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 874 Picking Up Things Along the Way

Chen Luo did not follow Qi Chan's advice. After saying goodbye to him, he quickly flew towards the seawall according to the clues given by Bi Lao. He even left the donkey he rode all the way at Qi's house. When the Qi family found him, he had already disappeared.

Seawall is a place name.

This place is actually a big mountain, and at the end of the mountain is a cliff. The area below is surrounded by miasma all year round, like a sea of ​​fog. The way to enter the sea is to activate the "key" on the edge of the cliff and teleport into the void.

It took Chen Luo a whole day to fly to the seawall, and it was almost dusk when he arrived.

The setting sun sets in the west and a lone goose flies south.

"start."

The diamond-shaped stone lit up in the palm of his hand, and after a circle of orange-red light, a circle of ripples suddenly appeared on the cliff in front. Chen Luo stretched out his palm and pressed it, and his arm disappeared instantly. The damp and cold feeling came back through the skin on his arm.

“It is somewhat different from the legendary world.”

Sensing the difference in details, Chen Luoxu took a step forward and walked directly in.

sea ​​area.

The trench north of Ryugu.

A Gu Master with a broken arm leaned against the seaweed. The Gu worms at the broken arm were desperately repairing the injury, but the injury was too severe and the speed of repair could not keep up with the speed of blood flowing out. Coupled with the influence of water pressure, the Gu Master's aura was visibly declining.

"Shrimp Master!! Why are there so many Shrimp Masters?"

The armless Gu Master spoke with a trembling voice, as if he was talking to himself.

The two companions next to him didn't say anything, and they were not in good condition either.

The three of them went into the sea together with Chu Hong and Zhong Shan. They originally wanted to kill one or two small fish monsters before the tide came, and use their fish skins to survive this disaster. They had always done this in the past, but this time, they didn't know what happened. They didn't see any small fish monsters, but more than a dozen shrimp masters appeared.

"Even Senior Insect Demon couldn't escape. He's a three-worm Gu master! This damn Tongxin Gu, if it weren't for this thing, how could I have fallen to this point."

The two Gu Masters felt extremely heavy-hearted as they watched their companion's breath gradually weaken.

It’s not that their previous relationship was so good, but that they saw their future selves in the one-armed Gu Master.

Is there any way to survive?

This time the tide.

This may be the end of these people.

Passing through the ripples, Chen Luo appeared in a sea area. Looking around, there was dark blue sea water everywhere, and the water pressure kept squeezing his body, as heavy as a mountain.

A dense string of bubbles floated past.

“Is this the sea?”

Chen Luo was suspended in the middle, and his spiritual consciousness spread out unscrupulously.

One thousand meters, three thousand meters

It was not until he was close to ten thousand meters that Chen Luo finally sensed a large white stone in the lower left corner.

'Dragon's Back Mountain'

The moment he saw the big rock, the brain in the external brain that was responsible for memorizing information quickly responded. Chen Luo bought the map information from a fellow practitioner in the third restricted area, which contained a description of Dragon Ridge Mountain.

According to the description of the fellow who escaped, Dragon Ridge Mountain is located northwest of Dragon Palace.

There is a huge seaweed forest here, and a sea snake with reverted bloodline occupies this place. This guy calls himself the Sea Dragon King, and has several mutated turtle monsters and a large group of shrimps under his command. He is considered the strongest force in this area.

"A brain with ancestral bloodline must be valuable!"

Chen Luo turned and flew towards the direction of the Dragon Palace.

Half a quarter of an hour later.

Chen Luo saw a huge underwater city. Using his spiritual sense, he felt that the city was like a huge active volcano. It was filled with dark and twisted demonic power, making it impossible to tell who was who.

"Why are there so many monsters?!"

Chen Luo stopped and frowned subconsciously. He originally thought that this was just a wild monster with a group of small monsters who were roaming the land. Now it seems that this is not the case at all. The prosperity of this huge underwater city is beyond imagination. It almost encompasses the entire trench. There are countless monsters in it, almost like a monster country.

In this case, the plan of knocking on the door directly will not work.

Chen Luo didn't want to be besieged by a hundred thousand demon soldiers. That scene was only suitable for monkeys.

After walking around, Chen Luo did not sense any breath of human cultivators in the city.

If we just go in like this, it will definitely attract the attention of all the monsters in the city, and it will end up in a meaningless melee.

"The 'immediate killing' approach is no longer feasible. We can only dig graves first."

Chen Luo glanced at the city in the distance, turned around and flew towards the trench next to him.

According to the information he had bought, there was a trench not far from the Dragon Palace, where the nearby sea monsters discarded their corpses. The monsters were different from humans, especially the sea monsters, who had no habit of burial at all.

After flying for about a cup of tea, Chen Luo saw a trench.

This trench looked like it was carved out by someone, with a dark patch in the middle. The rock walls on both sides were full of honeycomb-like holes, with some plankton clinging to them, and bubbles bubbling up from time to time.

Chen Luo flew directly above the trench without stopping, controlling his body to slowly descend.

