metaverse evolution.

After returning to his residence, Chu Fei did not continue his retreat, not because he was lax, but because he had too many things to do. The conversation with Wu Yong made Chu Fei's thoughts tumble and it was difficult for him to calm down.

Afterwards, Chu Fei and Jiang Shumin, the three Dharma protectors, used a telescope to observe the secret realm of stars in the distance.

At this time, there were beams of searchlights on the ground shooting straight into the sky; more than 3,000 meters in the sky, a large number of airships appeared, also shining with bright lights.

Under the bright light, everything in the secret realm of stars is clearly visible, although it is still a dark cloud now.

Time passed slowly and it came to 22:42. The dark clouds surrounding the Starry Secret Realm began to dissipate.

Soon, most of the "dark clouds" in the sky dissipated, and finally a "bubble" structure was revealed, in which a flat pyramid building could be vaguely seen.

In fact, including the wide edge area, the internal structure is more like a straw hat structure, but this straw hat has a pointed top.

The bubble split in two, the lower half was a rolling cloud, thick as ink;
The upper part is a straw hat structure, the edge of the straw hat is fused with the bubble. At the location Chu Fei saw, there is a huge semicircular arch. According to the proportion, it is probably three hundred meters wide, or 150 meters in radius.

This is the import and export, there are four such import and export.

“终于显现了。”楚飞忍不住惊叹一声，“推测说是80%的可能在5月16日22点~23点出现，还真是这个时间出现了。”

Jiang Shumin continued to observe with the telescope, and said: "I found some ghosts floating in the secret realm of stars, and there really are passengers coming."

Chu Fei looked again, but saw nothing.

Jiang Shumin: "Use ultraviolet vision. Oh, I don't know if you have ultraviolet vision."

Chu Fei immediately switched to ultraviolet vision, and this time he saw a blurry shadow flashing in the Starry Secret Realm. The shadow was very small, after all, it was dark, and Chu Fei was far away. But if you look closely, you can still see a shadow like a thread flashing by.

Considering that the Starry Secret Realm has the technology to contain the Sumeru Mountain in a mustard seed, it appears to have a diameter of ten kilometers from the outside, but is actually more than five hundred kilometers in diameter from the inside. So these seemingly faint filaments are likely to be huge monsters.

Considering that these "passengers" can cause changes in the "dark clouds" before the secret realm of stars was revealed, the abilities of these monsters must be extraordinary.

The "dark clouds" before the secret realm of the stars was revealed were actually changes in the laws. So it was roughly equivalent to these "passengers" causing changes in the laws!

Therefore, it is better to stay hidden for the Star Realm this time. Anyway, it is expected to be open for 280 hours this year, so you can wait for others to explore before entering.

As the secret realm of stars appeared, Chu Fei saw airships and hot air balloons flying towards the entrance, but they were not flying fast.

In addition to airships and hot air balloons, there are a few masters who can stand in the air, and practitioners with wings or wing-shaped equipment can fly directly. As for airplanes, there are also some, but they are very rare. All of them have levitation technology, and there are even a few helicopters.

Soon, more than a dozen airships, hot air balloons, and fighter jets gathered at the entrance. Chu Fei was amazed to see that everyone was actually using machine guns, lasers, and other weapons to sweep the entrance.

Chu Fei seemed to see shadows rolling, as if something was beaten to pieces.

No bombs were used at the scene, only machine guns were used to fire. If they encountered a particularly difficult enemy, armor-piercing bullets were used.

Don't think that bombs are powerful. In terms of attack power per unit area, machine guns are stronger than bombs. Machine guns can penetrate tanks, but bombs can't. When Chu Fei attacked the 10.0 zombies, ordinary bombs had no effect.

Now Chu Fei can withstand oversized shells even with all his defense.

Seeing this scene, Chu Fei silently mourned for three seconds for these "passengers" in the other world. They must have come to the lower world to buy goods by hitchhiking, but they didn't expect that the lower world had abundant martial virtues.

