Chapter 159: Mountain City Arrangement

Chen Luo waited at the entrance of the tomb for three days.

Three days later, he received a letter from his junior sister Xie Shuang. Like Du Jian, Xie Shuang also chose to stay. Everyone has his own path, and not everyone can give up everything to pursue the immortal path.

"I'm leaving."

Chen Luo crushed the letter in his hand into powder with one hand, then returned to the channel without hesitation, activated the teleportation array and returned to the world of immortal cultivation.

Snap

After the familiar feeling of dizziness, a slight cracking sound was heard from behind.

Chen Luo looked back and found that the color of the teleportation array engraved inside the cave had dimmed, which meant that the teleportation array was completely scrapped.

'The array pattern is broken, and the array is scrapped.'

The mummy brain in my mind gave feedback. After automatically integrating into the second brain, the activity of the mummy brain increased significantly, and the feedback given when calling it became clearer.

'There's no going back.'

Chen Luo touched the ground with his hand and tried to call upon the brain of his newly acquired Jindan master, and surprisingly got a feedback.

'The teleport point is offset and the location is lost.'

The teleportation point is offset? Chen Luo had some guesses in his mind, looked at the teleportation array under his feet with regret, and walked out of the cave alone.

This time when I went back, I was able to finish a lot of things and put an end to a lot of causes and effects.

After leaving the cave, Chen Luo set up a formation at the entrance of the cave again. With the materials he had in hand and his strength in the foundation-building stage, the concealment method he set up was much stronger than the last time.

"hidden!"

The spiritual power in his hand struck the ground. The cave completely disappeared, and the original entrance was covered. This place became an inconspicuous thorn bush. Unless a special formation master came to study it, it would be impossible to find it.

Although the teleportation array in the cave has been abandoned, this place still has a lot of value. When my cultivation level improves in the future, I can come back and try to repair it.

After hiding in the cave, Chen Luo did not stay any longer.

Head west along the mountain.

In his mind, the map of She Country that Wu Wei Zhenren told him emerged. Going south is the Forbidden Mountains, which are full of barbarians and have almost no spiritual energy. People in the Seven Kingdoms call it a wild land. Going west is the evil cultivation land that Wu Wei Zhenren told him about, and that place is his goal.

The corpse of the Jindan cultivator that his master Changqing Zhenren sent him also needs to be refined. The first step is to find a dangerous place to "raise" the corpse.

The simple corpse-refining techniques that I learned from Brother Ganshi were enough. More advanced corpse-refining techniques could only be learned in Yangshi Sect. Yangshi Sect, which had a Jindan cultivator, was not a suitable place for Chen Luo. The Seven Kingdoms were generally the same. There was a lack of third-order spiritual veins, and no Jindan cultivators could be raised. The three Jindan ancestors in the Seven Kingdoms had all returned from outside. Moreover, Yangshi Sect was different from Shenhu Xianmen. There were only so many people in this closed sect. He, a foundation-building cultivator, would be too conspicuous if he went there. If he was unlucky, he might directly alarm the leader of Yangshi Sect.

"First, find a place to raise the evil spirits and cultivate the instincts of the corpse evil spirits."

The old ghost's corpse took nearly twenty years to cultivate, and it reached a level close to the iron corpse of the foundation-building period. Although the body of the Jindan stage in his hand has a good foundation, it will take at least ten years to be initially formed, and it will take more effort to form combat power.

Chen Luo continued to move westward along the mountain.

Three days later.

The surrounding land became more and more unfamiliar, the mountains became steeper, and the people's clothing changed significantly. Some mountain people liked to apply medicine on their faces to protect themselves from poisonous insects, and they began to wear strange clothes. The sound of their voices was also very different from that in the Kamikaze area.

After arriving here, Chen Luo did not continue flying.

If we continue to go west, we will leave the territory of She State, and we will no longer be able to fly with swords as recklessly as we do within the territory of She State.

Chen Luo spent half a day to find a relatively secluded mountain city and planned to rest here. Out of caution, he used his spiritual sense to scan the entire mountain city, and only felt relieved after confirming that there were no immortal cultivators here.

After entering the mountain city, Chen Luo spent some money and found a secluded inn to stay in.

In the room.

Chen Luo took out everything he had harvested during this period and began to count them one by one.

First, the things in the Yue Tomb were taken out. There weren't many things, but each one was very precious. Inside the soul-sealing box, the root was lying quietly. Even after it was taken out of the Yue Tomb, this section of root had not changed at all.

"Spiritual plant husbands are the best at this. When there is a chance in the future, I will borrow a few brains from them and try it out."

A thought flashed through Chen Luo's mind, and then he put the Soul Sealing Box away again.

This thing must be kept well. The elixir that allowed Master Changqing and others to break through in such a spiritual place as the Yue Kingdom's Tomb must be extraordinary. It might even be a peerless treasure.

The second gift was the corpse of the Jindan stage, which was still in the corpse bag. This bag was given to him by the old corpse ghost. Thinking of this old friend, Chen Luo couldn't help but feel a little emotional. I don't know what happened to the old corpse brother. The evil spirit that possessed him was very strange. Even now, Chen Luo is not 100% sure to deal with it. Judging from the way the old corpse ghost left that day, he should have his own ideas. I hope he can survive this disaster.

After counting these things, Chen Luo took out another storage bag.

The things in this bag were all sorted out by him when he left Shenhu Xianmen and went to Yaowang Peak. Most of them were contributed by Elder An, the master of Yaowang Peak. In addition, there were some harvests from Guoshan County, such as cabbage and radishes dug from the medicine garden, and the chessboard stone table in the yard.

