In the 6311th year of the Xia calendar, the second batch of space carriers went on a long-distance space voyage . In

the 6316th year of the Xia calendar, the third batch of space carriers set off

. The same year, the first batch of space carriers returned. All 3,000 astronauts returned safely and brought back extremely precious cosmic data, especially some space experiments, which were the first time.

At this time, astronomical telescopes were also extremely advanced and could observe the very far universe, but the observations in Shenzhou and the observations at the edge of the solar system were different.

In the 6326th year of the Xia calendar, after a lapse of ten years, the fourth batch of space carriers set off. Each batch of space carriers had different purposes for long-distance voyages, including drawing space route maps, which were extremely precious, just like the sea charts drawn during the great geographical discoveries.

After the fourth batch of space carriers set off, the fifth batch of space carriers were also launched for research and development. The fifth batch will be a brand-new space carrier, strictly speaking, the fourth generation of space carriers, with faster speed and higher safety.

Time came to the 6340th year of the Xia calendar. The fifth batch of space carriers set out. One month before departure, Lin Jiang and Cao Ying announced that they would be in seclusion and transferred their confidants to key positions to guard.

"This is the lunar base."

Cao Ying and Lin Jiang took the teleportation array and came to the lunar base. The two walked outside the lunar base. As far as they could see, it was a wasteland, with nothing but sand and gravel.

"This is the lunar base. Haven't we seen it a long time ago?"

"What we have seen are breakthroughs and videos. How can it be the same as seeing it in person?"

"How does it feel?"

"Not very good. There is no life. It is too empty. By the way, with the current technology, can't the moon be turned into a habitable planet?" "No

, there is no breakthrough in ecosystem technology. It is impossible to turn the entire moon into a huge ecosystem. Moreover, the environment of the moon does not allow it. There is a scientific reason why life can exist on the blue planet."

Lin Jiang said. The blue planet is the planet where the Xiuxian world is located. It was named by Lin Jiang. In addition, Venus and Jupiter are also the same. This solar system is not the same as that solar system.

Ecosystem technology is not fully mature now. The lunar base has existed for more than a hundred years, but it can exist because of the continuous support of the blue star. If there is no support, problems will arise in a few decades.

To transform a planet into a habitable planet, innate conditions are required, such as the distance from the sun. It is not good if it is too far or too close. There are also gravity problems. In short, it is very advanced and Lin Jiang does not understand it very well.

"What about this plan? Cape No. 3 may not be able to..."

"Hush, let's talk about it later."

Lin Jiang shook his head, and Cao Ying quickly closed her mouth. She looked at the blue star in front of her. It looked very close, but it was actually very far away.

Lin Jiang and others stayed in the lunar base for about half a month, waiting for the new crew to adapt. There were 5,000 crew members in this batch, of which only more than 1,000 had made more than three voyages. A considerable number of them were newcomers, but as the training system was completed, their training time would become shorter and shorter.

Half a month later, the space carrier set sail. After leaving the moon, it began to accelerate continuously. The final speed will be increased to about 400 Mach. 400 Mach is not the limit, but generally speaking, it will not increase any more, because exceeding this speed will accelerate the loss of the space carrier.

When the space carrier approaches some celestial bodies, it will borrow the gravity of the celestial bodies and the speed will be faster. The specific speed is still unknown and will be arranged by the captain.

The space carrier is extremely large, and with the gravity system, it is no different from the blue planet at ordinary times.

"It's so beautiful"

Passing by a certain planet, Cao Ying saw a layer of satellites outside the planet, which looked very beautiful. This is a scenery that cannot be seen on the blue planet.

"When space technology breaks through again and finds a habitable planet, we can carry out real space travel"

"Do you really say there are aliens?"

"Yes, Yang Luo is one, she is definitely not from our planet"

Lin Jiang said, in fact, he is also an alien, but he doesn't know how to say it. If one day, he has a chance, he may go back to take a look.

However, the memory of that blue planet is not much in Lin Jiang's mind. After all, he only lived there for more than 20 years, but here, he has lived for thousands of years.

········

On the space carrier, not everyone has to be on duty. Normally, only about one-third of the people are needed, and the rest of the people will take a normal vacation or even sleep in the sleeping cabin. However, except for the old crew members, no one else will sleep. After all, this is a rare life experience.

