The skeleton wanted to leave the house and go out hunting but when it looked outside, the sun was still pouring down its cleansing light.
The skeleton decided to wait in the seating room. It brought out the piece of cloth that contained the Wind Blade skill.
It began comprehending this skill with all its focus.
The young girl fortunately stayed unconscious the entire day. When the sun finally went down, the skeleton knew that it was finally its time. It used its skill (Life Sense ).
It wanted to choose targets that could offer more Corpse Qi. Killing normal humans would become of no benefit to it.
Using the Life Sense skill, it could pick powerful cultivators who would produce more corpse Qi.
It confirmed that the young girl was still asleep before it left eh house. It was completely covered from head to toe by the black cloak.
The skeleton walked on the rowdy streets like any other human. When it passed by a human, they would feel a chill go through their body but this was all.
The skeleton was making an effort to restrain its aura. It wanted to turn the Hundred Man Town into the perfect hunting ground. This meant preserving the facade of peace for as long as possible. As it walked, it used its Life Sense art to observe the humans.
It walked around the town for over two hours without finding a suitable prey.
It wanted people who had already completed the Martial Phase and entered the path of the immortal. Hundred Man Town was large and the skeleton was patient. It walked until it finally came across such a person. It was a middle-aged woman. She was buying clothes from a store. She was curvaceous with full breasts and a round plump ass.
She attracted a lot of attention on the streets.
When the skeleton saw her, it decided on her as its target. The woman was escorted by several servants and guards. They moved from one store to another.
The skeleton followed them from a fair distance away ensuring that they stayed within the range of its Life Sense skill.
The woman spent an entire hour shopping.
When she was done, she entered a carriage and left the shopping district.
The skeleton followed the carriage.
It stopped in front of a mansion.
The skeleton saw the carriage enter this mansion. The place was guarded by guards that were as powerful as the woman. This increased the skeleton's targets.
It did not have any emotions but it was still excited to find more sources of Corpse Qi.
The skeleton moved around the mansion until it found a place on the wall where security was lux.
It easily jumped over the wall and entered the mansion. It could still sense the woman and so it decided to finish her off first.
It moved through the mansion and with its life sense skill, it easily avoided running into other humans. It looked through a window and saw that the woman was eating food with a few other people. The skeleton had not known that humans needed to eat. It patiently waited until when the woman finished eating. It followed her into her bedroom. She showered and went to bed.
The skeleton watched her through the window and waited for the man inside the room with her to leave. The man undressed the woman and the two had sex for some time. The skeleton did not understand what was happening but it still waited. The man was as powerful as the woman but killing both of them at the same time would cause too much chaos.
Eventually, the two people were exhausted and went to sleep.
The skeleton easily entered the room and stood over the man and woman. It was having second thoughts. Not about killing but whom to kill first. The skeleton found the woman much more pleasing to the eye and for this reason, changed its target to the man.
The skeleton did not know why it chose the man but it pushed these thoughts to the back of its mind.
It wanted to kill the man without causing any commotion and for this reason, it struck quickly. It grabbed the man's mouth to prevent any sound from escaping. It then punched him through the heart. The skeleton also released a massive quantity of darkness qi into the man's body. The man's eyes were wide open and the last thing he saw was the skeleton's face. The skeleton quickly circulated its Decomposition Skill and quickly turned the man into black dust. It also absorbed all the blood leaving nothing behind. This time, the skeleton gathered up the dust before quickly leaving the mansion.
The skeleton rushed through the street. It passed a small restaurant but it quickly turned around and entered the place. Inside, it had sensed just a single weak life force. It killed the only human inside before leaving with all the food it could carry.
This food was for the young girl. It had learned that humans needed to eat and since the young girl had not eaten the entire day, it needed to return to the house with food.
Back in the house, it found that the young girl had woken up.
The girl began screaming the moment she saw the intruder. The skeleton moved so fast that she could not keep track of it. It knocked her out for a second time.
The skeleton carried her to a chair and tied her up. Even her mouth was tied up. The skeleton put the food on the table before sitting down in the opposite chair. It removed its cloak and looked at its battle axe.
[Corpse Qi: Ten Units ]
[Skills: Life Sense---Stage Two...Upgrade, Decomposition-----Stage One...Upgrade.]
[Unknown Cultivation Technique----Level One...Upgrade]
The skeleton was first impressed that the single male he had killed had produced ten units of corpse Qi. It could now also upgrade its skills. This confirmed that it was correct to think that it needed Corpse Qi for it to upgrade its skills.
It was surprised by the unknown cultivation technique.
It had learned that the humans used skills, arts, techniques and other things to increase their power.
It had read through the Wind Blade skill to cultivate the skill like the humans but it had failed to achieve anything the entire day.
It looked through the writings of the unknown cultivation technique and the more it read, the more it comprehended the technique, the more it came to a realization.
The technique had been formed from all its information, especially the comprehension it had gotten from the Wind Blade Technique.
