Chapter 626: Cosmic Atlas
The original purpose of Star Gate was to manage the immortals who left the Eight Desolate Universe. Later, when the expeditionary force did not attack the Golden Immortal Universe, Heaven encouraged the immortals to go out and explore the Golden Immortal Universe, and the management rights came into the hands of Star Gate.
After this small court meeting, the emperor and empress did not take back this part of the power, but only strengthened the Heavenly Court's monitoring of these Golden Immortal Universes and the supervision of the Star Gates to ensure that there were no problems in the intermediate links.
Therefore, the operating rule of the Star Gate is that when cosmic wanderers and explorers discover a new Golden Immortal Universe, they will cast out the Heavenly Net, the Heavenly Court will assign heavenly soldiers and generals, the heavenly officials will register them, and the Heavenly Court will confirm their merits.
In addition, the immortals in the Golden Immortal-level universe were divided into three classes, leaving behind the Skynet, allowing them to come into contact with the Heavenly Court, the Eight Desolate Universe, and the entire affiliated universe system, allowing them to open their eyes and see how big the world is.
This is also a kind of education. Once the Golden Immortal Universe has a garrison envoy or a general sent by the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Court Academy will be established, and then part of the Judicial Heavenly Army will be stationed there.
It can be said that over a long period of time, the Heavenly Court has formed its own rules and procedures. Following these rules will avoid mistakes and reduce unnecessary waste. From this perspective, the establishment of the Star Gate is a success.
"Unfortunately, there are still immortals who think that Star Gate is following the expeditionary army to pick up leaks," Pei Dong'er lay on the thigh of the Frost Fairy, looking at the Frost Fairy's jawline with a hazy look, "That's why I agreed to become the deputy commander."
The expeditionary army looked down on the Golden Immortal-level universes, but Star Gate was determined to take all of them. In fact, the emperor and empress had deliberately made a division, allowing the expeditionary army to focus on the Taiyi-level universe and the Daluo universe, while the huge number of Golden Immortal universes were to be taken care of by special immortals.
In this way, the expeditionary force can also improve its efficiency and avoid wasting too much time. After all, if they care about the Golden Immortal Universe, the expeditionary force will have to conquer a universe almost every time they arrive at a place. Even if it is the Golden Immortal Universe, the time wasted is not small, at least calculated in years.
The expeditionary force is a fleet of warships. Flying and stopping have different consumptions. If they stop too frequently, the consumption will be great. Besides, there are quite a few Daluo and Taiyi on the warships, so it is not worth stopping once for the Golden Immortal Universe.
The strongest in the Golden Immortal Universe is none other than the Golden Immortal. It is impossible for a Taiyi Golden Immortal to appear, so the Heavenly Court can simply send Golden Immortals to conquer. No matter how long it takes, if multiple Golden Immortal universes act together, the efficiency will naturally be high.
Facts have also proved that this arrangement of the Emperor and Empress was very wise. Now, a large number of Golden Immortal-level universes have returned to Heaven. The originally large number of Golden Immortals have been arranged to serve as town envoys or star gods, sitting in charge of every Golden Immortal-level universe.
This also allowed certain conflicts within the Eight Desolations Universe to be resolved quickly. These were the benefits brought by the creation of the Star Gate, not to mention the substantial benefits brought by the establishment of space wandering teams and explorers, as well as traveling merchants.
But these are different for Pei Dong'er. As the Heavenly Concubine in charge of the entire Star Gate, she is not as good as the Daluo like the Immortal Mo Hen, and she is not even as good as the newly promoted Taiyi like the Immortal Mei. Naturally, she feels a little unbalanced.
"Actually, you don't have to pay attention to it." said the Frost Fairy.
"I know, but people have to fight for their dignity," Pei Dong'er smiled, "I want the Star Gate, and I also want the position of deputy commander of the expeditionary force. Besides, it's Luotian Immortal Sect that's pushing this, so I'm not at a loss. Of course, the most important thing is that I'm worried about you."
"I have confidence." The Frost Fairy said solemnly.
"I have confidence too." Pei Dong'er smiled softly.
She was indeed worried about the Frost Fairy, but it was not because she underestimated her strength. Instead, she was afraid that she would be tricked. Jiang Youning and You Daozun were not simple people, not to mention that there were Taiyi from the demon clan and Taiyi from other immortal sects on the warship.
As one of the Heavenly Concubines, with Pei Dong'er's clone in charge, no one dared to plot against him, not even a single thought, otherwise they would be courting death. No matter which immortal sect or Taoist sect they were from, no one could withstand the wrath of the Emperor.
This is the face of the Heavenly Concubine. Even though Fairy Concubine Yunxi is being controlled by Master Ziyun, if she really becomes the Heavenly Concubine, it will be Master Ziyun who will be controlled. The Heavenly Concubine of the Emperor is extremely noble and no sect dares to disrespect her.
