Chapter 96: Who Dares Call Me A Demonic Cultivator When I’m Just A Humble Robber!When Han Xuhan and Mu Ran had entered the hidden world fragment for the first time, the sunshine had told them that noontime was about to peak. Since then, more than eight hours have passed.
Within the deeper layers of the foggy region, it was impossible to tell whether the sun was still up or not. The darkness that gradually enveloped their surroundings with the progress of their exploration didn’t seem to be a mere product of the night.
The fog was becoming thicker, and harder to navigate through. The noise and aura of chaotic battles were coming from every direction. The reason wasn’t hard to guess.
On one hand, the frequency of encountering zombies had increased, the type that had been soaking in the poisonous fog for a long time. Their mutations were more extreme, their strength was higher, and their monstrous desperation for prey was only getting worse every second.
On the other hand, the number of emerald orbs was increasing the deeper they went. These mobile power banks for law fragments could not only save their lives here, but they could also be sold to the local sects for a high price, or even taken back for re

Since everyone is trying their best to collect the power sources, you can actually avoid a majority of the scuffles and still reap the benefits if you’re smart enough to not run around mindlessly and simply guard the bigger orbs that attract a lot of attention.
"That way, your strength and focus will remain at the peak and you’ll never walk into another group’s ambush. Instead, you can bait and defeat the ragged cultivators who reach your power source after long, difficult battles.
"What a hateful strategy it is! Those who would ambush other hardworking cultivators like this surely must be demonic scums."
Hearing Xuanyuan Zhou’s explanation, Han Xuhan’s awkward feelings only spiked higher.
Wasn’t was the exact strategy he himself had come up with before meeting Mu Ran and Xuanyuan Zhou? It was rather embarrassing to see someone badmouthing his ’big brain strategy’.
Exactly what was so sinister about it? Hmph!
Only fools would refuse to acknowledge such genius plans. Perhaps this was the curse of being too smart.
Quiet as a corpse, he could only wallow in his narcissistic self-pity.
