| ← Ch.0173 | Ch.0175 → |
To Ming Yueyao's pleasant surprise, when she had just exited the cultivation state, she found that she had unknowingly already broken through into the Level Nine Invincible Vajra Level.
It had not been long since she had broken through to the Level Eight Divine Level, so breaking through to the Level Nine Invincible Vajra Level was something beyond her wildest expectations.
It must be known that even in the present time, an Invincible Vajra level master would be considered one of the strongest in the world.
"I've actually become so strong!"
Ming Yueyao sensed the incredible power contained within her body, and it was at least several times stronger than when she was only a Divine Level.
Her past self might not even be able to withstand three attacks from her current self, and if she got careless, a single blow might even heavily injure or kill her past self.
"Stupid woman, getting this excited over just an Invincible Vajra Level!"
The rabbit shot a look at Ming Yueyao, bearing an expression of contempt. It had achieved the Invincible Vajra Level a few days before her.
Ming Yueyao was at a loss for words at the moment. She still remembered how emotional the rabbit had been when it had exited from its cultivation state.
After ingesting the alkahestry pill, the rabbit's strength had obviously increased by a great deal.
If the rabbit was originally considered one of the weakest among the Invincible Vajra Level kings of monsters, it would only be thanks to its unmatched speed.
Yet now, this rabbit would even dare to proclaim to the heavens that it could kill the White Ape King.
At that moment, the rabbit's mind was even filled with destructive thoughts, wanting to test out its new and improved powers.
Then, when it saw Lu Xuan in front of it, it was immediately put back in its place.
Even though it was now slightly stronger than the White Ape King, compared to this human with a freakish level of strength, it had no hopes of victory.
It had seen firsthand how Lu Xuan had trounced the White Ape King. That was truly a thrashing, and the White Ape King had basically no chance to even put up a resistance.
Moreover, it clearly felt that in this short span of time, Lu Xuan had grown even stronger yet again. He was truly a freak.
"Young Master, this alkahestry pill is really too awesome! It's actually raised my strength by a huge amount, and I feel like I can even kill the White Ape King now!"
The rabbit waved its two stubby paws around in a menacing manner.
"Give me a few more pills, Young Master. When my power increases further, I'll defeat all your enemies on your behalf. Those who submit will prosper, while those who resist shall perish!"
Watching how the rabbit was fawning over Lu Xuan, a thought sprang unbidden to Ming Yueyao's mind. It was just using its powerful connections in Lu Xuan to intimidate others.
The rabbit obviously wanted to exploit Lu Xuan's strength for its own purposes.
Lu Xuan laughed and replied, "The medicinal ingredients in this alkahestry pill are not your run of the mill stuff. If not for the fact that it's a half-finished product, at your level, ingesting it would probably cause your body to immediately explode and kill you!"
"It's that strong?" Ming Yueyao asked in alarm.
She had no idea that the alkahestry pill Lu Xuan casually passed to her was that potent. Even though it was only a half-finished product, she felt like it was already very amazing.
After all, it allowed her to catch up with so many other top tier masters in the world in such a short time.
"My Young Master is blessed with great fortune and longevity matching the heavens. My adulation for you is like a surging river, flowing out in an unending stream!" the rabbit hurriedly said, trying to flatter Lu Xuan. It had picked up these words from a human television drama, and it seemed useful for sucking up to someone.
"Bootlicker!" The word popped up into Ming Yueyao's head. The most absurd part of this was that it was a rabbit trying to lick Lu Xuan's boots. Was there anything more ridiculous than this?
She felt like she had finally seen it all, actually seeing a rabbit sucking up to someone in her lifetime.
Lu Xuan simply laughed it off. He could tell that this alkahestry pill was incomplete, as the process was stopped halfway. To be precise, it was missing a certain medicinal ingredient, which was why it was not finished.
If his guess was correct, the owner of this cave abode probably went out looking for this ingredient. Then, for something must have happened to them when they left, as they had not returned from their search.
Lu Xuan's hypothesis was that it was likely they had encountered the incident of Liu Bowen severing the dragon's veins, and had not returned after that.
Furthermore, when Spirit Qi disappeared from the world, this cave abode disappeared completely from the public eye, as there was no way to maintain the running of the sword formation.
It was only with the recent revival of Spirit Qi in the world that the sword formation resumed its operations, and had drawn the attention of the kings of monsters in Shennongjia.
"This kind of alkahestry pill would just be wasted on you two if you took more!"
Lu Xuan explained, "Your strength is still too shallow, and your understanding of cultivation is like a child's. An overreliance on alkahestry pills to raise your strength would conversely be harmful for your future cultivation!"
The lady and the rabbit did not object, as they were certain that Lu Xuan was telling the truth. The difference between the strength of people who broke through to the next level after mastering their current level and the people who relied on alkahestry pills to level up was stark.
It was different for Lu Xuan, however, as he could eat alkahestry pills like candy, and it would not hinder him at all.
"I wonder what's happening outside right now?" Ming Yueyao was slightly concerned about the current affairs outside.
She had spent the whole day focused on cultivation, and had no time to pay attention to the outside.
"Outside? It's chaos out there right now!"
Lu Xuan laughed lightly. While he was waiting for the two of them, he had started browsing the news in his free time.
Accessing the news from one's handphone was simply too convenient now.
A day ago, Lu Xuan had slain the White Ape King during a live broadcast watched by the rest of the world. The event could be called the stone that stirred a thousand waves.
It was especially the ease at which Lu Xuan killed the White Ape King, which caused him to become the idol of countless youths.
Who knew how many people were clamoring about wanting to ask Lu Xuan to be their master. The only problem was that they did not know who Lu Xuan was, and the government was also keeping mum about it.
Even the American government from overseas was requesting that the Huaxia government publicly announce Lu Xuan's identity. They argued that such a strong master should be shared by all mankind and not only remain under the jurisdiction of Huaxia.
It had even triggered a reunion of some small fry in America.
Now that all the countries across the world were still reeling from these attacks from kings of monsters, and someone had finally stepped forward to make the first move, they naturally would not let the chance slip by.
Still, that was only the beginning. Early this morning, another king of monsters had emerged. It was a monster cultivated from a cougar, and it announced its desire to avenge the White Ape King.
The moment it came out into the world, it had caused a death toll in the thousands and turned a small town into a no man's land.
Faced with such a situation yet again, people were in a panic, and during this time, people were all asking for Lu Xuan to come out and deal with the monster threat.
Then, someone that nobody had expected to appear came. The Chief of the Agency of Special Affairs, the Dragon, was actually the first on the scene and stopped the Cougar King.
After another live broadcast and a hard-fought battle, the Dragon had slain the Cougar King on the spot.
It was the second time humanity's champion had beaten a king of monsters, and the internet was in an uproar.
