I am grinding experience in another world

Chapter 483 - 475 Chapter Chaos

At the summit of Rooster Character Camp, inside the first floor hall of the wooden tower.

Behind the desk, Lan Zhang supported his chin with his right hand, lazily leaning back in the spacious wooden chair.

"Actually discovered the Blood God Child?"

"Interesting, indeed."

Bai Zhilang, with a hesitant look on his face, stood in front of the desk to the left: "The quantity of the multi-headed Jiaos is still a bit short, isn’t it a bit too early to expose the Blood God Child now?"

"Not too early, not at all, just right," Lan Zhang’s mouth curled up slightly.

Bai Zhilang couldn’t help but frown: "But we still have twenty percent of the Yin Soldiers that haven’t completed the transformation into the Blood God Child. If we expose it now, I’m afraid..."

"Those twenty percent of Yin Soldiers were never going to successfully transform," Lan Zhang shook his head with a light chuckle: "Our City Lord Jian is not that foolish."

Bai Zhilang’s face changed: "Could those Yin Soldiers be the secret Dao soldiers trained by the City Lord Mansion? Are they the spies embedded in each camp?"

"Don’t be so surprised, see, our Military Supervisor Gong isn’t he calm and quite collected?" Lan Zhang said cheerfully, lifting his chin toward Gong Huan.

Bai Zhilang suddenly turned his head to look at Gong Huan beside him: "You knew all along?!"

"Those Yin Soldiers and the Soul Summoning Banner are closely related; they are key to the City Lord’s forced control over the Soul Summoning Banner," Gong Huan shrugged his shoulders, his face indifferent: "As the Military Supervisor, of course, I have to know some means to counteract you."

"He wouldn’t hand all the Yin Soldiers over to me, what if I seized the Soul Summoning Banner?" Lan Zhang stood up straight, stretched his body, and twisted his shoulders: "Since City Lord Jian has his reservations, then the fewer Nether Demon spirits I give him, the better."

"Fair and just, an equal exchange."

No sooner had the words fallen, a palm-sized black flag drilled out from Bai Zhilang’s body, and in a flash transformed into a black lightning bolt, shooting out of the wooden tower and straight toward Ghost Gate at the mountain waist.

As the Soul Summoning Banner soared, billows of black smoke rose along its path, merging with it.

By the time it reached the mountain waist, the immobile Ghost Gate on the ground had already surged towards the sky, and the instant the two met, there was a flash of black light, and with a whoosh, they vanished completely.

Bai Zhilang was dumbfounded, and Lan Zhang couldn’t help but chuckle: "See, our City Lord Jian is quite satisfied with this deal. He’s come to collect his goods."

Gong Huan snickered and nodded: "With the nine-headed Jiaos you captured using the power of Nether Demon Heaven, even if we give half less of the ordinary multi-headed Jiao spirits, City Lord Jian won’t be unsatisfied."

Lan Zhang rose with a laugh: "Let’s get ready, after the Blood God Child takes care of the remaining Auxiliary Soldiers, we’ll meet up with my eleven avatars and go experience this Nether Demon Heaven together."

...

At the foot of the mountain, in the campsite of the fourth flag of Rooster Character Camp.

Chen Mu had just gathered his over a hundred Yin Spirits when he turned his head and saw the Ghost Gate and the Soul Summoning Banner disappear together. He immediately stood frozen on the spot.

Deserters!

Some had become deserters!

And they even took the Ghost Gate with them, abandoning all the remaining Yin Spirits!

At this moment, the Yin Soldiers’ camp at the top of the mountain was eerily silent, while the campsite of the Auxiliary Soldiers below was in utter chaos. Dense and wretchedly writhing blood shadows enveloped the entire mountain like a dark red deep-sea school of fish, firmly surrounding it.

Hearing the increasingly loud sounds of fighting and shouting around him, Chen Mu couldn’t help but shudder.

"Rooster Character Camp is no longer a place to stay!"

"I need to run, need to run fast!"

He immediately activated the Mountain-Carrying Scripture, and over two hundred of his own people, each carrying the Heavenly Demon Spirit Seed, instantly turned into black smoke.

With a wave of his hand, a circular black curtain appeared, the black smoke soared, and in the blink of an eye, it darted into Thousand Lanterns City and disappeared from sight.

Turning his head to look at the remaining hundred or so bewildered and frightened Yin Spirits, Chen Mu’s thoughts shifted, and then these Yin Spirits uniformly raised their hands over their shoulders.

Yama Emperor’s Command!

Watching the synchronized movements of these people, Chen Mu let out a sigh of relief.

Glad, so glad, that the only Blood God’s Child hidden within the Wu Four Banners was that bastard Jia Zhang.

The next moment, he waved his right hand, and over a hundred flickering Heavenly Demon Spirit Seeds scattered, swiftly burrowing into the mouths of these people with a whooshing sound.

