I Cultivate Immortality With Scientific Thinking

Chapter 212 Undercurrent: The Method of Human Pill

Daqian, the nineteenth year of Yuantai, the first day of August.

Yunjing City.

The city wall stretches for nearly a hundred miles, and the city wall is eight feet high, towering like a mountain.

There are a total of 18 gates, four turrets, six water gates, 372 enemy towers, and countless battlements.

There are 160,000 registered households, with a total population of over one million.

This giant city with a population of one million is the veritable heart of the dynasty and the head of the Dragon Vein in terms of Feng Shui.

Through the official roads extending in all directions and the Grand Canal running through the north and south, it handles a massive flow of people and goods every moment, as well as the majestic energy of the entire Great Qian Dynasty.

Lin Chen and Xu Yue directly followed the outside crowd and entered the huge Yunjing City.

"This place deserves to be the capital of the dynasty. Even at this time, it is still so lively..." Xu Yue raised his head and looked around, sighing.

I saw people flowing around, cars and horses sparkling, the floor paved with gold bricks, and rows of jade trees.

At one glance, it is magnificent, full of the style of a great nation from all over the world. Looking at it again, it is majestic and filled with countless splendors.

Especially on the Grand Canal in the south of the city, the endless white sail shadows are connected like clouds.

Boat after boat filled with fruits, vegetables, grain, cloth, and various rare treasures came along the river, continuously importing products from all over the country into the capital.

This grand canal is more than 4,000 miles long and connects the five major water systems of Dagu River, Zhuo River, Wohe River, Tianqian River and Fuchun River.

It also connects several of the most important water dragon veins in the country.

So even if the severe drought in the north gradually deepens, other parts of the Great Qian Dynasty will be starved to death.

Not only was Yunjing City not affected, it actually became more prosperous.

"It's just the last glimpse." Walking on the prosperous street, Lin Chen's expression was normal. After all, he had seen things more lively than this, and he was not surprised at all.

"Because the world is already in chaos, most of the middle and lower class powerful people have poured in, bringing with them an even greater amount of manpower, material resources, and financial resources."

“The large-scale purchases of houses and properties, as well as the food, clothing, housing and transportation of their families and servants, directly contributed to the unprecedented prosperity of all walks of life in the capital.”

"In addition, people at the bottom are trying to survive, so labor is extremely cheap, and this has become the so-called demographic..."

"But this is only temporary. As time goes by, the world's chaos expands, food harvests fail, and supplies decrease. If there is not enough supplies flowing in, and wealth is taken away by the top, without a solution, sooner or later it will collapse. of."

The scene in Yunjing City at this moment is like pouring a bowl of hot oil on the fire. No matter how you look at it, it is a prosperous scene of burning oil.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is just the scene before the return of light.

After all, when the whole world is in disaster and nothing is done, it is only a matter of time before the dynasty collapses and enters reincarnation.

Of course, this was in the past.

After all, since the heavenly law came to the human world, the eternal cycle of reincarnation has changed. This seems to be the scene at the end of the dynasty, but perhaps, there will be many more variables.

Therefore, just in case, and in order to completely eliminate the monopoly of the aristocratic family and the royal family, almost all the forces in the world put aside their prejudices and gathered in Yunjing, hoping to send this dynasty to its last stop.

Not only must we completely end this Great Qian Dynasty, we must also end the reincarnation of these thousands of years, and completely create a new era for those of them who have practiced Immortal Law!

Therefore, all the major forces came out in full force, wanting to have a decisive battle here.

As for who wins and who loses, no one is worried, because no one thinks that they will lose.

"Other forces have separated and sneaked into the Yunjing City. When the main force came to join together, they launched a great change in one fell swoop, captured the Black Tortoise Gate, and destroyed the Imperial Palace City." Xu Yue said in a voice message, "I don't know about the Dynasty Family. How are they going to deal with it?"

"Although the power of the aristocratic family is huge, it is scattered all over the world and cannot be gathered in one place in Yunjing. Moreover, they do not want to have a being on their head, so in this operation, they are more likely not to take action, but to sit back and watch. If we fight, we hope that both sides will lose." Lin Chen analyzed.

"And even if we really take action, in a close encounter, these people who are best at fighting for power and controlling the overall situation, I'm afraid they won't be your opponents in a real fight. After all, there are only one or two people in the family who can create their own alliance."

"In other words, if there is a real fight, we actually only need to face the old emperor's power? That would be a lot easier." Xu Yue turned his head and said.

"That's not necessarily true. After all, the old emperor is still a bit interesting, and..."

And me...

"Um?"

At this time, Lin Chen seemed to sense something and turned around to look.

Among the crowd, a middle-aged scholar wearing a green shirt was looking towards them.

After noticing Lin Chen's gaze, he withdrew his gaze, turned around and left.

"What's wrong?" Xu Yue asked.

