Chapter 27

Although Li Qiu was lamenting his bitter situation at the moment, he was not panicked. He quickly assessed the current state of affairs: he had only a few Fire Talismans, a Vajra Talisman, a Water Dragon Talisman, and a ghost who had fainted on the ground—though whether she would be of any use remained to be seen. He was trapped in some wretched formation called the "Myriad Ghost Skeleton Formation," surrounded by a swarm of skeletons covered in bloody flesh and tendons. Outside the formation, an Evil Daoist at Qi Condensation Level 3 was spying on him, looking for an opportunity to do him in. He was out in the open, while the enemy was hidden in the shadows. What should a hunter do when targeted by prey? After all, Li Qiu was a hunter's son. Although he had never personally experienced any major battles, he knew very well that to survive, one must never run away; instead, one must kill the prey. He had to remain calm and create an opportunity to make the hidden enemy lower their guard and reveal a flaw, or trick them into believing he was completely controlled and unable to escape, thereby making them careless. As long as the enemy let down their guard, there would be a vulnerability to exploit.
