I Am Grinding Experience in Another World

For three consecutive days, Chen Mu had been flipping through Liu Hongyang’s cultivation miscellaneous notes. With the help of the Forbidden Law Jade Slips left behind from practicing with the other party, the outlines of three talismans finally began to slowly emerge within the Jade Seed.

Chen Mu exhaled a breath and looked towards the grey wall.

Minor Three Talents Harmony Light Prohibition Method: 15/10000;

"The three talismans are the foundation. By continuously combining and accumulating them, one achieves invisibility and concealment as if merging with the light and dust."

"Hmm... if the arrangement order changes, could there be other effects?"

"So, the Light Law Prohibition is an expression of these three talismans, but it is not the limit of these three talismans?"

"Wonderful..."

Chen Mu came to understand the profound subtleties of the prohibition, but also felt the complexity and difficulty of the prohibition.

According to Liu Hongyang’s description, there were eighteen foundational talismans just for the Minor Three Talents Method Prohibition.

And as for the Minor All Heaven’s Stars Prohibition, which existed as the summary of the Minor Three Talents Method Prohibition, there were as many as one hundred and eight foundational talismans.

Just the thought of the combinations within made Chen Mu’s scalp tingle. Continue reading stories on

"No wonder there are so few people in the Hundred Workshops Hall who understand prohibitions."

"It’s not just the lack of time and energy to study, but more likely the lack of intellect."

Chen Mu glanced at the experience on the grey wall and nodded with satisfaction.

"Turns out I do have some brains, huh heh..."

"No, that’s not right. I am quite intelligent!"

...

One month later.

A simple fence had been hastily erected in front of the wooden hut, forming a small courtyard.

On the eastern side of the courtyard, several ridges were cultivated to grow a variety of wild seasonal vegetables.

There was a deep well at the end of the field, which he had deepened to the underground water veins and spirit springs using Point Ground into Steel.

A stone path ran through the middle, leading from the courtyard gate to the steps of the wooden house.

The western side of the courtyard wasn’t much tended to; it had only been flattened into a plain by Han Mu using Qi Forbidden Hundred Miles.

At this moment, Chen Mu stood in the middle of the western open ground. Centered around him, the hard clay on the ground in five places quickly softened. Then, like an army of ants, it continuously spiraled upwards, climbing and accumulating until five stone pillars, each half a person tall and as thick as a watermelon, appeared.

The pillars formed a circle, with approximately a meter’s width between them. Chen Mu took a satisfied glimpse and looked at one of the sections on the grey wall.

Minor Three Talents Harmony Light Prohibition Method: 3665/10000;

After a continuous month of arduous practice, the three foundational talismans had been fully delineated within the Jade Seed, and he was also getting proficient with the basic arrangement and combination of the prohibition.

The five stone pillars beside him were carriers he prepared for the Light Law Prohibition, and he wanted to try and practice with it.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Mu spread his hands.

Invisible forces of Exotic Energy materialized out of thin air, causing a faint distortion in the light around them.

Next, the talismans made of Exotic Energy began to interweave into a net around each of the stone pillars, gradually forming a web and enveloping the pillars within.

As the last talisman was in place, the network of talismans suddenly tightened, slamming into the surface of the stone pillars with a bang.

Chips of stone flew, and hot, crimson lines appeared on the stone pillars.

The lines grew more numerous and the temperature rose higher until, at last, the entire pillars turned red-hot!

"It’s done!"

Chen Mu withdrew his hands, satisfactorily taking a turn inside the circle of the five pillars.

"Indeed, I did a good job, the patterns are really nice to look at."

Cheerfully admiring each pillar in turn, Chen Mu walked out of the enclosure formed by the five stone pillars.

Looking around, he immediately noticed five paper men neatly sitting in front of the porch, gazing intently at the stone pillars with a strong sense of curiosity on their paper faces.

Chen Mu couldn’t help but chuckle, "Come on, give it a try."

The five paper men immediately sprang up and darted into the midst of the stone pillars.

With a wave of his hand, Chen Mu sent a spell towards the starting node of the prohibition, "Activate!"

Hum!

All five stone pillars trembled at once, a strong wind spread out from them, kicking up a cloud of dust and debris.

Chen Mu watched the Five Ghosts Paper Man excitedly.

However, after a good long while, the five little paper men just stood foolishly in the middle of the pillars without any change.

"That’s not right."

Chen Mu scratched his head.

"The talismans should be arranged like this, there’s no mistake..."

Undaunted, he cast another spell towards the pillars to activate them.

Bang!

The five stone pillars suddenly exploded into pieces.

Caught off guard, the flying dust immediately covered him, leaving him with a face full of grey.

