Cultivating Immortality Starts with Rubbing a Computer

Chapter 23 Analysis of Sword Qi
In the outer formation of the Hongyun Sword Palace, Fang Jun's figure shuttled through the dense sword energy.

His body was constantly bearing the impact of the sword energy; his clothes had long been torn and his skin was covered with dense scars.

However, there was a glint of excitement in his eyes, and even a hint of a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Come more, come more!"

He roared in his heart, as if he was enjoying the pain of being pierced by thousands of swords.

Originally, Fang Jun planned to follow the strategy He Hui told him, pass through the outer formation, climb to the peak of the Red Cloud Sword Palace, and then collect herbs.

However, when he actually stepped into the formation, a strong curiosity surged in his heart.

How do these sword energies maintain stability in this environment where the laws of nature are flawed?

Fang Jun had previously analyzed that in the environment of the Red Cloud Sword Palace, the stability of mana would be greatly reduced.

The sword energy condensed by magic power should also become unstable.

However, the sword energy in front of him could exist stably at a long distance after condensing, and its attack range far exceeded Fang Jun's expectations.

If the energy values ​​of these sword energies are high, it makes sense that they dissipate slowly.

But the sword energy that attacked Fang Jun was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining. How could it have such an amazing range?

This is completely contradictory to Fang Jun's theory.

Either his theory was wrong, or there were variables he was unaware of.

In fact, the moment Fang Jun was attacked by the sword energy, his spiritual sense had already sensed something unusual.

He discovered that there was a wonderful magic power circulation structure hidden in these sword energies, and it was this structure that maintained the stability of the magic power after it left the dantian.

What shocked Fang Jun even more was that he could actually understand this structure! The structure of sword energy was traceable and could be seen frequently during normal practice.

"This is actually a structure that contains spiritual consciousness within mana!"

"But it's different from simply controlling mana through spiritual consciousness. This is because spiritual consciousness is combined with mana in some form, and together they enhance their own stability!"

"No, it's not just that. It's the stability of this structure that makes the sword energy so powerful. Even with the same amount of magic power, it's more powerful. It's like throwing cotton and bullets with the same amount of energy."

The most feared thing in physics research is not the complexity of phenomena, but the absence of phenomena.

Just like scientists in previous lives built particle colliders, it was precisely to create new physical phenomena and promote research progress.

For ordinary monks, even if they have seen this structure and understand a little bit, they can do nothing about it.

However, Fang Jun has the second Yuanshen, and unlike You Zhimeng, he is unable to try to capture and study it, so...

"Soul No. 2! Start!"

"Discover a new mana model..."

"Parsing..."

"Analyzing..."

"Insufficient information, more data is needed to fill in the gaps..."

It is not enough to simply see this structure.

Just like knowing the appearance of a fighter jet can only help you analyze some aerodynamic principles, the real core is still hidden deep inside.

So, Fang Jun tried to use his magic power to capture these sword energies.

However, he soon discovered a problem: in order to capture sword energy in the outside world, he had to burst out with magic power that surpassed the sword energy.

However, these sword energies grew stronger as they encountered stronger opponents, their power increasing with the strength of their opponents. Even though Fang Jun could resist them, he couldn't capture them.

So, Fang Jun came up with a bold idea - to use his body to contain the sword energy.

The principle was simple. To capture the sword energy, one needed to construct an energy barrier outside of the body to stably contain it. However, constructing such a barrier outside of the body was not easy.

However, the cultivator's body itself is a lower energy barrier, otherwise it would be impossible for magic power and spiritual consciousness to flow through the meridians.

With this natural low-level energy barrier, and a little enhancement with magic power, the sword energy can be successfully restrained.

In the past, Fang Jun would never easily try such a method that would harm his body.

But now, You Zhimeng's threat is right in front of him, and he doesn't believe that You Zhimeng will only use elixirs and not resort to force.

Perhaps if Fang Jun shows no signs of any unusual behavior, the other party might take matters into their own hands. At that point, victory or defeat would be determined by force.

So no matter what, Fang Jun must improve his strength as soon as possible in order to deal with future crises.

"Not enough! Not enough! The sword energy of the fourth level of Qi Refining is not enough for me to analyze thoroughly. I need stronger and more sword energy!"

Fang Jun's "essence" has reached 11.72, and his physical strength far exceeds that of cultivators of the same level.

His meridians were like tough spiritual veins, his bones were as hard as pure gold, and the surface of his skin was faintly glowing with a faint spiritual light, like a natural energy barrier.

However, when the sword energy of the fifth level of Qi Refining surged into his body like a torrent—

"puff!"

A large amount of blood spurted out of Fang Jun's mouth, mixed with the red light of sword energy, like a burning flame drawing an arc in the air.

His body trembled slightly, and a tearing pain came from his meridians, as if countless tiny sharp blades were wreaking havoc in his body.

However, his eyes became brighter and brighter, like the brightest stars in the night sky!

"Soul Two, activate overclocking mode!"

In the sea of ​​consciousness, the computing speed of Yuanshen No. 2 instantly soared to 500 million times per second!

Countless data streams poured down like waterfalls, and every fluctuation and every trajectory of the sword energy was accurately captured and analyzed.

In Fang Jun's sea of ​​consciousness, a complex diagram of the sword energy structure was rapidly taking shape. The energy flow of each sword energy and each point of combination of spiritual consciousness and magic power were clearly marked.

"Analysis progress: 45%... 60%... 75%..."

Fang Jun clenched his teeth, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.

His body seemed to have become a battlefield, with sword energy rampaging through his meridians, trying to break through his energy barriers.

However, Fang Jun's body was like an indestructible fortress, firmly binding the sword energy within his body.

"It's not enough! More!"

Fang Jun growled, actively directing more sword energy into his body. Fine cracks began to appear on the surface of his skin, like porcelain about to shatter.

"Analysis progress: 90%... 95%... 99%..."

Finally, under the overclocking operation of Yuanshen No. 2, the structure of the sword energy was completely analyzed.

A complete model of the sword energy slowly took shape in Fang Jun's sea of ​​consciousness. He could clearly see that the divine consciousness and magical power within the sword energy combined in a wonderful rhythm, forming a unique energy circulation structure.

"So beautiful! So perfect!"

"This energy circulation structure is perfect!"

"What You Zhimeng's mana structure is nothing but a dog on the side of the road!"

"This is...this is!"

"So that's it... So that's it! I understand! I understand! Life is a miracle of negative entropy!"
