Chapter 1013: How Am I Supposed to Shower in the Future?

The poison glands could secrete sticky fluids that the Cave Lizard Frog would coat its tongue in to use as a weapon during battle.
The Cave Lizard Frog’s strong back legs and 2-ton body made it into a battering ram.
When the Cave Lizard Frog collided against a target, the poison would cause double the damage on top of the physical damage.
Bei Xu was in the bloodied, mangled state he was in because he had encountered a pinnacle Cla.s.s 2 subterranean dimensional rift.
The Cave Lizard Frog had started off as a pinnacle Cla.s.s 4 dimensional lifeform but evolved to Cla.s.s 5 after consuming some Cla.s.s 4 dimensional lifeforms.
Hence, Bei Xu was caught completely off guard and was attacked by the Sharp Shadow Bat.
Thankfully, the Sharp Shadow Bat had defended Bei Xu and kept him from dying.
Bei Xu was lucky that he had encountered a pinnacle Cla.s.s 2 dimensional rift. Otherwise, he would have been attacked by more than just the Cla.s.s 5 Cave Lizard Frog.
When the Cave Lizard Frog collided against the Sharp Shadow Bat and Bei Xu, the Sharp Shadow Bat used Bat Colony Sucking.
Most of the dimensional lifeforms from the pinnacle Cla.s.s 2 dimensional rift were like moving blood bags that the Sharp Shadow Bat could use to heal Bei Xu’s injuries.
This kept Bei Xu from losing his life and allowed the Sharp Shadow Bat to continue fighting.
During the last Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting, Lin Yuan knew that Bei Xu was basically a simpleton.
He did not know how to use Diamond fey storage boxes or the spirit fluids that Genius had concocted. Instead, he had carried the Diamond fey storage boxes and spirit fluids around like they were his treasures.
Lin Yuan had used law power to use Star Spirit Seat to provide Bei Xu with many books about spirit qi professional knowledge. The method of using the Diamond fey storage boxes and spirit fluids was included in the books.
Using instructions from the books, Bei Xu fed the spirit fluids to the Bronze X/Fantasy I Sharp Shadow Bat.
After a day, the Sharp Shadow Bat evolved to Platinum X/Fantasy I.
The increase in the Sharp Shadow Bat’s power also gave Bei Xu the courage to explore the underground world.
He had decided to tackle the pinnacle Cla.s.s 2 dimensional rift because of the two source-type items inside.
Bei Xu’s plan had been solid, but it was almost ruined because of the Cave Lizard Frog.
The Cla.s.s 3 Cave Lizard Frog was about as strong as a Diamond fey. The Platinum X/Fantasy I Sharp Shadow Bat had about the same amount of power as a Diamond X/Legend fey.
Hence, it was not difficult for the Platinum X/Fantasy I Sharp Shadow Bat to defeat the Cave Lizard Frog.
The Sharp Shadow Bat made short work of the wave of dimensional lifeforms. It spared the Cla.s.s 5 Cave Lizard Frog to use Bat Colony Sucking to heal Bei Xu’s injuries.
As the Sharp Shadow Bat drained the vitality from the Cave Lizard Frog, the vitality in Bei Xu increased.
He slowly rose to his feet but soon s.h.i.+fted his injured organs. Before he could even take another breath, he collapsed back to the ground.
It was only after half an hour that Bei Xu was fully healed.
Once he was recovered, he instructed the Sharp Shadow Bat to absorb the blood from the subterranean dimensional lifeforms to replenish its spirit qi.
When the Sharp Shadow Bat’s spiritual power reached its peak again, Bei Xu led the Sharp Shadow Bat into the pinnacle Cla.s.s 2 dimensional rift.
The wounded Bei Xu stumbled out of the dimensional rift with the Sharp Shadow Bat a few hours later.
As he looked at the source-type items in his hand, a radiant smile stretched across his face.
He sighed to himself. “I finally have things of my own!”
Although he could not form contracts with the two source-type items, he was not dispirited.
After the Sharp Shadow Bat cleansed his body of the curse, he was now a free agent that did not have to be commanded by anyone.
Moreover, he now had a Platinum X/Fantasy I Sharp Shadow Bat, which was considered to be powerful for where he lived.
Now that he had two source-type items, Bei Xu would be able to find suitable spirit qi professionals and use the Sharp Shadow Bat’s Bat’s Fangs Blood Seed to control the spirit qi professionals. He would instruct the spirit qi professionals to form contracts with the source-type items to increase their power.
This would allow Bei Xu to gain subordinates and begin his establishment of a faction.
Owning resources in the Grotto Continent was just like an impoverished person owning a diamond. He had to use the resources to reap the benefits.
Bei Xu led the Sharp Shadow Bat to an underground river. He jumped in and happily washed off all the grime on his body.
Once he was clean, he shook his hand and took out something wrapped in cloth. The item looks like the stomach lining of an insect-species fey.
Inside the stomach lining were dimly glowing rocks that Bei Xu had obtained from the bodies of other insect-species feys to create a simple lamp.
Under this lamp light, Bei Xu started to wash his tattered clothes.
Suddenly, Bei Xu sensed a pressure, and all the hair on his body stood on end.
Bei Xu hurriedly picked up his lamp and ran over without even storing his clothes.
Bei Xu saw a red scaly tail disappear under the river.
He stood rooted to the ground, his heart pounding in his chest.
Despite having lived in the underground world for so long, this was the first time he discovered that there was life in the river.
Bei Xu did not have any intention of fighting back against the pressure.
He stood on the sh.o.r.e and murmured, “Wow, how am I supposed to shower from now on?”
