Chen Luo discovered he could scavenge the minds of the dead.
So he went to a graveyard and scavenge the brain of a deceased Great Emperor, figuring he’d borrow it for a bit.
While other...
Chapter 144 Solution (asking for monthly ticket)
"Master."
Chen Luo bowed quickly, and when he saw Master Wuwei again, he still felt that he was unfathomable.
"I didn't expect you to be the first one back."
Master Wuwei's voice was as calm as before. Compared with a few years ago, his aura was stronger, which meant that his cultivation was more profound.
"I have reached the thirteenth level of Qi Refining. I was not wrong about you."
Wuwei Zhenren saw Chen Luo's current state, but when his eyes passed through his brows, he paused for a moment. Unlike others, Wuwei Zhenren's main practice was the "Heart Demon Technique", which was the most sensitive to the power of evil magic.
"Guoshan County's evil curse, you are really lucky"
Chen Luo was delighted when he heard what Master Wuwei said.
"Please Master, help me get rid of this evil."
With ready-made resources, Chen Luo was naturally not polite at all. This was also the biggest confidence of the sect disciples. They would not be like the independent cultivators, who could only handle things on their own when they encountered problems. The unlucky ones might just fail because of such a small matter.
"Do you know why Guoshan County was not blocked by us?"
Wuwei Zhenren raised his hand and told him about Guoshan County. As the master of Wudao Peak, he naturally knew about this forbidden place jointly sealed by the three sects.
“Because it can’t be sealed.”
Can’t seal it?
This was the first time Chen Luo heard of this statement, which was very different from the rumors outside.
"Guoshan County is a very special place. Try not to go there unless it is necessary."
After a few simple reminders, Master Wuwei stopped talking about this topic and then turned his attention to Chen Luo.
"You are right not to blindly build your foundation. As casual cultivators, you have limited vision and can only see the foundation. But building the foundation is just the beginning on the road to immortality. You have a rare hidden physique and there is a high chance that you will be able to reach the Dan stage in the future. I suggest that before building your foundation, you carefully choose your own path and condense the foundation of the avenue that suits you best."
As he spoke, Master Wuwei waved his hand and a white token flew out from his hand.
"This is the identity of an inner sect disciple. Take this and go to Shenhu Peak to read the inner sect books. I will advance the merits for you. You can return it to me after you have established your foundation."
"Thank you, Master."
Chen Luo accepted the token. Although his master, Wuwei Zhenren, was not very responsible to most of his disciples, he was still very good to the disciples he recognized.
The so-called return of merits after foundation building is just a casual remark. Can the speed at which foundation building cultivators earn merits be compared with that of Qi refining cultivators?
"As for the curse on you."
After explaining the matters related to cultivation, Zhenren Wuwei's gaze fell on Chen Luo's brows again. His gaze penetrated his body and saw the twisted black air inside.
Faintly, I seemed to see a three-inch black straw man.
When Master Wuwei looked over, the straw man moved strangely, and its scarlet eyes glared at him fiercely, as if it wanted to expel Master Wuwei's spiritual power.
"The Soul Curse is indeed a bit troublesome. But who gave you the courage to bully my disciples?"
Wu Wei Zhenren raised his hand, and a gust of wind blew up in the hall, and gray and white energy gathered at his fingertips. The paintings around him seemed to come alive at this moment, and the sound of a woman laughing and playing could be heard faintly in his ears.
Before Chen Luo could come to his senses, Master Wuwei suddenly raised his hand, and his index finger, like a beam of light, tapped on his forehead.
The power of black and white penetrated into it and instantly touched the scarecrow's forehead.
Snap!
It seemed as if something was shattered by this finger.
In an instant, Chen Luo felt as if his head was hit by a blunt object, and blood flowed out of his ears, nose, mouth and eyes.
Fortunately, this force came quickly and went away quickly.
It soon disappeared and turned into a warm current, flowing back into his body.
Instantly, Chen Luo felt his body lighten, and the shackles on his body were forcibly broken by another force. The warm power spread from his brows, and he felt happy, and the power of his soul was cheering. The power that had been eroded by the evil curse was greatly improved after the shackles were broken.
The dilemma that the independent cultivators from the outside world could not solve was solved on the first day of returning to the sect.
"alright."
Wuwei Zhenren retracted his index finger, and the power in the hall slowly subsided. The swaying scroll on the wall calmed down, as if everything before was just an illusion.
"Go ahead and prepare for foundation building. The resources needed for foundation building can be exchanged inside the sect. It's just a waste of time."
After doing all this, Master Wuwei gathered his strength, closed his eyes, and returned to his previous state.
"Thank you, Master! I will take my leave now."
