I Borrowed a Brain from the Almighty

"Is it because I haven't been out of the mountain for too long that those ants outside have forgotten the name of Chunyang Xianmen?"

Xiang Xixing stretched out his right hand, and the spiritual power spread along his palm.

A little breath the size of a grain of rice was extracted by him. This breath was suspended on the palm of his hand, and it kept jumping like the candlelight of an oil lamp.

A piece of gray turtle shell appeared in his hand.

This turtle shell is an extremely rare 'spiritual weapon-level heavenly secret weapon', which can help people predict the future and relate to cause and effect.

"Big Snow Mountain"

Xiang Xixing stretched out his hand and wrote three words on the turtle shell.

His purpose was very simple, which was to use this thing to find the whereabouts of the 'Snow Mountain Ancestor'. Before the head of Chunyang and Xilou went down the mountain, they mentioned the person 'Snow Mountain Ancestor' to him, and the first goal after going down the mountain was to find this person.

Xiang Xixing didn't know whether the death of the two people was related to the Snow Mountain Ancestor, but he didn't mind starting with this person.

If a person is dead, search along the traces of death.

If the person is alive, then he is the real murderer.

The spiritual light lit up, and the words written on the tortoise shell faded and disappeared like absorbed water. A circle of strange power appeared on the veins of the tortoise pattern. The scattered light spots gathered towards the center from eight different directions like living fireflies.

Bang! !

The eight light spots gathered, and before Xiang Xixing had time to take a closer look, he heard a loud noise.

This piece of "Heavenly Spiritual Artifact" that had accompanied him for several reincarnations was blown into pieces on the spot. The arm holding the tortoise shell was broken at the elbow, and the broken shell exploded like flowers scattered by a fairy. The center of the eyebrows and the chest were all pierced by the tortoise shell, leaving one shocking wound after another.

"Sword?"

The broken arm grew again, and the center of the eyebrows and the chest also returned to the appearance before the injury, and even the blood stained on the clothes shrank back by itself.

Xiang Xixing recalled the ancient word he "saw" before the tortoise shell exploded.

"Could it be the Ancient Sword Sect?"

Xiang Xixing's eyes flickered, thinking that the Ancient Sword Sect had discovered his plan, so they took this opportunity to plot against him. This result was easy to accept, and only the 'immortal weapon' behind the Upper Nine Sects could burst the 'Heavenly Secret Spiritual Weapon'.

Otherwise, a mere casual cultivator, even if he was in the Hedao realm, could not burst his spiritual weapon. Unless the background of this casual cultivator was deeper than his.

However, how could such a thing be possible?

The only explanation was that the Ancient Sword Sect wanted to use this incident to give him a warning.

Xiang Xixing, who had found the 'real murderer', began to adjust his plan. Things had been planned for so long, it was absolutely impossible to give up, and he could only adjust the way to proceed.

Three months passed quickly.

Chen Luo kept a low profile in the market for three months, and the expected pursuit did not appear.

This made him feel relieved.

If the ancestor of the Pure Yang Immortal Sect really came with the immortal weapon, he would have to give up this body and end the 'borrowing the ancient' and return early. But now it seems that things have not developed to that point, and the ancestors of the Pure Yang Immortal Sect do not have such great courage.

"Immortal weapons are not so easy to call, there must be some restrictions."

There are too few clues, and Chen Luo thought for a long time but did not find any useful information.

He could only leave it alone for now.

The time for the Ancient Sword Sect to return to the mountain has finally arrived. Chen Luo took the identity card of the Ancient Sword Sect disciple, successfully passed the test of the Ancient Sword Sect, and disappeared in the market.

After passing through the cross-domain teleportation array, Chen Luo knew why he could not find the whereabouts of the Ancient Sword Sect before. This sect is not in the original Xiuxian world at all, but a realm hanging outside the world.

In the world eight thousand years later, realms are very common.

But in this era, realms are like a paradise, with a feeling of being away from worldly disputes and high above.

"The spiritual energy is at least twenty times richer than the world below, just like a different world."

After walking out of the teleportation array, Chen Luo took a deep breath.

In the Corpse Immortal Dao era eight thousand years later, the upper realm has many high-level spiritual veins. Chen Luo has seen many fourth-level and even fifth-level spiritual veins. But in this era eight thousand years ago, the number of spiritual veins in the world of cultivation was very rare. Except for some special places, the general sect had at most one third-level spiritual vein.

In a barren place like the Great Snow Mountain, there is not even a first-level spiritual vein. The cultivators living there can only rely on some flowing spiritual places such as spiritual springs and spiritual eyes to practice. This also leads to the fact that the cultivation of cultivators in that area is generally not high.

The realm where the Ancient Sword Sect is located is completely different.

This difference is from top to bottom.

The concentration of the gate alone has reached the intensity comparable to that of the fourth-level spiritual vein. No wonder the disciples of the Dao Sect I met before always have a feeling of superiority. How can people who have been practicing in such a place since entering the Tao look down on the casual cultivators outside?

"Have you thought about what to change?"

A voice interrupted Chen Luo's thoughts.

