Chapter 103 - 103 Plan B



Wang Chen was performing a soul-guiding ritual.

He was guiding the souls of four flower-spotted pigs which he had personally slaughtered.

Wang Chen knew.

Tu Erye was definitely laughing at him.

Laughing at his naivety.

Every day, Tu Erye butchered scores of fat pigs, taking countless lives year after year, his body almost solidifying from the dense Blood Fiend Energy, such that an ordinary Evil Wraith could possibly be annihilated upon contact he naturally did not believe in karma or retribution.

Actually, Wang Chen didn’t quite believe in it either.

He was just seeking some peace of mind.

He wasn’t sure if it was just his imagination, but after completing the soul-guiding ritual, he felt much more at ease.

Tu Erye personally escorted Wang Chen out of the slaughterhouse.

“The lad has potential,” he said vigorously patting Wang Chen on the shoulder, “If you change your mind, come find me!”

Tu Erye truly had the intention to cherish talent and thought that taking on an apprentice with exceptional aptitude wasn’t a bad idea.

In the world of immortal cultivation, a mentor-apprentice relationship is often closer than that of father and son.

If a master has no children,

then the disciple must take on the responsibility of caring for their old age and funeral arrangements!

Wang Chen respectfully performed a bow: “Thank you, Erye.”

Going down this path was out of the question.

He had already made it clear before that this place was not suitable for him.

He couldn’t earn any Human Virtue and what was the point in that!

If this had been right after Wang Chen’s initial arrival through transmigration, becoming an apprentice butcher wouldn’t have been too bad.

At least he would have meat to eat every day!

After saying goodbye to Tu Erye, Wang Chen returned to his home in the Yi Ten Defense Area.

He was certainly a bit disappointed, but such minor setbacks were far from enough to affect him.

After dinner, as was his routine, Wang Chen headed to the underground chamber to practice.

After the hour of Xu had passed, he quietly snuck through the long tunnel to the desolate outskirts.

Under the cover of nightfall, he left the sect’s gate and entered the Outer Domain, finally stopping on a wild mountain slope.

Ahead was the Chaotic Burial Mound.

Plan A of hunting Monster Beasts to earn Human Virtue had failed, so Wang Chen’s Plan B involved hunting Evil Wraiths!

This plan sounded incredulous, truly bordering on extremely audacious.

Evil Wraiths—are they that easy to provoke?

Others could hardly flee fast enough!

But Wang Chen dared to devise this plan because he was fully confident in it!

Recently, he had been practicing and honing his skills in the Outer Domain while scouting the surrounding environment.

He then discovered two Evil Nests.

The so-called Evil Nests refer to the dwelling places where Evil Wraiths linger.

Many Evil Wraiths have a fixed territory, and unless there’s a special reason or they’re attacked, they won’t easily leave their lair.

This is the same for many members of the Monster Race.

Actually, for Wang Chen at his current stage, the most cost-effective method to earn Human Virtue was by hunting low-tier Monster Beasts.

He already consumed a large amount of Monster Beast meat in his daily diet, and the beasts’ bodies contained various materials that could be sold for Spirit Stones.

Hunting wild Monster Beasts—many virtues in one action!

However, within several hundred li of this place, there was not even a glimpse of Monster Beasts.

Even common small creatures such as foxes and rabbits were few and far between.

If Monster Beasts did appear, they were either passing through by chance or being driven by someone.

So hunting Monster Beasts meant risking life and limb to venture deep into the boundless depths of the Heaven Cloud Mountain Range.

Each year, countless cultivators died or went missing in the process.

For Wang Chen, who had no hunting experience and was not very strong, this was a very poor choice.

By comparison, hunting evil wraiths had become the better option.

Of course, Wang Chen cherished his own life very much.

He wouldn’t provoke a powerful evil wraith, as he wasn’t an old immortal seeking to hang himself.

But relatively weaker ones, such as those of the Gray Roam Level or White Wanderer Grade, were definitely worth a try.

