"Hmm" Nine Calamities uttered.

He then asked with one of his brows furrowed "So, how do you want to go about this particular task that you have set for yourself to grow stronger?"

"Well, I will try to listen for the appearance of legacy grounds in the different towns in the city which I will journey to. And Master need not be concerned about my welfare. I am a bandit, so I can use my banditry skills to steal or robs items from others which I will use to cater for myself." Xiao Lin said while Nine Calamities laughed lightly.

"Alright. If that's what you have set your heart to do, I will not stop you. However, I will warn you that you should be careful out there. Do not foolishly get into fight that you can't win. And if you notice that the atmosphere in a particular place that you have arrived at feels odd or strange, immediately leave those places. Then finally, do not engage in things or activities that will expose or reveal you as a bandit to anyone out there." Nine Calamities said.

Once Nine Calamities said that, he said "You can go."

Xiao Lin nodded his head and then took a bow.

Immediately he did that, he straightened himself and turned around to walk away.

When he came out of the door, he didn't bother going to his room since he had nothing to pack in there. And since it was already night, he went straight to the castle's gate to leave the castle and go back to the town.

After walking for a very long time, he eventually came out of the enormous Blackheart forest where the castle was located and appeared in a particular street in the town.

Immediately he arrived there, he quickly headed for a place where he would rent an inn to stay for the night. It was going late and the Nightwatch government officers could appear soon. So, he had to quickly leave the street before they would arrive.

When he rented a small inn to stay for the night, he closed his eyes to begin to go through numerous, advanced Battle Methods in the various Spiritual Battle Arts branded to his memory so that he could comprehend them more before practicing them out there whenever he had the chance. Besides, he was doing this so that he could thoroughly mentally master them before physically practicing them so that he would be able to utilize them smoothly and proficiently whenever he was engaged in a tough battle.

After many hours of comprehension from night till morning, which he continued till evening, precisely 6pm, his eyes suddenly snapped open. Then he stood to his feet from his cross-legged position to leave the room that he rented for just two nights.

Once he came out of the inn, he headed straight for the place where he would get a carriage that would take him out of the town and towards other towns.

...

"There is no carriage going to any other town at the moment. Maybe you will have to wait till tomorrow for the carriages to return." A man that Xiao Lin met there said to him.

"Okay" Xiao Lin said in a rather unhappy tone.

So, he was still stuck here in this town. And he could guess the cause of this, which was because he was just coming out in the evening to ask about carriages going to another town when the massive, long-distance carriages would have left since morning to cover the large distances between this town and other towns and then return at night to move again in the morning.

'What do I do? Would I have to stay here again in this town till tomorrow morning? Even if I do, I won't be able to come out in the morning as the sun would be up already. Ugh!'

'I need to get a sunlight-chasing or sun-shielding ring if they truly exist. And if they don't, I can master the art of Treasure Forging where I will forge my own sun-blocking rings and other special treasures for myself. But I am still really far from that level, as only ancient and venerable, forging cultivators would be able to accomplish that. Damn it!'

'Anyways, I guess I can only keep hiding from the sun by all means till I get to that stage.'

When he was done thinking which happened in almost in an instant due to his fast thinking speed, he looked at the man in front of him and said "Thanks!"

"Don't mention." The man replied with a smile.

Xiao Lin nodded his head and then turned around to walk away from this place.

And as he did so, he started to think of other means by which he could leave this town this evening. He just needed to leave here. He didn't want to stay another day in this town, as it has become somewhat dull and boring to him.

But, not long after thinking really hard, he was able to arrive at one.

Then with a nod of his head, he set out to do it.

"Blood Wolf God, do I have any supernatural abilities at the moment that you want me to discover myself?" He asked with a burning hope in his heart.

"Well, yes. You have your vampire abilities with you. You acquired them when you became reborn as a vampire." His Animal Spirit said.

"Hmm. Then why is that you never told me till now. If I didn't ask you, I would be kept in the thick dark about it." Xiao Lin stated, blaming his Animal Spirit.

"Well, I could have told you about them, but I decided not to in the end as I didn't want you to rely too much on some of them that are available to you at the moment."

"Actually, what I wanted is that your battle skills, prowess and your proficiency in my master's art and the Demonic Blade King art which are more paramount, increases to levels where you will be able to dominate opponents that appear to be exceedingly stronger and powerful than you. But anyways, I am sorry for hiding that from you. I won't try to hide anything very important to you next time." His Blood Wolf God said.

Huuuu!

Xiao Lin inhaled deeply.

"Alright. I am not angry at you." He said.

He then continued "So, what are the abilities available to me at the moment?"
