Chapter 65: The Brain of a Mummy
What you see is a dark starry sky with no end in sight.
There are suspended stone platforms floating in the void, and on each platform there is a small semicircular room.
The three of Changqing Zhenren came down first and were on a suspended platform in front. There was a space between them and the platform where Chen Luo and the others were standing. The middle section was completely separated. There was no bridge or iron lock in the dark space, so there was no way to get through.
The most important thing is that the tunnel through which the few people entered has disappeared, and their retreat is completely cut off.
This discovery made several young people panic.
"Don't move, this place is very dangerous. If you fall in, you will die."
When Master Changqing saw them coming down, he immediately began to give them instructions.
"Uncle Master, are you sure this is a tomb?" The four brothers Dude looked at the dark starry sky in front of them, their calves trembling.
The scene before him was completely beyond his understanding, and the aura emanating from the small room behind him was constantly reminding them that this place was very dangerous.
If this is really a tomb.
He couldn't imagine what kind of existence could build such a huge tomb complex.
"Keep calm and don't look around!"
Before Changqing Zhenren could reply, Xinhuo Taoist next to him could not help himself.
A curse brought Dude and the others back to their senses instantly.
"First, take out everything in the box and spread them on the ground." Fairy Cuizhu also reminded.
Hearing the sound, several people immediately got busy. After having something to do, their attention was diverted and they were not so scared anymore.
Chen Luo stood by.
He did not participate in the preliminary rehearsals, nor did he know how to use these black iron sheets, so he was left with nothing to do.
The external brain in the body becomes particularly active, as if it has returned to its hometown.
'On the floating platform at an angle of 15 degrees, there is a purple spiritual stone.'
'There is a blue light flashing on the right rear, which seems to be a skill.'
'The material of the floor tiles under your feet is unknown, but it is suspected to be metal for refining.'
Thoughts kept flashing through my mind one after another.
This also made Chen Luo's mentality completely different from the others. Not only was he not afraid, but he had the leisure to observe the surrounding environment.
This is a floating island completely floating in the dark starry sky. The ground is made of blue-gray square bricks, which are stitched together tightly. From a distance, it looks like a large mirror. If you look closely, you will find that there are some fine lines on the mirror-like floor tiles.
It looked like a formation, but it was too profound and I couldn't understand it after looking at it for a long time.
Behind the platform is a stone house. Judging from its structure, it looks like a secret room used by practitioners for retreat.
But the person currently confined inside is a dead body.
“It really is a tomb.”
Chen Luo walked over curiously.
He had tried it just now, and the platform was safe. Leaving here was hard to say, and that was why Chang Qing Zhenren reminded them not to move.
If you leave the range of the stone platform, there is a high probability that the formation will be triggered, and no one knows what will happen.
"With so many platforms, how many tombs are there?"
Chen Luo turned around and looked at the platform behind him that had no end in sight.
There is a tomb on each platform. If it is full of dead people, the number is almost unimaginable.
No wonder Master Changqing said this is a big tomb.
Over there, the three of Changqing Zhenren also set up their positions. It seemed that the black iron pieces arranged in both hands would only take effect after being connected together. After Chen Luo walked around the platform, he returned to the original entrance to the tomb.
He tried to push the door of the tomb, and unexpectedly it opened.
'No defense at all?'
Chen Luo turned around to take a look at the people who were still busy, and then remembered the records of the tomb that Changqing Zhenren showed him last night, and he felt a little relieved.
He lowered his head and walked into the tomb through the entrance.
The space inside was not big, only about five square meters, with smooth walls all around. There were traces of oil lamps on both sides, but they had all been extinguished.
In the middle, a dried-up, hunched corpse was sitting cross-legged.
I don’t know how many years have passed, but the body still remains in the same state as before death, and the clothes on the body are not torn.
Chen Luo walked over, took out the special gloves for burying corpses that he had prepared long ago and put them on.
The plan to touch the corpse was planned before he came here.
In order to prevent possible dangers, he also added a fairy text on the gloves.
'Contacted with the brain waves of a dead person, damage degree .99%. Do you want to read it?' The familiar interface popped up, but strangely, this time when reading the damage degree, there was a brief jam. Fortunately, it returned to normal in the end, so Chen Luo didn't think much about it.
'It really works!'
Feeling the information sent back by the panel, Chen Luo was cheered up and chose to extract it without saying a word.
In an instant, a ray of gray power flowed along the mummy's body and merged into his body.
The next moment, Chen Luo felt his head sink and blood instantly ooze out of his nostrils.
Overloaded!
After becoming a Qi Refiner, the number of external brains Chen Luo could control increased greatly. If he had an ordinary person's brain, the number he could control would be estimated to reach three hundred.
But now that the mummy's brain has been integrated, this number has suddenly been pulled to the upper limit, and there is a tendency for it to burst his sea of consciousness.
'Give up ten quack brains.'
Sensing the danger, Chen Luo immediately chose to "clear the space".
The effect is immediate.
After giving up the brains of ten Jianghu people, the pressure suddenly decreased a lot, but it still couldn't bear the brain of the mummy. In desperation, Chen Luo had to choose to give up again.
'Give up ten more!'
"continue."
It was not until Chen Luo gave up fifty brains that this drowsy feeling finally disappeared.
In its place was a sense of clarity I had never felt before.
The entire tomb no longer felt strange to him, it felt like returning home. This was the result of him not using the mummy's brain.
"You you! What are you doing?"
At the entrance of the tomb, Xie Shuang, who had just finished arranging the formation, looked at Chen Luo who was touching the corpse in the tomb, and his whole world view was overturned.
They were walking on thin ice here and didn't even dare to look around.
Senior Brother Chen got started right away! No wonder he was accepted as a disciple by Senior Uncle Changqing. With his love for corpses, he must be a talent for tomb raiding!
"When you arrive at someone else's land, you should always greet the owner. Don't make a fuss."
Chen Luo had already adapted to the changes brought about by the mummy's brain. He used his spiritual power to quietly evaporate the blood from his nose and calmly put the deerskin gloves back into his arms. He planned to wait until he got out and find a safe place to check out this new ability to collect brains.
Although we don't know the tomb owner's background, judging from the current reaction, he is definitely not a simple character.
This wave made a lot of money.
Thinking of this, his gaze subconsciously turned to the platform where Changqing Zhenren and the other three were standing.
There is also a tomb on it.
There should be a dead corpse inside.
"These people should have been monks in their lifetime. If I extract all their brains from so many people, wouldn't it be a leap to heaven?"
Of course, this idea is just a thought.
Putting aside the question of whether he could bear it or not, the formation of the tomb alone was enough to kill him. This point had been tested by Master Changqing in the past few decades. The safe zone only covered the platform. Once you leave, you will die!
That's how his second apprentice died.
While Chen Luo was daydreaming, the three Changqing Zhenren finally completed the arrangement of the formation.
Buzz!!
The moment the formation took shape, the ignored patterns on the ground instantly lit up.
"It was opened successfully! The key to opening the passage is indeed time."
The excited voice of Changqing Zhenren came.