A woman in a black sword robe sat at the entrance of the Ancient Sword Sect, yawning boredly. Judging from her attire, she should be the mission elder of the Ancient Sword Sect.

A strong man in the middle stage of returning to the void.

Strong men that are rarely seen in the lower cultivation world can be seen everywhere in the Ancient Sword Sect.

This feeling is like ascending to heaven, and all the strong men have gathered in this small area.

"If you haven't made up your mind, leave it aside and don't delay things."

The mission elder impatiently urged Chen Luo when she saw that he didn't say anything. She thought Chen Luo hadn't thought about what to exchange, so she didn't think much about it. This situation is very common here. The merit points in the Ancient Sword Sect are very precious, and there are too many things to exchange. Most of the disciples who return from the mission will think for a long time here, wishing to split one merit point into two.

"Exchange for cultivation experience and a place to join the sect."

Chen Luo picked up the identity token and handed it over.

The merit points on the identity token were accumulated by the dead disciples of the Ancient Sword Sect during their lifetime. It would be a waste to keep them. Chen Luo found a few useful things in the mission elder's list that he could afford and exchanged them.

The mission elder didn't ask, and after taking the identity token, he pressed it on the stone slab.

The merit points on the token disappeared instantly, and then he saw the mission elder take out a few light balls from the storage bag and threw them to Chen Luo.

With the exchanged things, Chen Luo followed the obsession picture that remained in his mind and walked towards his residence.

The obsession memory is not complete, and many details are missing.

Chen Luo also spent a lot of effort to find the exact location. Fortunately, no one suspected anyone along the way. The atmosphere inside the Ancient Sword Sect is very cold, which may be related to the character of the sword cultivators. Unless they are close friends, they may not even bother to say a word when they meet each other.

"Twenty-seven thousand years"

In the courtyard, Chen Luo put down the cultivation experience in his hand, and his heart was slightly shocked.

He chose to exchange the cultivation experience because this cultivation experience recorded many details of the cultivation when the predecessors of the Ancient Sword Sect comprehended the sword method.

The time span of this sword experience is the longest one on the mission elders. A total of twenty-seven owners changed hands in the middle. The earliest of these twenty-seven people is a twenty-seven thousand-year-old figure, named Qiu Shui Sword Master.

The era of Qiu Shui Sword Master's cultivation was far more prosperous than now. In the experience, Qiushui Sword Master mentioned a lot of spiritual materials needed for daily practice, which are almost extinct in this era, and even a large part of them are only a name.

After that, Chen Luo carefully observed the records of the next 26 people and found that the spiritual materials consumed by these people in their daily practice were constantly changing and downgrading.

From this detail, it can be seen that the spiritual energy of the world of cultivation has been declining.

Eight thousand years later, the degree of spiritual energy decline in the corpse immortal way is even more serious. It is so serious that the mainstream cultivation method has withdrawn from the stage of history. In order to save spiritual energy, later generations of immortals can only use dead predecessors as resources.

Relying on corpses to practice!

"You must dig out a brain from 27,000 years ago. This Qiushui Sword Master is very good."

Putting down the manual, Chen Luo wrote down several potential "predecessors" from it, and prepared to wait until the limelight passed and go to pay homage to them.

After setting the goal, Chen Luo picked up the "quota" mark next to him. This mark is the cheapest reward from the mission elder, and only requires one merit point. After exchanging the experience, there was still one merit point left in the task card. Chen Luo exchanged it with the mentality of not wasting it.

The ‘quota’ is not the quota for the disciples of the Ancient Sword Sect, but the quota for entering the mountain to practice.

Those who hold the ‘quota’ can enter the Ancient Sword Sect to practice and enjoy the spiritual energy far beyond the world of cultivation. If a genius with extraordinary qualifications only needs to stay here for one day, he can save several years or even decades of practice time. Once such a genius is discovered, he will be immediately accepted into the sect and become a formal disciple of the Ancient Sword Sect.

This is also a way for the Ancient Sword Sect to absorb fresh blood.

"Just for Fellow Daoist Mu."

Chen Luo weighed it, reached out and took out a talisman paper, engraved the ‘quota’ into it, and then poured spiritual power into it.

The talisman paper instantly ignited, and a paper crane with flapping wings flew out of the black flame, turning into a stream of light and flying towards the outside world

Three days later.

The talisman lit up, and there was another person returning with him.

It was Mu Jianyu who failed to break through before and went out to venture outside. Chen Luo left a mark on her body, which made it easy for him to find her anytime and anywhere.

"You sneaked in just like that?"

Mu Jianyu was still a little shocked.

Their group came here to "borrow the ancient times", and their biggest goal was the Ancient Sword Sect. The name of the Upper Nine Sect was too famous in the "Corpse Immortal Dao" era eight thousand years later, and everyone wanted to know their origins. Mu Jianyu also wanted to know. It's a pity that the Upper Nine Sect is extremely mysterious, and ordinary people can't find their location at all.

The "Upper Nine Sect" is like a circle surrounded by high walls, and people from outside can't get in at all.

Originally, Mu Jianyu had given up, but she didn't expect Chen Luo to sneak in and change a "quota" for her. (End of this chapter)
