I Borrowed a Brain from the Almighty
Chapter 139 Escape and Return
Chen Luo, who temporarily suppressed his injuries, let out a long breath.
He stood up and looked towards the elixir garden where the mummy old ghost and the others had gone. At this moment, the voice over there has become much quieter, and I don’t know if it has become colder.
Chen Luo had no intention of going in to find out. He took out a pill, briefly restored a little spiritual power, and then turned around and walked down the mountain. With what he had just experienced, he would definitely be able to find his way down the mountain this time.
The foundation-building array mage's brain started to work.
‘Stop. ’
When Chen Luo walked to the corner and was about to move on, Zhuji's brain suddenly noticed something was wrong.
He stopped and found a golden mark under a small stone. This mark was very similar to the immortal text he had learned before, but it was a little different. At this moment, this mark is exuding weak power, affecting the environment of the path. The previous time I was guided to the thatched cottage courtyard was the effect of this mark.
With Chen Luo's current knowledge, there is no way to break this mark, but he can tell the direction through this mark.
‘Thirty steps to the left and go straight. ’
After searching for a moment, the brain of the foundation-building monk successfully found the correct direction.
Chen Luo looked over and found that this direction was full of broken rocks and poisonous miasma, with no place to stay at all.
He walked over to test it out, gritted his teeth for the last time, and walked up against the broken stones and poisonous miasma.
When I stepped on this area, the familiar feeling came over me again. It was the effect of the formation. When all the feelings disappeared, Chen Luo found himself back in Guoshan County.
The place where his feet stood was at the end of the street.
The dilapidated restaurant is still the same as what I saw when I went up the mountain, with the signboard shaking and the wooden door opening and closing.
"Wang Tianji, you thief, I won't even die!!"
Before Chen Luo could leave, an angry roar suddenly came from the mountain behind him. Then he saw Lu Zhaotian rushing out of the formation with a compass in his hand, followed by two people.
It was the mummy old ghost and Wang Tianji.
The whereabouts of the injured Sun Ji are unknown.
Wang Tianji, who escaped, had a gloomy look on his face, his body had lost a lot of weight, and his hands were still stained with blood. Thinking of the screams I heard before, I can roughly guess something.
After the two people broke out of the formation, they ran straight towards the entrance of Guoshan County without even looking at Chen Luo.
"Run away, there's a big guy behind you!!"
Only when the mummy old ghost saw Chen Luo, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it soon turned into anxiety. After giving a warning, he ran away with the two people in front of him.
Chen Luo was not stupid either. When he saw this scene, he immediately flew up and ran forward with the three of them. Lu Zhaotian has a formation compass in his hand. Following him, he can definitely leave Guoshan County successfully.
Roar! ! !
Just a moment after the three people left, there was a wave of movement in the formation behind them, and a giant monster covered in black mist emerged from it. This monster was nearly eight meters long, and was made of rocks all over its body. Holding a twisted corpse.
It was Sun Ji who disappeared.
With the appearance of this giant monster, the entire ground in Guoshan County shook, and the nearest restaurant collapsed directly. The broken wood chips were wrapped in black air and adhered to the monster's body, making his already exaggerated body size larger. It grew another two meters.
Several people who were running around subconsciously glanced back, feeling even more terrified in their hearts.
The aura of this monster is completely beyond the perfection of Qi Refining. Under his influence, half of the sky in Guoshan County turned black. In the black air, the mountain spirit woman and the young scholar loomed, and there were also a lot of ghosts and monsters mixed in, like a group of demons dancing.
"How did you get out?"
The mummy old ghost glanced at Chen Luo who was following behind him, and asked.
He remembered that Chen Luo did not have a formation compass in his hand. If the three of them hadn't been lucky enough to follow Lu Zhaotian, they would have confessed long ago. After the formation is fully activated, it is like a maze. You must rely on the formation disk to have a chance to escape.
The things Lu Zhaotian prepared with ten years of hard work have been of great use.
"Covered."
Chen Luo didn't bother to explain, and then replied.
"Where is your corpse refining? And why did Fellow Daoist Wang lose so much weight."
He noticed the changes in the three of them. Compared to the time when the Second Medicine Garden was separated, they were in a much worse state.
