I am immortal with scientific thinking

dark.

gloomy.

All the scenes disappeared at this moment.

This feeling is not like being trapped in a small dark room, deprived of all light and vision, but more like falling into an eternal abyss nightmare, experiencing the deprivation of hearing, the erasure of vision, and then falling into a collapse that makes people lose all five senses, and completely lose the will to live - nothingness.

"Female tree..."

This was Lin Chen’s last thought as he fell into the darkness of nothingness.

The monster behind this "pseudo-human" [Female Tree] can actually use brain waves to affect the soul realm that cannot be verified by science...

Does this mean that the soul really exists in the materialistic world, or is it an invasion of idealism that has exceeded a certain limit of the present world?

But none of this matters. We still have to get rid of the current situation, otherwise we will be trapped in this void for who knows how many years.

When Lin Chen thought of this, he felt something in his heart:
"chip!"

The nothingness before my eyes faded away at an unprecedented speed, turning into darkness due to the dim light, and a light blue light curtain projection appeared before my eyes.

"It has been detected that the subject's nerves are in an unknown state. There is insufficient data to determine the impact. Should we mobilize the previous data in the database for modeling analysis?"

"Yes, check the physical condition at the same time." Lin Chen ordered.

"The body is in good condition... Ding! The host's brain has suffered unknown damage. The cause is unknown. Should we mobilize the previous data in the database for modeling analysis?"

Sure enough, this [Female Tree] does not have the ability to make people explode from a distance. It can only use special means to make their brain waves resonate at the same frequency to achieve the purpose of killing or controlling them.

If that is the case, it means that no matter how dangerous it is, his reincarnated body will not completely explode into flesh and blood powder.

Based on this point, Lin Chen did not get away immediately. After all, if it came to real matter, with his means that had just been reincarnated, he could not resist the firepower of weapons at all. But if it was in the idealistic and mysterious soul realm, as a person who was once at the level of a spirit and had an artificial golden finger in his hand, he really had no idea.

And even if it fails, so what?

In the past, he fused the Phoenix feathers that could allow living beings to undergo rebirth from life and death with his true spirit, allowing him to have this opportunity to be resurrected every month even after his reincarnation.

If you fail, you have a way out; if you die, there is a guarantee; if you succeed, you can still get huge benefits... In this case, why not take the risk?

At least judging from the current situation, although it is somewhat critical, even Nirvana is not worth using, and it is obviously not beyond the worst expectations.

"So the female tree wants to continue to control us, and then use us as a medium to invade the entire human society?" Lin Chen's thoughts were scattered, "No, if it was really so easy to do, it would not have bred fake people and risked being exposed to replace humans. So if you want to achieve this step, you must pay a high price, otherwise the other party would not do this... huh?"

As if sensing something, Lin Chen's gaze shifted away from the blue screen in front of him and turned to the endless dark abyss beside him.

The next moment, in this deep darkness, it seemed to blur for a moment, and then became a little clearer. Although it was unclear in the darkness, it still gave people a concept of light.

At the moment when this faint light was born, the deep darkness around it seemed to be endowed with the concept of flow, creating a feeling of seeing the surging waves.

And at this moment, Lin Chen felt that he was in a trance, and his entire perception of the world seemed to become blurred in an instant.

He felt that his consciousness was in a tug-of-war between clarity and confusion, and eventually his whole person underwent an unexpected change.

This feeling is difficult to describe in words. It is as if the "consciousness" that was originally sealed in one's own body suddenly "extends" for a moment.

At this moment, he felt that his mind had suddenly become extremely sharp, his perception range was extremely broad, and even his soul had expanded beyond his body and established connections with countless consciousnesses at extremely far distances.

However, these consciousnesses are very strange. Just touching them gives people the feeling of touching a stiff corpse in reality, numb, cold, and with a dead silence that no living creature can possess.

At this moment, the darkness began to fade away little by little, and dots of light appeared around. Various scenes were transformed from a personal perspective. At the core, extremely stiff faces emerged, as if they were puppets being controlled by someone...

