Li Yao, Zhou Yifu, and Wei Qingqing were all in the state as if they had been hit by a high-speed crystal train. After half a minute of dizziness, Li Yao finally asked suspiciously, "Master Gui, you are a demon of the previous generation. Do you not hate the civilization of human beings? Do you really want the civilization of human beings and the civilization of demons to be passed on together? "
"I admit that the civilization of human beings and the civilization of demons are hostile to each other, but it does not mean that I am hostile to the civilization of human beings."
Holding his cane, Gui Suishou said unhurriedly, "Observed on the scale of billions of years, the war between our two civilizations is nothing more than two germs swallowing each other. One germ swallows the other germ. What's there to hate and hate?
"Besides, the 'Monument Plan' that I just described is just an idea. If we are to realize it, we will have to make thousands of breakthroughs in the fields of space studies, information studies, artificial intelligence, soul hibernation, and even space jumps!
"In the end, I will have to craft such a ring that can store tremendous information and transform countless experts into 'old grandpas'. I will also have to let those 'old grandpas' wake up healthily after billions of years of slumber in the ring with their normal memories, self-awareness, and thinking abilities!"
"Then, we will have to project the rings into the depths of the sea of stars to ensure that they will not be destroyed by cosmic storms, supernova storms, and black holes in the hundreds of millions of years to come!
"Think about it. How much technology will it take? The history researchers, or even the Blood Demon Sector alone, are certainly not enough to implement the plan!
"After all, artificial intelligence and space jump are the specialties of the Tian Yuan Realm and the Flying Star Sector!
"That's why I attended the meeting in person at the cost of my precious longevity. I hope that the technology and resources of the three Sectors can be gathered and the difficulties will be resolved so that the 'Monument Plan' can be realized!
"After all, the universe is too vast, and the time is too long. Once the tinders of our civilizations drift to the depths of the universe, they will absolutely be able to take root and sprout again in different time and space without interfering with each other, and we will never meet again, right? It's better to forget each other in the pugilistic world than to live in peace. This is probably another form of 'forgetting each other in the pugilistic world', hahahaha! "
Li Yao clicked his tongue and said, "Putting the technical difficulties aside, it's not going to be easy to find ten thousand 'old grandpas' who are willing to sleep for billions of years and who are 99% likely to never wake up, is it? We will not allow any form of coercion! "
Gui Suishou smiled and said, "Kid, it seems that you really don't know much about people's hearts. There's no need to force people to do this kind of thing. Once the news gets out, there will definitely be countless ghost cultivators scrambling to sign up. For example, the little girl beside you has already been moved, hasn't she?"
Li Yao was greatly surprised. He turned around, only to discover that Wei Qingqing was indeed in a trance. Her mind seemed to have crossed the river of time and flown to the deepest part of the sea of stars!
"Sister Qing Qing, don't tell me you want to be this' old grandpa '?"
Li Yao found it hard to believe and even felt his hair stand on end.
"If we are really desperate and about to be destroyed by the Imperium or the Holy League, and there is a one in ten thousand chance of success in terms of technology, why not?"
Wei Qingqing gradually became solemn and solemn. Her shoulders slightly lowered, as if she had shouldered a brand-new mission. "Perhaps Master Gui is right. We are no match for the Imperium or the Holy League right now, but in such a way, the tinder of our civilization will be preserved for billions of years so that it can take root and sprout again in a new time and environment!"
Li Yao frowned. "Then, isn't the sacrifice too great for these 'old grandpas'? That's billions of years we're talking about!"
"What's the big deal? Since it is' hibernation ', it will be as senseless as being completely dead, right?"
Wei Qingqing smiled. "Is there a difference between one year and a billion years? For this' old grandpa ', it is like sleeping. Infinite time will pass as soon as he closes his eyes. "
Li Yao was somewhat exasperated. "What if it fails? What if no civilization ever discovers the ring? "
"If it fails, it will be as good as dead. After all, the Federation has been destroyed. Cultivators like us are destined to die anyway. Does it matter how we die?"
Wei Qingqing said, not thinking it was a big deal.
Li Yao was rendered speechless again.
He had almost forgotten that Wei Qingqing, this seemingly weak little girl who was like a little orchid, had a courage and courage that did not match her petite body.
On the Grand Desolate Plateau, she had been bold enough to march forward against the furious beast tides when she had just graduated from college!
She was not scared of death at all!
"Li Yao, I am different from you."
