[Heavenly Merit +4]

Wang Chen, who had just entered the tunnel, noticed the information prompt slowly fading from his sight.
He knew that the severely injured cultivator had died under his Fire Crow Technique.
Wang Chen’s heart was very calm.
There was neither excitement nor the slightest guilt.
He had tried his best to save the other party, but couldn’t overcome the formidable evil beast.
If anything.
It was this cultivator who led the evil beast to Wang Chen’s home; he had done all he could by offering his help.
In the end, he also relieved the other party from suffering.
So these 4 points of Heavenly Merit, Wang Chen accepted with a clear conscience.
But why was it 4 points?
Previously, Wang Chen had killed a traveling merchant and a member of the Grey Eye Thieves, each time gaining 6 points of Heavenly Merit.
Wang Chen didn’t have the time to ponder this question.
Because he heard violent noises coming from the room above.
Bang!
Crack!
In the next moment, the trapdoor to the entrance of the tunnel was shattered by a furry beast’s claw.
A huge head squeezed in!
It was unmistakably the head of a Wolf Beast.
The creature was in a sorry state.
The fur on its head and face was all singed, and large patches of skin were cracked and oozing blood.
Clearly, it had been seriously injured by the exploding Fire Crows!
The Fire Crow Technique was undeniably more deadly to evil beasts than the Geng Metal Finger.
The evil beast looked to be utterly enraged.
It had chased Wang Chen into the bedroom and discovered the unfinished tunnel.
The Wolf Beast let out a low roar, its blood-red wolf eyes fixed deathly on Wang Chen inside the tunnel.
Desperately trying to squeeze through!
But the beast was somewhat larger than a calf, with a muscular body and thick limbs.
It forced half of its body through.
Then its bulging belly got stuck.
The Wolf Beast had just swallowed the cultivator’s arm and leg; it had no time to digest them.
Despite this, it showed no intention of backing down, its front paws desperately scratching inside the tunnel.
Both of its hind legs pushed at the same time.
It actually managed to force another portion of its body inside.
This was getting interesting!
Wang Chen, witnessing the scene from ahead, laughed.
When the Wolf Beast first squeezed through.
To say he wasn’t the least bit panicked would be a lie.
But then he turned around and saw the Wolf Beast stuck at the entrance.
Wang Chen immediately felt no panic.
For ease of access, the passage was dug at a downward slope.
And for defense, it was made very narrow on purpose.
Moreover, all four walls of the tunnel had been reinforced by Wang Chen with the Mudstone Technique.
The thickness was up to two feet!
The Wolf Beast’s claws were sharp, yet they couldn’t scrape through the hardened walls of the Mudstone Technique at Great Achievement level.
This put it in a real bind.
Wang Chen immediately curled up and turned around as quickly as possible.
Facing the Wolf Beast at the entrance head-on.
Die, beast!
Wang Chen suddenly struck out with his right palm.
A burst of flame exploded from his palm, and a crimson Fire Crow suddenly materialized, spreading its fiery wings and swooping towards the Wolf Beast.
The distance between Wang Chen and the Wolf Beast was only about ten meters.
The Fire Crow, carrying a scorching blaze, struck the wolf’s head in an instant.
Boom!
This strike concentrated ninety percent of Wang Chen’s power, and since it was unleashed in such a narrow space, the might of the Mastery Level Fire Crow Technique was fully displayed.
The lengthy tunnel suddenly shook violently, and the Wolf Beast’s head was directly blasted away by a large margin.
Ferocious flames mercilessly burned its body.
Some of the fire even rolled back.
But it was promptly blocked by the Spirit Light Shield Armor, which a prepared Wang Chen had activated in time.
Reality wasn’t a game; the spells cast by cultivators could mistakenly harm teammates, and even themselves!
[Human Virtue +15]
The information that popped up in his sight let Wang Chen know that he had successfully killed the evil beast.
The flames at the entrance were still burning, and the Wolf Beast’s carcass turned to ashes in an instant.
Only when the flames had completely died out did Wang Chen dispel the Spirit Light Shield Armor.
He had just let out a sigh of relief.
Then his field of vision suddenly darkened.
Another furry wolf beast’s head poked into the burrow entrance!
As it desperately squeezed in, it bared its teeth and snarled at Wang Chen.
An imposing look of wanting to devour Wang Chen alive and skin him whole!
Fuck!
At that moment, Wang Chen had a million “fucks” with nowhere to vent them.
This evil beast, it doesn’t look too bright!
Yet this evil beast wasn’t stuck by its belly, so it completely squeezed into the burrow.
And it was moving toward Wang Chen’s position.
Due to its limbs being utterly incapable of extending.
It crawled and kicked forward, looking exactly like a giant hairy caterpillar stuck in a bamboo tube.
But before it could get close to Wang Chen, it was met by a Fire Crow condensed with formidable power that smacked right into its face!
Boom!
The burrow shook once again.
[Human Virtue +15]
Although the Fire Crow Technique was a long-range attack spell, the closer the target, the stronger its lethality.
The second evil beast that had just squeezed in, despite being unharmed,
still could not withstand the close-range bombardment of a Mastery Level Fire Crow Technique.
And it contributed another 15 points to Wang Chen’s Human Virtue!
Its death was incredibly suffocating.
And when its carcass turned to ash,
Wang Chen astonishingly found a gleaming pearl half-buried in the pile of ashes.
A Yin Qi Pearl?
Wow, fuck me!
If not for being in a narrow burrow,
Wang Chen would have definitely jumped three feet high.
This evil beast gave up its wolf head, contributed Human Virtue, and even included a valuable Yin Qi Pearl as a bonus!
He hastily climbed a few steps upwards and pulled the pearl out from the ashes.
It was indeed a Yin Qi Pearl.
Though it had been scorched by flames, the pearl was still intact.
Cool to the touch.
In the past, Wang Chen had killed a scarecrow possessed by an Evil Wraith and obtained a Yin Qi Pearl.
Later, through the Four Seas Commerce Association, he sold it for six hundred eighty Low Spirits!
That sum of Spirit Stones greatly alleviated Wang Chen’s financial strain,
enabling him to comfortably bunker down at home and diligently practice his cultivation.
Now, to come across another one.
Isn’t this drop rate a bit too high?
Wang Chen remembered reading in the Treatise on Evil Wraith that only a minority of Evil Wraiths carried Yin Qi Pearls internally.
As the saying goes, rarity brings value.
If Yin Qi Pearls were easy to find, they surely wouldn’t fetch such a high price!
Fortune often rests upon disaster.
Wang Chen felt his luck tonight was extraordinary.
In his heart, an audacious idea immediately sprang up.
Such evil beasts clearly lacked intelligence, possessing brutish strength but not a cunning mind.
If there were more of the same creatures outside…
Licking his lips, Wang Chen summoned the Immortal Cultivation panel.
Points allocation!
Points allocation!
He added one point each to his Physique and Divine Soul.
[Physique: 7]
[Divine Soul: 3+9]
Since it was the first time he added points to these two attributes,
he only spent 2 Heavenly Merit points.
And the reason he chose to increase Physique and Divine Soul attributes right now,
aside from the Heavenly Merit being newly obtained, was mainly to farm Human Virtue with an even stronger and better state.
Exploiting the situation to farm!
When it’s time to lay low, lay low; when courage is needed, be brave!
If one only cowers and dares not take any risks,
they’ll become a true dog.
A no-guts, loser dog.
Now, an excellent opportunity to enhance himself was right in front of him.
If Wang Chen were to remain hesitant and overly cautious,
not seizing this chance,
he would truly despise himself!
Here’s the first update.
