Chapter 172: Cultivation Technology Tree

Wuliang Mountain is nearly 8,000 kilometers away from Luoxia City. If it is a modern passenger plane, it will take more than ten hours to fly. However, it takes more than a day to travel with a spiritual boat. In other words, the flight speed of the spiritual boat is about 300 kilometers per hour.

According to Master Zhu's previous statement, the flight speed of the Jindan stage monk can break through the sound barrier. From this point of view, the speed of the spiritual boat driven by Mo Yunlan is much slower than that of him using the escape light to hurry on his own.

Mo Yunlan simply chose to use the spiritual boat to rush on his way just to take care of their new disciples who had just entered the Immortal Sect.

Mo Yunlan's spiritual boat is quite similar to the modern "Gulfstream G650" private jet, but its appearance is a violent breakthrough in aerodynamic principles.

The main structure of the spiritual boat looks like an ancient oriental attic, which is somewhat similar to the small inn in Luoxia City. It is square like a brick, and it is impossible to tell that it is an aircraft at all.

And unlike the planet's passenger plane, it has a pair of heavy wings to act as fuel tanks, and this spiritual boat does not even exist at all.

After Mo Yunlan's introduction, Lu Yang realized that this spiritual boat did not have a structure like a jet engine. The power was directly generated by the spiritual power provided by Mo Yunlan, which was very similar to the vector propulsion method of a fighter.

However, this spiritual boat does not have a structure like a vector engine, and the driving force is completely generated out of thin air.

Lu Yang couldn't help but think of a modern idiom:

The force is flying!

This thing is not so much a plane, but a rocket flying in the atmosphere.

This thrust that appeared out of thin air from the void made Lu Yang even more suspicious that the spiritual energy here should be a special application form of the standard energy of the Galaxy.

Overall, because the local immortal cultivators themselves have a very high level of control over spiritual energy, most of the "cultivation magic tools" in this world are simpler and more crude than their peers on earth in terms of structure, and do not talk about science.

People often pay more attention to their own control of spiritual power, rather than pay more attention to the scientific principles contained in the "magic tools" themselves.

Lu Yang couldn't say which is more advanced, the cultivation civilization or the earth civilization, but he was sure that the technology tree in the cultivation world had completely turned out to be wrong.

After everyone boarded the spiritual boat, Mo Yunlan arranged their seats immediately, leaving a sentence "Don't move around, otherwise you will bear the consequences at your own risk", and then walked towards the "cab" direction.

From the moment of takeoff, Mo Yunlan had to devote most of his energy to the control of the spiritual boat, and he had no time to take care of him.

From here, Lu Yang also discovered another major weakness of cultivation civilization:

The automation level is too low!

Even a vehicle such as a spiritual boat (aircraft) does not have an automatic cruise function, and the driver also needs to be on standby 24 hours a day.

During the stratosphere cruise, the captain can take a short break. If an accident occurs, the aircraft's automation system will naturally issue an alarm. In most cases, the aircraft's own automation system can solve the problem. The captain only needs to supervise on the side, and there are very few cases where the captain needs to manually operate it.

The degree of automation of the spiritual boat in the cultivation world is obviously very low, and at most it can only fly straight in the same direction without being controlled.

If any accident occurs during the flight, the monks need to adapt to the situation and rely on their own abilities to solve the problem.

Lu Yang can understand this characteristic of cultivation civilization.

After all, cultivation civilization emphasizes more on the power of the individual, rather than on the power of the collective.

Even though there is a strange "nature" in this world that prevents the strong from bullying the weak at will, this worship of personal abilities has not undergone essential changes.

Therefore, in most cases, monks who practice civilization rely on their own abilities to handle various matters.

Things like the Spirit Boat were designed purely by high-level monks to take care of ordinary mortals and other low-level monks. Their importance and popularity in this world are far less than those of planes on earth, and no one will organize human and material resources to study and improve this kind of thing.

After all, for monks, studying more advanced spiritual boats is just a small path, improving one's own cultivation and pursuing immortality is the best way to survive.

Even from the perspective of accumulating merits, the priority of improving the spiritual boat cannot be ranked.

After all, using the spiritual boat to fly consumes a lot of precious spiritual energy. This kind of high-end consumption cannot be consumed by mortals and low-level monks. For example, the immortal master Zhu will feel very painful even when he uses the escape light to travel, not to mention the spiritual boat that consumes dozens of times the escape light.

In other words, the spiritual boat is not needed by high-level monks, and the low-level monks cannot afford it.

The target users of the Lingzhou are mortals and low-level cultivators. Even the late-stage cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage have a flight speed that is no less than that of the spiritual boat controlled by Mo Yunlan, a powerful Jindan stage master, and they don’t look down on this useless product at all.

Only by teleporting important figures such as the holy spiritual roots, picking up relatives and friends with low cultivation levels in the cultivation world, transporting some precious monsters, and scrubbing some important demons, can the spiritual boat be sent to use it.

Use the spiritual boat to help others and accumulate merits. Perhaps you have not accumulated much merit, but you will go bankrupt first.

Therefore, this kind of transportation with extremely narrow application scope is just enough to be used by cultivators, and there is no need to spend time and in-depth research.

Not only Lingzhou, but all "cultivation technology products" that consume a little more spiritual energy have the characteristics of poor applicability, poor standardization and poor automation level.

These characteristics also make the development of cultivation civilization easily fall into bottlenecks.

As a personal cultivator, I have the energy to study "cultivation technology products", go to seclusion and improve my cultivation, study more large-scale destructive magic weapons, or kill a few more evil monsters to make merits. Isn't that good?

That is, Mo Yunlan's position happened to be the inspector elder of the Wuliang Sword Sect who was responsible for inspecting the southern part of Zhongzhou and dealing with various emergencies. He was assigned such a flying spirit boat by the sect...

Like the appearance of Lingzhou, the interior decoration of Lingzhou is also in an antique oriental classical style.

Because Mo Yunlan is a Jindan cultivator, the decoration here is even more luxurious than that of ordinary inns, and there are even many porcelain bottles and handicrafts that look very fragile at first sight.

Lu Yang was very strange at the beginning. With such a high-end and exquisite decoration, if you encounter any airflow during flight, won’t it be a mess in an instant?

What's even more terrible is that I didn't even see the seats here, which was simply a joke about the life of the passenger.

But after the spiritual boat took off, Lu Yang discovered that this "energy application is very advanced, but the control method is very primitive" aircraft was surprisingly stable during the flight, and there was no slight bump.

It was not until later that Lu Yang consulted the local Xiao Huang through his identity as the "unknown ancestor". Only then did he know that in order to protect his own safety, the spiritual boat would carve a set of "self-balancing protection immortal array" around him. It can not only offset various unexpected bumps, but also resist the frontal impact of high-speed airflow.

Even ordinary monks will use a similar set of immortal arts all over their bodies when they control the escape light. Otherwise, they will be blown towards their faces by the strong winds of hundreds of kilometers per hour for several hours, and even cultivators will not be able to withstand it.

The immortal array and immortal arts seem to be some strange creatures of this cultivation civilization!
