  Fan Ze was very angry.

  It was true.

  As a native of Qing Ming City, and one of the few cultivators who managed to attain four-star here, he was fuming now.

  How dare someone set their designs on him?

  Who gave them the courage?!

  It was still not as bad if it was in other places.

  But over here!

  At his house!

  How dare they come looking for him?!

  He was mad.

  Did the door offend them? How dare they shatter it to pieces!

  Hence……

  A furious Fan Ze went on a killing spree in the haze!

  Those who did not know why they were here all dropped dead. By the time Fan Ze went back, he realized that his most precious thing was missing.

  “That was to lure an enemy away from his territory.”


  Fan Ze gritted his teeth.

  He had fallen for it.

  And what surprised him the most was——


  There was no aura!

  He had clearly set up many restraints and prohibitions in the wooden box, but none of them worked.

  All of them failed!

  “Perhaps I really have to install a surveillance camera?”


  Fan Ze shook his head.

  Forget it.

  This type of electronic device was even more dangerous!

  Ever since some of his private images were uploaded to the website that starts with p for no reason, he vowed that he would not waste his time in this life on crappy electronic equipment!

  There was no personal privacy whatsoever!

  They were all liars!

  They were worse than thieves!

  “These traces……”


  Fan Ze began to look for clues.

  Apart from the door that was destroyed, the prohibitions remained intact.

  Well……

  In his memory, the only person who had such ability and could get past the ban, and happened to be in Qing Ming City was none other than Cloud Explorer, Chu Xiao!

  He was a stalker.

  He should be an assassin, but he ended up being a thief.

  He could steal all things unnoticed, he was extremely powerful, therefore so far, no one was able to catch him.

  Because he was very smart.

  He would never provoke people who were more capable than him!

  “Is he looking down on me?”


  Fan Ze smiled.

  To him, am I someone to be trifled with?

  Very well.

  Well, Chu Xiao……

  Have you forgotten that this place was my territory!

  Buzz—


  His wristband vibrated.

  “I’ve found you.”


  Fan Ze looked at the location on the wristband before he waved his hands and turned to leave. Before leaving, he thought about it and decided to activate all the prohibitions.

  Shush!

  Shush!

  Layers of layers of restraints and prohibitions had been activated, blocking all the nearby areas.

  Fan Ze finally left.

  However……

  He did not know that shortly after he left, there was a flow of light within the cave and a figure appeared. It was Lu Ming who had returned to reality!

  Buzz—


  The lights vanished in front of him.

  Lu Ming stared dazedly at the sight in front of him.

  Oh.

  Still in the cave.

  It was just that the fog and rumbling sounds outside were gone, it seemed very quiet. Lu Ming surmised that the battling cultivators must have left.

  The World of Darkness and Shadows seemed like a dream.

  Those people……

  Those shadows……

  Lu Ming shook his head.

  It was better to leave here for now.

  This cave must be an illegal building cleared by some big shot. He would be in trouble if the person was back and he was caught.

  He had better leave as soon as possible.

  Lu Ming went back along the same road.

  The cave was really huge, it seemed like some kind of cultivating abode.

  As expected, it was used by the big shots to cultivate!

  Lu Ming realized something in his heart.

  He left quickly.

  But when he was ready to leave, he suddenly realized that not far in distance was a landscape view, and there was a Charging Card in the center.

  A powerful aura surrounded it.

  In the spring water.

  The flow of light surged, countless energy churned.

  Lu Ming took a look and was shocked. There was an extremely powerful Energy Stone in the spring water and there was an energy increasing device as well.

  Yes.

  Energy increasing device!

  It was a device that could shatter Energy Stones and dissipate the energy!

  A Card Creator would extract the energy from the Energy Stone and store it in the card, while this device would simply destroy the Energy Stone!

  It destroyed the Energy Stone by force, so that the energy that it contained would dissipate into the air.

  This would then increase the energy concentration!

  Under normal circumstances, such devices were only available when one opened a cultivating place or room.

  Over here……

  Where the four-star big shot stayed, the device seemed to be operating the entire day!

  Lu Ming looked up, the energy around the spring water would not overflow, instead it would turn in circles and ended up in the special Charging Card.

  The Charging Card was not an ordinary card.

