My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 239 Fire Cloud Gourd

Chapter 239 Fire Cloud Gourd
Four days later in the afternoon

Behind the low hill, in a small valley.

Chen Mu stood on the mountaintop, looking down into the valley, holding the Fiery Cloud Gourd in his right hand and muttering incantations.

As the incantation was uttered, Chen Mu felt his brow open, and a cool aura surged out.

boom!
Like a flamethrower, a burst of blue flame suddenly shot out from the mouth of the black gourd.

The flames surged and quickly formed a fireball three meters in diameter in mid-air.

The air itself was distorted by the intense heat.

The next moment, the fireball shot out with a roar and crashed into the ravine.

puff!
There was a muffled sound.

The ground in the ravine was instantly blasted open, creating a crater five or six meters in diameter.

Chunks of dark red, semi-melted stone flew into the air and scattered everywhere.

hum!
Black smoke billowed as Chen Mu appeared at the edge of the pit. The black smoke around his spirit armor automatically activated, resisting the still unquenched scorching flames.

"Wow, that's amazing!" Chen Mu's heart skipped a beat.

Fortunately, I interrupted Lu Ku's spell in time.

Otherwise, it's really hard to say who will emerge victorious!
However, it seems that the flames I emitted were stronger.

Chen Mu thought for a moment, and a realization dawned on him: "It should be related to the method of triggering it."

Lu Ku can only use his own blood as an energy source.

However, he can use the Spirit Armor Technique to absorb and refine the earth's spiritual energy to perform it.

Is this the correct way to use a magical artifact?

Chen Mu suddenly realized.

"Another trump card!" Chen Mu exclaimed with delight as the gray wall materialized before his eyes.

Fire Cloud Spell: 563/10000/Tier 1;
Let's make some arrangements! It's so powerful, we definitely have to use it!
……

Two days later.

As usual, Chen Mu rode the Yin-Yang Black Cloud to deliver medicine and collect payment from Shang Huan.

As usual, he stopped at a distance from the house and released the five ghostly spirits to investigate.

But the ghost had just drifted into the courtyard.

Then I saw a dull-looking man in his early twenties staring coldly at me.

The other person's eyes flashed with golden light, and then they jumped onto the courtyard wall, instantly locking onto their side.

Chen Mu's pupils suddenly contracted. Without having time to think about the person's identity, he turned and ran.

Not only that, he was also chanting incantations, activating the illusion technique. With the repulsive force of his feet, his speed suddenly doubled.

He was like an arrow drawn from a bow, cutting a straight line across a vast field of yellow rice, and disappearing instantly beside the house.

With the wind whistling in his ears, Chen Mu dared not slow down at all.

That person could actually see the invisible ghosts and spirits?!

who is it?

Why are you looking for yourself?
It must be the seven Wu brothers who caused trouble again!

In that fleeting glance, he had already seen several people in Shang Huan's residence... Hmm? They seemed to be having a pleasant conversation?
know?

Just as his mind was racing with thoughts.

A sense of crisis suddenly came from the sky.

Chen Mu looked up and saw a huge swallow-shaped paper kite suddenly streak across the sky.

A dark shadow leaped down from the kite, carrying a strong gust of wind, and crashed down towards them.

The skin on the other person's cheeks and neck glowed with a pale gold color, and their right fist, clenched and pulled back, shone even more brightly!

Don't hide!
There's no escaping it!
"The Five Ghosts Possession Technique!" came a low shout.

The five evil spirits suddenly entered the body.

Chen Mu instantly swelled into a two-and-a-half-meter-tall burly man.

The muscles were bulging and stringy, the skin turned indigo with mysterious silver spots, and the silver vertical lines between the eyebrows had a silvery sheen.

The next instant, his right fist shot out like a cannonball.

what!
The golden and indigo fists collided without any fancy moves.

boom!
A burst of energy suddenly spread from the point of contact.

Click click click...

The surrounding yellow rice was instantly cut off by the strong wind.

Mo Wuzhou used the momentum to flip in mid-air. Like a feather, he stood lightly on top of a yellow rice plant.

Is this Gongsun Sheng?

Mo Wuzhou stared at the two-and-a-half-meter-tall, muscular man opposite him, whose hands were covered in indigo-colored skin and who was surrounded by swirling black smoke.

It's eerie and doesn't seem like a good person!

"Gongsun Sheng? Aren't you my trusted confidant? Why are you running away?"

