I Borrowed a Brain from the Almighty

Mushan River is located northwest of Mushan City.

Four figures cut through the sky and flew forward rapidly. Those in the Qi Refining Realm can fly short-distance air control, but under normal circumstances, they will not do this, because the recovery speed of spiritual power cannot match the consumption speed, and they have to come down to rest after flying a certain distance. Therefore, the vast majority of Qi Refining Realm monks glide on the wind and use the terrain to draw on their strength.

But at this moment, Chen Luo and the four of them didn't save any effort. With Yufeng flying, the four of them quickly arrived at the place Zhou Tianyang said.

The four people flew down and each took out spiritual stones to make up for their previous consumption.

Ahead, the river surges.

The water color is a bit turbid, but to the naked eye, there is nothing unusual about this river.

"This is the place."

Zhou Tianyang took back the spirit stone in his hand, and in a short time he had almost recovered. He took two steps forward, waved his hand, and a black stone flew up from the bottom of the river and fell into his palm.

This is the mark left when he chased the monster before, and it has his breath on it.

"I didn't sense the secret passage."

"Are you sure you didn't find the wrong location?"

The moment it fell, Mr. Hu and Taoist Mummy were both sensing it, but unfortunately they did not find the secret passage Zhou Tianyang mentioned.

"The location of the secret passage is a bit special. I only discovered it after following the monster. It can't be seen from the water."

Zhou Tianyang said.

Unlike the three of them, Chen Luo was looking northwest.

That is Muwang Mountain, and the mineral vein jointly 'keeped' by the four major families is at that location. The burial sites of the five foundation-building bones that Chen Luo dug before are right next to Muwang Mountain, very close to here.

‘What a coincidence? Will there be any connection? ’

Chen Luo thought of the remaining obsessions of the five foundations. There must be a reason why the seven foundation-building monks chose this place as a place to 'raise elixirs'. This hidden valley that Zhou Tianyang accidentally discovered may be related to the place of 'cultivating elixirs'.

The same goes for the mummy Taoist over there. The news is that he sold it to Chen Luo. He naturally knows the existence of the 'Elixir Raising' place, but this old guy's city is very deep. On the surface, it doesn't look any different. He is still calculating with Mr. Hu. Possible entry points.

"I'll go down first, you follow me."

By this time, all four of them had recovered, and Zhou Tianyang was the first to jump into the river. He was the one who spread the news, so naturally he had to lead the way.

It was about the 'Foundation-Building Spiritual Object', so the few people didn't stay much longer and jumped into the river one after another.

The water in the river is cold, getting colder as it sinks deeper.

After passing the turbid layer of sediment at the top, the water below suddenly became clear.

The separation between clear and turbid seems to have an invisible force.

‘There is indeed something wrong with this river. ’

This thought flashed through several people's minds at the same time.

This location is already very deep and is isolated by the aura layer. It is impossible for ordinary people to discover it and there is no way to sneak into this location.

After sinking for a while, the four people appeared at the bottom of the river. The four people with spiritual protection seemed to be walking on the ground. Zhou Tianyang, who was leading the way, walked along the river for a while.

About 100 meters away, we stopped at the edge of a large rock.

The three of them took a look and found a very hidden passage on the left side of the big stone. There were some seal characters on the stone wall at the entrance of the cave, but they were all damaged.

The entrance to the channel was dug on the side of the river, and the front was blocked by large rocks, with only half of the sediment deposited. After several people got closer, they saw the footprints of the entrance. These footprints should have been left when Zhou Tianyang brought someone here last time.

Zhou Tianyang, who was walking at the front, took out a luminous pearl from his storage bag.

Light up the passage and continue moving forward.

After a hundred steps, the channel began to move upward. After a while, the water level receded, and four people came out of the water.

Outside is an empty underground cave.