Although machine guns and other weapons are useless to creatures like ghosts, there are still lasers, particle cannons and other weapons. With so many weapons, there must be some effect.

Suddenly Chu Fei saw a shadow crossing the line of fire and rushing towards an airship.

As a result, a brilliant sword energy suddenly burst out from the airship, spreading for hundreds of meters and splitting the shadow with a bang.

Seeing this, Chu Fei couldn't help but say: "Tsk, it seems that everyone is familiar with it."

Jiang Shumin: "These are experiences I gained at the cost of my life. Now when a dangerous secret realm or an unfamiliar secret realm is opened, we always throw bombs in first.

Right now, they are still clearing the passage. When the passage is almost cleared, they will also throw bombs or missiles into it. Although the bombs may not be very powerful, they are better than nothing. "

As he was talking, a missile flew in and went straight into the entrance. Then, small flames were seen rising from inside the secret realm. Faintly, it seemed as if countless "thin threads" were flying around.

It seems that everyone is well prepared for the Starry Secret Realm and there will be no problems at all.

Chu Fei began to think divergently and started to think about the conversation with Wu Yong.

Chu Fei still had doubts about Wu Yong's words, because in the previous conversation, Wu Yong did not explain the origin of the cult's methods, nor did he say how he met Wu Feng.

The old man Zhang Qiming of Feihu City practices a cult, and Wu Yong also practices a cult. It may be a coincidence, but it may also involve some secrets.

Could it be that Yunlong Academy has finally degenerated to the point of studying cult methods?

Countless thoughts flashed through Chu Fei's mind. Chu Fei gradually put down the telescope and sat aside to think.

There is no need to worry about the Star Secret Realm. You can get detailed information from the Adventure Hall later. In any case, Chu Fei is considered a privileged class in the Adventure Hall.

What Chu Fei needs to worry about is meeting the so-called Lin Baiyu tomorrow morning.

What kind of ability is it to be able to transmit thoughts directly into one's own consciousness space?
Can 14.0 do this?

Or is it that the opponent is a 16.0 master?
But in order to keep it secret, Chu Fei didn't dare to ask anyone and could only wait silently.

Of course, Chu Fei also judged that there should be no danger this time. If the other party really wanted to kill him, he might just wipe out his consciousness. This was the reason why Chu Fei was sweating profusely.

This Lin Baiyu is a bit too powerful.

At that moment, Chu Fei really felt the power of "God". Mortals have absolutely no ability to resist in front of God.

After sitting for a while, Chu Fei left in the name of researching medicine, and came to the medicine research room, but slumped on the sofa and thought.

Chu Fei thought about his own practice, the inner world, the outer battlefield, the high-dimensional world, the legend of the Yanhuang civilization, the Temple of War, the Temple of Stars...

Countless random information flashed through his mind, so much so that Chu Fei actually thought about everything that had happened since he came to the end of the world. When the first ray of sunlight fell on Chu Fei's face, Chu Fei felt as if he had been in another world.

A night of crazy thinking seemed to have made the foundation of my practice more solid!
Under extreme pressure, many details that had been overlooked in the past were remembered.

Does this count as getting benefits before even meeting?
Chu Fei smiled bitterly, "Your cultivation is still too low. If your cultivation was higher, I would drag you over and let you play tricks!"

After packing up, Chu Fei looked at the time. It was already half past five in the morning. After packing up, he set out at six o'clock. When he arrived at the Cross Star, it was 6:17.

The 'secret bid' of the Cross Star Killer Organization is still there, and the store is still the same store.

Seeing this scene, Chu Fei couldn't help but wonder, could it be that this Lin Baiyu is actually the godfather of the underworld?

It was still the same process, and finally Chu Fei saw Lin Baiyu in the secret office where he had registered for the task.

This is an old man with bright eyes and a beard that reaches his chest. He is wearing an ordinary coarse linen gown and is floating in the air with a wooden staff beside him.

As for the other party's cultivation, Chu Fei felt that he was just an ordinary person. But an ordinary person obviously couldn't float.

