My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 531 Progress

The lights are on, the night is dim, and the hustle and bustle outside the City God Temple has subsided.

In front of the gatehouse, the scene inside Yicui Tower in Luandu County occupies the center of the water curtain, where a group of girls in red and green gauze are dancing gracefully.

"What a pity. After all, it's just a remote county. The girls are not bad looking, but the choreography and music are so lame."

"Well... I don't want to see it at all."

An hour later, Chen Mu calmly turned off the screen of Yicui Tower, waved his hand and released the five ghosts to clean up the leftovers on the table, then turned around and walked back to the east courtyard of the City God Temple.

In the courtyard, next to the Jade Dew Well, Chen Mu took out a rocking chair, placed the exquisite jade plate on the edge of the well, stuffed a white jade coin into the center groove, and then he lay in the chair and looked at the sky.

In the dark and boundless night sky, countless bright stars are shining, clear and dazzling.

Even though he has been looking at it for more than ten years, he still never gets tired of looking at the night sky.

There was a trace of fluorescent light flowing on the exquisite jade plate, and the spiritual energy of the earth was emerging around it.

Feeling the faint joy radiating from his body inside out, Chen Mu felt a sense of relief as if he had met an old friend.

"After many years of twists and turns, I can finally practice Qi and cultivate immortality again."

Before, he only had more than two hundred white jade coins in his hand, and even if he returned to the world of the living, he did not dare to practice.

Now Sun Ke has successfully sold the first batch of Bigu Pills. With the Absolute Breath ability to protect him, as long as Sun Ke is careful enough, he can exchange it for an endless supply of white jade money, so that he dares to start practicing Huangquan General Principles again.

As the thought came to mind, a gray wall appeared.

Huangquan General Principles: 9914/10000/Level ;

"The eighth level of the Divine Aperture Talisman will be completed today."

Taking a deep breath, Chen Mu closed his eyes.

Inside the jade, a silver hollow sphere is suspended in the middle, and the seven layers of talismans inside are constantly rotating slowly and disorderly, like the bright moon in the sky, exuding a sense of eternity.

Along with Chen Mu's thoughts, the mist-like magic power surged like a wave, rushing rapidly towards the hollow sphere.

Soon after, it blossomed in more places, quickly condensing and accumulating into intricate silver nets. As it continued to spread, fuse and expand, a new layer of divine talismans quickly emerged.

Time passed slowly, the night became darker, and a bright moon hung in the sky, casting a white light.

a moment.

  hum!

Chen Mu's muscles trembled, as if a wave rolled and spread under his skin. Cells rapidly divided and replaced each other, and in one breath, his whole body changed from the inside out.

The jade seed expanded outwards again, and it was already the size of a human head. In the middle, eight layers of divine orifice talismans nested together slowly rotated.

"Finally it's done..." Chen Mu opened his eyes excitedly.

"How about... going to Yicui Tower in Luandu County to celebrate tomorrow?"

"Well, I mainly want to give Titi some advice on choreography and music. I don't want to waste the sisters' beautiful looks."

……

The days passed by.

The sun is shining and the weather is warming up.

East of Jiangyang County, between the Nanlin Mountains, the snow melted, revealing patches of dry yellow ground.

puff!

A pair of black boots stepped into the muddy ground, sinking most of the way in and splashing mud and water.

Sun Ke shook off the mud on his feet and looked up at the towering snow-capped mountains not far away.

He got the news that the Yuanping Fufang personnel had rebuilt a stronghold that was secretive and safe and could exchange resources.

So he followed the guidance of the secret method, traveled through mountains and rivers for several days, and finally arrived deep in the Nanlin Mountains in Jiangyang County.

"The location you chose is really remote. Are you scared by the Dragon Locking Courtyard? Tsk..." Sun Ke, who was wearing a monkey face mask, curled his lips, lowered his head and glanced at the green strange bird pattern emitting a faint black light on the back of his left hand, and suddenly felt relieved.

He has successfully cultivated the breath-stopping magical power using the secret records of embroidery.

On the shady side of the mountain, Sun Ke entered a narrow cave and after going 50 to 60 meters deep, a low passage suddenly opened up. A series of wide passages extending in all directions appeared, like an ant nest.

Dots of fluorescent algae are scattered on the stone walls of the passage, dispelling the darkness.

Sun Ke followed the route in his mind, turning and descending. After a while, accompanied by the sound of gurgling water, deep pools appeared at the intersection of the passage.

“Could this pool of water lead to an underground river?” Sun Ke couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.

"Place the gathering point deep in the mountain, and use the thick mountain to cover the Dragon Locking Courtyard for investigation."

"The entrances and exits are complex and varied, and these pools of water are likely connected to underground rivers. Even if we are discovered, it won't be difficult to escape."

"As expected of a member of the Yuanping Fufang organization, he has experience!" Sun Ke felt excited: "It is so secretive and safe, the customer flow must be very impressive."

He brought more than 200 bottles of fasting pills this time, and they could only be consumed at once if there were more customers. In addition, he also needed to purchase yellow sprout rice, and only large-scale markets could meet the requirements.

Just as I was thinking about it, I turned a corner and a huge underground space covered with high and low strange rocks appeared.

In the left corner, seven or eight transparent jade beads were embedded in the strange rock, illuminating an area as large as half a basketball court.

At this moment, more than twenty people wearing masks were gathered together to talk.

Sun Ke just took a look and his pace suddenly slowed down, feeling a huge sense of disappointment in his heart.

  Kodaira Fukubo? That's it?

Can these few people really digest the fasting pills I brought?

He endured the disappointment and walked forward, paying a white jade entrance fee, and chatting with everyone one by one. In the end, he only collected about 300 kilograms of yellow sprout rice and sold 41 bottles of fasting pills. "You are all poor!" Sun Ke looked unhappy.

