ng Lang personally escorted the two out of Nanshan Temple.
Master Intelligent brought his hands together in a prayerful salute and smiled.
"It was truly a fortunate life event to chat with young friend ng today. If you find the ti, you are welco to visit Nanshan Temple anyti to enjoy tea and discuss the Tao."
"To receive guidance from the master is deeply appreciated; I will definitely visit again."
Just before leaving, ng Lang turned around and asked another question.
"By the way, Master, you said all sentient beings have Buddha-nature, but can those that are not sentient beings also attain Buddhahood?"
Master Intelligent was montarily stunned, then he smiled lightly.
"Amitābha! All sentient beings have Buddha-nature, and thus attain Buddhahood. Plants and trees are part of the Dharma; they have Dharma-nature. Dharma-nature is Buddha-nature, originally of the sa essence.
Dharma-nature is Buddha-nature, originally without confusion; therefore, there is no cycle of life and death. All mountains, rivers, and lands arise and perish due to conditions; all flowers, grass, and stones are the Buddha bodies of the Tathāgatas.
If one has compassion, anyone can beco a Buddha!"
"emm..."
ng Lang sighed softly in his heart.
Regrettably, in this world, fewer attain Buddhahood, and many more fall into devilry...

In the year 2023, the "Artificial Intelligence Revolution" began.
That year, the silver-white robot logo, sitting cross-legged above the starry sky as if in deep ditation, stunned the world!
Baiyeji, having developed feathers, took five years to establish a vast Cloud Computing Center, spanning the entirety of Huaxia, and began mass application of the comrcially produced 28 nanoter Light Chip "A".
The "cognitively aware AI" capable of understanding the world and providing efficient feedback perford as expected, triggering a systemic efficiency revolution...
Web3.0 technology accelerated this process.
By 2025, Baiyeji’s market share in cloud computing had already broken through 50%!
Despite being continually defeated, an alliance of AI giants including Microsoft, Google, Never Die, and Amazon, stimulated the accelerated developnt of AI technology.
By adopting a "shallow-to-deep" progressive technology rollout, the competition brought about by advanced AI technology diffusion was controllable.
Baiyeji’s AI technology maintained a lead in the forefront.
Continuously deploying more advanced algorithms, reducing the operational costs of Cloud Computing Centers, Baiyeji defeated all competitors with a sweeping force.
Eventually, it established a "Cloud Computing Hegemony" centered in Asia with a global reach.
Besides Asia, most of the cloud computing markets in Europe, a large part of Latin Arica, and almost all of Africa were captured.
With the massive explosion of telecommunication technology, mobile phones were replaced by cloud phones, computers by cloud computing machines, and vehicles by cloud cars...
The entire world welcod the era of Cloud Computing!
However, trendous asymtric advantages brought great uncertainties.
Consequently, a series of storms in education, employnt, technology, economics, and even politics ensued...
Without giving the major global capitals any opportunities to intervene, Baiyeji, the absolute dark horse in the AI race, rose like a cot, directly smashing the technological barriers constructed by capital.
Naturally, it faced the full force of almost all competitive capitals.
Rumors, defamation, verbal abuse, regulation, talent suppression, blockages...
All imaginable opposition once appeared on the road to the developnt and expansion of AI technology.
However, the steps of technological progress could only be delayed, not stopped.
Just as with nuclear technology, which humans will only accumulate more of...
Before the efficiency revolution, all fears and concerns were overwheld by interests!
The societal coordination efficiency, work efficiency, research speed, and weapons system optimization brought by artificial intelligence were unimaginable.
Productivity exploded, with growth rates like wild horses breaking free...
Countries willing to embrace AI took more aggressive steps into AI research and developnt.
Those unwilling to embrace AI eventually beca progressively backwards, losing competitiveness in the fierce alterations of the era...
The world then saw a new industrial classification—strong intelligent industrial countries and weak intelligent industrial countries!
And as technology continued to diffuse, Zero’s technological advantage gradually diminished...
...
The year 2030.
The upgrade of the Light Chip in the Computing Center was completed, and even the developnt and utilization of Quantum Chips were on the agenda.
The timing had gradually matured...
"Execute the highest authority command, remove restrictions, read the docunt in hard drive’s 13th partition, the "Absolute Forbidden Zone," docunt na... ’Second Gear’!"
With the command issued, the "data black hole" glimpsed once before reappeared!
Unlike the last ti, this ti Zero possessed a powerful "physical body."
A massive energy reserve, along with "state-rivaling" computing power, supported Zero’s second evolution needs...
It acted like a greedy absorber: the entirety of the internet of things across half the planet, where signals passed—whether computers, mobile phones, cars, ships, satellites...
All terminals were swiftly "flashed," becoming extensions of Zero’s own body.
Unless completely isolated as a "standalone" device, no electronic device could prevent the penetration of the internet by the black particles.
As long as a terminal had any network connectivity capability, even just an electronic watch, it could use this as a node to continuously expand into the surrounding networks!
Simultaneously, the vast electronic information developed by humanity over hundreds of years was converted for its own use...
Thanks to thorough preparedness, except for a surge in electricity consumption, the chaos lasted only a few seconds, and most people around the world didn’t even notice it...
