My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 564: Red Eye Demon Pattern

On the top floor of the ship, in a spacious room.

"Are you going to learn the Red-Eyed Ghost Pattern?" A burly old man with white hair and beard stared at Chen Mu with sympathy.

"Thank you for your help." Chen Mu clasped his fists respectfully.

"Have you offended Yuan Xian?" the burly old man asked curiously.

"Why do you say that, old man?" Chen Mu was puzzled.

"The Dragon Locker needs the assistance of the City God's Dojo to communicate with the Netherworld. If you go to the Qi Refiner's territory, it will be very difficult to perform the Netherworld Spell."

"If you want to use a Yin Ming magic weapon to impersonate a Qi Refiner's magic weapon, you have to add a sufficient number of Yin Ming ghost patterns to the fake magic weapon, which is extremely difficult."

"The Dragon Locker needs incense and vitality all the time, but there is no City God Temple in the Goose Sheep Road, so you can only rely on the Longevity Wine as a substitute. But drinking too much of that stuff has serious hidden dangers and can easily cause madness."

"Those spies were specially trained in the Dragon Locking Academy since childhood, and they have corresponding means to deal with the situation. But you..." The burly old man stared at Chen Mu with a look of pity.

  If you go too far away from the City God’s Taoist temple, will it become difficult to perform the spell to reach the underworld?

Mist grass!

How come I don’t know?! Yuan Xianxian didn’t even mention his hometown.

"Where does Yuan Xian plan to send you?" the burly old man asked cheerfully.

"Yunze Lake and Chongmei Mountain."

"That's not bad. It's not far from Nanshu. If you cast the Netherworld Spell, you will be able to reach the Netherworld five or six times out of ten."

Half success rate?

"What if we went to Goose and Sheep Mountain?"

"Then you're in trouble. If you can succeed three times out of a hundred, you'd be extremely lucky." The burly old man spoke with sympathy.

Chen Mu's face twitched suddenly.

I was cheated by that old guy Yuan Xian. No wonder he ran away after showing up this time. He must be feeling guilty!

Fortunately, I am a serious Qi cultivator and can learn the art of refining water-repellent beads. Otherwise, if I really went to Eyang Mountain, I would be doomed!

"How about I help you file a complaint against him?" The burly old man urged with a smile, "With me on your side, I will definitely make him suffer."

Chen Mu's expression changed, but soon returned to normal: "Old sir, you misunderstood. Yuan Xian and I have no grudge against each other."

"Thank you for your kindness, old man. We are all working for the great cause. There is really no need to cause trouble." He said nonsense with a righteous look on his face.

Well, next time we meet, let Yuan Xian chop a thousand forks.

"Even if there was no hatred between us originally, if he gave you this task, we would become enemies!" The burly old man advised hurriedly.

You're so anxious. I think you're the one who has a grudge against Yuan Xian.

Chen Mu didn't say anything, but just stared at the burly old man with a calm expression.

"Boring." The burly old man curled his lips in disappointment, "What a pity! I was thinking of giving Yuan Xian a good beating."

Chen Mu's eyelids twitched.

It's fake that he's trying to help me, and the real purpose is to cause trouble for Yuan Xian. This old guy is not an easy person to deal with.

Seeing that Chen Mu refused to listen, the burly old man stopped talking.

Then he rolled his eyes upwards, revealing the whites of his eyes, and the power of the netherworld emerged, and his right hand immediately stretched out and grabbed forward.

When he turned over and spread his palm, a silver thread as long as a little finger's hair appeared in the palm of his hand.

"Come on, practice hard." The burly old man casually handed the silver thread to Chen Mu.

"I'm only here for half a month this time. If you can't learn and get into trouble with Yuan Xian, I won't care." The burly old man said lightly.

"I will definitely not make things difficult for you." Chen Mu smiled slightly and reached out to take the silver thread.

Although the Tongyou Curse has limitations, he still has to learn it.

He had read the secret scroll on the Water-Repellent Beads. The method of refining them was extremely complicated, and there were five talismans that needed to be condensed at the beginning.

In comparison, the Red Eye Ghost Pattern can save more time. He must first learn a method of water-avoiding beads to facilitate infiltrating the lower courtyard of Yunchong.

Chen Mu took a deep breath and cast the spell to open the netherworld. The power of the Yin spirit mixed with the essence of Qi, blood and essence to form a power to open the netherworld. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the void.

Almost in an instant, his consciousness sank into a pitch-black space.

Immediately he felt a warmth in his palms, as if he was holding a hot electric wire.

