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 night is hazy and the moon is half hidden.
On a lonely hill, a man is swinging a shovel.
Bang!
With a slight sound, the figure put the shovel aside, reached into the storage bag, took out a triangular lamp and hung it on the side. The orange-red fire illuminated the area, reflecting the face of the gravedigger.
It was Chen Luo.
After dealing with the matter of the Wanxiang Immortal Sect, he announced to the public that he would be in seclusion. Then he began to explore the seven ancient tombs he had bought in the Evernight Valley. Without the soul-chasing mirror, Chen Luo kept changing his identity along the way. In less than half a year, he visited all the seven ruins he had bought in the Evernight Valley.
Of the seven locations, most have been hollowed out.
When Chen Luo went there, there were only a few broken bricks left, and even the wall had been pried away. On the way back, he was ambushed several times. If it weren't for his great strength, he might have become a withered skeleton in the mountains like those nameless casual cultivators.
The news of the Eternal Night Valley was not sold to just one person. The seven high-level monks' places of meditation were sold for at least several hundred copies, if not a thousand. The Chaos Demon Sea, where the old demon Bi Hai died, was the most dangerous of the seven places.
There are blood-refining demon cultivators who have set up a bloodthirsty formation outside, specifically to kill cultivators who come to hunt for treasures, and use the blood of the cultivators to practice.
Chen Luo just took a look from a distance and chose to leave.
The experience of more than a thousand brains can help him avoid many risks.
This hilltop is the seventh point mentioned in the news, and it is also the only well-preserved relic. This relic is different from the previous six ruins. It is "alive". It is exactly the same as the scene that Chen Luo encountered in the demon tribe in the past. There is no specific way to enter. Even if you know that the ruins are here, you can't enter.
Chen Luo also spent a lot of effort and picked up dozens of "locals" before he figured out this way.
Click
After the sound of heavy stone slabs, a deep underground passage appeared in front of Chen Luo.
Chen Luo spread out his spiritual sense and did not find anything unusual.
Out of caution, he took out the treasure-hunting rat from the cave gourd.
The dozing treasure-hunting mouse was instantly awakened by the cold wind from the cave entrance.
After following Chen Luo for so many years, the little golden mouse has grown a lot fatter. Now it has regarded the cave gourd as its home, a place with food and water and a safe place. There are few such places in the world of immortal cultivation. Even if Chen Luo loses it now, it will probably find it again in no time.
"Go in and take a look, focusing on finding the body."
The treasure-hunting mouse lay on the ground and sniffed twice, then jumped through the door with a "whoosh". The position it chose was a gap in the door, and because it was too fat, its butt was stuck for a while, and it took a long time to push its legs to get in.
Chen Luo chose a relatively clean spot at the entrance of the cave and sat down.
The treasure-hunting rat moves very quickly.
This little fellow had a very strong talent and could avoid the restrictions and mechanisms in the tomb on his own. Even if there was a tomb guardian beast, it would ignore it when it sensed it. About a cup of tea later, the treasure-hunting rat that had entered the cave sent back a message.
'There is a discovery.'
Lingxu Cave Heaven.
In the trading area of Fangshi for independent cultivators, at the door of a low house, a dried-up corpse was lying on the street. The shops on both sides were locked and no one dared to come out to investigate the situation.
Zhong Yan looked at the withered corpse at her feet with an extremely ugly expression.
This is the third dead body found this month. Although all the dead are casual cultivators in the Qi Refining Realm, the impact is extremely bad. The dead bodies were all found in the market town. Although it is a marginal area, it is still within the sphere of influence of the sect.
Killing people here is a provocation to their Lingxu Dongtian.
The situation finally stabilized, but this kind of trouble happened. The most important thing was that the master had gone out to travel and had not returned yet. Although there were some means of saving lives left on the mountain, they were only used as a last resort and could not be used to deal with such trivial matters.
"It's still the magic of the Blood Demon Sect. All my blood and energy are gone. I have no energy or spirit left."
The butler reported the situation carefully.
When the Anode Venerable was dealt with before, he thought he could live a peaceful life for a few days. Unexpectedly, after a few days of peace, the sect encountered new troubles again.
"The Blood Demon Sect again!!"
Zhong Yan felt annoyed when she heard this name.
The Blood Demon Sect has been famous recently, and their movements can be heard everywhere. Not long ago, the Wanxiang Immortal Sect, which is not far from their Lingxu Cave Heaven, was also attacked by the Blood Demon Sect, and it is said that many people died. There are also attacks in the Wanchong Valley, the Xinggong in the Chaos Demon Sea, and so on.
"Dispose of the bodies and increase the number of patrol officers."
After making sure that there were no enemies hiding nearby, Zhong Yan turned and walked towards the mountain.
"Let those third generation disciples come out for patrol. No one can be left behind!"
Halfway through the walk, Zhong Yan suddenly thought of the third-generation disciples on the mountain, and spoke to the butler again. She felt a little scared when she thought of the third-generation disciples. These people were all taken in when Lingxuzi opened the mountain gate last time. Most of them went out to travel with Lingxuzi, and only a few stayed in the sect.
