I am grinding experience in another world Chapter 800 - 788: Ninth Tier

The environnt of Mistaken Heaven is peculiar, with the majority being ocean, while the land mostly floats mid-air in the form of floating islands.

Since encountering the first flying island, Chen Mu and his companions seed to have entered a dense area.

Every three to five days, or eight to nine days, they would encounter a flying island.

The size of the islands varied, but whenever they encountered one, Daoist Monarch Jiang n would lead the group to attack. They would destroy the island's protective spirit light and then kill or drive away the native monster beasts on the island.

Chen Mu always chose to stay on the Five Directions Cloud Platform, never participating. This had almost beco his special assignnt.

This day.

The cloud platform was slowly drifting through the air.

Inside the Green Jade Snail Shell on the edge of the Ren Character Camp, Chen Mu lay in a rocking chair.

Above his head was a palm-sized pitch-black vortex, which was the shrunken portal of Thousand Lantern City.

At this mont, strands of white mist descended from within the vortex, disappearing into thin air before they even touched the top of Chen Mu's head.

This white mist was none other than the demon qi purified of demon poison.

As the demon qi was refined by the Daoist Foundation Jade Seed, the mana that was consud due to reversed practicing Primordial Qi was quickly replenished.

Not only that, the golden pill-like Daoist Foundation beca even more lively and agile.

"It's more than just that..."

Chen Mu opened his eyes, looking around him.

He sensed a kind of subtle fluctuation in his perception.

This is...

Has Sect Land Golden Light been enhanced again?

Chen Mu felt a surge of joy in his heart.

After mastering the Jade Cicada Dao Foundation, not only did he gain an innate protective Jade Cicada Qi chanism, but the Longitudinal Rainbow Light also upgraded, gaining a short-distance Breaking Sky Flying Escape ability.

It can't compare to the long-distance teleportation of Ghost Gate but excels in its rapid deploynt, allowing movent of nearly a kiloter with just a thought, which could be considered a youthful version of Shrinking Earth into Inches.

And this fluctuation around him was the perceptive feeling when the Longitudinal Earth Golden Light was activated.

"Too bad we are currently marching, not convenient to sneak out to test, but the teleportation distance of Longitudinal Earth Golden Light must have improved."

"This Jade Cicada Dao Foundation, it is almost certainly closely related to Mistaken Heaven."

Chen Mu grew more convinced.

After contemplating in private for a while, he summoned a gray stone door and looked at one of the panels within.

Yellow Springs Gourd: 7912/10000/Eighth Rank;

"Not bad, not bad."

"In just one or two more months, I should be able to reach the Ninth Layer." Chen Mu felt exhilarated at heart.

The demon qi purified of demon poison could substitute for Heavenly Star Essence, so whenever he had the chance, he attempted to practice with the Yellow Springs Gourd.

The Heavenly Demon Body's return, along with the Life and Death Seal forged by the Perfect Spiritual Treasure Core thod, greatly reduced the difficulty of refining the Spirit Treasure Talisman.

Even though his cultivation was interrupted several tis due to attacking flying islands, Chen Mu still made considerable progress.

…

Cheerfully observing for a while, Chen Mu once again subrged his spirit into the large eye of the Thousand Lantern City Shadow Pupil.

At this mont, a thick layer of white fog lay flat at the bottom of the empty Thousand Lantern City Cave Heaven, like a thick layer of cotton.

All of this fog was the demon qi he processed using the Plague Immortal Technique.

The Seven-Star Jade Purification Bottle was too small, unable to store enough for his cultivation needs. Thousand Lantern City was vast and could isolate inside and out, thus he used it to store demon qi.

Whenever he wasn't cultivating, Chen Mu would release the Giant Spirit Divine from the Five Directions Cloud Platform, letting the Giant Spirit Divine refine clean demon qi and send it into Thousand Lantern City.

His three-story small building was half subrged in the rich demon qi.

"I still need to continue storing it."

"This is really a treasure."

Demon qi can be used to restore mana, even more efficiently than Earth Spirit Elent. The tens of thousands of White Jade Coins he previously accumulated at Nine Peaks Mountain seed insignificant in comparison to this demon qi.

"If I don't store it up quickly now, I'll lose this great opportunity once I leave Mistaken Heaven."

"If I can fill up the Thousand Lantern City, I would basically not lack Vital Energy before I forge a Spiritual Treasure."

Just as Chen Mu was about to release the Giant Spirit Divine as usual to quietly absorb demon qi, he noticed five Daoist Soldiers outside the Green Jade Snail Shell.

The several soldiers were jostling each other, yet none dared to step forward and knock on the door.

Chen Mu opened the portal, frowning as he looked at them, "Whose subordinates are you, and what business brings you here?"

"Camp Master, we are Daoist Soldiers from your command of the Ren Yin Division, here for… for…"

The young man reluctantly pushed forward by the others spoke up but failed to finish even after so ti.

Chen Mu slightly furrowed his brows, glanced at them, then slightly expanded his Truth Listening Divine Power, covering the entire Ren Character Camp.

