      I am the best when it comes to taking divergent paths. With just a flip of my hand, I shall take the path less commonly travelled. I search far and wide, only to find myself unbeatable and unrivaled. So now I ask, who else can match my awesomeness? Acting tough is second nature to me and I am a lone wolf. The road is long and winding but I shan’t feel lonely as long as I am able to act tough! Life and death bore me and I do whatever I deem fit. “Young man, way back when I started acting tough, you were still learning how to put on your underpants!” Xu Que thus decided to take the path of acting tough. He decided to act tough every single god-damned day. If he wasn’t acting tough, he was scheming for the best way to act tough! 最强反套路系统

     801 Who The Hell Did This?

      Ten days later, more than 100 campsites of the Heaven Orc Tribe were in a total mess. The curse letter, which had started as a joke, had created a horrible atmosphere throughout the campsites.

     After all, in the World of cultivators, there was a kind of magic art at work creating the curse. It was said that some soldiers in the campsite who had just lost their parents were trying to discover who had sent out the curse letters. It was also said that some soldiers had realized their dreams, so they were giving a thousand thanks to the curse letter and thought it was an exciting experience.

     In the front line area, the authenticity of almost all of this hearsay was being confirmed. Of course, most of it was "confirmed" by Xu Que, who always appeared in some crowded place to propagate the effect of the curse letters. One day, he complained tearfully in front of a lot of soldiers that his family had met with misfortune, and that even his dog had been killed by others, after he tore up the curse letter.

     The next day, he would appear in another campsite to flaunt his good luck after sending a curse letter by holding Jiang Hongyan in his arms. In this way, he created a baneful influence. The soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe were in no mood for training. All of them were considering the recipient of their next curse letter, or worrying about their families after tearing the curse letter into pieces. Some soldiers who had sent the curse letters to others were looking forward to the arrival of their beloved girls!

     The morale in all the campsites of the Heaven Orc Tribe was quite low. At last, the generals couldn't sit quietly anymore. Even the Commander in Chief at the Great Vehicle Stage was startled by this situation.

     "No, we have to stop this.Otherwise, we will be defeated easily!" The Commander in Chief ordered all the generals to discipline their soldiers. The generals had to obey his order by searching the campsites and issuing an order: "Possession of curse letters is strictly prohibited. Violations will be severely punished!"

     However, the quantity of the curse letters in the campsites was already huge! In each campsite, almost two-thirds of the soldiers were arrested and punished severely. Therefore, the defense of the front line area became weak because of the shorthanded patrols.

     "Hongyan, it's time! We will leave tonight!" Xu Que asked Jiang Hongyan to go with him to a campsite near the front line. During this period, he had scoped out the time and path of all patrols. Now the opportunity had presented itself. It was the perfect time for them to leave.

     That night, they went to the front line and pretended to idle around. They were spotted by a patrol immediately. "You two, stop! We don't have enough soldiers. You should go with us!" The team leader of the patrol shouted.

     "Yes, sir!" Xu Que replied resentfully as he walked toward the patrol together with Jiang Hongyan. Actually, he was laughing to himself. To join a patrol was the best way to approach the restrictive spells at the front line.

     "Buddy, don't be resentful! You should blame those curse letters that were being circulated recently. The Commander in Chief was quite angry about this situation. The generals had to punish their soldiers severely, which caused this short-handed situation!" The team leader consoled Xu Que after noticing his resentful expression.

     Xu Que nodded his head and said, spitting strenuously on the ground, "Damn! If I knew who sent those curse letters at the very beginning, I would beat him to death!"

     "Hey, buddy, don't talk nonsense! That curse is quite weird. If you have received them, I suggest you also copy them and send them out. You might be beaten up by the generals at most, but it is much better than misfortune in your family!" Someone reminded him in a low voice.

     Xu Que shouted angrily, patting his chest, "I fear nothing in this world! I will even beat that Buttface of the Exploding Heavens Faction, let alone that curse letter!"

     The rest of the soldiers of the patrol were surprised by his words, "Buddy, you are awesome!"

     Xu Que waved his hand, "Hey, you flatter me!"

     Jiang Hongyan, who was standing beside Xu Que, was totally amused by Xu Que's actions.

     Rumble!

     All of a sudden, a big bang came from the sky above the vast front line. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. It seemed the void was almost torn apart!

     "Holy shit! What happened?" Xu Que was surprised. Could it be that the curse is for real? I've just finished acting tough and someone tries to strike me with lightning and thunder!

     "What the hell? Buddy, where is your courage? This is a battlefield. The Void Disintegration is quite normal. Why are you so flustered?" One soldier in the patrol said disdainfully. His words reminded Xu Que of what was going on and he kept his mouth shut.

     Jiang Hongyan had told him the Immortal Hall shouldn't have landed in this place. The reason was the Void Disintegration caused by the bloody battles between the cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage or even at the Great Vehicle Stage in this battlefield. They were just in the Void Passage at this position at that time. Although the battle was ended temporarily, the cracked void hadn't been healed yet. Therefore, the lightning and thunder that appeared suddenly in this area were quite normal. Xu Que looked at the void. Some dust was rolled up by the wild wind and disappeared in the void instantly.

     "That's enough. Let's go out on patrol now. We shall guard this area for at least two nights!" The team leader of the patrol shouted impatiently at this time. The patrol moved out again.

     Then, Xu Que winked at Jiang Hongyan.

     Whoosh!

     The next moment, they launched an attack at the same time. Jiang Hongyan waved her hand. Several towering soldiers in front of her were killed instantly by strands of golden light. Flop! Their dead bodies toppled down to the ground.

     Xu Que's King of Tough-Acting Fist was too noisy. He didn't dare to use it. Therefore, he had to knock the soldiers unconscious with the black stick, which was quite efficient.

     In several seconds, they wiped out the patrol easily without being noticed by others. Now, this area was occupied by them temporarily.

     "What should we do to deal with those restrictive spells?" Jiang Hongyan asked as she looked at Xu Que. Now, they could go back to mankind's territory if they could break these spells without being discovered by other patrols. But these restrictive spells were quite powerful. Even cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage couldn't break them quietly. The two of them could never get through this area easily.

     "I studied these spells. If we fly over them without using our True Core Strength, we won't trigger any restrictive spells!" Xu Que smiled as he activated the System interface.

     Jiang Hongyan was surprised. How could we fly over it without using our True Core Strength?

     How could this be?

     Soon, she recalled Xu Que used to lead troops to land from the sky by flying through a valley in the Holy Mountain of Snow City without using his True Core Strength. At that time, she, who was in the Holy Ground, was also shocked.

     Whoosh!

     At this time, Xu Que purchased a Qunjet from the System Store. The Qunjet was produced by S.H.I.E.L.D. It was a fast stealth fighter. It couldn't be detected by radar, and could even be totally invisible! In such circumstances, Xu Que preferred to use some high-tech items to solve his problems.

     "Follow me, little girl. Let Brother Xu Que take you flying!" Xu Que held Jiang Hongyan's hand in his hand with a smile. Jiang Hongyan was shocked by this gigantic jet fighter. But she trusted Xu Que and so she stepped into it curiously.

     Whoosh!

     The next moment, the cabin door was closed. Xu Que sat in the pilot's seat. Then, he pressed the stealth button as he activated the engine of the jet fighter. The entire Qunjet disappeared on the spot. Then, it sprang into the air and dashed toward the horizon!

     …

     Meanwhile, outside the Celestial Burial Valley in the East Continent, a man and a dog were wandering in puzzlement.

     "Buttface, what do you think of this?"

     "Shut up! Duan Jiude, if you continue to show no respect for your Patriarch, I will smash you with my palm! Damn! That little brat was so cunning. He left us alone, but we have to perform secluded cultivation in the Mystery Land of the South Continent!"

