My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 651 Eyeless

Four hundred miles north of Qingqiu Mountain, there is a solitary little hill.

A streak of icy blue light pierced through the clouds and crashed down to the mountaintop.

Zheng Bailian's figure appeared on a large gray-white rock at the top of the mountain.

He turned to look at the southern horizon, where the dark red blood river that had once blotted out the sky had vanished without a trace.

"Finally escaped." Zheng Bailian's rapidly beating heart calmed down.

"Too much peace isn't good either; my reaction time in the face of the enemy was actually a fraction of a second slower!"

"The extraterrestrial demons bypassed the Great Zhou Tian Star Battle Barrier and entered Haizhou directly. There must be a big problem on the extraterrestrial battlefield."

"Should I find a place to hide for a while, or should I report this news to the Thousand Machines Sect immediately?" Zheng Bailian hesitated.

Reporting late might result in punishment, but reporting early might get you drafted into combat.

Go and fight the demons face-to-face...

"Yes, my entire Hundred Illusions Sect fought valiantly against the demons, and in the end, only I survived."

"Given my serious injuries, it is understandable that I was unable to report the demon invasion in time."

"Even if the battle opportunity is delayed, at most it will only result in some questioning."

Zheng Bailian pondered for a moment and made a decision: "I will go to the Heavenly River Water Mansion to hide for a while. It will not be too late for me to reappear after the Thousand Machines Sect has quelled the chaos."

Just as he was about to use his escape technique to leave, he felt his magical power stagnate, and he couldn't even activate the rainbow light that allowed him to leap across the ground.

He suddenly looked down and discovered that, without his knowledge, a blood-red lake had appeared beneath his feet.

The crystal-clear blood, thin as paper, floated quietly in mid-air. He could even see the gray-white boulder below through the blood.

Zheng Bailian stared blankly at the reflection on the blood-red water, only to find that his pupils had already turned blood red!

……

The top of Qingqiu Mountain.

Swish!

Chen Mu activated his Five Elements Escape Technique, his entire being suddenly merged into the breeze, and vanished in the blink of an eye.

The black ribbons that had been binding Chen Mu's shadow suddenly shot out like lightning, traversing several miles in a flash, closely chasing after Chen Mu.

In the blink of an eye, the dark figure had left Yang Fuluhan and the others far behind on the mountaintop.

A moment later, on the eastern side of Qingqiu Mountain, deep in the Qiuyun Valley, in a peach grove.

Countless dark shadows, like long snakes, shot in from all directions, suddenly converging together to form a pool of shadow resembling black oil.

Swish!

Suddenly, a series of constantly rotating eyeballs appeared on the dark figure.

"Want to run?"

"No way!" The blind boy's eyes widened.

The dark shadows wriggled, and the entire mass of shadows transformed into seven plumes of black smoke, which then swirled and disappeared into the dark rocks.

The next moment.

puff!

It was as if he had jumped hard onto a trampoline, and just as he had disappeared into the ground, he was suddenly bounced into the air.

"I still don't believe it!"

The eyeless creature transformed back into a black shadow, its large and small eyes wide open in anger.

Several thin, cone-shaped black blades shot into the sky, swiftly bending and turning around in mid-air before hurtling fiercely towards the ground.

clang clang...

Sparks flew as tough, demonic stones bounced around.

After a series of fierce thrusts, a small crater, about half a person deep, appeared on the ground.

Eyeless: "..."

What the hell is this place? It's impossible to enter by magic or by force.

How on earth did that guy manage to burrow underground like that?!

He hammered at the ground dozens more times, but only managed to deepen the small pit by half a meter.

Moreover, as soon as he stops attacking, the crater will immediately recover and fill in at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The duck that was almost in my grasp just flew away like that?!

Ah ah ah ah ah……

The blind boy roared, his large and small eyes darting around furiously.

Countless dark, sharp blades erupted, clanging and slamming as they stabbed fiercely at the Imprisoned Valley.

……

Thousands of miles underground in Qingqiu Mountain, in a wide underground karst cave, a fluorescent bath lantern floats in mid-air.

Chen Mu stood motionless on the rocks of the underground river, his whole body tense.

He layered on the protective aura of the Heavenly Demon Armor and the Five Dragons Qi Five Thunder Spell, secret techniques that could serve as defenses.

With the Nine Lives Tribulation Technique activated at full power, over two hundred Peach Gods were densely packed and adhered to every part of his body.

He even deliberately used a twist of fate to refine a large amount of cold white mist, just to stimulate the Heavenly Demon Body at the right time, so that the connection between the Heavenly Demon Spirit Seed's energy could be temporarily tightened, so that he could more quickly share the tribulation of being struck by five thunderbolts.

"Hiding in the secret realm inside the mountain doesn't count as disobeying the contract and edict, so hiding underground in the mountains shouldn't count as disobeying the order either, right?" Chen Mu muttered anxiously to himself.

Time passed slowly, accompanied by the gurgling sound of water inside the underground cave.

Fifteen minutes felt like an eternity to Chen Mu.

After waiting for a while longer and realizing that no lightning had struck, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"You made the right bet."

After removing the mischievous little wooden figure stuck to his forehead and putting away all the Peach Gods that had almost buried him, Chen Mu activated his Listening Divine Power and began to probe the cave inch by inch.