The mummy old ghost's treasured corpse disappeared. Wang Tianji lost a lot of weight, from a round fat man to a skinny man. The leader Lu Zhaotian was not much better. Even though he is so powerful now, it is the result of using the life-saving secret method. When the power of the secret method is exhausted, he may not even be able to fly.
"There is a monster sleeping in the third medicine garden. It is the guy behind us. We were all attacked by that monster."
The mummy old ghost looked ugly. He suffered a big loss this time. The corpse in the corpse bag was almost damaged, and even his own corpse was eaten by the big guy behind him.
As he said that, he suddenly glanced at Chen Luo.
There were five people in the group, but Chen Luo did not go in. Reminiscent of the 'evil evil' thing that Chen Luo asked him before entering the third medicine garden, the old mummy ghost felt more and more wrong.
‘Isn’t this thing behind the back an evil spirit? ’
It's just that it's not easy to ask too many questions at this time. After all, the four of them ran away first, and it was their own misfortune to be cheated.
"arrive!"
Lu Zhaotian, who was holding the formation plate, said something, and then he hit the stone wall in front of him. The whole person seemed to have turned into light, distorting for a moment and then disappearing into thin air.
"Leave me alone!!!"
Sun Ji, who was pinched by the troll, stared at the four people with his face covered in blood, and his resentful eyes seemed to have turned into reality. It's a pity that Chen Luo and the four of them are not weak, so this look was ignored by them.
The three of them followed Lu Zhaotian and hit the wall.
The palm of the giant monster behind him finally came down, and the terrifying black energy hit the wall hard. Unfortunately, no matter how angry it was, the power could not penetrate it. Everything was blocked by the formation.
A familiar sense of distortion came, and when he came back to his senses, four people had appeared outside Guoshan County.
The bright sunshine shone down from above, making several people feel dazed.
The sun and the moon were invisible in Guoshan County before, but after I came out, I realized that it was already bright outside.
"Hahaha!! I finally escaped."
Wang Tianji, who looked gloomy, collapsed on the ground and laughed loudly. On the other side, the old mummy ghost was also sitting on the ground, breathing heavily.
Lu Zhaotian was even worse. In order to escape from Guoshan County, he used a secret method. After rushing out, he hit the tree in front and passed out.
"The Concentrating Grass, yes!! My Concentrating Grass."
After Wang Tianji finished laughing, he quickly reached out to his chest and grabbed a blood-stained spiritual grass from inside.
Even he himself didn't notice that when he touched the Ningshen Grass, his pupils turned dark red unconsciously. The red light flashed away, and no one noticed it, not just him, but the old mummy ghost and Lu Zhaotian were also the same, but the strength was different, and the red light on the old mummy ghost was the weakest.
‘The evil spirit is possessed, and the life is not long. The foundation building that majors in the soul can be suppressed. If a golden elixir monk takes action, he will be safe. ’
In Chen Luo's mind, the mummy brain fed back an idea.
"Possessed by an evil spirit?"
Chen Luo's heart trembled, and he quietly distanced himself from the three of them.
"Didn't you find the Condensing Grass?"
The mummy old ghost did not notice these details. He was now immersed in the joy of escaping from death and harvesting the Concentrating God Grass.
"No."
Chen Luo shook his head.
He sensed the Ningshen Grass in his storage bag and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he had brought it out.
"I happened to grab an extra portion here, take it."
The old mummified ghost said as he took out a portion of the Ningshen Grass from his storage bag and handed it to Chen Luo. His behavior surprised Chen Luo. It seemed that the old mummy ghost really regarded him as a friend.
After taking a look at the Ningshen Grass in the hands of the mummy old ghost, Chen Luo shook his head and refused.
"Forget it, I have another way."
The mummy old ghost didn't say much when he saw this, and put the Condensing Grass away again.
The four of them rested for a while. His condition finally improved a lot, and Lu Zhaotian also woke up from his coma. His face was frighteningly white, like a tuberculosis ghost who had overindulged in sex. Wang Tianji was not much better. In order to escape for his life, he separated his flesh and blood, avoided the fatal blow, and also trapped Sun Ji.
Although he managed to survive, the injuries remained.
