Fang Xiu looked into the distance.
There was a patch of earth there.
And on that earth, there were chunks of strange Crystal Stones.
Fang Xiu didn’t recognize them.
But they definitely didn’t look like ordinary Crystal Stones.
After all, he had come here in search of Rare Materials.
It seemed these were it.
’I just don’t know if this is one of the two final materials I need to increase Kajimi’s strength.’
Fang Xiu walked over.
Looking at the Crystal Stones before him, it seemed more than half of each was buried deep underground.
At that, Fang Xiu took out the Giant Sword he had just acquired.
He was going to use it to dig!
If any other Awakened saw this, they would surely bellow, "What a monstrous waste!"
Then they would rush over, snatch it away, and polish it with loving care.
But in Fang Xiu’s eyes, since he couldn’t equip it, the sword was just junk, good only for digging.
THUNK! THUNK! THUNK!
He thrust the sword into the ground again and again, then pried with force.
He dug out all the Crystal Stone chunks buried deep in the earth.
One of them was surprisingly large.
Fang Xiu pulled out the massive Crystal Stone chunk and inspected it.
Sure enough, information about the Crystal Stone slowly began to appear.
Although Fang Xiu didn’t understand how it worked,
he had looked into it before.
The final conclusion was... the rules of the universe.
The reason prompts appeared for all items
was that after the Gate Worlds appeared, the rules of the universe had changed,
leading to this phenomenon.
Whether it was weapons and Equipment, or materials and herbs, as long as one held them, [Main Information] would appear shortly after.
And all this was supposedly formed by the so-called rules of the universe.
Fang Xiu thought it was a bit far-fetched, but that seemed to be how things were.
Anyway, since almost everyone now believed this theory was correct,
Fang Xiu figured he might as well go along with it.
Soon, the information became clear.
[Sun-Breaking Jade: A Rare Refining Material. Absorbs and stores sufficient sunlight. Suitable for crafting Light Element Equipment.]
The description couldn’t have been simpler.
But it also made it clear to Fang Xiu that this thing wasn’t the material he needed.
"’Light Element?’"
The moment Fang Xiu saw the words "Light Element," he thought of that fellow, the Bright God.
He had almost used Fang Xiu’s own hand to kill Kajimi.
"Kajimi, dig up all these Sun-Breaking Jades for me!"
Fang Xiu looked at the surrounding Sun-Breaking Jades. There were over a dozen of them.
Although only a little was exposed on the surface, they were actually buried very deep.
It would be too inefficient for Fang Xiu to dig them all up by himself.
"Yes, Master!"
Kajimi quickly came over.
She took the Giant Sword from Fang Xiu’s hands and started digging.
Even working together, it still took them twenty minutes to dig out all dozen or so Sun-Breaking Jades.
"Whew, that was exhausting!"
Fang Xiu let out a breath.
’It was tiring, but at least these are Rare Materials.’
’Kajimi can’t use them now for her Promotion from Tier One, but maybe they’ll be useful for Tier Two.’
’Although... Fang Xiu felt the chances of her needing Light Element materials were slim.’
"’The next location is... to the east?’"
Fang Xiu looked at the map.
Soon, he found the second location.
"Kajimi, let’s fly there directly!"
This time, Fang Xiu didn’t choose to walk.
Because the journey... was too far.
Even flying directly would take them nearly an hour.
"This Twenty-third Gate World is massive!"
Fang Xiu exclaimed with emotion.
In his eyes, the previous Seventh Gate World had already been big enough.
But compared to this Twenty-third Gate World, it paled in comparison.
"Master, down below... such a thick deathly aura!"
Just as Fang Xiu and Kajimi arrived at the second location marked for Rare Materials,
Kajimi, still in mid-air, cried out excitedly.
"’Deathly aura?’"
Fang Xiu didn’t know if the deathly aura Kajimi was talking about was the same as the one found in the Mysterious World.
But when Fang Xiu looked down and saw the heaps of white bones below,
he suddenly began to understand.
’Just how many Demon Beasts and humans died here?’
If not for the skulls, Fang Xiu wouldn’t have been able to tell which bones belonged to Demon Beasts and which belonged to humans.
It seemed a terrifying, large-scale battle had taken place here in the past.
"Master, there’s a Demon Beast guarding that area. Its strength should be Level 30, but it seems stronger than Level 30!"
Kajimi said, pointing toward the depths of the bone pile.
"Level 30? But stronger than Level 30?"
Fang Xiu was momentarily stunned, but then it clicked. "An Elite Monster?"
"Elite Monster? What’s that?"
The term "Elite Monster" only existed in the Human World.
As a Succubus, it was normal for Kajimi not to know.
"It’s a being that’s stronger than others of the same level. Can you handle it?"
The previous Quan Ni was a Level 25 Elite Monster.
And now, the one Kajimi was talking about was a Level 30 Elite Monster.
"No problem. Master, don’t underestimate Kajimi. It’s just one Level 30 Elite Monster."
Kajimi was full of confidence.
She placed Fang Xiu down amidst the pile of bones.
Then, her figure transformed into a streak of red light,
shooting directly toward the depths of the bone pile.
"ROAR!!!"
An angry roar echoed from within the pile of bones.
BANG!
It was followed by a loud crash.
Fang Xiu was curious about what exactly was happening deep within the pile of bones.
But with his level of strength, the fight would probably be over by the time he managed to get there for a look.
’Just how strong is Kajimi? She can even fight a Level 30 Elite Monster?’
Fang Xiu was becoming more and more curious about Kajimi’s exact Level.
But there was nothing he could do. The information manifested by the world’s rules that he could see
’I’m really starting to look forward to when Kajimi becomes a Tier Two Succubus!’
Fang Xiu’s anticipation grew even stronger.
As a Tier One Succubus, Kajimi was already this powerful.
She could even handle a Level 30 Elite Monster with ease.
So, just how powerful would a Tier Two Kajimi become?
Fang Xiu didn’t know, but he was incredibly eager to find out.
"ROAR!!!"
At that moment, another angry roar came from the pile of bones not far away.
Fang Xiu was very curious about what was happening in there.
But there was no way to know; it was too far away for him to see anything.
"BANG!"
Another loud crash echoed out.
This time, Fang Xiu finally saw the pile of bones explode outwards.
Then, Fang Xiu saw a pile of white bones fly directly toward him.
Immediately after, Kajimi’s voice rang out.
"Master, this Level 30 Elite Monster is really durable!"
Kajimi shouted.
Fang Xiu froze for a second.
Then he snapped out of it and looked at the pile of white bones that had just flown over.
Sure enough, Fang Xiu could finally see it clearly!
The thing that had been sent flying wasn’t a pile of bones at all—it was clearly a Demon Beast!
