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...
"Is this the level of a Jindan ghost cultivator?"
Chen Luo held Xue Ning's head, and the disappointment in his eyes was written on his face. The head that he carefully preserved could not be read. Who could he complain to?
"That doesn't make sense. Could it be that ghost cultivators have no brains? Or is there something wrong with my method?"
Chen Luo kept thinking.
Several thoughts popped up in the external brain.
"Is it possible that a ghost cultivator's brain grows on his legs?"
I don’t know which weird brain came up with this idea.
Chen Luo, believing it was better to believe it, dragged Xue Ning's severed lower body over, but he still couldn't read it.
'Probably the heart.'
Chen Luo looked at Xue Ning's chest.
It's already been destroyed.
"……"
Thoughts popped up one after another, with strange angles and very tricky. Wuwei Zhenren and others beside him were already stunned. They didn't know what Chen Luo was doing, and they didn't dare to disturb him.
"Who are you?"
Xue Ning shouted angrily. She tried desperately to recall this face, but she couldn't remember why there was such a strong body cultivator in the Seven Kingdoms. The most important thing was that this body cultivator also practiced a rare "Yin Lei Body Refining Technique". It was with this "body refining technique" that most of the methods of their ghost cultivators were ineffective.
"We are old friends, how could I have forgotten you in the blink of an eye? I almost forgot to ask you, is Brother Han Jiu's age... body still in your ghost temple?" Unable to read, Chen Luo changed his method. He was ready to communicate with the other party.
He has always been a reasonable person.
"Are you the one who escaped back then?" Xue Ning widened his eyes and reacted suddenly.
She thought of two useless ghosts that had been useless for a long time.
As soon as he thought about it, two figures emerged. One in the middle was full of blood and qi, and the other was hunched over with a red phantom coffin on his back. These two people were the old ghost with blood and qi and the old man carrying the coffin who had explored the Rakshasa land with Chen Luo.
The old ghost Qixue was a friend of Madam Bai Gu, and Chen Luo also exchanged a "Secret Book of Evil Bone" from him. The level of the skill was not high, but it did play a big role for Chen Luo at that time. The old man carrying the coffin was killed by Chen Luo using the ghost in the cave. After the place was eroded by the ghost temple, the body was obtained by Xue Ning, and the ghost became her accomplice.
"Ms. Xue, I know I was wrong. It was you?!"
As soon as the two ghosts came out, they knelt down and begged for mercy. But they were halfway through their words when they suddenly saw Chen Luo in front of them.
Their memories are still stuck at the time before they died.
Seeing Chen Luo now, they thought that Chen Luo had become Xue Ning's target just like them. They knew how strong Xue Ning was after becoming a ghost cultivator. That was the strength of a Jindan! No, it was a Jindan ancestor. Although they didn't know how Xue Ning was promoted, she had already broken through to a higher level and became the Jindan ancestor they had always dreamed of.
"You have come to this day too?"
"Miss Xue, leave this person to me. I guarantee that you will be satisfied!"
The eyes of the angry old ghost and the old man carrying the coffin were bloodshot. They had forgotten the hatred they had felt for being tortured by Xue Ning in the past and only wanted revenge.
Revenge for a life!
Bang!
The shadow flew from the side, and the old man carrying the coffin still had a gloating smile on his face, and then the ghost's body exploded. The blinding lightning exploded on the spot, and a slap turned the old man carrying the coffin into black ash. The remaining force slapped the face of the old ghost of blood and qi, making his entire face concave. The remaining lightning blasted into his body, whipping him away.
Only at this moment did he see Xue Ning's image clearly.
Only one head was left.
What happened!
"Could it be that after I was locked up for hundreds of years, that guy also formed a pill? Impossible! !"
A shadow fell from the sky. Its foot grew bigger and bigger, stepping accurately on the face of the old ghost. With a flash of lightning, the old ghost disappeared completely between heaven and earth with his angry and unwilling ghost body.
Xue Ning, who was held in Chen Luo's hand, couldn't help but shiver.
She originally summoned these two ghosts to let them use their acquaintances to buy some time. Both of them were killed by Chen Luo in their lifetime, and no matter how big the hatred was, it was over after death. In this case, when meeting an acquaintance, shouldn't they be proud and boastful like a winner?
"It wasn't handled properly before, but it was finally solved this time. Thank you!"
After killing the two men, Chen Luo turned his attention back to Xue Ning.
"Tell me, where is Brother Han Jiu's body?"
"It's in the hands of the 'National Master'. If you have the guts, go ask him for it." Xue Ning's voice was a little cold.
She has accepted reality.
She just felt a little unwilling to accept that she had been planning for many years, but in the end, all her efforts were in vain. On the contrary, Chen Luo, a junior who she had not taken seriously at the beginning, inexplicably soared to the sky, not only successfully forming a pill, but also obtained a strange "body refining secret technique". If it were not for this body refining secret technique, how could she have ended up like this.
"National Master?"
Chen Luo thought of the national teacher of the Millennium Ancient Country. The Taixu Patriarch Gu He once told him that there was a thousand-year-old centipede monster in the territory of the Millennium Ancient Country. The centipede was extremely powerful and stole the position of the national teacher of the ancient country. It treated everyone in the territory of the Millennium Ancient Country as food and ate them at will.
But this centipede monster has always been in the ancient country for thousands of years. When did it run to the ghost temple? Could it be that there is some secret that the Seventh Ancestor of Taixu does not know?
