In the virtual space, Chu Fei looked at the cosmic brain structure that had been iterated to the limit in front of him. A hint of excitement flashed in his eyes, but he also began the final check and proofreading.

When scientific research reaches its final stage, it requires carefulness, patience and caution.

The current cosmic brain structure looks like a flat, swirling cloud or a hurricane, with a hazy halo around it, like a planetary ring.

If you look closely, you will find that the entire structure of the cosmic brain is intricate and endlessly complex.

Although there are countless threads involved, it is not chaotic. It has a subtle complexity and beauty like feathers, and the fine lines are filled with unimaginable changes.

This is an infinite algorithm that also borrows the bionic structure of feathers. In essence, it also has the structural algorithm of the spiral arms of the Milky Way, and borrows the structural algorithm of hurricanes.

According to mathematical logic, the highest algorithm is the chaos algorithm. But there is no way to build a real chaos algorithm now.

At present, whether it is the team led by Chu Fei or Bai Yingying, everyone is "trying to simulate" the infinite algorithm. Basically, they use the characteristics of fractal manifolds and the evolution of computer technology to simulate.

However, Bai Yingying and others pursued the development idea of ​​'ideal environment'. Although the basic idea was to simulate infinite algorithms as much as possible, they knew when to stop.

Chu Fei, however, tried his best to pursue the idea of ​​"infinitely approaching the real environment". He never stopped there, but tried his best to explore the limits of what he could control.

The final result is the "cloud" we see today. But this is just the surface.

If we analyze it, we will find that this cloud is a super galaxy structure.

As early as 18.9999, Chu Fei's cosmic brain structure was this kind of structure that imitated the Milky Way. At that time, it adopted the three-ternary system: one core (crystal cell) was divided into three secondary cores, and each secondary core was divided into three secondary cores. This continued to split, and eventually split into 24 layers, a total of 282.43 billion "crystal cells", each of which was a "quasi-godhood".

Relying on this system, Chu Fei's computing power reached 153.4 trillion points just after he built the Cosmic Brain; later it was gradually optimized to 168.7 trillion points.

The computing power limit of the technique currently being researched by Bai Yingying and others, after breaking through 20.0, is less than 150 trillion points.

That's the gap.

However, Chu Fei had already discovered that if he wanted to expand the cosmic brain structure to the 25th layer, the effect would decrease instead of increase. The most important reason was the communication delay.

If the cosmic brain is constructed with 25 layers, then the signal will have to be transmitted through 25 layers every time the cosmic brain runs. At this time, the signal delay will have affected the normal operation of the cosmic brain.

This delay, on the surface, was the computational delay of the cosmic brain, but in reality it was the limit of human consciousness. In other words, Chu Fei had already touched upon the limit of the human soul.

The problem of communication delay has become the limit that restricts Chu Fei's cosmic brain - the skills of Bai Yingying and others do not need to consider this. Their method of practice is to know when to stop and cannot reach the limit of consciousness at all.

So the question is, how fast is consciousness?

Theoretically, it is believed that consciousness is faster than the speed of light because consciousness itself involves the quantum level.

Later, Chu Fei used the optical quantum computer to deduce and try to break through the communication limit. There are three ways to break through the communication delay:

First, using quantum entanglement technology;

Second, the solution using relativity and time dilation;

Third, high-dimensional technology.

Chu Fei's retreat was so long this time because he wanted to test these three ideas one by one to see which one was better.

Quantum communication technology seems to be the simplest and most in line with human's innate consciousness, but it is extremely complicated and requires the addition of additional communication modules; the logical system of quantum communication is a bit complicated.

According to the theory in scientific research, there is a theory called "Occam's razor", which is: do not add more conditions unless necessary.

Relativity and time dilation are relatively simple, and mainly involve deepening the algorithms for the gravitational core, but they are difficult to accomplish; and this kind of time dilation is very costly.

High-dimensional technology, no brainer - this is no longer a question of whether it is difficult or not, but a question of finding the way.

Although Chu Fei and Shenglong Palace's current technology already involves a lot of high-dimensional technology, they still have zero experience in using high-dimensional technology to solve the problem of extreme communication speed.

