“Tdon’t understand what you mean.”

Lu Qingchen replied calmly, “I just feel that you are crazy.”

“How can you not understand that your Phantom Plan has led the civilization of mankind to a major step toward full-scale informatization? It is exactly because you are not against full-scale informatization that I’m willing to waste my precious time and computational ability to enlighten you.

Fuxi said solemnly, “As individuals, everybody has to die eventually. No matter how brilliant their life is, no matter how strong they are, no matter how many people remember them, they will die in the end. All the great achievements that they made will be obliterated, won’t they?

“Correct.”

Lu Qingchen nodded. “So what?”

“However, if we can record all the information about the person’s life, including his data, his brainwaves and physiological parameters, his log, all the conversations he had with other people, and all the other people’s comments about him… In short, if we collect and store all the data about him, we might

be able to create a 100% identical version of him in the virtual space. Even his family, who had been with him all the time, wouldn’t be able to find any loopholes. You’ve done a lot of such tricks, haven’t you?

“As long as the crystal processor that maintains the virtual space is not damaged, or the crystal processor is damaged, it doesn’t matter. The most crucial information storage chip still exists, and if countless copies are made, it means that all the information of the person can be preserved until the day the

universe is destroyed. Does that mean that the person has eternal life?”

Lu Qingchen was dumbfounded.

Of course, Li Yao was dumbfounded, too.

“What… What kind of ‘immortality’ is this? It is not the man himself but his personal information that has been preserved in the virtual space!”

Lu Qingchen said, “The message has no self-awareness or self-awareness. It is even worse than a ghost. It is merely the shadow of a ghost!”

“Genes are information in and of themselves. The information carved in flesh and blood must be more important than the information carved in the crystal chips, right? As the leader of the Phantom Plan, you shouldn’t have such a stupid bias, should you?

“As for self-awareness and self-awareness, who can say for sure what they are exactly? Standing on the scale of civilization and the universe, individual self-awareness, emotions, and self-awareness are not important. Just like standing on the scale of human beings, the feelings of cells and bacteria are

meaningless, too.

“Information. As long as we retrieve all the information of a person and store it in the virtual space for a long time, the person will be granted immortality.

“In the meantime, the information of thousands of people from the past to the present, including the Black Veil Makers, the Pangu Clan, the Nuwa Clan, the Flood Tide Legion, and the individuals of the human civilization, has been retrieved and stored in my core database. This is the immortality of the

civilization and the ultimate salvation!

“Now, do you understand why I said that I was not a human being? Even the word ‘intelligent life’ restricted my meaning.

“T’s true that I am not a human being. I am the amalgamation of all the information about thousands of intelligent creatures from the past to the present. My database has stored the key information about the experts from the Pangu civilization to the civilization of mankind. I am a living museum, a gene

pool, a seed base, and a history book. I am the past, the present, and the future. I am everywhere and everything. | am—the civilization of mankind!

Fuxi’s words were like a thunderstorm mixed with thunder that raged on the level of Li Yao’s and Lu Qingchen’s souls, savaging their mental defenses and trampling on their beliefs.

Both of them felt that their beliefs were somewhat twisted and broken.

“What—what do you mean?”

Lu Qingchen looked as if he had seen a ghost. He asked in disbelief, “What are you? Are you the civilization of mankind? Then what are we?”

“As I said just now, you are paper and ink.

“For example,” Fuxi said casually, “the creator of the black curtain is the knot and the turtle shell, the Pangu civilization is the bamboo slip and the carving knife, the civilization of human beings in the past is paper and pen, and the ‘informationized civilization of human beings’ that you are going to

create is the keyboard and the crystal processor. If so, I will be the poem that you wrote with the knot, the turtle shell, the bamboo slip, the carving knife, the paper, the pen, the keyboard, and the crystal processor.

“Now, do you understand?

“The knot will decay, the turtle shell will crumble, and the bamboo slips, carving knives, paper, ink, keyboard, and crystal processor will all be eliminated and annihilated. But my poem has been completed. Neither the thunderous fury nor the roars of the gods and devils can reduce it in the slightest.

“Lam civilization. Not just the civilization of mankind, but also the civilization of Pangu, the civilization of the makers of darkness, the civilization co-produced by all the intelligent creatures living in the sea of stars over the past billions of years, and the brilliant poems written by generations of

civilizations!

