Chapter 869: Obtain the Space Breaking Spell
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"What's wrong?"
When Xu Que was hesitant, Jiang Hongyan walked to him and asked in a low voice.
Xu Que shook his head, "This restrictive spell is quite powerful. I am considering whether I should break with my magic arts. I worry my magic arts could be too powerful, which might ruin this burrow!"
"Maybe I can have a try!" Jiang Hongyan asked with a faint smile as she blinked her beautiful eyes.
Xu Que was surprised, "Little girl, do you know how to break this restrictive spell?"
"I can have a try!" Jiang Hongyan walked to the opening of the burrow with a faint smile.
Xu Que became speechless. Jiang Hongyan said she wanted to have a try, which meant she was able to break that restrictive spell!
For so long a time, Xu Que had underestimated Jiang Hongyan's strength. She seldom revealed her strength before. However, when she killed cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage easily, Xu Que realized she was very powerful.
He didn't expect she even knew how to break the restrictive spell at such a high level. This was really awesome!
Whoosh!
At this time, Jiang Hongyan had started her operation. She lifted her jade-like hands gently. Then, strands of dazzling golden light appeared among her fingers.
The gentle strength in those golden light was as quiet as water like her character. However, the strength contained in the golden light was extremely majestic!
Swish!
Suddenly, she pointed out her finger, and the golden light was instantly turned into a small beam of light, which directly collided on the barrier of that restrictive spell!
Rumble!
Along with a muffled sound, the entire cave trembled a bit. Luckily, the strong stone wall hadn't been damaged.
Jiang Hongyan seemed to be very accurate and stable in controlling her strength. The golden light beam constantly impacted the restrictive spell in the burrow, which kept trembling the burrow slightly.
At this time, the powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion had already arrived.
Seeing this, everyone was shocked immediately.
They also knew that this restrictive spell was extraordinary. At least they were not powerful enough to break it.
"I didn't expect after so many years, the stage of the Holy Senior is lower than before, but her strength was more unfathomable!" a powerhouse of the Imperial Palace said immediately in a dignified face.
Someone beside him also nodded, "I guess even the powerhouse at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage couldn't break this spell easily. Although the Holy Senior has just reached the Crossing Calamity Stage, she managed to damage this spell! No wonder she is the Empress of the Tong Tian Nation!"
Crack!
At this moment, a crisp sound came in from the burrow suddenly as if glass cracked.
Xu Que was quite happy. Then, he started to watch the burrow carefully.
As expected, the restrictive spell was full of cracks. The dazzling light on the spell disappeared, and the entire spell had dimmed down.
"It's OK now!" Jiang Hongyan stopped her magic arts and looked at Xu Que with a faint smile at this time.
Everyone in the burrow was shocked.
It is OK?
What does this mean?
Could it be that she has broken the restrictive spell?
"Holy Senior is amazing! Holy Senior is powerful! Holy Senior is awesome!" Buttface yelled suddenly. He would try to flatter Jiang Hongyan at the earliest opportunity.
"You don't have to tell me! My woman is definitely awesome!" Xu Que patted Buttface' s forehead. At the same time, he dashed into the burrow after smiling at Jiang Hongyan.
The rest people couldn't help but twitch their lips, especially the powerhouses of the Imperial Palace almost abused Xu Que as being shameless!
…
At the same time, the two Heavenly Human cultivators, who were standing in front of the stone wall in the distance, were totally shocked.
"Was that restrictive spell…broken in this way?" the female cultivator asked in disbelief.
"What an awesome human woman!" the male cultivator lit up his eyes as he stared at Jiang Hongyan thoughtfully.
"No, we have to report this to the Head of our Tribe. We should detain them by activating the Heavenly Human Trial immediately!" the female cultivator of the Heavenly Human Tribe came to herself and said anxiously.
The male cultivator of the Heavenly Human Tribe replied with a faint smile, "Just go, I will stay here and keep a close watch on them!"
Without thinking about it, the female cultivator unfolded the 2 white feather wings behind her back and flew into the sky directly. Then, she flew away at a very fast speed.
The male cultivator continued to stare at the stone wall with a smile, "This is the first time for me to see such a gorgeous and powerful human woman! I, Tian Zhan, must get this woman!"
…
Whoosh!
At this moment, Xu Que has successfully plunged into the burrow and appeared in front of the corpse.
Obviously, this is the body of Zhang Tiandao!
Beside him, there were two old wooden boxes. Xu Que waved his hand to suck the 2 boxes into his palm without any hesitation.
After detecting that there was no danger on the wooden box, he opened it.
Immediately, a burst of light fragrance came in. In one wooden box, there was an old spell, which was giving off exotic fragrance.
In the other wooden box, two black spells were hidden.
When he opened that box, he saw the two spells were wrapped by a faint halo. The void around the halo was slightly distorted.
"The Space Breaking Spell!"
Xu Que was quite excited and couldn't hold back the wild joy in his heart.
He didn't expect he could obtain the long-cherished Space Breaking Spells in this way before upgrading the System to Version 10!
Nobody else could be so lucky as he was!
"System, identify these spells!"
In order to confirm the function of the spells, Xu Que placed all the 3 spells into the package of the System together.
Soon, the System identified all the 3 spells!
[Low Grade Space Breaking Spell]: User could go to the desired destination with this spell by passing through the void! (Note: 1. This Spell can only be used in an area with interlaced void. 2. The destination must be a real place where the user has ever been to.)
Phew!
After seeing that, Xu Que let out a sigh of relief and set his heart at rest utterly.
Obviously, the two black spells were the Space Breaking Spells!
It also proved that this spell can go anywhere through the void. The only two conditions were that the user had to find a suitable place to use it; and the destination must be real and cannot be imagined out of thin air!
This is great! I can even leave for the Earth now! An excited smile appeared in Xu Que's face.
Then, he turned to another yellow spell which gave off exotic fragrance…
[Spell of Flower Sea]: This spell, which is drawn with the runes of illusory arrays, could be used to generate a vivid sea of flowers!
A spell to create a flower sea? Xu Que was stunned a bit. Then, he couldn't help but smile wryly as he looked at the corpse of Zhang Tiandao.
It seemed this Zhang Tiandao was really an affectionate person! This Spell of Flower Sea was apparently something to please a woman! Obviously, he planned to give the woman a romantic moment, but he didn't expect he was betrayed by that woman!
"Alas! Zhang, please restrain your grief and accord with inevitable changes! If I meet that bitch in future, I don't mind avenging you!" Xu Que said with emotion. Then, he searched Zhang Tiandao's corpse with his Soul Strength.
After all, this guy really had a lot of good stuff! Even the restrictive spell he set up at the opening of the burrow was quite extraordinary!
Unfortunately, Xu Que didn't find anything in Zhang Tiandao's corpse.
According to Zhang Tiandao's last words, his storage rings had been taken away by that woman. What he had were only the 2 most precious Space Breaking Spells. That useless Spell of Sea Flower which was kept next to his skin should be very important to him!
Xu Que shook his head and thought about what he could do for Zhang Tiandao.
He stretched out 2 of his fingers, which were full of strength of his Taoist Connotation, and pointed them at the stone wall beside Zhang Tiandao.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
In an instant, a line of small characters appeared in the stone wall – All Members of the Yi Ren Family shall Die!
"OK, that's all what I can repay you at this moment. Goodbye!"
After saying that, Xu Que left the burrow.
Jiang Hongyan, Buttface and others were waiting outside the burrow.
When Xu Que came out, everyone fixed eyes on him and was curious whether he had obtained the Space Breaking Spells!
"We can leave now!" Xu Que said with a faint smile as he looked at Jiang Hongyan.
Through his reaction, the rest people realized he had really obtained those legendary Space Breaking Spells!
The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace couldn't help but get excited. Then, they walked up and asked, "My fellow cultivator, could you take us with you when you leave this place by using the Space Breaking Spell?"
After killing the Young Master of the Saint Palace, they couldn't stay in the Xuanzhen Continent anymore. They could only survive by leaving this continent. Moreover, the Space Breaking Spell could also take them to the legendary Celestial Realm!
"I can't do that! The place I will go is not suitable for you! Also, the Space Breaking Spell can't take us to the Celestial Realm. Just forget about it!" Xu Que shook his head. Then, it seemed he realized something else, so he continued to say, "By the way, I suggest you'd better leave here. For the further we go into this place, the more dangerous the situation will be!"
"Eh…" the powerhouses of the Imperial Palace were quite disappointed and desperate after hearing that.
They didn't know whether Xu Que's words were true or not. If they couldn't leave the Xuanzhen Continent, they had to spend the rest of their lives in the Road of Heavenly Ascension. From time to time, they would also be hunted down by someone who came into this area.
"What he said is right!"
Suddenly, a cold voice came in from the exit of the cave.
Everyone was shocked and looked up abruptly.
They saw a handsome and tall man with a pair of giant white feather wings on his back was walking in slowly. He looked very holy!
However, the man was smiling sarcastically. He fixed his eyes on Jiang Hongyan as he sneered, "All of you will be endangered if you go out of this cave! Regretfully, you can't go back now and have to move forward!"
Then, many big bangs came in from the sky immediately.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Along with many air-rending sounds, countless figures appeared in the sky. All of them had a pair of white feather wings on their back. From a distance, they were just like numerous angels!
"Howl! How could so many cultivators of the god-damned Heavenly Human Tribe come to this place?" Buttface shouted in surprise immediately!
Chapter 870: The Heavenly Human Trial
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Almost everyone in the area was shocked. The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were completely dumbfounded with disbelief.
When they heard that there was a Heavenly Human Tribe for the first time, they didn't believe it at all. After all, they had never heard of the Heavenly Human Tribe! Also, they were on the dangerous Road of Heavenly Ascension. They couldn't believe that a tribe could exist in this area for tens of thousands of years!
