Chapter 875: The Technique of Taking Shortcuts
"The highest level of technological civilization is level ten, and the core technology of a level ten civilization is 'conceptual technology,' which can also be called 'causal interference technology.'"
For some reason, Gu Heng had a feeling that what was to come would be very abstract.
Even if the system could explain causal interference in a simple and profound way, Gu Heng wouldn't dare say that he could easily understand it.
"Regarding the Level 10 civilization, the information in this data node is not detailed; it only states that it is related to the 'Era Gods'."
"The 'Holy Land of the Epoch' is the most powerful and representative force within an entire civilization. The Holy Land of the Epoch of the technological civilization is quite special. It is a union composed of all ten-level technological civilizations and is called the 'Eye of Technology'."
The system didn't respond this time, so it seems it didn't get much information either.
"What exactly is the phenomenal world?"
Gu Heng continued, "Is it another universe?"
"That's not a precise statement. From the perspective of technological civilization, the universe is the void where the host is currently located, and there are many such universes, but the phenomenal world is above the universe and encompasses everything."
"If we interpret this using the knowledge of 'Immortal Civilization,' this universe is called the 'Source Realm,' while the Phenomenon Realm is called the 'Myriad Realms'..."
"It depends on which civilization's knowledge the host intends to use to understand it."
"However, the Origin Realm where the host is currently located is within the sphere of influence of the Immortal Dao Civilization and is subject to its jurisdiction. Therefore, it should be understood in accordance with the knowledge of the Immortal Dao Civilization."
“Every civilization in the phenomenal world governs a large number of source worlds like these.”
Gu Heng: "Oh..."
He was completely bewildered.
The system rattled off many things that Gu Heng had never even considered.
It might not be wrong; Gu Heng doesn't quite understand it yet, so he should go back and digest it properly first.
The matter of Zero has now been resolved. As for whether it was resolved perfectly or not, Gu Heng doesn't care. Anyway, he's already locked up in jail, and it's unlikely he'll cause any trouble anytime soon.
"Then please shrink this warship so I can carry it with me."
"But what if that zero gets compressed because the warship has shrunk...?"
Gu Heng didn't actually care whether that guy lived or died; he just didn't want him to die right now. "No, the internal space of the Apocalypse warship is unaffected by space folding."
"That's enough."
Gu Heng received an affirmative answer, and he decided to wander around the warship and take a good look at it. After all, it was his spoils of war, and he couldn't leave without exploring it.
He walked deeper into the tower of this "island," which meant he had entered the interior of the Apocalypse warship.
This is indeed a warship.
Gu Heng saw the control room, the weapons control room, and the prison cells where the prisoners were held. Zero was inside, motionless. Although Zero's eyes would suddenly turn fierce when he saw him, the system wouldn't allow him to speak or move, so Zero could only glare at him like that.
Unbeknownst to him, Gu Heng had already arrived at the "warehouse area".
He couldn't describe how huge this warehouse district was, but at least from his subjective perspective, Qin Yiyao's Central Plains Imperial City wasn't even as big as this warehouse district!
Although he didn't know much about technological civilization, he could still recognize the combat mechs and mechanical objects piled up in the warehouse.
There were also many things that Gu Heng had never seen before, and the system would pop up to explain them from time to time. However, those things like "neutron void spirits," "paradox bombs," and "sub-black hole battle stars"...
Don't understand at all.
All you need to know is that it has strong combat power and great strength; it's all his stuff anyway.
In one corner of the warehouse area, there were more than a dozen books.
Compared to the other high-tech inventory in the warehouse, these books seemed completely out of place.
Gu Heng couldn't resist his curiosity and picked up one of the books.
The book was titled "The Immortal Scripture of the Epochs." "System, what is this?"
"This is a top-level cultivation technique unique to the Immortal Dao civilization. It is a 'shortcut' technique that was created by statistically analyzing the cultivation methods of countless cultivators in the Immortal Dao civilization, removing all the dross and keeping only the essence."
According to the information recorded by this system, the "Epoch Immortal Scripture" is only circulated among the top twenty source realms under the jurisdiction of the Immortal Dao Civilization.
Gu Heng raised an eyebrow.
According to the system, this Epoch Immortal Scripture seems to be some kind of "standard answer".
In the path of cultivation, some people will inevitably go astray and suffer from qi deviation. At best, they will lose their cultivation; at worst, they will lose their lives. Gu Heng had heard of such things many times.
But how could someone actually write down such a technique?
If you cultivate in this way, you don't have to worry about going astray. It's like taking a shortcut, making it faster and safer than others!
Great.
But how did this thing end up on the Apocalypse warship?
Could it be that technological civilizations also enjoy collecting cultivation techniques from other civilizations? But according to the system, technological civilizations don't practice cultivation; in fact, the entire civilization considers "cultivation" a heretical path...
But what you say and what you actually do are two different things.
"Then... should I learn it?" he couldn't help but ask the system.
"Useless to the host."
"Never mind then, but you can take it back to show the little girl and the others."
Gu Heng sat down and casually flipped through the pages. The contents didn't seem particularly special, but the Epoch Immortal Experience happened to record the realm system!
This caught his attention. He could ignore everything else, but he had to see this.
"Let me see what's next..."
In the immortal civilization, cultivators all start from the mortal realm, then the supreme realm, and then the origin realm. There's nothing wrong with that; Gu Heng already knew all of this.
The Epoch Immortal Scripture also describes it clearly.
After the Origin Realm comes the World Realm, just as the old tree said.
However, the cultivation system recorded in the Epoch Immortal Scripture is much clearer and more understandable!
For example, breaking through from the Origin Realm to the World Realm means that the cultivator's "life source" has gradually become complete, breaking through the rules of the Origin Realm, and gaining the qualification to enter the myriad worlds!
The myriad realms are very different from the Origin Realm. Within the Origin Realm, the "rules" of the Origin Realm's will prevail, while in the myriad realms, the "concepts" of the epochal gods prevail!
The entire universe does not allow any being with strength below the World Realm to exist.
If one does not attain the World Realm and travel to the myriad realms, one will be annihilated by the conceptual power of the myriad realms the moment one enters!
Only by achieving the World Realm and condensing a complete "Life Source," along with a qualitative change in the physical body, soul, and so on, can one survive in the myriad worlds; otherwise, even survival is difficult.
However, there are exceptions, such as those in technologically advanced civilizations who don't practice cultivation; they must have other methods...
The World Realm has only four stages: Initial Success, Minor Success, Major Success, and Perfection.
This represents the upcoming changes in one's destiny.
And beyond the World Realm lies…
"The Creation Realm and the Nirvana Realm?"