The two evil nests Wang Chen had previously discovered included one in the ruined city about a dozen miles to the southeast.

This abandoned ruin, its broken walls mostly covered by plants and vines, was unknown for how many years it had been deserted, but many evil wraiths roamed there at dusk.

However, the place gave Wang Chen a very dangerous feeling.

In the past, he had observed it from a distance and then decisively retreated without a second thought of tempting fate.

The second evil nest Wang Chen discovered, located half a mile ahead at the ancient Chaotic Burial Mound, was different.

He had scouted this evil nest several times before and after.

He found that it was mostly inhabited by “Wandering Night Spirits” and “Lantern Carrying Puppets”.

The former were the lowest-grade Gray Roam Level evil wraiths, while the latter were the slightly higher White Wanderer Grade.

In terms of cultivators, that would be equivalent to the Primary Tier and Intermediate Tier of Qi Cultivation!

With Wang Chen’s current combat ability, suppressing these two types of evil wraiths was completely within his capabilities.

In his waist-tied talisman belt and storage bag, he had a total of five hundred Evil-Repelling Talismans.

All of them were crafted by Grandmasters!

In addition to other talismans, pills, and magic artifacts such as the Soul-Shaking Bell, Autumn Water Sword, and Ruyi Golden Needle.

Wang Chen could say he was armed to the teeth.

Even so, he had no intention of charging directly into the Chaotic Burial Mound unleashing a one-man army.

Hunting monsters required skill.

The first targets Wang Chen set his sights on were some Wandering Night Spirits drifting around the edges of the Chaotic Burial Mound.

These spirits, formed from the souls of the deceased, maintained their existence by relying on the energy of the earth or the splendor of the moon. They could erode and devour a person’s Divine Soul and Yang energy, and even possess and haunt them.

One or two Wandering Night Spirits weren’t scary, and even physically strong mortals could fend them off.

But when there were many of them, it could become troublesome even for an ordinary Qi Cultivation cultivator.

In the evil nest, there were hundreds, perhaps thousands of Wandering Night Spirits. It was impossible to estimate their exact numbers with the naked eye.

As the saying goes, even ants can bite an elephant to death, and Wang Chen did not want to make the mistake of underestimating the enemy.

He first cast the Stealth Breath Technique on himself, concealing his breath without letting even a trace leak out, to prevent the evil wraiths from detecting him prematurely.

Then, Wang Chen stealthily approached the Chaotic Burial Mound, advancing about a hundred steps.

He found a concealed spot and crouched down.

At this time, the nearest Wandering Night Spirit was just over a hundred steps away from him.

Wang Chen formed a spell with his hands and cast the Cloud Rain Jue.

His Cloud Rain Jue had already reached the Minor Achievement level. In an instant, the moisture around him gathered quickly, forming rolling clouds in the air.

A light drizzle followed suit.

At that moment, Wang Chen operated the Ruyi Golden Needle to prick his middle finger, releasing a drop of crimson fresh blood.

With a flick of his finger, the drop of blood flew silently into the air and burst, blending into the rain.

Wang Chen was a sixth-layer Qi Cultivation cultivator who also practiced the Heavenly Dragon Vajra Right Method to the Golden Body Realm. Additionally, his pristine Yang energy was extremely pure due to his untouched essence; this essence mingled with his blood.

After diluting and dispersing in the rainwater, it immediately became a powerful lure to the wandering Wandering Night Spirits nearby.

These low-level evil wraiths were extremely sensitive to the essence of blood and Yang energy, mistaking it for delicious “food”, and thus they converged towards Wang Chen’s hiding place.

The number amounted to seven heads.

When the distance between these Wandering Night Spirits and Wang Chen shortened to twenty or thirty steps, he suddenly rose to his full height and rapidly slapped out with both palms.

Thousand Illusion Hand, Evil-Repelling Talisman, a burst of ten talismans!

In the next moment, bursts of Pure Yang Spiritual Light exploded instantly, striking the seven Wandering Night Spirits that had just flown toward him!