Chen Mu looked down at the silvery thread in his palm, and subconsciously raised his hand to check it out. Then he felt a tug on the thread. He pulled it hard, just like a hook. With a strong struggle, a ball of silver thread as big as a human head and as thick as smoke and fog was pulled out of the dark space and appeared in front of him. Inside it was a glowing light, like breathing.

The ball of thread is roughly oval in shape, with dense tangles in the center and the surrounding threads connected along a special trajectory. At first glance, it looks like an eyeball with cloud patterns.

"Is this the Red Eye Demon Pattern?"

Chen Mu looked at it curiously for a moment, then reached out and pressed the silver thread ball, slowly injecting the power of the netherworld. The red-eyed ghost pattern, which was originally just flashing fluorescent light, suddenly shone brightly.

Chen Mu felt a burning pain in his palm, as if he was pressing on a red-hot iron. However, he remained calm, allowing waves of pain to come and continue to pour the power of the netherworld into the ghost pattern.

A complex pattern began to appear out of thin air in his memory.

Soon.

  hum!

The red-eyed ghost pattern in front of him trembled suddenly, and then stabilized. The light kept flashing, and it also became constant. A vague connection appeared between him and the red-eyed ghost pattern.

"It's done!"

Chen Mu was delighted.

But this joy did not last long, and he felt something strange.

When he looked up suddenly, he found that countless dark ghost patterns of various shapes had appeared three meters away at some point.

At this moment, they were constantly hovering and circling, like living things, constantly approaching Chen Mu to test him, and then were blocked and bounced back by an invisible force.

Feeling the greedy feeling like a hungry wolf released by those dark ghost patterns, Chen Mu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"It's a good thing I have the Extreme Passing Spell. Otherwise, even with the Dragon Locker's assistance, I'm afraid I won't be able to quickly master the Red Eye Ghost Mark."

When the Dragon Locker casts the Netherworld Spell, it is like using his body as bait to fish. The power of the Netherworld is the bait, and the Netherworld Ghost Mark is the fish. The Netherworld Ghost Mark consumes his power of the Netherworld and gives back to the corresponding Ghost Mark.

But the power of the underworld is limited. If the Yin and Ming ghost patterns are too many and too complicated, he will only get various unsystematic fragments, which will be useless.

However, Chen Mu's Tongyou Curse is perfect and can isolate other ghost patterns. By coordinating with the Tongyou power of other Dragon Locking Masters, he can only focus on the one he chooses, which greatly improves his learning efficiency.

With a thought, Chen Mu's consciousness disappeared into the netherworld.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I met a pair of big eyes with clear black and white.

He resisted the urge to punch him and leaned back slightly, only to find a handsome and mischievous boy with two buns on his hair, staring at him closely.

"Chang'er, don't be rude." The burly old man lifted the boy's clothes by the back of his neck, put him cross-legged on the coffee table beside him, and then looked at Chen Mu in surprise.

"Done?"

Feeling the complex structure diagram that appeared out of thin air in his mind, Chen Mu nodded slightly: "It should be done."

"Try it!" The burly old man raised his eyebrows and threw a white porcelain teacup to Chen Mu.

"Use it?" Chen Mu reached out and took it, looking surprised.

"It's just a try anyway." The burly old man didn't care about the urging.

Chen Mu nodded slightly, held the teacup with his left hand, and pressed the rim of the teacup with his right index finger.

Recalling the image in my mind for a moment, it was like flipping a switch. A cold force suddenly appeared at my fingertips. It immediately flowed along my fingers and sank into the white porcelain teacup.

The teacup suddenly felt a little colder, and an invisible force began to loom around the teacup.

Chen Mu couldn't help but frown, because he found that the red-eyed ghost pattern that just appeared in his mind was quickly dissipating. After a few breaths, only a few threads were left.

"Sure enough, this is just to temporarily activate the Red Eyed Ghost Pattern with the help of medicine. If I want to master it thoroughly, I have to continue practicing." He couldn't help but sigh.

The burly old man who had been working hard couldn't help but open his eyes wide. He quickly stood up, took the teacup from Chen Mu's hand, and threw it into the Jade Belt River outside the window.

Chen Mu also stood up and followed the burly old man to the window and looked down.

The teacup splashed a little and then slowly sank into the water. Then, with a pop, a bubble with a diameter of more than two meters suddenly appeared at the bottom of the water.

"You brought out the Red-Eyed Ghost Pattern the first time? Tsk tsk, do you have any talent left?" The burly old man raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Mu.

"My name is Xu Zhou, you can call me Old Xu or Old Man Xu."

"This is my grandson, Xu Chang." The burly old man patted the handsome boy's head and happily introduced him to Chen Mu.

"My name is Gongsun Sheng. I'll be thankful for your guidance in the next few days." Chen Mu also smiled and clasped his fists.
