I am grinding experience in another world - Chapter 748 - 736: Where to Go from Here
Deep underground.
Looking at the silver sphere-like vein acupoint before him and thinking of the high-grade nourishing heart pill about to be obtained, Bai Shou’s heart burned with excitement.
Taking a deep breath, he raised his hand and threw out the crimson ghost embroidery ball.
The ribbons around the ball danced in mid-air, tracing an arc before falling towards the towering sphere.
But in the next moment.
A sudden flash of black and white light appeared, striking the ghost embroidery ball.
The trajectory of the ghost embroidery ball remained unchanged as it collided with the silver sphere-like vein acupoint, but upon contact, it abruptly shattered into a handful of crimson powder.
Bai Shou’s eager expression instantly froze.
He abruptly turned, glaring angrily towards the source of the black and white light.
Upon seeing the person clearly, Bai Shou’s face immediately flushed.
“Chen Mu!” A voice full of anger squeezed from between clenched teeth.
“This is the Forbidden Law Sphere personally bestowed by the Capital Institute, it can greatly enhance the Mountain Protection Magical Barrier of Tangshan Institute, and you dare to destroy it…” His face was full of fury.
“You treacherous scoundrel colluding with members of the Yin Ghost Sect!”
“I guessed right, you are a spy from Kangzhou Lock Dragon Institute!” He accused Chen Mu with certainty.
“Indeed, that Bai Xiaoqing was an agent from the Great Zhou Lock Dragon Institute.”
“You were recommended by him, how could you not be affiliated with the Yin Ghost Sect.” He muttered to himself in frustration.
A series of accusations left Chen Mu bewildered.
No, isn’t your blame game a bit too smooth?
Obviously, you colluded with Lock Dragon Institute to harm me, how can you slander me as a spy from Kangzhou Lock Dragon Institute?!
Shameless!
Chen Mu suddenly waved his hand.
Yin Mistaken Yang!
A flash of black and white light sliced through the air like lightning, pointing straight at Bai Shou.
Whoosh!
Behind Bai Shou, a white python’s phantom appeared howling at the sky; he resembled a coiled and poised venomous snake full of energy, suddenly springing out.
The Yin Yang Qi dodged him narrowly, only grazing his clothes and taking away a piece of fabric.
“You were exposed by me, and now outraged, you want to kill and silence me?” Bai Shou revealed himself not far away, speaking with a face full of grief as if wronged by heaven.
“Too bad you underestimate my Heavenly Snake True Form, you want to silence me, no way!” He said angrily.
What nonsense outraged.
Are you not done smearing yet?
Chen Mu’s forehead veins were pulsating.
“I originally didn’t want to use it, but unfortunately you betrayed the trust of Luodu Academy and me.” Bai Shou pulled out a bronze token with a flip of his hand.
“The Contractual Decree is here, I advise you not to act rashly.” He coldly sneered and scolded.
“I recommended you to join Holy Heart Institute, now this mistake is mine to correct.” Bai Shou’s face was full of righteous conviction.
Then his expression softened, looking sad and heartbroken: “We are acquainted after all, I won’t make it difficult for you, you… you should commit suicide.”
Chen Mu laughed angrily.
You’re addicted to acting, aren’t you!
Candle Dragon Transformation!
In the black cave, countless black clouds suddenly appeared.
The Ghosts wandering all over Tangshan were summoned and gathered, twisting and combining to form a fierce dragon’s head two meters high.
Qi Forbidden Hundred Miles was first activated, the air felt like ice blocks, and falling debris was instantly frozen mid-air.
Bai Shou’s face changed, his skin on face and hands suddenly sprouted fine snake scales.
The scales buzzed and trembled, managing to break free from Qi Forbidden Hundred Miles suppression, suddenly shifting sideways.
But just as he moved half a body length, a powerful pull suddenly emerged from the waist area.
At some point, the dragon’s head in mid-air turned into finger-thick ropes, silently binding Bai Shou’s waist.
At this momentary delay, a smear of black and white light appeared in Chen Mu’s hand.
Sensing the silent killing intent, Bai Shou’s face changed, his eyes now turned into snake pupils suddenly shrank into a line; he immediately raised the bronze token decree and shouted.
“Chen Mu, heed the command, cease all attacks, immediately surrender and…”
His shout was not finished.
Whoosh!
The Yin Yang Qi abruptly flew over and pierced through his head.
Brush!
The left eye, left ear, and a part of the skull suddenly turned to flying ashes and scattered, leaving behind a cylindrical pit.
The remaining snake pupil in Bai Shou’s eye was full of confusion.
I clearly activated the Contractual Decree, how dare this guy still move, does he not fear Yin Fire Burning Heart?
He desperately opened his eyes and stared at Chen Mu.
As he saw a pale white flame line emerging from the void, shooting straight at Chen Mu’s heart like lightning.
Bai Shou immediately showed a fierce, gleeful smile.
