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 boss is gone?
The two people who followed behind suddenly stopped and then flew away at a faster speed. Especially the third physical cultivator who was going to deal with Chen Luo alone, his face was full of shock. Because he was a physical cultivator, he knew more clearly what level Chen Luo's palm was just now.
This is definitely not a power that a physical cultivator in the early stage of the Spiritual Transformation can release, and a physical cultivator in the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation cannot do it either.
Although the third brother can also call upon this level of power, he is in the late stage of transformation of spirit! He needs to call upon the "god" to do it, which is completely different from the casual attack of the person in front of him.
"Who are you?"
The female cultivator next to the third brother was also frightened by this palm. She was half a step slower than the eldest brother. If she had been a step faster, she would be the one being held in Chen Luo's hand now.
Such a powerful being could not be a newcomer who had just ascended from the lower realm. This person was most likely sent by other sects like the four brothers.
Chen Luo ignored the two of them. His right hand, which was holding the boss's head, continued to ooze out blue spiritual energy. The old man's vitality was even stronger than he expected. He didn't kill him with one palm strike! Although he didn't have much strength left, he was still struggling desperately, trying to escape from his hand.
"Let me go."
The old man opened his mouth and a trickle of blood flowed out, interrupting his words.
Snap!
Chen Luo was too lazy to listen to the rest of the words. He grabbed the head with one hand and twisted it in the opposite direction with the other hand. The sound of the cervical vertebra breaking was like green bamboo. The head was twisted off alive by him, and blood spurted out from the broken neck.
Holding the head in his hand, Chen Luo raised his foot and stepped on the headless corpse. The corpse, which had already been shattered into pieces by his spiritual power, instantly exploded into bloody foam.
"You despicable villain, I want you to pay with blood!!"
Suddenly, a flash of light passed by, and the old man's Nascent Soul flew out from the blood mist. The evil spirit turned into mist, and a silver bell flew out of the storage bag, making a deafening sound.
"careful!"
Puff
A hand reached out, five fingers folded together.
The old man's Nascent Soul exploded on the spot, and the silver bell next to it also lost its color, fell from the air, and landed in that hand.
A secret treasure of the soul, more valuable than a magic weapon, but not as valuable as a spiritual weapon.
Useless.
Chen Luo put the things away with disgust and glanced at the remaining soul of Bai Jiao.
"Be careful about what?"
"Nothing."
The remnant soul of Bai Jiao shuddered, and swallowed all the remaining words back into his stomach. He could see that the man in front of him was an old demon with cruel methods and special hobbies.
Twisting someone's head, is that something a normal person would do?
"Walk!"
The remaining three people were completely frightened by this scene. The boss who was in the late stage of the Spiritual Transformation and was proficient in spiritual attacks was gone just like that. The three of them were no better than the boss, and they would be committing suicide if they stayed.
The three figures instantly turned into light, and fled in different directions without any communication. The third one, who was shouting the most fiercely, used the blood escape technique on the spot, and the burning blood-red flames wrapped his entire body in it. The second female cultivator even burned her life and turned into black fire and disappeared.
These people are all old demons who have lived for more than two thousand years and know when to fight and when to escape.
"Not dead yet?"
Chen Luo ignored the three people and put his hand on the dead boss's skull. The familiar information did not appear, which made him feel something was wrong.
"Senior, those three people escaped. They are behind us."
"Just stay still and talk less."
The flower-backed turtle interrupted the voice of the white dragon's remnant soul with a look of disgust. He was dissatisfied with this guy's behavior of not choosing him. Now he felt that this white dragon had a flattering face and was a fool.
Upon hearing this, the white dragon immediately retracted its head back into the dragon ball.
Now he is just a remnant soul. If he is lucky, he can be reborn with the help of the Dragon Ball. If he is unlucky, his soul may be scattered.
Falling from the air, Chen Luo walked to the boss's remains.
bass.
A ball of spiritual fire flew out from his palm, burning the corpse that had fallen from the sky to ashes. This scene made Bai Jiao, who was hiding in the dragon ball, tremble again. He vaguely realized that this man and turtle did not seem to be good people.
It's like escaping from the wolf's den and falling into the tiger's mouth.
Hard life.
Ding-a-ling!
After waiting for a while, a bell suddenly rang outside. Curious, Bai Jiao carefully looked out and saw Chen Luo gathering the clean ashes together, digging a pit and filling it with soil, and began to ring the bell. He was even considerate enough to fill a mound of soil for the other party and erect a monument!
The movements were so skillful that Bai Jiao thought he was hallucinating.
“From dust to dust, from ashes to ashes”
Ringing a bell in one hand and scattering paper money in the other.
The remaining soul of the white dragon doubted the life of the dragon.
The sacrifice lasted for a long time before it was over. When Bai Jiao thought everything was over, he saw Chen Luo take out a gray ancient banner from his storage bag. The twisted gray evil spirit on the banner made him tremble instinctively.
Soul Refining Monk!!
Sensing the aura on the soul flag, the white dragon's head retracted into the dragon ball and began to tremble uncontrollably.
He had heard of the soul-refining monk's evil reputation.
Behind every famous soul-refining cultivator are countless lives. Nine out of ten cultivators who choose this path are crazy. Countless evil spirits will constantly corrode the brain. It is bearable for one or two years, but after hundreds or thousands of years, even the most determined cultivators will lose their minds.
