Chapter 488 Rest
Darkness.
A faint gray mist floated in the sky, and the sun released a cold white light.
The mountains below were quiet. At the corner of the valley, a black cold wind occasionally appeared, and then suddenly disappeared.
At a certain moment, a two- or three-story-high black ball suddenly appeared in the sky.
A group of black smoke with a long tail rushed out of it, like a falling meteor, flashing a pale green flame, and smashed straight to the ground.
Boom!
At the foot of a hill somewhere, a large area of trees fell, broken branches and broken leaves flew, and a seven or eight-meter-wide pit was impacted by the black smoke, with smoke and dust rolling around, and soil and gravel flying.
When the breeze blew away the dust, a giant with a height of five or six meters and indigo skin, with a burning breath all over his body, closed his eyes and lay on his back at the bottom of the pit.
Not long after, the giant shrank like a deflated ball, and returned to normal human size in a few breaths.
After a long while, the ragged Chen Mu regained consciousness and slowly opened his eyes.
He looked at the cold white sun in the sky in a daze, feeling the cold breath in the light, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face.
"The sun of Yinming... It's been a long time since I last saw it."
...
Two days later, in a small valley twenty miles away from the top of the mountain, the thatched-roof wooden house produced by Mingmotian moved out of Qiandeng City and hid among the mountains and forests.
On the corridor at the door, Chen Mu lay in a rocking chair, blowing the unique cold wind of Yinming, squinting his eyes slightly.
Although the environment of Yinming was not very good, compared with Mingmotian, Chen Mu immediately felt the tranquility and peace here.
"I just don't know how Shen Laogui and the others are."
The human ghost gate is still not as safe as the authentic ghost gate.
There was no problem when leaving Mingmotian, and there was no problem with the passage in the middle that was completely chaotic up and down, left and right, and full of turbulent flow of Venus.
But something went wrong when entering Yinming.
They hit nine layers of invisible walls.
The wall was soft like a film, and seemed to have a recognition function. Ghost Gate took them through easily.
But as the number of invisible barriers passed increased, the Ghost Gate composed of Yin spirits gradually deformed.
It was like a large ship glued together. After repeated washing, the glue was diluted and washed away, and various parts began to loosen and fall off.
When they passed the ninth layer of invisible barriers, the Ghost Gate, which was forcibly connected by the Danshan Sutra, completely collapsed, and the Yin spirits were forced to scatter.
"The preparation is still not sufficient." Chen Mu sighed.
Although he had practiced the sixth-level Yumen Curse to the limit, greatly improving his control. But the strength of the Yin spirits was uneven after all, just like stones of different sizes and shapes piled together, with a lot of gaps in the middle, all relying on the Danshan Sutra to fill and maintain.
It was not obvious in short-distance movement, but once it crossed the void and stretched the distance, and then encountered the impact of the Yinming invisible barrier, problems immediately occurred.
As for the Yin spirits scattered in all directions...
He couldn't help shaking his head.
He hadn't noticed the return of the spirit seeds in the past two days, so he thought it was likely that they had survived. But he didn't know where they had landed and whether the surrounding environment was suitable for survival.
"I can only wish you good luck."
They were originally a makeshift team that had come together to struggle for survival. It was an accident that they were together, and they had to scatter in all directions.
"It's a pity that Old Ghost Shen left."
"An old ghost who has been here for more than 300 years must have mastered a lot of secret spells and methods, and he also knows a lot of underworld secrets. It's a pity that he didn't get out much in total in the underworld.
His mind was full of thoughts, but his hands were moving non-stop.
After using the Listening Method again to confirm that there was no major danger, he set up the Xiao Sancai Shading Method.
The thatched house, which was originally hidden in a secret place in the mountains and forests, was suddenly covered and replaced by a huge stone.
After releasing the five ghost paper figures to warn, he lay in the rocking chair, basking in the sun and resting his eyes.
He had been in the Dark Demon Heaven for nearly two years, and although he was safe in the Thousand Lights City, it was a broken cave after all. If he hadn't used the soul-guiding lamp to simulate the light changes, a circadian rhythm disorder would have brought him great trouble.
Now that he had finally returned to the Dark, he had to rest for a few days no matter what.
