Chapter 9: Entering Wushan City

"So powerful!"

After breaking through to the first level of the Blood Condensation Realm, Qin Xingchen felt the surging spiritual power within him and could not help but exclaim. "With my current physical strength, I am already comparable to a sixth-level Blood Condensation Realm expert. Coupled with the various means at my disposal, I might even be able to fight against a master at the eighth level of the Blood Condensation Realm!"

He then took out Lu Wenfeng’s storage ring to inspect it. Inside, among other things, there were over two hundred low-grade spirit stones and more than one hundred mid-grade spirit stones. There was also a martial arts manual titled "Frenzied Slash Blade Technique."

Wushan Town was bustling with a constant flow of people. However, it was also a place of chaos; not only were all kinds of contraband sold here, but robbery and murder were daily occurrences. In this place, strength was everything.

Bounty hunters often came to the town lord’s manor to accept various missions. Most of these tasks were publicly issued by powerful factions within the Tianhe Dynasty, primarily targeting the exotic beasts and rare treasures found within the Luoyin Mountain Range. Additionally, many disciples from nearby aristocratic families and sects frequently entered the mountains to hunt beasts and gain experience.

The Luoyin Mountain Range stretched for hundreds of miles and was extremely vast. Since this was his first time entering, Qin Xingchen decided to purchase a map of the mountains to avoid getting lost.

Just as he decided to find a shop selling maps, a little girl accidentally bumped into him.

"Big brother, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to! I
