I am immortal with scientific thinking

This world.

Middle Earth.

Kunling Mountain.

The moon is at its zenith and night has fallen. The stars in the sky are becoming brighter and brighter. The lights of thousands of homes in the distant Kunling City are like stars falling to the ground, showing the prosperity of the world.

This is Kunling City, the center of this world and the heartland of the Immortal Alliance. For millions of years, no demons or monsters of any kind have been able to invade it. It is a recognized paradise in the world of immortal cultivation.

Beside Kunling City, there are hills one after another. At the confluence of two high-level spiritual veins, Kunling Mountain forms a pattern of mountains within mountains.

At this moment.

Next to Kunling City, there is a mountain bathed in silvery moonlight.

This mountain has little light brought by people, only the twinkling fireflies in the mountains. It is still midsummer now, and the grass and trees on the mountain are green and lush. The surrounding spiritual energy is rich, turning into clouds and mist lingering in the mountains. The breeze blows on your face, setting off waves of pine trees and the clear sounds of birds singing.

At this moment, a figure holding a bamboo stick was walking slowly on the path in the mountains. He did not use any magic power, but walked forward leisurely step by step in wooden clogs. His sleeves were loose and his long robe fluttered in the wind. He looked indescribably leisurely and relaxed.

He is none other than the leader of the Immortal Alliance, Taoist Taixuan.

He walked up the jade steps step by step, reached the end, pushed open an antique wooden door, and entered the temple.

In the temple, there are many statues, they are portrayed so lifelike that even their faces can jump out of the paper.

The Moon Fairy, the Taoist Priest Hunyuan, the Sea Lord, the Sky Demon, the Drought Demon, the Mountain King, the Dragon King and... the Dream Fairy.

Each statue exudes a faint aura that is unique to it, as if it corresponds to every existence in the dark.

At this moment, countless cracks suddenly appeared on the statue of Meng Xian. With an extremely clear shattering sound, it exploded into powder all over the sky. When the wind blew, no trace was left.

"Congratulations, we have one less enemy..."

An ethereal, vague and traceless voice sounded in Taoist Taixuan's ears. He could only hear the voice but could not see the person.

Taoist Taixuan ignored him and looked at the shattered statue of Mengxian in front of him, lowering his eyelids and whispering:
"Although this world is fake, meeting and parting are not false..."

"Haha, it seems that our great leader believes that this world is fake... So when it comes to harming his fellow comrades, he is so ruthless?"

The voice chuckled.
"If you hadn't led the Dream Fairy into the dream and lured Taiyin and Yimu to perish together at the critical moment, causing the Nanhua Dream Sect to fall deeper and sink into the dream of the end, it would not be so easy for me to send this old friend to extinction..."

"Life and death are nothing but an illusion, just like this world, they are all fake." Taoist Taixuan said calmly, "We will meet again in the ocean of time and space. By then, we will be indistinguishable from each other, and there will be no difference between life and death."

"Don't you think so? Demon."

“I didn’t expect that the leader of the Immortal Alliance would recognize my path. I was really surprised when you came to cooperate with me…” A demon dressed in black suddenly appeared in this Taoist temple. “But Fellow Daoist Mengxian is our enemy. If it weren’t for your help, I would not have won the battle for the Great Dao and would not have reached the current pseudo-harmony realm.”

"Now that Meng Xian is completely dead, and the deeper nightmares are suppressed by the Great Array of Covering the Heavens and the Earth, I am the master of dreams in this world... Isn't the leader worried at all?"

Taoist Taixuan still turned a deaf ear and continued:
"Mengxian is dead, so how is the plan for the End of Dream going?"

"Although he is dead, he used his body to transform into a dream pupa, with the Final Dream as the embryo, and Nanhua Dream Mountain as the anchor... He activated this Final Dream into a nightmare, firmly anchoring it in the depths of the dream, unable to return to reality at all."

There was no expression on Tianmo's face, but his tone was a little cold.
"As long as the Final Dream cannot return to reality, the spiritual energy radiation that can contaminate and distort all things cannot appear in the world. We have no way to destroy the only four high-level spiritual veins left in the world and cause spiritual energy [famine]."

"So instead of using this spiritual energy radiation, why don't we just take action and destroy these four high-level spiritual veins!"

