I Cultivate Immortality With Scientific Thinking

Chapter 233 The difficulty of reading souls

"Sir, Lord Shangzong, what are you feeling now..."

"Shut up."

In reality, Li Dazhu stared blankly at the Xuanyin Demon Cultivator who stood there inexplicably as soon as he appeared on the stage, and couldn't help but subconsciously look at Lin Chen.

Lin Chen didn't answer him, but said coldly, which immediately made the latter shut his mouth obediently.

Back on the field, Xuanyin Demonic Cultivator just stood there blankly, his eyes empty and confused, and he said vague words.

There was no trace of fighting in the surrounding jungle, which remained as it was.

Obviously, the scene of the battle between the two parties just now was all an illusion. As soon as the other party appeared, Lin Chen pulled him into the illusion of the soul.

After that, the battle the demon cultivator experienced ended, and when he returned to his stronghold, it was all an illusion created by Lin Chen, and he continued to guide the opponent's memory through illusions.

But when reading the memory, the trouble he encountered was beyond Lin Chen's expectations.

"It's really, unexpectedly troublesome..."

Lin Chen looked at the Xuanyin demon cultivator in front of him and frowned.

Although he does not follow the weird and unpredictable path of the soul, Lin Chen can still do it by distorting the five senses through illusion and reading memories in reverse.

Even more ruthlessly, he can tamper with the other person's cognition, distort his thinking, and make the other person regard him as someone for whom he can give his life, thereby becoming a spiritual slave.

Originally, Lin Chen thought that it would be very simple to read the memory of this magic cultivator. After all, the other party was only in the Qi Refining stage, and he had already reached the half-step Gold Core.

But what he didn't expect was that the other party was just an ordinary disciple of the Xuanyin Sect, but there were dozens of restrictions in his soul!

Moreover, these restrictions are linked to each other and can even be triggered in a series. For some restrictions, Lin Chen is not sure what the conditions are for triggering them in a short period of time.

But what is certain is that once these restrictions are touched, either the memory in this area and the corresponding soul will be eliminated, or the soul will be directly destroyed!

"Holy crap, how can these high-level officials of the Xuanyin Sect pretend to be planting things in their own people's minds? Are they so afraid of their rebellion?!"

Lin Chen gritted his teeth. The demon cultivator in front of him was just Qi Refining Late Stage, but because of the many soul restrictions that could be triggered at any time, his actions were unexpectedly difficult!

This is as troublesome as a top bomb disposal expert encountering a hostage with dozens of bombs strapped to his body and hundreds of wires!

This is simply piling up arbitrary and unreasonable numbers to make Lin Chen's actions complicated and difficult to handle!

And Lin Chen guessed that these restrictions planted in the soul may not be defended by the Xuanyin Sect Demonic Cultivators from outsiders, but other elders and disciples within the same sect!

After all, any large righteous sect or the Gold Core family with a long tradition will generally not plant soul restrictions in the souls of their disciples, unless it is a particularly important matter or a technique related to the sect's fundamental inheritance.

On the one hand, it is for loyalty, on the other hand, and most importantly, it will greatly consume the disciple's own potential!

After all, the three elements of essence, energy and spirit are closely related to the cultivation of monks.

If a lot of restrictions are planted in the mind, it will greatly increase the burden on the monk's soul, which will lead to hindered cultivation, and there is even the risk of death from touching the restrictions at any time!

"In addition, in the Lingnan cultivation land, the Xuanyin Sect is the most skilled in Spirit Ascension. Therefore, these restrictions are not so much to prevent outsiders from searching for souls as to prevent members of our own sect!"

In an instant, Lin Chen figured out the reason for the restriction within the demon cultivator's soul, but now the question is, how to operate it?

It takes a lot of time to break the ban, and it may explode if you are not careful. If you don't break the ban, you are searching for souls with a lot of bombs?

What a joke!

You know, reading memories through the soul is not as simple as imagined.

Although Immortal Cultivation World has a commonly used method, soul searching, whether you can get the desired memory depends on the user's strength and luck.

After all, searching for souls requires that the soul of the user be stronger than the recipient, so as to reduce the backlash caused by this behavior.

And this is a very crude method. Whether the memory you get is what you want and whether it is incomplete or not really depends on your luck.

Usually, when demon cultivators want to obtain information, they capture a large number of people who know the information, and then through continuous torture of souls and artificial hypnosis, they obtain a lot of information, and then integrate it.

Lin Chen's method is more High Level than theirs, which is to use illusion to distort the five senses to blind the other party's perception and elicit the other party's memory bit by bit.

For example, the cemetery in the fantasy world was constructed based on the knowledge of the Xuanyin Demonic Cultivator in the subconscious mind, which prompted the body's senses to react subconsciously.

"But even so, if the other party wants to say a certain keyword, the restriction will still be triggered and the soul will be detonated."

"So I have to find a way to bypass the restriction. Even if it's only for a short moment, I can get the memory I want."

Lin Chen's eyes flickered, his mind was running crazily, and some of his past research on the soul kept coming to his mind.

"I have explored before. I am afraid that the soul of this world is not only consciousness and memory, but also... a polymer of spiritual energy!"

"The Niwan Palace opened by the monks and the Huangting they cultivated are essentially a spiritual creation used to carry consciousness!"

"That is to say, the polymer of consciousness and aura constitutes the so-called soul in this world, and the two complement each other and influence each other!"

"In this Immortal Cultivation World, at least what I know so far, most of the so-called Soul Restrictions are to plant alien spiritual energy on the spiritual energy polymer, and use the memory in consciousness as a trigger condition to protect secrets!"

So now it seems that Lin Chen probably has two paths to take.

The first is to target the aura polymer that makes up the soul and deprive it of consciousness. In this way, even if the soul is forbidden to explode, the opponent's consciousness and the memory in it will not be affected.

But the question is, how to retain consciousness in the moment between the two, or what means should be used to carry the other party's consciousness. Lin Chen has done very little research on this!

After all, most of his research is on the nature of spiritual energy!

Even if he has research in this area, he may not be able to complete the transfer, protection, and memory reading at the moment of peeling off without making any mistakes!

"So now it seems that the only option is to take the second option, which is to target the consciousness!" Thinking of this, Lin Chen's eyes slowly turned cold.

"By distorting the opponent's thinking and perception, you create a second personality, and then reversely divide the soul!"

"In this way, even if the restriction is triggered, the original soul of the body can be used to delay time, and information can be obtained from the split personality soul before it is destroyed!"

After thinking this, Lin Chen took action again without hesitation!

The next moment, Li Dazhu at the side suddenly opened his eyes wide.

Because in his eyes, Lin Chen's body had an inexplicable layer of hazy, dreamlike luster.

Then, the surrounding jungle began to slowly become unreal!

In Lin Chen's eyes, the shadow of a cemetery gradually began to appear!

It was a terrifying cemetery composed of countless piled corpse graves, cold and numb living trees, and dead heads floating in the sky.

And in the very center of the cemetery is the figure of the Xuanyin Demonic Cultivator!
