I Borrowed a Brain from the Almighty

"Tao stone?"

In the past six months, with the merits earned by Ling and Zhang, Chen Luo had seen many secrets of the upper world in the Library Pavilion, and his horizons had broadened a lot. But this was the first time he had heard of something like Dao Stone, because there was no record of it in the ancient Shen Sect's classics.

"A secret treasure that can sense the power of returning to the void in advance."

The painted-skin old devil did not elaborate. His purpose was to hope that Chen Luo would help him hold down his senior brother Xingyun, and he had no intention of giving him the sect's inheritance. Zhu Chungang stood aside and repaired the injury silently. He was also curious about what the Dao Stone was, but seeing the appearance of the painted-skin old devil, he didn't ask any more.

Chen Luo was about to ask some more questions, but he didn't want to hear feedback from his spiritual sense that Ling and Zhang had completed their mission and were returning quickly.

Chen Luo, who did not want to give up his identity as the Ancient God Sect for the time being, could only end the exchange early.

He simply left his contact information and returned to the city.

"This man is very strange. I sensed a familiar aura from him. He may be an old friend we know."

The two of them stopped in place until Chen Luo's breath disappeared completely, and Zhu Chun just spoke.

"As long as there is no conflict with us."

The old devil with painted skin has no idea of ​​going into detail. He just wants to get back the things he left before his reincarnation. Only by getting those things back can he cope with Xing Yun's pursuit. This reincarnation will not be in vain.

Return to the inn.

The flower-backed turtle, who had eaten and drank enough, was listening to a song in the audience. This guy was very good at enjoying it. He booked a special performance, where he lay down by himself and hummed the song. The cattail leaf fan was gently swayed, and the delicate hands of the two little fairies were on the left and right. Waiting, gently pressing his back.

Chen Luo ignored him, flew in from the window, and went directly back to the guest room.

"Senior Brother Ding, the mission is completed."

As soon as he entered the room, Chen Luo saw Ling and Zhang coming in from the outside, holding a blank merit card in their hands, which contained all the merits they earned during this mission. Since everyone is already currying favor with others, it is natural to curry favor with them all at once. It can be said that these two guys spent a lot of money, doing the dirty work themselves, and all the benefits were given to Chen Luo. They even called Chen Luo Senior Brother since they were demoted.

"Thank you for your hard work, both of you."

Chen Luo sat cross-legged on the bed and opened his eyes with a smile.

After receiving his approval, both of them had happy looks on their faces. Their investment during this period of time had finally paid off.

night.

Chen Luo sat cross-legged in the room, quickly mastering the ancient divine sect's body-refining techniques in his body.

‘The demon blood has a blessing effect on the third page of body refining. ’

‘The ninth page can be superimposed with ‘Body Form – Immortality’. ’

"."

The thought came to mind, and Chen Luo quickly practiced the first chapter of the 'Ancient God's Body Refining Method' to perfection. The method that others would take decades or hundreds of years to comprehend, he could see through at a glance. With the superposition of countless external brains, the body refining realm of the Ancient God Sect quickly jumped from foundation building to golden elixir, and then from golden elixir to Yuanying. .

Although he has not seen the follow-up methods of the Ancient God's Body Refining Method, for Chen Luo, the golden elixir and Yuanying condensed by the Ancient God's Body Refining Method are definitely not as good as his flawless golden elixir and perfect Yuanying. It is very difficult to practice high-level magical powers with low-level skills, but it will become very easy to practice low-level magical powers with high-level skills.

This is why upward compatibility is difficult, but downward compatibility is easy.

Chen Luo has reached his limit every step of his practice so far. This strong foundation allows him to quickly master all the techniques. Any magical power that is lower than the transformation technique of Brother Changqing can be quickly introduced and cultivated to the peak with him.

Half a month later.

Barren Mountain Inn.

Chen Luo sat by the window and ordered two kilograms of buffalo meat, a plate of peanuts, and a bottle of bulk white wine. This place is not the sphere of influence of the Immortal Cultivation World. The people who come and go here are all mortals. The separation between the upper realm of immortality and the realm of mortals is even more obvious.

Under the same sky, they are like lives in two worlds.

Few people come to the mortal world, because these places are low-lying points of spiritual energy. It is difficult for immortal cultivators to practice here, and it is easy to get involved with mortals and cause unnecessary trouble. Even for old age, not many people are willing to go to the mortal world.

In the eyes of immortal cultivators in the upper realm, ordinary people are full of filth, riddled with evil insects, and are even more plagued by the evil of the seven emotions and the poison of the six desires.

This concept is completely different from the lower realm.

This concept makes the separation between the secular country and the world of immortality more obvious.

This time it was Chen Luo who took the initiative to contact Huapi Lao Mo. Lao Mo and Zhu Chungang's plan ran into trouble and needed help. It just so happened that Chen Luo also needed to learn about the inheritance of the Dao Sect level through these reincarnated old guys.

The two parties hit it off immediately and later met here.

"Do you know what 'Tao' is?"

The painted-skin old devil looked at Chen Luo and asked straight to the point.

"have no idea."

Chen Luo really didn't know what Tao was. If he had known, he wouldn't have abandoned the foundation of Qunxing Sect and fled to the Ancient God Sect.