Why is Chu Wuxia's Justice Army invincible? It is because no immortal sect dares to confront Chu Wuxia. Even if Chu Wuxia is a true immortal, no immortal sect dares to do so, let alone other small forces.
In the 34,121st year of the Eight Desolations Calendar, the armies from the east and the west encountered the Taiyi Universe one after another. The Ice Fairy and You Daozun took action one after another and spent half a year to successfully conquer the Taiyi Universe. This completely kicked off the prelude to the two major expeditionary forces from the east and the west, and the Heavenly Court also completely entered the expeditionary era.
From this year on, the Heavenly Court updated the cosmic coordinate map almost every ten years, and each time it added the universes that were affiliated with the Heavenly Court, down to the details of every Golden Immortal universe, including the surrounding meteorites and related extraterrestrial demon tribes.
By this year, the number of Golden Immortal-level universes that had surrendered to Heaven exceeded 60,000, the number of Taiyi-level universes exceeded 5,000, and there were 15 Daluo-level universes. The number of immortals in Heaven had skyrocketed, the number of celestial immortals in the Eight Desolate Universes remained unchanged, but the number of third-class immortals had exploded. With each additional Golden Immortal-level universe, the number of immortals increased by at least hundreds of thousands, and at most a Golden Immortal-level universe could have more than ten million immortals.
It was also in this year that the Heavenly Court published an atlas of the universe on the Skynet. Every affiliated universe had an atlas. By clicking on the universe icon on the atlas, one could get to know the universe as if they were there in person. It was very wonderful and unique.
It was at this time that the immortals discovered that the Golden Immortal Universes actually came in different sizes. Some Golden Immortal Universes were extremely rich in resources, with large spaces and lands, while others were poor in resources and had very small spaces.
The Heavenly Court divided the universe into levels in the atlas.
Golden Immortal Universe: wasteland, barren, standard, abundant, and top-notch.
Taiyi Universe: Pseudo Taiyi Universe, True Taiyi Universe.
The wasteland-level Golden Immortal Universe is the worst Golden Immortal-level universe. There are basically no immortals, only mortals. There are even very few cultivators. There is no immortal cultivation inheritance at all, and resources are almost impossible to find.
There are quite a few wasteland-level Golden Immortal Universes like this in the universe, but such universes can easily decline. So even though the Heavenly Court recorded them, it did not send any heavenly soldiers or generals to them. Instead, it put a red label on them.
When the wasteland-level Golden Immortal Universe is destroyed, cosmic wonders may be born. Cosmic wonders are very precious, and the Heavenly Court does not want to miss them, so the purpose of putting a red tag is to monitor it at any time and determine the time of destruction so that they can take action at any time.
The barren universe is a level within the Golden Immortal Universe, with a larger number than the wasteland universe. In this type of Golden Immortal universe, there are also very few immortals, but at least there are immortals and a large number of cultivators, but it is difficult to be promoted to a true immortal.
Corresponding to the barren universe is the standard universe, which is the standard given by the Heavenly Court. In the standard universe, the number of true immortals is at least 100,000, the number of celestial immortals is at least ten, and there must be golden immortals. Otherwise, it cannot be called a golden immortal-level universe.
The standard universe is the qualified universe that the Heavenly Court needs, but it is only qualified. Only the surplus universe can be considered a real resource universe. The Heavenly Court can benefit from it and obtain some resources.
A surplus universe generally has a large supply of resources, which also leads to a surge in the number of celestial immortals. There must be at least thirty, and at most over a hundred, and even occasionally a golden immortal. Such a universe is valuable and is the target of traveling merchants.
As for the ultimate universe, it is extremely rare. There are millions of true immortals, over a thousand celestial immortals, and one to three golden immortals. Even so, the resources are still very rich, even inexhaustible, allowing the golden immortals to complete their accumulation and impact Taiyi.
Such a universe is close to the level of Taiyi Universe and can be regarded as a treasure universe. Even traveling merchants would find it difficult to encounter it. However, the Star Gate's universe wandering team can roam everywhere and may find it.
This is just the Golden Immortal. In the cosmic atlas, the division of the Taiyi Universe is much simpler. It is divided into the true Taiyi Universe and the false Taiyi Universe. The true Taiyi Universe is where there are Taiyi Golden Immortals, while the false Taiyi Universe is where there are no Taiyi.
The difference between the two is huge. If Taiyi Jinxian still exists, the resources of this universe must be very rich, because the birth of Taiyi gods and demons will inevitably be accompanied by killing. If more immortals are killed, there will naturally be fewer resources to be mined.
The Pseudo Taiyi Universe is where the original Taiyi gods and demons were born. They consumed the resources of the universe, so they had to leave in search of a more advanced universe. As a result, the Pseudo Taiyi Universe is actually in the recovery stage, and resources are naturally scarce.
