Cultivation: Being Immortal Chapter 907
Previously on Cultivation: Being Immortal...
The Blue Star Xia calendar, 9,320 years, Xuanque Star.
Xuanque Star is also a remote planet in the Tiannan Star Domain, located over 1,500 light-years from Blue Star, and it is one of the eleven known life planets in the Tiannan Star Domain.
Standing on Xuanque Star and looking at the night sky, the view is completely different from that of Blue Star, filled with many unknown stars. The astronomer accompanying Lin Jiang was so excited that they couldn’t find the words to express it.
As an astronomer, being able to gaze at the night sky from different planets is the happiest thing in their lives. They feel a deep sense of career satisfaction. When they return to Blue Star, they will be known as the greatest astronomers in history.
"Do you see that star in the sky? It is a life planet that does not belong to the Tiannan Star Domain; it should be called the Tianbei Star Domain. A celestial being from the Tiannan Star Domain visited it a thousand years ago."
"The Heavenly Emperor names things even more casually than I do!"
Following Cao Ying’s words, Lin Jiang smiled, wondering if there would also be a Tianxi and Tiandong Star Domain in the future.
"Are you trying to say there will also be Tianxi and Tiandong Star Domain?"
"Ah ha ha, so you know that too!"
"There is no Tianxi and Tiandong Star Domain, but there are Tianyuan and Tianhua Star Domain.""Um, nice name, the Heavenly Emperor really knows how to name things."
"Stop being modest, the Tianbei Star Domain is much stronger than Tiannan, and it’s also much larger. The data we had before was inaccurate and needs constant updating. The size of the Tianbei Star Domain might be several thousand light-years."
"It’s not considered large."
Lin Jiang quietly said, the real Milky Way is actually about one hundred thousand light-years big.
"It is not considered large. In the past few years, while traveling with you, I have spoken with many immortals. The Heavenly Court and the Buddhist sect are actually expanding continuously, and their territories are constantly increasing."
"I know."
"But there are many things you still don’t know, like the forces of the Demon Lord and Demon Ancestor."
"Demon cultivators?"
"The demon cultivators are not part of the human race, but a special kind of being, somewhat like elves. I can’t say for sure because I have never seen them. The Demon Ancestor’s power is simple; it is made up of the demon race. However, the strength of the demon race is not weaker than that of the Heavenly Court. It is said that the Demon Ancestor of the demon race has lived for an incredibly long time, probably more than ten million years."
"Within understanding."
"Then there are things you do not understand. I heard from other immortals that there are immortals from the Heavenly Court who are responsible for exploring life planets. They have found planets where no one has ever set foot, but there are humans on those planets, and they have their own cultivation traditions. The key point is that no immortal has taken control of them."
"Are you saying that outside the Heavenly Court, or even before the Heavenly Court was established, these traditions already existed and spread throughout the universe?"
"Did you not see what some experts from Blue Star said? The language and writing of Blue Star are not much different from Lingyun Star, and they are very similar to those of Lingyun Star and Canglan Star. You can say that Lingyun once came from the Heavenly Court, but what about the Buddhist sect? The writing of the Buddhist sect is almost the same as ours, and only the language is a bit different due to environmental changes. Moreover, some planets had civilizations even before the Heavenly Court intervened…"
"I understand your point now; please stop talking."
Lin Jiang waved his hand. In fact, many pieces of evidence suggest that the question of human origins is even older than the Heavenly Court. The Heavenly Court has existed for at least over ten million years, and many things are deeply unsettling upon reflection.
········
After traveling for several decades, Lin Jiang was on his way back. Leaving Xuanque Star, he met Ming’an on Canglan Star, where Ming’an was preparing to embark on a mission to Tianbei Star Domain.
The plan for the cross-boundary teleportation array was proposed by Li Canghai and reported to the Heavenly Emperor. Its purpose is to strengthen the connections between the six Star Domains under the Heavenly Court and to increase defense power, and many immortals agreed as well.
However, while the immortals agreed, Ming’an still needs to negotiate the details, such as the construction costs, future maintenance expenses, and the costs to activate it. There are many things waiting for Ming’an.
"Taoist Friend Ming’an, it is a long way to Ren Chong, Ming’an will have a hard time."
"Sigh, it is just a life of hard work, but this is the last thing I will do for Canglan Star before I face my tribulation."
"Then I should congratulate Taoist Friend Ming’an in advance."
"Taoist Friend Lin has also overcome his tribulation for many years, I wish Taoist Friend Lin will become an immortal soon."
The two exchanged polite words, and then Ming’an talked about Lin Jiang renting a place with Zilan Star, stating that Canglan Star could also rent space to Blue Star.
However, Lin Jiang has not made a clear commitment yet. How to establish the alien base still requires experts from Blue Star to investigate and design. What Lin Jiang says does not have the final say; he must respect science.
After moving back to Blue Star, Liang Long also returned. Everything was in order at Lingyun Star, and he left it to the governor appointed by Huaxia of Blue Star to manage the details.
"Ancestor Lin, I am afraid I will be away from Blue Star for a while."
"Traveling through the stars?"
"Pretty much, to be more precise, it’s to see if I can find the end of the universe."
"The Soul Fragment can go."
"Yes, it is indeed the Soul Fragment that will go, but I will transfer most of my power into the Soul Fragment. If there is a battle in the short term, I may not be able to fight."
"That’s fine, Blue Star will not get involved in any battles in the short term."
Lin Jiang said, he had already spoken with Ming’an and Jian Xing; they would not attack Lingqing Star for now, and they wouldn’t take action, so there would be no battles in the Tiannan Star Domain for the time being. As for other Star Domains, they would not easily send them into action.
"That’s good to hear, thank you for your support, Ancestor Lin. Also, I need to build a new Space Mother Ship and some related things."
"Huaxia will fully support you, the only request is to record the data along the way and then give it to Huaxia’s Spiritual Energy Research Institute."
"That’s no problem. I actually know that I won’t find the end of the universe. I just want to wander among the stars for a while."
Liang Long said, "The scientists of Blue Star predict that the universe is several trillion light-years wide. Even if Liang Long were a celestial being, finishing this journey would be almost impossible because it would take too long, and no one has that kind of patience. Moreover, they also speculate that the universe is continuously expanding, so there might not even be an end."
Liang Long just wants to fulfill some of the wishes in his heart. He has many dreams. He once wanted to be the top scientist of Blue Star and even thought about becoming an interstellar pirate. Among these many dreams, some are impossible to achieve, while others have a chance.
Taking advantage of the quiet time on Blue Star, he wants to go out for a walk.
"I also want to wander among the stars someday, but unfortunately, I can’t be as carefree as you. I have too many worries."
Lin Jiang said that he always admired and envied Liang Long. He lives life so freely.
Liang Long is very determined and capable. He truly lives for himself, not for anyone else. To outsiders, he may seem cold-hearted, yet many still envy him.
"Thank you, Ancestor Lin."
Liang Long had nothing much to say, just a simple thank you. Although he thought Lin Jiang was often indecisive and didn’t respect that, he admitted that Lin Jiang is a very good superior and partner. He is generous to those on his team, and that’s enough.