There are also many signs of fighting here, as well as a little blood and two corpses. The corpses were all wearing clothes from the Rough Cultivators Alliance. Like the gray-robed man who tested Chen Luo, they were all Rogue Cultivators in the early stages of Qi refining. These two people were most likely the unlucky ones who were casually slapped to death by the monster during the battle with the monster.

"It was the monster I injured here last time, but unfortunately he still ran away..."

Zhou Tianyang walked to a stone pillar and gestured. He didn't even look at the two corpses.

The most worthless people in the casual cultivator alliance are the low-level casual cultivators.

Any force, no matter what its original intention is, once it takes shape, the bottom class will be the target of exploitation. These Rogue Cultivators want to join the Rogue Cultivators Alliance and change their fate, so the Rogue Cultivators Alliance is using them to do things for themselves.

"The Explosive Flame Talisman failed to kill that monster?"

Mr. Hu picked up a stone from the ground, crushed the dust on it with his fingers, and his eyes fluctuated slightly. His cultivation is the strongest among the four, reaching the peak of the thirteenth level of Qi refining.

Chen Luo and Mummy Master also looked over.

This place showed signs of being burned by flames, and the stone pillars connecting the roof of the cave were broken. This kind of power is already very powerful in the Qi Refining Realm.

"The monster beast's skin is very thick and its agility is very flexible. It must have become wise."

Zhou Tianyang groped around the edge of the stone wall. When his right hand touched a raised stone, he made a slight sound. He only heard a 'click', the mechanism was activated, and a hole was opened in the natural stone wall.

A ray of light shone down, and Zhou Tianyang jumped up first.

Chen Luo and three others followed closely behind.

After leaving the passage cave, there is a forest outside. The dense woods cover the sky and the sun. Each tree is about as thick as three people hugging each other. They are all covered with fallen leaves, which are very soft when stepped on.

"The spiritual energy here is at least three times greater than outside."

Mr. Hu sensed it. As a monk at the thirteenth level of Qi Refining, he was the most sensitive to spiritual energy. Chen Luo also noticed the difference. In addition to the richness of the spiritual energy, the air in this place was also filled with a faint fragrance, like some kind of floral fragrance.

"This way."

Zhou Tianyang, who was walking in front, identified the footprints left by the monster and quickly flew forward.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, I heard that you are a top-level alchemist of the first level?" The mummy master suddenly asked as he walked beside Chen Luo.

"It's not considered top-notch. It's okay to make two Qi-nourishing pills."

Chen Luo responded humbly.

The two of them were not walking very fast and were already lagging behind Zhou Tianyang and Mr. Hu.

"I wonder if fellow Taoist can refine the Foundation Establishment Pill?"

The mummy old ghost looked forward, and his voice suddenly changed from chatting to sound transmission. This moved Chen Luo's heart, and he also used sound transmission to chat with the other party.

"If there is a prescription for elixirs, I can give it a try."

Chen Luo has never come into contact with the Foundation Building Pill so far. This level of knowledge has been monopolized by others. Whether it is materials or pill recipes, it is difficult to obtain. This is also the reason why most casual cultivators use foundation-building spiritual objects. It's not that they don't want to use the Foundation Establishment Pill, but that the Foundation Establishment Pill is too difficult to obtain.

The three major sects release only a few Foundation Establishment Pills every year, and each pill can be sold at a sky-high price. Even if most people want to buy it, they can't afford it.

"If I provide a fellow Taoist with the foundation-building elixir recipe and elixir refining materials, what is the chance of the elixir becoming a success?"

The old mummy's voice did not fluctuate at all, as if he was asking the price of a powerful pill on the road.

Chen Luo couldn't help but glance at him.

This old guy is worthy of being a disciple of the Corpse Raising Sect. He actually found all the foundation building materials and obtained the elixir without saying a word. In exchange for these things within the Corpse Raising Sect, the contribution points required must be quite a lot. This old ghost must have made great achievements!

"Do you have any goods in hand, fellow Taoist?"

