This is, outside of Lin Chen's time, the story.

At that time, Lin Chen had already left the place where the Great Qian Dynasty was located, and even left the land of Lingnan Immortal Cultivation to explore the outside world.

And Taiping Road is still in an orderly manner, and it can even be said that it is developing by leaps and bounds.

Use the cold and ruthless human brain computer array [Huang Tian] to distribute benefits and enforce the law impartially, and use people implanted with the Confucian ideological steel seal to assist in governing society.

Even from the founding of the People's Republic of China to today, there are still countless problems, but they have finally been solved one by one, and they have not been left to future generations, no officialdom has been formed, and no so-called interest class has been formed.

Although the wealth earned by parents is passed on to their children, this phenomenon still exists, but the social status and the share of allocated resources are not passed down through the bloodline.

To put it simply, wealth can be classified as private, but the means of production are state-owned, and the right to distribute resources is not in the hands of people.

And the real high-level of Taiping Dao is either a priest who has entered the human brain computer array in terms of interests, or a person who has been marked with the steel seal of Confucian spirit, has extremely high moral quality, and has all kinds of outstanding contributions and outstanding abilities.

In the whole society, although it is not equal to everyone, it can be regarded as fair and just, and the harder the person, the luckier he is.

Under such social conditions, the development of productive forces, the understanding of the nature of the world, and the Taiping Dao have developed by leaps and bounds.

However, with the continuous breakthrough of theory and research, there are more and more outstanding people and scholars, and they begin to gradually realize that something is wrong.

They were horrified to find that their theoretical conjectures about the nature of the world derived from them according to the Neidan method did not correspond to the phenomena of reality.

According to their understanding and summary of the phenomena of this world, this world should be materialistic.

Each substance has its most basic unit, and they are fixed to form a certain substance, which is difficult to convert between them.

But the Neidan method completely broke their theory.

It has achieved various means beyond common sense, such as turning fiction into reality and practicing falsehood.

In other words, according to their research based on real phenomena, the Inner Dan Method should be fake, but the strange thing is that it can cultivate the real supernatural!

It's as outrageous as what you imagined it could be!

"Is there something wrong with our theory?!"

"This is impossible, we are all deduced from the method of Neidan that the immortals said, even if something goes wrong, we will not get a result that is far from the same!"

"Or is it a summary of the real phenomenon that something went wrong?!"

"So much data is here, we have checked it countless times, can we still deceive you?!"

After countless scholars and scholars discussed and quarreled, and ruled out all kinds of possible answers, they had to admit that the remaining one was most likely the truth.

That's ......

[The world as we know it is most likely incomplete]

As soon as this theory came out, the whole world was shocked.

At that time, it was fifty years after Lin Chen left.

Yunjing City, in Taixue, the whole world, scholars and craftsmen who study theory and technology, and Tianjiao who practice the law of Neidan come one after another and gather together.

Whether it is Xu Yue, who walked out of the Gangqi in the past, or Xie Xuan, who condensed the martial arts golden pill and served as a great sage and good teacher, or the geniuses who walked the witchcraft spell and the way of holding the Dan illusion dream...... It's all here!

At this moment, in the huge hall, Lin Chen's statue was placed in the most central position, and under the statue, there was a huge round table, counting carefully, there were about thirty more positions.

Every position was full of people, Gang Qi, illusions, Gu worms...... and other visions, which are manifested one by one from the individual.

They are the top talents who have been successfully screened out through various research methods among hundreds of millions of people in the entire Taiping Dao, and each of them is one in a million.

At this moment, they are all gathered together to explore the truth of their region.

"How's the research on the electromagnetic gun?"

"There is still a problem, and after reaching a certain point, the conversion between electricity and magnetism seems to be missing some kind of key factor, and it has not been able to break through the speed of sound."

"Those guys who study the essence are stunned, the world is incomplete, I'm afraid there is something wrong with my head, I have to rush back to improve my high-yield crops."

"The education coverage rate has reached 98 per cent, and education for all is just around the corner......

