I borrowed my brain from the Emperor

Chapter 123 Aftermath

three days later.

Chen Luo carefully dug out a black medicinal plant from the soil.

The battle for foundation-building spiritual materials ended three days ago. In order to ensure that he would not be hit by the foundation-building monks, Chen Luo deliberately chose an unnoticed place in the valley and dug up spiritual materials here.

No one has been to this valley for a long time, and there are many spiritual materials in it that can be used for alchemy.

Chen Luo's carefully studied pharmacological knowledge finally came in handy here.

In three days, he dug out a lot of valuable spiritual materials, replenishing the originally depleted spiritual material library. The refining of the demonic beast's blood essence was also completed in these three days. A whole bottle of python blood essence was refined to the end, and only one drop of blood was produced.

With this drop of blood, his preparations for practicing Iron Body Kung Fu are now complete, and he can start practicing it when he returns home.

"The color turned golden. Is that white giant python really a rare species?"

The essence and blood refined by the spiritual fire floated in the bottle. Even the porcelain bottle containing the elixir could not block the color of the blood spilling out. A little bit of heat escaped from the bottle, causing many more bugs to gather around it. .

Looking at the blood in the bottle, Chen Luo could clearly feel a desire coming from his body, just like a person who has been thirsty for a long time meets a bottle of water and desperately wants to drink it.

The mummy's brain is rated as 'high-quality essence and blood', which is somewhat different.

After putting the elixir into his storage bag, Chen Luo stood up and walked in the direction where he separated from Zhou Tianyang and others three days ago.

The sun shines brightly in the morning.

As Chen Luo walked in the woods, he could see traces of fighting skills everywhere. The battle three days ago was very fierce, and there were three battlefields that he could sense.

After walking a certain distance, Chen Luo saw two corpses when he was approaching Yinmulin. These two people are wearing the clothes of the Rogue Alliance. One of them is wearing the same clothes as Zhou Tianyang. He should be a deacon-level master of the Rogue Alliance.

These two people were the perfect Qi Refining cultivators who blocked Zhou Tianyang and Mr. Hu in the first place.

I don’t know what happened to the two of them afterwards, neither of them could escape.

"It's so miserable."

Chen Luo sighed with emotion, walked over and pressed on their heads, and a ray of energy flowed into his body along the palm of his hand. Anyway, people are dead, and if they are left, they will be buried in the ground and rot, so it is better to use some residual heat with him.

After breaking through the eleventh level of Qi Refining last time, the upper limit of the load capacity has increased a lot, which is just enough for the two of them. To be honest, he already looked down on the two Qi Refining Realm brains, but no matter how few mosquitoes there were, they were still meat and couldn't be wasted.

After passing the two people, Chen Luo walked a little further and re-entered the Yin Wood Forest.

Now the dark wood forest is no longer as cold as before, and the trapping effect has also disappeared. The sunlight is shining down along the leaves, and it is mottled, which is really beautiful.

The giant ape carcass is still here. It was just that he had been beaten to pieces by the aftermath of the fight, his brain was a mess, and his blood was drained. Everything valuable has been poached.

The place where the four of them originally stood has now turned into a huge pit. The surrounding trees are scorched black, and the broken trunks are still smoking.

Chen Luo walked to the edge of the giant pit and took a look.

Isn't this brother Zhou Tianyang?

Inside the huge pit, Zhou Tianyang stared at the sky with eyes fixed. There was a huge hole in his chest, and his heart had gone somewhere. His death was so miserable. There were two corpses not far away. Chen Luo had never seen these two people. Most likely, they entered the scene from behind. Judging from their clothes, they were also members of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance.

This alliance formed by casual cultivators has not yet replaced the three major factions, but the internal struggle for power has already begun.

This is also the mentality of most casual practitioners.

"Brother, why did you just leave!"

Chen Luo looked regretful.

During the time he came to Mushan City, the cooperation between him and Zhou Tianyang was still very good. Through his brother's channels, he gained a lot of benefits. Of course, the brother himself is not at a loss, as can be seen from his improved strength. He just worked hard, but in the end nothing was left. He died in this valley, and there was no one to collect his body.

Chen Luo jumped into the pit and put his hand on Zhou Tianyang's forehead.

‘After contact with the brain waves of a dead person, the damage degree is 87%. Do you want to read it? ’

Looking at the familiar words, Master Chen chose to read it with tears in his eyes.

A ray of energy poured in along the palm of his hand.

Afterwards, Chen Luo went over and collected the brains of two other unknown casual cultivators.

I did nothing along the way and picked up five brains for nothing.

"Brother, I'll send you on my last journey."

Chen Luo reached out and took out the shovel and deerskin gloves from the storage bag.

Dig holes and fill them with soil.

The main thing is a proficiency.

"Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust. Have a good trip, bro."

After filling in the soil, Chen Luo stood at the edge and muttered a few words to brother Zhou Tianyang, which was regarded as sending him off for the last time. He also buried two unknown casual cultivators nearby, staying down there to keep him company so he wouldn't be lonely.

After burying Zhou Tianyang, Chen Luo carefully searched around Yinmulin several times.

In the end, the mummy Taoist and Mr. Hu were not found, which made him a little regretful.

It appears the two friends managed to escape.

After leaving Yinmulin, Chen Luo searched carefully in the valley. Except for the places he had visited in the past three days, he did not miss any other places. He even visited the central lake area. The central lake area is calm and the waves are calm. The circular pool is bottomless. Looking down, you can see some swimming black figures.