Chen Luo asked calmly.

"I just assumed that I do have the recipe, but I still lack the two main ingredients."

The mummy master replied.

If the second-level alchemist hadn't asked for too high a price, he would never have come to ask Chen Luo. Even now, he only made the decision after listening to Zhou Tianyang's description of the efficacy of the first-grade 'Explosive Spiritual Pill'. The foundation building materials were too expensive, and he couldn't guarantee whether he could get them next time.

"If fellow Taoists have elixir recipes and spiritual objects in their hands, my chance of becoming an elixir should be more than 70%." Chen Luo weighed it up and came up with a relatively safe result. Directly saying that the tenth level would definitely scare people away, even a second-grade alchemist would not dare to make such a guarantee.

"so tall?"

The mummy old ghost was a little moved.

The seven-level probability is worth a try!

"It seems that after this incident, I will look for an opportunity to visit Fellow Daoist Chen."

"Welcome."

The chat between the two ended here.

Zhou Tianyang and Mr. Hu seemed to be transmitting messages earlier, but no one asked about the specific content of the conversation. We are all cultivators of the same level and have a cooperative relationship with each other. There is no need to get to the bottom of everything.

"arrive."

Zhou Tianyang, who was walking at the front, stopped.

Several people looked ahead at the same time. This was a concave mountain pass. The slopes on both sides were covered with shrubs. Some strange flowers they had never seen before grew on them. There was a trail in the middle. This trail seemed to be covered by some kind of tree. It looked like something trampled by a ferocious beast, trampling down all the plants that originally grew in these locations.

"This is where the monster escaped last time."

Zhou Tianyang did not move forward. He suffered a big loss here last time. This place is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If you break in directly, you will easily be severely damaged by the monster using the terrain. There are also those weird little flowers around. Once you get close, you will be affected by them. The spiritual energy in your body will slow down, and your strength can only be used half at most.

Mr. Hu took two steps forward, took out a yellow talisman from his storage bag, and threw it forward.

After the talisman touched the ground, it quickly burned.

Demon-seeking talisman!

Chen Luo recognized the origin of this talisman at a glance. He had copied this kind of talisman before when he was drawing talismans on the mountain. It’s just that it’s not very easy to sell. After I painted it twice, I didn’t paint it again.

"Still inside."

Mr. Chen stretched out his hand and took it with his palm. The burning flame of the talisman jumped into his palm, and the corresponding information was also passed back. This kind of talisman itself is drawn against monsters, and the only thing that can be sensed is the breath of monsters.

"Then I'll bother you, old man."

Zhou Tianyang said solemnly.

"Easy to say."

Mr. Hu took out a small gourd, patted the mouth of the gourd twice, then made a hand gesture with two fingers and pointed forward.

"go!"

A large, dense black cloud flew out from the gourd, circled around Mr. Hu, and then turned into a cloud of insects and flew towards the valley. After the cloud of insects passed by, those strange little flowers quickly withered and never looked the same again. Gorgeous.

"Insect Control Technique?"

Chen Luo looked at the flying insects and was a little surprised.

The art of controlling insects is a secret skill in the Beast Control Peak, and it is impossible for ordinary disciples to learn it. The fact that Mr. Hu can learn this skill proves that he spent at least ten years in the mountains when he was young, and also served as an inner disciple.

"It's just a small trick, let's go, go straight in."

Mr. Hu laughed, then his figure flashed and flew in followed by the swarm of insects. Zhou Tianyang and Mummy Master also followed closely behind, and they were all at the door. Naturally, they couldn't let others get the upper hand.

‘Be careful, there is someone in the valley. ’

Chen Luo was also ready to follow, but as soon as he started to move, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind.

The two foundation-building monk brains obtained on the Enlightenment Peak fed back a message at the same time. This news made Chen Luo pause for a moment, but it quickly disappeared, and he followed Zhou Tianyang and the others in without any change on his face.
