Chapter 1734: Leap-Forward Development of the Immortal-Dao Civilization in the Ancient God World Cluster
Between the world clusters, certain essential things had become different, undergoing earth-shaking changes.
The Immortal Gate was an Immortal Gate devoted to scientific research of the Dao of Immortality.
Her exploration of the Dao of Immortality, the various kinds of Immortal-Dao technological research and development—pills, smelting, military formations, spirit plants, the development of nurturing formations… all such things—the Immortal Gate's Immortal-Dao science covered every aspect of the Dao of Immortality.
It could be said that the Immortal Gate was an ever-resting, super-gigantic Immortal-Dao research and development organization entity.
Every moment, new Immortal-Dao technologies were being born.
At the same time, at every moment, many research topics encountered obstacles, blocked dead by difficult problems, held back by some extremely arduous Gong Fa structures or spell structures, causing Immortal-Dao technology to be unable to break through for a long time.
For example, the mass-production problem of solar-system-class warships, the research and development problem of ninth-tier formations, the research and development problem of ninth-tier central formation-spirit computers, the research and development problem of ninth-tier military formations…
In nearly every direction, enormous obstacles had been encountered, and they could only be shelved.
Such was the research of Immortal-Dao science.
The birth of every new technology had to go through countless hardships and obstacles, even requiring the efforts of innumerable generations, plus luck, only then would a breakthrough appear.
And now, all of this was completely unnecessary!
Whenever the Immortal Gate encountered a research and development difficulty—for example, a certain formation in the mass-production process of solar-system-class warships that could not be solved—it would immediately search the inheritance libraries of the six great Xianzong, looking through them for the inheritances the six great Xianzong once possessed, whether the ancestors of the six great Xianzong had similarly encountered similar difficulties.
Once the same inheritance was encountered, the Immortal Gate would exchange for it, and the extremely difficult technical bottleneck would be broken through immediately!
The Immortal Gate was practically conducting research and development by copying books!
Almost every hundred years, the Immortal Gate's research and development of Immortal-Dao technologies such as spirit plants, smelting, shipbuilding, and military formations would undergo earth-shaking changes, technological leap-forward progress.
The world clusters were still those same world clusters.
Matter and energy were conserved, undergoing no changes whatsoever.
Yet the heavenly materials and earthly treasures, spirit pills, dharma treasures, warships, and other resources produced within the entire world clusters changed almost every hundred years, and almost every cultivator qualified to share the glory of the world clusters could feel the earth-shaking changes in the surrounding cultivation environment.
Spirit pills were more abundant and cheaper, dharma treasures were of better quality and lower price, Gong Fa operation efficiency was higher…
Nearly everything was changing!
The so-called cultivators "qualified to share the glory of the world clusters" were naturally all citizens of the Immortal Gate, as well as a portion of the cultivators of the six great Afterglow Xianzong.
In this era when the Immortal-Dao science of the world clusters advanced with each passing day, the six great Afterglow successfully kept pace with the Immortal Gate's footsteps.
Cultivators above the rank of core disciple among them deeply participated in specific Immortal-Dao science branches of the Immortal Gate, such as life, the five elements, heavenly secrets, and other aspects of research, and in related practical
production they occupied an increasingly important position, thereby likewise sharing enormous benefits.
In fact, with the Immortal Gate's Immortal-Dao science developing so rapidly, these Afterglow Xianzong had played an extremely important role.
After all, the original materials were their own sect inheritances; they were the ones who best understood how to search, how to utilize, how to apply, and other aspects. With their help, the progress of the Immortal Gate's Immortal-Dao science could be so rapid.
Especially, the existence of those six Afterglow further accelerated this process.
A mere two thousand years, that was all.
The Ancient God World Cluster had undergone earth-shaking changes; everything was different now, and the Immortal-Dao civilization was so brilliant it shocked even the Afterglow of the six great Xianzong.
They could hardly believe this was an Immortal-Dao civilization they had personally participated in building.
"Ancestor,"
"How does the current Ancient God Domain compare to the time of the Upper Realm Xianzong?"
