Becoming a saint begins with the infinite accumulation of destiny.

When Chen Shisheng first came to the wilderness, most of his experience was still based on a TV variety show from his previous life.

However, he did not intend to do what Murong He said, simply wander around the area, pretend to be injured, and then return to Wuhe City.

Instead, they planned to familiarize themselves with the surrounding terrain and select a suitable shelter for long-term use.

After all, his purpose in coming to the wilderness was not solely due to the Wen family's mission.

More importantly, they obtain destiny signs that can enhance their own strength from various monsters, evil spirits, or bandits.

This is his primary objective; without a new destiny pattern to integrate with his existing destiny, his bone-forging efficiency is too slow. Naturally, he needs to find a way to speed it up.

Of course, he had another consideration.

If Wuhe City were to fall and the bandit army were to enter the city, he could also take his sister-in-law and run out of the city.

There will be a supply point in the wilderness. He'll be fine, but his sister-in-law is just an ordinary person, so she'll have to make a living there too.

soon.

The three of them wandered through the forest and arrived at the mountainside.

While clearing away weeds from the road with machetes to avoid being attacked by poisonous plants and snakes, the group carefully observed their surroundings, paying attention to any possible movements.

Neither of the two people behind him noticed that as Chen Shisheng walked, his hand kept moving, scattering something around him.

Meanwhile, in the distant woods, several bandits quietly split off a few men and cautiously surrounded the area from both sides.

They moved very quietly, clearly very familiar with their surroundings, without even disturbing the birds.

Like hunters, the men had cruel eyes and held sharp blades, trying not to make a sound as they crawled forward, burying themselves in the surrounding weeds.

With the occasional rustling of grass and chirping of birds in the woods, Chen Shisheng and his companions didn't notice anyone approaching.

They walked slowly up the mountain in a triangular formation, at a moderate pace.

Chen Shisheng was also carrying a small booklet, taking notes on certain terrain features and precautions as he walked.

After all, these are very important experiences that may come in handy in the future.

Then, he took something out of his bag again and threw it out.

Xu Song and the other man behind him looked exhausted and couldn't understand why Chen Shisheng was pacing around like this.

However, since there was no danger, neither of them cared.

Since they returned empty-handed, the majority of the deductions from their benefits would fall on Chen Shisheng's shoulders.

They would only get a few words of scolding from Lin Bao and have 10 or 20% of their exotic beast meat deducted.

This is why Murong He was in such a hurry to seek out a fight with the bandits.

No power would choose to support martial artists for nothing. The Wen family conducts assessments for every action, based on the number of enemies killed. Rewards and punishments are established according to established rules.

Desertion in the face of battle is a serious crime and carries the harshest penalties.

Correspondingly, warriors who achieved victories would be greatly rewarded.

Meanwhile, several bandits, dressed in green camouflage, were slowly approaching the group.

They formed an encirclement, a total of five people, led by the burly man from before. Seeing the five separate, he immediately decided to make his move.

Previously, he would have had some concerns, since the number of people on both sides was not much different, but now Chen Shisheng and his two companions were acting alone.

Murong He and his companion were trapped in the pool, making this the perfect opportunity to strike.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to make a move once the armored troops get close.

He gave a look, signaling to the group that he would make his move once they got closer.

First, take out the blood exchangers behind them, and then the five of them surround and kill Chen Shisheng, the strongest among them.

In previous raids, the brothers worked together seamlessly, and once even managed to cripple a Bone Forging expert.

This gave the burly man a huge boost of confidence, and he used this tactic many times to achieve great success with the leader, making quite a name for himself.

If we coordinate well and don't make a sound, this time we can also... Ah!!

A piercing scream suddenly erupted from the side.

One of the bandits covered his hand and jumped up, startling a large flock of birds into flight, the sound echoing through the mountains and forests.

"Damn it, we've been exposed!"

