Chen Luo originally thought that after entering this restricted area, he would enter a sea full of monsters, but after coming here, he found that the situation was completely different from what he imagined.

This restricted area was somewhat larger than expected.

The old man who sold him the information had never been to this place, so it was a blank area outside the recorded information.

"There's something wrong with the spiritual energy in this place."

Retracting his right hand, Chen Luo sensed the spiritual power in the air around him, and an inexplicable sense of familiarity emerged in his heart. The spiritual power here was mixed with a lot of evil spirits, just like the evil cultivation ground in the past.

The adulteration ratio even reached 30% to 70%.

Three parts spiritual power and seven parts pollution.

Chen Luo could hardly imagine how the immortal cultivators living in this place practiced. All they inhaled into their bodies was filthy spiritual energy. The stronger their cultivation, the greater the pollution. If their cultivation reached the second stage of the Spirit Refining Realm, they would most likely lose their true form and transform into the source of pollution.

"Fortunately, the restricted area of ​​the Emperor's Tomb is not polluted."

Chen Luo had a flash of thought, but soon the thought stopped.

Is the restricted area of ​​the Emperor's Tomb really pollution-free?

Or is it that he is just like the creatures in the third restricted area, unable to sense the pollution of this world? If it were in the past, Chen Luo would definitely not think so, but his experience in the third restricted area gave him a different perspective.

'Where did these restricted areas come from? And who created them?'

The doubt flashed across his mind.

As a 'forbidden zone monster', Chen Luo originally thought that all forbidden zones were like the Immortal Emperor Changqing's Tomb, and were the burial places of the mighty ones in the Immortal Realm. Now it seems that the composition of the forbidden zones is also very complicated. The situation in the third forbidden zone is different from that of the Immortal Emperor Changqing's Tomb. Chen Luo did not feel any aura that affects the entire world here.

"We ask Master Gu to accept us as his disciples."

The three children who woke up were confused at first, but immediately became excited when they saw Chen Luo.

Gu Master!

The sincerity of the three brothers and sisters finally moved the Gu Master on the mountain, and they got the opportunity to change their fate.

"Gu Master?"

Chen Luo spread out his spiritual sense and sensed the top of the mountain where the three children had kowtowed before.

The mountain was desolate, with nothing but a collapsed thatched house. The three children got the news from somewhere that there was a Gu Master on the mountain, and as long as the Gu Master saw their sincerity, they could become his disciples and have the opportunity to change their fate.

After hearing this rumor, the three desperate children immediately regarded this place as their last straw. If Chen Luo had not appeared, the three of them would most likely have become dried bones on the roadside like those immortal seekers who died on the road.

"The three of us brothers and sisters are all capable of enduring hardships and can do any kind of work."

The three children had no idea what Chen Luo was thinking. They just thought that the Gu Master was still hesitating, so they started to act immediately.

“Follow me up the mountain.”

Chen Luo didn't care what the three children thought. He turned around and led them towards the mountain.

The turbidity of the spiritual energy in the third restricted area is too high. Chen Luo suspects that all the pollution is released by the big black carp. If he absorbs this spiritual energy to practice, he will definitely change into the big black carp in the later stage. This situation is not uncommon in the world of immortal cultivation. Among the myriad races in the world of immortal cultivation, many vassal races come from this way. The blood of the ancestors is influenced by the top powerhouses, causing the descendants to grow like the powerhouses, and slowly become the vassal of the other party.

The top of the mountain is desolate.

Chen Luo searched the wooden house and found that the place had been abandoned for at least ten years. Many things in the house had rotted away, and the collapsed beams were covered with white mold. The beams were rotten and hollow in the middle, and were crawling with unknown white bugs.

The three children stood outside the house, their faces full of tension.

They didn't know why the Gu Master lived in such a place, but they thought it must be the hobby of the master. When the three brothers and sisters were wandering outside, they heard a lot of stories based on Gu Masters. The Gu Masters in those stories had more eccentric tempers than the others, and they thought it was very acceptable for them to like living in shabby houses.

Crash

Chen Luo waved his hand to open a pile of debris and found a bookshelf. A black bamboo scroll flew out from it and fell into Chen Luo's hands.

The text on the bamboo slips is very strange.

Chen Luo looked through it, but none of the more than a thousand brains in the external brain recognized it. As a last resort, he could only call on the brain of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor again.

'How to break the Tongxin Gu'

With the help of Brother Changqing, Chen Luo quickly recognized the words on it. This is a notebook. Most of the records in it are experiments to break the Tongxin Gu. The owner of the wooden house was infected with the Tongxin Gu. In order to get rid of the Tongxin Gu's control, he hid here alone to find a way to break the Tongxin Gu.

The pitch-black words are filled with the process of failure.

Each of these processes represents a life. The rumor of "the Gu Master recruiting apprentices" circulating down the mountain was spread by this person. All the young people who came up the mountain to become the Gu Master's test subjects.