"The Spring and Autumn Gu is mysterious and unpredictable. Han Jiu is of great use. His ghost had long been awakened by the national teacher, and now he is a ghost cultivator in the ghost temple like me." As he spoke, the broken stones around him gathered together little by little, and under Chen Luo's gaze, the body that was beaten to pieces by him recovered little by little.
"The person who was in Rakshasa Land was the state teacher?"
Chen Luo remembered the strange man sitting in the sedan chair he met when he and Madam Bai Gu escaped from the Rakshasa land.
"no."
When mentioning this person, Xue Ning's eyes fluctuated.
"Why did you come to the Seven Kingdoms?"
"It's the same anywhere. If you want to move up, you have to rely on yourself."
“That makes sense.”
Chen Luo nodded, agreeing with this statement.
"There is no hatred between you and me, we can cooperate. I have a secret in my hand, which is related to Ningying." Seeing this, Xue Ning tried to negotiate.
She didn't want to die.
Xue Ning came to the land of the Seven Kingdoms to break through. Like Chen Luo, Xue Ning also has her own secrets. She was originally a spider spirit on the Ten Thousand Monsters Mountain. By chance, she escaped the blockade of the Ten Thousand Monsters Mountain. Using the inheritance of the Ten Thousand Monsters Mountain, she made a name for herself in Black Stone City. This is why neither Mrs. White Bone nor Old Demon Fang knew her origins. When Chen Luo went to the Tiannan Region, he passed by the Ten Thousand Monsters Mountain and met a woman in a dangerous place. The woman once asked him that Chen Luo had the "breath of Xue Ning".
Chen Luo did not answer him.
Among the external brains, more than a hundred brains were thinking about how to collect the ghost cultivators' brains.
In the short time they were chatting, Chen Luo had tried more than a dozen methods, but none of them worked. But he was not in a hurry, because having more brains has its advantages. One brain, one idea, was enough for him to try more than a hundred times.
'Cut off the Yin Qi, and retain the consciousness temporarily.'
The mummy brain, who was studying the cultivation route for the Jindan stage, took the time to give a suggestion.
Yin energy?
Chen Luo had an idea and looked at Xue Ning's slowly recovering body.
".All yours, how about that?"
Xue Ning stated her conditions without noticing that Chen Luo had not heard a word of what she said before. With the method of the mummy brain, the spiritual power in Chen Luo's hand began to change. Strands of light blue spiritual power emerged from his fingers like silk and merged into Xue Ning's head.
Xue Ning, who was speaking, suddenly felt something was wrong, and an unprecedented sense of crisis came over him.
"You are."
Xue Ning was halfway through his words when the luster in his eyes suddenly dimmed. His body, which was recovering, faded a little bit and turned into a grayish-white stone. At this moment, Chen Luo's palm, which had been pressing on Xue Ning's head, finally sensed the familiar energy.
'Contacted with the brain waves of a dead person, damage level 7%, do you want to read it?'
Read!
Gray energy flowed into the body along the arm. This time the energy contained was very sufficient. Chen Luo read a lot of redundant "fragments" from it. These fragments included Xue Ning's life experience and the secrets she cared about most. However, Chen Luo was most concerned about the "field of vision" problem.
Xue Ning is the spider spirit from the Ten Thousand Demons Mountain.
Being both a demon cultivator and a ghost cultivator, one effort brings two rewards!
"If I refine one more drop of soul fluid, I can practice the Thousand Silk Technique, and I can also start to learn the upper realm skills."
'Survive.'
Xue Ning’s obsession was very simple, and the redundant fragments that Chen Luo saw were all centered around these two obsessions.
"It's done."
Chen Luo was refreshed and thought of a lot of ways. In the end, Brother Mummy had to help. I must go back if I have a chance. There are so many tombs. I will find a few more to replenish Brother Mummy's energy.
"Dead?"
Zhenren Wuwei and others who had been paying attention to the situation here gathered over.
They didn't expect Chen Luo to be able to kill Xue Ning. The combined efforts of the three Jindan cultivators from the seven countries were no match for him. Such a powerful Jindan ghost cultivator died in the hands of Chen Luo. This scene was very shocking.
After reading the brain, the head held in Chen Luo's hand gradually turned gray and finally became a petrified head, without any life at all.
"It's solved."
He put the head into the storage bag, briefly explained the situation to Taoist Wuwei, and then flew away from Shenhu Xianmen.
Xue Ning attacked the Seven Kingdoms for such a long time, sweeping away a large amount of resources.
Most of them were insignificant to Chen Luo, but there was one that was very important. This was the "Upper Realm Skill" that Xue Ning stole from the Ten Thousand Monsters Mountain. This skill was the secret of Xue Ning's fortune, and it was because of this skill that she changed her name to the Ghost Temple. Xue Ning had been practicing the "Upper Realm Skill" for many years, and the biggest credit for her being able to form a pill so quickly was this upper realm skill.
After Chen Luo left, Wuwei Zhenren began to gather his disciples to revive the mountain sect. After this disaster, the Corpse Cultivation Sect and the Nine Poison Valley were completely destroyed. Mo Wenjian brought the only remaining elder of the Nine Poison Valley and returned to Wuwei Zhenren.
The immortal gates in the seven-country region are completely unified.
Half a day later.
In the barren mountains to the northwest of the Seven Kingdoms region, in the old forest, there is an abandoned temple. The gray-white stone building occupies most of the valley.
Dead leaves, rocks, and silence.
A short-tailed rat emerged from a crack in the stone, cautiously searching for food. Several half-rotten corpses leaned against the wall. Some translucent shadows swam in the deserted temple, appearing at intervals and then mysteriously disappearing.
Appear and disappear.
A certain cycle repeats itself. (End of this chapter)
