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 365 Attempt

Chapter 365 Attempt

What realm is this?!

There was a flash of surprise in Chen Luo's eyes. He had just added a wisp of spiritual consciousness to the cursed straw man and had not slacked off throughout the whole process. However, even so, the cursed straw man could not hold on and was burned to ashes with just a glance.

"This person... is a little weird."

Chen Luo's eyes flickered as he weighed whether to go over or not. Judging from the current situation, this man should not be able to get out. The formation outside seemed to be specially left here to seal him. In this case, he could not be rash at all. He only had one life. Uncle San's teachings were still echoing in his ears.

"Since you are here, why don't you come in and have a chat?"

The sound came out accurately from inside.

Chen Luo didn't say anything. Facing such an old monster, it was never too cautious. Voices were sometimes unsafe. He knew of several ways to cast a curse through voice.

"Meeting is destiny, why should you be so cautious? Perhaps you and I can become friends regardless of age difference."

Seeing that Chen Luo didn't say anything, a voice came from inside again.

Chen Luo took a look at the place and turned away.

He would never try anything beyond his ability unless he had no other options. The old guy was always here anyway, so he would come back to find him when there was a chance or when he found a clue.

"It's rare to meet a friend with whom I can talk, but you are so alert. I have placed a book on the third bookshelf. It contains some of my insights on spiritual practice. I will give it to you as a gift." After he finished speaking this time, the water surface returned to calm.

A third bookshelf?

Chen Luo had seen that bookshelf before. It contained only some poems and songs, and no spiritual enlightenment. However, this person said so, so there must be some truth in it. With the other party's strength, it is very likely that he has mastered some methods that he does not understand.

Back out the door.

Chen Luo shook his sleeves, and three yellow talismans floated down from them and landed on the steps in front of the courtyard. Chen Luo stretched out his hand and flicked it, and three spiritual light spots merged into it.

'Cut off the connection to avoid being cursed.'

The brain of the Heart Demon Ancestor came up with a safe plan. He came down from the upper realm and knew some methods of tracing the source of the curse.

"The Soul-Exterminating Formation can isolate danger."

The brain of the newly acquired fourth-level formation master also emerged.

Following the methods of the two, Chen Luo successively applied several layers of defense to himself, and finally called upon the mummy brother.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

The feedback made Chen Luo feel a little relieved. Under his control, the talisman paper figures on the ground immediately stood up, and after trying to jump a few times, the three figures split into three directions and re-entered the study. According to Chen Luo's control, they pulled out all the books on the third bookshelf.

'Selected Poems.'

'The difference in tune.'

Books were taken out one by one, and there was not much change until the last book was taken out. Then Chen Luo discovered that there was an extra book on the bookshelf behind him. He did not see this book when he was browsing the bookshelf before.

This is an ancient book with a black cover and the pages are a little damaged. As soon as Chen Luo opened the page, he saw familiar handwriting.

It was the handwriting of the person who signed it before.

'Detailed explanation of the formation?'

Chen Luo tried several times and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the book before he picked it up and began to flip through the contents. As he flipped through the contents, the brain of the fourth-level array master in the external brain quickly revived, and forgotten memories were restored and mastered one by one.

During this process, Chen Luo's level as a formation master officially surpassed the third level and reached the fourth level. The brain of the hanging brother retreated to the second line and became an auxiliary.

After flipping through the book and digesting the inheritance, Chen Luo solemnly bowed to the courtyard, but he still did not speak.

It is better to be safe than sorry.

After expressing his gratitude, Chen Luo asked the little paper figurine to return the book, and then turned around and left without any reluctance.

"pity."

Across the pool, the sealed middle-aged man sighed.

"Has the master's friend left?"

The woman who came back from washing clothes looked at her master in confusion and asked stupidly. The middle-aged man glanced at her indifferently and did not respond to the woman's question. Instead, he fell into deep thought. A drop of ink appeared on the white paper on the desk.

Southern region.

Spirit Pond.

The sky was clear and cloudless. The sun shone from above, shining on the water of the Spirit Pond. Under the scorching heat, a layer of colorful mist rose from the surface of the Spirit Pond. The mist drifted everywhere, surrounding the Spirit Pond buildings, making the entire area look like a fairyland.

The Fairy of Lingchi was wearing a white gauze dress and standing in the pavilion beside the Lingchi.

The mist passed through the dress, bringing a cool feeling.

The Taixu Patriarch Gu He, wearing a grey gown and carrying the Taixu Sword, stood beside the Fairy Lingchi. The surrounding white mist would be cut apart by the invisible sword energy when approaching Gu He. He was like a divine sword unsheathed, filled with sharp sword energy.

"Have you brothers finally made a decision?"

Fairy Lingchi had a smile on her face, as if she had guessed it long ago.

"We need a copy of the Yin-Yang Demon Lord's manuscript." Gu He's face was calm. No one knew what he was thinking, and what decision the Seven Ancestors of Qionghua had made.

