My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 368 Back to the Mountain
On Eagle's Sorrow Cliff.

The gray clouds in the sky had completely burst into flames, resembling a long, eerie green carpet of fire.

Waves of fiery arrows rained down relentlessly.

"Wei Donglai!" A furious roar echoed across the sky.

Elder Hu?
Chen Mu was overjoyed and immediately turned to look.

A streak of blue and white light rose from Eagle's Sorrow Cliff and hovered in mid-air.

He then pushed his hands hard into the air and shouted loudly.

Great Luo Transformation Hand!
hum!
Two large, palm-shaped holes suddenly appeared in the cloud of flames.

Near Eagle's Sorrow Cliff, the overwhelming barrage of fiery arrows, which had been swept away by the fiery clouds, was cleared away with a single palm strike!
A burst of cheers erupted from Eagle's Sorrow Cliff.

Good job!
Chen Mu couldn't help but feel excited.

Two more hits, kill them!

As if responding to the wishes of the people, Elder Hu then rose rapidly in rank.

He pushed his palms hard against the fiery clouds again.

Two enormous palm prints suddenly appeared on the fiery cloud.

He suddenly exerted his strength and pushed the fire cloud away from Eagle's Sorrow Cliff!
Chen Mu's eyes lit up as he looked at it.

This is the immense power of a master who has mastered the art of condensing energy!

Chen Mu was no longer in a hurry. After dealing with the two strong men of different heights, he plopped down on a nearby rock and watched the battle in the distance.

He came all the way from Daliang, and wherever he went, that place was doomed.

"But it's not my fault," Chen Mu said, feeling wronged.

It seemed like the game was over, but unexpectedly Elder Hu managed to turn the tide.

"Finally, I don't have to run around anymore."

The reason those territories fell was because the people in charge were too weak.

Look at Elder Hu, he's amazing!

Chen Mu was secretly pleased.

Then he saw the fiery clouds on the horizon change shape and quickly solidify into a huge, withered human face.

The skull suddenly opened its mouth, its upper and lower jaws opening to an astonishing degree.

Its huge, dark mouth even takes up most of its entire face!

Roar!
An invisible force suddenly erupted.

boom!
Elder Hu was like a tennis ball that had been hit and sent flying. Suddenly, a white wave of energy exploded around him, and he was slammed into the ground and disappeared in a flash.

Chen Mu: “…”

You should hold on a little longer, you bastard!
We still have to run.

He reluctantly got up, and black smoke and spiritual light rose from his body.

With a leap, it burrowed underground and quickly disappeared, fleeing.

……

hold head high……

A terrifying roar suddenly rang in my ears.

Chen Mu, who was already having trouble sleeping, immediately opened his eyes.

What comes into view is a basement space the size of a bedroom.

Several walnut-sized jade spheres are embedded in the corner, with fluorescent algae inside flickering on and off.

Staring at the brownish-yellow mud walls and smelling the faint earthy scent, Chen Mu realized that he had already traveled more than a hundred miles away from Eagle's Sorrow Cliff.

Hearing the sounds of birdsong and beast roars brought by the Listening Technique, Chen Mu took a deep breath and fully woke up.

"We can't go back to Eagle's Sorrow Cliff."

I took one last look before leaving yesterday. The whole mountain was on fire, but strangely, there was no thick smoke.

Elder Hu... let's not talk about him!
What can you expect from someone who can be killed in a yawn?

"We need to get back to Yuquan Mountain as soon as possible." That's the base camp of Jilong Daobieyuan, and it's safe there.

After stuffing a piece of dried meat into his mouth and chewing it, Chen Mu took out the mustard seed talismans of the two men, one tall and one short, and started fiddling with them.

He only had eight or nine hundred pieces of white jade, but quite a few bottles and jars, yet he didn't dare open them.

"Tsk... I'm afraid they're all 'Dongling specialties'." Chen Mu shook his head.

The local cultivators of Dongling are skilled in using poison, and what's in the bottle is probably something similar.

He gathered them up a little to the side, then ignored them and buried them on the spot before leaving.

Instead, he specifically picked out a piece of animal hide to examine closely.

"Secrets of Embroidery Techniques?"

After a long while, Chen Mu regretfully put away the scroll.

“What a pity…”

He also wanted to learn the short man's secret hiding techniques.

"Without the corresponding demonic beast essence, even with the secret technique, I can't master it," Chen Mu shook his head.

The unorthodox methods of cultivating the Heavenly Demon Reincarnation Technique do not involve condensing the primordial spirit jade seed, but instead focus on training the body's acupoints and meridians.

The internal magical power was raging, making it difficult to condense stable secret talismans. Thus, the Embroidery Manual, a method of practicing secret techniques involving tattooing on the body, came into being.