"Fellow Daoist Chen is an alchemist?"
Lu Zhaotian looked at Chen Luo and asked. The old mummy's attitude was so strange that he saw some clues.
"yes."
"Can I refine the Foundation Building Pill?"
"Can."
Chen Luo nodded. He understood the meaning of Lu Zhaotian's question and had no hidden thoughts. These three people have been practicing for longer than him and have accumulated a lot of experience. They are potential big customers.
This trip to Guoshan County was very exhausting, and it will take a long time to recover after returning.
In the end, the magic power of the thatched cottage foundation-building monk still remains in his body. Although the injury has been suppressed, resources are needed to recover.
"Then when I recover, I'll find my Taoist friends to make elixirs." Lu Zhaotian stood up and saluted Chen Luo solemnly.
"The price is twice what it is on the market."
"Easy to say."
"I'll come too." Wang Tianji also stood up and exchanged some polite words with Chen Luo. The two talked for a few more words, exchanged contact information with Chen Luo, and then flew away. Chen Luo and the mummy old ghost were left standing there.
The cold wind blew by, picking up the clothes of the two of them.
"Everyone has left, can we talk now? Did you discover anything before? There is also Xie Sha."
The old mummy suddenly spoke.
"Go back first. Anyway, be careful." Chen Luo glanced at the old mummy ghost but did not explain.
He didn't know what state the evil spirit possessed, so the mummy's brain gave a reminder and then stopped responding. Chen Luo didn't know the details, so he could only say this.
Hearing Chen Luo's reminder, the mummy old ghost's heart sank.
Sure enough, just as he had guessed, the things inside had left a trail on them.
But now that it's come to this point, there's nothing he can do.
We can only take one step at a time.
The two people flew up, using their spiritual power to fly towards the direction of Mushan City where they came from.
Half a month later.
Mushan City.
Chen Luo woke up from seclusion and sensed his physical condition.
The magical power left in his body by Cao Wu Ji Zhu was completely expelled, and his physical condition returned to its peak. The only troublesome thing is the curse. The finger that the foundation-building monk placed between the straw man's eyebrows is the real troublesome part.
During this period, he has been suppressing it with the divine soul technique. But even so, there is no way to completely eradicate the remaining power of the curse. After grinding for so long, it has only been worn away a little, and it is far from being fully restored.
The most troublesome thing was that after he came back, he asked Zhu Jie about the nourishing pill that Mummy Brain mentioned. It turned out that the 'Nourishment Pill' turned out to be a second-level elixir, and only alchemists in the foundation-building stage were qualified to refine it. The selling price of a single elixir outside is even more horrifyingly expensive. In many cases, even if you have spiritual stones, you may not be able to buy them.
For Chen Luo, this plan suddenly lost its meaning.
If he had the strength to build a foundation, would he still need to take risks in Guoshan County? So after learning the level of the Nourishing Pill, he immediately gave up this plan.
‘Boiled with ink dragon beard juice, supplemented by divine soul skills, it can speed up recovery. ’
Fortunately, the mummy brain came up with a second plan.
Ink Dragon Beard is much cheaper in comparison and can be purchased during the Qi Refining Period. Chen Luo asked Zhujie to buy a lot for him during this period.
"I can only endure it slowly."
Chen Luo sighed, walked to the side, threw the Molong Xu into the stove, and started to cook it over low heat. After a while, the color of the water inside slowly turned into inky black, and a strong demonic aura escaped from it. Chen Luo picked up the juice and drank it in one gulp.
Sitting cross-legged, the spiritual energy in the body began to flow, and the soul technique moved to the center of the eyebrows.
With the power of the potion, the evil curse lingering between the eyebrows began to be slowly erased. An hour later, the power of the concoction was exhausted. Chen Luo slowly recovered from his cultivation state, sensed the evil curse that was slightly fainter between his eyebrows, and continued to boil the concoction.
"The Foundation Establishment Pill is almost ready to be refined."
Three days later, Chen Luo could no longer erase the evil curse. The magical power that the Foundation Establishment cultivator penetrated into his body was not easy to solve, so he took advantage of his good condition in the past two days to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill first.
He took out the Ningshen grass and other medicinal materials and placed them on the table.
