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 578 The Road You Dare Not Take

Chen Luo came back to his senses. He picked up the teacup, used the lid to push away the tea leaves floating on top, blew on it twice, and then took a sip. A bitter taste filled his mouth, and after swirling around twice, it turned into sweetness.

As it goes down the swallow, the warm current slowly turns into spiritual energy and begins to affect the speed at which the spiritual energy from the outside world gathers.

It's magical tea.

Considering the status of the Zhang family, it took a lot of thought to prepare this level of spiritual tea to entertain him.

"I am not the registered disciple of the Venerable."

As soon as these words came out, the expression on the face of the Zhang family master who was sitting next to him froze. He didn't expect Chen Luo to be so direct, and he confessed directly after a test! When he thought of his niece's investment in this person, he couldn't help but feel blood dripping in his heart.

A large part of these investments were provided by their Zhang family.

"The old man just liked to ask me to chop bamboo when he had nothing to do before, but I refused."

Before the Zhang family patriarch could speak, Chen Luo, who had just finished his tea, continued.

The head of the Zhang family felt a tightness in his chest, and the anger that had just been suppressed was immediately suppressed. His face, which had changed half, turned into a smiling face again.

"I see."

Judging from these two sentences, the relationship between Chen Luo and Venerable Ku Chai may be closer than the rumors outside. It is the first time he has seen someone who dares to call Venerable Ku Chai an old man within the Ancient God Sect.

In the eyes of these people, Venerable Fanxu is no different from a god.

No one has dared to spread rumors about Venerable Fanxu. There has never been one before, and I believe there won’t be one in the future.

"That's it. Remember to pack some for me. I'll pack it up."

Chen Luo stood up and walked out without paying attention to the reactions of the Zhang family. The head of the Zhang family was immediately anxious when he heard this. Why did he leave before he made his request? He stood up quickly and released his Jindan realm cultivation. He pulled the vitality of the heaven and earth around him, trying to slow down Chen Luo's pace.

"Fellow Daoist, please stay"

Buzz!!

As he was speaking, a stronger aura descended from the sky. The little bit of heaven and earth energy that the Zhang family master had borrowed was directly crushed into debris under the influence of this force, and even the main hall of their Zhang family was shattered into ruins.

All the elders in the house, including Ling Dong and others who came to test Chen Luo, were all knocked to the ground by this force.

"What's going on?"

The Zhang family elders were horrified, not knowing what had happened. They didn't even know how the main hall collapsed. They lay on the ground and vaguely saw Chen Luo walking out of the hall and stepping into the void.

"Is this the true method of the God Transformation Ancestor?!"

The head of the Zhang family looked horrified. As a Jindan cultivator, he could sense more than others. He could clearly feel that the properties of the surrounding heaven and earth energy had all changed, turning into wind-attributed spiritual power. These spiritual powers turned into wind pressure, pressing down from above like a mountain.

The Zhang family's reception room was crushed by this force.

He raised his head with difficulty and vaguely saw a blurry figure. The figure was standing in the air, looking down at them like a god.

There was no deliberate targeting, the other party just released a little breath casually.

That's all.

"This person actually has the God-Transforming Ancestor following him?! We are careless. His identity cannot be as simple as the registered disciple of the Venerable Kuchai. He is very likely a direct descendant of the Venerable Kuchai, or even a blood relative!"

The head of the Zhang family's brain raced, and he suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He understood the whole thing and his eyes gleamed with wisdom.

This is the truth!

The same thing happened to Ling Dong and the others who were pressed to the ground behind him. However, compared to the fear of the Zhang family, they were more excited. The appearance of the God Transformation Patriarch proved Chen Luo's identity and confirmed that their investment over the years was not in vain.

But when he thought of the previous tests he and his friends had made, he couldn't help but feel panicky again.

"As monks, we should have this attitude."

The flower-backed tortoise is carried on one hand, looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle. The wind-attributed spiritual power blows the hem of his clothes, making him look aloof and independent, like an immortal walking out of a painting.

In order to show his care, he deliberately let Zhang Xi go, making her the only person qualified to stand on the field. I believe that after this, no one in the Zhang family will dare to embarrass Zhang Xi again, and the little trouble involving the eldest brother has also been solved once and for all by him.

Chen Luo ignored the flower-backed turtle.

Having spent so much time together, he knows the flower-backed turtle's personality very well.

He bullies the weak and fears the strong, and is a bit of a show-off.

When facing the weak, he punches hard. When facing the strong, he shrinks down.

Tea mountain.

After leaving the city where the Zhang family was, Chen Luo followed the information given to him by Ding Jian and came to the Gray Stone Mountains behind. There were tea trees all over the mountains, and the diamond-shaped leaves swayed in the wind, emitting a mist-like aura.

'White Spirit Stone Tea, fresh, trace amounts of toxins.'

'You can stir-fry it with Gengjin fire, add the freezing point tick comprehensive toxicity, stir-fry Panax notoginseng, and use it as medicine.'

