My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 785 Summoning God
Beachside wooden houses.

Chen Mu abruptly turned his gaze away from the Summoning God Diagram.

The second heartbeat returned to normal, and the unusual tremors within the divine embryo in the brow cavity ceased, as if nothing had ever happened.

Chen Mu frowned deeply; he didn't believe that what he had just seen was an illusion.

He introspected, listened intently, and finally summoned the stone gate to reflect his own image. After struggling for a while and finding nothing amiss, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"It doesn't seem like a bad thing." Chen Mu stared thoughtfully at the motionless stone door.

After a moment, he took a deep breath and looked again at the black and white ball of thread that resembled the summoning diagram.

Before long, the second heartbeat rhythm began to differ from the original heart rhythm.

This time, Chen Mu didn't look away and continued to stare at the Summoning God Diagram.

He still couldn't make sense of the originally messy black and white thread, but his second heart was beating more and more intensely.

"So, this summoning diagram wasn't meant for me at all, but for Second Heart?"

"To be precise, it's meant for the Yin-Yang worms that make up the second heart!" Chen Mu suddenly had a guess.

If that's the case, why is the Yin Spirit Embryo getting involved?
Chen Mu internally examines the secret point between his eyebrows.

At this moment, the Yin Spirit Embryo, as white and bright as a pearl, is beating rhythmically.

As time went on, the rhythm of the fetus's heartbeat became increasingly synchronized with the second heartbeat.

The moment the two vibrations completely merged into one, the divine embryo between the eyebrows shone brightly.

next moment.

Eight hidden acupoints suddenly appeared in various parts of his body.

"The nine orifices have returned to their proper places?!"

Chen Mu's eyes widened in surprise.

Chen Mu was no stranger to the nine secret points.

This was created one by one by him when he used the Kui Water Yin Thunder to stimulate his body.

Later, eight of them were separated by the River of Oblivion, forming the Yin Spirit Heavenly Demon Body. Only the secret aperture between the eyebrows remained attached to the original body, serving as the hub connecting the Heavenly Demon Body.

I never expected them to suddenly return.

That Yin-spirit Heavenly Demon Body...

Chen Mu hadn't finished thinking when

All nine acupoints, including the one between the eyebrows, vibrated simultaneously.

Countless silver threads emerged from the secret orifice, spreading rapidly, intertwining and weaving together to quickly form a net-like human shape, resembling the human nervous system.

At the same time, another vascular system built by the second heart also began to merge and resonate.

In just a few breaths, Chen Mu clearly felt that another body had appeared inside him.

"Possessed by a celestial demon?"

"The summoning diagram summoned a Yin Spirit Heavenly Demon form?!"

Chen Mu was extremely surprised.

He had returned to Yunzhou from the Underworld as a living god. However, he was imprisoned in the Divine Statue Cave due to the binding of the Divine Contract.

Later, a celestial demon took his place to guard the area, which allowed him to escape.

It has been more than ten years since then. Chen Mu was pleasantly surprised that a single painting could summon back the Heavenly Demon Body.

……

After calming down for a while, Chen Mu suddenly thought of a question.

With his celestial demon form returning, he had violated the agreement in the Investiture of the Gods, and the backlash would be dire...

Chen Mu's heart skipped a beat.

He immediately and carefully sensed himself, and almost instinctively activated the Nine Revolutions Dividing Tribulation Technique.

But after waiting for a long time, nothing happened.

"There was no thunderbolt from the blue, nor was there any burning inferno in my heart."

"Could it be that summoning living gods from the Divine Statue Cave using the Divine Summoning Diagram is not against the rules?"

"According to the scroll, the final level of the Underworld God Transformation is called the Great Zhou Heavenly God and Demon Transformation, which requires drawing the true meaning of gods and demons into the body."

"Could this so-called true meaning of gods and demons refer to the spirits of the dead reborn as gods?!"

Chen Mu was startled.

The living gods are spirits from the underworld who emerge from the River of Oblivion with innate ghostly markings.

The Underworld God Transformation uses the Yinming Insects to control the blood essence of gods and demons to transform himself; the blood essence also comes from the depths of the River of Oblivion.

The former is essentially a ghostly monster, while the latter's power is essentially a Yin-Yang worm.

The ghostly spirits and the yin insects are two sides of the same coin, and perhaps this is why they complement each other in some way.

"Directly summon a Yin spirit to enter your body, then forcibly devour and absorb it, thereby obtaining the innate ghost pattern divine power of the Yin spirit?" The more Chen Mu thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

"No wonder the Great Zhou Heavenly God and Demon Transformation is so difficult to refine." "The summoned Yin spirits won't obediently submit."

"If you're not strong enough to suppress the evil spirits, it's good if both sides are injured; otherwise, the evil spirits might even try to possess your body!"

"Luckily, my spirit clone is also a living god."

