Chapter 407 Departure

'Needs improvement.'

The Immortal Emperor Changqing's brain sensed what Chen Luo had prepared and gave a brief evaluation. Then the corresponding improvement method quickly appeared in Chen Luo's mind. As the idea emerged, Chen Luo only felt that the spiritual power in his mind was mixed together by an invisible force, just like refining a weapon, constantly stretching and beating.

After thousands of times, the power of the soul was reduced by one tenth.

The spiritual power that had just been condensed not long ago gradually condensed between his eyebrows, transforming from a floating mist into a sharp steel needle. The steel needle was dark blue in color, and it looked a little hazy when you looked at it carefully, like an illusory object.

Soul thorn!

The whole process only takes a few breaths.

After improving the Soul-Snatching Thorn, the Immortal Emperor Changqing reached into the Insect Control Bag, which was filled with poisonous insects. These black insects were eating the poison that Chen Luo had put in not long ago. Nearly two-thirds of the insects could not withstand the poison and died inside, being eaten by other insects of the same kind.

The remaining one-third of the poisonous insects continued to evolve in this process.

The strange centipede, the life-borrowing Gu, and the soul-parasitic Gu each occupied an area, and anything that came close to them, whether it was poison or other insects, would be devoured by them. The soul-devouring Gu, which relied on group power to win, was no match for these insects.

The poisonous insects tamed in this way will be several times more powerful than before, and can cause considerable trouble even when facing a Nascent Soul cultivator. However, this method was obviously disliked by Brother Changqing. He stretched out his index finger, and the spiritual power mixed with the poison was condensed into a small spherical ball by him, and thrown into the insect-controlling bag.

One, two.

He didn't withdraw his hand until he threw the tenth one.

Chen Luo observed Brother Changqing's actions the whole time, but had no idea what he was doing.

After ten poisonous spirit powers were suspended in the insect control bag for about ten breaths, the insects inside suddenly rioted. They abandoned the venom and the corpses of their companions and rushed towards the spirit power poison ball in the air like crazy. Even a few strange insects were attracted and began to attack actively.

The death rate of the insect swarm suddenly increased by dozens of times.

A large number of insects were eliminated, but the surviving ones became stronger and stronger. Dark golden patterns began to appear on their bodies, and they slowly developed an aura similar to that of fourth-order poisonous insects.

"Quantity for quality? Do those spirit balls have this effect?"

Chen Luo was at a loss.

Although he was the one who released these spiritual energy balls, he had no idea of ​​the principle. Why did spiritual energy mixed with poison produce such an effect? ​​It felt like a child who had just learned to read reading the Book of Alchemy. He knew the words and symbols, but didn't understand what they meant when combined.

The seemingly simple mixture of spiritual power and venom undergoes several detailed changes during the condensation process. What are the uses of these detailed changes? I guess only Brother Changqing himself knows.

Brother Changqing's brain still didn't stop. After the group of insects had eaten up the ten spiritual power balls, he threw in another ten spiritual power balls.

The number of poisonous insects decreased again.

The spiritual power balls continued to be put in, until the 100th spiritual power ball was put in, there were only four strange insects left, and the remaining poisonous insects were all used as "feed" by Brother Changqing to feed the four strange insects. After devouring a large number of their own kind, whether it was the life-borrowing Gu or the soul-parasitic Gu, or the two centipedes, their auras broke through the original level, and the same dark gold veins appeared on their bodies.

Only at this point did Brother Changqing stop.

Looking at the four powerful poisonous insects in the insect control bag, Chen Luo clearly felt the danger. These were extremely poisonous insects that could pose a threat to him at this stage.

After transforming the poisonous insect, Immortal Emperor Changqing's brain fell silent again.

He did not modify the Yin Lei Ball. I don't know if it was because he disliked it, or maybe it was because this disposable item itself did not have much value in modification.

"Drive!"

Chen Luo stretched out his finger, pointed at the storage bag, and drew a small circle in the air with his index finger.

The four strange insects in the insect control bag flew out immediately. The colors of the two centipedes changed, and the wings on their backs grew into three pairs. The black poisonous claws exuded a black color, and the scarlet tentacles swayed back and forth. The life-borrowing Gu also grew a lot bigger, and its body became more round. When controlling the life-borrowing Gu, Chen Luo clearly felt the Qionghua Sect disciples outside the cave.

As long as he wants, the life-borrowing Gu can easily "borrow" the life span of cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage, and can "borrow" the life span of cultivators who have reached half their life span in one breath. The same can be done for the Nascent Soul stage, and the speed and restrictions of borrowing life are very different from before.

Unlike the Life-Borrowing Gu, the Soul-Bonding Gu is smaller.

The Soul-Parsing Gu is made up of even finer Gu worms. After being refined by the Immortal Emperor Changqing, the remaining Soul-Parsing Gu is even more powerful and can already parasitize fourth-level monsters. If he encounters the big whale in the sea again, Chen Luo feels that the Soul-Parsing Gu now can control two of the opponent's meridians.

call out!

The soul needle flew out and circled around silently. It appeared suddenly and disappeared strangely. Only Chen Luo could sense the whole process.

