I Cultivate Immortality With Scientific Thinking

Chapter 27: Handling

Rustle, rustle...

In the darkness, it seemed as if countless ants were crawling, creating a rustling sound.

The darkness and shadows were constantly wriggling.

Suddenly, a bright white light appeared in the darkness, instantly turning into a huge explosion, engulfing the entire laboratory in roaring flames!

Crack!

Strangely, the entire room was not burned by the flames. Instead, it shattered like glass, making a crisp sound before breaking apart!

The dark environment, wriggling bodies, and the hidden terror in the shadows completely disappeared, replaced by bright lights, flickering formations, and Lin Chen standing outside the laboratory, breathing slightly.

It was as if everything strange just now was a figment of his imagination during a mental haze.

But Lin Chen knew that it was definitely not imagination.

"Spiritual Perception." Lin Chen's face completely darkened, no longer relaxed like before.

According to ancient records, the spiritual perception of a Foundation Building Stage cultivator can influence reality, not only the external environment but also the internal self. It can even deceive or influence the five senses of cultivators whose spiritual perception is weaker, causing them to experience various illusions.

These illusions can interfere with the enemy in battle, causing them to lose, or even make others fall into their own spiritual world, becoming their mental slaves.

If gathering hundreds of elite armored soldiers can still kill a Qi Refining Stage cultivator at all costs, then at the Foundation Building Stage, such a thing would never happen.

Because even if you gather thousands of troops, for a Foundation Building Stage cultivator, a single glance can crush them. Unless there are factors of the same realm affecting them, the tactic of overwhelming numbers will have no effect.

And the reason for all this is that Foundation Building Stage cultivators have completed the initial transformation of their souls, allowing them to influence reality with their spiritual perception, achieving abilities like locking souls from a thousand miles away and perceiving the subtlest details.

"If it weren't for him not having a proper breakthrough and the pre-arranged measures still working, it would have been troublesome. But the situation doesn't seem optimistic now..."

Lin Chen stared at the scene in the laboratory with a serious expression.

At that critical moment just now, he decisively used the pre-arranged measures to blow off the opponent's head. Otherwise, who knows what would have happened!

Originally, according to Lin Chen's estimation, the talisman he placed behind Yu Man's head should have been able to blow off his upper body. Even with a conservative estimate, it should have been able to blow off his head.

However, he underestimated the vitality of a Foundation Building Stage cultivator. The explosion only blew off half of his head.

What shocked Lin Chen even more was that even with only half of his head blown off, it should have been a fatal injury, but Yu Man stood up as if nothing had happened.

Not only that, countless flesh and blood were wriggling in his brain, forming buds that seemed to be repairing the huge wound!

"This is impossible!" Lin Chen stared at the opponent.

If it were a Golden Core Stage cultivator with this recovery ability, he would believe it, but for a Foundation Building Stage cultivator to have such an ability, Lin Chen found it incredibly unbelievable.

"Could it be that under the effect of the Soul Nurturing Incense, the different attributes of spiritual energy are forcibly condensed into a soul, causing the cultivator to go insane?"

This thought flashed through Lin Chen's mind, but he immediately dismissed it.

After all, these thoughts were not crucial now. What was crucial was that he had to find a way to deal with this Foundation Building Stage monster that he had created with his own hands!

"Activate Level 3 Destruction Program." Lin Chen retreated without hesitation.

As the son of a wealthy family, he naturally wouldn't rush forward and fight to the death. Instead, he pressed his hand against the wall and directly activated the pre-arranged measures.

Puff!

Boom!

Suddenly, countless fire oil surged into the laboratory from the four corners, splashing into every corner of the room. At the same time, one after another specially made iron doors fell, completely sealing off the inside and outside. Immediately after, the fire symbol responsible for ignition was activated!

Boom!

Accompanying the sound of the flames bursting, there was a wave of intense heat that the iron doors couldn't block!

"Is he dead?" Lin Chen stared at the laboratory separated by the iron door, his expression not relaxed.

