Chapter 450 - 443 Crazy
```
Two days later, deep into the night.
In the barracks of Yi San Banner belonging to the Flame Moving Division, within an underground secret chamber that had been expanded several times over.
Hissss...
Dense white mist surged in all directions, the white leather lanterns hanging high on the walls swayed violently in the gusts of wind.
After a long while, the white fog dissipated. Chen Mu shifted back to his true form, pulled out a couch, and with a plop, he lay down on it. The lingering memory of the intense pain caused him to tremble uncontrollably.
With a flip of his right hand, a Jade Dew Pearl appeared, and he shakily performed the Soul Capturing Return to Origin Technique. The soothing essence flowed, and the trembling of his body finally began to ease.
After a good moment, a sense of fullness came from the secret point between his eyebrows, and only then did he heave a long sigh of relief and stopped the Soul Capturing Return to Origin.
"No wonder the Flight of Flame Scripture is so unpopular; every cultivation session feels like undergoing torture. Only a madman would enjoy such training," Chen Mu grimaced.
Over the years, he had practiced countless secret techniques, but the experience with the Flight of Flame Scripture was the worst. Fortunately, it gave plenty of experience points, or else he wouldn’t push himself so hard.
With a thought, a gray wall appeared, and he stared intently at one of the columns.
Netherworld Guide: 8593/10000; First Rank;
"That’s really fast. In no more than one day, the Netherworld Guide will enter a whole new stage," Chen Mu couldn’t help but reveal a satisfied smile.
In the palm of his right hand, the formerly chaotic silver patterns had now completely transformed into a smooth hollow ring.
Yin Spirit Divine Power was injected, and a human-head-sized glob of River of Oblivion Water slowly emerged in the center of his palm.
"When I’ve maxed out the Second Rank experience, I should be able to summon a full pot of River of Oblivion Water."
"With a few more sessions of cultivating the Flight of Flame Scripture to strengthen my foundation, it won’t be long before I can meet all the requirements to join the Netherworld Division," Chen Mu’s heart surged with excitement.
Yet when he saw the White Jade Box on the couch, he couldn’t help but let out a small sigh, "If only the consumption of Jade Dew were a bit less, that would be even better."
Practicing the Flight of Flame Scripture and the Netherworld Guide simultaneously would cause slight injuries that would consume a lot of his foundation, forcing him to use a large number of Jade Dew Pearls to replenish and fortify himself.
The Jade Dew Pearls in the White Jade Box were accumulated while he was in Antiquity City. Originally the box was full, but now only half remained.
"Go to the Military Provision Department to buy Jade Dew Pearls?"
"I always feel it’s not quite cost-effective."
"Make them myself?" He quickly shook his head after giving it some thought.
"Too consuming of Divine Power, too time-consuming."
"But what if I were to apply the Soul Capturing Return to Origin to the water apes..." A slight curve formed on Chen Mu’s lips as he thought of the piles of red-eyed water apes on the battlefield.@@@@
"Brilliant!"
...
The next day.
Accompanied by thunderous drumming, the forces of Hai Character Camp set out once again.
Chen Mu had braced himself for a grueling, drawn-out battle, but by noon, the troops had already returned.
On the battlefield by the Blood River.
These silver filaments extended beyond the edges of the vertical patterns, boring beneath his skin, and followed the minute blood vessels, spreading in all directions, as if the vertical patterns between his eyebrows had sprouted countless tiny roots.
"Finally, the Divine Ghost Pattern shows itself."
"Although I still don’t know how long it will take to fully master it, even now, it has already doubled my Yin Spirit Divine Power."
"With this, the condition of summoning ten cauldrons of River of Oblivion Water might soon be realized."
"Double happiness has come knocking at the door!"
...
In the heart of Hai Character Camp’s stone temple.
Lan Zhang sat casually in pure white clothing, slouching on a stone chair.
Streams of blood-red threads floated out from behind him, soaring towards the apex of the stone temple.
The threads converged and merged into a blood cloud.
Suddenly, a water monkey head, nearly large enough to fill half a basketball court, burst from the blood cloud and recklessly rushed to Lan Zhang’s face.
It opened its mouth filled with ghostly white fangs, bellowing ferociously as if it intended to devour Lan Zhang in one bite.
As the gaping maw loomed inches away, Lan Zhang’s casually draped black hair was blown back, yet his expression remained unchanged.
He tapped the armrest of the stone chair with his right index finger, and instantly, numerous blood-red threads flew out from the blood cloud, swiftly binding the enormous head firmly in front of him.
At that moment, the huge head floated motionless in midair, its gaze fixed on Lan Zhang, its entire being larger than the man himself.
"Easy there, little monkey," Lan Zhang chuckled lightly.
"Becoming a part of me is your good fortune."
"Only by following me will you have the chance to witness a broader world."
The next instant, the blood-red threads tensed fiercely, the massive water monkey head struggled reluctantly, but ultimately, it was pulled unwillingly into the blood cloud and vanished from sight.
"You have already turned it into a Blood God Child, but why didn’t you erase its consciousness?" Suddenly, countless eyes appeared within the shadows, and a plethora of clear, child-like voices brimming with confusion asked, "Aren’t you afraid of going insane?"
"Wu Mu, you might not realize how much I particularly enjoy excitement," Lan Zhang replied earnestly.
All of Wu Mu’s numerous eyeballs blinked in unison.
Prohibiting anyone from approaching within three hundred meters of the stone temple, spending every day in solitary silence within the empty temple, and yet you still like excitement?
What a joke!
"You have no idea how wonderful it feels to have someone to talk to inside your head!" Lan Zhang grinned widely, his every fine tooth revealing his glee.
Wu Mu’s heart skipped a beat.
Could this guy have been crazy all along?
"Ah, a single little monkey is a bit too mundane after all."
"When I have encapsulated the entirety of the Hai Character Camp into my brain, that will truly be lively!" Lan Zhang’s voice trembled with excitement, every muscle in his body twitched with joy.
Then he abruptly turned his head, meeting the multitude of eyeballs in the shadow with a sincere invitation, "Wu Mu, when the time comes, you must join the fun too!"
Wu Mu: "..."
Damn, he is definitely a madman!
