With Cultivation Simulator in a Chaotic World-Chapter 307 - 259: Demon Sect

"Cough..."

Xiang Wuji coughed twice, slowly opening his eyes.

"Where is this..."

He saw around him dried grass, and he was thrown onto a pile of it, covered carelessly by two pieces of coarse cloth.

"My head hurts..."

"I’m so hungry..."

Xiang Wuji held his head and sat up.

Under the coarse cloth was his bare body without any covering; his previous clothes and even his storage bag were nowhere to be found.

In the storage bag were most of his accumulated resources from the Minghuang Market and Everlasting Sect, including a rare Golden Core Spiritual Object extremely beneficial to forming a Golden Core.

"Woof woof"

There was a commotion outside, and a yellow dog poked its head in, curiously watching Xiang Wuji.

Soon, there was the dragging sound of a wooden basin, which seemed to be a makeshift food bowl for the yellow dog, containing some leftover scraps, perhaps its meal.

The old yellow dog barked twice at Xiang Wuji, nudging the bowl as if signaling him to eat.

Xiang Wuji got up, immediately feeling the pain all over his body.

Memories surged in his mind—those giant Spiritual Qi hands descending from above, an unstoppable force like heaven’s wrath...

Nascent Soul!

Is this what a Nascent Soul Cultivator is like... Back in the Everlasting Sect, Xiang Wuji had seen this demoness, but at that time, she hadn’t paid him any attention at all.

But now, there was overwhelming killing intent.

Xiang Wuji momentarily admired the Red Blood Dragon King for daring to challenge the Nascent Soul Cultivator without reaching the Nascent Soul himself, while also cursing, if not for the Red Blood Dragon King’s unnecessary actions, he wouldn’t have been entangled in the Blood Curse.

Even after escaping death, he was detected and killed by the passing demoness sensing his presence...

"How did I... come back to life..."

Looking at his hands, Xiang Wuji saw his pale, newborn-like hands.

He could clearly feel that he had brushed past death.

His True Essence Cultivation had drastically decreased, and even the powerful body from the Giant Spirit Ghost Chapter was mostly shattered.

But at least his cultivation remains intact, avoiding a complete re-cultivation...

However, he lacked a Magic Artifact Talisman, and his meridians hadn’t fully recovered, even his Qi Fortune was sluggish.

A dignified Foundation Establishment Cultivator, yet his combat strength was currently inferior to that of a mere Martial Artist.

"This is bad..."

If he still had his storage bag, relying on the pills inside, Xiang Wuji could quickly regain at least Early-Stage Foundation Establishment strength; now it was troublesome...

As for how he revived... Xiang Wuji didn’t think about it for now; the priority was to recover his cultivation.

"Woof?"

The old yellow dog looked at Xiang Wuji strangely.

Why isn’t this person eating?

The dog’s commotion attracted the attention of its owner.

"Young master has finally woken up..."

"San Niang, bring some food for the young master."

An old man walked in.

"Was the young master harmed by the river bandits of Jinmiao River?"

"Surviving is indeed a great fortune..."

"May I ask, old sir, where is this place?"

"The Qianluo Dynasty, a small, inconspicuous village by the Jinmiao River in Zhaoge County..."

[You have died and resurrected.]

[You learned from others that this is a place called the Qianluo Dynasty; you truly don’t know where exactly it is in the Cultivation Realm, nor whether there is any Cultivation Influence here.]

[You thanked those who took you in and asked for a set of coarse hemp clothes.]

[You began searching for a Cultivation Market, hoping to find pills to quickly recover your cultivation.]

[Three days later, you were robbed in the mountains by bandits. You counterattacked, killing thirteen agile bandits, but were eventually captured and bound.]

[You quietly bided your time, eventually killing the bandit leader, overturning the entire camp, and escaping.]

[You only felt it was absurd that a Foundation Establishment Cultivator would be outwitting ordinary bandits.]

[Walking through the forest, you sensed the friendliness of Spirit Beasts and demon beasts, even when passing through a demon beast’s territory, it merely watched curiously without attacking.]

[This made you ponder whether you might have awakened a special constitution, and perhaps your resurrection was due to this special constitution.]

[Sensing the rich patterns of Spiritual Qi, you deduced possible locations for markets.]

[Five days later, a Spirit Deer shared a small piece of reishi with you, and you felt your body recovered a lot, bowing in gratitude to the Spirit Deer.]

[Eight days later, you discovered a lone white-clad girl in the forest, looking pitiful, and you immediately chose to flee, narrowly escaping disaster.]

[On the fifteenth day, your Qi-Blood was somewhat flowing, allowing you to sit down and cultivate for healing.]

[By the eighteenth day, your body could already rival an Innate Grandmaster, barely restoring some strength.]

[On the twenty-first day, passing through the forest, you found traces of human habitation and hints of a market.]

[By the twenty-fifth day, you were near a market, and with your understanding of markets, you could easily enter even without True Essence.]

[On the same day, you encountered a Tribulation Cultivator.]

[The Demon Blood within you awakened, enabling you to kill the Tribulation Cultivator, though you fled, severely injured.]

[Someone saved you...] 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Cough cough..."

Xiang Wuji’s clothes were already tattered.

What he wore was not a magic robe, but rather ordinary coarse cloth clothing of a common household.

Having survived the perilous journey through the forest and the deadly encounter with the Tribulation Cultivator, Xiang Wuji now looked like a pauper who had been beaten, a beggar even.
