I Cultivate Immortality With Scientific Thinking

Chapter 3: A Decade in the Blink of an Eye

"In the fourth year of transmigration, on January 3rd. Although spiritual energy can transform all things, it seems to have certain requirements for attributes. Just like how fire spiritual energy cannot be transformed into clear water..."

"I have discovered that the techniques recorded in the Sutra Pavilion only convert spiritual energy into ordinary matter. For example, the Fireball Technique simply transforms spiritual energy into ordinary flames. But what if it were changed to flames burning with white phosphorus?"

"Unfortunately, I can only use the techniques corresponding to the Qi Refining Stage when I reach the mid-stage of Qi Refining. It seems that I still need to cultivate diligently..."

"But I've heard that those with strong souls have higher cultivation efficiency. Although I have lived two lives and my soul should be stronger than others, why is my cultivation speed similar to theirs? Or does the soul in this world refer to something else?"

"In the fourth year of transmigration, on June 2nd. According to the records left by predecessors, the soul in this world is probably different from what I imagined. It is not just a carrier of consciousness and memory, but also seems to be related to spiritual energy."

"According to the records, cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage possess 'spiritual power,' those in the Foundation Building Stage are born with 'spiritual perception,' and those in the Gold Core Stage condense 'divine consciousness'... What is the reason for this classification?"

"Never mind, let's not think about things that are too far away. Let's think about how to strengthen the soul... Although there are no soul cultivation techniques in the Azure Cloud Sect, through 'indirect observation,' I can roughly summarize that:

The soul is similar to the body. As long as it undergoes sufficient training and receives enough nourishment, it will become stronger."

"Based on this principle, perhaps I can try to create a cultivation technique. But it would be great if there were pills that could nourish the soul. However, they are too expensive. I have learned about the recipe for Nurturing Spirit in the mortal world. Maybe I can..."

"Damn it! I don't know why, but just thinking about it makes me angry! Why do other transmigrators have systems and grandfathers to help them, while I can only rely on myself?! If I become a True Immortal in the future, I will definitely go to the Transmigrator Association to demand justice!"

...

"In the fifth year of transmigration, on May 20th. Phew, I have finally reached the mid-stage of Qi Refining and entered the realm of True Qi. I can refine the spiritual energy of heaven and earth with my True Qi, and my self-developed Nurturing Spirit technique has also yielded results. Now I can continue my research on techniques and spells!"

"In my research on techniques, I originally wanted to use spiritual energy to transform various technologies from my previous life. But after some experiments, I found that the transformation of spiritual energy is not as easy as I thought. At least, I can't do it now..."

"Its transformation either requires a thorough understanding of the structure and properties of the material, forcibly transforming it, or using the real-world material of this world as a reference."

"In other words, if I want to create a Fireball Technique with white phosphorus, I must have a material similar to white phosphorus in this world as a reference..."

"In the fifth year of transmigration, on July 6th. Great, I finally found a material in this world similar to phosphorus, and its effect is even more powerful than in my previous life. Using it, I successfully created an improved version of the Fireball Technique!"

"This improved version of the Fireball Technique not only has much greater power than the ordinary version, but once it touches a person, it will continuously burn like an inseparable bond, making it almost impossible to extinguish!"

Indeed, as long as I find the corresponding methods and materials, I can completely reproduce some of the technologies from my previous life in this life!"

"In the fifth year of transmigration, on December 1st. Based on the reference of the pressure principle from my previous life and the derived spiritual pressure principle as a theory, I have successfully created this technique."

"The high-pressure water jet is a technology from my previous life. Water obtains tremendous kinetic energy under high pressure, and when combined with abrasive sand, it forms a water jet with terrifying cutting force."

"By transforming my True Qi into water and continuously increasing the spiritual pressure, and adding gold attribute spiritual energy as abrasive sand, I have created the terrifying Water Blade Technique. Moreover, the water transformed by spiritual energy can ignore air resistance and maintain its power when shot out."

"Although it dissipates if it exceeds the range of my spiritual power control, this also ensures that its power does not weaken with increasing distance."

