In the 10,350th year of the Blue Star lunar calendar
, Lin Jiang's soul returned from the Heavenly Palace to the Mahayana Star. Counting the time on the Blue Star, he had been there for decades, but on the Mahayana Star, it was only a dozen years. The time on both sides was different.
"It seems that we have to set an interstellar time in the future, and we have to calculate it according to the Blue Star time,"
Lin Jiang thought about it and said to Cao Ying. A day on the Blue Star is 24 hours, but each planet is different. For example, a day on the Lingjing Star is 36 hours, while a day on the Mahayana Star is 100 hours. Lin Jiang is a little uncomfortable.
"This usage has existed for a long time, but there is no such concept. Look at the space battleships, there are dozens of clocks and calendars, corresponding to the time of each planet."
"Haha, I really don't care. These are all small things. However, this trip to the heaven is indeed very rewarding."
"Tell me, what did you gain?"
"Let me put it this way. If you simply understand it from the perspective of immortal cultivation civilization, there is no problem. One day in heaven is equal to one year on Mahayana Star. However, from a scientific point of view, there are many problems. Time and space are still the mainstream research directions of scientists. It's a pity that I'm not a scientist, otherwise I would definitely be obsessed with heaven,"
said Lin Jiang. What heaven shows should be very attractive to a scientist. The problem of space alone is enough for physicists and the like to rack their brains.
"But I think Liang Long doesn't care. He has only been there once."
"Liang Long is different. He knows himself. His strength is not strong among the immortals, so he doesn't touch these things. Do you believe that when he has enough strength, he may dare to dismantle the Heavenly Palace for research?"
"I believe this."
Cao Ying nodded. Liang Long did not dare to do things, but was willing and able to do it. Without this strength, he must have given up now.
"You go to meet the Hedao and the Demon King from Blue Star, and arrange for those who are at the peak of Hedao to return to Blue Star. I will go to see Liang Long."
Lin Jiang thought about it and said. In the past few decades, many Hedao appeared on Blue Star. They all came to Dacheng Star to guard, and those at the peak of Hedao had to be arranged to return to Blue Star for cultivation. This is a guarantee of strength, and they cannot play all their cards.
Just like Lin Jiang did not let the old brothers go to the battlefield for more than a thousand years. They not only saved their lives, but also ensured that the Taoist tradition of Blue Star would not be broken, which was equivalent to the role of the teaching team.
Lin Jiang went to find Liang Long. Liang Long was at the Dharma Institute on the Mahayana Star. Lin Jiang thought the name Dharma Institute was pretty good, so he kept it as a branch of the Psychic Research Institute.
Liang Long has been doing research and teaching students at the Dharma Institute over the years. A group of scientists on the Mahayana Star simply worshipped Liang Long and admired him.
"Is Elder Lin back from heaven?"
"Well, how far did your soul run?"
"About three to five thousand light years, wandering around,"
Liang Long said. He also had a soul wandering in the starry sky with a space carrier for hundreds of years, wandering thousands of light years.
"Haven't you found any planets with life?"
"No, didn't I send hundreds of coordinates to the Blue Star? Didn't they go to explore?"
"They went, but they haven't arrived yet. The speed is too slow. Now the detectors can reach about one tenth of the speed of light. The nearest coordinates are hundreds of light years away, and it will take thousands of years to get there."
"That's right, when you get to heaven, what do you want to ask?"
"What can you tell me? I have a lot of questions, but I don't know where to start,"
Lin Jiang said. Liang Long knew him well and knew that he would have a lot of questions after going to heaven.
"Then let me tell you what I think. First of all, I'm not sure whether the heaven is indeed our three-dimensional space or the four-dimensional space, but scientists' predictions about the four-dimensional space are basically wrong."
"I remember that scientists' speculations about the four-dimensional space include the part about spatial rules."
"Yes, basically wrong, not completely wrong, it's just that a blind cat catches a dead mouse. Some things cannot be described in words, just like the creatures in the two-dimensional world cannot describe our three-dimensional world."
"Then are we immortals considered creatures of the four-dimensional space
?" "No, we can only say that we have mastered the ability to enter and exit the four-dimensional space, but we know very little about the four-dimensional space like the heaven, don't we?"
"Yes, my guess is that the power of rules is actually the ability of the four-dimensional space, which is equivalent to the magic of immortal cultivators."
"I thought so too, so I was wondering if there are any natural four-dimensional creatures, such as indigenous immortals."
"I haven't heard of this. Immortals don't seem to live very long. Most of them died halfway through their lives,"
Lin Jiang said. He already knew that Li Canghai was considered to have lived a long time in the Heavenly Court, but he had only lived for a million years, and it was calculated in Blue Star time. It's not that there are no immortals who lived earlier than Li Canghai, but most of them died halfway through their lives. The rest are basically unfamiliar. They are the confidants of the Emperor of Heaven.
"In fact, you can test it. You and Cao Ying have a child in the Heavenly Court."
"Get out of here. Are you using me as an experiment?"
"It's not a loss."
"No, forget it. If you want to do it yourself, I've seen many female immortals in the Heavenly Court."
Lin Jiang said. The ratio of men to women in the Heavenly Court is quite disparate, about ten to one, but there are still many female immortals. After all, the total number is there.
"I'll forget it. Let me write you a written report of what I know, and try to explain it in plain language. Don't spread the news. We are too weak to the Heavenly Court."
"Okay, let's do it,"
Lin Jiang said. He also wanted to get some answers, otherwise he would feel uncomfortable. He was also afraid of getting stuck in a dead end.
·······
After Lin Jiang came back from the Heavenly Court, he soon went on a diplomatic mission to Taibai Star. This was not the first time he went on a diplomatic mission to Taibai Star.
Lin Jiang came once right after the war ended and sent a lot of supplies to Taibai Star. At that time, Taibai Star was the most in need of supplies. Lin Jiang still had to make more allies. He had to have more friends.
"Fellow Daoist Di"
"Fellow Daoist Lin, no, I should call you senior"
"I haven't been to Taibai Star for a long time. Taibai Star is very different now. The wounds of the war have been healed. Fellow Daoist Di has made an indelible contribution" "
Alas, the ruins of the war have been cleared, but the population has not recovered yet. This war, my Taibai Star is too miserable"
Fellow Daoist Di sighed and said. In the previous war, the population of Taibai Star lost more than 60%, and the loss of immortal cultivators was even greater, especially the masters above the Hedao level, who also lost more than half. This cannot be made up in a few decades.
Lin Jiang has nothing to say about this. What should be taught has been taught, such as how to stimulate fertility and so on. It's that Taibai Star's wounds are too serious.
Lin Jiang's mission this time is mainly to discuss the idea of offensive and defensive alliance. If Taibai Star is willing to cooperate further, then the flank safety of Dacheng Star will be guaranteed. Taibai Star is still the most powerful force in Tianbei Star Region.
Moreover, the immortals of Taibai Star are very powerful. Many planets in Tianbei Star Region were divided from Taibai Star. There are more than 100 immortals in Taibai Star camp.
There is no way for fellow Daoist to refuse the olive branch offered by Lin Jiang. Taibai Star is in need of various things now, and Lin Jiang can provide them. Anyone who refuses is a fool.