"Huh? This alchemy furnace?"

Chen Luo just tidied it up simply, and when his spiritual sense swept across the alchemy furnace, he suddenly stopped.

With a thought, he took the alchemy furnace out of the storage bag.

This alchemy furnace was in the alchemy room of Elder An of Yaowang Peak. He had pried up the floor just to take this thing away. Now, after a closer look, he found that this alchemy furnace was indeed not an ordinary item. There was a medicinal fragrance surrounding it. It was actually a rare second-level alchemy furnace. It had been refining medicine for at least three hundred years, otherwise it would not have such a strong medicinal fragrance.

This is really valuable!

Alchemy furnaces are not like magic weapons. A good alchemy furnace needs time to maintain. A good alchemy furnace can improve the alchemy rate of an alchemist by several levels, and the probability of producing top-quality elixirs will also be greatly increased.

As the level of cultivation improves, the difficulty of refining high-level elixirs will increase dramatically. Starting from the foundation-building stage, anything that can increase the success rate of elixirs will be in short supply.

"Elder An, you are a good man."

Chen Danshi was in a very good mood. Recently, he was going to start refining some second-level pills. He was originally thinking that the first-level pill furnace in his hand was not enough, but he didn't expect to have a replacement so soon. I can only say that they are worthy of being fellow disciples. This person is so generous!

After sorting out his belongings, Chen Luo began to sort out his own strengths.

"With the addition of the external brain, I now have all seven attributes of my spiritual roots. I have mastered seven kinds of magical powers and several minor techniques. Among the seven major magical powers, the main spiritual technique is the most powerful, followed by the wind control technique, and the five elements magical power is at the same level."

These are the methods we have mastered at present, and the rest depends on the level of cultivation.

After advancing to the foundation building stage, the one hundred spiritual snakes in Chen Luo's body gathered into a green python, and the spiritual power attribute also became the mana that only foundation building cultivators have. The magical power released by the foundation building mana is very powerful, but the consumption is also very large. If he exerts his full strength, he can release up to four magical powers, and the balance of mana in his body will be broken, and the recovery will slowly fail to keep up with the consumption.

"So we must master some means of consumption. Corpse refining is a good choice. There are also formations, magic tools, etc. It's time to replenish them."

Chen Luo sorted out the methods he currently possessed and continued to deduce the scenarios of fighting with the foundation-building cultivators of the same level.

"When fighting the enemy, you should risk everything. No matter how many evil spirits there are, I will kill them with one sword."

'The main focus should be on consumption. Wood-attributed mana lasts the longest. When fighting with the same level, do not be afraid of consumption. As long as you drag the enemy's mana out, you can win without fighting.'

"When you encounter danger, you should take the initiative to avoid it and escape with the wind control technique. There is a saying that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall."

More than thirty foundation-building brains all gave feedback. Each brain thought about the scenario of fighting with cultivators of the same level from its own perspective, and each gave a variety of different response plans.

Chen Luo summarized and found that these concepts have one thing in common, which is "using one's own strengths to counter the enemy's weaknesses."

These ideas are not wrong, but they all have limitations.

Because the enemy cannot always follow your thinking, there will always be times when the environment is not favorable to them.

For example, if a foundation-building brain that is good at using the "wind control technique" encounters a cultivator of the same level who is even stronger in the wind control technique, all his advantages will disappear and he will instantly be at an absolute disadvantage. The same is true for the sword-building brain. If he fails to kill the enemy with one sword, will he just wait to die?

Chen Luo called upon the only Jindan cultivator's brain in the external brain.

'Simplify your magical powers and save mana.'

From the perspective of a Jindan cultivator, he had a completely different perception. When he watched the battle between people of the same level, inspiration kept coming to his mind. The people of the same level that he originally thought were difficult to deal with now didn't seem to be that powerful.

He called upon the mummy's brain again.

'Crush the opponent with spiritual consciousness and erase the opponent's memory with spiritual soul technique.'

The feedback was very simple and crude, and Chen Luo simply skipped it.

It doesn't work.

It was hard to understand. It was not practical for him at this stage. He didn't know how to do the first step of spiritual consciousness crushing. So far, he had not practiced any magical powers related to spiritual consciousness. The subsequent erasing of memory was even more complicated. The magical powers involved seemed to be beyond the scope of foundation-building cultivators.

After ignoring the advice of the mummy brain, Chen Luo began to rethink the plan.

Based on all the ideas of the external brains, he came up with a method that suited him, which was to let these brains simplify the magical powers they were best at. Then he would combine these compound magical powers and use the advantages of each of them to deal with enemies in different situations. In this way, he would be the most perfect magic cultivator, capable of dealing with all kinds of enemies!

"Just do it!"

Chen Luo began to regard the cultivators of the same level as his imaginary enemies, and began to optimize his seven magical powers step by step. More than 30 foundation-building brains all became active.

The different perspectives of cognition made his mind extremely active. With the help of the 'brains of the same level', 'they' saw the shortcomings that were not seen before, and complemented each other and gradually improved. The brain in the Jindan stage can give some higher-level suggestions from time to time, making the completion of the supernatural power higher.

As for the remaining one hundred or so Qi Refining Realm brains, they are of no use now and can only stand there and stare blankly, unable to give any decent suggestions.

But that's not all. The brain of the casual cultivator Wan Ming grew in this process. Along with Chen Luo's breakthrough, the perspective of the casual cultivator Wan Ming's brain was also upgraded to the foundation-building level. He began to give some unique ideas. Although they were not very useful, they were not completely eliminated.