But now, they really had seen it with their own eyes. A group of graceful cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe with white feathered wings on their backs descended from the sky! Each of these cultivators was very powerful. Most of them had reached the Crossing Calamity Stage. Two cultivators were older and had even reached Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage!
"Wow! This is the first time that I ever saw a living angel! They are really interesting!" Xu Que said, as his eyes lit up ,staring at the cultivators curiously.
The rest of the people didn't know what Xu Que was thinking. But Jiang Hongyan and Buttface knew clearly that this guy, whose stomach was full of wicked ideas, was definitely thinking about how to play with these cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe.
"Ignorant human cultivators, we are not angels but cultivators of the noble Heavenly Human Tribe!" The male cultivator of the Heavenly Human Tribe who walked out first said, as he sneered at everyone. His name was Tian Zhan, and he had been the first one to spot Xu Que and his team in the stone wall.
He had figured out that the relationship between Jiang Hongyan and Xu Que was quite close. Therefore, the first person to make him unhappy was Xu Que.
"Noble? Hah-hah-hah-hah!" Xu Que laughed and waved his hand. "Please don't tease us, okay? My buddy Buttface has said you are some angels in the sky at most! How could you say you are the Heavenly Human Tribe?"
"Crap! I never said that!" Buttface shouted immediately to avoid being implicated.
"Humph! Only the inferior human cultivators could have a dog as their buddy!" Tian Zhan snorted, his eyes full of disdain and ridicule.
"Enough!"
Suddenly, a sonorous voice rang out.
Those cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe from the sky had landed on the ground. Among them were hundreds of male, female, old, and young cultivators.
Now the powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were completely outnumbered. This scene terrified the powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion, who stared at the cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe with apprehension.
Xu Que was quite calm, however. He didn't take these cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe very seriously. As long as cultivators at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage, like the Emperor or Lord Zeng, were not included in his enemies, he was able to defeat them.
After all, even Qin Wei, who had also reached the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage, had almost been killed by him. This bunch only had two cultivators at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage, which was nothing for him!
"I didn't expect human cultivators could arrive at this place after 1,000 years. According to the rules, you could only enter the territory of our tribe after passing the Heavenly Human Trial!" The two cultivators at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage walked out and said seriously.
The clothes of these two middle-aged cultivators were also different from the rest of the cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe. The word "Left" and "Right" were embroidered on their sleeves respectively!
"Heh-heh, you may not believe me when I say it. To the Exploding Heavens Faction, all rules are nothing! I don't want to participate in your Heavenly Human Trial! And you can do nothing to change my mind!" Xu Que sneered. He didn't want to enter the territory of this Heavenly Human Tribe unless it was necessary!
However, according to the route mentioned in Zhang Tiandao's last words, there was a place at the end of this road where he could use the Space- Breaking Spell. He had to go there to check it out!
"I am afraid this is not up to you!" The two cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage's faces darkened as they said this seriously. The rest of the cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe said nothing. However, their faces were full of ridicule and disdain.
Tian Zhan was gloating, and he fixed his eyes on Jiang Hongyan!
"Let's have a fight before deciding whether this is up to us! Come on, let's fight, I mean all of you!" Xu Que didn't want to waste his time here, so he waved his hand at those cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe and was about to fight them!
The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion, who were totally shocked, looked at Xu Que in surprise.
You want to fight all of them? Are you kidding?
Their cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage are more than ours! They also have two cultivators at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage! How could you fight all of them?
However, to their surprise, the Heavenly Human Tribe ignored Xu Que's provocation. They stood at the exit of the cave and stared at Xu Que fearlessly.
The two cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage said slowly, "Once you leave this cave, the Heavenly Human Trial will be commenced immediately. If you want a fight, just get out of the cave!"
The Heavenly Human Trial will start when we step out of this cave?
Xu Que was stunned a bit.
It seems the Heavenly Human Tribe is quite extraordinary. They are really well-prepared!
Although I don't know what the Heavenly Human Trial is, I know it would be a boring trial, according to the manner of these people!
"If this is the case, I have nothing to say!" Xu Que smiled immediately. Then, he placed his hands behind his back and said sonorously with majestic momentum, "Alive, be man of men! Dead, be soul of souls! The members of the Exploding Heavens Faction regard life and death lightly and always embrace the challenge boldly! Do you want us to go out? Heh-heh…."
After saying that, he paused a bit. The momentum in his body became even stronger as if he was invincible! The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were growing more and more shocked.
Alive, be man of men! Dead, be soul of souls!
Regard life and death lightly and always embrace the challenge boldly!
How heroic these words are!
Anyway, we can't go back. We��d rather rush out and have a good fight with
those cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe!
The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion clenched their teeth and decided to follow Xu Que and have a good fight outside!
All this time, Xu Que continued to say, "You want us to go out, right? Heh-heh, that's not what we are going to do today!"
Charge…what? Wait!
The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were flummoxed. Before Xu Que said that, they had been about to rush out under Xu Que's command.
Now they realized something was wrong!
We are not going out?
Crap, are you insane?
If you don't want to go out, why did you utter those words in such a heroic and majestic way?
We were so close to rushing out!
"Now what? We won't go out, what will you do? If you are not cowards, just come into this cave and kill me! Na-na-na!" Xu Que winked his eyes at those cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe with an extremely wicked expression!
The cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe were also dumbfounded, for they didn't expect this guy would use this wicked trick.
One second ago, he was so majestic and heroic! The next second, he was so wicked! Everyone was surprised by this contrast. The bad-tempered person would be driven mad because of it.
"Humph! Shameless!" A female cultivator of the Heavenly Human Tribe scolded immediately.
"You shut up!" Xu Que retorted.
All the cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe were totally annoyed. The female cultivator who had spoken up was even angrier. She shouted as she pointed at Xu Que, "You…an inferior human cultivator, are so despicable as expected!"
"You are despicable!" Xu Que retorted. Then he turned to Buttface and said, "Buttface, show them some freestyle!"
Howl!
Buttface immediately jumped out excitedly and stood up like a human. Then he said, shaking his body and waving his paws, "Yo! Yo! The skulls of the Heavenly Human Tribe are just like balls, which are kicked to a department store! The department store is selling balls, which are your skulls!"
"Your mother's fart is just like a dart, which flies to Iraq! The King of Iraq is watching a drama. After smelling this fart, he is satisfied. He said the one whose fart is stinkier will be appointed as a professor; the one whose fart is louder will be appointed as a headmaster!"
"How dare you!"
"Bastard!"
Instantly, the cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe were furious and started to shout angrily.
The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were dumbfounded again.
How could his abuse be so powerful and rhyming?
"Humph! Inferior human cultivators, do you really think you could stay in this cave safely?"
At this time, a cultivator of the Heavenly Human Tribe at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage shouted coldly, "According to the rules, we can't attack you before the commencement of the Heavenly Human Trial! However, you underestimated the power of this trial. If you don't want to come out, we will activate the Heavenly Human Trial, so that you will be devoured by it."
After that, he waved his hand and shouted, "Let's get started!"
"Yes, sir!"
Rumble!
Along with their shouts, a big bang came from the exit of the cave.
The next moment, the entire cave trembled a bit. A magnificent light screen swept in from outside. In the blink of an eye, Xu Que and the rest of the people were covered in that light screen!
Chapter 871: A Magnificent Feast Awaits You!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Woosh!
Their surroundings changed instantly; the walls of the cave shifted rapidly, twisting and turning in the sky as though they were alive. And, then, in a blink of an eye, it dissipated into thin air!
What replaced it was a broad plain with a thick forest on the horizon and clear skies above. Azure skies and green pastures; such a scenic view, but Xu Qu's team could hardly stay calm. They appeared shell-shocked and looked on with disbelief.
"So…the whole cave was a spell!"
"Oh my god, to think that such a ginormous spell exists in this realm!"
"No wonder something felt off the moment we stepped into that cave!"
"Wait, if that's the case, are we already involved in the Heavenly Human Trial from the moment we stepped into the cave?"
"Without a doubt, that seems to be the case!"
The powerhouses from the Imperial Palace and the disciples of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion quickly became solemn.
Xu Que was also surprised as he had felt that something was amiss ever since he first set foot into the cave. However, he had only guessed that the cold wind was suspicious. Never did he expect that the entire cave was fake, and the spell cast would be this unimaginably vast.
From this, they could deduce that the Heavenly Human Tribe's prowess, accumulated over millions of years, was something nobody should underestimate.
"The Heavenly Human Trial has already begun! From this moment on, this place will be locked down for a month, and the doors will automatically open once the time is up. Now, you have one day to run. At the same time tomorrow, everyone present today from my tribe shall begin the hunt!" A powerhouse at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage announced. His voice was as cold as ice as he stared at Xue Que and his gang.
One of the strongmen from the Imperial Palace spoke out as his face grew dark "This is unfair. Not only does your tribe outnumber us, but you also have two Great Vehicle Stage cultivators on your side. This is not a trial but a massacre!"
More snickering and jeering came from the Heavenly Human Tribe.
Only the two Heavenly Human powerhouses at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage remained expressionless. They replied icily, "We are the law enforcers. We enforce law and order; therefore we are not participating in this hunt!"
"Enforcing law and order? Look at the mess we are in right now; is there still any need to?" Xu Que asked, smiling.
The Heavenly Human Trial – for those uninformed, it may seem like a trial for outsiders. However, the truth was that it was a trial for the Heavenly Humans themselves, where they would be the predators, while the outsiders would become the prey.
"There are two catches to the Heavenly Human Trial. First, the one who finds the Heavenly Human Plate wins a chance to be sent away to safety and become our honored guest. Second, we would like to preserve the survivability of our prey. All of you, therefore, must ensure that there are at least three survivors by the end of the trial. They shall become slaves to the Heavenly Human Tribe!" The two Heavenly Humans at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle announced.
