I Cultivate Immortality With Scientific Thinking
Chapter 46 Counting The Harvest
Chapter 46: Counting the Harvest
In an unknown mountain range within the Azure Cloud Sect, it is the location of Lin Chen's cultivation experiment site.
In a corner of the laboratory, Lin Chen is sitting on a wooden chair with his eyes slightly closed.
Whether it was the incident involving Luo Ziyi and Meng Bu that alerted the high-level members of the Azure Cloud Sect, or the fact that the clone of the Qingyang Perfected Being secretly returned to the sect to plan for the future, Lin Chen was unaware of all these things.
After all, these matters were not related to him at the moment.
Currently, he is retracing the battle from last night.
"I didn't get injured during the entire battle, nor did I leave anything behind," Lin Chen opened his eyes and murmured, "Even if the other party wants to track me, without sufficient means, it won't be easy to lock onto my identity."
"Even if my identity is exposed, as long as I don't touch the Foundation Building secret technique, with my current status as an outstanding disciple of the outer sect, my life won't be in danger. After all, we are ultimately on the same side..."
Unlike Zhang Hao, who joined halfway, Lin Chen has been in the Azure Cloud Sect for a full ten years and has almost severed ties with the Lin family. He can be considered a true member of the sect.
"But entrusting my life to someone else is ultimately not a good thing..."
"In the next few days, I should adjust my state and seize the time to break through. The status and position of an inner sect disciple who has the potential to impact the Foundation Building Stage are completely different from that of an outstanding outer sect disciple. If I can become a true disciple, it will be equivalent to the high-level members of the sect. By then, this matter will naturally not have any impact on me."
After clarifying everything, Lin Chen collected his thoughts and took out the more than twenty storage bags he had obtained.
"What a great harvest..." Even with Lin Chen's usually calm mindset, a hint of joy couldn't help but surface.
Usually, it takes capturing several cultivators to obtain one storage bag, but today, he obtained more than twenty at once.
Not to mention that the original owners of these storage bags are either Independent Cultivators or relatively wealthy cultivators from various families. It is likely that the wealth they possess inside is even more abundant.
After a careful inspection, Lin Chen grabbed each storage bag one by one and input a strand of True Qi into them. Before long, a pile of things poured out of the bags, filling the table.
There are more than five thousand spirit stones alone, with over three hundred pieces of Qingyun Spirit Leaves worth a hundred spirit stones each, totaling nearly forty thousand spirit stones.
The value of just the spirit stones alone is enough to buy several Foundation Building Pills!
Next are various types of Spirit Weapons, such as spirit swords, large knives, bracelets, and so on. There are dozens of them, and their preliminary estimated value should be over ten thousand spirit stones.
"This... is a spirit needle made from the tail of a Jade Scorpion, possessing the attributes of breaking formations and strong poison?" Lin Chen observed the spirit needle in his hand with great interest.
"The attribute of breaking the law... worth researching," Lin Chen thought for a moment and set it aside.
Next to it were two Spirit Weapons that could be used for self-defense.
This kind of Spirit Weapon that can autonomously activate defense mechanisms when in danger has been part of Lin Chen's research project. Unfortunately, there hasn't been much progress. Having a few more experimental pieces would be helpful.
Then there were various elixirs: Revitalizing Pill, Detoxifying Pill, Huangya Pill, and even Pulse-Protecting Pill and Hundred Herbs Revitalizing Pill, which are considered precious elixirs in Qi Refining.
"This is the [Wood Element Revitalizing Pill]?!" Lin Chen picked up a specially made porcelain bottle, his eyes showing a hint of surprise.
This pill is a famous healing Holy Medicine in the Foundation Building Stage. Due to its mild medicinal effects and special refining methods, even cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage can take it.
It can be said to be a very precious life-saving item. Lin Chen didn't expect to obtain it here.
"Indeed, one can't become rich without unexpected gains, and a horse can't get fat without night grass," Lin Chen couldn't help but praise.
"And there's more than just elixirs," Lin Chen's tone carried a hint of anticipation.
The most precious things in most cultivators' storage bags are nothing more than spiritual stones or their equivalents, Spirit Weapons, elixirs, and finally, the cultivation techniques and secret arts they practice!
And this is what Lin Chen is most looking forward to because, in his opinion, these are the most valuable things as they represent the knowledge and wisdom of past cultivators, and in this world, nothing is more precious than these two.
"Changchun Art, Five Elements Spirit Art, Primordial Origin Art... What rubbish?!" However, after counting half of them, Lin Chen was annoyed and cursed.
Can't these cultivators improve their cultivation techniques and secret arts? Why are they all these common and marketable things?
"Hmm? Blood Sacrifice Luck-Seizing Technique?" Lin Chen picked up a jade slip and read it, but suddenly paused.
The name is very straightforward, clearly stating its function.
"Luck..." Lin Chen suddenly became interested.
According to the information he knows, luck is elusive, and in the Immortal Cultivation World, only the mysterious diviners can influence it.
"So, this should be a unique divination technique? But to sacrifice luck by blood and seize one's fortune... Wow, are they not afraid of the Great Meteor Technique?" After carefully reviewing it, Lin Chen's mouth twitched.
