I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 468 Only by climbing high can one know the vastness of heaven and earth; only by seeing far can one realize the immensity of the universe.

for the rest of the time.

As the transformation of the Emerald Islands progressed smoothly, transformation work also began in the other three locations.

Meanwhile, Jiang Zhe and the others were making final preparations for their journey to Yuexing.

Their training went beyond just how to build a base on the moon; it also included adapting to space.

This mission is ultimately different from the previous ones.

Even if they are extraordinary beings in the Transcendent Realm.

But once they enter space, they are not much different from ordinary people.

Therefore, this process is essential.

"This is our latest spacesuit, which integrates the latest energy technology and new materials. It can not only withstand the extreme environment of the moon, but also greatly enhance its resistance to cosmic radiation!"

In the training room.

Researchers displayed the only ten new spacesuits available to the public.

"However, this spacesuit is quite heavy, so you'll need to get used to it over the next few days."

It's quite heavy?
Upon hearing this, no one took it seriously.

They are all extraordinary beings at the Transcendent Realm now, surely they can bear the weight of a spacesuit?
however.

The moment the group put them on, their expressions changed.

While it wasn't unbearable, it still put them under some pressure.

Even Nangong Hong couldn't help but frown.

His physical body was the strongest among everyone.

However, he still cannot move freely.

This outfit limited his strength by at least half.

Of course, this is also because he hasn't gotten used to wearing it yet.

It will probably get much better after a period of adjustment.

"No wonder only those at the Transcendent Realm can accept this mission."

"If someone at the Innate Realm were here, they probably wouldn't even be able to run!"

Jiang Zhe shook his head.

After arriving at Moonstar, they will still need to build a base.

Actions should not be greatly affected.

The researcher smiled as he watched everyone's actions.

A Transcendent Realm expert had already come to test it out, which is why he gave the others a few days to adapt.

Otherwise, putting on such a heavy spacesuit would really affect their actions.

However, there was still a hint of amazement on his face.

If an ordinary person were to be weighed down by 500 pounds, they wouldn't even be able to move.

But these people were only slightly affected.

In the past, who would have dared to imagine such a thing?

But he quickly put those thoughts out of his mind.

"Alright, now I'll explain the functions of this spacesuit to you."

……

A week later.

Jiang Zhe and the others have also completed all the training.

As for the weight of the spacesuits, the group adapted to it completely in just one day.

Nangong Hong completed the task in less than half a day.

This speed is several days faster than Wang Hai, who participated in the previous test.

The main reason is that all ten people here have very high levels of martial arts skill.

Wang Hai was only at the mid-stage of the Ming Jin realm back then.

All ten of them were at least at the peak of Ming Jin (明劲).

Their control over their bodies is naturally much greater than Wang Hai's.

Therefore, even though they are both at the Transcendent Realm, the difference in strength is still very large!

Take Nangong Hong as an example.

If I were to fight Wang Hai, I could win within three moves.

This is the power of the hidden strength level.

"The spacecraft is ready for launch."

"Get ready, we'll be heading to Moonstar in one hour!"

Everyone nodded.

At this point, everyone's hearts were filled with mixed emotions.

There was tension and excitement.

Of course, there's more anticipation than anything else.

After all, this was their first time going to space.

Even Ji Xuan, who had already carried out missions on the space station, was full of anticipation.

Space stations and the moon are ultimately different!

Ultimately, the former is still within the Earth's orbit.

But the latter has already arrived on another planet.

"Life support systems are functioning normally, and air circulation channels are clear!"

In the control room.

Researchers at the base are conducting final checks.

Jiang Zhe and the others were already waiting on the metal platform in front of the launch site.

Three other astronauts were also with them this time.

However, their job was merely to assist Jiang Zhe and others in completing the preliminary work.

The three will return to Earth in a week.

"The power system has stable energy output and sufficient source crystals, ready for takeoff at any time."

soon.

With the last sound fading, the spaceship's inspection was complete.

The most important part of the inspection is the power system.

It can be said that all facilities on the spacecraft rely on the power system to operate.

If the power system malfunctions, the consequences will be unimaginable.

And in order to ensure sufficient power.

