My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 503 Five Dragons United
At dawn, the sun rose in the east, and the sky was cloudless.

In a deep mountain valley, a shallow mountain stream, five meters wide, meanders through sparse forests.

A fallen, withered tree hangs horizontally on the riverbank, and gray-black stones of varying sizes are scattered along both sides.

A few remnants of thin ice, partially melted, hung from the edge of the stone, while clear water flowed gurglingly, occasionally splashing droplets that dampened the stone's surface.

On the riverbank, a flash of black light appeared on a large millstone-shaped rock, and Chen Mu's figure materialized.

Chen Mu stretched lazily in front of the rising sun, and a dry, cold winter breeze brushed against his face, making him shiver and feel refreshed.

This is the sixth day since he left Black Wind Pass.

Over the past few days, he has been traveling cautiously during the day and hiding in Qiandeng City to sleep at night, covering only five or six hundred li a day.

Moreover, he only used the Five Elements Escape Technique along the way, blending into the gentle breeze to conceal his figure, and carefully made his way through, so it was a peaceful journey.

"The Nine Cups of Calculation Sutra did have some effect after all."

"The calculated path, with the goal of safely returning to Feng'an City, is indeed very safe."

After admiring the scenery for a while, Chen Mu casually picked a handful of dry grass from the riverbank and skillfully began to work with the Nine Cups Calculation Sutra.

The first thing he did upon waking each morning was practice arithmetic, an essential task he added to his routine while traveling. This was to increase the amount of calculations he performed, allowing him to make more precise corrections to his route back to Feng'an City.

After a long while, Chen Mu finished the calculations and couldn't help but smile.

"Nineteen out of a hundred calculations pointed to the southeast? Yesterday it was only fourteen. This sudden increase in probability is a good thing!"

"Based on our previous experience in finding places where spirits gather, the closer the distance, the more accurate the calculation results."

"And this change undoubtedly shows that I am gradually getting closer to Feng'an City."

Just as he was secretly pleased, a wisp of white mist suddenly appeared, and in the blink of an eye, the bright sunlight was completely obscured.

The mountains and forests were instantly filled with thick fog, leaving only the stream at our feet barely visible.

A strange demon?

Doesn't the arithmetic manual show that this road is very safe?

How could a demon appear?!

Just as he was about to transform into a gentle breeze and escape, countless black dots suddenly appeared on the thick fog before his eyes.

Upon closer inspection, Chen Mu's expression changed drastically. He saw countless arms covered in long black feathers, resembling sharp arrows, which pierced through the thick fog and arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye.

The air can be contained for a hundred miles!

hum!
An invisible force spread, and the jet-black feather that had been flying through the air came to an abrupt halt, as if it had been frozen, stopping directly in front of Chen Mu.

Before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, a bright yellow flame suddenly appeared on a jet-black feather.

boom!
The dense feathers exploded simultaneously, instantly turning the entire riverbank into ablaze. The surrounding rocks and trees were blasted to pieces, and a hurricane-like shockwave spread outwards, filling the air with smoke and dust.

As the thunderous explosion subsided, the five dragon images that had gathered into a sphere at the center of the explosion slowly unfolded, and Chen Mu appeared unharmed in the middle.

He stared at the enormous figure that was faintly visible in the thick fog, his face cold.

"I was just looking for another speed-up pack for the Five Dragons Scripture, but you've delivered yourself right to my doorstep. Ha!"

In the blink of an eye, the enormous five-dragon Dharma image soared into the sky.

hold head high!
With a roar, the thick fog was instantly dispersed, revealing a strange figure as tall as four or five city towers.

At first glance, the monster looked like a giant eagle with outstretched wings, but it had bull horns on its head and a horse's face full of fangs.

It has a pair of human feet as big as a small cart, and its whole body is covered with black feathers, and under those black feathers, there are countless human heads hidden inside.

At this moment, those heads were peering through the gaps in the feathers, their lifeless black and white eyes calmly staring at Chen Mu.

Just one glance was enough to send a shiver down Chen Ju's spine.

"never mind."

"I'm in a good mood today, so I'll let you off the hook for now."

Immediately, he withdrew his Yin Spirit power, and the unique power of the Yin Wind Escape Technique rapidly filled the surrounding area.

But before he could escape into the air...

Roar!
A roar exploded.

The mist that had been slowly drifting around Chen Mu suddenly began to swirl rapidly.

He felt his body sink, and an immense pressure suddenly descended, just like the feather that had been frozen in place. Chen Mu was instantly immobilized and unable to move at all!
A dark shadow flashed overhead, and a pair of enormous wings, as tall as a seven-story tower, swooped down like two guillotines, slashing fiercely at Chen Mu's head.

To be finished!

Chen Mu's expression immediately changed.

Five Dragons Formation!

Five enormous black dragons intertwined and spun rapidly, like a siege hammer, crashing straight into the wings of the guillotine.

boom!
With a loud bang, the two wings of the Dharma Image collided, but the enormous five-dragon Dharma Image was like a water-filled ball, instantly shattered by the wings into countless fragments and mist.

not good!

Chen Mu's pupils immediately contracted to needle size.

Aura protects you!