     "Nonsense! Anyway, my Master could ensure the safety of those girls. Now we should find a way to have fun!"

     "What could we do? I was told that Xu Que appeared in this place dozens of days ago. But he didn't show up till now. Even that bronze hall also disappeared!" Buttface said out of boredom.

     Whoosh!

     Suddenly, several black scraps of paper fell down from the sky. The scraps drifted away with the wind, but one scrap landed in front of Buttface and Duan Jiude.

     "What? This black scrap of paper is so weird! Could it be a miraculous treasure? Hah-hah-hah! See, Duan Jiude, I've found a treasure!" Buttface shouted in joy as he grabbed that scrap of paper.

     "Hey, don't act shamelessly! You should share it with me!"

     Duan Jiude moved closed and started to read the content of that scrap of paper.

     "I am Buttface of the Exploding Heavens Faction. Tens of thousands of years ago, I died in a great battle between celestials and devils.…"

     "Holy shit!"

     "Holy shit! My God!"

     Duan Jiude and Buttface were dumbfounded by what they saw. Buttface was totally disgusted by the content as if he had eaten some excrement.

     A curse letter?

     Who the hell did this?

     802 A Man Should Show Some Initiative!

      In the Xuanzhen Continent, the battlefield between mankind and the Heaven Orc Tribe stretched for hundreds of thousands of miles. Most of the combat between mankind and the Heaven Orc Tribe happened in this area, which, therefore, was full of uncollected dead bodies and the repulsive smell of blood!

     The Qunjet driven by Xu Que, which carried Jiang Hongyan as well, flew over this area. After three days and three nights, they finally left the territory of the Heaven Orc Tribe successfully without triggering any restrictive spells. Looking at the mutilated bodies, Xu Que couldn't help but shake his head.

     Conflicts were unavoidable in places where there were living creatures. Conflicts could occur between sects, places, and races, which were endless! Conflicts occurred in the Five Elements Mountain, the Four Continents, and even in this Xuanzhen Continent!

     "We'll arrive at the front line of mankind's territory soon. We should disguise ourselves first!" Jiang Hongyan said in a low voice as she looked forward. Xu Que nodded. A lot of generals in the Xuanzhen Continent knew Jiang Hongyan because of her noble identity. If Jiang Hongyan showed up in her original appearance, her father would definitely be alerted.

     Whoosh!

     Without any hesitation, Xu Que took out a new Human-skinned Mask and changed its facial appearance. Jiang Hongyan received the mask and said with a smile, "You can always fabricate these things, which are weird but quite useful!"

     "Of course! Our Exploding Heavens Faction is omnipotent! I can even give you a star if you ask for one!" Xu Que said with a laugh.

     Jiang Hongyan smiled as she put on the mask. Her face was changed instantly. Although her new face was not as beautiful as her original one, her graceful temperament couldn't be covered up.

     "Wow, little girl, you are really a born beauty! You are still so charming even after changing your face!" Xu Que said with a smile.

     Jiang Hongyan shook her head, "Let's talk about business first. The things we are going to face are quite dangerous!"

     Hearing that, Xu Que couldn't help but stop smiling. This time, he planned to seize the God-realization Tree, so that they could stop Jiang Hongyan's father from obtaining the God-realization Fruit from the tree. After all, a strand of Jiang Hongyan's soul was saved in that tree, which they had to take back!

     However, Jiang Hongyan's father was formidably powerful. He had reached the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage, which was only one step away from becoming a celestial! Xu Que would be defeated by Jiang Hongyan's father easily, even if he fought in full force. Therefore, Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan had to think of another plan.

     "What are you going to do?" Xu Que asked.

     He knew nothing about the Xuanzhen Continent. Moreover, at present, Jiang Hongyan was as powerful as he. Therefore, he had to inquire about Jiang Hongyan's plan first, so that he could figure out how powerful the enemy was he was going to confront.

     Jiang Hongyan looked at Xu Que quietly for a while. Then, she said in a low voice, "You need around 30 days to cover the journey from the front line to the Imperial Palace. I will give you the map and the pass permit of the Imperial Palace. When you arrive, I will lure him away. After seizing the God-realization Tree, you should retreat immediately and find an opportunity to reunite with me!"

     "Your plan won't work!" Xu Que shook his head immediately. "Let's switch our tasks. I will lure your father away. You can be responsible for seizing the God-realization Tree. Don't forget I have the Divine Escape Spell, which could let me escape at any time!"

     "No, according to his style, he will never confront you personally. In addition, he has numerous powerful underlings, including some powerhouses at the Great Vehicle Stage. Only I could lure him away!" Jiang Hongyan said seriously.

     However, Xu Que still shook his head. At this time, he would never allow Jiang Hongyan to take this risk. After all, they were facing a cultivator at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage. If something bad happened to Jiang Hongyan, the God-realization Tree would be useless to him!

     If he lost Jiang Hongyan at last, this plan was definitely a losing trade!

     "Forget it, let's just proceed without a plan. We go back to mankind's territory first and make a plan according to the actual situation, OK?" Xu Que asked.

     After a short consideration, Jiang Hongyan nodded her head with a smile, "OK!"

     At last, after five days' flying, they arrived at mankind's front line successfully!

     Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan restored their human appearance. After some disguise, they managed to go through the front line campsites and arrived at an ancient city, which was very close to the frontline. This ancient city was as large as those in the four continents, but the cultivators in this city were much more powerful than cultivators in any ancient city of the four continents.

     When they entered the city, Xu Que discovered that all the guards of the city had at least reached the summit of the Void Training Stage, who would be treated as Holy Sons or Holy Virgins in the four continents. As for the cultivators in this city, it was just like dragons and fishes jumbled together. They could see cultivators and demonic beasts that disguised themselves as humans everywhere.

     Among them, there were cultivators at the Infant Transformation Stage, Void Training Stage, and Form Synthesis Stage. Even some cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage could be found. But Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan didn't find any cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage in this city.

     "This ancient city is very close to the front line, so it is a little bit chaotic. Let's keep a low profile. Tomorrow morning, we will leave for the Imperial Palace by taking the teleportation device!" Jiang Hongyan reminded Xu Que in a low voice to stop him from making any trouble.

     Xu Que raised his eyebrows and said, smiling, "Don't worry. I am a humble man! By the way, Hongyan, there are so many cultivators in this city. Maybe we can't find a room in the hotels easily. We can share one room tonight, or other cultivators have to spend the night in the streets!"

     Hearing that, Jiang Hongyan stopped walking for a while. She fixed her beautiful eyes on Xu Que quietly. But Xu Que had upgraded his shamelessness. He continued to have an eye contact with Jiang Hongyan without missing a beat. At last, Jiang Hongyan shook her head with a faint smile, "Let's go, if we don't seize the moment, we will have to spend the night in the streets!"

     What?

     Does this mean she agrees to share a room with me?

     Xu Que's eyes lit up and he started to follow Jiang Hongyan excitedly. In a short while, they found a hotel. The waiter told them a lot of rooms were available at this moment. Xu Que placed several Spirit Stones on the desk and said loudly, "We only need the best room of your hotel! Spring has come; leave the rest of the rooms to those who need them!"

     Standing beside Xu Que, Jiang Hongyan said nothing with a faint smile. After that, they went upstairs, following the waiter.

     Creak!

     After closing the door, Xu Que jumped on the bed immediately and made a coquettish pose. Then, he said to Jiang Hongyan with a smile as he patted the bed, "Hongyan, it's late, let's sleep."

     Jiang Hongyan replied with a faint smile, "I only need a short while to cultivate!"

     After saying that, she sat down on the futon in the middle of the room, crossing her legs. Then, she closed her beautiful eyes and started her cultivation.