The boss, with only a remnant soul left, noticed the movement, flew out of the mud with a "whoosh", and tried to counterattack.
"I'll fight you!!"
The soul flag swept past, and the sound stopped abruptly. The boss's residual soul was like a fly in front of the soul flag, and was swept into the soul flag in an instant, becoming a member of the army of evil spirits. However, his ferocity was obviously not as good as the old predecessors in front, so he could only be ranked relatively at the back, even worse than the master of the demon sect.
The army of evil spirits is expanding again.
After collecting the remaining soul, Chen Luo's right hand, which had been holding the boss's head, sensed a fluctuation.
'Contacted with the brain waves of a dead person, damage level 9%, do you want to read it?'
There were two more points of damage than a normal kill, which should have been caused by the previous palm strike. Fortunately, he withdrew his hand in time, so the damage was within an acceptable range.
A familiar interface appeared, bringing a smile to Chen Luo's face.
"That's right."
Gray gas poured in, and the boss's aura completely disappeared.
It is indeed difficult to kill cultivators after the Spiritualization Realm. In the past, to deal with enemies in the Nascent Soul Realm, you only needed to kill the physical body and crush the Nascent Soul to solve the problem. But after the Spiritualization Realm, crushing the Nascent Soul cannot kill the opponent immediately, and there is still a residual soul left, which needs to be killed to be completely solved.
This is also the second step in cultivating immortals, another change after entering the stage of refining the spirit.
After collecting the brains, Chen Luo turned his attention to the three people who had escaped. He had not chosen to chase them immediately before because he had not yet obtained the boss's brain. Only the brains of living people would not be collected, and this was the answer he had verified countless times.
Since the boss is not dead, he can't leave. If he blindly chases him, it is very likely that the boss's residual soul will escape. If the enemy is not killed, there will be hidden dangers. The current situation is much better. The strongest one among the four people has been dealt with by him. The remaining three are just grasshoppers in autumn, and they won't be able to jump for long.
It's only a matter of time to catch up.
"Brother, which one should we chase first? It seems like the people from the Star Gate are coming over here." The Flower-backed Tortoise glanced in the direction behind it, and the tortoise pattern behind it flickered.
The characteristics of the Life Turtle Clan made him sense the danger.
"Go after the puppeteer first."
In a flash of light, Chen Luo's figure turned into a rainbow, and he chased after the puppeteer who was the slowest among the three. This guy had his natal puppet killed by him before, and his soul was backfired, so his escape speed was the slowest among the three.
Shortly after the two of them disappeared, two figures fell from the sky.
They are the two star masters of the Star Gate.
Since the death of Tianquan Star Lord and Tianxuan Star Lord, the five remaining Star Lords of the Star Gate have joined together, and they always travel with at least two people. This ensures that they have the opportunity to seek help when facing an unbeatable enemy.
“It’s gone.”
"Two powerful auras fought here."
The Star Lord Yuheng sensed the lingering aura around him and frowned.
Since the three ancestors went into seclusion, the Star Region has become increasingly chaotic. As one of the seven Star Lords of the Star Gate, he can clearly feel the undercurrents surging below. Especially in recent years, chaos has occurred frequently and Star Lords have fallen, so much so that he now dares not go out alone.
As the Taoist master of the Dao Sect, he had never suffered such humiliation before.
“There’s something here.”
Tianji Star Lord found a piece of burnt rock from the ruins on the ground with some black powder on it. He stretched out his index finger and twisted it twice to confirm that it was ashes.
"Grind the bones and scatter the ashes, how big is this hatred?"
They have seen many cases of murder and robbery.
Chopping off a person's soul was a common method, but burning the enemy's body to ashes was the first time he had seen it. This was not a fight in the mortal world, so burning it to ashes would not have any effect. If he really wanted to investigate, the ashes could be revived.
"The more fierce the fight, the better! When the ancestor comes out of seclusion, I will refine them all into puppets."
The Star Lord Yuheng cursed angrily.
After checking the surroundings, the two of them took out the sect's secret treasure again, sensed the locked aura on it, and stood up again to chase after it.
The old ancestor has issued a death order, and this time he must kill the chicken to scare the monkey.
Even Master Snake has come out of seclusion. As long as they find the enemy, Master Snake will take care of the rest.
"I just killed one of your temporary subordinates. Do you think you have to keep chasing me?"
The puppeteer's heart is bleeding.
Sensing the two auras chasing from behind, the injuries that the puppeteer had suppressed with great difficulty began to ache again.
He didn't know how the situation had inexplicably developed into this. The four brothers were ambitious and were ready to take advantage of the decline of the Star Gate to grab a piece of the pie. To this end, they made a careful plan. The eldest brother also occupied the water palace of the Cold Water Pond in advance to hide their whereabouts.
When we first arrived in the Star Region, all plans went smoothly.
The four brothers took advantage of the chaos to grab a lot of benefits, looted a spiritual field of the Star Gate, and killed the Lord of Tianquan Star.
Everything is moving in the right direction.
Until the boss found a traitor, a traitor from the "Evergreen Sect". This small force whose name he had never heard of was naturally tortured and his soul was searched and refined. After that, the four of them found the Bear King City based on the memory of this traitor and killed a subordinate of the Evergreen Sect leader as a warning.
A temporary subordinate! (End of this chapter)