Fang Changqing, Su Mu, special forces members, staff from the Supernatural Research Institute branch... all participated in this incident and were attacked by the female tree.

And at the end of the darkness, there stood a tree that made people shudder.

It stood in the depths of darkness, its roots digging deep into the mountain of corpses, as if absorbing the fear and despair of the living beings. The trunk was twisted like an old woman's hunched body, and the bark was covered with wrinkles and cracks. Countless human brains hung on the branches like strange fruits, with blood vessels and nerves entwined like vines, swaying gently.

Each human brain was constantly floating, as if whispering, emitting a faint buzz that converged into a creepy chorus.

It is both a distortion of life and a symbol of death, which is chilling.

However, what really made Lin Chen feel solemn was that in addition to revealing the weird and idealistic side of the other party, another overlapping image appeared in his eyes.

In that overlapping shadow, its trunk presents a twisted linear structure of spiral gene chains, with a wrinkled cortex similar to human gray matter on the surface, and tens of thousands of neuronal synapses forming a bioelectric signal transmission network under the skin. The drooping branches are actually improved nerve bundles, and the brain-like organs hanging at the ends seem to be synchronized with the main brain tree through the neural sheath, which is suspected to be in a quantum entangled state.

Each suspended secondary brain unit retains the memory map of the original host, and its surface is densely covered with neural circuits labeled with fluorescent proteins. The 3.5Hz theta brain waves will trigger a collective resonance effect, forming a hallucinogenic brain field in an unknown range.

Mystery and science, idealism and materialism, overlap on this female tree, which is constructing a strange ecosystem spanning matter and consciousness in a way that is difficult for carbon-based organisms to understand.

This means that the other party has adapted to the rules of this world and has begun the formal invasion.

Lin Shuchen was not unfamiliar with the female tree. He had dealt with it many times in the East China Sea cultivation world before, but it was usually a derivative. According to the information collected from the Immortal Alliance, its true body was an ancient demon [female tree] in the prehistoric era, comparable to the great power of refining the void, and walking the path of creating life. It could differentiate into hundreds of millions of sub-strains, parasitizing the world. As long as one sub-strain survived, it would be almost immortal. It could be said to be a terrifying creature that was as indelible as the Shura of the Blood Sea.

If it had not wanted to imitate the [True Spirit Atlas] created by the ancient mythical beast [Bai Ze] which engraved the souls of all monsters, and created the [Blood Path of All Souls] that could record the original bloodlines of all monsters in the world, which aroused the interest of the ancient cultivators, who hunted it down in the Thirty-Three Heavens and finally dragged it into the Return for experiment, perhaps it would have been qualified to join the ancient cultivators like other top races after the bloody battle among all races in the prehistoric world, instead of being sealed in the Covering Heaven and Earth Array.

But this was a thing of the past. During the great battle between good and evil in the East China Sea, the efforts to suppress the world-destroying sea tide caused a loophole in the seal, allowing this ancient demon to escape and reincarnate into this world.

Now that he has been reincarnated, he seems to have broken through the rules of the world and started to show himself in the world. As soon as he appeared, he brought trouble to Lin Chen.

"But fortunately, it has just appeared in the world not long ago. Otherwise, if it becomes popular, it will be troublesome..."

In order to adapt to the rules of this world, the other party has initially transformed into a carbon-based organism, using this as the main body and the medium for invading reality.

That means that as long as the other party's carbon-based body born in the present world is destroyed, this incident can be resolved.

However, right now his body is still in the branch of the Supernatural Research Institute. Even if he uses the chip to forcibly recover, rushing there will not only take time, but also be targeted by the female tree, and will increase various variables. Therefore, the best way is to wake up those people whose brain waves are in sync at the scene, and let them destroy the female tree's fragile present body!
Those who can do this...

Lin Chen instantly looked at the light spots floating around him and locked onto an existence emitting a faint green light.