In every field, people who are top figures are discussing the rule of Taipingdao.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"Silence! Quiet! ”

Xie Xuan, a great sage and good teacher, picked up the hammer in his hand and knocked on the table three times, and the crisp sound echoed in the empty hall.

The next moment, all the participants fell silent.

"This time we have gathered everyone to discuss more important matters. Okay, without further ado, I announce that the Fifth Meeting of All Living Beings of Taiping Dao has officially begun. Xie Xuan, a great sage and good teacher, stood up and solemnly swore an oath.

As soon as his words fell, Xu Yue on the side couldn't wait to ask, "What did you discover when you studied the nature of the world?" Why is there a statement that the world is incomplete? ”

Several young and old people, dressed in Taoist robes, glanced at each other, and then a young man in a green shirt stepped forward.

"When we speculated on the nature of the world according to the method of Neidan, we made an unexpected discovery."

"What discovery?"

"According to our original speculation, since the Inner Dan Method can be successfully cultivated, then this world should be composed of the so-called [Qi]."

"Since everything in the world is made up of Qi, then there must be a root Qi that can be used to transform all things."

"Our research was originally intended to be used to find the original [Qi], but after we explored all the places in the territory of Taiping Dao, we were surprised to find that there was no such so-called [Qi] at all, but our Inner Dan method could be cultivated normally......"

"Speak human words." Xu Yue couldn't help but interrupt, "Say something we can understand." ”

"This ......" The young man in the green shirt was stunned, he felt that he had said it simply enough.

"Forget it, forget it, I'll explain." At this time, Xie Xuan raised his hand and motioned for him to sit down.

Then, he crossed his hands in front of the table, looked at the people in the field, and said slowly: "In this way, let's make an assumption, this existence that can transform all things, let's assume it as [Reiqi], that is, the fundamental qi of all living beings in the world. ”

"According to the theoretical calculation of the Neidan Law, since it is the aura that constructs all things, then we should be able to find the existence of the aura itself in the territory under the jurisdiction of the Taiping Dao."

"However, when we explored the entire territory, we did not find the existence of the aura itself, only the aura in various material forms."

"We can't use these material forms of aura through the means of cultivation, but the strange thing is that our Inner Dan method can work normally, extracting and using unknown powers to transform ourselves......"

Xie Xuan's voice echoed in the venue, and after it was over, everyone in the venue fell into deep thought.

Then, a voice broke the silence: "For example, we call the time when the spiritual energy is abundant and can be cultivated as the peak of cultivation. The time when the aura does not exist and it is impossible to practice is called the era of the end of the Dharma.

"And what do you mean is that the area we are in now is the era of the end of the Dharma in terms of observation, but the Inner Dan Dharma can be popularized, and large-scale cultivation shows that now is the prosperous age of cultivation?"

"In other words, in our region, which can be called the era of the end of the Dharma, can there be a scene of a prosperous era of cultivation?"

"That's right." Xie Xuan nodded.

"What do you think is the reason?"

"Or, on the earth, in the era of the end of the law, there are aura everywhere that has been transformed into a fixed form, but in the sky, there is a free form of aura, which can be used for the cultivation of our inner Dan's law."

Xie Xuan spoke slowly, and then, he paused, and then continued: "Or, the land we are in is only an extremely remote corner of this world, and beyond the vast ocean and boundless plateau, there is also a world that we don't know. ”

"And this unknown world can spread over a very small amount of spiritual energy to supply us with cultivation."

Then, he looked at everyone: "Our Taiping Dao, most likely, is a frog sitting at the bottom of a well, and I never knew the vastness of this world. ”

At this moment, everyone in the audience fell silent.

Before that, almost everyone in the venue believed that the land of Kyushu, which was under the jurisdiction of Taiheido, was the center of the world.

Civilization was born and developed in this land, experienced countless setbacks, and finally moved towards an unknown tomorrow.

But one day, someone suddenly came to tell them that the place where you are is is just the most remote corner of the world.

Outside, there may be a wider world, and the world you think is just a small mound of earth, and you are just a group of ants in the mound that think they are wise.

After hearing this, what kind of mood would you feel at that time?

