Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest

With the Sun Shooting Bow in hand, Wang Chen stood on the rock, calmly shooting and killing the fleeing rogues.

To deal with these ruffians, he didn't use the Falling Moon Arrow that matched the Sun Shooting Bow, but he still had plenty to spare.

The divine bow, infused with Innate True Qi, gave the arrows an incredible speed and power, shooting hundreds of steps in an instant; no target locked by Wang Chen could escape.

Because of the bow's great power, the arrows often pierced through the bodies of the rogues—if they hit a vital point, death was certain.

Wang Chen was also wearing a Mysterious Black cloak.

This cloak came from Zhao Zhenxuan's secret treasury and was one of the three treasures that caught Elder Yao's discerning eye.

According to this Nascent Soul True Immortal, the cloak was the famous Invisibility Cloak from the Haotian Realm, a Third Order Magical Treasure, exceedingly precious and rare.

However, due to the uniqueness of this world, the Magical Treasure had only begun to show a fraction of its potential in Wang Chen's hands.

There he stood on the rock, his entire being seemingly blending in with the surrounding environment.

If one didn't observe carefully, they wouldn't notice him at all.

The power of the Invisibility Cloak was far greater than this, yet Wang Chen could only achieve so much.

But this granted him a tremendous advantage, allowing him to shoot arrows calmly without being easily discovered by his enemies.

One quiver of arrows emptied, twenty rogue bodies lay scattered on the ground!

It was of no use for these fellows to hide behind the horse carriages, as the arrows, empowered with divine strength, pierced straight through the carriage panels, killing those hiding behind without understanding what had happened.

None could escape.

After stepping into the great realm of Innate, Wang Chen's perception and judgment had dramatically improved, enabling him to shoot faster and more accurately.

As a result, these small fry's greatest contribution was making Wang Chen's Qi-Blood level continuously rise!

He took a deep breath and slung the Sun Shooting Bow back over his shoulder.

He switched to the Overlord Spear and walked towards the caravan.

The travelers in the caravan at this point knew something significant had changed; they thought they might have to sacrifice their lives this time, never imagining they would be rescued at the crucial moment.

Their gratitude towards Wang Chen was overwhelming!

Wang Chen helped the woman who had just woken up to her feet and said, "I'm sorry."

Having received the benefits from Zhao Zhenxuan, Wang Chen had infiltrated the Holy Ancestor's Way the next day to clear out the problematic rogues and bandits.

He didn't search blindly; instead, he analyzed the information he had before patrolling within the designated area.

This approach might seem simple, but it actually involved a lot of detailed work, making it not so easy.

But the results were very effective.

Today was Wang Chen's third day venturing into the Holy Ancestor's Way, and he had caught a group of rogues!

Regrettably, when Wang Chen arrived, he witnessed the scene of the rogues killing the young man traveling with the woman, and he was too late to intervene and rescue him.

Of course, Wang Chen had avenged him!

The woman was distraught, silently weeping, her once relatively pretty face now extremely haggard.

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but her voice was hoarse.

Bang!

Just then, one of the nearby cargo carts suddenly burst open, and a shadow, like a specter, pounced towards Wang Chen, the gleam of a sharp edge fleeting by.

The assailant used a dagger as a weapon, striking swiftly and fiercely; and with the close proximity between them, the likelihood of a successful attack was even higher.

The assailant thought so too, and put all his strength into the attempt.

Then, in that moment of danger, Wang Chen sensed the abnormality and instantly struck out with a heavy palm.

Before the assailant's dagger could reach Wang Chen, he was met with a heavy slap to the chest from Wang Chen's palm, shattering his ribcage.

[Qi-Blood +1000]

The message that popped up in his vision caused Wang Chen to raise an eyebrow—Marrow Refinement Martial Artist!

This was the second Marrow Refinement Martial Artist he had killed today.

After the time it takes an incense stick to burn, the last fleeing rogue was shot dead by Wang Chen.

When he returned to the Heavenly Ladder, an elder came over and respectfully performed a bow, "I have yet to ask for the noble name of my benefactor!"

"Wang Chen."

Wang Chen had no intention of doing a good deed without leaving a name, "Red Cliff City, Wang Chen!"

The elder's face changed instantly, and he bowed again in a panic, "So it is the Holy Master himself, I was ignorant not to recognize the Martial Saint. please have generous leniency."

This man had clearly heard of the name Wang Chen.

And the surrounding traders and travelers, upon hearing his words, were all shocked.

No one had imagined that the person who saved them was an Innate strong fighter!

Holy Master, Martial Saint, these are all titles of respect for Innate strong fighters.

"No need to be so courteous."

Wang Chen waved his hand and asked, "Are you heading to Red Cliff City?"

"Yes."

The elder said with a wry smile, "It's a pity we didn't expect to encounter rogues."

Although the caravan's goods were all preserved, they had lost several skilled hands, and no matter how you looked at it, it was a loss.

The present situation could only be seen as a fortunate turn amidst misfortune.

The elder hesitated as he spoke.

He had originally planned to hire Wang Chen to go to Red Cliff City, having a fierce warrior like him in the team would ensure safety.

But Wang Chen turned out to be an Innate strong fighter, someone not within his capacity to enlist.

Let alone him, even the caravan's backers didn't have the standing to meet Wang Chen as equals!

Wang Chen chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I've already scouted ahead on the road, and didn't find any danger."

If there was any real danger, he had already cleared it out quickly.

Wang Chen had just come from that direction.

The caravan quickly set off again, but this time with a sense of sorrow in the air.

After watching them leave, Wang Chen reached down into the pile of corpses on the ground and grabbed a rogue.

"Stop pretending, you can't fool me."

Wang Chen threw the man heavily onto the open ground beside him and spoke indifferently, "If you cooperate and help me find the others, I guarantee you a way out alive."

This rogue had also been shot with an arrow, but the wound was on his left abdomen. It looked horrifying, but the injury was not fatal.

He tried to play dead to skirt by unnoticed, but there was no fooling Wang Chen's sharp senses!

If it weren't for wanting to follow the trail and catch the bigger fish, Wang Chen would have already delivered a finishing blow.

The Overlord Spear in his hand was not for show!

"Really?"

The rogue who could no longer feign death covered his abdomen and struggled to sit up, "Will you really spare my life, sir?"

Wang Chen sneered, "What are you that you think I would go back on my word and dishonor myself?"

The rogue hurriedly knelt and kowtowed, "I have offended, I am willing to work like a dog or horse for the great Martial Saint!"

If one could avoid death, who would choose to die?

Rogues originally had no integrity and spoke of no loyalty; betraying comrades carried no burden for him.

If Wang Chen was all sweet talk and earnest promises, he would not have believed in Wang Chen's sincerity.

Wang Chen took out a Jade Vase from his chest, poured out a Healing Pill for the man, "Ingest half, apply the other half to the wound."

This fellow was also severely injured; his abdomen was torn open with a large hole and was lucky that no vital parts were hit.

But without prompt treatment, he would still bleed to death.
