40,000 Years of Cultivation

"Don't forget, there is also the multiverse, there are floods, and the earth."

Scarlet Heart Demon said, "Each of these goals is enough to inspire human civilization to continue to struggle for 10,000 years."

"Too far, these goals are too far away."

Li Yaodao said, "Even the most basic item of'crossing the black wall', without the intervention of external forces and the technological explosion of chance, I am afraid that it may not be completed in five thousand years.

"People are lazy. When you know that all tasks have been completed, all immediate threats no longer exist, and the next task will take at least five thousand years to see the results. The results are not necessarily correct. The next threat may be billions of light-years away, or even so far away that it can’t be measured by “light-years”. Will you still work hard and burn everything to fight?

"The residents of Guangming City are not carrying the great mission of'revitalizing human civilization', but this mission is too magnificent, too remote and too heavy. It is so remote and heavy that they don't know how to start. Was it gradually given up and forgotten by them?

"Human nature is such that it cannot be exacting. It is impossible to ask everyone to give up the happiness of this world and pursue the hope that will only be found after thousands of years and tens of thousands of years."

"Born in sorrow and dying of happiness; born in ecstasy and dying of sorrow, both individuals and civilizations are the same."

When the Scarlet Heart Demon finished speaking, he suddenly laughed, "So, this is the meaning of our'devil', especially the demon like me who likes killing and destroying. At first, you were extremely resistant to me, but carefully Think about it, if there is never killing and destruction, and the method and meaning of fighting are unknown, what would human civilization be like?"

Li Yao was stunned for a long time, staring blankly at Guangming City residents who were clumsy like a big balloon with balloons tied around their waists in mid-air. While giggling, they beat each other with cakes, and some made their pets. The dog is riding behind him, it is almost impossible to tell who is whose pet, and there are some relatives, friends or strangers. The funny pictures of them are taken down and sent to the three-dimensional three-dimensional glass curtain wall of the high-rise building or even the bulkhead. It was played on the light curtain, for people to comment on, and to present flowers and add various decorations to them. It seemed to be very proud, and it looked like a cola.

Li Yao was chilling for no reason.

"Although I try my best to prevent every war between the stars and seas and hope that peace will come forever, what you said... seems to make sense. I really didn't think about what permanent peace would bring to human civilization."

In the depths of Li Yao's soul, there were very complicated and profound ripples. He murmured, "Suddenly I can understand a little bit of what the Nuwa clan did back then.

"You know, although we are opposed to the Pangu tribe’s practice of being self-defeating, shutting up the country, and being a tortoise, the Nuwa tribe’s practice of releasing emotions and desires to the extreme, eagerly rushing out of the Pangu universe even if they fight a civil war, It seems, seems to be too radical.

"The Pangu people's worries are not necessarily unreasonable. The star sea outside the Pangu universe is too vast, the multiverse is too dark, and the enemies behind the flood tide are too powerful. If you rush to act without being fully prepared, there is indeed the possibility of self-destruction.

"Why can't the Nuwa people be patient, wait for thousands or even 10,000 years, when the flood tide gradually recedes, the conditions are more mature, and then in a relatively peaceful way, they will seize the leadership of the Pangu Civilization Alliance and embark on a new expedition? Isn’t this better?

"In the past, when we discussed this issue with Long Yangjun and Bai Boss, we all believed that the Nuwa people were voices from outside the Pangu universe, and those civilization’s “dead” swallowed up by the flood tide called deeply. Attract, fall into the quagmire of fanaticism, cannot extricate itself.

"But today, seeing the mental outlook and ways of living of the residents of Guangming City, I suddenly had new ideas.

"Perhaps, the Nuwas also knew that their behavior was too impulsive, too radical, too risky, and hopeless. Once they fail, they will be forever.

"But they have no choice.

"The growth and continuation of a civilization has cycles. The growth of a civilization is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. There is absolutely no principle of'steady development for ten thousand years.'

"If the Pangu Civilization Alliance follows the ideas of some people from the Pangu tribe, it will hide in the Pangu universe and hibernate peacefully for 10,000, 50,000 or even 100,000 years. It will never be possible to maintain the most advanced technology 100,000 years ago. The level and positive, enterprising spirit will only become like a resident of Guangming City, a white and fat poor bug, a physical adult, and a spiritual baby!

"A civilization has no internal and external troubles, or it will take tens of thousands of years for internal and external troubles to come, and it will always be perished. The Nuwa tribe is awakened to this truth, so knowing that the preparations have not been completed, they have to risk everything. Go out and even start a civil war to "wake up" some compatriots and remind them not to forget their mission!"

"This guess is very interesting."

