I am grinding experience in another world

Chen Mu looked at the overwhelming advance of Li Wuyou and felt his scalp tingle.

This damned thing doesn’t play by the rules!

Run?

Li Wuyou moved like a ghost, and for the past twenty or so days, despite using all his tricks, he had been unable to shake him off. Now with so many copies to assist him, there was no way he could escape.

Fight?

One Li Wuyou had already driven him to the brink of exhaustion; now with thousands of Li Wuyous swarming at him, fighting was out of the question!

“Quick, which way to the River of Oblivion?” Chen Mu urgently asked Lü Liang.

“Six hundred li south of Feng’an City there’s a stretch of the River of Oblivion,” Lü Liang replied hoarsely, leaning against the crenel of the city wall, his face filled with bitterness. “It’s no use, Feng’an City has become King Wuyou’s hunting ground, and now that he is going all out, he’ll never let us escape.”

“I only hope you’ve spread the East Pole Longevity Scripture widely enough,” Chen Mu said through clenched teeth.

At this point, he had no choice but to risk his life and fight.

Li Wuyou could be temporarily restrained by the River of Oblivion Water, and as long as they could bring in enough water to envelop themselves and others, they could temporarily isolate the numerous Li Wuyous and have a chance to dive into the River of Oblivion to shake him off.

To draw in enough River of Oblivion Water to isolate all the Li Wuyous, an enormous amount of Yin Spirit Divine Power was indispensable.

Only by using the Heavenly Demon Spirit Seed as a resonance point and forcibly implementing the Mountain-Carrying Scripture could he possibly gather such a quantity of Yin Spirit Divine Power and help them escape.

Chen Mu took a deep breath and fully activated the Perfection-level Mountain-Carrying Scripture.

Drip drop!

It was as if a drop of rain had fallen on a calm surface of water.

Suddenly, that secret rhythm unique to the Heavenly Demon Spirit Seed in Lü Liang’s body appeared in Chen Mu’s heart.

Then it was Lü Thirteen’s turn, followed by the Yin soldiers near the city wall, and then…

Whoosh…

It was as if a downpour had started in his tranquil heart, countless Spiritual Seed rhythms responding within.

“How many copies of that East Pole Longevity Scripture did you actually spread out?” Chen Mu asked, staring dumbfounded at Lü Liang.

“One for each person, what’s up?” Lü Liang responded, looking puzzled.

“Well spread!” Chen Mu laughed heartily.

Before, he had thought about fleeing as far as possible.

But now…

He looked towards Feng’an City and saw Li Wuyou, who was racing towards him like a shot arrow, suddenly revealing a crazed smile.

“Ghosts Carrying the Mountain!”

Hum!

The air around the entire city vibrated as if a gigantic heart had started thumping.

Wisps of black smoke started appearing between the streets and buildings, rising straight into the sky.

Within two breaths, a massive black cloud large enough to envelop the whole Feng’an City burst into existence.

At this moment, the fastest Li Wuyou had already leaped onto the city wall. His legs launching him forcefully, he shattered a section of the wall and soared into the air, heading straight for Chen Mu.

“Eat shit!”

Chen Mu, surrounded by silver-spotted black smoke, lashed out with a kick, hitting the opponent’s bizarre smiling face squarely.

Bang!

A ring of air exploded outward as that Li Wuyou suddenly flew backward, smashing a large hole in the city wall before crashing into the ground.

“My turn now! Haha!”

Chen Mu laughed loudly, spinning around and transforming into black smoke, whisking away Lü Liang and Lü Thirteen as he soared into the sky.

As they entered the Yin Wind black clouds, he steeled his heart and ran the vast Yin Spirit Divine Power at full force.

Netherworld!

Whoosh…

The sky seemed to have an invisible gap open up, like water spilling over a floodgate, massive amounts of River of Oblivion Water gushed down with countless white foam, tumbling from above.

In the blink of an eye, the dark cloud was engulfed, followed by a downward cascade, forming a bowl-shaped curtain that covered the entire city of Feng’an in a moment.

Surging river water quickly poured into the city, and the countless Li Wuyous hidden in the streets became stiff as stone sculptures, caught in the dark current and whirlpool.

“You’ve had a tough time chasing after me, go wash the dust off in the River of Oblivion. Haha!”

With a thought, the huge sphere of water suddenly began to rumble and roll southward, heading straight for the location of the River of Oblivion.

…

At dawn by the bank of the River of Oblivion, a dense fog was spreading everywhere.

A group of middle-aged men in white clothes, with sly, fox-like smiles, appeared and disappeared within the mist.

As the sun rose, the fog slowly dissipated, and the eerie middle-aged men disappeared like snowflakes under the hot sun, as if they had never existed.

In a thatched wooden house by the river, Chen Mu, lying in a rocking chair, withdrew his gaze: “Really persistent, these ghosts.”

This was his third day by the River of Oblivion, but unfortunately, he still could not shake off Li Wuyou.

The copies of Li Wuyou inside Feng’an City had all been dumped into the River of Oblivion.

But just on the second day, that damned thing appeared again, ever-watchful three li away from the riverbank.

Even though Li Wuyou was scared of approaching near the River of Oblivion, it also meant that Chen Mu and the others were trapped by its banks.

Safe, but only temporarily.

“With countless copies, King Wuyou becomes stronger the more you kill. It’s already quite remarkable that he’s surrounding us without attacking,” Lü Liang said with a sense of amazement as he sat in a short bamboo chair next to Chen Mu.

“If we want to completely get rid of this entanglement, we’ll have to wait for my father to return.”

“You’re that certain your city lord father will attain Yin Godhood?” Chen Mu asked with a sidelong glance.

“I’m not certain, but I will hope for the best,” Lü Liang shrugged.

