My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 234 Possessed by Five Ghosts
Ten days later.

Xinyou District, inside the Lu Ku residence.

The six siblings of Wushan sat silently in the living room, their faces expressionless, the atmosphere frozen.

More or less, there was a hint of anxiety in their eyes, like prisoners awaiting judgment.

Only when the sun had set did the group finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Ha...he finally got stuck!" Ai Ji couldn't help but laugh.

“Even if he were stuck, he would have been able to control all six people at the same time long ago,” Shi Xian said quietly.

Ai Ji froze on the spot like a duck whose neck had been grabbed.

"We have no room to resist," Yu Lin said in a muffled voice.

"At worst, we'll all die together!" Ai Ji shouted.

Xu Rao didn't speak, but his face was extremely gloomy.

"Given the restrictions imposed on us by the Heart-to-Heart Rope, it's almost impossible for us to perish together," Wu Ruo said, shaking his head slightly.

"What if we use someone else to do the dirty work?" Xu Rao asked coldly.

“We don’t know his true identity,” Yu Lin said. “Moreover, he seems to be able to detect ambushes in advance.”

"This is it!" Ai Ji said dejectedly. "We don't even know what they'll make us do."

“It’s nothing more than murder and arson,” Shi Xianqing said coldly.

"But what if he thinks we're just going to our deaths?"

"He also knows how to make medicine and pills. What if he lets us test his medicines?"

"Our lives are completely in his hands; he's capable of any kind of perverted and evil deed!"

Thinking about all the terrible consequences that might come.

The room fell silent immediately.

……

Behind the low hill courtyard, in a small valley.

Chen Mu sat cross-legged on the black cloud formed by the five ghosts and spirits.

As he muttered incantations, a powerful repulsive force suddenly emanated from the earth.

In the next instant, Chen Mu's figure shot out at a height of half a meter off the ground.

A strong wind blew in, making the gray shorts flutter and the hair bounce in waves.

Chen Mu couldn't contain his excitement: "Wuhu!"

He was carried by the five ghosts, flying in circles in the small valley.

It would stop abruptly, climb higher, make sharp turns, and then tumble and surge forward.

They flew for almost half an hour before finally stopping, still wanting more.

"So, you could say I can fly now?" Chen Mu chuckled.

Although it can only fly a maximum of five meters, its speed is only slightly faster than a galloping horse. It's still not as fast as it can run on its own.

But... it can fly!
The five ghostly spirits helped him achieve the ability to leave the ground.

The repulsive force of the "Arcane Technique" acts on the ground, replacing the force exerted by the feet, and pushes him forward.

"I wonder what secret technique Supervisor Song used," Chen Mu couldn't help but think back.

He had seen Song Wuji twice, and both times the other man was standing in the sky.

"I want to too..." Chen Mu said with longing.

……

Low hill courtyard.

After lunch, Chen Mu started working in the west courtyard.

The new seedlings of *Solanum tuberosum* have been successfully cultivated and are ready for transplanting.

Having learned from his previous experience, Chen Mu bought more seeds; of the sixty seeds, fifty-five sprouted.

After transplanting, it is estimated that about fifty plants will survive.

"Once it's fully ripe, we won't need to worry about the raw materials for a year." Chen Mu lay in the rocking chair, taking a satisfied sip of her cool tea.

The calming pill is a consumable item, so there's no worry about selling it.

This business is enough to support his training for a long time.

"Caution and stability are the keys to long-term success." Chen Mu glanced at the Heart-to-Heart Mantra, which was more than halfway to the seventh rank.

"I was hoping to advance another level, what a pity."

Upon reaching the seventh tier, the experience gained from the Heart-to-Heart Spell is reduced by half.

Even if you work non-stop all day, you'll only gain four or five hundred experience points.

Compared to before, it suddenly felt like a bad deal.

"I can only practice a little bit every day, it's all about perseverance." Chen Mu shrugged.

He brought up the gray wall and looked at each entry.