'This is stupid and the wrong direction.'

A thought popped up in the black robe's external brain.

As an insect cultivator, he was very familiar with the experiments of the Gu Masters in the mountains, and he had tried many of them before. The method of breaking the Tongxin Gu was no secret to Heipao, and the insect cultivators in the Emperor's Tomb World basically knew it. But the third restricted area was different. The Gu cultivators here absorbed the polluted spiritual energy from the outside world, and their way of thinking was very different from theirs.

Throwing the bamboo slips aside, Chen Luo waved his sleeves.

A wisp of spiritual power circulated in the house, and the dust and impurities in the house were immediately rolled up. A silver-white stream of light came out from his sleeves, and the frosty air rolled up.

The collapsed house recovered itself, a thick layer of frost hung on the surface of the rotten wood, and the white insects inside fell like dust. The six-winged centipede, more than one meter long, opened its mouth and swept away these low-level insects.

These white bugs were left behind by the previous Gu Master. For ordinary people, any one of them is enough to kill them, but in the eyes of strange bugs like the silver-backed centipede, these bugs are just snacks.

"They are all poisonous insects. What about the sea?"

Sensing the changes in the spiritual energy in the air, Chen Luo walked through the house to the pile of earth at the back.

boom!!

The soil flew up, and Chen Luo soon found the body of the dead Gu Master inside. He touched it with his right hand, and a wisp of gray air flowed along his arm and merged into it.

'Contacted with the brain waves of a dead person, damage level 7%, do you want to read it?'

A familiar interface appeared, making Chen Luo squint his eyes.

The brain of this place is also defective.

"It's really a restricted area."

Chen Luo's mind moved, and his aura changed immediately. The spiritual power that was originally as dazzling as a torch became as mediocre as the surroundings after the aura changed, no longer attracting attention, and the expression on his face also changed, turning into an ordinary middle-aged man.

' Gu Master Dong Ping. '

From the incomplete brain, Chen Luo found a lot of memories about refining Gu and the unwilling obsession before death. Through these clues, he learned the identity of the dead Gu master.

After changing his aura, Chen Luo returned to the front of the house. The three children were still standing at the door obediently, looking at him with eyes full of expectation.

"From now on, you will be responsible for all the daily chores on the mountain."

"yes!"

The three children were cheered up. After seeing Chen Luo's "ever-changing" methods, they were full of expectations for the future.

Half a month passed in a flash.

Chen Luo sat cross-legged in the wooden house, sorting out the information he had gathered during this period. The area he was in now was mainly for Gu Masters to practice, and everyone at the foot of the mountain dreamed of becoming a Gu Master.

Compared to the mundane world he had come into contact with in the Emperor's Tomb World before, the mundane world here seemed to have been interfered with by humans and had developed somewhat deformedly.

The secular world was in chaos, with no one to manage it. Everyone was like a flock of sheep in a pen, they did not produce anything, and everything they needed for life was made by the Gu Master. The Gu Master who controlled everything became the most powerful person.

The world is thus simply divided into two classes.

The upper level is the Gu Masters, and the lower level is the mortals.

Everyone wants to be a Gu Master.

“There is no sea area.”

Looking at the information he had recently collected, Chen Luo frowned. The current situation was going in the opposite direction from his plan. The original plan was to go to the sea to dig up the graves of top monsters. Now he couldn't even find the sea, so where could he go to dig graves?

"Master, we have a visitor."

Wen Yi stood at the door and bowed respectfully towards the house. Wen Yi was the oldest of the three children, the other girl was named Wen Li and the boy was named Wen Zhi.

guest?

Chen Luo was a little confused. He spread his spiritual sense and soon sensed a figure standing at the entrance of the mountain.

This person was wearing a white gown, with a jade pendant hanging around his waist, and his right hand was behind his back. The wind and snow around him would subconsciously avoid him when they approached him. It was obvious that he was a Gu Master who controlled spiritual power.

"Looks like an acquaintance."

Dong Ping's brain immediately responded with an emotion called "disgust". Although he had no memory, Chen Luo knew that this person was most likely related to the unlucky guy who died on the mountain.

Squeak.

The wooden door opened.

Chen Luo, whose appearance had completely changed, walked out of the wooden house.

The man in white who was looking out at the snowstorm didn't turn back when he heard the noise. He continued looking into the distance and spoke casually.

"There was no movement for so many years, I thought you were dead."

"What's up?"

Chen Luo looked at the man in white in front of him, and spoke his disgusted words without thinking. He tried to use his spiritual sense to sense the realm of the man in white, but all he sensed was polluted spiritual power.

This person's cultivation is very profound, and his body is severely polluted. He looks like a ball of ink emitting black air, making it difficult to see clearly.

"My elder sister asked me to go find you."

Hearing the name of the senior sister, Dong Ping instantly felt a sense of guilt. (End of this chapter)
