Corresponding to the booming sales of cultivation methods, the robot products from the crab people civilization were also selling well, and the supply could not meet the demand.
About more than a year ago, since they began to export high-intelligence robot pets to Earth and received favorable reviews from heavyweight merchants, they began to increase exports and quickly replaced many pet positions in the previous pet market.
There was no need to worry about eating, drinking, sleeping, vaccinations, home destruction, low consumption, no need to buy expensive pet food, and they could enjoy the process of stroking cats, dogs, and birds.
Cats and dogs, which were basically pure consumers and destroyers in the past, could also serve as guide dogs, pick up deliveries, clean the house, call the police, give first aid, and so on.
The problem of stray pets that had existed for a long time had naturally disappeared with the development of technology, just like the problem of food and clothing.
Now, the foreign trade association of the crab people was discussing the issue of exporting high-intelligence robots for civilian use with Earthlings, but it had not been approved yet.
This was because everyone was worried that there would be ethical issues. Intelligent cats and dogs were not an issue, after all, intelligent dogs and cats were often shown in movies and television works.
However, once intelligent robots comparable to humans were introduced, many problems would surface.
However, the civilian version was not allowed, but the military version was immediately introduced, with additional conditions of transferring technology and production lines.
As for the goods that the crab people needed, it was naturally a variety of cultivation methods and items.
In this regard, they were like Earthlings decades ago, toddlers.
However, at this time, there was still a different voice.
In the Land of Heritage, at the Cultivators Assembly.
"Those who are not of our race must have different intentions. We must block the cultivation trade with the crab people, or else we'll be cultivating our own competitors, "a Caucasian powerhouse said vehemently.
"Isolation will only lead to degeneration. The future is an open world, and Earth is embracing the entire universe. Now that we're exporting cultivation techniques, it's a good chance to promote our technical standards. You Westerners used to be the most familiar with this," an Asian powerhouse retorted.
Uh, everyone looked at each other. Why did the situation seem to be reversed? All along, didn't they say that Asians were the most conservative and Caucasians the most open?
However, everyone present was an elite powerhouse, and they had former international experts as a think tank, so they quickly came up with a solution.
Referring to the previous trade standards, some technologies and products were restricted, while others were open.
Fully anthropomorphic intelligent robots were prohibited from being imported, but semi-anthropomorphic home care robots were allowed to be imported.
Of course, the so-called intelligence was still a kind of weak intelligence. It was just that its algorithms and computing power greatly exceeded the current technological level of mankind.
These crab people had already invented the basic version of a practical quantum computer. Based on this foundation, intelligent programs could be developed to a very high level.
The development of human technology often started in one place and then spread to the whole world through communication.
Now, it was just a change to the universe, to find more civilizations, and then exchange more science and technology. This was another strategic goal.
After discussing the issue of foreign trade with the crab people, it was time for free communication. Dozens of powerhouses began to discuss freely.
A black powerhouse said, "I received a piece of news from a secret channel. Someone is secretly working on an interstellar transmigration plan."
"Interstellar Travel Plan? What the hell is that? "Everyone looked at each other.
"It's like this. There are hundreds of Pond-level cultivators who are already able to live in space. Coupled with the opening of the Milky Way Highway, they're collecting technology and resources, preparing to escape to another planet similar to Earth. By cloning humans, they'll build a cultivation base to satisfy their own cultivation resource needs …" The black powerhouse shook his head and sighed.
"Where did you hear this news?" Ren Ruofeng's face tightened. He did not know about this news.
Sure enough, as the saying goes, the devil rises ten. Even with the Spiritual Nets Above Snares Below and the chip management technology, Pond-level powerhouses had the right to be exempted from the chip, which left a loophole for them.
"Oh, it's from one of my bloodline clansmen who happened to join the interstellar travel organization. When he was cultivating, I sensed it through my bloodline. This fellow is a descendant that I value very much, but he didn't even take the initiative to inform me. This shows how attractive this plan is to them. "There was a hint of anger in the black powerhouse's tone.
"They're trying to learn from the previous migrants, but it's a lower version. However, compared to the migrants controlled by the Upper Realm, they have the ability to freely allocate cultivation resources. Especially in the current cultivation market, you only need a large amount of magical energy points to buy a variety of goods, and there's even a perfect reincarnation service. No wonder these people are tempted. "Ren Ruofeng said with a headache.
The human heart was complicated, and everyone had their own plans. Even if the human community was established, with the easing of the external environment, different groups would immediately split due to different interests and standpoints.
Obviously, this group of people who were preparing to engage in interstellar travel was going to disregard ethics and morality, and use technology to create clones and exploit clones.
This kind of thing was clearly reflected in sci-fi movies in the past, and now it was finally happening in reality …
After the black powerhouse finished speaking, the entire Cultivators Assembly fell into silence. From time to time, some people's eyes lit up, as if they were very tempted.
In the face of power and longevity, what was ethics and morality? The lives of ordinary people were nothing, let alone clones.
In today's society, magical energy points were money, and it was even more tempting than money.
Other than the legendary "true love", it could buy almost everything. At least, money could not buy longevity. In the past, no matter how rich a person was, no matter how meticulous he was with his calculations, he could not live past two hundred years old.
Now, if one's cultivation qualifications were not enough, with a billion magical energy points and some connections, one could ask the Great Bodhisattva for a perfect reincarnation, and obtain an extremely high cultivation qualification.
Of course, this price was now higher because of the rapid increase in magical energy production. It seemed to be 1.5 billion, or even 3 billion magical energy points. It seemed that the Bodhisattva also knew how to raise the price …
In the past, considering ethical issues, cultivators would rather take a detour and look for the Great Venerable Dragon God's River of Blood to create newborns instead of relying on mass cloning, just to prevent this kind of problem.
After all, humans born in the River of Blood had a more noble bloodline, so they did not have to worry about being used as tools.
However, the concept of human cloning, which was born with the color of tools, was about to become a reality.
Vitality Transformation Device, human cloning, all-purpose bacteria, and the Milky Way Highway … The maturity of many basic technologies was enough for powerhouses to have the ambition of interstellar travel, opening sub-bases, and building a slave empire.
"What we need to do now is to block these technologies to prevent them from being used by those with ulterior motives, especially the Milky Way Highway. We must tighten the checks and prohibit private crossings. All storage artifacts must be strictly inspected." Ren Ruofeng finally gave a stalling tactic.
This problem was destined to be impossible to completely solve, because it was going against the incomparably huge benefits. Just like the three poisons that accompanied human history, the only time and place they could disappear was also for a short period of time.
The other cultivation powerhouses looked at each other and nodded in agreement. Of course, no one would object in public, but no one could guarantee what they would do in private.
When cultivation techniques and evil technology were combined, the energy that erupted would be unimaginable.
As for this black powerhouse, he might not have good intentions by exposing this matter. It was more likely that he was testing or stirring up trouble.
Ren Ruofeng thought silently.
