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 213 Return to Black Rock City

Chapter 213 Return to Black Rock City

The straw man exploded, broken grass stems flew everywhere, a circle of gray ripples spread out, and all the plants in the yard that came into contact with this force quickly withered. The water on the table turned from clear to black, and then emitted a strong stench.

The skin on the face of the Demon Sect Leader had dried up visibly, especially the finger he had used to attack earlier. The flesh on it had fallen off, revealing the white bones inside.

The force eroded along his fingers, trying to kill him in one fell swoop.

"Someone put a curse on me?!"

A demon seed emerged from the body of the Demon Seed Sect's leader, and a translucent bubble floated out from his body. This bubble floated out like a coat, and the lower part of it dragged a long tail. The moment it flew away from the body, it took away all the curse power that had corroded into it.

The force circled around the yard, absorbed all the grass roots, and then rotated counterclockwise in the air, getting smaller and smaller, until it finally turned into a small round ball and flew back onto the table.

The sphere continued to rotate, and the power of the grass roots was forced to be involved in it and could no longer leak out.

After the curse power was extracted, the Demon Sect Master's destroyed fingers quickly recovered, and the flesh and blood flowed backwards, quickly suppressing the previous injuries.

A familiar feeling emerged in my heart.

Just like Chen Luo had done before, the leader of the Demon Seed Sect also followed the curse and sensed it back. He raised his hand and pointed out a demon seed, attached it to this layer of backlash force, and responded.

Every curse has a price.

If a curse fails to kill, it will backfire.

Several top-level spells popular in the world of immortal cultivation all involve burning one's lifespan to cast a curse.

The connection arose, and the Sect Master followed this layer of perception and saw the person who plotted against him. The scene over there was a wasteland of rocks and a desolate mountain, and the surroundings were in a mess. It seemed that a war had just happened.

At the edge of the ruins, he saw the Master Yinfeng who had been cursed by him before. At this moment, the Master Yinfeng was in a very miserable state. He was sitting on the ground seriously injured, coughing up blood continuously. A large amount of curse power surrounded his body. Even though the connection between the curses made him see the leader of the Demon Sect, he was powerless to fight back.

“Ahem.”

Master Yinfeng raised his head with difficulty and wanted to say something, but blood spurted out as soon as he opened his mouth, so he had to hold his words back.

Passing by this person, the leader of the Demon Sect saw his disciple Shi Jun again.

Compared to Master Yin Feng, Shi Jun was in a worse state. He was lying in a pile of rocks, bleeding all over, with a large area of ​​his chest collapsed, as if he had been hit by something heavy. Perhaps sensing his breath, Shi Jun opened his eyes and shouted with surprise.

"Master, save me!"

"Master Yinfeng and his friends ignored your dignity and dared to plot against me. You must curse them to death, refine their souls and take away their spirits, so that they will never be able to turn over."

Bang!

Before Shi Jun finished speaking, he saw a shovel coming from the side, hitting his head hard. There was only a muffled sound, and Shi Jun's unfinished words came to an abrupt end. The head exploded like a watermelon, and a radial pattern appeared. Blood, flesh and gravel mixed together. The headless body twitched twice, and then there was no sound.

"It's better for you to be dead if you're so stupid, don't you think?"

Chen Luo put away the shovel, turned his eyes, and once again looked at the Sect Master of the Demon Clan through the aura of curse. The Sect Master of the Demon Clan narrowed his eyes, and the power of the curse instantly penetrated the void and backfired towards Chen Luo.

jingle!!

The sound of copper coins.

The soil beneath Chen Luo's feet cracked open, and a straw man who had just crawled out stood in front of him. It shook its body, and the little painted face raised its head and actually grinned at the gaze of the Demon Sect Master.

Bang!

The straw man exploded, and all the curses that were sent back were swallowed by the straw man. The red line and copper coins next to it also lost their color.

Curse the master!

This method of using a straw man to transfer the curse was the same as the method he used to use the magic bubble. The other party's skillful use of the curse and instinctive reaction showed that he was an evil cultivator who had practiced the way of curse for a lifetime.

The leader of the Demon Sect narrowed his eyes and looked at the man opposite him, constantly recalling his enemy in his mind.

He really couldn't remember when he had offended this powerful person who was proficient in the art of cursing.

It's no wonder that the Sect Master has a bad memory. Chen Luo now is completely different from the one who killed Yue Qingping. One is in the early stage of foundation building, and the other is in the late stage of foundation building. In just a few years, normal people would not associate the two together.

"I don't know your name yet. At our level, there is no grudge that cannot be resolved."

The leader of the Demon Sect conveyed a word, but after the power of the curse was annihilated, the connection between the two was broken again, and he was unable to finish the second half of the sentence.

"The old guy is still trying to trick me."

