Chapter 1522: Immortal Gate Ten-Thousand-Year Production Research Plan

All sorts of considerations, all sorts of possibilities.

Surfaced one after another in the minds of the Immortal Gate's councilors.

At this juncture, as the Immortal Gate drew ever closer to the Heavenly Being and was about to unify the entire Ancient God Domain, a certain possible danger was very likely to appear. No one dared to take lightly a terrifying life that had lived for over a hundred thousand years, believing he would truly be so oblivious and unaware, leaving behind no defensive measures at all.

"Understood."

"From now on, I will relocate to the Demon Heaven Realm, to the place closest to the Ancient God Abyss, and conduct the most stringent surveillance over it."

Jiang Ding said in a deep voice: "Best that we can detect something before this Heavenly Being awakens, giving the Immortal Gate enough time to respond—whether to flee, or to gather a great army to seal and slay him—all of this requires accurate intelligence. I will handle this matter properly."

This kind of matter, involving life and death, must have the Immortal Gate's top-tier power to suppress it.

"Stay safe."

"We only need intelligence. The moment there's any movement, we run…"

Yuan cautioned.

"Naturally."

Jiang Ding immediately agreed.

"Looking at it this way,"

"Our post-war Immortal Dao industrial development plan needs to be more aggressive, even if there are some risks."

Senior Jin Liu immediately interjected: "We must also establish trade with the Badaxian Sect and expand the volume of trade. These eight powers indeed possess many cutting-edge Immortal Dao technologies and advanced Immortal Dao materials that we lack; trading with them will accelerate our development."

"Of course, the same goes for them."

Like their strength, the Badaxian Sect's cutting-edge Immortal Dao materials technology and production technology have also advanced by leaps and bounds in recent years, especially since the great powers reached Dao Merging, when all kinds of Immortal Dao technologies have been changing daily.

"I'll handle this matter."

"It's just that the profits will have to be conceded somewhat… They'll surely sense our urgency."

True Venerable Divine Machine had managed the Immortal Gate's diplomatic work in the past, so these matters were second nature to him.

"Just some profits, it's fine."

Yuan waved his hand: "Now, we who occupy two-thirds of the Ancient God Domain's territory are the overall situation of the Ancient God Domain. The awakening of the Heavenly Being harms us the most, and can be considered the weight of the Ancient God Domain's crown—an inevitable price."

"There's also the Dao Merging Gong Fa…"

Everyone looked toward Jiang Ding.

During this period, it was the Great Sun Sword Master presiding over the Immortal Gate's scientific community's work. They naturally also participated closely, but the one grasping the overall situation was only him.

"Probably in about three thousand years we can produce the first edition of the Dao Merging-tier 'Wan Hua Wanhua Ciyuan Jing'."

"The Heavenly Being's legacy has been of tremendous help to us."

Jiang Ding said: "Senior Yuan said in the past that advancing to Refinement Void Peak would take over ten thousand years? It should be completely in time. At most eight thousand years, the final version of the 'Wan Hua

Wanhua Ciyuan Jing' will emerge. The remaining scriptures may require another five or six thousand years of waiting."

"Alright."

Another Immortal Gate councilor said.

"There's also the Stellar-class Dead Star Warship and the Grand Void Six Paths Illusion Realm—these two technologies complement each other…"

The Immortal Gate councilors' meeting pressed on intensively, handling all manner of matters critical to the Immortal Gate's survival.

At the same time, the Mother Planet Citizens' Assembly was likewise convening, fully hearing the opinions of cultivators from all circles and levels of the Immortal Gate, planning and formulating the next "Immortal Gate Ten-Thousand-Year Production Research Plan."

The decisions of the Council and the Citizens' Assembly would steer the Immortal Gate's future development.

……

The Immortal Gate's ten-thousand-year strategic conference lasted a hundred years, and finally settled.

The final resolution, the promulgated "Immortal Gate Ten-Thousand-Year Production Research Plan," encompassed over twenty-seven million nine hundred and seventy thousand projects, involving Immortal Dao industry, Immortal Dao materials science projects, Immortal Dao formation science projects, Immortal Dao Gong Fa science projects, Immortal Dao warship science projects, as well as Immortal Dao sociology projects.

