I Borrowed a Brain from the Immortal King

While burying a body, Chen Jie discovers that he can actually "borrow the minds of the dead" and obtain their memories!

"So Manager Wu hid the Nine Apertures Golden Pill there!"

"So the Third Madam and the Third Young Master have that kind of relationship... Yikes!"

"So this is what it feels like to master the Eighteen Dragon-Slaying Blades!"

"I hear you're quite the painter? Sorry, I'm borrowing your brain."

"I hear you know this area's terrain like the back of your hand? Sorry, I'm borrowing your brain."

"I hear you refuse to reveal where the secret treasure is hidden? Sorry, then I'll have to forcibly borrow your brain."

"You're the murderer! How do I know? I borrowed the victim's brain and saw it."

"So you're actually a super expert? I didn't know that before. I thought you were an ordinary person and was simply making friends with you. Really, why would I approach you because I found out elsewhere that you're a powerful expert? Didn't you say yourself that everyone who knew your identity had been killed? Could I possibly borrow the minds of the dead? Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"I'm actually your father. Immortal maiden, don't get angry. Your father is telling the truth. You have three moles on your right breast! And a triangular birthmark on the left side of your butt! Am I right? Your father took over this body. Be a good girl and call me Dad. Come on! Not being good, like when I used to spank you over that birthmark as a child? Good girl. Come here and let Dad hug you! Mwah!"

With one borrowed mind after another, Chen Jie transformed himself and soared to success.

Later on,

Chen Jie even borrowed the mind of an Immortal King. While others were still working out all sorts of painstaking schemes to become true immortals, he had already begun drafting his ninety-ninth plan to become an Immortal King!