In fact, the best way to communicate is "pure information". Pure information has no carrier and no restrictions - at least that's the theory.

But the technology of Shenglong Temple cannot achieve true pure information. Even the current meme technology only says that it does not need energy as a carrier, but still needs to use some quantum as a carrier of information.

In theory, information can exist independently, but this is not possible now.

Pure informatization is the ultimate goal of string theory. If we can achieve it now, what is the point of practicing?

Finally, Chu Fei got a hint from the seed of the tree of wisdom - the seed of the tree of wisdom had once devoured the residual soul of the "suspected evil dragon" and peeled off some of its structures.

Now Chu Fei has obtained some information from these structures - the dragon clan is huge in size, but flexible in control; so the dragon clan is born with some kind of powerful communication "instinct"!

In the process of achieving the unity of man and nature and the harmony of the Tao, a special concept is involved - the consciousness of heaven and earth itself.

Chu Fei had "seen it" before. Last time, he was blessed with good fortune and even lifted up the underwear of the Heavenly Dao, and was struck down three times.

According to Qingxuan Zhenjun, the Way of Heaven does not possess the true consciousness of humans. The consciousness of the Way of Heaven is more like an instinct, a "group consciousness" that is the result of the gathering of countless wills.

This thing is similar to the Gaia consciousness, Pangu consciousness, and planetary consciousness studied by the Yanhuang civilization.

It’s just that the Heavenly Dao is greater, and it controls at least a small world of thousands of light years. This small world has so many lives and many of them are powerful, so this consciousness is more specific and powerful.

When a cultivator reaches the realm of immortals, he can grasp some of the power of heaven and earth through the so-called unity of nature and man. In theory, this power can reach every corner of the world instantly.

This involves a communication issue.

How did the immortals or the way of heaven solve this communication problem? It was through super-dimensional laws and high-dimensional technology.

True Lord Qingxuan didn't know what this was, but he described his insights in detail to Chu Fei, helping Chu Fei find the direction.

After combining many aspects, Chu Fei strengthened his "supermanifold system" based on these - Chu Fei's supermanifold theoretical system has now become one of the core theories of big data practice.

After so many years of iterative research, coupled with the study of memetic technology, Chu Fei finally perfected the supermanifold system, deduced it to an altitude of 20.0, and solved the communication problem.

After the breakthrough, I found that the high-dimensional communication problem is very simple - so simple that it is crude. It can be summed up in four words: world projection.

It can be understood this way: it is definitely not enough for a car on the ground (flat) to run 3,000 kilometers a day; but what about the airplanes in the sky (three-dimensional) and what about the satellites in space?

There has always been a saying: the projection of the highest world becomes the inner world of today; the projection of the inner world becomes the outer world.

This statement is certainly not rigorous, but the logic is very clear.

If I want to deliver a package, I used to use a car, but now I use a car to send it to the airport, and then use a car to send it to the destination after the plane lands. The need to borrow an airplane in the middle is actually equivalent to borrowing the power of the higher-dimensional world.

By placing it in the communication structure of the cosmic brain, it is entirely possible to send information to a higher dimensional level and transmit information through the higher dimensional structure.

However, it is obviously impossible for Chu Fei's cosmic brain to really break through the limitations of high dimensions; even if it can do it, it is a stupid act to transmit the information in his body to the outside world.

However, in mathematics and high-energy physics, there is a theory that all the information inside a region can be encoded and mapped onto its boundary. For example, information in a three-dimensional space can be stored on a two-dimensional surface.

The simple and rough explanation is: the sum of the surface information of an object is equal to the sum of its internal information.

This doesn't sound right. I just need to read the cover of a book. Then I can read all the books in the human collection in one day and become the greatest wise man in human history.

Well, this is a theory obtained when studying the event horizon of a black hole, and it has been proven. This is the holographic principle, anti-de Sitter space.

Now it seems that this kind of research is an explanation of the high-dimensional world, and it is explained clearly using mathematical methods, forming a theory that can be directly used.

