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 440 The Third Bone Pattern

"You are the leader he mentioned in the early stage of Nascent Soul?"

Yue Yijian's face was cold.

His method of taking over a body was halfway done, but it was destroyed by this person at the most critical moment. If it were in the past, he would definitely teach this person a lesson. The Nascent Soul Realm is also divided into different levels, and the Great Monks are the strongest among the Nascent Soul Realm.

When Yue Yijian was at his peak, he had killed quite a few people of the same level.

In his opinion, although the aura of Chen Luo was a little strange, under his eyes, all the hidden things were clearly visible.

"We in the Changqing Sect are open-minded and we welcome talents from all walks of life. I wonder if you are interested in joining us?"

"Get out now and I'll spare your life."

Yue Yijian suppressed his anger. He didn't want to waste his remaining life on a boring fight. Even if he could win in the end, it would be meaningless to him.

Chen Luo sighed. He really wanted to have a good exchange with Yue Yijian. It was hard to find a great cultivator at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. He could help him do a lot of things by recruiting him. If he was lucky, he could even provide him with some new ideas.

Just looking at Yue Yijian's attitude, Chen Luo had no choice but to give up this plan and prepare to turn around and ask his brain directly.

"Looking at your appearance, you probably don't have much time left to live, right?"

He stretched out his hand, and a fat poisonous insect appeared in his hand.

To deal with this dying old guy, fighting is the lowest method. Chen Luo has a better choice.

For example, asking him to 'borrow' some life.

"Borrowing Life Gu?!"

Yue Yijian's face changed drastically, and his hand, which was originally on the little girl's head, was raised instantly. All the true energy in his body gathered at one point and slapped it towards Chen Luo.

He only has two or three years left to live. If he borrows some from this life-borrowing Gu, then there will really be no tomorrow!

The fat life-borrowing insect shook its butt and opened its mouth to suck into the void.

An invisible aura flew out from Yue Yijian.

"wait"

Yue Yijian, who had just gathered his strength, turned pale and opened his mouth to beg for mercy, but he only had time to say one word before he died. His body shook twice and fell to the ground with a bang. A decayed and desolate aura emanated from his body.

His life span.

All of it was borrowed.

In the eyes of cultivators who are about to die, the most terrifying thing is not the magical power or the killing move, but the strange insect called the Life-Borrowing Gu which is related to lifespan.

This insect, like the Soul-Bonding Gu, was a rare and superior insect in Chen Luo's hands. In comparison, the other two centipedes were much worse, and they were useless except for eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. Chen Luo was even considering whether to crush the two centipedes into medicine and feed them to the Life-Borrowing Gu and the Soul-Bonding Gu.

"One year and three months?"

After sensing the lifespan feedback from the Life-Borrowing Gu, Chen Luo couldn't help but reveal a hint of disgust on his face.

"Dead?"

Hu Shan and the little girl looked at the corpse in front of them with shock, not knowing what Chen Luo had done.

Hu Shan, who had recovered from his shock, quickly turned around and ran over to pick up his daughter. At this time, the little girl had not yet recovered from her shock. The extremely powerful "evil man" in her eyes, the enemy that even her father could not deal with, died inexplicably.

"Dead."

Chen Luo looked back at the little girl and smiled. The little girl felt embarrassed to be stared at and hid her head back in her father's arms.

"Thank you for saving my life, Master."

Hu Shan didn't know about the Life-Borrowing Gu, let alone the List of Strange Insects.

Before Chen Luo promoted him, he was just a foundation-building cultivator. If he had not met Chen Luo, he might not have found the way to form a golden core in his life and would have been an outer disciple in the Heart Demon Sect for the rest of his life.

"Thank you, Uncle Master."

The little girl hurriedly thanked him when she heard this. Both of her parents were foundation-building cultivators. She was born with extremely high aptitude. At the age of seven, she had already reached the late stage of Qi Refining. According to this speed, she would reach the perfection of Qi Refining in five years at most.

Although this was due to the abundant spiritual energy in the upper realm, the girl's own qualifications were also terrifying enough. Chen Luo felt that even his eldest disciple Mu Xiaoyu in the lower realm might not be as good as this girl.

"Go back first, I still have some things to deal with here."

Chen Luo responded and set his sights on the 'possession' pattern in the room.

"yes."

Hu Shan, who had escaped death, was also very tired. After thanking him, he quickly retreated with his daughter in his arms. After being imprisoned by Yue Yijian for so long, he planned to take his daughter back to have a good rest. He must not let his daughter have any psychological trauma.

In the room, Chen Luo walked to the table and touched the bloodstain on it with his index finger.

Inside the external brain, the old fox in the inn's brain quickly became active.

"The bone pattern of our clan!"

When the word "bone pattern" was mentioned, Chen Luo clearly sensed an emotion called "hatred". The old fox's brain did not have the corresponding memory, but he instinctively felt "hatred", as if there was some forgotten memory stirring deep in his brain.

"Bone pattern?"

Chen Luo had no interest at first, but when he heard about bone patterns, he instantly became interested.

