I Cultivate Immortality With Scientific Thinking

Chapter 257: Insects in the Mountains

Qingyun Feizhou stood on Yuanzhou Mountain. Everyone looked at the soul lamp fire in Lin Chen's hand pointing downwards, and their eyes couldn't help but become a little solemn.

"Elder, are we going to continue like this?" Qingyun inner disciple bowed and asked Lin Chen.

Lin Chen sensed the Rank Two formation below, and his eyes moved: "Don't worry, after all, this is their territory, and it's not appropriate to rush in rashly. Let's land in front of the mountain first, and then send someone to pay homage to the mountain leader. This is Basic etiquette.”

Um? !

The inner disciples of Qingyun raised their heads in shock when they heard this.

Haste, etiquette?

Is this what their Azure Cloud Sect should have for the people below? !

‘Is it possible that this elder is so easy to talk to? ’ The inner disciple of Qingyun was a little confused, but he still responded.

Soon, the Qingyun flying boat landed in front of Yuanzhou Mountain, and the Qingyun inner disciple directly arranged for people to go and pay homage to the mountain.

‘Does this Bai family really not know whether to live or die? How dare you attack someone from my sect? ! ’ The Qingyun inner disciple looked inside Yuanzhou Mountain with cold eyes.

Although this was the opponent's territory, he was not too afraid.

After all, the elder of the Foundation Building of our sect is standing next to him. If there is really a problem, the elder will not go in easily... huh? !

Qingyun inner disciple's eyes suddenly widened, because when he just glanced in the direction of Lin Chen, he unexpectedly saw two intertwined figures appearing under the bright sunshine? !

What's going on, two elders?

"What's wrong?" Lin Chen in front of him seemed to be aware of it and turned around to ask.

"No, it's okay." The inner disciple of Qingyun rubbed his eyes and found that there was only one person in front of him. He thought he had an illusion for a moment and responded quickly.

‘The moment I used my clone to replace my main body, he happened to see me? ’

Lin Chen's eyes moved. The reason why he landed was to put his body into the ground and replace it with his clone.

After all, facing the unknown situation in the mountains, even if Lin Chen was extremely powerful, he would not be stupid enough to take risks himself. Instead, he planned to use one of the only three Foundation Building clones on his body to explore the situation.

'But it doesn't matter if you saw it...' Lin Chen glanced at the other party lightly and withdrew his eyes.

In front, the disciples who were sent to pay homage to the mountain soon came out with two Qi Refining Stage monks who were all dressed in white and had white letters on their chests.

"Disciples of the Bai family are here to pay homage to Lord Shangzong!" When the two monks saw Lin Chen, they saluted quickly.

"Tell your master to come out and see me!" Lin Chen said with his hands behind his back.

"The master of the family has already held a big banquet on the mountain, waiting for the Lord Shangzong to come. I hope you will follow me!" the two monks said.

"Oh?" Lin Chen glanced at the two of them with a half-smile, then waved his hand and said, "In that case, let's go up the mountain!"

"This... elder, are you afraid there is some deceit?"

When the Qingyun inner disciple on the side heard this, his face darkened, and he couldn't help but step forward, came to Lin Chen's side, and reminded him in a low voice.

"It takes too much time to attack from the outside. It would be bad if they escaped. Personally, I prefer to deal with them together and don't want to cause too much trouble." Lin Chen said lightly.

"This..." Qingyun's inner disciples couldn't help but be startled after hearing this.

Is this elder so confident in his own strength? Isn't he afraid of capsizing in the gutter?

Even though he was filled with confusion, when he saw Lin Chen striding forward, he could only grit his teeth and lead the other monks to follow.

Soon, they entered the interior of Yuanzhou Mountain.

Like most other cultivating forces here, there are spiritual fields and spiritual pools opened up everywhere in the mountainous areas where spiritual energy is abundant, and many mortals and monks are cultivating in them.

There were many older monks walking on the mountain road they were walking on.

Everything is a normal scene.

