My Divine Diary
chapter-490

Another twenty years passed.

Spiritual power technology developed rapidly, and the thirty-nine states of the mortal realm were connected by a network of highways, railways, and flight paths, with cities undergoing rapid changes.

Countless large hydro, wind, and thermal spiritual stations were built, supplying spiritual energy to every corner of the world.

Signal base stations became even more densely distributed, with countless synchronous satellites in space constantly aligning with the ground, providing strong network signals. Even in remote mountainous areas, it was possible to receive signals.

As a result, countless children, teenagers, youth, middle-aged, elderly… even some people with one foot in the grave were still sitting in front of computers, playing chess!

With the passage of time, the new generation grew up completely, gradually becoming the dominant force in society, while those who witnessed the rapid changes of history began to age, handing over the power to reshape the world to the new generation.

These people witnessed how society transformed from extreme isolation and backwardness to a panoramic view of the world, like a miracle, like a dream.

This transformation, originating from Morling City, took only sixty years to completely change the world.

For the lower class, the biggest change was no longer worrying about basic needs like food, clothing, shelter, and transportation as in the old days. Now, the worries were about things like the neighbor buying the latest model of spiritual flying car, hearing that a big brother had bought the most expensive gaming spiritual computer, or an old friend had upgraded their phone to the limited edition Starry Sky brand thirteen!

Then they would sigh: “Ah~ life is so hard, can’t go on, so unfair!”

In reality, life had improved a lot!

Since the downfall of the ‘Demon-Extermination Alliance’ over thirty years ago, the major immortal sects had declined, and the old immortal sect model gradually faded from the world stage. Some immortal sects even opened up completely to keep up with the times, becoming tourist attractions to facilitate recruiting disciples and continue their existence.

Unfortunately, various cultivation techniques were spread widely through the internet under the intentional push from Yashan.

The secret of advancing from the Nascent Soul Realm to the Unity Realm by killing and plundering three fellow disciples was exposed by Yashan, leading to the proliferation of many counterfeit cultivation methods, making it difficult to distinguish between true and false.

These old cultivation methods were all labeled as ‘cultivation heresies,’ while the ‘Starry Sky Academy’ was hailed as the orthodox path of cultivation. As long as one passed the test and had talent for cultivation, they could enter the various Starry Sky branches across the country to study cultivation…

This was digging at the roots of the major immortal sects, and it could be foreseen that the immortal sect model would eventually disappear from the stage of history, struggling in its last moments.

Under the current trend, the former glory no longer existed.

…

It was during these twenty years that Su Hao did two things.

The first thing was to design and successfully create the “Spiritual Power Information Storage Device” within his body, which Su Hao renamed as the “Knowledge Platform,” meaning a place to store information.

The second thing was the decoding and experimentation of consciousness information.

Su Hao’s design of the human “Knowledge Platform” principle is not complicated:

Firstly, within the pinball space, spiritual power is infinitely amplified to observe extremely small units of spiritual energy. Each unit of spiritual energy presents a hexagonal ring shape, and by changing its properties, the six corner-connected blocks obtain two states: “charged” and “uncharged,” labeled as ‘0’ and ‘1’ respectively, serving as binary information.

Each spiritual unit has six small blocks, and by simple calculation of 2 to the power of 6, 64 different states can be obtained. This means that theoretically, one spiritual unit can record 64 numbers.

In this way, each spiritual unit can become a unit of memory information.

Secondly, the problem of rapid input and output is solved.

Su Hao transformed part of the spiritual power into “bridges” by changing the nature of spiritual power, used to connect relatively independent memory units, controlling the “gain or loss of electrons” of each small block to achieve storage and retrieval of information.

Each “bridge” corresponds to a memory unit, forming the smallest “storage unit.”

Then, each storage unit is vertically stacked to form a line, achieving synchronous connection between storage units to form a “storage unit line,” and then arranging the unit lines one by one, connected by “bridges” to form a “storage unit surface,” which is then stacked to form a small “unit block”…

Finally, countless “bridges” are connected to human neurons to achieve input and output of brainwaves…

And a large external spiritual hard drive for the brain is done!

It sounds simple, but to actually achieve it, the difficulty is so great that Su Hao loses sleep day and night.

It took him nearly fifteen years to build the first “unit block,” and then the technology matured, gradually speeding up.

Another problem arose: the way the brain stores information is different from this binary information. So, how to orderly store information that people see, hear, feel, and think in the “unit block”?

The computer’s method of storing sound and images in arrays can be used as a reference, but the way the human brain stores and retrieves information is much more complex than this. To achieve normal storage and retrieval, the information stored in the human brain needs to be decoded.

And this corresponds to something Su Hao started doing many years ago: “consciousness information decoding”!

Over the years, his progress in decoding consciousness information is less than one percent. But even one percent of information is temporarily enough!

The next thing is simple, just two words: experiment!

Su Hao doesn’t need to worry about the selection of experimental subjects. As long as he tells Yashan that he needs people for experiments, Yashan will arrange it properly. In less than three days, various people who deviate from the social development norms and are still in a primitive state are sent to Su Hao’s laboratory by Yashan, allowing Su Hao to do whatever he wants.

As for why he doesn’t experiment on himself…

Su Hao doesn’t even bother to think about such questions.

This experiment took five years. Until now, Su Hao has finally found a stable method of constructing “unit blocks”!

It can achieve the storage and retrieval of brain information.

For example, when the eyes see a painting, the painting will automatically be recorded in both the brain and the “unit block.” The brain will quickly forget the content of the painting, but will leave an “index” about the painting.

As long as the brain begins to try to recall this painting, the index is activated, and the complete information recorded in the unit block is extracted, projected into the brain, completing the recall!

The entire process is completed in an instant, with the delay almost negligible!

Su Hao, who accomplished all of this, gave himself a thumbs up and sincerely exclaimed, “Awesome!”

The idea is not difficult to understand, but the production process and the process of summarizing experiments are extremely complicated, only those who try it know.

For Su Hao, it could even be called a test of patience endurance.

Until now, can it be said that Su Hao has completed the transformation of “thoughts”?

Not yet, far from it.

The gap lies in the decoding of consciousness information.

The storage device has indeed been made, and it can smoothly record and extract various information, but it still lacks a comprehensive “information conversion program.”

That is to say, there needs to be a “information conversion notebook” that records the corresponding array information of all human brain information, thereby achieving unimpeded communication between the human brain and the storage device.

The key to this “information conversion notebook” lies in the decoding of consciousness information.

The more he decodes consciousness information, the more comprehensive the types of information the storage device can store, and in the end, it may even reach the level of an external brain.

The research and achievements of these twenty years have just begun! It’s still far from truly completing the breakthrough of “thoughts”!

But Su Hao can already vaguely see the scenery in the distance!

“As long as consciousness information is decoded and a large amount of information is transferred to the ‘Knowledge Platform’ to form unimpeded connections, ‘thoughts’ will inevitably erupt at a certain critical point and undergo a transformation in an instant!”

Only that kind of “thought” which is to a certain extent detached from the physical body can be called “divine thought.”

The so-called “divine thought” of the combined cultivators is nothing more than an oversized knowledge thought!

Su Hao murmured, “Next, I will fully tackle the decoding of consciousness information. Based on my estimate, once it reaches twenty percent, the Knowledge Platform will be able to operate smoothly.”
