In the 6185th year of the Xia calendar

, Lin Jiang woke up from seclusion. After the spiritual energy revived, everyone took turns to go into seclusion, but Lin Jiang was the only one who had been holding on. Cao Ying couldn't stand it anymore, so she forced Lin Jiang to go into seclusion, saying that she would be there to guard the place, and nothing would happen. Only then did Lin Jiang go into seclusion.

"I've spent a lot of precious medicines, and finally reached the middle stage of returning to the void. The next precious medicines can't be easily given to others."

Lin Jiang sighed. He didn't have many precious medicines left. The precious medicines brought by the sudden increase in spiritual energy were almost used up, and the new generation of spiritual medicines didn't grow that fast.

This was also because Lin Jiang was very generous before. More than a hundred people were all supported by him. They had woken up for decades, and almost everyone's cultivation had grown rapidly. Some had even crossed a great realm, but the price was that the precious medicines in his hands were quickly consumed.

After tidying up, Lin Jiang left the quiet room. Cao Ying came out after receiving the news. Sensing Lin Jiang's aura strengthening, he smiled and said, "See, I told you a long time ago that I would go into seclusion. You are multitasking, so your cultivation is bound to be slower."

"How is the outside world during my two years of seclusion?"

"No difference, it's all the same."

"That's good,"

Lin Jiang nodded, as long as the overall situation is stable.

"How is your side? When can you reach the late stage and break through to the Hedao?"

"It's almost impossible in a short time,"

Lin Jiang said. It takes hundreds of years to improve the cultivation of returning to the void. Do you think everyone is a genius like Yang Luo?

"It seems that I can't count on you. By the way, there will be an official celebration of a hundred years of cultivation next month. Will you participate?"

"No, it's boring,"

Lin Jiang said. Thinking carefully, it seems that this year is indeed the first hundred years since he announced his cultivation method. It's really fast. A hundred years have passed.

"If you don't go, I won't go either."

"Why don't you go? I remember you recruited a lot of disciples in the training academy."

"Those are students, not disciples,"

Cao Ying said. Students and disciples are different. Disciples have a personal relationship with their masters. Masters should treat disciples as children, and disciples should treat masters as parents. As for students, there are not so many rules.

"It's almost the same. They should have invited you."

"Yes, there are people pursuing me. Are you jealous?"

"Why would I want to eat that stuff? A group of little brats who are just over a hundred years old, why would I?"

"Hehe,"

Cao Ying smiled cunningly. If she plays a little more, she will see if you are jealous.

Lin Jiang didn't have time to joke with her. He came to the office and checked the documents he had been in seclusion for the past few years. Most of these documents were handled by artificial intelligence and the secretarial group, and a few were decided by Cao Ying. Lin Jiang's request before seclusion was to give all authority to Cao Ying, which was enough to show Lin Jiang's trust in Cao Ying.

All things, there is no right or wrong, are all decided according to some inertia, and there will be no mistakes in the overall situation.

"It seems that the independent cultivators are quite rich. All ten Jindan treasures have been exchanged."

"Hey, you don't know, the independent cultivators are also very chaotic. In the era of cultivating immortals, independent cultivators killed people and robbed treasures. Do you think it's gone now? I know of no less than a thousand fraud cases among immortal cultivators, and hundreds of cases of murder and robbery. They are all the result of their internal strife."

Cao Ying said. If they accumulate wealth honestly, no one will be able to afford Jindan treasures in another hundred years. It is because they are dishonest that they have the opportunity.

"The world has never changed, and so have people's hearts. How many Jindan have appeared among the independent cultivators?"

"Five, a result of two to one, which is stronger than our internal situation. The current third and fourth generations of cultivators are beginning to corrupt."

Cao Ying said. Over the past hundred years, the third and fourth generations of cultivators have gradually grown up, and the quality of the entire group has declined.

"The interest class has no mobility, and the overall degeneration is very normal, but it doesn't matter, we can sort it out when the time comes,"

Lin Jiang said. It took a hundred years to degenerate, which is already very slow. People are lazy and greedy by nature. The elders and ancestors laid the foundation, and those who can still remain diligent are a minority after all. Most people choose to eat, drink and have fun by using the foundation of their predecessors.

"Those casual cultivators are difficult to recruit. People who are used to freedom cannot stand constraints."

"It doesn't matter. The casual cultivators have never caused any trouble."

"That's not necessarily true. Look at the files behind. The side effects of evil methods and quick success methods have appeared. In recent years, the number of cases of immortal cultivators has skyrocketed, and many problems have arisen,"

Cao Ying said. Lin Jiang retrieved the relevant files and checked them.

