My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 447 Magical Powers

The camp of the Third Banner of the Flame Army.

Chen Mu sat in the corner with a distressed expression. He never expected that he would lose the Yellow Spring Department after just getting the Yellow Spring Guide to level three.

"Buy another copy of the Three-Turn Yuan-Seizing Spell? Head to the Yuan-Gathering Department to grind experience?" The thought had barely crossed his mind when he couldn't help but grin.

What if the Caiyuan Tribe is as dangerous as the Huangquan Tribe?
He had heard before that the Dew Gathering Spell had failed and that the Yuan Gathering Department was in big trouble. He was glad that he had chosen the Yellow Springs Department.

now……

Chen Mu was lost and confused.

He felt that nowhere in the Hai camp was safe.

"What a lousy place this is!"

He couldn't help but miss Chicken Coop Road. Although it was chaotic back then, he at least had his own little wooden hut where he could hide and grind experience points every day. Even if he encountered danger, the vast open world offered him plenty of directions to escape.

Unlike here, where there are soul-summoning banner marks on your body, you can't even run away!
"What a terrible place!"

……

in the afternoon.

After wandering around all day and listening to all sorts of rumors, Shi Dechun returned to the barracks.

"I heard that the Underworld Department has lowered its assessment standards and is recruiting on a large scale."

"To prevent the water apes from launching another sneak attack, General Lan specially dispatched ghost soldiers to guard the area."

"Brother Chen, aren't you going to sign up?"

Chen Mu shook his head and sighed: "I dare not go..."

Ghost soldiers guarding? Wasn't that always the case?
As a key location for the Hai-character camp, how could Wuditan lack protection?

Even with magical protection, the main camp was still successfully ambushed by the Crimson-Eyed Water Ape.

Upon hearing this, Shi Dechun chuckled and said, "It's better if you don't go..."

What's wrong with this old man? I can't go to the Underworld, so why are you laughing?
Chen Mu's face immediately darkened.

Shi Dechun said in a serious tone, "We've been traveling together ever since the River of Oblivion! I'm so happy that our friendship can continue!"

Do you think I believe it or not?

Chen Mu glared at Old Man Shi.

"Hehe, the main thing is that it's safer to stay with Brother Chen. I won't be able to sleep soundly if you really leave."

How come this old guy has more confidence in me than I do myself?

Chen Mu shook his head and smiled bitterly.

You can sleep soundly now, but I can't sleep at all.

……

late at night.

Chen Mu crawled into the underground chamber and habitually took out the Forgetful River Stone. Only when he heard the sound of the Forgetful River flowing did he suddenly come back to his senses.

"I must be out of my mind. I've already confirmed that I can't go to the Underworld, so why am I still suffering this torment of cultivation?"

He took out a soft couch and sat down, his thoughts becoming increasingly chaotic.

After a long while, he finally let out a long breath and slowly suppressed the restlessness in his heart.

"I still need to keep working on this experience."

"Once the Ghost Mark is mastered, the strength of the Heavenly Demon True Form will be comparable to that of the Yin Soldiers. At that time, hiding under the Flame Banner with the strength of the Yin Soldiers will definitely be much safer."

boom!
He activated the Flying Flame Sutra, and black flames covered his entire body.

With a thought, the waters of the River of Oblivion rose into the air and quickly transformed into a human-shaped water ball, engulfing him from head to toe.

……

The central stone hall of the Hai character camp.

“Not everyone can survive the Blood God Child transformation ritual. Your approach of keeping the Blood God Child conscious as much as possible is too slow and inefficient.”

"Now that the Gates of Hell have been suppressed, you are the only one in the camp. You can go all out and devour the evil spirits to your heart's content." The Blind Child secretly encouraged from the shadows.

Lan Zhang remained unmoved as he sat in the stone chair: "No matter how much ordinary creatures devour, they are nothing more than mindless worms. It may seem to enhance the power of the Blood Cloud, but in reality, it is just a pile of loose sand, something that can be broken with a single poke."

“But that’s how the Blood Nerve has always been trained. The more Blood God Children you devour and create, the stronger you become,” the Blind Child retorted.

"Is it really true that it has always been this way?" Lan Zhang chuckled. "I bet nine out of ten of those who cultivate according to the rules have already gone mad, haven't they?"

The blind boy paused.

"In my opinion, the Blood God's children are just a group of soldiers."

"You know a lot about blood nerve cultivation, but when it comes to training and commanding troops, you are not as good as me."

"The blood nerves can never completely erase the primordial spirit consciousness; sooner or later, they will gather together and turn against it."

"It would be better to retain individual consciousness, take my will as the military order, and unify all the Blood God Sons using the methods of leading troops."

"As long as we maintain unity of will and prevent a mutiny, I won't go crazy even if I devour the entire Hai-character camp!" The Blind Boy was astonished.

In the past, all cultivators of the Blood Nerve had tried their best to erase the will of the Blood God Child. But even so, they could only delay the onset of madness, but could not eliminate the possibility of going insane.