Wei Qingqing smiled and said, "You are a gifted, distinguished genius who has become one of the two hundred most influential Yuanying in the three Sectors at such a young age. Everything you do will very likely affect the outcome of the war and the survival of our civilization right now.
"But what about me?
"I am just a common, low-level Cultivator. My talents are limited, and I don't have as many fortuitous encounters as you do. However hard I train myself, the Building Foundation Stage will be my limit!
"In this era, the influence of a Building Foundation Stage Cultivator on the Federation is minimal. The magnificent space war won't make much difference whether I am there or not.
"You don't have to comfort me. This is the truth. We all know it very well. For example, if the world we live in is a novel or a TV series, then you are the well-deserved protagonist, the center of all the spotlight, and people like me are the supporting characters, the existence that cheers for you."
"Although … you're right. Although I'm not very smart, and I don't have high computational ability or combat ability, and I don't seem to be important and not worth mentioning, I don't want to always cheer for you and watch you save the world!"
"I want to save the Federation and our civilization in my own way, too!"
Wei Qingqing's voice was higher and higher, and she was more and more determined. Her back, which was shouldering an invisible mission, stood straight again as she said solemnly, "Today, I am just an insignificant, insignificant person for our civilization.
"However, if there is really a way to preserve the essence of our civilization together with my remaining soul for billions of years, it will be discovered by a brand-new, ignorant civilization!
"Then, I will certainly do my best to fulfill the destiny of a 'guide' and guide the new civilization that is still in ignorance and darkness so that the fire of our civilization will leave ineffaceable traces in a brand-new time and space!
"I believe that this is probably the greatest contribution that I, an insignificant female teacher, can make to our civilization, right?"
Her words made Li Yao feel deep respect for Wei Qingqing again.
It also made him reexamine the seemingly absurd 'Old Grandpa Plan' from a brand-new perspective.
"I've read your files, my young friend Li Yao. You've been through a lot in the past ten years," Gui Suishou said with a smile.
Gui Suishou said with a smile, "I remember that you once encountered a marvelous ancient civilization named 'Blood Stripe Virus' on Iron Plateau in the Flying Star Sector. They tried to pass on their civilization through 'possession'.
"In fact, my 'Monument Plan' is somewhat similar to the possession of the Blood Stripe Virus' apocalypse.
"Perhaps, all civilizations have the same destination. Survival and reproduction are two instincts. When they are destined to perish, they will pay more attention to reproduction and inheritance!
"Birth, aging, sickness, and death are the laws of nature. Everybody, including you and me, will die. But as long as we send out our life seeds before we die, and we can even see our offspring being born and growing, death will not be such a terrible thing, right?
"What do you think, my young friend Li Yao? Will you support my proposal and push forward the 'Monument Plan' in the Yuanying Meeting?"
Li Yao was dazed for a moment. It was not until then that he realized that Gui Suishou had not talked to them for such a long time by chance but had specifically come to persuade him.
It did make sense. With the resources that he could mobilize and his influence in the three Sectors, he was rather special among the two hundred top-tier experts of the three Sectors.
For some of the large-scale plans that had a span of decades, even without the public resources of the three Sectors, he would be able to carry them out freely with the help of Skyfire, the Glorious Sunlight Group, and some of his friends in the Tian Yuan Realm!
No wonder Gui Suishou, a cunning old turtle who had lived more than eight hundred years, had come to him first after he woke up!
Of course, it was also the purpose of the 'Yuanying Meeting'.
The purpose of the meeting was to let all the Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators use their brains and speak freely in a high-intensity 'brainstorm'.
As long as the problems of the Imperium and the Holy League could be resolved, they could propose even the most absurd ideas. After they were proposed, everybody would discuss and study them. Those who had money would contribute, and those who had strength would contribute. They would figure out a way to implement the brainstorm into a real cosmic storm that would sweep across the universe!
"Young friend Li Yao, rest assured. Your support will not be in vain."
Although Gui Suishou was a bit arrogant because of his seniority, he was not an unreasonable man and understood the principle of mutual benefit. He said leisurely, "My ancestors have excavated a lot of valuable classics, files, and the coordinates of relics during their thousands of years of historical research. I can offer them all for exchange. I can even share my ancestral secret art, the Big Dream Tortoise Hibernation Art, with you.
"I know that, in order to explore more Sectors and build up the capability of the 'New Federation', you will have to undertake a long, long-distance space voyage in the next hundred years. During the voyage that will last decades, 'human hibernation' will be of paramount importance.
"But your 'human hibernation' technology right now is too crude and not worth mentioning at all!"
