Nie Li slept on the tree branch. He looked Chen Linjian from afar. He used some aura covering inscription pattern on his clothes to mask his soul force from enemy detection. He also felt some black gold rank aura not far from him. Maybe it was Ye Zong secret group. According to original novel, Ye Zong third brother was the leader of intelligent squad. But Nie Li forgot about his information. As long as Ye Ziyun safe and sound, that's enough.
Nie Li purpose for tailing Chen Linjian group was for Ancient Orchid Ruin correct road. Remnant of Temporal Demon Spirit Book really a great temptation for him. At least, he can train more fast with that remnant book. He just hope that that remnant page can accept him.
As for Shadow Devil Lamp, he can use it as spare demon spirit if he cannot get the black pot from auction.
He also saw Huyan Lanruo, the third beauty from Glory City. And her father was close friend of City Lord. Her pink hair was very similar to Mad Snail description on the manhua. And she was really great beauty. Alas, he had already get three tigress, add once again and he won't be able to reincarnate again.
Because of absent of Nie Li, Chen Linjian needed to face several demon beast at night and it really drained their stamina.
***
Let skip their journey.
At the periphery Ancient Orchid Ruin, Chen Linjian decided to take some rest. But without Chen Linjian realized, several black clothed man engaged in fierce battle. On side was black cloaked group, on other side was black combat suit group.
Just in few minutes, the black combat suit group managed to capture several black cloaked member. Right, the cloaked group was Dark Guild with Deacon… Nie Li forgot his name as the leader. In Nie Li memory, that deacon was Dark Guild representative in Glory City and under Sacred Family asylum.
After the investigation squad managed to capture Dark Guild member, they immediately back to Glory City and reported to City Lord. As for the children adventure, it was up to them.
Nie Li let out sigh of relief after that group eradicated. He also managed to enter the Ancient Orchid Ruin without any hassle. Of course, he didn't join them. He wanted to choose several good items for his woman.
Nie Li immediately searched for Emperor Kong Ming stele. That dammed stele was the real entrance to get Temporal Demon Spiritual Book remnant page. Suddenly a group of ape appeared around him. Cold sweat dropped from Nie Li face. Several silver-rank ape were very troublesome. He decided to take a a detour.
After three hours searching, Nie Li finally found the stele. After he read the stele, the hole on the ground really appeared. He carefully descended. Using his survival instinct, he used hole wall to decreased the falling speed.
Arriving at the bottom, all his limbs were numb. He sat down for a while and used this time to rest. He needed to recover his condition to continue his journey.

Nie Li fished out a torch and lit it up. What he found was several skeleton lying down on the floor or the wall. Without hesitation, Nie Li looted all valuable things on the corpse.
"Please forgive me. I'm just normal youth and I need to pay my family life expense. I have three wives, this wealth really meaningful to me and my family."
After giving a respect to the corpses on the floor, Nie Li continued his journey.
Creack!
"Shit!!! Trap!"
Nie Li immediately transferred his soul force to his leg and jumped backward.
Many arrow and lances launched. Nie Li shuddered witnessing the poisonous arrow and lances pierced the floor and the wall. If he didn't have his reaction, Nie Li sure that his body will be impaled on the wall by that lance.
He knew that entering this tomb really bad idea. What he wanted is life with pleasure and enjoyed it with full of heart content. But as soldier he knew that it was very impossible without proper strength. Country needed their citizen to defend territory. If the the citizen were weak, the army produced also weak.
Finally, Nie Li arrived at the branched road. Similar to original novel, Nie Li chose the correct one that led to the fake Emperor Kong Ming tomb. Why it was fake? Because no corpse inside. Just abstruse gemstone and Temporal Demon Spiritual Book.
Arriving at the stone coffin room, Nie Li looking at his insterspatial ring again to ensure his water reservoir inside. Based on his memory, after the original Nie Li absorb the white soul force, Nie Li will feel very thirst.
Everything was good. He brace his heart and stepped on the nearby stone coffin. Immediately the soul force assaulted Nie Li after Nie Li opened the coffin.
"Argh!!!"
Nie Li thought that the soul force will smoothly entered his soul realm. But his calculation was missed. Like flooded river, the soul force flooded his soul realm like crazy. Crack everywhere and it was very hurts. But Nie Li needed to persist. His dream to life happily in this world will turn in to dusk if he cannot endure this tribulation.
Using everything he had, Nie Li patched every crack appeared on his soul realm. One appeared, he immediately patched. He also occasionally lamented about his previous world easy life. If only he can call service center to repair his soul realm, he didn't need to overly exhausted his brain energy.
The current situation finally stabilized. He used his cultivation technique to process the soul force that entered his soul realm. Magically, he almost reached gold-rank after absorbed the soul force in the coffin.
Nie Li marveled his talent… or his luck. If he decided to train Heavenly God Technique, how much time he needed to enter silver-rank fighter? From the start, he didn't have much time to enjoy that self-torture. As for Sage Emperor, he didn't care slightest about him. He just hope that Sage Emperor suddenly got heart attack and died mysteriously. So, he didn't need to face him and his minion. Of course, he really wanted to meet elder phoenix for sure. Hehe.
After stabilizing his cultivation, Nie Li continued his journey again. Based his understanding, Chen Linjian group surely still searched on the civilian house because of the former adventure team already searched the city lord and noble area.
Finally, Nie Li found the treasury room. Nie Li immediately picked up every valuable things for cultivation. He also picked the Shadow Devil Lamp. At least, he didn't need to searched for god growth demon spirit. As for dragon bloodline, this realm has very little dragon bloodline demon spirit.
Looking at the mountain of gold, he disdained to pick it. He has already get many demon coin from the Alchemist Association. Gold didn't has any value, just good looking enough to bewitch weak heart little girl.

Let skip the filler.
Arriving at the Glory City, he immediately went to the Yang Xin place. Right, he wanted to do pak pak with her.
"Heh darling, your dashing smile… you seem got good harvest." Yang Xin asked. Although she didn't know where Nie Li play along, her instinct sharply detected his harvest.
"Your instinct really scary, Xin." Nie Li smiled at her and then kissed her forehead. Facing mature woman, Nie Li didn't bear psychological burden.
After that, Nie Li fished out several gemstone that has good effect on alchemy. He also asked about new elixir.
"Oh, I successfully produced it yesterday. The effect really marvelous! With that two elixir, Glory City strength will increased." Yang Xin spirit immediately lifted up when she discussed about alchemy. And young boy in front of her was the one who made her alchemist life happy.
"It's good. Are you already created several elixir for me and our family to use? At least, I need our family strength to soar silently before the calamity begin. Oh right, start to research about flammable oil. It will reduce casualties when the beast horde arrived. Of course, you need to research it silently. I will occasionally help you."
After several discussion, they finally start another level of discussion. With Nie Li experience and expertise, Nie Li without any problem transformed Yang Xin into expert in pleasing him.
Yang Xin successfully transformed into more seductive woman on the bed.
"Darling, more!"
"Ah~ it still standing~! Give me more!"
Nie Li without hesitation pumped his treasure inside her.
I don't know that TDG has anime as well.