…………
Days passed, and the wild mountains and ridges were cold and lonely. But Chen Mu had enough food and drink, and was safe, so he could feel the comfort.
That day, he slept until dawn as usual. After a quick wash, he took a bowl of raw porridge made of yellow sprout rice and Dark Demon Heaven blood fish, and sat at the door with a small wooden chair, basking in the cold sun of the Dark, while browsing the gray walls.
In the current situation, there was actually nothing to see, and it was more out of habit.
He still had more than 1,200 white jade coins on him, and he couldn't practice any of the secrets of the Qigong practitioner side, so it was useless to look at them.
Most of the secrets of the Heavenly Demon's True Form have been practiced to the limit, and even the Jade Gate Curse was practiced to the limit before leaving the Dark Demon Heaven. Only the Yellow Spring Yin Secret is left to practice.
Fortunately, the perfection of the secret does not mean the end. Although the Peace Heart Sutra and the Three Paths Curse can no longer bring him experience points, they can continuously collect weak water and make the Heavenly Demon's True Form more perfect.
"It's just that the speed is a bit slow."
"Another day of missing the Yin spirits."
Back to the Yin and Ming, the breath of the Forgotten River is filled, and the efficiency of the Three Paths Curse and the Peace Heart Sutra has increased sharply, but compared with the previous time in the Dark Demon Heaven, this speed is a bit insufficient.
At the beginning, there were five or six thousand Yin spirits in Qiandeng City. With the help of their chanting of the Three Paths Curse, the speed was as fast as riding a rocket.
"What a pity." Chen Mu looked regretful.
"How about... capture some Yin spirits and send them to Thousand Lanterns City?" A tempting idea suddenly appeared.
"No, no, no, no, it's not serious in any way. In the Demon Heaven, it was done out of necessity before. Now that I'm back in Yinming, I'm planting spiritual seeds for Yin spirits at will. That's a crooked way." Chen Mu shook his head repeatedly. : "I'm a good person, I wouldn't do such a thing!"
With this thought in mind, he looked up and saw five ghosts and paper figures driving two ghosts, one tall and one short, into Xiao Sancai's forbidden area.
Chen Mu's heart tightened instinctively, and the Demon Emperor's command was activated, and the Demon Spirit Seed was stuffed into the mouths of the two Yin spirits in one swish.
"Tell me! How did you find this place? Who is behind the scenes? Do you want to harm me?!"
The two Yin spirits opened their mouths, looking confused.
…
"So, you are the subordinates of that one-horned ghost king, and you are here to check out the bolide from the past few days?"
There is actually a ghost king lingering in this wilderness? It's troublesome.
Chen Mu looked solemn.
"Just the two of you?" Chen Mu asked with a frown.
The tall Yinling with a long face did not dare to hide: "We came in two teams of twenty people. We worked in pairs and searched in all directions. As soon as we arrived nearby, we were captured by your paper ghost soldiers and brought here."
Chen Mu didn't care about cherishing the magic power and immediately urged Di to listen to the Dharma.
The sound from a radius of twenty miles reached my ears, and a blurry black and white image emerged in my mind. Sure enough, he found more than ten people moving in different directions to investigate.
"Who is the One-Horned Ghost King?" Chen Mu then asked.
"The mountains here are called Daqingshan, and the one-horned ghost king Shangyang is the master of Daqingshan." The short round-faced Yinling also quickly explained: "It is rumored that he was once a general of Qingyang City, and was later excluded and suppressed. In a fit of anger, he rebelled against Qingyang City, occupied the mountains here, and built a city in the mountains. "
"The two of us are the soldiers of the Qingshan City Patrol Battalion."
"A meteor fell from the sky a few days ago. The city lord was afraid that new monsters would fall into the underworld, so he sent us to investigate to prevent a catastrophe."
Lord of a city?
Have you ever been a general?
It's a bit troublesome.
Since he can be a general, he must be in the Divine Embryo Realm. If he is exposed in front of the other party, the ending may not be pretty.
"I just want to practice for a few days, but I don't want to cause trouble." Chen Mu muttered twice, Di Tingfa activated again, and the other eighteen Yin spirit soldiers were immediately targeted.
"I can only turn you into my own people first."
The order of Emperor Yan Mo!