"Also, there is something you need to go do. I will let you know the specific time when the time comes."

"no problem."

The Fairy of the Spirit Pond nodded and agreed. As long as the Seventh Ancestor of Qionghua was willing to help, she would have a way to drag these people into the water. The corpse buried under the Spirit Pond was not an ordinary monster. Only after touching it would you know how terrifying it was.

"As long as you can help me cut up the body, I'll accept any request."

As they were talking, a layer of light red blood appeared on the body of the Fairy of Lingchi. The eyeballs buried in the water of the pool opened their eyes again, and their huge pupils looked at the two of them from across the water.

"snort!"

Gu He's face turned cold.

The Taixu sword behind him trembled slightly, and an invisible sword energy rose out of thin air. The dark red aura was cut by the sword energy before it could take shape.

Bang!

With a loud bang, a circular sword energy exploded in the pavilion, and vaguely there seemed to be a flash of angry and unwilling roar.

The fog dissipated and the sword energy subsided.

The eyes in the pool closed again, the water surface returned to normal, and the dark red aura around the Lingchi Fairy also disappeared.

"Control your mind. If anything goes wrong, I'll kill you first."

Gu He left a message, turned around and flew away from the spirit pond.

"State of mind. Problem?"

In the pavilion, a trace of worry flashed across the eyes of the Fairy of the Spirit Pond, but it was soon replaced by madness. The dark red aura and the clearness of the Spirit Pond kept switching back and forth, sometimes peaceful, sometimes crazy.

"Transformation into a spirit, only transformation into a spirit can lead to transcendence"

Fairy Lingchi muttered to herself, she had gone through countless hardships and suffered countless sufferings before she became a Nascent Soul. But after reaching this stage, the road ahead was cut off! If she didn't become a god, she would be nothing but a handful of dirt after three thousand years. She couldn't accept this ending no matter what.

Gu He looked a little gloomy as he flew away from the spirit pond.

There must be something wrong with the spirit pool, a big problem. He never believed in the path of a casual Nascent Soul cultivator to become a god from the beginning. But the situation of the Qionghua Sect is very delicate now. The real plan of becoming a god has been blocked. The centipede monster outside has disappeared with the Star Gathering Jade. The whereabouts of the Thousand-Eyed Centipede and the Lord of the Ghost Temple are also unknown.

They sent people to check out the ghost temple ruins, but found nothing left there. All the ghost cultivators had disappeared, as if they had been eaten by something.

These people hide in the dark and no one knows what they are planning.

Not long ago, Jianchi Peak in the evil cultivation area was destroyed by an unknown object. When he went there, he found nothing. Someone below sent back a message that caught his attention. According to the description in the message, a few months ago, Chen Luo passed a message to the Demon Sealing Elder of Jianchi Peak, telling them that something had happened in Fox Mountain.

This is another trouble.

As the most powerful sect in the Tiannan Region, there were many things that the seven of them could not avoid at all.

Occupying so many resources comes with so much cost.

"The monster clan has changed. The plague beast in the hands of the centipede monster in the Yin-Yang Demon's transformation road and the old ghost with painted skin in the Golden Light Cave"

Gu He's figure cut through the sky like a sword, flying towards the direction of Qionghua Sect. In his mind, he calculated the enemies that had been suppressed by their Qionghua Sect for thousands of years. Unconsciously, these enemies had become so numerous that they had to face them.

"It's good that Xiao Luo left now. This kid is very sensitive to danger. He must have discovered something."

Gu He gathered his thoughts and disappeared into the Qionghua Sect.

Tomb of Stars.

Entering here again, Chen Luo felt different. He went to the tomb to see the mummy brother. The tomb that originally looked ordinary now had array patterns everywhere. The brain of the fourth-level array master brought him many memories related to the tomb, including the part about their attempt to break the array.

I said hello to my brother.

Chen Luo pushed open the wooden door and went to the second tomb chamber. The formation pattern here was just as complicated and different from the first one.

Walking to the edge of the platform, Chen Luo tried it with the paper man.

Dense restrictions and killing arrays emerged, blocking the possibility of passing through. Chen Luo stopped here last time. He could not get through by taking shortcuts. The platform over there was not damaged and there were no cracks.

The fourth-level array master's brain quickly became active and began to analyze these array patterns and restrictions.

If it were any other area, the brain of a fourth-level formation master would not be enough, but he has lived in this place for more than a thousand years, and the ideas of breaking the formation in Baixian Cave in the past are still lingering in his mind. Most of them are for dealing with this node, and taking them out at this moment is just right to solve the problem.

"I have some impression of this mark, it looks like the Tianshu array pattern."

Chen Luo sat cross-legged on the edge of the platform, constantly calculating the distance between the third platform and him, looking for possible weak points.

Around him, a large number of talisman paper figurines were burned, hundreds of insects in the insect gourd died, and even the evil spirit in the soul-guiding banner was damaged.

I kept trying one method after another, and time passed day by day.
