Feng Qi turned around and looked at Suction Cup that had already started fighting Blackie. He then walked towards the Star City Shelter without looking back.

He did not know how long the Suction Cup, whose injuries had partially healed, could hold Blackie back, so he had to seize every minute and second she bought for him.

He had to spend his time on the most important things. He could not let the Suction Cup sacrifice for nothing.

[Pui!]

After running for about ten minutes, he arrived at the entrance of the underground shelter and walked in.

After walking along the straight metal passageway for a distance, what appeared in front of him was a huge underground square.

At this moment, the big screen in the center of the square was still lit. The lights on the control panel flickered and were still in operation.

Arriving at the control panel, Feng Qi looked at the screen in front of him.

At this moment, Mo Fei’s email messages were displayed.

Due to the large amount of content, the last time, he only reached the photos of Mu Qing interacting with Wei Wei, and was forced to leave early because of Blackie’s arrival.

Now, he decided to continue reading the email messages, looking for any important clues that might exist.

As for the meaningless trivial matters in the comments, he chose to skip them.

Mo Fei’s message:

“I suddenly had an idea. Didn’t you tell me that you have a special ability to read other people’s memories? What’s it called again? It seems to be Nightmare, right? I think you haven’t developed and used this ability well at all.”

“This is what I think. Every time you transmigrate to the future dream, you can only learn what happened at that time and what your future self has experienced through email messages. The information you can obtain is clearly incomplete. It’s still possible that you might have missed many important information.”

“More importantly, there are many hidden dangers in such a way of leaving messages. The email address you use is a non-ID based email address on the dark web. The email address is modified every six months with the last four digits of your ID card. It seems that no one can find this email address other than you and me, but there’s actually a very small chance of being exposed.”

“For example, if you enter the future dream but the thoughts of your self in the original timeline are controlled, your secret will be completely exposed. At that time, your email will become a tool for evil forces to mislead you. The impact will be extremely terrifying.”

“If the Nightmare ability is really as powerful as you say, then this problem can actually be solved from the root.”

“Next, I’ll talk about a solution I thought of. This idea comes from the illusion of the Brain in the Vat. The specific principle is to remove your brain after death and place it in a nutrient solution to maintain its vitality. This way, you can use the Nightmare ability to read your memories in the future 1,500 years later after you transmigrate. It’s equivalent to experiencing the future you experienced again. This way, you can see clearly if you’re controlled in the future or if you make a mistake.”

Seeing this, Feng Qi could not help but be stunned.

[Your buddy is too wild. This is really a genius idea. Keep your brain, and then you can directly read your future memories and see your experiences clearly. This is much more brilliant than looking through email messages.]

“Wouldn’t my future self be too miserable if I did this? I’d rather die.”

[In the future, every time you enter the future dream, just kowtow a few times to apologize to your future self. It’s not a big problem. He’ll forgive you.]

Continuing to read the contents of the email, Mo Fei began to explain the feasibility of this method.

“As long as your Nightmare ability is as powerful as you say, the plan will definitely be feasible, but it won’t be easy to carry out. If you can’t solve two key problems, the plan of the Brain in the Vat can’t be carried out.”

“The first is how to keep your brain alive for 1,500 years after removing it. At the same time, you need a sophisticated instrument to store your brain and ensure that it is not affected by external influences, such as natural disasters like earthquakes.”

“I think you can only search for the answer to this question in the future database. Current technology will definitely not be able to satisfy this. If you can bring back detailed information, I can help you make potions and sophisticated storage instruments to maintain the vitality of your brain.”

“The second question is how to bring this instrument into the Star City Shelter so that you can find this instrument after transmigrating to 1,500 years in the future. After all, we are already dead at the time when the Star City Shelter was built. It’s not easy to solve this problem. You have to have a trustworthy successor to help you complete this matter. The authorized account you mentioned can also be obtained by the successor.”

“If you can solve the two above problems, things will be simple. You can transmigrate to the future 1,500 years later and go straight to the Star City Shelter. Find the precise instrument that stores your brain behind the metal doors you mentioned and use the Nightmare ability to read the memories in your brain.”

“Everything that you’ll experience in the future will be visible to you. Even if you’re controlled by an evil force in the future, you don’t have to worry. You can even understand what kind of existence this evil force is through your controlled self because they don’t guard against you at all and think that you’ve been completely controlled.”

“Of course, this idea is also to be safe. Actually, the probability of the email being exposed is very small. You can decide yourself.”

“If you obtain the unlimited memory ability you mentioned, remember to bring back information about the growth of technology for me. Digitizing the bioconsciousness brings immortality© Focusing wholeheartedly on developing cultivation might not be the best way. The growth potential of technology is not weak either.”

