Chapter 1192 Grandpa's Plan!
Li Yao opened his mouth, really not knowing what to say.
It’s not that he couldn’t refute it, but that he found that he and the old turtle were not on the same channel at all, and what everyone pursued was not the same thing.
Gui Fanshou's face shone with a proud light and said, "Forgeting history is equivalent to destruction. On the other hand, establishing or even creating history is equivalent to eternal life! The ancestors of my clan understood this truth thousands of years ago. From that moment on, we no longer attached to the survival of the demon civilization at the moment, but instead shifted our attention to 'how to leave a spark for the demon civilization'."
"In our opinion, whether it is the efforts of the ancestor Youquan to create the 'third life form' or the tricks played by Jin Tuyi, they are ridiculous and meaningless. Only by preserving the 'fire of the demon civilization' in some way and preserving it for billions of years can the demon civilization be truly immortal, and it can even be inherited in a new way and reborn in some new civilizations!"
"So, the ancestors of my clan no longer became obsessed with fighting against human civilization, but devoted all their energy to extending life. We gave up everything and even spent 90% of our life hibernation, and finally extended life to a thousand years."
"We do not pursue our own immortality, but just to study the rise and fall and essence of our civilization from a longer span."
"In our long life, we collect all historical fragments about the demon civilization, carefully sort them out and connect them together, and build a systematic building of history, legends and myths."
"We also record in detail what is happening, and record the great civilization that ruled the starry sea for 30,000 years, and the final decline and destruction."
"We will properly preserve these history, as well as the most important epics, classics, martial arts, dictionaries, artworks and other civilizations, as well as the essence of the demon civilization, as "fire seeds" or "tombstones", and then shoot these things into all directions of the starry sea, allowing them to drift in the deep and boundless universe until billions of years later, they are discovered by new civilizations or quasi-civilizations, and carry forward the essence of the demon civilization again!"
"This is the mission of my clan, and it is also the way we try to win this 'war of civilization'!"
Li Yao was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
The old man's brain circuit structure was too weird and he could not understand it at all.
Zhou Yifu, a federal historian next to Li Yao, was breathing rapidly and said excitedly: "If you say so, you can also be considered a historian of the demon civilization?"
Zhou Yifu is over 180 years old and is usually respected as "Old Zhou". However, in front of Gui Xianshou, who is over 800 years old, he is still a little kid who is learning to speak!
Gui Fanshou smiled faintly: "It can be said that in the demon civilization, historians who hold my viewpoint are called the 'tombstone school'. We believe that any civilization is inevitably rushing towards death from its birth, so the most important thing is not how to live, but how to create a spectacular, magnificent, exquisite tombstone that embodies all the essence of civilization!"
"The tombstone is there, civilization will last forever; if the tombstone is destroyed, civilization will be truly doomed and will never be reborn!"
"From this perspective, the historian responsible for building the tombstone is the most important profession in a civilization. Two historians of hostile civilizations have created completely opposite historical views and have the most fierce collision. This kind of war without gunpowder is far more thrilling than the warriors of the two tribes flying in the battlefield!"
Zhou Yifu nodded repeatedly, feeling like a soulmate meeting, and said respectfully: "Then, is Gui Lao coming to attend the Nascent Soul Conference this time to record this historic moment?"
“This is just one aspect.”
Gui Fanshou smiled and said, "On the other hand, I also want to take advantage of the opportunity of the Nascent Soul Conference to persuade everyone in the Three Realms, especially you powerful human civilization, to create their own 'fire' and 'tombstones' early, just like us."
"Um?"
Li Yao and Zhou Yifu looked at each other, Li Yao was a little confused, but Zhou Yifu was thinking.
“I am a determined defeatist, and I am, and I am.”
Gui Fanshou said lightly, "In the past, I didn't believe that the demon civilization could defeat the human civilization. Now, of course, I don't believe that the real human empire and the Covenant Alliance in the center of the Star Sea can defeat the extremely powerful real human empire and the Covenant Alliance in the center of the Star Sea!"
"I know, you will definitely not give up. You want to struggle to death no matter what, just like the struggle made by the ancestor Youquan."
"But while struggling, why not sort out and summarize your civilization, condense some of the most essence, and find a way to properly seal it up and shoot it into the depths of the starry sea, and treat it as a 'fire' and 'tombstone'?"
