My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 97 Treasure Land
Lijiang Weicheng, Yongtongfang.

The crackling sound of stir-frying vegetables filled the courtyard, and the enticing aroma spread throughout the yard.

Chen Mu hummed a little tune as he ladled a plate of flavorful cured meat from the pot.

After five months, he finally mastered the Jade-Eyed Golden Ape Form Refinement Technique.

"No wonder people in the martial arts world are so eager to get their hands on the Dragon Transformation Pill, a poison that's like drinking poison to quench thirst." Chen Mu sighed, "The Body Refining Technique is just too difficult!"

Lowering his head and lifting his shirt, Chen Mu looked at the powerful figure encircling his belly like a belt with a complex mix of satisfaction after overcoming hardships.

He glanced at it again with lingering reluctance before picking up the spatula and stirring the fine sand in another iron pot.

Peanuts are placed in sand, and the hot sand slowly and evenly introduces heat into the peanuts.

Peanuts roasted in this way are heated evenly and become incredibly fragrant and crispy.

Chen Mu stared at the shovel in his hand, lost in thought.

"Courage... invincible, huh?"

With a flick of his wrist, Chen Mu formed a knife with his fingers.

It plunged into the scalding hot sand with a soft thud.

The hands, covered by the dark aura, could clearly feel the burning heat of the fine sand.

Flip, flip, flip... flip, flip... I'm flipping as hard as I can!

When I pulled my hand out, it was white and tender!

"what!"

After roasting the peanuts, Chen Mu sat down at a low table under the wooden shed.

"From now on, we won't need a spatula to stir-fry or a grill to barbecue."

"This old man probably can't eat it."

"Obsessive-compulsive disorder about cleanliness and money!"

"It's a pity he's not here. It's been so long. I miss that old man."

Chen Mule happily popped a piece of spicy and delicious cured meat into his mouth.

He picked up the special milk tea next to him and downed it in one gulp.

"Cool!"

……

The flagship of the Jinghong Gang.

"What kind of conspiracy is Cheng Yi plotting?" Zuo Sheng asked, puzzled.

Previously, Cheng Yi would come and cause trouble every day, sometimes twice a day.

He went on a killing spree, destroyed the Jinghong Ship, and then quickly disappeared.

But for five days now, there hasn't been a single sign of anything happening.

The more this happened, the more apprehensive Zuo Sheng felt, fearing that they might suddenly pull a big surprise.

"Give up?" Jin Wuduan frowned.

"He could stay in that remote Taoist temple in Qingshan County, secretly cultivate the Armor Soul without making a fuss. With such a patient nature, would he really give it up?" Zuo Sheng hesitated.

With his sincere and powerful spirit, wielding a magical artifact, he was actually on par with his master. This truly shocked Zuo Sheng.

Jin Wuduan was also puzzled, but he couldn't help but feel relieved: "This is actually more advantageous for us."

"Once Miss Seven returns, we won't be afraid even if he reappears."

Jin Wuduan suddenly had a thought. Could this sincerity mean he was abandoning the Daoist boy and going to find the Thousand Machine Token himself?
"Quietly investigate the identities of the wandering martial artists we've recruited these past few days," Jin Wuduan suddenly said, his heart skipping a beat.

"Would Cheng Yi infiltrate the gang?" Zuo Sheng couldn't help but be surprised.

Jin Wuduan thought about it more and more and it seemed more and more likely.

Hidden within the Jinghong Gang, they would wait for an opportunity to scout out the Daoist boy's location and seize him if the chance arose.

Even if you can't grab one, you can still blend into the crowd and head north together to find the Thousand Machine Token.

"So patient!" Jin Wuduan couldn't help but admire, then turned to look at Zuo Sheng and exclaimed, "Qingshan County is truly a treasure trove."

Zuo Sheng's lips twitched. He thought of a certain cheap senior brother.

It is indeed a treasure land.

Those who come out are all ruthless!
……

"Has Lao Zhuo been giving you any trouble lately?" Jin Wuduan looked at Zuo Sheng meaningfully.

"Zhuo Rufeng's disappearance has nothing to do with me," Zuo Sheng said helplessly.

He did indeed not get along with the Zhuo family father and son.

However, it wouldn't necessarily lead to Zhuo Rufeng's death. Because the disadvantages would far outweigh the advantages.

"Yes, be more obedient lately, cultivate more, and master the Armor Soul as soon as possible, then wait for the right opportunity," Jin Wuduan said earnestly.

