 'science' is even comparable to that between the pre-knowers and the non-pre-knowers. In areas that science has not been able to explore for the time being, agnosticism prevails, and how pitiful the fool is! What the public calls 'science' is the sum of known knowledge, but science itself is a method or a spirit. We explore the world, discover the laws within the limited known, summarize, verify and apply them. But we have never firmly believed that what is known is the truth, and we usually think that the known laws are the approximation of the truth under specific conditions. In the current situation where people's knowledge level is not high, it is understandable to completely believe in information input from the outside without making simple judgments using known knowledge and logic, but we should not completely indulge ourselves in thinking. Mathematics is a powerful tool for us to understand the world and a way to overcome the barriers of knowledge and vision. For example, Planck's discovery of the discontinuous nature of the world is a contribution to mathematics. The space constructed by mathematics reflects the strange places in the real world that cannot be intuitively felt, even if we can never see or touch them. From this point of view, there is nothing wrong with taking all the universes that can be constructed by mathematics as the sum of all finite universes! Since the beginning of the domestic online literature about cultivating immortals, the worldview constructed by wild and unconstrained imagination has become increasingly complete. The infinite world outside the world is basically recognized by everyone, and the logic is becoming increasingly rigorous. How to deal with aura, a variable that is different from the world of cultivating immortals and reality, is a big problem. Spiritual energy gives monks superhuman powers, satisfying the initial fantasies of the fairy world (the same is true for Yuanli, bloodline power, and other sources of power). However, as the reality of the world of cultivating immortals increases day by day, the conflict between aura and reality becomes difficult to ignore. However, this also reflects the fact that the scientific literacy of the public is gradually improving. In the foreseeable future, the world of cultivating immortals may focus more on character experiences, emotional entanglements, and mental growth. Cultivation is just incidental, or it is about the world view, thinking and cognition. And maybe someone can give reality to the aura and lay a real foundation for the world of Xianxia. The view of time and space in this book has considerable theoretical foundation in the real world. In other words, in the real world, multi-world time and space may be real, although we don't know how to verify it yet. String theory is also temporarily unverifiable. But according to the current astronomical observation results, the end of our universe may be heat death, so the end of the universe in the article is probably invisible. In addition, because the current vacuum may be in a metastable state, we may turn into light and heat in a future vacuum transition with light speed diffusion, or perhaps the transition has already occurred and we will never be able to detect it in advance. This book can almost be read as a light popular science text, but if you don't want to become a popular science text, you still have to read serious writings. This is very helpful for establishing a perceptual view of time and space.

Such a good book, don't be TJ

No matter how much science develops, you can't study the mind, soul, and spiritual roots. If you don't combine traditional cultivation, you just won't be able to pass this hurdle.

It's relatively niche. It's really uncomfortable to belittle the traditional cultivation of immortality.

May I ask the author what you are writing? People on the east and west sides can't understand it.