Sensing the disconnection, Chen Luo put the shovel back into the storage bag. He would not take Shi Jun's brain. This waste was fed to him by the Sect Master of the Seed Demon. Not only was he stupid, but he also couldn't tell the situation clearly. If he took back this kind of brain, he was afraid that he would be screwed one day. In addition, Shi Jun was the Sect Master's demon seed. He had already taken a similar brain from Yue Qingping. There was no point in taking it again. It would just occupy the carrying capacity for nothing.

The leader of the Zhongmo Sect was not an easy person to deal with. His last sentence seemed to be a sign of surrender, but in fact, he was trying to get his name.

As long as it is a name he said himself, no matter it is true or false, it will be associated with him. If an old monster of that level catches the opportunity, he will definitely give him a big gift.

Fortunately, Chen Luo also practiced the art of cursing. He was not the rookie who knew nothing about cursing. Among the more than seventy foundation-building brains he picked up, there was a brain that specialized in the art of cursing. The curse technique was used extremely skillfully in the hands of the external brain. He was truly a cultivator who had practiced cursing for a lifetime.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist."

The Yinfeng Master beside him had recovered, and he slowly expelled the curse power surrounding him. This time he miscalculated and almost fell. Fortunately, Chen Luo intervened at the last moment to save his life, and also took over the grudge between him and the leader of the Demon Sect. In the eyes of Yinfeng Master, this man is definitely a good friend worth making friends with.

The kind of person you can trust your life with, because he really is there when something happens.

"It's a bit too formal to say these words between us."

Chen Luo said with a smile on his face. He certainly couldn't tell Master Yin Feng that he did it to cause trouble for the Demon Sect Master. Favors were something that he couldn't give up if he could earn them for free.

"I was seriously injured this time and need time to recover. I will pay more attention to the news about the Sect Master of the Demon Clan. If there is a chance, I will contact you again."

There was a hint of coldness in Master Yinfeng's eyes.

They were all old demons in the foundation-building stage, and they temporarily gave in in order to retaliate more fiercely later. This time, because of Shi Jun's matter, he had already forged a grudge with the Demon Clan, and he would move out of the Yinfeng Cave after returning. Although he was a little reluctant, compared with his own life, he could give up any external things.

"Okay, fellow Taoist, please be careful."

After a brief chat and some news about Blackrock City purchasing refined corpses, Master Yinfeng flew away.

After Master Yinfeng left, Chen Luo turned around and flew towards the direction of Black Stone City.

If there is a place that sells refined corpses, I must go and take a look.

The information obtained from Master Yinfeng must not be wasted.

After leaving the Five Eyes Viewing area, Chen Luo traveled eastward for three days and entered the territory of Black Stone City again. After entering here, he could clearly feel that the spiritual energy was more abundant. The effect of the third-level spiritual vein was very obvious, and the plants in the area around Black Stone City were particularly lush. At the end of the green plain, there stood a huge mountain with ice and snow on the top. This was the location of Black Stone City.

After flying to the middle level, Chen Luo found the last post station and it took him two days to enter Black Stone City.

This was his second time in Black Rock City.

The scenery that came into view was no different from the first time, and it was still the temporary identity card as before. The difference was that there was no time limit this time, because Master Yinfeng gave him a card. As an old demon in the late stage of foundation building, Master Yinfeng had a residence in Black Stone City and his identity was permanent.

"Buy the corpse refining at the Puppet Pavilion in the market."

Chen Luo followed the location told to him by Master Yinfeng and soon found the place.

The front of the Puppet Pavilion was very luxurious, with a gate more than five meters high. There were two huge wooden puppets placed at the door, with vivid expressions that were no different from real people. There were also many guests in the pavilion, and some Qi-refining monks selling materials were doing business on the first floor, and the scene was like a vegetable market.

Chen Luo glanced around the pavilion and soon found a passage leading down.

From time to time, some strange people in black robes came in and out of the door. These people exuded a cold aura. Most of them were in the late Qi Refining stage, and occasionally one or two Foundation Establishment cultivators would pass by.

The passage was also kept very clean, with luminous pearls lighting up both sides, the dim light illuminating the murals on both sides.

When Chen Luo walked in, Master Yinfeng flashed his token. A wisp of air escaped and merged with the passages on both sides. When he looked at the passage again, the restrictions on the surface actually lit up. People with tokens and people without tokens walked into the passage and went to different places.

This is a small trick that combines formations and restrictions, and Chen Luo happens to be able to understand it.

After walking along the passage for a while, he saw a person in a few steps. A young monk in black came out from inside. This person's face was pale, and he would cough from time to time while walking, and blood appeared from his fingertips. The moment he saw this person, Chen Luo's footsteps subconsciously paused.

'Breath of the Bones Lady'

Chen Luo still had a very deep memory of this fellow who had helped him. When they first occupied Gumo Mountain, they had worked together to deal with the foreign enemies. Later, Madam Bai Gu got the news about Luosha Bone and left. There was no news of her since then.

I thought we would never meet again, but I didn't expect to sense her presence here.

The other party seemed not to see him. He coughed as he passed by him and disappeared into the passage.

Taking note of this person's breath, Chen Luo continued to move forward.
