Chapter 833
by post_apiChapter 833: The First Stargate
In the year 7860 of the Blue Star Xia calendar, Huaxia
Lin Jiang and Cao Ying, along with most of Huaxia’s Tao Achieving and Transmigration Stage cultivators, gathered together as Cao Ying began to use the Stargate Secret Technique.
"Not enough, add more people."
Cao Ying said a word, and Lin Jiang immediately stepped forward to supply his spiritual energy.
"Not enough, add more."
Cao Ying repeated, and then Cao Wang stepped forward to supply his spiritual energy.
"Not enough…"
"Not enough…"
Cao Ying said again and again, one by one the Tao Achievers stepped forward, all contributing their strength.
When the experts from Huaxia arrived, the Demon Queen joined in, followed by the Shenwu Demon Emperor and the Fire Scale Demon Emperor. As soon as more than half of the demon race experts joined, Cao Ying felt a surge of energy.
"Enter."
Then Cao Ying said one word, and the remaining people walked into the Stargate, while Cao Ying and the others also entered the Stargate one after another.
The Stargate slowly closed, and the next moment, they found themselves near the Kunlun Mountains of Jiang Star.
"Master."
Ye Chen had been waiting and rushed over to greet Lin Jiang when he saw him.
Lin Jiang greeted Ye Chen, while everyone curiously gazed at Jiang Star. Among them, only Liang Long had been to Jiang Star before.
"Master, does the Stargate Secret Technique count as a true success?"
"Yes, but there are many problems, so it may not be a method for regular use."
Lin Jiang said that using the Stargate Secret Technique has two key points. The first is to determine the location; this is a signal issue. You must know the place in order to use it.
The problem is that the Buddhist sect sends out many signals at once and records the places where the signals appear, but this is not very accurate. That is why the people from the Buddhist sect could not appear on Cape III. On the other hand, Huaxia uses quantum communication, which improves signal accuracy and is much more powerful than the Buddhist approach.
The second issue is energy. Opening the Stargate requires a huge amount of energy. For example, the distance from Blue Star to Jiang Star is about eight light-years, and it took about twenty Tao Achievers and more than twenty Demon Emperors, with four of them being at the Transmigration Stage. If only a few people are involved, they may only be able to cover a short distance.
This is also why the Buddhist sect took so long to launch a full attack on Blue Star; Lingjing Star, from which they come, is over a hundred light-years away from Blue Star, so the energy needed would be much greater.
"I heard Cao Wang say that it is possible to build a permanent Stargate."
"In theory, it is feasible, but it is not possible at the moment. Our technology is still not enough."
Lin Jiang said that if they could establish a permanent Stargate, it would be the best option. Even if opening it once requires a huge amount of energy, it would still be less than flying for hundreds of years. However, fixing this secret technique is a field that the Buddhist sect has not ventured into; it is still being researched, with Liang Long and Zhu Bin leading a team to solve the problem. If they succeed, it might be the greatest invention in a thousand years for Blue Star.
"What a pity! If it were possible, then Jiang Star could directly support Blue Star without all this hassle."
"Well, let’s talk about this slowly. How is Jiang Star doing now?"
"Pretty good."
"What about Small Shadiao?"
"It seems like it went to play in space. It’s been a few hundred years. Jiang Star is getting tired of it. Recently, it has fallen in love with space again, making friends with a few female cultivators and taking them to space to play."
"This guy."
Lin Jiang was speechless. He was working very hard on Blue Star, while this guy was having a great time on Jiang Star. It’s really envy-inducing.
"Give it something to do. In the future, you supervise its training. Don’t let it be too happy, or I’ll get jealous."
Lin Jiang said immediately. He couldn’t let Small Shadiao be too happy; otherwise, he would really get jealous. Why should it be so carefree while he was so tired?
A group of people was exploring Jiang Star, especially Li Qing and a few high-level members of the demon race, who were very interested in Jiang Star. This was a whole planet! They weren’t looking at the scenery; they were looking at profit, the shining spirit stones!
Lin Jiang and Cao Ying have never been to Jiang Star. Although they have watched many videos and pictures, seeing them is not the same as being here in person.
Ye Chen became a tour guide and explained the situation of Jiang Star to everyone. Now, Jiang Star has a population of over fifteen million, with more than eight million immigrants from Blue Star, while the rest are new generations born on Jiang Star. Among the immigrants, over three million have already passed away, and the new generation makes up the majority.
The population of over fifteen million is spread across sixteen cities and more than one hundred towns. Their living standards, compared to Blue Star, are all at a higher level, even for the poorest. Of course, Jiang Star does not support idleness; everyone is expected to work.
