"It's Niu Cheng and Boss Qi!"
Shen Biaotou and the skinny Taoist were the fastest. They arrived at the door in a flash. Seeing this, the others quickly drew their weapons and rushed to the door.
It was still raining outside.
The escort carriage was still parked under the eaves of the Iron Spear Temple, and the horses were still chewing hay, which was just fed by Niu Cheng and Boss Qi.
"What's going on? Where's Boss Qi?"
Head of Shen Biao held a knife in his hand as he looked at Niu Cheng who was sitting in the mud at the door, and asked. It’s a pity that Niu Cheng seemed to be frightened and was struggling in the mud, only able to scream like a madman.
The dried-up Taoist squatted in the mud beside the escort vehicle, picked up a ball of black mud with his index finger, put it under his nose and sniffed it, with a solemn expression on his face.
"It's blood."
"Blood?"
Boss Shen walked over quickly and found that there was indeed a pool of blood under the escort car. Although it had been diluted by the rain, some of it was still mixed with the mud and water. It was easy to find if you looked carefully.
Boom boom boom.
There was a sound of a ball hitting each other from behind.
Everyone turned around quickly and saw that a head had been hung on the iron spear that was originally standing in the middle of the yard. The hair on the head had been tied into a rope, and the end was tied to the tip of the spear. The head below was hitting the spear barrel like a ball, and the sound they heard was made by the collision of heads.
"Boss Qi?!"
"Who did it?"
Several people rushed over quickly, and one of them dodged and took off Boss Qi's head.
The hands of Shen Biaotou, who were holding the big knife, were soaked with sweat. The rain washed over his body and a chill struck his heart. The same goes for the withered Taoist priest next to him. There is only one thing that can kill people silently on such a rainy night and scare Niu Cheng into insanity, and that is the big monster they are trying so hard to avoid.
But where is the monster?
"Master Qiu, did you sense it?" Leader Shen looked at the dry old Taoist beside him.
This is a monster!
These are things that only cultivators can deal with; they are just a group of ordinary warriors. Don’t think that there are no ordinary people in the Tiannan Region. The territory here is larger than that of the Southwest Region, and there are countless ordinary people living there. Only with a huge population base can so many immortal cultivators be born.
"I'll try again."
Taoist Priest Qiu took out the talisman that he had kept in the bottom of his box. This was a top-grade talisman that he had bought at a high price in the market town, and he usually was reluctant to use it.
"By the way, where's the guy inside?"
Taoist Priest Qiu, who was holding the talisman, paused. He suddenly remembered the strange young man. His appearance and behavior were strange.
Would a normal person sit alone in the Iron Spear Temple without lighting a lamp to rest?
Won't!
Thinking of this, a chill rose in Taoist Qiu's heart. If the person inside was really a "monster", then none of them would survive.
Leader Shen Biao also thought of it.
"Old Qian, go in and take a look."
He turned and spoke to the old escort next to him. This old escort is the one with the highest martial arts skills except for the escort leader Shen.
"Take this."
Taoist Priest Qiu activated the talisman paper he had kept at the bottom of his box and handed it to Lao Qian.
"good."
Old Qian took the talisman and put it in his arms. He held the big knife in one hand, with the blade against the door of the Iron Spear Temple, and pushed the door open carefully. There was no sound from inside, and what happened at the door did not alarm the person inside. Perhaps the other person did not pay attention to these trivial matters at all.
The man in green was still sitting cross-legged in the corner practicing. The fire lit by everyone in the room was burning. The flickering flames made the man inside look even more weird. Old Qian seemed to see a wisp of black gas coming out of the other person.
Black air?
He swallowed subconsciously, touched the talisman in his arms, and continued to move closer with the knife in hand.
When facing a monster, running away is useless. This is the experience that countless bodyguards have summed up with their lives. If you want to survive, you must find the true form of the "monster" and kowtow and beg for mercy.
It's just so cruel.
Ordinary people are completely helpless against monsters. Their proud martial arts cannot even cut the monster's skin. Only cultivators can deal with monsters. Taoist Priest Qiu had told him that if one wanted to hurt the monster, one must use spiritual energy. But ordinary people can’t even see something like spiritual energy, so how can they use it?
Click.
Old Qian's expression froze. He looked down and found that he had stepped on a broken brick. When he looked up again, the young man was looking straight at him. There were black pine flower-like lines on both cheeks, and there were two round little bumps under the skin that kept moving.
With a "clang" sound, the talisman that Taoist Qiu gave him to save his life suddenly burned. The talisman that Taoist Qiu used as a trump card flew out from Lao Qian's chest and stuck to the young man's forehead.
As the flame burned, there was a hissing sound, and then there was nothing.
"Grandpa Monster, spare my life."
Lao Qian dropped the knife in his hand and immediately knelt on the ground. But the young man opposite ignored him and looked at the door behind Lao Qian. A young man holding a shovel appeared there at some point.
"You want to kill them all?!"