Those around Xu Que could not hide their shock upon hearing this news. It was especially so for the powerhouses from the Imperial Palace. They trembled in anger. Not only did the Heavenly People Tribe treat them as prey, they demanded that they guarantee three survivors to be taken as slaves! That was completely out of the question.
"The Heavenly Human Plate…." Xu Que was intrigued with the idea as he mumbled to himself.
That's an odd rule that did not tally with the character of the Heavenly Human Tribe. Since one can become a VIP once they find the Heavenly Human Plate, is it a test of luck? Or does the Heavenly Human Plate hold a deeper meaning for them?
As he thought it over, Xu Que became less anxious to kill the people of the Heavenly Human Tribe.
On the one hand, he did not want to startle them unnecessarily. After all, he had seen how strong and humongous their illusory spells could be. If he showed them his real prowess and frightened them, it might scare them into casting more illusory spells in defense. That would be detrimental to his search for the Space-Breaking Spell's activation location.
On the other hand, he was curious about the reason that the Heavenly Human Tribe organized the Heavenly Human Trial, and if it was connected to how he could use the Space-Breaking Spell. Now that he had acquired the Space-Breaking Spell, he was only one step away from returning to Earth.
So, for this step, he had to proceed with caution, with no tolerance for any mistakes.
"Holy Senior, what should we do now? Why don't we take a chance? We, the Imperial Palace, are the royals of the Tong Tian Nation. We must not be humiliated by the Heavenly Human Tribe!" An Imperial Palace powerhouse looked at Jiang Hongyan and asked in a low voice.
The rest of the gang also looked dark and furious. However, Xu Que stood out from the group and smiled. "Everyone, since the Heavenly Human Tribe is this friendly and even prepared this Heavenly Human Trial, we have no reasons to reject them! Let's go. The battle will only start tomorrow, so we should find a place to eat. Now that I think about it, it has been a long time since I cooked in the wild!
Once he finished speaking, he called Jiang Hongyan and Buttface over. The trio strode toward the forest in the distance. The crowd could not help but be speechless.
Are you cooking in the wild?
Things have come to this, and you are still in the mood to cook?
Dude, wake up! We are not here for an outing!
"Holy Senior, why are you going with him? Are we succumbing to become their prey?"
"Holy Senior, Holy Senior, please stay and say something!"
"Sigh, forget it. Let's follow them!"
"Let's go!"
In the end, out of their wits, the powerhouses from the Imperial Palace and the disciples of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion soon followed.
Hundreds of strongmen from the Heavenly Human Tribe looked on coldly. Sneering smiles never left their faces as they watched them leave, as though admiring their prey.
It was not until Xu Que and his people vanished into the dark of the forest that the Heavenly Human Tribe finally spoke.
"This batch of humans looks weak!"
"Ha, ha, the weaker they are, the better! This rare opportunity of the Heavenly Human Trial is one in a million!"
"For this trial, the first ten places shall be granted a Heavenly Human Plate and enter that place. In the future, they can leave with their ancestors to build a new world!"
"It is such a pity that the Heavenly Human Plate's availability is so limited. If we could find one here, it would be worth a great fortune!"
"Well, although the Heavenly Human Trial has been deactivated for years, the Heavenly Human Plate is not something you can find easily!"
"That's right. It is more pragmatic to think about how we can kill more people to secure a place in the top ten!"
After some discussion, everyone seemed more eager and determined to kill!
Tian Zhan stood alone at the side, his gaze locked onto Jian Hongyan.
He watched until she walked farther and farther away and finally vanished with Xu Que. He stared at where she once had been, the smirk on his face deepening by the minute. He licked his lips and said, "Heh! Tomorrow, at this hour, you shall be mine!"
…
At the same time, Xu Que and his people had entered the forest. Many ancient trees shrouded this place, denying sunlight a means to pass through. Every ancient tree was so enormous it would need at least ten people to embrace it. The many holes on the tree trunks seemed to be connected.
Xu Que went into one of the holes and found it to be like a cave. When he exited from the other end of the cave, he found himself hundreds of miles away from where he had been.
"Hmm? This is interesting?" Xu Que's interest was instantly piqued.
He was confident that this forest was unique and that it was a natural landform, not something that had been made by humans.
"Oi, young chap, what about the picnic you just mentioned? Hurry! My huge tongue is suffering from thirst and hunger!" A salivating Buttface urged.
Xu Que smirked and burst into a large grin. "There's no problem with cooking in the wild, but I'm not sure what you would like to eat?"
"What to eat? I am never picky with food, and I'll eat anything you prepare!" Buttface smiled agreeably and blinked his eyes.
Xu Que was amused. He smiled slyly. "Well, that's all I need. The two of you, come here! Buttface, lead these people from the Imperial Palace to gather some firewood. A magnificent feast awaits you!"
Chapter 872: You Are Not To Steal My Kill!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
What the crap was with this situation?
A great battle is imminent, and you're still in the mood to cook and eat?
The Imperial Palace powerhouses were extremely dissatisfied. However, under the immense pressure of Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan's auras and gazes, they had no choice but to follow Buttface in collecting firewood.
Once sure that they had left, Xu Que turned to Jiang Hongyan and smiled slightly, "Little Miss, any plans?"
"Can you deal with this?" Jiang Hongyan was also calm. She looked at Xu Que, as unwavering as still water.
"Of course! I just wanted to see what tricks they have up their sleeves. Anyway, this place will only be under lockdown for a month. It's no fun if we kill them off too quickly!" Xu Que shrugged.
Jiang Hongyan nodded softly and smiled. Of course, she knew that Xu Que was entirely capable of wiping out these Heavenly Humans. Not just Xu Que, but Jiang Hongyan herself was also capable of annihilating these hundreds of Heavenly Human powerhouses all by herself, including the three strongmen at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage.
However, Xu Que had not made his move back then and instead had brought them here. That was what had surprised Jiang Hongyan.
"To be honest, I have two plans in mind."
Xu Que continued, "First, I'm planning to find out more about how to activate the Space- Breaking Spell while playing with them. Second, you could cultivate at ease during this month, and merge that piece of soul in the God-realization Tree into your body. I reckon that there will be a brutal battle after they lift the seal of this place!"
They had no idea of how immensely rich these Heavenly Humans were or how deep their foundations ran. However, one thing for sure was that they should not belittle them.
Since they now had the luxury of a dangerless month, it was an excellent opportunity to prepare themselves.
Once Jiang Hongyan had entirely incorporated that piece of soul, her prowess would enter a new level. If she fought together with Xu Que, they wouldn't lose, even before a powerhouse such as the Emperor!
However, the ladies of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were shocked speechless. In such a crucial situation, at such a dangerous place, he is telling the Empress to go into secluded cultivation for a month?
"Okay!" Jiang Hongyan seemed to have guessed Xu Que's intent. She nodded without any hesitation.
"I'll find a good place for you!" Xu Que smiled. Under the horrified gazes of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion ladies, he scanned the surroundings for a suitable place. He observed the surrounding landscape with the Dragon Searching Spell and quickly found a place filled with Spiritual Qi – an ancient tree. The ancient tree had a hole; within it, strands of Wooden True Core flowed and circulated. It was bursting with life, a rare location that was remarkably suited for cultivation.
"Here then!" Xu Que landed in front of the tree and turned to Jiang Hongyan.
"Okay!" Jiang Hongyan stepped into the hole in the tree and sat down. She then took out the God-realization tree.
Swish!
With a big wave, Xu Que took out the Soul Marrow Essence he had previously obtained. Although he had brought along a piece of the Soul Marrow Crystal, which would be more powerful, Jiang Hongyan had needed just one month to merge with the soul. Even the Soul Marrow Essence was a bit excessive, so using the Soul Marrow Crystal would be unnecessary.
"Little Miss, sit tight! I'll create a Soul Gathering Array with the Soul Marrow Essence!"
As soon as Xu Que said that, he put his fingers together and dabbed some Soul Marrow Essence in them. He then flung it toward the hole in the tree.
Swish!
Swish!
Swish!
With every flick of his fingers, milky white Soul Marrow Essence went into the air and turned into beautiful curves. Like brilliantly shining stars, they flew toward Jiang Hongyan and encircled her, creating the formation.
Boom!
At last, the formation was complete, and the Array crystallized by the Soul Marrow Essence transformed into a white halo blanketing Jiang Hongyan.
"It's enough, little one!" Seeing that Xu Que was intent on continuing, Jiang Hongyan laughed as she stopped him from wasting the Soul Marrow Essence. This small Array was enough to sustain her cultivation for two or three months. There was no need to strengthen it further.
Xu Que examined the Array and nodded. He stopped the essence when he deemed that it was enough.
"Remember to come back in a month!" Jiang Hongyan finally closed her beautiful eyes as she smiled gently, entering secluded meditation. The God-realization tree in front of her also began to shine. Slowly, that piece of soul that was suppressed for countless years finally seeped out.
"Just a little more, I think!" Xu Que pondered for a moment and put together his two fingers again. One shot, then another, he released more and more Soul Marrow Essence into the formation. Threads of milky white essence glittered and shone, like the Milky Way in the sky. They flew toward the hole in the tree and solidified the formation, boosting its Spiritual Qi.
The ladies of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were stunned. They might not know about the God-realization tree, but they certainly recognized the Soul Marrow Essence. Xu Wue's generosity moved them very much, and they could not believe their eyes.
"These…are these all Soul Marrow Essence?"
"My god, he has so much!"
"He shot a lot!"
"I think that even the Imperial Palace could not take out so much at one go!"
The ladies were awed, and envy filled their eyes. If someone who would spend that much on them existed in the world, what more would they ask?
"Little fairies of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion, my Hongyan is preparing to practice in secluded cultivation for a month! Would you stay here and protect her?" Xu Que asked politely while looking at the ladies.
"What?" The female disciples of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were shocked at his words.
To stay here and guard the Empress?
