I Cultivate Immortality With Scientific Thinking

Chapter 82: Falling into Madness

Gurgle gurgle!

Lin Tianhang, who was thrown into the blood pool, did not float up as expected, but instead sank straight down.

"Is he dead?"

Whether it was the Lin family ancestor in public or Lin Chen in secret, this thought flashed through their minds.

"Hmph, this little brat almost turned the tables!" After carefully observing for a while and seeing no movement, the Lin family ancestor snorted coldly. "I've done my part, now I just have to wait for that guy to come back and refine the Life Extending Pill for me!"

After saying that, he turned to leave. However, his footsteps suddenly paused because he sensed a terrifying aura coming from the blood pool behind him.

"What... what is this?" The Lin family ancestor turned around, his pupils shrinking suddenly. In the blood pool, Lin Tianhang emerged, not only covered in blood like a blood man, but also reaching the Foundation Building level in strength!

"This is impossible!" The Lin family ancestor's face changed drastically. He kept retreating, but only saw a flash of blood shadow in front of him. Then, he was grabbed by an unmatched force around his throat and lifted into the air!

"Cough cough, no, don't kill me! I know how your mother died..." Sensing the breath of death, the Lin family ancestor immediately became terrified and hurriedly spoke.

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt his body loosen and fell directly to the ground.

"Cough cough, as long as you let me go..." The Lin family ancestor was about to seize this opportunity to survive with the information he had, but he felt his head being held down by a hand.

"No... Ah!!!" He instantly realized that something was wrong. He wanted to say something, but his words turned into a miserable scream.

Soul search!

After a long time, Lin Tianhang raised his hand, and the Lin family ancestor under his hand turned into a half-rotted corpse.

"Why... why..." Lin Tianhang's eyes were lifeless, and a hollow and eerie voice echoed in the air.

Meanwhile, Lin Chen, who was hiding in the dark, couldn't help but shrink his pupils as he looked at Lin Tianhang. In his eyes, Lin Tianhang was naked, surrounded by a faint blood mist. Behind him, the blood pool had unexpectedly revealed a tall, eerie, and ever-changing blood shadow.

"This..." Lin Chen's face changed. Even though he was separated by an illusion, he could still feel the trembling from his instinctive life force. The realm of this blood shadow was probably not ordinary.

At the moment the blood shadow appeared, the blood pool seemed to lose all its strangeness and turned into an ordinary pool of blood.

And this blood shadow gradually approached Lin Tianhang, eventually clinging to his back like a festering sore.

At this moment, Lin Tianhang's pitch-black eyes slowly began to be stained with a crimson blood color!

Obviously, this blood shadow is invading his body and soul through some method!

Ding!

At this critical moment, as if from the depths of the universe, there came a crisp sound, followed by Lin Chen seeing a dark green light spot suddenly appearing on Lin Tianhang's forehead.

The green color emitted a vibrant breath, as if symbolizing the abundant life between heaven and earth, while the black color emitted a breath of eternal silence, as if representing the death of all things!

The two were like the two poles of yin and yang, constantly blending and devouring each other. But at this moment, the edges of them were stained with strands of crimson blood!

"What is that?!"

The successive changes in the scene in front of him made Lin Chen feel inexplicable.

But when the spiritual light on Lin Tianhang's forehead immediately attracted all his attention, because it not only gave him a strange sense of familiarity, but even the spiritual energy in his body autonomously resonated with it!

However, before he could figure it out, the scenery in front of him suddenly changed from a blood pool underground to a magnificent hall.

Seeing this scene, Lin Chen instantly understood that everything in front of him was related to Lin Tianhang's memories!

"Why, why did you kill my mother?!" Lin Tianhang stood in front of a noblewoman, his voice hollow and numb.

Lin Chen, who was watching from the side, immediately recognized this person. She was the wife of the head of the Lin family and the most distinguished mistress of the Lin family.

At this moment, she seemed to be confused, her eyes lifeless. But when she heard these words, a hint of resentment appeared on her face.

"Why? Naturally, that damn bitch took my position! The position of the mistress of the Lin family was originally mine! The spiritual object that impacted the Foundation Building was also mine. That bitch took everything away, so she deserves to die!"

"I added a large amount of tonic medicine to that bitch's medicine, hehe, it's useless to try to replenish..."

Before she could finish speaking, Lin Tianhang pressed down on her head.

The next moment, she seemed to wake up, looking at the scene in front of her with a terrified expression. But before she could beg for mercy, she let out a scream of despair.

"Ah!!!"

In the end, she also turned into a withered corpse.

"Why, why..." a strange murmuring voice echoed in the hall.

At this moment, the blood mist around Lin Tianhang became denser, and droplets of blood seeped out of his body. One-third of the blood shadow behind him had completely merged into his body, and his pitch-black eyes had turned into a crimson blood color!

And the spiritual light on his forehead was flickering madly at this moment, but it was completely surrounded by strands of blood light.

