My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 715 Huangquan Sect

That day, on the second floor of Shangpinju.

Di Xing sat opposite him at the square table by the window, looking hesitant.

Chen Mu glanced at him and refused before he could speak: "Don't even think about bringing any more demons here, or I'll deal with you first."

Di Xing has mentioned this matter more than once in the past period of time.

If it weren't for encountering that life-draining, monstrous demon, Chen Mu might have agreed.

But let's forget about it for now.

He still doesn't understand what that strange and eerie thing is. What if he encounters something even more bizarre?
"Do you know where there are Qi Refiners?" Chen Mu ignored Di Xing's dilemma and looked at Yun Shan and Di Xing, asking about something else.

This was his main purpose in coming to see the two of them.

Over the past few days, the transformation of Dao Foundation has gradually come to an end. Chen Mu has also enjoyed a long period of peaceful and leisurely life.

Now he is preparing to set off to find the next generation of Qi cultivators.

"Sir, do you intend to use a Qi Refining demon as a stake to bury underground and build a Daoist temple?" Di Xing asked with slight doubt, then suddenly realized.

“Actually, you don’t need to go through all this trouble. As long as you come back to the Dragon Locking Academy with me, with your methods of suppressing evil spirits, you can use as much incense and spiritual energy as you want.” He said with great pleasure.

Chen Mu rolled his eyes as he listened.

You want me, a Qi Refiner, to go to the Dragon Locking Academy?
This is no way to court death.

"Qi Refining Demon"? I am the Qi Refining Demon you're talking about! Show me some respect!

"If you mention anything about demons or monsters again, I'll bury you underground!" Chen Mu stared at Di Xing expressionlessly.

Di Xing felt a chill run down his spine and immediately dared not speak again.

He felt that if he continued to persuade them, the other person would really bury him in the ground.

“My lord, the Great Hong Kingdom has been established for over 150 years. As early as its founding, Qi cultivators were already almost extinct.” Yunshan glanced at the clueless Di Xing and took over the conversation.

Right.

The City God's Taoist temple requires Qi cultivators to act as meridian points; if such a person is discovered, they will be arrested.

Furthermore, the Great Flood was covered by the City God system, and the earth's spiritual energy was thin, so there was no longer any soil for Qi cultivators to survive.

Chen Mu nodded, understanding dawning on his mind.

“If you want to find Qi Refiners, you’ll probably have to go to the Great Zhou.” Yunshan continued, “The Great Zhou borders the Henglian Mountains of Yizhou and has been fighting against the Qi Refiners of the Yellow Spring Sect in those mountains for many years. Perhaps you can capture some Qi Refiners.”

Yizhou, the Yellow Springs Sect?

Chen Mu's eyes lit up.

The Yellow Springs General Principles that I cultivated when I refined my divine aperture back then were actually the secret methods of the Yellow Springs Sect.

After mastering this method, his magical power became exceptionally strong.

Therefore, each time he reverses the River Chariot, he can obtain nine streams of innate Qi, far exceeding ordinary secret methods of condensing the Qi.

The fact that he was able to establish a foundation for the Dao in just five or six years is largely due to the Yellow Springs General Principles.

"It's fate."

"Next, we'll go to Henglian Mountain."

……

Cloudy and misty mountain, beside a pool on the mountainside.

As usual, Chen Mu reversed the flow of qi and practiced nine innate qi techniques.

Now that he has mastered the Dao Foundation, the Jade Seed no longer needs the innate Qi.

However, innate qi itself is a special kind of vital energy that is like a panacea, containing lively innate vitality, which has other wonderful uses besides reshaping jade.

In the blink of an eye, Chen Mu placed seven of the threads into his brow.

puff!
As if an accelerant had been poured in, the Seven Emotions Flames surrounding the Yin Spirit Embryo instantly intensified.

"The essence of the Cloud Mirage Heavenly Demon Body is similar to that of the Yin Spirit. It cultivates according to the normal system of the Yin Netherworld, and each advancement takes decades or even hundreds of years."

"With the nourishment of innate qi, it should speed things up considerably."

"I don't know how much faster, as long as it works."

"After all, these innate talents have nothing better to do than sit around doing nothing," Chen Mu chuckled and shrugged.

His Dao foundation was initially established, undergoing a complete transformation, allowing him to absorb celestial energy to continuously replenish his magical power. Refining his innate Qi two or three times a day was effortless for him, perfectly suited to nourish his celestial demon body.

Then he sent the remaining two streams of primordial energy into a corner of the Five Ghosts Bag. There stood seven small, black gourds, each about the height of a calf, on a wooden frame.

As the innate energy was introduced, the seven gourds vibrated simultaneously and expanded visibly.

"I wonder if Lu Kushang and the others will pop out from these seven gourds," Chen Mu said with great curiosity.

These seven gourds were transformed from the seven brothers of Wushan and have been with him for several years.

He knew before that innate energy could accelerate its growth, but at that time he was busy reshaping the jade seed and had no extra innate energy.

Now that there was no shortage of innate energy, Chen Mu thought of these seven gourds.

I didn't have high hopes; I was simply curious about what the Seven Souls Dao Weapon looked like.