Chen Mu felt fortunate.

"So I've mastered the Great Zhou Heavenly Divine Demon Transformation? It doesn't seem any different." He observed the changes in himself again, but couldn't help scratching his head.

The moment the thought arose, the divine embryo between his brows and his second heart trembled together.
A gray mist rose around Chen Mu, and he disappeared from the spot, replaced by a bald young man with a fiery red flower decoration between his eyebrows.

With a casual gesture, he pointed to the ground, and the soft sand instantly turned into something as hard as rock, easily activating the Qi Refining Secret Technique of "Turning the Ground into Steel".

With another thought, he instantly transformed back into the unremarkable Qi cultivator with long hair and gray clothes.

Then, with a wave of his hand, black smoke billowed out, and a jet-black dragon covered with silver patterns quietly appeared outside the wooden house.

The dragon swam freely in mid-air, its enormous head gliding silently to the front of the wooden house. Its pair of scarlet eyes were level with Chen Mu, who stood on the wooden house's veranda.

"It is both a human and a spirit, and can switch between them at any time without affecting the activation of any secret techniques."

"What's this, some kind of duality between human and ghost?"

"Ha ha……"

Chen Mu twitched the corner of his mouth and looked at the Candle Dragon's Dharma Body outside the house.

"It is said that if a martial artist masters the Great Zhou Heavenly Divine Demon Transformation, he can obtain the strange supernatural powers of the corresponding gods and demons."

"And I can freely use the Yin Spirit Heavenly Demon Body Secret Technique Candle Dragon Transformation. If I were to say that I have mastered the Great Zhou Heavenly God and Demon Transformation."

“Even without the possession of the Heavenly Demon, I could still use the Yin Spirit Secret Technique before.”

"Then wasn't the Great Zhou Heavenly God and Demon Transformation just a complete waste of time?"

"Tsk!"

Undeterred, Chen Mu scrutinized the Candle Dragon's Dharma Body and finally discovered some differences.

"It seems more agile, and casting spells is smoother."

"Well... it's alright, I guess." Chen Mu smacked his lips and helplessly waved his hand to dispel the Candle Dragon's Dharma Body: "Forget it, being able to reclaim my Heavenly Demon Body is already a pleasant surprise, so I won't ask for anything more."

The Heavenly Demon Body is a clone he created, connected to him by their energy. Leaving it outside is always a potential hazard.

This world is full of secret techniques, and I myself possess the Nightmare Victory Spell, capable of injuring enemies from a distance. What if someone can use my demonic form to attack me?
Now that we've reclaimed our original form and merged into one, we've eliminated one weakness, haven't we?

……

After resting for two days, during which he helped Yuan Zhen transport a team of seventy or eighty Qi Refiners, Chen Mu went into seclusion again.

He noticed the difference from the very beginning.

This time, the condensation of the spiritual treasure talisman became surprisingly easy!
It used to take five and a half days to condense the first seven layers of sixty-three Yuan Talismans, but now it only took a little over four days to complete.

After spending another half day completing the sixty-fourth, sixty-fifth, and sixty-sixth Yuan Runes, Chen Mu began refining the sixty-seventh Yuan Rune.

This is a brand new rune; he had tried it three times before.

At the original pace, it would take at least two more periods of seclusion to possibly master it.

Unexpectedly, this attempt went remarkably smoothly.

The original talismans, piled up like a woven fabric, were like a wriggling fish in one's hand—strong, slippery, and impossible to hold.

Now, however, it is as easy as using one's own arm, and the innate Qi can be easily condensed and formed.

In just one day, the sixty-seventh Yuanfu was successfully condensed.

Chen Mu looked at the gray stone gate.

Yellow Springs Gourd: 4129/10000/Eighth Tier;

"One seclusion session yielded five or six hundred experience points; I've never seen anything like this before!"

"It's the form of a Yin Spirit Heavenly Demon!"

"It must be because the Heavenly Demon Body possessed him, increasing his spiritual power and reducing the difficulty of condensing spiritual treasure talismans!" Chen Mu suddenly realized.

Internal cultivation of spiritual treasures is not just about creating spiritual treasures; it is itself a form of cultivation.

Each cultivation session is a test of one's spirit. And the primordial energy that dissipates after a failure is used to nourish the body and spirit.

Each past failure was due not only to a lack of experience, but also to insufficient physical and spiritual strength.

Only by strengthening its foundation through repeated failures and setbacks can it go further.

"The Heavenly Demon Body is originally a part of me, and naturally contains my spirit."

“In the past, when the Heavenly Demon was outside, it was equivalent to having a portion of his spirit separated from him.”

"Now that the two are combined, their foundation has greatly increased, which will naturally accelerate the cultivation of the Yellow Spring Gourd."

"Ha ha!"

"Bai Xiaoqing really did send me something good!"

Chen Mu grinned and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