There was a long silence in the room, and I don't know how long it took before someone finally spoke up and broke the silence

"So, you mean ......"

"What we mean—" Xie Xuan raised his head and looked at the people in the arena one by one, "Since we have found it, then use the power of the whole country to explore, the world outside." ”

"That's not going to work!"

As soon as this statement came out, it was immediately met with strong opposition.

"Do you know how many resources it takes to explore the outside world? Can you afford the social turmoil and the decline in people's living standards caused by this? ”

"That's right, it's not worth spending so much money just to explore that unknown place!"

"The people's living standards are far more important than the unknown world!"

"Everyone!" Faced with the increasingly loud objections of the crowd, Xie Xuan drank clearly, directly overshadowing everyone in the venue.

"Fifty years ago, when the great sage and good teacher left, I also dissuaded him like this, and he said such a sentence to me, and now, I give this sentence to you."

Xie Xuan stared at the people present and said word by word: "Why should we explore the unknown world, because it is there." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent again.

I don't know how long it took for Xie Xuan to slowly pick up the hammer in his hand.

"We are all the top talents in civilization, at this critical moment, what should we do in the future, let's make a choice together......

……

More than ten years later, Taiping Road, after the rolling alpine snowfields in the north.

Under a snow-capped plateau, a team of people finally came out of the snowstorm and came to a lush forest.

"Whew—finally, come out." Even though he has lived for decades, Xu Yue, who has seen a lot of the world, couldn't help but sigh with palpitations.

They set out from the northernmost part of the Taiping Road and passed through the vast and long alpine snowfields, which lasted six months, and more than half of the people were reduced, before finally coming out.

Even so, the people in the team still couldn't help but feel related, after all, in front of the natural heavenly might, they mortals were too small.

"But I finally came out, what the original great sage and good teacher said was really right, outside, there is a wider world."

Standing on top of a hill, Xu Yue looked at the endless forest in front of him, and there was an indescribable excitement in his eyes.

After all, everything in front of him is unknown, the unknown world, and the unknown exploration, which made his heart, which was already a little vicissitudes, and he couldn't help but slowly become enthusiastic.

However, at this time, he did not lose his mind and acted rashly, but looked at his teammates on the side: "How is it?" Are you still in contact with the territory of Taiping Road? ”

"No, the interference from the Snow Mountain is too serious, we can't contact the territory of Taiping Dao at all, captain, what should we do now?" The team member in charge of contact on the side couldn't help but turn his head and asked with a frown.

"That's it......" Xu Yue pondered for a moment, and then said, "Let's go find the people first, settle down here, establish a good force, and communicate with the territory of Taiping Dao, after all, with our current materials, there is no way to turn back." ”

The rest of the team listened, nodded their heads, agreed with him, and after a night's rest, the whole team started to set off again.

After three days and three nights of travel, they successfully came to a place where people gathered, a mountain village that was neither big nor small.

Xu Yue sent his teammates to secretly inquire about the situation, and after he came back, he listened carefully to the information that came back, and couldn't help frowning.

"Are you saying that in three days, there will be a so-called immortal master who will come here and recruit that what, what kind of spirit spirit, spirit root and other mortals?"

"That's right." The teammate nodded, "And I heard that they are going to hand in something called a spirit stone." ”

"Immortal Master, Spirit Root, Spirit Stone?" Xu Yue repeated these words, hesitated, and said, "Since that's the case, then let's wait here for a few days and meet the so-called immortal master." ”

"Okay."

Three days later, the immortal master came as promised, and Xu Yue and the others were also ready to do it.

No one would have thought that the method of Neidan, Qi refining and cultivating immortals, these two cultivation civilizations that come from the same set of theories and walk on two separate roads, but have the same magic, opened the prelude to contact and collision on this day.

However, Lin Chen didn't know all this, because at this moment, he had already left the Lingnan Immortal Cultivation Land to explore the outside world.

And when he returned that day, the collision of these two different cultivation civilizations, the magnificent and thrilling vast era, were all slowly buried in the long river of history with the passage of time.
