My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 497 Five Dragons Dharma Form
"hold head high……"

A melodious sound appeared beside my ear.

Chen Mu suddenly came to his senses and couldn't help but look at the gray wall.

Five Dragons Scripture: 5/10000/First Tier;
"You've already mastered the basics..."

Intermittent insights surfaced in his mind, and he involuntarily stretched out his right hand, circulating his Yin Spirit power.

A dim black light flashed around him, the fallen leaves on the ground moved without wind, and an unseen force descended upon him.

This power seemed alive, flowing and circulating around us. The two burdock trees in the yard, like ostriches that had spotted a ferocious beast, huddled together with their fiery red leaves, rustling as if trembling.

"The Five Dragons Dharma Form?"

Chen Mu was overjoyed.

According to the feedback from the gray wall, the Dharma form is unique to the perfected divine embryo. It can initially exert innate divine and demonic powers and emits a kind of divine and demonic aura that is endless and has the power to protect, deter, defend, and counterattack.

The Five Dragons Scripture is profound, using the power of Yin spirits to artificially create five dragon images. These images possess a protective aura and the power to absorb vital essence and souls. Aside from requiring a significant amount of external effort to cultivate and maintain, their nature and power are almost identical to those of a divine embryo.

"Why does it feel like an invisible magical artifact crafted with the power of Yin spirits?" Chen Mu wondered in surprise.

"I underestimated Old Ghost Shen back then."

That old guy was a Yin spirit at the Divine Embryo realm. After being restrained by the Yama Emperor's Decree, he didn't really put up much resistance. Chen Mu thought that a Divine Embryo Yin spirit was nothing special.

Looking back now, it's likely that the other party was seriously injured by Lan Zhang beforehand, and initially even tried to trick Chen Mu, which is why he didn't reveal much of his power.

But in reality, the power of the divine embryo is extremely strong. For example, Lan Zhang, the other party also cultivated the divine embryo, and as a result, he accomplished great things with immeasurable power.

"With the Five Dragons Dharma Forms to resist the aura of shock, I shouldn't be distracted when I encounter that long-bearded whale again." Chen Mu thought of that bright yellow eyeball, and still couldn't help but sigh with fear.

After carefully comparing and considering for a moment, Chen Mu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "Hmm... let's try to avoid running into each other again."

Although it may still be impossible to directly confront the monstrous whale-like creature, it does not diminish the profound mystery of the Five Dragons Dharma Form. The fact that it allows Yin Soldiers to possess divine embryonic power ahead of time is something that ordinary secret techniques cannot accomplish.

"What a wonderful secret technique!"

……

Two days later, in the courtyard of Ningyunfang.

Chen Mu looked at Lü Liang helplessly. The Five Dragons Scripture was good, but when it came time to pay the price, he couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

"Twenty thousand people..."

Lu Liang carefully observed Chen Mu's expression and realized that Chen Mu seemed genuinely unaware of the number of spirit seeds to be sown, which immediately made him tense.

He hesitated for a long time, but in the end he didn't dare to mention the matter of the 180,000 auxiliary soldiers. What if he quit?
"Tell me, what secret technique do you want?" Chen Mu hesitated for a long time before finally sighing helplessly. He still needed the other party to handle the Investiture of the Gods, so he couldn't refuse.

"Carry the mountain scriptures!" Lü Liang had long considered this.

"Good eye." Chen Mu raised an eyebrow. This secret technique excels at combining forces, making it extremely suitable for commanding Yin soldiers.
"Passing on the teachings is no problem, but you have to give me a thousand Yin soldiers first."

"The secret method of transmission requires the power of Yin spirits. My own power is limited, so I have to rely on the power of Yin soldiers."

"Is it using the Divine Power Extraction Technique from the Mountain-Carrying Scripture to perform a secret method?" Lü Liang suddenly realized.

The Sutra of Carrying Mountains is indeed extraordinary!
"Please come with me to the City Lord's Mansion for a few days," Lü Liang said warmly.

“No need, my little courtyard is quite nice, quiet and undisturbed.” Chen Mu shook his head and refused.

He wouldn't go near the city lord's mansion; he always felt that such high-ranking families were too complicated and troublesome.