The Scarlet Heart Demon said, "There is no possibility of a step-by-step and smooth journey in the evolution of any civilization. Many times, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, they tend to go to the tiger mountains, and they have to face the abyss and make the'most thrilling leap' and jump over. , Civilization continues and rises to the next level; falling into the abyss or not daring to jump, the result is the same, civilization is dying out in an instant or gradually, and it’s just the difference between death sooner or later.

"Yes, I originally thought that we still have thousands of years or even tens of thousands of years, and we can develop slowly, form expeditionary forces in a hurry, and wait for ten thousand years before exploring Outland."

Li Yao said, "But now think about it, if the'Federation, Empire, and Holy League resolve the conflicts, the Pangu Universe Unity' will cost a thousand years, and the'form an expeditionary force and break through the black wall' will cost ten thousand. In the middle of this year, the seemingly calm nine thousand years without any threat, how will human civilization develop?

"Will those new generations of human beings who are born carefree and full of food all the time have the unique crisis consciousness of the'old mankind' that we tempered in these years of war?

"Can they understand the meaning of conspiracy, betrayal, blood, cruelty, extinction, sacrifice and dedication...and so on?

"Can they understand the mission of human civilization and why we have to rush out of the black wall to face unpredictable danger?

"They are willing to devote their entire lives and all their happiness to a million years before they see the results, and the results are most likely to be the grand plan of extinction?

"If one day Hong Chao really smashes the black wall and invades the Pangu universe, will these humans 10,000 years later use chain saw swords and arrow guns to greet it, or will they spread their arms like the residents of Guangming City. Welcome it with flowers and cakes?"

"and so--"

Scarlet Heart Demon said, "The Nuwas of the past thought the same way as you, thinking that the long wait would only consume the will of all their compatriots and erode their most precious souls. In order to awaken the compatriots, they had to rush out and talk about it!

"Even if there is only one starship rushing out, even if it leaves the mark of'Pangu universe intelligent life' in the multiverse beyond the black wall, it may be detected by Hong Chao, then the entire Pangu Civilization Alliance will not To retreat, we can only put all wisdom, courage, fire of life, and infinite resources into the grand plan of "Expedition to Outland".

"Ha, I suddenly discovered that Boss Bai was probably thinking this way.

"You know, long before the truth of the'multiverse' was fully realized, he was determined to rush out single-handedly and go all over the four-dimensional, five-dimensional, six-seven-eight-dimensional universe.

"At first glance, his thoughts are very reckless, a little ignorant, and he doesn't care what kind of catastrophic consequences he will bring to the people of the Pangu universe if he is exposed-don't forget, stay here. People, and his most beloved son!

"Is it just arrogant and stupid? I don't think so.

"Boss Bai is the'King of Twin Star Thieves' who has swallowed the remnant soul of Yan Xinjian. His profound insight into human nature is not much different than Jintu. Perhaps, he has already deduced that once human civilization loses its threat and opponent, What will it degenerate into?

"Therefore, he has to rush out at all costs, not only to realize his dream of the'strongest star thief in the multiverse', but also to find new opponents for human civilization. New threats are enough to inspire our deepest courage. And wisdom, go to crazy evolving, crazy swallowing, crazy and powerful new missions!"

"Too exaggerated?"

Li Yao said, "Did you make it so mysterious?"

"Maybe, maybe not, but even if Boss Bai didn't think of this, you should think about it seriously and don't let the entire Pangu universe become like it was on the Eternal Bright."

The Scarlet Heart Demon said, "Anyway, we have to explore the earth, we have to rush out anyway!"

"I, I don't know."

Li Yao wanted to scratch his head very hard, "I don’t want to grow up, act too hastily, and go against the laws of evolution; but I don’t want to watch human civilization lose its enterprising spirit and sense of mission, soak in mediocre honey, and continue to degenerate and feel uncomfortable. know……"

"Damn!"

The Scarlet Heart Demon interrupted him, "Why do you guys who pretend to be decent people always such mothers-in-laws, hesitate, and have to—"

Li Yao said, "I have to be that thing, and I have to set up an archway, right?"

"what?"

Scarlet Heart Demon said, "Why are you willing to say this to yourself?"

"Anyway, if I don't say it, you will say it too."

Li Yao said, "Such an important decision cannot be controlled by my own opinion. At that time, I will still listen to my wife's opinion, hand it over to the parliamentary democratic decision, and even come to a referendum or something-everyone is going to recite it together. Who is it? Don't blame anyone, right?"

"It makes sense, so let's concentrate first and catch the puppet king——Lv Qingchen.

The Scarlet Heart Demon said, "I also want to hear Lu Qingchen's opinions and see how he plans for the future of human civilization in his virtual world and solves these problems. Since Lu Qingchen has set up his lair here If it is not a coincidence, there must be a profound study of these issues, what do you think?"