Is this person Mo Wuzhou?!
Sure enough, once involved in Lin Su's attack on the disciples of the Upper Academy, it was difficult to extricate oneself from the entanglement.

"It was just a joke. For details, you can ask Shang Huan," Chen Mu said calmly.

They're probably not here to cause trouble. Otherwise, the inspection bureau would be the one to handle them.

Is there more to this story? Mo Wuzhou's heart skipped a beat.

"Master Gongsun has already seen through the illusions and cultivated magical power. Why is he lingering here instead of going to the Upper Academy to accumulate Taoist cultivation?"

Seeing through illusion? Magical power? They seem to have misunderstood my level of cultivation. Is it because of the Spirit Armor Technique?
Chen Mu narrowed his eyes.

Daoist practice? What is that?
Suppressing his doubts, Chen Mu said calmly, "Make money."

Mo Wuzhou: "..."

Is it so real?

"Go to the Upper Academy to learn the Five Elements Qi Absorption Secret Method, refine the essence of the five grains, and earn more and faster." Mo Wuzhou didn't believe it.

This person is probably good at making medicine. If he takes the opportunity to learn alchemy, wouldn't that be even more profitable?

If I had mastered the skill of breaking through illusions, I would have gone long ago! It's just that my spiritual insight hasn't been achieved yet.

"I'm afraid of danger," Chen Mu said calmly.

Mo Wuzhou's face remained stiff and expressionless, but his eyes widened involuntarily.

Are you afraid of danger?
With your black smoke and green face, you're the dangerous one, okay?

Mo Wuzhou didn't speak; he was a little undecided at the moment.

Through previous conversations with Mr. Hao, it was discovered that this person seemed to have no connection to Lin Su's attack.

"It seems to be a misunderstanding," Mo Wuzhou said calmly.

However, this person has a cold demeanor, and his secret techniques exude a sinister aura; it's unclear what his true intentions are...

Never mind, this has nothing to do with me. Just let Senior Brother Liang know.

Besides, this person is very strong, and it's hard to know what the outcome would be if we continued fighting.

Thinking this, his expression softened, and the golden light secret technique dissipated.

"Mr. Gongsun, we shall meet again."

With that, he flicked his right hand, and the swallow-shaped paper kite suddenly flew down from the sky.

Mo Wuzhou leaped up from the ground and jumped onto the kite.

Before leaving, he thought for a moment and then said, "Mr. Gongsun, your secret technique is full of sinister energy. If you practice it for a long time, it will inevitably damage your essence."

"For the sake of the path, it is best to use it less and practice it less."

Without waiting for Chen Mu's reply, the kite spiraled upwards, then swiftly tore through the air and disappeared into the horizon.

Chen Mu only breathed a sigh of relief after the other party disappeared.

They quietly dispersed the Five Ghosts Moving Mountains team, who were almost about to be defeated.

If it weren't for his status, I would have devoured him whole long ago.

He endured his physical weakness.

Chen Mu quickly arrived at Shang Huan's residence.

Pretending everything was normal, he tossed the other party twenty bottles of calming pills.

Then he waved to the six siblings of Wushan and said, "Go back and cultivate, and mind your own business."

It immediately disappeared under the cover of black smoke.

……

Five days later, at the top of a low hill two miles from Old Hao.

A withered old tree stood quietly on the mountaintop. A plume of black smoke shrank into a ball, obediently crouching among the dense foliage.

Only when a huge swallow-shaped kite with a wingspan of five meters soared up and disappeared into the horizon did he quietly slip down from the old tree and return to the yellow sprout rice field.

Inside the courtyard of the low hill.

Chen Mu lay in the rocking chair and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief: "Finally gone."

Although Mo Wuzhou left at the time, he later had a private talk with Old Hao.

He was probably trying to confirm whether he was truly unrelated to the Lin Su incident.

"It should be alright now."

"But this guy can see ghosts?"

It might be some kind of secret technique; Chen Mu remembered that the other person's eyes were gleaming with golden light at the time.

"We can't use the Five Ghosts so recklessly anymore."

“And that Taoist cultivation method.” Chen Mu tapped the rocking chair armrest with his fingers, seemingly without a clear direction.

The secret method after sensing it seems that more than just white jade coins are needed.

"Never mind, we'll see when the time comes." Chen Mu shrugged.

He was still several days away from having a flash of inspiration.