The secret technique requires sealing the essence of a demon beast within the body, nurturing and strengthening it, and ultimately unleashing the demon beast's innate supernatural powers, allowing one to master the secret methods of the demon beast's bloodline.

"Transplanting demonic beast techniques into a human body?"

"I've learned something new..."

Although the methods were crude, barbaric, and even somewhat cruel and bloody.

But if one can truly cultivate a great supernatural power, that would be truly remarkable.

Just like those two people from yesterday.

Both the secret method that buried him underground and the supernatural power of concealment were extremely powerful.

"I don't want to think about it anymore, let's hurry back to Yuquan Mountain."

He dared not fly; last night, as he stealthily made his way there, the Di Ting Fa (a magical artifact) discovered several ambushes. He could only slowly make his way underground towards Jade Spring Mountain.

"Turning the earth into steel is not a technique for moving on the ground."

"It's okay for digging tunnels, but it's a bit slow for underground movement."

……

Chen Mu heard about Eagle's Sorrow Cliff again ten days later.

Yuquan Mountain, Yuquanfang, the backyard of Shanghuan's Baiwu Pavilion.

"Not even one in a hundred survived? The casualties were so heavy?" Although he had expected it, Chen Mu still couldn't help but feel lingering fear when he heard about the tragic scene at Yuquan Mountain.

"It's even worse than this. I heard the entire mountain was burned down to its bare state, and the earth's spiritual springs are gone too." Shang Huan sighed.

"Xiao Mu, you're incredibly lucky to have come back safe and sound!" Old Hao exclaimed with admiration.

"Luckily, I practiced a few more running techniques." Chen Mu was still shaken.

If he hadn't been able to burrow underground, he wouldn't have been able to get down from Eagle's Sorrow
"Fortunately, those barbarians are finished too." Shang Huan said with a look of excitement.

"Is there movement on the mountain?" Chen Mu felt a surge of tension.

Sure enough, Dongling is about to descend into chaos again.

"The day after Eagle's Sorrow Cliff fell, all the elders on the Golden Summit mobilized," Shang Huan chuckled.

"It is said that several elders directly attacked the barbarian stronghold and killed three Qi Condensation Barbarians on the spot."

"Only one man surnamed Wei managed to escape with his life."

"The barbarians who followed the rebels were also killed and scattered by our patrol bureau."

“Apart from a group that was taken away by the Wei-surname barbarians, the other barbarians also migrated and fled.”

Chen Mu listened with a stunned expression.

The anticipated chaos in Dongling hadn't even begun when it suddenly vanished.
For a moment, he felt a sense of unreality.

"Those barbarian cultivators were too cowardly; they couldn't have held out for a few more days," said the bald-headed Jia Tian, ​​looking annoyed.

Chen Mu snapped out of his daze and glanced sideways at Jia Tian.

"What, Your Highness, are you hoping for chaos in the world?"

"Have you forgotten how you lost your throne?"

It was because of the chaos in the Great Qian Dynasty and the danger of its collapse that this little bald-headed Jia Tiancai had no choice but to abandon his throne and come to Jilongdao to escape the disaster.

“I didn’t expect the world to descend into chaos.” Jia Tian looked aggrieved. “The environment in Dongling is treacherous, and those barbarians already have a hard time living. A hasty migration inevitably resulted in a large number of deaths and injuries.”

"I just hope those cultivators can hold on for a few more days so that their lower-level cultivators and ordinary mountain people can make more preparations."

"I was in such a rush that the journey was really difficult," Jia Tian said with a sigh.

Chen Mu fell silent.

When faced with such chaos, it is always the people at the bottom who suffer.

He himself was just an unlucky guy caught in the chaos.

"Yes, if we hadn't prepared in advance, we might have lost our lives," Chen Mu couldn't help but sigh.

What surprised him even more was that Jia Tian, ​​the former prince, would care about the lives of ordinary mountain people.

Although he's a bit mercenary and greedy, he's still a good person at heart.

Seeing the other person's worried face, Chen Mu couldn't help but comfort him: "Life and death are predestined, wealth and honor are determined by fate, try to take it easy."

Hearing this, Jia Tian's face grew even uglier: "But how am I supposed to repay my money?"

What do you mean?
Chen Mu was a little confused.

"After Elder Liu left, he borrowed money everywhere, hoarded goods at high prices, and even pre-ordered and bought out several suppliers." Shang Huan looked on with amusement.

"And then, hehe..."

Chen Mu's face immediately darkened.

I actually thought you were worried about the barbarians' lives, but it turns out this bald guy just cares about making less money!

Chen Mu looked at Jia Tian with a smile.

"You'll have to pay a lot of money, won't you?"

Jia Tian nodded sadly.

"Deserve it!"

Jia Tian: "..."