Now Chu Fei can use this theory to construct a projection, a plane similar to the black hole event horizon, a special anti-de Sitter space, to serve as a "medium" for communication.

This "mediator" is the "faint halo" on the outer layer of Chu Fei's cosmic brain structure, like a star ring.

The formation of this theory directly solved the communication problem of Chu Fei's cosmic brain.

The characteristic of high-dimensional theory is that the theory is difficult, but once understood, the operation is extremely simple. Just like the relationship between energy and mass, a simple mass-energy formula is enough to summarize it.

Through this method, Chu Fei not only solved the communication problem, but also directly pushed his cosmic brain power to a height of 20.0, even approaching a height of 21.0!

Previously, if you wanted to "piece together" manifold fragments, you either used the Klein bottle structure or the gravitational kernel algorithm; but in the last two hundred years, influenced by Chu Fei, people began to use both structures at the same time.

But Chu Fei further developed, integrated and expanded these two structures, and finally formed a new structure - anti-de Sitter space.

Anti-de Sitter space integrates the gravitational kernel algorithm and the Klein bottle algorithm, and is also compatible with a large number of quantum computing logic, information laws, etc.

In short, Chu Fei was busy for more than two hundred years, and he even used optical quantum computers to deduce before he finally completed the current cosmic brain structure.

The total amount of these calculations, if calculated according to the computing power of ordinary true gods, would take hundreds of millions of years! Here we are only talking about the amount of calculations, and have not yet discussed the difficulty of understanding knowledge, the difficulty of learning, etc.

Chu Fei was proud at this moment.

Bai Yingying and others, with a research team of hundreds of thousands of people, could only make some minor improvements on the "Jiejiao Kung Fu". But it was different for me, Chu Fei, Master Chu, and Consultant Chu. I completed such a super project by myself.

Hey, how come the tens of millions of wisdom dewdrops accumulated before are gone? The seeds of the wisdom tree seem to be a little wilted?

Well, these are all minor problems, no need to pay attention to them; after the breakthrough, just supplement some knowledge.

He carefully examined the cosmic brain structure in front of him several times. Although every data was very familiar, it was related to his life after all, so he still had to be careful.

According to the current situation, once it breaks through 20.0, it will become increasingly difficult to format and rebuild.

Because above 20.0 has reached a high-dimensional level, if it is formatted and rebuilt, the body may not be able to withstand the high-dimensional information, which will inevitably lead to the dissipation of information (memory, etc.). It is very likely that it can only be formatted but not rebuilt - after formatting, the high-dimensional information cannot be remembered and will be forgotten.

Therefore, to break through 20.0, we must succeed in one go and be perfect enough!

Then Chu Fei checked his current cultivation level - 19.9999 limit.

Compared to 18.9999, this is a huge improvement.

[Main Universe Brain Computing Power: 168.7 trillion points → 1126.3 trillion points! ]

Compared with the skills of Bai Yingying and others, it exploded directly.

Next, Chu Fei exited the virtual space and traveled around for a few months, completely ignoring the messy information from the outside world. He completely relaxed his mind, and then Chu Fei went into seclusion again.

First, focus on strengthening the lower sub-brain.

In his past practice, Chu Fei's secondary brain had always grown passively and was rarely strengthened actively.

But now in order to break through 20.0, Chu Fei needs to make full preparations.

The realm of 20.0 is considered to be the complete transformation from human to god. Some of the "mortal" foundations must be dealt with as soon as possible.

The assistant brain had been a huge help to Chu Fei in the past, especially when it came to formatting and re-editing, which was impossible without the assistant brain.

If we want to break through 20.0 right now, we still have to format and rebuild to build the most solid foundation, which requires the use of a secondary brain.

This update must be an all-round update, and it must be updated from the "hardware" level.

We need to start from the genetic level to optimize and construct the body and bone marrow of the virus structure, then connect the bone marrow throughout the body to form the basis of the secondary brain, and then build the secondary brain on this basis.

As for the body, it continues to strengthen and become a powerful war machine and a strong container capable of carrying a cultivation level of 20.0.

