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 255 Harvest

Chapter 255 Harvest

The cemetery on the back mountain was where Chen Luo made his fortune. However, after so many years, the cemetery on the back mountain has been overgrown with weeds.

After he left, a new disciple took over the place. However, the new disciple, like his predecessors, took a laissez-faire attitude towards the cemetery.

When Chen Luo came over, the disciples guarding the tomb were sleeping soundly.

The cemetery in the back mountain is not a good place. The spiritual energy here is thin. Only disciples who fail to meet the requirements of the immortal sect to accept disciples will choose this place. It is like paying for the status of an outer sect.

There are such disciples in every peak. The reputation of Shenhu Xianmen is too big, and many people who go up the mountain are unwilling to go back. Choosing this way to stay on the mountain not only allows them to continue their practice, but also brings influence to their worldly families. It can be considered an investment.

Over the past twenty years, some more people were buried in the back mountain, but they were all younger generations in the Qi Refining Realm. For Chen Luo, he had long since eliminated the brains of those in the Qi Refining Realm and did not disturb their eternal sleep.

After turning around, Chen Luo flew towards Yaowang Peak on his sword.

"I left in a hurry, and there are still many valuable brains in the Immortal Gate that I haven't collected yet."

After leaving the sect for more than 20 years, the things that were not completed at the beginning can finally be completed.

Compared to the chaos in the evil cultivation land, the quality of the brains of the Shenhu Immortal Sect is very high. The foundation-building cultivators who have passed away all have their own inheritance during their lifetime, which just makes up for Chen Luo's shortcomings in some areas.

Two days later.

The tombs in the back mountains of each peak were diligently cleared of grass and the soil was renewed. The disciples in charge of guarding the tombs did not even see any human figures. Such a strange scene frightened the disciples guarding the tombs of each peak and they all reported the matter.

However, this kind of thing that did not cause casualties and did not involve important personnel was naturally ignored by the upper echelons. More than 20 years later, Shenhu Xianmen still maintained the style of profit-first and became more and more prosperous.

Inside the practice room.

Chen Luo sorted out the gains of the past two days. With his strength in the late stage of foundation building, it was easy for him to rob the tomb in the back mountain. Those Qi Refining Realm tomb-guarding disciples would never be able to find him.

In two days, he dug through the main peaks that had not been dug before. Divine Fire Peak and Medicine King Peak each harvested two foundation-building brains, and the other main peaks also harvested one.

Seven brains were collected, and the number of foundation-building brains that Chen Luo had accumulated reached 125. One Jindan brain and an unknown mummy brain, a total of 127 brains.

"We also need to add some inheritance corresponding to the immortal sect."

Now that we have the brains of the elders of the Immortal Sect, we must make up for their skills and inheritance during their lifetime, otherwise these brains will not be of much use if they remain in their bodies.

Taking advantage of the night, Chen Luo walked out of the training room.

It was a dark and windy night.

It's a good time to go out and do some work.

Chen Luo's first step was to go to Yaowang Peak. He had been there once and was familiar with the road. Not to mention that he had Elder An's brain to guide him, so going back was like going home.

Flying all the way without disturbing anyone.

Soon Chen Luo arrived at Yaowang Peak. There were some changes compared to more than 20 years ago. The new peak master of Yaowang Peak was Xuri, the former deputy of Elder An. After Elder An disappeared, Elder Xuri was successfully promoted to the position of peak master.

Landing on Yaowang Peak, Chen Luo spread out his spiritual sense and quickly found the Yaowang Peak Library.

His figure flashed and flew directly through the window.

There was a restriction at the door, and Chen Luo, who had a second-level restriction brain, could see it at a glance. There was also a restriction at the window, but it was relatively weak, which was a good breakthrough point for Chen Luo.

“So little?”

Entering the library, Chen Luo was slightly disappointed. But this was expected. The main peaks of Shenhu Xianmen were relatively independent of each other. The core inheritance was in Shenhu Peak. The remaining peaks had some techniques stored in the library. However, these books were for new disciples. There were very few techniques above the foundation building stage, and they were all in the hands of the masters of the major peaks.

"Just make do with it."

Chen Luo walked to the first bookcase and started flipping through the books openly.

He flipped through the secret books one by one quickly, and the corresponding memories quickly emerged in the minds of several elders. These were what they had learned in their lifetime. As soon as Chen Luo's "data" caught up, they immediately recalled it.

Controlling fire, nourishing elixir, spiritual plants, pharmacological combinations, etc.

Squeak...

Two hours later, Chen Luo put down the last book. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, there was a sound of the door opening, and a foundation-building monk in a gray robe walked in.

The man was holding a book in his hand, but as soon as he entered the door, he stopped.

Anyone?

He remembered that he had issued an order today to seal off the library. If he remembered the order correctly, this person came from nowhere, and the restrictions in the library were not touched by anyone...

"Who are you? Why are you in the library?"

Elder Xu Ri looked at Chen Luo and asked with a gloomy face. The ancestor of the immortal sect was still alive, and he didn't believe that anyone would be so bold as to come to the mountain to cause trouble.

The most important thing was that he saw the token hanging around Chen Luo's waist, and the aura on it showed that he was a disciple of the Immortal Sect.

"I am a disciple of Wudao Peak, and I came here to read some books."

Chen Luo put down the book and responded seriously.

"Reading a book?"

Xu Ri's face turned cold.

It's from Wudao Peak! Ever since the last peak master disappeared, Yaowang Peak and Wudao Peak have fallen out. Apart from missions, there has been no private interaction between the disciples over the years.