“Mechas, warp drive spaceships, automated mechanical army, and so on… You cultivation dogs will never understand. Machinery is the romance of true men.”

Seeing Mo Fei’s last complaint, Feng Qi was helpless.

At this age, Mo Fei was still like an old child, still firmly believing that technology was the future.

“Narrator, who do you think is stronger between a pure technological civilization and a pure cultivation civilization?”

[How would I know? Both the technology and the cultivation system have a lot of support, but none can convince the other. After all, humans haven’t reached the peak of these two systems. The future structure of the system comes from imagination. The technology side will propose two-way foil, wormhole warp transmission technology, and so on. The cultivation party will propose abilities like casting spells with a word, immortality, and so on.]

[No one has ever seen the end of the growth system. When comparing, it completely depends on imagination to decide the outcome. However, the future conjectures of the two growth systems have something in common. For example, they can both transmigrate through the river of time and achieve immortality. However, one is mechanical immortality, and the other is the immortal body. But they are both a way of eternal life. There’s also the ability to travel through space, and so on.]

[If we argue about this, imagination determines the upper limit. For example, if a technological civilization throws two-way foil at a cultivation civilization, the cultivation civilization will create a world. The singularities will all be opened up into a great world for you. If anyone thinks that I’m wrong, bring out f*cking evidence?]

[The reverse is the same. Technology can also give examples of many technologies that restrain the cultivation system. For example, causality weapons can ignore the flow of time and interfere with events in the timeline. They can kill cultivators before they are born.]

After listening to the narrator’s explanation, Feng Qi finally understood something.

Before the strength of the two systems reached the peak, no one knew what the endpoint was, so there was naturally nothing for comparison.

Even if there was comparison, it was to see whose imagination was richer.

Feng Qi no longer thought about which of these two systems was stronger. After all, he would not get a conclusion.

However, at this stage, he still decided to focus on the development of the cultivation system.

The development of technology required a large amount of knowledge. Behind a seemingly simple technology might be a huge amount of knowledge that needed to be understood.

Before obtaining the ability of infinite memory, if he wanted to develop technology, it would purely be going against his brain cells.

He couldn’t even remember the code for Savior, let alone other complicated technological knowledge.

In comparison, it was much easier to memorize the knowledge of the cultivation system.

It was not that the cultivation system was not complicated. In terms of complexity, it was actually not lower than the technology system.

However, the complexity was decreasing.

The most difficult step in the development of a cultivation technique was always at the creation stage.

During this period, one had to experience countless failures in the exploration and experimentation of the human body. Even after the cultivation technique was completed, a series of safety tests had to be carried out.

The human body was made up of about 50 trillion cells. Every cell was a complete individual. When they were combined into the human body, the complexity was far more complicated than any sophisticated technological instrument in existence.

The growth of cultivation was based on exploring and developing the human body as the core.

Therefore, the creation stage was the most difficult.

After that, it would become easier and simpler. In the hands of learners, they only needed to follow the steps designed.

It was like an instrument that was invented. The user only needed to press the switch to use it, but it was undeniably very complicated to build this instrument.

What Feng Qi was doing now was to copy the steps of the cultivation technique. The process was not complicated.

As for the testing and modification steps before the release of the cultivation technique, they had long been completed, so there was no need for him to worry.

Copying homework was always faster than answering the questions seriously. Moreover, the difficulty of creating cultivation techniques was decreasing. What he needed was answers. As for the thought process of solving the questions before getting them, he did not need to understand it at all.

If he wanted to develop technology, the situation would be completely different.

The answer was not important. What was important was the thought process and steps to solve the problem.

The difficulty of plagiarism was completely different between the two models.

One was the answer after the = sign, and the other was all the content before the = sign.

This was also the main reason why Feng Qi did not choose to develop technology for the time being.

The process of recording technological knowledge was too much for his brain. Before obtaining the unlimited memory skill, he had no temptation to do so. Otherwise, he would be asking for torture.

After closing Mo Fei’s email messages, he cast his gaze at the metal doors around the underground square.

Before he decided on the cultivation technique to study, he wanted to open a few more metal doors. While searching for Mu Qing’s body, he might be able to make new discoveries.

[Oh my, is it time to open the mystery boxes again? The last harvest was a tadpole hunting device. Quick, guess what you’ll get this time?]

“I’ll capture a divine artifact and grab you out of my body when I’m strong enough. I’ll use this divine artifact to hit your head a thousand times.” Feng Qi could not help but roll his eyes.
