Invasion

"Technologies that change the world."

Edward looked at Harriman, waiting for further explanation.

"The projection of this world above us is becoming increasingly realistic. According to our research, this world will completely overlap with our spacetime in parts within thirty to forty years..."

Harriman paused at this point.

He only mentioned local overlap.

It doesn't say there's a true overlap.

Once the two worlds truly overlap, it will be equivalent to the collision of two super-stars. At that time, the mere gravitational convergence of the two stars will bring a cataclysmic disaster to the world.

After pondering for a moment, he continued, "When the two worlds partially overlap, under certain special conditions, something similar to a spacetime tunnel will be formed... Just like the spacetime disturbance we conducted in our experiment not long ago, that can also be regarded as a spacetime tunnel. However, this kind of spacetime tunnel can only be used by several people whose thoughts are in sync, and only by chance can fortuitous opportunity consciousness travel through it. This kind of experiment is full of uncertainty."

"The technology you're talking about can turn uncertainty into certainty?"

"Yes, this technology is used in their world to build altars to commemorate their ancestors and receive their blessings. However, according to our researchers' preliminary studies, if this altar can be successfully built, it will resonate with another similar altar building in that world."

Harriman said with a smile, "This resonance doesn't have any practical use, but for us, we can explore the waves formed by this resonance, which will allow us to truly find the coordinates of the Realm of Immortality."

At this point, he paused slightly. "With this coordinate, we won't need to rely entirely on luck to try each person one by one like we do now. We can even precisely open 'space-time channels' that work on people with similar mindsets, allowing us to enter the world of immortality through memory sharing."

"Memory sharing?"

Jonas, standing next to Edward, couldn't help but ask, "You mean consciousness uploading technology?"

"Yes, this technology is still in its infancy in our world, but this experiment has given me hope for perfecting it."

Harriman's eyes gleamed. "The beings of the Immortal Realm are the perfect vessels. If we continue to develop, the technology to transfer consciousness to vessels in the Immortal Realm is not impossible. If we allow enough people to collect cultivation Cultivation Method and resources in the Immortal Realm and then transmit them to our Blue Star, what awaits us will surely be the beginning of a new era."

He took a deep breath, his voice trembling with excitement. "At that time, all of us will be able to become second-tier, or even fourth-tier or fifth-tier cultivators, with lifespans of two hundred, five hundred, or a thousand years, and then truly lead human civilization to take off and head towards the stars and the sea."

"Different worlds have different environments. How can you ensure that the cultivation Cultivation Method used in one world will be applicable in our world?"

At this point, the Minister of Defense spoke out again, "Moreover, why does this so-called altar-like building and technology feel so deliberate? Could it be a trap sent by that world? Their purpose is similar to ours; we want to determine their world coordinates, and they also want to determine our world coordinates."

"The reason you asked this question is because you don't yet understand the technology of synchronized thinking."

Harriman said, "The key to this technology is memory sharing and consciousness sharing! In other words, he obtains these technologies and information directly from the other party's memory, or directly collects the information he wants to use from the mindset. Unless the people of that civilization are powerful enough to manipulate thoughts, consciousness, or even the legendary soul, these messages will not be false in the slightest."

At this point, he paused slightly. "Moreover, the situation we are currently facing is actually beyond our control. Even if we remain indifferent, in thirty or forty years, the two worlds will inevitably create a spacetime channel due to their proximity, allowing people from the Immortal Realm to descend upon our Blue Star. This is something that cannot be changed by our will."

These words left the Minister of Defense speechless.

Whether this increasingly realistic world above us will ultimately bring disaster or opportunity remains unclear to anyone.

"Furthermore, I want to state that if the beings of that civilization are truly so powerful that they can arbitrarily modify our thoughts and consciousness, if we remain indifferent now, when the two worlds intersect in thirty or forty years, we humans will have no power to resist. This is because by the time we realize their existence and want to resist, we will have already been mentally transformed and become their servants and slaves."

Harriman said solemnly, "So gentlemen, we must take action in any way."

Edward, Jonas, Robert, and others gathered together and discussed something.

Things are different now than they used to be.

The Realm of Immortality has already appeared in the Blue Star above Earth in the form of a projection. In addition, experts have also conducted research on it. In thirty or forty years, there is a high probability that the two worlds will intersect.

It will at least create a "space-time tunnel" that can connect the two worlds.

Of course, they might make contact in another form, but for now they'll use the term "space-time tunnel."

Knowing that the threat would arrive decades later, it was inevitable that their actions would be somewhat radical.

"So, what's your opinion?"

Edward said.

I divided him into several parts as before.

