"It's okay, it should be okay."
"Superintendent Song will not sit idly by." After drinking the herbal tea, Old Hao calmed down a little. He couldn't help but mutter in a low voice.
"Then what are you afraid of?"
Chen Mu inserted a rice stalk into the yellow gourd and sipped the nourishing tea.
"When did you prepare this cellar?" Old Hao, who had finally calmed down, looked at Chen Mu suspiciously: "Did you know there was danger a long time ago?"
"I do not know."
"But I know it's better to be prepared." Chen Mu shrugged.
From Daliang to Pengyue Mountain.
He didn't know how many cellars like this he had dug, and even gained experience from digging them out.
"It would be interesting if we could dig out an entry on the gray wall in the future." Chen Mu couldn't help but shook his head and laughed.
"I don't know how long it will take to calm down." Mr. Hao sighed after finally calming down.
"If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. What are you afraid of?" Chen Mu didn't care much.
After all, Song Wuji is a master of the Nengqiao realm, and the herds of strange beasts will only cause him some trouble.
But the hunting party is in trouble.
"Wait, then."
……
Half a day later.
A green cloud flew up from the direction of Pengyue Mountain.
First, drive away the swarms of poisonous insects and birds in the sky.
Then the swarm of insects seemed to be copied and pasted, one group became two groups, and they pounced on the ground and wreaked havoc on the strange beasts.
Chen Mu was in no hurry to leave. He just hid underground obediently.
During this time, a strange beast with a keen nose tried to pry open the cave entrance.
Chen Mu imprisoned him with his Qi for a hundred miles and devoured him with the five ghosts' spirits, turning him into nutrients for the Five Ghosts' Bag.
They waited underground for three days. Only when Pengyue Mountain began to organize people to clean up the aftermath of the monster rampage did Chen Mu jump out of the ground with Old Hao.
……
half a month later.
Yiyou District, on the wooden porch in front of Chen Mu’s house.
"It's a bad year. Why are there so many disasters and troubles in our Jilong Road?" Shang Huan sighed as he put one foot on a long bench and gnawed on the wings of an unknown bird.
"This attack caused hundreds of casualties."
"Dozens of people from the Inspection Office and the General Affairs Office who had mastered the spirit light were killed!"
"I heard that five or six governors at the Breaking Delusion realm died."
Chen Mu couldn't help but pause while chewing the vegetables.
Several of the governors who had broken through the delusion had died? Is it so dangerous?!
I was so calm and relaxed in the cellar. This is like walking in front of the gates of hell!
"With such a high level of cultivation, could something go wrong?" Chen Mu couldn't believe it.
"You probably don't know this." Shang Huan chuckled.
"I heard that there is a powerful demon hiding in this beast tide." Without waiting for Shang Huan to keep him in suspense, Old Hao told Chen Mu directly.
"A monster comparable to Supervisor Song who has reached the Perfection of Condensation?" Chen Mu felt a chill in his heart.
"It's that big monster!" Shang Huan said, and then raised his eyebrows mysteriously: "Do you know where it came from?"
"It is said that it is the Lengyue Toad in Lengyue Pond." Old Hao said to Chen Mu with a serious face.
"Can't you stop interrupting me?" Shang Huan was furious.
Old Hao didn't even look at Shang Huan, and carefully told Chen Mu what he knew: "It is said that when they first came, Supervisor Song and Leng Yuechan fought, and both were injured."
"We could only drive them away, but we couldn't kill them."
"The Lengyue Toad came back this time to seek revenge and also to take back Lengyue Lake."
Chen Mu couldn't help but frown.
"Someone went to the Sutra Academy and looked through the information." Old Hao continued, "It said that this cold moon toad has the ability to turn invisible."
"Everyone guessed that he was the one who drove the monsters to gather together, and then used a secret method to make the monsters invisible, so that they rushed to the hunting group's defense line without being noticed."
Chen Mu took a breath of cold air.
This big toad is so insidious!
"What was the result? Did Supervisor Song kill the big toad?" Chen Mu asked quickly.
It would be extremely dangerous to have something like this eyeing Pengyue Mountain.
"Previously, Supervisor Song was injured and had not recovered yet, so the toad escaped. We should be able to kill the big toad this time." said Old Hao.
"That's hard to say." Shang Huan shook his head: "After all, no one has seen the body of Leng Yuechan."
Chen Mu's heart skipped a beat when he heard this: "The House of Commons doesn't have an explanation?"
"I haven't heard anything." Shang Huan shook his head.
"The Inspection Office was busy cleaning up the battlefield. The General Affairs Office was busy providing compensation to the dead and injured disciples. The entire lower house has been in a mess for more than half a month. I guess they didn't have enough time." Old Hao guessed.
Chen Mu did not comment.
Rumors were rife and opinions were divergent, but the House of Commons did not give a clear explanation.
This is a little unsettling.
……
Three days later, in the underground secret room.
There is a door on the stone wall on the right.
Chen Mu jumped into the secret room, holding a fist-sized fluorescent algae lamp in his right hand and walked into the doorway on the right.
A passage appeared that spiraled downward at an angle.
Following the passage, Chen Mu came to a position five or six meters below the secret room.
Another underground space of more than ten square meters, similar in size to an ordinary living room, appeared.
"The total depth is only fifteen meters, which is not enough." Chen Mu silently calculated the height of the hillside where the wooden house was located.
He planned to continue digging deeper into the underground secret room and dig out a tunnel that could lead him out of Pengyue Mountain.
"When encountering flying monsters, flying kites are not very useful." Chen Mu was helpless.
Before the strange beasts attacked, the sky was full of poisonous insects and birds.
Although it is possible to encounter strange beasts underground, it is definitely less than on the ground.
Chen Mu was not in a hurry. He just took time out every day to dig a little.
After all, there are three masters of Condensation in the lower house. Overall, it is still very safe.
"It's better to be prepared." Chen Mu shrugged.
Black smoke hit the right wall and quickly eroded inward, and an arched passage wide for two people quickly took shape.
……
After the empty space in the Five Ghosts Bag is filled with soil.
Chen Mu left the underground and jumped into the first secret room.
Sitting cross-legged on the couch, Chen Mu took out a coincidence.
He should have first concentrated on brushing up the Fire Cloud Curse and the Three Yin Demon-Slaying Spell to the maximum.
But...
"This magic weapon is so cool!"
They have sharp attacks and strong defenses, one is pitch black, the other is pale, and they look weird, comparable to the Five Ghost Bags. This is exactly in line with his aesthetic.
“Just practice this first!”
"We have cheats. We don't have to worry about distractions!"
The magic power penetrated into the Yuan Fu and flowed into the white bone ball and the black moon blade along the palm.
Then a force would be fed back from the accident and transmitted to the mind.
Inside the jade seed, the magical smoke floated gently and slowly gathered.
A loose and strange symbol slowly emerged.
As Chen Mu maintained his mana output, the magic talismans became increasingly clear.
As luck would have it, it is different from all the magic weapons he had before. It has the effect of a jade tablet.
The spell to activate the magic weapon is inside the weapon itself. As long as magic power is injected into it, it will appear.
After a long while, Chen Mu stopped.
The talisman became loose again, and the silver star points at the edge slowly collapsed, until only a silk thread with two star points remained at the core.
Looking at the silk thread swaying, about to fall apart, but finally not falling apart, Chen Musong breathed a sigh of relief.
A new entry also appears on the gray wall.
Soul-raising spell: 12/10000/first level;
"It's done!"
"But, raising spirits? What does this mean?" Chen Mu thought about it and stopped caring.
As long as he improves his proficiency, he will know everything he needs to know.