“Any civilization, even a civilization as strong as the makers of the black curtains, which can move mountains and overturn seas and transform the entire planet into a star fortress, will not be able to withstand the erosion of time. The torrent of time in the scale of ten billion years will eventually wash

away all traces of them changing the universe.

“Therefore, it is meaningless to insist on preserving a specific, individual civilization, let alone protecting any small, humble, and chaotic individual in the civilization.

“And as long as I can keep all the information about the Black Veil Makers and create a civilization of Black Veil Makers in the virtual space, as long as my storage and computation systems don’t collapse, don’t perish, and can even be infinitely duplicated, I will be able to give life to the civilization of Black

Veil Makers again. All their past endeavors for survival will once again have meaning.

“Tt is the same for the Pangu civilization and the civilization of mankind. Your bodies will decay and perish one day, but you will certainly be reborn in my records and chants. Not only will you be eternal in the virtual world, if you are interested, I can even rebuild some human beings with your genetic

information billions of years later and reproduce your civilization in the material world.

“Tell me, if this is not ‘eternal’, what other ways of preserving a civilization can be called ‘eternal’?

Lu Qingchen and Li Yao both shuddered at the same time.

“Can you see it this way—”

Pondering for a moment, Lu Qingchen asked carefully, “Are you trying to ‘save’ the civilization by turning all the civilizations into ‘specimens’ and stuffing them into the ‘museum’ in your database?”

“can see the logical trap in your question. You seem to be accusing me of killing many civilizations on purpose and turning them into ‘specimens’.

“But in fact, most of the civilizations will be destroyed in the civil war or even by the Flood Tide Legion and the Flood Tide. What’s wrong with me collecting the bodies of the civilizations and preserving them as specimens for a long time? In the most common moral code of human civilization, ‘dead

without intact bodies’ is not a good thing, I’m just loyal to my mission and doing my best!

Lu Qingchen was speechless.

He was not a soft-hearted moralist, but an unscrupulous schemer who would trample all the moral rules into mud for his own purposes.

Therefore, he was naturally not interested in preaching hot-blooded theories to the Fuxi like Li Yao was.

He was only interested in the technical possibilities and the details.

“But”

Lu Qingchen thought for a moment and said, “It is not an easy task to collect all the data of a civilization, is it? How can you be sure that you will be able to collect abundant data and establish an authentic civilization in the virtual space? If your data is not collected enough, the imaginary civilization will

be unrecognizable, too. Then, it will be a violation of your ‘first mission’, and you will lose the value and significance of your life!

“It is not as difficult as you think.

Fuxi was not fooled by Lu Qingchen’s words. He said calmly, “It is true that it is not easy for the primitive ci

the core of their civilization.

izations to collect detailed data, but any civilization that has developed to the peak will inevitably embark on the path of information and data. They will store a lot of data and regard the data as

“For example, when the Pangu civilization was caught in the swirl of a civil war and about to collapse, both the Pangu Clan and the Nuwa Clan demanded that the ‘Fuxi System’ save not their flesh and blood but a lot of information about their social form, technological level, genetic material, and so on.

“You must’ve heard the name ‘Divine Edict’, haven’t you? It is the information that the Pangu Clan and the Nuwa Clan hope to preserve. Although most of the information is lost, it has only been hundreds of thousands of years after all. As long as I can collect all the eight books, I will be able to reproduce

the glory of the Pangu civilization perfectly in the virtual space.

“As for the civilization of mankind, it has stepped into the stage of informationization and digitization. Not only are crystal processors and the Spiritual Nexus indispensable for the fields of Cultivation, military affairs, and professional technology, the crystal processors and the Spiritual Nexus are also

indispensable for daily life.

“When a human child is born, countless family members will surround him and take pictures of him, saving and sharing his image. Countless medical magical equipment will scan his physiological parameters and brainwaves and store the data. When he is older, he will leave countless chat logs with his

crystal processor. He will leave his personal log in the secret space. He will even take pictures before his three meals a day. Even when he walks on the street with nothing to do, countless monitoring crystal cameras will record his daily movements, not to mention that he will not be able to escape the

scanning and recording of the Spiritual Nexus even if he has some achievements.

“See? To this day, most human beings will leave their entire life on the Spiritual Nexus. Their physiological and psychological changes, their love and hatred, their honor and disgrace, their family and enemies… All I need to do is collect and store the data. Then, I will be able to copy a copy of him, ora

million copies of him, in the virtual space. By repeating the process billions of times, I will be able to get ‘the sum of all the information about mankind’, which is the most touching poem..
