Since Gray Wall acknowledges the Spirit Armor Technique, it means that someone has practiced it before, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
"It just costs a little food." Chen Mu curled his lips.
He finally figured out that the culprit for the huge increase in appetite was the Yun Shen Ling Jia Technique.
"Fortunately, it's not completely without benefits." The Spirit Armor Technique consumes a lot of energy, but it also gave him an incredibly strong body.
"Otherwise, I might not be able to defeat Dong Cheng." Chen Mu was thankful.
It was precisely because of the body transformed by the Cloud Mirage Spirit Armor Technique that he was able to frequently activate the Five Ghosts to Move Mountains, destroy the Spirit Light Talisman, and kill Dong Cheng quickly.
"The spiritual light talisman... is it similar to the spiritual light of the noble family's protective body?"
"Use talisman paper to imitate the spiritual light of the sensing realm and gain powerful protection in advance?"
Chen Mu thought silently and couldn't help but sigh: "I still know too little about this world."
He missed Jiejia a little.
If the old man were here, he might be able to answer his questions.
Ding!
A crisp sound interrupted Chen Mu's thoughts.
Zhuang Fu, who had been talking incessantly just now, immediately stopped talking, stood up calmly, and strode out of the bamboo forest courtyard.
The fifteen-day preaching in the seminary officially ended.
……
On the northern slope of Tongtianfang, on the east side of the lower courtyard building complex, there is a two-story courtyard.
Taoist Lin Su with thick eyebrows sat at the head of the main hall with his eyes closed, resting with an expressionless face.
He held a white jade coin in his right hand, turning it over on his fingers from time to time.
As the white jade turned, fluorescent dots would occasionally light up.
At this time, a strong man in black tights strode into the main hall.
He clasped his fists and bowed: "All in charge!"
"Speak." Lin Su said calmly with his eyes closed.
"The Sutra Transmission Institute said that the marks of Dong Cheng and the others have disappeared."
"Either they were removed by someone, or they are already dead."
"After processing inside Dong Cheng's house, the clues were cut off."
"Several lower-court disciples who followed Dong Cheng around also disappeared on the same day."
"We investigated the interpersonal relationships of these lower house disciples, but found nothing."
"Dong Cheng has been practicing in Tongtianfang Residence for the past three months."
"The only unusual behavior was that he asked someone to buy a batch of white-lined ground spirit rats half a month ago."
"We have inquired from many sources, but we have not found any information about the group of earth spirit rats. The clues have been interrupted again."
Lin Su's hand that was playing with the white jade coin suddenly paused and he slowly opened his eyes.
"Dong Cheng often sets up traps to cheat new disciples who join the lower house, buying low and selling high to make a profit."
"His disappearance at this time must be related to this year's lower house disciples."
"Go check, check them one by one."
"All new lower house disciples must not be left out."
The sturdy man's scalp suddenly went numb. This workload...
He secretly glanced at Lin Su who closed his eyes again.
The strong man could only clasp his fists helplessly.
"Yes."
……
At the foot of the short mountain, there are rice fields with yellow buds.
Billowing black smoke rolled across the fields.
Chen Mu walked slowly among the fields.
The second-level planting technique is fully activated, carefully watering each yellow rice plant and fertilizing it independently.
He wanted to collect more yellow sprout rice to store in the cellar. After a batch of them were destroyed by the white-lined ground spirit rats, Chen Mu had to take better care of them.
Even with the help of the Five Ghost Bag, this delicate operation still took him more than an hour.
Returning to the courtyard on the low mountain, Chen Mu sat under the wooden shed to rest.
He picked up a book from the low table and read it silently.
These were the class notes he took from memory every day when he went home while attending lectures.
“Taking a bath to calm your mind and burning incense to focus your spirit are ways to increase the attraction of God’s will.”
"If the concentration of earth spirit energy around you is high enough, it seems to be able to increase external pressure, forcing the spirit to converge inward and speed up the unity." Chen Mu suddenly realized.
"No wonder my proficiency improves faster near the wellhead."
"It would be great if I could go to the upper house to practice." Chen Mu sighed.
The vitality there is rich, so practicing there will definitely be twice as effective with half the effort.
"pity……"
"Luckily I have a proficiency cheat."
"Once I gain some experience, maybe I can even hang out in the upper house for a couple of days!" Chen Mu thought happily.
"I need to get a copy of the Jade Seed Secret Technique and practice it."
To enhance the attraction of divine intention, he has tranquilizing pills.
To increase external pressure, he has a well containing earth spiritual energy.
One more jade seed secret technique is needed to speed up the integration of spirit and soul.
……
After lunch, Chen Mu took out all the white jade coins and checked them one by one.
"There are already fifty-four?!" Chen Mu was surprised.
Shang Huan has been involved in reselling for so long, but his entire fortune is less than thirty coins.
Chen Mu has been in Jilong Road Lower House for half a year, but his savings have exceeded Shang Huan's.
"If we increase the shipment volume of Tranquilizing Pills, we can earn five to ten more pills every month." Chen Mu thought with a little excitement.
"Forget it, what if it attracts snooping!" Chen Mu quickly came to his senses.
Safety first!
Of course, Shang Huan and the bald strong man also contributed a lot of white jade money.
"Dong Cheng's mustard seed talisman hasn't been counted yet." Chen Mu happily took out the brown wristband.
Not to mention what’s inside the mustard seed talisman.
Just this one mustard seed talisman is worth fifty-three white jade coins.
boom!
A wooden cabinet half a person's height suddenly appeared.
Just like he put the wooden frame on the Five Ghosts Bag.
Do users of the mustard seed talisman like to create such a classification drawer cabinet?
This was the case with Shang Huan before, and it is also the case with Dong Cheng now.
I was also forced to do nothing because of the characteristics of the Mustard Seed Talisman.
"The advanced mustard seed talisman may be able to solve the problem of classified access." Chen Mu guessed.
Open the first drawer casually.
Wow…
A small pile of round white jade came into view.
Chen Mu couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth, and immediately began to check one by one.
"Sixty-two? Great!"
"I have to go to the Sutra Academy tomorrow no matter what." Chen Mu was full of confidence. He felt his back was straight and his whole body was full of energy.
"With these one hundred white jade coins, we are not afraid of how expensive the secret method of jade cultivation is."
"The True Solution of Bai Yang only costs sixty white jade coins. How expensive can the Secret Method of Jade Seed be?"
"go with!"
"We must go to the seminary tomorrow!"

Chapter 197: The Temple of the Holy Spirit
North of Tongtianfang is the headquarters of Jilongdao Xiayuan.
Chen Mu came to the Sutra Hall with his head held high, carrying 116 white jade coins.
The courtyard is spacious, with green-tiled corridors built around it, black-tiled white walls on three sides, and small hollow windows on top.
There is no wall on the west side, and below it is a cliff more than ten meters high, standing next to the Tongtian River.
A huge three-story octagonal wooden building stands in the middle of the courtyard.
Chen Mu stood at the foot of the wooden building, turned his head and looked at the endless Tongtian River, and his heart unconsciously relaxed.