He didn't expect the creator of this technique to be so crazy, daring to act against those with great luck. Did they not want to die fast enough?
"But it still has some use. I can extract the method of identifying those with great luck from it and create a simple divination technique for predicting luck."
Lin Chen pondered for a moment and then set it aside.
"Huh? Blood Spirit Curse Gu?" As Lin Chen's jade slips became fewer and fewer, he discovered something of value.
"This is... the Blood Gu technique? By using this technique, one can refine their own blood into Blood Gu, parasitize others, and continuously drain their life force, causing weakness and even death..."
After reading it, Lin Chen raised an eyebrow.
Why does this sound somewhat similar to the parasites in my past life?
"But the essence of Gu seems to be a kind of worm..." Lin Chen pondered for a moment and put the jade slip aside. "It's worth considering, and the methods related to blood inside might be incorporated into the Body Refining technique I created, the Marrow Cleansing Scripture..."
"This is... the Curse Law, or rather, a fragment of it?"
The third thing that caught Lin Chen's interest was not a cultivation technique, but a fragment of the Curse Law.
"In this world, life evolves from spiritual energy, and the human body moves with qi. Therefore, one can remotely influence others using the residual qi left in their bodies, causing diseases, death, and so on. This is what is called a curse?"
After thinking for a moment, Lin Chen put it aside.
Then, Lin Chen continued to browse through the items. However, not long after, as he flipped through the cultivation techniques, his movements suddenly stopped, and a gloomy expression appeared on his face.
"Hmm?!"
Because the cultivation technique he held in his hand was called the "Blood Refining Spirit Returning Grand Technique," a demonic technique that refines all things in the world into Blood Spirit Seeds for cultivation.
This demonic technique alone was not enough to surprise Lin Chen, but the problem was that he had seen this technique more than once!
"It seems that someone deliberately spread this technique throughout the vast territory of the Azure Cloud Sect, aiming to challenge the sect's dominance!" Lin Chen's face completely darkened.
This technique emphasized slaughter and twisted one's mentality. The blood cultivators created from it were enough to disrupt the peace and order of an entire region.
Coupled with its widespread dissemination within the Azure Cloud Sect's territory, Lin Chen had a faint feeling that a storm was approaching.
"Indeed..." Lin Chen couldn't help but grit his teeth.
The continuously rising price of life-saving talismans in the Moving Cloud Market, the spreading of demonic cultivation techniques that involved killing and blood refinement, and the constant appearance of people like Zhang Hao, who seemed to have luck on their side, made Lin Chen certain that there would be a drastic change that would affect the entire Lingnan region in the future.
In this upheaval, it seemed that no one would be able to escape unscathed.
"I must quickly improve my strength to adapt to the unexpected!" Lin Chen made a resolute decision in his heart.
He then collected his thoughts, looked around, and quickly dealt with the matters at hand.
As time passed, Lin Chen soon sorted out the valuable cultivation techniques and secret arts.
Although many of the techniques had different names and were not sold on the market, in Lin Chen's eyes, they were all just the same old tricks, lacking any new ideas and unable to bring new insights to his research.
"So, I'll just sell them." Lin Chen said in a casual tone.
Lin Chen continued to count his gains and unexpectedly obtained two techniques related to the Foundation Building Stage.
One was a bead that looked old and worn, probably a hidden technique obtained by an explorer of ancient ruins.
The other was a small sword obtained from the storage bag of the Chen family cultivator who bought the hundred-year-old jade marrow. It was probably made by their ancestor.
Upon investigating, Lin Chen discovered that its power was extremely strong, and the person who made this small sword was likely a formidable cultivator in the Foundation Building Stage.
After tidying up everything in front of him, Lin Chen solemnly took out five items, the most valuable gains from this operation.
First was the Void Refining Talisman, which allowed one to travel a thousand miles in an instant.
"I've always complained about my bad luck, but who would have thought that I would obtain something so precious? But it seems I can only use it when I reach the Gold Core stage." Lin Chen couldn't help but feel speechless, but he still kept it.
Next were three cultivation techniques: the Blood Source Marrow Refining Scripture, the Five Elements Primordial Origin Law, and the Great Yan Spirit Dream Technique.
"The Blood Source Marrow Refining Scripture can help me perfect the Body Refining technique, the Marrow Cleansing Scripture. As for these two Gold Core techniques..."
Lin Chen hesitated.
The cultivation techniques in the Immortal Cultivation World emphasized profound meanings. If even one word was misinterpreted, the consequences could be completely different.
Not to mention these two Gold Core techniques, one involved ethereal dreams, and the other involved spiritual roots. Lin Chen didn't dare to casually cultivate them.
So...
"I should find some people to test them out." Lin Chen thought for a moment and made a decision.
Finally, Lin Chen opened the jade box, inside of which was his initial and most important goal of this operation - the hundred-year-old jade marrow!
Seeing this item, excitement appeared on Lin Chen's face.
"With this, my True Qi vaporization experiment finally has a guarantee. It's time to start breaking through."
