Chen Mu turned on the soul-guiding lamp, making the Thousand Lantern City brightly lit, and could not wait to begin testing the effectiveness of the Three Paths Curse.
Under the command of Hong Xiu, the ghost soldiers of the Gengliu Banner all activated their spells together, and a huge aura surged into Qiandeng City.
source!
The source of the Forgotten River!
Chen Mu was overjoyed.
In the past, when he cast the Three Paths Curse by himself, at most he could dig a small ditch from the side of the Forgotten River to divert the water. Now, with the three hundred guides casting the spell together, the small ditch suddenly became a small river two or three meters wide.
He immediately practiced the Peaceful Heart Sutra, and weak water immediately flowed into his body. The secret acupoint between his eyebrows beat regularly, and he felt an overwhelming sense of satisfaction.
Is this what cheating feels like?
What a pleasure!
He immediately calmed down his mind, tried his best to intercept the weak water power, and sent it into the secret acupoint between his eyebrows. Feeling the surging vitality of the ghost pattern that was visibly improved by the naked eye, Chen Mu was addicted to it and couldn't stop.
The bamboo tube dripped with a sound, time passed slowly, and the night became darker. Until the sky was about to dawn, the power of the Yin spirits was gradually exhausted, and the source of the Wangchuan River slowly disappeared, Chen Mu came back to his senses.
The true form of the celestial demon flew out, and the magical ghost patterns in its body seemed to flash with silver light. Fragments of the divine fetus poured out in bits and pieces, gathering from the soles of its feet to the top of its head, and finally whooshed into the prototype of the divine fetus.
hum!
The whole small courtyard seemed to be lit up by a high-power lamp, and was immediately illuminated by the bright white light.
After a while, when the light of the divine fetus weakened, Chen Mu took off the embryonic form of the divine fetus and took a closer look. The gaps on the mesh ball became tighter again, and a small handful of fluorescent demon spirit seeds were derived.
"If the divine fetus can be improved a little bit every day, wouldn't it only take three to five years to cultivate the divine fetus?" Chen Mu's face was full of surprise.
"Are you confused after staying up late? Go to sleep quickly. You can have all kinds of dreams." Shen Yan glanced at Chen Mu with undisguised sarcasm.
Chen Mu couldn't help but squint.
This old ghost has been getting more and more outrageous recently.
Shen Yan was being watched by Chen Mu, but he looked calm. He had also thought it through. He couldn't leave Qiandeng City anyway, so what was he afraid of?
Somersault? Splits? It doesn't matter!
"Are there any other explanations for this?" Chen Mu couldn't help but ask curiously.
"If you want to complete the divine fetus tracing as quickly as possible, your three hundred Yin spirits are simply not enough."
"But even if you continue to recruit people, the Pingxin Sutra's ability to refine weak water cannot be increased infinitely."
"Besides, Weak Water has the ability to assist the ghost pattern in tracing back to its origin, but it only has an assisting ability. What really determines the upper limit of the tracing speed is the potential of the magical ghost pattern itself."
"Just like the black leaf vegetables that have just been planted in this vegetable garden, can you really turn it into a dish in one day? It won't work even if you add a lot of fertilizer."
Chen Mu suddenly realized: "The speed of tracing the origin of the divine fetus has an upper limit?"
"Of course." Shen Yan nodded.
"When you asked me to gather the evil spirits, you didn't mention there was an upper limit to their potential!" Chen Mu asked with a dark face.
"Are you kidding me? It's inevitable that you'll avoid the important issues." Shen Yan shrugged, looking like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water.
Chen Mu suddenly paused.
He admitted it! This old man actually admitted that he was fooling people? !
Are you crazy?
Is there any other plan?
Chen Mu couldn't help scratching his head.
After Shen Yan's interruption, he had now regained his composure.
"The Divine Embryo is the foundation of the Yin God after all. It takes an ordinary Yin Spirit more than a hundred years to cultivate it. Even if there is a cheat with the Three Paths Curse, which can speed up the limit, it is impossible to cultivate it in a short time."
"Forget it, if it can be accomplished, it can be accomplished. I won't force it."
In Chen Mu's opinion, the true form of the Heavenly Demon was just a secret magical power and did not involve the fundamentals. He quickly calmed his mind.
……
Leaving the Yin Ling to Hong Xiu's disposal and letting them rest, Chen Mu got out of Qiandeng City.
The sun rises and the clouds are bright red.
The blood-red sun of the Dark Demon Sky would make the creatures bathing in its light irritable. Even though its light was blazing, it made people feel cold in their hearts. Only this rising sun could make people feel a little warm.
"The environment in Netherworld is really bad. Under the influence of Blood Sun, the entire Netherworld is likely to be full of disputes."
"I don't know how long those guys in Haiziying can hold out."
