In a dilapidated little courtyard.

Ling Yi looked at the plainly dressed, bitter-faced young man in front of him and was somewhat speechless.

Is this the Protagonist?

Ling Yi had never seen Protagonist looked so, well, so miserable.

It's not ugly, it's bitter.

It's the kind of look that makes anyone feel, with just one glance, that this young man must have suffered a terrible fate.

This is indeed the case.

The boy's parents were both Golden Core Realm cultivators who ran a pill and talisman shop in the Mist Mountain Range Market.

My father was an alchemist, and my mother was a talisman master.

They mainly sold elixirs and talismans, and lived a comfortable and affluent life.

After all, both alchemists and talisman makers are among the most lucrative secondary professions for cultivators.

This Danfu shop has been operating in the Mist Forest Market for over thirty years.

It's also a fairly well-known place in the Mist Mountain Range Market.

Even the market owners would greet them with a respectful bow and address them as "fellow Daoist."

But just six months ago, the Shuangshuang perished during an exploration of a secret realm.

Ultimately, the body was taken back by the market keeper himself.

Without his parents' protection, this young Young Master's life is going to be miserable.

With the supply of elixirs and talismans cut off, the elixir and talisman shops naturally had to close down.

However, the boy's parents left him a large fortune.

Unfortunately, this young man possessed a useless Spiritual Root that prevented him from cultivating.

As the saying goes, "A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime."

The Immortal Cultivation Realm is inherently Strong Digestion. How can an ordinary person without cultivation protect the legacy of a powerful Golden Core Realm cultivator?

Fortunately, the boy was somewhat intelligent.

Knowing he couldn't protect the storage ring, he might as well use it to find a powerful backer and eke out the rest of his Yu Sheng.

So the boy went to the market keeper, who had previously been on good terms with his parents.

Although they survived, they were left to fend for themselves.

This shows that the shop owner wasn't a good person either.

And this young Protagonist with a bitter face is none other than Ye Chen, the Protagonist of this world.

However, the Protagonist's name is very Protagonist, and with that bitter gourd-like appearance, well, it seems...

Well, you can't say she's not the Protagonist.

Some Protagonist in tragic novels do indeed have a somewhat bitter appearance.

It's just not as exaggerated as this bitter gourd.

It's not that they look bitter, but rather that their demeanor is bitter.

It's that kind of bitter gourd-like quality that makes bad people want to bully you just by looking at you, but good people can't help but want to protect you just by looking at you.

However, Ye Chen at this moment is no longer the Ye Chen he once was.

He was a transmigrator with a system.

The real Ye Chen died three minutes ago.

He was stabbed to death by Flying Sword that appeared out of nowhere.

Not only Ye Chen died, but Chu Wu also died.

They were all killed by the same Flying Sword.

Subsequently, Ye Chen and Ling Yi Soul Transmigration one after the other.

One master and one servant, now both have become time travelers.

Why did Ling Yi know these plot details this time?

Because Ling Yi found a jade slip in Chu Feng's arms.

In addition to recording daily cultivation insights, alchemy, and talisman-making experiences, the jade slip also recorded all experiences from the beginning of his cultivation journey to his death.

It's roughly equivalent to a diary.

Even in his last moments before death, he took this jade slip out of his storage bag and, with his final consciousness, recorded the information he saw on the jade slip.

It was precisely because Chu Feng took the jade slip out of his storage bag that it wasn't taken away.

The one who killed the master and servant from the shadows only took their storage bag and didn't search them thoroughly.

That's why the jade slip was preserved.

At least Ling Yi, who had transmigrated here, wasn't completely blind.

As for Little Hei, it didn't appear beside Ling Yi; no one knows where it traveled to.

Or perhaps it's already cold?

" Chu Wu, we need to find a way to leave here. We can't stay in this market town any longer," Ye Chen said, gazing at the dark night sky.

