The genius who counterattacked the mainland

Xu Tiancai had been training in this forest for a long time, and he gradually realized that the monsters here were too easy for him to deal with and could no longer meet his needs for training. He knew that if he wanted to become stronger, he must challenge stronger enemies and explore unknown areas.

So, Xu Tiancai decided to venture deeper into the forest. He carried a simple backpack, a sharp sword in hand, his eyes filled with determination and anticipation. The forest was filled with a damp air, and sunlight filtered through the dense branches, creating patches of light. Xu Tiancai advanced cautiously, always on guard.

Not long after he started walking, he encountered a gigantic monster. This monster was covered in hard scales and spewed flames from its mouth. Xu Tiancai's heart trembled, he knew it would be a tough battle. He clenched the sword in his hand, and with a flash of his body, he rushed towards the monster. The monster roared, waving its huge claws and pounced on Xu Tiancai. Xu Tiancai dodged flexibly, looking for the monster's weakness. After a fierce battle, Xu Tiancai finally found the monster's weakness and stabbed it in the vitals with a sword. The monster fell to the ground with a bang. Xu Tiancai wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled with satisfaction.

Continuing deeper into the forest, Xu Tiancai encountered many powerful monsters. With his courage and wisdom, he defeated them again and again. In the battles, he continuously improved his strength. Besides battling monsters, Xu Tiancai also kept an eye out for the various precious resources in the forest. He discovered some rare herbs and minerals, which were very valuable in the outside world. He carefully collected these and placed them in his bag.

After a period of exploration, Xu Tiancai felt he had gained a lot. He decided to head to a nearby town to rest and recuperate. Nestled on the edge of the forest, the town, though small, was bustling with activity. As Xu Tiancai entered the town, he immediately caught everyone's attention. His bloodstained clothes and determined gaze made him a brave adventurer.

Xu Tiancai found an inn and asked for a room. He showered, changed into clean clothes, and then sat on his bed to pack his bag. He took out the precious herbs and minerals, examining them carefully. These items could not only bring him a considerable fortune, but also provide him with more help on his adventure.

At the inn, Xu Tiancai also met some other adventurers. They exchanged stories and information. Xu Tiancai learned from them that deep within the continent lay a mysterious ancient city, said to contain countless treasures and powerful magic. This information intrigued Xu Tiancai, and after resting, he decided to explore the ancient city.

However, Xu Tiancai knew the journey to the ancient city would be fraught with danger. He remained undaunted, believing that only by constantly challenging himself could he become stronger. In the small town, Xu Tiancai purchased some necessary equipment and supplies to prepare for his upcoming adventure.

After a few days of rest, Xu Tiancai embarked on another adventure. With his backpack on his back and determined steps, he headed deeper into the continent. He had no idea what lay ahead, but his heart was filled with anticipation. He believed that as long as he persevered, he would be able to carve out a niche for himself on this land teeming with mystery and danger.

After Xu Tiancai leaves town, a mysterious figure continues to watch him from the shadows. Who is this figure? What is his purpose? All of this sets the stage for the following chapters.
