Becoming a saint begins with the infinite accumulation of destiny.

Name: Chen Shisheng

【Destiny: Luck of the Qilin (White) (Additional Effect: Abundant Kidney Water)】

[Destiny Signs: Thousand Needles Embroidered Bones (White), Hidden Shadow Poisonous Hand (Blue): Concealing traces, deadly poison. Shadow Poison Sting]

Looking at the horoscope that appeared on the panel, Chen Shisheng couldn't help but smile.

The acquisition of a new destiny signifies that he will be able to synthesize a new destiny.

"Let's go back and talk about it first!"

However, Chen Shisheng did not immediately choose to synthesize his destiny. After all, this place was on Yin Mountain, and the bandits of Guijianchou could appear at any time, which was really unsafe.

Quickly use a knife to cut off some of the venom glands and tailbone from the poison lizard's body.

The venom glands are the source of toxins in the venomous lizard's body; they are extremely poisonous, but can also be used in medicine.

As for the coccyx, it is said to have the effect of nourishing yin and strengthening yang.

Chen Shisheng wasn't interested in this, but taking it back to sell for money would provide him with extra income to buy the exotic beast meat.

It's a bit of a shame that the flesh of the poison lizard is inedible, something he had investigated beforehand.

In fact, most of the meat from wild monsters cannot be used directly, but he didn't know why.

Martial artists who only know to eat the flesh of demons will become mentally unstable and their blood and qi will be disordered. In severe cases, they may even go mad and fall into a state of frenzy.

After quickly tidying up, Chen Shisheng dragged the poisonous lizard and the corpses of the bandits away from the pool to avoid the smell of blood attracting new beasts.

Then he returned to the edge of the pool and quickly climbed up the side closest to the mountain.

There is a cave in the middle of the rock wall.

Chen Shisheng made an opening in the vines on one side, turned his body to the side, and crawled inside.

Inside was a dilapidated stone statue of a deity.

The statue was dilapidated, covered in cobwebs, and dusty.

Chen Shisheng looked at it and didn't find anything unusual; it was just an ordinary statue.

So he simply emptied the space inside. The space wasn't large, but after removing the statue, it was just enough to accommodate his entire body.

He then used a knife to carve out some space inside, put his water bag and some dry rations inside, and found some dry branches, dead leaves and weeds for camouflage.

After roughly noting down the location, Chen Shisheng circled the area a few more times to make sure no one was paying attention before leaving with peace of mind.

But not long after he left...

Not far away, a figure suddenly crawled out from under a small earthen mound.

Soil and fallen leaves swished off the man and landed on the ground.

The man was dressed in green camouflage, and his body was covered in an unknown green liquid, which concealed the fluctuations in his vital energy.

Struggling to emerge from the pit, the man gasped for breath, his eyes fixed on the direction Chen Shisheng had gone, a look of relief in them.

"Oh shit!"

He cursed under his breath and began to carefully scan his surroundings.

After confirming there was no danger, he slowly got up and ran in another direction.

He was with a group of burly men; all six of them were notorious mountain bandits who often acted together.

Using their superb camouflage skills, they outwitted and killed many experts.

I once encountered a Bone Forging Martial Artist from Five Rivers City. He was very strong, and I could rely on his hiding skills to wait for him to get close before suddenly emerging from the ground to ambush him.

The man was caught off guard and was slashed by his knife.

Then the crowd rushed forward and managed to kill the man.

Using this method of disguise and ambush, they lived a very comfortable life.

Who would have thought that this time they would encounter Chen Shisheng, who was also resorting to underhanded tactics.

Before the burly man could lead Chen Shisheng to his location, the burly man was the first to fall into the trap and accidentally stepped on a nail.

He hid in the soil until Chen Shisheng wandered around and left. He waited for a long time before daring to come out.

"I'm so suffocating!"

He let out a long breath, quickly concealed his surroundings, and glanced at the pool of water not far away.

He had been paying attention to Chen Shisheng's actions the whole time.

They also heard the sounds of battle coming from the direction of the pool, and naturally understood that the poisonous lizard had also fallen victim to that person's cruelty.

That's their perfect accomplice in setting a trap!

Now it's all gone.

"Damn it! I need to get back quickly. A real expert has arrived; I need to go back and warn them..."

But before he could finish speaking, his eyes suddenly caught sight of a figure in front of him.

I looked up.

Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat.

Cold sweat dripped down his forehead, and his face turned pale instantly.

The figure was none other than Chen Shisheng, who had returned!

"you...!!"

His voice trembled, and he was about to beg for mercy.

But the next moment,

A fist slammed into his face, making him see stars and feel dizzy.