By now, the Protagonist Ye Chen should have finished receiving the original owner's memories and activated his cheat ability, right?

Ling Yi had a guess in his mind.

"It's all up to you Young Master master," Ling Yi Fist Dao.

Ye Chen then turned to Ling Yi: " Chu Wu, since the other party only killed me and not you, it proves that their target was only me."

Clearly, Ye Chen was unaware that Chu Wu had also passed away.

And it's no longer the original form.

Like him, he was a time traveler.

"You possess Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation and have already become First Pin alchemist and First Pin talisman master, which is enough for you to survive in this market."

"Following me is a life-or-death situation; you may leave on your own."

Ling Yi rolled his eyes. Damn it, first they said "we" should leave, now they're saying they're afraid of getting involved and want Laozi to leave?

Is this a test? Isn't it a test?

Ye Chen roughly understood from the original owner's memories that this Chu Wu was an extremely loyal being.

But they still made this attempt.

If Chu Wu stays, it proves that Chu Wu is indeed loyal.

But if Chu Wu leaves...

For Ye Chen, this wasn't a bad thing either.

At least one potential threat has been eliminated.

Of course, Ye Chen hoped that Chu Wu could stay.

In any case, Ye Chen has just transmigrated and is still just an ordinary person.

With Chu Wu, a cultivator in the Middle Foundation Establishment Realm, protecting them, they are naturally much safer.

In a critical moment, he could even sell Chu Wu life.

He was even more frightened now, Ling Yi bluntly said, " Young Master, you're on your own. Chu Wu won't go to his death with you."

Without Chu Wu, he, an ordinary person, couldn't even leave the Formation outside the market.

Once it's discovered that Ye Chen is still alive, he'll likely be hunted down by the mastermind behind it all.

Without any supplies, he probably wouldn't survive.

Even having a cheat code won't help.

" Young Master, my life was saved by the Master and Madam, and my cultivation level was also bestowed upon me by them. I, Chu Wu, am not such an ungrateful person."

It's just acting, as if anyone can't do it!

Ling Yi certainly wouldn't leave just like that.

There was no other reason; I was simply curious about what kind of cheat ability the Protagonist had.

What does "magnification/reduction by 10,000 times" mean, and how exactly does it work?

"Alright, in that case, let's leave the market tonight." Hearing Ling Yi's words, Ye Chen nodded in satisfaction.

" Young Master, please wait a moment. We cannot leave the market in this state."

"The entrances and exits of the market are guarded. No matter what, we will be detected as soon as we leave the market."

"So what's your idea?" Chu Feng asked, frowning.

"In half a month, an auction will be held in the market, which will attract a large number of cultivators from outside. When the auction ends, we can leave disguised as independent cultivators."

Chu Feng nodded. "You're right, I had completely forgotten about the upcoming auction."

"Leaving now is too risky; if discovered, death is almost certain."

"During the auction, it's a mixed bag of people, so sneaking out is much easier."

" Young Master's ability to think of these things so quickly is truly remarkable," Ling Yi casually praised.

"However, besides this reason, my subordinates also need some time to master a secret technique."

"If we succeed, our subordinates' Combat will increase significantly, and our chances of escaping the market will be much higher."

Ye Chen feigned a worried, bitter expression and asked, "Are there any side effects?"

"I don't know. I obtained it by chance from an Ancient Tomb. According to the secret technique, cultivating this technique can strengthen the Primordial Spirit a hundredfold or a thousandfold."

"If that's true, with a thousand times the power of my Primordial Spirit, my Spiritual Sense attack could Instant Kill Golden Core Peak cultivator, and might even withstand a Nascent Soul."

"Really? That's incredible!" Ye Chen exclaimed in shock.

"What's the name of this secret technique? Can I take a look?"

Ling Yi took out a jade slip and handed it directly to Ye Chen: "This secret technique is the God Ling Method, but I can't understand some of the characters, which is why I dare not practice it rashly."