     Xu Que was immediately frustrated. As a matter of fact, cultivators didn't need to sleep. They could refresh their spirits and strength through cultivation, which was even more efficient than sleeping. But Xu Que didn't want to give up easily! It was so difficult for him to get an opportunity to stay with Jiang Hongyan alone!

     Also, according to the third principle of the Exploding Heavens Faction, if a man didn't do something when he shared a room with a woman, there was no difference between this man and a salted fish!

     No, I can't give up so easily! A man should show some initiative!

     At the thought of this, Xu Que sat up on the bed and asked, "Hongyan, do you want to gang up with me?"

     803 It Is Time To Upgrade With Plug-Ins!

      "What?" Jiang Hongyan was confused by Xu Que's words. Apparently, she didn't understand what he meant.

     Xu Que had taken this opportunity to lie on his stomach on the bed. Then he said tenderly, "I have a mean backache. Do you think you could massage it for me?"

     Are you kidding? Do you really think I am going to lie down with you? It is just a trick!

     "You have a backache?" Jiang Hongyan said with surprise. She waved her hand firmly.

     Whoosh!

     All of a sudden, a strand of light landed on Xu Que's waist with healing strength and went through his tendons and veins. It felt so comforting! But this was not what Xu Que needed. His back was more powerful than most people's. How could he have a backache?

     Jiang Hongyan closed her eyes and started her cultivation again.

     "Ouch, Hongyan, I have a toothache.Could you check my teeth for me please?" Xu Que shouted.

     Whoosh!

     Instantly, a strand of light dashed toward Xu Que's mouth.

     Xu Que's eyes widened in surprise and he continued, "Hongyan, my feet hurt!"

     Whoosh!

     Light dashed toward his feet.

     "Hongyan, my hands hurt!"

     Whoosh!

     Light dashed toward his hands.

     "Hongyan, my hips hurt!"

     Whoosh!

     Light dashed toward his hips.

     "Humph!" Xu Que couldn't stand it anymore. He jumped down from the bed and shouted, "Hongyan, my inner thighs hurt!"

     Whoosh!

     A strand of light gushed out from Jiang Hongyan's hand and was about to fly to his inner thighs.

     Xu Que was surprised and jumped away immediately. Then, he said in shock, "Holy crap, little girl, your actions are dangerous! If that organ is wounded, you will be a grass widow in the future!"

     At this time, Jiang Hongyan opened her eyes and said with a smile as she looked at Xu Que, "That's enough fooling around. You should have a rest now. Tomorrow, we will leave in the morning. This place is not safe!"

     "No!" Xu Que pursed his lips like a naughty little boy.

     Jiang Hongyan said embarrassedly, "Why?"

     "I'm afraid of the darkness. I don't dare to sleep alone!" Xu Que rolled his eyes and started to talk nonsense.

     Jiang Hongyan still sat there gracefully and replied with a faint smile, "The light is on; it is not dark here!"

     "Even if it is not dark, I still don't dare to sleep alone!" Xu Que continued to say resolutely. "I want to sleep with you!"

     Jiang Hongyan was stunned as if she didn't expect Xu Que could be so direct. After a short consideration, she nodded with a smile, "OK!" She stood up and walked toward the bed gracefully.

     Xu Que was dumbfounded. He never expected that Jiang Hongyan would agree to sleep with him!

     No, this is not like her! Is she going to have sex with me before parting with me?

     She is going to drain me. When I am exhausted and fall asleep, she will leave for the Imperial Palace!

     Wow! She is so sinister! I was almost fooled by her!

     At the thought of this, Xu Que's body trembled a bit. He said resolutely, "Forget it, you don't need to sleep with me!"

     Jiang Hongyan asked with a faint smile, "What happened?"

     "You are conspiring against me!" Xu Que said, pursing his lips.

     Jiang Hongyan was stunned and asked in surprise, "Did you really sense that?"

     Holy shit! She really was conspiring!

     Xu Que was shocked.

     Boom!

     Suddenly, several strands of golden light gushed out from Jiang Hongyan's slim hands toward the hotel room's window and created a big bang. Then they could see several figures headed for the window.

     Several flustered voices came in from outside the window:

     "Oh, no! We've been discovered! We must retreat!" The figures screamed.

     "Damn! My body has been frozen! I cannot move." One of the figures outside the window complained.

     "Holy Senior, please forgive us! We are not trying to offend you! His Majesty asked us to escort you back!"

     Xu Que was surprised.

     Since when did these people start to hide outside the window?

     Why didn't I sense them?

     Wait! Could it be that Jiang Hongyan has sensed them for a long time. Is that why she uttered those words just now?

     At the thought of this, Xu Que realized what had happened. His face turned dark with rage because he knew that the people outside their window had been sent by the Emperor of the Xuanzhen Continent. This meant Jiang Hongyan and he had already been compromised! Maybe they had been spotted when they stepped into the territory of mankind!

     Now, the Emperor had only sent several cultivators at the Void Training Stage to challenge them, which meant the Emperor was quite confident and didn't worry that his intention would be discovered by Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan. The Emperor only sent these people as a warning.

     "I have something urgent to deal with. You go back and tell the Emperor that I will return to the palace in a few days!" Jiang Hongyan said calmly.

     Those people replied hurriedly, "As you wish!"

     Whoosh!

     Jiang Hongyan waved her hand gently and cancelled the restrictive magic on their bodies.

     "Wait!" Suddenly, Xu Que reached out his hand abruptly. The void trembled from his magnificent strength, which again detained those people forcefully. Jiang Hongyan couldn't help but look at Xu Que in puzzlement.

     Xu Que said with a cold smile as he looked at the figures outside the window, "Nobody should act tough in front of me in this way! He is just a cultivator at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage! In front of the Exploding Heavens Faction, he is just an ant! When he decided to send his people here, he should be prepared for the death of his people!"

     After saying that, he clenched his fist in the air. The void was distorted by his invisible but horrible strength!

     Bang!

     The next moment, several dull sounds came in from outside the window. The four intruders had been exploded into blood mists!

     "Ah! Holy Senior, please spare my life! Senior, please spare me!" The only survivor outside the window started to beg for mercy.

     "Go back and tell your so-called Emperor, if he wants to find Jiang Hongyan, he should come here in person! By the way, tell him my name is Xu Que of the Exploding Heavens Faction!" Xu Que said as he blew away the survivor by reaching out his palm!

     After that, the room became quiet again.

     Jiang Hongyan said worriedly as she looked at Xu Que, "You will annoy him by doing this, which could bring you unnecessary troubles!"

     "Heh! I've never worried about troubles!" Xu Que smiled and said as he looked at the night sky. "You told me he has numerous powerful underlings. He sent several cultivators at the Void Training Stage here to show us his intention deliberately!"

     After saying that, Xu Que's voice became cold, "Since he doesn't mind annoying me, I will send him a clear message that I also don't mind annoying him!"

     "But.…" Jiang Hongyan was about to say something.

     "Stop saying but! From now on, let me handle this! A powerhouse at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage will never scare me away. If I want, I will even defeat a real celestial!" Xu Que said overbearingly. Then, he held Jiang Hongyan's hand in his hands and said seriously, "Please trust me this time, and don't leave me alone again!"

     Jiang Hongyan was shocked a bit. After looking at Xu Que for a while, she nodded her head and said resolutely, "OK!"

     "OK, good girl!" Xu Que smiled and rubbed Jiang Hongyan's head with his hand.

     Jiang Hongyan was stunned by this action.This action might work for some young girls. But it would embarrass Jiang Hongyan if he used it on her. However, this move was proven more or less effective for not only young girls but also a female powerhouse! No matter how embarrassed Jiang Hongyan was, she couldn't help but blush!

     "What should we do now? I guess he is tracking me through my soul in that God-realization Tree. We can never get out of his Soul Strength wherever we go!" Jiang Hongyan said at this moment.

