Emperor Lin's Predicament
For Yi Xuan at this stage, his aerospace technology is only in its early stages.
Even with the help of the Book of Technology, it would still take at least several hundred years to reach the level of the High Antiquity Artifact Sect.
Now, with the inheritance of the High Antiquity Artifact Sect, this time will be greatly shortened.
In other words, as long as Yi Xuan thoroughly understands the inheritance of the High Antiquity Artifact Sect, he will have the potential to travel through space.
Note that this is only a possibility, not a certainty.
While a high-performance engine is indeed indispensable for interstellar travel, a complete interstellar spacecraft includes much more than just an engine.
At the very least, it needs a high-strength spacecraft hull and a life support system capable of sustaining the normal survival of living organisms.
This includes oxygen circulation systems, water circulation systems, environmental control and life support systems, food supply systems, waste treatment systems, and so on.
Even though Yi Xuan is now in the Cultivation Realm, the need for these things among cultivators has been greatly reduced.
However, compared to long-distance space travel, even cultivators at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm still cannot avoid relying on these.
As for the so-called Cultivation Realm Grain Avoidance in the cultivation world, this can only be established in the Cultivation Realm.
It seems that after cultivators pass through the Grain Avoidance Realm, they lose their need for water and food.
But in reality, it's because cultivators who reach that level can sustain their biological needs by absorbing water and Spiritual Qi from the environment.
However, once they were in outer space, Yi Xuan had no way to create air containing Spiritual Qi energy.
In other words, in outer space, the difference between cultivators and ordinary people is that cultivators have stronger endurance.
It is possible that, after losing their life-sustaining supplies, cultivators can endure for a longer period of time than ordinary people due to their powerful physique and the energy stored in their bodies.
However, he ultimately could not escape death.
Furthermore, hibernation systems and gravity simulation systems are also indispensable during long-duration space voyages.
These are just the basic requirements for space travel. Once all of them are met, the spacecraft is nothing more than a fast-moving jar.
A true spaceship capable of interstellar travel has far more functions than just these few; they are countless.
Having understood the contents of the inheritance, Yi Xuan decisively ordered No. 01 to begin a full-scale analysis of the engine technology within the inheritance, while the Good Corpse was also summoned back by Yi Xuan.
Yi Xuan sent him to No. 2 Base, entrusting him with overseeing all interstellar technologies and granting him full access to the Book of Technology to the Good Corpse.
Yi Xuan gave the Good Corpse the green light in terms of technology, resources, and personnel.
As long as he needs it, even the Evil Corpse and Yi Xuan are secondary to him.
From that day on, Yi Xuan's No. 2 Base became even busier.
As for Yi Xuan, after handing over all the aerospace work to the Good Corpse, he began his research on Immortal Qi while keeping an eye on the manufacturing progress of the underwater army.
Originally, Yi Xuan's research on Immortal Qi was geared towards weaponry, since Immortal Qi was indeed incredibly lethal to cultivators. If it could be applied to weapons, then Yi Xuan would essentially have absolute military dominance over this world.
But after the old man appeared, Yi Xuan suddenly realized that the Immortal Qi might not pose the kind of threat he had imagined to some people in this world.
They are the Loose Immortal.
However, afterwards, Yi Xuan repeatedly watched the video recording the old man and had No. 01 conduct countless analyses.
The final conclusion reached was that the Immortal Qi should have a strong suppressive effect on nuclear radiation.
However, Yi Xuan's only wisp of Immortal Qi was currently stored in the underwater base.
After the previous nuclear explosion, the radiation levels there were abnormally high.
Although Yi Xuan had radiation protection measures, the base's electronic equipment had been destroyed by nuclear radiation, meaning that only Yi Xuan himself could enter the room where the Immortal Qi was stored.
Even though he knew his radiation protection methods were safe, Yi Xuan didn't want to take any risks.
As for the idea of forcibly demolishing the room, Yi Xuan had considered it, but ultimately decided against it because he was worried that it would also destroy the protective barrier that preserves the Immortal Qi.
Therefore, Yi Xuan, who was not short of money, finally chose to transport Immortal Qi from the space station. This time, to be on the safe side, he sent down more than a dozen strands of immortal energy from the space station.
Afterwards, watching the sea army that had begun to enter the Eternal Sea in batches, Yi Xuan devoted all his energy to the research of Immortal Qi.
Meanwhile, in the Sea Emperor City, Emperor Lin, who had fled back in a sorry state a month ago, finally emerged from seclusion.
However, the first thing he did after emerging from seclusion was not to seek revenge on Yi Xuan, but to gather his disciples together.
Seeing the grim faces of the many disciples kneeling below, Emperor Lin smiled and said, "What's wrong? Why do you all look so pale? Oh! By the way, there must be quite a few rumors circulating about me these days, right?"
Faced with the question posed by the eccentric Emperor Lin, none of the disciples below dared to respond.
Who knows what that old man is thinking? If I upset him again, I'm in trouble.
For the disciples of the Emperor Lin, silence was their best protection.
However, sometimes, being too silent isn't necessarily a good thing.
The principle of "the law does not punish the masses" does not apply to Emperor Lin. To his disciples, he is the law!
Emperor Lin's eldest disciple naturally understood this principle. Seeing his junior brothers and sisters remain silent, he could only grit his teeth and step forward. "Master, the rumors outside are indeed speculating that you were seriously injured! But now it seems that rumors are just rumors. Master looks perfectly fine, there's no sign of injury at all!"
The disciples behind him all nodded in agreement after hearing their senior brother's words.
Even Emperor Lin on stage had a smile on his face.
But his own family knows his own affairs best, Emperor Lin knows them all too well.
After a month of seclusion, the superficial injuries had indeed healed, but a strange energy remained within his body, constantly damaging it.
Emperor Lin tried everything he could to eliminate those energies, but to no avail.
That energy seemed to have become a part of my body, and I couldn't get rid of it at all.
This has resulted in Emperor Lin appearing to be in good condition.
However, his body was in turmoil. Nuclear radiation was constantly damaging his body, while his internal True Essence was constantly repairing it, thus achieving a balance between the two.
All Emperor Lin could do was make himself appear to be fine, but in reality, he had used up a lot of his True Essence to combat nuclear radiation, which meant he could only exert the strength of Mahayana Realm Perfection at this moment!
