Chapter 196 I've Been Waiting for You for a Long Time
Chen Lang readily agreed. He would take whatever he wanted anyway, and he had no difficulty in choosing.
Soon, Chen Lang was taken to a mausoleum. Although he didn't know if he had visited it before, he was already familiar with the environment and there was no need to say more.
"I didn't see the inheritance before I came here." Chen Lang said.
"Of course I can't see it, because the inheritance is all preserved in my hands." The temple guardian waved his sleeves and robes, and the wind stirred.
Suddenly, the paintings of ancestors on the wall came to life, with warm lines and an inexplicable Taoist charm.
This surprised Chen Lang. There was a painting of the tomb owner in every tomb. He had also explored it and even removed two wall bricks, but he couldn't find anything interesting about it.
It turned out to be hidden in Lao Deng’s hand!
"Then can't you just give it to me? Why do you still come to the grave?"
"A sense of ritual." The temple guardian replied.
Chen Lang thought to himself that since he has the inheritance of this family, doesn't he also have all the inheritance?
He looked at Lao Deng.
"Secret skills are not many, nor are they refined. There is nothing really important in this world, only resources." The temple guardian said, "If you can stand at a higher level, you can suppress all things with the power of your body. This is The road to simplicity.”
Chen Lang thought for a while and then gave up the idea of exploding the scroll.
If the Tianjian Sect has any good things, these old men may hide them, but Zhou Yuanxing is the heir of Zhou Tianzheng and will not keep it. Just give him a good beating.
After the temple guardian left, Chen Lang began to visualize this picture.
Soon, the system will show the identification result.
[Alchemy Refining Technique: A secret technique that can melt treasures into one body, extract essence, and refine elixirs. 】
It's really an unpretentious name.
Chen Lang finished reading the magical power, then opened the system and took out the skill book from the warehouse.
I originally wanted to keep learning the ancient secret technique given by Yan Xue'e, but the level of that thing is a bit high, and I can't even learn it in the intermediate skill book.
Then fix this first.
[Do you want to use the skill book to add points to the ‘Alchemy Technique’? 】
【yes. 】
[The proficiency level is full, and your alchemy skills have reached the advanced level. No one in the world understands it better than you. 】
Instantly, a powerful flow of information poured into my mind, and I felt like something was getting into my mind.
That thing, with an inexplicable and terrifying power, curled up in my mind and came to life.
Then, it spoke.
"Did you spot me?"
Chen Lang:?
"It doesn't matter. Since you are so anxious to find me, I will come first, but I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Before Chen Lang could react, he suddenly found that he couldn't move physically!
And that "power" was still hidden in his divine sea, and there was no big movement.
This made Chen Lang feel strange. Could it be that the system was Turing-ified? Why does the voice sound like a man's?
"Well, I found it."
At this time, the voice said again: "The things left by the southern leader are really useful. If it weren't for his puppetry, it would be difficult for me to succeed."
"The Hundred-Faced Demon King?" Chen Lang said.
"it's me."
The voice laughed in his mind, "How about it, are you surprised? I haven't left, I've been hiding next to you."
"Then you are really good at choosing." Chen Lang said.
"It must."
The Hundred-Faced Demon Lord said, "The Tao Zang of the Lu family is really good, but I think the stuff from the Zhong family will be better. I heard that the relationship between the Zhong family and you is pretty good, right?"
"What did you steal from Lu's house? Let me see it?" Chen Lang said.
"I got some, but not much. He also has a lot of good things, but they attract too much attention. Before I had time to do anything, you did something bad." The Hundred-Faced Demon Lord's voice suddenly turned cold, "Now it's you who pays. When the price comes."
Come on, Chen Lang felt a cold force flowing down his neck, as if a basin of ice water was poured on his head, but his body was clean and there was not a drop of sweat.
The physical body was gradually controlled.
"Hahaha! How about it? Do you regret it? Are you afraid?" came the voice in his head.
Chen Lang ignored him.