Lin Jiang banned the evil methods and quick success methods at the official level, but still failed to cut them off. They are still spreading crazily in secret. The evil methods are not so bad. They are indeed not spread too much, because they are banned severely. Once they are discovered, they will be severely cracked down.

However, quick success methods are spreading crazily. Many people would rather pay a heavy price in the future to live a good life for a few decades. When these quick success methods reach a certain level, they will cause great damage to the body of the cultivator, which makes them unscrupulous and brings great challenges to public security.

The Huaxia Federation was fine, but the situation in other countries was not good. They lacked high-level immortal cultivators to take charge. Those immortal cultivators who had achieved success quickly were about the same strength as them. They fought each other and caused great harm to ordinary people, which led to fierce conflicts between ordinary people and immortal cultivators.

"I am tired,"

Lin Jiang said. He felt very tired even when managing a country. This was also the reason why Lin Jiang had secretly controlled Qingyun and Zhou Liao but did not take them down directly. If he managed the whole world, he felt that it would cost him his life.

"If you are tired, don't worry about so many things. It is enough to manage Huaxia well. Billions of people are enough to realize your ideals,"

Cao Ying said. She did not force Lin Jiang to do anything else. It would not make much sense for them to manage a few more countries.

·······

When the thought of giving up came up, the world would be wide .

Lin Jiang no longer cared about so many things and immediately felt that the burden on his shoulders was much lighter. On the second day after leaving the retreat, Lin Jiang brought Cao Ying and others to the Psychic Research Institute.

Lin Jiang is a frequent visitor to the Psychic Research Institute. Every time he comes, the people in the Psychic Research Institute are very happy because they can get more funds from Lin Jiang.

"Sir"

"I heard that you have conquered space technology?"

"I guess so"

"What do you mean?"

"In fact, we just reproduced the storage bag technology of the Xiuxian era with modern technology. We have not yet understood the true principle of space, and we cannot create a space that can accommodate living people,"

said Cao Wang. He is a compound scientific and technological talent and is also studying space technology. Lin Jiang saw the news, but they deliberately reported it in order to get more funds.

"Is it very difficult?"

"Very high. If you want to explain it in scientific language, we haven't studied even one percent of the things of Xiuxian civilization. The simplest example is the Dao pattern. Whether it is a rune pattern or a formation pattern, we all call it Dao pattern. Why these patterns have special energy, we don't know it,"

said Cao Wang. Some runes look ordinary, just some lines, but after different combinations, they have different powers. He can't figure it out.

"I don't know either. Don't look at me."

"Me too."

Cao Wang looked at Cao Ying, who shook his head. Lin Jiang also shook his head. He Dao didn't know, let alone him.

"We don't understand it either."

"Okay, so what's your space technology like now? Give me an idea."

"It's about being able to manufacture various types of storage tools, and it can also be refined into fighter jets and space battleships. In this way, space battleships can carry a lot of energy fuel, enough to support space battleships out of the solar system, but it's just going out for a stroll, and we don't know if we can come back." "

Have you reached that speed?"

"No, now we have developed a magic weapon-level engine, which can reach up to Mach 350. It will be difficult to increase it further. We have solved the material problem, but we still lack energy."

"Refine a few storage tools for me, and the internal space must be large,"

said Lin Jiang. The storage bag on his body is also large, but he wants to change the shape, such as making it into a storage ring, storage bracelet, etc.

"That's OK. The material of the storage tool is a special ore. Elder Lin, you can find the ore yourself, and I can refine it for you."

"What generation has the space battleship reached?"

"The third generation has been formed, and we are trying the real space mothership."

"After the technology of the third generation of space battleships matures, give me a backup copy, and the space mothership."

Lin Jiang said, these are really good things, Lin Jiang also hopes to collect some, maybe there will be real substantial effects.

"If Elder Lin gives money, everything will be fine."

Cao Wang said that it was no problem. If Lin Jiang gave money, he would have everything he wanted.

Lin Jiang also said that it was no problem. He was not short of money or resources, and it was normal to spend some money to customize something.

When he came to the Psychic Research Institute, he would not only look at this place. Lin Jiang went to other project teams one after another. After a hundred years of expansion, the Psychic Research Institute has now become a behemoth. There are hundreds of research institutes under its name, spread across dozens of cities in China, and even some branches abroad. It is very large and covers all aspects.

The scientific and technological strength of the Psychic Energy Research Institute is also the best in the world today, representing the highest level of science and technology in the world, and many good things are produced every year.

Of course, the investment in the Psychic Energy Research Institute is also very terrifying. Not counting resources such as spiritual stones, the Chinese government alone invests trillions of dollars every year, not to mention the support of many financial groups.

Lin Jiang also attaches great importance to the research institute and has planted many confidants in it. There are even more than a dozen awakened immortal cultivators in it. Every time they come, Lin Jiang will treat them equally.