These people usually practice in the mountains. They never go out of the main gate or the secondary gate. They don't even consume spirit stones, and they don't even say hello to Zhong Yan, the only second-generation disciple. They are like living dead.
"clear."
The butler responded quickly.
Only after a group of people carried the body away did the long bluestone street return to silence again.
As night falls, the cold air rises.
The water drops slid down the eaves and fell into the gaps between the bluestone tiles. They blended into the soil, passed through the sand, and finally appeared in the cave.
Tick
The water droplets fell into the blood pool, creating ripples. A blood-stained figure emerged from the blood pool. Sensing the news brought back by the water droplets, the blood pool monster was silent for a moment, and finally sank back into the blood pool.
The cave fell silent again.
'Wait till I get out.'
These people are used to blaming everything on the Blood Demon Sect. In this case, he will grant their wish. When this opportunity comes, he will go to them one by one and take back everything he has lost.
Half a month later.
Chen Luo returned to the Wanxiang Immortal Gate.
With the help of the treasure-hunting rat, he successfully dug through the ruins and found the corpse of a fallen monk who had transcended tribulation.
Master Qianxing!
A strong person in the early stage of tribulation.
When he dug up this person, Chen Luo also found the cultivation method of Master Qianxing in the tomb. With these things, he successfully "restored" some of Master Qianxing's cultivation memories and mastered a magical power called "Qianxing".
This magical power was very similar to the 'Stars in the Sky' that he had mastered before, and there seemed to be some connection between the two secret arts. After receiving the brain, Chen Luo immediately handed over the task of integrating this secret art to Master Qianxing, the fourth strongest person besides the three brothers.
"Ancestor, there is a clue."
Not long after I sat down, Elder Tang Hai came over.
Before going down the mountain, Chen Luo assigned Tang Hai a task to hunt down and retaliate against the 'Blood Demon Sect'. Afterwards, Chen Luo put this matter behind him. He did not expect that Elder Tang was so capable that he actually helped him find clues about the Blood Demon Sect.
"Where are the people?"
Chen Luo asked expressionlessly.
Tang Hai, who was standing at the door, showed an embarrassed expression on his face, and then immediately spoke.
"The exact location has not been found yet, but someone has discovered their whereabouts."
During this period of time, Tang Hai traveled to many places and wasted a lot of favors for the tasks assigned by the ancestor. Now that he finally found a clue, he naturally came to the ancestor to ask for credit. This is also the usual style of the Wanxiang Xianmen, which is different from other sects. All the elders of the Wanxiang Xianmen sold their lives to the Wanxiang ancestor. If they want to improve their strength, they must get the ancestor's approval.
Tang Hai was so anxious to show off because he wanted to leave an impression in front of the ancestor Chen Luo.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that the 'Ancestor of All Things' in front of him had been replaced a long time ago, and many of his previous habits were no longer applicable. So before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Chen Luo.
"Then tell me when the news is confirmed."
After saying that, without waiting for Tang Hai to react, he simply waved his sleeves and swept him out.
Tang Hai, who was standing at the door, was dumbfounded for a moment, and then a feeling of panic rose in his heart.
'Is it possible that I have offended the ancestor?'
Chen Luo didn't know what Tang Hai was thinking. All his thoughts were on himself. It had been a long time since he left the tomb, and the most dangerous period had passed. Without the soul-chasing mirror, he had a firm foothold here.
Through the identity of the Ancestor of All Things, he learned some information that he had never been exposed to before.
The most eye-catching one among them is the opportunity to become an immortal!
The way to immortality in the outside world is not about accumulating practice in the traditional sense, and finally being struck by thunder to be ranked among the immortals. Instead, it requires struggle!
All races in the world fight each other every ten thousand years.
The successful ones will be ranked among the immortals, while the unsuccessful ones will be turned into ashes and become stepping stones for the true immortals.
This is a battle for immortality, and no one is willing to back down.
According to the information collected by Wanxiang Xianmen, there are only 600 years left before the next opportunity to become an immortal. The peaceful world of immortal cultivation is a period of calm before the chaos. Once the opportunity to become an immortal comes, all races in the world will gather at one point. At that time, all forces without immortal weapons will become cannon fodder.
The so-called medium-sized sect, small force.
In front of the strong men of all races, they are nothing but grass.
In a time of chaos, it is difficult to survive without strength. For example, the Blood Demon Sect, a cultivator who practices the Blood Demon Way, will draw a large amount of original blood with every move. As long as they live in this area, everyone is their resource. There are also the Soul and Heart Demon Ways.
These people never care about strength or weakness.
In their eyes, all living things in the world are resources!
The Master Qianxing that Chen Luo picked up had a fragment of the "Opportunity to Become an Immortal" in his brain. This Master Qianxing died in the last fight for the "Opportunity to Become an Immortal". (End of this chapter)