"Don't you know that you need to pay merits to borrow the sect's skills? Your behavior has violated the sect's rules."

"Merit, sect rules"

Chen Luo slapped his head. He had been out for too long and had forgotten the rules of Shenhu Xianmen. However, he couldn't get any merits at the moment. From the time he entered the sect till now, Chen Luo had never done any serious tasks. The merits earned from small tasks had long been used up.

"Can you please owe me first?"

Chen Luo thought of a solution.

"What a joke! What do you think a sect is? You still owe..."

Before Xuri finished speaking, he felt an aura of nearly perfect foundation emerging from Chen Luo. The ninety-nine spiritual dragons became active, and the books in the library automatically flipped without wind, making a rustling sound.

Is the level of Wudao Peak so high? All the disciples are in the late stage of foundation building!

Elder Xu Ri subconsciously took a half step back, and a drop of cold sweat flowed down his forehead.

He was only in the initial stage of foundation building, and there were only three spiritual dragons in his body. Sensing the power in Chen Luo, he swallowed subconsciously and held back the words that he had not finished.

"Are you really a disciple of Wudao Peak?"

“Guaranteed authenticity.”

Chen Luo restrained his breath, took out a black token from his storage bag and handed it over.

It turns out that speaking reason is the best approach, and this is called winning people over with virtue.

Elder Xu Ri took the token and breathed a sigh of relief after sensing the familiar aura on it. It's one of ours, that's right! This way, there's no need to worry about safety issues. As long as you are a disciple of Shenhu Xianmen, you must follow the rules set by the ancestor. Elder Xu Ri used a wisp of spiritual energy to try to deduct the merits on the token.

But after the spiritual power went around in a circle, it returned empty-handed. He looked down and was completely dumbfounded.

The token was indeed from Wu Dao Peak, and it also had the aura of Wu Wei Zhenren on it. With such merits, how could he still owe the sect hundreds of thousands?

"not enough?"

Chen Luo recognized the token, it belonged to his master, Wuwei Zhenren. He had used it once before and overdrawn it. This time, after coming back and chatting with Wuwei Zhenren, he borrowed it again. Unexpectedly, more than 20 years later, Wuwei Zhenren still hadn't paid off the debt.

"I still have some here. There should be quite a few merits in this token."

Chen Luo touched his storage bag and immediately remembered the second token.

In a flash, he took out a white jade token, with a large word "medicine" in the middle of the token standing out. Elder Xu Ri's hand trembled as he prepared to take the token, and his mind, which had just stabilized, began to tremble again.

He recognized this token.

It was the personal token of Elder An, the former head of Yaowang Peak. He had been the deputy of Elder An for hundreds of years, so he would not have made a mistake. If Elder An had not disappeared, Xu Ri would not have had the chance to succeed him as the head of the peak. When he was occasionally refining pills, he would still think that he must thank the master who killed Elder An when he had the chance. He did not expect that his wish would come true so soon.

"No need. Why would you deduct merit points for a few books? I can make up for it for you."

Elder Xuri stopped trembling and his expression turned serious.

"Would this be against the rules?"

"I am the rule in Yaowang Peak! If I say yes, then yes."

As he spoke, Elder Xu Ri handed the black book in his hand to Chen Luo.

"I also have a book on alchemy for the foundation-building stage. We are all from the same school, so we should communicate with each other and learn more."

Holding the newly acquired martial arts technique, Chen Luo felt emotional.

There are still many good people in the sect.

This Yaowang Peak has had a connection with him from the very beginning. This was true for the former peak master, Elder An, and the new peak master, Elder Xuri.

Holding the skills given by Elder Xuri, Chen Luo talked with Elder Xuri for a while. Elder Xuri was so moved that he felt like a close friend and gritted his teeth and gave his storage bag to Chen Luo.

After leaving Yaowang Peak, Chen Luo went to the remaining main peaks again.

Practice during the day and read at night.

In the process, I also became familiar with the masters of the major peaks.

The days in Xianmen are so peaceful.

Time passed, and half a month passed in a flash.

Half a month later, Huang Ying, who had stabilized her cultivation, returned to Wudao Peak again. The aura of foundation building immediately alarmed Zhenren Wuwei. Under the witness of Chen Luo and Zhenren Wuwei, Huang Ying became the second elder on Wudao Peak and enjoyed the treatment of foundation building.

After being promoted, Huang Ying moved next door to Chen Luo and practiced next to him as before.

However, Chen Luo entered a new period of seclusion, which made Huang Ying somewhat disappointed.

Inside the secret room.

Chen Luo reached out and melted a ball of black liquid into the nine magic swords. The spiritual fire turned, and the flames wrapped around the magic swords and kept forging them. In this process, the magic swords were constantly purified, and the luster on the swords became brighter and brighter, and diamond-shaped grids appeared on the swords.

"Refine!"

Chen Luo made a hand gesture with one hand and made the last mark.

The magic sword flickered, and the light immediately retracted into the body, turning into nine ordinary magic swords. After absorbing the brain of the second-level weapon refiner of the Divine Fire Peak and supplementing the relevant techniques, Chen Luo repaired and refined all the magic weapons in his hand.

Now the Soul Banner has become a second-grade superior magic weapon, and the sword formation has been upgraded to the second-grade ultimate.

The consumption needed for refining equipment was all provided by the new Yaowang Peak Master, Elder Xu Ri. He was a passionate person and insisted on giving away the storage bag, so Chen Luo had no choice.
