Douluo: Law of Heaven and Earth

Chapter 1136 Restraining the Dragon of Alaya Consciousness?

"Old monster, what brings you here?"

Zhou Qing asked.

"I have nothing else to do," Dugu Bo said, then added, "Recently, I have made progress in my cultivation, which may come in handy."

"Oh? What's your method?" Tang San became interested.

"hey-hey."

Dugu Bo chuckled twice, keeping it a secret for the time being, and then asked Zhou Qing, "What method do you have to deal with that Alaya-consciousness dragon?"

"The method? We'll have to see it for ourselves first."

Zhou Qing wasn't very confident.

After all, Alaya consciousness is different from the soul or spiritual power. It is a kind of intangible and insubstantial thought or consciousness. It was precisely because it shaped Yu Xiaogang and made him tangible and substantial that some unknown disorder occurred, which enabled the disaster to occur in Romantina's simulation.

If the Alaya-consciousness dragon were to truly gather all things, cover the planet, and assimilate everything, it would ultimately only give birth to a bizarre entity that continuously devours life-bearing planets in the universe.

Although Romantina could no longer continue after simulating the Alaya Consciousness Dragon covering the entire Douluo Star, Zhou Qing was able to guess that she intended to assimilate the consciousness of other life-bearing planets, and eventually assimilate the entire universe.

This is the most extreme case in theory.

The universe is vast, and there may be some civilization that knows how to deal with these "aggregate life forms"... But even so, they cannot place their hopes on advanced civilizations in the universe; they must first deal with the Alaya consciousness dragon.

Tell me your guess.

Dugu Bo asked, "Will we confirm it after we meet 'Yu Xiaogang,' or should we change it again?"

"Ok."

Seeing that the others were also curious, Zhou Qing stopped keeping them in suspense and said, "The essence of Alaya consciousness is a collection of consciousnesses, and its existence originates from the people in the entire Star Luo Empire whose thoughts have been forcibly unified."

Thoughts and ideas need a carrier, namely the brain!

However, the 'brain' of the Alaya consciousness is somewhat peculiar; it is not one, but several.

Xiao Wu immediately understood: "I get it. Without a brain, the Alaya consciousness can't succeed, or it will only cause trouble."

Everything is interconnected.

The Alaya consciousness is also subject to this scope.

By severing the connection between the Alaya consciousness and the people of the Star Luo Empire, the source of the Alaya consciousness's power is naturally cut off.

"I see!"

Romantina suddenly realized, "No wonder the dragon of my simulated Alaya consciousness wanted to assimilate everyone. Besides the instinct for 'aggregation' at play, it's probably because it now has a physical body in the true sense—"

Even if a physical body and a brain are modified and forcibly evolved, they simply cannot contain the collective consciousness of so many people!
At the same time, mental strength is also key to carrying consciousness; by integrating multiple people and multiple brains, the upper limit of mental strength can be increased.

“That makes sense.” Tang San also realized the key point. “Therefore, based on this condition, there are actually two ways to resolve the Alaya consciousness:”

First, they launched a large-scale massacre against Xingluo.

When a person dies, the collective consciousness naturally becomes like a rootless duckweed, and Yu Xiaogang loses his immortality.

However, this path is definitely not feasible.

reason?

Not to mention Zhou Qing wouldn't agree, even Tang San himself couldn't bring himself to slaughter the entire population of the Star Luo Empire.

That would be an incredibly crazy thing to do.

"Massacre of an entire nation?"

Dugu Bo chuckled, "My Jade Phosphorus Serpent Venom can definitely do that, but I reckon I'll have to be suppressed by you afterwards."

"This plan is not just about massacre. In theory, it is also feasible as long as the people of Xingluo are educated and their views are changed," Tang San added. "But even if the people are blindly obedient, it would take at least eight or nine years. It is definitely not feasible now."

"So?" Xiao Wu raised an eyebrow. "So, we'll talk about the second option."

Tang San looked at Zhou Qing, "Brother Qing, you're going to take the second option, right?"

"Yes."

Zhou Qing's idea was similar to Tang San's: "The relationship between Alaya consciousness and the people can be compared to the roots, stems, leaves, flowers and fruits of a plant that can flower and bear fruit."

The people are the foundation.

Alaya-vijnana is the flower and fruit.

The connection between Alaya consciousness and the people is like the stem and leaves, used to transmit intangible and intangible 'nourishment'.

The first approach I mentioned actually focuses on the root system.

The remaining type, as you've probably guessed, focuses on flowers and fruits.

Dugu Bo asked, "Yu Xiaogang himself?"

"Yes."

Zhou Qing nodded.

Tang San also said, "By picking the flowers and fruits and isolating them from the root system, we can naturally sever the connection between the two! The solution is to isolate Yu Xiaogang from the real world!"

"That's right! The Alaya consciousness has already merged with Yu Xiaogang, transforming from an intangible and formless state into a tangible and substantial one, and now exists independently, so it can naturally be isolated!" Xiao Wu also figured it out and said excitedly, "Then wouldn't it be naturally restrained by those of us who have opened up our inner vision?"

"You can say that."

A slight smile appeared on Zhou Qing's lips, but he quickly became serious again. "But what will happen if the Alaya Consciousness Dragon is isolated and cut off from the people within the Star Luo Empire?"

“No, there is still one thing that is certain,” Romantina pondered. “That is, the Alaya consciousness originates from the collection of thoughts of the people. If the previous one is isolated, then the next one should be born in an instant.”

"That's true."

Zhou Qing did not deny it.

After all, Alaya consciousness is not a kind of spiritual energy; it needs time to accumulate and requires the unity of thought among intelligent beings.

Analyzing the current state of the Star Luo Empire's people, whose thoughts are being forcibly controlled and unified, if the previous Alaya consciousness dragon was isolated, then the next Alaya consciousness will immediately appear, albeit in a formless and intangible state.

But this is actually easy to solve.

Alaya consciousness itself has no physical form. As long as the two main leaders of the Star Luo Empire, Evil Eye Saint King and Golden Saint Dragon, are gone, the Alaya consciousness will naturally disintegrate over time and with the changing public opinion.

Conversation room.

The five of them had already arrived above Holy King Island.

below.

The evil eye between the brows of the Evil Eye Saint King could not resist the pull of the four-dimensional space, causing the souls of the three thousand Saint King Guards to be absorbed into the underworld.

"Damn it! Trying to steal my person?"

The Evil Eye Saint King was furious. Through the "tug-of-war" with the gray energy, he also sensed the existence of the fourth dimension. "Has a God Realm been opened up inside Douluo Star? Who are they? I have already become a God King. Instead of going to cause trouble for you, they have come to cause trouble for me?"

very good!
"I have already sensed the spatial fluctuations; I will go there and subdue you!"

After saying that, his evil eyes flashed with golden light, and he actually built a passage according to the coordinates that Qian Renxue had deliberately left, and went inside. Following the colorful path, he arrived at the Heavenly Court.

"They've finally arrived, Dai Mubai."

"Or--"

"Evil-Eyed Saint King!"
