Chapter 768 Eighth Rank
Six hundred miles north of Jiufeng Mountain, in a misty valley, the figure of the Green Barbarian slowly emerged.

"Damn Peak Master of Weizhi Peak!"

These past few days, he has used secret techniques to investigate Jiufeng Mountain many times and has already found out who the murderer was who captured and killed the demon soldiers.

"Why not just seize this person's body?!" A fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

It took him a while to suppress the impulse.

"We must not let our emotions cloud our judgment and ruin things. This person is incredibly powerful, but he is ultimately an outsider to Jiufeng Mountain. It would be more valuable to replace the existing personnel of Jiufeng Mountain."

He took a deep breath and began to think about it carefully.

"Yuan Zhen of the Imperial Academy is the most suitable, but his strength is comparable to mine, so the risk of failure is high."

“The Right Supervisor is young and less capable, making him the easiest to replace. But because he is young, he doesn’t understand the restrictions on earth veins, so when I tampered with the earth veins later, I didn’t have a good reason to cover it up.”

"That Left Supervisor Hu Sheng is perfect. He's in charge of maintaining the protective laws and regulations of the mountain, so he can use his position to openly and legitimately take action against the innate earth veins!"

……

Several days later, dozens of miles outside Jiufeng Mountain, a cicada the size of a walnut, as green as jade, flew lightly through the forest.

A moment later, it seemed to have gotten tired of flying and disappeared behind a leaf the size of a palm.

The moment the cicada flew into the leaves, a dark shadow appeared in the sky above the forest.

The black smoke cloud contained a faint, dark red light that flickered within it, turning left and right as if patrolling its territory, before slowly drifting away after a while.

A jade cicada peeked out from behind a leaf, secretly watching the black smoke plume fly further and further away.

"Fortunately, I chose to infiltrate with a distraction. If I had come in my true form, I might have already been discovered by this ghostly thing." Green Barbarian, who had transformed into Jade Cicada, secretly rejoiced.

He infiltrated Jiufeng Mountain and this was the fifth patrolling ghost he had encountered.

"Damn it!" Green Barbarian glared at the black smoke that was gradually disappearing into the horizon, his heart burning with rage.

These black smoke spirits were the ones who captured his demon soldiers.

"It's coming soon."

"As long as I get close to that Left Supervisor Hu Sheng, I can use the Exquisite Heart-Sharing Technique bestowed by my Lord to enter his spirit and be reborn!"

"At that time, we will alter the earth's veins, open the passage between the two realms of the Mysterious Heaven and Earth, and summon demon soldiers and generals to avenge our men!"

Just as he was thinking about how to deal with the other party, everything suddenly went dark.

Green Barbarian looked up in surprise and saw a cloud of silver and black smoke that had appeared above him at some point.

not good!

Green Barbarian was shocked and was about to flee when he turned around and found himself surrounded by the same silver and black smoke.

next moment.

Whoosh!
The black and silver smoke, like a venomous snake hidden in the grass, suddenly burst out and instantly enveloped the jade cicada.

After a short, painful scream, the emerald green cicada vanished without a trace.

……

Beneath the large tree, a flash of golden light revealed Chen Mu's figure.

"Hehe! Another experience pack has arrived."

As usual, Chen Mu happily used the Yama's Feasting Divine Power Jade Cicada to completely devour it.

Then a surge of realizations suddenly came to mind.

"This is a huge experience boost?!" Chen Mu raised an eyebrow as he looked at the Heavenly Demon Armor that suddenly had over three hundred experience points on the stone gate.

"Has another beast undergone a metamorphosis and awakened its spirit after being bathed in the Emperor's Dew twice in the past two months?"

"What a good thing!"

Previously, the Listening Technique, in conjunction with 100,000 Yin Souls, had captured all the strange beasts around Jiufeng Mountain, and the Heavenly Demon Clan made rapid progress.

However, because they caught too many fish, they had very little to show for it in the following two months.

Unexpectedly, another strange beast has appeared that can excite him to establish his Dao Foundation.

"This Emperor's Dew is truly a wonderful thing."

