I Become Invincible By Signing In Chapter 12 – Leaving the City

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Six years after the Apocalypse, a mysterious explosion happened in the capital of the Ming Dynasty. It was called the Apocalypse Big Bang!

In the next few years, the spirit qi of the world started to revive. Then, the martial artists slowly realized that nowadays, one day of cultivation was equivalent to one month of cultivation in the past. The cultivation speed had become so fast that it was as if they were traveling a thousand miles a day!

The might of a cultivation technique had become even more terrifying. In the past, the most powerful experts could only open a stone tablet. Now, the most outstanding ones could shatter mountains and destroy rivers with their swords!

However, spirit qi was not only beneficial to humans, but also to wild animals, birds, and various other animals.

While the strength of humans was increasing rapidly, the strength of the animals was also increasing at an even faster speed.

They developed peacefully for a few years.

Then, a war broke out all of a sudden, and the humans were caught off guard. Unexpectedly, in a few years, the animals had turned into terrifying beasts that were far more powerful than the humans. Humanity then fell into a dark era that lasted for decades.

The human population had dropped from tens of billions to less than a billion in a few decades.

The war was like a fire. There were always those who would rise from the ashes. During these decades, there were also unmatched experts who rose up. They established giant cities, stopped the vicious beasts, and built giant walls. Thus, they ended the dark era that lasted for several decades.

From then on, the humans lived within the giant cities, while the beasts took over the endless wilderness and divided them up among themselves. Until now, only the strong could enter the wilderness.

What Wang Yi wanted to do was to go out of the city and hunt some ferocious beasts from the Spiritual Food Catalog. Then, he wanted to try out the legendary cooking skills he had obtained.

Ignoring the fact that it was already one in the morning, he took out his phone and dialed a number.

The call went through shortly after. “Hello, who is this?”

A man sounded from the other end of the phone. He sounded weak and he probably has just woken up.

“I'm Wang Yi. Let's change our meeting time today. Prepare the kitchenware and wait for me in the private suite at 11 am. There's no need to prepare food!”

After the call was picked up, Wang Yi didn't care if the other party heard him clearly. After he finished speaking, he hung up.

Inwardly, he was delighted. A few days ago, he had wanted to find an opportunity to compensate Fang Mingze and thank him for his help towards the Su family. Today, he could settle these two matters.

Fang Mingze's luck was pretty good.

Coincidentally, he had drawn the “Liu Maoxing Peak Cooking Card” today. In addition to the argument he had thought of when he met Fang Mingze previously, today was definitely his lucky day!

At that moment, Fang Mingze was dumbfounded. Grandmaster Wang had called so late at night and said such nonsense. What did he mean?

However, he didn't dare to be negligent. He recalled Wang Yi's words and remembered a few keywords — “11 AM,” “kitchenware,” “no need to prepare food.” Then, he continued to sleep.

He put the phone back into his pocket.

Sometimes, Wang Yi felt really helpless. In this world, everything that was related to martial arts was very advanced and had developed well.

However, ordinary technology was somewhat unsatisfactory. It was only at the standard where Earth was at in the year 2000. For example, phones only had screens, but no entertainment applications.

The sentimental feeling only lasted for an instant. Then, Wang Yi appeared on the streets. Cang City at night was pitch black and looked no longer as prosperous as it was in the day.

In a few flashes, he disappeared into the night like a ghost.

When he reappeared, he was already at the edge of the city wall. Wang Yi was a little surprised. He knew that his speed was very fast, but he didn't expect it to be this fast.

His speed was at least 500 meters per second, and that was not even him using his full strength. Furthermore, Cang City was huge and could accommodate more than 10 million people. However, it only took a few minutes for him to travel from the center of the city to the city wall!

This was a little scary.

When he stood at the bottom of the city wall, he felt very shocked and suffocated. The height of the wall was at least 100 meters, and it was more than 30 meters thick. In the dark night, it was like a sleeping dragon coiling its body and protecting Cang City.

Wang Yi bent his knees slightly and exerted a little more strength. He leaped up and surpassed the city wall by a large margin. Then, like a huge bird, he landed on the ground silently. No one discovered him all the way up.

The city and the wilderness had become two different worlds. There were unknown weeds that were taller than humans everywhere in the wilderness. The leaves were like saw teeth, and there were broken bones on the ground from time to time. From the looks of it, these bones should be the remains of the late humans in the dark era.

There was a faint shadow of a building in front of him. It should have been a village in the past. There were quite a number of ferocious beasts flashing past inside, letting out waves of beast roars.

Wang Yi did not have a specific goal. He simply wandered aimlessly. This hell-like wilderness was more like his own backyard.

However, his spiritual energy covered the area within a few kilometers. He carefully scanned the area. Although there were no targets around, there was nothing wrong with using his spiritual energy to find some powerful beasts.

After all, the stronger the beast, the better it would taste.

Before long, Wang Yi stopped in his tracks. He extended his right index finger and pointed at the void.

A surge of sharp true qi shot out from the tip of his finger like lightning. Then, it appeared a few hundred meters away in an instant.

Bang!

The sound of something heavy falling to the ground could be heard.

A three-meter-tall, elk-like creature covered in black fur slowly fell to the ground behind a giant tree. A bloody hole—the width of a finger had appeared on its forehead and blood flowed out from it.

Wang Yi's figure swayed and disappeared from where he was standing. He instantly appeared beside the gigantic tree. With a wave of his hand, the fallen creature appeared in the system space.

Then, a smile appeared on his face. He did not expect to obtain a Shadow Elk as soon as he left the city!

Not bad. This was a good start!

Although the Shadow Elk was not strong and could only reach Rank-3 at best, it was a very precious and rare spiritual ingredient.

The Shadow Elk had a very special innate ability that allowed it to blend into the surroundings. It was very difficult to detect it with the naked eye.

Even with Wang Yi's strength, he could not see it with his naked eye. One could imagine how terrifying this ability was.

However, this ability was not invincible.

It had an obvious weakness. It could not block the detection of spiritual power.

Wang Yi was only able to discover it because his spiritual power had enveloped the area a few miles around him.

The reason why the Shadow Elk was so precious was that it required a Grandmaster-Rank expert to constantly scan the area with their spiritual power in order to discover and capture it. Using spiritual power continuously was quite a burden—even for a Grandmaster-Rank expert.

In addition, even though the Shadow Elk had a delectable taste, the amount of spirit qi it contained was average. Thus, it was not too precious.

As a result, there were very few grandmasters who would spend so much effort to search for Shadow Elks in order to satisfy their appetite. Therefore, Shadow Elks were extremely rare in the market!

Without wasting too much time, Wang Yi continued deeper into the wilderness. After all, this was only the beginning.

The scenery around him rapidly changed. In the dark night, Cang City was like a giant slumbering beast that gradually became smaller until it completely disappeared from sight.