After sending Chu Fei away, the waiter carefully stepped back and closed the door.

Chu Fei looked at the old man, and the old man looked at Chu Fei with a smile. The two of them did not speak for a while.

Finally, Chu Fei couldn't help himself and asked, "Senior, how can I help you?"

The old man shook his head slightly, a smile appeared on his face, but another thought image was projected into Chu Fei's consciousness space, "Old man Lin Baiyu, I'm sorry to bother you, let's communicate with our minds, I can't speak.

Don't worry, my friend. This kind of communication is a shallow conscious space, not a subconscious space for cultivation, and will not affect you."

Can't speak?

Chu Fei was stunned.

Lin Baiyu's "voice" was calm, "I have been deaf-mute since childhood. If it weren't for virtual technology, I would have a problem even studying, let alone practicing.

Please take a seat, my friend. I know you have many questions in your mind, and I also have many things to discuss with you. "

Chu Fei took a deep breath, bowed slightly, and then sat down. No matter what, the other party was also an old senior, so he still had to be polite.

Lin Baiyu saw what Chu Fei did and nodded slightly.

Chu Fei tried to communicate with Lin Baiyu in the consciousness space. Although Chu Fei could see inside, he was unfamiliar with how to communicate with consciousness.

Fortunately, Lin Baiyu was in charge of everything, and Chu Fei didn't need to think too much to master the method. However, for the time being, Chu Fei could only communicate in his own consciousness space, and Lin Baiyu projected his consciousness into Chu Fei's consciousness space.

This feeling was very bad. Chu Fei felt that as long as the other party had a thought, he would be wiped out.

Fortunately, the consciousness space is different from the consciousness space. The consciousness space of practicing the cosmic brain is a high-level consciousness space - or a subconscious space. At present, it is only the superficial consciousness space, which is the consciousness space of ordinary people.

In the consciousness space, Chu Fei said carefully: "Senior, you really make me ashamed. I have a healthy body, but I am not as good as you."

Lin Baiyu: "Okay, no need to chat awkwardly, let's get straight to the point. I believe you have a lot of questions."

Chu Fei:......

Lin Baiyu: "There is a 'Mandela Effect', do you know about it?"

Chu Fei nodded, "I know.

The Mandela effect is a psychological effect that refers to the phenomenon that the public's collective memory of history does not match historical facts.

It is named after Nelson Mandela, the former South African President of Earth Era.

There is still no clear scientific explanation for the cause of the Mandela Effect. It is believed to be the result of multiple factors and is difficult to measure. Some researchers have proposed parallel universe theories and time travel theories to explain this phenomenon, while some scholars believe that it is the deconstruction and reset of memory and the combination of memory fragments.

But what it is, it seems that it has not been studied clearly until now. "

Lin Baiyu: "I have another explanation. It's group consciousness.

The group consciousness of society is composed of individual consciousness, but individual consciousness has to succumb to group consciousness.

Just like the Chinese character for cliff, the original pronunciation should be 'ai', but later it was pronounced more and more, and it became 'ya'. The national dictionary was changed. Now if you say 'cliff ai', people still don't understand what you are saying. In order to conform to the collective consciousness, you have to read 'cliff ya'!
There are many similar things. After the changes, the past information was submerged in the torrent of history.

People live in a collective, and our consciousness is always being influenced and changed by collective consciousness.

A country or organization can change people's consciousness through the influence of public opinion.

For example, even though a country ceded 588 million square kilometers of our land through an unequal treaty, we are particularly close to this country. This is the power of propaganda, and it is the collective consciousness that changes the individual consciousness.

Of course, this still doesn’t explain the Mandela Effect.

There is also a theory that there is a 'memetic' force at work.

Memes, the genes of information, have some characteristics of normal organisms. They will multiply, expand, change during transmission, and even erode and cover old information. "

Chu Fei nodded slightly. Although the Mandela effect was still not explained, these words made Chu Fei's understanding progress.

Meme, Chu Fei tried to use its principle when he was collecting mental power.