The Hundred-Faced Demon laughed wildly for a moment, and then he felt bored.
Because he can feel Chen Lang's mood now.
This made him a little embarrassed.
"To be honest, we are already acquaintances. We have met in the Qingmu Sect and we have met in the Southern Sect. Since you have guessed my identity and know what I do, why do you still have to expose me?
I eat my food and you live your life. Isn’t it good that we live in peace and harmony? "
Chen Lang understood what he meant, which meant that he revealed Lu Youzhi's true identity when Lu Ming came to him to solve the problem of the empress leaving a mark on Lu Youzhi.
But he didn't bother to explain that Lu Ming was another story. The real grudge between him and the Hundred-Faced Demon Lord had already been forged when the Lotus Sect saw Lu Youzhi's body.
It's hard to tell who is the one to blame, but fortunately he never likes to explain and is only good at doing things.
"Did you kill Lu Youzhi?" Chen Lang felt that his body was being eroded little by little, but he didn't care.
"I didn't kill him."
The Hundred-Faced Demon Lord said, "The moment Zhou Tianzheng appeared, he had already committed suicide out of fear of crime, before his father showed up.
I just invaded his memory before his death and imitated him. "
"That's still a man." Chen Lang commented.
"You should take care of yourself now." The Hundred-Faced Demon Lord said.
"Then how did you imitate so closely?" Chen Lang asked. He had also tried many times. This kid's imitation ability has reached the realm of unity between man and nature. He once doubted whether he had made a mistake, and even doubted whether the corpse he saw in Lotus Mountain was Lu Youzhi's, or another illusion?
"It's very simple."
"I ate his soul."
"He has become a part of me, and you will be too."
"It's a very powerful skill. Can I learn this?" Chen Lang asked.
"You are really eager to learn." The Hundred-Faced Demon Lord praised, "But it's a pity that you are going to die."
"Can I learn it after I die?" Chen Lang asked again.
He felt that the previous skill book was wasted, and this one was more useful.
"I can't learn it." The Hundred-Faced Demon Lord felt that Chen Lang was teasing him. This attitude did not have any fear before death, and there was no sense of ritual of taking over the body and killing people, which made him a little unhappy. His voice was very cold, "This is a natural ability. You can regard it as a special physique."
"That's a bit of a pity." Chen Lang expressed regret.
Then, Chen Lang suddenly felt that he could move.
But the voice of the Hundred-Faced Demon Lord came immediately, "Do you have any last words? I am a person who is very dedicated. If you have any unfulfilled last wishes, I can help you fulfill them after I finish my work."
"Yes, wait a moment."
Chen Lang was not in a hurry. He opened the system, then took out the Nine-Turn Pill and swallowed it.
Then, he took out a bronze bell, took out the cotton cloth stuffed underneath, injected true energy, and shook it gently.
At this moment, the Hundred-Faced Demon Lord had not yet devoured the soul and failed to obtain Chen Lang's memory, so he didn't know what Chen Lang was doing and just thought he was saving himself.
After doing this, Chen Lang asked: "By the way, you always devour other people's souls, then do you have a real body? Or do you only have a soul?"
"You don't need to know." The Hundred-Faced Demon Lord didn't answer, not because it was a secret, but because he felt that Chen Lang's tone was like interrogating a prisoner.
Suddenly, the Hundred-Faced Demon Lord realized something was wrong. He felt that his soul was rapidly weakening, and there was an irresistible force acting on him, causing him to age, disintegrate and die.
"Heavenly Tribulation!"
"Why is there a Heavenly Tribulation!" A horrified and shocked voice came from his head.
"You are a little noisy."
Chen Lang pinched his ears, and his body began to disappear. Cracks appeared on his arms and legs, and incense ash was puffing out.
[Repairing.]
But the Nine Revolution Pill was also taking effect, and a tug-of-war began again.
Now the smile shifted to Chen Lang's face, "If you don't have your real body, you can die."
