"Look, I told you it was a very sinister... good plan!" Li Xiaoling applauded.

The fat man was silent. According to what Qiao Yuan said, it seemed to make some sense.

"Really?"

"Actually, I have a medicine that can simulate a state of serious injury!" said the fat man.

"If it's not true, what's the point of calling it a self-torture trick?" Qiao Yuan said.

After eating and drinking, we started to pay the bill.

"This meal is on me!"

"On my terms!"

"No...it's my treat!"

“…”

The front desk clerk was in tears.

"Hello, your total consumption is 299. Welcome to come again next time..."

…

Night falls.

Phew~

The fat man was spitting blood, his face was as pale as paper, his steps were staggering, his body was covered with knife wounds, and he was retreating in fear.

"I will definitely come back!"

In front, Qiao Yuan looked at the fat man with indifference.

"Get out, or I'll kill you!"

The big knife wrapped in blood mist gave off a heart-pounding feeling.

After watching the fat man disappear into the darkness, Qiao Yuan retracted his knife.

Last time I thought this fat guy had no real strength other than just yelling, but now it seems I was wrong.

After some understanding, Qiao Yuan got some information.

Apart from the strange black circle ability, the hallmark of a fourth-level awakener is the spiritualization of the body.

It's not about becoming a spirit, but about possessing the characteristics of a spirit.

For example... the arms and legs that have been removed can be reattached, so there is no need to worry about disability or death from excessive blood loss. Except for fatal injuries to the heart and head, it is almost impossible to be killed.

But it is still very different from Gawain's regeneration of severed limbs.

…

Because he was not an awakened person, the fat man's [weakening] ability, although terrifying, was completely ineffective against him, and Qiao Yuan easily beat him seriously.

The next step is to wait for the alien spirit to take the bait!

He handed the spiritual liquid given by the fat man to Li Xiaoling, looked at the time, it was almost time, and then started to head towards the ambush site.

Although it was just acting, he was seriously injured after all. It would be bad if the fat man was really killed by the alien spirit.

However, when Qiao Yuan arrived at the scene, he found that he was wrong.

After all, he was the rookie king and did have some skills. I really beat him and seriously injured him, but at this time the fat man was alive and kicking again.

In front of him stood a strange spirit.

A third-level alien spirit with some strength.

…

In an alley.

The alien spirit trapped by three black circles wanted to escape from this place, but its strength was suppressed to the extreme at this time and it was no match for the fat man.

With its weakened capabilities, its strength is suppressed to the extreme.

Can't escape, can't beat...

Seeing the strange spirit with nowhere to escape, the fat man finally felt relieved.

It’s not that I’m too weak, but Qiao Yuan’s ability is special and can make him immune to me.

It made him think that his ability had lost its effect.

"Tell me, who is behind you!" the fat man roared.

The strange spirit trapped in the black trap didn't say anything, but was looking at him with bared teeth.

At this moment, a scarlet blade light wrapped in a strong wind flashed, and the alien spirit's thigh was instantly cut off.

"Qiao Yuan, what are you doing? I haven't asked yet..."

"You can't get the answer by asking like that!"

Qiao Yuan came in front of the target spirit.

"Who's behind you?"

The target alien spirit looked ferocious and still didn't speak.

…

"It seems like it's being stubborn, so don't ask any more questions. I'll just kill it!"

Qiao Yuan picked up the knife and pointed the tip at the alien spirit's head.

"You'd better stand still. I have obsessive-compulsive disorder and I have to chop in the right direction!"

Surrounded by a blood mist, the tip of the knife suddenly tilted, instantly cutting off half of the scalp.

The strange spirit made a sound of pain.

"My hand slipped, try again!"

As he spoke, Qiao Yuan started to focus on the center point again.

"Fatty, let's make a bet. I'm going to bet on whether this cut of mine will split it equally. The bet is a bottle of spiritual fluid."

?????

The fat man beside him stood there in a daze, his brows twitching wildly.

Is this what humans should say?

This guy is so mentally perverted!

Damn, it’s a good thing I didn’t attack him at the beginning, otherwise it would have been divided equally.

Faced with Qiao Yuan’s abnormal behavior, it was scared!

"I'll admit it, I'll admit it all..."

"It's my master. He asked me to put the blame on you. He is..."

Suddenly... the terrified alien spirit began to tremble all over, a rotten smell filled the air, and then its body began to melt, and finally turned into a pool of meat paste.

…

The fat man hurried forward and finally shook his head, covering his nose.

"It's hopeless!"

"It should be an awakened person with special abilities who controls this strange spirit. Qiao Yuan... have you offended anyone?" asked the fat man.

"I think I know who it is!" Qiao Yuan's eyes flashed.

Apart from the paper man Yang Tao, there is no one else who can be called an enemy.

"Who is it?" asked the fat man.

No matter who the mastermind's target is, he did kill people from the Hunter Alliance, so this account must be settled.

"Yang Tao!" Qiao Yuan said.

Then the fat man picked up his phone and searched, exclaiming: "Paper Man Yang Tao!"

…

"You know him?"

"According to the intelligence our alliance has obtained, the last time he appeared was in Wu City, and it seems that he was related to a battle for a secret realm!" said the fat man as he looked at the information.

"Secret realm?"

"Well, after reaching the fourth level, every breakthrough before the seventh level requires spiritual fluid. In the secret realm, even if awakened people and even alien spirits don't use spiritual fluid, their cultivation speed will be very fast."
