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...
"Then go in."
It seems that no one else wants to come over, the masked corpse cultivator on the left said in a hoarse voice.
"good."
Chen Luo nodded, walked to the corpse, and touched his head very naturally. This action made everyone in the field quiet down at once, and the two masked men stopped their actions at the same time and looked at Chen Luo with unfriendly faces.
In their view, Chen Luo's behavior was a provocation.
"What do you mean, fellow Daoist?"
The corpse cultivator on the left narrowed his eyes and his aura began to fluctuate.
"This is the etiquette in our hometown, it means to send blessings." Chen Luo looked at the corpse cultivator and grinned.
"I advise you not to do anything rash. My friend has a bad temper."
After carefully checking the corpse puppet and making sure there were no hidden tricks left, the corpse cultivator on the left spoke a warning. After that, he distanced himself from Chen Luo and his attitude was no longer as easygoing as before.
Chen Luo didn't take it to heart.
'Contacted with the brain waves of a dead person, damage level 7%, do you want to read it?'
The moment he touched the corpse's head, he extracted the corpse's brain.
The corpse refining in the Hedao realm.
Chen Luo sensed a lot of resentment from the corpse, all of which was directed at the corpse cultivator next to him. The corpse cultivator's name was 'Ren Ji', and she and the corpse cultivator next to her were Taoist companions. The two lived together for more than 2,600 years. Later, during an exploration of the ruins, they were ambushed by a masked corpse cultivator and were seriously injured and dying.
The masked corpse cultivator brought her out of the ruins, used a special method to seal her soul, and then locked up her resentment.
It then took a full three hundred years to turn her into a living corpse.
The soul is immortal, but the body is stiff and becomes a corpse!
This allowed Ren Ji to possess the immortality of a zombie while also possessing the spirituality of an immortal cultivator. Her soul and consciousness merged with the corpse cultivator, and she looked at the masked corpse cultivator as her enemy every day, but she had no way to attack him. In this environment, resentment accumulated infinitely, allowing Ren Ji to break the limit of the corpse cultivator and grow to her current level.
"I want to turn him into a zombie too!"
Ren Ji had only one obsession, and when Chen Luo read this obsession, he saw a sea of blood.
It records the whole process of how she was trained by the masked corpse to become a zombie.
One can imagine how much hatred Ren Ji had at that time.
"Buy one, get one free. This wish must be fulfilled for her." Chen Luo couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and his eyes turned more kindly when he looked at the corpse cultivator next to him.
The corpse cultivator didn't understand what was going on. He just felt that the person in front of him was very strange and very similar to the soul cultivator with an abnormal brain.
After a brief interlude, the masked corpse cultivator took the lead and walked towards the interior of Miaoyin Valley.
Because of the plague beast, the entire valley seemed a little dark, and a large amount of plague beast poison still remained in the air. These residual toxins floated among the mountains and forests, forming a gray mist.
There were some half-rotten corpses lying in disorder below. These people were the unlucky ones who were killed when the disaster came.
Chen Luo followed behind, also looking at the valley.
From the moment he entered this place, he felt something was wrong, and the brain in his external brain that was sensitive to danger had been giving him warnings.
"Surrounded by poisonous clouds, this is a very dangerous place."
"When suppressing spiritual consciousness, it is better to be cautious."
According to the experience of these guys before their death, this valley must not be entered. But Chen Luo came here to explore this place, so how could he evacuate in advance just because of a little sense of danger?
The closer the time period of 'Borrowing the Past' is to end, the more he must find enough high-level brains before leaving, in order to fill the gap in his Hedao realm.
But he was not completely unprepared. Long before entering the valley, he had arranged some means outside. If an accident really happened, he could also ensure that he could escape at the first time.
"Big sister, do you really want to let them in?"
Looking at the three figures walking in front, the female disciple of Miaoyin Sect following behind couldn't help but ask.
“This is the safest way.”
Yin Xi turned around to look at the junior sister who was speaking, and a hint of dark red flashed in her eyes.
"But it's the sect rules."
"It's just a temporary measure. To deal with these independent cultivators, we must use benefits to drive them. The sect rules can only be used against those who follow the rules. They are useless against independent cultivators. Have you forgotten how Zhou Gaofeng died?"
Yin Xi interrupted her junior sister's questioning and followed first.
Seeing this, others could only follow closely.
Miaoyin Sect suffered heavy losses in the Plague Beast Disaster, and the ancestor has not returned yet. Now, all the affairs of the sect are handled by the eldest sister Yinxi. They have long been accustomed to following Yinxi. Even if they are dissatisfied, they will not choose to leave the sect.
This is the biggest difference between sect cultivators and independent cultivators.
"There's someone ahead."
The masked corpse cultivator walking in front suddenly stopped.
A strong spiritual power wave came from the front, turning into a strong wind that blew in all directions. Even the poisonous substances in the area were blown away by this strong wind.
boom!