...

Another half-month passed.

Under Chen Mu’s diligent practice, the experience for the Minor Three Talents Harmony Light Prohibition Method had breached the five-thousand mark.

Eagerly, he proceeded to the open ground on the western side of the residence.

He created five stone pillars using Point Ground into Steel.

Mana imprinted with forbidden runes.

He tossed the five paper men into the middle of the stone pillars.

Chen Mu, adept in executing the opening spell, was brimming with confidence at this moment.

Bang!

What replied to him was a sky full of dust and smoke.

He stood beside, covered in dust and disheveled, while the five little paper men, holding hands, merrily danced in circles among the five damaged pillars.

Chen Mu’s eyes bulged with fury at once.

"Dance, dance, dance, what the hell are you dancing for?"

"Scram at once!"

After shooing away the paper men, Chen Mu carefully recalled his previous actions.

"Did I practice incorrectly?"

"Impossible!"

"Hmm... it must be the grey walls misleading me."

"Right, and the Five Ghosts Paper Man!"

"They are, after all, the Five Ghosts, full of yin energy reaching to the heavens, definitely clashing with the Forbidden Law, and that caused the collapse of the prohibition!" Chen Mu was utterly convinced, lifting his head high and striding back to his room.

He decided he wouldn’t come out of seclusion until his experience reached over eight thousand.

...

Day turned to night, time trickled by slowly.

With various edifices being erected, the once-deserted valley bustled with life, and more and more people arrived at the Gan River Lower Courtyard.

Chen Mu was still hiding in his little wooden hut, grinding for experience with his head down.

Another half-month passed.

Thirty meters underground, with a ceiling five meters high, as large as two bedrooms, was a secret chamber. At the edge of the walls, eight thick, brown stone pillars that required two people to encircle them stretched up to the ceiling.

Carved black indentations covered the surface like engravings, and an invisible, intangible force converged, enveloping the entire secret chamber within it.

Chen Mu surfaced from the ground and activated Truthful Listening.

In his perception, a huge boulder had taken the place where the secret chamber used to be.

He had once investigated Liu Hongyang’s Evil God altar, and the feedback then was exactly this state.

"It’s really successful this time! Haha..."

...

On the porch of the wooden hut, by the west-side window.

Chen Mu was sitting at a square table, leaning against the window.

In the middle of the table was the dark Primordial Furnace, with bubbling steam rising and a thick, spicy meat aroma spreading all around.

Next to the stove, over a dozen round plates were filled with vegetables, meat, and various candied fruits and preserves.

Chen Mu picked up, with his thumb and middle finger, aiming at one of the round plates that held a clean, chunk of fat-marbled Exotic Beast Meat Ball.

In the next moment, he flicked his fingers, and a dense flurry of mournful green Qi Blades flew out from between them.

Thwack!

Under the Triple Yin Slaying Demon Technique, the large pieces of fresh meat were sliced into thin slices as thin as a cicada’s wings.

Qi Forbidden Hundred Miles immediately gathered them up, one by one, and sent them into the Primordial Furnace to be blanched.

Once cooked, they instantly flew out, rolled in the dipping sauce, and then floated steadily to the edge of Chen Mu’s mouth.

Chen Mu swallowed it in one gulp, and with a push of his tongue, it instantly melted.

"Mmm... satisfying!"

Chen Mu squinted his eyes, his body sweating profusely from the spicy stimulus.

It had been two months since he arrived at the Gan River Lower Courtyard.

Aside from his daily Condensing Aperture Lightning Strikes, he had spent all his time leveling up his Three Talents Method Prohibition. Today, he finally managed to successfully conceal the Exquisite Jade Plate.

"Even if Mo Wuzhou were right in front of me, my Primordial Energy would definitely not be detected by him."

As he was about to enjoy a piece of candied fruit, he suddenly saw ripples appear out of nowhere on the open ground to the west of the courtyard.

Hum!

The air trembled lightly, and a delicate white jade toad abruptly materialized.

It was motionless and silent as a stone statue, just staring at him with its big bulging eyes.

Chen Mu: "..."

"I mean, how on earth did you find this place?" he asked, utterly perplexed.

Ever since he arrived at the Gan River Lower Courtyard, he hadn’t stepped outside, fearing an encounter with Mo Wuzhou.

He hadn’t heard of the toad possessing any talent for searching or tracking either.

How could it appear right before him with such precision?

"Croak."

"What? My place is so full of Primordial Energy it’s nearly impossible not to see it?"

Chen Mu was stupefied right then and there.

All my hard work for two months... all for nothing?!

Chen Mu’s face turned red with vexation.
