My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 615 Thousand Mountains
Lianxi lay pale-faced in the rocking chair, looking utterly weak and listless.

Even though he was a Qi Condensation cultivator, losing half of his liver would still severely damage his vital energy.

“The Thousand Mountains Classic originated from the ancient Thousand Mountains Road, and its secret methods are all profound, so it naturally spread widely,” he explained.

Those secret techniques are indeed profound.

Chen Mu nodded in agreement.

When he first obtained the Five Ghosts Bag, he had just begun his cultivation. Now, more than ten years later, he has already completed half of the fourth stage of Qi Refining, the River Chariot Training, and the Five Ghosts Bag and the Five Ghosts Moving Mountains are still quite useful.

There is also the Heart-to-Heart Rope and its accompanying Heart-to-Heart Mantra.

If it weren't for using the Heart-to-Heart Mantra to cultivate the Seven Souls Dao Soldiers and cleverly extracting the core of the City God's Daoist temple, they might already be trapped and dead in the Heavenly River Realm.

"I wonder what kind of sect the Thousand Mountains Sect is. The few fragments of its scriptures that have been passed down outside are already incredibly useful."

"Its core direct descendants..."

"Don't even think about it, the secret manual is long gone." Lianxi waved her hand lazily.

"Qianshan Dao is a heretical sect. Because its methods were too evil, it was wiped out by the Chunyang Luofu and other Daoist sects in ancient times."

"The secret scriptures were destroyed long ago, with only a few fragments remaining."

"If it weren't for this, the world would never have seen the Thousand Mountains Classic."

Pity.

The Five Ghosts Bag and the Heart-Connecting Rope are indeed strange, but they are also really useful.

Chen Mu shook his head regretfully.

"Tell me about that Dragon Ball inspiration."

After accidentally entering the secret aperture between the eyebrows, it only appeared when absorbing the nourishing spirit wine; otherwise, it remained motionless inside the aperture, and the nourishing spirit spell lost its effect.

Even knowing that this uncontrollable magical artifact was a good thing, Chen Mu still couldn't help but feel worried.

“The sixth stage of cultivation in the Heavenly Demon Heretic Path is called 'Creating a Weapon',” Lian Xi said calmly. “It requires selecting the teeth, bones, or sharp horns and eyeballs of the Heavenly Demon's true body and reshaping them to transform their essence into a fundamental weapon.”

“The root essence is the embryonic body, and the reshaped spiritual core is the spiritual energy.”

"It is said that a complete root can temper the true body of a celestial demon into the true form of a celestial demon, and is an indispensable cultivation tool for celestial demon heretics."

Lianxi thought for a moment and then added, "It is said that demons and monsters also possess this kind of innate talent. Great demons spit pearls at the moon and absorb its essence. The so-called 'elixir pearl' is just a superficial appearance; the core essence is similar."

"Therefore, as long as you find a complete organ of a celestial demon or monster to use as a embryo, and combine it with the spirit of the dragon ball, there is a high probability that you can obtain a superior root weapon."

Spiritual inspiration, innate talent, and the nourishment of the true form of the celestial demon?
Now it matches up.

Recently, his Cloud Mirage Heavenly Demon Body has improved significantly, precisely because of the cold white mist that was generated by a series of unexpected events.

Chen Mu suddenly realized.

"The Dragon Pearl that Qiu Jinwu seeks is a talent cultivated by a certain lord of the Hai-character Heavenly River Water Palace," Lianxi continued.

"The original body is a pair of loach dragon eyes, which have been refined and obtained. As for its core spiritual energy..." He looked at Chen Mu, his eyes full of profound meaning.

Although he hadn't seen the real thing, Lianxi was 70% certain that the lost Dragon Pearl's essence was in the hands of the person in front of him.

"Qiu Jinwu is a genuine Qi cultivator, why would he steal the talent of a heretical demon?" Chen Mu asked, puzzled.

"Heretical cultivators need the assistance of innate talent to cultivate their true form. Similarly, cultivators need spiritual treasures to nurture their primordial spirit."

"Guess why Akio wants the Dragon Balls?" Lianxi glanced at Chen Mu with amusement, her face full of amusement.

Chen Mu's heart tightened.

"Dragon Balls can help Akigo cultivate his primordial spirit?"

“Root talent and spiritual treasure are of the same level. The dragon pearl probably only needs a little refinement to become the core aid for Qiu Jinwu to nurture his primordial spirit.”

“And now this brilliant idea has fallen into your hands… Heh!” Lianxi’s tone was full of schadenfreude.

Chen Mu: “…”

The feud between me and Akigane is now truly dead!

That's a Foundation Establishment Qi Refining cultivator; he can overturn the world with a mere wave of his hand. And now, he's going to face him...

Just thinking about the troubles ahead made Chen Mu tense up.

Just as I was racking my brains for a solution, I heard a creaking sound.

He turned his head and saw Lian Xi lying leisurely in a rocking chair, swaying back and forth.

Chen Mu stared at the other person's cheerful face, growing angrier the more he looked.

