Chapter 30 Chu Nuan City

Everyone felt relieved knowing that Fang Yue wouldn't leave.

And Fang Yue, as he said, began to expand the scope of his vigilance.

Mainly because along the way, traveling on the official road, the Daya Merchant Troupe encountered few eerie events, and those they did encounter were relatively low-level.

If Fang Yue wanted to earn more yang energy to cultivate his mental techniques and martial skills, he had no choice but to expand his scope, deviating some distance from the official road.

With the mobility support of the Scarlet Flame Horse, Fang Yue finally began to harvest some of the isolated eerie creatures in the surrounding area, initiating a battle with a different style.

"Bold eerie creature! I want you to help me cultivate!"

"Eerie creature, where do you think you're going! This is the good fortune I bestow upon you!"

"I want to see if your head is harder, or my blade!"

The people of the merchant caravan would avoid the eerie creatures at all costs.

But occasionally, they would see Fang Yue from a distance chasing after the eerie creatures, hacking at them.

And every time Fang Yue saw an eerie creature, he would shout with surprise and joy, rushing into a frenzy of slaughter.

Those eerie creatures, which they considered extremely terrifying, couldn't withstand a few moves under Fang Yue's hands, being killed as easily as chopping melons and vegetables.

"Wife, come out and see the immortal…"

At first, seeing Fang Yue chasing and killing eerie creatures terrified everyone.

Now, they were numb and calm, accustomed to it. They had gradually grown used to Fang Yue using their merchant caravan as a base, running around everywhere killing eerie creatures.

Night Lord, our Superman…

Every morning when they woke up, they could hear Night Lord's excited voice.

"See you all later, I'll go check if any eerie creatures nearby have suffered from heatstroke… Ah ha! How lucky, today's jackpot is you! Oh ho! Oh ho! Very plump, very satisfying."

"This eerie creature doesn't need chasing, this eerie creature has a temper, this eerie creature is dead for sure!"

Even without going to look, everyone knew what the eerie creature's ultimate fate would be.

In any case, along the way, with Captain Night's vigilance, they felt for the first time that walking in the wilderness was so reassuring, so safe.

And Fang Yue's gains were also considerable.

He harvested yang energy like a combine harvester, along with attribute points, and converted these into cultivation of mental techniques and martial arts.

The only regret was that he hadn't encountered [Night Thief] again, and hadn't been able to scavenge any [Eerie Realm] progress bars.

In this mutually beneficial situation, Fang Yue's strength steadily increased.

And today, their merchant caravan finally arrived at [Chu Nuan City].

Fang Yue scanned his achievements along the way.

"System notification: Congratulations to player [Night Dusk] for successful cultivation. [Coiling Tree Mental Technique] has been upgraded to the second level, inner force increased by 1000 points, force neutralization value increased by 400 points."

"System notification: Congratulations to player [Night Dusk] for successful cultivation. [Shadow Stepping Footwork] has been upgraded to the second level, force control value increased by 200 points, force neutralization value increased by 200 points."

"System notification: Congratulations to player [Night Dusk] for successful cultivation. [Night Flow Mental Technique] has been upgraded to the second level, inner force increased by 3000 points, force control value increased by 800 points."

His Innate Realm martial skills and mental techniques had been comprehensively upgraded.

The price he paid was also quite tragic; Fang Yue had converted almost all of the yang energy he had gained along the way into cultivation.

"Name: Coiling Tree Mental Technique."

"Level: Second Level/Total Three Levels."

"Effect: Increases force neutralization value by 500 points, slightly increases the speed of blood and Qi recovery."

Then there was…

"Name: Night Flow Mental Technique."

"Level: Second Level/Total Three Levels."

"Effect: No attribute amplification during the day. At night, increases force control value by 1000 points. Avoiding light such as moonlight, and attacking in absolute darkness, additionally increases force control value by 500 points."

This thing actually consumed the most yang energy to cultivate, but because it was the most efficient, it was the one that satisfied Fang Yue the most.

And there was also the Shadow Stepping Footwork, which he had been diligently cultivating…

"Name: Shadow Stepping Footwork."

"Level: Second Level/Total Three Levels."

"Description: Step on shadows to ascend to the heavens!"

"Effect: Stepping on the shadow of anything increases movement speed."

Overall strength increased!

Fang Yue was very satisfied with this.

Yang energy could be earned again once it was gone, especially now that he could absorb yang energy by killing people with the [Eerie Spirit Root].

Faced with the enormous evil of Chu Nuan City, a righteous person like me cannot sit idly by!

Ah, sunrise, that [Chu Nuan City] is worth fighting for!

"Name: Night Dusk."

"Inner Force Value: 10000/10000."

"Eerie Value: 10000/10000."

"Force Control: 8400 [Base: 8420] [Status/Bonus: -20]."

"Force Neutralization: 6890 [Base: 6910] [Status/Bonus: -20]."

"Yang Energy: 1 year, 3 months."

Scanning his attribute list, Fang Yue confidently followed the team towards Chu Nuan City.

The only somewhat troubling thing these days was that incident that happened in reality.

He hadn't expected that Miao Fa, who was Chen Xiaomiao, had done that kind of thing.

Hopefully the [Joint Association] could suppress the matter…

Thinking of that incident in reality, Fang Yue inexplicably felt some urgency and pressure, as if some high-voltage line was pushing him forward, and he couldn't stop.

Since Chen Xiaomiao's incident, things had started to develop like a runaway wild horse, and no one knew what the future held.

And Sister Yuan as well… hopefully, she can recover…

Thinking about the things he had dealt with in reality while he was developing and rushing on his way in the game, Fang Yue couldn't help but sigh.

He was taking off in the game, but a mess in reality…

…

Green Silk County.

Many days had passed since Fang Yue, like a terrestrial deity, had extracted the eerie creatures from the vast sea of Green Silk County.

The entire Green Silk County had suffered a great loss of vitality after the disaster.

Even though they had hidden in the refuge area, many villagers of Green Silk County had suffered eerie attacks and been soaked by the night rain, resulting in many casualties.

Of course, compared to the heavy casualties of the Green Division, the proportion of villagers who died was insignificant.

People erected tombstones for the fallen Tian Erjun and You Sisi, buried their bodies, and gave them a grand funeral.

And all the heavy responsibilities of Green Silk County currently rested on Captain Wu's shoulders.

After successively losing Green Robe and the sacrifice of a large number of White Robes, there were very few people available in the Green Division.

Although Captain Wu was an outsider, he was the most capable leader and the most trusted by everyone in terms of strength.

So no one mentioned any Green Division rules, no one said that Captain Wu was not a member of the Green Division, so they wouldn't obey orders or anything like that.

Everyone, under Captain Wu's arrangement, began to rebuild Green Silk County.

At the same time, more and more people came to inquire about what had happened in Green Silk County.

As the flow of people increased, Green Silk County was slowly recovering its vitality. Given time, it would surely regain its former glory.

The current low point was just a period of concealing its strength and biding its time.

But Captain Wu didn't want to continue staying in Green Silk County.

He wanted to rush to [Chu Nuan City].

Many days had passed since the day Fang Yue led away the eerie creatures.

He had also spent many days in Green Silk County.
