Chapter 884: Chapter 721: 3 Sovereigns and 5 Emperors
Tianxiang State Mansion.
Gu Jinlai’s incarnation returned to position.
Compared to the solemn discussions at the Xuanhuang Hall, the atmosphere at the State Lord Mansion is undoubtedly much more relaxed.
"Scholar Gu’s understanding of the nuclear reactor path is exceptionally brilliant. I would like to invite Scholar Gu to join my laboratory; how about we research the fourth generation nuclear reactor together?"
Star Lord Tian Xiang extended the invitation, "We set the user standard for this generation reactor at entry-level Golden Immortal. Even if the first tester is a Third-Rank Golden Immortal, it would still be acceptable. We will first create it, and then optimize step by step. If we can optimize it to the point that one day a Level 9 Mechanic can also use it, it would be an unprecedented success."
"Fourth generation reactor? A reactor with the Devouring Dao as its core?"
Gu Jinlai said.
Previously, Gu Jinlai felt that the leap between the fourth generation and the third generation reactors was too vast.
Now he realized that from the beginning, the goal of the Xuanhuang Immortal Dynasty is likely the fourth generation reactor.
Black Hole Reactor.
Gu Jinlai considered his Great Sun Core.
The Great Sun Eternal Method has been operating until now, still a golden skill that has yet to break into orange, which corresponds to the Domain of Great Dao Golden Immortal, Immortal Golden Immortal, Daoist Ancestor.
And the next form of the Great Sun Core derived from the Great Sun Eternal Method, what could it be?
White Dwarf Star, Neutron Star, Black Hole!
Both White Dwarf Star and Neutron Star result from stars reaching the late stage of evolution. When stars finish their long life cycle, low and medium mass stars will become a white dwarf.
Large and supermassive stars will lead to a Supernova Explosion. How a star evolves after a supernova explosion depends on the mass of the remaining star core. When the star core’s mass reaches 1.4 times that of the Sun, its gravity will be sufficient to compress the atoms inside the star core to the extent that electrons and protons combine into neutrons, transforming the star core into a neutron star.
Beyond that, it becomes a black hole.
White Dwarf Star, Neutron Star, Black Hole!
It depends on the mass before the star collapses.
Gu Jinlai concentrated his divine sense on the characteristic of Supernova Explosion.
Next, he turned his gaze to the Great Sun Core concentrated by the Great Sun Eternal Method.
"If I dare to gamble, perhaps I can utilize the trait of the Supernova Explosion to complete the transformation, making the Great Sun Core transform..."
Gu Jinlai thought in his heart.
After a moment, he still suppressed this idea.
Firstly, he does not believe his Great Sun Core’s mass is large enough to transform into a black hole.
He estimated the gravity strength he controlled and the nuclear power strength, then compared the structure of the Great Sun Core. Once he lets the Great Sun Core enter the Supernova Explosion state, the possibility of transforming into a neutron star is greater than into a black hole.
Secondly...
He is not confident that he can handle the impact of a supernova explosion in his current state.
He has a premonition that when the Great Sun Core within his body can truly transform into a black hole, the battle power he could unleash would reach the peak and extreme among Great Dao Golden Immortals.
It must be known that even though his divine sense ability reaches Golden Immortal Fifth Rank, it does not necessarily mean he has corresponding strength.
If he leaves the Xuanhuang Immortal Dynasty to the outside world, he can at most rely on his divine sense advantage to exert ordinary Golden Immortal battle power.
Even if Xuanyuan Ancestor from the Profound Immortal Realm is resurrected, he may not be able to contend with him.
"Using the Devouring Dao as the reactor core, this statement is indeed accurate. We do plan to do so."
Star Lord Tian Xiang said, "The Evil God has not yet evolved the power to degrade the Devouring Dao; if we can build a reactor with the Devouring Dao as its core, the mechanics could even possess the power to threaten the Evil God."
Gu Jinlai listened and felt somewhat perplexed. However, he couldn’t help but ask, "The Heart of the Cosmic’s defense line gathers many surrounding civilizations, and there should be many civilizations possessing exquisite technological skills, right? Why do we still need us to conduct research?"
"Indeed, some civilizations that do not follow the path of cultivation have mastered powerful technological skills, and some civilizations possess technology strong enough to capture immortals for research. But all technological skills become meaningless when confronted with the power at the level of the Dao."
Star Lord Tian Xiang continued, "Not to mention Immortal Golden Immortals, even Great Dao Golden Immortals can ignore more than ninety percent of technological forces."
As he spoke, he seemed to recall something, "In the Heart of the Cosmic defense line, such civilizations have always only played an auxiliary role, cooperating with other powerful civilizations. If the two mix, they can also form a new system."
"Dao level..."
Gu Jinlai thought of the pervasive mystery of the Devouring Dao...
This power, which practically equates to gravity at the cosmic level, is indeed hard to resist technologically.
Unless, that technological civilization becomes powerful enough to intervene in the entire cosmic operation and even modify the cosmic rules.
"In fact, the Xuanhuang Immortal Dynasty has undergone significant changes over thousands of years, and these changes all stem from the patronage of some civilizations within the Heart of the Cosmic. Even the nuclear reactor technology we currently use comes from those civilizations. What we have done in these thousands of years is to learn these technologies and improve them under the influence of the Devouring Dao environment of our Xuanhuang Immortal Dynasty."
Star Lord Tian Xiang said.
Gu Jinlai listened and nodded in understanding.
Learning also takes time.
Especially knowledge that has a significant divergence in thinking direction.