  In addition to its own function, it exuded a faint vortex wind attracting energy to it!

  It was a brilliant design.

  Lu Ming exclaimed in shock.

  However……

  He did not understand the meaning behind all this.

  One had to spend money to buy Energy Stones and to turn Energy Stones into energy, and to charge the Charging Card. It was a waste of energy?!

  Why couldn’t one simply buy an Energy Card?

  That was being too stupid!

  Even if the conversion rate was as high as 90%, it was still considered a loss!

  Could it be that big shots are used to be wilful?

  Look at the ores.

  The last time he was in contact with such Energy Ores, he was doing his internship and those Energy Ores were of lower quality. But look at those of this place, those were……

  Pure!

  Perfect!

  Natural!

  “Natural?”


  Lu Ming finally understood.

  No.

  It’s not right.

  There was a problem with this place!

  The person chose this place not because he could not afford to buy a house. More importantly, this seemed to be a very clean ore vein!

  The ore of the energy increasing device was natural!

  They did not need to spend any money!

  Lu Ming finally understood.

  He designed an energy channel and used the natural ore vein to charge the Charging Card.

  Amazing!

  The Charging Card must be customized!

  He was in awe.

  However……

  Lu Ming looked at the pure and perfect Charging Card and at the surging energy, he could not help but feel dry in the throat.

  Right now……

  There seemed to be no one around.

  The big shot had left as well!

  He was tempted.

  The card……

  Lu Ming felt passion burning inside of him.

  However……

  Just when he was about to reach out to the card, he suddenly stopped. If his guess was correct, it had been a long while since he went to the World of Darkness and Shadows.

  Since time had passed, how could the other party not have realized that the bell was missing?

  If the other party had realized it……

  Why didn’t the other party set up any protection?

  Lu Ming thought about it.

  He pondered and summoned a little soldier.

  Pfft!

  The little soldier had yet to go near and was killed on the spot!

  Lu Ming was speechless.

  True enough.

  Although the other party had left, given that the bell had been stolen, he still activated all the restraints and barriers. There was no way that Lu Ming could get the card.

  Let’s go.

  Lu Ming sighed.

  He would not be able to get past the barriers set by the four-star big shot.

  Well……

  Why did he have to crack it?

  Lu Ming arched his eyebrows, if that was the case……

  He approached cautiously.

  He calculated the position and direction of the Charging Card, and he pulled out the device solemnly and inserted the Burial Mound Card, directing it at the position below the Charging Card and activated it!

  Bang!

  The flag and the Burial Mound Warrior appeared.

  It climbed out under Lu Ming’s command. Right at the moment he was out……

  Swoosh!

  Cold lights flashed.

  “Throw it!”


  Lu Ming commanded.

  The Burial Mound Warrior grabbed the Charging Card and threw it towards.

  Swoosh!

  At that moment.

  Cold lights surged.

  Countless cold lights surged through the Burial Mound Warrior from the top to the bottom. It died a terrible death. The lights cut through it everywhere, nothing was left intact.

  He was after all a three-star Burial Mound Warrior…… but he had no dignity in death.

  However……

  At least he had accomplished his mission.

  “Got it!”


  Lu Ming was elated.

  Let’s go!

  He turned and ran without any hesitation.

  At this very moment……

  In a distant place in the suburbs.

  A group of people were escaping frantically.

  “Has Fan Ze, the old man, gone crazy?”


  A yellow-haired young man was flustered and exasperated. “Does he need to go to this extent of killing people?”


  “Crap, you blew up his door……”


  The other person sighed.

  “I had no idea it was his house!”


  The yellow-haired man was angry. “I am here to clear the mines. He used hidden barriers and hence I couldn’t see anything and I just blew them up. How was I to know that it was the door of his house!!”


  Damn it!

  They sensed that there might have Energy Ores in the area and therefore they gone looking for it.

  God knew this would happen.

  He had no idea that he would blow up Fan Ze’s house!

  Bang!

  Bang!

  The sounds of explosions in the distance approached them.

  “He has caught up with us again!”


  The yellow-haired man looked ashen.

  Damn!

  He only blown up his door!

  He did not do anything to his ancestral grave. Did he need to go to this extent?!
