Lost in Liancheng, I Use Chemistry to Master Divine Arts!

Ling Xiao, a graduate student in chemistry, is caught in a landslide during a field expedition. When he wakes up, he discovers he has transmigrated into an ancient wuxia world. Worse still, the only thing he brought with him is a hiking pack filled with chemical reagents and lab equipment.

In a world where human life is cheap and people draw their blades at the slightest provocation, Ling Xiao, who can’t fight his way out of a paper bag, has only his brain and the “bottles and jars” in his pack to rely on.

When people in the martial world tremble at the mention of the deadly “Golden Wave Xun Flower,” Ling Xiao analyzes its alkaloids and successfully makes an antidote.

When the Blood Saber Patriarch’s Blood Saber technique is described as a supernatural marvel, Ling Xiao discovers that the so-called “blade aura” is just high-voltage static electricity produced by friction between special minerals in the dry plateau climate. He grabs a Leyden jar and lets the Blood Saber Patriarch experience “Thunder God, help me!” firsthand.

When everyone goes mad searching for a treasure coated in deadly poison, Ling Xiao analyzes the soil and draws the most accurate treasure map possible.

Can the Divine Illumination Scripture really bring the dead back to life and restore flesh to bare bones? Ling Xiao discovers it merely activates the body’s “suspended animation” state. He can do the same with adrenaline!

Di Yun: “Brother Ling, why is your martial arts so bizarre?”

Ling Xiao smiles and waves the test tube in his hand. “This isn’t martial arts. It’s science. Knowledge is power!”

This is the legend of a science nerd who uses chemistry, physics, and biology to gain an overwhelming edge in the treacherous martial world of The Sword of the City of Zhen, builds up his own power and advances technology, and ultimately becomes a legendary “Science Martial God”!
