Ever since Ouyang Kuishan gave the order to collect medicinal herbs, his men have swarmed into Nightfall City and the surrounding areas like wolves, frantically collecting the medicinal herbs needed for their training. They openly robbed and seized, resorting to any means to achieve their goals.

In a pharmacy, several henchmen of the Black Wolf Gang barged in. The pharmacy owner looked at them in horror and said in a trembling voice, "Gentlemen, my shop is small and operates on thin margins. We really don't have that many precious medicinal herbs."

The leader of the henchmen glared at him fiercely: "Enough with the nonsense! Hand over all the bone-strengthening and blood-tonifying herbs in your shop, or we'll smash your store!"

The pharmacy owner had no choice but to watch helplessly as they looted all the medicinal herbs in his shop.

In another town, the Black Wolf Gang acted even more brazenly. They stormed into a wealthy family's storeroom and forcibly seized their treasured medicinal herbs. The homeowner tried to stop them but was beaten severely.

Meanwhile, Ouyang Kuishan began his arduous training journey in the secret chamber. Following the secret manual of the Scale Armor Technique, he first ingested several rare herbs, immediately feeling a surge of heat within his body. Then, he gritted his teeth and used a specially made wooden stick to fiercely strike his entire body. Each strike brought excruciating pain; veins bulged on his forehead, and sweat poured down like rain. But he endured it, constantly emitting low, angry roars.

As his cultivation deepened, the pain intensified. His body felt as if it were being torn apart; his muscles trembled incessantly, and his bones cracked and popped. But Ouyang Kuishan had only one thought in his mind: to become stronger!

Lin Yu and his group first overheard the people's discussions while they were out purchasing supplies.

"Have you heard? The Black Wolf Gang has been robbing medicinal herbs everywhere lately, they're absolutely insane!" an old man said worriedly.

"That's right, they've emptied out all the pharmacies owned by my relatives. We can't make a living like this anymore," a middle-aged man complained angrily.

Lin Yu's heart stirred, and he felt that this matter was quite strange, so he became more cautious.

Back at his lodgings, Lin Yu instructed his men to keep a close eye on the Black Wolf Gang's movements. A few days later, they received news that the Black Wolf Gang was not only robbing medicinal herbs in towns, but also sending people deep into the mountains to search for rare herbs, and had even clashed with other gangs over this.

Lin Yu began to suspect that the Black Wolf Gang's large-scale collection of medicinal herbs had ulterior motives. Therefore, he decided to personally go to Nightfall City to investigate.

In the city of Nightfall, Lin Yu, disguised as an ordinary merchant, secretly observed the Black Wolf Gang's every move. He noticed that the gang members were in a hurry, looked nervous, and wherever they went, the people looked fearful.

In a restaurant, Lin Yu overheard a conversation between two henchmen of the Black Wolf Gang.

"These past few days have been exhausting. I don't know what's gotten into the gang leader, but he insists on having so many medicinal herbs."

"What do you know? I heard that the gang leader is cultivating a powerful technique that requires these medicinal herbs."

"Is there really such a powerful technique?"

"Of course, I've heard that once you master it, you'll be invincible."

Lin Yu was startled upon hearing this. He realized that Ouyang Kuishan's actions could pose a significant threat to everyone.

After returning to his residence, Lin Yu told everyone what he had heard.

Lin Feng frowned and said, "Brother, Ouyang Kuishan has always been ruthless. If he masters a powerful martial art, we'll be in danger."

Xiao Jinzhi chimed in, "Yes, we must find a way to stop him."

Lin Yu pondered for a moment and said, "Let's send people to continue gathering information and see if we can find out what kind of cultivation technique he is practicing before making any further plans."

So they sent out clever spies to infiltrate Night City in an attempt to find more clues.

A few days later, the scout finally brought back detailed information.

"Brother Lin Yu, from what I've heard, Ouyang Kuishan seems to be practicing a mysterious martial art called the Scale Armor Technique, which requires a large amount of medicinal herbs to strengthen muscles and bones and replenish qi and blood. Moreover, I've heard that he suffers greatly while practicing it, but he still refuses to give up," the scout said breathlessly.

Lin Yu frowned: "A mysterious cultivation technique? This is not a good sign."

Just as everyone was discussing countermeasures, a change occurred within the Black Wolf Gang.

It turned out that Ouyang Kuishan, in his eagerness for quick success, had suffered a qi deviation during his cultivation and fallen into a state of madness. He attacked anyone he saw, plunging the Black Wolf Gang into chaos.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Qingli escaped from the Black Wolf Gang. Knowing that Ouyang Kuishan's madness would bring even greater disaster, she decided to find Lin Yu and the others, hoping to fight against Ouyang Kuishan together.

"Lin Yu, Ouyang Kuishan has lost control. If we don't stop him, the consequences will be unimaginable," Qingli said anxiously.

Lin Yu's gaze was firm: "We will never sit idly by."

They began to gather men, preparing for the impending fierce battle.

However, what they didn't know was that Ouyang Kuishan's strength had increased dramatically while he was in a state of demonic possession, and an unprecedented crisis was approaching.