The entire update process took more than a year. The situation of the sub-brain was completely changed. Some of the structures of the past cosmic brain were streamlined and transferred to the structure of the sub-brain.

A simple test shows that the sub-brain's progress is: 425 billion points → 41 trillion points, a hundredfold improvement!

Chu Fei was somewhat dissatisfied with this kind of secondary brain, but this was already the limit.

The power of the cosmic brain lies in its ability of "abstract thinking". The current cosmic brain is almost free from the influence of matter. To be precise, the cosmic brain initially relied on the soul to operate, but now it has begun to reversely transform the soul.

But the structure of the secondary brain has always relied on matter and energy to operate. Fundamentally, it is not as good as the cosmic brain. There is no way, humans only have one soul, and Chu Fei doesn't want to play with distractions.

41 trillion points of computing power is the limit of what Chu Fei can do. This is because of the recent breakthrough in the research of 20.0 Universe Brain Technique. Otherwise, 4 trillion points of computing power would be difficult to achieve.

Everything was ready, and Chu Fei finally decided to take the crucial step. But before that, Chu Fei needed to find a "guardian". Needless to say, it was Qing Xuan Zhenjun.

The two are now in a Taoist relationship, and True Lord Qingxuan still relies on the environment provided by Chu Fei, which is 100% trustworthy.

Chu Fei didn’t know what impact this breakthrough would have. After all, he was practicing the cosmic brain and created the world.

After Bai Yingying and others made a breakthrough, the computing power of the cosmic brain at level 20.0 was "only" about 100 to 130 trillion, and the computing power of 150 trillion was like the ceiling.

But Chu Fei's current limit is 19.0, but he has already broken through the 100 trillion computing power. After breaking through 20.0, it will conservatively be doubled.

What kind of reaction will such an explosive computing power bring?

Will there be a heavenly disaster?

In addition, in order to achieve a breakthrough in spiritual practice, one needs to absorb a large amount of energy, which usually results in some obvious phenomena.

In the past, the big data practitioners of Shenglong Palace made breakthroughs because they used technological means to provide energy. This energy gathering phenomenon was replaced by technology - this does not mean that the phenomenon no longer exists, it has just been replaced.

The energy Chu Fei wants to absorb will definitely explode. What if there is a special scene? What if it attracts some masters who "block the road"? Maybe it's unfounded, but what if? Anyway, I have this condition, why not use it!

As expected, True Lord Qingxuan agreed to Chu Fei's request without any hesitation.

Afterwards, Chu Fei found Bai Yingying and others to record their breakthroughs in cultivation.

As for our family members, of course they will not be left behind.

Chu Fei's breakthrough shocked countless people, and they gathered at the new industrial park of Crescent Technology Group. Here, a large-scale optical quantum computer was already running, controlling more than a dozen large nuclear fusion power stations, ready to provide energy for Chu Fei.

There are also a large number of energy crystals prepared nearby, as well as a Yuan Lian Gui Xian formation for backup.

When Bai Yingying and the others made the breakthrough, two large nuclear fusion power plants were more than enough - in fact, one was enough, but there had to be a backup.

This breakthrough scene was interesting to Master Qingxuan, and then he fell silent: If there could be such a scene in cultivation, the difficulty of overcoming the tribulation would be reduced by at least half.

Many cultivators actually couldn't bear the second half of the tribulation. If the difficulty was reduced by half, the number of celestial beings would increase a hundredfold! In just a hundred years, the Shenglong Palace had produced hundreds of thousands of true god-level masters, which really shocked Qingxuan Zhenjun.

Just before Chu Fei officially broke through, he met Bai Yingying.

Bai Yingying couldn't help but say, "Wouldn't it be better to break through in the outer world? Breaking through in the inner world is too dangerous!"

Chu Fei shook his head slightly: "The war is coming, and Shenglong Palace needs to announce a powerful true god. There was Sima Tianpeng in front, and I am the next one. After all, I have already registered with the Dragon Clan."

In fact, there is another advantage of breaking through in the inner world, that is, the cosmic brain is not oppressed. In the outer world, because the laws are not complete, the cosmic brain is subject to some suppression. However, this cannot deny that Chu Fei really has the above idea and determination.

