Invincibility Begins with Mastery of Fist Techniques-Chapter 158 - 152: The Dao of Science

As the Immortal Realm Illusion was torn apart, Zhang Dongwei's massive Celestial Demon True Form strode forward, his gaze fixed on the Golden Silk Jade Bottle in Alex's hand.

"A Celestial Demon?"

Seeing Zhang Dongwei walk toward him, a flicker of surprise flashed through Alex's eyes.

He could sense that this was undoubtedly a Void Celestial Demon constructed from pure spirit. However, the solidity of its Celestial Demon True Form, as well as its appearance, was somewhat unexpected.

It was the first time he had ever seen a Celestial Demon True Form that presented itself in a purely human image.

'Could it be... an Ancient Cultivator from Donghua Country who transformed into a Celestial Demon by taking the Elixir of Immortality?'

A hint of interest glinted in Alex's eyes. During his previous explorations, he had encountered an Ancient Cultivator in a palace who had also taken the Elixir of Immortality. That person's soul's true form had completely transformed, becoming indistinguishable from a true Celestial Demon. Their sanity had been severely affected, and they could no longer be called human.

And this, it seemed, was the normal reaction after consuming the Elixir of Immortality.

But this Celestial Demon before him, judging by his appearance and his earlier words, seemed not to have lost the reason that made him human. He had not been completely assimilated by the Elixir of Immortality and turned into a monster; he could still communicate.

This was a special case.

And in scientific research, a special case meant immense research value. If he could capture him and bring him back, perhaps he could help the expert team unravel the secrets hidden within the Elixir of Immortality much faster.

At this thought, a joyful glint appeared in Alex's eyes, as if he had just spotted an exciting piece of prey.

"A man from the Western Regions?"

After breaking through the illusion and getting a clear look at Alex's face, a trace of surprise also flickered in Zhang Dongwei's eyes.

In ancient times, limited by human technology, the world was not interconnected. Zhang Dongwei had not seen many Western Region People back in his day, let alone a Saint Awakening Level existence. This left him slightly astonished.

'Western Region People? That tone... He really is an old fossil from a thousand years ago.'

Alex possessed an extremely high IQ; there was almost no language in the world he couldn't speak. He was well-versed in the Donghua Language, and even the entire history of Donghua, speaking it with a flawless accent.

"Outside, on the Donghua Land... is it ruled by the Western Region People now?"

Zhang Dongwei asked with a frown.

"A thousand years have passed. Do you still care about nationalities? In any case, the country you came from has certainly perished. However, the land beneath your feet is still ruled by the descendants of Donghua civilization. As for me, I am from the Starry Sky Country. A thousand years ago, Donghua was once the center of the world. Now, we, the Starry Sky Country, are the undisputed global hegemon."

A smile appeared on Alex's face as he slowly placed his hands on the two short swords at his waist.

Hearing Alex's words, Zhang Dongwei's expression grew slightly more serious. He asked, "So, you're an invader?"

"You can't put it that way. This Immortal Palace was built in such a distant era. It doesn't belong solely to Donghua; it's a treasure for all of humanity."

Alex said with a smile.

VMMMM!!

He now held the two short swords in his hands. He pressed a button on the hilts, and the swords began to produce a violent, low-frequency magnetic field oscillation. The blood-red patterns on the silvery-white blades seemed to glow faintly.

Then, Alex's Life Magnetic Field spread out, enveloping the two short swords in his hands. It seemed to merge with the low-frequency oscillations emanating from them.

VZZT!!

Under the resonance of the short swords, the magnetic fields instantly fused, forming two slender, sword-shaped beams of light about one and a half meters long.

If you were to remove the blades from the short swords, leaving only the hilts, these special longswords would probably look identical to the famous "Light Sabers" from a certain well-known science fiction movie.

This was a human magnetic field amplification Device developed by the Nebula Alliance based on Data related to "Dharma Artifacts." The initial design concept was modeled directly after the appearance of a Light Saber.

However, they later discovered that with only a hilt, it was difficult to focus the human magnetic field. But with a specially made blade, the magnetic field utilization rate was completely different. Thus, the final design took this form.

This type of Light Saber possessed no power on a physical level. However, the magnetic field focused by it was tremendously lethal to living beings. For a Saint Awakening Powerhouse, it was a sharp weapon designed specifically to break through their protective magnetic fields!

This was the power of technology, and it was the root of why the Saint Awakening power of the Starry Sky Country was the strongest in the world.

Life, too, is a form of science.

Undeniably, science is also a path to transcend the ordinary.

And the Starry Sky Country excelled on this path.

"Dharma Artifacts?"

Zhang Dongwei stared at the two Light Sabers, his brow furrowed slightly.

"These are not the 'Dharma Artifacts' of those fellows who call themselves Descendants. This is pure science! You old fossil, the times have changed. One day, our laboratories will decipher the mysteries of the human Life Magnetic Field, and even the mysteries of the human mind and soul. We will lead humanity into its next historical era. Perhaps you can contribute some of your power to this great process."

Alex advanced toward Zhang Dongwei step by step, dual swords in hand.

He was going to capture this special specimen and contribute to his country's technological breakthroughs.

"Science... so this is the Martial Dao of today?"

A look of unconscious disappointment appeared in Zhang Dongwei's eyes.

He could sense the power of the opponent before him. The instruments he held were particularly formidable, even posing a certain degree of threat to him. But he always felt that this kind of power was missing something.

Soon, he recalled some past memories.

It was like books printed with woodblocks—each one exquisitely laid out, with rigorous typesetting. It had to be said, this was a level of perfection that ordinary handwriting could not achieve.

But, compared to the works of true masters, they always felt like they were lacking something.

Just like now, Alex's power was beyond the imagination of ordinary humans. But he was like a mass-produced book from a woodblock press—the script was neat and meticulously proper, but it lacked a certain possibility.

Flaws, much of the time, also imply possibility.

Humans are beings full of flaws, but also full of infinite possibilities.

But science pursues certainty. It pursues axioms, formulas, answers.

"Science may be a powerful path, but unfortunately, it is not the Martial Dao I seek. Besides, no matter how you try to sugarcoat it, you can't hide the fact that you are an invader. There's an old saying in Donghua Country: 'Whoever dares to offend Donghua shall be slain, no matter how far away they are.' Although this is no longer the nation I belonged to, and I can no longer be considered a person, there are some things that must be done when one encounters them."

"So, you will remain here."

Zhang Dongwei said coolly.

"Old fossil, don't you get it? The times have changed. Your era is over!"

Alex kicked off the ground, his figure shooting forward. He held the two Light Sabers in a reverse grip, bringing the hilts together as he spun his body violently.

The Light Sabers in his hands bloomed like a spinning lotus flower. Amplified by the short swords, a powerful magnetic field kicked up a magnetic storm within a twenty-meter radius.

Any living being caught in such a storm would have their Life Magnetic Field completely torn to shreds, thereby losing their life.

However, facing this terrifying magnetic storm, Zhang Dongwei's face was completely calm.

"Have you ever seen a 'Celestial Phenomenon'?"
