Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect-Chapter 124 - 123: 9 Percent

Worried that he might accidentally crash into everyone around, Chen Xuantian also sat on the laboratory floor, not daring to move.

He watched as medical staff and emergency drones swarmed in, trying to pull the guard out of the wall, feeling somewhat guilty for a moment.

"Is... is he alright..."

A sweet female voice answered,

"Concussion, moderate intellectual deficiency, severe motor aphasia, quadriplegia, muscle strength below level 4, erectile dysfunction or complete loss, extreme hearing loss in both ears, severe deformity of the auricle, facial scarring over 60%. Thoracic spine injury leads to severe malunion affecting respiratory function. Neck mobility loss over 75%, affecting breathing and swallowing function. Limb damage resulting in complete loss or dysfunction of both hands...

Assessed as a level 4 disability, discharge recommended."

Chen Xuantian,

"...Sorry."

The other guards just glared at him.

Chen Xuantian sighed helplessly.

He slept for so long he didn’t even notice that his body was completely fine now.

Yes, before entering the cabin, he was a mess, like gel jelly, and after waking up, surprisingly fresh out of the oven, like a Slimer turned into a human, how could anyone not be shocked...

Of course, it’s not completely fine, after all, having been blasted to pieces by the Nine Cities Immortal Thunder and twisted into a pretzel by Red Silk, the old Chen Xuantian would probably have all his bones shattered like meat paste and rushed to the ICU again.

But the current Chen Xuantian is no longer the weak old Chen Xuantian.

He is the Golden Core Chen Xuantian with a remodeled Dao Body.

Yes, because Chen Xuantian and Tie Dan are highly bonded, like the moon in a mirror.

Therefore, although this world has no True Qi, no Immortal Pills, no Kun, as long as the moon has phases, the reflection cast from the water will also alternate between brightness and dimness.

So his current body is the Qi Refining, Refining God, Body Refinement, Triple Turbocharged Divine Skill version, with a perfectly formed Core Dao Body.

So now, if you ask Chen Xuantian to form a hand seal, fly a sword, or teleport, he might not be able to do it. But if you want him to swing his fist the size of a sandbag to crush someone, don’t worry, he guarantees to smash them into tiny pieces of minced meat...

Thus, Chen Xuantian could only helplessly watch the guard, paralyzed like a blob, be carried by an emergency drone straight to the ICU next door.

Then a drone came in, placed down a tray with three dishes and a soup from the cafeteria.

Although he really wasn’t in the mood to eat, Chen Xuantian also felt this body’s extreme craving for carbs, so he reluctantly, under the watchful eyes of a group of guards, ate and drank heartily, wolfing down one bowl after another, until the drone became impatient and brought over the cafeteria’s rice bucket, only then did he feel slightly full.

Then the guards and medical staff seemed to get the order to withdraw, and a drone came over for a video call with Chen Xuantian.

On the other side appeared a masked officer with hidden identity, possibly the same one previously credited with third-class merit.

"Student Chen Xuantian, due to your current special situation, temporary biochemical isolation measures need to be implemented, we hope you understand."

Chen Xuantian looked at the human-shaped bloodstain on the wall and broke out in a sweat,

"Understand, understand..."

The officer nodded,

"Thank you for your understanding and support, thank you for your outstanding achievements and contributions to my project. With higher approval, it’s decided to credit you with third-class merit, but given the current severe international struggle, the construction of the quantum communication network project cannot be delayed..."

Isn’t this segment pre-recorded...

Chen Xuantian had no choice. In a confidential organization, it’s always like this, always repeating processes and protocols, unwilling to say an extra word, and he’s used to it. After all, you can’t leave campus in this mountain ditch casually. Just read, train, and play basketball to pass the time. Since drones can bring him meals, let it be quarantined. It’s just right to calm down and study the Turbo Technique to avoid accidentally slapping passers-by into the walls again...

Because Chen Xuantian also shared Tie Dan’s memories over there, having methods to train in "Gang Fist" and "Dog-shaped Fist," realizing his physical fitness is at the Golden Core level, it was quick to master physical ability.

Just like those Immortal Soldiers who practice Gang Fist, relying on wrestling to control strength from a young age, Chen Xuantian also started with the most basic movements to adapt to his physical strength, comparing with Tie Dan over there.

It’s evident that Chen Xuantian’s Turbo Technique is nowhere near comparable to the original version of Tie Dan’s.