Is that a joke? They can't do that!
It's apparent that the Heavenly Humans greatly outnumbered them. How could they possibly divide their headcount to stay guard here?
It sounded like a terrible plan!
"Rest assured! Those mere Heavenly Humans are nothing to me. I can defeat them all alone, so stay guard here and don't worry about anything. I've seen the character of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion, and I trust you all!" Xu Que smiled and waved. He suddenly pulled out a Spell Disk and set down an Array of Spiritual Level. He clicked his fingers, and with a swoosh, the Array flew toward the humongous, ancient tree, laying down a protective Array of Spiritual Level.
The ladies of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were speechless.
Didn't you say that you trust our characters?
What's the meaning of setting up a defense barrier right after saying that you trust us?
"Don't misunderstand, ladies. I'm just worried that the Heavenly Humans could attack us sneakily!" Xu Que grinned, thick-skinned as ever.
Although he felt that the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion could be trusted based on these few days of interactions, it is always better to be safe than sorry. The merger of Jiang Hongyan's soul was extremely crucial. There could be no mistakes!
"It's all right! However, fellow cultivator, are you sure that you don't need us to help fend off the Heavenly Humans?" The tall lady from the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion asked in apprehension. That was also what the rest of the ladies wondered. They knew that Xu Que was unbelievably powerful. If not, it would have been impossible for him to devastate the Saint Palace to this extent!
However, in the face of several hundred Heavenly Human powerhouses, of which almost all were at the Crossing Calamity Stage, how was he going to take them on? Not to mention that there were also two strongmen at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage, making their disparity in strength even greater.
"Of course I don't need your help! I won't let anyone who steals my kills off easily!" Xu Que said in all seriousness. He then turned and looked in the great distance. His lips pulled into a slight smile. His figure moved!
Swoosh! A bolt of lightning cut across the sky, taking Xu Que forward into distant lands.
Chapter 873: Just What Did It Say?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Swoosh!
A shadow swept through the forest. With a lightning bolt under his feet, Xu Que moved like a silent and stealthy ghost. His icy gaze gleamed coldly as he charged toward a predetermined direction.
He had noticed from the start that they were being followed by a Heavenly Human; ever since they had stepped foot into the forest, he could sense its presence. Although the stalker had concealed himself and moved invisibly, he could not escape the detection of Xi Que's overwhelming Soul Strength.
Swoosh!
Suddenly, Xu Que landed soundlessly on an ancient tree. Xu Que could see a figure hiding behind the ancient tree's trunk and appearing to sneak forward.
Xu Que laughed. "Yo, bro! Well, well, aren't you impatient. Didn't we agree that the battle would commence tomorrow? So why are you sneaking up on us already?"
"Ehn?"
The figure below was startled. Without lifting his head, the stalker flung out a magic art abruptly, its eerie blue flame tornadoed toward Xu Que like a poisonous snake!
Boom!
The flame hit the ancient tree and immediately reduced it to a pile of ashes. Xu Que bounced deftly off the void and landed on the ground with ease. He blocked the way of the Heavenly Human and looked at him with a smile. "Ho,ho, isn't this Tian Zhan?"
It was none other than the Heavenly Human powerhouse who had been the first to appear previously – Tian Zhan!
When Xu Que left with Jiang Hongyan, Tian Zhan could not wipe Jiang Hongyan's peerless beauty from his mind. In the end, he gave in to his urges and followed them into the forest. He had never expected to be discovered so quickly, after concealing his aura and carefully following them at a distance.
However, Tian Zhan heaved a sigh of relief when he realized that Xu Que was the one who had found him. He calmed down instantly and couldn't help but form a mocking smile. "You have surprisingly decent detection skills, to have discovered my location. However, it's a pity that you dared to face me alone. I don't know if I should call you clever or stupid!" Tian Zhan shook his head as he commented coldly.
A cultivator at the fourth level of the Form Synthesis Stage dared to challenge him – a Crossing Calamity cultivator – alone? How was this any different from walking into his own grave? Did he genuinely believe that he would follow the rules and only make a move tomorrow?
Tian Zhan's mocking smile deepened at these thoughts.
Alas, Xu Que was also smiling. In fact, his smile was brighter than Tian Zhan's. Coupled with that thieving look on his face, Xu Que looked insufferably atrocious!
"He, he! The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. You assumed that you were following us, but I was the one who led you here!"
Pfft. "Foolish human, so what if you led me here? I'm afraid that you're still clueless about your plight, as you seem not to know who the oriole is!" Tian Zhan sneered.
To Tian Zhan, he was the oriole, the final victor, as he was the one with a higher cultivation stage.
"Who's the oriole? Good question! Judging from your wings, you are the only one worthy of the title of the oriole!" Xu Que's eyes narrowed as he laughed.
Tian Zhan was surprised for a second but then shook his head. He asked in a ridiculing tone, "If I'm the oriole, what are you then? The cicada or the mantis?"
"Me? I'm neither!" Xu Que shook his head and lifted his arm.
Thud!
He clasped his fingers into a fist and shook the void with a muffled thud. Strands of powerful True Core Strength began to flow out, and a stream of dominating Taoist Connotation began to surround his fist.
Tian Zhan frowned slightly, seemingly noticing that Xu Que's strength might be more extraordinary than he had thought.
However, he didn't pay it much mind. After all, he was one of the highest cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage. When faced with a Form Synthesis cultivator who was one whole stage beneath him, he had nothing to be concerned about, no matter how extraordinary this opponent of his was!
That's the normal line of thought. The higher the cultivation stage, the more the cultivators realize the massive gap of prowess between each small level. Moreover, Xu Que was an entire level weaker than him!
"Why? Don't tell me that you want to be an Oriole too?" Tian Zhan snorted as rare interest filled his eyes. As if he was playing with a prey that was doomed to die by his hands, he ignored Xu Que's fist.
At Tian Zhan's words, Xu Que smiled and replied, "I don't want to be an Oriole! As my name says, the Exploding Heavens Faction's – Birdie Terminator!"
Swoosh!
Once he had finished, Xu Que's figure blurred as he lightly pushed his weight off the ground and charged toward Tian Zhan like an arrow leaving its bow.
"You're courting death!" Tian Zhan bellowed as his face darkened; he spread the pair of white wings on his back.
Boom!
A tornado engulfed his body instantly and brought him up to the skies. At the same time, an eerie blue flame left his hands, attacking Xu Que like a venomous blue snake.
"The one who is courting death is you!"
Xu Que laughed and ignored that blue flame. He continued to attack and delivered his blow!
Bam!
The eerie blue flame dissipated into nothingness the moment it came into contact with Xu Que's fist. At the same time, Xu Que continued to dash toward Tian Zhan at the speed of lightning!
"What?" Tian Zhan paled as he hurriedly withdrew. However, it was too late. No matter how fast Tian Zhan was, he would never be more rapid than Xu Que.
Once Xu Que executed the move Three Thousand Volts Lightning, the patch of lightning bolts under his feet had cut through the skies. Following that, the void surrounding Xu Que suddenly twisted and rippled, and Xu Que's figure slowly became indiscernible.
"Eh? This is…." Tian Zhan stood dazedly when he saw that.
Swoosh!
Before he could react, the void behind him rippled too. A Taoist Connotation-filled fist appeared.
"Killer God's Single Stroke!"
Bam!
Xu Que bellowed sternly. A fist impaled Tian Zhan from the back and stuck out of his chest!
The scariest thing was that the fist was coated with True Core Strength and Taoist Connotation, all of which were brutally annihilating any life force within Tian Zhan's body!
Tian Zhan stiffened and lost all color in his face. He was horrified and filled with disbelief as if he had not been able to react. How was he defeated this suddenly? Even more so with a single move!
"He, he, it's been so long since I used the Killer God's Single Stroke! If we're talking about one-on-one fights, this is indeed the sickest move of them all!" Xu Que said cheekily as he withdrew his fist.
The life within Tian Zhan had all drained away. Before he took his final breath, he turned toward Xu Que with great difficulty and asked with a trembling voice, "K…Killer God's Single Stroke, but where's the sword that struck?"
"Ha, ha! That's a great question. I admire you, so let me enlighten you! I kid you not, but the sword of the Killer God's Single Stroke needs to be explained from back when the little rabbit dug out the carrot!" X Que smiled.
The little rabbit?
Tian Zhan was about to die, but his curiosity and unwillingness to die forced his body to hold on just a little longer. He opened his eyes wide and perked up his ears, obviously wanting to hear the answer before he died.
Xu Que started slowly, "The little white rabbit dug out a carrot and went home happily. On his way home, a pangolin came out of nowhere, snatched his carrot and said a few words into his ears. When the little rabbit heard what the pangolin said, he committed suicide immediately!"
"Huh???" The dying Tian Zhan was utterly confused at Xu Que's words, his expression bewildered.
What…what the fuck was that story?
What did the little rabbit and the pangolin…what did they have to do with the Killer God's Single Stroke?
"All right! That's all for today. If you want to know what happens next, we'll carry on the next time we meet!" Xu Que suddenly closed in on Tian Zhan and laughed mischievously.
Tian Zhan's eyes opened wide as the fatal wound in his chest worsened!
Puu!
He finally vomited blood from unbearable rage. He used every last drop of his strength to yell furiously at Xu Que, "Just what did the pangolin say?!"
Chapter 874: Just Make Preparations!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
At this moment, in the forest, Jiang Hongyan was sitting quietly in the hole in the ground that had held the God-realization Tree. Her body was wrapped in a dazzling radiance, which made her a graceful otherworldly fairy maiden!
A strand of misty shadow was being extracted from the God-realization Tree in front of her, and was about to merge with her body.
Outside the hole in the ground, the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were sitting with their legs crossed. However, they were not in the mood for cultivation. All of them kept glancing behind with worried looks.
"Alas, I'm afraid he is overconfident about confronting those Heavenly Humans alone!"
