Indeed, Chu Ge knew that in the tens of thousands of years of history of the earth's civilization, the progress of science and technology often brought equality to people - before the appearance of guns, knights with helmets and armor were invincible on the battlefield, and a knight could kill dozens of farmers with dung forks holding their heads and rats, thus firmly occupying a dominant position.

The advent of muskets put an end to all this, and even a young and foolish farmer, with a little training, could kill a knight who had learned martial arts since childhood and was equipped with the best armor with a cheap projectile.

In front of the wave of steel forged by science and technology, the hierarchy of individuals seems to have lost its meaning.

However, Chu Ge thought of the words of "guide" and "colonel" again.

Over the past millennium, the development of science and technology has helped to bring people closer together.

But with the discovery of psionic energy, the birth of gene editing and even nanorobot technology, all kinds of "superhumans" have been born one after another, and if this development continues, will the progress of science and technology in the next thousand years instead widen the gap between humans and make the level of individuals important again?

That's an interesting question.

But it's not something that Professor Zheng can answer.

Professor Zheng only told Chu Ge that when cultivating, you can pay proper attention to cell activity and other indicators, but when it comes to the battlefield, there is no need to pay too much attention to these, any "combat effectiveness" is all false.

It's like when students are in school, of course, they have to pay attention to scores and ratings, but when they really get to the bottom of society, the higher the score, the more powerful.

There is no way to cultivate immortals, most of the immortal cultivators pay attention to hand-to-hand combat, even if they rely on magic weapons to compete, they are often simple magic weapons such as flying swords, and there are few concepts of coordinated operations, large corps operations and even integrated sea, air and space battles, and the level of an individual can determine everything.

But on Earth, how can you judge which is stronger or weaker, a fighter pilot who has reached the level of "Deep Awakener", and a fire control officer who has reached the level of "First Awakener"?

Or, a singer at the level of "Final Awakened", her singing voice can touch the hearts of thousands of listeners, so that everyone can fight with the same enemy and fight to the end - how much is such a singer worth "combat power"?

In the case of unorganized and undisciplined, ten awakened people of the same level may not be able to beat one immortal cultivator.

However, under the constraints of high discipline and organization, the 10,000 awakened people who condensed into a steel fortress will definitely be able to beat 10,000 immortal cultivators of the same level to the ground - this is the self-confidence that a scientific and technological civilization should have.

Professor Zheng also said that within the various levels of the Awakened, they are no longer subdivided, but there are three honorary titles, which are difficult to obtain.

One of them is called "pinnacle level", and being able to obtain this title means that the awakened person has cultivated to the pinnacle of a certain field, mastered all the skills, and touched the limit.

The second is called "perfection", and to obtain this title, it is necessary not only to master all the skills in a certain field, but also to present a perfect state in all the skills.

The third is called "Ultimate", which means that the Awakened not only shows a perfect state in all the skills of the field, but also breaks through the limits and makes unprecedented explorations in the field, greatly expanding the depth and breadth of the field.

Whether it is the first awakened, the deeply enlightened, the final awakened or the superconscious, they all have their own "peak, perfection and ultimate", and the peak, perfection, and ultimate beginner are often more powerful than the average deep awakened - even more so in combat, even if the strength is slightly weaker, but the former can completely play the latter to death.

Therefore, the official highly encourages the Awakened to continue to explore more uses of psionic energy and more methods of cultivation, bravely enter the realm of the ancients, and reach the "peak, perfection and ultimate".

The information about psionic energy, the other world, and the awakened was really endless for three days and three nights, Chu Ge, Shi Meng, and the little palace master threw out one question after another, and each answer was so amazing that they couldn't believe it, and before they knew it, time flew by, and the three class hours were so exhausted.

If you want to know more, you should take a course like "Intermediate Psionic Studies".

However, these courses are not only expensive, but also have certain restrictions, and you must reach a two-star club or higher to be eligible for subscription.

Chu Ge is a two-star gold card member, but if you think about it carefully, listening to these things now is nothing more than a story like a fantasy, listening to it is fresh, and it will not help solve the problem in front of you.

Leaving the classroom, Shi Meng was going to do strength training.

Chu Ge originally wanted to go with Shi Meng, but when he saw that the little palace master was thoughtful and full of concern, his heart moved and he stayed.

The two of them walked through the silver-colored tents, and the eyes of the little palace master were full of confusion.

Chu Ge scratched his head and said: "Don't you still think about those things just now, let me tell you, it's better to believe in books than to have no books, these bad old men are very bad, and they will make up some fanciful lies to deceive people, and last time there was an old man who made eye exercises into "Brain Stimulation" to deceive me, what Professor Zheng said just now may not be all the truth - didn't you listen to what he said himself, one after another, they are all 'hypotheses'!" ”

"No, I just think the people on the earth are very interesting."