     Since they were discovered although they disguised, it meant they could never hide from the Emperor. And they couldn't go back to the territory of the Heaven Orc Tribe again!

     "This is a serious problem, but we can solve it!" Xu Que said seriously.

     Jiang Hongyan was surprised, "Do you have a plan?"

     "Yes, the only method now is to…reach the Form Synthesis Stage!" Xu Que said as he took out an ancient book, which was the Anonymous Magic Art he used to comprehend his Taoist Connotation.

     The Form Synthesis Stage?

     Jiang Hongyan was puzzled.

     Xu Que had just reached Level 3 of the Void Training Stage. How could he reach the Form Synthesis Stage in such a short time? Moreover, even if he managed to reach the Form Synthesis Stage, he would still be defeated by a cultivator at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage easily.

     "Let's go back to the battlefield!" Xu Que said at this time.

     Before Jiang Hongyan had time to figure out the meaning of his words, he put his hand on Jiang Hongyan's waist and jumped out of the hotel together with her.

     Under the bright moonlight, a strand of a smile appeared on Xu Que's handsome face.

     It is time to upgrade with plug-ins!

     804 Come And Beat Me Up If You Are Not Cowards!

      Two figures in the night sky were dashing toward the front line!

     Looking at Xu Que, Jiang Hongyan asked in a calm, low voice, "Are we going back to the territory of the Heaven Orc Tribe?"

     "No! We can't solve a problem by evading it. We have to solve it sooner or later!" Xu Que said with a faint smile.

     "Then, what is your plan at the front line?" Jiang Hongyan was stunned, for she thought Xu Que planned to perform the secluded cultivation by hiding in the campsite of the Heaven Orc Tribe. But Xu Que's reply surprised her.

     "I am going to reach the Form Synthesis Stage in sanguinary combat!" Xu Que replied with a smile.

     Jiang Hongyan didn't understand Xu Que's words. At this time, Xu Que's eyes had become more determined than ever. A smile appeared on his lips. The biggest difference between him and the rest of the cultivators in this world was his System! The System was indeed an invincible plug-in. He could even upgrade it through killing his enemies.

     In the past, Xu Que didn't have the Taoist Connotation. He upgraded himself through killing many people, which accumulated too much Terrifying Spiritual Qi for him and stopped him from reaching the Void Training Stage. Then, he transferred all his Terrifying Spiritual Qi and cultivation achievements to his Taoist Body to restart his cultivation from zero. At last, he managed to comprehend his own Taoist Connotation.

     Now, his Taoist Connotation was quite powerful. He didn't need to worry that his Taoist Connotation could be devoured by the Terrifying Spiritual Qi caused by killing.

     However, he was a man who always wanted to enjoy himself. If it was unnecessary or his life was not endangered, he would never upgrade himself through killing people. Just like a powerhouse who knew he had reached the summit of cultivation and nobody could hurt him easily, he wouldn't spend most of his time to enhance his strength.

     But now, his lifestyle was messed up when he arrived at the Xuanzhen Continent together with Jiang Hongyan. In this continent where cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage were everywhere, Xu Que felt he had to reach the Form Synthesis Stage because of the force of circumstances.

     Therefore, the best way was to join the army of mankind and fight the Heaven Orc Tribe fair and square. In this way, he could accumulate enough experience for his upgrade. And, at the last, he could render that Emperor a great surprise!

     Whoosh!

     The next morning, Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan arrived at the front line of the army of mankind! With Human-skinned Masks on their faces, they enrolled themselves in the army and became ordinary soldiers of mankind!

     In the world of cultivators, cultivators were always selfish! If it was not profitable, most cultivators didn't want to defend their country by fighting with their enemies. Cultivators pursued free and carefree lives and didn't care who controlled their country. Anyway, they could always find fortune and opportunities in this vast world.

     Therefore, once a war broke out, the Imperial Palace would recruit soldiers with generous rewards.

     …

     The front line campsite was full of soldiers. War was raging, so the campsite was quite busy. Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan didn't attract too much attention when they enrolled themselves. A lot of cultivators joined the army to earn rewards and official titles with battle achievements every day.

     "I need your names and the name of your sects!" A old veteran, with a shabby jade plate in his hand, said, looking at Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan impatiently in front of the enrollment station.

     Xu Que replied with a smile, "I am Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction, and my nickname is the Lethal Scholar!"

     The veteran rolled his eyes as he carved something on the jade plate. Then he murmured, "Nobody cares about your nickname! You might get killed as soon as you step onto the battlefield!"

     After saying that, he threw the jade plate to Xu Que. Then, he turned to Jiang Hongyan and asked, "What about you, girl?"

     Jiang Hongyan replied with a smile as she looked at Xu Que, "I am Hongyan of the Exploding Heavens Faction!"

     "The Exploding Heavens Faction again?"

     The veteran frowned as if he had never heard of this sect before. He didn't waste his time thinking about it. After carving the sect and name on the jade plate, he threw the plate to Jiang Hongyan and said impatiently, "OK, you can get your armor with this ID plate. Then, you can enter the battlefield!"

     "OK!" Xu Que smiled. Then he turned around and was about to leave, holding Jiang Hongyan's hand.

     At this time, the old veteran added, "Young people, don't be too greedy for battle achievements. Try to kill those weak Orc soldiers in the battlefield. In this way, you can't earn too much credits, but it is better than being killed. If you can survive the battle, don't forget to check your credits at the Soldier and Officer Rank List, and trade the things or official titles you want with your credits!"

     "OK, thanks!" Xu Que turned around and nodded at the veteran.

     Jiang Hongyan also nodded her head to express her gratitude with a faint smile.

     Till now, she didn't know Xu Que's plan. A lot of people upgraded themselves on the battlefield, but she had never heard of a person who managed to reach the Form Synthesis Stage from Level 3 of the Void Training Stage.

     However, since Xu Que had made up his mind, she wouldn't doubt him. After all…this was a young man who had created numerous miracles! If he said he could do it, he would definitely make it happen!

     What she could do was to support him. When he succeeded, she could stay with him and enjoy the happy time. If he failed, she could still stay with him. That was enough!

     "Little girl, let's go!" Xu Que looked at Jiang Hongyan. He had two sets of armors and two swords in his hands.

     Jiang Hongyan nodded her head gently. Then, she waved her slim hand and two soldier armors flew into the sky. The next moment, their bodies had been wrapped by the armor. After that, they started to walk toward the front line campsite with jade plates on their belts. They were a heroic couple walking toward the battlefield!

     …

     At this time, the combat had begun. Soldiers from both parties had clashed in a flurry of steel. After being tortured by the curse letters, the soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe had rallied. Now they had started to vent their anger at their enemies on the battlefield.

     Normally, a soldier of the Heaven Orc Tribe could fight several mankind soldiers at the same time because of its big and strong body. Soldiers of mankind had been suppressed by their enemies' powerful offensives.

     Standing on the city wall, Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan looked at the battlefield speechlessly!

     They were assigned to a temporary supporting unit. There were altogether more than 100 soldiers in this unit. Most soldiers were at the Void Training Stage. They also got four or five cultivators at the Form Synthesis Stage. Jiang Hongyan, as a cultivator at the Crossing Calamity Stage, was appointed as the team leader immediately.

     However, those improvised soldiers didn't want to obey any orders. Before Jiang Hongyan had time to give any orders, these soldiers had jumped down from the city wall and started to dash toward the battlefield in all directions. Some soldiers hid themselves in safe places and tried to earn credits by killing enemies opportunistically. Some of them were quite confident to fight alone!

     Seeing that, Jiang Hongyan couldn't help but frown slightly. After all, this battlefield was more or less related to her past life. In her past life, she was the Empress of mankind in this continent, who was obliged to defend it. Now, the erratic attack of these mankind soldiers disappointed her.