Even if it’s the same car, performing on a race track and buying groceries in the city yield completely different efficiencies. Besides, they are not in the same worldview setting, so it’s naturally impossible to apply the tactical intensity specifically designed for Tie Dan.

Moreover, the two drivers aren’t exactly the same. Even with the same knowledge and experience, at least Chen Xuantian admits he absolutely can’t hack people at sight like Tie Dan can. This is probably the difference of ninety percent overlapping progress and a one percent three hundred boost...

Another thing is that Chen Xuantian could feel his body’s immense consumption, much larger than Tie Dan’s. Just hopping around, running, and moving a bit, he’d get hungry very quickly, a desperate kind of hunger.

Thinking about it carefully, it’s probably because the environments of the two worlds are really different. With no true Qi, essence blood, Immortal Pills, Heavenly Materials Treasures, relying solely on carbs to replenish physical energy is certainly not enough.

Let’s not rigorously convert; the energy density per gram of carbohydrates is about 4 kcal, only a third-thousandth of gasoline. So if Chen Xuantian really wanted to cultivate immortality in the real world to unleash the horsepower of an eight-cylinder sports car, he would at least need a fuel with energy density comparable to gasoline, right?

Why not get some gasoline and try refining oil for cultivation??

Just as Chen Xuantian started to let his mind wander, his isolation was suddenly lifted early. Not because he passed a test or could control his powers, nor had the military found a way to control him.

The Principal returned.

"Sorry, sorry, just happened to go abroad for an international academic exchange conference. Student Chen, you can move freely now. The School Medical Department might ask you to assist in some additional physical tests, it’s up to you, feel free to refuse if you don’t want to, and your meal card limit is lifted, eat as much as you want, it’s a school subsidy for you."

The person came in and took the initiative to shake hands, seemingly not at all afraid of being thrown into the wall, Chen Xuantian was a bit surprised too.

"Oh, oh, thank you, Principal... Can I leave now?"

The Principal opened the door, and there were no guards outside anymore.

"You can leave anytime, play basketball if you want, if you want to take a vacation and go home, I’ll get a helicopter to take you."

Chen Xuantian scratched his head,

"Really? No more experiments?"

The Principal chuckled,

"Student Xuantian, you know, the organization is a collective, and the success or failure of our project entirely depends on time. Therefore, some people may be anxious and aggressive, which might have caused you to misunderstand.

But while time is important, talent is more so. So now we are asking to cooperate with you, not forcing you to comply. If you don’t want to do it, you can quit the project anytime. Return to a normal life."

Chen Xuantian looked at him, then at his hand,

"Can I really return to a normal life?"

The Principal smiled,

"That depends on whether you still want to be an ordinary person or not."

An ordinary person... Of course not.

While everyone is ordinary, who would really be content with being ordinary?

It’s not necessarily about making a lot of money or climbing to some position, but Chen Xuantian indeed wants to stand out and be different.

Otherwise, why read, attend school, join the military, register, or fight to participate in this confidential project, right?

And after these days, experiencing so much, seeing the world of dreams, and witnessing life and death on the sword’s edge.

Chen Xuantian felt more or less, or ’ninety percent’, synchronized with Tie Dan.

An ordinary person, after all, will die, either in this world or that world.

Either die wealthily, or die poorly.

Either die uprightly, or die miserably.

But eventually, all will die.

So Chen Xuantian thought that if one day he were facing death,

entirely unsuccessful, then living such a life would seem a bit unworthy.

But if he could be like Gen Mo of Genzhou, Zhen Zhu of Zhenzhou, Qian Rang of Qianzhou.

Like Huan Tianyuan of Ye Capital.

Like Tie Dan of Guangxia Mountain.

Doing something earth-shattering.

Let the world know the name Chen Xuantian.

Then even in death, it would be worth it.

Although it was just a moment, having figured this out, Chen Xuantian was no longer confused and nodded,

"Let’s finish the project. I’m off to eat. Principal, want to join?"

The Principal smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"Then I won’t be polite, swiping your card, the school will reimburse it."

Dude, just being polite...

Chen Xuantian squinted at him,

"But Principal, you actually attended an international academic exchange? You don’t just teach quantum communication technology, can you just casually go abroad for exchanges?"

The Principal smiled,

"Why not, and it’s reimbursed on public funds, with a private jet. Of course, I wasn’t there to exchange, but to throw the Space Agency’s doctor off the hotel balcony.

If you also want to go, I’ll take you next time if there’s a chance."

Is this even a legitimate academic project...
