My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 584 Ghost Pattern
Time passes day by day.

Two more lower houses of Eyang Dao were disbanded, and more and more lower house disciples gathered in Eyang Mountain.

More tents and wooden houses appeared at the foot of the mountain. The hillside where Chen Mu’s wooden building was located was no longer the edge of the building complex at the foot of the mountain.

Fortunately, the hillside is high and remote, and many people find it troublesome to go up and down the hill, so they avoid building their homes on the hillside. This allows the surrounding environment of his residence to still maintain a certain degree of tranquility and safety.

That morning, Chen Mu opened his eyes as soon as the sun rose.

When I got up and got dressed, the black smoke of the Five Ghosts filled the air around me, swallowing up some dust and dirt.

After breakfast, Chen Mu adjusted his appearance in front of the bronze mirror, then went out with Li Moliang's face, and hurried towards the Pingjiang Dojo on the east side of Eyang Mountain.

In the past few days, he had to go to the Pingjiang Dojo every day to assist in shipbuilding. He could not be late or leave early, and he had to work for the full five hours a day.

"After traveling through time and space to cultivate immortality, I still have to go to work like in my previous life. Tsk... it's really unbelievable." Chen Mu shook his head slightly.

"Forget it, I'll just go to work. It's good to be able to leave Yunzhou. It's not like I can't take some time off."

……

Pingjiang on the east side of Exang Mountain is a tributary of Tongtian River. It has a large amount of water and a deep and wide river channel.

The Pingjiang Dojo is located on the underwater riverbed.

As usual, Chen Mu came to the top of a huge turtle shell, following the bubble created by the water-repellent beads.

Nodding and greeting the familiar person next to him, Chen Mu skillfully cast the mustard seed spell into the turtle shell as he did in the past.

At this moment, twenty-one silver bead-shaped talismans were floating up and down in the jade seed.

Although he did not practice it deliberately, he still gained a lot of mustard spell experience by using it every day.

"It won't take long before I can fully condense the Mustard Seed Talisman. This is a pleasant surprise."

After being busy for half an hour, he looked around and found that many Qigong practitioners had begun to adjust their breathing and rest. Chen Mu immediately stopped and sat cross-legged on the table to take a break.

A gray wall appeared before his eyes, and Chen Mu looked at one of the columns.

Dark Cloud True Method: 9424/10000/Level ;

In the past ten days or so, he had spent most of his free time on the Dark Cloud True Method. His progress was rapid and he was on the verge of advancing.

As he thought about it, new dark cloud talismans appeared in the jade seed. As they condensed and destroyed, the mysteries of the true law emerged in his mind.

……

Five days later.

On the tortoise shell in the Pingjiang Dojo, Chen Mu closed his eyes and relaxed as usual.

The magic power in the jade seed continued to surge, and the gray dark cloud talismans connected into pieces, like a large dark cloud, covering the area around the divine orifice.

At a certain moment, the entire dark cloud shook, and quickly expanded and spread. Then it suddenly shrank, and in a flash, it followed the hollow gap of the divine orifice and drilled into the nine-layer divine orifice magic talisman. Only a wisp of mist was vaguely diffused around the divine orifice.

"Is this... done?"

Chen Mu was delighted and immediately called up the gray wall to check.

Dark Cloud True Method: Extreme;
"Is this the pinnacle of my practice? I thought this method had more levels."

Chen Mu calmed down and began to accept the insights given by the gray wall.

Just a quick glance and you can't help but be pleasantly surprised.

The secret of the Dark Cloud True Law lies in the Dark Cloud Talisman. The more thoroughly one comprehends it, the more talismans one can condense. Now that it has reached its limit, the number of Dark Cloud Talismans has soared to three thousand.

The volume of the entire talisman expanded several times, and the control of the Hunyuan Qi became extremely precise.

He immediately began to try to cleanse his spiritual power.

An imperceptible hissing sound rang out in my mind, followed by slight traces of pain, and a new round of transformation began deep within my body.

"In the past, when you were refining your spiritual orifices, you either had to open them or stop them, just like a flood."

“Now, we have deliberate control and precise operation on every part, just like targeted drip irrigation.”

"The Hun Yuan Qi is fully utilized, and each time the Hun Yuan Qi used for refining is directly saved by half!"

"Not only that, the bigger change is the total time taken for refining." Chen Mu sensed it carefully, and the smile on his face became more and more obvious.

In the past, it would take no more than half an hour to cleanse the mind, but the subsequent physical recovery and transformation would take as long as half a month.

Nowadays, with fine control, the refining speed has slowed down, and one refining session may even last seven or eight days.

But after that, you only need to recuperate for a day or two before you can start a new round of cleansing, which greatly shortens the time!

"It's worthy of being the secret teachings of Li Yang Dao, it's really mysterious and extraordinary!" Chen Mu couldn't help but smile.

……

In the next few days, the Dark Cloud Method operated autonomously, slowly and continuously cleansing the spiritual orifice.

Chen Mu only needs to devote some of his mind and pay a little attention to whether the Hunyuan Qi in the Wuyun Zhenfa is sufficient. If it is less, he can replenish it. He doesn't need to worry about anything else.

The fourth stage of Qi training, the Heche practice, has become a simple practice with automatic operation.

His whole mood improved a lot and he kept smiling.