In fact, the so-called red power and even social change are also influenced by memes; the centralized system that was able to maintain for more than 2,000 years in the history of Yanhuang is also influenced by memes. Memes themselves are neither good nor bad, they are just the spread of information. But humans can change the effects of memes.

Chu Fei was still thinking, but Lin Baiyu asked, "What do you think of the legend of the Yanhuang Federation? It's the legend that the Yanhuang Federation split the void, peeked into the high-dimensional world, obtained big data practice, but also led to the end of the world."

Chu Fei frowned slightly, "That makes sense. Is there a problem with this?"

Lin Baiyu smiled. "You have now cultivated to the level of Half-Step 12.0, and you also know information about the inner world. Do you think the Yanhuang Federation can really split the void and spy on the higher-dimensional world? Is the revenge of the higher-dimensional world really so painless?"

Chu Fei frowned even deeper. Thinking about it carefully, there were indeed many problems.

Lin Baiyu: "I have another version of the story here, you can refer to it.

There was a civil strife in the higher-dimensional world, and some high-ranking people were imprisoned and exiled. The prison in the higher-dimensional world is floating in the inner world, forever lonely. But the Yanhuang Federation accidentally discovered this and got in touch with the imprisoned "prisoners".

Afterwards, the Yanhuang Federation rushed into the inner world, split the prison, released the prisoners, and obtained the original data of big data cultivation.

But before leaving, the prison guards from the higher-dimensional world wrote a script for the Yanhuang Federation, a doomsday script.

The script of the higher-dimensional world, when placed in the surface world and in the Yanhuang Federation, is a law that cannot be violated.

Therefore, the Yanhuang Federation entered the end of the world.

What do you think of this story?

Chu Fei was silent for a while and said, "I think this is more reasonable."

"This is a typical example of information change. Of course, part of the reason is that the matter was also covered up at the time. But no matter what, the truth in people's minds has changed after all."

Lin Baiyu's voice was full of emotion, and then he continued: "My friend, you said that information and history are always changing, so should we set up a department specifically responsible for history?"

Chu Fei was stunned, then stared at Lin Baiyu and asked in shock: "Is this the kind of person you are?
Yes, when the Yanhuang civilization was executing the so-called doomsday plan, in order to ensure the effect, there must be an error correction mechanism. "

"Yes, my friend is indeed smart, and can understand ten things after hearing one thing.

In the past, the Yanhuang civilization specially trained a group of deaf-mute people. We live in an isolated environment and have independent inheritance. Although we have contact with the outside world, we have almost eliminated external interference.

We have all the information here, and can even trace historical changes through it.

Our existence is like the original backup information in a computer.

Only we, the deaf-mute people, who are not accepted by the outside world, are naturally capable of doing this. Even if a normal person practices the so-called silent meditation, it is impossible for him to remain silent for his entire life. "

Hearing this, Chu Fei was in awe. But he immediately asked, "Will you correct mistakes? For example, by assassinating people who have influenced history?"

"No. If we did that, we would have been found and eliminated long ago. We just observe and record quietly."

Chu Fei: "What about this assassination agency? This Cross Star is a killer organization."

"Oh, this is just a profit-making organization, and the dark corners cannot be disordered. After we master it, we can at least stop some assassinations against geniuses, or delay them, or even quietly notify the other party.

In addition, this kind of organization is also very good at collecting information, which is very important to us.”

Chu Fei: "Then what is the purpose of the senior looking for me?"

Lin Baiyu's expression became much more serious, and he slowly uttered two words: "Correction."

Chu Fei:......

Didn’t you just say you won’t correct mistakes?

Lin Baiyu continued, “In recent years, the three major cliques have lost control and are moving towards monopoly and centralization.

According to the information we have received, they are even preparing to completely cut off ties with the main body of the Yanhuang civilization and prepare to establish their own independent kingdom behind closed doors.

The situation is now escalating.”

Chu Fei frowned slightly, "The main body of the Yanhuang civilization, does it refer to the part of the inner world?"

