Chapter 1654

Li Yao could clearly sense the wavering of Cui Ling's spirit, just like the wavering starlight in the Dark Universe. He could not help but hastily say: "Your Excellency, you are not bewitched by the so-called" Xiuxian 2.0 "of LV Qingchen and Ding Zhengyang, are you?"

"No

Cui Lingfeng shook his head and said, "long before Ding Zhengyang said all this, even as early as ten years ago, when we met another cultivator civilization on the edge of Xinghai sea, Xingyao Federation, I had been thinking about these problems.

"Do you know why I have always resisted and completely integrated into the starshine Federation? The stubborn pride of the Republic of Xinghai and the distrust of the Federation are certainly one aspect, but more importantly, perhaps more importantly, the suspicion of... Ourselves.

"The former Xinghai Republic, a great country in the golden age that has not yet bred the monster" black star Emperor Wu Yingqi ", is certainly worthy of pride.

"But then, after Wu Yingqi's birth, is the" orthodox government "still proud of its thousand years of exile in the sea of stars?

"Once our integration with Xingyao Federation accelerates, all our efforts to survive in the past 1000 years will be fully exposed, and the secrets that are deeply locked in the speaker's office may not be so passionate, stirring, sobbing and aboveboard!

"I don't know what the feds will think of us once all those files are declassified and they know everything that's happened on the firefly in the past 1000 years.

"Will they still regard us as' true practitioners'? Or will they regard us as another form, a degenerating and miniature 'immortal civilization', so as to dislike us, refuse us and guard us?

"See, perhaps, from the bottom of my heart, I'm not refusing to join the Federation, but I'm afraid that the Federation will refuse us after finding out all the truth!"

Li Yao took a deep breath and felt that under the reflection of the deep sea of stars, Cui Lingfeng was very different.

Perhaps this is the real side of the supreme speaker of the Xinghai Republic.

After experiencing so much darkness, lies and struggles, there is only a thin line between him, all the people on board, and the immortals such as Ding Zhengyang and Cheng xuansu.

Cui Lingfeng looked at the Crystal Dome and let the stars pierce his old and weak body like an arrow. He said: "but we have no choice.

"I don't know whether Lu Qingchen's" Xiuxian 2.0 "is universally applicable, but at least on the firefly, it seems irrefutable - if we haven't met the Xingyao Federation all the time, and go into exile all the way to the desolate and hairless place in the universe, the Starship will be more and more dilapidated and the resources will be less and less, But if the population is increasing rapidly, how long can the so-called Xiuzhen Avenue last? In the end, without the erosion and bewitching of Human Empire, we will automatically become the most terrible cultivators!

"The resources in the universe are limited, and the explosion of life can be unlimited. Extreme lack of resources is the normal state of the universe. All of us, whether the Federation, Empire, holy alliance or Republic, are just living on a bigger firefly, heading towards the darkness of ignorance. Therefore, we should follow the path of cultivating immortals in the universe, What is your opinion on such a theory, Captain Lin? "

Li Yao was silent for a long time under the icy starlight, until Cui Lingfeng thought that he could not answer such a question at all. He waved his hand in frustration. Just as he was about to end the conversation, he suddenly said: "Mr speaker, there are cockroaches on the firefly."

Cui Lingfeng was stunned: "of course."

"And there's more than one. At least if I let out a few wisps of ideas, I can sense more than a dozen different mutant species from every corner."

Li Yaodao said, "if we just use the word" survival ", cockroaches are a very successful species. They are not only more successful than human beings, but also more successful than our father's civilization, whether Pangu civilization or Nuwa civilization!

"According to the research of archaeologists and historians, even if our father civilizations, Pangu and Nuwa, were from the rise to the fall, that is, hundreds of thousands to a million years ago, the" life span "of the whole civilization would not exceed one or two million years.

"But cockroaches appeared at least 350 million years ago. So far, the life span of this species is 300 times longer than that of Pangu and Nuwa!

"For 350 million years, countless brilliant races and civilizations that once dominated the universe have been destroyed. Dinosaur civilization, Pangu and Nu Wa, demon clan... The powerful, invincible overlord and splendid civilization of the past have all been annihilated in the waves of time.

"But the little cockroach has survived tenaciously, and with the pace of various prehistoric strongmen conquering the universe, it has expanded to all parts of the world, and developed hundreds of millions of varieties, no matter in the dark, cold, almost empty abandoned starships; In the desert planet with a surface temperature of more than 100 degrees and rolling yellow sand; In the freezing planet where water drips into ice and is extremely cold, cockroaches can adapt to the environment quickly and live well wherever they go.

