A higher-dimensional incarnation, starting by leveraging the stars.

Chapter 28 Opening the Door to a New World

When you were a test-taker in the past, and went through great lengths to get into your desired school and major, you might relax and let yourself go in college when you no longer have the same sense of urgency as in high school.

But as a potential academic star who can memorize the first two years of undergraduate textbooks in a week, I would never do that, because such a jerk can actually feel the joy of learning!

Why is he considered a near-top student? Because his brain has evolved, enabling him to remember everything he sees, and it continues to evolve. However, his IQ has only increased to a limited extent and he still needs time to process everything.

Even so, the various courses in his university major seemed to open the door to a new world, and combined with his ability to manipulate stars at will, the fun was even greater.

For example, the book he's holding in his hand, "Introduction to Planetary Atmospheric Chemistry," is enough to keep him daydreaming all day...

Of course, this is just a thought; it's merely an interdisciplinary subject related to his major, not his primary job.

In a corner of Jiangnan University Library, Hu Biao was engrossed in flipping through the thick volumes in front of him: "Microbiology of Extreme Environments," "Ecoinformatics: Principles and Practice," and so on.

"I guess I made the right choice in this major!" he muttered to himself, picking up "Microbiology of Extreme Environments" with his right hand while flipping through a chapter of "Introduction to Planetary Atmospheric Chemistry" with his left.

In my mind, the knowledge from the two books flowed down like computer code...

The knowledge from the two books is colliding, merging, and connecting in his consciousness, and ultimately becoming his own knowledge.

This shows how important it is to choose the right major!

Hu Biao, who was once a high school student, possessed high-dimensional abilities and a high-dimensional vision, enabling him to travel through the universe and see the scenery everywhere. But in the end, it was just a superficial sensory experience.

He can see the splendor of stars, the outlines of planets, the flow of nebulae, and even the collapse of a star, but what good is that?

He once saw a terrestrial planet with a blue atmosphere and got excited, assuming it had water and life like Earth. But when he magnified it with his hand, he realized he had been too naive.

"Oh, there's no water, it's just the atmosphere that's blue."

I saw green patches on the surface of another planet, initially mistaking them for plants. Upon closer inspection, I realized they were vast expanses of green crystals…

Etc., etc……

But what are the components of that blue atmosphere, and what are the components of the green crystal?

What is the composition of the planet's atmosphere? What is its atmospheric pressure? What is its temperature range?

Are they three generations of poor peasants or landlords?

They were completely clueless.

With this level of skill, is it possible to achieve immortality?

No!

Take Proxima Centauri B as an example.

His previous method for testing the Proxima Centauri B environment was extremely simple and crude.

Catch a few animals and throw them over there, observe their reactions, because if those animals survive for a period of time, it's a preliminary indication of the oxygen content in the planet's atmosphere.

Just like ancient doctors testing the toxicity of hundreds of herbs, it was effective, but dangerous, inefficient, and lacked theoretical support, resulting in extremely limited information.

Besides, he simply didn't have that much time, so it wouldn't make any sense.

He's just a freshman; how could the responsibility of exploring the universe possibly fall on his shoulders?

Therefore, he dared not bring back any of the creatures he threw into Proxima Centauri B for testing.

Whether it's animals, plants, or humans...

Like Sowin and those other leaders of the Southeast Asian religious groups, when they were on Proxima Centauri B, Hu Biao also kept them in a higher-dimensional ecosystem, rather than letting them actually appear on Proxima Centauri. As for the cold, difficulty breathing, and so on that they experienced...

Do you think that the feeling of an ordinary person in a higher dimension is the same as that of Hu Biao in a higher dimension?

How is that possible!

Having experienced the joy of being a top student, he spent all his free time in the library after military training, except for his major courses, which broadened his horizons.

"I remember the materials on the Shan Hai civilization translated by the Second Archaeological Institute. The spiritual plants of that civilization grew in very strange and extreme environments, very similar to extraterrestrial environments!"

The Second Institute of Botany has questioned the materials translated by the Institute of Archaeology more than once. According to the Institute of Archaeology's translation, many seeds require extreme environments to survive, environments that do not exist on Earth and are similar to extraterrestrial environments. There is no evidence to prove that the Shanhai Civilization was a cosmic civilization, and such extreme and changeable environments did not exist on Earth during the time when the Shanhai Civilization existed. Therefore, they believe that the translation is wrong.

However, the people at the Second Archaeological Institute firmly disagreed, insisting that their translation was correct, citing the phased achievements of the Institute of Botany as proof, since those achievements were obtained by imitating the content they had translated.

As for the difficulty in simulating a more realistic environment, that's a matter of technological level, not their problem. Recently, based on data from the remains of the Shanhaiguan civilization, the Second Archaeological Institute, following the clues, found a spiritual plant garden buried deep underground by the Shanhaiguan civilization. They unearthed some ancient seeds from it, and the growth environment required by these seeds was very strange, completely unavailable on Earth. Therefore, the Second Institute of Botany objected again, once again claiming that the deciphering was incorrect.

Looking at the book "Introduction to Planetary Atmospheric Chemistry" in his hand, Hu Biao seemed to be thinking, "Perhaps I could try it out on another planet."

Environments unsimulated on Earth are not hard to find in the universe. Take the seeds found this time, for example. Their growth environment is extremely similar to that of Venus. The Institute of Botany simulated the Venusian environment but failed. Therefore, they concluded that no matter how ancient the seeds are, they are carbon-based organisms, and carbon-based organisms cannot survive in that environment. So, the Institute of Archaeology was wrong. The Institute of Archaeology does not agree, believing that compared to the development of biotechnology in the Shan Hai civilization, the level of biotechnology development on Earth is extremely low. It's not that they are wrong, but that the knowledge level of the researchers at the Institute of Botany simply does not meet the requirements of the Shan Hai civilization. The so-called simulation of the Venusian environment on Earth is inadequate, merely a superficial effort. Seeds are meant to be planted underground, not just in a surface environment. They haven't simulated the essence. So, as the saying goes, the Institute of Botany is blaming gravity for its own inability to produce results…

Both sides have their own version of events, leading to a somewhat tense situation.

"Venus, even its surface temperature is 460 degrees Celsius, its pressure is 92 times that of the atmosphere, and it has sulfuric acid clouds... There really are plants that can grow inside. Hmm, we'll see. We found quite a few seeds this time, let's give it a try!"

This is their advantage. For basketball, simulating an alien environment is like the blind men and the elephant, but for them, it's just a blink of an eye.

"According to archaeologists, those seeds are the prototype of the legendary fire date. I want to see if they can actually bear fruit!"