"We martial artists must learn self-discipline. We must never abuse force unless in a crisis. What if we encounter a tough opponent who's pretending to be weak but is actually strong?"

"You must learn to use your brain," Jin Wuduan earnestly instructed.

His disciple was exceptionally talented and worked extremely hard in his cultivation, making him perfectly capable of inheriting his family's mantle.

He's just too violent. He'll resort to violence at the slightest disagreement. It's a real headache.

But since he was ultimately his last disciple, he had no choice but to go out of his way to cover for him. Zuo Sheng: "..." What does that mean?
"Even if we really have to take action, we should be more careful."

"Because of the merit of finding the Taoist boy, Lin Que's matter is considered settled."

"Zhang Ye is a slippery fellow, but he's still somewhat useful. We went to so much trouble to promote him, so we have to put him to good use."

"As for Lao Zhuo, I'll try to mediate. At worst, I'll give him the position of gang leader."

"Anyway, he has more than one son."

Zuo Sheng: "..."

Lin Que? Zhuo Rufeng?

This has absolutely nothing to do with me!

……

After spending five days exploring the Lijiang Weicheng and sampling all sorts of local snacks and delicacies, Chen Mu reluctantly returned home and resumed his seclusion.

"It's a pity it's a small town, so the food is just so-so."

"It would be great if we could have some snacks like Lao Qi's Pie."

"Anything with the quality of the eighteen kinds of pastries from Xinyuan Teahouse would be acceptable."

Chen Mu smacked his lips and drank the milk tea in his cup.

"Let's keep practicing the Form Refinement Technique."

The Azure-Eyed Golden Ape truly lives up to its reputation as a high-level body-training technique. Its divine intent is more complete and clearer, and the area of ​​its cultivated soul is larger. However, a single belt is far inferior to a full-body transformation.

"Let's practice the Black Tiger and White Ape's Form Refinement Techniques and see if it can accelerate the accumulation of spiritual power."

He wanted to master the Armor Soul technique as soon as possible.

Jie Jia said that Jia Po could subdue Yin spirits and monsters.

Living in this world rife with evil spirits, Chen Mu always felt a lack of security. He needed to cultivate his Armor Soul as soon as possible to find peace of mind.

Chen Mu took out the White Ape Form Refining Technique from the Five Ghosts Bag and reviewed it again.

He had thought about it several times before, and he already knew the breathing changes and posture training methods by heart.

Looking at it again is just to confirm it once more.

"She really is a piece of trash." Chen Mu said with some disdain.

The breathing technique in the Yi Jin stage has only eighteen variations.

There are quite a few movements, thirty-six in total. Each one is large and sweeping, requiring considerable effort.

"That's the difference." Many of the blue-eyed golden apes use static guidance, requiring only a slight tremor of their muscles.

"The principle of transformation relies more on physical strength training." Chen Mu realized the difference between high-end and low-end physical training techniques.

Putting away his books, Chen Mu began his training.

He mastered both physical training techniques. He had a thorough understanding of regulating breathing and controlling muscles.

I got into the zone after three tries.

A flood of insights rushed into my mind.

The subtle shifts in breathing length, the techniques for reaching out and exerting force, and the leaping and bounding postures reveal the secrets of the White Ape's Form Training Technique.

After a long while, Chen Mu stopped what he was doing and brought up the gray wall.

Sure enough, a brand new entry appeared at the bottom.

White Ape Form Refinement Technique: 136/10000/Second Tier;

Chen Mu: “…”

"She really is a piece of trash."

They start practicing Yi Jin Jing right from the beginning!

Feeling my body's condition, I noticed that only the muscles in my arms were slightly warm, indicating a subtle sign of improvement.

The strength increased slightly, which meant that the explosive power of the arms was slightly enhanced.

This indicates that the muscles involved in the White Ape Form Training Technique had already been covered by the first two form training techniques.

"Tsk..."

"The idea of ​​layering armor is now off the table."

He had previously wanted to keep accumulating physical training techniques to turn himself into a monstrous muscle man.

"Indeed, there are limits to human beings."

Chen Mu shook his head: "However, even if you can't build armor, you can still build courage."

Relying on just one form-training technique, who knows how long it would take to master it.

The only problem is that the White Ape's physical training technique is a bit weak, and Chen Mu is a little worried about its lack of courage.

"If the White Ape Form Refinement Technique is like this, then what about the Black Tiger Form Refinement Technique..."

Chen Mu recalled the small, bean-sized piece of courage beneath his feet.

"I hope it's not really the three brothers who are good-for-nothings."