Chen Luo bowed and then walked out.
As the door closed, layers of mist rose in the hall, and hazy figures walked out of the scroll. A floating woman in gauze, dragging a long black mist, circled behind Master Wuwei, put her hands on his left shoulder, crossed her left arm through his neck and hugged him from behind, resting her chin on his shoulder, looking in the direction of the closing door with a pair of watery eyes, and spoke faintly.
"This disciple of yours is very interesting."
Taoist Wuwei ignored her and just spread out his palms.
In his palm, a three-inch straw man appeared at some point. This straw man was the curse that the evil cultivator had cast on Chen Luo when he was building his foundation, but he had taken it out.
"Guoshan County"
Master Wuwei was muttering about this place, and many things from the past came to his mind.
Chen Luo didn't know what happened next.
After the evil curse was taken out, he prepared to go to Shenhu Peak to have a look. As the main peak of Shenhu Xianmen, the collection of books there can only be read by inner disciples. If Chen Luo wants to find a foundation-building path that suits him, the inheritance of the skills there is essential.
'The success rate of foundation building is 80%, the possibility of forming a pill is 40%, and the success rate of forming an infant is zero.'
Inside the mind, the mummy's brain gave feedback again.
"The chance of building a foundation has increased, but there is still no change in forming a pill and condensing an infant." Chen Luo sensed the changes in his body and had a clearer understanding of the 'path' that Master Wuwei talked about.
The only thing that casual cultivators focus on is building their foundation, and they don’t even consider the subsequent paths, because they don’t have the energy or the strength to consider it.
Standing on the "shoulders" of the Shenhu Xianmen, Chen Luo naturally did not want to be as blind as a casual cultivator. With the help of the mummy's brain, he felt that he could set his goals a little higher.
For example, become an immortal first.
After descending Wudao Peak, Chen Luo walked towards the first main peak, Shenhu Peak.
Walking in the sect, he could clearly feel that there were fewer people in the sect. He hadn't seen two people along the way, especially the Beast Taming Peak, which was once a popular peak. Because of the rebellion of the peak master, Elder Ke, the entire peak is now deserted. When passing by the entrance, Chen Luo stopped and took a few more glances.
"There are not many people on the Beast Taming Peak now? Does this mean that there is no one guarding the back mountain?"
Chen Luo's mind became active.
When he first joined the sect, he wanted to go to the back mountains of other peaks to help guard their tombs, but no one gave him the chance at that time, and he was blasted down the mountain as soon as he got there. Now the Immortal Sect is in ruins, and it is a heavy blow to the sect, but for Chen Luo, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
After passing the Beast Taming Peak, Chen Luo went to the Star Peak and Medicine King Peak and found that there were very few people.
As he was walking, a figure came towards him.
Chen Luo stopped and took a look. He felt that the man looked familiar. He seemed to be someone who had joined the sect with him, but he could no longer remember his name. The other party obviously did not remember him either. He passed by him without even glancing at him.
Arriving at the main peak, Shenhu Peak, Chen Luo easily passed the next level with the identity token of an inner disciple.
He arrived at the library without any obstruction. The disciple in charge of collecting the books deducted his merits and then let him in.
Library.
Chen Luo stood at the door. Compared with the library at Wudao Peak, the library at Shenhu Peak was obviously larger, and one could hardly see the end at a glance.
The secret techniques were also stored separately. Chen Luo walked to a bookshelf on the left and pulled out a booklet at random.
'The art of throwing beans.'
Chen Luo was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he could pick up a magical skill casually. In Wudao Peak, this level of magical power could only be mastered by the peak master Wuwei Zhenren, but here it was placed casually.
Looking along the bookshelf, Chen Luo found that there were more than twenty similar bookshelves. If every bookshelf contained this level of skills, then the main peak would have at least two hundred kinds of magical skills.
“It’s worthy of being the main peak.”
Chen Luo put down the "Bean Scattering Technique" and continued to look through other books. There were only corresponding introductions on the bookshelf. If you want to learn real magical powers, you must spend merit to buy the jade slips of the skills.
The rules of the immortal sect have never changed.
After reading all the magical powers, Chen Luo chose five magical powers with the five elements. Now he had his master Wuwei Zhenren to help him pay for it, wouldn't it be a waste of his master's hard work if he didn't use them?
After reading the five magical powers, Chen Luo suddenly had an epiphany. In the external brain, the five five-element foundation-building brains were working rapidly. With the help of their perspectives, an unprecedented sense of familiarity came to his mind, as if he had "learned" these magical powers a long time ago. This feeling allowed Chen Luo to quickly master these magical powers and be able to use them proficiently.
