Lin Beichen is too arrogant.
No matter how strong an individual’s martial power is, it cannot possibly resist weapons manufactured by modern technology.
Ordinary firearms are mere child’s play; laser weapons, guided weapons, and even nuclear weapons.
The reason why the ancient clans don’t utilize modern weaponry is because they are obsessed with the body’s limits.
Even when Zhao Tianjie and others were on the brink of death, they never considered using modern weapons to take action.
This group of people are all stubborn traditionalists.
They use modern technology to break through their own limits, but they absolutely won’t use modern weapons.
Call them stupid, call them stubborn and childish, but they have never changed, nor have they ever broken this rule.
Just because they don’t use them, doesn’t mean they don’t understand the power of modern weapons.
No matter how strong Lin Beichen is, he is only strong within this circle. Once he steps out of it, what kind of storm could he possibly stir up?
"A summer insect cannot discuss ice with you."
Lin Beichen said faintly.
The high temperatures produced by nuclear fission are indeed terrifying, but with modern technology, it still cannot be miniaturized, let alone reduced to a micro size.
From aiming to launching to explosion, there are too many complicated steps involved in deploying a nuclear weapon.
As long as the explosion’s center point is not directly on Lin Beichen, even if he can’t withstand it, he would always find a way to dodge it.
Once he perfects the Power of the Five Elements and condenses the Five Elements Qi to impact the celestial being realm,
by then, unless certain forces have mastered Zenith Star’s technology to cause nuclear fission to explode within his body directly, even enduring a nuclear weapon wouldn’t be an impossible feat for Lin Beichen.
"Has your Medicine Immortal Pavilion invested in controlled nuclear fusion?"
Lin Beichen suddenly asked.
Upon hearing this, Qi Liuyan looked puzzled and shook his head.
"Is controlled nuclear fusion really achievable?"
Qi Liuyan asked.
Whenever someone brings up controlled nuclear fusion, people always say it’s possible, yet when asked about a specific timeline, it’s the eternally unchanging "in another 50 years."
However, considering the current two major paths, Qi Liuyan thought it might not even be achievable in fifty years, perhaps burning incense for luck might make it possible in another hundred years.
"Actually, you could consider investing in it."
Lin Beichen said lightly.
Once he reaches the celestial being realm, perhaps he would have the chance to challenge the legendary controlled nuclear fusion.
"What’s the point of investing in this? Isn’t it just money down the drain?"
Qi Liuyan muttered quietly.
"Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. You just believe that as long as you’re involved, controlled nuclear fusion will definitely succeed, don’t you?"
"You’re so arrogant, you’ve just killed Zhao Tianjie and you’re getting more full of yourself, wait until you see Mr. Lijiang, you’ll surely face a setback."
As a member of the Medicine Immortal Pavilion, Qi Liuyan holds Mr. Lijiang in high regard.
Not just her, everyone in the Medicine Immortal Pavilion, when talking about Mr. Lijiang, would express their deep admiration.
He is a cultivator who has withdrawn from the world, practicing both Buddhist and Daoist paths.
Moreover, the Pavilion’s consecrated experts come from all over the world, not just Mr. Lijiang, there are many masters proficient in various cultivation paths.
Qi Tiankuang moving to the outside world was enough to shock all parties, yet within the Medicine Immortal Pavilion, he is merely a Law Enforcement Elder.
There are twelve Law Enforcement Elders in the Medicine Immortal Pavilion.
Traveling from the Imperial Capital to the Medicine Immortal Pavilion, one must first take a plane, then switch to train, car, and finally, there’s even a mountainous road where cars can’t go, so one can only use ox carts.
Lin Beichen departed from Zhongcheng Hall, escorted by a private jet the entire way, yet upon reaching the train, Lin Beichen refused their offer to book an entire train carriage.
Zhongcheng Hall can afford the expense, and has the necessary connections to enact this.
However, Lin Beichen had only a few people with him, and he wasn’t worried about encountering assassins, so why be so ostentatious?
Lin Beichen merely requested a few business class seats.
The new body for the wooden man was larger, nearly 2.2 meters tall and sturdy, occupying three seats by himself.
With no available place for the wooden man to sit, Lin Beichen had him squat in the rest area.
The sizable wooden man, like a bullied child, squatted in the corner.
Everyone who passed by couldn’t help but scrutinize the wooden man.
How did this guy grow so tall?
Qi Liuyan looked at Lin Beichen, feeling very helpless.
"With Zhongcheng Hall’s resources and your current prestige, it shouldn’t be difficult to open a separate air route just for you, or even escort you with helicopters the entire way, right?"
"I don’t trust the skies."
Lin Beichen said lightly.
Though he had already surpassed human limits, if an aircraft is hit or targeted by a missile above ten thousand meters in altitude, there would be no way to escape.
Beneath the celestial being realm, cultivation might grant numerous divine techniques, but still, man cannot transcend certain boundaries.
Moreover, Lin Beichen was primarily taking a leisure break.
Traveling abroad was for relaxation, and visiting the Medicine Immortal Pavilion was also for leisure. Since it’s all about relaxation, why rush directly to the destination?
The Medicine Immortal Pavilion has remained there for hundreds of years, it’s not going anywhere, he has all the time in the world to get there.
Qi Liuyan pursed her lips.
She just thought this guy is too arrogant and now he seems overly cautious.
What does this guy really think?
Everyone accompanied Lin Beichen, tirelessly serving him, yet after getting off the train, Lin Beichen insisted that Zhao Weinan leave.
From here on, it was deep mountain terrain.
Far from the civilized areas, even Lin Beichen couldn’t guarantee utmost safety for others.
Zhao Weinan was merely an ordinary person; forcing her to follow him would do more harm than good.
The Medicine Immortal Pavilion lies deep in the mountains, with few outsiders entering for hundreds of years.
Even those who know the location of the Pavilion at most only know a general area, not the specific routes.
