Thinking of these things, Lu Xun couldn’t help but shake his head.

“It doesn’t make sense. If the foreigners are players from another world, why do they immediately have a level upon arrival while we Earth players have to start from level 0?”

“Moreover, the foreigners do not have obvious player characteristics, not to mention the least, they cannot resurrect.”

“From various signs, they are actually very different from players.”

“Maybe I’m overthinking,” Lu Xun thought to himself.

At this moment, Mao Nanbei’s third knife had hit the mysterious man.

The mysterious man’s dark purple flame wings may look mighty, but they are nothing in front of Mao Nanbei’s third knife!

Flashy nonsense!

The knife Qi directly tore through the flame wings, and the mysterious man’s hands, also surrounded by flames, tightly gripped the knife Qi.

In an instant, dozens of cuts were slashed into his black robes, with fresh blood oozing out continuously.

As he was thrown backward, the dark purple blood splashed in the air and was vaporized by the heat from the surrounding Knife Qi!

“Boom!” The mysterious man’s body collided halfway up Mount Taishan, creating a deep pit.

In front of the deep pit, there was a trench a hundred meters long!

This was cut out by the residual Knife Qi from that strike.

“Is he dead?” Lu Xun asked dumbfounded.

Mao Nanbei was still floating in front of him, protecting him behind her. Her face looked somewhat stern as she said, “Not yet.”

Under normal circumstances, this man would undoubtedly die from that strike, but at the last moment when he touched Mount Taishan, a strange power actually helped him dissolve the Knife Qi!

“No wonder this man is constantly retreating, it appears that there is something special about this mountain,” Mao Nanbei thought to herself.

When the mysterious man’s body came in contact with Mount Taishan, the yet-to-be fully formed altar inside the mountain started to operate.

The vegetation on the mountain began to wilt rapidly!

The vegetation on Mount Taishan was already sparse, like the last defiance of hair on a man’s head that’s about to go bald.

But no matter how stubborn or strong they were, they quickly withered and even turned into powder.

A bird, startled, attempted to fly away, but it was caught by a dark purple fine line, losing all signs of life!

In an instant, this mountain…

— Seemed to have died!

The dark purple filaments, like tentacles, continuously waved and creeped, one after another, they pierced into the back of the mysterious man.

They functioned like pipelines, connecting the man to the mysterious altar inside the mountain.

This scene looks pretty weird.

His expression became distorted, his flesh slightly bulging, and the dark purple flames surrounding him became even deeper, as if they could engulf everything.

“Above the sixth stage! And it’s still rising!” Mao Nanbei clenched her twin daggers harder, knowing she had to finish the fight quickly.

Her small body swiftly flew towards Mount Taishan. Before leaving, she did not forget to shout: “Little Junior Brother! If I can’t hold on, use the bamboo leaf Big Sister gave you!”

Lu Xun nodded, then took the emerald green bamboo leaf out of his storage ring and held it between his fingertips.

He could clearly feel the Sword Qi attached to the bamboo leaf, but he didn’t know how much power this Sword Qi actually had.

Logically, this kind of Sword Qi definitely couldn’t compare to the full strike by the person herself. How close could this Sword Qi be to the full strength of my Big Sister?

Mao Nanbei quickly arrived in front of Mount Taishan, and again launched the fourth knife from her daggers.

This knife was a bit surprising to Lu Xun. According to the previous progression of each knife being stronger than the last, he thought this fourth knife would be even more astonishing.

However, to his surprise, this fourth knife had returned to the level of the first knife, albeit slightly stronger.

What’s going on?

Is this little girl’s knife technique a three-knife cycle?

Just as Lu Xun speculated, Mao Nanbei launched the fifth knife with her left hand right after the fourth knife.

And the power of this fifth knife was similar to the previous second knife.

“It really is a cycle of three knives!” Lu Xun was stunned.

However, it seemed to be a bit stronger than the previous three knives.

What he didn’t know was that Mao Nanbei’s knife technique, which seemed invincible and shone brightly like a meteor in the night sky, actually had a somewhat absurd name – “Three-legged Cat”.

It is clearly a knife technique, but the name makes it sound more like a leg technique.

