I am grinding experience in another world - Chapter 809 - 797: Spiritual Eye
After half a month of busy work, the Ren Character Camp gradually returned to calm.
The injured soldiers have been properly settled.
The white mist surrounding the area slowly expanded outward, and the damaged Five Directions Flag was being slowly repaired.
Its Spiritual Light’s ability to dispel evil and remove poison was enhanced, and the lightly injured Daoist soldiers no longer needed Chen Mu to use the Plague Immortal Technique to remove poison.
Just staying within the mist for a long time would cleanly dispel it.
Previously, due to an order from Daoist Monarch Jiang, he had to divide his attention, working with the Giant Spirit Divine to extract poison and heal wounds.
Now that things were initially stable, he was finally free.
On this morning, in the corner of the Ren Character Camp at the Green Jade Immortal Residence.
Chen Mu lay in a rocking chair, looking at the distant rolling mountains, admiring the lush green covering them.
Sitting in the floating wheelchair, Wu Jie came to the Ren Character Camp and found Chen Mu.
Having not seen each other for many days, the dejection on Wu Jie’s face had disappeared, replaced by a radiant, energetic glow.
“Did something good happen to you, my friend?” Chen Mu got up and asked curiously.
He was also puzzled about the purpose of Wu Jie’s visit.
“Today, Xuanyuan Hall released a notice. Regarding the exchange for recovery-type elixirs and talismans like those for restoring and replenishing, Daoist Monarch Jiang is willing to cover half of the Daoist Cultivation for us.” Wu Jie spoke joyfully.
Daoist Monarch Jiang voluntarily offered Daoist Cultivation to treat the injuries of his subordinate Daoist soldiers?
Is there such a good thing?
Chen Mu immediately smiled and clasped his hands, “Daoist Monarch Jiang is generous. Congratulations, Mr. Wu!”
Wu Jie nodded with some excitement.
“In a few days, I plan to exchange for a Jade Void Talisman to reshape my limbs, but this will consume a lot of vitality and essence. I sincerely ask for your assistance.” He looked at Chen Mu solemnly.
“I specially collected these monster bones, please kindly accept them, my friend.” Wu Jie used mana to levitate a wooden box from his thigh into the air. Its lid opened automatically, revealing a box full of Mustard Seed Talismans.
So, he’s eyeing my Soul Capturing Return to Origin Technique?
Chen Mu raised an eyebrow and glanced at the wooden box floating in front of him.
Assuming each talisman stores five hundred catties of Exotic Beast Meat, this box of fifty or sixty Mustard Seed Talismans contains at least twenty or thirty thousand catties of monster corpses.
This isn’t a small number; Wu Jie must have put in significant effort to gather this from several other camps.
It’s not that I can’t help, but…
“My secret technique is only an external method, it can replenish essence, but lacks purity. This concerns the major matter of limb regeneration…”
“It’s fine.” Wu Jie casually shook his head.
“The Jade Void Talisman has the ability to refine and purify, and it’s precisely because of this that the essence consumed by the talisman is considerable.”
“Though your secret technique provides mixed blood and essence, its quantity is exceptionally abundant.”
“The combination of the two will work perfectly.” His chubby face was full of smiles, clearly having planned out everything.
The Heavenly Treasure Record does have high-grade elixirs for nourishing essence and strengthening foundation, but those require a lot of Daoist Cultivation.
Here, Chen Mu only needs useless monster corpses from others.
Compared to this, naturally, here offers more value for cost.
Well… okay then.
As long as you’re not afraid of any issues, neither am I.
Chen Mu slightly nodded and accepted the box of Mustard Seed Talismans.
“I noticed someone setting up defensive Forbidden Law on the outskirts. Is the Daoist Monarch planning to station here permanently?” He took the opportunity to inquire about the camp’s status.
After more than half a month of guarding, the Five Directions Flag has been gradually restored, but there was no sign of the whole camp moving away.
“Hey, don’t underestimate this small island, it’s actually quite special.” Wu Jie spoke mysteriously, “I heard from other camp leaders that as long as we hold this island, Daoist Monarch Jiang will be listed.”
Be listed?
Investiture of the Gods?!
The Investiture of the Gods that allows a Primordial Spirit Daoist Monarch to advance?!
Is this little island really that special?
“Otherwise, why would the Daoist Monarch help us heal wounds?” Wu Jie chuckled.
“With this Flying Island, Daoist Cultivation is no longer a concern for the Daoist Monarch.”
“It’s the intact Daoist soldiers that can help the Daoist Monarch guard the Flying Island that are truly valuable.”
No wonder.
Chen Mu nodded in realization.
“Your Ren Character Camp is quite important, I believe it won’t be long before the Daoist Monarch makes a statement.” Wu Jie smiled.
…
Indeed, shortly after Wu Jie left, a team of Daoist soldiers clad in armor arrived at the Ren Character Camp.
They were the personal soldiers under the Daoist Monarch, always by his side.
They brought Chen Mu a large number of Treasure Medicine Talismans for healing and recovery, and specially transferred over a hundred Daoist soldiers skilled in Healing Secret Technique to join the Ren Character Camp.
They sent a huge pile of Daoist Cultivation, along with the decree of the Daoist Monarch, urging him to make continued efforts and heal the Daoist soldiers’ wounds as soon as possible.
This Ren Character Camp has indeed become a bona fide field hospital.
Chen Mu received various personnel and materials with a peculiar expression.