In the highest-grade prison of the solar system, a prison enveloped layer upon layer by Great Sun Prohibition Formations, Tianji Candidate Daozi, wearing black-and-white striped prison garb, asked in a low voice.
This was a rare airing-out time; he and Taiyi Taiyi Qingmu and others were strolling under the sunlight, enjoying the long-awaited sunshine and spiritual energy, their hearts unconsciously relaxing considerably.
This was the two thousandth year of their sentence; it was expected that in at most another five hundred years they could be released, because meritorious deeds had greatly reduced their sentences.
The Tianji Xiangong Afterglow did not immediately answer Tianji Candidate Daozi's words, but instead divined for a long while, thought for a long while, and only then answered.
"If we set aside the Great Sun Sword Child,"
"the Ancient God Domain can now sweep aside any force below the Supreme and ninth-tier formation dharma treasures of any one Xianzong, including all Heavenly Persons and Candidate Daozi."
"That is to say, even if we Afterglow do not take action, the Ancient God Domain is already invincible below the Supreme."
The Tianji Xiangong Afterglow said joyfully.
"The grade of our Immortal-Dao civilization has already begun to display a level exceeding that of the Xianzong of the Fallen Immortal Realm."
"You must know, this is only two thousand years since the Immortal Gate and our six great Afterglow Xianzong began cooperating—a mere two thousand years—and such a great leap-forward development has already appeared."
"What the future holds truly cannot be imagined."
The Ancient God World Cluster was continuously growing stronger, and the repair progress of the planar passage was also very smooth, which made him yearn greatly for the future inter-domain campaigns.
Perhaps, the sect could accomplish the historical mission of a generation's revival.
Even, surpass the past?
This was a kind of beautiful expectation.
"Then, what if we add the Great Sun Sword Child?"
Tianji Candidate Daozi was likewise exhilarated.
—After the sect's Afterglow supreme treasure descended, he had become a Candidate Daozi again, no longer an aged Combined-Dao Divine Monarch, no longer a decrepit cultivator at the end of his life; before the Ancestor he was merely a young child, a young, tender, and beautiful
young child.
"Add him in,"
"and that would be enough to sweep aside all the terrifying forces below the Supreme throughout the entire Great Thousand World!"
The Tianji Xiangong Afterglow laughed heartily: "Little Tianji, you would not know how terrifying a four-step limit Candidate Daozi is. This is an existence destined to be invincible in the Great Thousand World in the future, to unify the Great Thousand World. This is the most important factor for which we six old fellows agreed to surrender."
"A promise-keeping sword cultivator, a four-step Candidate Daozi—this is simply a heaven-sent opportunity!"
"If it weren't for the fact that coming straight in and kowtowing to submit would make people look down on us, and wouldn't yield good conditions or a good price, and would even arouse wariness, we few old fellows would have done so long ago."
"In the past, did you all think we six old things had become muddled? Blinded by the pride of Supremes?"
The Tianji Xiangong Afterglow snickered, cunning as a fox.
"Ah?"
Tianji Candidate Daozi was stunned.
"He possesses the true capacity to accommodate the likes of us, the six remaining glows of Taiyi Qingmu Xianzong!"
"If the sect had not perished and was still thriving, the moment they saw him, every supreme being across the entire Great Thousand World would have surrounded and killed him without hesitation, to the death, in absolute frenzy."
"But at this juncture, when the sect has already perished, this is the east wind of the sect's future rise."
"Every Fourth-Step Limit Dao Child is a miraculous being."
"Little Tianji, remember this: in the future, you must be useful—at the very least, extremely useful on the path of Tianji's rules. This usefulness will be the key to your ascension to supreme being."
The remaining glow of Tianji Xiangong, Dundun Sect, instructs the sect's future, the being with the greatest current potential in the sect.
"Yes, Ancestral Master!"
The Tianji Dao Child nodded solemnly.
When the Great Sun Sword Child is an enemy, he is utterly terrifying, living in constant dread.
But when the Great Sun Sword Lord is a friendly force, he is so reassuring, so comfortable—because he himself will charge straight into the most dangerous and powerful places, and no one dares to stop him. He can truly be called one of the most ideal sovereigns.
This is what the true supreme path looks like!