To put all your hopes on someone else? Continue your adventure with My Virtual Library Empire

Tsk!

That’s unreliable.

According to Lü Liang, the Lord of Qingyang City brought this disaster upon Feng’an City with the sole purpose of its destruction.

But now the adversary was being held up by the River of Oblivion. Who knew if Qingyang City would employ other measures?

Wait for Lord Lü to return?

When would that be?

Besides, what if he never comes back?

Chen Mu glanced at Lü Liang, “Do you know how this ‘Worry-Free King’ tracks and locks onto his enemies?”

“I don’t know, he probably possesses some kind of ‘Thousand Mile Soul Locking’ divine skill,” Lü Liang guessed.

“If that ghostly thing is so afraid of the River of Oblivion, would hiding inside the river rid us of its entanglement completely?” Chen Mu mused, squinting at the serene expanse of the river.

“It’s possible, but I’m afraid very few would dare to enter the water,” Lü Liang shook his head.

The River of Oblivion also had the power to restrain Yin Spirits. Particularly those spirits that climbed out from the river. If they dared to enter, it’s estimated they would find it extremely difficult to leave and would completely plummet to the riverbed, equivalent to suicide.

Chen Mu didn’t speak. Instead, he activated his Yin Spirit Divine Power.

Boom!

A black fireball, the height of a person, suddenly appeared on the surface of the river nearby. The pitch-black Nine Nether Green Flames burned quietly, scattering a scorching heat in all directions.

With a flick of his right index finger, wooden cups on the small tables around him shot out, diving into the black fireball.

With a downward pressing motion of his finger, the Nine Nether Green Flames enveloped the wooden cups as they submerged into the River of Oblivion.

Moments later, Chen Mu hooked his finger and the significantly dimmed fireball emerged back from the river.

As he willed it, the wooden cup filled with Replenishing Origin Soup reappeared beside Chen Mu, unharmed.

“The Nine Nether Green Flames can indeed isolate the erosion of the River of Oblivion Water,” Chen Mu said with a smile.

He had perfected the Netherworld Guide Secret Technique. It could attract water from the third layer of the River of Oblivion as well as the Nine Nether Green Flames.

These two forces had opposing natures and could restrain each other. He had even fashioned a secret technique bomb with them, but it was a pity it had not been used yet.

“Let’s go build a Ghost Gate,” he said.

“If something unexpected really happens, we’ll use the Nine Nether Green Flames to isolate us from the River of Oblivion Water, dive into the river to avoid the Worry-Free King first, and then activate the Ghost Gate to head to Beyond Heaven.”

It’s just Nether Demon Heaven, he had been there before.

With Thousand Lanterns City, as long as they could shake off Li Wuyou’s pursuit, there was no danger in going to Nether Demon Heaven.

…

The following morning.

Inside a riverside cabin, Chen Mu, who was lying quietly in bed, suddenly opened his eyes. Upon seeing the wooden ceiling above him, his mind snapped back to reality, and he dispersed the Yin Wind Escape he had already half invoked.

“This damn Li Wuyou has really caused me a lot of trouble,” he couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

Being haunted by Li Wuyou for more than twenty days, Chen Mu had been either in combat or fleeing, already utterly exhausted.

He intended to sleep soundly for three days by the River of Oblivion. Unfortunately, every time he closed his eyes, that eerily smiling face of the adversary would appear in his dreams.

And because it was in a dream, the appearances were even weirder. Just last night, he had woken up in fright three times.

“Truly a lingering specter,” Chen Mu said with a wry smile.

He figured that getting a good night’s sleep before completely shaking off Li Wuyou would be somewhat challenging.

He got up and went to the window. The people of Feng’an City nearby had already started their bustling day.

With a backup plan to teleport to Beyond Heaven, the people of Feng’an City, who had been troubled by Li Wuyou for many days, burst into tremendous enthusiasm. Everyone in the city was filled with vigor.

Lots of people covered themselves with Nine Nether Green Flames and jumped into the River of Oblivion to collect stones, while others under the leadership of Lü Liang gathered Yin Spirit Divine Power to build the Ghost Gate.

With the eerie Li Wuyou watching from not too far away, not only did no one slack off, but many worked tirelessly without eating, drinking, or sleeping, making considerable progress.

Chen Mu couldn’t help glaring at the creepy, smiling face in the distance.

He really wanted to kill that bastard.

As he willed it, a gray wall appeared before his eyes.

Five Dragons Scripture: Perfection.

In the past twenty-plus days of fighting, to replenish Essence, the Five Dragon Dharma Body had devoured numerous Strange Demons.

Moreover, to counter Li Wuyou, it had been used exceedingly frequently. Consequently, the experience soared, and Chen Mu unconsciously brought it to perfection.

Hum!

The air above the River of Oblivion vibrated.

Tendrils of black smoke adorned with silver specks spread, and five dragon heads, seeming cast from black iron, materialized, while their glossy black Scale Armor and the gleam of their clashing claws intermittently appeared within the smoke.

The mirror-like waters of the River of Oblivion rippled, and the busy Yin Spirits of Feng’an City suddenly stiffened in place, their faces filled with horror as if they were hit by a Binding Spell.

The Divine Fetus Dharma Aspect, formidable indeed!

Chen Mu revealed a satisfied smile.

Noticing the disturbance in the distance, he quickly waved his hand to dissipate the Dharma Aspect.

However, the Dharma Aspect didn’t vanish but instead transformed into an invisible force that enveloped Chen Mu’s surroundings.

The black smoke, flickering with silver stars, was the manifestation of the fully realized Dharma Aspect Energy.

With just the Five Dragons Scripture Secret Technique, he was already able to compete with a Divine Fetus Yin Spirit!
