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...
The palace maid picked up the pen, and when the last stroke was put down, a layer of strange waves dissipated from the tip of the pen, and then disappeared.
Only after she had done all this did the maid look at Chen Luo again. Chen Luo had not stopped her from casting the curse just now, which was also a statement of his position. Since they were not enemies, it meant there was room for negotiation. Maybe there would be room for cooperation between the two in the future.
"Le Qingzhu."
After putting away the straw man and the talisman pen, the palace maid introduced herself.
"Mr. Chen Shan, the acting leader of the Heart Demon Sect."
Chen Luo also introduced himself very sincerely.
He felt that the Heart Demon Sect would be his sooner or later, so it was reasonable for him to be given the title of acting sect leader in advance.
"Fellow Daoist Chen is from the Heart Demon Sect?"
Le Qingzhu ignored Chen Luo's behavior of claiming to be the acting leader. He glanced at him and noticed the clothes he was wearing. Although he had been expelled from the sect by the Heart Demon Sect's leader Tu Cheng, Chen Luo still wore the Heart Demon Sect's clothes when he went out.
In this way, even if someone commits a crime, others will find the Xinmo Sect, and the main focus is on loyalty to the sect.
"But as far as I know, there is no such person as Chen Shanren in the Heart Demon Sect, let alone the position of acting sect leader."
"The status is too high, and ordinary disciples can't get in touch with it. It's normal that you haven't heard of it."
Chen Luo was full of emotion. He ignored the issue of his identity and forced the topic to shift to the curse power just now.
"I am very interested in the 'Book of Life and Death' you just released."
"I can give you this secret technique, but there is a request." How could Le Qingzhu not understand such straightforward and shameless words.
In her opinion, anyone who asks for something is someone she can cooperate with.
What I fear most is people who have no desires.
"I haven't seen you, understand!"
Chen Luo had an expression that said, "I'm just passing by." This made Le Qingzhu hold back what she hadn't finished saying. She looked at the man in front of her with suspicion. Whenever she wanted to kill, the spiritual weapon in her body would remind her of the danger.
After several such incidents, Le Qingzhu completely gave up the idea of a sneak attack.
"Are you really a disciple of the Heart Demon Sect?"
"Acting head, I will become the official head after Tu Cheng dies."
"I don't know if you are the acting leader, but it is true that you are a shameless person."
Le Qingzhu took out the secret book of "Book of Life and Death" passed down to her by her master and asked Chen Luo to look through it in front of her. It was impossible to take it away. This kind of inherited secret technique was very precious, and the most important thing was the "Visualization Map". This kind of artistic conception map is often unique and can be considered a solitary copy. Chen Luo also obtained a copy when he was in the lower world. He got it from Xue Ning, and the original owner was a centipede demon.
There is an ancient immortal painted on the artistic conception picture.
Chen Luo had also tried to comprehend it, but did not figure out anything useful. Brother Changqing's brain gave feedback, saying that the secret technique on the painting was inherited from ghost cultivators. After that, Chen Luo never looked at it again, and the scroll was thrown into his storage bag, gathering dust.
"I'll only give you half a minute."
Le Qingzhu held the secret book in his hand, opened the first page and said to Chen Luo.
If she hadn't sensed the dangerous aura from the other party, Le Qingzhu would not have agreed to the deal. The aura of this 'Mr. Chen' was very strange, and she was afraid that if she refused, the other party would come and 'take' it by himself, and then the initiative might not be in her hands.
Chen Luo quickly flipped through the secret techniques in Le Qingzhu's hand and finished reading them in just a moment.
More than thirty brains proficient in curses recorded every detail of the secret technique together, even the last "visualization picture" was not missed. However, Chen Luo soon felt something was wrong, and as soon as he closed his eyes, the visualization picture in his mind froze.
What Chen Luo saw was a judge sitting in the underworld, with a black beard and white face, holding a black pen in his hand.
But the other external brains saw different things from him. Some saw a bull's head, some saw a horse's face, and some saw the Black and White Impermanence, ghosts holding iron chains, etc. The leader of the Seeding Demon Sect saw a shackle, a shackle that locked the souls of the dead.
'original!'
Hatred fed back a thought.
"The visualization picture is a curse. You are tainted with the breath of the underworld."
Brother Changqing gave a reminder.
They both read the "Book of Life and Death", but the contents recorded were different. Qiu Yuan saw a lonely boat in the underworld, with a man wearing a bamboo hat and holding a lonely lamp. Under the boat was turbid river water, covering countless dead souls. Chang Qing saw a Senluo Palace, in which there was a figure wearing a black robe and a pearl curtain crown. This figure looked down at the evil spirits with an indifferent look.
curse?
The technique is a curse?!
This was the first time Chen Luo encountered such a strange technique. But since he had already learned it, he naturally could not back down. Brother Changqing did not give any warning, which meant that the curse on the "Visualization Diagram" was not fatal.
"Did you finish reading it?"
Le Qingzhu looked at Chen Luo with suspicion.
It only took about ten breaths to read from the first page to the last page. Although the formula of the "Book of Life and Death" is not long, it is not easy to remember it so quickly, especially since it also involves the "Visualization Diagram".
