Several days later, on the eastern mountainside of Tang Mountain.
Chen Mu stood by the water pool as billowing Black Smoke poured into its depths, where the Silver Scale Fish were swiftly devoured by the Five Ghosts Moving Mountains Technique.
A moment later, dozens of Black Smoke Balls half a man's height tall slowly emerged within the Five Ghosts Bag.
Chen Mu could not help but let out a long breath.
Though he had anticipated it beforehand, only after truly using the Heart-Linking Rope to cultivate a batch of Yin Soul Monsters did he finally feel completely at ease.
"The small-scale trial is complete. It can be expanded now."
The more Yin Soul Monsters there were, the stronger secret arts such as Candle Dragon Transformation and Ghost Gate Pass became. Yizhou was in chaos now, and only greater strength could make him feel more secure.
"This water pool is only seven or eight meters across at its widest, and it can raise merely twenty or thirty Silver Scale Fish in total."
"If I want to cultivate Yin Soul Monsters on a large scale, I'll still have to rely on the hot springs and streams scattered throughout Tang Mountain."
"Then the first step is to bring Tang Zong and the others under control." Chen Mu turned to look at the long valley in the distance.
In the past, Tangshan Courtyard had sent its farmed Silver Scale Fish to Sacred Heart Academy in exchange for a large amount of Dao Merit.
Now that Sacred Heart Academy had lost contact, the Silver Scale Fish could no longer be sent out and had become Tangshan Courtyard's private property.
More precisely, they had become the private property of Tang Zong and the other Supervisors.
"For my safety, I can only trouble your purses a little."
