My experience of grinding in another world

Chapter 798 Spiritual Eye
After a busy two weeks, Renzi Camp gradually returned to calm.

The wounded soldiers have been properly resettled.

The white clouds that enveloped the surroundings expanded outwards, and the damaged Five Banners were being slowly repaired.

Its spiritual light has enhanced its ability to exorcise evil and remove poison, so the Taoist soldiers who are lightly injured no longer need Chen Mu to use the Plague Immortal Technique to remove poison.

If you stay inside the clouds for a long time, the fog will dissipate completely.

Previously, Jiang Daojun had given him orders, so he had to multitask, working with the Giant Spirit God to remove the poison and heal the wounds.

Things have stabilized for the time being, and I can finally relax a bit.

Early that morning, in the corner of the Renzi Camp, inside the Qingyu Immortal Abode.

Chen Mu was lying in a rocking chair, looking at the undulating mountains in the distance and admiring the lush greenery.

Wu Jie, sitting in a floating wheelchair, arrived at Renzi Camp and found Chen Mu.

After not seeing each other for several days, the dejected look on the other person's face disappeared, and instead, he was radiant and full of energy.

"Fellow Daoist, what good thing have you encountered?" Chen Mu stood up and asked curiously.

He was also wondering about the other party's intentions.

"Today, the Xuan Yuan Palace issued a notice stating that for anyone who exchanges for restorative pills or talismans to repair deficiencies, Daoist Jiang is willing to cover half of the Dao merit required," Wu Jie said cheerfully.

Jiangmen Daojun took the initiative to use his Daoist powers to heal the wounded Daoist soldiers under his command?

Is there such a good thing?

Chen Mu immediately smiled and cupped his hands in greeting: "Jiang Daojun is generous, congratulations Fellow Daoist Wu!"

Wu Jie nodded, somewhat excitedly.

"I will soon be exchanging for the Jade Void Talisman to reshape my limbs, but this will consume a lot of my vital energy and essence. I earnestly request your assistance, fellow Daoist." He looked at Chen Mu with a solemn expression.

"These are the remains of monsters I specially collected. Please accept them, fellow Daoist." Wu Jie used his magic to make the wooden box on his lap float into the air. Its lid opened automatically, revealing a box full of mustard seed talismans.

So, it's taken a liking to my Soul-Seizing and Rejuvenating Technique?

Chen Mu raised an eyebrow and glanced at the wooden box that had floated in front of him.

Assuming each talisman stores 500 jin of exotic beast meat, this box of 50 or 60 mustard seed talismans would contain at least 20,000 to 30,000 jin of monster corpses.

This is no small amount; it must have taken a lot of effort to collect it from the other camps.

It's not that I can't take action, it's just...

"My secret technique is merely a side method; it can replenish essence, but it lacks purity. Fellow Daoist, this concerns the crucial matter of limb regeneration; what if..."

"It's alright." Wu Jie shook his head indifferently.

"The Jade Void Talisman has the ability to remove impurities and retain the essence, and for this reason, the talisman consumes a lot of vital energy."

"Although the secret method of replenishing blood, qi and essence in your cultivation is complex, the quantity is exceptionally abundant."

"The two working together are just right." His chubby face was full of smiles, clearly indicating that he had planned this all along.

The Haotian Treasure Record does contain high-grade elixirs for nourishing the vital energy and strengthening the foundation, but those require a great deal of Daoist cultivation.

Chen Mu only wanted the monster corpses that were useless to others.

In comparison, this place naturally offers better value for money.

Okay... then.

If you're not afraid of problems, then I'm not afraid either.

Chen Mu nodded slightly and accepted the box of mustard seed talismans.

"I see someone has set up defensive spells around the perimeter. Does Daojun intend to stay here permanently?" He took the opportunity to inquire about the camp's information.

After more than half a month of garrisoning, Wufangqi gradually recovered, but the entire camp showed no signs of leaving.

"Hey, don't let this unassuming island fool you, it's actually quite special." Wu Jie said mysteriously, "I overheard the other camp leaders talking about how if we can hold onto this island, Jiang Daojun will definitely make the list!"

On the list?

The Investiture of the Gods?!

The Investiture of the Gods that allows a Primordial Spirit Dao Lord to advance further?!

Is this little island beneath my feet really that special?

"Otherwise, why would Daojun help us heal our injuries?" Wu Jie chuckled.

"With this flying island, Dao cultivation is no longer worth mentioning to a Dao Lord."

"On the contrary, intact Dao soldiers can help Dao Lord guard the flying island, which is more useful."

No wonder.

Chen Mu nodded in realization.

“Fellow Daoist’s Ren-character camp is quite important. I believe it won’t be long before Daoist Lord makes a move,” Wu Jie said with a smile.

……

Sure enough, not long after Wu Jie left, a group of Taoist soldiers in armor arrived at the Renzi Camp.

Those were Daojun's personal guards, always by his side.

They sent Chen Mu a large quantity of precious medicines and talismans for healing and recovery, and also specially transferred hundreds of Taoist soldiers who had mastered healing secrets to join the Ren-character camp.

He sent a large amount of Taoist cultivation materials, along with a decree from the Daoist Lord, instructing him to continue his efforts and heal the Daoist soldier's injuries as soon as possible.

My own "Ren" battalion has truly become a battalion of wounded soldiers.

Chen Mu received the various personnel and supplies with a strange expression.

Oh well, the wounded soldiers' camp it is, I've done these kinds of jobs before anyway.