"That's right, but it would be more accurate to say that the main body of the Yanhuang civilization is led by the inner world, including all the territories of the inner world and the outer world."

Chu Fei: “Then I have three questions.

First, the Yanhuang civilization in the inner world should have the ability to control the outer world. For example, if someone has not "ascended" after reaching level 16.0 in cultivation, they will have to reduce their luck and force them to leave.

Second, senior, is there any connection between this place and the other world?

Third, my current cultivation level is less than 12.0, so I am afraid I cannot perform the so-called "error correction."

Lin Baiyu smiled, "First, the inner world's control over the outer world has become weaker and weaker. To control the outer world from the inner world, there must be positioning, coordinates, etc. This is the case with the alien species.

In principle, after practicing to 16.0, the soul fire will be very powerful and can be detected in the other world.

But I suspect someone has found a way to hide the soul fire. Then the world will be powerless.

Second, we do have a connection with the other world, but the connection is not strong.

Third, correcting mistakes does not mean assassination. We prefer to support so-called spokespersons. More precisely, we will provide you with resources to promote your growth, and you will use your influence to actively influence the changes and development of the world. "

Chu Fei thought for a moment: "Are you interested in my ability to refine medicine?"

"Yes, but it's not just that." Lin Baiyu did not deny it. "In fact, I told your master about this. He said that the person he brought back would be a good candidate. So I found you not only because you are excellent, but also because I had predicted your existence."

"Fortune telling? Is this thing really accurate?"

Lin Baiyu blinked. "The Yanhuang civilization has a history of so many years, and fortune-telling has been passed down to this day. Do you think this thing is useful?"

Chu Fei:......

“Don’t doubt the wisdom of our ancestors. Sometimes you may need to reflect on yourself and ask yourself why you can’t learn it.”

Chu Fei said slowly: "Because no one taught me."

Lin Baiyu: ...

The two stared at each other.

Finally, Lin Baiyu said: "In fact, we have secretly developed a lot of people over the years. You are not fighting alone. And we will not have any mandatory tasks. We are all here to guide your growth. We also hope that you can guide the positive progress of society in the process of your growth."

Chu Fei thought thoughtfully: "How can we ensure that someone like me is loyal and trustworthy? How can we ensure that your existence will not be revealed?"

Lin Baiyu smiled, "Do you know my name? Do you know where I live? Do you know what our organization is called?"

Chu Fei frowned, "Your name is Lin Baiyu."

"No, all of us are called Lin Baiyu. Lin Baiyu is the first one."

Chu Fei: "Senior, this organization has no name?"

"No, everything that exists must leave traces. To the outside world, we all call you Lin Baiyu."

Chu Fei wanted to roll his eyes. This was clearly a trick. But after thinking for a while, he said, "I know about the Cross Star Killer Organization."

"The structure of the killer organization is top-down, and it is impossible to track down any information from the bottom up. Whatever you can think of, we have already thought of it when we were founded.

If they could find us through this, we would have long since disappeared in the long river of history. The three great factions already know of our existence, but they still can't find us."

Chu Fei pondered for a while and asked, "If we cooperate, then I don't need to pay anything for 'Lin Baiyu'?"

Lin Baiyu had a calm smile on his face: "No need."

Chu Fei: "Then what support can I get?"

"Knowledge. What we can offer for now is knowledge, unaltered, original knowledge. And companions. We have secretly developed many geniuses."

Chu Fei: "Can these geniuses be trusted?"

"do not know."

"..."

Lin Baiyu: "Whether it is credible or not, you need to see and contact it. Of course, we are also observing in secret."

Chu Fei nodded, "Then can I know who my companions are now?"

"It depends on fate. I won't tell you, nor will I tell anyone else about your situation. This will ensure your safety to the greatest extent possible. After all, no one can be trusted, including you.

Only when you come together, I will inform you that you are companions. If you can't come together, then develop in your respective fields and use your influence to guide the world. "

Chu Fei was silent. It must be said that this should be the most correct choice. It does not impose strict control or force development, but it is the most feasible.

After thinking for a while, Chu Fei asked: "Can I get some knowledge now?"

