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 661: Too Strong

“I didn’t expect there were so many corpses out there, and they’ve been turned into an industry.”

The snake demon's right hand was stroking the skull in his hand. This was a skull left by a bird demon. The originally rough bone patterns were smoothed by him and polished to a shiny finish. After learning about Chen Luo's hobby, he also began to imitate it. The skull in his hand was the one that Chen Luo didn't want.

"Not every monster is qualified to be buried in the ancestral tomb."

Sun Chi sat next to him, yawning out of boredom.

The position of the demon saint was determined, and the demon race's turbulent period ended. The tomb-guarding demon race that had developed secretly naturally lay dormant and could no longer infiltrate as recklessly as before.

"I don't know what the real person wants these bones for."

"If you're interested, just go and ask in person."

Sun Chi was too lazy to raise his head.

During this period, he went to receive "guidance" from a real person every ten days. He was very excited at the beginning, but after such a long period of "guidance", he almost had a psychological trauma, and he didn't want to think about anything about Chen Luo.

"Forget it."

When Xu Zhi thought of Chen Luo, he felt pain all over his body, and the curiosity that had just arisen disappeared in an instant.

Dudu

A paper crane appeared outside the window, pecking at the window paper with its beak.

This is the communication talisman that Chen Luo gave them, which can perfectly avoid the surveillance of the monsters in the mountains. During this time outside, they used paper cranes to communicate.

Xu Zhi walked over and opened the window, and the paper crane quickly flapped its wings and flew in.

"I found a special genius in the elephant demon clan who may meet the requirements of a real person."

As soon as it fell into his palm, the paper crane spontaneously combusted, and the information inside was also transmitted to Xu Zhi's mind.

A genius that meets the requirements of a real person?

Xu Zhi instantly became alert, and even Sun Chi next to him looked over. During this period of time, they had been searching outside for the tasks assigned by Chen Luo, but there were too few people who met the requirements. To be precise, the threshold for geniuses set by Chen Luo was too high, so high that even with so many graves outside, they couldn't find one.

"Elephant monster? Can those big guys also be geniuses?"

The elephant demon is not one of the twelve demon tribes, but one of the twenty-four forces that are lower than the twelve demon tribes. The force that Bai Lingling infiltrated is one of the twenty-four forces.

Sun Chi stood up. He had also read the message conveyed by the paper crane.

"Go and take a look. If you can find a corpse that meets the requirements, you will be more confident the next time you ask the real person for the elixir."

The two monsters made a decision immediately. After hiding their bodies, they flew together towards where the elephant monster was.

It was raining in the valley.

Chen Luo sat in the pavilion.

The aura on his body was ethereal, as if it had merged with the outside world. Rainwater slid down the eaves of the pavilion like a beaded curtain. In the middle of the pavilion was a chessboard with only one chess piece on it, a diamond-shaped chess piece.

Chen Luo knows how to play chess.

There are more than a thousand external brains, and there are many chess masters among them. He can easily handle all kinds of chess games. However, he himself does not like this way of playing chess. In his opinion, swinging people with a chessboard is also a kind of "chess".

No one says that you have to sit there quietly and play chess.

The chess pieces collided with the stone chessboard, making a crisp sound. In the distant pond, a few fish that had just been released shivered and instinctively hid in the corner of the pond. These fish were released by Butterfly Girl when she came over a few days ago.

This valley was originally her place of practice, and her years of habits could not be changed in a short time.

The rain is getting heavy again.

The tomb of the Butterfly Girl is a complete small world. The array pattern above simulates the sun, moon, stars, and the four seasons of cold and warm. This is why Chen Luo chose this place. Compared with other places, this place is more like a place for human cultivation.

Chen Luo was going to leave once his cultivation was stabilized. His purpose of coming to the demon tribe had been achieved. He said goodbye to Su Linlin before leaving. After cultivating to his level, he had fewer and fewer old friends, and every one of them was worth cherishing.

There were a few more chess piece sounds, and Chen Luo stopped what he was doing.

'The six desires and seven emotions are hard to give up.'

The idea of ​​Changqing suddenly came to his mind. Chen Luo's hand holding the chess piece was suspended in mid-air, and the world in his eyes was twisted like cotton candy. A strange sound appeared in his ears, and the world he saw turned into a twisted object like a ball of thread.

The colors are so bright and exaggerated, without any excessive gray, which gives people a strange sense of aesthetic fatigue.

"That's great! I finally broke through to the Return to Void Realm. I can live for seven thousand years and look forward to eternal life."

Across from the cotton-like pavilion, there was an extra person. A person made of a ball of thread. He sat across from the chess table. The originally square stone chess table had now turned into a strange circle. The tabletop was filled with red, green, and blue circles, which looked like the annual rings of an old tree. The chess pieces on it had also turned into colorful saplings.

The ball of yarn man smiled happily.

Even Chen Luo could feel that joy, and he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

"The joys of life should be made clear."

The string man raised his head, and the twisted and messy face became extremely clear the moment he raised his head. The exaggerated colors faded, and the string man opposite him turned into a face exactly the same as Chen Luo.

