41: Why do you carry laxatives with you?

The gazes of Li Xue, Martial Academy and the others were somewhat strange.

It had to be said that the personality of this expert before them was a bit eccentric.

Fang Bai blinked and suddenly asked, "Senior, may I ask your name?"

The old man stroked his white beard and said with an arrogant expression, "I have been active in the world for over forty years, and people like to call me Thousand Cuts Fu!"

Thousand Cuts Fu?

Li Xue, Martial Academy's expression shifted, and she suddenly asked curiously, "Senior, are you from the martial arts Noble Families of Moon City, the Fu Family?"

The old man smiled slightly, "Exactly."

Fang Bai's expression was moved, and he said, "Senior, could it be that you are the legendary Eighth-Tier expert?"

Thousand Cuts Fu shook his head, "That is not the case; I still have some distance to go before reaching the eighth tier."

Fang Bai sighed, "Senior's strength is truly powerful. I wonder if this junior will be able to reach your height by the time I reach your age!"

The expressions of Li Xue, Martial Academy and the others became even stranger.

This Fang Bai... he sure has a way with words!

The old man laughed and said, "You are all geniuses of the Martial Academy. If you can survive in the future, your achievements will surely not be low. You are the future hope of the human race!"

He waved his hand and said, "Alright, I have urgent matters to attend to, so I will not talk to you anymore. If you still have missions, then go ahead."

Li Xue, Martial Academy and the others bowed slightly, "Thank you, Senior!"

Thousand Cuts Fu waved his hand, and then his figure vanished into thin air.

Fang Bai clicked his tongue and sighed, "Is a Seventh-Tier Expert actually this terrifying?"

The old man just now only made a slight move, and the third-tier demon beast was like a toy in his hands.

Li Xue, Martial Academy said softly, "As martial artists progress, their abilities grow stronger, gradually transcending the scope of humanity and rivaling the gods. However, reaching that level is exceptionally difficult."

Even those old monsters from the Noble Families have spent hundreds of years reaching the eighth or even ninth tier!

Only by breaking through the realm barrier can one gain more lifespan, while those stuck at the realm bottleneck can only eventually turn into a handful of dust.

A touch of determination appeared in Fang Bai's eyes.

He would definitely be able to reach the peak as well!

Possessing a golden finger, he was destined to amaze this era!

"Senior, let us go find our mission target."

Li Xue, Martial Academy nodded and then said, "Alright."

The group ventured deeper into the mountain range again, choosing a different path this time.

The original path had disturbed a large number of demon beasts, and if they returned the same way, they would definitely be intercepted.

As they ventured deeper, they encountered quite a few demon beasts, but their levels were not high, and they were all killed by the group!

As the number of demon beasts killed increased, Fang Bai's aura became stronger and stronger.

His Lightning Element Alien Energy had long reached a bottleneck, but Fang Bai resisted breaking through. All the Alien Energy returned from killing demon beasts was used to reinforce his Dark Element!

【Ding! Killed two First-tier Demon Beasts, obtained a small amount of Alien Energy!】

【Detected that the Host meets the conditions for promotion. Do you wish to break through?】

【1. Choose to break through to Lightning Element Second-tier! 2. Choose to break through to Dark Element First-tier late-stage!】

Fang Bai said decisively, "Break through Dark Element!"

Boom!

Fang Bai's aura suddenly surged!

This commotion naturally attracted the attention of Li Xue, Martial Academy and the others.

"What the heck? You just broke through like that?"

Zhang Zifeng widened his eyes, somewhat shocked.

Li Xue, Martial Academy and the others were all quite surprised.

They didn't expect Fang Bai to just break through while killing.

Yu Bing stared at Fang Bai's figure, a flash of killing intent passing through his eyes.

The talent this kid displayed made him feel threatened.

The other's strength improvement was too obvious; he could not let him continue to grow!

Fang Bai put away his Alien Energy, then looked at Li Xue, Martial Academy and the others, saying, "What are those expressions on your faces?"

Huo Qi looked at Fang Bai and said incredulously, "Fang Bai, you... just broke through like that?"

Fang Bai said innocently, "Yeah, is there a problem?"

Huo Qi had a strange expression and said, "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 laughed, "I don't know why either. As I fight, I just feel like I have endless strength. Maybe this is just talent."

The corners of everyone's mouths twitched.

Although Fang Bai was a bit of a show-off, it had to be said that he was truly capable.

Li Xue, Martial Academy calmed herself down, then said, "One more kilometer and we will be at the Thunder-Spotted Python's nest. Everyone, recover your stamina first and be ready for a fierce battle at any time."

Everyone nodded.

In front of them, the distant sky was covered by layers of dark clouds, and lightning flickered within the dark clouds.

The environment covered by the thunderclouds was exactly the living environment that the Thunder-Spotted Python loved most!

Soon, the group arrived at a humid forest.

Everyone was on high alert; they had already applied pollen to their bodies three times.

Before long, they finally arrived at the Thunder-Spotted Python's nest.

Looking from afar, one could see several huge Thunder-Spotted Pythons coiled in various places. Their bodies were very large, as thick as water buckets.

Not only that, in front of a huge cave entrance stood a "small mountain"!

Looking closely, they realized it was actually a dozen or so Thunder-Spotted Pythons coiled together in a ball.

"Are they... mating?"

The expressions of the group suddenly became strange.

Li Xue, Martial Academy whispered, "There are too many Thunder-Spotted Pythons here; we cannot act rashly."

Besides the Thunder-Spotted Python Snake King, there were seven or eight other second-tier Thunder-Spotted Pythons!

If they attacked head-on, their chances of winning would be too low.

Suddenly, a hissing sound came from that huge cave entrance, and immediately after, a snake head the size of a train locomotive slowly extended out!

The Thunder-Spotted Python Snake King!

The Snake King flicked its scarlet tongue, and suddenly its head aimed in the direction of Li Xue, Martial Academy and the others.

Everyone's expressions changed slightly, and they quickly hid.

Were they discovered?

However, the Snake King only took a glance from afar before withdrawing its gaze. Its sense of smell was very sensitive and could detect scents different from this area, but it had smelled that unusual scent in the Alien Space before; it was very common pollen.

It was probably some small demon beast that had wandered into its territory.

Li Xue, Martial Academy and the others quickly left.

"The Snake King is very alert; I'm afraid it won't be easy to kill!"

Zhang Zifeng rubbed his hair and said gloomily.

Li Xue, Martial Academy suddenly said, "I have a way, but we need to find a place to discuss this in the long term!"

Soon, the group sneaked to a cave entrance.

Fang Bai's figure vanished, and soon, he returned to the cave entrance and said, "There are two First-tier Patterned Spiders inside."

Li Xue, Martial Academy immediately made a throat-slitting gesture.

Fang Bai understood in a second, and his figure vanished again.

Soon, a commotion came from inside the cave, but it only lasted for a second before coming to an abrupt end.

Li Xue, Martial Academy knew that Fang Bai had succeeded, and she led the group to quickly flash inside.

Li Xue, Martial Academy took out a packet of special powder and then said, "This is a specially made laxative. An ordinary person only needs to touch a little bit to have diarrhea for two days and two nights."

Upon hearing this, everyone's butt tightened.

Li Xue, Martial Academy said indifferently, "The enemy's numbers are astonishing, so we can only win by wit. This laxative can significantly reduce their strength, making it easier for us to act later."

Huo Qi smiled bitterly, "Senior, why do you carry these things with you?"

Li Xue, Martial Academy said with a calm expression, "Oh, I bought it to play with when I was bored."

Everyone: "..."

I don't believe a word of it!
