I Borrowed a Brain from the Almighty

Thunder exploded and Chen Luo groaned.

The body of the soul seemed to have been severely injured, with a few cracks appearing. He had prepared many ways to survive the tribulation, but he had never expected that the heavenly tribulation would pull him over. The last three tribulations of the nine-nine tribulations were beyond the scope of normal immortal cultivation. Even if a cultivator who survived the tribulation to this level failed, he would not die, but would survive as a soul.

The flying boat sailed away.

The Qi-refining monks on the boat were unaware of this. They had already withdrawn their gaze and focused on the upcoming mission. In their opinion, the great being who was transcending the tribulation in the sky was too far away from them and was from another world.

Chen Luo was suspended in the air, and his soul returned to his body.

A tingling sensation spread throughout my body, and I felt like I was about to break.

The calamity cloud dissipated, and when he opened his eyes, he was back in the sky. The valley had changed beyond all recognition, and the ground was charred black. The puppets of Zhao Qi and others were still standing beside him. The series of back-up plans he had prepared before the calamity had no effect in the end.

"You've made it?"

Zhao Qi looked at Chen Luo. He could clearly feel that the calamity clouds above were dissipating. The heavenly calamity that had struck down before quietly turned into nothingness. The remaining power merged into his body, further transforming Chen Luo's foundation.

"Two more to go."

Chen Luo raised his head.

He was now extremely exhausted, and his spiritual power was exhausted. If it weren't for the power of the heavenly tribulation constantly transforming his body, he would have collapsed long ago. But even so, he still felt that it was difficult to continue. That is to say, Chen Luo had practiced to the limit every step of the way to get to where he is now.

The early accumulation is like a ladder, and each step is a brick.

When the great catastrophe came, the stairs that had been built would just reach this height. If one took a wrong step, it would be impossible to survive until now.

The eightieth heavenly tribulation!

With the previous experience, Chen Luo didn’t know what form the remaining two heavenly tribulations would take.

The calamity energy gathered, and although it had not yet fallen, the pressure had already begun to show its ferociousness. The ground of the valley was like colorful dough, irregularly twisted, and the surrounding area became spiral like a kaleidoscope. On the spiral colored ground, there grew many exotic flowers and fruits. The leaves were emerald green, and crystal clear water droplets hung on the tips of the leaves, like pearls. The sound of gurgling water came to my ears.

Tick

A drop of water fell on Chen Luo's face.

"A cave?"

Chen Luo saw the scene clearly. The calamity clouds in the sky disappeared and turned into a spiral cave wall. Colorful stalactites were hanging upside down on it, and the water drop just now fell from one of them.

"What about the Heavenly Tribulation?"

A trace of doubt flashed through Chen Luo's mind.

The previous 79 tribulations came one after another, leaving him no chance to breathe. But when it came to the 80th tribulation, there was suddenly an extra blank time, which made Chen Luo a little uncomfortable for a while.

'Under the twelfth pillar, there are living creatures.'

In the external brain, the Black Snake Demon Saint suddenly emerged. As one of the few brains in Chen Luo that crossed the threshold between immortal and mortal, the Black Snake Demon Saint became more active after Chen Luo survived the heavenly tribulation. He recalled many things from his previous life.

Chen Luo quickly calmed his mind and his spiritual power formed a circle of defense around him.

This is not a safe place. In the midst of a great calamity, danger could come at any time. Spreading his spiritual sense, Chen Luo moved forward cautiously.

After walking a short distance, he saw the 'living creature' sensed by the Black Snake Demon Saint.

Under the twelfth spiral stone pillar, a green hairy monster was curled up there. At first glance, it looked like a pile of weeds, but if you looked closely, you would find that this ball of hair was shaking slightly, as if it had encountered something terrible.

"Robbery?"

Chen Luo stopped.

He suspected that the eightieth heavenly tribulation had taken on a human form, and that the scenes before him were the result of the eightieth heavenly tribulation.

The hairy monster seemed not to have heard it and continued to curl up beside the stone pillar, its body shaking even more violently.

Chen Luo did not go over. He bypassed the hairy monster and searched around. As time passed, the feeling of uneasiness in his heart became more and more obvious. Chen Luo could feel that the power of the heavenly tribulation was gathering, and he had to activate it as soon as possible, otherwise the result might be beyond his expectations.

After walking around, Chen Luo returned to his original position.

This cave was sealed, and the edges were all twisted spiral rocks, so the body couldn't penetrate it at all. The closer he got to the edge, the stronger the dangerous atmosphere became, so Chen Luo had no choice but to return here.

"Daoyou."

Chen Luo asked tentatively from a distance of dozens of steps.

The hairy monster suddenly stopped shaking. The next moment, he was in a trance, and a cold hand suddenly rushed out from the side and grabbed Chen Luo's arm.

"It's you!"

A hoarse voice sounded.

“It’s you!!”