I'm living in constant fear, yet you, a prisoner, seem so carefree.

And that expression just now, it was clearly him gloating and laughing at himself.

Ever since the Nightmare Curse was planted on him, Lianxi has become increasingly audacious!
"You weren't marked with any tracking marks by Qiu Jinwu, were you?" Chen Mu squinted.

"Of course not." Lian Xi said with certainty, "If there really was a mark, Qiu Jinwu would have been able to find you through me in the Heavenly River Dharma Realm in less than three days, not even three quarters of an hour. How could you have escaped with your life?"

Chen Mu's face darkened. "Nothing?"

"No, I think it definitely is." He stared at Lian Xi with an unfriendly expression.

"What do you want to do?" Lianxi's heart tightened.

"I just wanted to reduce the risk a bit." Chen Mu's expression changed, revealing a sinister smile.

With a wave of his hand, a pile of tiny Forgotten River Stones, each the size of a melon seed or a grape, appeared before him.

These were the leftover scraps from refining the Extinction Stone, which he has now refined into smaller Extinction Stones.

He kept moving, directing the little finger-thick concentric rope to fly up.

With a thought, the Heart-Connecting Rope emitted a large number of fine black threads. They intertwined and extended, evenly wrapping around tiny fragments of the Breath-Severing Stone, and in an instant, the Heart-Connecting Rope transformed into a cable more than ten meters long and as thick as a wrist.

Whoosh!
The pitch-black cable seemed to be alive; before Lianxi could react, she was wrapped up from head to toe like a silkworm cocoon.

“These breath-sealing stones are too small and have limited coverage. Only by wrapping the whole body like this can the aura be completely concealed,” Chen Mu said with a smile.

Lianxi: "Waaaaah..."

Why not sew it inside the clothes?

You're deliberately making things difficult for me!

"What? You're happy to?" Chen Mu clapped his hands, his face beaming with delight. "I knew you wouldn't object!"

Lianxi: "Waaaaah..."

If you're so capable, then don't shut me up!
"Is it tied too loosely? Are you afraid it will let your breath out?"

"Don't worry, I'll wrap it around you a few more times, I guarantee not a breath will leak out!" Chen Mu said with a grin.

Lianxi: "..."

"Of course, this is not safe either. You'd better stay in Thousand Lanterns City."

"Don't be fooled by how dark and desolate it is inside; it's still a paradise on earth."

"With the cave separating us, even if you have tracking marks on your body, Qiu Jinwu will absolutely not be able to pursue you."

"Trust me, there's absolutely no problem!"

Not only did they tie me up like a silkworm cocoon, but now they want to lock me up in a dark room?
Where the hell are you, Akira?
Hurry up and kill this inhuman freak!
……

After sending Lianxi back to Qiandeng City, Chen Mu was happy for a while before calming down.

With a flick of his wrist, black smoke billowed out, and seven black gourds appeared before his eyes.

“Lu Ku, Shang Huan…” Chen Mu looked at the palm-sized gourd floating in mid-air and remained silent.

The scenes of how I met or became enemies with these people involuntarily surfaced in my mind.

After many years apart, he never expected to meet again in this way.

Chen Mu silently sensed the presence of the Heart-to-Heart Mantra. Soon, he discovered a faint but slowly growing, chilling life force within the gourd.

"A spirit?" Chen Mu seemed to be thinking.

The Seven Souls Dao Soldier initially intends to plant the Seven Sons United Gu in the host's body.

The Seven Sons United Gu is actually the Yinming Insect.

The Seven Souls Dao Soldiers are created using a secret technique to transform life and death, turning Yin-Yang Insects into Silver Soul Monsters. Because a living host is involved, the Dao Soldiers created are... Yin Spirits from the Underworld?!

"Clearly, the Thousand Mountains Sect had already studied the underworld and the netherworld many years ago!"

"The Seven Souls Dao Weapon Technique is clearly imitating the mechanisms of the underworld, artificially creating Yin spirits!"

Looking at the seven gourds in front of him, he pondered the possible connection between the Thousand Mountains Path and the Underworld, and his heart trembled inexplicably.

It took him a long time to come to his senses.

"Back then, Lu Ku made Shang Huan rush to Ganhe Lower Temple at all costs, was it so that I would use the Seven Souls Dao Military Technique to evade capture by the Lock Dragon Academy?"

"Tsk, now you've got what you wanted."

However... are the seven people who became spirits ghosts who gained the memories of the seven people, or are the original seven people reincarnated by the ghosts?
Chen Mu lowered his head and thought for a long time, but could only shake his head silently.

"In this world, it's already good enough to have a chance to live. What's the use of thinking too much?"

When he composed himself and looked up again at the seven small and exquisite gourds, he couldn't help but smile.

Seven little figures inexplicably appeared in his mind.

Did Qianshan Dao even study the Calabash Brothers?

Ah!
I wonder if there are still Calabash Brothers.

Chen Mu chuckled and flipped his hand to put the Seven Souls Gourd into the Five Ghosts Bag.
