My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 786 Migration
Inside the wooden cabin by the sea, Chen Mu awoke from his meditation.

Inside the jade, a pale yellow gourd floated at the center. After a while, the exquisite gourd transformed back into primordial energy and dispersed into the body.

"After a month of seclusion, I successfully crafted two spiritual treasure talismans, nearly doubling my previous speed."

"If we keep practicing like this, the Yellow Springs Gourd will be able to reach the ninth level in less than two months!"

Chen Mu got up and walked out of the wooden house, supporting his waist and kicking his legs, his face full of smiles.

……

Three days later, late at night, the full moon hung high in the sky.

Five paper ghost figures swung on a swing, clinging to the white soul-guiding lantern on the eaves, their clear, eerie laughter echoing all around.

Chen Mu lay on the rocking chair, gazing at the stars in the sky, lost in thought.

In the past, when practicing the Yellow Springs Gourd Technique, a single retreat would last only six or seven days, and I would rest for one or two days after each retreat.

This time, the Yin Spirit Heavenly Demon Body merged, greatly increasing his spiritual power and indirectly reducing the difficulty of the Yellow Spring Gourd Technique. Chen Mu became addicted to gaining experience and went into seclusion for a whole month.

His progress in condensing the Yuan Fu was encouraging, but he was also quite exhausted. For the past three days, he had either been lying in a daze or going out to sea to fish.

Time passed slowly, and at a certain moment, the edge of the moon in the sky glowed with golden light. The imperial nectar, like a gentle spring rain, arrived as scheduled, and Chen Mu couldn't help but come back to his senses.

"They look so alike."

"I wonder what the difference is between the Emperor's Dew produced by the Plague Immortal Technique and the Bewildering Heavenly Emperor's Dew."

Chen Mu got up and went to the edge of the corridor, looking at the golden drizzle and muttering to himself.

"The Emperor's Elixir produced by the Plague Immortal Technique can nourish the spirit and soul, while the Bewitching Heavenly Emperor's Elixir can also stimulate the bloodline of exotic beasts to undergo a metamorphosis and revert to their ancestral form."

"I just don't know if this mysterious Heavenly Emperor's Dew is also useful for Qi cultivators."

Despite his curiosity, Chen Mu dared not rashly devour and investigate.

After all, it's something from outer space, a mysterious object dropped from the heavens; who knows if there are any traps inside?

"It's safe to say there are definitely hidden dangers involved!"

"The three Dao Ancestors are leading Qi Refiners to attack the Misty Heaven. It would be impossible if the enemy didn't plant mines in this Emperor's Dew."

Chen Mu subconsciously took a step back.

Despite his previous collection of imperial fluids to stimulate the awakening of demons, he himself did not want to get involved with any of this stuff.

"If you don't think about the possible conspiracy behind this Emperor's Dew, this thing is actually quite beautiful."

Chen Mu looked up at the sky, happily admiring the golden drizzle.

A quarter of an hour later, the imperial fluids did not stop as usual.

Just as he was wondering, countless bright fireballs emerged from the golden moon. They trailed long flames and fell to all parts of the earth, like a grand meteor shower.

"This is...something's happened!"

Chen Mu tensed up.

……

It took a full half hour for the flow of imperial dew to completely cease. Countless enormous fireballs fell across the earth.

Inside his mind, the talisman suddenly began to vibrate.

Yuanduyuan?
Chen Mu immediately contacted the talisman seed, which was tens of thousands of miles away.

"Is the Mysterious Demon God inside the fireball?"

"The chaos in Yizhou is escalating; should we withdraw all our forces?"

Fortunately, those fireballs didn't land on the seaside camp!
Chen Mu suddenly realized what was happening and couldn't help but feel relieved.

After a brief moment of reflection, he immediately activated the Gates of Hell and headed to the heart of Yizhou to retrieve people.

Previously, in order to search for as many Qi cultivators scattered throughout Yizhou as possible, the disciples of Jiufeng Mountain were divided into several teams.

When the evacuation notice was received, most of them were scattered in a distant place.

It took Chen Mu and Yuan Zhen three days to find and bring back all the disciples.

Fortunately, they didn't encounter any of the mysterious celestial demons that descended from the sky, and everyone returned safely to their seaside camp.

After returning the Zhu Yu sword to Chen Mu, Yuan Zhen immediately returned to the Jiufeng Hall on the mountainside and used a secret technique to contact the Huangquan Sect.

Not long after, Tang Zhimu also came to visit.

"With such a huge change, the Upper House should send someone to help us now, right?" Tang Zhimu said hopefully in front of the thatched hut.

Chen Mu nodded slightly.

When the extraterrestrial demons invaded Haizhou, the Thousand Machine Sect did exactly the same thing.

Sect Leader Lü Yue appeared with his men, gathering their strength to systematically eradicate the rampaging demons. The situation in Yizhou was likely similar.

"There's bound to be a fierce battle then," Chen Mu said with a smirk.

Fortunately, I have now achieved a solid foundation in Dao, have magical treasures by chance to protect me, the Candle Dragon Transformation technique to kill enemies, and the Heavenly Demon Armor to protect me. I am no longer the little Qi Refiner I once was.