It’s like taking a biological spaceship capable of flying at one-tenth the speed of light to Blue Star for the Blue Star civilization’s Human Clan to study. Due to differing directions, for the Blue Star civilization to develop biological technology from scratch to create such a spaceship, it would conservatively take thousands of years.
"A thousand years ago, Emperor Bai issued a summoner decree to our Xuanhuang Immortal Dynasty. These mechanics will likely set foot on the Heart of the Universe battlefield in the future..."
Star Lord Tian Xiang again revealed a secret, "On that battlefield, the Great Dao interlaces, and interference grows the deeper within, affecting more heavily. If mechanics do not master enough Divine Sense usage methods, enabling the Divine Sense Ability to activate the reactor amid Great Dao interference, they might not even qualify to showcase their power."
"Emperor Bai!?"
Emperor Bai among the Three Emperors and Five Sovereigns!?
"A thousand years ago?"
Gu Jinlai had a faint understanding of why the Xuanhuang Immortal Dynasty suddenly intensified its efforts in casting Immortal Cave Heaven a thousand years ago.
"So, the Three Emperors and Five Sovereigns are still battling on the Heart of the Universe defense line?"
"Correct."
Star Lord Tian Xiang nodded, "Great Powers at the deepest place of the Heart of the Cosmic seal the Evil God, confronting the Dao Ancestor, seeking to resolve the death crisis brought by the Dao Ancestor, hoping to solve the problem once and for all. Currently, those leading the Heart of the Universe defense line against the Evil God include His Majesty and other top Immortals."
"Immortal Venerable then..."
As Gu Jinlai spoke, he couldn’t help but ask, "What is the state of the defense line of the Heart of the Universe?"
"Defense line of the Heart of the Universe..."
Star Lord Tian Xiang looked at Gu Jinlai, pondering seemingly to organize his words.
After a while, he slowly said, "The defense line of the Heart of the Cosmic is just a general term. It can actually be divided into eighteen regions, or war zones."
As he spoke, Star Lord Tian Xiang stretched out a hand, a piece of starlight manifesting in his palm, exactly like the starry cosmic shown previously of the ’Milky Way.’
And in the ’Silver Heart’ position, eighteen regions clearly emerged.
"Six Realms, Four Seas, Eight Desolates."
Gu Jinlai gazed at these starlights, naturally assimilating the information contained within.
These eighteen forces, or eighteen war zones, are like a Dyson sphere covering a Constant Star, enveloping this Heart of the Cosmic and sealing within the Evil God and Divine Spirits captured by the Heart of the Cosmic.
"Our Xuanhuang Star Domain is located in the Firewood Star Sea within the Four Seas. This Star Sea is governed by the eight Sovereigns of the Three Emperors and Five Sovereigns and various Immortal Venerables."
Star Lord Tian Xiang said, "As the direct forces of the Three Emperors and Five Sovereigns, our Xuanhuang Immortal Dynasty and Xuanhuang Star Domain are summoned by Their Majesties. We shall also strive to train sufficient qualified mechanics, cast enough mecha, and send them to the New Fire Star Sea to battle."
Gu Jinlai looked at the starry sky projected by Star Lord Tian Xiang, slightly furrowing his brows.
Not for other reasons, but...
Too vast.
This starry sky was unimaginably vast.
"Should there still be other civilizations under the rule of the Three Emperors and Five Sovereigns?"
Gu Jinlai said, "Not marked on the Star Map?"
"The Evil God, and some beings turning themselves into Divine Spirits fearing the Dao Ancestor’s cleansing, constantly hide in the dark, trying to strike each Star Domain. Although they can’t form a climate, due to elite forces from various realms being allocated to the Heart of the Cosmic, once they start stirring trouble, the destruction brought is still significant. The Evil God is somewhat manageable; in their incarnation form, they’re heavily degraded, needing to cease for some time after destroying one or two worlds, but the Divine Spirits... pose a significant threat to rear civilizations..."
Star Lord Tian Xiang said, "Since Divine Spirits have not completed degradation, they are essentially still Immortal Golden Immortals. In other words, they can completely disguise themselves as a cultivator civilization. In that case, if we recklessly mark all civilizations on the Star Map, wouldn’t we be indicating to those Divine Spirits which worlds are convenient for them to invade?"
Gu Jinlai realized and nodded.
This behavior is also a form of protection for other civilizations.
"Of course, there is another reason..."
Star Lord Tian Xiang spoke with a somewhat uncertain tone, "It’s said that in a long-past era, this universe experienced an incredibly fierce war, a fire even more intense than the Divine Spirits’ war, a fire that destroyed most civilizations, leading this current starry sky to appear much more vast than we anticipated."
"War from long ago?"
Gu Jinlai’s heart stirred, "How long ago?"
"A long time, so long that many civilizations no longer have records related to it. It’s said that in that era, there were beings called ’Saints,’ whose status was comparable even to the Dao Ancestor’s..."
Star Lord Tian Xiang shook his head while speaking, "However, similar legends are somewhat dubious, plus the threat of the Dao Ancestor is like a sword hanging above for Immortal Golden Immortals. Everyone fears it like a tiger, leading to similar fantasies as reasonable; but anyway, those claimed beings comparable to the Dao Ancestor have been proven time and again, when the Dao Ancestor sincerely wants to clean them, they have no room for resistance. Just listen to it as a story."
As he spoke, he waved his hand, "How about it? Want to join me in studying the fourth generation of the nuclear reactor?"
"Of course."
Gu Jinlai gathered his Divine Sense.
He also wanted to prepare by learning the technology of the fourth generation nuclear reactor to eventually transform the Great Sun Core into a Black Hole.
"Delighted to do so."