Chen Luo did not go down to check. He just took a look at the big stone in the center of the pool. That big stone was the place where the foundation-building spiritual creature was born. Zhou Tianyang had already told him about it when he came over.

It's a pity that it is now bare and nothing is left. Zhou Tianyang got nothing out of his plan, and even put his own life on the line.

Returning along the river where he came from, he entered the cave and walked along the river again. When he reached the entrance of the passage, Chen Luo saw a black mark.

"The mark of the mummy master?"

Chen Luo reached out and touched it, and quickly read a piece of information on it.

'If it's okay, I'll see you at the mass grave. '

This is the unique technique of the mummy master. Only Chen Luo can read it. It is also the communication method left by the two people during their previous communication.

"It seems this old guy has escaped."

Erasing the mark casually, Chen Luo stepped into the water.

By the time he returned to Mushan City, it was already late at night.

Returning to the small courtyard where he lived, Chen Luo breathed a long sigh of relief. Although I didn't earn any foundation-building spiritual items when I went out this time, I did get a lot of precious spiritual materials and picked up five brains by the way, which was considered a return on my investment. After going to Mummy Lao Dao to obtain the foundation-building elixir formula and spiritual materials, we will prepare for foundation-building.

Sure enough, you have to be an alchemist. If you don't have this layer of skin, how can such benefits be delivered to your door?

"First improve your cultivation to the thirteenth level of Qi Refining, and then plan to build the foundation."

Chen Luo crossed his legs and closed his eyes, and began today's practice. There are no shortcuts to the two realms behind Qi refining. They can only rely on accumulation little by little over time.

Zhou Tianyang's disappearance did not have any impact on the Sanxiu Alliance.

Less than three days after his disappearance, a new deacon took office. Like Zhou Tianyang, he took the county magistrate appointment document given by the imperial court and became the new county magistrate of Mushan City. The channel for the secret alliance was also re-opened by this person.

Within two days, the new deacon of the Sanxiu Alliance came to the door.

The fact that there is an alchemist in Mushan City is no longer a secret in the Sanxiu Alliance. To a certain extent, Chen Luo, the alchemist, can be regarded as one of the "legacies" that the deacons of the Sanxiu Alliance should "inherit", and it accounts for a very important proportion.

"Master Chen, I am Zhu Jie, the new deacon of the Sanxiu Alliance. If you need to run any errands in the future, you can come to me directly."

The new deacon of the Sanxiu Alliance turned out to be a woman, and she was the kind of woman with great taste. The tight-fitting black clothes perfectly highlighted her assets. She was big where she should be and thin where she should be. Especially the skin, which is almost breakable by a blow, and the watery eyes seem to be seductive, which makes people feel itchy looking at them.

"It's okay at night too."

Zhujie stretched out her index finger and lightly scratched Chen Luo's side.

Chen Luo also didn't expect that such a woman would inherit Brother Zhou's "legacy". If he had known it earlier.

"Deacon Bamboo came just in time. I have run out of medicinal materials for refining the Explosive Spiritual Pill, and I can no longer supply the alliance with the pill." Chen Luo started to pay the bill with an expressionless face.

The spiritual materials that Zhou Tianyang sent to him before his death were definitely going to be blackened.

Everyone is dead, is it possible that they can still dig them out to reconcile with themselves?

"There are also materials for the elixirs such as Qi Nourishing Pill, Qi Gathering Pill, Spirit Gathering Pill, and Spirit Ascension Pill, all of which need to be replenished."

"no problem."

Zhu Jie was surprisingly easy to talk to, and she agreed to Chen Luo's request without asking any more questions.

"You can put forward any other needs, as long as they are within my scope of authority."

Such an open and cooperative attitude made Chen Luo feel a little embarrassed. Two more small requests were made, and Zhujie agreed without saying a word.

"Then we need to talk to Alchemist Chen about the loss of elixirs."

After the business matters are discussed, the rest is private matters.

"The materials for the Explosive Spiritual Pill are not cheap. I believe that Deacon Zhou has told you about this before."

"It is indeed a bit expensive, but the refining of the Explosive Spirit Pill is also very difficult. Very few first-level alchemists can refine this kind of elixir. Most of the alchemists who can refine the Explosive Spirit Pill are already second-level No need for me to say more about the price of a second-level alchemist, right?" Chen Luo reminded him.

As an elixir for Qi Refining Consummation, the level of difficulty of the Explosive Spirit Pill is similar to that of many second-level elixirs.

There are not a few alchemists who have cooperative relationships with the Loose Cultivator Alliance, and they naturally know the price.

"Of course I know this. What I want to tell Master Chen is the loss of the elixir." Zhujie said, sitting down opposite Chen Luo, holding her chin with one hand, and asked.

"I wonder if Master Chen's Explosive Spirit Pill's success rate can be improved a little bit?"

Hearing this, Chen Luo understood instantly.

"Twenty spiritual materials and six explosive spiritual pills are my limit."

"Six? Not one!"

Before Chen Luo finished speaking, Zhu Jie couldn't help but speak out. She looked at Chen Luo with wide eyes, and instantly understood the cause and effect.

Zhou Tianyang, you are a murderer with a thousand swords!

Too courageous.

The success rate of six explosive elixirs becomes one when it comes to you. So black-hearted and bold.

"Then just one."

Zhujie stood up immediately. She had previously felt that she had suffered a big loss by being sent to a remote place like Mushan City. Now it seemed that this was not a remote place, it was clearly a Feng Shui treasure!