     However, now she was Jiang Hongyan, who was no longer that Empress of her past life. She didn't want to change anything now.

     "Hongyan, just ignore them. They will encumber our action. Today, I will eliminate all soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe on this battlefield!" Xu Que said as he dashed forward, stepping on lightning.

     Jiang Hongyan also moved forward, following Xu Que with a smile!

     …

     The battlefield was full of deafening drumbeats and battle cries!

     The sky was covered by shadows of weapons and colorful magic arts!

     People kept falling down. The ground was soaked in blood. The combat was quite fierce. Mankind soldiers, who were losing this combat, were being pushed back by their enemies.

     However, something weird happened. Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan were going deeper and deeper into the battlefield! "What? Is that guy crazy?" Some among the mankind soldiers were surprised by Xu Que's move.

     Nobody dared to fight in this way in the battlefield. Especially now that the mankind army was in an unfavorable condition. All the soldiers were stepping back slowly as they tried to find an opportunity to launch a counterattack. Those who fought recklessly like Xu Que would die soon!

     "Why is a cultivator at the Void Training Stage trying to enter the main battlefield? Does he really want to end his life?" Someone sneered.

     "The main battlefield is for powerhouses at the Crossing Calamity Stage. If he dares to enter that area, he will definitely be shattered into pieces!"

     "Nonsense! How could a young man at the Void Training Stage enter the main battlefield? This is absolutely insane!"

     "Wait, look! It seems the woman behind him has reached the Crossing Calamity Stage!"

     "Heh-heh, so what? The main battlefield is full of powerhouses at the Crossing Calamity Stage. That woman at the Crossing Calamity Stage could hardly protect herself, let alone protect that young man at the Void Training Stage!"

     After their ridicule, those mankind soldiers continued to step back as they attacked their enemies. It was impossible for them to stop someone who wanted to commit suicide.

     Boom!

     However, just at this time, a magnificent True Core Strength gushed out from the body of Xu Que, who was dashing forward!

     Soaring Dragon's Nine Transformation, activate! Nine times of strength bonus created a violent momentum in his body!

     Then he activated the People Killing Book and the People Killing Sword of All Layers! At last, he also activated the Genuine Secret of "All" of the Nice Secrets! Now, his strength had been enhanced ten times over!

     The next moment, Xu Que dashed out with a long sword in his hand like a dazzling shooting star! The sword blade was roaring.

     Swish!

     He was racing forward like a beam of light!

     Several gigantic soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe stood in his way. Xu Que jumped up and slashed the sword forward with magnificent strength. The sword created a long shadow in the air.

     Rumble!

     He trembled the void with that smooth and clean slash, which had been enhanced by all kinds of intensification magic arts. The sword hit the soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe like a violent storm.

     All at once, those soldiers were blown up and fell into many soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe behind them like cannonballs!

     "Holy crap!"

     Seeing this, many mankind soldiers shouted in surprise as their eyes widened! They didn't believe what they had seen.

     Is he really at the Void Training Stage?

     He blew off several enemies at the Form Synthesis Stage with one sword attack!

     Damn! Is this for real?

     "Kill!" At this time, Xu Que shouted as he clenched his left fist. Then, he activated the System interface and spent 5,000 Acting Tough Points without hesitation.

     The next moment, the King of Tough-Acting Fist of which the power had been enhanced many times took shape in the air and dashed out abruptly.

     Rumble!

     Bang! Bang! Bang!

     Instantly, more than ten soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe exploded into blood mists.

     "Holy crap! My God!" Many of the mankind soldiers couldn't help but exclaim. They were totally dumbfounded and terrorized!

     How powerful this man is!

     As a cultivator at the Void Training Stage, he smashed more than ten enemies at the Form Synthesis Stage with one punch! This is really unbelievable!

     "The Sword of Great Rivers comes from the Heaven!" At the same time, Xu Que's voice started to echo around the battlefield! With the sword in his right hand, he clenched his left fist and stood in the air above the battlefield as his clothes floated with the wind. He fixed his eyes on the thickly dotted soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe excitedly.

     Rumble!

     He slashed the sword forward. The sword Qi was just like a rainbow. And the entire sword was slashing toward his enemy like a descending great sword from the Nine Heavens!

     Then he attacked with his fist, which shook the void and eliminated his enemies with magnificent Taoist Connotation!

     Bang! Bang! Bang!

     Dozens of soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe were blown off by the Sword Qi, and then smashed by the giant fist into blood mists in the air.

     "I kill one enemy in every ten steps; I am unstoppable for 1,000 miles! Can anyone ward off my sword attack?" Xu Que laughed arrogantly and didn't worry his move could attract hatred!

     Many mankind soldiers were dumbfounded.

     "Who the hell is that guy?"

     "Damn! He is so powerful! I've never seen such a ferocious man like him in the battlefield before!"

     "Kill one enemy in every ten steps? He could kill ten enemies in one step!" Many people were exclaiming.

     At the same time, many soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe had targeted Xu Que. A conspicuous capable person should always be wiped out with priority!

     "Kill him!" A roar came from the soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe. The next moment, hundreds of soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe started to rush toward Xu Que crazily.

     Xu Que shook his head and said with a laugh, "This is far from enough! All of you are at the Form Synthesis Stage. Your death will not satisfy me! Could anyone of you at the Crossing Calamity Stage step out to have a fight with me?"

     "You are seeking death!" Hundreds of Orc soldiers roared angrily as they rushed toward Xu Que.

     A young man at the Void Training Stage said the killing of hundreds of enemies at the Form Synthesis Stage couldn't satisfy him. This was a sheer humiliation for the Orc soldiers.

     However, what Xu Que said was true. Experience gained through killing cultivators at the Form Synthesis was not enough for him!

     Now he was at Level 3 of the Void Training Stage. Just now he killed more than 20 enemies at the Form Synthesis Stage, but he only accumulated one-third of the experience he needed to upgrade to the next level, which was far from enough!

     Therefore, at this moment, he needed to attract hatred and gather more enemies. Then, he could kill all of them with the King of Tough-Acting Fist of 10,000 Acting Tough Points!

     This was the correct way to minimize the consumption of the Acting Tough Points and maximize the gain of experience!

     Rumble!

     He slashed the sword again!

     This sword was only an Eight-Star weapon. But nobody knew a Sword Spirit was sleeping in this sword! Xu Que tried to awaken the Sword Spirit by killing his enemies with this sword, so that he could have a powerful guard when he faced the Emperor in future.

     Bang!

     The sword slashed down like a descending great sword from the Nine Heavens.

     Over 100 soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe were blown up by the sword.

     Boom!

     The next moment, the King of Tough-Acting Fist, which consumed 10,000 Acting Tough Points, covered those Orc soldiers immediately! The sky started to rain blood!

     "Wow!" Instantly, the mankind soldiers were in an uproar. More and more people had noticed Xu Que's moves.

     The soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe were dumbfounded and didn't believe what they had seen.

     Over 100 Orc soldiers at the Form Synthesis Stage, each one of whom could fight three cultivators at the same cultivation level, were killed by a young man at the Void Training Stage with one punch!

     "Retreat, and don't stand together!" A roar came in from the formation of the Heaven Orc Tribe immediately.

     Several Generals gave their orders, "Ignore that young man, kill the rest of the mankind soldiers first!" Apparently, they were not able to kill Xu Que. So, they changed their plan and started to kill other mankind soldiers.

     After all, the battlefield was just like a chess game. The strategic layout should not be influenced by one powerful chess piece!

     Swish!

     All Orc soldiers within a ten-kilometer radius retreated instantly.

     Xu Que raised his eyebrows and shouted with a wicked smile, "Stupid Heaven Orc Tribe, let me tell you a secret. Do you remember those curse letters? Yes, I am the one who sent them to you! Come and beat me up if you are not cowards!"