But after all, they are all Taiyi Universes, which are stronger than the top-grade Golden Immortal Universes, and of course have richer resources. Such a universe is also the target of Heaven, because in addition to resources, the Taiyi Universe also has luck.
The cosmic atlas records all the universes that have surrendered to Heaven, even the wasteland universes. The only difference is that detailed information requires merit to purchase. These wasteland universes are all supervised by Heaven, and no one dares to tamper with them.
As for why there is no Daluo Universe, the fundamental reason is that no immortal in the Eight Desolate Universe is qualified to understand the Daluo Universe. The resources of the Daluo Universe are so rich that the immortals cannot imagine. After all, the Daluo Golden Immortal has passed the stage where he needs to rely on resources to accumulate himself, and many resources are left in the universe.
The birth of the Daluo Jinxian will not cause the consumption of cosmic resources. On the contrary, the appearance of the Daluo Jinxian will promote the advancement of the universe, thereby promoting the explosive growth of cosmic resources and providing growth space for later immortals.
The Daluo Universe is the target of the expeditionary force. Regardless of whether there is a Daluo Golden Immortal in charge, every Daluo Universe that is conquered is a treasure trove for the Heavenly Court and is definitely something worth celebrating.
The emergence of the Cosmic Atlas has given the immortals in heaven a way to correctly understand the universe. Even the Heavenly Academy has courses on understanding the universe, using the Cosmic Atlas as a tool. It is not only convenient, but also very popular.
Dujiao Taiyi and Li Chenzhou are obsessed with the cosmic atlas. Whenever they sit together drinking, they will study the cosmic atlas together. After all, there are too many universes that have submitted to the heaven, and they simply cannot recognize them all.
Each universe has its own specialties, as well as its own unique culture and landforms. Every time they get to know a new universe, it is a new accumulation for them, and they are naturally very satisfied with the universe atlas.
They also compiled a method to carefully and correctly understand the atlas of the universe and passed it on to their disciples. Among them, some disciples who were traveling merchants actually successfully found the ultimate Golden Immortal Universe through the two's method.
This was just like an open-book exam with the answers delivered to the students, which caused quite a stir. The course on how to understand the cosmic atlas was also assigned to Dujiao Taiyi and Li Chenzhou.
This also made the disciples of the two teachers feel proud and more enthusiastic about studying the cosmic atlas. You know, there are tens of thousands of cosmic atlases and the number is constantly increasing, and the knowledge represented by a cosmic atlas is very rich.
You need to understand the coordinates of the universe, have a clear grasp of the universe near the coordinates, and then their development history, resource distribution, etc. In addition, there are also stories about the planets in the universe.
Or maybe the two Taiyi were masters. Not only did they not mind the trouble, they explored every universe, and even used Skynet to project their avatars to the universe to gain understanding, and finally completed the cosmic atlas.
The one-horned Taiyi and Li Chenzhou even received rewards from the Heavenly Court and gained a considerable amount of merit. This was something no one expected, not even the two Taiyis. They were a little amused but glad to accept it.
The emergence of the cosmic atlas directly stimulated the prosperity of the Star Gate. More and more immortals joined together to form cosmic wandering teams. They used the atlas to search for the top-grade golden immortal-level universe. There was no need to think about the Taiyi Universe and the Daluo Universe at all.
There are definitely more than tens of thousands of Golden Immortal Universes that have not surrendered to the Heavenly Court, and there are even more than millions and tens of millions. It is also possible for top-quality Golden Immortal Universes to appear. Each one is extremely precious and also arouses the enthusiasm of the immortals.
Some immortal sects are very active in this regard, especially those sects that only have Golden Immortals but no Taiyi. They really hope to discover the ultimate Golden Immortal universe so that they can get more resources, make contributions and gain merits.
This is also a good thing for traveling merchants. Golden Immortal-level traveling merchants can go to the Golden Immortal-level universe. They can completely find a more abundant universe to trade. They call themselves the pioneers of heaven and regard You Wanli as their idol.
These Golden Immortals are all Golden Immortals from the sects who do not want to be town envoys. Each of them has a profound foundation and can freely choose their own path and way of practice. This also naturally makes them have ideas about the ultimate Golden Immortal universe.
In fact, let alone the Golden Immortals of the Taoist Sect, the Golden Immortals of the Heavenly Court all want to explore the universe and discover the ultimate Golden Immortal universe. The main reason is that the rewards given by the Heavenly Court are very generous. Since the arrival of the expeditionary era, the emperor and empress have become generous.
Compared with the immortal officials in heaven, traveling merchants have more freedom. Of course, the assessment by the Star Gate is also a spur. The fundamental reason why many Golden Immortals are deterred is that the Star Gate stipulates that traveling merchants have a transaction volume task, which makes them very uncomfortable.
In short, the emergence of the cosmic atlas really made the Eight Desolate Universe lively, and also allowed more Golden Immortals and other immortals to leave the Eight Desolate Universe.
