My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 365 Recruitment
Time flies, and spring returns to the earth.

On Eagle's Sorrow Cliff, apart from a touch of white snow on the mountaintop, the area below had turned a yellowish-green.

The waterfall on the mountainside changed from a drizzle to a roaring roar.

With the second-order ground-forming steel, the secret chamber was once again sunk and expanded by Chen Mu.

There is a two-story underground space, about 30 meters underground, with seven or eight bedrooms.

Chen Mu stood in the middle of the secret chamber, his magical powers intertwined.

A flash of black and red light appeared behind him, and a dark red phantom, two meters high and one and a half meters wide, about the size of two room doors, appeared.

Chen Mu looked back and became even more certain that the phantom was a humanoid statue wearing armor.

"Djinn God?"

"Does such a deity really exist?" Chen Mu couldn't help but think of the Winter Moon God and couldn't help but examine him closely.

The statue was draped in a black hooded cloak, with its head and face completely darkened.

The beast's head was ferocious, and dark gold threads were faintly visible on its dark red plate armor.

After looking at it for a while, Chen Mu actually felt that he was connected to the statue by blood.

"It doesn't seem to be an illusion."

The Giant Spirit Mystic Art seems to be quite different from other mystical arts.

Rather than a secret technique, it is more like a magical artifact, an artifact made from a mixture of one's own vital energy and magical power.

Hidden in an unknown space, it continuously accumulates power as Chen Mu refines it.

Once activated, it can quickly provide feedback, giving the user tremendous strength.

"Thankfully, it's not one of those supernatural or ghostly things."

He feared that this Giant Spirit God, like the Winter Moon God, possessed unknowable power. What if he unknowingly fell into its trap?
Senior Brother Liu is a cautionary tale.

With a sigh, Chen Mu put away the Giant Spirit Mystic Technique.

During this time, he also observed carefully, trying to find the location of the statue.

Unfortunately, even with his eyes wide open, Chen Mu only saw a flash of black and red light before the statue disappeared.

Using the Giant Spirit Divine Talisman to perceive, one can clearly sense the presence of the divine statue.

"magic."

Ultimately, I was just too short-sighted.

Chen Mu shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

When we become stronger in the future, perhaps we will be able to find out where the statue is located.

Back on the soft couch in a corner of the room, Chen Mu picked up the Rejuvenating Soup from the low table and drank it all in one gulp, staring blankly at the empty cup.

"I wonder what's so magical about the Rejuvenating Soup."

He clearly remembered Senior Brother Liu's greedy desire for it.

Afterwards, fearing there might be a problem, Chen Mu deliberately stopped for three days, but no addictive properties were found.

They even got tired of drinking too much and had to adjust the flavor to make it palatable.

"Only effective against ghost soldiers?"

"Another mystery."

After confirming that the gray wall did not indicate any danger, he continued to drink the soup and cultivate.

It was precisely because the Rejuvenating Soup replenished Qi, blood, and essence that the Giant Spirit Mystic Method progressed so rapidly.

He looked at the experience before him with satisfaction.

Giant Spirit God: 16/10000/Tier 4;

"make persistent efforts."

……

At the foot of Eagle's Sorrow Cliff, lies Fangshi Mountain Village.

Chen Mu walked into the deserted North District.

Only a few scattered roars could be heard as the beasts were slaughtered.

The tall, thin butcher sat idly behind the meat counter.

Upon seeing Chen Mu, he was immediately overjoyed.

"A distinguished guest has arrived!"

Ah……

I think it should be "White Jade Arrives at the Door".

Chen Mu chuckled and reached into his sleeve to pull out a piece of white jade.

“Brother Chen, this price…” he said, looking troubled.

"Another price increase?" Chen Mu raised an eyebrow. "How much?"

"Thirty-two pigs and rabbits, one hundred catties of white jade," Butcher Zhang said cautiously.

Several groups of customers have already been scared away by the high prices today.

"So expensive?" Chen Mu was also surprised. No wonder the North District of the market was deserted.

A single piece of white jade can buy three pounds of meat, enough to last at most two days. It's better to buy a bottle of fasting pills, which can sustain you for ten days.

"Isn't this all caused by the Dongling barbarians? There's a shortage of all kinds of supplies, and everything is getting more expensive," Butcher Zhang said with a forced smile.

He then became excited and said, "The villa has already made a move. When you come next time... and the time after that, the price may be lowered."

"Is the villa going to clear out the barbarians of the Six-Linked Mountains?" Chen Mu raised an eyebrow.

"It's just a rumor that came out today," Butcher Zhang said mysteriously.

"It is said that in a few days, the inspection team will be recruiting a large number of people to support Liulian Mountain."

Chen Mu nodded: "I really hope this chaos can end soon."

“Yes, if this continues, it won’t benefit anyone,” Butcher Zhang agreed.

"Let's start with a pig and a rabbit." The price was indeed expensive, but he still had to buy it. The Rejuvenation Soup was an essential item for cultivation.