Suddenly, a twenty-meter-long eel emerged from a cave in the sea wall and bit Chen Luo in the air. In a place like the sea, creatures like Chen Luo who fly openly are the targets of the monsters in the dark.

BANG!!

With a flash of blood, the body of the eel sea monster broke in half. The smooth fracture looked like it had been cut by a sickle, and the corpse-controlling insect flew out from Chen Luo's sleeve.

After coming to the sea, the guy became extremely excited.

After adapting for so long, the Corpse Control Gu finally got used to its own surge in strength. This level of eel monsters was food in the hands of the Corpse Control Gu. After cutting off the eel monster, countless threads extended from the two front legs of the Corpse Control Gu, and these threads drilled into the body of the dead eel monster like puppet strings.

The falling eel's body stopped moving immediately, and the broken wounds were sewn together by these silk threads.

After the corpse twisted strangely twice in the water, it suddenly broke into two pieces. The corpse-controlling insect instantly lost its patience and no longer cared about its corpse-controlling ability. It dodged and pounced on the eel corpse, and began to eat it.

The sea water was quickly dyed red by blood, soaking a large area.

After smelling the blood, some monsters hiding in the dark could no longer resist their instincts and emerged from the caves on the rock wall. Their bloodshot eyes stared at the corpse-controlling Gu feasting in the sky.

Chen Luo did not try to control the corpse insect's hunting behavior and continued to control his body's whereabouts.

The light below was growing dim.

Finally, it became so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of you. It seemed like something in the shadows was swallowing up the light, making it impossible for them to see the scene in the trench clearly.

Half a quarter of an hour later.

Chen Luo’s feet touched the ground.

There is no light here anymore, even the spiritual sense is affected. I can vaguely feel something passing by me.

'Next to the left foot, there is a skull.'

'Ten steps ahead, there is a pile of bones.'

Just because Chen Luo can’t see it doesn’t mean that the other brains in the external brain can’t see it either.

After the aura changed, the scene in Chen Luo's vision changed immediately. The darkness dissipated, and the world turned gray.

The ghost cultivator Xue Ning's brain took the initiative.

When he turned around, Chen Luo saw a huge fish face with black bone armor, bending over and looking at him curiously. This was a native monster in the trench. This guy had never seen creatures outside. When he saw Chen Luo coming down, he couldn't help but feel curious.

"Move your foot, you're stepping on someone's head."

Chen Luo reached out and patted the bone armor on the other person's face.

Very hard, like stone.

The sudden voice startled the fish-faced monster. Its huge body was like a tentacle, and it disappeared into the crack of the stone wall with a whoosh. The other sea monsters surrounding Chen Luo also scattered. In the blink of an eye, Chen Luo was the only one left in the deep sea trench.

Chen Luo ignored them.

The strength of these sea monsters is very weak, at most they are at the level of Level 2 insect Gu Masters. Apart from their weird looks, they are useless and not even worth collecting. Chen Luo naturally won't waste time on them.

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

Picking up the skull that had just been stepped on by the fish-faced mermaid, Chen Luo pressed it with his right hand, and a familiar interface appeared.

After absorbing the gray air, Chen Luo walked forward a distance following his induction.

After a while, we saw a huge forest of skeletons, which was filled with all kinds of skeletons. At a glance, it was a vast expanse of white, all bones.

Crash!

Chen Luo waved his sleeves, and his spiritual power swept across the entire bone forest like a tsunami. Large pieces of bones floated up from the bottom of the water, and Chen Luo accurately found the skull he wanted among these bones.

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

'Contact with the brain waves of a dead person, degree of damage.'

Familiar interfaces flashed by one after another, and wisps of gray air rushed into Chen Luo's body like they were free.

Five, ten, twenty

But in just a few moments, Chen Luo had picked up more than a hundred brains, and the number of external brains had reached more than 1,400. After sensing the state of his soul, he felt almost no pressure.

"Treasure land! This place is my treasure land!!"

Chen Luo became happier as he collected more.

He had never been so happy in this world. Brains were everywhere and he didn't have to bother looking for them.

Half a day later.

Chen Luo picked up the last skull in the canyon.

The number of external brains has directly increased to 2,700! This is the result after Chen Luo selected them. If he accepts all of them, the number of external brains can reach 5,000 at once.

"Two thousand seven hundred is enough for now. The next period of time will be used to sort out these brains."

After picking up more than a thousand brains at one time, Chen Luo still didn't feel the upper limit of his soul's carrying capacity.

This means he can continue to pick up brains.

With a flash of inspiration, the aura on Chen Luo's body changed rapidly. The original human aura disappeared visibly. When the aura filled his body again, he had turned into a green-skinned scaly fish monster.

This is a fish monster that I just picked up in the trench.

This monster had the strength of the Spiritual Transformation Realm when he was alive, and was considered the best among the low-level brains. Chen Luo planned to use the identity of this fish monster to stay in the Sea Dragon City for a while, digest the extra thousand brains, and see if there was any chance to pick up the Sea Dragon King's brain.

"I'm leaving."

The corpse-controlling Gu, which was feasting on its food, heard its master's voice and immediately turned into a beam of black light and quickly chased after him. (End of this chapter)
