After Fang Bai successfully broke through, he found everyone staring at him as if he were a monster.
He blinked innocently and said softly, "I may be a little charming, but don't look at me like that, okay? It's kind of embarrassing."
Everyone rolled their eyes in unison.
Li Xue stopped paying attention to Fang Bai, that freak, and looked at Captain Xing instead. "Captain Xing, what do we do now?"
Captain Xing hesitated for a moment before saying, "Since your classmate has been rescued, I need to head back in case those demon beasts take advantage of the chaos to attack the base."
"As for you, my suggestion is to leave the dimensional space!"
"This massive explosion will attract the great demons here!"
With that, he left with his men.
Li Xue hesitated for a moment, then looked at the others. "What do you all think?"
Huo Qi hesitated before saying, "We've already completed our mission..."
Zhang Zifeng, however, said, "I think we could take a gamble. What if we can pick up some scraps?"
Li Xue said gravely, "There may be Fourth Order, or even Fifth Order demon beasts..."
Zhang Zifeng scratched his head, growing somewhat timid as well. "Well, I was just making a suggestion."
Fang Bai spoke up then. "Senior, wealth is sought amid danger—the greater the storm, the pricier the fish!"
From the system's feedback, he had realized that even the Specialized Nuclear Bomb could only kill First and Second Order demon beasts. It could not kill demon beasts above Third Order.
But he had a feeling that even if they had not been killed, they had definitely been injured!
Before the other demon beasts could react, he would turn around and strike back!
If he could kill a few more Third Order demon beasts, he might break through again!
What decent person cultivated like they were riding a rocket?
Li Xue was somewhat hesitant too. Though she feared the risks, she had to admit that she wanted to pick up some scraps as well.
Fang Bai urged her, "Senior, if you keep hesitating, it'll be too late."
Li Xue gritted her teeth and said, "Fang Bai, you're good at hiding. You'll go to the scene, and we'll cover for you. We split the gains thirty-seventy—we get thirty, you get seventy. Does that work for you?"
After all, Fang Bai was the one taking the risk, so he deserved the lion's share.
Fang Bai did not hesitate and nodded. "You got it!"
After reaching an agreement, the group swiftly headed toward the explosion.
Yet they all had a strange feeling, as though they had forgotten something.
Yu Bing: "..."
At the center of the explosion.
Following the detonation of the nuclear bomb, a massive crater a hundred meters in diameter appeared on the field.
The surrounding area was utterly desolate.
Several enormous demon beasts were embedded in the soil. Their bodies twitched, but they had been maimed—either missing arms and legs or blasted into scattered chunks.
These were relatively tough Second Order demon beasts, still hanging onto a single breath.
As for the Third Order demon beasts, those farther away were doing relatively well. But several at the center of the explosion had been injured as well, and their auras were weak.
The Fourth Order demon beasts had also been injured, but not badly enough to count as serious wounds.
Still, every demon beast was dazed at the moment, even questioning its beastly existence.
Just now, they had only seen a tiny thing that looked like a dick explode. Who would have thought it possessed such terrifying power?
They had all thought they were about to see their great-grandmothers.
Oh, their weaker kin had already gone to reunite with their great-grandmothers.
"Roar!"
After snapping out of it, the demon beasts roared in fury.
This was far too humiliating!
They had actually been reduced to such a miserable state by a mere Second Order ant!
After roaring, they transformed their anger into appetite and began devouring the injured demon beasts around them!
Even among their own kind, they devoured one another. The weak only deserved to become food for the strong.
Several Fourth Order demon beasts even fought over the food, breaking into a brawl.
For a time, after the explosion came a no-holds-barred free-for-all.
Meanwhile, Fang Bai and the others had crept over from outside the blast radius.
When they saw the massive crater, they were completely stunned!
Just how powerful had that been?
Fang Bai rubbed his nose, somewhat surprised himself.
Still, he found it pretty exhilarating. One had already been this terrifying—how spectacular would it be if he set off a dozen or more in the future?
"Could there... be radiation?"
Zhang Zifeng swallowed.
Fang Bai answered instinctively, "No."
The others silently looked at him.
Fang Bai coughed lightly. "Our martial artists' physiques can already withstand nuclear radiation with our flesh alone. We'll definitely be fine."
Mm, once martial artists reached a certain level, even nuclear bombs could not kill them.
Li Xue and the others looked at him strangely.
They suspected that this explosion was definitely related to Fang Bai, but they had no proof.
Fang Bai stared into the blast crater, feeling a headache coming on.
He had not expected so many demon beasts to still be alive. This was going to be troublesome.
But while they were fighting among themselves, Fang Bai swiftly rushed into the crater.
There was basically no shadow left inside the huge crater, but fortunately, there were many enormous rocks. Fang Bai used the darkness to hide within the shadows beneath them.
With incredibly fast hands, he finished off the demon beasts that had not yet died, then stored them in his Space Ring.
After finishing one, he dashed toward another.
To the demon beasts, these corpses were food. But to him, they were all points!
Fang Bai even collected the corpses of two Third Order demon beasts!
This wave alone had made the trip worthwhile.
But some demon beasts still noticed that something was wrong. One Fourth Order demon beast stopped, its sharp eyes sweeping across the area in confusion.
What was going on? Why did it feel like something was off?
Even Li Xue and the others in the distance broke out in a cold sweat for him.
A Fourth Order demon beast could casually kill any one of them so thoroughly that they would not even be able to die again!
Yet no matter how vigilant the Fourth Order demon beast was, it never imagined that Fang Bai was currently hiding behind a demon beast's corpse.
Once that gaze moved away, Fang Bai let out a sigh of relief.
But at that moment, a terrifying beast roar suddenly rang out from afar.
Whether human or demon beast, everyone's expression changed!
Especially those demon beasts—their bodies began trembling, their faces filled with fear.
Fang Bai's heart practically exploded with a what the fuck!
Could he really be this unlucky?
Fifth Order? Or Sixth Order?
Outside the massive crater, Li Xue and the others were stricken with horror. In only a second, without hesitation, they buried their bodies in the dirt!
They did not even dare breathe loudly, their entire bodies trembling!
That was because the terrifying aura was drawing closer and closer!
What wealth sought amid danger? They had come here just fine, but now they fucking couldn't go back!
Within a few breaths, a colossal creature suddenly appeared on the field!
Below, Fang Bai's expression froze solid.
What the fuck?
You fucking came at just the right time!