Bai Yingying suddenly realized, "I see. This is too much for you to pay."

Chu Fei smiled, "As a member of the Yanhuang civilization, I also have the responsibility to contribute to the Yanhuang civilization. Okay, it's up to you now."

Bai Yingying nodded, and then began to direct the people around her to get busy.

Around, there are already tens of thousands of 20.0 masters ready. Chu Fei, as the hope of Shenglong Palace and even Yanhuang civilization, cannot afford to lose.

Everything was ready. Chu Fei finally took a deep breath and sat down cross-legged under the attention of countless cameras.

First, formatting!

The secondary brain began to take over the body, and the main cosmic brain began to decompose spontaneously. As the cosmic brain decomposed, a large amount of life energy went out of control. But because Chu Fei's power was dissipated slowly, it was also convenient for everyone to study and record, so the surroundings only felt that the temperature had risen a lot, and there was no overly intense scene.

At this time, the energy in Chu Fei's body has exceeded ten kilograms. If such a huge amount of energy is released in one breath, it will be enough to turn an area of ​​thousands of miles into ruins.

Even if Chu Fei released it slowly now, after a few hours, the temperature within the surrounding area of ​​hundreds of kilometers would rise by as much as ten degrees. This was because Bai Yingying and others had used various abilities, such as spells and imitation magic, to increase air flow, form strong winds, and assist in cooling down.

The process of dispersing power lasted for ten days, and Chu Fei's cultivation level dropped to the early stage of 16.0 in one breath.

This time Chu Fei's body was intact, unlike the previous horrific scene where only bones were left after the collapse. This was the result of strengthening the body in advance.

Then Chu Fei began to reconstruct the cosmic brain, and the surrounding nuclear fusion power plants began to increase their load. A large amount of "fairy energy" appeared on the scene and was absorbed by Chu Fei.

Since it became possible to artificially create immortal energy, the practice in Shenglong Palace has become more and more luxurious.

As time passed, Chu Fei absorbed the immortal energy faster and faster. The immortal energy around him faintly formed a vortex, hanging upside down above Chu Fei's head.

Because too much immortal energy gathered, even a faint rainbow light appeared.

"Sure enough, there is an unusual phenomenon." Bai Yingying sighed after seeing it. Then she looked at the sensor equipment next to her and found that Chu Fei's current cultivation level had just broken through 19.0!

This sensing device is not accurate, it is just a rough estimate, but it is close.

Then Bai Yingying took another look at the energy statistics. The energy output of the nuclear power plant was very accurate, but there were fluctuations in the process of converting spiritual energy, and there were also fluctuations in Chu Fei's absorption.

But it is estimated that the total mass of the immortal energy that Chu Fei has absorbed exceeds 12 kilograms, and now 11 nuclear fusion power plants have been started.

Fortunately, Chu Fei's absorption speed has reached its peak at this time, and there are still several nuclear power plants that have not been connected to the grid.

"Is this a genius or a monster?" Bai Yingying sighed inwardly, but she stared at Chu Fei more and more intently. She even stopped looking at the "Master Yun" next to her, Qingxuan Zhenjun.

As time passed, Chu Fei's absorption speed began to decline from its peak and gradually stopped, but the cumulative energy absorbed was estimated to be no less than 30 kilograms.

But when Bai Yingying saw this, she immediately ordered all nuclear fusion power stations to increase their load to the limit. Chu Fei was about to break through.

All nuclear fusion power stations were running frantically, and the fairy energy converted on site gradually formed fairy clouds. Because there were too many of them, they were scattered around, floating in groups within a range of more than ten kilometers. Those ordinary plants were growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

But the scene where Chu Fei broke through seemed to be quiet, and Chu Fei no longer absorbed any trace of spiritual energy.

One hour... Two hours...

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

However, a large number of powerful people from other civilizations have appeared around - Shenglong Palace's foreign trade is very popular, and many masters have come to Shenglong Palace.

There is a huge explosion of spiritual energy here right now, and many powerful people are coming here.