The bone patterns he had encountered so far in his practice were extremely rare, and there were only two bone patterns in the Demon Bone Array Pattern Art. The first one was obtained from Zhu Chungang, which was a great demon bone pattern with both strength and defense. The second bone pattern was a thunder pattern that he snatched from the heavenly tribulation. The body possession bone pattern was the third bone pattern he encountered!

Following the blood-colored veins, Chen Luo mobilized the fox demon's brain and began to engrave the veins on it.

After a while, a pattern similar to a fox face appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness. This fox face was different from ordinary foxes. There were three evenly distributed marks on both sides of the cheeks. The marks were broken in the middle, but intact at the top and bottom. Upon closer inspection, you would find that there were small words engraved on these broken marks.

The writing of the fox clan.

Chen Luo didn’t know him.

'Life', 'Death', 'Underworld'.

The old fox in the inn helped Chen Luo decipher the meaning of the text. He had no memory of the past, but the fox's instinct allowed him to remember these things engraved in his bones. It was like the blood inheritance of the demon clan. He didn't need to understand it, he knew it innately.

"These three words again?"

Chen Luo was stunned for a moment, remembering the marks on the red-dressed woman and the pale-faced male cultivator.

He had previously thought that this mark was the mark of the Huangquan Ferry, but now it seems that this is not the case. The Huangquan Ferry is more complicated than he guessed. The old fox clan was exterminated because of their innate ability to possess bodies. This news is not a secret in the upper realm. As the leader for such a long time, Chen Luo has read a lot of information about the fox clan. In addition, with the help of the fox demon brain to record, it is difficult for him to forget.

It was precisely because he remembered that he found it difficult.

Including the girl in the red dress before, this is the third one.

His bond with this unknown force grew deeper and deeper.

"The secret technique of taking over another's body."

Walking to Yue Yijian's body, Chen Luo took out a jade slip from him. There were many densely packed records on it, all of which were Yue Yijian's records for the past thirty years. Each paragraph represented a life, and one paragraph was only half recorded. It should be the record made by Yue Yijian before he took action, corresponding to Hu Shan and his daughter.

"The secret method is recorded quite completely, but it's a pity that it's of no use to me."

After recording the contents, Chen Luo crushed the jade slip in his hand, collected Yue Yijian's brain, and did not drop his storage bag. It was a pity that Yue Yijian's Nascent Soul had dissipated. For a cultivator whose life span had been exhausted, it was considered a normal sitting death in the judgment of heaven and earth. The Nascent Soul would dissipate into heaven and earth and return to its origin.

This is also the fate of all monks who have passed away in meditation.

After cleaning up all this, he took out the soul flag to collect the remaining souls, took out a shovel and put on deerskin gloves.

I haven't done this process for a long time, so the techniques are a bit unfamiliar.

Only after dealing with all the follow-up matters did Chen Luo get up with peace of mind.

The body was burned very cleanly, and the corpse that sat on its own was like dry firewood, igniting at a touch. Next year, this piece of land will surely be very fertile, and maybe a big tree will grow out of it.

"The idea of ​​the secret technique is very good, it can take over people's bodies and change their fate."

On the way back to the seventh city, Chen Luo once again thought about the method of possessing another's body.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to his mind, and a thought came back to him from a genius brain.

"Practicing forward means taking away the body, and practicing backward means taking away the soul. My subordinates are so weak now, can we use this method to improve their understanding? For example, 'take away' a brain from them, 'take away' some soul."

Once the thought comes into being, it can no longer be suppressed.

After returning to the Seventh City, Chen Luo began his attempt that night.

Half a year later.

The disturbance in the Heart Demon Sect suddenly subsided, and the Seventh Elder Black Robe and the Great Elder reached a reconciliation. There was only one reason why the two sides could temporarily shake hands and make peace, and that was the greater pressure from outside.

Chen Luo is still doing his job in the Seventh City.

Black Robe kept his promise and took care of the disciples for his old friend. In recent years, he basically never sent anyone to disturb Chen Luo. He stopped all the dirty things in the sect, so that Chen Luo could cultivate his mind here with peace of mind.

Until today, this peace was finally broken.

The people from Huangquan Ferry came and asked to see him by name.

"It's really not easy to meet with Master Chen."

In the reception room of Wenxiang Pavilion, Chen Luo and the visitor from Huangquan Ferry sat opposite each other. On the table in front of them was a cup of freshly brewed spiritual tea, which exuded a refreshing fragrance.

This man's name is Lu Jian. He is the strongest person at Huangquan Ferry except for the Green Ghost King. His status is equivalent to that of an elder of the Heart Demon Sect.

"I am just an ordinary leader. There are many disciples of my level in the sect."

Chen Luo responded with a smile.

He knew that this person was talking about the problem of the black robe blocking the way, but such a thing could not be said openly. Instead, the power of Huangquan Ferry made him alert. Being able to make the black robe compromise meant that the power of Huangquan Ferry overwhelmed the Heart Demon Sect, forcing this group of old stubborn people to make concessions.

"I came to see Master Chen mainly to inquire about something."

Lu Jian did not beat around the bush. He reached out and took out a jade slip, and tapped the surface of the jade slip with his index finger.

Spiritual power flashed, and the face of the woman in the red dress emerged.

"I wonder if you have seen this person?" (End of this chapter)
