I Cultivate Immortality With Scientific Thinking
Chapter 37 Succeed And Accident
Chapter 37: Success and Unexpected Events
"What...?!" The young man froze, feeling a sense of absurdity rising in his heart.
In order to escape being followed, they had meticulously planned three layers of calculations.
The carriage was the first layer, attracting those cultivators who weren't very smart and confusing the enemy.
Uncle walked out of the courtyard alone, the second layer, luring those cunning old foxes.
Despite the two previous calculations, they still didn't let their guard down. To be safe, the young man didn't even leave the courtyard. Instead, he directly used a precious and exceptionally modified earth escape talisman to escape underground.
Even though this third layer of calculation wasn't flawless, it was enough to deceive Qi Refining Stage cultivators. But how did they still manage to be tracked?!
"Could it be a Foundation Building Stage cultivator with the ability to track from a thousand miles away? No, that's impossible. If it were a Foundation Building Stage cultivator, they wouldn't need to track, they could just break into the courtyard and forcefully take what they want... In that case, who exactly has this ability?!" Countless thoughts flashed through the young cultivator's mind in an instant, but his actions were not slow.
With a tap of his toes, his entire body spun 180 degrees, turning to face behind him.
At the same time, his hand slid into his storage bag, instantly activating the golden light talisman, water shield talisman, and wind shield talisman. He also held a defensive spirit weapon in front of him.
In the blink of an eye, the young cultivator had protected himself from head to toe.
However, to his surprise, there was no one in front of him!
"No... no one? No, that's not right!" The young cultivator seemed to have figured something out, and his expression changed instantly.
It was a trap!
He was in the light, while the other party was in the dark. If they wanted to ambush him, they would have already made their move.
But he had been cautious the whole time, using a defensive spirit weapon to protect himself, making it impossible for the other party to find an opportunity to strike. So the other party created an opportunity using sound.
The other party used illusion sound technique to create a sound, causing him to misjudge the other party's position and turn around, exposing his back. In doing so, the other party could...
Just as the young cultivator was about to understand everything, it was too late.
A dazzling blue light appeared behind him in an instant, and then, with a whistling sound, it broke through several layers of spiritual shields, cutting him in half at the waist!
The attack was so swift and fierce that the young cultivator didn't even have time to react!
"No!" The young cultivator let out a desperate cry, wanting to fight back, but his upper body slowly slid down from the wound, falling to the ground along with blood.
"No, no, no! Even if I die, I will take you down with me!" He struggled, trying to reach into his chest to take out something, but his body suddenly froze and slumped down weakly.
Because at some point, a giant hand transformed from True Qi appeared out of thin air and crushed his head directly!
Then, a white bottle was thrown out from the darkness, shattering above it, and a strange liquid poured down, corroding the body into a pile of bubbling corpse fluid!
This whole process was seamless. The young cultivator not only didn't have time to resist, but he didn't even catch a glimpse of the enemy before he turned into an unknown liquid!
The evening breeze blew gently, and the entire scene was empty, with no one left. What had also disappeared was the storage bag that the young cultivator treasured so much.
Not long after, on an empty space outside the market, Lin Chen's figure quietly appeared.
The battle just now was an ambush designed by Lin Chen.
To be honest, their third layer of tactics was indeed formidable, but Lin Chen had long been prepared. How could they easily deceive him?
The spiritual insects he had obtained at great cost, which had a keen sense for jade essence, had already informed him that neither the carriage they left in nor the people who walked out of the courtyard had the Hundred-Year Jade Essence on them.
The disappearance of the jade essence's aura instantly made him guess that the other party had most likely escaped underground, so he immediately used a method to track them.
As for the other party's earth escape talisman concealing the fluctuation of spiritual energy, it was simply a joke to Lin Chen.
In order to observe spiritual energy and study souls, he had improved countless observation methods. How could those rune masters with just a little skill on the market hide from him?
That's why the other party couldn't shake off Lin Chen's pursuit from beginning to end.