The hairy monster that was originally curled up beside the stone pillar suddenly rushed over. The green-haired face was blank, without any facial features. Only thick green hair. The weirdest thing was that the arm he stretched out was holding Chen Luo tightly, and the cold breath connected the two of them together.

A familiar feeling came over me.

'This is... my hand.'

Chen Luo looked over subconsciously and found that the hand holding his wrist was the one he had discarded.

At this moment, Chen Luo finally knew where this spiral cave was. When he broke through the middle stage of the tribulation before, he accidentally triggered the heavenly tribulation. He stretched his right hand into a mysterious space, grabbed a few green hairs from it, and used these hairs to grow a nine-leaf spiritual grass.

The Nine-Leaf Spiritual Herb played a big role in his ability to break through the Tribulation Perfection so quickly. At that time, he was also pinched by a cold arm just like now. However, he had not yet completed the accumulation, so he chose to cut off his arm.

'Did it start from that time?'

Chen Luo's heart sank as he found that he couldn't pull his arm away. This hand that originally belonged to him, after being integrated into the green-haired monster, had a strange aura that made it impossible for him to avoid it. Even when his magical powers were activated, they would automatically ignore that arm, and some of his spiritual power would even flow through his wrist.

According to the "judgment" of these spiritual powers, that arm also belongs to Chen Luo.

It's part of his body.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time."

The green-haired monster's voice sounded. Although he had no facial features, Chen Luo could clearly feel his emotions.

The monster is laughing.

"I have a great fortune waiting for you to take it."

The green-haired monster grabbed Chen Luo's wrist and pulled it down hard. Instantly, the sky and the earth spun, and the colorful vortex in the entire space began to rotate, including the spiral stalactites above and the colorful vortex on the edge in the distance, all of which began to flow.

Countless whirlpools were brought together by this force and finally converged into one big whirlpool.

'careful!!'

Zhao Qi's voice rang in his ears, but strangely, there seemed to be a layer between them, so it was not clear.

Chen Luo tried hard to resist.

But the consciousness was getting deeper and deeper.

"Is this a calamity from heaven? Or was it a conspiracy?"

The thought flashed through my mind, and then I fell into endless darkness.

call!!

Chen Luo sat up suddenly and subconsciously raised his hand to look at his wrist. The arm that was holding him disappeared, leaving only a faint mark on his arm, like a birthmark.

"What is this place?"

Chen Luo turned his head and looked around. Soon he found a familiar trace. This was his hometown when he was a child, and also his first place of residence in this world, Chenjia Village outside Qingya County.

The bed he was sleeping on at this moment was the one his father Chen Dachuan had made for him in his memory.

The craftsmanship is not very good, but it is sturdy.

Chen Luo got up, got out of bed and opened the window.

The spiral space outside was no longer there, but the familiar world in memory. The golden sunlight poured in from the window, shining warmly on his face. Chen Luo stood by the window and tried to call upon his spiritual power. But his body was empty. The spiritual power that he had cultivated for nearly a thousand years disappeared without a trace.

"Inner demon? Or an illusion?"

Stopping his action, Chen Luo began to analyze the current situation. He didn't know where the green-haired monster came from, and he didn't know whether the other party's last move had pulled him out of the calamity.

There was no reference for anything he had experienced before, so Chen Luo could only rely on his own guesses.

He walked slowly to the wall, ran his fingers across the wall, and touched a raised secret compartment in the corner. He reached out and pressed it gently, and heard a "click" sound, and the cabinet door opened. A little dust flew out, which was particularly conspicuous in the sunlight.

This wooden cabinet was made for him by his third uncle.

It was where he hid his food, and everything was the same as he remembered, including the fruits in the cupboard.

Chenjia Village is very poor.

It was difficult to have enough food and clothing, and Chen Luo could not stand this kind of poverty, so he chose to go to Qingya County and follow his third uncle to learn how to bury corpses, becoming the burial master that everyone looked down upon.

After closing the cabinet door, Chen Luo found a few more things in the room. They were all exactly the same as he remembered, even the damaged patterns were not deviated. With Chen Luo's level of cultivation, it was absolutely impossible for him to remember things wrongly.

“I can only go out and take a look.”

Putting down the wood carving in his hand, Chen Luo walked to the door, opened it and walked out.

Outside the house, everything was peaceful. The old lady next door was feeding the hens just as I remembered, and a few little kids in open-crotch pants with a tuft of hair on their heads were playing hide-and-seek in a grain pile not far away.

"Could it be that we have returned to the past?"

Chen Luo recalled the scene when he and Le Qingzhu and others "borrowed ancient things" back, and had some guesses about the scene before him.

"The ancient things in the calamity are getting weirder and weirder. I don't know what the green-haired monster is planning."

Chen Luo gathered his thoughts, closed his eyes, and began to call upon the brain of the Immortal Emperor Changqing. In this situation, only Brother Changqing could make him feel at ease, no other brain could. (End of this chapter)
