Chapter 144: General Outline of Cyber ​​Cultivation!

If the ultimate goal of the Qi refining period is the ever-changing and physically invincible Eight-nine Mysterious Skills of the Taoist guardian war god Yang Jian in mythology,

Then the pursuit of the golden elixir period is just like what is said in myths and legends: if a golden elixir is swallowed into the belly, my destiny will be determined by me, and I will achieve immortality.

However, judging from the current technical level of the cybernetic immortality system that Xiao has mastered, even if it is successfully condensed into a golden elixir, the maximum lifespan is only 800 years old.

Eight hundred years has become the limit of life that can be reached in the current stage, the golden elixir stage. If you want to continue to live, you must further explore and develop the cyber elixir.

Of course, compared to genetic modification in the Qi refining stage, it is obviously much easier to obtain a longer lifespan through breakthroughs in energy.

The reason is that for the subsequent development of Jindan, there are already clear paths to follow: light nuclear fusion, heavy nuclear fusion, antimatter engine, dark matter engine, ether engine...etc.

As long as we continue to dig deeper into this field and make the technology mature enough, those powerful technologies that were originally only in our imaginations will hopefully turn into a realistic version of the "Cyber ​​Golden Pill" and become the power source for cyber immortality.

After all, these are proven and real energy technologies that just need to continue to be researched and developed according to established plans.

However, the development of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills requires the support of various powerful biological genes.

Just catching those creatures with long-lived qualities requires a lot of good luck!

As for famous and mysterious legendary creatures like tardigrades or lighthouse jellyfish, Xiao said with great helplessness that their genes are completely useless.

The key to the miraculous abilities of these two legendary creatures lies in their relatively simple structure.

Generally speaking, the more complex the structure of an organism, the more stable its genes; and the more stable the gene, the more aggressive it will be.

In fact, countless members of the Mechanicus have already conducted experiments on these two creatures.

Even all creatures that have appeared in human history have been tried with the cooperation of the Mechanicum and biotechnology.

Cyber ​​aura can record blueprints not only for machinery, but also for flesh and blood tissue and gene sequences. As long as there is no long-term fusion, short-term modification of gene sequences and forms is actually completely possible.

But when they themselves are integrated with various biological genes, they will not produce any actual effect except adding more burden to the huge genetic code accumulated by humans after 260 million years of evolution.

Because the genetic sequence of humans is as high as 60% similar to the genetic sequences of other animals, it can be said that humans also have the same genetic sequences that animals have.

The theory that [gene fusion of humans and animals can enhance human body functions] is pure bullshit.

With the same mass, the structure of the human body is much more stable than the structure of the animal body, insect body, or soft body.

In front of the alloy life form and the cybernetic with a bolt gun in his hand, changing to the beast form is really not as practical as adding two more mechanical tentacles and two more guns.

As for the question of whether the development of subsequent realms of cyber immortality can further extend life span?

The answer given by Xiao is yes.

Not only because as the level of cultivation increases, the strength will become stronger and stronger,

The more important reason is that the so-called cultivation of immortality is essentially to continuously strengthen the three treasures of essence, energy and spirit of the human body, and finally cultivate into a true immortal without leakage, so that the wish of immortality and the same life span as heaven and earth can be realized.

From a scientific perspective, the so-called "Three Treasures of Essence, Qi and Shen" can actually be explained as [matter], [energy] and [soul], the three fundamental forces that constitute life.

When Xiao first founded the cybernetic cultivation system, he expanded on this basis.

In this system, each stage develops a mysterious treasure related to the human body:

The Qi refining stage focuses on cultivating the body and controlling matter; the foundation building stage focuses on improving energy; and the golden elixir stage focuses on the soul.

In this way, every time a stage reaches a qualitative leap, the strength will experience a round of rapid growth.

Once the three treasures are ready and integrated with each other, they will condense into the secret treasures in the body, and then reach the realm of the unity of the three elements - the Nascent Soul realm.

This not only means another sublimation of personal strength, but also a complete transformation.

However, although this idea is quite elegant, its actual implementation is difficult.

After all, the three treasures have no direct connection with each other. How can we achieve the integration of the three?

This has undoubtedly become a difficult problem before us.

Fortunately, with the help of many wise men of the Mechanicum, they finally came up with a solution: by setting up a large realm as a connecting bridge.

As a result, Xiao's original design of four realms of completion was adjusted to seven realms in order to better complete this difficult process.

Specifically, the current Qi refining period mainly focuses on cultivation on the material level;

The foundation building period is to realize the transformation of matter into energy;

The Golden Elixir period emphasizes the control of energy;

At the Nascent Soul stage, energy needs to be transformed into soul power;

The final stage of transformation into gods focuses on the tempering of the soul.

After long and arduous efforts, three thrilling transformations were finally completed!

At this moment, the three treasures of essence, energy and spirit have been perfectly integrated, reaching the supreme state - the state of integration.

This means that the cultivator has achieved the first qualitative leap from mortal to immortal, becoming a semi-immortal in the true sense.

Moreover, compared with traditional cultivation, cyber cultivation has an incomparable advantage: as long as technology continues to develop and progress, its power will continue to grow.

It is no exaggeration to say that the most powerful thing about cyber cultivation is that realm is not the only factor that determines the size of power, and it will not pin people down at a certain stage and prevent them from becoming stronger.

On the path of cyber cultivation, the three paths of spirit, energy and spirit are independent but interrelated. No matter whether you choose to continuously improve your realm or specialize in one path, as long as you are willing to study hard, you can gain endless power.

If you desire to have an indestructible body like a Qi Refiner, and possess the terrifying power to destroy the stars by yourself;

If you yearn for the various powerful energy engines mastered by the Golden Core Stage, with endless energy, you only need pure energy to sweep the world;

Even if you pursue the realm of the God Transformation Stage, once it is achieved, it will be extraordinary and kill people invisibly with the power of the soul. Even if you don’t continue to cultivate, you can basically achieve immortality.

After all, after the soul power is developed, it is not too much to seize a body, and even further open up the soul kingdom and cultivate to the realm of ghost immortals.