“High-level spirit veins are the foundation of this world, and they are not so easy to destroy. Even if they are forcibly destroyed by us, the huge spiritual energy in the spirit veins will return to heaven and earth and transform into another form of existence, which does not meet the conditions we want…” Taoist Taixuan spoke in a flat tone, but said words that made countless cultivators in the outside world feel horrified.

The foundation of the world of immortal cultivation is not the so-called inheritance of skills, realm cultivation, or the hundred arts of immortal cultivation, but spiritual energy.

It is because of the existence of spiritual energy that such a brilliant spiritual civilization can be born in this world.

And most of the spiritual energy between heaven and earth comes from the spiritual veins, which can be said to be the foundation of the immortal cultivation forces of all sizes in the four directions of the world. Now, Taixuan Taoist, who is the leader of the Immortal Alliance, is actually cooperating with Tianmo, the lord of the evil way, to destroy all the spiritual veins in the world. If this matter gets out, it will definitely break the hearts of countless cultivators who are loyal to the Immortal Alliance.

"So if you want to completely destroy the spiritual energy, you can only pollute it instead of destroying the spiritual veins."

"As expected of someone who has achieved enlightenment through spiritual energy, the leader is extremely proficient in how to destroy spiritual energy..." Tianmo chuckled, and it was hard to tell whether his tone was mocking or something else, but then he changed the subject, "But speaking of which, the so-called time traveler in the ancient will has already appeared."

"When I achieve enlightenment in the future, I will harvest his path in one fell swoop and turn it into my own nourishment, so I am not taking action now. But the leader of the alliance has not taken action either... Could it be that you are worried that the boy will ruin your plan?"

“You don’t need to test anything…” Taoist Taixuan did not answer the question of the demon, but looked at Him. “No matter what the purpose of this path is, there will only be one winner in the end. So no matter what you do, it doesn’t matter. Winning is the key.”

“…That’s right.” Upon hearing this, the demon couldn’t help but laugh. His figure became illusory again, as if he would disappear with the wind the next moment. “Then we’ll say goodbye now. The next time we meet will be during the catastrophe. That’s when we’ll decide who’s better, and whether to live or die.”

"I won't wait until the catastrophe. After all, I am also very interested in what happened on Penglai Island."

Taoist Taixuan said so.

The figure of the demon paused slightly when hearing this, and sighed softly:
"As expected, nothing can be hidden from you, fellow Daoist. The Demon Lord is on the island, waiting for the arrival of the Alliance Leader..."

brush--

As soon as he finished speaking, the figure of the demon completely disappeared in the Taoist temple.

Taoist Taixuan just stood quietly in the center of the Taoist temple, looking at the statue in front of him and the missing space, in a daze without saying a word.

I don't know how long it took before a gust of evening wind came and blew away a whispered voice in the wind:
"Like the morning dew, the past days are full of suffering..."

……

On the other side, in his own dream, Lin Chen slowly woke up, and the distracted spirits that had been waiting for a long time immediately surrounded him.

"Main body, are you okay?"

"What happened? Why did the Nanhua Dream Sect drag you into the dream?"

"Main body, what happened?"

In an instant, these distracted people immediately poured out all the questions in their minds, buzzing like mosquitoes in his ears, making Lin Chen feel overwhelmed.

"That's enough. I need some quiet time. Go do your own things!"

"Who is Jingjing? When did you find a new lover behind our backs? Let me see..."

Before the boy Da Ri could finish his words, Taoist Yi Mu at the side quickly covered his mouth and dragged him out.

Although children's words are innocent, if they really say nonsense, it can also cause disgusting feelings.

After his surroundings finally quieted down, Lin Chen couldn't help but rub his eyebrows.

The dream butterfly just now contained the ancient heritage, secret techniques, notes of predecessors, and strange stories of the Nanhua Dream School that spanned millions of years...

Even for him, it took a lot of effort to accept and calm down with such a huge amount of information.

The record of such a long period of time of an immortal sect also allowed Lin Chen to successfully complete the information of this world, including the major and minor forces in this world, the spiritual vein nodes of various places, the local customs and habits, etc.

For example, information such as the alliance of the four major elixirs, talismans, weapons and formations under the nine major immortal sects, the thirty-six celestial sects and the seventy-two earthly sects, and the distribution of various forces in the Central Earth immortal cultivation world.