The industries of Jiang Star mainly focus on agriculture and manufacturing. There is almost no financial industry, and the service sector is mostly run by various robots. The industrial sector does not have much advanced technology, mainly focusing on mineral processing, alongside some activities related to spaceships, which mostly involve mining, initial processing, and deep processing.
As for agriculture, it mainly involves growing various herbs, spiritual rice, and spiritual fruits. There are almost no flowers, as the focus is on serving Blue Star.
"It seems that the development of Jiang Star has not yet reached its limits."
"Master, there is actually not much. For example, the ocean of Jiang Star has a utilization rate of less than one percent. The population of Jiang Star is very insufficient, and relying solely on robots is unrealistic. If Jiang Star is developed to the same extent as Blue Star, just the spiritual rice could provide one hundred million tons to Blue Star each year without any problem."
"It seems we still need to find a way to encourage immigration and improve the population structure of Jiang Star."
Lin Jiang said that the number of immigrants to Jiang Star is too low and the new generation population is too large. This leads to the new generation viewing Jiang Star as their homeland, which is not beneficial for Blue Star’s control over Jiang Star.
"Master, there are many benefits to doing this well. We should plan quickly. Of course, I also want to return to serve Blue Star; it is quite boring here."
"What’s wrong? Is your hand itching?"
"Yes."
Ye Chen admitted without any concern that his youth was spent in battles. He had watched videos of the wars between Blue Star and the Buddhist sect, which made his blood boil.
"I will arrange for your return then."
Lin Jiang said that his personal disciple was not just Ye Chen. He had others helping him control some dark powers in Blue Star. This time, the war in Blue Star revealed a lot, and these people would slowly start appearing in public. When the time comes, he would arrange for them to come to Jiang Star to take turns watching over things.

"So beautiful! This is another world, Leader. If there was a world like this in Ying Continent, how could our Wangxian Sect not thrive?"
Zheng Yi said, as he also controlled a certain power, he could see the benefits of Jiang Star. Even planting the lowest-level spiritual paddy would be a huge quantity. You must know that Jiang Star has over five billion acres of spiritual land.
"I know, but Jiang Star cannot give it to us."
"Master, will Ancestor Lin keep his promise? If I break my word, we have no way to counter him."
"Yes, I can trust him to that extent. I have talked with Cao Ying, and if we successfully counterattack Lingjing Star, it will be shared by our three families. Luckily, Lingjing Star has three continents, one for each of us."
"This…"
"We don’t have the ability to truly own a planet. Actually, uniting around Huaxia is the best outcome. We need to stay low and proceed slowly, without rushing."
Li Qing said, as she had seen it clearly. She had been very foolish before, always opposing Huaxia, and only realized after being defeated that they were far behind compared to Huaxia.
Of course, Li Qing’s ambition had not faded; she dreamed that one day Ying Continent could also own a planet, matching Huaxia, or even surpassing it.
At the same time, the Demon Queen and Demon Emperor Shenwu and others were also discussing. The Demon Queen had come to Jiang Star in disguise, but that Jiang Star was nothing like the current one; the present Jiang Star still amazed her.
"Demon Queen, I really want such a planet."
"Yes, Demon Queen, to control a planet is true freedom, and for our demon race to rise, we need our own planet."
"I know, and I also long for it, which is why I chose to work with Huaxia."
"Demon Queen, when can we have a planet?"
Shenwu Demon Emperor said, he was very envious of Huaxia now, as they controlled a planet. He even dreamed of having his own special planet as Shenwu Demon Emperor.
"There is no hope in the short term, but Lin Jiang promised that if we successfully counterattack Lingjing Star, he will give us a continent, about twice the size of the current Fangzhang Continent. With Lingjing Star as a base, we can go and conquer a planet ourselves."
"Demon Queen, is there really a world for us to conquer?"
"Don’t worry, there will definitely be. The universe is vast, and we cannot measure it. Huaxia calculated that the universe exceeds a million light-years, and the observable worlds are more than one hundred thousand light-years away. There are over one hundred thousand star systems similar to our solar system, and according to the probability for the human race, planets with life will not be rare."
"A million light-years means flying at the speed of light for a million years?"
"Yes."
"Hiss"
"How big could it be?"
The two Demon Emperors were a bit confused; this distance was beyond their imagination. Even though they were at level eight and flying at their fastest speed, they couldn’t reach even one-tenth of the speed of light. A million light-years? Wouldn’t it take them millions of years to fly that far?
"I don’t know how big it is. I only know that Huaxia’s heart is much stronger than the demon race."
The Demon Queen’s gaze was also clouded. She had the bloodline of the Aurora Falcon, the fastest flyer among the demon race, yet she couldn’t measure the size of the universe. She couldn’t even imagine it because a million light-years was a very conservative estimate. The true size of the universe measured by Huaxia might be tens of billions of light-years, far more than they could imagine.
