My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 622 Magic Weapon

In the Dingyou year, at the Heavenly River Water Palace, in Chen Mu's small courtyard.

The two beams of light, one black and one white, resembled two cats, chasing and dancing in mid-air.

Chen Mu lay in the rocking chair, looking at the air with great interest.

A thought came to mind.

hum!

The black and white light flew together to Chen Mu, transforming into a palm-sized black moon blade and a fist-sized pale white bone ball.

"The innate Qi is indeed incredibly useful!"

Chen Mu had a big smile on his face.

Once the River Chariot is mastered, as long as the Divine Aperture is reversed, magical power can be transformed into innate Qi.

When he tested the effects of the innate Qi, he unexpectedly discovered that even the Yin Cuo Yang Cha, which had been dormant for a long time, was reacting. So he fed them a few more strands of innate Qi.

The unexpected twists and turns that had previously spiraled out of control due to the absorption of spiritual energy have now been brought back under control. They are now as responsive as an extension of one's own arm, even more agile than before.

"According to what Lianxi said, the twist of fate is probably the embryo of some celestial demon."

"After being infused with the Dragon Ball's spiritual energy, it became a magical artifact similar to a root weapon."

"Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to transform the Yin Spirit divine power into cold white mist to strengthen the Heavenly Demon body."

Chen Mu closed his eyes, and a blurry image of a night sky full of stars appeared in his mind.

Those silvery star-like dots are the scattered demonic spirit seeds.

Since he accidentally merged with the spiritual energy, as he continuously transformed the Yin Spiritual Power into cold white mist, his Heavenly Demon Body was significantly enhanced, and the connection between him and the Heavenly Demon Spirit Seed was strengthened. Then, this scene of stars in the dark night began to appear in his mind from time to time.

"It seems that the innate Qi can accelerate the fusion of the Dragon Ball's spiritual energy and the unexpected twists and turns."

Chen Mu suddenly understood.

He guessed that the two had already begun to merge, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to produce the cold white mist.

However, spontaneous integration is ultimately slow, and innate factors clearly played a catalytic role.

Not only that.

Chen Mu retrieved the unexpected secret point between his eyebrows and channeled the power of the Yin spirit into it.

buzzing...

The Yangcha bone ball stood in the center of the secret passage and slowly rotated, while the Yinchao moon blade danced around the bone ball.

The spiritual power flew between the two and vanished in the blink of an eye. Clumps of cold, white mist rapidly formed.

"The speed at which the cold, white mist is transformed has also increased significantly."

"The Dragon Ball inspiration and the twists and turns are becoming more and more closely integrated," Chen Mu couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Swish!

By a twist of fate, it appeared in mid-air. With a thought, the black and white light transformed into two beams of light that shot into the space between its brows.

“When not in use, it can be stored and nurtured within the body; when needed, it can be released with a thought. This can certainly be considered a brilliant magic weapon.”

"It's a pity it's not the legendary flying sword and leaping ball, it's barely worthy of my identity as a Qi cultivator."

"Yeah, it's just something to make do with."

"Ha ha!"

After several rounds of trickery, Chen Mu's smile grew even wider.

……

A few days later.

In the year of Dingyou, at the Heavenly River Water Palace, in the lane of Bixi.

The area encompassing the four crisscrossing streets was shrouded in an invisible aura. A deathly silence reigned within; even the domesticated wolves and exotic beasts kept at home held their heads in their paws, not daring to make the slightest sound.

One by one, the Water Palace warriors, clad in black armor, searched and explored house to house.

Akira stood expressionless on a rooftop, looking down with exceptionally cold eyes.

"Senior Qiu, there's no response from the Spirit Pearl. The Dragon Pearl's spiritual energy... it's probably already been refined." Jiao Shi's face was pale, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.

how so? !

But just when he was about to succeed, the inspiration suddenly vanished.

Damn!

Originally, if they had just found the spiritual opportunity, Qiu Jinwu would have been willing to become a Dao soldier in the Thousand Machines Sect, and his father wouldn't have had to risk his life on the outer battlefield.

But now... now Qiu Jinwu also has no choice but to go to the Thousand Machine Sect, after all, he is bound by the contract.

But the other party's wish wasn't fulfilled, and if any further complications arise, after all...

"I've heard that there's a kind of substitution technique that can avoid the backlash of the contract," Qiu Jinwu said softly.

Trouble!

Jiao Shi's heart skipped a beat.

……

Outside the Hundred Herbs Pavilion on Suanni Street, a group of black-armored warriors strode past with a clanging sound. "What's going on?"

Chen Mu, who was inspecting the white jade under Song Jiang's stern face, couldn't help but turn his head and look curiously at the gaunt old man behind the counter in the direction where the strongman had disappeared.