Ever since climbing onto the Five Directions Cloud Platform, for fear of offending Daoist Monarch Jiang n and inviting trouble, he dared not use Truth Listening Divine Power too liberally. But restricting the range to just the Ren Character Camp was manageable.

After just a few monts of listening, Chen Mu picked up the reason from the noisy discussions within the camp.

"You all want to be transferred to other camps to conveniently earn Daoist Cultivation achievents?" Chen Mu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

I've been stationed at the Five Directions Flag for a long ti, not participating in attacks on the Flying Island, and naturally, my Daoist Soldiers can't earn much Daoist Cultivation, so many want to leave the Ren Character Camp.

Several people looked pale, but could only nod with their faces stretched in determination.

Chen Mu frowned slightly but did not reprimand them.

The Ren Character Camp encompasses three divisions, each with over a thousand Daoist Soldiers. Those who want to leave are not just these few; even the commanders of the three divisions want to leave the Ren Character Camp.

These guys are just the unlucky ones pushed forward to test .

"Have you thought it through?"

"It might be easier to earn Daoist Cultivation at other camps, but the battles are perilous, and it's easy to lose your life."

"Camp Master, I am over fifty years old, stuck at the second trial of Qi Refinent Realm, the Primordial Talisman Realm, for twenty-seven years. I just want to acquire a High Grade Nucleus Formation Secret Technique to see the higher scenery," a white-haired elder spoke bitterly.

"This ti is my last chance; I hope the Camp Master fulfills it."

Chen Mu looked at the elder's white hair and sensed his emotions, as if seeing his past self.

Back then, he was tirelessly running around to obtain the secret technique resources needed for cultivation.

"I can let you go," Chen Mu said calmly, "but one person has to replace the departing one."

"I don't care who you find to substitute, but if one leaves, you must find soone to fill the vacancy."

The group listened, looking at each other in dismay.

The Ren Character Camp always stays at the Five Directions Flag, trickling in Daoist Cultivation. Who would co here?

Chen Mu wouldn't bother about whether they found it difficult.

If everyone easily left, what would happen if all the Daoist Soldiers at the Ren Character Camp were gone?

Without any Daoist Soldiers under his command, he might be rged into other camps; then how could he continue to stay at the Cloud Platform and avoid conflict?

Ignoring their displeased expressions, Chen Mu waved them away directly.

He has told them the conditions, whether they can achieve it depends on them.

Rather than wasting ti arguing here, Chen Mu felt it better to send Giant Spirit Divine to accumulate Demon Qi.

…

Chen Mu originally thought it would take a long ti for those people to return.

But surprisingly, just an hour later, five people appeared before him again. Along with them ca five Qi Cultivators missing arms and legs.

These are... injured Daoists from other camps?

Indeed.

The Ren Character Camp stays at the Cloud Platform every ti, contributing very little to Daoist Cultivation. Only these heavily injured Qi Cultivators, unable to fight for a while, agree to transfer to the Ren Character Camp.

Tut!

Quite clever, aren't they?

Chen Mu swept his gaze over the five Daoist Soldiers under his command with ingratiating smiles, raising his eyebrows.

"Alright, take them back and settle them, and you can leave."

Since they found soone to replenish the Daoist Soldiers, Chen Mu did not go back on his word and allowed them to leave.

…

In the subsequent ti.

Those Qi Cultivators in the Ren Character Camp wanting to make their mark beca active, searching everywhere to swap injured soldiers to change camps.

And over the past month or two, Daoist Monarch Jiang went on a battle frenzy, attacking and destroying any Flying Islands he saw. In successive battles, there was no shortage of injured soldiers.

The camp masters of other camps also gladly allowed it.

Swapping injured soldiers who lost their fighting ability for spirited Daoist Soldiers wouldn't be stopped; the stronger their subordinates, the more results they could achieve.

Thus, in just seven or eight days, Chen Mu's Ren Character Camp was filled with five or six hundred injured soldiers missing limbs.

Later on, Daoist Soldiers no longer needed to find soone to replace themselves; commanding generals from other camps brought people to swap directly at the Ren Character Camp. The whole Ren Character Camp beca an exclusive injured soldiers' camp.

Several camp masters looked at Chen Mu with strange eyes, so in contempt, so in pity, but Chen Mu simply didn't care.

He didn't need his Daoist Soldiers to help earn him Daoist Cultivation. And missing limbs didn't affect performing Sealing Demon Curse as power sources for the Five Directions Flag.

The full camp of injured soldiers was of no consequence to him.

…

Another half month, deep in the night.

Mistaken Heaven's bright night sky glead with countless stars.

At the edge of the Ren Character Camp, Green Jade Immortal Residence.

A subtle yet powerful fluctuation blossod from Chen Mu, then vanished imperceptibly.

In the center of the Dao Foundation Jade Seed, a pale yellow gourd floated in the mana misty sea.

A faint vitality called from within the gourd. Only after a full hour did the pale yellow gourd begin to slowly dissipate.

Chen Mu opened his eyes, summoning a semi-transparent gray stone gate in his vision.

Yellow Springs Gourd: 12/10000/Ninth Rank;

"Ha! It's done!"
