I Cultivate Immortality With Scientific Thinking

"Destroy those damn zombies and return our spiritual stones!"

"Damn Zombie, it shouldn't appear in the world!"

"To cut off someone's money is like killing one's parents. To take away one's wife is to kill them regardless of the cost."

Countless sounds, large or small, distant or near, echoed in Lin Chen's ears, and finally seemed to reach a certain critical point. All the sounds completely penetrated his mind at this moment, pulling him from as if he had fallen into Awakened from the dream of the abyss.

Soon, the bizarre dream full of whispers quickly fell into pieces. Lin Chen, who was sleeping soundly, felt an abnormal throbbing pain in his head, as if he had been hit hard with a stick.

No, it was more like someone was hitting his head with a hammer again and again!

Of course, for him who had devoted himself to making elixirs, this was not an intolerable thing.

But the strange thing is that his consciousness and perception seem to be separated from the outside world by a layer of glass, unable to touch, and even his body is somewhat difficult to control.

I don't know how long it took for the pain to slowly lessen, and sounds, touches, tastes...all the sensations other than pain gradually came up.

After he regained consciousness, he slowly opened his eyes and looked around to see a patch of sunlight. There were also countless noisy sounds coming from his ears, which were too noisy to hear clearly.

‘Where is…? ’

After stepping into the boundless darkness, Lin Chen completely lost consciousness. When he woke up again, he was already here.

The throbbing pain caused Lin Chen to accumulate illusory strength bit by bit. Finally, he straightened his back and opened his eyes, completely getting rid of the half-asleep and half-awake state.

His vision was blurry at first, and everything in front of him seemed to be covered with a hazy halo, and then it became clear little by little. Looking around, it seemed to be a house. He was lying on the cold floor, surrounded by a mess, which seemed to be traces of being looted. .

This place seems a bit familiar...is it the house that the monks explored before?

However, looking at this scene, it is not so shabby. On the contrary, it is extremely new. According to the traces on the ground, it seems that it has not been away from people for a long time.

There was a lot of noise outside the house, but Lin Chen didn't pay attention to it, but looked around.

"The house is very new, and the traces are very obvious, as if it had just been left. Moreover, the sunlight outside the window, the brand-new walls... the time does not match."

Lin Chen quickly realized this. The place it was originally located in looked like a long-abandoned, completely dilapidated house, with even traces of battles, like a ruins, but here, it looked more like it had not been abandoned before.

And the date…

Lin Chen found the object used to record dates in this house, and when he saw the time represented on it, his pupils suddenly shrank.

Because the date marked on it was exactly three months ago when the Immortal Alliance fleet had not arrived here and Martial Arts Island had lost all contact with the outside world!

The Ancient Moon Fairy used the ancient and modern bright moons to recall the scene here. As a result, an unknown change occurred and she fell into a place like a devil's cave.

He pursued the truth and fell into it. As a result, he lost consciousness. When he woke up, he found that he was back... three months ago? !

"This is impossible!"

Lin Chen grabbed the calendar in front of him and broke it into pieces, with a rare look of disbelief on his face.

To travel across time and space and go back to the past is simply unbelievable.

Not to mention how to solve the grandmother's paradox, just the historical differences caused by turning back time, and the possible birth of parallel time and space or multiverse... This is simply not something that living beings can do at this time, not even Tianzun. !

The opponent's ability to summon virtual time and space in different time periods is already the limit. For such a powerful force that spans the long river of time and relies on cause and effect, let alone Tianzun, I am afraid that even Hedao may not be qualified. It must be the legendary supreme Da Luo!

"It's absolutely impossible to go back in time and travel back in time..."

Lin Chen quickly confirmed this.

If he really has this power, the other party can directly cross the long river of time, until the future when the Heaven-shaking Universe Formation is destroyed, to obtain the secret of Hedao Daluo, or go back to the scene to get a glimpse of the secrets of the ancient times... so what? Trapped in this world? !