Moreover, with hundreds of skilled medical soldiers as his helpers, he could finally extricate himself and concentrate on his cultivation. Chen Mu pondered to himself, a gray stone gate phantom appearing before his eyes.

Yellow Springs Gourd: 5329/10000/Ninth Tier;

"I've gained more than half the experience, just a few thousand more. It won't be long before I can completely master the Yellow Springs Gourd!" He was thrilled, his face beaming with joy.

……

In the center of Mingling Island, beside a small lake.

Jiangmen stood in front of the thick, sturdy tree covered in saplings, his face beaming with an unstoppable smile.

The tree's canopy was so large it blocked out the sky, yet its aura was ordinary, as if it were just a common tree.

But Jiangmen was absolutely certain that there was a spiritual eye of heaven and earth residing within this large tree.

It is as small as a mustard seed, yet it contains a vast and open space.

Previously, the monsters on the island had used the power of this Spirit Eye Cave to pull him into that illusory realm where reality and illusion were indistinguishable.

As a result, more than half of the Dao soldiers were killed or wounded, and he himself suffered damage to his essence due to repeatedly using the Blood Rebirth Technique.

"As long as we control the Spirit Eye, all the losses will be worthwhile!" Jiangmen stared eagerly at the big tree.

This invasion of the Mystic Heaven was preordained by the Dao Ancestor. Whoever could refine and master the Mystic Heaven's Spiritual Eye would have their name inscribed on the Investiture of the Gods.

The Investiture of the Gods was created by the three Dao Ancestors of Chunyang Dao, Luofu Dao, and Tianhe Dao, and contains the Daoist principles of heaven and earth.

With its guidance, one can correctly and quickly comprehend the true nature and meaning of gods and demons.

It can save hundreds or even thousands of years of painstaking work, allowing one to develop a powerful avatar much earlier.

In the end, it is said that it can even help the clone and the original form merge into one, and the true spirit is expected!
"I must never let anyone know that I have found the Spirit Eye." A cold glint flashed in his eyes.

Although there is a contract stipulating that they cannot attack each other, there are ways to circumvent the contract.

I am not considered a core member of Luofu Dao. Those direct descendants of the Dao Ancestor may have treasures bestowed by the Dao Ancestor to bear the backlash of the contract.

To go even further, it's not impossible that they might take the risk of stealing someone else's spiritual eye!

"The island must be sealed off, cut off from both inside and outside. No messages can be sent out, and no one can go out!" He looked at the Five Banners beside him, which had been repaired, his face cold and stern.

……

time flies.

Several months have passed in the blink of an eye.

The Five Banners were completely restored, and the entire Mingling Island was shrouded in white mist.

The soldiers of each battalion were stationed around the islands and lakes.

Every day, different Taoist soldiers fly and patrol in the sky, keeping watch in all directions.

In the southeast of the island, outside the Renzi Camp, there is a bustling crowd, a small market that has spontaneously formed.

Most of the Dao soldiers were at the second level of cultivation, while the majority were Yuanfu Qi Refiners and Dongzhen Heavenly Demon Daoists.

These people cannot fast for long periods of time and still need to eat and drink.

Mingling Island stretches for twenty or thirty miles, covering a considerable area. Many Dao soldiers enclosed some land and began planting spiritual herbs and raising exotic beasts.

The unique environment of the Mystic Heaven seems to be very suitable for the growth of exotic beasts.

The colorful pheasant, which was originally only the size of a basketball, has now grown to more than twice its original size, as if it had been inflated. Moreover, despite its increased size, its meat remains tender and juicy.

Every time Chen Mu finished his seclusion, he would come to this small market to buy one to satisfy his craving.

……

Jade Abode.

Five ghosts moved mountains, black smoke shrouded the colorful pheasant.

In just a few breaths, the colorful pheasant had completed a series of processing steps, including plucking feathers, removing entrails, bleeding, and cleaning.

After years of practice, Chen Mu has become increasingly proficient in the Five Ghosts Moving Mountain Technique.

Following its functions as a robot vacuum cleaner, dishwasher, and garbage disposal, the Five Ghosts Moving Mountains technique has now added the ability to remove feathers and scales from food.

Looking at the clean, brightly colored pheasant, Chen Mu was very pleased with himself.

"If the founder of this technique knew of my ingenious application of it, he would surely be extremely pleased."

He looked completely certain.

An unknown patriarch: "..."

If I had known this would happen, I should have kept this secret technique buried in my head!
……

After meal.

Chen Mu lay down in the rocking chair by the door, holding a gourd of spirit-nourishing wine, and stared blankly at the five paper ghost figures swinging on the wind chimes by the door.

With a slight thought, the phantom image of a gray stone gate appeared before his eyes.

Yellow Springs Gourd: 8967/10000/Ninth Tier;

The island of Mingling was calm and peaceful. The Renzi Battalion was a battalion of wounded soldiers and did not need to participate in patrol and guard duties.

Chen Mu now has plenty of free time to cultivate.

The surge in spiritual energy brought about by the return of the Heavenly Demon Body, the assistance of the Life and Death Seal cultivated in the Spiritual Treasure Cardinal Chapter, and the support from the feedback of the Gray Stone Gate all contributed to the rapid progress of the Yellow Springs Gourd Technique.

"Take a few more days off this time and completely relax your tense mind."

"Next time I go into seclusion, I'll try to max out my experience in one go and completely complete the construction of the Yellow Springs Gourd."
