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...
Crash!!
Chen Luo climbed out of the pool. Bitter cold wind kept blowing from all around, and even with his current level of cultivation he could still feel a bit of cold.
'The calamity energy is released, and this is the opportunity to break free from the calamity.'
This was the feedback that Immortal Emperor Changqing gave Chen Luo after he had explored the Reincarnation Pool. After confirming this, Chen Luo decisively jumped into the Reincarnation Pool.
For Chen Luo, becoming an emperor is above everything else.
As long as he can break through the calamity, he can become an Immortal Emperor and condense his own path.
Zhang Chengdao was searching for the breath of "Six Paths of Reincarnation" the whole time, but unfortunately, until he climbed out of the pool, he did not find the so-called "Six Paths of Reincarnation". There was only this uninhabited cave with a dozen unknown corpses beside it.
"Didn't follow in?"
Chen Luo looked back and saw that the water in the pool was only as big as a wellhead.
The reincarnation pond in heaven is like an entrance, connecting to the cave on this side.
Long Jun did not follow. Chen Luo originally wanted to help this man, but now it seems that he saved a lot of effort. Everyone has their own choices. Long Jun has no relationship with him, so it is understandable that he does not trust him on the matter of the reincarnation pond.
Retracting his spiritual consciousness, Chen Luo walked slowly along the black cave.
The 'opportunity' sensed by the Immortal Emperor Changqing was very obvious. Apart from Zhang Chengdao's attention being focused on the 'Six Paths of Reincarnation', the brain of the Immortal Emperor Huanyu also reacted. Even Chen Luo himself saw a ray of immortal light.
The passage was very empty, and the surrounding environment was very similar to an abandoned mine, with no end in sight.
Chen Luo moved forward cautiously, and his footsteps echoed in the mine.
After about a cup of tea, changes occurred within the range of the immortal sense. A row of dried corpses were hung on the rotten wooden racks by the wall. The surface of these corpses emitted a light green fluorescence, and tiny poisonous insects surrounded the corpses, illuminating the area.
"What kind of insect is this?"
The insect cultivator in the external brain was unable to recognize this kind of insect.
Stopping his steps, Chen Luo took out the soul-hosting insect from the cave gourd. After not using it for a while, the insect had grown fatter.
"Let's fix it."
The spiritual spell lit up, and the soul-parasitic insect instantly turned into light and flew towards the row of light green corpses.
Dongdong
Under the influence of the soul-parasitic insect, the corpses on the wooden racks fell down one after another like dried fish, hitting the ground and splashing large amounts of dust.
After a moment, the soul-parasitic insect flew back.
The creature was fatter than before, but Chen Luo ignored it. After confirming that there were no green poisonous insects left, he took the soul-parasitic insect back.
After walking forward for a while, the dark cave seemed to have no end. Just when Chen Luo was getting impatient and hesitating whether to use the 'River of Rebirth' to fill the cave, a little light suddenly appeared in front of him.
That little bit of light was like a firefly, suspended in the air, flickering.
'Opportunity.'
'Robbery Gu.'
Two thoughts suddenly flashed through the external brain. The first thought was the Immortal Emperor Changqing, and the second thought was the Immortal Qiu!
This external brain, which had been almost ignored by Chen Luo, suddenly popped up.
As Chen Luo's cultivation level improved, Qiu Xianren had not appeared for a long time. This true immortal who fled the fairyland to the lower world for refuge and was later killed by his disciples, hid an unknown secret.
'Jie Qi Gu' is the forgotten secret.
If Chen Luo had not seen the 'Calamity Gu' here, Qiu Xianren's brain might never have remembered this.
Chen Luo quickened his pace and soon arrived at the area where the Jie Qi Gu was.
This is an oval area, with a large number of wooden boxes stacked on both sides of the cave, and a row of well-arranged corpses stacked against the wall. The light green poisonous insects encountered at the intersection before are everywhere here. The green fluorescence illuminates the entire area.
"Evil ghost road?"
Stopping, Chen Luo saw three twisted ancient characters on the stone wall next to him. Zhang Chengdao knew these characters. He had entered the underworld before and specialized in studying the inheritance related to the underworld.
Looking at the ruined cave and the green poisonous insect in front of him, Chen Luo frowned subconsciously.
He originally thought that the "Six Paths of Reincarnation" was a legend, but he didn't expect that there was such a place here. However, this "Hungry Ghost Path" was completely different from the evil ghost path he imagined.
Buzz!
The bright light of the Jieqi Gu appeared again.
The huge insect body was like a torch, emitting a large amount of mist. If you look closely, you will find that all the mist is poisonous insects.
"If this is the realm of hungry ghosts, does that mean there are other six realms ahead, such as the realm of Asuras and the realm of animals?"
Chen Luo looked towards the area farther away in the cave.
He suspected that this passage was connected from beginning to end, forming a circle. There was an elliptical space every other area, a total of six.
Each space corresponds to a 'Tao'.
Buzz!!
The breath that leaked out of the robbery gas Gu began to flow back, and the surrounding space became illusory.
"Born to eat disasters, I see."
Looking at the Calamity Qi Gu flapping its wings, Chen Luo instantly understood the source of the "opportunity".
The calamity gas Gu is born from the calamity and only exists during the heavenly calamity.
As one of the top ten top-level poisonous insects, the number of the Tribulation Qi Gu is extremely rare. Most people have only heard of the name of the Tribulation Qi Gu. Even the three old monsters in the Emperor Realm, including the Changqing Immortal Emperor, have never seen this kind of poisonous insect.
Immortal Qiu didn't know where he had seen the Calamity Qi Gu, but he actually recognized the origin of this insect.
Chen Luo took out all the strange insects from the Dongtian Gourd.
The cold air of the silver-winged centipede spread into the cave, and soon froze the ground into a frosty white. The centipede flapped its wings and flew in with a whoosh. The life-borrowing Gu and the soul-sending Gu crawled on the edge of the stone wall, and were not as reckless as the silver-winged centipede. Only the phantom god Gu flew over directly after revealing its true form.
As the sixth-ranked top-level strange insect, the ferocity of the Illusion God Gu can be imagined. It was refined into a clone by Chen Luo, otherwise ordinary Gu insects would immediately become its food as long as they approached its body.
With the entry of the two strange insects, the Jieqi Gu suddenly felt the crisis.
The light around it lit up like a torch, and there was only a muffled "bang". The silver-winged centipede flew back at a faster speed. The frost it summoned did not cause any effect on the robbery gas Gu.
The Jieqi Gu ignored it.
Dealing with the Silver-Winged Centipede was just a matter of convenience. What really made it uneasy was the Phantom God Gu.
It can't see the Illusion God Gu.
Hiss!
The Jieqi Gu continued to call upon its own power, and the green mist in the cave became thicker and thicker. Chen Luo stood at the entrance, watching the two Gu insects fighting.
He could clearly feel that after the Jieqi Gu called upon its own power, the space around him became even more illusory.
This is a sign that a large amount of calamity energy has been drained away.
Bang bang bang.
The wooden box opened, and under the control of the Jie Qi Gu, the dead corpses crawled out of the box one after another. The dead corpses lying around also sat up and began to attack indiscriminately.
Range coverage.
This is the solution that Jieqi Gu came up with.
It couldn't find the location of the Illusion God Gu, but that didn't stop it from using its own methods. As long as the area covered by the dead body was large enough, it could find the Illusion God Gu hidden in the dark.
"You two go in too."
Looking at the increasing number of withered corpses, Chen Luo said to the lazy Soul-Bonding Gu and Life-Borrowing Gu at the entrance of the cave. (End of this chapter)