"If we conduct a more thorough search..."

……

Over the next two days, he decisively explored the area within hundreds of miles of Nine Peaks Mountain, but unfortunately, he didn't encounter any more large experience points. On the other hand, he captured more than ten of those small exotic beasts that provided twenty or thirty experience points, which added another layer of spiritual light shield to his jade seed foundation.

Chen Mu knew when to stop and did not continue the search.

After all, even chives need time to grow.

……

In the misty valley, a green-browed old man in a red robe stood with a furious expression on his face.

"First they captured over a thousand of my demon soldiers, then they devoured my divided spirit!"

"You've ruined my plans time and time again! If I hadn't been reborn and regained my full strength, I would have devoured you, you human demon!" He gritted his teeth in hatred.

He had tried to sneak into Jiufeng Mountain several times in recent days, but all attempts failed.

If I hadn't run so fast, I might have lost two or three more points of focus.

"We can't delay any longer. We need to find someone else to be possessed and reborn in another place." Green Barbarian suppressed his anger.

"Wait for my return, heh heh..."

He was pondering how to prepare it with a sinister expression when he looked up and saw billowing black smoke rising into the sky in the distance.

Green Barbarian shrank its neck, turned around, and vanished in a wisp of mist.

Damn it, this place is no longer safe.

Go now!
……

time flies

As the Emperor's Dew landed, a large number of mythical beasts successfully awakened their spirits. The monsters that had awakened their spirits earlier also experienced a significant increase in strength under the stimulation of the Emperor's Dew.

Countless battles and struggles raged in the heart of Yizhou, resembling the practice of poison, making the situation increasingly chaotic.

The southwest region, however, was eerily calm.

In the mountains and forests outside, let alone monsters, even ordinary strange beasts are rarely seen.

They would either be devoured by Chen Mu's Yama to practice his techniques, or they would be caught and eaten by the wandering, patrolling ghosts.

It can be said that the potential danger of alien beasts was nipped in the bud.

Therefore, even after four or five months, and despite repeated drops of imperial dew, there was still no chaos at Jiufeng Mountain.

On this day, at Weizhi Peak, in front of a thatched wooden house.

The five paper ghost figures hugged the wind chimes on the eaves, tinkling and swaying like swings.

Chen Mu, who was lying in the rocking chair, woke up from his meditation and slowly opened his eyes.

Inside the jade, a yellow jade gourd stands in the center. Fine, golden patterns cover the gourd's surface.

Compared to the rapid dissipation of the past, this newly formed gourd remained for a full 45 minutes before slowly dissipating.

Chen Mu raised an eyebrow and summoned the gray stone door.

Heavenly Demon Armor: 9133/10000/Ninth Rank;

Yellow Springs Gourd: 11/10000/Eighth Tier.

"The Heavenly Demon Armor is indeed a bit lacking, but the Yellow Spring Gourd has entered a completely new stage."

"What a happy event!"

Ordinary Qi cultivators need to constantly try and fail, proceeding with extreme caution, and it can take decades or even centuries to succeed in cultivating spiritual treasures.

With the assistance of the Stone Gate, Chen Mu could master each Spirit Treasure Talisman once it was successfully refined, ensuring he wouldn't fail again. Furthermore, the Secret Technique: Spirit Treasure Pivot Chapter allowed his spirit to undergo a transformation, enhancing his control over the Spirit Treasure Talisman.

This is why the pace of cultivation has accelerated repeatedly.

We were trapped in Tianhe Cave, which wasted a lot of time.

However, since arriving at Zhifeng at the end of Jiufeng Mountain, in just half a year, he has already condensed the sixty-third spiritual treasure talisman, enabling the Yellow Spring Gourd Secret Technique to enter the eighth level.

"There are still two more layers of eighteen Yuan Talismans left. Maybe in a year or two, I'll be able to fully master them!"

Chen Mu became happier the more he thought about it.

"Hmm, during the last hunt for strange beasts, it seems we also caught a few colorful pheasants."

"That's a rare delicacy, let's cook it to celebrate."