Fine then, a field hospital is a field hospital, it’s what I used to do anyway.
Moreover, with hundreds of Daoist Soldiers skilled in medical arts as assistants, it allows him to free himself and focus solely on cultivation.
Chen Mu pondered silently, a gray stone gate phantom appearing in his mind.
Yellow Springs Gourd: 5329/10000/Ninth Rank;
“With over half of the experience gained, only a few thousand remain. It won’t be long before I can completely master the Yellow Springs Gourd!” His heart was filled with excitement, and his face was all smiles.
…
At the center of Miling Island, beside a small lake.
Jiang Men stood before a large, robust tree filled with gaseous tendrils, his face also brimming with an uncontrollable smile.
The tree’s crown overshadowed the sky, yet its aura was ordinary, as if it were just an average tree.
However, Jiang Men was certain that within this great tree, there lie a Heaven and Earth Spiritual Eye attached.
It was tiny like a mustard seed, yet contained a vast grotto heaven within.
Previously, the island’s monsters had used the power of this spiritual eye’s grotto heaven to drag him into that illusory realm where reality was elusive.
As a result, more than half of the Daoist Soldiers perished or were injured, and he himself suffered damage to his essence after using the Blood Rebirth Technique multiple times.
“As long as I grasp this spiritual eye, all the losses will be worth it!” Jiang Men stared fervently at the great tree.
In this invasion of Mistaken Heaven, there was a pre-existing agreement with the Daoist Ancestor. Whoever can refine and master the spiritual eye of Mistaken Heaven will earn a place on the Investiture of the Gods.
The Investiture of the Gods is a joint creation of the Daoist Ancestors from the Pure Yang Dao, Luofu Dao, and Heavenly River Dao, embodying the mystical resonance of Heaven and Earth.
With its guidance, one can accurately and swiftly comprehend the true form of the Divine Demon.
This can save hundreds or even thousands of years of meticulous effort, allowing one to cultivate a Gang Sha Avatar early.
Ultimately, it is said that it can assist in the amalgamation of the avatar with the true form, with hope for the True Spirit!
“No one must know that I’ve discovered the spiritual eye.” A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
Although there is a contract forbidding mutual attacks, the contract is not without loopholes.
He was not considered a core figure within Luofu Dao, so it was possible that the direct descendants and progenies of the Daoist Ancestors had treasures granted by them to withstand the backlash of the contract.
For further advancement, taking risks to seize another’s spiritual eye was not out of the question!
“I must seal off the island, cutting off all communication. No messages should leave, nor should anyone go out!” He looked at the restored Five Directions Flag beside him, his face stern.
…
Time flew by.
Months passed in a flash.
The Five Directions Flag was fully restored, and the entire Miling Island was enveloped in white mist.
The Daoist Soldiers from various camps were stationed around, centering on the island’s lake.
Every day, different Daoist Soldiers would fly around patrolling and guarding in all directions.
To the southeast of the island, outside the Ren Character Camp, there was a bustling little market formed spontaneously.
The Daoist Soldiers mainly had cultivation levels at the second stage, with Primordial Talisman Qi Refiners and True Cave Heavenly Demon Path believers making up the majority.
These people couldn’t fast for long periods, so they needed food and water.
Miling Island spanned over twenty to thirty miles, covering a significant area. Many Daoist Soldiers had claimed plots of land to begin planting spirit grass and raising exotic beasts.
The unique environment of Mistaken Heaven seemed very suitable for the growth of exotic beasts.
The five-colored pheasant, originally the size of a basketball, had now grown more than twice its size, as if inflated. Even with its larger size, the meat remained as tender as ever.
Every time Chen Mu concluded his retreat, he would come to this small market to buy one to satisfy his cravings.
…
Green Jade Immortal Residence.
The Five Ghosts Moving Mountain black smoke enveloped the five-colored pheasant.
In just a few breaths, the pheasant had completed the entire process of plucking feathers, gutting, and washing.
After many years of practice, Chen Mu had become increasingly proficient in the Five Ghosts Moving Mountain Technique.
In addition to functions like sweeping, dishwashing, and waste disposal, the Five Ghosts Moving Mountain Technique had now gained the ability to process ingredients by plucking and scaling.
Looking at the glistening clean five-colored pheasant, Chen Mu was filled with pride.
“If the creator of this technique knew how exquisitely I used its application, they would surely be immensely comforted.”
He was utterly confident.
Some unknown ancestor: “…”
If I had known this would happen, I should’ve let this secret technique rot in my mind!
…
After the meal.
Chen Mu lay in a rocking chair at the entrance, holding a gourd of Nourishing Spirit Wine, gazing absentmindedly at the Five Ghosts Paper Dolls swinging on the wind chimes at the door.
With a slight movement of thought, the gray stone gate phantom emerged before him.
Yellow Springs Gourd: 8967/10000/Ninth Rank;
Miling Island was calm and peaceful, and the Ren Character Camp was a camp for the wounded, not needing to participate in patrolling duties.
Chen Mu now had ample leisure time for cultivation.
The surge in his Spiritual Deity brought about by the return of the Heavenly Demon Body, assisted by the Life and Death Seal cultivated through the Spiritual Treasure Pivot Scripture, along with the stable feedback from the gray stone gate, was propelling the progress of the Yellow Springs Gourd Technique rapidly.
“This time I must rest for a few more days, completely relax my tense spirit.”
“In the next retreat, strive to push my experience to the peak in one go and fully complete the Yellow Springs Gourd construction.”