“It’s stable!”

Chen Luo was overjoyed. He put away the four strange insects and the soul needle, stood up and walked to the door of the secret room.

The battle flag under his feet flew up by itself and fell into his sleeve.

Click

The stone door of the training room opened and Chen Luo walked out.

“Senior Brother!”

The gatekeeper disciple quickly bowed and greeted Chen Luo. Now there is a gatekeeper task in Qionghua Sect, and many disciples are vying for the task of guarding the gate for Chen Luo. The news that the two gatekeeper disciples were given elixirs last time has spread among the inner disciples.

"I'm going to go out for a while and find someone to clean up inside."

Chen Luo casually threw out two pills.

These pills were made with the resources of Qionghua Sect, and giving them to Qionghua Sect disciples was a way of giving back to the sect, which was very consistent with his current status as the "master". In Chen Luo's view, these disciples were his resources, and they were his beloved friends who helped him save time for cultivation!

"yes."

A hint of joy appeared on the two men's faces. They didn't expect to be so lucky. They met their senior brother coming out of retreat not long after they stood there.

Chen Luoxu took a step and appeared in mid-air as if he had teleported. When he walked out again, he had disappeared into the sky.

Rebirth Valley.

Chen Luo had seen this place many times in the information reported by the disciples below, but this was the first time he had actually come here. The location of the Rebirth Valley was very remote, located at the junction of the Qionghua Sect and the Jinguang Cave. It was surrounded by mountains and rocks. The bottom of the valley was full of poisonous miasma, and dark blue river water flowed below.

After flying into this area, Chen Luo became obviously much more cautious.

He restrained his own breath, spread his consciousness, and began to look for the place mentioned by Elder Dugu. Elder Dugu was left on the mountain to "recover from his injuries", and out of "caring" for his subordinates, he specially arranged a fourth-level earth vein mysterious spirit formation outside the secret room where the other party was recuperating.

With the protection of the fourth-order formation, Elder Dugu will definitely feel at ease. He will no longer be afraid of being disturbed and can sleep peacefully.

As the acting sect leader, Chen Luo felt that he was really worried about the sect.

Qionghua Sect, Taixu Peak.

"Why is there a formation outside the recuperation ward?! It's a fourth-level formation."

The expression on Elder Dugu's face twisted into a ball of black mist, and his hands turned completely ink-black as he attacked the wooden door like a wild beast.

It’s a pity that there is a mysterious earth vein formation guarding outside this door.

As soon as his attack landed, it was transferred into the earth veins and disappeared. Elder Dugu in the room roared desperately like a wild beast.

He is trapped!

Chen Luo soon arrived at the location Dugu Jian told him. Below was a low valley, with a sword-like peak on the left, the top of which reached the clouds, and a slope on the right with several flat areas. Most of these flat areas were hidden in the poisonous miasma.

The place that Dugu Jian and Chen Luo talked about before is here.

Suspended in the air, Chen Luo did not rush forward.

It is impossible for him to rush forward when he knows there is something wrong with Elder Dugu. Unless he has an absolute advantage in strength, Chen Luo has always been cautious in doing things.

“Indeed not.”

Chen Luo withdrew his consciousness, and there was no surprise on his face. With Ning Chenye's character, it was impossible for him to stay where he was when he knew that the Qionghua disciples had discovered the inn.

After weighing the pros and cons for a moment, Chen Luo flew to the barren mountain next to him and landed.

He reached out and took out a handful of talismans from his storage bag, about seventy of them. They were all first-level talismans, and Chen Luo's storage bag was piled high with these talismans.

"Go down and take a look."

Sitting cross-legged on a high stone, Chen Luo raised his right hand.

The mountain breeze blew, and the talismans in his hand flew out like flowers scattered by a fairy. The power attached to the talismans was instantly manifested. A layer of flowing light appeared on the talismans flying in the air, and in the blink of an eye, they turned into talisman paper cranes, flapping their wings and flying towards the poisonous miasma below.

The talisman paper crane flew very fast and rushed into the poisonous miasma in the blink of an eye.

Chen Luo's consciousness was attached to it, and he clearly saw the scene hidden under the poisonous miasma. After passing through the thick white fog, there was a gray and dilapidated canyon below. A lot of dust was floating in the bottom of the valley, and the dust was like "haze", and the leaves around were also covered with this dust.

More than seventy paper cranes spread out like flying insects and began to search every detail in the valley.

laugh!

A muffled sound.

A spiritual talisman paper crane near the stone wall suddenly caught fire, and its body seemed to have hit something. This incident quickly attracted Chen Luo's attention, and he controlled the remaining paper cranes to fly over here.

sniff

There were several more sounds, and the burning spiritual talisman paper cranes fell from the sky. These paper cranes disappeared very abruptly, burning without any signs, not like hitting the wall, but hitting an invisible flame. This ball of flame kept floating, so it ignited the paper cranes in different places.

"Array? Not likely."

Chen Luo frowned slightly. In just a few breaths, most of the paper cranes he controlled were destroyed. There were only about twenty left hovering in the explored area.
