Mo Fan seriously wondered how Zhao Manyan was able to so easily find a place with pretty ladies in every city he visited. The n were not interested in shopping. They preferred to enjoy so high-quality services!
“Mu Bai, you’re not coming?” Mo Fan was surprised.
“Mm, I’m not feeling well.” Mu Bai shook his head.
“That’s perfect, the place we’re going to will make you feel great. Let’s go, how could you miss out on it? I’ll stake you!” Zhao Manyan said.
“I’ll pass,” Mu Bai directly rejected him. He headed for the hotel with a troubled face.
“Are you going to the auction later, then?” Zhao Manyan asked him.
“I’ll be there.”

The two did not force Mu Bai any further, and went to a reflexology center. The two were not hoodlums. They did not bother visiting so questionable places; this was a clean, reputable place. They had a nice bath and went to the rooftop garden to enjoy a sunbath, with drinks and beautiful ladies...
“Are you sure this place doesn’t provide us with those kinds of services?” Mo Fan asked once again, just to make sure.
“Don’t worry, it’s a proper recreational center. The most you can do is have so drinks and eat so grilled cuttlefish, unless you’re good enough to hook up with them on your own. Otherwise, these ladies will never be intimate with you!” Zhao Manyan confird.
“How did you learn about a place like this?” Mo Fan was confused.
“It’s a famous club in my circle. Think about it; the wealthy have no trouble letting won fall for them, but if it’s a place with strict obligations like this, rich people find it more challenging. They believe they can hook up with the won here, but little do they know, the won here have already seen too many rich people. Even a charming person with great inner qualities like has yet to hook up with any of them!” Zhao Manyan admitted.
“So you’re only here to satisfy the needs of your lower body,” Mo Fan confird.
“You can’t bla if I manage to hook up with them with my own skills! I’m trying not to visit the hookers, but if I can’t even have one-night-stands or hook up with girls, what else can I do in my life?” Zhao Manyan said righteously.
Mo Fan was left speechless, but he did know that this guy had been indulging in his desires since they were in college.
He had to admit that Zhao Manyan had brought him to a good place. It was very soothing lying here in a hot spring filled with unique herbal fragrances.
He sank into the hot towel behind his head. He could feel the effects of the herbs slowly penetrating his skin and muscles, releasing the tension in his nerves. He closed his eyes as his therapist softly massaged his head. The fragrance from the hot spring assailed his nostrils, as if he was lying on the chest of an elegant woman.
Mo Fan soon fell asleep.
—
It was a comfortable nap, and he completely lost track of the ti. When he woke up, he realized that he had only been asleep for half an hour, yet he felt energetic, as if he had slept for a few days!
“Co on, let’s grab so drinks!” Zhao Manyan smiled when he saw Mo Fan was awake.
“Not bad, this is a nice place!” Mo Fan complinted. Zhao Manyan did bring him to a great place this ti.
“The herbs are refined by so reputable herbalists. The hot spring also has so healing effects that can treat our inner injuries. We were stuck in the Pyramid for so long, there might be little injuries that we are not aware of. A short bath here can quickly take care of them,” Zhao Manyan told him.
“I see,” Mo Fan nodded.
“You should feel very relaxed, too. It’s the combination of the Blessing Elent and the Psychic Elent. The Parthenon Temple is an expert at both. I was told that the owner of this reflexology center is actually soone from the Parthenon Temple. They have branches in every major city,” Zhao Manyan went on.
“Oh, as expected of the Parthenon Temple, earning money is always so easy for them. A place like this would obviously be popular among the Hunters. They are constantly tortured ntally in the wild, so it usually takes them a long ti for them to recover,” Mo Fan predicted.
“Mo Fan, you shouldn’t just focus on your cultivation. You really should enjoy life soti. If you sohow die all of a sudden, you might regret not enjoying life yet,” Zhao Manyan chided him.
“You’re right about that.”
They had so cocktails under the warm sunlight coming through the sunroof. It was indeed a relaxing afternoon.
—
Ti passed pretty quickly. Mo Fan, Zhao Manyan, and Mu Bai had agreed to et at the auction in the evening.
They had just co out from the Pyramid, so of course they had so valuable loot with them. It would have been tricky to sell them in Egypt, so they decided to sell them in Athens instead.
They went back to the hotel and knocked on Mu Bai’s door.