There was also a smile on his face, with the corners of his mouth raised.

"happiness?"

Chen Luo looked at the ball of thread man, sizing him up and down.

“The joy of life is human nature.”

The thread ball man has the same face as Chen Luo, and even his voice is the same.

Bang!

The chessboard in front of him suddenly flipped over, and the chess pieces flew off. Chen Luo's hand holding the chessboard smashed into the face of the ball of string man. The colorful ball of string suddenly exploded, radiating and splashing everywhere. The world once again turned into a bunch of twisted lines. The picture that had just stabilized began to ripple again, and the ripples spread out like ripples, like a lake with a stone thrown into it.

It turns out that Daliqidao is more suitable for me.

Chen Luo withdrew his hand and a thought flashed through his mind.

The string man is not a real life, he is the materialized desire after Chen Luo broke through to the Return to Void realm. Only those who have reached the Return to Void realm will encounter this kind of trouble. In the eyes of cultivators at this realm, the boundary between the virtual and the real is not particularly obvious.

The more powerful the cultivator is, the easier it is to lose himself.

It is not easy to keep one's original intention.

Cultivation is the cultivation of the mind.

When the ripples calmed down, the surrounding scenery returned to normal. The pavilion was still the pavilion, the chessboard was still the chessboard, and even the chess pieces on it had not moved. The chessboard in his hand also became a chess piece.

He still maintained the same chess moves as before.

"Red Dust."

Chen Luo frowned.

The five of Die Nu had not encountered this kind of trouble. It was unknown whether it was because their Return to Void level was too low or because of congenital defects. Chen Luo's foundation was dozens or even hundreds of times greater than that of the five of them. The perfect foundation he had laid since the foundation building stage had further widened the gap between him and the cultivators of the same realm. Once he entered the Return to Void realm, he became the leader of this realm.

For other people, this is a sign of returning to perfection.

"Husband, take care of yourself."

A gentle voice sounded beside Chen Luo's ears. The voice was familiar, but Chen Luo thought for a long time and couldn't remember who this person was. A strange feeling of panic arose, as if he was afraid that his forgetfulness would make the other person sad.

But the other party did not blame him. He just sighed and disappeared with the wind.

"Brother, if this happens again, will you go back with me?"

This time Chen Luo heard it clearly; it was the voice of his junior sister Huang Ying.

But my junior sister is long gone.

Sadness welled up in my heart, and all the past came to my mind. Time went back to dusk, and the lonely grave on the cliff was covered with weeds.

The grass roots sway in the autumn wind.

It was like someone was waving in the wind, and the goose yellow skirt fluttered in the wind.

Chen Luo suddenly felt empty inside. He stood there without responding. Brother Changqing's reminder was still ringing in his ears.

The wind blew away, and Chen Luo found himself back in the Kingdom of Yue.

When he returned to the shabby little house, his uncle was standing at the door, carrying a shovel and waving at him.

"It's done, big brother."

Chen Luo felt his eyelids were heavy and a distant voice sounded in his ears.

Who is it?

Chen Luo tried hard to recall, but found that his consciousness seemed to be covered with a layer of dust that could not be wiped clean no matter how hard he tried.

"I have mastered the art of changing one's fate"

This time the sound was much closer.

Chen Luo stopped walking, and the image of his uncle outside the house became much more blurred. His thoughts were pulled back, and he regained his ability to think. The moment he realized the problem, Chen Luo immediately switched his brain. The brain of the immortal corpse took over and occupied the main consciousness.

Chen Luo only felt his body lighten, and all the discomfort disappeared.

"Look!"

The flower-backed turtle did not notice Chen Luo's abnormality and continued to talk about his cultivation results. Ever since he received the jade slip that Chen Luo threw to him, the flower-backed turtle has gone crazy. Except for basic rest every day, he spends all the rest of his time practicing.

The supernatural power that originally required an external brain to practice was actually mastered after he had transformed it hundreds of times.

At this moment, the flower-backed turtle was holding two little crocodile spirits.

These are the disciples of the demon crocodile, and there are countless of them in the nearby swamp. On weekdays, the flower-backed turtle consumes these little crocodiles when practicing.

The familiar gray-white color surged out from the palm of the flower-backed turtle.

Unlike the 'Reverse Possession Method' released by Chen Luo, the colors in the hands of the Flower-backed Turtle are separated, with gray on the left and white on the right. While operating the magical power, the life turtle pattern on his back also lit up.

The three forces intertwined to form a strange balance.

Buzz!!

The gray and white colors left the palm of the flower-backed turtle, flowed down his arm into the turtle shell, and then circulated around the turtle pattern on his back, and then returned to his arm. However, the positions were swapped, and the gray on the left hand turned into pure white, and the pure white on the right hand turned into gray.

Under the manipulation of the flower-backed turtle, the two forces were perfectly integrated into the body of the little crocodile.

The two struggling little crocodiles twitched for a while, and then they became motionless. (End of this chapter)