"Follow me." Lin Chen lifted his legs and walked away. Xu Yue was stunned for a moment, then thought about it and followed him.

At the same time, in the Imperial City Palace, there are Ninth Layer pavilions and Yuyu Qiong Tower.

In a spacious and bright hall, located in the center is a huge and burning alchemy furnace.

All kinds of precious genius treasures and rare herbs were thrown into the alchemy furnace as if they were worthless.

It has been burning for nearly a hundred days and has never been extinguished.

But at this moment, the fire in the furnace began to gradually become smaller.

Yu Fu, who had been standing aside for a long time, stepped forward, put his hand into it, then took it back, and then saluted the old emperor behind him.

"Your Majesty, the elixir is almost ready."

"Hahaha, good, good, good!" Behind him, the old emperor, who was much older than ten years ago and had always been moody and taciturn, actually shouted in surprise at this moment.

"It's not in vain that I have put in so much effort. I finally got this result today. Good, good... cough, cough, cough!" It seemed that he was overly surprised. The old emperor felt his body go weak and he couldn't stop coughing.

"Your Majesty!" Yu Fu stepped forward quickly, took out a blood-colored pill, and gave it to the old emperor to take.

"Huh..." After taking the elixir, the old emperor felt a burst of warmth in his abdomen. At the same time, the wrinkles on his face were reduced a lot.

After he recovered, he did not continue to ask about the elixir in the furnace. Instead, he changed the subject and asked to the side: "How are those untouchables doing recently?"

"The Dao Sect and the Taiping Dao are not involved in this matter. The Martial Alliance has been destroyed. The Tianyin Sect, the Witch Nightmare Tao, the Wuzong, the Beggar Clan, the Miao Gu Clan, and even the Northern Barbarians have all started to invade. It is expected that within the next few days Arrival." In the empty hall, a gentle-looking old eunuch replied from the side.

"Jie Jie Jie! Okay, very good, here we come, here we come..." The old emperor's face was cold, but the corners of his mouth could not stop sneering.

"Your Majesty, let me remind you that with the method of human elixir, the closer the bloodline is, the more everything can be deprived of them. But if it is an outsider, I'm afraid..." Yu Fu couldn't help but say.

The human elixir method is another path he took based on the method taught by the immortals.

This path is divided into two types.

One is to swallow a piece of heavenly material and earthly treasure, and according to a specific method of exercise, the medicinal properties of this wonderful medicine are continuously nurtured.

Then, take all the medicines in a complete elixir together with other auxiliary medicines, and then the vitality with the effect of this elixir will be born.

After being infiltrated with unique medicinal energy, this special energy will condense into a pill, and the user can use it to take away part of the host's things, such as cultivation, abilities, or... longevity, but it is taken away. The host of the walking pill will fall into death.

The advantage of this method is that it can plunder the power of others to the greatest extent without much hidden danger, but it has strict requirements on the host of the human elixir method, because it must be a blood relative.

The second method is to directly use humans as the main medicine, add other medicinal materials, and forcibly refine it into an elixir.

But this way, it is easy to be affected by the breath of others, causing physical damage, greatly shortening lifespan, and even turning into a madman, so the old emperor chose the former one.

"It doesn't matter." Knowing that this would have serious consequences, the old emperor said this with a sneer, "Don't forget, am I not the one who still has a lot of princes and princesses?"

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, what do you mean..." Yu Fu was stunned for a moment, raised his head, and said with wide eyes.

He suddenly realized that although he created the human elixir method, in terms of cruelty and viciousness, I am afraid that he is really not as good as the person in front of him.

"I have raised them for so many years, so it is not too much to ask them to pay a little. Besides, even my prince is lying in this alchemy furnace, so what's wrong with adding them?" the old emperor said on his face. His face became expressionless, but it made the two people present shudder.

The desire to eat to prolong life is completely contrary to human ethics.

But he actually wants to use other princes and grandsons to let them eat those who have practiced the inner alchemy method, seize their power, and then swallow them himself, so as to combine immortality and great power!

"All I have done is for the common people in the world." The old emperor stared blankly into Yu Fu's eyes and said word by word, "Only if immortality and great power are concentrated in me, can I be destroyed in one fell swoop. All the opposing forces in the world will create a beautiful country according to my ideas. Do you understand this?"

"Yes, yes..." The two of them quickly lowered their heads in response.

"Very good, let's go down." A kind but weird smile appeared on the old emperor's face.

After both of them got down, the old emperor turned around and faced the huge burning alchemy furnace.

He looked at this scene, his eyes a little absent-minded, and he couldn't help but murmured: "Prince, don't worry, everyone in the world will be with you soon, and by then, you won't be lonely anymore..."

"And I will gather the expectations of all of you, combine immortality and great power, and become the only immortal in this world!"

The chilling words echoed throughout the hall. In the alchemy furnace, a raging, bright and bright flame was reflected, but a figure that was twisted and uncertain, like an abyss!