Once he was far away from the bustling market, he carefully chose the right moment and set up an ambush, successfully obtaining the hundred-year-old jade.
Throughout the entire process, he didn't even show his face, instead putting his opponent in a deadly situation from the shadows.
In the darkness, Lin Chen quickly opened the storage bag he had taken and stepped back a few meters, releasing a puppet to inspect the contents.
Finally, with the help of the spirit insect, Lin Chen found what he was looking for - the hundred-year-old jade.
Upon seeing this item, Lin Chen immediately controlled the puppet to store it away. He hadn't had a chance to look at the other items yet, but they seemed quite abundant, with many of them marked with the character "Chen."
"It seems to be the wealth of a family, no wonder it's so rich," this thought flashed through Lin Chen's mind.
However, he didn't have any extra thoughts. After all, in this dog-eat-dog world, it would be ridiculous to discuss whether actions were just or not.
Even if he really harmed innocent people and felt guilty, he could compensate by reaching the pinnacle of the Great Principle in the future, reversing the river of time, and granting him the opportunity to become an immortal for a lifetime.
How could he, at this moment, hesitate and be afraid to move forward due to a moment of soft-heartedness?
"Now immediately return to the sect, break through in cultivation, and avoid unnecessary trouble!" After obtaining the items, Lin Chen immediately made up his mind.
Although he was quite tempted by the Spirit Blood Foundation Building technique, which might provide him with more research directions, he knew what to take and what not to take.
Unfortunately, the more one hoped to avoid something, the more likely it was to happen.
"Hmm?!" Just as he was about to leave, his figure suddenly froze, as if sensing something, and he quickly turned around.
In the nearby jungle, a violent fight suddenly broke out, followed by a huge fireball rising slowly and then exploding, its brightness and sound like a dazzling firework in the dark night.
"Trouble!" Lin Chen's face darkened.
He was heading towards Azure Cloud Sect, but unexpectedly ran into the other side.
Moreover, judging from the power of that attack just now, it was obviously at the Foundation Building stage, but there was no corresponding spiritual pressure. Obviously, someone had used the methods left behind by a Foundation Building stage cultivator.
From this, it could be seen that the battle over there was intense!
Of course, what was even more troublesome was that the power and noise of that attack were too great, and it would definitely attract many nearby cultivators.
By then, if someone had some special means and sensed that he had the hundred-year-old jade, it would certainly cause many unknown variables!
Without hesitation, Lin Chen immediately moved away from the battlefield not far away. However, before he could go far, he was forced to stop.
Because in front of him, several cultivators directly blocked his way!
"I wonder where Fellow Daoist is in such a hurry?" Among the crowd, a familiar gray-robed cultivator looked at Lin Chen with a sinister and greedy gaze. Beside him was a yellow and white-furred spirit rat with alert eyes.
It was the gray-robed cultivator who had competed with him for the Bone Marrow Cleansing technique at the underground auction, and on his shoulder was the treasure-hunting rat with a keen sense of spiritual objects.
Lin Chen's face darkened. With the existence of this rat, the other party had obviously already sensed the hundred-year-old jade on him and had become covetous.
Not to mention that they had already formed a grudge at the auction!
"You're asking for it!" A killing intent rose in Lin Chen's heart.
Originally, he wanted to let him go, but since the other party was so eager to die, Lin Chen didn't mind sending him on his way!
"I finally caught this guy!" Just as Lin Chen was about to make a move, several people in front of him suddenly showed a hint of joy.
Huh?
Lin Chen was slightly stunned, and then seemed to realize something.
He glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw a spiritual light appearing not far behind him, heading straight towards him. Behind it were several pursuers who were relentless.
"With so much effort, the other party's target shouldn't be me, but the cultivator who bought the Foundation Building technique. Unfortunately, he came this way. Damn it, this complicates things... Wait, maybe this is an opportunity!"
Lin Chen's gaze sharpened, and then he moved towards the cultivator with the treasure-hunting rat, killing him directly!
