488: Chapter 488 Young friend, you can't seize such an opportunity.

"Ugh... where on earth did this send me?"

Fang Bai only felt a flash of white light, and then he was standing on an unknown land.

He looked around and found himself on a plain, and with him were many members of other races.

"Is this the Xuanxing Continent?"

Fang Bai sensed the surroundings; the concentration of spiritual energy here was decent. Although not as rich as in Dark Night City, it certainly wasn't a barren land.

"Hahaha! Holy crap! I've found a treasure! It's a source crystal!"

Suddenly, an excited voice rang out not far away.

Many gazes shifted toward the source and saw a pig demon. It stood three meters tall and was very robust; currently, it held a purple crystal the size of a human fist in its hand.

That crystal contained a dense amount of energy.

A source crystal!

A byproduct of a source vein!

Many eyes instantly grew burning hot, staring greedily at the pig demon.

Finding a source crystal right after arriving—didn't this mean the resources here were everywhere?

In an instant, many powerful experts scattered and began their search.

However, before long, many faces were filled with disappointment.

Meanwhile, some foreign races had already set their sights on the pig demon's source crystal.

"Jie jie jie! Junior, you cannot handle such an opportunity!"

Swoosh!

A powerful expert from the Mantis Race spoke with an evil laugh. In the next second, its figure turned into an afterimage, instantly cutting the pig demon in half at the waist!

The pig demon never expected that it would be eliminated right after landing.

It ended before it even began?

The Mantis Race expert looked excitedly at the seized source crystal in its hand: "Jie jie jie! A pig is a pig—still stupid. To have such an opportunity and still be so high-profile!"

At this time, many experts gathered around, surrounding the mantis with unfriendly expressions.

The latter gave a cold laugh, and a powerful aura erupted: "Anyone who wants to die, step forward!"

This Mantis Race expert's strength was not weak, being at least at the Eighth-Rank Extreme Realm.

In a second-level civilization, not all creatures reached the Ninth Rank or above; weak creatures still existed.

Feeling the mantis's impressive aura, many foreign races retreated one after another, not daring to get involved further.

At the same time, a Minotaur walked out, staring at the Mantis Race expert: "I'll give you three breaths of time to hand over the source crystal! Otherwise, die!"

A burst of killing intent locked onto the mantis expert.

Quasi-Ninth Order!

It was even stronger than the mantis!

The mantis's expression turned ugly. It hadn't expected there to be an even stronger existence. After hesitating repeatedly, it decided to give up the source crystal.

"Here it is."

The source crystal fell into the Minotaur's hands.

The latter sneered: "One who recognizes the circumstances is a wise man!"

The mantis snorted coldly: "I'll remember this debt!"

As it spoke, it turned to leave, but in the next second, a powerful force attacked from behind!

The mantis was prepared and turned around, slashing down with its scythe!

Boom!

In the next second, the mantis was sent flying!

It spat out blood, its face extremely pale: "Why are you still attacking?"

The Minotaur laughed sinisterly: "When did I ever say I would let you go? Moreover... you dare to threaten me?"

The mantis was furious: "Damn it! Then come!"

The battle began, but the gap in realms meant the outcome was already decided. In less than fifteen minutes, the mantis was killed!

The Minotaur also had injuries, but its eyes were bloodshot with killing intent as its gaze swept over the others.

The onlookers' expressions changed drastically.

There were still a dozen or so left in the area; others had already sensed something was wrong and fled early. Those remaining were hoping for a chance to benefit from the chaos.

"Jie jie jie! You all must die!"

The Minotaur directly attacked everyone. Their strength was inferior to the Minotaur's, and they were all killed before long!

This was the struggle for opportunities!

A matter of life and death!

The Minotaur panted heavily, its bloodshot eyes coldly scanning the corpses. Suddenly, it saw something that made its expression freeze.

Not far away stood a figure, calmly watching the scene.

The Minotaur immediately became alert and gritted its teeth: "I didn't expect there to be a fish that escaped the net! What? Do you want my source crystal too?"

Fang Bai smiled slightly: "I didn't attack you. Do you intend to silence me as well?"

Hearing the other party's tone, the Minotaur suddenly felt confident. Truly powerful people wouldn't waste words with you; the fact was, the opponent was wary of it!

In an instant, the Minotaur's aura surged: "Jie jie jie! No matter who you are, since you appeared here, I can only say you're unlucky!"

Thump!

The ground beneath its feet cracked instantly. In the next second, the Minotaur turned into a cannonball and charged at Fang Bai!

Fang Bai stood where he was without moving. Just as the Minotaur was about to collide with him, its body suddenly burst into pieces!

Shredded meat scattered all over the ground; it was as dead as could be!

Fang Bai extracted a purple crystal from the pile of shredded meat.

He looked at it in his hand, somewhat surprised: "Is this a source crystal? The energy is indeed impressive."

This source crystal contained abundant energy; even for a Tenth Rank expert, it would be useful. As long as the quantity was sufficient, it would be more than enough to improve one's strength.

No wonder these low-rank creatures wanted it so badly.

There was no telling how many source crystals were born within a source vein.

Thinking of this, Fang Bai waved his hand, and several figures suddenly appeared in the area.

It was Yi Mu, Su Su, and the others.

Before entering the wormhole, Fang Bai had already placed Yi Mu into his moon god ring. After all, he didn't know if the teleportation would be random. With Yi Mu's strength, if she encountered danger, she would likely be finished.

Su Su and the others had already seen a massive increase in strength.

This was also thanks to Fang Bai; they had managed to get a share of the benefits through him.

Now, Su Su had successfully stepped into the Ninth Rank!

Not just her, but A Xiu as well. Both young geniuses had broken through to the Ninth Rank!

Su Su, a Dual-Element Ninth Rank!

A Xiu of the Space Element!

Their combat power was not as simple as their surface realm suggested.

Meanwhile, Qi Tian and Little Ape were at the Eighth-Rank Extreme Realm, not far from the Ninth Rank.

Compared to Su Su, their talent was slightly inferior. Qi Tian was also Dual-Element, but he hadn't been able to step into the Ninth Rank level yet.

Fang Bai said to them, "Your realms have broken through. Next is to stabilize yourselves. Only through actual combat can you become more stable. Therefore, you will also participate in this struggle for the source vein."

Qi Tian said gloomily, "Actually, I'm already past the age for fighting and killing. I just want to lie flat."

Fang Bai said, "Whether it's source crystals or source qi, they can significantly increase your cultivation. Moreover, such things are like they cost nothing here. If your luck is good, you'll be able to step into the Ninth Rank!"

Hearing this, Qi Tian's face instantly changed: "Fight! Let's fight to our heart's content!"

Su Su looked at Fang Bai and asked, "Are you not coming with us?"

Fang Bai grinned: "I still have things to do. You ultimately have to rely on yourselves to become stronger. But don't worry, I've planted a mark on you. Once you are in danger, I will arrive immediately!"

Su Su nodded slightly: "Okay."

"In that case, let's part ways here."