"You can go now."
Chen Luo was pondering this new curse power. Judging from the brain feedback from Brother Changqing and Qiuyuan, the level of this secret technique should not be low.
Le Qingzhu put away the secret scroll, picked up the cursed straw man on the table, and looked at Chen Luo again.
Suddenly, I feel that this person might be able to cooperate with her. Now Mo Shanjun and the ghost cultivation forces behind Huangquan Ferry have come into conflict.
"This is my communication symbol. We may meet again in the future."
Chen Luo caught it with one hand, and an inky black jade talisman fell into his hand.
This woman is indeed a rich woman. The communication talismans are all made of third-level black jade! This is not an ordinary material. The light in the eyes of Chen Luo, who is also a talisman master, has changed a little. Le Qingzhu on the opposite side seemed to have sensed the change in Chen Luo. His figure quickly pulled away, turned into a pool of black gas, trembled in a circle, and disappeared in the yard, leaving only one sentence echoing in the air.
"You are not a good person. I have to be careful of you next time we meet."
"So urgent?"
A trace of regret flashed across Chen Luo's eyes.
Once, a rich woman with three spiritual weapons and a lot of treasures appeared in front of him, but he missed it. If he was given another chance, he would still not be able to catch this woman.
'Space Spirit Tool, Sensor Spirit Tool'
Although Le Qingzhu did not reveal himself, Brother Changqing still caught his breath. As Chen Luo repeatedly dug graves to borrow brains, Brother Changqing became more and more active, and he "knew" more and more things. This unique characteristic far exceeded all the brains in Chen Luo.
"I only have a storage magic device, which was used by Brother Changqing to store wine."
The number of spiritual tools is extremely rare, and many sects' masters do not have spiritual tools. The two major sects, the Shadow Eater Sect and the Ten Thousand Immortals Island, do not have spiritual tools. When in the lower world, the Shadow Eater Sect spent thousands of years for the spiritual tool gourd in Chen Luo's hand, and in the end, it was intercepted by Chen Luo.
His conflict with the Shadow Eater Sect started from that time.
This also shows how precious spiritual weapons are. Le Qingzhu owns three of them, so his background and origin are obvious.
The figure flashed, the afterimage dissipated, and Chen Luo's figure also disappeared.
After separating from Le Qingzhu, Chen Luo found the chief elder of the Heart Demon Sect in a kitchen deep in the palace. This old man was very cautious, claiming to be in seclusion in Guangluyuan, but in fact he was hiding in the kitchen. If Chen Luo had not had a consciousness far beyond that of an ordinary Nascent Soul, he might not have been able to find him.
"It really is cursed."
Outside the house, Chen Luo hid in a tree, and his spiritual sense could see the Heart Demon Sect's great elder inside clearly.
There was a wisp of black curse between the other party's eyebrows.
The great elder Qi Le was a middle-aged, obese man wearing an apricot-yellow shirt, with his big belly half exposed, and his bald head was shiny. His earlobes were different from those of ordinary people, and they were as conspicuous as two pendants.
In the Heart Demon Sect, Qi Le is the strongest person except for the sect leader Tu Cheng.
But in Chen Luo's eyes at this moment, Qi Le's strength was very ordinary, and the oppression he gave him was not as strong as that of the red skirt woman. If Chen Luo wanted to, he could kill him now. However, Chen Luo did not make a move. He came here to find experimental materials. His original plan was to "reversely take over" the elder Qi Le. However, after seeing the black air condensed between the other party's eyebrows, he gave up this idea.
This person has been cursed by the Book of Life and Death.
Chen Luo, who had learned the Book of Life and Death, could tell at a glance that this person would not live long. Retracting his gaze, Chen Luo did not look at this person again, but turned to the other side, captured a lone elder, and used his magical powers to transform him.
The more you use it, the easier it will be to release.
The elder who was transformed was named Qi Xiao, the cousin of the great elder Qi Le, and he was at the early stage of the Nascent Soul stage. Their family had two powerful Nascent Soul masters, and with such a strong background, the Qi family had an extraordinary position in the Heart Demon Sect. Except for the Sect Master, the Qi family was fearless, and among those who suppressed the sect of the third generation leader in the past, there were people from the Qi family.
"Master!"
Qi Xiao looked at Chen Luo with fanaticism.
Chen Luo did not do anything to him, he just changed his loyalty to the great elder Qi Le to himself. It was a simple replacement that only required the cooperation of five brains to complete.
"Keep an eye on things inside the sect. If there are any problems, report to Hu Si."
"yes."
"Let's go to the treasury."
"Come with me!"
Upon hearing this, Qi Xiao immediately led the way.
With Elder Qi Xiao leading the way, Chen Luo had no problems along the way, but he was a little surprised by the poverty of the treasury. The Heart Demon Stones stored in it were not as good as his, and the magic tools were only of the first or second level. The elixirs, talismans, and materials were all low-level, and there were very few of the third level.
"The precious things are all carried by the sect master. The resources here are used to reward the disciples who complete the tasks."
Seeing that Chen Luo was somewhat dissatisfied, Qi Xiao immediately stepped forward to explain.
"No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat and should not be wasted." (End of this chapter)