"I'm afraid he is not overconfident. He is seeking death!"
"I guess he won't come back this time!"
The female cultivators kept shaking their heads and sighing. None of them believed Xu Que could come back alive.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, they heard something close by. They looked up and found Buttface and the powerhouses of the Imperial Palace returning with a lot of firewood.
Crash!
Buttface dropped the firewood on the ground. Then, he started to look around. Suddenly, his expression changed and he shouted in surprise, "Damn! Where is he? Tell him to cook food for us!"
"What? Where is the Holy Senior? Wait, this moment…" the powerhouses of the Imperial Palace were stunned. Then, they fixed their eyes on the radiant tree hole. The next moment, they were shocked by what they saw.
How could the Holy Senior perform secluded cultivation here?
"It seems the Holy Senior is performing the minor secluded cultivation, which can't be ended in a short period!"
"Tomorrow we will have fierce combat. Why does the Holy Senior perform secluded cultivation at this moment?"
"Damn! What should we do now?"
"What's wrong with Xu Que? Why didn't he stop the Holy Senior?"
"Right. And where is Xu Que now?"
The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace couldn't help but sweat anxiously.
After all, they were facing formidable enemies at this moment. The combat would be started within a day. Meanwhile, they were outclassed by their enemies, which worried them so much!
The slim woman of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion stood up and said with a wry smile, "This is arranged by Xu Que. He asked the Holy Senior to perform secluded cultivation here and asked us to protect her. He said he will face those powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe alone!"
"What?" The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace were shocked by what they heard.
"Is he going to confront hundreds of powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe alone?"
"My God! Is he insane?"
"Holy crap!" Buttface couldn't help but shout angrily. "Damn! I brought back so much firewood with great difficulty. How could he go to kill the Heavenly Human cultivators? This is unbelievable! As an adult, how could he ignore the priorities?"
The rest of the cultivators couldn't help but smile after hearing that.
Ignore the priorities?
Why did he say that?
Although it is absurd for him to try to kill the Heavenly Human cultivators alone, it is still better than cooking food for us here!
As cultivators, we can live without food for hundreds of years!
"Damn! This is so annoying. Judge for yourself, he promised to prepare food for us, but he ran away to do something else, does this make sense?" Buttface complained angrily.
However, nobody wanted to reply to him, for it was not the time to think about food at this moment!
"Buttface, what did you say?" Just at this moment, Xu Que's voice could be heard not far away.
People turned around instinctively and were shocked by what they saw. They saw Xu Que had returned unscathed with a pair of white feathered wings in his hand.
What? Wait!
Why is that pair of wings so familiar?
People's eyes opened wide as they stared at the wings in Xu Que's hand in surprise.
"Are…those the wings of the Heavenly Human cultivators?" Someone asked in a trembling voice.
The rest of the people were too shocked to answer.
The answer was quite obvious. Those familiar white feathered wings belonged to the Heavenly Human cultivators whom they had met not long ago. In this area, the only species with wings were people from the Heavenly Human Tribe.
"Holy crap! Little brat, what did you do just now? How many cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe did you kill?" Buttface also asked in surprise.
Xu Que replied by waving his hand with a faint smile, "I didn't kill a lot. There were so many of them, but they were all too weak. It was so easy for me to kill a general among them! Therefore, I brought back a pair of wings!"
Gasp!
Hearing that, people couldn't help but gasp!
Did he say he killed a general among so many Heavenly Human cultivators?
My God! I didn't expect he could come back unscathed with a pair of wings after confronting hundreds of Heavenly Human powerhouses at the Crossing Calamity Stage!
Hell! How powerful is this guy?
Many people were totally shocked by what they had heard as they imagined the heroic scene where Xu Que was valiantly facing those Heavenly Human cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage.
Xu Que acted tough in such a casual way. With Jiang Hongyan's calm smile on his face, he pretended nothing had happened.
In fact, what he said never happened. He killed Tian Zhan with the combination of the King of Tough-Acting Fist and the Killer God's Single Stroke. Then, he brought back Tian Zhan's wings and didn't go to confront those Heavenly Human cultivators.
What he did just now was merely acting tough!
"Come on, we will face the important moment soon. Let's make preparations first!" Xu Que clapped his hands and motivated the people seriously at this moment.
The people cheered up as they let out a secret sigh of relief.
Finally, we can start to prepare for tomorrow's combat!
It's not too late, and we still have time to set up some Arrays.
"My fellow cultivator, just tell us what to do. We will fully support you!" The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace replied immediately.
"Exactly! Just tell us what to do!" The slim woman of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion also nodded her head.
Xu Que said with satisfaction, "Great! Everyone is very active! Come on, buddy, please put the firewood together!"
"OK!" A powerhouse of the Imperial Palace said immediately. However, he was confused the next moment. "What? Put the firewood together?"
The rest of the people were also stunned and puzzled.
Why should we put the firewood together at this moment?
"Hell, why do you look at me with that expression? If we don't put the firewood together, how could we start a fire?" Xu Que asked. Then, he continued to give orders, "That's enough! Don't stand still! I need actions! Come on, you should start a fire! And you should place the pot on the fire. Remember, don't put oil into the pot now! These wings are very fatty. Oh, you, you should prepare chopped green onions and sesame seeds! Holy crap, Buttface, why do you play around? You should help others to start a fire. Remember, the flame should be high! The rest of you just step back and cheer for us!"
What?
People in the area were totally dumbfounded.
Start a fire? Place the pot on the fire? Prepare chopped green onions and sesame seeds?
Damn! Are you really going to cook food?
Howl! "Little brat, you are awesome!" Buttface shouted and jumped in wild joy.
After that, he rushed toward the firewood excitedly and started a fire directly without anyone's help. Xu Que smiled as he put a large pot on the fire. Then he filled the pot with water.
After a short while, the water in the pot started to boil. Then he threw the white feathered wings into the pot to boil for a short moment. After that, he took the wings out and threw them into the sky. Then, he waved his hand and the feathers on the wings were removed instantly.
Countless white feathers drifted down like a flurry of snowflakes.
In this heavy "snow", Xu Que started to cut the wings with a sharp sword. He slashed the wings to create several cuts in them.
Clang!
He kicked away the pot and placed a large grill on the fire. Then the large wings fell on the grills heavily! All his movements were so smooth, like floating clouds and flowing water. People were totally dumbfounded!
When they came to themselves, Xu Que started to apply oil, red chili powder, and hot pepper on the wings….
When the intense fragrance began to permeate the area, people were frightened.
"Is…this guy really going to do that?"
"Is he really going to cook food?"
"These are the wings of a Heavenly Human cultivator. Eating this is no different than eating people!"
"Hell, I can't stand it anymore!"
"People of the Exploding Heavens Faction not only eat mosquitoes, but also eat grilled wings of Heavenly Human cultivators!"
"I think I'm going to crack up!"
Chapter 875: Extraordinary Strength!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were totally confused.
The Heaven Devouring Demonic Mosquitoes are horrible, right? They drink human blood and reproduce in human corpses. If the quantity of this kind of mosquitoes is large enough, they could even kill cultivators of the Celestial Realm!
However, this guy just fried one mosquito to feed Buttface!
The Heavenly Human cultivators are completely identical with human cultivators except they all have a pair of wings.
But we never expected this guy would grill the wings of a Heavenly Human cultivator! This is nothing different than eating human hands! How brutal he is!
At the thought of this, these cultivators couldn't help but tremble to themselves. They realized that this gentle and handsome young man was much more ferocious than they had ever imagined!
"Little brat, wait, I have a feeling that it is inappropriate to eat these wings, right?" Buttface said hesitantly at this time.
When the wings were almost done, Buttface realized they were the limbs of a Heavenly Human cultivator.
"Whatever!" Xu Que said, rolling his eyes. He didn't care whether Buttface would eat the wings or not. What was his purpose in grilling the wings? Apparently, he was trying to act tough! The trick of acting tough was never the result but the process!
These grilled wings had earned over 10,000 Acting Tough Points for Xu Que. Whether Buttface would eat them was of no importance. Anyway, Xu Que wouldn't eat the grilled wings!
"Holy shit! Little brat, could you cook some Heaven Devouring Demonic Mosquitoes? I prefer to eat the mosquitoes!" Buttface said. Although he was a Demonic Beast, he couldn't accept eating limbs of a human.
Hearing that, the rest of the people became speechless.
The Heaven Devouring Demonic Mosquitoes? It seems they are not better than those wings! And they are even more disgusting!
Whoosh!
Just at this time, several air-rending sounds came in from afar. People were startled by the sounds. When they looked up, their faces turned pale immediately.
Hundreds of Heavenly Human powerhouses, including two Heavenly Human powerhouses at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage, were rushing toward them with horrible killing intent from outside the forest.
"Oh, no!"
"They are coming for us!"
"They have discovered we are roasting wings here!"
"What…what should we do? We have no hope of winning if we confront them directly!"
"Damn! My fellow cultivator, please stop your barbeque. We should find a way to defeat them!"
The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace were as anxious as ants on a hot pan. The female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion also looked worried.
Xu Que was still smiling calmly. He said, shaking his head, "Why are you in a panic? It is really unnecessary to worry about these Heavenly Human cultivators! Let me tell you that I will fight them alone later. None of you should get involved in the combat!"
Are you going to fight them alone?
We are not allowed to get involved in the combat?
Damn! Nobody wants to get involved in that combat!
People couldn't help but curse secretly!
Boom!
Almost at the same time, a magnificent pressure swept in. After that, they heard an angry roar, "Bastard, what are you doing?"
A Heavenly Human powerhouse at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage dashed toward Xu Que, staring at him angrily as if he would tear Xu Que into pieces.
"How dare you kill our people and ruin their bodies?"
"Human cultivators are low-grade creatures whose evolution hasn't been completed! How dare they eat the flesh of our people?���
"Shameless!"
