In a dense forest within the Chaos Mountains, a figure moved stealthily.

The figure stopped at the foot of a mountain, looked around, and then slowly sat down against a large tree.

This person was none other than Pingfan, who, after killing Zhang Shan, wanted to see what the ape was guarding, but returned empty-handed.

As for why Pingfan was acting so suspiciously, it was mainly because he wanted to explore the area first before choosing a target to attack.

Furthermore, shortly after killing Zhang Shan, some people arrived here. When Pingfan saw the leader, he did not hesitate at all and immediately turned and fled.

However, when Pingfan was on the run, he dared not make a sound and could only leave quietly, so he looked furtive.

Shortly after Pingfan left, they heard a series of roars coming from what seemed to be the direction of the swamp.

However, the roars didn't last long before silence returned.

At this moment, Pingfan understood why these people had come. They probably came to investigate and kill the ape after learning that Zhang Shan had died here.

Therefore, I dare not let anyone discover my current ordinariness.

After all, he didn't know whether the person being chased by the ape had escaped or whether these people had left the area after killing the ape.

At present, even ordinary people can only keep their bodies hidden to avoid being seen by these people.

At that time, it would be difficult for Pingfan to explain himself clearly. If Zhang Liang saw his appearance and knew that he was related to Li Tiansheng and his wife, he would definitely not let him go.

After several days of exploration, Pingfan has gained a general understanding of the strength of some of the demonic beasts.

He marked the monsters he could defeat and the monsters he couldn't defeat.

These markings are generally ignored by most people unless the person is extremely bored and happens to notice them unintentionally.

Pingfan is now thinking about how to allocate the next two weeks, since judging from the old man's demeanor, he really intends to spend a month fighting against the monsters.

But it seems that Zhang Liang's men still remain here. If Pingfan were to fight with the monsters, the noise would surely alert these men.

However, it seems that it won't work if he doesn't fight the demonic beasts. Judging from the old man's words, it seems that he wants to stimulate the demonic beast flesh and blood power dormant in his body by fighting the demonic beasts.

Thinking about it, Pingfan sighed helplessly and said slowly.

"Let's first check if Zhang Liang's men are still here before deciding whether to engage the marked monsters in battle."

After saying that, Pingfan rested there for a while, then began to search furtively again.

Pingfan didn't see a single person named Zhang Liang until nightfall, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and mutter to himself.

"It seems they couldn't find any clues, which is why they had no choice but to leave."

Suddenly, Pingfan thought of these people who had killed the ape. Now he could go and see what was worth Zhang Shan's risk.

With that thought in mind, Pingfan quietly approached the swamp.

A moment later, Pingfan arrived at the swamp and saw the motionless ape carcass lying in the center.

Pingfan looked at the monkeys not far away, then at the surrounding swamp, and suddenly felt a bit troubled.

Although Pingfan is now considered a body cultivator, he cannot fly because he cannot use spiritual power.

However, the nature of swamps is that they can trap anyone or anything that enters them, making escape impossible.

Looking at the center, which was at least a hundred meters away, Pingfan felt a headache coming on.

Now that the ape is dead, Pingfan still can't go and see what's in the center of the swamp.

Just as Pingfan was wondering what to do, she suddenly remembered Zhang Shan's storage bag and quickly took it out.

Pingfan looked at the storage bag in his hand, but then became puzzled, unsure how to use it.

Although I seem to have seen it in a book, the book describes the method of using the storage bag as operating with spiritual power.

But where can ordinary people obtain spiritual power now?

However, we live in a technologically advanced world, so there are always ways to cope.

Then we saw Pingfan flip the storage bag over, grab the bottom, and shake it frantically.

After a long while, Pingfan did not see anything fall out of the storage bag.

Seeing that this method was ineffective, Pingfan began to test other methods.

After trying various methods without success, Pingfan put the storage bag away again, looking dejected.

"It seems I'll have to use spiritual power to open the storage bag."

The thought of spiritual power made Pingfan feel somewhat frustrated; he feared he would never be able to use the storage bag again in his lifetime.

After all, ordinary meridians are useless meridians. Although they are slowly recovering, it will take thousands of years to fully recover.

But by then, the grass on Pingfan's grave will probably be taller than a person.

Seeing that there was no way to reach the center of the swamp, Pingfan simply stopped thinking about what had made Zhang Shan risk his life and turned to leave.

Not long after Pingfan left, the ape lying in the center of the ground stirred slightly.

After leaving, Pingfan went to find demonic beasts and began to temper his body.

During the battle with the monsters, no one else appeared, which allowed Pingfan to walk around openly and no longer sneak around, looking for monsters to fight.

After Pingfan dealt with the tenth monster, he felt a burning sensation in his body and quickly found a safe place to rest.

"Ah~"

From a secluded cave, heart-wrenching screams echoed, startling the birds in the trees into taking flight and hovering around the cave.

Inside the cave, Pingfan lay sprawled on the ground, his body contorting in agony, his cheeks flushed red, as if he were being roasted over a fire.

With a plaintive, painful roar, cracks appeared on his skin, which continued to spread throughout his body.

"Ah~"

After Pingfan's desperate cry of pain, a golden light emanated from his body.

When the golden light faded, inside the cave, the ground was covered with dead skin, and there was also a naked ordinary person.

After a moment, Pingfan moved his body and then slowly stood up.

But when he saw the naked body, Pingfan couldn't help but scream.

"Huh? What's going on?"

Pingfan hurriedly scanned the cave, and breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw the clothes scattered all over the ground.

However, upon seeing the dead skin scattered on the ground, he couldn't help but gasp and exclaim.

"Why is there dead skin here? Could there be a snake here?"

After saying that, Pingfan quickly grabbed the clothes on the ground, put them on, and then began to search the place carefully.

After discovering there were no snakes, Pingfan squatted down, looked at the dead skin on the ground, picked up a piece, and examined it carefully.

Looking at the dead skin in his hand, Pingfan frowned slightly and asked in confusion.

"This looks like something a person shed; it seems like I'm the only one here."