Naturally, this knife technique was passed down by the teacher, created, and named by him.

It seems humorous, but in fact, it has profound implications.

If every strike were indeed stronger than the last, with no pause in between, every time Mao Nanbei engaged in fierce combat with someone, her body would be left with hidden injuries.

However, this method of cycling through three strikes and gradually getting stronger is much better.

Well, it’s hard to hide the wicked pleasure in it!

The mysterious man, who originally couldn’t withstand Mao Nanbei’s onslaught, now seemed to handle it with ease.

His Cultivation Base was still rising, and a dark purple flame nearly hit Mao Nanbei, grazed her clothes, forcing Mao Nanbei to cut off that piece of her garment.

The mysterious man joined his hands together, murmuring words under his breath:

“Yan Yan!”

The dark purple flame turned into a long snake, like dozens of fire snakes coming out of their holes, attacking Mao Nanbei together.

“A cat afraid of snakes?” Mao Nanbei sneered, and with a swing of her hand, her knife fell.

The dozens of fire snakes were all cut off by her Knife Qi, and at this moment, the mysterious man’s Cultivation Base also fully steadied.

“Cultivation Base of the sixth stage of Great Perfection! How is this possible!” Mao Nanbei’s little face grew tight, her cat ears standing up straight, expressing her seriousness.

The previously fierce Mao Nanbei swiftly made a decision in her heart:

“I can’t beat him.”

She would surrender first!

With a slight bend of her legs, her entire body rapidly flew backward, leaving the range of Taishan.

“Little Junior Brother, draw your sword!” Mao Nanbei exclaimed.

Lu Xun nodded slightly, he naturally knew that when Mao Nanbei asked him to draw his sword, she was definitely referring to his second senior sister’s Sword Qi.

This was his trump card for this trip down the mountain, he didn’t expect to use it so soon.

But after all, he was a player with a conscious flow, he knew clearly – “no trump card equals an empty one”!

Hiding the trump card is not useful, if he doesn’t use it now, they might die. His trump cards might then become the enemy’s spoils of war.

Mao Nanbei was so eager to let Lu Xun unsheathe his sword, it was certain that the life and death of their opponents were hanging in the balance!

If he hesitated for a moment and couldn’t bear to draw his sword, the two of them would surely die!

Therefore, Lu Xun did not hesitate at all.

However, he had always been unsure about his second senior sister’s strength, so he was uncertain whether this bamboo leaf could kill this man?

Based on what the little girl had just said, this man had forcibly raised his Cultivation Base to the peak of the Sixth Realm!

That’s equivalent to a Level around 70!

Considering it carefully, even when he was playing the Explosive Temper Great Cane Hero account in his previous life, he never killed an enemy of this Level from the Foreign Race.

To him, overtaking a few levels to kill someone was still plausible, but overtaking 10 levels to kill someone with a character at Level 60 was absolutely impossible!

“Draw the sword!”

The Sword Qi inside the bamboo leaf was being led by Lu Xun at this moment. It was at this moment that Lu Xun could roughly sense its strength.

The bamboo leaf led Lu Xun to the area above Taishan, then fell from his hand.

It was like a fallen leaf dropping from a branch, fluttering down lightly.

But in reality, suspended above this small bamboo leaf was a gigantic black Sword Qi!

This gave the impression of a tiny fallen leaf, holding up a several hundred-meter-long black longsword, falling from the sky, striking towards the mountaintop!

Black spread out around it. In an instant, it seemed like a blindfold in front of Lu Xun’s eyes, everything was pitch black, and he couldn’t see anything.

It wasn’t just him, even Mao Nanbei, who was much stronger than him, was the same.

The world was filled with black Sword Qi, preventing one from seeing everything around!

It was as if they had been blindfolded.

A single leaf can block the sight!

Then, they heard a thunderous explosion.

The sound and movement were too loud, it could probably be heard for hundreds of miles around!

In this huge sound, the heart-wrenching scream of the mysterious man was so insignificant, completely overshadowed, it could hardly be heard.

When Lu Xun and Mao Nanbei regained their sight and looked down together.

All they saw was a huge pit.

Taishan was nowhere to be seen!