The little palace master smiled and said, "In the immortal cultivation world, we have about the sun, moon and stars, the flood war, the origin of humanity, and the origin of the ghosts...... Naturally, there are explanations for these problems, but all sects and factions insist that their own explanations are true, and they are natural and unquestionable truths, while other sects and sects are naturally all fallacies and heresies!

"Everyone fights back and forth, refuses to give in to each other, and even fights each other, forming a deep feud in the sea of blood, but no one can say where these 'truths' come from and how to verify them.

"And these 'experts and scholars' on your earth, throwing out one 'hypothesis' after another, as if honestly saying, 'I don't know, I'm guessing casually, nine times out of ten are false, everyone listens to it', it's really interesting."

Chu Ge thought for a while and said, "Guessing is guessing, but it's not 'random guessing', there is always some scientific basis." ”

"Science, what the hell is it?"

The master of the small palace said, "When I first came to the earth, I have been pondering, this place where the aura is so thin is like the eight rings and nine rings of the immortal cultivation world, and the divine powers of the immortal cultivators can't be exerted at all, but why can the mortals here create such a brilliant city, and also have powerful weapons comparable to magic weapons, for a few months, it sounds like 'science', but what is science?"

"To this day, I have a slight understanding that science is 'knowing is knowing, and not knowing is not knowing', right?"

Since he said this, Chu Ge took the opportunity to ask: "Little Palace Master, did you know about the things that Professor Zheng said just now, in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, have you ever studied issues such as the origin of human beings?" ”

The little palace master looked at Chu Ge deeply, pondered for a long time, and said honestly: "What kind of artificial intelligence, nanorobots and the like, I don't understand very well, in the immortal cultivation world, it seems that no one has studied deeply, where does the 'machine spirit' come from, and how can the 'puppet' do its own thing."

"However, the secrets of the rise of the human race, of course, are being studied by all major sects, but it's a pity that these secrets are buried deep in the inner ring, and it is difficult for people in the outer ring to get close."

"The inner ring, the outer ring, and the eight rings and the ninth ring you just mentioned, what is it, is your world really a huge ring?" Chu Ge asked curiously.

"The world of cultivating immortals is very large, no one can see its whole picture clearly, only know that we may live in the form of a ring, dotted islands, although the name is 'island', there are thousands of miles in radius, rich in products, densely populated, not inferior to your world, and the islands are not the ocean, but the fog."

The little palace master said, "The gray fog that envelops us is like a fluffy feather labyrinth, with disordered spiritual magnetism and full of demonic energy, not to mention mortals and flying birds, even if a strong person like my father enters it, he will lose his way and his vitality will be greatly damaged."

"In addition, I don't know how deep and thick the fog is, even if you rely on the true yuan to rush through the fog and rush for ten days and ten nights, you can't find a way out.

Chu Geqi said: "Then how do people in the immortal cultivation realm communicate with each other? ”

"Use the teleportation array!"

The little palace master thought for a while and said, "The so-called 'teleportation array' should be the 'spatial gap' in Professor Zheng's mouth, but it is not a natural appearance, but an artificial construction, because near each teleportation array, there are formations, runes and grooves inlaid with spars engraved by ancient powers, and the destinations of most teleportation arrays are fixed, and some large teleportation arrays can teleport thousands of troops and huge caravans at once, which is enough for transportation."

"And it is through the study of the ancient runes around the teleportation array that we found that the ancient power has divided our world into a circle of 'rings', there are a total of nine layers of circular worlds, and all the islands are embedded in these 'big rings', the further you go to the outer ring, the thinner the aura, and the more you go to the inner ring, the closer the aura is to the ancient secrets.

"Like our Fengyu Immortal Palace, it is located in the east of the 'Fourth Ring Road'."

"East Fourth Ring Road?"

Chu Ge said, "That's pretty generous!" ”

The little palace master was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Chu Ge meant.

"I'm talking nonsense, please continue." Chu Ge said embarrassedly.

"My father and the successive generations of Immortal Venerables of the Phoenix Feather Immortal Palace all want to explore the secrets of the ancient world—more precisely, if they want to obtain the magic weapons and magical powers of the ancient world, then they must explore the inner ring."

The master of the small palace said, "It's a pity that in the 'third ring', which is closer to the core than us, there are more powerful forces than the Fengyu Immortal Palace, and in the deeper second ring and the first ring, there are also alien beasts that even the Yuan Infant is afraid of, as well as indestructible enchantments, labyrinths, and traps, very few people can pass through the obstacles, reach the core, and find out."

"So, even I don't know if the 'hypotheses' that Professor Zheng just threw out are true or false!"
