I Am Grinding Experience in Another World

Dawn.

South of Jade Spring Mountain.

In the cave abode of Pill Treasure Pavilion, Chen Mu opened his eyes and awoke.

Despite feeling energetic, he lazily didn’t want to get up.

Pulling back the curtains, he sat up against the headboard, staring out the window and daydreaming.

The sun had just risen, and already Jade Spring Mountain was bustling with activity.

In the Administrative Affairs Institute below, people were coming in and leaving now and then.

Handsome men and beautiful women, stepping on flying kites, whooshing through the sky toward the horizon, quickly shrinking to tiny black dots.

Even though it wasn’t his first time seeing this, Chen Mu still found the sight marvelous.

He had been in Yunzhou for five or six years, but he had always been muddling along in the Lower Courtyard.

What he saw were all low-ranking disciples, busy with farming and hunting to earn White Jade Coins, all hurrying along with dusty faces.

They were even less stylish than the martial warriors of Da Liang, who high-flitted here and there.

"Indeed, they are Senior Brothers and Sisters from the Upper Court, brimming with the aura of immortals," Chen Mu sighed.

Although Eagle Grief Cliff was destroyed, the other five mountains including Jade Spring Mountain had been occupied by other courtyards.

The other courtyards were expanding their territories and urgently needed manpower.

The Senior Brothers and Sisters from Jilong Road’s Upper Court swarmed over at once.

Just as he was thinking, a dashing young man in a wide robe and luxurious black garments flew by his window on a flying kite.

His robe flapping, his black hair flying, he seemed as ethereal as an immortal, filling Chen Mu with intense envy.

"A Qi Cultivator should be like this!"

This was the image a high cultivator of the Dao should have! What about the Five Ghosts Possession? Big and clumsy, with clothes exploding at every turn. To the uninformed, it might seem like a heretical practice!

"I’ve got to condense my aperture quickly," Chen Mu thought to himself.

By that time, with Flying Escape there would be Longitudinal Rainbow Light, and in a fight there would be tricks of light and shadow, plus two magical techniques from the immortals.

Once he fought with someone, without moving his body or shaking his hands, with just a flick of his fingers he could knock someone out—how cool would that be!

Chen Mu was so excited at the thought that he threw off the thin quilt and jumped out of bed.

After hastily eating breakfast, he entered the Underground Secret Chamber with his heart full of anticipation to cultivate.

...

Five days later.

In the Underground Secret Chamber.

Chen Mu was sitting cross-legged on a soft couch.

Next to him, a wisp of green smoke from the incense burner in the small table next to him rose straight up.

Suddenly, a soft popping sound erupted from his body.

Two silver lines flowed around his brow, and a fist-sized secret aperture space suddenly appeared three inches below his navel.

An invisible aura burst forth from his body.

The straight green smoke was immediately bent.

Chen Mu looked at the gray wall in front of him.

Netherworld Grand Summary: 3/10000/Fourth Rank;

"I’ve done it!"

With a thought, the three nested hollow silver spheres inside the Jade Seed immediately began to spin rapidly.

His body was immediately enveloped in a White Jade light sphere.

Without exerting much effort, he floated three meters above the ground in an instant.

"With at most two more layers, this Longitudinal Rainbow Light will really take shape."

Five Ghosts Possession!

While suspended in mid-air, Chen Mu’s body swelled as if inflated.

In an instant, he transformed into a five-meter-tall strong man with bulging muscles.

Experience more on

His skin was indigo, his eyes blood-red, and silver light flowed between his eyebrows.

The dark smoke that previously swirled around his body had now turned into a mix of black and red, resembling freshly spewed lava from a volcanic vent. The air in the Secret Chamber felt scorched and dry.

He clenched his right fist lightly.

The air immediately emitted a bang.

The temperature of the black smoke rose, and its overall strength increased.

The best part was that he was still five meters tall and not further expanded.

"Not bad," Chen Mu nodded with satisfaction.

The Jade Seed expanded again, and his mana continued to increase, almost to the point where the fog condensed into water.

While he was pleased, he also couldn’t help feeling uneasy.

Old Ghost Sun was practicing the same Condensing Aperture Technique as him.

As his mana grew, could Old Ghost Sun’s mana be less?

Thinking of the other’s sharp Thunder Law, Chen Mu quickly took out the Shadow and Light Trick and recited the Spirit Nourishing Curse twice to calm his nerves.

"Perhaps it’s time to leave Jade Spring Mountain in a while."

