The next day, by the Wangchuan River.

A group of people spread out in twos and threes and wandered along the river.

Chen Mu stood next to Shi Dechun, looking at the endless and calm water surface with lingering fear. The memory of the fear of struggling at the bottom of the river still remained in his heart.

As I was looking at the river in trance, a splash of water suddenly appeared.

A group of human-shaped black shadows suddenly jumped out of the water, and then sank into it again. As it rises and falls, it turns into a human form for a while, and then returns to the shape of black smoke.

After struggling dozens of times, he finally sank to the bottom of the water and disappeared. There was only a circle of ripples left that spread slowly, but it soon returned to calm, becoming like a glass mirror again.

"It's a pity." Shi Dechun's face was filled with sadness.

Chen Mu frowned: "What will happen if that person falls into the bottom of the river again?"

"What else can I do?" Shi Dechun snorted coldly.

Chen Mu's heart skipped a beat.

Will he die completely?

He remembered that the water in the Forgotten River was extremely corrosive, comparable to terrifying poison.

Shi Dechun's face was gloomy: "Of course he is going to be reincarnated."

Chen Mu's face froze: "It doesn't seem to be a bad thing to be reincarnated, right?"

Shi Dechun had a stinking look on his face: "He is able to live a free and easy life, but I lost five jade dew beads in vain."

"Niutou has said that if anyone helps him pick up a ghost from the river, he will charge five less jade dew beads for the travel expenses to Jigucheng."

"What a loss..."

Chen Mu couldn't help but roll his eyes.

I thought you were taking advantage of others, but after doing this for a long time, you are worried about your income?

Tsk…

but……

"Is there really such a thing as reincarnation?" Chen Mu expressed doubts.

"Why not?" Shi Dechun glanced at Chen Mu strangely: "As long as you soak in the bottom of the river long enough, you can wash away the marks of your past life."

"At that time, the body will turn from black to white and become as light as a feather. You can fly out of the Wangchuan River and go to Naihe Bridge."

real or fake? !

Chen Mu was full of doubts: "Have you seen Naihe Bridge?"

Isn’t this all something in stories and legends? He has been practicing qi for more than ten years and has never seen such a statement in the official Taoist scriptures.

Shi Dechun looked indifferent: "I have never seen Naihe Bridge, but it is quite common to see ghosts walking by the Wangchuan River and flying to reincarnate."

As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes, raised his chin and pointed to the river as if watching a good show: "Hey, there is one there."

Chen Mu looked up in surprise and saw a cloud of white smoke flying out of the water.

Its head changed color quickly, and its facial features appeared clearly, but below the neck, there was a white smoke ball like a long snake.

The man's face had a dull expression and his eyes were drooped, as if he had been summoned by something. The tail of the white smoke swayed slightly, then flew to the other side of the endless Wangchuan River and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Chen Mu froze and felt his hair stand on end.

Isn’t this the basilisk with a human face that I encountered on Jilong Mountain?

How could it appear in the Wangchuan River?

This thing... was it transformed by those dark shadows at the bottom of the river?

"Are you scared?" Shi Dechun looked at Chen Mu happily.

"It really scared me." Chen Mu came back to his senses and said with lingering fear.

He ignored Old Man Shi's mischievous joke and quickly asked: "What on earth is that?"

"The underworld bug."

"The Yin spirits whose marks of past lives were washed away by the Forgotten River are like that."

"I was scared the first time I saw him, but after seeing him a lot, I got used to it." Shi Dechun looked like someone who had come before.

Chen Mu couldn't help but grit his teeth.

When he was in Jilong Mountain, he used Five Ghosts to Move Mountains to devour a batch of Yinming insects. Not only did they not die, but they got into the Five Ghosts' bags and turned into ghost monsters.

But here at the Wangchuan River, what he saw was a humanoid black shadow turning into a shadowy insect. Thinking again about the shapes of those human-shaped black shadows at the bottom of the river, no matter how you look at them, they look like ghosts shaped into human shapes.

So, under special conditions, the underworld bug and the underworld monster can transform into each other?

The human-shaped torrent of black smoke at the bottom of the river...

Could it be that they are all ghost monsters? !

Chen Mu raised his eyes to look at the Wangchuan River, which was unknown in width and length, and felt his scalp numb.

How many ghost monsters are there? !

It took him a long time to come back to his senses and looked at Shi Dechun doubtfully again.

The black shadows at the bottom of the river are ghost monsters. So what is the state of these so-called ghost spirits like Old Man Shi?