     805 This Is Really A Blessing For Us!

      With the help of his True Core Strength, Xu Que's voice became extremely loud and everyone on the battlefield could hear it. Suddenly, countless cultivators from the Heaven Orc Tribe were in a daze.

     Cursing letter? Wait a minute, how on earth does he know about the cursing letter? My goodness, can it be possible that he did all of this?! Crap!

     After a short bit of silence, everyone turned furious and began to scold.

     "He did all this!"

     "It's him!"

     Countless strong cultivators, who were all extremely tall, pointed at Xu Que and shouted. From their faces, one could tell that they were all indignant and full of shame, as if they had been bullied by Xu Que. Previously, they had been carefree and proud, but, because of the cursing letter, they had been living in terror and had been beaten heavily by their leader, one by one.

     Now, they finally realized that this wasn't just a coincidence. It turned out that the so-called cursing letter was just garbage and lies! Before they had made their departure, everyone in the camp was still investigating to find out who wrote the cursing letter. They all swore that once the culprit was found, they would kill him.

     Now, Xu Que stood in front of them, telling them that the letter had been written by him, and he was smiling shamelessly when he told them.

     Screw you!

     "Kill him!"

     "Let's kill him!"

     In the blink of an eye, thousands of cultivators from the Heaven Orc Tribe began to shout and run toward Xu Que.

     "Let's calm down! I think this young man is trying to makes us angry on purpose. We should hold our tempers and kill his peers!" One cultivator of the Heaven Orc Tribe shouted aloud.

     But his voice was soon buried by the shouting of the other cultivators….

     Hold our tempers?! This is impossible!

     All the cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe were taken over by their anger and lost their sanity. They dashed toward Xu Que, without caring about the rules that soldiers should always abide by. Among them, there were a few angry-looking leaders of the Crossing Calamity Stage. Clearly, they were also the victims of the cursing letter incident.

     "Come! Come hit me! Either I am killed by you lot, or you lot are killed by me today!" Xu Que smiled shamelessly, while waving at the approaching cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe.

     Hearing this, they got even more furious and could not wait to tear Xu Que apart. While the rest of the cultivators from the human world were all stunned.

     What is going on? Just few minutes ago, we were still fighting with cultivators from the Heaven Orc Tribe, but now they are all targeting Xu Que, after they heard Xu Que's talk of the cursing letter.

     They are even choosing not to kill us, just by hearing what that young man said?

     What on earth has that young man done to them?!

     Meanwhile, Jiang Hongyan's face got very serious, since she knew what had transpired. Although she was extremely powerful, she was not sure she would not be injured after fighting against the Heaven Orc Tribe.

     "Xu Que, be careful!" Jiang Hongyan shouted, while raising up her fair-skinned hand that was surrounded with gold light.

     Seeing this, Xu Que exclaimed, "Stop! Stop! Stop! Let me deal with them!"

     Then he hurriedly stood in front of Jiang Hongyan, with a sword in his one hand and the other hand clenched into a fist. It seemed that he was determined to kill all the Heaven Orc Tribe.

     Jiang Hongyan was a bit stunned and said, "You don't need to protect me, let me help you!"

     "Just stand behind me, trust me!" Xu Que turned around and smiled at Jiang Hongyan.

     Are you kidding? I have waited for so long to get the chance to kill so many powerful cultivators all at once and to gain Experience Points. As for whether I will be able to get into the Form Synthesis Stage, it would depend on my managing to kill all the cultivators from the Heaven Orc Tribe.

     At the same time, Jiang Hongyan was deeply moved by Xu Que. Looking at Xu Que's back, she recalled the time when he helped her to get through her Heavenly Tribulation. If it were not for Xu Que, she would have already been dead by now. This time, Xu Que, a slim young man, stood in front of her again and swore to protect her.

     Thinking about all this, Jiang Hongyan smiled and nodded.

     Bang!

     Meanwhile, Xu Que put all his attention on the tens of thousands of cultivators from the Heaven Orc Tribe. He brandished his sword again and again, killing a huge amount of cultivators from the Heaven Orc Tribe each time.

     At last, Xu Que practiced his King of Tough-Acting Fist. In the blink of an eye, countless cultivators of the Form Synthesis Stage changed into a ball of blood mist that poured down from the sky.

     Ding! "Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' on successfully killing a cultivator of the Form Synthesis Stage. He is rewarded with 20 million Experience Points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' on successfully killing a cultivator of the Form Synthesis Stage. He is rewarded with 20 million Experience Points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' on successfully killing a cultivator who is at the threshold of the Crossing Calamity Stage. He is rewarded with 40 million Experience Points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' on acting tough. He is rewarded with 10,000 thousand Acting Tough Points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' on acting tough. He is rewarded with 12,000 Acting Tough Points!"

     …

     The sound of the System's notifications kept ringing. With the Experience Points increasing, Xu Que was getting to higher and higher Stages: third level of the Void Training Stage, fourth level of the Void Training Stage, fifth level of the Void Training Stage.…

     The Acting Tough Points Xu Que got offset the Acting Tough Points he used to practice the King of Tough-Acting Fist; furthermore, he accumulated many more Acting Tough Points than he expected.

     By the time Xu Que reached the sixth level of the Void Training Stage, the sound of the notifications stopped. He had already run out of his Taoist Connotation, so he could no longer practice the King of Tough-Acting Fist.

     The entire battlefield was covered by scarlet blood, which had gathered together forming a river. There were no dead bodies left on the ground, with all the cultivators wiped out by Xu Que.

     The cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe who were still alive were all cruel and were not frightened by the bloody scene at all. Instead, they got even more excited and ferocious.

     "Kill!"

     Countless cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe who had survived roared and began to dash toward Xu Que with their eyes turning extremely red. Seeing this, all the cultivators who had fled and who were standing on the outskirts of the battlefield were shocked.

     They never thought the young man who was in the Void Training Stage was so powerful that he could kill such a huge amount of cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe all by himself.

     "This is really scary!"

     "The woman stood behind him. I can see she is in the Crossing Calamity Stage. She has not even made a move. He can fight against the Heaven Orc Tribe himself."

     "Who on earth is he?!"

     "For us, it would take about two days to kill the amount of cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe as he does."

     "We are so lucky to have him!" Many cultivators exclaimed.

     Right at this moment, a middle-aged, stout man, who was wearing purple and gold armour, was staring at Xu Que.

     "This young man has got talent. Check out his identity. I am going to recruit him into the Divine Son Division." He said in a deep voice.

     Hearing this, a cultivator standing next to him asked hurriedly, "General! Haven't you seen that young man is wearing armour and an identity card around his waist. I believe that he must have already been recruited into His HIghness's army. I don't think it is good for us to recruit him."

     "Screw him! Does he really think he is the Emperor of the entire human race?!" The middle-aged man sneered. "If it were not for the soldiers of the Divine Son Division, I could not possibly come here to protect the land for him. Now I simply want to ask him to allow this young man to come to my side. Do you think he would dare to contradict me?"

     "Well.…" The cultivator standing next to him hesitated. Then the middle-aged man turned around and stared at him.

     He became frightened and said, "I will do as you told me right now!" Then he left.

     The middle-aged man shook his head and murmured, "It seems that I have been rather modest these days. That is why that old booby has gotten the chance to overshadow me!"

     Then he glanced across the battlefield and looked at Xu Que. He was very happy and said, "With this young talented man, if I can get him into my Divine Son Division,... I will do everything I can to cultivate him." Before he finished those words, he was stunned by what he saw.

     On the battlefield, Xu Que, who had run out of his Taoist Connotation, was running away like crazy with Jiang Hongyan. He was running toward the human cultivators like a coward.

     "Crap, what is going on?"

     "I can feel he still has a huge amount of True Core Strength!"

