Chapter 2392: Forty Million Year Plan

」The Ten-Character Immortal Scripture, the Immortal Dao Universal Constant Experience Formula of Ten Characters — that's how it is. 」

「The path ahead is indeed difficult. 」

Jiang Ding silently comprehended this moment's Immortal Scripture, calculating the Heavenly Dao.

Calculation efficiency increased by about fifty percent compared to the eleven-character period, and the precision of the Immortal Dao Universal Constant calculation improved by another fifty-nine decimal places, thus strength grew synchronously, becoming about sixty to seventy percent stronger than before.

This is the limit under the Ancient Emperor of the Forbidden Zone.

Going further, into the realm of the Nine-Character Immortal Scripture, Jiang Ding slightly deduced it, and a sharp pain shot through his divine soul — the computational load was too great; even with the current Great Sun Immortal-Mortal Sword Soul integrated with the Great Dream Sword Realm, it could not be achieved.

This is still just pure theoretical calculation!

If true Immortal Scripture experimentation were to begin, the consumption of heavenly treasures, earthly riches, manpower, and material resources would be an astronomically terrifying figure; even if all the resources seized by the Tai Shang Da Ri Dao Ting, the Qilin Immortal Dynasty, the Wan Fa Immortal Dynasty, and the Ji Yan Immortal Dynasty — the three great Immortal Dynasties — were fully invested, it would still be utterly insufficient for a single Immortal Scripture experiment!

Not even one percent of the basic resources would be enough!

It's too terrifying!

This is due to insufficient material foundation, let alone other factors, causing the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang's heart to tremble, giving rise to a strong sense of panic.

Calculating this way, the time required to accumulate enough resources for a single Nine-Character Immortal Scripture experiment is — ten billion years!

Ten billion years!

The Ancient Emperor has been dead for who knows how many years.

Could it be that we've taken the wrong path? Is the Forbidden Zone Ancient Emperor's path a dead end?

A sense of fear arose in the heart of the current Human Emperor.

「No! 」

「It's not like this, not like this — 」

Jiang Ding used his sword heart to slash away the sudden trace of heart demon, and said to himself: 「This calculation result is wrong; the current Nine-Character Immortal Scripture experimental model I hold is inefficient and full of errors, just like a Qi cultivation practitioner with mixed magical power, weak divine soul, and a body full of hidden injuries trying to advance to Foundation Establishment. 」

「For such a Qi cultivation practitioner to advance to Foundation Establishment, the only hope is to possess resources ten to a hundred times greater than an ordinary Qi cultivation practitioner. 」

「My current research on the Nine-Character Immortal Scripture is still very crude, similar to a Qi cultivation practitioner with a shattered foundation. 」

「Under these circumstances, it's only natural that the required resources would be enormous. 」

「I was too anxious. 」

Jiang Ding took a deep breath, suppressing the chaotic thoughts in his heart.

Before the path to immortality, he has always been a child, just like when he studied at the Immortal Sect, filled with ignorance about many things.

「Your Majesty, please do not worry. 」

The Fusang Empress touched the head of the blue-clad youth.

Due to the bond between the Ancient Emperor and the Empress, she instantly felt the strong emotional shift in the Ancient Emperor's heart, knowing he was in distress.

「Hmm. 」

「I am not worried. 」

Jiang Ding revealed a hint of a smile, saying: 「A new Immortal Dao standard measure has already been born; next, the Dao Ting's Immortal Dao science and technology will usher in great development and breakthroughs, with chaos arising in transformation — soft persimmon, you will have to work hard from now on, and must firmly control the Dao Ting's Immortal Dao scientific development. 」

The Ten-Character Immortal Scripture has already been promulgated, simultaneously published in the Immortal Sect and Dao Ting journals.

The era of great development in Immortal Dao science has arrived again; many past patents will lose their effect, many companies representing top-tier Immortal Dao technology will go bankrupt, and the Dao Ting will undergo a great reshuffle.