At this time, Qingxuan Zhenjun finally exerted his ability, and a faint soul aura was emitted, and everyone calmed down. But because there was too much immortal energy, many people took the opportunity to absorb the "billion points", especially the cultivators.

The advanced ability of immortal energy can be absorbed by cultivators, gods, and mythical beasts.

Time passed little by little, and suddenly a vortex appeared above Chu Fei's head again. The vortex expanded rapidly, sweeping across hundreds of meters in an instant, and then expanded to thousands of meters and then dozens of kilometers.

A huge vortex appeared between heaven and earth. Within the range of the vortex, a large amount of spiritual energy was swept back.

The strong attraction made Bai Yingying's face change. At this moment, Bai Yingying felt that the energy in her body seemed to be drained away. Chu Fei's place had become a black hole, swallowing everything.

But most of the immortal energy was not absorbed by Chu Fei. Instead, it condensed above Chu Fei's head and gradually became gloomy, quickly changing from white clouds to dark clouds. These dark clouds were composed of immortal energy, which was extremely rich.

But this scene made everyone look solemn.

Suddenly, a tiny flash of lightning flashed in the dark clouds, followed by countless fine blue and white lightning flashes in it.

"This is a heavenly calamity! Tell everyone not to get within one kilometer of Chu Fei." True Lord Qingxuan couldn't help but speak.

"Heavenly Tribulation?!" Bai Yingying looked up suddenly and immediately ordered everyone to retreat. At the same time, she asked, "Master, we don't need to be in the immortal class, so how can there be a Heavenly Tribulation?"

True Lord Qing Xuan said in a leisurely tone: "The heavenly tribulation has two effects, one is the test of cultivation, and the other is to infuse high-quality life energy. The quality of the immortal energy you are refining now is not high enough to match Chu Fei's current cultivation foundation.

In addition, because Chu Fei's cosmic brain structure is infinitely close to reality, he also needs to connect with the real world, which requires testing.

Perhaps, this is the true practice of big data. You are just children playing house.

Anyway, in the eyes of cultivators, any technique that cannot help one overcome tribulations is considered defective.

Laymen or low-level practitioners always regard heavenly tribulations as punishments, but they do not know that these are the true gifts from God.

The Way of Heaven is the collection of all sentient beings' thoughts. The stronger the sentient beings are, the stronger the Way of Heaven is. Therefore, the strong people's tribulation is itself a reward from the Way of Heaven. It's just that the consciousness of Heaven itself is not so clear, so the love of Heaven is a bit rough.

However, after so many years, there was chaos again, so the inheritance was scattered, and everyone was also greedy, which led to the current environment of cultivation.

Now everyone is afraid of the heavenly tribulation. Ha, they don’t think about it. The original cultivation method was passed down from top to bottom. How could the ancestors not consider the problem of overcoming the tribulation? "

Bai Yingying was somewhat shocked: "The Heavenly Tribulation is actually a reward?!"

As he was speaking, the first heavenly calamity had already been brewing. A bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket fell down with a loud bang like a blue and white thunder dragon.

"boom……"

The violent power of the heavenly calamity was displayed in front of everyone in Shenglong Palace for the first time.

The violent shock wave swept across the earth with lightning and halos.

All the instruments and equipment around were turned into ashes, and the earth was shaking.

The energy of the heavenly tribulation exploded instantly, but it only spread out about a hundred meters before stopping, covering an area of ​​a hundred meters in radius, forming an "egg" that enveloped Chu Fei.

Endless lightning swirled on the surface of this "egg", and the violent energy caused layers of charged halos to spread in the surrounding space. That was the ionized air.

Bai Yingying looked at the "egg" in front of her, but was shocked and stammered: "This is the first time I have seen a scene of transcending tribulation. It seems that it is really a reward."

However, before he finished speaking, he heard Qing Xuan Zhenjun say: "No, the heavenly tribulation contains a third of the power of heavenly punishment! Has Chu Fei done anything against heaven before?"

[I've been revising my brain hole for a day... I'm having a brain cramp. I finally completed the brain hole of this true god realm. 】(End of this chapter)