"It's all because of that strange disease called Huangliang," Manager Li complained.

"That strange disease that makes people fall into a deep sleep and never wake up? Wasn't it already under control in Bixi Street?" Chen Mu asked, puzzled.

"If only we could really control it," Manager Li sighed.

"I heard that the Water Mansion sent a master to search every inch of Bixi Alley a while ago, but he found nothing."

"Several shopkeepers on Suanni Street have already been infected and are now lying at home in a coma."

"The Water Mansion Warriors even claimed they were under some kind of evil curse, haha, what a load of rubbish!" Manager Li said indignantly.

"It must have been the strongman who took a bribe and secretly let people escape from Bixi Alley, which led to the emergence of the strange Yellow Millet Disease."

"I reckon those people wanted to pawn their goods and run away. Old Yang of Tianshui Pavilion, Xiao Zhou of Baibaolou and others are always bold and ruthless. Driven by greed, they contacted those people in private and that's how they fell into a coma."

Old Yang of Tianshui Pavilion? Little Zhou of Baibaolou?

Among the straw figures used in curses and spells in the house, it seems there are these two...

"How many shopkeepers were unlucky in total?" Chen Mu asked.

"I think it was five or six, I can't quite remember," the skinny shopkeeper replied casually.

Chen Mu's lips twitched.

Yes, that's confirmed. The Water Palace Warrior really didn't lie to anyone.

Those shopkeepers who fell into a coma were indeed under some kind of evil spell.

But it's not my fault, I was just defending myself!

He was filled with helplessness.

Over the past six months, he has sold 180 Tongxi Baizhang Pills every ten days to half a month, earning nearly 30,000 pieces of white jade.

Money can be a powerful motivator, and those warehouse managers were always trying to secretly track him down, which was clearly a detrimental move for them!

So Chen Mu made a straw doll with a curse for each of these shopkeepers.

Unexpectedly, they had already taken down six shopkeepers in succession.

Tsk!

"Brother Song, you must be careful when you travel." Manager Li said with sincere concern.

"Manager Li, you must also be careful," Chen Mu sincerely advised.

The situation has already caused widespread panic, and he really doesn't want another cursed straw doll in his home.

……

half a month later.

Inside the Bixi Alley of the Tianhe Water Mansion in the Dingyou year.

"As you can see, this kind of substitution technique can indeed share the damage suffered by the main body, but if you want to avoid the Five Thunderbolts of the Pure Yang Dao Ancestor, even the most wonderful substitution technique is useless." Jiao Shi couldn't see Qiu Jinwu's sincere explanation.

"The Pure Yang Dao Ancestor resides high above the heavens, an existence that has existed for countless millennia. Ordinary people simply cannot withstand the Dao Ancestor's heavenly punishment."

"The Dragon Ball Spiritual Machine is indeed a treasure, but it's not worth risking our lives to tamper with the Dao Soldier Contract Book."

"It can only be that the holder of the spirit energy found a suitable container and successfully refined the spirit energy into it, which is why we lost track of the spirit energy."

Qiu Jinwu held a jade tablet, expressionlessly flipping through the secret techniques inside, before finally letting out a long sigh.

He sold the entire Goose and Sheep Road, only to get a bunch of Dragon Ball embryos in return.

That thing was indeed precious, but it offered no help whatsoever to one's spiritual path.

Now, he has to face the reality that the Dragon Ball spirit has completely disappeared.

"Senior Qiu, you don't need to be discouraged." Jiao Shi glanced at the other person carefully and tentatively offered some words of comfort.

"The battlefield outside the heavens is certainly dangerous, but it is also full of opportunities."

"Leaving aside the natural talents of various demons, as long as you accumulate enough Dao power, you can exchange them for spiritual treasures and secret techniques from the Thousand Machines Sect."

"The root of external paths is ultimately for cultivating the true form of the Heavenly Demon, and what it generates is mostly Xuan Yin Qi."

"The growth of the primordial spirit requires pure yang energy. Even if you obtain the complete dragon pearl, you will still have to work hard to modify and refine it, which is far less suitable for the primordial spirit than the secret techniques of spiritual treasures."

"The loss of the Dragon Ball's spiritual power this time is both a curse and a blessing. It will certainly be difficult in the short term, but it may allow your primordial spirit to go further and more steadily on its path."

Akira remained expressionless, but inwardly he couldn't help but sigh helplessly.

When he left the Heavenly River Dharma Realm, he already had a premonition that he had lost his spiritual essence. His pursuit of Haizhou was more out of unwillingness to give up.

Now I've simply given up completely.

It seems that my path to the primordial spirit will ultimately lead me to the Thousand Machines Sect.

Akira took a deep breath and made up his mind.