Die with me!
But in the next moment, he realized that as the arrow-like line of fire approached Chen Mu, its flames became smaller and smaller. By the time it touched Chen Mu’s clothes, it had turned into a spark barely larger than a needlepoint.
A small black spot the size of a grain of rice appeared on Chen Mu’s chest.
Then… the Yin Fire, which could instantly burn a person to ashes, just extinguished and disappeared.
Bai Shou: “…”
This is unfair!
He felt a surge of grief and anger, and suddenly, a gush of blood spurted out from his half-missing head.
His entire body shook violently and fell backward. After convulsing a few times, he completely lost his life.
Contractual Decree?
Chen Mu glanced at the Nine-Life Tribulation Splitting Technique glowing faintly on the stone door and then at the Heavenly Demon Spirit Seed in the depths of his consciousness, like stars in the sky.
“I wasn’t afraid of the Five Thunders Bombarding, so why would I fear Yin Fire Burning Heart?”
“Ha!”
He casually walked forward, waving his hand to collect Bai Shou’s body into the Five Ghosts Bag, then turned and left the underground area.
…
Mid-mountain thatched cottage.
Chen Mu held an ink-green jade pendant the size of a walnut.
With a large infusion of mana, with a bang, the jade pendant suddenly shattered.
A pile of fragments burst forth from the jade pendant, most of which were already broken.
After some picking and choosing, he only found seven or eight pieces of Red Jade Money and a jet-black long spear-shaped magic artifact.
“To remain intact during the collapse of the Mustard Seed Jade Charm, this magic artifact is extraordinary.” Chen Mu raised an eyebrow, reaching out to grab it.
When held in hand and slightly swung, it actually felt quite heavy.
This surprised him even more.
Chen Mu practiced both the Heavenly Demon Path, his body having undergone multiple refinements, and in the early years, he often used the Five Ghosts Possession to showcase great strength.
Yet he still felt the spear magic artifact was heavy…
“A good thing!”
Chen Mu became interested, poured mana into it, and the spearhead buzzed, a layer of sharp Qi Blade emerging.
As he moved it slightly toward the rocking chair engraved with the Strong Wall Ghost Pattern, the tip hadn’t even touched the armrest before leaving a penetrating hole in it.
“The spear’s body is as heavy as a mountain, and its Vigorous Qi is extremely sharp. If struck with great force, it might break the Innate Protective Qi Mechanism in an instant!”
“If that old ghost Bai had attacked with this spear using his Heavenly Demon True Body from the start, it wouldn’t have been easy for me to defeat him,” Chen Mu thought to himself.
The old guy thought he had the upper hand with the Contractual Decree, so he didn’t use his full strength, and ended up being caught off guard and easily losing his life.
Tsk!
Thinking about it, that old ghost Bai did die quite unjustly.
But… it suits me just fine!
Heh heh!
Chen Mu’s face was full of amusement.
…
The next day.
Tingchao Cave.
The Qi Cultivators from the Ten Thousand Laws Hall who came with Bai Shou were all gathered together by Chen Mu.
“When can the Mountain Protection Magical Barrier be remodeled?”
“Besides remodeling the Forbidden Law, do you have any other tasks?”
“If there are any difficulties, tell me, and I will definitely help you…” Chen Mu asked a series of questions with a gentle expression.
In secret, he fully activated the Truth Listening Divine Power, carefully observing their Qi Mechanisms to ensure there were no Underworld God Transformation Warriors or Lock Dragon Knights hidden among them.
He also used the long-unused Heavenly Demon Seven Emotions Curse, leveraging the Heavenly Demon Divine Power to scrutinize their real emotions, trying to distinguish if there were any among them like Bai Shou who harbored other intentions.
Fortunately, after a round of questioning, Chen Mu mainly confirmed that these people were really only here to remodel the Mountain Protection Magical Barrier, and then he slightly relaxed.
He gently encouraged them, promising various benefits, and then sent them off to continue the remodeling of the Forbidden Law.
But in secret, he intercepted the Qi Mechanisms of a few people, to facilitate the use of the Nightmare Victory Spell in case of unforeseen events.
Watching them leave, Chen Mu stood at the entrance of Tingchao Cave, observing the busy people throughout the valley, lost in thought.
“What exactly is the Heart Nourishing Pill, to be worth Bai Shou coming to secretly harm me himself?”
“It’s highly likely that Luo Ding from the Holy Heart Institute’s Capital Institute is also involved, otherwise Bai Shou wouldn’t have obtained the Contractual Decree.”
“There must be some unknown transaction between the Holy Heart Institute and the Kangzhou Lock Dragon Institute.” He looked grave.
Were multiple Lower Courtyard Villages in Yizhou destroyed just because of Outer Heaven Demon?
Should I just run away?
If I run away, where should I run to?
In that moment, Chen Mu’s thoughts were in turmoil, hesitating.
