*Raaargh!*

A roar of the beast sounded as it charged with its full might. Avoiding to the side, Luke sent his kick right at the beast's neck. His kick that has been strengthened by a magic spell immediately broke the beast's neck and blew away its bull sized body to the trees nearby.

Crashing into the tree and possibly almost breaking the tree's trunk, the demonic beast let out its last breath while it stared at Luke with a resentment gaze.

"Fiuw... " Trying to stabilize his breathing, Luke wiped off the sweat in his forehead while he observed the power behind that kick.

"Incredible." Commented Luke while he still tried to familiarize himself with the technique he had learned. Taking off his clothes, which were drenched in sweat, Luke walked into the demonic beast in the shape of a giant rat while he occasionally glanced at the paints in his hardened, six packs upper body.

Lines of paint could be seen all around his upper body, starting from his neck, down to his abdomen, and eve

    Running for a while inside the forest, Luke assessed his surroundings carefully to search for any demonic beasts. Fifteen minutes later, Luke encountered a boulder in the middle of the forest while there were corpses of many animals right beside the boulder. Approaching the place, Luke held his chin in contemplation as he recalled a demonic beast with a similar habit he saw right now. Shortly, a shadow of a being moved by itself inside of the tree's shadows. As it got closer to Luke, a pair of eyes glowed in an amber color as it made a smile on its face. On the next moment, the being leaped out from the shadows while it opened its jaw and readied its claws. Jumping to the side as if Luke had expected the sudden ambush, Luke could see the being's form was a panther that was sneaking behind his back and trying to attack him. Spinning his body after his feet had landed on the ground, Luke sent a roundhouse kick towards the panther's head. Growling in displeasure after it had found its

    Somewhere, five days later in a forest filled with blackened mist. Any ordinary human without strong Lingqi would have their body poisoned and their mind befuddled with hallucinations. This place was located right under the mountain called the Snake's Fang. The first layer of entrance to the Three Headed Crimson Serpent sect. Traversing this forest alone was a young man wearing traveler 's clothes and a hay backpack on his back. The young man calmly walked in the forest while his gaze wandered around the area. His gesture sensed to be vigilant, with his eyes observing if there was any disturbance around him. After he had walked for twenty minutes, he finally had reached the foot of the mountain. Covering his body behind a nearby tree to hide, he took a look at the settlement that had resided in this ominous region as if it was nothing. It was a village, but the village was unusually bigger than the usual village with a tower made of stone that could reach thirty floors high and was e

    "Next!" Shouting the same phrase loudly for the past ten hours, the guard had a bored expression on his face while he and his colleagues recorded the influx of newcomers to Xiutia'a village. At times, the guards would have been surprised by the guests that came as there were some famous figures in ranks of the wandering cultivators. However, most of the time, it usually was those kids that were still in the beginning phase to the cultivation journey that had been sent by their respective schools, or unknown, wandering cultivators that tried to leech unto some big sect's resources to raise their cultivation. "Next!" Finally, the guards would inspect the last person on the row and their shift would come to an end for today. Soon their gaze landed into a young man that wore shabby clothes that have holes in some parts, along without any single weapon on his body and if one sniffed carefully, they would smell a faint, unique scent coming out of the young man's body.

Noticing that Luke had finally showed up, she giggled and said, "Hey, sleepy head. Come down, we are waiting for you."

    Two days later. Luke stood one the deck area of a gigantic ship. Looking at the floor below him, Luke was trying to imagine how much it would cost if this ship was made of real jade material. "It is made of jade." Surprised at the unexpected familiar voice beside him, Luke faced the smiling Han Tue who had approached him from his back. Pointing his index finger to the ship, Han Tue continued, "Not only is it made of jade, but this one is a real flying artifact. It cost a huge fortune to buy it, let alone for a customized version." "How do you know what I think? Do you have the technique to read someone's mind?" Luke asked Han Tue who was chuckling after he had heard Luke's words. "Your expression says it all, you know. I don't need to be a fortune teller to read you." Answered Han Tue nonchalantly.

    Two days later, somewhere within the territory of the Empire, a man in a casual T-shirt and jeans was walking through the sidewalk as his eyes darted around. His figure was perfectly blended into the crowd, as a strange invisible force enveloping him made it harder to be spotted and sought of amidst the busy streets. It made him no different than a ghost. Even the lenses of the camera near the traffic signs couldn't locate his face and figure. At the same time, no one around him seemed to be aware of his presence. Yet, their body subconsciously moved to the side to give a way for him. The red sporty hat that covered his hair and the surgeon mask he put on gave him the appearance of a shady person. However, the man didn't think that his disguise would attract much attention if the force around him disappeared. All he t

Its head was shaped like a spike, but it had no hairs. Excluding the lack of nose and mouth, the creature possessed a pair of long humanoid ears.'Someone is entering the Hoarding Room?'Tilting his head to the side, the creature was sure no abominations would dare to carelessly enter that place.

In addition to the twisting ways that are no different than a giant maze to him, Luke wouldn't be that confident anymore if not because of the system that helps him."[One kilometers ahead, turn to the right side. There would be 67% chance it would lead to the center area of the headquarters.]"To further aid him, Luke used his recreation school magic to create small androids that act as the eyes for the system.