Mu Bai finally opened the door after a while. He was still wearing the sa stern face he’d had before they parted ways in the afternoon.
Mo Fan sensed that sothing was not right. He asked in a serious tone, “Mu Bai, is sothing troubling you!? Just tell us, don’t you trust us yet!?”
Zhao Manyan noticed sothing was strange about Mu Bai, too. He blurted out, “Are you under a Curse or sothing? Like you’re being haunted by a female Mummy from the Pyramid?”
Mo Fan imdiately glared at Zhao Manyan, forcing him to shut his mouth.
“Sothing is happening,” Mu Bai confessed when the two asked about it. He continued, “It’s sothing about my cultivation. I’ve been stuck at the peak Advanced Level for quite so ti.”
“The sa goes with us,” Mo Fan sighed. “I thought it was sothing serious. Just think about it, we are all stuck in the sa situation. Unfortunately, the Super Level isn’t that easy to achieve, even though so people have achieved it after observing flowers floating on the lake or listening to the falling leaves. It’s more about building it up. If you want to turn a river into a sea, you have to gather a hundred rivers... take your ti,” Mo Fan advised. He knew why Mu Bai was feeling troubled.
Mo Fan knew how diligent Mu Bai was. He even thought Mu Bai was working harder than him at tis. The man had only co so far because of his hard work and effort in searching for opportunities.
However, the Super Level was not achievable with re diligence. Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan were searching for their path to the Super Level, too. Unfortunately, the Pyramid did not have the things they were looking for. They had no choice but to place it in the hands of fate.
Heidi was in a similar situation. Her foundation was firr, yet she also could not touch the Super Level.
“Mo Fan is right, you shouldn’t worry about it. It’s not easy to break through to the Super Level. Not everyone can beco a Super Mage. Just enjoy the present, don’t think too much about it,” Zhao Manyan consoled him.
Mu Bai shook his head after hearing their comforting words.
He said after a slight hesitation, “Well... I think I found the next step.”
“Oh, isn’t that great... what the heck!?”
“Holy crap, what did you f**king say?”
Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan’s eyes went wide as they stared at Mu Bai.
“I say, I might have probed the Super Level. My Galaxies are shifting, my Stars are trying to expand too. I’ve read about this in so books. They say it’s a sign that I’m close to breaking through to the Super Level. I think I should find a safe place with a high level of energy to see if I can achieve the Super Level,” Mu Bai said seriously.
“How did this happen?” Zhao Manyan asked.
“It was by chance. I found a Fruit of the Ice Realm in the Qinling Mountains. Two Great Ruler-level creatures were fighting over it. I accidentally fell into the valley they were fighting in, breaking more than twenty of my bones. I hid close to a mountain stream for half a month. In the end, the Ruler of the valley defeated the beast from the Qinling Mountains. I noticed the creature was eating fruit from a tree with frozen leaves close to the mountain stream, so I used Plant Magic to turn so herbs with hypnotizing effects nearby into juice and had the roots of the tree with frozen leaves absorb it. I was actually hiding right under the tree’s roots. It took half a month, but the fruits that the tree bore gained a certain hypnotizing effect. The Ruler eventually fell into a deep slumber. I took the Fruit of the Ice Realm from it and ran away,” Mu Bai told them.
“Was the thing really that good?” Mo Fan asked.
Mo Fan could easily guess how dangerous the situation was, even though Mu Bai was plainly describing it. He would have died if anything went wrong!
“Mm, but there’s a problem. The Fruit of the Ice Realm will only mature with a unique poison, tjat was said to be extinct. I wasn’t sure if the poison of the Huntsman Spider in the Pyramid would work, but it actually did when I tried it out...” Mu Bai said.
“That’s...that’s unbelievable! So you’re saying that you’ve probed the Super Level with the Fruit of the Ice Realm?” Zhao Manyan exclaid.
“I guess so. I think it’s because my Primary Elent is Ice, and my Secondary Elent is Plant. The fruit matches perfectly with them. It was matured with poison too, and my Tertiary Elent was Poison... even though it’s pretty weak at the mont,” Mu Bai said.
Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan exchanged glances.
Was this for real? They had only gone away to enjoy themselves a comfortable bath, and yet Mu Bai had already taken the lead and probed the Super Level before them!
Was there anything worse than this!?
