Demon-Wraith Plagued World: From Commoner to Supreme

In the end, Xu San decided to wait for a month. Now that he had laid his cards on the table with Wu Hua, his safety was assured; Wu Hua wouldn’t let anyone harm him. After all, waiting another month was something he could afford. If it weren’t for Xu Xiong’s safety, he would have risked it all.

…

That evening, Lin Feng returned home and handed over five Tiger Essence Pills to Lin Yu. Initially, Lin Feng wanted Lin Yu to leave the Gang, believing that with his current status, the Great Knife Gang wouldn’t trouble Lin Yu. However, Lin Yu felt he needed more experience and couldn’t always rely on Lin Feng’s protection. Moreover, with Lin Feng’s help, once he reached perfected Body Forging, he could take the assessment for the reserve camp of the Demon Exorcism Division.

The reserve camp of the Demon Exorcism Division didn’t mind if you came from humble beginnings; as long as you hadn’t committed a major crime, you could get in with the right connections. Once Lin Feng became a squad leader, recommending someone for the assessment would be straightforward.

Seeing Lin Yu’s determination, Lin Feng didn’t insist further but advised him to be cautious. Then, Lin Feng returned to his room and swallowed two Bone Refining Pills. This time, the two pills provided him with 40 Upgrade Points. He also drank a jug of Great Drunken Immortal Brew, which added 5 Upgrade Points. After finishing another jug, he couldn’t drink anymore.

Adding to the previous points, Lin Feng accumulated 90 Upgrade Points.

“Now, the ordinary meals at the Demon Exorcism Division, without medicinal dishes, only add one point a day! With medicinal dishes, it can add three points a day. Once I reach the Tendon Changing Realm, the effect will be negligible! To advance quickly, I’ll need to earn more merits, slay some Demons, and exchange for Elixirs in the Treasury.”

Lin Feng sighed, realizing that the higher the cultivation, the harder it was to progress! Then, he allocated fifty points to his cultivation and twenty-five points to the Concealing Technique.

Perfected Bone Forging!

With a “buzz,” Lin Feng felt as if his bones had been reshaped once again! His fingers tapped against them, producing a resonant humming sound.

As the Vajra Art circulated, the bones within Lin Feng’s body emitted a faint golden glow, brighter than before. His strength doubled once more, and the force of his punch could likely exceed ten thousand jin! He felt that with his fists alone, he could now crush that Second Realm Minor Demon he once faced.

With the Concealing Technique reaching Minor Mastery, Lin Feng’s heart finally found peace. He sensed that Commander Ding could still detect his cultivation today, but the commander hid it well, showing no signs of it. Now that the Concealing Technique was at Minor Mastery, it should be able to evade the commander’s scrutiny. However, it would be safest to elevate the technique to Major Mastery, or even Perfected.

The real headache was that his cultivation was rapidly approaching Peak Bone Forging Realm, but without a cultivation manual, his progress would stall. Obtaining a manual for the Tendon Changing Realm was a challenge. In theory, once one reached Perfected Bone Forging Realm, the Demon Exorcism Division would provide the Tendon Changing manual for free. Yet Lin Feng found himself in a bind. How could he explain advancing from Body Forging Realm to Peak Bone Forging Realm in just a few days?

“I’ll have to wait a while before revealing my cultivation to receive the manual. I wonder if Commander Ding has one; if so, it would be ideal to request a copy,” Lin Feng muttered to himself.

As night deepened, Lin Feng donned a set of night attire and crafted a human skin mask. Once fully equipped, he employed his techniques to silently leave his home. With Xu Qiang dead, Lin Feng aimed to prevent any further trouble from the Xu family by taking the initiative.

Lin Feng moved like a ghost through the darkness, soon arriving at the Xu residence. The Xu family home was still brightly lit. Lin Feng fully utilized his Concealing Technique, intending to climb onto the roof to assess the situation. Unexpectedly, two figures were already there, dressed in night attire like him.

Lin Feng: …

It seemed he wasn’t the only one after the Xu family’s lives. Observing more closely, Lin Feng noticed several others hidden around the Xu residence. “No wonder the Xu family is still brightly lit at this hour! Xu San must have anticipated revenge for Xu Qiang’s death and prepared defenses. The Xu family must be heavily guarded now; even a fly entering would cause a commotion!” Lin Feng analyzed.

Suddenly, a figure clad in a red constable’s uniform appeared, slashing at the two black-clad figures on the roof. One was unable to dodge and was cut in half, while the other threw several darts at the constable. “Clang! Clang! Clang!” Sparks flew as the constable skillfully deflected all the projectiles with his blade. When he attempted to pursue, the black-clad figure used advanced agility techniques to vanish from the constable’s sight.

At this point, a guard from the Xu family climbed onto the roof to thank the constable. “A constable with Tendon Changing Realm cultivation!” The hidden black-clad figures, witnessing this, chose to retreat. Lin Feng also quietly withdrew.

“With my current strength, defeating someone at the early stage of Tendon Changing Realm shouldn’t be an issue. But killing the Xu family father and son under their watchful eyes would be difficult! I’ll have to find another opportunity. That constable can’t stay at the Xu family forever!”

Inside the Xu residence, Zhu Cui’er was feeding Xu Xiong medicine. Lately, she sensed the Xu family was in decline. Xu Qiang was dead, and now, late at night, there were so many dangerous people lurking around the Xu family. If not for Constable Shen, who knows what might have happened?

She regretted abandoning Lin Feng. Watching Xu Xiong bound like a mummy, she resolved to seek Lin Feng out tomorrow, humble herself, and say some kind words. Surely, he would forgive her, even though Xu Xiong had taken her body.
