I am grinding experience in another world-Chapter 626 - 614 Qian Shan

Lian Xi lay pale-faced in a rocking chair, his appearance listless and exhausted.

Despite being a Qi Refining Cultivator and having Condensed his Aperture, losing half of his liver still meant his vital energy was severely damaged.

"The Thousand Mountains Sutra comes from the ancient Thousand Mountains Path, and each secret technique within it possesses its own profound mysteries, thus it's been widely passed down," he explained.

Those secret techniques were indeed profound.

Chen Mu nodded in agreement.

When he had first obtained the Five Ghosts Bag, he had just started his cultivation. Now, over a decade had passed, and he had completed half of the Fourth Level of Qi Cultivation in refining the River Chariot. The Five Ghosts Bag and the Five Ghosts Moving Mountain were still of significant use.

There was also the United Heart Rope and its accompanying United Heart Curse.

If it hadn't been for using the United Heart Curse to cultivate the Seven Souls Path Soldier and cunningly extracting the core of the City God Dojo this time, he might have already died trapped within the Tianhe Law Realm.

"I wonder what kind of sect the Thousand Mountains Path was, even a few fragmented scrolls that have survived are infinitely useful."

"Its core true teachings..."

"Stop thinking about it, the secret scriptures are long gone," Lian Xi waved nonchalantly.

"The Thousand Mountains Path is a heterodox, exterminated by sects such as Pure Yang Luo Fu and others in ancient times because their methods were too bizarre."

"The secret scriptures were destroyed, only a few fragments remain."

"If it weren't for that, the world wouldn't even know about the Thousand Mountains Sutra."

What a pity.

The Five Ghosts Bag and the United Heart Rope were indeed unorthodox but indeed very useful.

Chen Mu shook his head regretfully.

"Tell me about that Dragon Ball Spirit Machine."

Since it accidentally entered his brow's Secret Acupoint, aside from manifesting when absorbing the Nourishing Spirit Wine, it remained motionless within the Secret Acupoint at other times, rendering the Spirit Nourishing Curse useless.

Such an uncontrollable Magic Artifact, while known to be valuable, still unavoidably worried Chen Mu.

"The fifth level of Qi Cultivation under the Heavenly Demon Path is called Artifact Creation," Lian Xi said calmly. "One needs to choose the teeth or bones, horns, eyeballs, amongst other parts of a Heavenly Demon True Body, and remodel them so that their essence transforms into a Root Device."

"The base of the Root Device is the Fetus, and the remodeled spiritual core is what constitutes the Spirit Mechanism."

"A complete Root Device is said to be able to refine the Heavenly Demon True Body into the True Form of the Heavenly Demon, an essential Magic Artifact for practitioners of the Heavenly Demon Path."

Lian Xi pondered, then added, "It's said that Heavenly Demon Monsters also have such Root Devices. Great Demons draw pearls and absorb moon essence under the moonlight; those so-called Pills are just superficial, the core essence is similar."

"So, we only need to find one complete organ of a Heavenly Demon Monster to use as a Fetus, combined with that Dragon Ball Spirit Machine, there's a high probability of obtaining a superior Root Device."

Spirit Mechanism, Root Device, nurturing the Heavenly Demon True Body?

That makes perfect sense now.

Recently, his Cloud Mirage Sky Demon Body had significantly improved, precisely due to the accidentally induced cold white fog.

Chen Mu had a sudden realization.

"The Dragon Ball Qiu Jinwu seeks is a Root Device cultivated by a former owner of the Heavenly River Water Mansion," Lian Xi continued.

"The physical Fetus was a pair of dragonfish eyeballs, which he had already refined successfully. As for its core Spirit Mechanism," he looked at Chen Mu meaningfully.

Though he had not seen the real thing, Lian Xi was seventy percent sure that the lost Dragon Ball Spirit Machine was in this man's hands.

"Why would Qiu Jinwu, a legitimate Qi Cultivator, steal a Root Device from someone of the Heavenly Demon Path?" Chen Mu asked, puzzled.

"Heavenly Demon Path needs a Root Device to cultivate into the True Form of the Heavenly Demon. Qi Cultivators similarly need Spiritual Treasures to nurture the Primordial Spirit."

"Why do you think Qiu Jinwu wants the Dragon Ball?" Lian Xi smirked at Chen Mu, his face mischievous.

Chen Mu's heart tightened.

"Could the Dragon Ball help Qiu Jinwu cultivate his Primordial Spirit?"

"A Root Device and a Spiritual Treasure are equivalent entities; that Dragon Ball likely just needs a bit of refining to become the core aid for Qiu Jinwu to nurture his Primordial Spirit."

"And now this Spirit Mechanism has ended up in your hands… haha!" Lian Xi's tone was filled with schadenfreude.

Chen Mu: "..."

This feud with Qiu Jinwu was damned solid now!

That was a Daoist Foundation Cultivator, who could turn heaven and earth with a wave of his hand, and facing him...

Just the thought of future troubles made Chen Mu tense all over.

As he was lost in thought about how to deal with this situation, a creaking noise sounded beside his ears.

He turned his head and saw Lian Xi leisurely lying in the rocking chair, swaying back and forth.

