"Is it really a storage bag? Let's open it and see what treasures are inside."
Lin Ye immediately opened the storage bag and poured out its contents. Although the storage bag was small, it surprisingly had a storage space of three cubic meters, capable of holding quite a lot.
However, after he emptied it, aside from a few tens of thousands in cash, a bank card, a black token, and a blood-red booklet, there was nothing else.
"This booklet is..."
Lin Xi flipped through a few pages, and instinctively, all sorts of gory and unbearable images instantly appeared before their eyes—arms, organs, blood...
Then, Lin Ye quickly turned to the first page, where three large words were prominently written.
Corpse Puppet Art.
"A corpse puppet is a technique for refining human corpses. To maintain the strength of a corpse puppet, its organs and blood need to be replaced periodically... Moreover, there is no threshold for practicing this technique. As long as one is ruthless, even a 1st-Rank Martial Artist can refine a corpse puppet..."
Lin Xi's eyes revealed a hint of disgust, and even Lin Ye's expression changed upon learning about the materials needed to refine a corpse puppet.
Damn, this world is truly dark, not just the aristocratic families, but the lower levels are damn dark too! This world is utterly rotten.
Picking up the black token, it was engraved with just two words, Black Corpse, seemingly a symbol of identity for this so-called Corpse Puppet Society.
Then, Lin Ye turned his gaze to Li Dashan's two corpse puppets. Because of Li Dashan's death, they had lost all ability to move, lying completely still in the forest, rotting and stinking.
"Let's go!"
Lin Ye slowly stood up. This operation, aside from discovering a disgusting organization and obtaining a storage bag, yielded nothing else.
"Lin Ye, wait a minute, there's still a big problem."
"What is it? What problem could there possibly be now..."
"I'm hungry."
Lin Xi said this with a serious face, then looked at the bloody scene nearby, her mouth twitching involuntarily.
"This is indeed a problem, but do you have to mention it in this situation?"
Lin Ye shrugged helplessly, directly lifting the two corpse puppets and hanging them on a tree, waiting for the evening breeze to carry the scent of blood away from the corpse puppets.
"What are you doing?"
The next moment, the ground began to tremble, each step causing a slight quake. Lin Ye suddenly stood up, and upon seeing what was coming, he couldn't help but smile.
Approaching was a gigantic wild boar with dark purple fur, boasting a pair of one-meter-long tusks, looking quite terrifying. Especially with its nearly three-meter-long frame, it was enough to make anyone tremble with fear, but Lin Ye was utterly thrilled.
"Little Xi, this is probably the Demon-pattern Boar Li Dashan mentioned."
At this moment, Lin Xi gently tugged on Lin Ye's sleeve. Lin Ye instinctively looked over, only to see Lin Xi blinking her big, watery eyes, looking pitiful as she sweetly said.
"Oni-chan, I want to eat the piggy, I'm so hungry..."
Hearing this, Lin Ye instantly got goosebumps all over, "If you make that sound again, I'll punch you into the wall."
Lin Xi's expression changed instantly, "Lin Ye, I want to eat this wild boar! I'm hungry."
"Alright, got it. Freezing it is up to you, to prevent it from escaping, no... no problem, right?"
"Stop talking nonsense, just fight!"
Lin Xi quickly charged towards the wild boar using Treading the Clear Wind. The Demon-pattern Boar seemed to be foraging, clearly drawn here by the scent of blood. However, its biological sixth sense instantly detected danger.
The next moment, blood-red snowflakes floated around the Demon-pattern Boar, and the ground gradually became covered with blood-colored ice crystals. After a brief panic, the boar charged towards Lin Xi.
With a weight of over three hundred kilograms, its full-speed charge was akin to intercepting a large truck on the road.
At this moment, Lin Ye stood in front of Lin Xi, raising his arm.
Bone-Shattering Fist! Pain Sharing, activate!
Boom!!!!
With a muffled sound, Lin Ye staggered back several steps, his arm suffering another comminuted fracture. However, the wild boar was also left dizzy by Lin Ye's punch, which landed directly on its tusk, shattering it completely.
Form of Ice!

A massive blood-red ice sword suddenly appeared in Lin Xi's hand. She raised it and swung it down towards the wild boar.
"Roar—"
The skin of the Demon-pattern Boar was cut open, but it still didn't harm its body. The pain ignited a fury in its eyes, and Lin Ye stepped forward again, delivering another Bone-Shattering Fist.
With a thunderous crash!
The Demon-pattern Boar instantly fell to the ground, its other tusk shattered as well. Lin Xi, having gathered her strength, lifted the ice sword.
Yellow-rank Mid-grade, Rock-Breaking Slash!
This strike completed the kill. Seeing the Demon-pattern Boar collapse completely, Lin Xi scrambled over.
"Meat, such a big piece of meat! Lin Ye, this much meat will last us a long time. Our blood food is secured, and we won't need to buy overpriced meat from the black market anymore!"
Lin Ye slowly approached the wild boar, took out a dagger, and said, "Alright, I'll cut the meat now!"
With that, Lin Ye began to skin the wild boar, cutting the meat continuously. This three-hundred-kilogram wild boar had an exceptionally high yield of meat, especially the aberrant beast prime meat, which amounted to a full fifty kilograms.
Aberrant beast prime meat is an extremely precious part of an aberrant beast, capable of greatly replenishing a practitioner's Qi and blood.
"Here you go, little glutton."
Lin Ye cut off a piece of bloody pork and tossed it onto Lin Xi's face without a word. Lin Xi, caught off guard, was splattered with blood.
"Lin Ye, do you want to die? You just threw it over like that!"
"If you want to eat, start a fire yourself, or just eat it raw. It's not like we haven't done it before. Alright, the remaining meat isn't aberrant beast prime meat, it's just regular prime and fatty meat. We can take it back to sell, though it won't fetch much since we took the most valuable parts."
Lin Xi looked at Lin Ye, biting into the meat with dissatisfaction, chewing the raw meat fiercely several times before swallowing it. Unknowingly, she had eaten five kilograms of aberrant beast prime meat, all raw.
Lin Ye had just finished organizing the wild boar's skin and other parts when he looked back to see a large portion of the meat gone. He immediately exclaimed.
"Damn, in just the time I took, you devoured five kilograms of meat, are you a pig?"
"No, I was hungry, so I ate a bit! Also, what kind of brother talks to his own sister like that!"
"But you ate too much, stop eating. We finally don't need to sell kidneys to make money, if you keep eating, I'll really have to sell my kidney and blood."
"As if I don't sell my kidney and blood too, you're the one who enjoys it the most, and you have the nerve to say that! I'll eat, I'll eat, I nearly burned all my blood to stop those puppets for you, and you're heartbroken over a few bites of meat! Poor people's money is truly hard to spend."
As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Xi's Qi and blood surged within her, her whole body feeling hot. However, the next moment, she felt her world become much clearer, her breathing much easier. Sensing the changes in her body, she couldn't help but be surprised.
"I broke through?"
