Midnight Terror!
Chen Wang never expected that a trip outside would lead to him finding equipment everywhere.
He couldn't help but feel a little sorry for the big man who suddenly attacked him that day.
"Without him, we wouldn't have been able to find all this equipment."
Chen Wang thought to himself.
However, the sight of that Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator killing in a frenzy left him with lingering fear.
"I wonder where this Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator comes from."
A thoughtful look appeared in Chen Wang's eyes.
The situation in the Market feels increasingly severe lately.
The following afternoon
Chen Wang cultivated in a secluded bamboo forest, his Sword Qi extremely sharp.
He wore a small gourd at his waist, which looked like an ornament, but it was actually a sword- Sword Nurturing Gourd cultivators valued highly.
After finishing his Sword Qi cultivation, Chen Wang stopped, took some pills to refine it, and recovered his cultivation level.
He was deeply impressed by the style of that Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator that day.
"During the Qi Refining stage, the internal Law Power is weak, and it is easy to be injured when someone suddenly gets close. But once you reach the Foundation Establishment Realm, it seems to be a different story."
"The advantage of body cultivators lies in tempering their bodies; even in close combat, they may not be able to defeat cultivators in the Qi Refining stage."
Chen Wang thought to himself.
He has never fought against a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator.
But last night's battle also left a very deep impression on him.
Chen Wang restrained his thoughts. What if one day he suddenly found himself dealing with a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, only to discover that the other party was extremely skilled in close combat, with fierce palm strikes and domineering True Qi? He would be completely caught off guard.
After finishing his training, Chen Wang returned to the Market.
This period is not peaceful, and he will not practice his Law Technique to the point of exhaustion when he goes out to practice, so as to maintain his basic combat strength.
After Chen Wang returned, he stewed a pot of beef, using beef shank, because the Three-Tailed Demon Ox had strong muscles.
In the past, Chen Wang could barely afford a piece of Demon Beast Meat, but now that he can hunt in the mountains, he has plenty of Demon Beast Meat.
He braised the beef shank to perfection, then took out a bottle of wine and took a few sips.
He did not drink excessively here. After eating and drinking his fill, he rested for a while and then began to meditate and cultivate.
He was extremely clean in his dealings and never provoked any powerful figures. He always killed to silence witnesses, leaving no trace.
There are no enemies in the Cultivation World now, so we can develop our strength in a low-key manner.
Gao Xingqiu and his group were gathered around a campfire in the mountains, roasting several rabbits.
At this point, the roasted rabbit had turned golden brown and was filled with a wonderful aroma.
This man, who came from a military background, was clearly also very skilled at grilling meat.
He was a calm and composed man, skilled in strategy, and the three people traveling with him all admired him greatly.
One of them said with some concern, "We should have left long ago. If we continue like this, we might really be targeted."
The seemingly honest-looking man, who wielded an extremely sinister Law Artifact— a long rope—took a sip of wine and said, "It's so chaotic here lately, it's a good opportunity to take a few more heads. If we don't seize this chance to make a fortune, when will the brothers ever get their chance to rise to the top?"
Gao Xingqiu originally intended to leave, but the others who were with him had a disagreement. They were ambitious and wanted to make a fortune from this.
Although they obeyed Gao Xingqiu as their leader, they did not actually have a strict subordinate relationship.
Furthermore, Gao Xingqiu values loyalty and is unwilling to offend his brothers as long as it doesn't involve principles.
He didn't drink alcohol; instead, he tore off a piece of roasted rabbit leg and nibbled on it in small bites.
Despite his rugged appearance, this man ate meat with surprising care, chewing it very thoroughly.
He remained silent at that moment.
The man who had suggested leaving earlier said, "Brother, you have to say something! This is too dangerous!"
The honest-looking man said again, "What's there to be afraid of? If we rogue cultivators don't fight, how can we survive?"
Another person chimed in, "That's right, Wang Gui is right. This is a good opportunity. The Red Cloud Sect can afford it. If we don't seize this chance to make a fortune, when will we ever accumulate enough resources?"
Gao Xingqiu looked up and smiled, "I originally planned to take you away, but you were unwilling. We have indeed gotten too involved in this matter."
The honest-looking man said, "Brother, I still want to give it a shot."
Gao Xingqiu said, "I understand your thoughts. Let's wait two more days, and then we'll leave."
This time, the honest-looking man didn't say anything more and kept his head down in silence.
Just as the four had finished their meal, the man who had been about to leave suddenly exclaimed, "Watch out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly clutched his ankle, then pointed a finger, and a sharp Sword Qi pierced through the air.
Boom! Dust billowed up from the ground!
A black scorpion had just stung him on the ground, and his face immediately turned dark. He quickly took out Detoxification Pill from his pocket.
Everyone's expression changed!
Suddenly, the group noticed many shadowy figures around them, numbering more than a dozen! Moreover, a chilling wind blew around them, as if Evil Spirit were whispering.
Gao Xingqiu's expression was stern; the dozen or so figures around him seemed to be superhuman! "The Profound Yin Sect!"
He frowned immediately.
A rogue cultivator was hiding in the Market.
He was hired by the Red Cloud Sect specifically to handle this matter.
The high pay attracted many people to come.
The man's name was Zhou Cheng. He had been secretly observing the Market after someone set it on fire.
Furthermore, he also came to investigate some matters to determine whether there were any other forces' spies in this area.
In the stillness of the night,
He was resting in bed when a figure suddenly squeezed through the crack in the door, moving very quietly without making a sound.
After squeezing through, one could see a pale-faced man, his body flattened, like a squashed paper doll! His lips were blood-red, his hair disheveled, and his eyes extremely sinister.
This is Wrathful Ghost created by someone, capable of summoning souls and claiming lives; it is extremely powerful!
"Aaaaaah!"
In the Market of night, the screams became extremely piercing and loud! Chen Wang suddenly opened his eyes, his heart sinking.
"Something's happened!"
His senses were extremely sharp, and the screams came from a house not far from him.
Many people in the Market were awakened by the screams and went out to check.
When one of the rogue cultivators who was with Zhou Cheng opened the door to go out, he suddenly found an old man standing at the door.
The old man's skin was wrinkled like tree bark, his hands hung at his sides, and his eyes were extremely sinister! He stood there silently.
As soon as the rogue cultivator pushed open the door, the old man reached out with both hands and instantly grabbed him by the neck! The rogue cultivator was carrying Evil Ward Talisman, but it had no effect whatsoever.
The old man was not a ghost, but a proper cultivator.
His fingernails were thin and long, seemingly delicate, but actually incredibly sharp.
The rogue cultivator didn't even have time to scream before his neck was pierced, and he died a violent death!
Similar things still happen in the Market!
As Chen Wang pushed open the door and went out, he made eye contact with the old man.
The rogue cultivator twitched once, then became unable to move and died completely!
The old man grinned at Chen Wang, revealing a set of gleaming white teeth!