Only after confirming that apart from a few faint creatures in the underground river, he was the only living person in the entire underground cavern did he completely relax.

"The demonic energy stone is ever-changing, capable of blocking the escape techniques of Qi cultivators, and it can indeed also block demons from entering."

"At least we've shaken off that eerie shadowy pursuer," Chen Mu thought to himself with a sigh. Blue Seal, Shadow, Blood Nerve.

Over the years, he never expected to encounter these people and things from his memories again.

The Underworld, the Hundred Intent Heaven, the Outer Heaven of the Netherworld, and the Shadow Cave Heaven mentioned in the shadowy figure's few words.

Various fragmented pieces of information flooded his mind, causing his thoughts to become chaotic.

Moreover, he had only heard of demons causing trouble in the heavens before, but had never heard of demons invading the earth.

I wonder what huge changes have happened somewhere.

"Fortunately, there are large areas of demonic energy stones that provide shelter." Chen Mu looked up at the top of the underground river cave.

"As long as I stay hidden underground in Qingqiu Mountain, I don't have to worry about demons attacking."

"Once I hold out until the Thousand Machines Sect launches its counterattack, I will be able to escape safely." Chen Mu felt relieved.

But before his relaxed expression could fully unfold, a series of cold, sinister voices suddenly exploded in his ears.

"You really think you can escape my shadow so easily?"

hum!

A large, dark shadow spread rapidly along the rocky cave wall, and in the blink of an eye, it enveloped the entire underground cave.

Swish!

Countless eyes, large and small, suddenly appeared in the sky and on the ground.

They all turned around, staring calmly at Chen Mu, their eyes cold and devoid of any warmth.

Chen Mu felt as if his entire body was frozen in place by countless tiny needles, and he dared not move.

This shadowy monster can actually break through the demonic energy stone?!

To be finished!

"He has no bloodline of my clan, yet he can control the Shadow Cave. He must have some skill."

"It's a pity you ran into me." The blind boy's words were full of indifference.

"If I eat you, perhaps I can go and cause trouble for Lan Zhang." Countless eyes slowly rolled around, his voice tinged with hesitation, as he began to consider his next course of action.

The shadows that enveloped the cave began to shrink rapidly toward the center.

This nonchalant attitude sent a chill down Chen Mu's spine.

His magical power and divine strength surged forth immediately, and layers of armor appeared with a roar.

"It's useless." The blind boy's gaze was once again drawn to the mysterious light and shadow, but his voice remained indifferent.

"Now that they have mastered the Shadow Cave, they will inevitably be defeated by me."

"Once I break your Shadow Eyes, I can then take advantage of the situation to completely seize your essence and spirit."

"Give up the struggle and actively become one with me. I'll feel more relaxed, and you'll feel more comfortable too."

“Look around at all these divine eyes; they are all your predecessors.”

"If the fusion goes smoothly, perhaps I will leave you with a trace of your memories, so that you can leave a mark on the world." The Blind Child chuckled, his tone a mix of pleasure and teasing.

Chen Mu looked at those big and small eyes blinking, and his whole body was covered in goosebumps.

He knew nothing of the Shadow Cave or Shadow Eyes.

Possessing both of these qualities, one's strength must be considerable. Yet, even such a powerful individual was completely devoured and merged by the dark figure before them.

But now he has to face this shadowy monster head-on?

Chen Mu felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, his body and mind chilled to the bone.

He listened intently as his supernatural powers activated, and the shadowy figures stretched endlessly, completely enveloping him within them.

"Then we have no choice but to fight to the death!" Chen Mu's eyes hardened.

Giant Spirit God!

Heavenly Demon Armor!

Candle Dragon Transformation!

He instantly drained the power of the evil spirits and monsters within the Five Ghosts Bag.

boom!

A black and gray hurricane suddenly shot up into the sky from behind him, and a dragon as tall as a ten-story building, with red eyes and green pupils, riding the yin wind and controlling ghost fire, suddenly appeared.

hold head high!

A roar.

The image of the Candle Dragon suddenly soared into the sky.

Boo!

Just like puncturing an inflated balloon, the dark shadows that were about to surround Chen Mu suddenly shattered and exploded.

The eyes on those scattered black shadows froze in shock, their vision filled with bewilderment.

How can it be?

Chen Mu looked up in astonishment as well.

The Candle Dragon's Dharma Body, however, was like a mad dog without reins, riding the yin wind as it soared and spun in mid-air with a rumbling sound. Like a gluttonous snake, it devoured the fragments of the black shadow one by one.

Didn't you say you were going to eat me?

Why does it feel like it's reversed?!

It took Chen Mu several breaths to fully come to his senses.

He narrowed his eyes as he watched the black shadow scattering in mid-air, only to be bounced back by the heavy demonic energy stones.

"What did you just say?"

"Give up the struggle, and willingly become one with me. I'll feel more at ease, and you'll feel more comfortable too?"

"Ah, you're right!"

Chen Mu grinned, revealing his fine, white teeth.

"Why don't you willingly throw yourself into the mouth of my Candle Dragon Dharma Body?" He smirked, his smile chilling.

"If not..."

"Then don't blame me for letting it tear you to shreds!"