That was the light spot of Su Mu's consciousness, and also the reincarnation of Yi Mu Taoist, his previous life's spirit.

With this thought in mind, Lin Chen no longer hesitated. A translucent light spot flashing with countless data streams flew out from his consciousness and went straight into Su Mu's light spot.

The method used by the female tree is to synchronize the brain waves in the technological field, thus evolving into the soul plundering in the mysterious field. It cannot be awakened by relying on the so-called will or love, and must rely on external forces.

On this basis, the chip bound to his true spirit is the best choice.

Both she and the female tree were creations of the previous life's spirit, so they were naturally equally mysterious. Moreover, she could mobilize the bodies of living people, allowing even mortal bodies to function like machines according to instructions. This meant that she could influence the host's brain waves, thereby getting rid of the current state of being manipulated.

In this way, it is entirely possible to wake Su Mu up and have him execute the operation of beheading the female tree on the spot!

However, if he gave the chip away, his consciousness would be out of control due to the influence of his body's brain waves, and then his life and death would depend on whether Su Mu could succeed.

But Lin Chen did not hesitate at all, because his clone was one with his original body. Lin Chen believed that even if it was his own incarnation, it would not be difficult to defeat a mere monster!

drop--!
At this moment, the chip began to awaken in Su Mu's consciousness, and Lin Chen's own consciousness quickly became blurred at this moment, like a puppet on a string.

"Hmm! This is ..."

Su Mu regained consciousness quickly, and gradually got rid of the restrained state. The face in the light spot turned, and he saw Lin Chen's dull and stiff face, and was shocked:
"Original body!"

"Damn, this monster is not hard to kill, but it is hard to deal with it without being confused and in a sober state..."

Su Mu instantly realized his current situation. At the same time, he clicked on the screen in front of him, and a message suddenly appeared:
"I see. I, the guy in the fake man's lair, have to carry out the decapitation operation. In that case...chip!"

In his mind, a voice that sounded exactly like his, but with a mechanical and stiff voice, suddenly rang out:
"The Order Chip is at your service. Please give instructions."

"Check my physical condition."

“Beep!——” In an instant, the translucent screen in front of him took on a faint scarlet color, full of warning. “Alert, alert! The host’s brain wave frequency is abnormal, and it has dropped below the natural frequency!”

"What's the frequency now?!"

"After testing, the host's current brain wave frequency is 4 Hz, and it is affected by unknown factors, and has undergone unpredictable changes!"

4 Hz? Doesn't that mean I'm half a vegetable now?!

Brain wave frequencies are divided into alpha, beta, delta, and theta waves.

The frequency band between 12 and 38 Hz is called beta waves, which are brain waves at the "conscious" level; when a person's attention is reduced and they are in a relaxed state, the frequency of brain waves will drop to 8 to 12 Hz, which are called alpha waves; after entering the sleep state, the frequency of brain waves drops further and is divided into theta waves (4 to 8 Hz) and delta waves (0.5 to 4 Hz), which respectively reflect the state of a person in the "subconscious" and "unconscious" stages.

Now that his brain wave frequency is at this stage, it means that his body has been forced into a dormant state and can only be manipulated by others!
"Use human hormones to forcibly stimulate organs and increase the brain wave frequency!" Su Mu gave the order.

"This will cause unknown damage to the body. Do you want to execute it?" the chip prompted.

"Go ahead!"

……

At this moment, the slaughterhouse was already a bloody mess.

One after another, naked pseudo-humans with pale and stiff skin appeared, looking like the dead. There were strange curves on their cold and numb faces, and they held hammers in their hands, as if they were hitting something heavy.

But when seeing what they hold in their hands, anyone would feel horrified, because what they are hitting are not important things at all, but one after another...living people's heads.

The still slightly moving human brain was personally sent to a tree by the pseudo-man, who then inserted its branches, like nerve sheaths, into the human brain and turned it into a part of it.

A terrifying ghost tree with countless human brains hanging on it. This is the scene Su Mu saw after waking up. (End of this chapter)