Although these things are better than nothing to Lin Chen, they can greatly enrich his database, lay a solid foundation for his way of order, and become the nourishment for his all things.

In addition, there are some secrets and treasures that are useful to people at his level.

For example, the golden man who belongs to the Nanhua Dream Sect, and the formation diagram of how to seal the Dragon Source on the Yangji Island in the East China Sea [Innate Yin-Yang Bagua Sealing Spirit Formation], and the authority to enter the Nanhua Immortal Gate in Tiangong Island and Kunling Mountain...

Simply put, with these things, he is the contemporary elder of the Nanhua Dream Sect. The entire Immortal Alliance is important to him, and he has the right to enter and exit freely any place known as a restricted area or a heavy area.

"The gifts are many, but the help required is also not small..."

Lin Chen rubbed his temples, then sighed softly, put down his hands, opened his palms, and saw a dream butterfly emerging.

In an instant, the space around him began to ripple in circles, and then slowly formed layers of waves, distorting all the scenes, and finally bringing Lin Chen to an unknown place.

It is extremely chaotic and distorted here. Countless scenes that seem real, fake, real, and bizarre are emerging like a blowout. It seems to be a truly distorted and chaotic place where the past, present, and future are intertwined.

As Lin Chen sensed the dream butterfly in his palm, these bizarre scenes began to disappear rapidly. Instead, there was a pale light mist that continued to dissipate outwards, with countless large and small light rivers that symbolized the ups and downs of time...

This is the long river of time created by the cognition of all living beings in the dream!
It runs through the present, the past and the future, all events from ancient times to the present, and the unknown secrets hidden in history... everything is revealed in it.

Lin Chen stood on the long river of time, the dream butterfly in his hand flapping its wings continuously, leading him to a dark place.

The scene before him flashed by like a passing show, and finally led him to a place.

I saw an illusory ball of light floating in a seemingly endless river with countless phantoms of clocks floating on it.

In that illusory huge ball of light, an endless gray snowfield was revealed. The dark sky enveloped the entire field of vision. The drifting black snow never stopped, and the vast land was covered by black glaciers...

This is where Lin Chen obtained the black snow in his dream and it is also the place where the Nanhua Dream School completely fell - the Dream of the End.

Above this huge ball of light, Lin Chen saw one extremely thick chain of death after another, with countless hideous faces appearing on the surface. They were tightly wrapped around it, completely wrapping it up and dragging it downstream in the long river of time.

At the end of the chain is an endless black shadow that seems to be as high as the sky and the earth.

He is ineffable and difficult to describe. The first time you see him, your heart will unconsciously think of his name...

Snapped!
At this moment, Lin Chen crushed the dream butterfly in his hand.

The next moment, a gaze suddenly fell from the darkness, trying to find the location of the peeper.

But Lin Chen took the initiative to crush the medium and did not let the name ring in his heart. Even though he was aware of the spying, the black shadow was not omniscient and omnipotent to the point where it could know the cause and effect in one thought, so after searching again and again, it gave up the investigation.

Lin Chen, who had returned to his dream, looked at the dream butterfly that appeared again in his hand and couldn't help but sigh:
"Mengxian, Mengxian, you have brought me a big trouble..."

All Mengxian wants him to achieve is to prevent this final dream from returning to reality and polluting the world, and to be able to save the world from collapse in the future catastrophe.

The reason why he made the promise was that, on the one hand, he really wanted to know through the final dream what happened in the future that made him do such a thing.

On the other hand, although Lin Chen considers himself not to be a good person, since this matter was caused by him, it is natural for him to end it!
However, ending this matter is a matter for the future, but right now he needs to deal with a big trouble.

Meng Xian hopes that he can stop the final dream from returning to reality, so as to prevent the spiritual radiation from polluting the world.

Lin Chen also did not want this strange radiation to pollute the spiritual energy of the world. After all, his path was a combination of spiritual energy and dreams, and both were indispensable.

But the scene we just saw is already very clear. The one who wants the final dream to return to reality is the famous lord of the devil - Tianmo.

Now the question is, how can he take this final dream away from the other party, or prevent him from returning to reality...

"It really caused me a lot of trouble..."

Lin Chen's sigh echoed in the dream. (End of this chapter)