"We've been preparing this for you for a while!" Butcher Zhang was overjoyed.

Big customer!

After paying, Chen Mu carried the bamboo basket and walked towards Hongcaotang, pondering as he went.

"One hundred catties of pork and rabbit meat yields thirty-two white jade pieces, plus various medicinal herbs, which amount to nearly forty pieces of Rejuvenation Soup per day."

"One hundred and twenty pills in three days, more expensive than the Qi-Nourishing Pill!"

Chen Mu was speechless.

"We need to entrust Hongcaotang to purchase a batch of gold beads."

"The refining of the Peiyuan Pill should be put on the agenda as soon as possible."

Golden pearls are the main ingredient in Peiyuan Dan.

Previously, relying on the Rejuvenating Soup, I only occasionally opened two furnaces of Nourishing Essence Pills to practice.

To gain experience quickly, it's essential to prepare all necessary materials in advance.

"Tsk tsk... The villa is too grand but useless."

"It's been months, and we still haven't taken down those Dongling barbarians who're running around everywhere?"

"Isn't Old Ghost Sun so capable? Why doesn't he go and deal with those local cultivators?"

"Hmph! I think he's just a bully at home!"

……

Several days later, in the underground chamber.

boom!
A loud popping sound came from the microwave oven as it heated braised pork.

Chen Mu held the three-legged, two-eared Hunyuan Furnace, his face falling.

"Another failure?!"

"Too big and it explodes, too small and it's just a blur, what exactly are the requirements for this thunderous roar?"

"It's definitely because of this broken stove!" Chen Mu slapped the blackened stove with his hand: "If you fail again, I'll fire you and make you a full-time stewer!"

Chen Mu angrily swept up the dregs of the medicine.

I lost all interest in practicing, so I climbed up the wooden building, slumped into a rocking chair by the window, and looked out at the small waterfall to catch my breath.

Not long after, the concentric rope above their heads suddenly vibrated.

The six Wushan brothers and sisters?
Chen Mu was surprised.

Since the last incident, Shang Huan has run back to Yuquan Mountain to guard his small shop and hasn't gone out. Lu Ku and the other six also stay at the patrol office every day to slack off.

The group hadn't contacted each other for a long time.

After a long while, Chen Mu stopped chanting the Heart-to-Heart Mantra and came to his senses.

"Are they really going to send people to support Liulian Mountain from Eagle's Sorrow Cliff?"

"What a good thing!"

"Let's restore order quickly, or we won't be able to afford meat anymore."

……

In the following days, Eagle's Sorrow Cliff suddenly became lively.

The Inspection Bureau offered high salaries to recruit people, and a large number of talented individuals eagerly applied.

Chen Mu also went to the market to join in the fun.

"Brother Chen, are you here to sign up too?" Butcher Zhang saw Chen Mu on the street and couldn't help but come over to ask.

"I'm just a skinny alchemist. War is dangerous and dangerous. How could I dare to join in this fun?" Chen Mu shook his head.

He then glanced at Butcher Zhang and said, "Besides, if I go, who will take care of your business?"

He had already figured it out: the butcher wasn't concerned about his own future, but rather the financial prospects of his meat shop.

Butcher Zhang chuckled and flattered, "Judging from your physique and bearing, you may appear thin and frail, but you are actually strong and capable. You are clearly a high-level cultivator with protective divine skills. You are far from being thin and frail."

Chen Mu waved his hand casually: "It's just some random practice, nothing as exaggerated as you make it out to be."

Blindly practicing?

You can't get this physique by just practicing blindly.

Butcher Zhang looked at Chen Mu meaningfully.

Chen Mu felt helpless.

This was even after he had altered and weakened his appearance using the Transformation Technique. Yet, the traces of his body refinement were still detectable.

For some unknown reason, the Yellow Springs General Principles transformed his physique, making him increasingly powerful.

As the third set of magical runes becomes more and more perfect, the body's ability to withstand the strain increases.

Now, with the Five Ghosts Possession activated, his height has exceeded five meters.

Even the Sun family, grandfather and grandson, weren't this exaggerated.

"I heard the pay is extremely generous this time. Sigh... If I weren't so reluctant to give up my shop, I would have signed up too," Butcher Zhang said regretfully.

"You might earn it, but you might not live to spend it," Chen Mu shook his head.

Fighting and killing are too dangerous.

With the mountain-protecting restrictions and the high-level cultivators who can condense their energy, it's still safer to stay on Eagle's Sorrow Cliff.

Chen Mu looked at the noisy crowd of people registering with satisfaction.

"Go ahead and strive for your future with confidence."

"Ideally, we can create a peaceful situation. So that I... cough cough, everyone can cultivate in peace."

"I'll stay behind and oversee things, which will also make it easier for me to refine a few more batches of fasting pills and take the opportunity to earn some extra money... oops! I mean, to take the opportunity to support the Six-Linked Mountains!"
