Chapter 136 Formal Intervention in World Development
Tamayo didn't know much about the mist either. She herself hadn't tried it, because people in Japan had tried to enter the mist before, including the boss, and without exception, they were all hindered by the mist!
Given Boss Zha's cowardly and fear-averse nature, knowing that the mist could eliminate everything, he certainly wouldn't try it himself. Instead, he created an Upper Moon demon with maxed-out defensive and self-healing abilities to try it out.
As a result, they were swallowed up by the mist in the blink of an eye! They had no chance to resist!
Not long after that, Yoriichi Tsugikuni appeared and made the scumbag boss shut up. The scumbag boss had no mind or energy, and dared not to touch the mist, so he obediently hid.
Putting aside the matter of the mist for now, the immediate priority is to find the Demon Slayer Corps.
Although Tamayo and Yushiro, being demons, are always wary of the Demon Slayer Corps and certainly don't trust them yet, they do have ways to contact them!
After all, they share the same goal: to eliminate Muzan Kibutsuji. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. At the very least, they'll keep an eye on each other, and who knows, maybe one of them will come over and deliver the finishing blow or get an assist someday.
Having obtained what Li Muyang needed, Lu You and Tamayo didn't bother Tamayo and Yushiro any further. They got up, said goodbye, and left. On their way back, Li Muyang even helped them deal with a few ghosts who had secretly come looking for them before the two returned home.
Tamayo and Yushiro, who moved out of their temporary residence in the middle of the night, naturally discovered traces of the defeated demon on their way out, which increased their affection for the two.
Yes! At least they genuinely help when they need it!
Upon returning home, Li Muyang wore a somber expression, as if he were preoccupied with something on his mind.
Lu You naturally saw through Li Muyang's thoughts, and after thinking for a moment, she suggested, "Young Master, why don't I go and take a look?"
Li Muyang waved his hand: "No, it's too dangerous. With your abilities, investigating this matter would be suicide."
As he spoke, Li Muyang opened the task panel in front of him and showed it to Lu You.
Looking at the panel, Lu You's eyes widened in shock.
[Demon Slayer World: The host has come into contact with the hidden information of this world.]
Mission objective: Investigate what happened in the Central Plains shrouded in chaotic mist.
Task Reward: 5 Origin Points, +1 Employee Permission.
Note: This task is very difficult! For the host's safety, if you are unable to complete it successfully, it is recommended that you abandon it; there is no penalty.
Without even looking at Li Muyang, Lu You knew he was stunned. He muttered to himself, "I finally understand. No wonder the rewards for mentoring newcomers in this world are so generous. It turns out this world isn't as simple as it seems! There are definitely things that are extremely dangerous for us! We must not be careless!"
"Let's put the matters of the Mist and the Central Plains aside for now. Let's focus on taking good care of these three newcomers and helping them complete their beginner quests. We can deal with other things later! Investigate if you can, but don't worry about it if you can't finish the job!"
Lu You nodded silently. He realized that this matter was not as simple as he had imagined. It was definitely an existence above the extraordinary level. For him, a mere martial arts practitioner, this level was already a dimensional reduction attack!
Let's stop courting death!
Go home and sleep!
The next morning, Li Muyang explained the situation to the group who had just woken up, saying that he had obtained the method to contact the Demon Slayer Corps.
This was also a frustrating situation for Li Muyang. The map provided by the Administration Bureau system contained very little information; it was basically just a map of Japan, with no coordinates for the Demon Slayer Corps. This forced Li Muyang to take matters into his own hands and find the Demon Slayer Corps' whereabouts.
But it also served as a reminder to Li Muyang. It seems that the Administration Bureau doesn't have a complete grasp of all the different worlds. At least for this world, the Administration Bureau only has a general understanding of the situation.
Otherwise, Li Muyang wouldn't have been tasked with this investigation! If I'm not mistaken, besides mentoring newcomers, much of my work this time should be described as pioneering!
Upon learning that Li Muyang had found the whereabouts of the Demon Slayer Corps, the group was somewhat excited. They were finally going to make contact with the main characters of this world. Most importantly, the group, including Bai Yuxiu and Feng Ling'er, were very interested in those breathing techniques!
Without hesitation, before leaving, Li Muyang glanced at the small courtyard and house delivered by the system, thought for a moment, and then waved his hand to transfer them all into the gourd world.
Hmm! It would be foolish not to take advantage of a good deal! The house provided by the management bureau is quite nice! It wasn't just some random thatched hut they built to fool them.
The three newbies standing nearby all looked on with envy at Li Muyang's actions; this was clearly the legendary spatial equipment!
The system space provided by the Administration is not unable to hold such a thing, but there is a limitation: the host must pick up the item!
The three newbies want to pick up the house?
