It was late at night, and it was pouring rain.

Ordinary cultivators' visual perception would certainly be affected by it.

However, Chen Wang was Stormcaller and rain, and being in the midst of it made his senses even sharper. Not only that, he used his mental power to search, keeping a close eye on the small red snake. Whoosh! The small red snake darted through the forest at incredible speed.

This creature possessed sentience and had already transformed into a demon. It was connected to the red-clad woman's aura, and after her death, its aura weakened considerably.

However, they were still frantically trying to escape.

Chen Wang's face was somewhat pale. Fighting two Qi Refining experts and manipulating Law Artifact had greatly depleted his energy. He locked onto the small red snake with his spiritual power, transforming it into a steel spike and blasting it forward! The small red snake immediately stiffened.

Chen Wang took a few steps forward, moving with incredible speed, and quickly arrived in front of the small red snake.

Whoosh! Chen Wang opened his mouth and spat out flames— Tier 3 Genetic Soldier.

Firebird!

It has the ability to breathe fire.

The flames seemed to have eyes, trapping the little red snake before it could react. The snake's body was charred black and its skin torn open, but it did not die; it tried to escape from the sea of fire.

Chen Wang raised the Shotgun and pulled the trigger.

Just as they predicted the location where the little red snake was moving, boom!

The little red snake exploded instantly, turning into a pile of minced meat.

"This creature is extremely spiritual and fire-resistant; thankfully, it didn't escape."

Chen Wang breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He had previously used the Firebird's flames to control the little red snake's movements.

Although the creature wasn't burned to death immediately by the flames, it was eventually killed by him. To put his mind at ease, Chen Wang unleashed another burst of flames, burning away all the remaining flesh and blood.

During the thunderstorm, the Firebird's abilities were somewhat hampered, but fortunately, the impact was minimal. Chen Wang quickly returned to the area where they had just fought, and seeing the two corpses still there, he immediately went forward and took everything from the burly old man.

The red-clad woman's body was smashed to pieces. Chen Wang searched for a long time but couldn't find Storage Artifact. "Were they smashed, or did the woman not bring any with her?"

Chen Wang frowned.

However, I didn't pay too much attention to it.

He concentrated his Fireball Technique Law Power and cast Fireball Technique, which could melt gold and iron, directly burning the two corpses to ashes.

Chen Wang was very experienced in doing this kind of thing; after a heavy rain, there would be no trace left on this place.

Chen Wang quickly returned to the Slum Area.

There was some chaos in the Slum Area at this time.

The couple had been attacked by the burly old man; the male cultivator died on the spot, and the female cultivator was coerced and nearly violated and turned into a plaything. Their cries, filled with anguish, finally caught the attention of the nearby neighbors.

At this moment, many independent cultivators gathered here, discussing the matter, while several disciples of the Red Cloud Sect were asking questions.

Previously, in this Desolate Mountain and secluded place, with thunder and lightning raging in the sky, Chen Wang could kill and shoot people in the forest without anyone noticing.

At this moment, in the Slum Area, fearing to attract attention, Chen Wang quietly returned to his house, changed into clean clothes, and dried his hair.

Then he took an umbrella and went outside to watch the commotion from the crowd.

"Alas, Qi Liu is so pitiful. She was murdered at home."

"Who can argue with that? These are truly turbulent times."

"This makes Xu Wan a widow too; it's like a bolt from the blue."

Chen Wang was holding Yellow Paper Umbrella in the crowd.

The crowd was buzzing with discussion.

Occasionally, I'll chat with someone I know well and share my thoughts.

A moment later, Chen Wang noticed that Feng Lin was also standing outside the crowd, holding an umbrella. She had an oval face and a graceful figure.

Standing outside the crowd at this moment, one feels a strange sense of desolation.

I don't know if it's just my imagination.

Some time ago, Feng Lin's personality changed somewhat; she became alluring and seductive, and didn't seem overly sad. Chen Wang rejected Feng Lin advances several times, but now, seeing Feng Lin again, he sensed a further change in her demeanor.

She seemed a bit more bland, lacking some of her allure. Chen Wang withdrew his gaze and did not continue to observe her.

At this moment, the Red Cloud Sect Disciple took the female cultivator back to the Red Cloud Sect for questioning. Then another group of Red Cloud Sect Disciple arrived and investigated each house one by one. At this time, it was pouring rain. Some people were still fast asleep, or had drunk too much, or were in remote areas and had not yet arrived. Bang bang bang!

"Who goes there!"

"Open the door! Red Cloud Sect Disciple are searching for thieves!"

Many Red Cloud Sect Disciple belonging to the Enforcement Team arrived tonight and were checked one by one.

Although the status of independent cultivators in the Slum Area is low, they are still within the sphere of influence of the Red Cloud Sect.

Especially now that someone has infiltrated this place to commit murder, with ulterior motives, the Red Cloud Sect is extremely concerned about this.

After a night of searching, the Red Cloud Sect could not find the burly old man.

That makes sense; the burly old man had already been burned to ashes by Chen Wang, so finding him would be a miracle.

When the Red Cloud Sect Disciple were conducting their search, one of them suddenly fled, looking somewhat panicked!

"Chase him! This man must be a thief who has infiltrated this area; we can't let him escape!"

The Red Cloud Sect Disciple shouted and gave chase!

The Red Cloud Sect Disciple who came this time numbered large, and they quickly captured the man.

Nothing more was said that night, and nothing further happened.

Chen Wang had some guesses about the Red Cloud Sect's strong reaction tonight.

Therefore, after returning, he took his Yellow Paper Umbrella and went out to watch and talk with acquaintances.

However, he stayed in his room afterwards and underwent a check by the Red Cloud Sect Disciple, and there were no problems.