Also, according to Old Man Shi, all the Yin Ming insects went to Naihe Bridge to reincarnate. So where did the Yinmingworms in Jilong Mountain come from?

"I don't understand." Chen Mu couldn't help scratching his head.

"Forget it, I don't want to anymore."

"What a ghost. If you think about it, you will know that there are a lot of hidden troubles in it."

"We are just a little transparent. If we have that kind of skill, it would be more practical to gain some experience with the Dew Collection Spell."

According to what Old Man Shi said, Yin spirits like them don't need to eat, they only need dew to exist.

This kind of dew needs to be collected and ingested using special spells.

He raised his head and looked at Niu Sanmiao, the horned man who was searching for ghosts in the distance. He moved quietly and blocked himself with Shi Dechun. On the surface, he pretended to patrol the river bank, but in fact he checked the experience on the gray wall.

Dew Collection Spell: 913/10000;

This skill is a scripture composed of hundreds of Jiqu Naiya characters.

Similar to the incantations of the secret method of Qi training, they are transformed into another unique pronunciation through sentence fragmentation and changes in rhythm and tone, thereby inducing supernatural power and producing magical changes.

It's just that compared to the secret method of Qi training, he didn't feel any trace of mana from this dew-harvesting spell. Probably it can only be explained by Yin Ming's specialty spell.

Now that he has just made initial contact, he has no intention of going into details. Once he becomes more familiar with it, he will probably understand it.

"Tsk tsk, here comes the familiar part, liver!"

His original body has always been hidden in the dark space brought by the sky demon's true form.

Although the damage caused by the Tianhe water on his body is slowly recovering, it is still terrifying.

He was unfamiliar with the place and didn't know if it was dangerous, so he didn't dare to exchange his body rashly.

He decided to do as the Romans did and settle down first before thinking about the future.

By the Wangchuan River.

Chen Mu followed Niu Sanmiao's team and pretended to wander around all day.

I have encountered several Yin-haunted insects, and I have also seen a few Yin-haunted monsters that almost climbed onto the shore. Unfortunately, not one of them succeeded in becoming a Yin spirit. Niu Sanmiao's face looked ugly to the naked eye.

Especially when he found that Chen Mu was not working hard and looked like he was on a spring outing, his face became even more ugly.

After several glares and scoldings, Chen Mu respectfully agreed, and then in the blink of an eye he continued to hide behind Shi Dechun to gain experience.

Angry, Niu Sanmiao touched the whip at his waist several times, as if he wanted to slap him a few times.

Old man Shi Dechun was so frightened that he stayed away from Chen Mu several times.

Unfortunately, no matter where he went, Chen Mu would follow him, making the old man angry and itching his teeth. He wanted to yell at Chen Mu to leave, but he didn't dare.

He had not forgotten Niu Sanmiao's strange behavior last night, and he always felt that there was something unusual about the little bald head in front of him.

At night, it was still the same wilderness as yesterday, with a few bonfires just lit up.

Niu Sanmiao came to the campfire aggressively.

He looked at Chen Mu at a glance and held the whip in his right hand.

Just as he was about to speak, Chen Mu neatly handed over a palm-long yellow-skinned gourd.

The gourd was heavy, and it sank when you put it in your hand. Niu Sanmiao was stunned, and immediately pulled out the cork, and at a glance he saw a gourd full of water-like liquid.

He quickly put it to his nose and immediately smelled the fragrance of green grass. His face was suddenly stunned: "Jade Dew?! When did you learn the dew collecting spell?"

Chen Mu smiled and said: "Master Niu, are these jade dew enough?"

Niu Sanmiao groaned for a long time, then reluctantly removed his hand from the whip.

The probing hand took out a large transparent gel-like longan bead from the leather pouch at his waist and dropped it into the gourd.

He shook the gourd, then turned it over. No jade dew was seen flowing out, but only a cherry red ball was poured out.

Niu Sanmiao glanced at the ball in his palm and finally nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, let's continue tomorrow."

Chen Mu smiled and nodded.

Rather than picking up Yin spirits to earn travel expenses, he prefers to practice his skills and condense Jade Dew himself.

After four days of continuous use, the Dew Picking Curse has generated more than 1,200 experience points and is ready for use.

It took most of the day today, and although it was difficult, I managed to condense a gourd of jade dew.

From then on, as long as he handed over a gourd of jade dew every day and asked Niu Sanmiao to make jade dew beads, he would be able to collect enough travel expenses in just more than ten days, and naturally he would not be afraid of the bullhorn monster giving him trouble.