Lü Liang looked around. This small courtyard couldn't possibly hold a thousand Yin spirits, but their gathering around the perimeter was rather conspicuous.

Chen Mu chuckled and immediately unleashed the Thousand Lanterns City, swallowing Lü Liang into it.

"Do you understand now?"

"Sir, you are truly amazing!"

"Well, it's just so-so, haha..."

……

Feng'an City, late at night, third floor, corner room.

The short, stocky Wenhan stared at the black-covered scripture, slumped listlessly on the table.

The middle-aged Zhang Er, with small eyes, was also looking at the scriptures, his hands crossed and resting on the table, his head drooping and his shoulders hunched with helplessness and confusion.

Not long after, a breeze drifted into the room through the half-open window, and a short, thin middle-aged man with high cheekbones and fierce eyes appeared.

"Speak, what happened to the Thousand Blade Camp that makes you insist on meeting me to discuss it?" the short, thin middle-aged man, Hu Mang, said coldly.

He was the secret commander of the Qingyang City Secret Service stationed in Feng'an City. He usually hid in the West Market as a butcher and never showed his face unless something major happened.

"You say it." Zhang Er raised his hand and punched Wen Han's arm.

"The young city lord mobilized a thousand Yin soldiers, and their whereabouts are unknown." Wen Han trembled and quickly spoke up.

"That's it?" Hu Mang frowned.

"He also befriended a mysterious person?" Zhang Er added immediately.

"Lu Da?" Hu Mang frowned even more deeply. "If you make me show my face with only this much information, don't blame me for being ruthless?"

He had more than just these two under his command; he had already received the same information from others.

Zhang Er hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Naru Da is not simple. He can make the Yin Soldiers quickly learn a certain secret technique to strengthen the Thousand Blade Camp."

Hu Mang's expression immediately turned solemn.

Quickly learn a secret technique? Strengthen the Thousand Blades Camp?
There's something wrong with this guy!
He had sensed something was off about the atmosphere in the Feng'an City Lord's Mansion before, and after a series of investigations, Lu Da's information came to light.

Previously, he only thought that the person personally brought into Feng'an City by Lü Liang might be extraordinary.

In retrospect, that was quite extraordinary.

"It seems we can't keep him." Hu Mang narrowed his eyes.

"We can't kill him! We can't kill him! This person can't be... killed!" Wen Han suddenly stood up, his face flushed red as he waved his hands and shouted.

But as he shouted, his voice involuntarily softened when he met Hu Mang's cold gaze, and finally, like a quail, he sat back down in his chair.

"Can't we take them in for our own use?" Zhang Er suggested, forcing himself to be brave.

Hu Mang's eyes shifted, and he stared coldly at the two of them: "You guys, is there a problem..." Zhang Dun's scalp tingled, and in a flash, he pointed to the table.

“Steward, you’d better take a look at this scripture.” Zhang Er’s face was calm and solemn, but his heart was trembling. “Once you read this book, you will understand why this person cannot be killed.”

"Really?" Hu Mang frowned, looking suspicious.

"Really!"

"Hmm... The Eastern Pole Longevity Scripture, huh? You've got quite the big talk."

half an hour...

"Who the hell are you guys, your secret spies?"

"You two bastards are betraying your own people, aren't you!"

"say!"

"Did I tell you... you can't kill..."

"I'll fucking kill both of you first!"

……

In Thousand Lantern City, ten long-dormant soul-guiding lanterns rose into the sky once more, illuminating the pitch-black cavern. A new day began for Thousand Lantern City.

Five Yin soldiers, all under the command of the general, arrived in front of Chen Mu's wooden house, respectfully clasped their hands, and then stood quietly waiting for orders, without the slightest complaint on their faces.

Since entering Thousand Lantern City, these Yin soldiers have become as docile as quails. Chen Mu has been relentlessly exploiting their Yin spiritual power, but the unruly behavior he expected has not materialized at all, which has left him quite disappointed.

He wanted to see someone do the splits, but unfortunately he didn't.

The five ghostly soldiers felt a chill for no reason, and their expressions became even more respectful.

