I Cultivate Immortality With Scientific Thinking

Chapter 24: Interrogation

"Do you know? When it comes to interrogation methods, even the bloodthirsty and cruel Demonic Beasts can't compare to humans."

"Have you heard of the stick punishment? Here, stick punishment doesn't mean hitting someone with a stick. It means inserting a stick directly into your mouth or anus, all the way in, piercing through the stomach and intestines, causing excruciating pain until death..."

"And there's also the punishment of locking someone in a barrel, with only their head exposed. They are fed daily and forced to defecate in the barrel. As time passes, their lower body will be completely filled with feces, and maggots will grow in it, slowly burrowing into their body..."

As Lin Chen listed one cruel torture after another, Yu Man remained unresponsive, only looking at him with a cold smile.

In his mind, as long as the other party resorted to such means to extract information, it meant that they cared about his intelligence. In terms of mental games, he believed he had won.

As long as he held on, the other party would definitely compromise!

As for the other party's punishments, Yu Man truly didn't believe that a disciple of the righteous path could possess any cruel methods. He thought that the other party was just bluffing and trying to intimidate him.

Seeing this, Lin Chen paused for a moment, then his smile disappeared, and he said expressionlessly, "Forget it, forget it. I'm a kind-hearted person and can't stand disgusting things. Besides, it's also troublesome to do it this way. So let's start with the fingers."

"I'll count down from ten, and each count, I'll crush one of your fingers until you talk."

As soon as he finished speaking, True Qi surged in Lin Chen's hand, sealing Yu Man's mouth and forming a spiritual hand.

He picked up Yu Man's hand, pulled out the little finger, and held it tightly with his right hand, slowly exerting force.

"Ten!" The cold countdown began.

The sound of bones breaking, which made one's teeth ache, resounded. Then, Yu Man's forehead veins bulged, and he struggled violently. Unfortunately, he was bound and couldn't escape. He could only watch helplessly as his finger was crushed into a bloody mess.

Lin Chen removed the seal from Yu Man's mouth and asked, "The information."

"You madman!" Yu Man roared, "If you kill me, you won't get anything... Mmm!"

He was interrupted by Lin Chen, who stuffed his mouth again, and sneered, "It seems I'm still too kind."

Saying that, he grabbed Yu Man's other unnamed finger and slowly crushed it.

"Nine!"

Yu Man shook his head violently, screaming in his heart, "No! No! No! No!"

But Lin Chen still pressed down, and intense pain surged through Yu Man's body. His whole body arched, tears streaming from his eyes, and muffled struggling sounds came from his blocked mouth.

"Eight!"

Lin Chen paid no attention to his struggles. He pressed down slowly again, and the third finger instantly turned into a mixture of bone fragments and minced meat. Feeling the piercing pain in his fingers, Yu Man's entire body trembled violently.

"Five!"

The spiritual energy in Lin Chen's hand suddenly grew larger, covering Yu Man's palm, and then he fiercely squeezed it.

Crack!

Accompanied by a piercing sound of shattering, Yu Man's right hand was instantly crushed into a mass of flesh and blood by Lin Chen!

Fresh blood kept flowing from the large spiritual hand, his right hand and arm veins bulged, his whole body trembled uncontrollably due to the pain, his eyes rolled back, and he almost fainted.

Lin Chen transformed the True Qi in his hand into a needle and forcefully inserted it into a certain part of Yu Man's head, making him regain consciousness.

"I'm really sorry, I made a mistake just now." Lin Chen's calm face at this moment appeared more sinister and terrifying to Yu Man than anything else. He said, "Shall we start over?"

No! No!

Yu Man struggled desperately, shaking his head continuously, his eyes filled with a pleading look.

"Wuwu!"

However, Lin Chen remained unmoved, only removing the seal from his mouth.

"No, please! I beg you, as long as you spare me, I'll tell you everything!" Yu Man pleaded.

At this moment, Yu Man was truly terrified. He had seen many cultivators, some bloodthirsty and ruthless, some fierce and domineering, but no one had ever given him the same feeling as Lin Chen just now.

It was a kind of indifference and detachment, not a result of killing too many people, but a result of cultivating an indifference towards life, treating everything the same.

It seemed that all life was the same in his hands, and whatever he wanted to do was completely within his control, without being constrained by any morality, kindness, or other external factors.

"You haven't told me the information I want." Lin Chen sighed lightly and took action again.

"No, no, no... I beg you, I beg you, spare me..." Yu Man pleaded bitterly, his voice even carrying a sob.

However, Lin Chen was completely unmoved.

The cultivators he experimented on, which one of them wasn't a demonic cultivator who killed and set fires, completely evil? If he sympathized with them, then who would sympathize with the innocent people they killed?

Lin Chen's hand reached towards Yu Man's left hand, his cold eyes and chilling aura made Yu Man shiver from the depths of his heart!

"No! No! No! I'll talk! I'll talk!"

Just as Lin Chen's hand touched his hand again, Yu Man finally broke down completely.

This kind of pain and torture was completely unbearable for an ordinary person.

He desperately revealed all the information he had obtained, fearing that if he was a step too slow, Lin Chen would torture him to death.

In the bright light of the laboratory, Lin Chen listened expressionlessly as he finished speaking, then his eyes flickered and he asked indifferently, "If you lie to me..."

"I swear on my inner demon, everything I said is true!" Yu Man quickly responded, "The ancient cultivator's records I obtained stated that the Lingnan region is not a naturally formed spiritual vein, but a spiritual land formed by the fall of an immortal!"