After observing with great interest for a while, Chen Mu looked up at the bottomless pool.

In the unseen realm of ordinary people, a large amount of white, misty incense-like vital energy is descending from the sky.

Countless black smoke-like ghostly creatures wandered and roamed within the waterfall of incense and vital energy.

"Eat up, eat up, or you won't get any more." These offerings and vital energy all come from Zhang'an County, and he will be leaving soon; the distance is too far for him to continue receiving them.

Chen Mu planned to return the Ghost God Token to Yunshan before leaving, but before that, he naturally needed to store and absorb it extensively.

Even if you don't need it now, it's good to save it to raise ghosts.

Moreover, they can also be used to trigger the Gates of Hell.

……

Having made up his mind to leave, Chen Mu didn't linger for long.

Two days later he set off, heading southwest along the edge of the Cloud and Mist Mountains.

He didn't walk by himself, but pulled Di Xing along with him.

Chen Mu was unfamiliar with Da Hong and the area, and traveling alone, he inevitably had to ask around for directions.

As a Qi cultivator, he would be easily discovered if he showed his face too much in the mortal world where the Underworld God Transformation was prevalent.

Although he wasn't afraid, being discovered would always be a problem.

Di Xing was different.

The other party was an inspector from the Lock Dragon Academy, who frequently traveled the country and was already familiar with the routes to various counties and prefectures in the Great Hong Dynasty. Even if he wasn't, having him ask for directions wouldn't cause too much trouble.

Moreover, Di Xing, who came from the Lock Dragon Academy, was familiar with the operating mechanism of the City God's Taoist temple. With his guidance, they could find the edge of the City God's Taoist temple's influence.

By traveling through these places, he could further conceal his identity as a Qi Refiner and reduce the probability of being discovered by the Dragon Locking Academy.

……

Chen Mudi and Xing deliberately traveled to the outskirts of towns.

They weren't in a hurry to travel, and each day they would only travel two or three hundred li at most.

Chen Mu had prepared everything he needed for food and drink, so even in the desolate wilderness, he was quite comfortable.

After traveling slowly for half a month, a huge mountain that stretched across the horizon appeared, resembling a giant dragon lying horizontally.

"Ahead lies Fulong Ridge, and beyond that lies the Great Zhou Dynasty." Di Xing pointed into the distance and said, "I am from the Great Hong Locking Dragon Academy, and it would be easy for the Great Zhou Locking Dragon Academy to discover me if I approach the border. From here on out, you'll have to walk the rest of the way yourself."

Chen Mu nodded slightly: "Then let's part ways here."

Upon hearing this, Di Xing's expression immediately became hesitant.

Chen Mu rolled his eyes at the sight of that hesitant expression.

Do you want me to deal with the strange demons within the Great Flood territory again?

This guy is really stubborn.

Before Di Xing could speak, he immediately used the Yin Wind Escape technique and disappeared into the horizon.

I hate it when people don't listen to advice!

If it weren't for the fact that this guy had worked so hard to lead the way, I would definitely have given him a hard time!

……

After a while.

The highest peak of Fulong Ridge.

As Chen Mu enjoyed the cool breeze and gazed at the endless rolling mountains in the distance, he felt incredibly happy.

“In remote mountains where few people venture, you can always find some beautiful scenery. Unfortunately, even if ordinary people know about it, they probably will never be able to see it.”

"If I hadn't cultivated for many years and gained great power, even the lowest point of Fulong Ridge would be an insurmountable mountain for me, let alone standing on the summit overlooking the surrounding mountains."

Chen Mu chuckled, and for a moment even had the idea of ​​staying here for a few days.

He owns several houses in Qiandeng City and has no worries about food and drink. Whether he wants to stay or leave is entirely up to him.

"Forget it, let's go to Henglian Mountain as soon as possible."

The Great Zhou is, after all, the territory of the Underworld God Transformation Warriors. Staying too long is risky. Leaving quietly is the best course of action.

Just as he was about to use his Rainbow Light to escape, a calm voice suddenly rang in Chen Mu's ear.

"You want to go to Henglian Mountain?"

who? !

He suddenly turned his head.

Then, a crack appeared in the void, like a canvas, and a square-faced middle-aged man in a black robe walked out from it, expressionless.

Through the crack, a desolate, gray-white mountain range came into Chen Mu's view, causing his pupils to dilate violently.

The Spirit Void Grotto-Heaven?!
This guy has mastered the Twelve Transformations of the Underworld God, the Heavenly Transformation?!
How could such a master suddenly appear?
"Gongsun Sheng? I've been waiting for you for so long."

"I heard you can suppress evil spirits, causing them to hide in the underworld and disappear beforehand?"

"Good skills. Come with me. The Great Zhou Dragon Locking Academy needs someone like you." The middle-aged man spoke words of praise, but his face was full of indifference and coldness.

Chen Mu tensed up.

Gongsun Sheng was a pseudonym he always used to deceive others. Within Kangzhou, he had only told Yunshan and Di Xing about it.

Who betrayed my information?!

Has the Demonic Seed lost its effectiveness?!

Damn it!
Chen Mu's heart sank, and he immediately narrowed his eyes.