Before arriving, the young city lord had repeatedly warned that this Mr. Lu Dalu possessed uncanny supernatural abilities. Coupled with the fact that he had only heard of the legendary Pot Heaven Technique, he knew even more that this person was extraordinary, and dared not cause any trouble.

Chen Mu curled his lip in boredom, and then began to practice the Mind-Calming Sutra as usual.

On the first day these people entered Thousand Lanterns City, he sent them the Three Paths Curse to help them collect the Weak Water and accelerate the tracing of the divine embryo's origin.

Pass on the secret method?

Of course, I'll have to wait until I finish my daily practice before I can do this job.

Feeling the surging Ruoshui River, Chen Mu grimaced in pain.

"We don't need enough people!"

The thousand people in front of them were all Yin soldiers who had cultivated ghost patterns. Compared to the five or six thousand auxiliary soldiers before, the acceleration effect of the Three Paths Curse was directly doubled!
The mere thought of the 20,000 Yin soldiers in Lü Liang's hands made him feel as if he had suffered a great loss.

"No, I have to go ask for the person again tomorrow."

"If you won't give me 20,000, how about 2,000?"

Thinking of the upcoming acceleration of the Pingxin Sutra, Chen Mu's face immediately lit up with a smile.

"That's it!"

……

Two months later, in the same room on the third floor, late at night.

Wen Han remained slumped listlessly on the table.

Zhang Er also crossed his arms and rested them on the table, his eyes vacant, his head drooping and his shoulders shrugged.

Hu Mang pursed his lips tightly, crossed his arms, and leaned back in his chair, his cold face revealing a hint of helplessness and confusion.

"Tell me, what should we do!" Hu Mang tapped the table repeatedly with his right index finger.

"Now that Qingyang City knows about Lu Da, the Secret Intelligence Bureau can't openly target Feng'an City, so they can only weaken it from the sidelines. The people who assassinated Lu Da may already be in Feng'an."

"Aren't you the commander? How come you can't even intercept a single message?" Zhang Er muttered under his breath.

"I'm not the only commander. What can I do if someone else sends out messages?" Hu Mang glared.

"Should we tip off Lu Da in advance?" Wen Han cautiously suggested.

"You want to try out the Secret Service's methods for dealing with traitors?" Hu Mang rolled his eyes in exasperation as he looked at this simpleton.
If it weren't for that bastard, I wouldn't be in this dilemma.

He hadn't expected the scripture to be so malevolent; just reading it once planted a seed of evil thoughts within him. Rationally, he knew Lu Da was a stranger, yet he felt a deep-seated desire to protect him.

But the other party is from Feng'an City, and they're at odds with Qingyang City, which is behind him. If he openly saves them, how will he survive?

"How about we strike before they have to hide?" Zhang Er cautiously suggested.

“But even if we kill the attackers from the shadows, we still won’t survive.” Wen Han scratched his head in confusion.

“No, what I mean is, we should strike Lu Da before the Dark Room does,” Zhang Er shook his head.

"Um?!"

Wen Han and Hu Mang exchanged a glance, then one of them grabbed Zhang Er's arm and slammed Zhang Er's face onto the table with a bang.

"You actually want to kill Lu Da?"

"Come, read this Longevity Scripture to me again!"

"It's broken! It's broken! My arm is going to break! Damn it, I only said to make the first move, I didn't say to kill Lu Da. We could have sent him out of Feng'an City!" Zhang Er cried out in pain, his face flushed.

"Don't you have someone under you who can teleport? Have him set up a formation in advance and move Lu Da far away from Feng'an City!"

Hu Mang was immediately interested.

Throw Lu Da a little further away and say that they have already killed him beforehand. This way, they can protect the enemy and weaken the Thousand Blades Camp at the same time. The Qingyang City Secret Intelligence Bureau will not be able to find any fault with it.

"Great idea!" Wenhan exclaimed with delight.

"Great idea, why don't you let go of me!" Zhang Er said irritably.

"Don't rush, just to be on the safe side, have him read the Eastern Pole Longevity Scripture again." Hu Mang said cautiously, "What if he didn't actually implant the spiritual seed, and was just faking it all along?"

"That makes sense!" Wen Han nodded repeatedly. "Did you hear that? Read it quickly, read it ten times!"

Zhang Er: "..."

You're such a bastard!