"Of course, based on your recent performance, we have opened up all knowledge below 14.0 to you.

Your recent actions of releasing all the information inside the crystal ball and promoting the production of drugs and significantly reducing their prices have won you high praise. "

Chu Fei: "Can this knowledge be passed on to others?"

"Yes. I even hope that you will take the initiative to spread this knowledge and correct the root of the current impetuous world. But I am afraid that you will bring trouble upon yourself. The source of this knowledge is not easy to explain."

Chu Fei frowned slightly, and suddenly thought of a question: "The knowledge in the previous wisdom crystal ball should be fine, right? The wisdom crystal ball is the storage device of the Three Talents Training Academy. This Three Talents Training Academy should have information from a thousand years ago, right?"

"Yes. But the information stored in a memory is limited after all, and it is knowledge from thousands of years ago. But what I give you here is not only from thousands of years ago, but also the continuous evolution from thousands of years ago to the present.

In terms of total knowledge, it is a hundred times that of the crystal ball of the tree of wisdom.

In terms of quality, it is ten thousand times better than the crystal ball of wisdom.

Moreover, the contents of the crystal ball have only been parsed up to level 13.0. It is estimated that it will take another 14.0 years to parse level .”

Chu Fei nodded again, acknowledging Lin Baiyu's words. After thinking for a while, Chu Fei suddenly said, "Do you need the information on the medicine I'm researching?"

"Of course we need it. If you are willing to give it, we will definitely give something in return. Of course, it is mainly knowledge."

Chu Fei then asked a lot of small details. Finally, he asked Wu Yong, "Senior, do you know where my master got in touch with the evil cult?"

"I'm sorry, you have to ask your master about this. If he doesn't want to tell me, I can't tell you either. I know very little."

"What exactly is a cult? What's the difference between their practice and normal practice?"

"Cults mainly use evil means to strengthen the soul, which is the so-called negative entropy. The soul is the foundation of human beings, it is negative entropy, it is order, and it can even be called a 'fragment of the law of life'.

The soul has a certain tolerance and can bear a certain amount of negative energy. However, when a large amount of external soul power is absorbed without being digested and absorbed, it is like a human body that has become fat. If it is not restrained, it will eventually become diseased.

The disease of the soul is terrifying.

Of course, there are also rational people in cults or those who have come into contact with cults. For example, your master is very rational. He used the means of the cult but did not indulge in the power of the cult.

In fact, cults are also a form of spiritual practice, you can take a look. Any knowledge is useful, but you have to be the master of knowledge, rather than being led by it. "

"I see. Thank you for your advice, senior. It seems that the evil cult is not that scary."

Lin Baiyu shook his head: "No, you can't think like that. You can get in touch with the knowledge of the cult, but don't get in touch with the cult itself. They are some crazy people."

Chu Fei nodded, "I see. I'm fine now."

"In that case, let's stop here today."

Chu Fei: "How can I contact you in the future?"

"I'll look for you. But I usually won't contact you. After all, if I contact you too much, it'll both annoy you and me. And this time I gave you 14.0's information, which I think will be enough for you to use for a long time.

But if you have an urgent matter, you can place a bounty on the black market. It doesn't have to be a cross star, any black market bounty will do. There is no set pattern for the content of the bounty, as it will leave traces. Just place a random bounty, and it's best to be something weird."

"Ok."

Then the two of them left the conversation and exchanged memory cards. Chu Fei's pharmaceutical research data came in a small package of 7 memory cards, but Lin Baiyu gave Chu Fei a box of 60 memory cards, all of which were large-capacity.

After that, Chu Fei left the office and came to the cross star. After a brief hesitation, Chu Fei activated the bounty he had left behind: if he was being hunted, or died, or disappeared, then he would activate the bounty and kill people all over the world; it would be valid for one year and would need to be renewed after one year.

After placing such a reward, Chu Fei sighed slightly, "I think I can buy myself a year of safety. Tsk, only I can ensure my safety in this way." (End of this chapter)