If he wants to continue working in this place in the future, he needs to be prepared for these things. "Better safe than sorry."

Chen Wang then began to examine his spoils. The Dark Light Shuttle left behind by the woman in red was palm-sized, extremely sharp, and a Superior Grade Magic Tool, its power even surpassing that of his own flying sword.

"Among Superior Grade Magic Tool, this Dark Light Shuttle is considered top-notch."

Chen Wang made a judgment,

He obtained a Black Iron Shield from the burly old man.

The shield moved at will, and Chen Wang's attacks were extremely fast. Even flying sword sneak attacks could be blocked by this Black Iron Shield, which showed that it was a Law Artifact very suitable for dealing with surprise attacks. It was just a pity that it was covered with cracks and was already damaged, greatly reducing its power.

"I'm afraid it will be completely destroyed after withstanding a few more attacks."

Initially, when Chen Wang was fighting the burly old man, he only wanted to smash the Black Iron Shield. But now that the Black Iron Shield had become his own Law Artifact, he couldn't help but feel a little heartache.

Besides that, there was the burly old man's Storage Artifact, which had a volume of about ten cubic meters.

His Storage Artifact contained many items, including two Mid-Grade Spirit Stones, sixty-three Low-Grade Spirit Stone, more than a dozen primary and intermediate-grade Talisman Paper, a pile of bottles and jars containing poisons, qi-tonifying spirit medicine, and even aphrodisiacs. It also contained a Low Grade Magic Tool, a long sword with a tiger's head carved on the hilt, and a piece of wood imbued with the aura of Thunder Fire.

"Thunderstruck Wood!"

Chen Wang was stunned for a moment. Holding the wood in his hand, he could feel the pure yang energy within it, which made him feel a surge of yang energy.

"A good thing to deal with evil spirits."

In addition, there was a yellowed booklet.

"Tiger Strength Bull Demon Fist?"

Chen Wang picked up the booklet and couldn't help but pause in surprise. After opening the booklet, his eyes immediately lit up with light. "Body Cultivation Method!"

In the Cultivation World, Cultivation Method are mostly recorded on Jade Slip because paper is difficult to preserve and risks water damage, fire damage, and insect infestation if it is to be passed down over a long period. When he first saw this booklet, he assumed it contained the cultivation insights of that burly old man.

Unexpectedly, it contained a body cultivation Cultivation Method! Body cultivation techniques are extremely rare; even the local Hundred Treasures Pavilion doesn't sell any body cultivation Cultivation Method, which shows how unpopular they are.

Chen Wang picked up the booklet and began to peruse it. He discovered that the Tiger Strength Bull Demon Fist contained a body-training Cultivation Method divided into nine levels, each step representing a new level.

It is divided into three levels: polishing the skin, muscles, and tendons. Each polishing can enhance Blood Qi, and strengthen the body.

The manual on body training also records a Cultivation Method a Pill Formula at the end. The name is simple: Body Tempering Pill. However, the effect is excellent. It can improve Qi and Blood and strengthen the body. However, it contains many kinds of medicinal materials and is quite expensive.

"There's a reason why body cultivation is unpopular. It consumes far more resources than Qi cultivation, and judging from the description, it's extremely difficult to get started, with few shortcuts."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

The Tiger Strength Bull Demon Fist, once mastered, will probably take even longer to cultivate than any other internal Cultivation Method.

Furthermore, body cultivators have limited methods; if they cannot get close, they are easily kited to death by Qi cultivators. Therefore, many body cultivators need to equip themselves with powerful protective magic Law Artifact to be more secure and maximize their advantages.

But at this moment, a smile appeared on Chen Wang's lips. "With my current physique, cultivation shouldn't be difficult."

Even without the aid of the Body Tempering Pill, Chen Wang was confident in his ability to cultivate the Tiger Strength Bull Demon Fist.

"The old man isn't much of a person, but he has a lot of good stuff."

Chen Wang judged that the Old Dog must have obtained this body cultivation manual later.

That Old Dog either didn't cultivate at all, or his cultivation level wasn't high enough.

Because he had not sensed anything particularly powerful about the old man's physique before.

"Body cultivation has age requirements; if you start cultivating after your Qi and Blood have weakened, you will achieve half the results with twice the effort."

So far, this old man is the richest cultivator Chen Wang has ever killed; two Mid-Grade Spirit Stones are equivalent to two hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stone.

The gains this time were enormous, but the process was also extremely dangerous.

The woman in red was far more powerful than him. If he had been determined to leave from the start, or if he hadn't had so many tricks up his sleeve and acted so skillfully, he probably wouldn't have been able to keep her here.

"We must be careful when we encounter cultivators of such high level in the future."

Chen Wang sighed inwardly. His cultivation level was still too low. "Now that I have the Tiger Strength Bull Demon Fist, if I cultivate it properly, I might be able to go very far on the path of body cultivation."

The next day,

The clouds dispersed and the rain stopped, revealing clear skies, but a tense atmosphere lingered in the Red Cloud Sect Market. Last night, someone had infiltrated the Slum Area and killed the rogue cultivator Qi Liu.

Later, another spy hiding in the Slum Area was caught.

When Chen Wang got up and went out early in the morning, he sensed this unusual atmosphere.

The figures of Red Cloud Sect Disciple can be seen everywhere in the Slum Area.

The rogue cultivators, being at the very bottom of the Red Cloud Sect, were abuzz with discussion, especially about last night's murder, which had deeply shocked them. The previous killings of Red Cloud Sect Disciple distant to them, and even the arrests of spies hiding in the area only made them somewhat nervous.

But last night, some rogue cultivators did indeed die at the hands of those people, which made them feel a sense of shared sorrow.