"Disgusting!"
"Humph! This time you will pay with your blood!"
The rest of the Heavenly Human powerhouses also shouted angrily and were eager to kill Xu Que immediately.
Xu Que said with a wicked smile, "Actually, this is nothing personal! For me, all of you are edible!"
"Bastard!" The Heavenly Human powerhouses yelled angrily.
The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion felt their blood was almost frozen. They even wondered whether they were included in the "all of you" Xu Que had just mentioned!
"Humph! Shameless human cultivators, your attack upon our people means you've broken the rules. Instead of launching our attack tomorrow, we will do it right now!" The powerhouse at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage said coldly. Then, he raised his hand and yelled, "I declare the Heavenly Human Trial is commenced now!"
He waved his hand down abruptly!
Boom!
Instantly, hundreds of Heavenly Human powerhouses behind him dashed out!
Only dozens of them were at the Form Synthesis Stage. Most of them were at the Crossing Calamity Stage. Therefore, the entire strength of the Heavenly Human cultivators was extremely horrible!
According to the rules, two powerhouses at the Great Vehicle Stage didn't attack, but all the rest of the cultivators threw themselves forward. The sky was filled with all kinds of magnificent magic arts, which were suffocating for the human cultivators.
"Hah! Great! I don't want to do it tomorrow either!" Xu Que raised his arms with a faint smile. Then, he smashed down his fists abruptly.
Boom!
A dull sound came in from the void. A gigantic golden fist appeared in the air. Then, it smashed down with invincible Taoist Connotation directly.
"What?"
"Why is this momentum…so powerful?"
"No, retreat!"
The Heavenly Human powerhouses who had sensed the extraordinary power of this fist turned around and tried to escape.
However, as a cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage, Xu Que could wound even the cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage severely with his King of Tough-Acting Fist. How could these cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage and the Form Synthesis Stage avoid his attack?
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Along with many dull sounds in the air, a lot of Heavenly Human powerhouses exploded into blood mist one after another. After a short while, they had suffered great casualties!
"None of you could escape! Chew on my fist again!" Xu Que laughed as he threw out another punch heartily.
The King of Tough-Acting Fist reappeared and swept the entire area again with horrible momentum!
More and more Heavenly Human powerhouses died. The combat, which had just begun, turned white-hot.
This was not a combat or a trial anymore. This was a one-way slaughter!
"How…how could this be?" The two Heavenly Human powerhouses at the Great Vehicle Stage, who had planned to enjoy the show, were totally shocked and couldn't believe what they were seeing.
The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the Exquisite Pavilion were also dumbfounded.
Even though they had witnessed Xu Que's attacks before, they never expected Xu Que could be so powerful that he could kill dozens of powerhouses at the Crossing Calamity Stage with one punch!
Is he still a cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage? No cultivator in this world could do this! I'm afraid this is even impossible for cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage!
Bang!
At last, only dozens of Heavenly Human powerhouses survived.
The area had fallen into a dead silence!
The two Heavenly Human powerhouses at the Great Vehicle Stage were totally shocked. They tried to save their people but they were not fast enough to do that. It happened so fast that nobody could take any measures to stop Xu Que.
Nobody expected Xu Que could be so powerful that he could kill hundreds of powerhouses in such a short time! His strength was strong enough to scare everyone in this area away!
Chapter 876: This Is Outrageous!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
At this time, the System's warning tone kept ringing in Xu Que's mind.
Xu Que had earned around 20,000 Acting Tough Points and a lot of Experience Points through his attack. Now he was only half a step away from Level 5 of the Form Synthesis Stage! He would upgrade after several cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage! And he would be much more powerful at that time!
"Don't stand together! Let's spread out and kill him together!" A shapely female Heavenly Human cultivator shouted at this time. Her voice was crisp and penetrating!
Hearing that, the remaining Heavenly Human powerhouses spread out immediately.
Xu Que looked at the woman carefully.
The Heavenly Human Tribe had a lot of handsome men and beautiful women. With white feathered-wings on their backs, they looked holy like the legendary angels.
However, this woman was one of the outstanding cultivators. Because of her towering bosom, her sexy body was quite attractive. In comparison, her killing intent was even more formidable!
She survived Xu Que's attack, which meant she was one of the most powerful cultivators among those Heavenly Human powerhouses. Moreover, she managed to find the weakness of Xu Que's King of Tough-Acting Fist, which was not good at attacking a single cultivator, in a short time. It meant she was also smart!
"Killing formation!" the woman shouted abruptly.
Boom!
Along with the deafening air-rending sound, she started to attack Xu Que together with several powerhouses from different directions.
"Hmm! It seems I have to use other magic arts!" Xu Que waved his hand with a faint smile. Then, the violent flames of the Molten Green Lotus, the Bone Freezing Fire, and the Eight Waste Destruction Flame swept out like a sea of fire instantly!
Boom!
A big bang came in from the void. Three kinds of Mystical Fires were turned into over ten dazzling three-colored fiery lotuses, which shot out in different directions abruptly from Xu Que's body.
"Kill him!"
At this time, over ten Heavenly Heaven powerhouses also shouted with intense killing intent! Everyone started to attack with different magic arts from all directions, including that shapely woman. They tried to confront Xu Que's three-colored fiery lotuses directly! However, they underestimated the power of Xu Que's fiery lotuses!
When Xu Que reached the Form Synthesis Stage, his strength was also enhanced remarkably. The higher his stage was, the more powerful his magic arts would be!
Rumble!
All of a sudden, those three-colored fiery lotuses exploded in the sky at the same time. The void was distorted instantly. The earth-shaking explosion echoed all around the area! The entire sky was filled with endless magnificent flames, which devoured the Heavenly Human powerhouses directly.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Heavenly Human powerhouses fell to the ground one after another. All of them were drenched in blood and on their last legs! The air in this area was almost solidified at this time!
Xu Que's strength had totally shocked everyone in this area.
They didn't believe a cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage could be so powerful; it was extraordinary and unprecedented!
"What?" At this time, Xu Que exclaimed as he looked forward in surprise.
The flame sea in the sky was dying out. However, a figure walked out from the flames, who was that shapely female Heavenly Human cultivator! She was not blown down to the ground or even wounded. She was still so gorgeous. However, all her clothes…had been burned off!
Gasp!
All the male cultivators in the area gasped. They stared at her with wide eyes. They were almost suffocated by what they saw.
Xu Que shouted immediately, "Guys, let's enjoy this in a civilized manner, so that we could be quality fans and make a better world together!"
Boom!
At this time, a horrible momentum gushed down from the sky abruptly!
"Pervert!" The female Heavenly Human cultivator cursed angrily for she had realized her embarrassing situation. Her face had an ice-cold look. She covered her body with magic arts as she started to attack Xu Que angrily.
Xu Que said innocently, "You chose to confront my magic art directly! It is none of my business! I am a fan of yours!"
"Die!" The female Heavenly Human cultivator shouted angrily. Then, she appeared in front of Xu Que by walking through the void on a strand of holy light.
The next moment, she waved her hand and took out a scarlet dagger. The blade of the dagger was just like a cicada's wings. Then, she tried to stab Xu Que with the dagger sneakily.
"Me? Naive!" Xu Que said with a smile. Instead of dodging her attack, Xu Que approached her rapidly. Seeing that, people on the ground were shocked.
"Oh, no!"
"My fellow cultivator, step back!"
"That dagger is quite dangerous, don't block it directly!" The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion shouted in surprise.
Xu Que ignored their shouts. He dashed forward to face the woman's dagger directly!
When the dagger was about to touch his body, a pressure gushed out suddenly. A strand of golden light came out from between his eyebrows. A small golden figure, which was sitting with his legs crossed, could be seen vaguely from the golden light. Then, his body was covered by a dazzling golden hood.
Clang!
A crisp metal sound rang out. The dagger in the woman's hand fell to the ground. The female Heavenly Human cultivator turned pale immediately. Apparently, she didn't expect her most lethal killing move could be blocked in this way! More important, she was so surprised that she hit Xu Que directly before she realized what happened.
Bang!
Xu Que, who was ricocheted off by the woman, was dumbfounded instantly!
Because his face was rammed by a sea of softness. He got a feeling that his head was devoured by something! The onlookers were also dumbfounded for they didn't expect this dramatic scene. Coincidently, Xu Que's face was rammed by her towering bosom, which made countless male cultivators in this area swallow with complicated expressions.
A strand of eagerness could even be found in the eyes of some people, who wished they were the one who were hit by the woman.
"You…." The female Heavenly Human cultivator stared at Xu Que angrily with her fiery eyes!
Before she finished speaking, Xu Que denounced her, by pointing at her, "You…bastard! How dare you attack my handsome face in this filthy way?"
What?
The onlookers' eyes grew wide in surprise.
What the hell is he talking about?
How could he take his undeserved gain for granted?
At this time, Xu Que turned to the two Heavenly Human cultivators at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage.
"Judges, I strongly protest. She rammed me with balls! This is a flagrant foul. She should be sent off!" He shouted angrily, as if he was really wronged.
After saying that, he turned to the female Heavenly Human cultivator and said, "This is outrageous! Nobody fights in this way! Are you insane? Damn! I really want to die!"
…
Chapter 877: Who Attacked Me Secretly?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The vast forest fell into a dead silence at this moment. Everyone was speechless. No one had expected Xu Que's reaction would be like this!
She rammed you with balls? A flagrant foul?
Then you even said, "Damn! I really want to die!"
Buddy, this should be very exciting, right? How could you say that?
I've never seen such a shameless person as you before!
People couldn't help but twitch their lips speechlessly! Several powerhouses of the Imperial Palace were quite embarrassed.
"I get a feeling that it is a shame for us to be his partners!"
"You are not the only one who has this feeling!"
"All of us have the same feeling!"
