After a moment of absent-mindedness, Zuo Qingcang arrived in a city.
The city that appeared in front of Zuo Qingcang was a little strange because it seemed to be a city in the style of ancient Rome. There were columns, marble, and temples everywhere, but it was much more luxurious than ancient cities. It was many times more advanced.
Everywhere he looked, all the ground and buildings were built with all kinds of stone slabs. Everyone was dressed beautifully. There were all kinds of airships, flying people, and flying ships in the sky.
"What is this place?"
"The City of Angels." A man's voice came from behind Zuo Qingcang's head. "This is my hometown, and also the place where I was born."
Zuo Qingcang immediately turned around and looked at the man standing about ten meters behind him with a guarded expression.
This man's appearance was very ordinary. He had short black hair, high cheekbones, and a big nose. He looked like an ordinary white man in his twenties and was wearing a white robe.
He had no temperament or aura. He was like a university student who had just graduated from a big city. He couldn't be more ordinary.
However, this man gave Zuo Qingcang an unfathomable feeling.
"Who are you?" he asked with a serious expression.
"Too much time has passed, and my name has disappeared in the dust of history. At this point, the so-called name no longer has any meaning to me. " The man smiled. "But in human society, a form of address plays an important role. So, if you want, you can call me Prometheus."
"Prometheus?" Zuo Qingcang narrowed his eyes. "Is this the name you found after reading my memory?"
"Yes, your previous life was quite interesting." The man who called himself Prometheus nodded. "If you feel offended by your memory being read, then I apologize. But this name suits me very well."
The man's reaction surprised Zuo Qingcang. It seemed that in the man's eyes, the existence of Earth, transmigration, and reincarnation were not worth any surprise.
Zuo Qingcang asked, "You said this place is called the City of Angels. Is this the city of Amaliken?"
Prometheus smiled. "I know what you want to ask, but I can't tell you right now. I can only say that Amalican isn't what you think it is, and this place is indeed one of the countless Amalican cities 2,300 years ago. "
"Then where am I now?" Zuo Qingcang continued to ask.
Prometheus walked to Zuo Qingcang's side and looked at the big city in front of him. "What do you think?" As he said that, he walked down the street.
Zuo Qingcang followed behind him, and the two of them strolled around the huge city. As they strolled around, Zuo Qingcang discovered a problem. The busy citizens in the city did not seem to notice the two of them at all. It was as if they were invisible.
He said, "At first, I thought it was a change in space-time, but later, your hint told me that I should be in a kind of illusion. The introduction of virtual reality and the display of memory space after that couldn't be more obvious. "
"My dream? Ah Hu's dream? Or … "Zuo Qingcang looked at Prometheus' head that had turned over, stared into his eyes, and said," Your dream? "
Prometheus did not answer directly. Instead, he turned his head and picked up an apple from a fruit stall and took a bite. "Most of it is correct, but there are some problems with the final conclusion. The world we are in now, to be precise, is a deep dream jointly created by me, you, and your companion called Ah Hu."
"But it's not entirely accurate to call it a dream." Prometheus thought for a moment and said, "The human body is emitting all kinds of electromagnetic waves to the outside world at any time, and when these electromagnetic waves can be controlled, they can be used to do many interesting things."
"Electromagnetic waves?" Zuo Qingcang asked, "You're using my memory to explain the principle of what's happening in front of us."
"This can save us a lot of time." Prometheus said, "Electromagnetic force is one of the four fundamental forces in the universe. 99.99% of the phenomena in daily life, whether it's chemical changes, physical changes, the flow of the human body's muscles and blood, or the changes in the brain's consciousness, are all caused by the changes in electromagnetic force."
"In theory, as long as you can control electromagnetic force, you can replicate more than 99% of the phenomena in the universe." At this point, Prometheus smiled. "But theory is only theory. As long as one is a living being, there is bound to be a limit. This is especially true for creatures like humans. Their minds are complex, and they are among the best of all living things."
"You mean to say that the essence of Taoist techniques and martial arts is also the control of electromagnetic force?"
Prometheus shook his head. "When you swing your fist, you use the power of your muscles. And the essence of muscle power is the force between molecules. But can you say that when you swing your fist, you control the power of electromagnetism?"
"The essence is the essence. Whether you can control it to that extent is another question," Prometheus said as he walked. "The essence of Taoist techniques and martial arts is indeed electromagnetic force, but the essence of most things in the world is electromagnetic force. There's nothing special about Taoist techniques and martial arts.
"Regardless of whether it's visualization, meditation, fighting techniques, training techniques, mental cultivation methods, life clusters, life maps, or any other cultivation methods, it's impossible to directly cultivate them and allow one to control electromagnetic force as one pleases.
"Be it Taoist techniques or martial arts, they're all inventions that allow people with different inclinations to borrow the power of electromagnetic force.
"It's because a person's mind changes. It's just like in martial arts. It's impossible for a person to directly control the flow of the mind's power, control the minute changes in the blood or muscles.
"But by fusing visualized images and observing the changes in the world, one's mind can spontaneously form the corresponding mental changes. Naturally, one will be able to use the mind's power according to certain procedures.
"Take your Cold Light Wave Sword for example. If you directly make a person think of the concept of cold and ice, it's just wishful thinking.
"But sitting in a world of ice and snow, feeling the coldness of the world, and visualizing the mental cultivation methods and images in the Cold Light Sword secret manual, one's mind will naturally emit the concept of cold.
"But this is just an application method that's stimulated. "If you want to talk about truly controlling electromagnetic force, even Taoist techniques like Thunder Arts are just a guide.
"Because even if one's body can generate electricity and change electromagnetic force through power sources, it's not really a matter of one's mind controlling electromagnetic force. Instead, it's through the electrical energy stored in the life clusters, or through mechanical energy, heat energy, or chemical energy, and then by changing the power source, the electromagnetic force can be changed.
"To truly be able to create something out of nothing and directly change electromagnetic force without relying on any electric current or energy, that's called controlling electromagnetic force.
"But I've never met such a person. I personally don't think such a person can exist in this world. Because it doesn't conform to the laws of this universe. "
"You've said so much. What are you trying to say?" Zuo Qingcang asked with a frown. What the other party said made sense, but it was useless.
