Alien Dust

Chapter 253 My Faith is My Teacher
Stepped onto the Bridge of Eternal Life.

Gao Chang glanced at Meng Zhang, the Taoist master of immortality.

Meng Zhang smiled in response, and even said to Gao Chang: "You made a very wise choice."

Gao Chang knew this young Taoist master and knew that he was the nephew of Meng Ting, the Right Lord of Changsheng, so he took off his white hat and expressed devoutly how honored he was to join the Changsheng Sect.

When he reached the middle of the bridge, Gao Chang couldn't help but look back at his niece.

Young and full of energy, but the next time I see her I'm afraid that just as Gao Yuyan said, there will only be an old black-and-white photo of her left in the cemetery.

"Give my regards to Youjun for me." Gao Chang said to the Taoist master.

Meng Zhang nodded and said no more.

Gao Chang did not hesitate any longer and took a step forward.

People are blindly obedient. When Gao Chang walked into the Changsheng Bridge with firm steps, some hesitant men and women on the side of the bridge also walked up one by one. In their opinion, since Gao Chang, a high-ranking human being, had chosen the Changsheng sect, what were they hesitant about? What's more, there were nearly one billion people ahead of them. This was an astonishing number. Are they all stupid?

Even if it is stupid, with so many people being stupid together, I can't blame myself for making the wrong choice. There must be something wrong with those who are leading the group!
The last wave of people has almost left.

The Taoist Master of Immortality, Meng Zhang, took another look at the Pure Land of Humankind to confirm that no one would accept their guidance anymore, so he stepped into the Bridge of Immortality.

The Changsheng Bridge finally disappeared. This gorgeous rainbow bridge that looked like a bridge to heaven took away 40% of the world's population. It was like an interstellar migration, but without the gorgeous spaceships...

On Changsheng Island, immortal flowers dotted the green earth like stars in the sky. Immortality vines full of vigor stood in a forest. Some of them were as tall as ladders to heaven, bordering the gray-blue sky.

Outside the island is an incomparably bright ocean, as pure as a boundless blue amber. Its softness and vastness are so mesmerizing that it is easy to be mesmerized.

On the hillside of the island, there are exquisite houses in the brilliant sea of ​​star-shaped flowers. These villas are like luxury holiday villas built by luxury hotels for some wealthy people. They are staggered and artistic. Not only do they transcend human craftsmanship, but they also perfectly hit the beauty that everyone enjoys in their dreams!
"This island is not very big, but we have one billion people. Can we accommodate everyone?" Someone raised the question at this time.

"You are distributed on different islands, and each island is isolated from each other. According to the era and living habits you live in, each island is roughly equivalent to your large-scale town. Of course, there are also some islands that are equivalent to your large cities and small towns... You can make your own choices." The disciple of the Changsheng Sect explained.

"If we want to meet and communicate with people from other islands, how can we reach their islands?" someone asked.

At this time, the guide of the Changsheng Sect smiled and shook his head and said, "We have already mentioned the rules. If you have relatives or friends, try to choose the same day or the same stage to cross the Changsheng Bridge. In that case, we will definitely arrange for you to be on the same island. In fact, we have studied your habits. We only need a large enough human community to meet all your needs. It is not necessary to communicate with more insignificant people. That will only add troubles and create anxiety."

"I see. This is indeed a good idea. Do we need to work for you? I heard that your Changsheng Sect will actually arrange us to an island to mine Yuanyou Mine... Mining Yuanyou Mine requires physical labor, mechanical operation, or learning some magic. In short, it's okay as long as we don't have to work 996." A white-collar worker said casually.

"It's not necessary for now. You can just live the way you like. But it is necessary to practice meditation with our Changsheng Jue every day. This can ensure your health and longevity." said the disciple of Changsheng Sect.

"No need to work, no falling, no disasters, and we can live forever... It feels like we have really arrived in Utopia!" Someone said excitedly soon.

"Yes!"

“Enjoy it!”

"By the way, I have to tell you one thing. Through our observation, we found that there is a gap among you from the old school. You also know that we need to be steadfast in practicing immortality. Once someone destroys this piety, we can only deprive the entire island of its immortality qualification. You will not be able to achieve immortality, but can only maintain your original lifespan..." said the disciple of the Immortality School.

"These people from the old school deserve to die. We will never allow them to stop us from achieving eternal life!"

"Yes, I am the most staunch believer in immortality."

"Dear disciples, please rest assured that we will find the gaps in the old faction. When the time comes, there will be no need for you to deal with them. We will execute them on the spot!"

The Changsheng Sect's disciple smiled slightly and said nothing more.

The final outcome of the island is already foreseeable.

All he needs to do is plant a seed of doubt, and then even the simplest contradictions will be infinitely magnified in this utopia. When everyone is intoxicated with this comfort, all he has to do is announce that the people on this island are not qualified for immortality and can only maintain their original lifespan. All their previous trivial conflicts will be ignited into "factional confrontation" and "life and death confrontation."

Killing each other is also a good and terrifying way to die.

The master should praise his design.

……

On the giant island of rest, the immortal maid Chu Zhi came to inspect.