"We should be the ones who said those words before!"
"Eh, should we also say that?"
"OK, 3-2-1, here we go!"
"Damn! I really want to die!"
They said it at the same time to express the complicated feelings in their minds.
…
Beside them, the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were also quite embarrassed. Some of them were even blushing.
After all, Xu Que was too shameless this time – taking his undeserved gain for granted!
Ordinary women would be irritated to death!
The rest of the powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe's faces also darkened!
The two powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage were so annoyed that they even wanted to kill somebody!
Xu Que had killed several hundred powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe first. Now he insulted the Heavenly Human Tribe without stopping!
"Shameless and despicable human cultivator, you are seeking death!" At this time, a female cultivator of the Heavenly Human Tribe yelled angrily. She chewed her lower lip until it bled. Predictably, the fury and hatred in her mind were extremely horrible!
However, she didn't dare to attack Xu Que again for she knew this young man at the Form Synthesis Stage was quite extraordinary and was even more powerful than she was, who was at the Crossing Calamity Stage.
"Damn! How could you have the nerve to be annoyed? My little Hongyan is several hundred times more beautiful than you are! How could I like you?"
Xu Que snorted disdainfully, "Don't ever think I'll give in if you stand in front of me naked and hit me with your boobs! Frankly speaking, I haven't even been aroused. I could just want to laugh at you!"
Wow!
All the people were in an uproar at this moment.
Xu Que's words became meaner and meaner. He was mocking the female cultivator mercilessly.
However, it really sounded reasonable. Although this female cultivator of the Heavenly Human Tribe was quite gorgeous, she was far inferior to Jiang Hongyan. It was quite normal for Xu Que to ignore her. But almost nobody believed he was not aroused!
All at once, the powerhouses of the Imperial Palace started to look at Xu Que thoughtfully.
Howl! "Little brat, really? It is quite serious if you are not aroused. I hereby kindly suggest you that you are sick and you need immediate treatment!" Buttface shouted as he stared at Xu Que in surprise.
Damn!
Xu Que was annoyed. He said angrily, "Buttface, are you stupid? 'Not aroused' is just a metaphor, don't you understand metaphors? If you continue to talk nonsense, I'll slap you to death!"
"Holy crap! Mind your words, little brat, what I said is for your own good! You are not aroused, which means you need treatment and medicine as soon as possible!" Buttface said in a recalcitrant manner.
Whoosh!
Xu Que started to stare at Buttface ferociously!
Buttface was shocked and was about to flee as he said vigilantly, "Little brat, what are you going to do?"
"Come here!" Xu Que waved his hand.
"No!" Buttface shook his head firmly!
Xu Que waved his hand again, "Come here, I'll give you something to eat!"
Buttface rejected Xu Que firmly again, "No!"
"Damn! Come here!"
"Crap! No way!" Buttface turned around and escaped immediately.
Whoosh!
Crackle! Xu Que started to chase Buttface by stepping on lightning majestically.
Damn!
The rest of the people in the area were dumbfounded.
What the hell? This guy is really going to make trouble here!
How could he start to chase his dog when he is confronting those powerhouses?
What the hell is this guy going to do?
The cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe were so annoyed that they almost spat blood! This time they had suffered great casualties. They didn't expect that a dog could be more important than them for Xu Que!
"Enough!" Finally, a powerhouse at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage yelled as he stared at Xu Que coldly. The entire area became silent instantly. Everyone was stunned. The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion also became pale.
They knew the two powerhouses at the Great Vehicle Stage were about to attack at last!
A fight between cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage and a cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage?
The gap is too big!
"Oh, no, they are totally annoyed!"
"This time Xu Que has gone too far!"
"We will be slaughtered after his death!"
"Cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage are the most powerful ones in this world, who could defeat us easily!"
They started to shake their heads and sigh in despair.
At the same time, the two powerhouses at the Great Vehicle Stage said as they stared at Xu Que coldly, "You broke the rules by killing our tribesmen. All of you will be sentenced to death! According to the rules, we have to kill you to pay for our tribesmen who were killed by you!"
Then, a cloud of majestic killing intent swept out and covered the entire area.
The air became still. The depressing and horrible momentum almost suffocated everyone in the area and froze their blood! This was the strength of cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage. Even their momentum could stun everyone. The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion became even paler.
"Oh!" Xu Que replied indifferently. Then he said, waving his hand, ��Please hold on for a moment! When I finish my business, I'll come back. Damn! Buttface, halt!"
After saying that, Xu Que continued to chase Buttface without even turning around. Buttface also continued his escape.
One man and one dog started to race each other all around the area, while totally ignoring the cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe. Everyone was shocked for they didn't expect Xu Que would dare to ignore the cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe. The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were totally shocked in disbelief.
"Is he insane?"
"How could he ignore cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage? Damn! His courage is really horrible!"
"I have a weird feeling that something bad will happen!"
They couldn't help but fix their eyes on the two powerhouses at the Great Vehicle Stage. At this time, the two powerhouses were totally annoyed and their faces were as black as ink! The killing intent gushing out from them was just like a volcano about to erupt, which could ruin everything here!
"How dare you!"
"Little bastard, you are seeking death!"
At last, the two powerhouses at the Great Vehicle Stage shouted sonorously, and their voices were deafening.
Whoosh! They leaped out and started their attack.
The sky was filled with their magnificent magic arts. They dashed toward Xu Que, flying through the void.
"It is finished!"
The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion looked deathly pale.
However, Xu Que was still chasing Buttface. It seemed he didn't realize danger was on its way.
The two powerhouses were rapidly approaching Xu Que by flying through the void. Together with a cloud of swords which were visible in the horrible blue flames, they were dashing toward Xu Que's back as fast as cannonballs.
"Hah-hah, Buttface, I got you!" Xu Que laughed suddenly at this critical moment as he raised his hand to grab Buttface's head which was so close to him. At this moment, the two powerhouses at the Great Vehicle Stage also arrived behind Xu Que and were knocked down precisely by his elbow to their heads!
Bang!
Along with a dull sound, the two powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe at the Great Vehicle Stage were knocked down and their heads were bleeding! The blue flame swords also hit Xu Que's body but failed to create even one scratch!
Swish!
Everyone in the area opened their mouths and their eyes wide with shock and disbelief at this moment.
Xu Que turned around belatedly and asked confusedly, "What happened just now? Who attacked me secretly? Who did that? Step out and admit it now, or don't blame the collateral damage of my fists!"
Chapter 878: Little Angels, Here I Come!

At this moment, the entire area was in dead silence! People couldn't help but place their hands on their chests to avoid spitting blood. All of them were totally shocked.
Someone attacked you secretly?
Collateral damage of your fists?
Buddy, could you stop making trouble? They attacked you fair and square. How could you say it is a sneak attack?
As for your fists…damn! You knocked down two powerhouses at the Great Vehicle Stage with your elbow. How could you say it was just collateral damage?
If this was collateral damage, how horrible would your formal attack be?
"This is so horrible!"
"This guy is really a devil!"
"Is he really at the Form Synthesis Stage?"
"A cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage is as powerful as a cultivator at the Great Vehicle Stage? If he reaches the Crossing Calamity Stage in the future, I guess he could even kill Celestials?"
"Celestials? This is impossible! But I am sure he will be invincible in this world when he reaches the Crossing Calamity Stage in the future!"
Many people were whispering in surprise for they had been totally shocked.
All the cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe were stunned. They had looked down upon the human cultivators before this. Even when Xu Que killed hundreds of cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe, they still thought their casualties were caused by their underestimation of Xu Que's strength as well as Xu Que's sudden attack.
However, they were not in a panic at all, for the situation was still under the control of their two seniors at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage. These two seniors could solve all kinds of troubles for them.
But what Xu Que did really surprised them!
He ignored the attack of the two powerhouses at the Great Vehicle Stage and kept chasing his dog. At the critical moment, he hit the two powerhouses at the Great Vehicle Stage in their heads with his elbow and knocked them down onto the ground.
"Who the hell…is this guy?"
"How could human cultivators be so powerful?"
"I don't believe it. He must have used some secret skills! A cultivator could never defeat cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage!"
Many cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe were shocked and couldn't accept the reality.
The two powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe at the Great Vehicle Stage who had been knocked down on the ground were also totally dumbfounded! They had never expected this human cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage would be so powerful. It had gone beyond their imaginations.
That elbow punch had completely changed their understanding of strength.
Even worse, the Sapphire Dragon Flame they used, which could burn everything down, didn't cause any damage to him!
At the thought of this, they started to feel frightened. After all, they had never met a horrible opponent like Xu Que before. Even cultivators at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage were not so horrible!
Xu Que, glancing at the cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe, said angrily, "Humph, the Exploding Heavens Faction despises this kind of sneak attack; it is so despicable! Also, why did you tickle me during your sneak attack? My elbow was so itchy just now! How obnoxious you are!"
People overhearing this twitched their lips in consternation.
The two powerhouses at the Great Vehicle Stage who remained on the ground almost spat blood after hearing his words.
Tickle you?
Damn! We rammed you with our heads! Why did you say we tickled you?
Is your elbow really so hard?
Boom!
Instantly, the two powerhouses jumped into the sky. The wounds in their heads had been healed. They said coldly as they stared at Xu Que angrily, "Don't cross the line! Don't forget you are in the territory of the Heavenly Human Tribe. The powerhouses of our tribe will give you a miserable death!"
"Wow! Is it really so horrible?" Xu Que shouted exaggeratedly. Then he said, with a sarcastic smile on his face, "Do you fear extinction?"
Extinction?
Many cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe and the two powerhouses at the Great Vehicle Stage were stunned by his words. Then they started to laugh loudly as if they had heard a hilarious joke.
"Are you going to wipe out the Heavenly Human Tribe? Hah-hah, this is really funny! Do you really think a cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage is invincible in this world?"