Hmm... let's talk about something else instead.
Yesterday's strenuous exercise was mainly to loosen up the three of them. In order to help them grasp the feeling of Qi more quickly, Li Muyang injected a strand of primordial spiritual energy into each of them to guide and assist their cultivation. It was a very common method, but it was very difficult to do without a certain level of skill.
Besides, it was also a hidden means of survival, though Li Muyang didn't tell the three of this explicitly.
Now that they've entered "travel mode," even without Li Muyang, Lu You, Bai Yuxiu, and Feng Ling'er using their lightness skills, it's not easy for the three newbies, Li Yichen, Feng Feifei, and Cao Zhi, to keep up with them. It was relatively easy at first, but they became increasingly slow to catch up later on.
This is where the educational significance comes into play. The primordial spiritual energy that Li Muyang introduced into the three people's bodies began to adjust their state, guide them to find the feeling of Qi, and at the same time actively help them circulate their Qi through the body.
Instantly, the three of them were energized! Like they'd been injected with adrenaline! They started running wildly!
The ordinary people suddenly experienced the thrill of cultivation, and the three of them got a little carried away, so they took the lead and ran out in a flash.
Seeing this, Li Muyang and his companions smiled speechlessly and stopped deliberately slowing down, using their lightness skills to catch up.
Don't get me wrong, it's not that you can't catch up without using light-body skills, but that using light-body skills is more energy-efficient!
And the light-footed skill is really cool!
The three people who were running wildly turned around and saw four people who seemed to float away. They didn't know when they had reappeared beside them. Gravity seemed to have no effect on them. They were as light as clouds and had great style!
Sure enough! When it comes to looking cool, we're the professionals!
While traveling, Li Muyang also guided the class: "Adjust your breathing, feel my original spiritual energy circulating through your bodies! You will definitely need to cultivate your own internal energy in the future, my internal energy is just a transition!"
Upon hearing this, the three of them began to try, observe and adapt to the changes in their bodies. It must be said that they all had quite good talent. With Li Muyang's guidance, they quickly followed their own feelings and kept up with the flow of power in their bodies, and their breathing frequency also moved in that direction.
Well, in a sense, the circulation of internal energy is also related to breathing.
To accommodate the three newbies' pace, the group traveled rather slowly, stopping frequently until dusk, when they finally stopped to rest in a small village.
However, as soon as they entered, they sensed something strange about the village! On the surface, everything seemed fine, but their sixth sense told them that they were definitely in trouble!
Even the cautious trio of newbies could sense something amiss, let alone Li Muyang and his group! The seemingly peaceful village was actually filled with a faint, pungent smell of blood!
But since they were already there, and adhering to the principle of cultivating their mindset, the group decided to stay overnight in a villager's home.
Later, I learned that many people in this village believed in a religious sect called... the Eternal Bliss Sect.
The group exchanged glances, thinking, "Damn it! We're in trouble!"
Why do I feel even more excited?
Who knows?
The three newbies had never seen blood before. The ghost they encountered was dealt with so cleanly by Li Muyang that they barely witnessed any exciting scenes. In addition, after experiencing speed today, their mindset has clearly changed a bit.
Let them experience what excitement is!
After the night had fallen and all was quiet.
The three newbies were awakened by a loud rumbling sound.
I opened my eyes and was immediately startled!
Several hideous ghosts stood at the door, staring at them with greedy, drooling eyes!
The primordial spiritual energy that Li Muyang infused into their bodies had an extraordinary attraction for ghosts! Most importantly, the three of them couldn't hide this aura, which is why the ghost that attacked earlier went straight for them!
The three were so frightened that they immediately broke through the window and fled. As soon as they came out, they saw that the original owners of the house were also lying in a pool of blood, their fate unknown!
Just as the three were terrified by the bloody scene before them, several ghosts pounced on them from behind! The three of them stood rooted to the spot, frozen in fear.
Having reached this point, that's enough.
Bai Yuxiu and Feng Ling'er, who were hiding in the shadows, made a move in an instant, sending several ordinary ghosts flying!
Unfortunately, it still didn't inflict a fatal wound. Realizing this, the two women no longer hesitated. They felt no pity for this cruel and inhuman creature!
kill!
A cold light flashed!
The Jade Water Sword and the Western King Sword, which have been buffed by Li Muyang, may be even more effective than the Sun Wheel Blade!
The two women easily killed several ghosts!
The three newbies were quite sensible; after the two girls appeared, they quietly hid to the side.
Lu You appeared right behind them and asked, "How was it? Were you scared?"
Li Yichen fell silent, Feng Feifei's smile was forced, and only Cao Zhi sighed, "As expected, he's still too weak! This feeling of being powerless is so frustrating!"