"Although I'm not sure, it's at least 99% possible that one day, when our human civilization is completely extinct, cockroaches will not be extinct. No matter how bad or cruel the environment is, they will continue to" evolve "and survive for a billion years or even longer!

"In this sense, our human civilization, maybe just a passer-by of the universe, cockroaches - is eternity."

Cui Lingfeng finally turned back and stared at Li Yao, frowning: "Captain Lin, what do you want to say?"

Li Yaodao: "I would like to say that if the meaning of a civilization evolution is just to make itself survive for a longer time, then" Xiuxian Avenue "is by no means the best choice for human beings, and" repairing cockroach Avenue "is the optimal solution. We should come up with a way to give up everything we have, through gene modulation or various cultivation techniques, from our fragile body, To useless kindness, kindness and morality, turn everyone into some kind of cockroach - suppose that under certain circumstances, the firefly really falls into the dark, everyone fights each other, and the survivors all become immortals, but you still can't survive the cockroaches on board, right? "

Cui Lingfeng was silent and deep in thought.

"Do you think I'm sophisticating?"

Li Yao smiles and opens his arms to the sea of stars. "In fact, these days, I have been thinking about the words of" immortal Lu "of the emperor's Council, the so-called" Xiuxian 2.0 ". At first glance, it sounds good. Indeed, darkness is the main color of the universe. The law of the jungle and the survival of the fittest are the" principles of nature. ".

"But then it occurred to me that the word" civilization "was meant to change the universe against nature? Since our earliest ancestors lit the first flame and set fire to mountains on an unknown planet, we have been changing the planet under our feet and the universe above us step by step. Such changes are good or bad, and sometimes even lead to disastrous consequences. However, our progress has never stopped, biting our teeth and persisting bit by bit, Use our will to change the universe, conquer the universe, and be enemies of the universe. The so-called "fighting heaven and earth, having endless fun" is exactly what it is!

"The universe is so vast and powerful. As a result of being the enemy of the universe, nine times out of ten, they are crushed into vermicelli. Therefore, the immortals give in and shrink back. They are loyal to the Dark Universe and surrender to the cruel nature. They allow the" wisdom of the universe "to change them and obliterate the" human nature "that our ancestors have worked hard for more than 100000 years.

"Even so, what good results can the immortal civilization get? No matter how they grovel, compromise, give up everything and constantly change themselves, they can't live longer than cockroaches!

"No, no, in my opinion, only the race that dares to declare war on the universe with its own will is qualified to be called" civilization ". A" civilization "is born to conquer the universe and carry out its civilization to every corner of the sea of stars!

"Without such determination, no matter how powerful the magic power or force is, it's just driven by the instinct to survive. It's just a poor plaything created by the universe!

"Therefore, it's useless to have 100 cents in 2.0 or 5.0. In my opinion, it's not qualified to be called" the civilization of the immortal cultivator ". It's just a group of steel cockroaches living in the sea of stars.

"Perhaps they have pointed out some of the natural principles and the laws of the universe. In the words of the ancient times, have they realized the" way of heaven "? The way of heaven is mighty, and Shunchang goes against the heaven! If you come out to repair the truth, even if you dare not go against the heaven, you can repair the fart! "

The more he said, the more excited he was. He danced and spat.

Cui Lingfeng looked at him in a dazed way, and suddenly burst into laughter. He was red in the face and out of breath. Every wrinkle on his face was trembling, as if he had accumulated depression in his heart. All the darkness and haze of the past 1000 years were laughing out.

"I finally completely believe that you are not an immortal."

He burst into turbid tears with a smile. "The immortal can't say such a thing. Even if he pretends, he can't pretend to do it. Give it to --"

He handed a silver coloured jade slip to Li Yao. "This is the key of the" orthodox government "Confidential Information Center. It has been kept by Cheng xuansu in the past. It records all the glory and glory of the golden age of the Xinghai Republic, as well as all the darkness and ugliness of the exile age, including things like the" rebirth plan ". Anyway, They are an integral part of the five words "Xinghai Republic."

Li Yao blinked, and finally knew the purpose of Cui Lingfeng's conversation with him.

It seems to be a special test.

Now, he passed the test and got... The history of Xinghai Republic.
