Exploring Immortality Cultivation

Inexplicable, indescribable. Omniscient, omnipotent. It was truly a chilling experience.

At the pinnacle of Shenzhou, Carefree, All Laws Return to One Mai Siwei thought this way.

No matter how many times, he could never get used to the "Immortal Path".

It was tentatively named "Super Spirit Energy Environment", different from the high spirit energy environment near a planet's gravity well or biosphere, and also distinct from the low spirit energy environment of the cosmic wasteland. The state of matter here was completely different from the known universe. Time and space, along with the known eleven dimensions—perhaps even unknown dimensions—were hyper-coupled here. No boundaries existed between the micro and macroscopic.

It was truly a chilling experience.

Then, he left that place.

A four-dimensional gate opened. Viewed from a three-dimensional perspective, this hypersphere looked no different from a sphere. The Carefree Practitioner's top-tier magical treasure—the Lieque Ship—transversed the hypersphere, arriving in our three-dimensional space.

A lonely constant star emitted a dim red light. Around it, a scattering of minor asteroids. And a planet. The star system, isolated in this patch of the sky close to the galaxy, had many bright first-magnitude stars. Here, even without sunlight or the reflection of a satellite, one could still see the rose hues of the nebula at night.

All Laws Return to One tapped lightly on the bridge deck with his toes, and the true spirit of the magical treasure immediately linked with his consciousness. One hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred arrays nested within each other, amplifying the electromagnetic field around him. The "Daoyi Dichotomy Array" at the starship's core created two opposing membranes, brought very close to each other, and forcefully extracted the Daoyi Power [Casimir Force] from the Infinite Sea of Vacuum, producing pure vacuum spiritual power. The electromagnetic field around Mai Siwei expanded at nearly the speed of light, eventually extending to 300 light seconds.

Three hundred light seconds, about 0.6 astronomical units, or five light minutes. Even light would need the duration of a cup of tea to cross this distance. This range was far larger than the size of Saturn's rings. If there were a flat surface this large, it would be sufficient for an Earth-sized terrestrial planet to roll back and forth on it.

Mai Siwei habitually squinted his eyes. In reality, as a Demi Immortal artifact-class starship magical treasure, the interior lighting of the "Lieque" was constant. It was just that, as a member of the Human Clan, he habitually linked electromagnetic sensations with his vision to form synesthesia. Threads of electric light twined around him, forming Yin Yang Yao. The electric light flickered, freely switching between presence and absence, reality and illusion. This was for processing the Spirit Sense received by the electromagnetic field. The field he expanded was equivalent to a giant radio telescope mixed with a giant optical telescope.

Three hundred light seconds, over ten thousand times the diameter of Shenzhou Hou Tu.

Having mastered the art of photoelectric change, he could collect all electromagnetic wave information within those three hundred light seconds.

As long as his Primordial Spirit was sufficient to process it.

Countless Spirit Senses traveled through the electromagnetic field at the speed of light, entering the Sea of Consciousness of the peak Great Cultivator, and then, propelled by the electromagnetic waves of his cultivation reaching the Transformation Realm through the Heavenly Song, were injected into the newly constructed Yin Yang Yao Array, converted into Yin Yang Yao Text [binary mechanical language], and then entered into a calculator, processed by the starship's true spirit.

"Current location… unclear for now. Suspected to be the Heart of Tianhe…"

"Constant star is a Red Giant Star, mass… volume… radius…"

"Planet, visually confirmed as one, determining trajectory, calculating gravitational disturbances…"

"Planetary surface spectroscopic analysis… Terrestrial planet, atmosphere primarily nitrogen and oxygen, surface completely liquid water, with carbon..."

Very much like Shenzhou Hou Tu.

That's what Mai Siwei thought.

While he was expanding the range of his power, another Path Rank began to execute automatically.

It was used to awaken the hibernating "crew". Unlike the ships envisioned by Earth People, the Lieque, with its body as a magical treasure, could be operated by a single person. Mai Siwei could single-handedly navigate it across the Star Sea.

But ultimately, his purpose for coming here was not to enjoy the scenery.

The Immortal Alliance wanted to create a peaceful paradise, a land where all Modern Cultivators seeking the Dao could reside. To do this, they needed a force capable of deterring Immortals, so that the Immortals would not dare to act recklessly.

And to obtain such power, studying this universe was the best way.

The primary task of the Lieque was data collection.

Any data.

All data that could be researched could be transformed into power by the Modern system.

And since it involved research, it was necessary to bring a certain number of people. Even as great as All Laws Return to One Mai Siwei was, he was just one person. He could grasp all electromagnetic changes, but he couldn't claim to understand every domain.

In the lower cabin of the Lieque, hundreds of people lay in a well-organized square array in the zero-gravity space, quietly asleep. Then, a fluctuation of the Primordial Magnetic Power stirred their Primordial Spirits, and a more intense palpitation emerged from the depths of their consciousness.

It was a signal—"Awaken!"

And then, everyone woke up.

This group was the most elite batch of Disciples from the Immortal Alliance, the elite of the Great Grandmasters. Only they could survive in the Super Spirit Energy Environment of the Immortal Path.

These people were no strangers to this kind of awakening. They quickly found their positions and subtly used Spiritual Sense Transmission to discuss among themselves.

"Where is this place… Infinite Heavenly Venerable! A Red Giant Star!"

"It's not as if we haven't seen one before."

"This is somewhat rare. On the habitable belt beside the Red Giant Star, there's actually a planet?"

"It was originally a far-sun planet, with a solid core and an ice surface, right? It has become habitable only because the constant star expanded."
