Li Xue and the others looked at him strangely.
To be honest, the personality of this big shot before them was a bit peculiar.
Fang Bai blinked and suddenly asked, "Senior, may I ask your name?"
The old man stroked his white beard, his face full of pride, and said, "I've been active for over forty years, and people like to call me Fu Qiandao!"
Fu Qiandao?
Li Xue's expression shifted, and she suddenly asked curiously, "Senior, are you from the Fu Family, a Martial Arts Family from Moon City?"
The old man smiled slightly, "Indeed."
Fang Bai's expression moved, and he said, "Senior, are you perhaps the legendary Eighth Order expert?"
Fu Qiandao shook his head, "Not quite, I'm still a bit short of Eighth Order."
Fang Bai sighed, "Senior's strength is truly formidable. I wonder if I, at your age, will be able to reach your height!"
Li Xue and the others' expressions became even stranger.
This Fang Bai... he sure knows how to talk!
The old man laughed heartily and said, "You are all geniuses from the Martial Academy. If you can survive, your future achievements will surely be great. You are the future hope of humanity!"
He waved his hand and said, "Alright, I have urgent matters to attend to, so I won't chat with you any longer. If you still have missions, go ahead."
Li Xue and the others bowed slightly, "Thank you, Senior!"
Fu Qiandao waved his hand, and then his figure disappeared into thin air.
Fang Bai clicked his tongue in admiration, "Is a Seventh Order expert truly this terrifying?"
That old man just made a slight move, and Third Order demonic beasts were like toys in his hands.
Li Xue said gently, "The further a Martial Artist progresses, the stronger their abilities become. They gradually transcend the human realm and become comparable to gods. However, reaching that level is exceptionally difficult."
Even the old monsters of those powerful families spent hundreds of years to reach Eighth or even Ninth Order!
Only by breaking through the realm barrier could one gain more lifespan. Those stuck at the bottleneck could only turn to dust.
Fang Bai's eyes gained a bit more determination.
He would definitely reach the peak!
With his Golden Finger, he was destined to amaze this era!
"Senior Sister, let's go find our mission target."
Li Xue nodded and then said, "Okay."
The group ventured deeper into the mountain range again, this time choosing a different path.
The original path had alerted a large number of demonic beasts. If they returned the same way, they would definitely be intercepted.
As they ventured deeper, they encountered quite a few demonic beasts, but their levels were not high, and they were all killed by the group!
As the number of demonic beasts they killed increased, Fang Bai's aura grew stronger.
His Lightning Element Exotic Energy had long reached a bottleneck, but Fang Bai resisted breaking through. The Exotic Energy he gained from killing demonic beasts was all used to empower his Dark Element!
[Ding! Killed 2 First Order Demonic Beasts, gained a small amount of Exotic Energy!]
[Detected that the host meets the promotion conditions. Do you wish to break through?]
[1. Choose to break through to Second Order Lightning Element! 2. Choose to break through to First Order Late Stage Dark Element!]
Fang Bai decisively said, "Breakthrough Dark Element!"
Fang Bai's aura suddenly surged!
This commotion naturally attracted Li Xue and the others' attention.
"What the heck? He broke through just like that?"
Zhang Zifeng's eyes widened in shock.
Li Xue and the others were all somewhat surprised.
They didn't expect Fang Bai to break through just by fighting.
Yu Bing stared at Fang Bai's figure, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes.
The talent Fang Bai displayed made him feel threatened.
The other party's strength was improving too rapidly; he couldn't be allowed to grow any further!
Fang Bai retracted his Exotic Energy and then looked at Li Xue and the others, "What are you guys looking at?"
Huo Qubing looked at Fang Bai, incredulously saying, "Fang Bai, you... you just broke through like that?"
Fang Bai said innocently, "Yeah, is there a problem?"
Huo Qubing's expression turned strange, "There is a bit of a problem. Why do you get stronger the more you fight?"
Why is it that the more we fight, the more energy we consume?
Fang Bai chuckled, "I don't know why either. As I fight, I just feel like I have endless strength. Maybe it's just talent."
The crowd's mouths twitched.
While Fang Bai was a bit of a show-off, they had to admit he was the real deal.
Li Xue calmed herself and said, "The Thunder Spotted Python's nest is about a kilometer from here. Everyone, recover your stamina and be ready for a tough fight."
Everyone nodded.
Ahead of them, the distant sky was shrouded in layers of dark clouds, with lightning flashing within.
This environment, covered by thunderclouds, was precisely the Thunder Spotted Python's preferred habitat!
Soon, the group arrived at a damp forest.
Everyone was on high alert, having already smeared themselves with pollen three times.
Before long, they finally reached the Thunder Spotted Python's nest.
From a distance, they could see several enormous Thunder Spotted Pythons coiled up in various spots. They were huge, as thick as buckets.
Moreover, in front of a massive cave entrance, stood a "small mountain"!
Upon closer inspection, they realized it was actually a dozen Thunder Spotted Pythons intertwined into a single mass.
"Are they... mating?"
The expressions of the group turned peculiar.
Li Xue whispered, "There are too many Thunder Spotted Pythons here. We can't attack rashly."
Excluding the Thunder Spotted Python King, there were seven or eight other Second Order Thunder Spotted Pythons!
If they attacked head-on, their chances of winning would be too low.
Suddenly, a hiss came from the huge cave entrance, followed by a train-car-sized snake head slowly emerging!
The Thunder Spotted Python King!
The King flicked its scarlet tongue and suddenly aimed its head in Li Xue and their direction.
Everyone's faces changed slightly, and they quickly hid.
Had they been discovered?
However, the King merely glanced in their direction from afar before retracting its gaze. Its sense of smell was incredibly keen, able to detect scents different from the area. But that unusual scent was something it had encountered before in the异空间, a common type of pollen.
It probably assumed some small demon had wandered into its territory.
Li Xue and the others quickly retreated.
"The Snake King is very alert. It might not be easy to kill!"
Zhang Zifeng rubbed his hair and said dejectedly.
Li Xue suddenly said, "I have a plan, but we need to find a place to discuss it further!"
Soon, the group found a cave entrance.
Fang Bai's figure disappeared and quickly reappeared at the cave entrance. "There are two First Order Striped Spiders inside."
Li Xue immediately made a throat-slitting gesture.
Fang Bai understood instantly and disappeared again.
Soon, a commotion came from inside the cave, but it lasted only a second before abruptly stopping.
Li Xue knew Fang Bai had succeeded and quickly led the others inside.
Li Xue took out a bag of specially made powder and said, "This is a special laxative. Even a normal person would be on the toilet for two days and two nights if they touched a bit."
Hearing this, everyone's anuses tightened.
Li Xue said calmly, "The enemy is numerous. We can only outsmart them. This laxative will greatly reduce their strength, making it easier to act when the time comes."
Huo Qi forced a smile and asked, "Senior Sister, why do you carry these things with you?"
Li Xue replied calmly, "Oh, I bought them for fun when I was bored."
The crowd: "..."
I'd believe that if I were a fool!