I am very motivated to work, and even spend less time slacking off...

Well, this can’t be reduced at all.

At most, you can be more careful and meticulous when inserting the mustard seed talisman.

……

A few days later, Chen Mu injected the last mustard seed magic talisman into the large area of ​​the millstone under his feet.

He did not rush to find Lei Wen to receive a new task, but sat cross-legged as usual, pretending to rest, while his mind sank into the jade seed to check the progress of his spiritual cleansing.

"We will be able to complete this round of cleansing in two days."

"After one day of recuperation, you can start the sixteenth spiritual orifice cleansing."

"In a month at most, I can complete the second transformation of my spiritual power."

"If everything goes well, within two years, I will be able to completely master the Heche and complete the fourth level of Qi training." Chen Mu calculated silently.

After completing the Wuyun Zhenfa, the overall time required to practice Heche was saved by nearly a year compared to before.

"It's a pity that the Dark Cloud Method has reached its peak. It would be better if the efficiency could be improved a little bit more." Chen Mu thought greedily.

After watching the automatically running Dark Cloud Technique for a while and preparing to ponder other secret techniques, a voice suddenly sounded in my ears.

"My fellow Taoists, after everyone's joint efforts, the external restrictions on the Water Avoidance Shuttle have been completely completed."

Chen Mu opened his eyes and looked up to see Lei Wen standing on top of the turtle shell.

Noticing everyone's gaze, Lei Wen calmly performed a secret technique to allow his voice to spread underwater.

"Everyone follow me into the turtle shell later and start the construction of the ferry's interior."

Most people breathed a sigh of relief. After so many days of busy work in the depressing water, they finally successfully got through a stage.

……

After promising various rewards, Lei Wen led everyone to the front of the turtle shell.

The inside of the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Turtle had long been hollowed out, and the gaps where its head and forelimbs were originally located were covered by an invisible forbidden force, like a thin film that isolated the water from the outside.

Chen Mu followed the crowd and walked forward, easily passing through the membrane, as if walking through a layer of water vapor curtain. Apart from a slight cool feeling, there was no other strange feeling.

Then, a huge space with bright lights appeared before him.

The top of my head is as high as more than ten buildings, and its length and width are like two football fields.

"The mustard seed spell is indeed expanding the internal space of the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Turtle." Chen Mu looked around with interest.

He had used the Divine Listening Technique to secretly inquire about it before, and knew that the space inside the tortoise shell was much larger than the external appearance. But when he really saw it with his naked eyes, he still couldn't help but marvel.

"The mustard seed spell is probably related to the miniature spell in the Qianli Huting bag." Chen Mu understood.

"My fellow Taoists, the construction of the ferry has entered a new stage. We still need everyone to work together." Lei Wen said sincerely, "It is possible that all of you will take this water-avoiding shuttle to cross the Hundred Thousand Mountains."

"For the sake of our Lei family and for your own safety, I hope that all fellow Taoists can work together to improve this water-avoiding ferry."

……

The 24 Solar Terms Turtle was already huge, and the mustard seed spell expanded its space, so the interior was extremely spacious. With the blessing of some special spells, the air was also quite fresh.

In the next few days, new Qi Refiners were brought into the tortoise shell by Lei Wen every day to assist in shipbuilding.

Some of them set up magical restrictions like Chen Mu and others, while others began to use some light and hard bones of exotic animals to build cabins and pavilions to divide the internal space of the turtle shell.

Chen Mu and the others were arranged by Lei Wen to different positions and continue to pour mustard seed talismans into the inner wall of the tortoise shell.

The outer shell is blue-gray like a reef, but the inner shell is a soft white like white jade. There are faint traces of red lines on the inside.

When Chen Mu was taking a break, he couldn't help but watch carefully and soon felt a sense of familiarity.

"Is it a water-repellent charm?"

"Bai Lian Palace purchased the Water-Repellent Pearls at a high price, are they really going to use them to feed the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Turtles?" Chen Mu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

He had been skeptical about the news before, but now he had no choice but to believe it.

"The 24 Solar Terms Turtle is quite magical. It is said that if you feed it with special materials, there is a chance that its shell will have the same ability."

"I didn't expect that after eating the Water Repellent Beads, I could actually develop the ability to repel water."

He had sold a lot of water-repellent beads in the past, and maybe he had fed them to the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Turtle in front of him.

Thinking of this, Chen Mu felt a wonderful sense of relief in his heart.

At this moment, a thin spiral twisted line suddenly flashed a strange scarlet color.

Chen Mu couldn't help but look at the delicate lines, but as he looked at them, his whole body froze and he felt something was wrong.

"Red Eye Demon Pattern?!"

"No way..."

He did sell quite a few water-repellent beads at the beginning, but what he sold more... were the red-eyed ghost-patterned beads!

He moved closer to take another closer look.

After a moment, Chen Mu's mouth twitched and he stood up with a smirk on his face.

The good news is that the unusual line is very small and almost invisible.

The bad news is that the pattern is indeed the red-eyed ghost pattern.

"How many red-eyed ghost beads did I sell?"

"This thing shouldn't affect the turtle shell's ability to avoid water, right?"

Thinking that he might have to take this ferry in the future, Chen Mu couldn't help but face darkening.

This is like shooting oneself in the foot!