Bang! Bang!

Chen Shisheng threw two more punches, aiming for vital points, and a series of fine cracking sounds immediately filled the dense forest.

The man screamed and fell backward, trying to draw his knife to strike, but it was too late.

Chen Shisheng punched him in the neck, sending him flying backward and crashing heavily into a tree trunk.

The shaking caused the withered yellow leaves to fall with a rustling sound.

The man's eyes widened, staring intently at what was in front of him, his gaze filled with disbelief.

Then it quickly lost its luster, its head lolled to the side, and it stopped breathing completely.

Chen Shisheng quickly stepped forward and searched the corpse, finding several money bags, a poison dart, several packets of poison powder, and a book on it.

His heart skipped a beat, and a glint of light flashed in his eyes as he guessed that this might be a martial arts manual.

Although he didn't know why this person would carry a secret manual with him, he didn't dwell on it at the moment.

Immediately, he used a twig to pry open the book, flipped through the pages, and took a closer look.

Inside the book cover were several large, bright red characters.

The Fairy's Cultivation (Illustrated Edition)

"..."

Chen Shisheng was speechless.

I never imagined that my unintentional act would lead to this.

The extent to which this little book spread far exceeded his expectations.

After flipping through a few more pages and confirming that it was indeed this little book,

Chen Shisheng finally gave up.

Having lost interest in continuing to look, he collected everything into the leather pouch at his waist and casually tossed the body away from the pool.

He then quickly left the scene, not caring whether there was anyone else there.

The Yinshan Mountains at night are terrifying, cold, and dangerous.

He hadn't gone far when Chen Shisheng could faintly hear the sounds of bones being chewed and wild beasts roaring and fighting behind him. The sounds were dense, indicating that there were quite a few of them.

He dared not delay any longer, and with a burst of speed, he hurried down the mountain.

In the wilderness at night, all sorts of ferocious beasts and evil spirits roam freely, making them far beyond the capabilities of ordinary people.

Many large monsters prefer to hunt and move around at night, not to mention evil spirits, which especially like strange creatures with heavy yin energy.

Therefore, even though Chen Shisheng brought a piece of dried meat, he dared not stay out overnight.

If you were to encounter one that is immune to flesh-piercing attacks, its strength would be absolutely terrifying.

Holding his spoils, Chen Shisheng quickly descended the mountain and followed the moonlight into the city.

Most of the armored troops stationed at the foot of the mountain gradually returned to nearby towns, instead of remaining in the wilderness to avoid being ambushed.

In the distance, scattered lights moved slowly along the official road.

Within the dark, dense forests on both sides, faint roars and cries of demonic creatures could be heard.

Upon returning to the city, Chen Shisheng first went to the Internal Affairs Hall and handed over the ears to the steward to verify their merits.

"It's all true. Sir, there are eight catties of exotic beast meat in total. Would you like to take it out now, or wait until the end of the month to distribute it all at once?"

The speaker was a servant in black, who was extremely respectful and polite.

"Take it all out."

Chen Shisheng thought for a moment, then took out a bag and gestured to the servant to put it in.

A bandit who undergoes a blood transfusion receives one pound of exotic beast meat, while one who undergoes bone forging receives five pounds.

Aside from Xu Song and the female warrior each taking one ear, Chen Shisheng had a total of eight catties of exotic beast meat.

He didn't use Murong He's ears and killed innocent people to claim credit.

Before setting off, all of them would place a mark on their ears as a way of distinguishing themselves.

When they return, the Wen family will distribute medicine to wash off the marks.

Therefore, no one dared to use their companion's ear to claim the prize.

When I got home, my sister-in-law wasn't home yet; she had gone out to buy groceries.

Chen Shisheng didn't tell her at all that he had gone to the Yinshan Mountains in the wilderness. She had no idea that her brother-in-law had not only killed several bandits and gone through a dangerous battle, but also single-handedly killed a poisonous lizard.

Back in his room, Chen Shisheng first arranged all the exotic beast meat and hung it in the drying room to prevent it from being gnawed by rats or getting moldy.

Then, he rinsed his body to wash away the bloodstains so as not to worry his sister-in-law.

After changing his clothes, Chen Shisheng returned to his room.

He sat calmly on his bed, but if you looked closely, you could see a hint of excitement in his eyes.

After so long, he finally...

We can synthesize a new destiny again!

After switching to the control panel, Chen Shisheng glanced at it briefly without hesitation.

His eyes flickered, and he dragged the two life forms together.

in an instant,

The panel suddenly refreshed as if it had been refreshed.

When he opened his eyes again, a new destiny had appeared on him.
