Only One Question Remained: Did This Place Have a Universe?

Two days later, Yi Xuan took a quantum communication device and went to the Supreme Elder's place again.

On the one hand, the five rotary printers had just returned, which meant that the old lady's palace was completed, Yi Xuan, as the designer of the rotary printers, had to go and see how it turned out.

On the other hand, he wanted to take this opportunity to test the quantum communication device again.

Although we know that quantum communication and electromagnetic wave communication are completely different in principle, one communicates through electromagnetic wave transmission and the other communicates through quantum entanglement.

But without actually testing it, Yi Xuan always felt uncertain.

After all, the Immortal Script of this world had already given him too many surprises.

First, there's the scientific system hidden within Puppet Technique; then there's the space-folding technology of the Artifact Sect Great Hall; then there's the Nascent Soul Realm cultivator's ability to perceive electromagnetic waves; and even the counter-reconnaissance design on the Firmament that infiltrated the Azure Cloud Sect's security formation.

Yi Xuan truly couldn't imagine what other shocks this world of cultivators would bring him, or perhaps it was a case of the great Dao being simple, and all paths leading to the same destination?

Will all civilizations and technologies ultimately lead to the same result?

Yi Xuan didn't know, after all, whether it was cultivation or technology, his current level was only scratching the surface.

However, one day in the future, he will surely be able to explore the essence of this world. At that time, he will know whether all civilizations will ultimately converge or each have their own unique strengths. Yi Xuan firmly believes in this.

Upon reaching the mountaintop, the plaza has been completely transformed, with a simple yet elegant hall rising from the ground and standing tall in the center of the plaza.

The old lady was like a child who had just received a toy, looking here and there.

Yi Xuan didn't go forward to disturb them. It wasn't until the old lady noticed him that she spoke with a satisfied expression, "Young Yi, you really have a knack for this. This palace is exactly the same as when it was first completed. I just went inside and saw that even the interior is exactly the same!"

Seeing the old lady so pleased, Yi Xuan also smiled, thinking to himself, "It's not that I'm amazing, it's that you're amazing, sir, to have memorized this palace so meticulously. I've merely reconstructed it based on your memories!"

The Supreme Elder was over nine hundred years old after all, and his excitement just now was simply because this palace held too many memories and longings for him.

Having protected the Azure Cloud Sect for so many years, he certainly knew that indulging in memories was not a good thing. So he quickly adjusted his emotions, but Yi Xuan could still see a smile flickering in his eyes.

"By the way, those five giant spiders that were flying in the sky left half an hour ago!"

The Supreme Elder thought Yi Xuan had come to retrieve the rotary printer, so he reminded him.

But Yi Xuan shook his head and took out a quantum communication device from his Storage Bag.

At first, the old lady didn't care when Yi Xuan took the black box out of the Storage Bag.

But after taking a couple of glances, I realized something was off. Why did this thing look so depressing?

Yi Xuan could also see the bad mood in the old lady's eyes, and then looked down at the box in his arms.

Suddenly, Yi Xuan realized that it did look rather strange to give this thing to the old lady, so he quickly explained, "Elder, it's not what you think. This isn't for you. I have a favor to ask of you!"

The old lady, of course, understood that Yi Xuan wouldn't be so bold, so she nodded and said, "Speak! What is it?"

So Yi Xuan told the old lady his request to help test the effects of quantum communication.

The old lady naturally wouldn't refuse such a trivial favor.

So, within the envelope of the old woman's Divine Sense, Yi Xuan activated the quantum communication device.

The process of sending and receiving data remains the same.

When the instruments on Yi Xuan's side finally showed that the signal had been received, the Supreme Elder, growing impatient, asked, "Yi boy, you've been rambling on for ages, when are we going to start?"

"Uh, it's over!"

"What? When did this happen? So fast?"

"Just now! Didn't you feel anything?"

"Just now? But I didn't feel anything?"

Although their conversation was a bit strange, Yi Xuan couldn't care less about that anymore.

Just as he guessed, Nascent Soul expert's Divine Sense can detect electromagnetic waves, but it cannot detect quantum mechanics.

My communication relies on quantum entanglement. No matter how far apart the particles are, there is no connection between them. Even if you, a cultivator, have the strongest Divine Sense, what can you do if there's nothing for you to perceive?

Now, Yi Xuan's quantum communication technology is basically ready for implementation, and the success of the prototype can be completely replicated.

Regarding the deployment of quantum communication, Yi Xuan now faces only two paths: satellite communication and the large-scale deployment of base stations.

Yi Xuan chose the former without even thinking.

Since they've all come to the Cultivation Realm, why would the ghost choose to deploy base stations on a large scale? What if they run into a fight between two Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivators right after they've been deployed? Wouldn't Yi Xuan's efforts have been in vain?

Moreover, the fighting spirit among cultivators in this world is undeniably strong. If base stations covering the entire Cultivation Realm were truly laid out, Yi Xuan wouldn't need to do anything else; he could just spend all his time repairing base stations.

Now that the plan is in place and the quantum device has been developed, the quantum satellite is not a big deal for Yi Xuan.

At this moment, Yi Xuan faced two more problems. One was that he lacked the capability to launch satellites, namely, rockets.

Fortunately, the technology is mature, and given Yi Xuan's current technological capabilities, rockets are not particularly complex.

By repeating the experiment a few times and accumulating data, Yi Xuan can achieve his desired goal.

So, only one question remains, which is also the one that Yi Xuan is most worried about and most uncertain about.

Is the world outside of this cultivator's world truly the universe?

After all, cultivators already exist, so Yi Xuan felt that even if the composition of this world was different from the universe of his previous life, he could understand it.

Fortunately, Yi Xuan learned from the data of the Firmament's daily flight that this world was not the flat, round world imagined by the ancients of his previous life; it was at least a planet!

Furthermore, the sun in this world rises in the east and sets in the west as usual, so the situation described in the mythical primordial world of my previous life should not occur.

Thinking of this, Yi Xuan looked at the old elder and asked, "Elder? I remember you told me before that you could use your Divine Sense to explore up to ten thousand meters in the air when you were riding a flying magical Law Artifact?"

"Good!"

"Do you know where someone would end up if they kept flying into the sky?"

Upon hearing Yi Xuan's words, the Supreme Elder looked at Yi Xuan with some surprise. He hadn't expected Yi Xuan to be curious about this matter, so he pointed to another rocking chair in front of him, gesturing for Yi Xuan to sit down.

"A long time ago, someone did indeed try to explore the Heaven Beyond Heaven!"