He couldn’t care for others, but these hundred or so Yin Spirits had followed him for many days. It would have been fine if he hadn’t seen them, but now that they had gathered before his eyes, he ultimately couldn’t just abandon them.

The Mountain-Carrying Scripture activated once again, following the resonance point of the Heavenly Demon Spirit Seeds, the hundred or so Yin Spirits who had never practiced the Mountain-Carrying Scripture were forcibly turned into the Yin Wind black smoke and pulled up into the sky, disappearing into the entrance of Thousand Lanterns City in the blink of an eye.

Chen Mu also didn’t delay, his figure turning as he melded into the Gentle Breeze, swiftly escaping towards the edge of the camp at the foot of the mountain.

The Celestial Demon Cloud Mirage seemed to indeed have allocated all its skills on reproduction, for with every regression and perfection of the Divine Fetus, countless Spiritual Seeds would emerge.

Unfortunately, these Spiritual Seeds were frail to the extreme; left outside, they would struggle to survive, let alone find symbiotic hosts on their own, which was even more difficult.

"Subpar, sure, but not completely useless," Chen Mu couldn’t help squinting his eyes.

...

At the edge of the mountain’s base, within a dense forest, over two hundred Yin Soldiers of the Yinfeng Sect’s Yi Er Banner crouched, each lifting their heads with unsettled souls, looking at the sky.

"What in the world is that Blood Cloud?!"

"Where is General Bai? Are all the Yin Soldiers freaking dead?!"

"Damn, damn, damn! If we still had the Yin Wind Banner in our hands, by now we’d have flown out of the camp."

A string of frantic curses erupted.

"Yell, yell, yell, just freaking yell! What if those monsters come because of it? Shut your mouths!" berated a dark-faced flag-bearing Yin Soldier clad in brown leather armor, though fear and panic flashed in his eyes.

Above them, the blood shadows howled over the mountain peaks, and the forest below fell silent. After a long while, someone spoke softly, "Lead Flag, do you think we can survive this time?"

The black-faced Lead Flag turned to look at his subordinates, only to be met with pairs of hopeful eyes.

The morale is dispersing...

If one’s resolve isn’t firm, even a slim chance of survival might not be seized. He needed to inspire his brothers with the courage to escape.

The black-faced Lead Flag mulled over various provocative words. Taking a deep breath, he suddenly raised his arms above his shoulders.

The Yin Soldiers: "..."

"Lead Flag, are you telling us it’s better to surrender early rather than escape?"

Black-faced Lead Flag: "..."

"Bullshit! I just can’t control myself!" the black-faced Lead Flag hurriedly clarified.

"It’s over, it’s over, the Lead Flag is raving out of fear!" the auxiliary soldiers grew even more desperate.

"Just the other day you were boasting about having a heart as steady as a rock, and now when disaster strikes, you’re the first to surrender. We were wrong about you!"

An auxiliary soldier rebuked angrily, and as soon as his words fell, he also suddenly raised his arms over his shoulders.

The next moment, as if it were contagious, all the rest raised their hands in unison.

"Ha ha, I told you I couldn’t control myself, and you still didn’t believe me!" the black-faced Lead Flag shouted with surprise.

"Then what the heck is going on?!"

"Could that Blood Cloud monster actually make people surrender directly?!" the auxiliary Yin Soldiers asked, their faces filled with terror.

Before the crowd could discuss and understand, a series of glowing orbs appeared, resembling a swarm of fireflies, each dispersing and flying to someone’s mouth.

Then they helplessly watched themselves uncontrollably open their mouths and swallowed them.

A Gentle Breeze blew past, and the leading black-faced soldier shivered, regaining control of his body.

Then he noticed, without knowing when, a shiny silver mountain character had appeared on the back of his hand.

...

Chen Mu, transformed into a Gentle Breeze, enveloped the area with the Yama Emperor’s Command, with Heavenly Demon Spirit Seeds following close by.

Upon encountering a Yin Spirit, he would implant a Spiritual Seed into the body of each one. Within the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, he darted through the entire Auxiliary Soldier Camp, and the countless Heavenly Demon Spirit Seeds by his side had all vanished without a trace.

He stopped at the edge of an encampment and turned to gaze at the mountain peak, his face cold and determined.

"Mountain-Carrying Scripture!"

Hum!

The air vibrated abruptly, and the entire encampment plunged into silence.

The next moment, billowing black smoke rapidly rose from the woods, gathering into clouds. In the blink of an eye, an eclipse-like dark cloud, large enough to cover a substantial part of the camp, materialized.

Below the mountain waist, the camp, already dimmed by the fog, suddenly turned pitch black.

This sudden change stilled the entire camp into silence.

For a while, even the rampaging Blood God Children were startled by this event, standing still, unsure of how to proceed.
