Surviving in a chaotic world and becoming a saint by adding points

Chapter 34 Blood Kiss

Back home, Chen Ran pocketed all the gold notes and silver he had received.

After confirming that no one was around, he opened the book he had taken from the man in black.

"That person is clearly practicing a body-strengthening technique. If that's true, then I've hit the jackpot."

Chen Ran had a very beautiful idea.

But reality taught him a harsh lesson.

"What is this 'Thirty-Six Secret Techniques of the Bedroom'???? Is that all this person knows?"

I finished reading each page.

Chen Ran's hopes were completely dashed.

"However, this is considered a banned book, so I wonder if it's sold on the black market."

After taking stock of his spoils, Chen Ran continued to eat monster meat, drink potent medicine, and train his body.

For now, he doesn't need money.

Naturally, one needs to do everything possible to improve one's own strength.

Who knows, one day the Pure Fire Cult might trace it back to him.

...............

Night fell, and the sky grew increasingly cold.

Donning his night clothes, Chen Ran quietly left Rat Street.

Inside an inn, two experts from the Pure Fire Sect, who were about to make a move against Chen Ran, suddenly noticed their target heading out of Rat Street.

"Hmm, Guo Rong, where is this person headed?"

"How would I know? Perfect, our poison skills are too obvious. Let's see where he goes. If it's in a remote place, we won't have to destroy the evidence."

"Absolutely, absolutely."

The two donned night clothes and quietly followed Chen Ran.

…………….

Xingding Pavilion.

The same location.

Inside the Xingding Pavilion, it still looked like a slaughterhouse, and the smell of blood irritated Chen Ran's nostrils.

In the shadows, Xue Tu's figure was hidden, giving people immense pressure.

"Old Xue, I'd like to buy some more monster meat."

"You finished eating so quickly? It seems your body absorbs food faster than I thought."

There was a hint of surprise in Xue Tu's emotionless voice.

"So, tell me, do you want raw or cooked meat this time?"

Everyone has their own secrets, Xue Tu sighed, and then inquired about Chen Ran's needs.

"Senior, do you have any monster meat that can rapidly increase your Qi and blood strength?"

Chen Ran asked.

"You want to reach level two as soon as possible, right? Yes, it does exist, but it's very expensive."

"One hundred taels per catty, how much do you want?"

"Five catties."

After thinking for a moment, Chen Ran gritted his teeth and announced the quantity he wanted.

He needs to set aside some money to buy expensive medicine, so he can't spend it all.

"for you."

A quarter of an hour later, the flesh of a monster, exuding a strong smell of blood, appeared in front of Chen Ran.

"Senior, what is this?"

"The flesh of the Blood-Kissing Serpent. This kind of monster lives in the Heavenly Pool Blood Swamp in the far west. It is a natural bloodline land, so the blood and qi contained in the flesh of this monster are much more than those of ordinary monsters."

However, it's quite rare here, expensive for powerful groups, and the human body's absorption is limited. Even with long-term use, it only increases one's qi and blood strength by about 10%, so not many people buy it.

When it comes to doing business, Xue Tu has no secrets, or rather, he is completely disdainful of it.

"Can I try some?"

"At your leisure, the knife is to the side."

Xue Tu said indifferently.

Taking the knife, Chen Ran cut off a small piece of bloodsucking snake meat and chewed it slowly.

The meat of the blood-kissed snake was a bit tough, and it tasted pretty much the same as wild boar meat.

As soon as he swallowed it, Chen Ran felt a powerful surge of qi and blood energy erupt from his stomach.

Chen Ran stared intently at the blue energy bar on the panel.

The blue energy bar, which was already halfway through the process, was slowly increasing at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Upon seeing this, a hint of joy flashed through Chen Ran's heart.

This is the monster meat I wanted.

"Thank you, senior."

Chen Ran replied with thanks.

"In such a short time, you actually refined all the life force of the Blood-Kiss Serpent?!?"

From the shadows, Xue Tu's voice carried a hint of shock.

"Excuse me, is there a problem, senpai?"

As Chen Ran spoke, he took a few steps back without making a sound.

"It's nothing, I just thought of some old friends."

Payment settled, goodbye.

For some reason, Chen Ran sensed something inexplicable in what this senior was saying.

Chen Ran took his leave and walked towards the door.

Silence fell in the shadows.

After leaving Xingding Pavilion, Chen Ran headed straight for the largest building in the center of the black market.

After a while, Chen Ran walked out with a strange expression.

The forbidden book in his hand had disappeared, replaced by a brand new book.

Iron Armor Kung Fu.

Literally, this is a manual for external martial arts training.

It is divided into three layers: stone armor, bronze armor, and iron armor.

These correspond to first blood, second blood, and third blood, respectively.

It is a true Three Blood Technique.

"It seems I underestimated the value of this type of book."

This world is still too oppressive.

………….

The Qinghe River rippled, and a light mist hung over the lake.

Chen Ran entered the lakeside reeds near the Black Market Lake, where two figures were lying in wait.

"Guo Rong, we have a way into the black market, why don't we go in and ambush him?"

"No need. Go in from the same place and come out from the same place."

This is an unchanging law of the black market; we just need to ambush him here.

"Is everything ready?"

"Don't worry, the Five-Step Powder is in my hands. As long as you take a sip, as long as the opponent hasn't broken through to the second level of blood, they will surely die."

"Splash~ Splash~"

Just as the two were talking, the sound of rowing came slowly from the white mist.

Chen Ran's eyes shifted amidst the white mist.

The ghost eye appeared, scanning the surroundings.

Since acquiring this talent, Chen Ran has made sure to survey every place he visits.

This is already his basic procedure.

half an hour.

He looked at the two people lying in the grass not far away with some curiosity.

At the same time, he silently took out two crossbows from his hand.

The ship hasn't docked yet.

"Whoosh~"

Two arrows whistled through the air and shot towards the bushes not far away.

"Aaaaaah!!!"

"This arrow is poisoned!!!"

Upon hearing this voice, the boatman, whose face was hideous and terrifying, showed no emotion whatsoever.

Clearly, this person was already used to these things.

A moment later, Chen Ran obtained two unrecognizable corpses.

"hiss!!!"

"Is this snake heart venom that poisonous? It's practically a deadly weapon!"

After all, he only knew that this stuff was poisonous from the book given to him by Wu Heng and his sister, but this was his first time experimenting with it.

Carefully touch the corpse.

I found two small bags on the two people.

After weighing it in his mind, Chen Ran revealed a bright smile.

Under the cover of night, Chen Ran headed home.

Back home, he took out his spoils.

Two bulging money bags appeared on the table.

"Indeed, murder and arson bring wealth and honor; the ancients were right."

The sudden influx of so many money-bringing children caught Chen Ran completely off guard.

He said the more the better.

When he opened one of the bags, the contents inside caught his eye.