"As for concealing oneself, I have created a new version of the Invisibility Technique based on the principle of light refraction in cuttlefish. In my imagination, it will be the precursor to my great Divine Ability, 'Standing Invisible.'"

"Not to mention the improved control techniques based on spider silk [Soul Thread Technique], as well as the combination with the Clear Wind Technique, using the wind to generate thrust behind oneself to increase speed, and also using the wind to hinder the pursuit of the opponent [Divine Movement Technique], and so on.

These magic tricks improved with knowledge from past lives will surely become my reliance on the path of cultivation in the future!"

"In the sixth year of transmigration, on May 16th. It's really difficult to earn spirit stones these days. With the growth of cultivation and the deepening of research experiments, the consumption of resources has also intensified..."

"Although drawing talismans can earn spirit stones, I can also try to learn alchemy, but in the end, it's still working for the sect. But any transmigrator knows that working has no future..."

"In the seventh year of transmigration, on February 9th. It turns out that all those novels are deceiving. They say that after killing Demonic Cultivators, you can plunder peerless techniques, powerful Spirit Weapons, or other treasures."

"I was quite looking forward to taking on so many sect tasks, but when I counted the gains, I'm even poorer than before!"

"But they still have some utility. It just so happens that I need experimental materials, and there are many experiments that need dissection... Wait, is this a bit wrong? I remember I was a good person, right?"

"In the eighth year of transmigration, on May 8th. Sigh, the demonic cultivators I experiment on these days are getting worse and worse. Compared to their viciousness when doing bad things, I'm just using a knife on them. Is there really a need to be so afraid?"

"...But recently I heard that two years later, the sect will hold a grand competition for outer disciples and promote outstanding disciples. Heh, maybe it's time for me to show off!"

"In the tenth year of transmigration, on October 3rd. Haha, all these years of hard work have not been in vain! With the achievements brought by scientific cultivation research, I have made it into the top three of the outer disciple competition!"

"If it weren't for that guy who seems to be the protagonist, no one would be my match!"

"I am very happy. All these years of research and effort have not been in vain.

Originally, I was just a cultivator with three spiritual roots of water, fire, and earth. My aptitude was considered good, but within the vast Azure Cloud Sect, I could only be considered mediocre compared to those with excellent spiritual roots."

"Without a Goldfinger, and without any unexpected events, in this resource-scarce Lingnan Immortal Cultivation World, at most, I can only become a Foundation Building Stage cultivator and live for two hundred years before turning into a pile of yellow soil."

"To die and be reborn, to open my eyes to the world once again, is already a stroke of luck. But to transmigrate to another world, there is hope to embark on the path of immortality, it is truly a heaven-defying opportunity!"

"But if the path to immortality is hopeless, how tragic it would be! You see, in the previous life, no matter how high I climbed, how far I stood, even standing at the pinnacle of the world, in the end, I was just a wealthy and powerful... mortal!"

"We all have to experience birth, old age, sickness, and death, natural disasters and man-made calamities, sinking in the mortal world, revolving in the cycle of reincarnation, ultimately unable to transcend!"

"But in this world, as long as you reach a high position, not only can you ride the clouds and fog, move mountains and fill seas, travel to the North Sea in the morning and the Cangwu Mountains in the evening, but you can also become a True Immortal who lives as long as the heavens and the earth, shining together with the sun and moon!"

"Although it's a pity that those bastards from the transmigrator association didn't give me a Goldfinger, but I, Lin Chen, am not someone to be trifled with! If heaven doesn't give it to me, then I'll make it myself!

I don't believe that as a transmigrator, I can't continue without a system, Immortal Weapon, or a panel-like thing!

The ancients once said: 'The sky is healthy, the gentleman should strive to become stronger!' I can also use the scientific thinking from my past life to forge my own path to immortality!"

"...Alright, I've finished daydreaming. It's time to wash up and go to sleep. Sigh, the future is quite beautiful, but the present is cruel. I still have to get up early tomorrow to earn spirit stones."

Beside the window, a pair of hands closed the book. After a moment, the bright pearl slowly extinguished.

At this moment, in the distant sky, the night was deep like the sea, and the bright moon shone for thousands of miles.