Chen Mu stared at the other's face, growing angrier the more he looked.

He was anxious and fearful, yet this captive seemed so at ease?

And that expression just now was clearly reveling in delight at his misfortune.

Ever since being afflicted with the Nightmare Victory Spell, Lian Xi's audacity had grown!

"Do you have any tracking marks left by Qiu Jinwu on you?" Chen Mu narrowed his eyes.

"Of course not," Lian Xi confidently replied. "If there were marks, during our time in the Tianhe Law Realm, it wouldn't even take three days, just a matter of moments, and Qiu Jinwu would have found you through me, and you wouldn't have had the chance to escape."

Chen Mu's face darkened.

"No?"

"No, I think there definitely is," he said glaring at Lian Xi, his expression unfriendly.

"What are you trying to do?" Lian Xi's heart tightened.

"Simply trying to minimize the risks," Chen Mu's expression changed, revealing a sinister smile.

With a wave of his hand, a pile of Forget River Stones the size of melon seeds appeared in front of them.

These were the remnants from earlier when he had refined the Extinguishing Breath Stones; now, they were all made into smaller Extinguishing Breath Stones.

Without stopping, he commanded a United Heart Rope, as thick as his pinky, to rise up.

With a thought, the rope scattered numerous black filaments. They entwined and extended, evenly wrapping around each small Extinguishing Breath Stone, and in an instant, the rope transformed into a cable several meters long and as thick as a wrist.

Swoosh!

The pitch-black cable, like a living creature, wrapped around Lian Xi from head to toe before he could react, cocooning him.

"These Extinguishing Breath Stones are too small, and their covering range is limited. Only by wrapping the whole body like this can the aura be completely concealed," Chen Mu said with a smile.

Lian Xi: "Wuuu wuuu…"

Can't you just sew it into clothing?

You're just doing this to torment someone!

"What, you're quite willing!" Chen Mu clapped his hands, his face full of surprise, "I knew you wouldn't object!"

Lian Xi: "Wuuu wuuu…"

If you're capable, don't seal my mouth!

"Is it tied too loosely? Afraid that the aura will leak?"

"No need to worry, I'll wrap a few more layers around you to make sure no aura escapes!" Chen Mu said cheerily.

Lian Xi: "…"

"Of course, that is still not safe enough, it's better you stay inside Thousand Lanterns City."

"Don't mind that it's dark and silent as death there, but it's still a Cave Heaven after all."

"Separated by Cave Heaven, even if there are tracking marks on you, Qiu Jinwu will definitely not be able to pursue you."

"Trust me, there will absolutely be no problem!"

You wrap me up like a cocoon, and now you want to lock me up too?

Qiu Jinwu, where the hell are you?

Come quickly and kill this inhuman creature!

…

After sending Lian Xi back to Thousand Lanterns City, Chen Mu cheered up for a while, then gathered his emotions.

With a flick of his wrist, a swirl of black smoke appeared, and seven black gourds emerged.

"Lu Ku, Shang Huan…" Chen Mu stared at the palm-sized gourds floating in mid-air, silent.

Scenes of initially befriending or becoming enemies with them involuntarily surfaced in his mind.

After many years apart, he had not expected to reunite in this manner.

The United Heart Curse activated, and Chen Mu silently sensed. Before long, he discovered a faint but slowly strengthening cold vitality within the gourds.

"Yin Spirits?" Chen Mu mused.

Initially, the Seven Souls Path Soldier was supposed to implant the Seven Sons United Heart Gu into the host.

And Seven Sons United Heart Gu is actually Netherworld Worms.

Seven Souls Path Soldier uses Secret Techniques to switch life and death, transforming the Netherworld Worms into Silver Soul Monsters. And because there are living hosts involved, the Daoist Soldiers produced are... Netherworld Yin Spirits?!

"Clearly, thousands of years ago, Thousand Mountains Path had already studied the Netherworld!"

"The method of the Seven Souls Path Soldier is clearly mimicking the Netherworld mechanism, artificially creating Yin Spirits!"

He looked at the seven gourds in front of him, thinking about the possible connection between Thousand Mountains Path and the Netherworld, and felt an inexplicable tremor in his heart.

After a long while, he came back to his senses.

"Initially, did Lu Ku send Shang Huan to hurry to Gan River Lower Institute, wanting me to execute the Seven Souls Path Soldier method, to avoid being captured by Lock Dragon Courtyard?"

"Tsk, now it seems you got your wish."

But now... after becoming Yin Spirits, are they Silver Soul Ghosts with the memories of the seven people, or are they originally from seven people reincarnated by borrowing Silver Soul Ghosts?

Chen Mu thought for a while, then could only silently shake his head.

"In this world, having the chance to live is already good enough; what's the use of being too clear."

When he had adjusted his mood and looked up at the seven exquisite little gourds again, he couldn't help but smile.

An image of seven little people inexplicably popped into his mind.

Had Thousand Mountains Path also studied Gourd Babies?

Ha!

Wonder if they have a Gourd Little King Kong.

Chen Mu chuckled, then flipped his hand and stored the Seven Souls Gourds into the Five Ghosts Bag.