The moment his palm touched the tea leaves, the corresponding cognition quickly emerged in the medicine boy's brain. Also emerging was the method of extracting to remove the toxicity. These were the habits left over from the medicine boy's brain before his death.

Use your right hand to pick a leaf from the tea tree.

The leaves are very hard, the edges are like metal, and there are black needles at the sharp corners. The trace toxins that the medicine boy's brain recognizes are contained in these four black needles.

"The ingredients are correct, it should be here."

Chen Luo put the leaves into his mouth and chewed them a little. A numbing feeling came into his mouth, and the trace amount of toxin was wiped out by the "spirit" of his body before it could penetrate.

Passing by the tea trees, Chen Luo walked all the way to the innermost part.

There is a gray-white cave here, and Ding Jian found the location of the stone here. Chen Luo raised his foot and was about to go in when he suddenly felt a spiritual power fluctuation. The rich wood-attributed spiritual power around the tea mountain, under the influence of this power, silently changed into a thin metallic needle and pierced towards the back of his neck.

bite!

When the fine needle of spiritual power touched Chen Luo's skin, it was like a bamboo stick touching an iron plate, breaking into two pieces on the spot.

Chen Luo paused and his eyes narrowed.

His consciousness immediately found the person who attacked him, but the aura of this person reminded him of Venerable Kuchai. But this person was definitely not Venerable Kuchai. With the strength of Venerable Kuchai in the Return to Void Realm, he would not use such means if he really wanted to plot against him.

Chen Luo, who realized the problem, quickly restrained his breath, screamed, and fell into the cave.

There was no murderous intent on the spiritual steel needle that had attacked him just now. That was to say, the purpose of the attacker behind him was not to kill him. This made Chen Luo a little curious. He was a junior in the foundation-building stage, practicing quietly in the mountains, not causing trouble, so how could there be trouble?

"Dead? That shouldn't be the case."

Under the tea tree, a mass of gray soil emerged from the ground. He looked at the place where Chen Luo disappeared and frowned subconsciously.

He remembered that he had not been so harsh.

The original purpose was just to leave a mark on this person and prepare for the subsequent plot against Ku Chai.

"never mind."

The figure wanted to go over and check, but before he could move, two auras of the Transformation Realm came from afar. Although he was not afraid, he did not want to expose his whereabouts now, so he could only hide quickly, and his body turned into soil again, slowly blending into the dust.

Two streams of light fell from the sky.

The people who came were Ding Jian and Yuwen Ling. Chen Luo had sent a message to them when he came here. The collection of stone materials was related to Chen Luo's subsequent practice. These trivial matters would be handed over to the two of them in the future. Originally, Chen Luo wanted to explain it to them in person, and didn't want someone to suddenly show up and disrupt the situation.

Before figuring out the enemy's purpose, Chen Luo prepared to be cautious.

He had finally managed to sneak into the Ancient God Sect and live a peaceful life, and he didn't want his peace to be disrupted. This time he had made up his mind to develop slowly! Everything should be stable.

"Master?"

Ding Jian and Yuwen Ling did not feel the previous person. After they landed, they quickly sensed Chen Luo in the cave and walked over quickly.

"You are"

"fine."

Chen Luo sat at the entrance of the cave, sensing with his spiritual sense that the person who attacked him was moving away quickly. This was the benefit of spiritual sense suppression, the other party was within his perception from beginning to end.

"Arrange more people to come over and hurry up to collect the gray stone, white spirit stone tea and black leaf spirit flower."

"yes."

The two didn't understand what was going on, but their values, which had been brainwashed by the reverse possession method, made them believe in Chen Luo unconditionally.

Ancient God Sect.

Back mountain.

The forest looks even more desolate under the setting sun.

The Ku Chai Venerable, dressed in old linen clothes, was like an old farmer, chopping bamboo with an axe on the mountainside. The crisp sound echoed through the forest, and the flying wood chips and the reflection of the felled trees were reflected on the ground, forming a picture.

"Ran Huo died?"

The sound of footsteps broke the silence, and a young man in a green robe walked out from behind the woods. This man looked very similar to Venerable Kuchai, and at first glance he looked like a younger version of Venerable Kuchai, but a closer look revealed something wrong.

Because the aura on him is completely different from that of Venerable Kuchai.

The Venerable Ku Chai ignored the man and continued chopping bamboo. He chopped very seriously, and when the axe blade fell, it always landed precisely in one place. From time to time, wood chips flew out of the broken bamboo, and a large part of them stuck to the Venerable Ku Chai's body, making him look gray.

"I also heard that you accepted another disciple?"

Ku Chai paused, put down the axe in his hand, stood up, turned around and looked at the young man behind him.

"Don't seek death."

"When we meet, brothers, you threaten me with death as soon as you open your mouth?"

The visitor laughed out loud, as if he was happy that he had found Kuchai's weakness. Venerable Kuchai said nothing and continued to chop bamboo with the axe beside him. He had no idea how many times he had experienced such a conversation.

"Ten years later, I will open the 'Black Bamboo Forest'. I will help you walk the path you dare not walk on" (End of this chapter)
