A frown naturally came to me upon hearing NPC’s latest suggestion. I was sure he had thought hard about it, trying to come up with a solution that I could accept, but he should’ve known I had quite a few acquaintances within the wasteland. In fact, having spent a decent amount of time there, I was quite knowledgeable about th...

Facing three opponents may have posed a challenge to them, but it was one they believed they could still handle. The two could tell the intruders were inexperienced, and they knew how to exploit that to their advantage. They had them figuratively against the wall, so th...
2025-01-31 23:30:01 +0000 UTC View PostLi Lang rushed down the dark passageway, heading exactly where his Tracing Origin Art directed him. The depth of the tunnel made him anxious, as the possibility of this being the wrong path was not zero. There could have been other routes that snaked around to where he needed to go, while the one he was on led to a dead end.
If t...
2025-01-30 23:30:01 +0000 UTC View PostLi Lang and Long Yi both snapped around upon hearing someone calling out to them. They were both caught off guard by the sudden newcomer, but they didn’t panic. They had accounted for such situations.
Cultivators had many tricks up their sleeves. It wasn’t unusual that they possessed some technique that could avoid detection,...
2025-01-29 23:30:01 +0000 UTC View PostUnder the cover of my smokescreen, we sowed chaos among our enemies while we moved to reposition ourselves away from the bridge. Despite how well-equipped our enemies were, wasn’t an insurmountable hurdle to lose them.
They were busy dealing with the silverish smoke that constantly tried to seep into any cracks it could find. I...
2025-01-29 20:26:32 +0000 UTC View PostThe world around the mountain range constantly flickered between total darkness and bright flashing lights. It was accentuated by the occasional sound of metal clashing. Li Lang and Long Yi couldn’t afford to look back at the scene of battle as they rushed away.
They had received the signal to retreat. While every fiber of thei...

“But—”
Wei Ping caught himself before continuin...
2025-01-27 23:30:01 +0000 UTC View PostI took the time to think things over before I accepted the supposed leader of the enemy force’s invitation for a chat. It gave me time to inspect the equipment of the people before me. They had managed to box us in quickly and could not be underestimated.
Their slim design hid much of the details of their equipment. I wasn’t ...

I banked my points as we continued to ambush enemy fleets with the deep strike force. I could make the decision at a later date. For now, I had to focus on surviving while earning more experience ...
2025-01-25 13:46:04 +0000 UTC View PostWei Ping didn’t lose himself in his memories for long. He was short on time. He had to act soon or else his captor, Yuan Kai, could return at any moment.
Even if his friends were currently fighting outside, Wei Ping doubted they would be able to fight their way through in time before he had his life force stolen from him....
2025-01-24 23:30:01 +0000 UTC View PostJust as Wei Ping was praying for his allies to hurry to his rescue, he quickly shook those thoughts out of his mind.
When did I grow so weak? Leaving my fate to others?
Wei Ping had grown up alone from an early age. He was once proud of his independence and resourcefulness, but he had at some point become rel...

“Enough with that already!” Long Yi bellowed. “It’s not helping. Save your energy for when we arrive.”
Seeing the two...
2025-01-21 23:30:02 +0000 UTC View PostLi Lang quickly huddled with Long Yi in the center of the Skyrunner. They knew tough enemies had appeared, and the best thing they could do was stay out of their allies’ way.

2025-01-16 01:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostEntering Witherfall City was easy. Eroding March Pavilion was only a small faction on the grand scale of things prior to the incident in the pocket realm. That naturally meant the cities in their area were on a smaller scale as well.
These small settlements treated cultivators like kings, especially those who were true cultivator...
2025-01-15 23:34:40 +0000 UTC View PostThe fight continued even with Long Yi sustaining injuries. To cultivators, such wounds that only damaged the skin were barely considered injuries at all. Those who practiced special techniques would be able to recover from them within a minute, while those who didn’t could simply consume a Recovery Pill.
Long Yi did neither. He...