"And if it is really time and space travel, three months ago, I also had a dream world, and I should be able to communicate with each other. Unlike now, there is only a vague connection, and I should be trapped. In a special area...a reflection of time, or a dream of memory? "

Lin Chen pondered for a moment, then chose to walk directly outside, intending to find out more about the current situation.

And when he opened the door and looked outside, he saw...

people!

Dense, endless, and surging like a sea, the crowds occupy every corner of the streets and alleys!

They were dressed in light blue cloth and exuded the fragrance of medicine. Some were haggard and pale, as if they had never seen the sun. Some had veins on their arms and dark red faces. They were obviously deeply affected by fire poison... …

Herbalist apprentices, mining monks, weapon refiners... monks who are at the middle and lower levels of the world of immortality and master different kinds of immortality skills all gather in this crowd!

The monks who were supposed to be located everywhere on the spiritual island for producing elixirs, collecting spiritual minerals, and refining spiritual weapons... all put down their work and gathered together in groups, with fierce faces on their faces. The ground surged in one place.

And the slogans they shouted and the noise were also heard by Lin Chen:

"Destroy those damn zombies and return our spiritual stones!"

"Damn Zombie, it shouldn't appear in the world!"

"Depriving someone of their money is like killing your parents. The hatred of taking away your wife is like fighting with them regardless of the cost!"

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Kill them, these are all ours! If you don't give us a way to live, then let's die together!"

In the huge parade, everyone looked ferocious, with veins on their arms bulging out, as if they had lost their minds, attacking the monks who maintained order on the island, and massacred the zombies in major shops, alchemy workshops, weapon refining rooms, etc. , and even took the opportunity to loot, looking vaguely out of control.

The monks who maintained order and enforced law on Martial Arts Island retreated even more when faced with such a crazy and faintly out-of-control crowd. It was obvious that a complete riot was imminent and could not even be stopped.

"Is this...a change caused by the technological revolution?!"

Lin Chen, who was crowded among the crowd, saw the scene of the parade and riot, and instantly understood what was going on.

This is the transformation of the East China Sea caused by the method of Zombies!

As the instigator, he naturally knows what consequences the Zombie Method will have if it spreads.

There will definitely be a large number of ambitious monks who will spend all their wealth and sign a life-and-death contract in exchange for the resources and support of the Immortal Alliance to have a game of destiny.

But even if they risk everything, the success rate is very low. Only a few people can seize the chance of fate, advance to a high level, and win two hundred or even eight hundred years of immortality, while most people will He died miserably and eventually turned into a zombie with some intelligence.

Originally, this was nothing. After all, there were many monks dying every day in the entire world of immortality, and various ways of death were not bad. The death method of turning into a spirit figurine was nothing special in itself.

But the method of making zombies that he developed can retain part of the living person's intelligence after death. In addition, it can be activated for a long time as long as the spiritual stone is placed on it, and its relatively low cost, it can quickly It attracted the attention of the top management of Wandao in the East China Sea.

Not to mention that the zombies do not need to consider the issue of loyalty, and the spiritual stones they consume are half of the original monks. Many high-level monks laid off the lower-level monks without much hesitation, and let the zombies take over their jobs. .

Logically speaking, it would take a very long time for technological upgrading to trigger changes, measured in years. However, the large amount of war debts in the East China Sea Immortal Alliance has formed a situation where the big fish eats the small fish, and the small fish eats the shrimp every day. Both sides are harvesting like crazy. With the help of many interested people, the influence of the Zombie Method quickly spread to the middle and lower classes of the island at an unprecedented speed, causing countless monks to lose their handymen.

The monks who lost their handymen lost their source of spiritual stones in an instant. Even though the Qi-refining monks could feed their bodies with mortal grains, their realm or the maintenance of their body's mana had to be supplemented by external spiritual energy.

If there is not enough spiritual energy, it will be a trivial matter for the cultivation level to decline. I am afraid that because there is not enough spiritual energy nourishing the body, it will lead to the hidden injuries and illnesses accumulated due to various chores, and even the lifespan extended by the spiritual energy will have problems. , I'm afraid he will die on the spot!

