Chapter 1004 Ancient One: It's really annoying that the Emperor of the Galactic Empire has no s

"Soul? Mental power?"

Strange's voice echoed in the empty and mysterious room, with a subtle tremor.

He looked around, his eyes fell on the instruments that flashed with strange light and the ancient and mysterious symbols, and his heart was filled with complex emotions.

There was both fear and indescribable anger in his tone, as if at this moment, he was suddenly pushed into a new world that was both dangerous and strange.

Master Gu Yi shook his head helplessly.

In this era deeply shrouded in materialism and scientism, most people have become accustomed to measuring everything with visible objects, and often selectively ignore or forget the deeper meaning and value of life.

She sighed softly and tried to explain to Strange in a more peaceful and acceptable tone: "No, Mr. Strange, please allow me to clarify that this is not a cult organization as you understand it. We are conducting an unprecedented exploration, a treatment method that may go beyond the boundaries of existing medical cognition. The core of this method is to explore the inner world of human beings and seek the harmonious unity between spirit and body."

Strange was almost convinced by the Ancient One, but a sudden thought flashed through his mind like lightning-but they are still like a cult!

This thought made Strange smile bitterly. He knew that he had to act cautiously, so he tactfully put forward his own views: "But I must admit that I have reservations about the idea of ​​soul. To be honest, I have never really believed in the existence of soul."

"Why don't you believe it?"

As soon as the voice fell, Luther, the emperor from the distant Galactic Empire, walked in from the door calmly with his hands behind his back.

His appearance made Master Ancient One's eyelids jump slightly, and he muttered in his heart: This is Kamar-Taj, a holy place full of magic and wisdom. You are an outsider, especially with your identity, don't you have too little sense of boundaries?

What shocked Ancient One even more was that Luther could so easily pass through the protection of Kamar-Taj. You know, even those powerful dimensional demons can hardly do this.

But Luther seemed to be doing something very ordinary, and did not even cause any warning from Master Ancient One.

"I ask you, Mr. Strange, why don't you believe in the existence of the soul?"

Luther ignored Ancient One's subtle emotions and asked Strange directly. His tone was calm and firm, as if he was conducting a philosophical discussion rather than a simple conversation.

Although Ancient One was unhappy, she still understood the basic way of hospitality. She silently served Luther a cup of tea, which was her courtesy as a host.

However, Luther only glanced at the cup of tea and said, "Add honey? I don't like this taste."

When the Ancient One heard this, her heart moved slightly, and then she used her exquisite mastery of time magic to trace the time of the tea back to the moment when honey was not added.

This scene not only surprised Luther, but also opened Strange's eyes. He witnessed the power of magic for the first time, but he still firmly believed that it was magic.

Luther was surprised because the Ancient One did not use the power of the Eye of Agamotto, but simply transformed the dark power "borrowed" from Dormammu into time magic to control time.

"Since the development of human history, the time of believing in the existence of the soul is much longer than the time of not believing in the existence of the soul."

Luther continued, his eyes passed through Strange, as if looking back at the long history of mankind.

"From ancient civilizations to modern science, countless cultures and religions have been exploring the existence of the soul. Why in the modern era of scientific prosperity, we have to deny those things that were once believed by countless people?"

Indeed, the discussion about the soul has never stopped in human history, and the development of science has not completely denied the existence of the soul, but there is no conclusive evidence to prove it.

Strange took a deep breath and tried to sort out his thoughts: "I don't completely deny the existence of the soul, but..."

He hesitated, "It's just that as a doctor, I am used to speaking with empirical evidence. Before there is conclusive scientific evidence, it is difficult for me to fully accept such a concept."

The Ancient One nodded, expressing his understanding: "Your caution is reasonable, Mr. Strange. Although science and magic seem to be two completely different fields, they are actually exploring the truth of the world. We at Kamar-Taj do not force anyone to accept our views, but just hope to provide an open platform for everyone to Have the opportunity to explore, learn, and grow. "

Luther also smiled and added: "Moreover, Mr. Strange, have you ever thought that maybe science itself has its limitations? Just like Newton's laws of mechanics are no longer applicable in the microscopic and high-speed fields, perhaps the existing scientific framework is not enough to explain phenomena such as the soul. This does not mean that the soul does not exist, but we have not yet found the right methods and tools to study it. "

"Believe for a long time, does not mean that this statement is right. "

Strange's serious expression looked at Luther opposite him seriously, trying to convince him with his logic and beliefs.

"How many wrong ideas have been persisted for hundreds and thousands of years, but the facts prove that they are completely absurd. Do I need to give examples one by one?"

There was a hint of impatience in Strange's voice. He was obviously fully confident in his own point of view, and at the same time he was dissatisfied with Luther's doubts.

"For example, the ancients believed that the earth was the center of the universe, and that the sun and other stars revolved around the earth. This concept was widely accepted at the time and was even spread as truth. However, with the development of science, Galileo and Cobel The discovery of Ni and others completely overturns this concept. Now we all know that the earth is just an ordinary planet in the solar system, which is an example that illustrates that long-held beliefs are not necessarily correct.”

Luther nodded slightly, expressing partial agreement with Strange's point of view.

"Indeed, there are many such examples in history. However, this does not become a reason for you to deny the existence of the soul. Before it was proven, who would believe in the existence of cells? Even until the invention of the microscope, people could not really see the shape of cells. Can you determine whether your own statement is believed to be absurd or the truth that is not believed? "