But this guy in front of us is insanely preserving the consciousness of all the Blood Gods, and then using his own will to unify all the voices and lead all the Blood Gods in one direction.

It's truly insane, but if he succeeds, this guy might actually develop a blood nerve and stop going crazy!
“If you cultivate according to your idea, it will definitely take a lot of time to filter and digest. You must first eliminate Shen Yan’s hidden dangers.”

“Shen Yan is cunning and treacherous. He deliberately left a clone outside beforehand. Our plan to lure and kill him was not completely successful. I’m afraid he will find a way to contact Yin Ming.”

“You have completely transformed the Yellow Springs Department, but there are still many people in the camp who can summon the waters of the River of Oblivion and connect with the underworld.”

"If we can gather Shen Yan together, although we can't open the gates of hell, it's not impossible to send out some information."

Lan Zhang nodded slightly and said softly, "Seal off the camp inside and out, and search for all the spirits that can connect to the River of Oblivion."

"Follow the order!"

A series of blood-red shadows suddenly flew out from behind him and disappeared into the hazy night in the blink of an eye.

……

The Underworld Department was attacked.

The entire Hai-character camp was placed under lockdown and martial law.

The ghost soldiers no longer went out to war, but instead patrolled and defended the camp all day long.

Chen Mu's mind gradually settled down, and he focused wholeheartedly on practicing his supernatural powers.

The changes in the Yellow Springs Department made him realize that instead of thinking about transferring to a safe team, it would be better to strengthen his capabilities and improve his ability to cope with sudden changes.

Time flies, and seven or eight days have passed in the blink of an eye.

The Hai-character camp remained sealed off, and Chen Mu stayed obediently in his barracks, focusing all his attention on practicing the Ghost Pattern.

That night, in a secret underground chamber.

A thick white mist billowed out, and Chen Mu reverted to his true form, absorbing the essence of the water ape to restore his damaged Heavenly Demon true form as usual.

I thought it would end soon, but even after the more than three-meter-tall water ape in front of me was drained, the feeling of depletion coming from the secret point between my eyebrows still didn't stop.

Chen Mu raised an eyebrow and immediately took out the Water Ape, continuing to use the Soul-Seizing and Essence-Returning Technique.

After five water apes were drained of their life force, a feeling of fullness finally came from between his eyebrows.

Chen Mu eagerly transformed into his true form as a celestial demon. He immediately noticed that the fine roots growing from the vertical line between his eyebrows had already spread throughout his body along his blood vessels.

"The supernatural demonic runes are complete!"

He was overjoyed and carefully examined himself. He immediately discovered that a large amount of Yin spiritual power was being continuously generated from the silver network.

The divine power that had just been exhausted was easily replenished, and continued to be generated slowly and steadily.

A tremendous force continuously surged from within him.

"Is this the supernatural ghost pattern?" Chen Mu couldn't help but clench his fist.

Almost instinctively, he channeled his spiritual power into the vertical line between his eyebrows, and the network of silver threads covering his entire body immediately shone brightly.

The next moment, Chen Mu's muscles swelled and tangled rapidly, his skin turned blue at a visible speed, his body grew taller rapidly, and his head reached the top of the secret chamber in the blink of an eye.

He didn't even have time to bend over. His vision went black, and his upper body plunged into the hardened mud at the top of the secret chamber with a thud.

Chen Mu used both hands to lift himself off the roof, then sat down cross-legged, finally having time to examine the changes in himself.

Standing five meters tall, with indigo skin, surrounded by black mist, and gleaming silver vertical lines between his brows, with faint silver twisted patterns beneath his skin.

"It's almost a carbon copy of the Five Ghosts Possession Form!" Chen Mu was quite surprised.

"So, when I used the Five Ghosts Possession technique before, I was actually activating the Heavenly Demon True Form in advance?"

"I don't know whether it was the possession of the Five Ghosts that created this Yin Soldier form, or whether the true form of the Cloud Mirage Demon influenced the possession of the Five Ghosts in turn."

Chen Mu pondered for a moment, then shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He didn't even know what a cloud mirage was, so there was no point in thinking about it any further.

"Everyone says that mastering the Ghost Mark will awaken supernatural powers, so what about mine?" Chen Mu withdrew his Yin Spirit power and transformed into an ordinary Yin soldier.

"With my lousy bewitching abilities?"

"That can be considered a supernatural power?"

He explored the silver ghost pattern from top to bottom, but suddenly felt a special pull, as if an invisible door had appeared between his eyebrows.

He only had a slight thought.

The next moment, Chen Mu transformed into a ball of dark light and shadow, rapidly spinning and collapsing towards his brow, and then with a whoosh, he vanished without a trace.

When I opened my eyes again, I found myself in a familiar, dark space.

He looked around and saw only pure blackness, then turned his head and saw the real flesh and blood body floating in mid-air.

"This is... Thousand Lanterns City?!"

"The lantern-shaped black monster that was devoured by the true form of the Heavenly Demon has actually been absorbed and transformed into my own divine power?!"