"Elder, it seems that there is no problem here." After observing for a long time, the Qingyun inner disciple said in a low voice.

"Really?" Lin Chen's expression remained unchanged and he asked, "Feel the amount of spiritual energy in the air."

Um?

Upon hearing this, the inner disciple of Qingyun immediately felt the concentration of spiritual energy in the air, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"How come the spiritual energy content of this Rank Two Lingshan is so low?!"

In his induction, the concentration of spiritual energy in the air, let alone reaching the standard of Rank Two Spiritual Mountain, is probably already close to the spiritless land!

"Elder, what's going on?!" he asked in surprise.

"Then you still need to ask? There is obviously a problem with the underground spiritual veins, and something has taken over." Lin Chen replied casually.

Then, he turned around and walked straight in the other direction.

But he didn't go far when he was stopped by a nearby monk from the Bai family.

"Lord Shangzong, the direction of the top of the mountain is this way." A monk from the Bai family stepped forward and said expressionlessly.

As he spoke, Lin Chen and others saw people walking on the nearby roads, working in the fields, and busy on their way...

All the members of the Bai family stiffened at this moment, turned their heads, and stared at Lin Chen and others with expressionless faces.

Their eyes were dull and empty, and their faces were numb and stiff. It felt like a long-dead corpse staring at everyone, giving people an indescribable feeling of fear.

"Elder!" Azure Cloud Sect and other disciples who came with Lin Chen saw their expressions change and subconsciously leaned towards Lin Chen.

"Sir, the top of the mountain is on this side..." At this moment, everyone spoke in unison, and the overlapping voices echoed in the mountains, with an indescribable permeability.

"Elder, we should now..." The Qingyun inner disciple was about to turn his head and look at Lin Chen and ask what to do next.

But he felt a ball of flame flash directly from his face.

Lin Chen didn't talk so much nonsense, but just got started!

boom!

The terrifying flames fell into the crowd and exploded instantly, like gangrene on the bones, spreading along the blood stream. One place after another, countless human-shaped pillars of fire instantly rose in the field!

But what everyone didn't expect was that the burned Bai family didn't let out any screams. Instead, countless dense insects flew out from the body!

"This!" Many monks saw this scene in front of them and understood instantly, and their faces became particularly ugly.

Obviously, these people from the Bai family have become hosts among these alien insects!

The next moment, the dense and overwhelming insects rushed directly towards them!

In an instant, fireballs, wind blades, thunder and lightning... countless attacks rose from the hands of Qingyun disciples, directly blocking the attacks of the insects.

And Lin Chen used a special fireball technique to clear the way directly in front. Finally, they came directly to a hole leading to the ground!

"Elder, where are we going?" The Qingyun inner sect disciple who was struggling to resist the attack couldn't help but ask while controlling the Spirit Weapon in his hand.

"The birth of these zerg insects cannot escape the word spiritual energy after all." Lin Chen looked at the cave entrance in front of him with a faint look, "Therefore, in order to reproduce in large numbers, the location of these zerg mother worms is 80% located in the underground spiritual veins!"

With the help of the secret spiritual search along the way, he has successfully determined the location of the hole into the underground spiritual veins!

"You block the pursuit of these parasitized hosts, and I'll go down and kill the insect mother!" After saying that, Lin Chen flew directly into the cave entrance.

"...Huh?!" Before the other monks could respond, Lin Chen disappeared.

By the time they reacted, people from the Bai family from other places on the mountain were already gathering here.

The insects scattered in the mountain and in the traps on the top of the mountain returned here one after another.

But even if they turned back, they were blocked by the Azure Cloud Sect disciples and unable to join the insect mother underground!

Lin Chen pretended to follow them into a trap, but in fact he lured them into splitting up his forces, found out the situation, and turned over the table in advance!

At this moment, he was walking in the dark tunnel, looking at the swarm of insects that were sparse but beginning to become denser in front of him, his eyes couldn't help but brighten:

"I didn't expect that it turned out to be a rare spiritual insect in the world - the earthworm!"
