Chapter 540: The Genius Who Can’t Help Himself



Old pine forest with pine needles all over the ground.

The cold wind howled, the branches swayed, and the cold wind made a whistling sound through the pine needles.

Chen Luo sat at the innermost part of the cave, with a tiger skin carpet on the ground. This cave was originally the territory of a tiger demon, but after he came down, the tiger demon turned into a carpet.

This is how the world of immortal cultivation works. There is no reason, only strength and weakness. Just like the few skeletons in the cave, they have also encountered similar scenes, but they are too weak, so they became the ones being trampled.

Flower-backed Turtle and Shan Tao were sent out by Chen Luo to gather information.

The main purpose was to inquire about the information of the weapon refiner and prepare for the re-refining of the soul flag later. Don't count on them in battle, the two of them are too weak, and staying here would be a burden, it's better for them to shine in a useful place.

Previously, Chen Luo used the reverse possession method to transform a group of subordinates. It was just right to hand these people over to them for management to further deepen the infiltration into the Ziqing Star Region.

"It's this secret method."

The practice of the Divine Evolution Secret Art went unexpectedly smoothly. In just half a day, Chen Luo had mastered it to the peak. The peak-level Divine Evolution Secret Art allowed Chen Luo's Nine Imperials to derive the second seal.

'Soul Seal.'

This was the second seal he had discovered after the Killing Seal.

He called this power the Ultimate Soul. Different from the ultimate attack like the Killing Seal, the power of the Soul Seal was between the real and the virtual. It could extract the soul of a person and lead them into a virtual world, just like sending a dream, making people enter the dream and experience a lifetime.

The method of soul seal is more exaggerated than sending dreams.

Under the effect of the Soul Seal, Chen Luo can use the legends of the outside world to create a story world. In the story world, he is the "God". This feeling is like a simplified version of the "Heart Demon Tribulation". Although it has not reached the level of "creating life" like the Heart Demon Tribulation, it is also an incredible power.

If one practices to the extreme, perhaps one can really reach a similar level and become a walking human-shaped calamity.

"Virtual and real?"

Chen Luo looked at the air ball in his hand and seemed to understand something.

He didn't know what the connection was between the soul and the return to the void, and Lu Tianhe's brain couldn't explain it either. He himself only had a vague understanding of this secret technique. He saw the rumors about the return to the void in the ruins. For someone like him who had exhausted his potential and was sent out to be an elder, even a slight possibility was enough for him to risk his life, after all, it was the possibility of "returning to the void"!

"Senior, there is news."

Shan Tao's voice came from outside. He had been helping Chen Luo find news about the weapon master these days.

Chen Luo's requirements were very high, and his search took a lot of time. Fortunately, there were enough people transformed by Chen Luo. Using these people's channels, Shan Tao found a weapon refining master who had died for more than 700 years. This person was once the most famous weapon refining master in the Ziqing Star Region, named Ouyang Lian.

Ouyang Lian was once a member of the Stars Sect and was also the external affairs elder of the Stars Sect during his lifetime. Because he was obsessed with refining equipment, he neglected his realm and did not break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm until his death.

Although Ouyang Lian's cultivation was only at the Nascent Soul stage, his weapon refining skills were far beyond this realm. He created a unique weapon refining method called 'Nine Refinings of Heavenly Fire'. With this method, Ouyang Lian refined a spiritual weapon with the strength of the Nascent Soul stage!

Today, most of the spiritual weapons of the Star Gate are left over from the era of Ouyang Lian.

"Where is it buried?"

Chen Luo asked, this was the issue he was most concerned about.

It is such a waste to bury such a top genius in a tomb. He must be brought out to bask in the sun.

"In the heart of the Star Sect, the Star Sect's Hao Ri Patriarch once tried to get Ouyang Lian to practice the reincarnation method, but he failed. Ouyang Lian did not have the cultivation base of the Divine Transformation Realm and did not know what a 'God' was, so the reincarnation method was like a heavenly book that he could not understand."

The first premise of the law of reincarnation is "God".

In the demon world, reincarnation is a magical power that only sixth-level demons can practice, and it is the same in the upper realm. Whether it is the Seven Ancestors of Qionghua or the Wuwei Zhenren of the Heart Demon Sect, their realms before reincarnation are all higher than the God Transformation Realm.

Chen Luo was able to understand the secret of reincarnation because he had a lot of high-level brains. But Ouyang Lian was different. He was just an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator. Although he was talented in refining equipment, he was not much better than an ordinary Nascent Soul in terms of cultivation.

"The exact location."

He had dug the tomb of the Star Gate. After arriving in the upper realm, every step he took was difficult. In the final analysis, he still hadn't found a 'local' high-level brain. If it were like the demon world, he would have found the brain of a sixth-level demon as soon as he entered, and he wouldn't have encountered these problems now.

"Tianshu Star, Yunduan Mountains. We are still searching for the exact location, but it shouldn't take long to find it."

There are evil cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation.

The more powerful the corpse, the easier it is for evil cultivators to target it, but the cemetery of the Star Gate is different. In this star field, no one dares to provoke the Star Gate. The three ancestors, Sun, Moon, and Star, are like immortal gods, suppressing this star field. Anyone who provokes the Star Gate will die.

It's not worth it to offend the Star Gate for a few corpses.

Even evil cultivators would not do this deal. They did not only focus on realm when refining corpses, but also on bloodline and bones. The corpses in the Star Gate Tomb were likely to be waste corpses, and the risk and benefits were not proportional.

