I Borrowed the Great Emperor’s Brain

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 1061 What is Immortality

"We still need to go to the ancestral temple."

An idea flashed through Chen Luo's mind. In the Zhang family's ancestral hall, there was a backup plan left by Zhang Chengdao. After borrowing Zhang Chengdao's brain, Chen Luo recalled everything.

Now, the aura in his body is growing every moment.

This way of growth is completely different from that of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor.

It was more like a domineering absorption. In just a few moments, his spiritual power had increased significantly, and he was about to break through to the fourth level of the True Immortal.

If he could get the resources in the ancestral temple, Chen Luo believed that he could definitely go further. At that time, with the help of the imperial weapon "River of Rebirth", he could go to the Immortal Court to find the body of the Universal Immortal Emperor. With the three great Immortal Emperors, he didn't believe that anyone could stop his "way".

call out!

A black light streaked across the sky.

Wherever it passed, all the river water retreated. The floating corpses in the river all shrank back after sensing this familiar breath.

"Zhang Chengdao?!"

At the bottom of the river, Zhang Yunwei looked at Chen Luo flying over with shock on her face, feeling that all her plans had become a joke.

In front of Zhang Chengdao, the ritualist, she was like a domesticated pet, with no ability to resist. These were the powers that Zhang Chengdao had implanted into the immortal weapon when he was refining it. It could be said that the 'River of Rebirth' was a part of Zhang Chengdao, an extension of him.

Buzz!!

Chen Luo missed a step and appeared above the ancestral temple.

"who!"

The three old men in the ancestral temple stood up at the same time, and layers of fairy light bloomed from them. But the next moment, the three of them were all frozen in place. A huge hand that covered the sky and the sun fell from above, taking in the ancestral temple and the river below.

Boom! !

The house collapsed and all restrictions lost their effect.

The big hand closed, and the ancestral temple shrank rapidly. Chen Luo's transformed big hand pinched it into a small ball and put it into his sleeve.

The three flower-backed turtles following behind felt their scalps tingling.

This is the Zhang family, the imperial clan, the Immortal Emperor family!

The cave was full of restrictions left by the Immortal Emperor. They had to be careful every step they took. Even if they used the power of the immortals, they would be rejected by the cave. Only the bloodline of the Zhang family could borrow power here without restraint. This was why Zhang Diyi chose to take action directly when he saw this group of outsiders.

A huge deep pit remained in place, and the surrounding river water was constantly pouring into the pit.

roar!!

A black aura broke through the water and rushed towards Chen Luo.

This was a monster similar to an earth dragon, with black scales all over its body. The moment it pounced on him, Chen Luo smelled a strong sour and stinky odor.

Bang!

A soul flag swept across and hit the earth dragon head-on.

Green blood splashed everywhere, and the headless corpse was captured by Chen Luo before it fell. An orange-red demon pill flew out from the broken wound of the earth dragon.

After losing the demon pill, the earth dragon's body withered visibly, and when it fell to the river, only a piece of skin was left.

"Is this the Dark Pill?"

Looking at the demon pill in his hand, a layer of pale white flame appeared on Chen Luo's palm. Under the burning of this flame, a layer of green mist emerged from the demon pill. This layer of mist seemed to have its own consciousness. After leaving the demon pill, it turned into a wisp of smoke and drilled into Chen Luo's nasal cavity.

When the mist entered Chen Luo's body, the way his spiritual power circulated suddenly changed.

Ghost Scripture of the Netherworld.

This was the martial arts technique that Zhang Chengdao used during his lifetime.

The demon pill recorded Zhang Chengdao's practice method and the soul power he left behind before his death. After absorbing this soul power, Zhang Chengdao's brain became more active, and a new consciousness emerged in Chen Luo's body.

Resurrection!

This is the method left by the Zhang family's ancestor.

If other people came, they might really follow his path and become the carrier of resurrection. It was a pity that besides Zhang Chengdao, there was another Immortal Emperor of the same level in Chen Luo. Zhang Chengdao's consciousness had just taken shape when it was crushed to pieces by another force.

After losing consciousness, the remaining spiritual power turned into pure power and merged into Chen Luo's soul.

'Life span!'

The power of his soul was infinitely enhanced. At this moment, Chen Luo saw an illusory long river. All living beings were in this long river, including himself.

These creatures are strong and weak, the weak ones are like ants, and the strong ones are like dragons.

But no matter whether they are whales or dragons, they are all part of the river, with a large number of chains wrapped around them. These chains bind them tightly and carry them downstream.

At the end of the long river is a black void, and below is a grayish-white world. From a distance, it looks like a corner is missing.

That was the underworld, and the missing corner was exactly what was cut off by Zhang Chengdao.

Chen Luo had heard of the underworld a long time ago. When the Immortal Court was at its peak, it had attacked the underworld. But he never knew where the underworld was. At this moment, he saw it. It was the end of all life. If one cannot jump out of the long river of life, life will eventually be taken to the underworld.

True immortals are no exception.

Snap!

Chen Luo woke up in the long river, and cracks appeared on the chains on his body. The immortal soul after the promotion was like a vegetative person who woke up. He removed the chains on his body and struggled to walk towards the shore. Behind him, countless golden chains were lifted up by him and collapsed into a straight line.

Crash.

The river was rushing, trying to carry him back into the water.

But Chen Luo's foundation was extremely solid, and the rush of the river water only made him pause for a moment. After he adapted, he continued to walk towards the shore.

"go back!!"

A deep voice appeared in Chen Luo's mind, trying to drive him back.

The invisible force made him feel dazed and his head felt like it had been hit hard. The chains behind him sent a huge force, trying to drag him back.

"Cut off the worldly desires!"

"Let's end all grudges and hatreds!"

Two thoughts appeared in his mind like a huge bell, instantly dispelling all distracting thoughts. Two translucent long swords appeared behind him.

clang!!

Sparks flew.

The two chains broke on the spot.

Without the pulling force, Chen Luo's body became lighter and his speed increased a lot. But at this time, dozens of chains emerged from the river.

'Joy, anger, sorrow, happiness'

Thoughts one after another emerged in Chen Luo's mind.

One after another, the True Immortal-level brains became active and began to help him cut the chains behind him. The long swords that these thoughts transformed into were not as good as the first two, but they were more numerous.

Ding ding dong!

The long sword kept slashing at the chains, sparks flying everywhere. Chains were cut off one after another, and the obstacles wrapped around Chen Luo became fewer and fewer. His steps became faster and faster, and the scouring of the river could no longer affect him.

"Brother! Are you really leaving?"

"Disciple, if you leave here, you will never be able to come back."

"Xiao Luo, Uncle San is still waiting to see you get married."

Familiar voices rang in Chen Luo's ears one after another, and countless images flashed through Chen Luo's mind. At this moment, a sudden enlightenment arose in his heart.

Why immortality?

The continuation of memory is immortality. (End of this chapter)