This spaceship is equipped with a full five hundred high-grade source crystals.

With such a large amount of energy, there is no need to worry about running out of energy for at least a year.

Of course, this is on the premise that the consumption is not too high.

If it is always propelled by power.

At most, the energy will be completely depleted in half a month.

"Everyone, I'm entrusting the construction of the Moonstar Base to you all this time!"

"I'll be waiting for your good news on Earth."

In front of the launch platform, Director Zhang gave everyone one last instruction.

If their mission succeeds, humanity will truly enter the interstellar age!

So he had no choice but to say a few more words.

"do not worry!"

Jiang Zhe nodded solemnly, then said to the others:
"Come aboard!"

The words fell.

The group of thirteen people walked into the spaceship at the same time.

Unlike ordinary lunar modules, the interior of the spacecraft was surprisingly spacious.

The specially designed seats are arranged in a hexagonal pattern, with a huge control panel in the center.

"Close the hatch, activate the air circulation system."

The team had practiced the basic operations of the spaceship many times during this period, so they were not unfamiliar with them!
After Jiang Zhe gave the order, everyone else quickly took their positions.

Meanwhile, outside the spaceship.

The booster began to emit a low hum.

Unlike the deafening roar of traditional rockets, the propulsion engines of this spacecraft operate almost silently, with only subtle fluctuations in the air indicating the accumulation of enormous energy.

"Ready to launch!"

【5、4、3、2、1】

The moment the countdown reached zero, the spaceship shot into the sky like an arrow.

Even though everyone present was a Transcendent Realm expert, it still caused their blood and qi to surge.

The propulsion system of a spacecraft is far superior to that of previous rockets.

Such a powerful gravitational overload is simply unbearable for ordinary people.

The other three astronauts, if they hadn't taken the original medicine beforehand and had been protected by a special safety cabin, would probably not have been able to board the spacecraft at all.

Unfortunately, current technology is not advanced enough to develop a complete anti-gravity system.

Even specially designed safety protection chambers can only partially offset the effect.

Of course, Nangong Hong and the others didn't need it.

Even a transcendent being in the Transcendent Realm can barely withstand this level of overload.

in a blink.

The view outside the window quickly changed from blue to black, and the arc of the Earth slowly unfolded in the field of vision.

"First acceleration complete, preparing for track adjustment."

In the Earth command center, commands were rapidly transmitted.

"Roger that!"

After giving a brief reply, Jiang Zhe immediately began to control the spaceship.

A few minutes later.

The shaking of the bulkhead suddenly stopped.

The persistent, oppressive feeling of gravity on his chest vanished like the receding tide. Clearly, the spaceship had broken free from Earth's final gravitational pull.

"so beautiful!"

Sudden.

Ji Ruxue's voice attracted the attention of others.

Following the line of sight.

Then they saw it.

Outside the window, a huge blue planet floats silently in the dark void.

Its edges are tinged with a thin, veil-like layer of atmosphere.

Cloud vortexes churned near the terminator, emerald auroras danced in the polar sky, and the vast Eastern Ocean reflected the sunlight.

soon.

Earth is shrinking at a visible rate, and every continent is now fully revealed.

That was a magnificent scene that no photograph or video could compare to!

At that moment, everyone held their breath.

"It's always like this the first time."

"A year ago, when I first went on a mission to near Earth orbit, I felt the same way you do!"

Jiang Zhe smiled as he looked at everyone's expressions.

He also looked out the window, and even after seeing the scene many times, he was still deeply moved.

"Look over there."

The next moment, Jiang Zhe suddenly pointed to deep space.

A silver line could be seen slowly streaking across the starry sky.

That's the International Space Station.

It was also humanity's first outpost in space.

Compared to the boundless void, this space station appears utterly insignificant.

Like a speck of dust.

"One day, I will go to the more distant stars!"

Looking at the boundless void, Nangong Hong's eyes were filled with longing.

Only by leaving Earth can one truly understand one's own insignificance.

Even though they are extraordinary beings in the Transcendent Realm.

In the universe, however, they are no different from ordinary people.

"Only by climbing high can one know the vastness of heaven and earth; only by seeing far can one realize the immensity of the universe!"

