The Wu family's backyard.

There was only a pool of black mud left in the house. The tables, chairs and wooden beds in the room were all corroded by the black mud. Standing at the door, one could clearly see the faces inside that were being torn apart.

Zhang Yunwei’s face was also in it.

At this moment, she no longer had the initial madness. Under the desperate biting of these crazy brains, she was also seriously injured. If it weren't for the protection of the "River of Rebirth", she would have died long ago. The nineteen brains that came with her as a dowry into the Wu family were now like drowned dogs, running around in the black mud.

"Although the method is a little unorthodox, the effect is unexpectedly good."

The head of the Wu family stood at the door and observed for a long time. After he was sure that the black mud would not spread outward, he finally let go of his worry.

With the power of the Wu family, investigating Chen Luo's background is just a matter of a word.

Chen Luo did not hide his identity this time. His background in the fairy world was very clean. Apart from doing a job in the Skeleton Sect, there was no record of him anywhere else.

"The new elder of Yuhua Xianmen."

Patriarch Wu muttered to himself, raised his hand to close the wooden door, and continued to repair the formation outside. Darkness enveloped the entire room, and in the dark mud, Zhang Yunwei's wooden face suddenly opened her eyes.

The dead river water surged again, and the sound of "splashing" appeared in the void. In the upper reaches of the tributary, more water poured over.

Guest room.

Chen Luo sat cross-legged.

The spirit energy gathered from all directions and merged into his body. After circulating for a circle, it turned into waste gas and was exhaled from his mouth and nose.

'The second step of the Nanli Immortal Scripture requires the Three Yang Pure Water to be completed.'

In the external brain, the brain that was studying the "Nanli Xianjing" quickly emerged. Chen Luo gave this task to Qiu Xianren to study.

Among the brains he currently possessed, Qiu Xianren was firmly in second place. The Black Snake Demon Saint was even weaker than him. The brains acquired by the Skeleton Sect were considered third tier, and the Corpse Reincarnation Immortal Zhao Qi was fourth tier. The remaining brains were all below the level of True Immortals and were considered ordinary brains.

'The effect of Sanyang Purifying Water is nothing more than purifying the soul, and the effect of 'Daoyan Secret Technique' is even better.'

The brain of the Skeleton Sect leader suddenly appeared. Chen Luo had snatched the brain in front of the Skeleton Sect leader. In order to touch the leader's brain, Chen Luo took a little risk.

"The Daoyan secret technique has hidden dangers. The best way is to use a formation and stack 100,000 immortal crystals to set up a soul gathering formation."

"No, the talisman is faster."

"The alchemy path is the safest."

"Curse is the most appropriate. The 'River of Rebirth' of the Zhang family, an imperial clan, is clearly a cursed immortal weapon."

After clearing his mind, Chen Luo used all the True Immortal brains obtained by the Skeleton Sect. Layers of heat waves surrounded his body, and from a distance it looked like the scorching sun. The Wu family's protective ban lit up automatically, covering the entire room to prevent things from being ignited.

The blood in his body became extremely violent under the influence of this heat. The most exaggerated thing was his brain. His whole head was like the scorching sun, shining brightly. Even his hair stood up, with a tendency to turn into flames.

"Such a big commotion?"

Zhao Qi looked back and found that the room where Chen Luo was in seclusion was filled with heat. The whole person was like a golden Buddha, translucent, and the firelight shone through the window, illuminating the yard as bright as day.

"ban!"

Zhao Qi waved his hand, his palm touching the void, creating a circle of translucent ripples. The immortal power around him was instantly drawn away and gathered into a golden restriction, blocking all the light and heat inside.

Inside the house.

Chen Luo opened his eyes and sensed the changes around him. He subconsciously frowned. He was just studying the plan to break through the second step of the immortal soul, and suddenly found that several parts of his brain became very slow. An unprecedented feeling of fatigue came over him, so he opened his eyes to check and immediately found that the Ice Art on his body had lost its effect.

'Overload?'

The consumption of the brains in the True Immortal Realm exceeded expectations. The Ice Skills learned in the mortal world were like small drops of water to these True Immortal Realm brains and had no effect. A higher level of Ice Skills was required to solve the problem.

"You can go to the Wu family's library and borrow two books."

With Chen Luo's current favor to the Wu family, it is not difficult to borrow the library. Just mention it, and the head of the Wu family will naturally find someone to find the skills he wants.

After calming his brain for a few minutes and easing his own condition a little, Chen Luo closed his eyes and continued to study the second step of the immortal soul breakthrough method.

This time the brain was working much faster.

Soon, he summed up a feasible way, and the aura around him slowly changed as his brain reached a consensus.

No words were spoken that night.

Chen Luo woke up from his retreat and carefully sensed his own condition.

"Is this power? I didn't expect it to be so easy."