     "It seems that he is frightened by the sudden outrage of the cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe!"

     "Look at him, he is touching his genital parts."

     "It seems that he is trying to take something out."

     "It's a piece of Talisman, what is he going to do?!"

     "I think he is going to practice a new incantation!"

     Many cultivators got very excited all of a sudden. The way Xu Que killed a huge amount of cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe with a punch or brandishing his sword had bored them already. Now, with Xu Que taking out a piece of Talisman, everyone got very curious. Even the middle-aged General standing on the city wall was expecting Xu Que to do something surprising.

     "Young man, show me what you have got this time!"

     Bang!

     Xu Que activated the Talisman with one hand, holding Jiang Hongyan with the other, while shouting aloud:

     "Killing a cultivator by walking ten steps forward without leaving any traces after, even walking 1,000 miles; my reputation will be buried no matter how much military success I have and I will leave with a handsome turning-around!"

     Then, the Talisman began to shine and the void around him started to twist.

     In the blink of an eye, Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan disappeared completely.

     All of a sudden, there was pure silence.

     Both the bloodthirsty cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe and the human cultivators were stunned. As for the middle-aged General, he was so angry that he almost spit out blood.

     Your reputation will be buried no matter how much military success you have made and you will leave with a handsome turning-around? Screw you, you haven't made any success and who asked you to bury your reputation?! Come back, you coward!

     806 Come!

      Obviously, after Xu Que left the battlefield, the human cultivators' situations worsened. The cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe had been greatly infuriated by Xu Que. Now Xu Que had gone, leaving all the other human cultivators behind.

     The human cultivators who had been left behind were all stunned, and, after a short while, they began to run away. After all, no one would want to face a group of angry cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe. Fighting against them would be tantamount to committing suicide.

     …

     Meanwhile, on the frontline of the human cultivators' camp, there were still a small group of backups left. In the middle of the open space of the camp, there were two enormous jade stones. The two stones were close to each other and on top of the stones, there were three characters, which said Ranking Chart for Soldiers and Generals. On the surface of the jade stone on the left side there were two characters, which said Ranking Chart for Soldiers, and the jade stones on the right said Ranking Chart for Generals.

     There were thousands of names on the two stones respectively. The names were written alphabetically, and there were a bunch of numbers written right next to each name. Clearly, the numbers stood for the credits each soldier or general had made. A few soldiers came by, trying to check how many credits they had earned, so they could exchange some valuable objects.

     "It is really hard to earn credits. I killed a cultivator of the Form Synthesis Stage, and I only got ten credits!"

     "You should be satisfied. Look, someone found a bottle of Pei Yuan Pills, and he only earned five credits."

     "Look at those soldiers who rank in the first hundred on the list. The soldier that ranks last gets 1,000 credits, which means that he must have killed at least more than 100 cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe.

     "Look at those who rank in the top ten. They have got more than 7,000 or 8,000 credits each, which means they have killed hundreds of cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe."

     "My goodness, the general that ranks last on the list of the Ranking Chart for Generals has got 10,000 credits…."

     "You know what, each general on the list of the Ranking Chart for Generals has killed many cultivators of the Crossing Calamity Stage of the Heaven Orc Tribe."

     "You are right, killing a cultivator of the Crossing Calamity Stage of the Heaven Orc Tribe can get 200 credits, just like killing 20 cultivators of the Form Synthesis Stage of the Heaven Orc Tribe does."

     …

     The soldiers talked, while walking toward the Ranking Chart for Soldiers and Generals. Then each of them took out his own identity card to check how many credits they had got. On the list of the Ranking Chart for Soldiers, there were only 1,000 soldiers listed. For those who ranked behind, they would have to check their credits with their identification cards.

     "How strange, I remember I was ranked 900th the day before yesterday, why I am ranked 901st now?!"

     "No way, you went to the battlefield yesterday, how can this be?!"

     "Besides, the man who ranks behind you has much less credits than you. It is impossible for him to surpass you!"

     The soldiers walked forward and were very surprised by what they saw.

     "What is going on?"

     "I think the list is not very different from what it looked like a few days ago.…"

     "Look! Someone else has become the first on the list of the Ranking Chart for Soldiers!"

     "It's Liu Ye from the Cloud Eagle Faction! I remember that he ranked last in the list of the Ranking Chart for Generals the last time. How on earth has his name dropped from the list of the Ranking Chart for Soldiers?"

     "Wait a minute, who ranks last in the Ranking Chart for Generals?"

     "Can it be that young man?!"

     They were all shocked and hurriedly glanced at the Ranking Chart for Generals.

     In the golden and shining Ranking Chart for Generals, they saw a few words that they never seen before, which said, "Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction, fifth level of the Void Training Stage, credits: 13,010."

     "Holy crap! How can this be?"

     "Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction? I have never heard of this name or seen it on the Ranking Chart for Soldiers!"

     "Can it be possible that he directly makes his way into the Ranking Chart for Generals?"

     "This can't be true! You see, he is just in the Void Training Stage!"

     "I never knew someone of the Void Training Stage who could make his way into the Ranking Chart for Generals!"

     "I think there must be something wrong with the Ranking Chart for Soldiers or Generals. We shall report this to the General!"

     Then, they all hurriedly dashed to the camp.

     Soon, the news spread: There is nothing wrong with the Ranking Chart for Soldiers or Generals. There was indeed a young man who managed to kill countless cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe all by himself on the battlefield. The General had asked the soldiers to find out who the young man was and had decided to recruit him into the Divine Son Division. As soon as the news got around, everyone was shocked.

     How can a cultivator of the Void Training Stage be so powerful?! It only took him a day for him to put his name onto the list of the Ranking Chart for Generals? Besides, the General even wants to recruit him!

     Many soldiers were jealous about this.

     "The Divine Son Division is a team made up of extremely talented cultivators, for god's sake!"

     "As the name, the Divine Son Division, itself tells, everyone in the Divine Son Division can be called a divine son. It was established almost a century ago, but there are only 30 genuine talents who come from various influential Factions."

     "I do envy him! Once he gets into the Divine Son Division, the General will do everything and give him everything he wants to cultivate him."

     "Nonsense! The General is such a noble man and is in the top level of the Great Vehicle Stage, even His Highness will not contradict him."

     "Shush! You should not say such a thing! We all know this is true, but you shall not speak it out!"

     …

     In less than a day, everyone in the frontline knew about Li Bai.

     At the same time, Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan appeared on a desolate mountain, which was not very far from the camp. Earlier, Xu Que had run out of all his Taoist Connotation, so he could no longer fight against the cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe and ran away. But he was not upset by this, and in fact, everything just went as he had planned. Although he could not continue to kill any cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe, he still managed to act tough.

     "If I had mastered the Gautama Buddha Seal, I would not have had to run away!" Xu Que said with a bit of regret.

     To practice the Gautama Buddha Seal, Xu Que would have to master the other three seals of the Heaven and Earth Seal. However, he had only managed to master the Heavenly Thunder Seal so far and had not even started to learn the other two, simply because he did not have enough Skill Essence.

     I would have to find some opportunities to get some superb incantations!

     "Xu Que!" Jiang Hongyan looked at Xu Que in surprise! "You are already in the fifth level of the Void Training Stage?!"

     Xu Que smiled. "I have given you quite a shock, haven't I?! You know what, after I have a good sleep tonight, I will go to the battlefield again!"

     Hearing this, Jiang Hongyan was shocked. Although she knew that Xu Que was a very talented man, she never thought that he could jump from the third level of the Void Training Stage to the fifth level in half a day.

     Judging from his breathing, I can tell that he would soon be in the sixth level of the Void Training Stage. How did he manage to do so? How can there be such a talented man in this world?!

     "Hongyan, we shall leave now! It is already late, I think by the time we arrive at the camp, the sky will be bright already."