There are no external spiritual stones in the account, and the internal wealth is being depleted little by little. The body is getting weaker day by day, and various hidden injuries and illnesses accumulated due to labor have broken out. The body is aging, plus it has been squeezed and harvested for a long time. The accumulated contradictions...

It's only a matter of time before it breaks out!

"Originally, I planned to use the method of zombies to lay mines for the Immortal Alliance, and then use the Immortal Cultivation World's version of the financial scam to harvest the entire East China Sea. It was wrong. This would lead to the collapse of the major Immortal Cultivation Worlds in the East China Sea, divert the attention of the Immortal Alliance, and help me promote myself outside the territory. Shen Cheng Tianzun bought enough time, but he didn’t expect that the speed of the explosion would be much faster than imagined..."

Lin Chen looked around the scene and couldn't help but think to himself.

Once this incident breaks out, the order of the major immortal cultivation circles in the East China Sea will completely collapse. The Immortal Alliance will be unable to take care of overseas due to suppressing the internal strife, let alone the group of extremely daring demons from all directions who are playing tricks under the eyes of the Immortal Alliance. The forces will definitely take this opportunity to make a surprise attack on Penglai Island. By then, the situation in the entire East China Sea will be in chaos, and the eyes of all the forces will be focused here... This is his final chance to be steadily promoted.

As for whether the Immortal Alliance would suppress all rebellions and trace them back to him, the mastermind behind the scenes, Lin Chen was not worried. After all, once chaos breaks out, it is not easy to suppress it.

Not to mention that based on his understanding of those high-level monks, they are all a group of people who speak with their fists. Once they encounter a riot caused by such low-level monks, they will definitely use more violent methods to fight back, such as...

As soon as his thoughts fell, Lin Chen seemed to feel something and raised his head suddenly.

I saw a strong wind rising from the ground, and the thin spiritual energy in the air was pulled out from hundreds of miles around, turning into a cloud of mist that enveloped the city, and finally formed a giant human face.

"You untouchables, if you don't retreat quickly, are you seeking death?!"

The deafening sound reverberated throughout the world, shaking the originally aggressive and even vaguely out-of-control crowd to a halt, but they quickly reacted, gritting their teeth and showing a ferocious expression.

No matter how stupid they are, they know that if they retreat this time, let alone whether they will be liquidated afterwards, even if they are fine, they will be waiting to die slowly if they go back.

Sooner or later, the spirit figurines will replace all their work and cut off the source of spirit stones. If they don't fight now, they will die!

"You can want us to go back, but you have to cancel the spirit figurines replacing our labor!"

"Yes, we need spirit stones, we want to survive!"

"If you don't give us an explanation, we won't leave today!"

The appearance of the human face did not stop these low-level cultivators, but seemed to have aroused some kind of contradiction. The crowd was surging, and the shouts were even more loud.

If it was in the mortal dynasty, when encountering such a riot, there would definitely be senior officials who would come forward to stabilize the emotions of the crowd through public credibility, and then divide and conquer in the name of solving the problem. The powerful ones would directly eliminate the problem from the root, which might be able to resolve the current contradiction... But unfortunately, this is the world of immortal cultivation.

"Don't know whether to live or die!"

The huge human face above the city was immediately angry at this moment.

As the master of this island, the martial arts Yang God who has been in the world for hundreds of years and is comparable to the Jindan Zhenren, how noble his status is compared to these lowly people.

He was condescending to come and talk to these lowly people. What a gift. But these guys were not grateful and made more trouble. Did they really treat him like dirt? !

"Since you want to die, I will grant your wish!"

At this moment, the sky above the entire city seemed to be burning with anger. A red light quickly spread and turned into an endless fire cloud.

Groups of golden fireballs emerged from it, falling on the ground like a meteor shower, and smashing down thousands of monks below.