The rocks on the ground suddenly collapsed and turned into pulled rocks, forming a huge upright object in the air, casting a shadow.
Looking up, they saw an extremely large rock giant standing in the middle of the forest. This giant blocked out the light in this area with his own strength. Everyone standing at the feet of the rock giant was as small as an ant.
"This size is too exaggerated."
Beside Yinxi, a female cultivator from the Miaoyin Sect said in a trembling voice. Before anyone else could respond, they saw the giant raise his palm and slam it hard on the ground, with a loud bang.
Two forces exploded in front.
Another strong wind blew, and only then could everyone see clearly the giant's opponent.
It was a gray giant beast that was nearly twenty meters long. Its body was covered with dense black scales that looked like barbs. Its mouth was protruding and full of sharp teeth, and it was constantly spitting out black air.
The rock giant's palm slapped him, and the impact of the scales formed a circular shock wave, and the hilltop closest to the few people was flattened. Under the force of this slap, the giant beast knelt on all fours, causing a large-scale collapse.
"You evil beast, you still have to die!"
An old voice came from the rock giant's shoulder.
“It’s the ancestor!”
The Miaoyin Sect disciples who heard the voice had a flash of excitement in their eyes. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw an old man with white hair and a youthful face standing on the rock giant. He raised his right hand, and the rich spiritual power gathered in the palm of his hand, forming a brown ball of light.
roar!
As if in response to the old man's scolding, the giant beast that was pressed down roared, stood up again, and the spilled blood stained the ground, forming a large cloud of poisonous smoke.
The poisonous fog that had been blown away by the strong wind appeared again in the field.
"Three seniors, this plague beast is the evil beast that has occupied our Miaoyin Sect. The reincarnation of Immortal Master Fang is below."
The expression on Yin Xi's face was also a little excited. Except for the flash of dark red in his eyes, his other expressions were the same as those of the other disciples of Miaoyin Sect.
“It’s a bit tricky.”
The masked corpse cultivator stood in the distance, observing the plague beast silently. Before, he was still thinking about how to test the plague beast, but now that someone was in front of him, he naturally had to observe more carefully.
Boom!
The aftermath of the fight between the Plague Beast and the Miaoyin Sect Patriarch was getting bigger and bigger. It looked like a life-and-death fight, and the Miaoyin Sect disciples watching from a distance were extremely worried. Yin Xi even urged Chen Luo and the masked corpse cultivator to take action several times.
'Something is wrong.'
The strange feeling became more and more obvious. Chen Luo stopped and looked around, finally fixing his gaze on Yin Xi beside him. This female cultivator who had approached him rashly from the beginning did not show any fear after seeing the plague beast, and there was a flash of dark red in her eyes.
Although she concealed it well, she still couldn't escape Chen Luo's perception. With so many brains, there are always one or two points of focus that are different from others.
'Parasitic.'
In the external brain, an idea suddenly popped up in the second brother's corpse-reincarnation immortal's mind.
A strange magical power appeared in his mind.
Meridian parasitism is a kind of parasitic magic used by evil practitioners. It can silently parasitize the soul in a person. As long as the person being parasitized agrees, the two will merge into a new individual.
When this spell was first developed, it was intended to help some monks who had exhausted their potential break through bottlenecks. However, it was later modified by evil people into a magic spell to control people's minds.
'This woman is parasitized.'
Chen Luo found the source instantly.
"who!?"
As if in response to what Chen Luo was thinking, the masked man who came in with him also noticed something was wrong. He raised his hand and slapped a large rock to the rear left.
How powerful is the attack of a Hedao monk?
Mountains can be cut off easily!
But when it hit the big rock behind, it didn't cause any damage. Water-like ripples appeared on the surface of the mountain, and the middle area collapsed. The masked man's palm power seemed to be pinched in the center by an invisible big hand, and it never exploded.
whoosh!
Chen Luo turned around and left without saying a word.
The masked man was a little slow, but he reacted quickly.
At this time, the mountain that was hit by the palm force began to fade, and the original rocky ground gradually faded and turned into dark red flesh and blood. The sky, the ground, all turned into flesh and blood. In the middle of these flesh and blood, a scarlet eyeball suddenly opened, and a crazy and violent aura raged.
"This is the plague beast!"
An ugly expression appeared on the masked corpse cultivator's face.
The real plague beast was not the giant beast fighting inside, but the mountain under everyone's feet. From the moment they entered the mountain pass, they entered the belly of the plague beast.
The man and the beast who were fighting in the distance stopped their actions at the same time, turned their heads and looked straight at everyone.
The old man who had an immortal look before seemed like a different person now. His eyes were bloodshot and full of madness.
"Were you discovered?"
The old man's voice was a little distorted, as if he was suppressing his emotions. The giant beast under his feet also lost its surface transformation and turned into an earth dragon.
