Transmigrator's Guide to Conquering Another World-Chapter 318 - 299: Locking onto the Celestial Palace! (Double-Length - )

"Because I believe that with Zhang Daoling's capabilities, he wouldn't be able to keep a Celestial Palace fixed in the sky for over two thousand years.

Unless the records from Qingcheng Mountain are mistaken, and that 'Earth Palace' was not his doing but rather a legacy left by predecessors."

Zhang Daoling, originally named Zhang Ling.

He was from Feng County in the Eastern Han Dynasty and the founder of the Five Pecks of Rice sect, thus attaining the title of Celestial Master Zhang.

He was born in the tenth year of Han Guangwu Jianwu, which corresponds to the 30s A.D., and it's rumored he ascended at the age of 122.

Now, after confirming the existence of a 'Celestial Palace' in Qingcheng Mountain capable of emitting Spiritual Energy and Y particles,

the experts are almost certain that this Celestial Master Zhang was indeed a cultivator, definitely deserving the title of "Celestial Master" in an ancient context.

On the other hand,

the 30s A.D. is very distant from now, nearly two thousand years ago.

But the experts can assure that during that period, there was absolutely no Spiritual Energy in Huaxia—or at least no large-scale Spiritual Energy environment.

After all, numerous Eastern Han documents have been unearthed through archaeology, yet very few official records mention immortals; most accounts are of ordinary people.

Moreover, if that were the case, the late Han Three Kingdoms wouldn't have been just an ordinary chaotic era.

It should be called "Mythical Three Kingdoms," with Lu Bu capable of smashing Hulao Pass with a punch and planting wild grass before Dong Zhuo's tomb on the side.

Therefore, barring any anomalies, regions with Spiritual Energy in the late Han period must have been very few.

Zhang Daoling's situation is probably like the protagonist of a contemporary urban cultivation novel: in that era, he would be the only, or at most one of few cultivators.

Perhaps he obtained some sort of legacy or discovered some blessed land, which set him on the path to cultivation.

Considering the lack of local Spiritual Energy and Zhang Daoling's years of lifespan,

the experts estimate that the level of this Celestial Master Zhang likely fluctuated around Core Formation.

Of course.

This is merely a conjecture.

Because with the discovery of the Celestial Palace, the mysteries at home are no fewer than those of the Damo Realm.

For example, several thousand years ago, did a grand era of cultivation truly exist locally?

Were those ancient myths and legends actually about powerful cultivators?

But if such a grand era existed, why is there no written record or relic left behind?

Overall,

after scientifically analyzing some mysteries of cultivation, the experts can now relatively acknowledge these myths and legends. Even if they hypothetically existed, they would only be relatively powerful cultivators.

They are human, not gods.

In a sense, this explanation is more acceptable than those mystical inherent deities and immortals.

Returning to Zhang Daoling.

Although everything is still a hypothesis,

if Zhang Daoling's level really was just around Core Formation, then he basically wouldn't have the ability to make a Celestial Palace float for two thousand years.

Even if he had certain talismans, he absolutely couldn't achieve it—Mo Peidong's Tier Three Cloud Concealment Talisman only lasted a hundred years, let alone the much faster rate of talisman malfunction on native soil.

A hundred-year talisman from Damo Realm would be effective for only thirty years on native soil at best.

Though the scale of the Earth Palace is still unclear, based on conventional notions, it should be at least a few hundred square meters, like a common temple.

If it exists in a proximate space, it means it has at least floating and invisibility capabilities.

If it's only for a short time, that's manageable, but to sustain for over two thousand years?

Honestly, if it had such Spiritual Energy, Earth could fly to Betelgeuse and prod Orion's belt.

But an alternate space is different.

Even a dead object in an alternate space can 'float' for a long time—because it is essentially an independent space. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Of course.

It's not out of the question for Zhang Daoling to have found a device similar to a Spiritual Energy generator, allowing him to continuously 'whirr' like Show Luo.

However, this possibility is indeed much smaller than that of an alternate space.

Therefore, Li Bai'an's hypothesis is more in line with reality, although the difficulty of opening alternate spaces is likely much greater than that of proximate spaces.

At this moment, as Lin Ziming and Li Bai'an were casually chatting, Wang Hua's slightly excited voice suddenly came through:

"Colonel Lin, A2, A2 has feedback!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Ziming exchanged glances with Li Bai'an, and both rushed to the control console:

"Engineer Wang, which altitude is A2 set at?"

Wang Hua pointed at the fluctuating line at the bottom of the screen and said,

"The 3000 meters altitude line....

Whoa, look, A3 is responding too.

The B1 B2 B3 at 10,000 meters haven't reacted, indicating the Celestial Palace should be between 3000 to 10,000 meters."

Then he told Technician Feng Ping:

"Xiaofeng, pull over A1's position and search upwards with all three devices.

Also, lower the B group at 10,000 meters to quickly lock the area!"

"Understood!"

Feng Ping swiftly typed on the keyboard, appearing very calm as the technical support of the Long March series:

"A group altitude is rising, B group is descending!"

"A group's altitude is at 3800 meters, still capturing Y particles!"

"B group descended to 7600 meters, sensor net shows no reaction!"

"A..."

"B...."

In the high altitude.

Each group of three detectors formed a massive detection module, incredibly close to each other yet non-interfering.

Space station docking-level technology was once again exhibited in this hidden high altitude area.

Up, down.

Three minutes later, Feng Ping's gaze sharpened:

"Detected a high density of Y particles in the 4323-meter range, but no reaction at 4324.8 meters.

Nailed it, the Celestial Palace is in alternate space!"
