Mysterious Slaughter Jade Book

(Brain storage, please put away your belongings, readers. Don't forget to pick them up on your way out.)

Dongyan Nanqing City, Rongchangfang Medical Hall.

Chen Lin forced a smile onto his face, accompanying the body's father out of the medical hall.

A month ago, he had transmigrated.

From Blue Star in his previous life, he had transmigrated to a high-level martial arts world where demonic beasts ran rampant and rifts could appear in the starry sky at any moment.

His identity had also changed from a high school student who had just finished his college entrance exams to a martial arts student who had been drugged during the martial arts exam and failed to get into the Martial Academy.

Even more tragically, as a collateral branch of the Nanqing City Chen Clan, if he hadn't entered the Martial Academy by the age of eighteen after being nurtured by the clan, the fate awaiting him and his family would be a life of debt servitude.

And if he wanted to change his current predicament, he only had two choices.

Either join the four major powers of the Xuantian Continent and become a martial artist under their banner, or pass the Demon Slayer Envoy assessment jointly held by the four major powers a month later and become a distinguished Demon Slayer Envoy.

Otherwise, he was absolutely determined not to experience the life of a slave working off debts in another world.

"A'lin! Are you alright?" Seeing Chen Lin lost in a daze again, Chen Hongbo asked with some worry.

"Father, I'm fine. Let's go home first!" Hearing the concern in Chen Hongbo's tone, Chen Lin replied calmly.

Seeing this, Chen Hongbo didn't dare to say anything more, for fear that a wrong word might further upset his child.

Walking a few steps ahead, Chen Hongbo brought over the donkey cart he had prepared.

At this moment, a familiar shout suddenly came from a distance: "A'lin, A'lin!"

Chen Lin looked up and saw a figure in the distance rapidly running towards the entrance of the medical hall.

After a brief recollection, Chen Lin found the memories related to this person.

This person's name was Zhang Shan, a childhood friend who had grown up with the original body.

Although they weren't biological brothers, having grown up together and trained in martial arts at the same academy, their bond was no less than that of brothers.

Seeing Zhang Shan covered in sweat and looking rushed, Chen Lin smiled and teased, "A'shan, why are you running so fast? Don't tell me Zhang Yunxiu went to your house to propose again!"

"Hello, Uncle Chen!" Zhang Shan first scratched his head and greeted Chen Hongbo sheepishly, then replied to Chen Lin, "Stop teasing me about that. I don't have any feelings for her. It's just that I heard Uncle Chen say a couple of days ago that your injuries were healed and you were leaving the medical hall today! I thought I'd rush over to see if you needed any help."

Chen Lin felt a little touched, then his heart stirred, and he asked, "With your strength, you've already secured a spot in the Nanqing Martial Academy, right!"

"Yes! The academy has already issued the official document. We just have to report to the Nanqing Martial Academy a month later!" Zhang Shan didn't want to upset Chen Lin, but he didn't know how to hide it, so he could only tell the truth.

"Mm! Keep up the good work!"

Chen Lin nodded and didn't say anything more. He got into the donkey cart his father had brought over, but his attention immediately shifted to the mysterious jade book that had recently appeared in his mind.

The jade book seemed to be made of exquisite jade, crystal clear throughout, emitting a faint bloody luster.

The cover of the book was inscribed with the word "Slaughter," mysterious and eerie.

As his thoughts moved, the jade book in his mind moved on its own without any wind, naturally flipping open to the first page.

[Slay to Become a God]

[Depending on the strength of the target of slaughter, you will gain varying amounts of Slaughter Points]

[Consume Slaughter Points to upgrade the level of cultivation techniques]

"This must be the introduction to my golden finger!"

Seeing that the first page had only a few sentences and no other text, Chen Lin secretly guessed.

With a slight shift of his thought, the jade book turned another page, and a portrait of a person and lines of data appeared before Chen Lin.

"Is this bald little man on the left me!"

Chen Lin frowned speechlessly, staring blankly at the little figure on the left page that looked very similar to him. Its demeanor was lifelike, as if he had been shaved bald, stripped naked, and pasted onto it.

As he continued to gaze, dense red dots and lines gradually appeared on the little figure, with light flowing and flickering, dazzling the eyes.

Chen Lin knew without thinking that the red dots and lines on the little figure must represent the acupoints and meridians in his body.

After viewing the portrait on the left, Chen Lin shifted his attention to the page on the right.

He saw that the data information on it was as follows:

[Host: Chen Lin]

[Realm: Late Stage Martial Disciple]

[Soul: 25]

[True Qi: 0]

[Physical Strength: 62]

[Slaughter Points: 0]

[Cultivation Techniques: Soul Strengthening Technique Level 1 (1/10), Basic Body Tempering Method Level 2 (12/20)]

[Martial Skills: Basic Swordplay Level 3 (13/30), Basic Movement Technique Level 2 (14/20)]

After reading the information on the jade book, Chen Lin thought to himself, "Analyzing from the jade book's introduction, if I want to quickly improve my strength, I need to continuously kill to obtain Slaughter Points, then consume Slaughter Points to upgrade the cultivation technique levels, and thereby improve my own strength. This way, as long as I keep killing, my strength can continuously and rapidly improve."

The thought of this outcome made Chen Lin incredibly happy.

After looking through this page of data, Chen Lin felt a bit curious about what was on the fourth page of the Jade Book.

However, no matter how he thought about it, the Jade Book remained still, which made him unable to help but flip forward another page. After confirming that he could flip through the Jade Book, he came to a conclusion.

That was, he hadn't met certain conditions for the fourth page of the Jade Book, so he couldn't view it yet.

Suppressing his excitement, method after method to quickly become stronger flashed through Chen Lin's mind.

But he extinguished each one.

Because to gain Slaughter Points, he had to kill continuously. Killing people was definitely unrealistic; he wasn't some madman who slaughtered innocents for no reason.

After eliminating the option of killing people, the only remaining targets for Chen Lin to gain Slaughter Points were wild beasts, fierce beasts, and demonic beasts.

With his current condition of recovering from severe injuries, he could barely manage to hunt wild beasts outside the city. But hunting fierce beasts or demonic beasts would likely be difficult. Perhaps it would be unclear who would be hunting whom!

Chen Lin thought for a while about a place where he could gain Slaughter Points without leaving the city, and felt there might be one place he could try.

"Huh!"

Zhang Shan stared ahead and suddenly kept patting Chen Lin's shoulder, whispering, "A'lin, look quickly, look quickly! That woman on horseback, isn't that Ding Yushi, who was very close to you a while ago? Why is she walking with Duan Xingze? They look like they're talking and laughing intimately! Did you have a falling out with Ding Yushi?"