"Don't get the idea that you could do anything here after defeating us!"
"Stupid human cultivators, you know nothing about the strength of our tribe!"
"Even the most powerful cultivators of the Xuanzhen Continent don't dare to talk nonsense here, let alone step into the territory of our tribe!"
"Every Patriarch of our tribe could kill you easily!"
Many powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe ridiculed Xu Que.
Xu Que shook his head with a smile, "Really? Then, just tell them to confront me here! I could kill all of them with one slap!"
"Behave yourself!" Several powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe scolded him immediately.
"How dare you disrespect our Patriarchs?"
"Humph! If we hadn't activated the Heavenly Human Trial after underestimating your strength, you would have been killed a long time ago! You wouldn't have the chance to stand here!"
"Our tribesmen are certainly watching this trial now. You are being closely watched by them!"
"When the Heavenly Human Trial is finished, all of you will die miserably!"
The powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe said ferociously and were very anxious to eat Xu Que alive!
Their tribe was proud and arrogant. They looked down upon all other races, including human beings. For them, all the rest of the races were lower animals like ants.
But now Xu Que, a human cultivator,had caused great casualties in their tribe and ridiculed them, which totally annoyed them.
Even worse, they realized they could do nothing but get angry.
The two powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe at the Great Vehicle Stage didn't dare to attack Xu Que now. They thought they would be defeated or even killed by Xu Que.
Therefore, they had to scare Xu Que with their Patriarchs!
Moreover, they were quite confident about the strength of their tribe. When the Heavenly Human Trial was finished, their Patriarchs would definitely kill Xu Que to avenge them!
"Heh-heh!" Suddenly, Xu Que started to smile coldly as he shook his head. He was standing in the sky contentedly with his hands behind his back as his clothes were whirling about in the wind.
Many powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe couldn't help but frown at Xu Que!
The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace and the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion looked up with puzzlement.
Why is he laughing?
Is he confident about fighting the Patriarchs of the Heavenly Human Tribe?
According to the long history of the Heavenly Human Tribe, their Patriarchs might be as powerful as the Emperor!
"Alas, the Heavenly Human Tribe is composed of a bunch of foolish dogs! I think it is necessary to analyze your current situation for you!" At this time, Xu Que said with a smile as he looked at the cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe, "You said your Patriarch and tribe are very powerful, right?"
"Humph! Exactly!" A powerhouse of the Heavenly Human Tribe at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage snorted with a proud look on his face.
Xu Que said with a smile as he shook his head, "OK, maybe the Heavenly Human Tribe is powerful as you said, but it is none of my business! Now you can't leave here, and they can't enter this place. Why are you still so arrogant in front of me? Tell me, why are you so arrogant?"
Swish!
His words stunned the cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe immediately.
Xu Que's words awakened in them the fact that nobody could save them, no matter how powerful their tribe was!
Once the Heavenly Human Trial was commenced, nobody could stop it until it ended automatically one month later. They had suffered serious casualties during the first day. How could they hold on till the end of one month?
"What…are you going to do?" The powerhouse of the Heavenly Human Tribe at Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage asked vigilantly. According to his voice, he was a little bit nervous. "I warn you that you will die miserably in one month if you kill us now!"
Puff!
Xu Que said with an embarrassed smile, "Come on! According to your words, I will die anyway. Why don't I take all of you with me? Heh-heh, this is so exciting! OK, no more words, little angels, here I come!"
Boom!
Immediately, Xu Que's body was covered by a golden light. Dazzling golden light was concentrated between his eyes, which made him look like a deity. Then he dashed toward those cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe rapidly stepping on lightning.
Chapter 879: My Name Is Xu Que! What's Up?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"No, stop!"
Instantly, the two powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe at the Great Vehicle Stage shouted in surprise and their expressions changed abruptly.
They hadn't been taking Xu Que seriously. They definitely didn't expect that Xu Que would really dare to kill them. It threw them into a panic.
"Stop? That's impossible! Even Qin Wei who had reached the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage was almost defeated by me. How could I put up with the impertinence of a group of rubbishy cultivators like you?" Xu Que smiled coldly.
The golden light between his eyebrows had already covered almost his whole body. This was the advantage of merging with the Taoist Body. With the reinforcement of the Taoist Body, the little golden figure between his eyebrows could be used as another Dantian, which could enhance his strength remarkably!
Before this, he pretended to chase Buttface. Actually he was enhancing his strength with the support of his Taoist Body! In this way, he could ignore their blue flames and even knock them down with an elbow punch easily.
At this moment, he had fully activated the strength of his Taoist Body, so that he could start a slaughter!
Although he had reached Level 4 of the Form Synthesis Stage, his opponents included cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage, who were two stages higher than he was! Xu Que could gain the upper hand in the combat easily. However, it was still quite difficult to kill all of his opponents. Therefore, he had to do his utmost!
Not only the strength of his Taoist Body was activated, even the Genuine Secret of "All" of the Nine Secrets and the Soaring Dragon's Nine Transformations were also activated!
Boom!
Instantly, Xu Que's moment became extremely majestic! He waved his hand to activate the Killer Sword and the Killer Book to enhance his strength 30 times, which would bring his strength to a new height!
At this moment, he felt he was…invincible in this world!
At the same time, everyone in the area was totally dumbfounded. Cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage or the Great Vehicle Stage who had lived hundreds or even thousands of years had never seen horrible magic arts like this.
How could he enhance his strength to such a height so fast?
"What…are these magic arts?"
"Impossible! How could these magic arts exist in this world?"
"Before this, his strength was strong enough. How could he enhance it remarkably again…?"
"It is finished! We are doomed!" The two powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe at the Great Vehicle Stage were as pale as ghosts for they lost their confidence. The rest of the powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe were also thrown into a panic!
At this moment, the arrogance that had been cultivated in their minds since childhood had been totally smashed! These pretentious cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe had been indoctrinated since childhood that the Heavenly Human Tribe was the noblest race among all races. All of them were arrogant and looked down upon all the rest of the races.
However, now the concept that had been cultivated since their childhood had been broken by Xu Que cruelly! Now they knew there was someone better!
This human cultivator was so horribly powerful that he was almost invincible to all races!
The cultivators of the Imperial Palace and the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were also totally dumbfounded at this moment.
At the same time, Xu Que started to look at the cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe coldly. "Your arrogance didn't offend me. However, you treated me as a prey and wanted to hunt me down, so you should also be prepared to become prey!"
Swish!
He shouted seriously as he stood in the void, "From now on, the real Heavenly Human Trial is commenced! However, none of you will escape!"
Boom!
Instantly, Xu Que dashed out like a cannonball as he stepped on lightning, which created ripples in the void.
The two powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe at the Great Vehicle Stage bore the brunt of his attack first because they had started a horrible fight with Xu Que.
Rumble!
Xu Que's fist was turned into a giant golden fist in the void, which descended from the sky abruptly. Then he started to use his magic arts with his fingers, which were wrapped in Mystical Fires.
Many three-colored Fiery Lotuses with horrible energy appeared in front of him.
The powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe were shocked instantly. The two powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe at the Great Vehicle Stage were as pale as ghosts. They shouted angrily as they threw out countless magic arts to defend themselves, "If you kill us, you will become a sworn enemy of our tribe!"
"Heh, don't worry, after your death, if your tribesmen mess with me, I'll kill all of them!" Xu Que smiled as he activated all his magic arts without hesitation!
Rumble!
Instantly, the King of Tough-Acting Fist smashed down and the three-colored Fiery Lotuses exploded.
The entire sky was filled with dazzling light. A destructive and earthshaking energy shook the void.
The two powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe at the Great Vehicle Stage and dozens of cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe near them were covered by the explosion completely.
"Ah!"
A lot of screams of agony could be heard.
A powerhouse at the Great Vehicle Stage yelled angrily, "If you kill us today, the Heavenly Human Tribe will slaughter all of you one month from now!"
"I'll be right here waiting for them!" Xu Que sneered, as he continued to throw magic arts out!
"Tell me your name!" The powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe shouted angrily.
"My name is Xu Que, what's up?" Xu Que smiled as he threw out the last King of Tough-Acting Fist!
Boom!
This horrible strike stood for Xu Que's maximum strength, which could destroy everything!
The violent force and the explosion of the three-colored Fiery Lotuses tore the void open directly and created tremendous tearing force!
"Ah!"
"Xu Que, our tribe's Patriarchs will kill you and…."
Before finishing their words, many powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe exploded in the sky into clouds of blood mist!
The entire combat only lasted for several seconds! Xu Que's strength was unbelievably strong!
Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in acting tough successfully. The reward is 10,000 Acting Tough Points!"
Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in killing a powerhouse at the Great Vehicle Stage for the first time. The reward is a Big Mystery Gift Bag!"
Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in killing a powerhouse at the Great Vehicle Stage. The reward is 100,000,000 Acting Tough Points!"
Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in killing a powerhouse at the Great Vehicle Stage. The reward is 100,000,000 Acting Tough Points!"
Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in upgrading successfully. The current stage is Level 5 of the Form Synthesis Stage!"
Ding!….
…
Many warning tones of the System were echoing in Xu Que's mind. At this moment, Xu Que was standing in the sky with his hands behind his back. His black eyes were deep and calm and his clothes were whirling about in the wind!
All the cultivators of the Imperial Palace and the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were stunned by this scene. In their eyes, Xu Que was just like a deity or a horrible devil!
The scene they had just witnessed where Xu Que killed so many cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage and the Great Vehicle Stage kept flashing in their minds! It seemed as if his destructive attack could even destroy the entire world! Nobody in this world could rival him!
Click!
A crisp sound suddenly could be heard!
Buttface pressed down the play button on his tape recorder. Then the passionate and heroic song started echoing around the area:
"Being invincible is so, so lonely!
"Being invincible is so, so empty!
"Stand on the peak alone…."
