Wei Fan returned to the room again.
"Tiger's Breath Art, Break Through!"
Boom!
A mysterious energy exploded within his body, and Wei Fan's black hair began to grow wildly.
Roar!
A tiger's roar echoed from the void. Wei Fan's long hair fluttered in the wind, and an invisible pressure emanated from his body, like that of the king of beasts. A strange pattern also appeared on his forehead.
Wei Fan reached out and clawed at a scale weight hanging on the wall, crushing it in his hand. The iron scale weight softened like clay, oozing from between his fingers.
Grasping Iron into Mud!!!
"Brother, breakfast is ready!" Wei Yingying came in with breakfast and was so shocked by Wei Fan's current state that she froze!
Clang!
The bowl of steamed buns fell to the ground.
"Coming!" Wei Fan casually threw the crushed scale weight to the ground. His previously towering physique returned to normal, and even the muscles on his body became less prominent.
After breaking through with the Tiger's Breath Art, Wei Fan could now control his body at will.
"Brother, how did you do that? So cool!" Wei Yingying squatted on the ground, looking at the scale weight crushed by Wei Fan with astonishment.
"It's nothing, just a little stronger!" Wei Fan said. "We don't need to eat these steamed buns. Go buy some meat buns from Granny Wang."
"Okay, Brother!" Wei Yingying hopped out the door.
At this moment, Wei Fan added, "Ying'er, don't tell anyone about my cultivation!"
"I know!" Wei Yingying nodded understandingly.
Wei Fan was very relieved about this. He and his sister depended on each other and had always trusted each other deeply.
Afterward, Wei Fan looked at his status panel again.
Name: Wei Fan
Cultivation Technique: Tiger's Breath Art (True Intent Level)
[True Intent State: Special Effects, Immense Strength, Tiger's威震慑 (Tiger's Intimidation).]
Energy: 2
"After breaking through, my strength has increased by at least two thousand jin. If I use the True Intent state, my strength is endless."
Wei Fan's lips curled into a smile.
This feeling of his body being filled with power made him feel incredibly safe and exhilarated.
If he encountered the White Ghost Oddity again tonight, Wei Fan was confident he could kill it!
He took out a bronze mirror and saw that his face was more angular than before, with an indescribable majestic aura. This was likely the influence of the True Intent of his cultivation technique.
Wei Fan closed his eyes and then opened them again. His imposing aura receded, and his demeanor returned to being ordinary.
He had just awakened his system and didn't want to attract attention yet.
Because no matter the era, the hearts of men were more terrifying than ghosts.
Before he possessed absolute power, Wei Fan decided to develop low-key.
Although Wushan Village was called a village, it was quite large, with a population of over two thousand people.
And in this chaotic era where strange creatures ran rampant, such isolated human settlements were strictly hierarchical.
Wushan Village was arranged in a circular shape, with a giant stone monument in the center called the Monster Suppressing Stone, which could resist most incursions from ghosts and oddities.
Therefore, the closer one was to the Monster Suppressing Stone, the safer it was.
Thus, Wushan Village was divided into an inner and outer ring. The inner ring was safe and comfortable, where the wealthy and powerful resided.
Wei Fan lived in the outer ring, on the outskirts of the village, in houses made of yellow mud and thatched roofs.
Furthermore, the people in the outer ring had to engage in production or farming, and they had to hand over 70% of their production annually, which was very strict.
Although they received protection from the village in return, it was more like the people in the inner circle never cared about the lives of those in the outer circle, treating them more as 'production tools.'
Wei Fan's family originally lived in the inner ring, but after his parents sacrificed themselves fighting oddities, they were driven out. Fortunately, they left behind a substantial inheritance, otherwise, upon reaching the age of fifteen, he would have been forced into production.
A moment later, Wei Yingying returned with the meat buns, her face pale and nervous.
"Brother, Granny Wang at the bun shop said that that thing appeared last night, and two people died?"
"Mm," Wei Fan nodded. "Let's eat first. The outer ring is becoming more and more unsafe. Today, I'm going to apply to join the Night Watch Team. In a few days, we can move to the inner ring!"
"The Night Watch Team?" Wei Yingying was stunned at first, then became a little angry. "Brother, the Night Watch Team is too dangerous. I forbid you to go! We're fine living here."
"It's okay, if I dare to go, it's because I have a way to ensure my safety!" Wei Fan said.
By joining the Night Watch Team, he could obtain more cultivation techniques and gain energy points by killing oddities.
Therefore, joining the Night Watch Team was currently the best option.
As for safety, although the death rate among night watchmen was high, there were still a few powerful captains and vice-captains. This indicated that as long as one had sufficient strength, survival was still possible.
Wei Fan had observed the vice-captain in action from a distance. His strength was immense. If he could obtain their cultivation techniques and use the system to instantly max them out, he would also become very strong!