The aura is so potent it can be contained for miles! Five ghosts have possessed him!

All sorts of secret techniques were instantly applied to him, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed into a muscular giant, his hands instinctively reaching upwards.

boom!
Smoke and dust flew everywhere, a powerful impact spread, accompanied by a series of cracking sounds, and nearby trees were immediately knocked down and broken by the impact.

Chen Mu felt a tremendous force strike him, as if he had been hit by a huge iron ingot falling from the sky, and his legs sank into the ground with a thud.

A relentless barrage of sharp forces assaulted the hands held above the head, subjecting them to constant slashing and stabbing.

If it weren't for the Qi Restriction Hundred Miles buffer and the protective spiritual light, I would probably have been torn to shreds by this power long ago!

Chen Mu gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his arms, silver threads flashing, and with a series of upward thrusts, he finally managed to stop the rapidly falling wings.

Only now did he realize that there was still a gap of several meters between the wings and his hands. But the real pain coming from his hands told Chen Mu that he had indeed touched the physical object.

It was as if an invisible armor covered with sharp spikes was covering the horse-faced harpy's body, protecting its main body while also launching powerful cutting and piercing attacks.

This is……

The power of Dharma form?!
The monster's body was actually covered with a layer of Dharma power!
In a flash, Chen Mu instantly realized that this invisible armor was the true form of the Dharma body, and its aura was like that of a celestial demon or god, combining offense and defense!
His eyes lit up instantly, and he roared as he exerted his strength.

open!

Chen Mu suddenly flipped up those enormous wings. With a burst of power, he countered, and the horse-faced harpy was thrown off balance.

As if enraged, the harpy roared repeatedly, and in a fit of rage, it flapped its wings again, slashing fiercely at Chen Mu.

But Chen Mu was not flustered at all. Instead, his eyes shone brightly as he stared intently at the aura surrounding the horse-headed eagle-bodied monster.

In that instant, insights into the monster's aura, the essence of the Five Ghosts' possession, and the true meaning of the Five Dragons' Dharma Form all surfaced in his mind, and then, as if being churned and blended together by a vortex, they quickly merged into one.

A huge surprise suddenly burst into Chen Mu's eyes, and he abruptly activated his Yin Spirit Divine Power.

The shattered Dharma image reappeared above his head, then descended from the sky, whistling as it burrowed into his body.

Five dragons united as one!

hum!
An invisible force suddenly surged around him.

At this moment, the Five Dragons Dharma Image, the Qi Restriction for a Hundred Miles, the Protective Aura, and his own defensive steel skin merged into one, and the scattered power was twisted into a single force, all transforming into a Qi that enveloped his entire body.

Feeling the immense power surging through his body like volcanic magma, Chen Mu grinned, revealing a row of sharp, white teeth, his face full of a cold smile.

He suddenly extended his hands into claws. His aura expanded and deformed, like a pair of invisible giant hands suddenly grasping and lifting the sky.

boom!
As the energy surged, the enormous wings that were about to slash down were instantly frozen in mid-air.

Feeling the sensation of holding something in his hand even though it was several meters away, Chen Mu grinned.

I was going to let you off the hook.

But you keep pressing me.

Then don't blame me for being impolite!
Haha!

Giant Spirit God!
A colossal statue appeared behind him, and his already immense power surged threefold.

He then violently swung his arms upwards, as if swinging two long ropes.

Woo!
The horse-faced monster's mountain-like body was immediately dragged and flung off the ground. As Chen Mu twisted and turned, he was involuntarily thrown over his head and crashed into the ground.

Before the monster could get up, Chen Mu suddenly jumped up, his hands forming a blade, and the power of the Five Dragons Dharma Form converged and extended, like an invisible giant blade, fiercely slashing at the head of the horse-faced, eagle-bodied monster.

The harpy's aura collided with the combined power of the five dragons, like two gears colliding in opposite directions.
Dang Dang Dang...

A series of rapid, metallic clanging sounds rang out.

"Die!"

The giant spirit god suddenly surged with increased power, just like the Five Dragons Dharma Form before. The aura on the horse-faced eagle-bodied monster's body was instantly shattered.

Chen Mu would never let such an opportunity slip by. His Yin Spirit power surged wildly, and the blade-shaped Dharma images extending from his hands became increasingly fierce.

The monster instinctively struggled and tried to dodge, but it was ultimately too late.

puff!

Blood splattered into the sky.

With a piercing scream, and without the protection of its vital energy, the horse-faced harpy's left wing was easily severed from its body.

Haha!

The combined power of the five dragons was indeed able to break through the monster's protective aura.

Chen Mu was overjoyed and wanted to press his advantage and kill the monster completely.

But the horse-faced harpy-bodied monster, like a snake whose head had been severed, rolled and twisted violently. Chen Mu was caught off guard and was suddenly thrown into the air.

Once he regained his footing, just as he was about to continue his attack, the harpy's mutilated body suddenly exploded, transforming into countless swarms of Netherworld Insects that soared into the sky.

In the blink of an eye, they dispersed and disappeared into the surrounding mountains and forests.

"I was too slow after all."

Chen Mu looked at the faint phantom of the River of Oblivion appearing in the dense forest with a look of regret.