"In this way, even if the final resistance fails, the Starry Flag Federation and the Three Realms will be completely destroyed, and at least there is a little something that proves that we once existed."
Li Yao clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said, "We will definitely, absolutely, never lose!"
Gui Xianshou smiled and said calmly: "My friend Li Yao, do you know? The more frequent you use the word "absolute" when you speak, the less confident you are in this matter. You can only rely on these two words to hypnotize yourself."
Li Yao was speechless and scratched his head hard.
Zhou Yifu pondered: "I also firmly believe that victory must belong to the Federation, but I am not afraid of 10,000, but I am afraid that if we win, even if our probability of winning is as high as 99%, it seems that there is nothing wrong with planning for the 1% failure. I don't know what plans does Gui Lao have, and what does your "civilized fire" and "civilized tombstone" look like?"
"Tinder and tombstones are just a saying, and it shouldn't even be some large ruins that can be easily found."
Gui Sanshou expressed his plan readily, "because the large ruins are too easy to be discovered by our enemies, and in the long river of billions of years, they are too easy to be destroyed by waves."
"The 'civilized fire' I imagined should be something very small, similar to chips and... rings, yes, something like the Qiankun Ring."
"It's just that the Qiankun Ring is used to store a large amount of matter and entity, while this new ring is used to store a huge amount of spirit and information."
"We can compress the history, culture and art crystallization of our respective civilizations, the most powerful technology and martial arts...massive information into this ring."
"In order to facilitate the analysis and learning of the ring by the new civilization, some kind of 'guider' or 'teacher' can be stored in the ring."
"There can be two solutions to the existence of this 'guider'."
"First, bringing together a large number of ideas, supplemented by powerful computing power, create a highly developed 'artificial intelligence'."
"Secondly, save the souls of some volunteers, enter a long hibernation state, and sleep in the ring for billions of years until they are discovered by a new civilization."
"My friend Li Yao, don't look at me with such eyes. I didn't say that I wanted to extract the souls of living people. Aren't there many ghost cultivators in the Federation? They have no entity themselves, they are a collection of psychic fluctuations containing super huge amounts of information. If they can develop a secret method and imprint their fluctuations, they can hibernate in the ring for longer than living people. Even if they span billions of years, they will have the chance to wake up."
Li Yao was completely frightened by the crazy idea of Gui Sanshou.
The Demon Emperor is the Demon Emperor, and the plan he came up with is full of evil spirits no matter how he looks at it!
Gui Fanshou smiled and said, "If we can refine ten thousand such rings, seal the souls of ten thousand ghost cultivators in it, and shoot them all into the starry sea, then what if we are now destroyed by the real human empire or the Holy Covenant Alliance?"
"Imagine a picture like this. When billions of years later, all the old civilizations are destroyed among the stardust, and the new civilization is just beginning to sprout and is still in the dark age of ignorance."
"At this time, an ordinary boy in the new civilization may be a boy whose family is in trouble, ridiculed and trampled."
"Suddenly one day, he accidentally got a mysterious ring, and a powerful and omniscient one popped up in the ring... so he called this 'guilder' 'old grandpa'."
"With the help of the old man, this down-and-out boy of the new civilization inherited our huge civilization inheritance, mastered the mysterious magical secret techniques, passed through the hurdles, advanced wildly, and soared forward, and finally established his own dynasty and his own era!"
"Such a dynasty and era will of course be deeply imprinted with traces of our civilization. Who can say that this is not a new form of human civilization or demon civilization?"
As a ghost cultivator, Wei Qingqing had a subtle fluctuation in his crystal eyes and murmured: "The sea of stars is vast. Even if there are really ten thousand 'civilized fire rings', the chance of being discovered by the new civilization is too low, right?"
"You don't understand, little girl."
Gui Sanshou said calmly, "Any little chance, multiplied by billions of years, will expand to a very likely level! To put it simply, as long as the time is long enough, any miracle can happen, it is just a matter of time."
"At that time, our civilization will be reborn in this way and recreate the glory of billions of years ago. The real human empire and the covenant alliance that we are afraid of now will no longer exist in a single dust!"
"This is my way to fight against the real human empire and the Covenant Alliance. It is a protracted war that will take a billion or even ten billion years!"
"Let me think about it, just call this plan the 'tombstone plan'. If you think it's too pessimistic, it doesn't matter if you call it the 'Grandpa plan'." (To be continued.)