The situation in East Ridge had become clear.

Jilong Road had completely steadied its footing.

The other few peaks were generally safe.

He was now not lacking in secret techniques or money, just a stable environment to cultivate and time.

Staying on Jade Spring Mountain always weighed heavily on his mind.

"The question is which peak to choose for my stay; I still need to give it some thought."

...

Several days later.

Outside Chen Mu’s cave dwelling.

Little bald Jia Tian stood beside a man-high bamboo basket, which contained a cleaned and gutted pig rabbit.

At the moment, his face was full of flattery, "Senior brother, Feather Spring Workshop charges twelve White Jade Coins for a hundred catties of pig rabbit meat, but I’ll only ask for ten."

"It’s so cheap, won’t you take another one?"

"Senior brother, once this chance is gone, there won’t be such a deal again."

Chen Mu cast a sidelong glance at him.

"Beat it!"

Eat so much, do you think I am a pig rabbit?

The one in front of me is enough to last me for three or four days.

"Every day these pig rabbits stay in the pen, I have to waste more White Jade Money." Jia Tian pleaded with a sorrowful face, "You have to help me, senior brother."

Chen Mu rolled his eyes.

"It costs you to keep them, but if I can’t finish eating them and they go bad, won’t that cost me money too?"

Hearing this, Jia Tian hesitated for a moment, then clenched his teeth and said, "If you’ll buy one more, I’ll give you two small Frostfall Talismans for free; they can freeze the meat and ensure it doesn’t spoil."

Small Frostfall Talisman? A talisman that can freeze and keep things fresh?

"You’re being so generous?" Chen Mu was skeptical.

Selling stock at a reduced price is understandable, but now you’re throwing in two talismans as well?

"I’ll lose even more holding onto it," Jia Tian forced a smile, "Fortunately, small Frostfall Talismans aren’t expensive; two of them aren’t even worth one White Jade Coin. I’ll just consider it a small loss."

"The longer those exotic beasts stay in the pens, the more I lose."

"Giving away some small Frostfall Talismans will actually help me lose less."

Chen Mu nodded in understanding.

It was a way of cutting losses immediately.

If only he had known, he wouldn’t have made this mistake to begin with.

"Alright," Chen Mu agreed.

He needed to consume over a hundred catties of meat every day to make Replenishing Origin Soup anyway.

Buying from Jia Tian, he could even save a few White Jade Coins.

"Thank you, senior brother!" Jia Tian immediately flashed his back teeth with a grin.

After sending Jia Tian away, Chen Mu stared at a palm-sized brown Leather Talisman in thought.

"I wonder if this thing could keep the Replenishing Origin Soup fresh."

He was still not proficient in the practice of making Rejuvenation Pills.

The Replenishing Origin Soup was still the main source of vital energy replenishment.

...

Three days later, Chen Mu carefully controlled a wisp of black smoke from his Spiritual Armor to drill into a brown wooden cup.

He successfully opened up the third Condensing Aperture in his body.

Not only did the range of Qi Forbidden Hundred Miles expand to thirty meters in a flash, but the burning ability of the black Spiritual Armor smoke also greatly increased, and its manipulation became more flexible and precise.

Within two breaths, steam was rising inside the cup, yet the wooden cup itself remained undamaged.

Chen Mu eagerly swallowed a big gulp of Replenishing Origin Soup.

But soon after, his expression turned to one of disappointment.

"I’ve underestimated the Replenishing Origin Soup after all."

The soup did not spoil, but its ability to replenish vital energy was gone.

"It’s within reason, I suppose," Chen Mu shrugged his shoulders.

It would have been too easy if things that attracted ghost soldiers could simply be preserved longer by freezing.

"However, it’s still possible to freeze some meat and store it." Chen Mu held the small Frostfall Talisman with a smile, thinking to himself.

Back on Eagle Grief Cliff, meat prices had soared nearly three times, and he had indeed spent a lot of undue money.

Now, with the small Frostfall Talismans, he could stockpile a large amount.

Even if he moved to another mountain and happened to face a shortage of supplies, he wouldn’t lack Replenishing Origin Soup for cultivation for a while.

"The little bald kid seems to have a lot of unsold exotic beasts."

"Every day they sit, he must be losing a nice amount of money."

"What was the price again? Forget it, I won’t haggle with him. I’ll take a small loss and give him nine White Jade Coins for a hundred catties of meat."

"After all, we’ve met, I should lend him a hand."

"Ha ha!"
