Chapter 255 Dimension Ascension Scale, Shepherding All Living Beings(2/2)
Wisdom is also needed.
It requires wisdom sufficient to support and operate huge amounts of knowledge.
The word wisdom here does not just refer to intelligence.
If intelligence is one of the important abilities of organisms to adapt to and transform the external environment, it can be regarded as an important component of 'survivability'.
So wisdom is something beyond these conventional concepts.
Speaking of concepts.
In fact, all beings that can be called intelligent life possess a special ability.
A powerful ability that is different from all non-intelligent life.
This ability is to observe everything in the universe and define concepts.
Love, family, friendship, family, marriage, society, country, justice, evil, sublimity, humbleness, peace, war, holiness, filth...
This concept of infinite billions has no exact entity in the material world of the universe. It only appears in this vast world due to the definition of intelligent life.
Concepts can never be counted, summarized, or described using rational numbers.
They have no mass and no density.
They can be either ‘yes’ or ‘nothing’.
They can exist or not exist.
Although the description is very metaphysical, the concept is very simple in nature.
Concepts are actually illusions collectively accepted by hundreds of millions of sentient beings.
Essentially, it is a story that everyone wants to believe.
Realistic concepts such as banks, currency, and salary, as well as intangible concepts such as honor, justice, and sin, are all defined by intelligent life and are widely accepted.
This ability to tell stories was also the magic weapon that enabled modern Homo sapiens to defeat the Neanderthals with larger brains and stronger bodies, and eventually rule the Blue Star and develop modern industrial society.
Of course, invention, creation and civilization development are also concepts.
If we explore it from the perspective and perception of intelligent life.
Then whatever is discovered, invented, and created is meaningful and widely accepted by the collective.
Every intelligent life will inevitably use itself as the main body to perceive, recognize and think about the world.
Therefore, it can be considered that intelligent life forms have discovered many physical laws and invented and manufactured many technological products based on them.
In the end, many civilized societies born on the basis of storytelling were created.
However, if we do not explore and understand from a subjective perspective centered on intelligent life, then there will be no inventions and creations, and no development of civilization.
After all, everyone is just transporting materials.
This understanding is also correct.
There is never absolute right or wrong in this universe.
Wrong can be right, and right can also be wrong.
Even the concepts of 'right', 'wrong' and 'absolute' are defined by intelligent life.
Things have no a priori absolute meaning.
The so-called meaning is just a concept given by intelligent creatures.
Concepts and meanings, pursuits and dreams.
So ethereal, so empty.
But these 'emptiness' and 'emptiness' have pushed intelligent life from a weak ant to go through hardships and dangers, and finally evolve into a galactic overlord that collapses stars and destroys worlds.
It promoted a low-level civilization that even struggled to build chemical rockets, and evolved into a god-level civilization that could subvert the galaxy.
What Mu Cang needs is the root behind all this - the spark of wisdom that bursts out from the depths of the souls of all living beings.
Every bundle of root spirituality possessed by all sentient beings is a variable that cannot be copied.
Only by harvesting these variables can Mu Cang gradually possess infinite diversity, infinite richness, infinite driving force, and infinite cognitive forms.
This promoted Mu Cang to advance from the fourth dimension to the fifth dimension, and finally to the tenth dimension.
"The number of my subjects is too small to promote my evolution."
Mu Cang slowly stood up from the green grassy ground, his eyes penetrated the thick atmosphere of the planet, and looked at the dense sea of stars in the distance, as if he was looking at the interstellar civilizations full of vitality and intellectual brilliance.
He suddenly smiled brightly:
