Star City.

central Park.

The sky was overcast and drizzle fell, and the cool breeze after autumn carried the drizzle and slapped it on my face.

Feng Qi, dressed in black, stood in the rain and looked at the statue of the hero, which was more than 30 meters high.

There is also a stone tablet standing in front of the hero's statue, which is engraved with his life story and his contribution to Star City.

Flowers and wine are neatly placed in front of the statue. People from Star City come to present flowers and wine every day, and there are also dedicated personnel to clean it.

His heroic statues are often maintained.

"What a big boss."

Xiaoyou then pointed at the statue of the hero and exclaimed, then turned to look at Feng Qi and said curiously:

"Boss, why is your statue weapon pointed? Isn't it a magic sword?"

As he spoke, Xiaoyou made a few false jabs with his sword towards Feng Qi.

"This is not called a sharp point, this is a sword, one of the weapons commonly used by humans."

"Why not the magic sword?"

Xiaoyou blinked and continued to ask.

"The sword is the king of weapons in the eyes of the human race. It is a symbol of force and can also be understood as strength. The book on the left hand of the statue symbolizes knowledge and means the combination of knowledge and force. This is a must for the growth of the human race.

Two weapons."

"Ouch." Xiaoyou nodded in understanding.

After answering Xiaoyou's doubts, Feng Qi raised his head and looked at the statue of the hero in the distance.

What can be imagined is that this heroic statue blended into his blood has collected a large amount of power of faith for him on the main timeline.

But until today, Star City has not announced how to connect with his faith on the main timeline.

Experiments have proven that the faith growth route he had high hopes for has hidden dangers.

He and Wei Wei will not be spiritually corroded by their faith connection, but ordinary people are different and cannot perfectly match the spiritual fluctuations of the main timeline. As a result, the spiritual power of the main timeline is always eroding believers who want to borrow their innate abilities.

The erosion may come from negative emotions in the main timeline, or it may be something else.

It's like a deal with the devil.

Every time you borrow your innate ability, you have to pay a price, and the final result is spiritual pollution.

He once wanted to set the faith growth route as the first choice for replacing the human growth system after Mu Zhen's failure.

But this timeline no longer seems realistic.

The final choice can only rely on the improvement and perfection of the rune transformation route.

He also discussed the issue of faith connection with the Lord of Mist when he went to Mist City.

However, the Lord of the Mist knows very little about the faith route and cannot analyze the reasons, let alone give useful suggestions.

If you want to solve the problem of mental erosion, you have to rely on Lin Ran.

The good news is that Lin Ran has already figured out some clues and is working on a solution.

But he knew that Lin Ran's time was running out.

As a member of the human race, although Lin Ran possesses intelligence that is unparalleled in an era, he is still limited by his flesh and blood body. His short life span is the shackles for him to solve difficult problems.

Even though there are tools such as genetic potions to assist in extending life, Wei Wei also made it clear that Lin Ran's ability to live to more than 200 years old is the limit. If he wants to obtain a longer life, he must cooperate with genetic potions and practice at the same time.

But even so, Lin Ran's lifespan still has an upper limit.

The most important thing is that Lin Ran will not choose to rely on cultivation to extend his life.

Because cultivation also requires time, if time is spent on cultivation, research will not make any progress, and life will continue to pass.

The same problem occurs to all Scarlet Research Institute staff.

Don’t they want to extend their lives through cultivation?

The fact is that they have no time to practice at all, and heavy work takes up most of their lives.

This is also the reason why the staff of the Scarlet Research Institute need dietary therapy to regulate their bodies.

To solve this problem, the only way is for the explosive development of the cultivation system, so that the physical fitness enhancement effect obtained through cultivation far exceeds the time consumed by cultivation.

For example, if you practice for one minute, you will gain three minutes of life.

But it is not easy to increase the upper limit of practicing skills to this step.

Looking at the domain world, there are very few domain forces that can do this, and most of the domain forces are unable to escape the crushing force of time on life.

It seems simple, but if it were easy to do, there would be no such thing as old age and death.

According to old fans, transcending the shackles of life is a growth system that only exists for those super domain forces.

Once you reach that stage of growth, your lifespan will always be ahead of time and will no longer be limited by time.

Even the Mist Tribe has never had such a training system.

Even flesh and blood sacrifice cannot do this.

It's not that the Flesh and Blood Sacrifice isn't good enough, the Flesh and Blood Sacrifice is just a basic god-level technique, which is different from the main technique that perfectly matches humans.

This is not a problem that can be solved by traveling through the timeline a few more times.

What he needs to do is to enhance the overall growth potential of mankind and lay a solid foundation for human development.

Only with the solid foundation in front can the human edifice rise from the ground.

He originally thought that as long as he kept traveling through time lines, human cultivation techniques would be able to grow infinitely.

Thinking about it now, he felt that his idea at the time was too naive.

The foundation is the key to determining the upper limit of the future. This is the conclusion he drew from his experience.

Based on the early development status of Star City when he first gained the ability to travel through timelines, even if he restarted the timeline a hundred times, the strength of his practice would be difficult to achieve further breakthroughs after reaching a certain bottleneck.

The development of a race never proceeds steadily.

It is wishful thinking to want to develop the human race over multiple 1500 years.

Learn from history.

It took millions of years for humans to enter the agricultural age from the Stone Age.

However, it only took a few hundred years to move from the agricultural age to the industrial age. Later, airplanes, ships, and even spacecraft to the stars were quickly created.

It is unrealistic to continue to advance the progress of cultivation techniques by traveling through time on the original basis.

What mankind needs is a foundation and opportunity for explosive development.

He is now planning the development of Star City, and even planning the construction of a new city for the cultivation system, just to create a new opportunity for the human race and become the fuse for explosive development.

He and the human race still have a long way to go before they can obtain the pass for a strong race to break free from the shackles of time.

In fact, there are also some strong people among human beings who have a life span beyond normal.

But they are not ordinary people.

For example, Wei Wei, she is the miracle in Mu Jun's mouth. According to the existing intelligence clues, it is speculated that Wei Wei is a special human being who has activated some of the life-sustaining powers of the Pillar Gods.

They are a very small minority among all mankind and cannot represent all mankind.

Now he can actually be classified as a special human being.

Now that he has merged with the magic sword, his life form has transformed and he has a long lifespan.

He didn't know exactly how many years he could live, but judging from the aging of his body, he felt that it would not be a problem for him to live for thousands of years or even longer.

However, this special case cannot be replicated, let alone promoted on a large scale.

His thoughts returned to the present, and when he looked at the statue of the hero standing in the center of the park, Feng Qi felt a heavy sense of responsibility.

This heroic glory does not only belong to him.

Coming to the statue of the hero, Feng Qi put down the flowers in his hand.

"You humans are really weird. Why do you give flowers to the statues of your own heroes? Is this a sign of narcissism?"

After seeing this scene, Lei Lei couldn't help but wonder, seemingly unable to understand Feng Qi's behavior.

Feng Qi did not answer the question, just smiled and shook his head, then turned and left.

Lei Lei didn't know his experience, so he would naturally feel strange.

But what he gave flowers to remember was not himself, but the past.

They are those who endure the darkness for their ideal prosperous age. Many of them are still nailed to the pillar of shame after their death, and are spurned by future generations.

They will always have a share of the heroic glory that this future line receives.

Most people in Star City are unaware of their contribution, but Feng Qi always remembers it in his heart.

Behind the current prosperous Star City, there have been many sacrifices. He walked forward with a heavy burden, stepping on the mud to push the development of Star City to the current prosperous scene.