"Not good! There's an enemy invasion!" At this moment, an alarm suddenly sounded outside the hall, indicating that someone had discovered that the guards on the periphery had turned into withered corpses at some point.

Crack!

This sudden scream, as if it abruptly awakened Lin Tianhang, who turned stiffly and then took steps towards the hall.

Soon after, countless mournful screams came from outside, as if there were hundreds of people wailing!

And when Lin Tianhang walked out, Lin Chen also noticed something.

He could move freely now.

If he could only be trapped in a hallucination, influenced by the source of the hallucination, and could only see one side of his memory.

Then now, he seemed to have returned to a certain moment in the past of Jiangcheng, able to freely move in this world of memories.

Lin Chen's eyes narrowed, and then he followed the footsteps of Lin Tianhang.

Although he didn't know why he came to this hallucination in his memory, Lin Chen knew that the key to breaking free from here was in Lin Tianhang, because this was his memory.

However, just as he walked out the door, his expression suddenly changed.

The other person had just left, and he followed right after, but the scene in front of him seemed like a long time ago. The once splendid Lin family estate now seemed like hell.

Blood! Blood was everywhere!

The walls, the rooms, even the pillars seemed to be coated with a layer of dark red paint. The ground was covered in blood, which seemed to have a life of its own, constantly wriggling!

And those rock gardens, strange landscapes, and magnificent buildings, which used to be prosperous, now became desolate and barren. Broken stones were scattered everywhere, and dilapidated walls and collapsed ruins made it seem as if it had been abandoned for a long time.

Even when Lin Chen turned around, he saw the room he had just walked out of. It was once brightly lit and clean, but now it seemed as if it had been weathered for decades, decayed and worn out, with dark red bloodstains everywhere, as if it were a crime scene from decades ago.

Such a change in scenery gave Lin Chen a sense of illusion, as if with this step, he had crossed several decades of time!

"What exactly is going on here?"

Lin Chen looked down and found himself stepping on the blood-soaked ground, but he himself seemed like a phantom, with blood flowing past his ankles without any contact.

He furrowed his brows and walked forward step by step.

Stepping out of the courtyard, onto the path, passing by collapsed houses, and crossing dried-up ponds, there was not a single person in sight, only a sea of blood.

Lin Chen walked out of the Lin family estate and arrived on the main street, but it was the same. Everywhere there were collapsed houses, broken streets, and bloodstains everywhere, but not a single person, not even a single corpse.

Even the sounds of insects chirping and birds singing, all the sounds of nature seemed to have disappeared, leaving only the sound of his footsteps on the blood-soaked ground.

This place gave Lin Chen the feeling that everyone in the city had disappeared, leaving only this sea of blood and this deserted city that had been abandoned for decades!

Even the only thing that possessed vitality was not the vibrant vegetation, but the flowing liquid on the ground, resembling freshly spilled blood!

"What exactly happened here?" Lin Chen's heart was shrouded in gloom as he walked step by step through the city.

Until he reached the center of the city, finally he saw it, he saw...

A gigantic blood lotus spanning between heaven and earth!

This blood lotus was enchanting and eerie, filled with a unique vitality.

In the center of the lotus was Lin Tianhang, completely naked.

Above him were two towering figures!

One figure was surrounded by a vibrant green light, with countless virtual images of spirit plants such as "Che Ma Zhi," "Bu Jin Mu," and "Huai Meng Cao" swirling around him.

The other figure exuded a deathly silence, guarded by countless ghostly and zombie-like shadows, as if he were the king of ten thousand ghosts, the ancestor of zombies.

At this moment, both of these figures were constantly flickering with light, as if dispelling the boundless blood mist around them.

"Azure Cloud Sect and Xuan Yin Sect..."

Upon seeing this scene, Lin Chen finally understood why he had a faint sense of familiarity.

It was because the power of these two figures was similar to that of Azure Cloud Sect and Xuan Yin Sect!

No, it was not just similar, but rather they were the sources of power for these two sects!

If we follow this line of reasoning, then the identities of these two figures are...

Just as Lin Chen was contemplating, he suddenly felt his surroundings brighten. The originally dim red world instantly became as bright as daylight!

What, what's going on?!

Then, Lin Chen seemed to have realized something and suddenly looked up, gazing at the sky.

In the vast expanse of the sky, at some unknown time, a star shone brightly!

The green light representing vitality and the black light symbolizing death intertwined on the star, and then it directly tore through the vast night sky and descended towards Jiangcheng!

At this moment, a star descended!

Ah, my writing skills are not good. I've revised it many times and can only write it like this. My original intention was to construct a vast worldview, where each map has its own connection, in order to create a truly magnificent Immortal Cultivation World, instead of just changing maps and names. So I wanted to lay the groundwork in the early stages. But although the idea is good, my writing skills have held me back. Sigh, I can only practice more in the future. Let's see how it turns out. If it's really not good, I'll revise it again.
