I'm already invincible, and you're telling me I just logged in?

"Be very careful once you enter the City of Sin."

The woman looked at the stubbornness in the girl's eyes, her face full of helplessness.

"Yes, Aunt."

The young woman gave a graceful bow, climbed the elevator on the city wall, and descended into the city of sin along with a dozen or so others.

Xu Yan stood in the corner and opened the girl's control panel.

It wasn't because she looked familiar, but because the girl's weapon was truly rare.

It turned out to be a pipa (a traditional Chinese stringed instrument).

The world is indeed full of wonders.

【Ye Yuntang】

【LV: 16】

[Qi and Blood Value: 520/520]

[Internal Force Value: 200/200]

External Attack: 60

[Internal Attack: 140]

External Defense: 60

Internal Defense: 95

"???"

Is it possible for someone to have such exaggerated stats at only level 10-12?

The martial arts they practice are probably not ordinary.

Xu Yan sighed softly to himself.

Indeed, some are born in Rome, while others are born to be beasts of burden.

With such high internal strength, he must be using the pipa (a Chinese lute) to kill enemies.

Xu Yan withdrew his gaze.

The elevator has landed.

Some people walked in twos and threes among the crowd, but no one came looking for Xu Yan.

Criminals in Sin City band together to survive, and those taking the exam can also travel in groups.

Most of these people were in their early twenties, and the reason they didn't choose to accompany Xu Yan was not because he was dressed simply.

It was because he had no weapon.

In this world, those who practice martial arts are considered the lowest of the low. If they are injured while fighting unarmed, their fighting ability will be reduced by more than half.

However, Xu Yan didn't care and entered the instance directly with a thought.

Now that he's in harmony with nature and has no negative status effects, he's not afraid of level 20 dungeons.

The next moment, time stood still, and the figures around them disappeared one by one.

Xu Yan stood once again in a secluded space.

He glanced at the red dot on the map and started walking towards the city of sin.

After entering Sin City, Xu Yan discovered that these red dots did not appear on the streets, but were all hiding in the houses.

As Xu Yan entered a house marked with three red dots, a figure suddenly fell from above.

[Criminal, LV: 10]

[Health Volume: 200/200]

Attack: 30

[Defense: 10]

Xu Yan was startled after being attacked.

There's a sixth brother!

This guy actually hid on the roof and ambushed him!

Fortunately, Xu Yan was wearing the soft armor given to him by Chen Xuan, so he was not injured.

He finished him off with two punches.

[ID: Xu Yan]

[Title: Unparalleled in the World]

[Level: LV10 (0/100)]

[Qi and Blood Value: 290/290 (+56)]

[Internal Force Value: 95/95 (+19)]

External Attack: 55 (+11)

[Internal Attack: 0]

External Defense: 5 (+27)

[Internal Defense: 5 (+7)]

External Martial Arts: Seven Injury Fist (Minor Mastery 164/500)

[After each level increase: External attack +5, Health +10, Internal energy +5]

After killing the criminal, I gained 20 experience points and leveled up to level 10.

Xu Yan glanced down at the panel and couldn't help but sigh.

Sure enough, leveling up by grinding is still the fastest!

Having learned his lesson the hard way, Xu Yan was no longer careless.

After carefully searching several empty rooms, he indeed stumbled upon two criminals hiding in the shadows, preparing to launch a sneak attack.

Gain another 40 experience points.

After killing several more criminals who tried to surround him, he finally understood why the Fist Cultivator had been strengthened.

When faced with three people attacking him at once, he can only strike one punch at a time, without any area-of-effect damage, making it extremely inefficient.

As expected of the Nine Gates Prison, developers, please buff it up again.

After dealing with the peripheral criminals, Xu Yan's level also increased to level twelve in one go.

My external attack power has been increased to 65, and now I can clear out an outer criminal with one punch.

Unfortunately, the Sin City dungeon seems to be designed for speedruns, and there aren't hundreds or thousands of criminals for him to grind experience on.

After clearing the outer area, Xu Yan could only head towards the red dot in the middle area.

The city center appears much more prosperous than the outer areas.

The NPCs here are mostly gathered in twos and threes.

They are mostly elite monsters.

[Repeat Offender, LV: 15]

[Health Volume: 300/300]

Attack: 75

[Defense: 20]

Although the attack was enough to injure Xu Yan, these NPCs were mindless, mechanical, and easy to dodge.

Despite the overwhelming numerical advantage, Xu Yan could only take down one enemy with two punches.

There weren't many elite monsters, only six in total.

Xu Yan gained 300 experience points.

[ID: Xu Yan]

Xu Yan opened the panel and checked the harvest.

He advanced to the third level of the Cave Meridian Realm in one go, and his strength reached a new level.

However, the criminals didn't seem to have anything on them, and no items were found during the trip.

Xu Yan turned off the panel and walked towards the last red dot in the central area.

The central area should be the original city lord's mansion.

The door was wide open, and Xu Yan walked straight in.

As soon as I stepped over the threshold, I paused.

A criminal is lying on the ground, gnawing on something.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a human corpse.

Has Sin City fallen so low that people resort to cannibalism?

The figure noticed the intruder and immediately turned around, revealing a face stained with blood.

There was still food stuck to his lips that he hadn't had time to swallow.

[Jiang Chengying, a follower of the Blood Lotus Cult]

[Qi and Blood Value: 1500/1500]

External Attack: 100

[Internal Attack: 80]

External Defense: 50

Internal Defense: 50

The panel properties are fairly even.

The BOSS lay prone on the ground, its fighting style much more cautious than expected, probing with every move.

They don't look like real NPCs at all.

Xu Yan lost patience and directly activated the Oneness of Heaven and Man, starting a speedrun.

Just when the BOSS's health was about to run out, an unexpected scene unfolded.

He suddenly knelt on the ground, his voice trembling and choked with sobs: "My lord, spare me! My lord! I was forced!"

"I don't want this! I really don't want this!"

The BOSS's expression didn't look like something a pre-programmed program would have; it looked incredibly realistic.

Xu Yan stepped back a few paces and quietly watched the BOSS perform.

A moment later, his brow twitched slightly.

"So there's a second phase."

......

In reality.

On the city wall, Qin Feng watched the figure in blue enter the city. His pupils contracted sharply, and his face showed panic: "Mother, why did my cousin go in!"

The woman did not reply, but simply gazed at the figure.

Qin Feng finally couldn't hold back any longer. He turned around and shouted sternly at the people behind him, "What are you standing there for? Go down and bring Miss Biao back!"

Ye Shurong sighed softly.

"This is Yuntang's obsession. If you interfere, she may never forgive you in this lifetime."

Qin Feng didn't speak again, but the panic in his eyes grew stronger.

Normally it would be fine, but this time he secretly tampered with the jade pendant.

But he dared not tell his mother about it.

"No one can...no one can know I did it!"
