Free Web NovelChapter 31: Chapter 31: Special Level! Level 3 Wolf Demon
「Seven days later.」
The great commotion caused by Su Bai’s breakthrough had completely subsided.
When a few Prison Guards occasionally brought it up, it was only as a topic of idle chatter after meals.
Because of it, however, many of the Prison Guards went about their duties with more confidence and worked with greater diligence.
Deep down, they also felt an added sense of security.
And after seven days of accumulation, Su Bai had saved up 400,000 Experience Points.
Unfortunately, to rely on Experience Points to break through to the Extraordinary Realm Second Level, he needed a total of 500,000!
’The higher the Realm, the more Experience Points I need to break through!’
’Breaking through to the Extraordinary Realm Second Level now requires 500,000 Experience Points. Subsequent breakthroughs will naturally demand even more!’ ƒreewebɳovel.com
’At this rate, it’ll probably be a bit difficult to break through quickly!’
Su Bai thought to himself.
If things continued like this, even if he could continuously use the Purification Tripod to take in new criminals, the efficiency of his breakthroughs would only decrease.
Later on, breaking through a single minor realm might take two or three weeks, a month, or even half a year!
That was simply too slow!
If any Martial Artists from the outside world knew what Su Bai was thinking, they would surely smack him hard in the face with a shoe insole!
Breaking through in the Extraordinary Realm was extremely difficult. Even for those overflowing with talent, breaking through a single minor realm would take months at the very least!
An average Extraordinary Realm Martial Artist would likely need several years, or even decades!
And it wasn’t unheard of for Martial Artists to remain stuck at the Extraordinary Realm First Layer, unable to break through even until death!
After all, everyone’s potential and natural talent are different.
For some Martial Artists, the limit of their potential was the Extraordinary Realm. No matter how hard they tried, they would never break through before they died!
’The number of criminals imprisoned in the Red District has clearly increased recently!’
’It seems the people from the Prison Suppression Bureau and the Demon-slaying Bureau are starting to make their move?’
Su Bai mused to himself as he walked down the corridor.
In those seven days, the Purification Tripod in Su Bai’s mind had taken in thirteen new criminals!
Nine of them weren’t very strong. Their Martial Arts Cultivation was only at the seventh or eighth layer of the Divine Power Realm, not even as good as Su Bai’s current level, so the Experience Points they provided were naturally quite average.
However, the other four criminals were quite powerful. He heard they were four brothers who called themselves the Four Kings of Flame Demon Mountain!
The name was a bit intimidating, and their cultivation wasn’t weak either, having reached the sixth or seventh layer of the Extraordinary Realm. They were all imprisoned together in Cell Block Thirteen!
The Experience Points from these four, combined, were much greater than the yield from the previous nine convicts put together!
As a result, Su Bai’s daily gain of Experience Points finally broke the 60,000-point mark!
That afternoon, Mu Feng, the bald, middle-aged man who had previously led Su Bai into the Red District, suddenly arrived to see him.
The moment he saw Su Bai, Mu Feng’s eyes lit up!
"Su Bai! You’ve done well! To think you’ve already broken through to the Qi Sea Realm Second Layer!"
He clapped Su Bai on the shoulder, his eyes full of admiration!
He had been Su Bai’s proctor. If Su Bai displayed greater talent and strength, he could also bask in some of the reflected glory and receive rewards from the higher-ups!
Besides, Lord Chen had taken a liking to Su Bai, so it was only natural for him to build a good relationship with the young man, offering smiles and generous praise.
"Lord Mu, you praise me too much. A few days ago, I was meditating in the palace when I felt something. In a daze, I seemed to have absorbed some special True Qi from the world, and that’s how I broke through!" ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
Su Bai said with an awkward smile, feigning a bit of bewilderment.
Inwardly, however, he had long had a plan.
He understood that as a subordinate, it was necessary to show some of his talent and strength to his superiors at the appropriate time.
But it was best not to reveal too much—just the right amount would do.
And he attributed his own breakthrough to the lingering effects of that certain "Martial Arts Great Power" who had broken through earlier.
Sure enough, after a moment of thought, Mu Feng smiled and said, "You kid, you’re pretty lucky to have been able to absorb some Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi from that opportunity!"
"To be honest, when that Great Power broke through, there were a few others in the prison just like you. They all absorbed the residual Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi left behind by that Martial Arts Great Power and broke through!"
Hearing this, Su Bai was stunned for a moment.
’I was just looking for an excuse for my breakthrough! It turns out that actually happened?’
"Hmm... since you’ve already broken through to the Qi Sea Realm Second Layer, I’ll take it upon myself to let you take the assessment early!"
"Assessment?"
"That’s right!" Mu Feng said as he led Su Bai toward an unknown area.
DRIP! DRIP!
As the two went deeper, the light grew dimmer and dimmer.
Black, stagnant water dripped constantly from the surrounding rock walls, the sound jarring in the silent corridor!
Finally, Mu Feng led Su Bai to a stop in front of a Red Stone Gate.
"Su Bai, ahead is that special district!"
He said to Su Bai, pointing at the stone gate before them.
Su Bai looked at the Red Stone Gate.
He saw a white number carved into the center of the gate.
It was already somewhat blurry and indistinct.
But he could faintly make out that it was the number nine!
RUMBLE!
After speaking, Mu Feng took out a key and opened the stone gate before them!
With a loud roar, dust filled the air!
An extremely foul stench immediately assaulted his nostrils!
Su Bai’s brow furrowed deeply!
It was a good thing his Martial Arts Realm was quite high. If an ordinary person smelled this, they would probably throw up last night’s dinner!
"Go on in!"
Mu Feng walked in first, and Su Bai followed closely behind.
Stepping inside, Su Bai discovered a giant black wolf baring its fangs at them!
The giant black wolf was over thirty feet long. Its four limbs were tightly bound by thick, red chains, making movement difficult!
"Su Bai, you need to spend three days in here with this Wolf Demon!"
Hearing this, Su Bai’s brow furrowed deeply!
"Don’t worry, someone will bring you food during these three days!"
Seeming to notice Su Bai’s concern, Mu Feng kindly reminded him.
"Thank you for the reminder, sir!"
On the surface, Su Bai spoke with a smile, but inwardly, he felt helpless.
’That’s not what’s making me frown. The problem is... this place fucking stinks!’
"Rest assured, I’ll be back in three days to get you out!"
After a few more words of instruction, Mu Feng locked the stone gate and left.
He had left Su Bai with this Level 3 Wolf Demon for the purpose of tempering his willpower and courage!
Joining the Prison Suppression Bureau seemed glamorous, but in reality, it meant facing countless dangers everywhere!
Demon Fiends, evil spirits, all sorts of homicidal maniacs, and more...
If he couldn’t even pass a "child’s play" test like this, then he might as well pack up and go home.
After Mu Feng left, inside the stone room, the Wolf Demon and Su Bai stared at each other, eye to eye!
It let out a savage roar!
At that moment, however, Su Bai’s mind was preoccupied with a different problem.
A very serious problem.
Where was he supposed to relieve himself?