There are nearly one million people on this island. They have lived here for several months and everyone is very satisfied with everything here. Almost everything people want, including food, clothing, housing, transportation, mountain and sea views, can be created. It is so dreamy that many people who come here for the first time feel it is a bit unreal.

"Zhuang Yi, long time no see." In order to make her image more human, the immortal maid Chu Zhi wore a cheongsam decorated with immortal flowers. Her black hair was tied up, revealing her jade-like neck. "Long time no see, Your Excellency the Maid." A gentle man with fair cheeks said politely. He was wearing a black suit.

"You're too polite. Just call me Chu Zhi. Are you satisfied with everything here?" Chu Zhi asked.

"Of course I'm satisfied. I'm almost reluctant to leave." Zhuang Yi smiled modestly and gently.

"You used the wrong word. This is your 'Shu'. Where does the 'thinking' come from?" Chu Zhi said.

"You are very familiar with our culture. I can see that you really want to accept everything about us. It's a pity that I can't go back to my homeland, otherwise I would tell Li Feng and the others about the perfection here and let them know that this place is not what they imagined." Zhuang Yi said.

"Well, after all, we have our own rules." Chu Zhi nodded. She raised her hand, shielding herself from the surroundings, as if she wanted to talk to Zhuang Yi alone.

Zhuang Yi didn't say anything about it, but just crossed his fingers and sat up straight.

"According to my observations these days, there are several humans who are very special. This makes me curious. Why are some extraordinary humans born under the same genetic module? For example, in terms of intelligence, martial arts, and evolutionary path..." asked the immortal maid Chu Zhi.

"In fact, we cannot answer your question. For example, there is a very famous person in our scientific community, Einstein, whose theory guides us forward. There are only a few people who can lead an era or even guide us into the next era among tens of billions of people and thousands of years. Biologists have proposed that they will be born when the human race reaches a certain scale." Zhuang Yi said.

"Has the scale reached a certain level?" The maidservant Chu Zhi was confused by this statement.

"Do you know the AI ​​we developed?" Zhuang Yi said.

"I've heard of it."

"It is said that AI had no intelligence at first, and the developers only developed it as a program. But after the developers fed AI with enough information, AI absorbed enough information and developed intelligence," said Zhuang Yi.

"What you mean is that when the scale reaches a certain level, there will naturally be exceptions. Then people like Li Feng, you, Wu Hen, Ming Yi, Shen Wenhai, He Ze, Tang Zhuo, Guan Quming, Liu Qing... all belong to this category?" Chu Zhi asked.

"It turns out that you know everything about us. The people you listed have all supported our entire home on their own at some point in this era. I feel honored to be among them," said Zhuang Yi.

Chu Zhi smiled, and a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes.

She picked up the cup and took a sip of water. After a while, she continued, "In fact, our original plan was to only guide these special humans. After all, the path to immortality is long and far away, and not everyone can understand its true meaning. If these special cases of you humans are willing to join us, we will be even happier. However, the vast majority of these human cases have their own unshakable beliefs and faiths..."

"Yes, Li Feng's belief lies in eternity, and this eternity is the eternal independence and strength of mankind."

"Wu Hen's belief is that he firmly believes that the emotions of the soul are above everything in the world."

"These two are mountains of humanity that you cannot shake."

Zhuang Yi nodded. Although he had never come into contact with Wu Hen, he was clear about his beliefs. Li Feng's beliefs and Wu Hen's beliefs were basically the lofty beliefs of the vast majority of people who would not abandon their homes. Even if the future was uncertain, even if it was bleak, light would bloom in their hearts as they were not afraid of anything.

"What about you? As the leader of 40% of the world's human beings, you also have admirable beliefs, don't you?" Chu Zhi asked.

When Zhuang Yi heard this, a smile slowly appeared on his face.

Chu Zhi felt that Zhuang Yi's smile was a little strange.

Zhuang Yi was smiling the whole time, staring at Chu Zhi with a strange look in his eyes, and his smile was even stranger.

"As you know, I am a student of Teacher Li Feng." Zhuang Yi finally spoke.

"But in our opinion, you are more outstanding, which is why we want you to become a part of us. You should understand that I am not referring to a member of the Changsheng Sect, but a higher dimension..." Chu Zhi said.

Zhuang Yi maintained that strange smile, and when he looked at Chu Zhi, it was as if he was looking at a ridiculous prey!

"Aren't you interested in my beliefs?" Zhuang Yi asked.

"You chose us. No matter what your beliefs were in the past, your beliefs now are our Changsheng Sect." Chu Zhi said.

“I’m sorry, but you will never be able to shake my belief. There is a person in this world who is like a god in my heart. I firmly believe that only he can find a way out for all of humanity.” Zhuang Yi slowly stood up.

"What did you say?"

"My belief is my teacher!" Zhuang Yi stood in front of Chu Zhi, pointed at Chu Zhi's pretty cheek, and said with a disdainful and mocking tone, "Even if you used biological signals to change my cognition and let me see you as an intelligent and kind woman, I can still smell the insect stench emanating from you!!"
