In the 10,250th year of the Blue Star lunar calendar,
after three or four hundred years of vigorous development, the Mahayana Star is different from the past. Not only have the troops lost in the last war been replenished, but there are also more talented disciples, which can be said to be a large number of talents.
In addition to the vigorous development of Buddhist cultivation, the scientific and technological strength of the Mahayana Star has also made a leap forward. According to the classification standards of the Blue Star, the Mahayana Star now has the level of Industry 4.0. Various technologies have matured, and their space battleships have also been updated to the third generation.
"Quantum communication, nuclear fusion, and mixed energy compression and purification technology are technical problems that must be solved within a hundred years. Solve these three problems, and the Buddhist world will be unimpeded..."
At the high-level meeting of the Dharma Academy of the Mahayana Star, Lu Junyu said to the top scientists of the Mahayana Star that they have broken through the technology of cross-border teleportation arrays, but unlike the Blue Star, the compression and purification technology of mixed energy has not yet been broken through, so they can only use spiritual energy, which has caused great waste and spiritual energy loss.
If this continues, Dacheng Star will not be able to bear it. Dacheng Star's spiritual stone resources are also limited. If they are constantly consumed in the starry sky, Dacheng Star will sooner or later become a dead star.
"In terms of space projects, the next goal of the exploration spacecraft is to reach one twentieth of the speed of light..."
"Space battleships, the third generation of space battleships must be strengthened. Our current attack methods are still too simple, and the particle cannon technology is not mature enough..."
Lu Junyu continued. These are all old problems. He also asked for this a hundred years ago, but a hundred years later, these problems have not been overcome.
Some insignificant technologies can be easily stolen from Blue Star by the Buddhist sect, and Blue Star is also happy to let them steal them. However, the top technology like the cross-border teleportation array is strictly confidential on Blue Star. The Buddhist sect cannot steal it at all. If it cannot steal it, it can only study it by itself, but it is not that easy. The technology
of Blue Star is accumulated bit by bit over thousands of years by hundreds of thousands of scientists, tens of millions of engineers, and more than a dozen generations. It is not easy for the Buddhist sect to overtake on the curve.
So far, none of the key technologies coveted by Buddhism have been broken through. Even the third-generation space battleships of Buddhism are not as good as those eliminated and retired by Blue Star.
After the conference, Lu Junyu met Huikong and Ci'en, who greeted Lu Junyu warmly.
"Junyu, many talented scientists have joined the Dharma Academy in the past two years. Do you think the technology you just mentioned can be broken through?"
Ci'en said. In recent years, they have paid too much for the development of science and technology. They have also learned from Blue Star to establish a modern education system. Although it is not as perfect as Blue Star, it is a very terrible progress for Buddhism, and many geniuses have also appeared among them.
"It's difficult. Those people are indeed very powerful and smart, but they are still inexperienced. It will take at least one or two hundred years for them to grow to the point where they can stand on their own."
"It will take so long?"
"Yes, and it depends on luck. People's intelligence and talent have a time limit. Many geniuses are full of spiritual energy when they are young, but when they reach a certain age, this spiritual energy will disappear. Only those who can maintain it are true geniuses. I have read some information about Blue Star. Blue Star compares some geniuses to monsters, but these monster-like geniuses often need decades of precipitation before they can make major scientific breakthroughs."
"This is troublesome."
"Master, what trouble?"
"Junyu, I am not happy with you either. In the last battle in the unknown star field, Buddhism suffered heavy losses, and thousands of Buddhist disciples above the level of Arhat were killed. This was a great shame for Buddhism. Now, hundreds of years have passed, and Buddhism has roughly recovered its strength. Buddhism is preparing to attack the Heavenly Court, or to be more precise, the Tianyuan Star Field, and to turn all the life planets in the Tianyuan Star Field into the Buddhist world.
And we are responsible for containing the immortal gates in the Tianbei Star Field. As you know, the immortal gates in the Tianbei Star Field are affected by the Blue Star, and they also have a large number of technological weapons."
Ci'en said that the Buddhist sect and Taibai Star had different development paths. Taibai Star could buy weapons, and Blue Star's high-tech weapons were sold to them, but the Buddhist sect had to develop on its own, so Ci'en was very worried that they couldn't even compete with Taibai Star.
"Master, we finally had a few hundred years of peace, are we going to fight again?"
Lu Junyu frowned, somewhat disgusted with war, because war means destruction.
"Junyu, our Buddhist sect is also a system of immortal cultivators. As you know, immortal cultivators go against the will of heaven and fight for resources all their lives. There are only so many resources in the world. If Heaven takes more, we will take less. For the sake of Buddhism, we can only do this"
"Junyu, don't think too much. Becoming a true Buddha is not perfect. Unless there are only Buddhism or immortals left in this world, there will be no war breaking out"
"Yes, Master, what do you want me to do?"
"Be prepared for war. The mass production of the third-generation space battleships must be accelerated. The last time Blue Star dispatched thousands of battleships, we must also have thousands of battleships. I know our strength is far behind theirs, so I don't force our battleships to win. I just hope that our battleships can contain their battleships",
said Ci'en. He was still very rational. He knew that Buddhism's hundreds of years of development could not compare to others' thousands of years. So he only hoped to be able to contain them, not to defeat them. The ones who can really defeat the other side still have to be the Buddhist cultivators.
"Master, with our current resources, it is probably not an easy task to build thousands of space battleships."
"Don't worry, other planets will help us, we will have helpers."
"In this case, I estimate that it will take 20 years to complete the construction, plus debugging and so on, 25 years."
Lu Junyu said, 25 years is about right, by then all the resources of Mahayana Star will be gathered, so there may be great sacrifices, but it is also within their calculations.
Ci'en nodded, 25 years is still within his acceptable range.

"The confidence of the Buddhist sect has expanded."
Returning to his residence, Lu Junyu rubbed his temples and said in his heart.
Lu Junyu didn't know where the confidence of the Buddhist sect came from, and dared to compete head-on with Blue Star in terms of technological weapons. There is an obvious generation gap in the strength of the two sides. This is what Lu Junyu told Ci'en and others several times, not to mention many other factors, such as experience. The Buddhist sect has no experience in using space battleships for space warfare.
"But what I have to do is wait for the next order from Blue Star. Should I take advantage of this opportunity to completely destroy the Buddhist sect in Tianbei Star Region? Will Blue Star be able to occupy a planet in Tianbei Star Region again?"
Lu Junyu continued to think. He had secretly sent this message back to Blue Star. In the space battle, Blue Star would definitely win.
But now the main question is which way to win, a small win or a big win, or to completely destroy the Buddhist sect's territory in Tianbei Star Region. But in this way, can Blue Star get any benefits, such as occupying a planet in Tianbei Star Region?
After thinking for a long time, Lu Junyu shook his head and threw away these distracting thoughts. These were not what he should worry about. He only needed to do his duty.
Soon after, Lu Junyu began to explode the production capacity in Dacheng Star, and invested all the resources in people's livelihood into military production. Production lines for producing space battleships appeared one after another, and space battleships were constantly produced.
The natural victims were ordinary people. Apart from other things, the most basic electricity was also in short supply on Mahayana Star. Residents' electricity was cut off from time to time, not to mention other things.
This arms race was very harmful to ordinary people. The contradictions and resentments within Mahayana Star were further intensified. The Buddhist sect was well aware of this. A large number of Buddhist masters emerged from the Buddhist temples and were assigned to various cities to suppress possible rebellions at any time.