Others live a normal life, go to work and go home, and can also practice. There is plenty of spiritual energy on the space carrier, which is provided by spiritual stones.

Lin Jiang and Cao Ying also quickly entered the practice. After all, the beauty of space will get boring if you see it too much.

Three years later, the space carrier arrived at the edge of the solar system. It was still billions of kilometers away from the sun, but the temperature here was much higher than that of the blue planet. The

space carrier continued to fly forward. Their ultimate goal was a planet they named Cape No. 3. This planet was located in the center of another star system and was theoretically a habitable planet. Of course, they did not find any signs of life and death.

In the eighth year, they arrived at Cape No. 3 and landed successfully. There was already a planet base on Cape No. 3, which was made of materials left over from the previous two space voyages.

This time, they brought more materials to expand the base. The long-term plan was to build it into the scale of a lunar base before the tenth voyage, which could support operation for more than 30 years without any material replenishment.

And this was not the final plan. The final plan was to turn this place into a relay station, where space carriers could be produced in the future, and then conduct further space exploration.

"People below the Jindan stage are not allowed to leave the space carrier for the time being. There is a threat of cosmic rays in Cape No. 3..."

"Engineers, put on heavy space suits and get off the spacecraft..."

"Commanders, control the robots..."

The captain kept broadcasting in the space carrier, and 5,000 crew members were mobilized. In addition to Lin Jiang and the other person, there were dozens of immortal cultivators above the Jindan stage. They could move freely, but they were not allowed to leave for too long.

Hundreds of engineers got off the space carrier in space suits, and then operated thousands of robots with the commanders in the space carrier to start working.

Half a month later, the base expansion project was completed, mainly because there was a protective shield outside to avoid some damage from cosmic rays.

After the expansion project was completed, the internal factory began, mainly some internal decoration, such as making warehouses and dormitories.

"Two ancestors, I will be very busy next time. The interior is a mess now. I also need to arrange the outer defense project, I also need to arrange the surveillance project of Cape No. 3 space, I also need to..." "

Captain, I understand what you mean. You do your thing. I won't go down for the time being. I will go down in half a month. It will be enough for you to be busy."

"Half a month is enough. Thank you for your understanding, two ancestors."

"Go ahead."

"Yes."

After sending the captain away, Lin Jiang and Cao Ying looked at each other, and then Lin Jiang took control of the space carrier.

They did not stay in the space carrier, but flew directly to the other end of Cape No. 3.

"Uncle, have you brought everything?"

"I have brought everything, and the substitute has been refined, no problem."

"Uncle, is it really okay for us to do this? Can we really deceive the Heavenly Dao?"

"To be honest, I don't know. All the content about the Heavenly Dao and the immortals is inferred. Whether it is true or not, it cannot be verified. We can only take a gamble."

Lin Jiang said. Many years ago, after Feng Jiu appeared, Lin Jiang had been inferring what Feng Jiu said.

Becoming an immortal is a scam since ancient times.

Feng Jiu is a person who makes up for the Heavenly Dao by combining her body with the Dao, so Lin Jiang speculated that immortals may have some kind of connection with the Heavenly Dao, or even that immortals are the Heavenly Dao and the Heavenly Dao is immortals.

This speculation has no theoretical basis, but Lin Jiang can't think of other possibilities, and other speculations are more likely to be overturned.

So Lin Jiang carefully planned this voyage. On Blue Star, if Lin Jiang's speculation is true, then no matter what they say or do, they are under the surveillance of the Heavenly Dao, so leaving Blue Star for who knows how many billions of kilometers away, it should be out of his surveillance range.

Refining a clone here for future use, maybe it will be a life-saving preparation in the end.

"I have another question. After refining the clone, do you return to Blue Star with your real body or your clone?"

Cao Ying said. The clone is different from the incarnation. The incarnation is condensed by their spiritual energy and soul, and needs to be constantly replenished with spiritual energy, otherwise it will dissipate.

The clones are made from external materials. These materials are indestructible for thousands of years. The soul resides in them, which is not much different from the real body. It is difficult for people to find it. If it is done well, it can even be undetectable.

The high-ranking officials of Yunzhou destroyed their bodies in Qingzhou in the past. They used this method and finally sat down to die. It was also because of the end of their lifespan. Otherwise, they could continue to survive.

"Guess"

Lin Jiang smiled slightly and gave a mysterious expression. Can such a thing be said?