Only those who constantly strive, with exceptional talent and fortune, can stand at the forefront of the era's tide.

Immortal Dao social productivity will surge once again, and the Immortal Dao financial scale will be greatly increased — perhaps, the financial fortune Dao will give birth to an Emperor-realm cultivator.

「Everything is entrusted to your servant, Your Majesty. 」

「Such transformation, your servant has already experienced many times. 」

The Fusang Empress spoke gently.

The just-calmed Wu Jin Kong Kong, which had been peaceful for ten thousand years, surged again — not due to external enemies, but from internal self-reform.

Under a wise ruler, it is both fortunate and unfortunate.

The misfortune lies precisely in the fact that under a wise ruler, one can never hope to lie flat, must always remain tense, must always be in turmoil — this is extremely unfriendly to those corrupt old bureaucrats.

However, for those with great ambition, single-mindedly seeking the Dao, and possessing peerless talent and temperament among cultivators, this is an omnipresent opportunity.

——

Numerous Dao Ting Emperor-realm cultivators and quasi-Emperors once again became busy, competing in the developing Immortal Dao science** stream, rushing to register new patents, developing techniques and industrial technologies from the Ten-Character Immortal Scripture.

All these minute technological breakthroughs accumulate bit by bit, bit by bit.

Once accumulated to the limit, it becomes the state where the Nine-Character Immortal Scripture experimental model is perfected and applicable.

The turmoil brought by such Immortal Dao technological breakthroughs lasted for two hundred thousand years, after which it began to ease, no longer seeing major Immortal Dao technological breakthroughs every year.

At this moment, the Human Emperor convened the first industry-wide academic conference after the Ten-Character Immortal Scripture breakthrough.

Tai Shang Da Ri Tian Shu.

Numerous Emperor-realm cultivators and quasi-Emperors gathered; among the quasi-Emperor cultivators, several had fluctuating auras, faintly showing signs of breakthrough, often drawing envious glances from surrounding quasi-Emperors, their hearts yearning, their hearts even more fervent.

Only in this era will the birth of Emperor-realm cultivators be so frequent!

This means far surpassing the opportunities of the Wan Fa, Ji Yan, and Qilin Immortal Dynasties; in this era, the probability of cultivators advancing to Emperor-realm is far higher than in those dynasties.

Amid the expectant gazes of many powerful figures, a figure appeared in the center, casually found a spot to sit cross-legged, like a wandering youth chatting idly by the roadside, without any awe or sternness of rank.

「Greetings, Sword Master! 」

「Long time no see, are you well? 」

One after another, Emperor-realm cultivators and quasi-Emperors gathered around, sitting cross-legged beside the blue-clad youth, like a group of students chattering around their tutor.

「Please sit. 」

「I am well. 」

Jiang Ding waved his hand, dispensed with pleasantries, and said: 「This conference is solemnly convened mainly to prepare for launching the Nine-Character Immortal Scripture development super-project; this super-project is estimated to last forty million years, covering agriculture, industry, education, etc., involving multiple sub-items, as an eternal project for all ages. 」

The Nine-Character Immortal Scripture super-project requires enormous resources, thus must focus investment on agriculture and industry, to accumulate.

This project directly concerns whether, when the Golden Great Age arrives, the living beings of heaven and earth will still remember that we of this generation once existed, and will still remember what happened in our era.

This super-project begins now.

The Human Emperor paused.

The entire Heavenly Pivot fell silent in an instant.

At this moment, even the hearts of Emperor Realm cultivators were filled with utter shock.

The super-project of the immortal dynasty that has lasted forty million years!

Know that even the maximum lifespan of an Emperor Realm cultivator is no more than ten million years, let alone the three million years they have already lived since the moment of their ascension to Emperor Realm, surviving on the Eight Tribulations Supreme and the Quasi-Emperor, leaving them with an actual remaining lifespan of no more than seven million years, which is still far short of ten million years.

Forty million years is enough to see off six generations of Emperor Realm cultivators.