“Keep looking”

Chen Luo, who was speaking, suddenly raised his head, stood up and walked out of the cave.

"Stay away."

After leaving a few words, his figure disappeared as if he had teleported. Shan Tao at the entrance of the cave was stunned for a moment, then his face changed drastically, and he quickly stood up and turned into a stream of light, escaping into the distance.

Chen Luo walked very fast.

When the third step came down, the person was already in mid-air.

Standing among the clouds, his robe fluttering.

'There is murderous intent.'

"The starlight is borrowing the path, it's the Star Lord of Tianshu!"

'Late stage of transformation, be careful.'

The active external brains quickly fed back the information they sensed, and the brains of the Star Gate gave the most detailed feedback. Especially Shang Xuanyi, who had a high status among the core disciples and had come into contact with the Star Lord of Tianshu many times, and could recognize his aura.

"It came really quickly. The mark must be resolved as soon as possible. Yunduan Mountains."

Chen Luo had already made up his mind that after dealing with the person in front of him, he would go dig the grave. He didn't have to go in person, but used the reverse possession method to transform a few people from the Star Gate and let them help him get it.

Originally he wanted to make a low-key transformation from the bottom up, but now that it has come to this, he can no longer care about so much.

If we really mess with the ancestor Fanxu, we will be in big trouble.

Sky.

Clouds are floating, and the sea of ​​clouds in the distance looks like a fairy palace, stretching as far as the eye can see.

Soon, Chen Luo saw a figure walking on the starlight. This person was wearing a Taoist robe with wide cuffs dragging behind him. In his right hand, he held a jade ruyi. From a distance, the jade ruyi looked like a magic weapon from immortals, emitting colorful light.

Chen Luo narrowed his eyes, and the aura around him began to surge.

He felt a terrifying aura from this Taoist. This was something that the three great masters of Shangxuan had not been able to bring him before. Especially the jade ruyi in his hand, which gave people the feeling of a whirlpool. When you look closely, you will be attracted by the colorful light on it and your mind will be immersed in it.

"The Ascended One Chen Luo?"

The Taoist flew to a place not far from Chen Luo and stopped. The clouds under his feet were like cotton, holding his feet.

He looked Chen Luo up and down, and the corresponding information emerged in his mind. Before going out this time, the ancestor gave him more detailed information. Not only Chen Luo, but also Huabeigui and Shan Tao were recorded, with their names, realms, and the methods they had used before.

"Tianshu Star Lord?"

Chen Luo did not answer the other party's question, but asked a question in return.

"There is someone behind this."

Tianshu Star Master laughed loudly. Although he was the headmaster of the Star Sect, he rarely went out. In the Purple and Blue Star Region, almost no one knew him. At most, they had heard of his name. The fact that the person in front of him could recognize him at a glance meant that there must be someone behind him.

The master's inference was correct.

Someone is using this chess piece to test their Star Gate.

Refining the immortal weapon affected the interests of too many people, and who knows how many people secretly wanted to see them fail.

"What benefits did those people behind you give you that made you willing to take such a big risk?"

Tianshu Star Lord asked.

He has seen through Chen Luo's cultivation.

In the early stage of transformation, the most likely one is still a ground-type god. This further proves his guess that 90% of the independent cultivators who have no guidance are human-type gods, and only those who are supported by the Taoist immortals can be ground-type gods.

The two kinds of incarnations may seem the same, but in fact there is a world of difference between them.

The human race can only borrow the power of the "dead" to transform into a god. The "god" they comprehend is the "god" of the corpses they refine, and the upper limit is also limited. This rigid method of transforming into a god inherently restricts growth. For example, if a Yuanying cultivator who is proficient in killing borrows the "cooking" of the corpses he borrows to break through to the transformation of the god, then the "god" he will have after the breakthrough will be incompatible with himself and will be very difficult to use. If he is not careful, he will become the floor of the transformation of the god.

But the Earth-type God is different. The Earth-type God condenses its own "God" and has the possibility of unlimited growth. Then there is the "True Law", which is also the power of the Earth-type God. It can be said that in the upper world, the human race and the Earth-type God are two roads, pointing to two different directions.

“.”

Chen Luo was silent for a while.

He had no idea what the old Taoist priest was talking about, what instructions he had behind the scenes, or what benefits he had. He simply took a few brains, some resources and skills, so why would there be so many twists and turns?

But it was good this way. Judging from the words of the old Taoist priest, they should have another group of enemies in the Star Gate, and these enemies were also doing the same thing as him. This way, his pressure was much less. If he managed well, he might be able to get rid of this blame.

Thinking of this, he immediately changed his tone and spoke in an involuntary tone.

"You and I are both chess pieces walking in front. How can you and I know what the Venerable is thinking?"

Upon hearing this, Tianshu Star Lord immediately remembered what happened to him in the Taoist Palace.

I couldn't help but feel sympathetic, and I looked at Chen Luo with more sympathy. I was better off, I could be a dog, but this guy was much more unlucky, he was directly pushed out and became a discarded pawn, and his thousand years of practice became a bubble.

"That's true, what a pity, fellow Daoist."

Tianshu Star Lord raised his right hand, and the clouds under his feet seemed to be pushed away by an invisible giant hand and scattered.

"If we were in another place, maybe you and I could still be friends."

Only by feeling the same can one understand. Tianshu Star Lord felt that he understood the other person. This is a genius who cannot help himself (End of this chapter)