After seeing so much of the Haizi Camp's bustle of each doing its own thing, Chen Mu couldn't help but worry. Could he really return to the underworld by relying on this group of guys?
The Hai Camp is now completely exposed, and without any Yin soldiers to guard it. If they are attacked by the Nether Demon or Heavenly Demon...
His thoughts were in a tizzy, and he inadvertently turned his head and saw black smoke rising above the camp.
Chen Mu's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
isn't it...
He immediately activated his ear, but found that there was no other sound except the crackling sound of the remaining flames.
People?!
Where did the more than 100,000 ghosts in Haiziying go? !
I stayed up late to cultivate an immortal, but the Haizi Camp disappeared immediately? Magic doesn't work like that!
Chen Mu was stunned for a moment.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 463 Scattered
The camp of Hai.
The air was filled with the smell of burning wood, clothes, and flesh. Clay barracks collapsed in pieces, and earth pits were everywhere, with the edges all blackened by the flames.
The entire camp was silent, with handfuls of gray dust appearing on the ground from time to time, causing Chen Mu's expression to change again and again.
Those are the ashes of dead ghosts. Just by looking at the light layer of white ash on the ground, you can tell that a large number of ghosts died and dissipated last night.
"It should be the Red-eyed Water Monkey who launched a surprise attack at night." Shen Yan looked at the traces of destruction around him with a solemn expression.
At the edge of the camp, Chen Mu looked at the chaotic footsteps heading in all directions with a look of disbelief on his face: "Such a large camp, just collapsed and disappeared like this?"
That’s hundreds of thousands of ghosts!
"A bunch of useless people who failed to organize any effective counterattack!" Shen Yan's face turned pale as he looked at the messy footprints on the ground.
Although the auxiliary soldiers were not very powerful, they were not powerless to resist. As long as they were blocked step by step, they could escape in an orderly manner. It was not like now...
……
Thousand Lights City.
Hong Xiu walked to Chen Mu's courtyard. Before he went in, he saw Chen Mu sitting in front of the round table with a sad face.
The military supervisor Shen Yan next to him also had a bad look on his face.
Hong Xiu's heart skipped a beat and he was about to turn around and leave, but he was discovered by Chen Mu.
"Is something wrong?"
Hong Xiu had no choice but to step forward and said, "There is a guy in Gengliu Banner who was a bricklayer. He wants to bring in some wood to build barracks for everyone."
Chen Mu couldn't help but look into the distance.
After eating and drinking enough and being away from the influence of blood and yang, the ghosts were no longer confused and desperate. At this moment, they were gathered in groups of three or five to chat and gossip. No one knew what someone said, but it caused bursts of laughter.
Feeling the cheerful atmosphere in the distance, Chen Mu couldn't feel happy at all.
"I'll bring in some wood and stones when I have time." Chen Mu shook his head, but did not refuse. He had to find something for these people to do.
"You are busy." Hong Xiu got the answer, immediately clasped his hands, and turned around to leave. If the military supervisor Shen Yan had a headache, it must be a big thing. He thought it would be better for him not to get involved.
"Can your method of returning to the underworld work with these more than 300 ghosts?" Chen Mu looked at Shen Yan with hope.
"Are you remembering my plan now? It's too late!" Shen Yan looked unhappy.
It seems that it is not enough.
Chen Mu sighed.
He also didn't expect that such a large camp and hundreds of thousands of auxiliary troops would disappear overnight.
"With the help of those auxiliary soldiers, is there any chance to return to the underworld?" Chen Mu asked again.
Shen Yan also sighed. Given the current situation, all his previous plans had come to nothing.
"The people of the Medicine Stone Tribe have been in contact with the Yellow Spring Tribe for many years, and they have a way to draw the power of the Forgotten River."
"The Armament Department has a lot of soul-separating soup for the secret method of crossing the Yellow Springs. As long as the guys in the Construction Department learn it and work together to cast the spell, and with the cooperation of the Medicine and Stone Department to pull the Forgotten River, there is hope that we can return to the underworld on our own."
"such a pity……"
It's a pity that this group of people only know how to fight among themselves.
Chen Mu was so angry that his teeth were itching.
"Brother Chen, then let's..." Shi Dechun asked cautiously.
"Go after him..." Chen Mu shook his head.
"If we want to return to the underworld, we need the joint efforts of all the auxiliary soldiers. Let's catch up with the main force first."
……
Having made the decision, Chen Mu took action immediately, taking Shen Yan out of Qiandeng City and circling around the ruins of Haiziying to observe the direction of everyone's escape.
Looking at the chaotic footprints, Shen Yan's face was gloomy: "Hu Cheng from the Yinfeng tribe should be thrown into the Nine Netherworld and burned by fire!"
The Yinfeng Tribe?
Burning by fire?
What does this have to do with that?