"Everyone, I will be leaving Jiangyang County for the Shiwanda Mountains soon, and the gathering here will no longer be held." A fat man wearing a black robe and a bronze ghost mask spoke.

Everyone was talking about it, and Sun Ke's face became more and more ugly.

After searching for seven or eight days, I finally found a gathering place for Qi Refiners. Not only are there few people, but they are also about to disband?

  If he can't harvest the yellow sprout rice and sell the bigu pills, how can Mr. Gongsun let himself live well? !

Just as I was thinking about what might happen, I suddenly felt an itch on my spine, as if something was crawling and growing inside my body.

Seven Sons of Unity? !

  Sun Ke suddenly felt a chill in his heart!

No, I must sell the fasting pills as soon as possible and exchange them for white jade money!

He couldn't help but look at the man with the bronze ghost face mask, and a cruel look flashed in his eyes.

This Xiaoping Fufang cannot be disbanded!

  Not only can they not disperse, they must continue to expand in scale to attract more Qi Refiners to exchange resources!

……

Half a month later.

The Statue Cave is located on the west side of the courtyard.

Most of the bluestone slabs on the ground were removed by Chen Mu, leaving only two crisscrossing stone paths that divided the courtyard into four vegetable plots.

At this time, the dark brown soil in the vegetable field has been filled with various green vegetables.

Chen Mu stood on the noon corridor on the north side. Under the control of Qi Ban Baili, a large ball of jade dew flew over the vegetable field, sprinkling jade dew drops.

“The local vegetables in Luandu County are okay, but they are still not as delicious and fresh as the ones I grow myself.”

He has migrated many times over the past decade, and has been to the netherworld and the underworld. He has eaten countless wild vegetables, but whenever he finds something he likes, he will keep the seeds as a treasure.

It is spring-like all year round in Shenxiang Cave, and there is a Jade Dew Well that provides high-quality nutrient solution. Not long after arriving in Shenxiang Cave, he turned the west courtyard into a vegetable garden, planting a variety of vegetables for his taste.

As he thought about it, a gray wall appeared before his eyes.

Huangquan General Principles: 799/10000/th level;

"Thinking carefully, it is strange that this statue cave is very suitable for condensing the acupoints for cultivation."

The practice of Ningqiao cultivation will consume the original energy. Ordinary people need Peiyuan Dan to strengthen the foundation and replenish the essence. Chen Mu used Huiyuan Tang instead.

There is a jade dew well in the cave of the statue. The jade dew in the well can replenish his origin, and it is endless. He doesn't even need to use the dew-collecting spell to collect and refine it.

What's more, the cave is isolated from the outside world and no danger can get in. It is simply a perfect place for retreat.

"It's just that there's a lack of earth spiritual energy, so it needs to cost some white jade money." Chen Mu smacked his lips and sighed.

After half a month of practice, he had completed one tenth of the last level of Huangquan General Principles, but the 150 white jades he had obtained from selling the Bigu Pills had all been used up. Most of the more than 200 white jades he had originally had were also consumed.

"Sun Ke hasn't arrived yet? Has he been captured and taken to the Dragon Locking Courtyard?" Chen Mu frowned.

"It shouldn't be possible. With the Absolute Breath ability covering it up, as long as Sun Ke is careful, he won't be discovered by the Dragon Locking Courtyard."

"That guy is flexible and low-key. He is a man of few words. There's no problem."

"Well, it's probably because the journey is too long and it delayed us for some time." Thinking back to Sun Ke's previous performance, Chen Mu felt relieved.

……

"Rebuilding Pingfufang, are you crazy?" A fat man with a bruised face and nose stared at Sun Ke in disbelief.

"The lesson from the past is right in front of us. The huge Pingfufang was wiped out by the Suolongyuan. If you want to die, don't drag me with you!"

"Hmm?" Sun Ke glanced at the other person expressionlessly.

The fat man's body suddenly trembled, and the fat on his face twitched.

Thinking of his own situation, he felt bitter, but he had to persuade them: "Mr. Sun, this is really not something you can do! Gathering thirty or fifty people is fine, but gathering one or two hundred people at once is too easy to be discovered, and people will die!"

"Then wasn't it a waste of time that I spent the past half month digging holes, opening mountains and building a stronghold?" Sun Ke stared at the other party coldly.

Immediately he put on a smile again and walked forward, slowly helping the other person straighten his collar while trying to persuade him.

"Why don't we be a little braver?"

"You know the effect of the Breathless Stone. With it, no matter how many people gather together, you don't have to worry about being investigated."

"Besides, even if you don't have confidence in me, you have to have confidence in the person behind me. That Mr. Gongsun can force the Suolongyuan to retreat head-on. With him around, what are you afraid of!" Sun Ke said in a calm voice.

"More importantly, the more people there are, the higher the entrance fee will be. If I charge him two white jades per person, it will be a steady stream of money. How much white jade money will that be?"

"Fifty percent of it will go to Lord Gongsun, but the rest will be split equally between us. What do you think..."

The fat man's expression suddenly changed. He put the bronze ghost mask in his hand on his face and said loudly: "Just tell me how many people you want to gather."

"Of course the more the better!" Sun Ke smiled.

With a slight bang, a wooden box as high as his forearm appeared at Sun Ke's feet. He kicked the wooden box open, and a pile of black pebbles covered with patterns appeared.

"All these Breathless Stones should be dispersed."

"Each participant will be given two, so that they can come secretly and leave safely, and ensure that they will not be discovered by the Dragon Locking Institute!"

“As long as we hold it once, Pingfufang will be completely rebuilt. From now on, we can just sit back and collect money!” Sun Ke’s eyes flashed with brilliance.