"The four realms of Qi refining, foundation building, golden elixir, and Yuanying are the first step in cultivating immortality, which is refining Qi. The most fundamental need during cultivation is external spiritual energy, that is, spiritual vein resources. The more abundant the resources, the faster the cultivation. The faster." The painted-picture old devil picked up a chopstick of buffalo meat and told Chen Luo the news he knew.

"Starting from the realm of transforming into gods, cultivating immortals enters the second realm, which is called 'refining gods'. Every step of practice in refining gods requires a core. The cultivation of the realm of transforming gods is based on the fundamental diagram, with the fundamental diagram as the core. 'Observing the gods' "Cultivation."

Painted Skin Lao Mo said it in great detail.

It was the first time that Chen Luo heard a systematic description. This description was much clearer than what he had guessed by looking through ancient books.

Among the external brains, the brains at the level of gods and above, such as Brother Changqing and Qiuyuan, quickly recalled the corresponding content after being exposed to this information. The data has been updated again, reaching a higher level.

"But after returning to the void, the root diagram can no longer maintain practice, and it is even more difficult to break through."

The painted-skin old devil looked at Chen Luo with a deep gaze, as if he wanted to see through his true appearance. Not only Zhu Chungang felt familiar, he also felt familiar from Chen Luo. But this was obviously his first contact, and he was curious as to why he sensed a familiar aura from a stranger.

"Do you know what the next state of returning to the void is?"

"Combined?"

Chen Luo recalled that he had seen similar descriptions in the exercises of the Star Gate.

Transform into spirit, return to emptiness, and merge into one.

These three realms are divided into nine steps, which are called the 'nine steps of refining the gods'.

"To be precise, it's Hedao."

The painted-pipe old devil was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Chen Luo had actually come into contact with this level of inheritance. However, contact is contact, and whether one can practice cultivation is another matter. The really key inheritance is passed down from master to disciple, and many details require someone to teach you before you can understand them. Among the exercises recorded in writing, it is assumed that the practitioner knows these contents.

Therefore, relying on one technique to become an immortal is pure nonsense.

If it were really that easy to become an immortal, the immortals in this world would no longer be legends.

"The last six steps of the nine steps of refining the gods are inseparable from 'Tao'. Only sects that have mastered 'Tao' can have the opportunity to become immortals and are qualified to seek immortality! This is also the case for Dao sects and other sects The most fundamental gap between them.”

The old demon with painted skin reached into his arms and took out a shriveled eyeball.

The aura above made Chen Luo narrow his eyes slightly.

This thing is exactly the same as the eyeball in Nebula's body before. The difference is that this eyeball is dry and has lost its charm.

"The Tao Stone is a secret treasure similar to the 'Tao'. It allows the monks who transform into gods to borrow the power of returning to the void in advance, and allows the monks who return to the void to realize the power of combining the Tao."

The old devil with painted skin said and put his dry eyes on the table.

Last time, after he and Zhu Chungang separated from Chen Luo, they went to another hidden place and retrieved some things there. This shriveled eyeball is one of them. They are all resources left behind before his reincarnation, but they have been exhausted now. Only by getting back the things from the 'Yin Yang Pond' can these things be restored.

Seeing Chen Luo pick up the withered eyeball, the painted-skinned old devil immediately spoke. He and Zhu Chungang went to Yin Yang Pond again before, but were discovered by Xing Yun before they even got close, and it took a lot of effort for the two of them to escape.

Afterwards, Nebula did not pursue too much and just returned to Yin Yang Pond.

Seeing him like that, determined to wait and see, this made the two of them feel extremely troublesome. The plan was stuck at this point, and all subsequent plans were ruined. The three thousand years of life that the two of them had narrowly escaped death and exchanged for reincarnation were not such a waste. In desperation, they could only find Chen Luo again, hoping to borrow his power to help break the situation.

"As long as you are willing to help me hold Nebula back, I will give you this Dao Stone."

The Painted Skin Old Demon said in a seductive tone.

"This is something related to the Tao! When your cultivation level reaches your level, you must be looking for a way to return to the void, right? But I can tell you that without the Tao, you will never be able to break through the return to the void. Even if you are lucky enough to break through, you will still be able to break through. They will be stuck in the early stage of returning to the void, just like the two old guys from the Ancient God Sect.”

The Ancient Shen Sect has two great ancestors who return to the void.

Ku Chai is one of them, leaving Chen Luo whom he has never seen.

However, it can be seen from the description of the Painted Skin Old Demon that these two people should be in the early stage of returning to the void. There is a big gap between them and the three ancestors of the Stars Sect: Sun, Moon, and Stars. It is no wonder that the Ancient God Sect has always been in a weak position when facing the Stars Sect. Even if the Star Gate is in danger now, they don't dare to take the initiative to attack, they only dare to fight the autumn wind on the side.

"Can't we make a 'Tao'?"

It has never been Chen Luo's habit to use defective products to break through. He felt that he could be more radical.

"The existing Dao in the world of cultivating immortals has long been divided up by the Dao Sect. Even the Dao Stone is a secret treasure that is hard to find." The old demon's eyelids twitched, and he found that the appetite of the guy in front of him was bigger than him.

"Can the Dao Stone make me an immortal?"

"No, but it has a certain probability of helping you break through the divine transformation!" (End of Chapter)