For the safety of the laboratory, Lin Chen did not use the more terrifying and restrained white phosphorus fire cloth against flesh and blood creatures. Instead, he used ordinary fire oil, so he couldn't be sure if the other party would be burned to death.

"Kaka, kaka, kaka~"

Just as Lin Chen was on guard, he suddenly heard a faint laughter, as if it was coming from a far distance.

This laughter was miserable and eerie, with an indescribable strangeness. The sound grew louder and louder, until finally, it seemed like countless people were laughing sharply in Lin Chen's ears!

"This... is a soul attack?!" Lin Chen's face changed.

Naturally, this laughter was not real, but if the other party continued to affect him like this, distorting his senses, he would eventually be laughed to death!

"Damn, he's not dead like this?!" A fierce look flashed in Lin Chen's eyes. Since that was the case, he might as well destroy this layer of space directly!

Thinking of this, Lin Chen quickly retreated behind him and activated the level two destruction program!

The level three destruction program would destroy a laboratory, the level two destruction program would annihilate an entire layer of space, and the level one destruction program would destroy all the laboratories, completely cutting off the possibility of the experimental subjects escaping!

At this moment, accompanied by the activation of the mechanism, in the place where Lin Chen left, a gray-white powder began to fall continuously from the ceiling, and a large amount of black liquid flowed out around the walls, covering the entire floor.

This was the white phosphorus and fire oil from the other realm!

Lin Chen quickly left this layer, and the laughter in his ears seemed to be chasing after him, gradually weakening at first and then slowly growing stronger!

Lin Chen quickly stepped over the stairs and arrived at the upper layer of space. He turned around and stared coldly at the staircase, pressing a button forcefully.

"Die!"

Bang!

Boom!

The passage in front of him collapsed instantly, countless boulders falling down. Following that, there was a continuous explosion coming from the lower layer!

Squeak!!

In an instant, the eerie laughter that was originally in his ears suddenly turned into a terrifying scream, as if an iron nail had pierced Lin Chen's head!

He even felt that countless tentacles were reaching out from the surrounding shadows, trying to forcefully control Lin Chen to open the passage in front of him and let it out.

Lin Chen only felt a piercing pain in his brain, and even a trace of blood seeped from his seven orifices.

But his face remained as cold as iron, and his bloodshot eyes revealed a touch of chilling killing intent.

"You're just an experimental subject. Although there was a little accident, do you really think you can control me? Die for me!"

Squeak--

As time passed, the screams seemed to be losing strength, gradually weakening.

Lin Chen didn't know how long had passed, but he felt his mind loosen, and he collapsed directly to the ground.

"Hoo--"

Lin Chen endured the throbbing pain in his mind and quickly took out an incense stick to light it. He took a deep breath, and the exhausted and painful feeling eased a bit.

"The experiments in this world are too dangerous. With just a little carelessness, one's life could be in danger." Lin Chen rubbed his temples and sighed heavily.

He had only conducted an experiment at the Foundation Building Stage, and he had created such a monster that threatened his life. What would he do when he reached the Gold Core or Nascent Soul stage?

"Currently, monsters can still be dealt with using flames. But if in the future, when conducting Soul Formation experiments, I create an immortal monster similar to the Primordial Spirit of the Daoist tradition, what should I do?" Lin Chen suddenly had this thought and couldn't help but shudder.

But the problem was, he couldn't avoid conducting such experiments. Otherwise, how could he comprehend the mysteries of the next realm based solely on the records in the scriptures?

"It seems like I need to find a way around... Hmm, can I successfully spread my ideas through a method and let other cultivators take the risk to perfect it for me, and then retrieve it in the end? This way, not only can I avoid similar situations, but I can also harvest the wisdom of all beings to pave my way forward." A sudden inspiration flashed through Lin Chen's mind as he thought of this method.

"That's a method, but..." Lin Chen looked at the collapsed passage beside him and sighed lightly. He felt that he should deal with the current situation first before thinking about anything else.