The monks below did not expect the other party to be so cruel. Faced with such a strange phenomenon, most people did not think of dodging, and were directly smashed...

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Violent explosions came one after another, and the whole city instantly turned into a sea of ​​fire!

"No! No! Save me! Save me!"

"Run! You little brats, run!"

"Mom! Mom..."

Shouts, wails, and cries suddenly filled the entire city. Most of the lower-level cultivators did not expect that the higher-ups would be so cruel that they would fight directly in the city.

A large number of cultivators did not even care about resistance at this moment, and desperately fled outwards, just to save their lives, but the raging sea of ​​fire raged, as if it had intelligence, devouring all life.

"Trouble..."

Lin Chen frowned when he saw this.

Originally, he wanted to stop the other party before he made a move, but for some reason, at the moment when he used his mana, an inexplicable sense of crisis that seemed to kill him surged into his heart, causing him to stop his actions.

"Is the plot here unchangeable, or have I touched some taboo?"

Lin Chen was not so saintly that he had to save the people in this city, but now the sea of ​​fire was raging, and under unknown circumstances, he had to find a place to avoid and observe the follow-up situation.

"But what is certain is that I am definitely not going back to the past. After all, it seems that I can stop this disaster as long as I pay enough, which is completely inconsistent with the established reality I will face three months later..."

Lin Chen's body exuded a faint spiritual light, and the raging flames instantly shrank back the moment they touched him, as if they were afraid of something.

And soon, Lin Chen found a place to stay, which was the cellar used for storage in the restaurant.

But just as he stepped into it, a thick fog came over him, and in the unclear vision, there was an endless murderous intent everywhere!

"Die!"

A voice suddenly sounded from Lin Chen, followed by a whistling sound of breaking wind, and a cold light tore through the fog and came straight to Lin Chen's back.

The latter did not turn around, but raised the condensed golden knife in his hand calmly and gently blocked it forward.

Dang!

The sound of metal clashing sounded in the air, but the cold light that originally attacked from the back appeared in front of Lin Chen at some point.

Obviously, the sound, color, and shape that just came from behind were all means to mislead the enemy, making them mistakenly think that the attack was behind them, and when they turned around, the fatal attack would come from the front, and they would beheaded with one knife!

"I just came here to take refuge, and I have no ill intentions... Hmm? It's you?!"

Lin Chen, who blocked the attack, was about to say something, but his expression suddenly condensed.

Because in front of him, the one who attacked him was the Yuanying Zhenjun of the Tianhe Sect of Xie Meng - Wu Zhongjun.

The other party also came here.

"Do you know me?" Wu Zhongjun frowned, but still retracted the knife in his hand. The surrounding fog dissipated at this moment, "It seems that you are not a person in this illusion, but a cultivator from the East China Sea. Well, you go in first."

He doesn't know me?

Lin Chen noticed this instantly.

They had met on the floating spiritual island in the past, and had conflicts. Logically, the other party should not be unable to remember his face.

He stretched out his hand and a water mirror suddenly appeared in front of him. After shaking it in front of him, Lin Chen frowned deeply after seeing the face in the mirror.

Because the face in the water mirror was not his disguised face, but his face when he was in Lingnan!

This face was the original appearance recognized by his true spirit memory and soul. Logically, after he transformed and disguised it, it should not appear here...

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go in!"

When Wu Zhongjun saw Lin Chen standing there looking at the water mirror, his face darkened and he said coldly:

"What? Do you think that what I said is useless here?!"

"You misunderstood, I just lost my mind for a moment." Lin Chen dispersed the water mirror and said, "But this place, I don't know where it is. We clearly entered the island to fight, why did we come here?"

"And judging from the situation just now, this place seems to be the martial arts spirit island three months ago. Could it be that we really traveled through time and space and returned to the past?"

"Humph!" When mentioning this, Wu Zhongjun's face instantly became extremely gloomy, and he said, "What do you mean by going back to the past? Can you believe such a ridiculous thing? We are clearly trapped in the illusion in our minds by those evil cultivators!"