Harriman rallied his spirits. "First, continue searching for individuals with high mental synchronization rates. Enter the Realm of Immortality through the 'space-time tunnel' created by the particle collider to obtain more intelligence, preferably information related to cultivation. At the same time, proceed with the construction of the altar—the Spirit Light Platform. Second, select a group of elite soldiers and enhance their mental strength through meditation, visualization, and other methods..."

He paused for a moment, then added, "Based on the data we've observed, these methods should be useful."

"Should? You mean 'should'?"

Robert frowned.

"Yes, Your Excellency, this is an extraterrestrial civilization different from ours, a completely new field. None of us can be 100% certain that it is effective. We can only speculate by monitoring the brainwaves of the test subjects through instruments."

Harriman said.

Robert thought for a moment, then said nothing more, "You continue."

"We cultivate a group of soldiers with strong mental power through visualization, who can successfully pass through the 'space-time channel'. Then, guided by the Spirit Light Platform, we let them enter that world, on the one hand to build our forward base, and on the other hand to transfer our Cultivation Method to us."

"Soldiers, forward base..."

Upon hearing these words, Jonas slowly said, "Are we going to invade the Realm of Immortality?"

"Invasion? No, no, no, Your Excellency, don't forget that the Realm of Immortality is in a feudal era. We are messengers of civilization, and our purpose in entering that world is to sow the seeds of civilization and harmony."

Harriman said with a smile.

"I hope the Immortal Realm is really a backward feudal civilization."

Jonas said.

"I understand the Speaker's concerns."

Harriman said, "Do you all remember the energy glow we observed years ago? It was like a low-yield hydrogen bomb being detonated. We suspect that the country across the sea, which always likes to keep things to itself, has already built its forward base before us. Don't forget, they mastered the technology of synchronized thinking earlier than we did. In other words, their exploration of the world of immortality is far ahead of ours. And if even they can successfully explore and establish themselves in that world, what about us?"

Harriman's words caused a stir among the important figures present.

"The forward base... they've gotten so far ahead of us in such a short time?"

"Short?"

Harriman said, "The spacetime tunnel does not mean that it will only appear after the projection of the Eternal Realm above our heads appears. The appearance of the projection of the Eternal Realm only means that the time for the two realms to converge is just around the corner."

He opened a document and said, "According to some information I've received, channels formed by spacetime disturbances already existed more than a decade, or even decades ago. If someone happened to be in a state of synchronized thought during that time and entered one of them..."

He paused at this point. "The probability is extremely small, but anything can happen on Blue Star. If someone happens to be in the same state of mind when the spacetime channel is formed, it is entirely possible for them to enter that world and then, like Simon, bring back news. So, their exploration of the world of immortals may have started more than ten or even several decades earlier than ours."

"A decade or even several decades!? We've fallen so far behind?"

"The speed at which that country has risen in the past ten years is unbelievable, it's like it's been cheated. Could it be because it obtained a brand new system of technology from the world of immortality?"

"Not long ago, our intelligence agents obtained a document, a document codenamed 'Black Gold,' unlike anything we've ever seen on Blue Star... Could it be..."

The important figures in the room exchanged glances, and some of them found it hard to accept.

The worst thing between people is comparison.

The same applies to nations.

"We were indeed being too cautious. That country's overall strength was far weaker than ours, yet they were able to develop rapidly in that world and establish forward bases. Why can't we?"

"The Immortal Realm is ultimately a feudal society. Information spreads slowly in such a society, which severely restricts its development speed. Perhaps there are a few powerful individuals in it, but what are a few powerful individuals compared to the steel torrent, electromagnetic cannons, laser cannons, hypersonic weapons, and saturation bombing of an industrialized society?"

"We need more soldiers to undergo meditation training. We have fallen behind the other country in the exploration and development of the realm of immortality. So, we must increase investment to narrow the gap between us. At the same time, we must increase our investigation into that country and find out how far they have come."

Amidst the murmurs of discussion, these important figures, who fully represented the will of the Starshine Federation, quickly made their decision.

On one hand, a particle collider is used to open up a spacetime channel, and on the other hand, thought is used to enter the channel in sync to obtain more information.

On one hand, they established the Spirit Light Platform and selected 30,000 soldiers for meditation training in preparation for their full entry into the Realm of Immortality soon.

If the country on the other side could return with a full harvest from the Realm of Immortality, how much more powerful would they be?

The opportunity for development in the Realm of Immortality must be seized by their Star Radiance Federation!

The Starry Federation's dominant position on Blue Star is unshakeable!

To ensure this, they would not hesitate to wage war against the opposing country or even against the world of immortals in the future!