Even if I were to personally go into battle, I would surely... be able to... probably protect myself... right?

Tsk!
"In the end, he was still a bit lacking in skill."

"If I were to cultivate my primordial spirit, becoming invulnerable to all magic and immortal, why would I be afraid of these insignificant celestial demons!" Chen Mu snorted to himself.

We can only wait for Yuan Zhen to come out of the pass and find out the situation in advance.

It would be best to find a job that isn't too dangerous.

Hmm, deploying Taoist soldiers to various locations around the Gates of Hell would be a good idea.

……

In the evening, before Chen Mu could go to Yuan Zhen to inquire about the news, Yuan Zhen summoned him to the beach.

Also arriving at the same time were Hu Shenglin, Tu Tangzhimu, and others.

All Qi cultivators above the Condensation Realm level from Jiufeng Mountain were gathered together.

Then Yuan Zhen took out a fist-sized white jade ball covered with golden patterns and asked everyone to pour their magic power into it.

As the pillar of magical light appeared, the jade sphere vanished into the void, replaced by a white jade gate as tall as a seven- or eight-story building.

Tianmen?

Can it use the power of the stars in the heavens to travel hundreds of thousands of miles and instantly send a person to the Heavenly Gate of the outer stars?
Is the Yellow Spring Sect planning to draw soldiers from outer stars to suppress the Heavenly Demon?
"By order of the Luofu Dao Ancestor, all Qi Refiners under the Yellow Springs Sect shall immediately proceed to the Misty Heaven," Yuan Zhen solemnly declared.

Isn't this right?

Not only did they not send anyone to exterminate the demons, they also dragged all the Qi cultivators to the Mystic Heaven.

What about Yizhou?
Should we simply abandon them and let the celestial demons wreak havoc?
"This arrangement is to concentrate our forces and quickly capture the Mystic Heaven."

“Once we destroy their lair, these demons that have descended from the sky will become like water without a source, making them much easier to wipe out,” Yuan Zhen explained.

However, this would likely result in heavy casualties among ordinary mortals and local monsters in Yizhou and Bazhou.

Could those bigwigs who make the decisions not have imagined this situation?
Chen Mu's heart sank.

"We can only obey the decree of the Dao Ancestor," Yuan Zhen said helplessly, shaking his head.

Actually... there's no need to follow it so strictly.

Chen Mu nodded in agreement, but in his heart he was wondering whether he should run away.

"Fellow Daoist Chen doesn't want to go to the Outer Heavens?" Yuan Zhen looked at Chen Mu, feeling that something was off about Chen Mu's expression.

He had heard from his subordinates that this Fellow Daoist Chen seemed to be quite proficient in the art of escaping.

Of course, I don't want to go.

The thought of fighting a war, especially one fought on someone else's territory, is fraught with danger.

"Fellow Daoist is joking. I am a Dao soldier of the Yellow Springs Sect. I have no choice but to go," Chen Mu said, feigning helplessness as he spread his hands.

That's not necessarily true.

Luo Ding, who held the decree and contract, was killed by this fellow Daoist Chen, so the Daoist military decree is not so reliable.

Perhaps they possess a magical artifact imbued with the power of the Dao Ancestor to withstand the backlash from the contract.

Yuan Zhen smiled and didn't press the matter further. Instead, he offered words of comfort to the crowd.

"With a massive number of Qi Refiners gathering in the Mystic Realm, and three Dao Ancestors personally overseeing it, the Mystic Realm may not be as dangerous as we imagine."

"On the contrary, staying in Yizhou would leave them isolated and helpless, and they would be more likely to encounter misfortune."

"The path of Qi cultivation does indeed require seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune, but it also cannot lack courage and diligence."

"Crisis is a crisis, but it also presents both danger and opportunity."

"The three Dao Ancestors, who are usually elusive, have all personally intervened. The opportunities within the Mysterious Heaven must be immense."

"Perhaps this will allow you all to take another step forward on your path."

The group, who were initially a little uneasy, gradually calmed down, and a few even looked eager to try.

Although Chen Mu didn't care about opportunities, he knew that going to the Outer Heavens with the others was more suitable than staying alone in Yizhou.

The Divine Command Token in his hand can only be used for one year. Even though his cultivation speed has greatly improved, he still can't guarantee that he will be able to master the Yellow Springs Gourd in one year.

If you don't go to the outer heavens with the crowd, the celestial energy will be insufficient, and your cultivation will stagnate.

Even if one manages to master it by chance, one still needs to consider the path of further cultivation.

If they run away this time, it will probably be difficult for them to infiltrate the Yellow Springs Sect again.

Moreover, just as Yuan Zhen said, the entire Huangquan Sect went to Tianwaitian. Yizhou's forces were weakened, and staying behind might indeed be more dangerous.

"What's wrong with this world?"

"Can't people just live a peaceful life?" Chen Mu was very unhappy.

Looking back on his more than 20 years of Qi cultivation, he realized that wherever he went, trouble would follow.

Is he really cursed by bad luck?

Do not!
I'm absolutely fine!

Something's definitely wrong with this world!

Chen Mu looked completely confident.