These various projects were further subdivided into several hundred thousand sub-projects, involving factories and industries in over ten thousand worlds, involving Immortal Dao industrial populations in the trillions, involving several hundred thousand Immortal Dao races. The industrial chain stretched to a terrifying extent—even Foundation Establishment cultivators could not comprehend the existence of such an Immortal Dao industry.

If they forced themselves to read it, their brains would instantly burst.

After the ten-thousand-year plan was promulgated, all of the Immortal Gate's work immediately entered the right track, and every aspect became busy.

Jiang Ding also had to shift his work focus. For the next ten thousand years, he would be in the Demon Heaven Realm, suppressing any possible anomalies from the Ancient God Abyss for the Immortal Gate.

Before leaving, he decided to inspect the Youming Realm, accompanied by the Light Inheritance and the Grand Darkness Inheritance.

"From now on, my clone will continue to be stationed here. If you have any questions on cultivation, ask him."

"If he can't resolve them, come to the Demon Heaven Realm to find me."

Jiang Ding and the two others strolled through the Youming Realm, occasionally surveying their surroundings.

Compared to a thousand years ago, the Youming Realm had undergone many changes. Immortal Dao factories had sprung up around it, and cultivators of the Youming Sword Grotto-Heaven had begun to like wearing jeans and shirts, speaking very casually, no longer in a stilted manner, and occasionally some popular buzzwords from the Immortal Gate's secondary network would pop out of their mouths.

These buzzwords, Jiang Ding himself was not entirely clear about.

A thousand years.

For the three of them, this was not too long—just having done some things, and only having made a beginning, far from the time of accomplishment.

But a thousand years, for mid- and low-level cultivators and mortals, was already countless generations of life, and customs, culture, and habits had undergone many changes.

"Understood, Sword Master."

The Light Inheritance nodded in acknowledgment.

Jiang Ding's gaze fell upon an inner-gate Jin Dan

disciple of the Youming Sword Grotto-Heaven.

This Jin Dan cultivator was dumbfounded, in a daze, seemingly cultivating, but in fact he was not cultivating—he was furiously cursing and flaming someone online, and the one he was flaming was a Black Horn Ant Race member.

"Bullshit Netherflow Jade, outdated piece of junk…"

The reason the two of them were cursing each other seemed to be a type of material called Nether Spring Stone and Netherflow Jade.

These two materials had similar properties and were both important products on the Immortal Gate's industrial chain. However, recently the Youming Sword Grotto-Heaven's Nether Spring Stone seemed to have achieved a technological breakthrough, snatching away a large number of the Black Horn Ant Race's Netherflow Jade orders, thereby sparking the online conflict between the two sides.

One must know that the Immortal Gate's orders were not merely the word "order"—they were cultivation resources, positions, battle merits, library points, and so on, precious things involving the Dao path, involving the possibility of ascension and migration.

They didn't know what Dark Spring Stone and Dark Stream Jade were used for, only knew how to produce them, only knew they were extremely important to themselves.

However, Jiang Ding happened to know.

Dark Spring Stone and Dark Stream Jade are both related to the seventh-tier Dead Star battleship's main cannons of the Immortal Gate. When producing seventh-tier Dead Star battleship cannons, a coolant called Heavenly Dark Cold Spirit Liquid is needed, and Dark Spring Stone and Dark Stream Jade are one of the 3,270,000 raw materials used to produce Heavenly Dark Cold Spirit Liquid — raw materials on the 3,001st industrial chain.

Ten years ago, with the help of the Taiyou Inheritance and Yu Yu Qianzi, the Immortal Gate successfully improved the technical difficulties on the 3,001st industrial chain, increasing efficiency by 11.2 percent, reducing raw material consumption by 5.9 percent, which would save the Immortal Gate an enormous amount of heavenly materials and earthly treasures every year.

Therefore, the Immortal Gate did not hesitate to abandon the vast majority of the Black Horn Ant Clan's Dark Stream Jade, shifting orders toward the Dark Bright Sword Grotto-heaven's Dark Spring Stone.

The reason they didn't completely abandon the Black Horn Ant Clan's Dark Stream Jade was that they wanted to keep a seed of the material, not let it go extinct, in case it might be useful in the future.