Writing: 6656/10000/Second order;

Drawing: 5967/10000/Second order;

Culinary Skill: 8870/10000/Tier 4; Medicine Making Skill: 5057/10000/Tier 5;

Five Ghosts Moving Mountain Spell: 9721/10000/Seventh Rank;

Transformation Technique: 6137/10000/Tier 4;

Planting: 1803/10000/Tier 3;

Hundred Intent Aura: 7618/10000;

Emptiness Technique: 5/10000/Second Tier;

Heart-to-Heart Mantra: 5696/10000/Seventh Rank;

"The Five Ghosts Moving Mountain Spell is almost at an advanced level too." Chen Mu said with a gratified smile.

The Five Ghosts Bag accompanied him for many years, and he relied on it to save his life and turn the tide on many occasions.

"The Spirit Light Technique is progressing at a steady pace. But it will only take a month and a half to complete."

"We still need to work on the Heart-to-Heart Mantra."

"Then let's break through the Five Ghosts Moving Mountains first," Chen Mu decided.

……

Seven days later.

Behind the low hill, in a small valley.

"Possessed by five ghosts!"

With a low shout, five wisps of black smoke appeared around Chen Mu and then swished into his body.

He swelled up like an inflating balloon, his height suddenly increasing to two and a half meters.

The muscles throughout his body surged and swelled, even stretching out through his skin like steel cables.

The skin quickly turned indigo, with wispy silver threads faintly visible beneath.

An invisible force appeared, and her hair flew involuntarily, as if it were floating in water.

Chen Mu tentatively waved to a long boulder a hundred meters away.

boom!
The stone was instantly shattered by an invisible force.

A superhuman power surged through his entire body, and Chen Mu felt that he could now easily tear apart the spiritual light he sensed.

This made him want to roar to the sky and release this power.

At the same time, a destructive and devouring desire was surging wildly in his mind.

what!
With a low shout, Chen Mu dispelled the secret technique.

The five ghosts reappeared. Chen Mu shrank like a deflated balloon, turning back into the muscular young man who was 1.8 meters tall.

"Hoo... This is really weird..." Chen Mu gasped for breath, his hands on his knees, feeling incredibly weak. It was as if the five ghosts had left, taking his life force with them.

Five Ghosts Moving Mountain Spell: 21/10000/Eighth Rank;

With deliberately prioritizing his training time, the Five Ghosts Moving Mountain Spell quickly advanced.

The Five Ghosts Possession technique is a secret method that one comprehends after breaking through to the eighth rank.

It can allow the five evil spirits to merge into the body, multiplying the body's strength.

He had just felt that power; it felt like a single punch could kill him.

Moreover, it can also unleash an enhanced version of the Qi Restriction Technique that covers a hundred miles.

But the side effects...

Chen Mu gave a wry smile.

You can tell just by looking at his current weakened state.

"The key is that he's also prone to going crazy." He wouldn't forget that crazy destructive urge he'd just felt.

It has an even stronger devouring desire than when using the Five Ghosts Moving Mountains technique.

"That's like having a trump card," Chen Mu shook his head.

This was because he had practiced the Cloud Mirage Armor Technique, causing his physique to shift towards that of a Yin spirit.

If an ordinary person were to use the Five Ghosts Possession Technique, Chen Mu wasn't even sure if the other party would survive.

Even if he were to use it, he could only last for two minutes at most.

Even if he takes more, his body won't have any problems, but he feels he'll probably go crazy.

"I wonder if I can extend the time once I reach the eighth level of perfection," Chen Mu thought to himself.

Should we allocate more time to the Five Ghosts Moving Mountains?
Chen Mu immediately shook his head.

Gaining experience through daily use is sufficient.

Just like this time, he didn't practice much, but the Five Ghosts Moving Mountain skill gradually reached its maximum level.

This always gave him a sense of surprise, like finding a hundred dollars in clothes he never wore.

"It seems the Shibufune will arrive tomorrow."

"This upgrade of the Five Ghosts Moving Mountains is inseparable from my years of diligent practice."

"Is it too much to reward myself by listening to a piece of music?"

"Okay! It's settled then!"