"Perhaps, this is the meaning of cultivation!"

Beside her, Ji Ruxue murmured to herself.

now.

This is not only her thought, but everyone's.

Unbeknownst to them, everyone's mindset was subtly changing.

"Prepare for the first track correction!"

After a while.

A notification sound brought everyone back to reality.

Pulling themselves out of their thoughts, the group followed the instructions from the Earth command center and began their journey towards the lunar orbit.

Next.

It only needs to continue its journey in lunar orbit, and it will be able to enter near-lunar orbit in one day.

This speed is two days faster than when Xia Yuan traveled to the moon in the lunar module last time.

……

after one day.

On the spaceship.

"Attention everyone, you are about to enter lunar orbit."

"The spaceship is expected to land on the moon in about thirty minutes!"

In fact, no reminder was needed; everyone had already noticed the change in the gravitational field!

However, compared to Earth's gravity, the gravitational pull here is much weaker.

Everyone even felt that their spacesuits were much lighter.

"Once you arrive at Moonstar, the first thing you should do is survey the surrounding environment."

Through the communicator, Director Zhang continued:
"The spacecraft's communicators are always operational, so you can contact us at any time if you encounter any problems."

"Yes!"

After the exchange.

The outlines of the moon and stars were already close at hand.

They could even vaguely see the craters on the moon.

[Entering lunar orbit, deceleration begins.]

As the command was issued.

The power system starts instantly.

The spaceship slowly descended from the sky.

After a while.

A slight vibration was heard.

The spacecraft landed smoothly on the surface of the moon.

"Success!"

In the command room.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Despite having tested it many times before, they were still on tenterhooks.

After all, we are heading to the moon and stars.

Fortunately, nothing went wrong.

"Alright, let's get started on preparations. Make sure all research groups are ready to go at any time."

"Yes!"

Director Zhang gave a briefing.

Soon, they began to organize personnel from all sides to carry out ground assistance work.

The first thing is resupply.

This could initially only be provided by Earth.

Of course, Jiang Zhe and the others all carried some original medicine.

As for food, that's not the only thing to worry about.

The most important items are some scientific research equipment and parts used to build the lunar base.

However, transporting these things no longer requires a spaceship.

Modern rockets can also accomplish this task.

"Is this the moon and stars?"

Looking at the planet outside, both strange and familiar.

The three astronauts who had been lying in the safety cabin were all extremely excited.

Landing on the moon has always been a dream for countless astronauts.

Now, they've finally gotten what they wanted!
However, the others weren't much better off.

Everyone has been waiting and can't wait!
Anyone would feel this way upon arriving on another planet for the first time.

Wasn't Xia Yuan the same way back then?

I just don't know if they'll still be the same as they are now after some time has passed.

"Brother Sun, you guys stay here for now, we'll go check out the situation nearby."

Jiang Zhe smiled and said to the group.

All three of them are just ordinary people, and acting rashly could be dangerous.

So it's better to leave this kind of thing to them.

This mission is no simple matter.

"According to Director Zhang, the spiritual plant that the ancestor planted should be nearby. Let's go find the spiritual plant first."

"We'll plan how to build the base later."

After giving his instructions, Jiang Zhe immediately began arranging the follow-up work.

"it is good!"

Everyone nodded, and no one objected.

This mission is not easy.

They only have one year.

The progress of the base construction over the next year will determine how many contribution points each person can earn.

If the task is not completed, the contribution points will be greatly reduced.

They also hoped to use the contribution points from this mission to exchange for cultivation techniques or accelerate their cultivation.

Therefore, no one wants to waste time.

Of course, this doesn't stop them from looking around.

After all, everyone was quite curious since they had just arrived in Moonstar.

"Then let's meet here in half a day."

As Jiang Zhe said this, he kept staring at Bai Zhengyu.

"Old Jiang, why are you looking at me like that?"

Bai Zhengyu was stared at for a moment, feeling completely bewildered.

"I just wanted to remind you that this is Moonstar, so don't cause any trouble."

"???"

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhengyu looked completely bewildered.

No?

When did my image become so bad?