The burly man cursed angrily. Just as the group was about to be completely surrounded, they were alerted by the bandit and were instantly discovered.

Chen Shisheng and the other two immediately noticed the movement on their left and behind them.

He immediately turned around and saw a man covered in various weeds and wearing a green straw hat, pulling a rusty iron nail from his hand.

The iron nail pierced through the man's palm, leaving it bloody and covered in rust.

"superior!!"

The burly man dropped the pretense and immediately ordered his men to attack.

He took the lead, sprinting forward and charging towards Chen Shisheng.

"Don't walk through the weeds."

Chen Shisheng immediately led the way, his figure flashing like lightning, and whispered a reminder to the two bewildered people.

Xu Song and the female warrior seemed to wake from a dream, and drew their swords to slash at the wounded bandit.

The bandit was about to back away

Available in the next second.

He stomped hard on a nail.

The lower half of the nail head was deeply embedded in the mud, while the upper half pierced through the sole of the shoe and into the foot.

His movements froze, and his body went out of control.

Xu Song brought his sword down, and the man didn't even have time to react before it struck his neck.

His head lolled to the side, and he fell heavily to the ground, lifeless.

Upon seeing this, the other bandits exchanged glances, their anger flaring, and charged forward with their knives drawn.

They were already very close to each other, and they had been lying in ambush beforehand, making thorough preparations.

At this point, the action begins with each party identifying their target and making their own move.

His moves were fierce and ruthless, aimed straight for vital points!

Swish!

Chen Shisheng slightly turned his body to dodge the burly man's blood-red blade.

The knife slashed down hard, but got stuck in the tree root.

The burly man missed his first strike, so he gave up on drawing his knife and instead used the "Black Tiger Claws at the Heart" move, turning his hand into a claw and grabbing at Chen Shisheng's lower body.

The sharp claws shot out with incredible speed!

Chen Shisheng's expression changed, and he instinctively brought down his knife, gripping it with a reverse grip and slashing diagonally towards the burly man's neck.

Both sides made their moves almost simultaneously.

boom!

The burly man ultimately didn't dare use his neck, but instead relied on the knife.

He slapped the side of the knife with his hand!

Chen Shisheng immediately sensed something was wrong, and a tremendous force suddenly came from the hilt of his knife.

The shock made his hand go numb, and the knife immediately slipped from his grasp.

"Good lad, you're not afraid of Black Tiger Stealing Chickens!"

The burly man sneered, clenching his fist and swinging it out with a powerful, surging aura.

This person's movements, speed, and reaction are no less than Chen Shisheng's, and his practical combat experience is also just as good.

He is clearly a martial artist at the Bone Forging level!

Chen Shisheng remained calm and did not respond.

Having experienced numerous battles, he was already familiar with the tactics.

This person clearly intended to distract him with words before launching a sneak attack.

He raised his hand to block the man's attack, then threw a punch straight at the man's face.

The burly man was slightly startled, not expecting Chen Shisheng to be different from the previous martial artists, and almost fell victim to his attack.

"Which martial arts school do you belong to?"

The burly man feigned shock, speaking as he quickly retreated.

But his hand quietly reached behind him, and a handful of lime appeared in his hand.

Pfft!

But the next moment.

The burly man took another step back, and a piercing pain shot through his feet. His face flushed instantly, and he flung the lime from his hand.

But Chen Shisheng had already seen his movement and subtly dodged backward to avoid the lime.

"You fucking bastard!! You ambushed me with nails...!!!"

The burly man, injured in the foot, instantly flew into a rage.

"Aren't you the same?"

Chen Shisheng sneered. This man was no good either. He pretended not to have seen what he was doing.

Ever since he encountered the man with the iron dart on his way back to Wuhe City, Chen Shisheng has been paying close attention to the enemy's hand movements.

From then on, he also bought a batch of iron nails, intending to scatter them around to prevent attacks from poisonous snakes and insects, as a warning device.

I never expected it would actually come in handy now.