The young man hiding in the corner had a face full of resentment. He had tried every possible way to conceal his breath, but he didn't expect to be found by this man.
"That brain is mine."
The young man holding the shovel smiled gently, and his expression was like he was chatting with an old friend.
"That's not giving me a chance to live! Do you really think you can defeat me?"
The young man's face was covered with black lines and had a hideous look. The skin on the surface of the skin tore apart with a "rip" sound, like cardboard being torn in half from the nose, and a pitch-black lizard jumped out from inside. The smelly body, dragging countless fine black hairs, pounced towards the young man holding a shovel.
“Oh my god!”
Old Qian had never seen such a scene before. He was so scared that he screamed, his pants got wet, and he leaned against the wall with his legs kicking.
Bang! !
The young man holding the shovel raised his right hand, clenched his five fingers into a fist, and a strange bone pattern condensed on his chest, and he smashed it towards the opponent's face. The two collided, and a circular air wave exploded. The fire lit by a group of bodyguards in the distance was blown away by the air wave, and the pile of burning wood with sparks flew out and hit other places, causing a fire.
The door panels and windows also shattered, and large pieces of debris exploded.
Taoist Priest Qiu, Head Emissary Shen and others who were hiding and observing outside were blown away by this force and rolled in the mud in a mess.
"Master! I have met a master."
Taoist Priest Qiu climbed out of the mud and shouted excitedly. He also saw the scene of the talisman paper burning. He didn't expect that his most powerful trick couldn't even burn the opponent's skin. Fortunately, there was a variable at the last moment. Although the appearance of this senior holding the shovel was a bit strange, his methods were really cruel.
Such a powerful monster was pinned to the ground and beaten by him.
"Master Qiu, that person is..."
"An expert who can deal with a powerful demon! God bless our Dragon Tiger Escort Agency."
Inside the temple, the lizard monster was hit on the forehead by a fist from the young man holding a shovel. The hard skull sank in like mud. The black power exploded, splashing black mud everywhere. Lao Qian in the corner took advantage of the gap just now to crawl out and hid far away like everyone else.
After smashing the lizard monster with a punch, a ball of fire appeared on the arm of the young man holding the shovel, and he grabbed a part of the black mud and slapped it.
boom!
The force of the flames caused a secondary explosion.
All the black hair on the lizard monster was burned to ashes in large areas. The flames and rain collided, burning out a red land and evaporating a large amount of water vapor.
The Iron Spear Temple completely collapsed under this impact. The wall on the right side shook and shattered, and green bricks and tiles fell like rain. Even the small gods in the temple were knocked down by this force.
But the two people fighting didn't notice these things. The smashed monster was divided into dozens of black mud and fled in all directions.
He was really scared of being beaten.
This guy holding the shovel is a monster. He knows all kinds of tricks. He has never seen such a difficult human monk.
In the Iron Spear Temple, the victorious young man was holding a white skull, and a piece of information emerged in his mind.
'Contacted with dead person's brain waves, damage level 91%, do you want to read it? '
absorb!
The young man holding the shovel was Chen Luo.
After he left the Qionghua Sect's stronghold, he headed north for more than two months. Along the way, he met many immortal cultivators from the Tiannan Region. He obtained many skills from them, and the "experience" of his external brain became more and more sufficient. For Chen Luo, Tiannan Region is his blessed land.
Until recently, Chen Luo passed through this mountain range and found out about the tomb of a Jindan cultivator at a cultivator exchange meeting. The next step is of course to dig up the grave and take out the brain!
Unfortunately, something unexpected happened along the way, and the brain he dug out was snatched away by the monster.
What followed was a manhunt that lasted for dozens of days.
This monster is very unique, and it took Chen Luo a lot of effort to find him. But every time they found this guy, he would split up and escape. They chased him all the way to the Iron Spear Temple and only then did they snatch the lost skull from this monster.
It was all thanks to the monster that he didn't control his nature and killed people, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to get here so quickly.
The third pill has formed the brain.
After absorbing the gray energy, there was actually a lingering obsession inside. The degree of damage was not as severe as that of other ancient tomb brains, and some of it was still retained.
"I will definitely be able to refine the Infant Condensation Pill."
A memory related to alchemy flooded into his mind. In it, an old man with white hair and beard was sitting next to an alchemy furnace, staring at the fire like crazy. The medicinal liquid in the furnace was condensing, and there were faint signs that it was about to take shape.
But at the last moment of pill formation, the balance of the medicine liquid was broken. The moment the fourth-level pill became unbalanced, it triggered a chain reaction. After a dazzling light, the picture disappeared.
This person died while refining alchemy.
"Alchemist?"
A hint of joy flashed in Chen Luo's eyes. He didn't expect to be so lucky that he actually dug out an alchemist's brain in such an ancient tomb. It goes without saying that the alchemist who aims to make the Ningying Pill must be a third-level alchemist. The second-level alchemists study elixirs related to pill formation.
With this brain, he has a greater chance of condensing a first-grade golden elixir. (End of this chapter)