Chen Luo stretched out his hand and sensed it, and found that the immortal essence in his body had not changed, but the power of his soul had changed a little. Compared with before, the soul had grown significantly, but the growth rate was not fast. After he stopped practicing, the growth of power also slowed down.

Chen Luo's mind moved, and he immediately summoned three brains from the true fairyland, and assigned them three hundred brains from the lower realm, asking them to abandon all trivial matters and concentrate on cultivating their souls.

The stagnant spiritual power immediately began to grow, and the speed of increase suddenly increased to several times of before.

"According to the description in the Nanli Immortal Scripture, after this soul growth is completed, I will reach the second level of the True Immortal. After that, if I break through again, I will reach the level of the Great Immortal Zhuxie."

Chen Luo estimated his own changes and felt more confident about the upcoming trip to the Zhang family. But before that, he planned to go to the Wu family's library to find two ice-attributed immortal arts.

"The library?"

After hearing Chen Luo's request, the head of the Wu family did not agree immediately, but weighed the pros and cons.

The cultivation method is the foundation of a power. If the main cultivation method is understood by others, the clan members will be targeted when they go out. In serious cases, it may even affect the development of the entire family, and they may be plotted against by people with ulterior motives and die. In the past, there have been many similar examples in the fairy world.

"Fellow Daoist, can you tell me the purpose of going to the library?"

Although the Wu family is now in trouble, the foundation of the family has not been shaken. With the Great Immortal Zhuxie, even if his lineage is submerged by the "River of Rebirth", the other lineage can make a comeback with the support of the Great Immortal Zhuxie and rebuild the family.

"I want to borrow a cold attribute technique, preferably a fairy technique."

Chen Luo did not hide it. After obtaining the skills, one needs to practice, and the subsequent practice still requires resources from the Wu family, so there is no need to hide it.

"If it's just a cold-attributed technique, there won't be any problem."

Patriarch Wu nodded, and his expression softened.

After that, he took Chen Luo to the library.

The location of the library is on the other side of the Wu family, which is also guarded by an immortal array. The power of the immortal array is very strong. Even Chen Luo, who has many true immortal brains, can only see half of the array pattern clearly. The remaining array patterns are all those he has never come into contact with. They are the unique means of the Wu family array master.

"The techniques inside were all collected by our ancestors. Techniques below the True Immortal level can be browsed at will, but techniques above the True Immortal level must be opened with the immortal tools of the clan."

Pushing open the door of the library, the head of the Wu family and Chen Luo introduced the library of the Wu family in detail. The first and second floors were all the techniques below the True Immortal Realm, and the techniques above the True Immortal Realm were placed on the third floor.

Under the leadership of Patriarch Wu, the two quickly reached the third floor.

Here, Chen Luo saw a row of purple jade slips. A rough count showed that there were nearly sixty of them. According to the description of the Wu family head, these jade slips were collected by the Great Immortal Zhuxie. There were nine immortal arts, six exercises, and some miscellaneous notes on cultivation.

"Without the immortal weapon in my clan, I can't exchange it again. But I can copy a copy of the skills I exchanged before and give it to Fellow Daoist Chen."

Patriarch Wu walked to the end of the bookshelf and took out a purple jade slip. When his palm touched the jade slip, the restrictions in the library lit up, and a milky white light flew out from the token on Patriarch Wu's waist and merged into the restrictions on the top of the tower.

"I have practiced the 'Frost Descent' magic before. After it is perfected, it can reverse the four seasons and rewrite the celestial phenomena. It is the top-level type of cold-attributed magic and should be able to meet your requirements."

The head of the Wu family took out a blank jade slip from his storage bag and began to copy the magic arts on the jade slip openly.

The restrictions of the library are inanimate objects, and only control the things on the bookshelves. The parts outside the bookshelves were previously managed by the Wu family themselves. Before Wu Ling's accident, there was an elder guarding the entrance of the library. The elder guarding the entrance was a powerful person in the true fairyland. Ordinary thieves could not escape his eyes, let alone copy the skills openly.

"Thank you very much."

After taking the magic technique, Chen Luo thanked him.

With this magic, he would not have to worry about the problem of "overload" when he got a new brain later. As long as his soul could bear it, he could collect brains indefinitely. Until he finally controlled everything and everything was controlled by his heart.

After acquiring the immortal arts, Chen Luo began a new round of seclusion.

Apart from going to the backyard to check on Wu Ling's condition every day, he spent the rest of his time practicing immortal arts.

Patriarch Wu continued to repair the formation.

Zhao Qi went outside to inquire about the movements of the Zhang family, the imperial clan. As the most useful puppet under Chen Luo, Zhao Qi could be said to be hardworking and willing to work. With his assistance, Chen Luo saved a lot of time. He was able to complete the second step of the True Immortal practice so quickly, which was inseparable from Zhao Qi's help.

Half a month passed like this.

On this day, a communication talisman suddenly flew in from outside.

"Brother Chen, there is a problem in the backyard again."

It was the voice of the head of the Wu family. (End of this chapter)