     Xu Que smiled and held Jiang Hongyan's hand and they dashed forward.

     …

     The next day, the refreshed human cultivators came to the battlefield again. The cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe had already calmed down. They had learned from yesterday's battle and had chosen a new strategy. As soon as the human cultivators arrived at the battlefield, they saw countless cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe dividing into hundreds of smaller teams. The leaders of the Heaven Orc Tribe had made it clear that anyone who contradicted their orders would be immediately executed.

     All the cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe were in high spirits.

     "Kill!" They shouted while heading to the human cultivators.

     Seeing this, all the human cultivators were shocked.

     I have no idea how to attack them since they have been divided into so many forces. We have never been trained to react in this situation!

     Bang!

     Right at this moment, a huge explosion rang out, accompanied by a laughing sound. The next minute, an enormous sword fell right onto the ground.

     "My dear friends, I am Li Xiaoyao, the younger brother of Li Bai from the Exploding Heavens Faction. I come here today for him to fight against the cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe!"

     807 Come On And Be Merry!

      The atmosphere on the battlefield suddenly shifted and got more intense.

     Everyone opened their eyes wide and glared intently at Xu Que, who had just descended from the sky. The Heavenly Orcs were so furious that they almost burst.

     The younger brother of Li Bai – Li Xiaoyao?

     He's going into battle in place of his elder brother?

     Battle my ass!

     Couldn't you try better if you wanted to disguise your identity?

     You haven't changed your clothes, let alone your looks! Those bloodstains splattered on your clothes are from yesterday's battle, aren't they?

     Everyone had, obviously, immediately seen through Xu Que's insincere disguise. Both his looks and his outfit were the same as yesterday.

     Most important, he had brought Jiang Hongyan with him. The duo was just too eye-catching; she was clearly a powerhouse at the Crossing Calamity Stage, but not once had she ever made a move. On the other hand, the young man at the Void Training Stage had been killing enemies left and right, and no one could stop his prowess!

     This had made the Heavenly Orc Tribe feel especially humiliated. By doing that, it was as though Xu Que was gloating at them – How's that? I can bring in a Crossing Calamity Stage powerhouse and show her off as much as I want! A mere Void Training Stage cultivator like me is enough to play you guys like a fiddle!

     "Come on, come on! I feel good today! I, Li Xiaoyao, will be the dealer. Let's make a bet on how many people I can kill today! Let's set the limit at 500. Those who think that I can't kill above 500 people can bet on small. If you think otherwise, big is your bet!" Xu Que ignored the fiery gazes of the Heavenly Orc Tribe and started to holler at the human cultivators.

     Al the human cultivators present twitched the corners of their lips at the same time and were stumped by Xu Que's behavior.

     Bet on big or small?

     Crap, how can he play it that way?

     On the other hand, the Heavenly Orcs were enraged, especially those Heavenly Orc soldiers making up the hundreds of formations. They could hardly hold in their urge to tear Xu Que into 1,000 pieces!

     "Heavenly Orcs, heed your orders! Ignore that human lad and maintain the formation. Charge ahead in full power!" yelled the generals of the individual formations all of a sudden.

     "The Heavenly Orc Tribe shall never be slaves! Kill!"

     All of the Heavenly Orc Tribe threw their arms into the air and howled. Their deafening screams resounded loudly on the battlefield, echoing in all directions. The great battle commenced once again just like that. Countless formations made up of Heavenly Orcs plowed toward the human cultivators, with the terrifying strength of a million armies.

     Boom!

     Boom!

     Boom!

     Every footstep generated a thunder-like crash that shook the heaven and earth; the sound stuck at the hearts of the human cultivators like a humongous battle drum!

     "All soldiers and men, heed your orders! Do not disperse! Unite like a tightly knotted rope! We will annihilate the enemy!" At the same time, the human generals also howled out their orders, which rang throughout the battlefield. The human cultivators could no longer retreat. They unleashed their magic arts and, in a concerted effort, charged onward!

     Well, that was embarrassing!

     What should he do, now that the enemy had ignored his provocation?

     "Aww dang it, why are you guys so calm today?" Xu Que couldn't help but shake his head, at a slight loss about what to do.

     Jiang Hongyan stood by his side and smiled gently. "Provocation is not the only way to attract their attention."

     "Hmm?"

     Xu Que was stunned for a second, and then his eyes shone brilliantly. He laughed, "You're right! Angering them is not the only way. I've got an idea!" He waved his hand and summoned the System parcel.

     Ka-thunk!

     An immeasurable amount of best-grade Spirit Stones suddenly spilled out of the System parcel and fell onto the ground like a purple waterfall. They quickly formed a purple pile almost as big as a small hill.

     His actions shocked everybody present.

     Whether it was the human cultivators or the Heavenly Orc Tribe, all of them stopped charging at each other. Horror filled their faces as they shot their gazes toward Xu Que.

     Every single best-grade Spirit Stone was crystalline and glistening; their purple gleam almost blinded everyone.

     "Crap! How...how did that guy manage to get that many best-grade Spirit Stones?"

     "Holy crap! That's comparable to a Spirit Stone Vein!"

     "What's he doing on the battlefield if he has got that many best-grade Spirit Stones?"

     Xu Que's wealth shook the human cultivators, and they quickly erupted into a discussion. Even the Heavenly Orc Tribe's eyes got wide with greed. Although they do not need the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth to cultivate, Spirit Stones are, after all, the common currency of the cultivation world. With that many best-grade Spirit Stones, they could purchase as much blood from human cultivators and demonic beasts as they wanted.

     What was the reason that they had to come to the battlefield and invaded the human territory?

     It was for the endless supply of Spirit Stones and the blood of human cultivators!

     Since Xu Que had so many Spirit Stones, why did they need to fight the human cultivators? They could simply seize the Stones from Xu Que!

     The Heavenly Orcs became fidgety at once, and their formation started to become messy.

     "Heavenly Orcs, heed my order! Maintain the formation; those who go against this order shall be heavily punished!" The Heavenly Orc general yelled, instantly worried by the commotion.

     However, Xu Que started to wave seductively at the Heavenly Orcs, and even began to sing, "Come on now and be merry! Anyway we have a lot of time! Come on now, wreak some havoc! Come seize my best-grade Spirit Stones!"

     Crap!

     Every human cultivator in the arena could not believe their eyes. What the hell, to think that such a seductive song exists! That's so low! They almost wanted to rush in and beat him up!

     The massive crowd of Heavenly Orcs, however, could not take it any longer. The formation of Heavenly Orcs nearest to Xu Que had almost broken apart, with every Orc wanting to charge toward Xu Que. After all, a small handful of best-grade Spirit Stones far outweighed their rewards for risking their lives on the battlefield!

     As for the Heavenly Orcs farther away from Xu Que, they could hardly contain their impatience upon seeing the commotion near Xu Que. They were worried that if they waited any longer, they wouldn't be quick enough to get even a single Stone!

     Howl!

     Finally, the Heavenly Orcs in the distance let out an angry howl and made a move. They charged toward Xu Que like an impending tornado. Once the first Heavenly Orc moved, it sparked a chain reaction and others quickly followed. They all charged toward Xu Que, and the situation immediately got out of hand. No matter how the Heavenly Orc generals threatened their soldiers, they could not stop them from storming over toward Xu Que.

     Xu Que, on the other hand, smiled calmly at the other human cultivators. "Hurry, place your bets early before it's too late! The baseline is 500 Heavenly Orcs – the rate is 1:1 no matter if you bet on big or small!""

     Crap!

     Many human cultivators scolded loudly to themselves. Having battled for so long, this was the first time they had seen someone arrogant enough to start a gamble on the battlefield! They didn't understand what was going on anymore!

     As the saying goes, true men prefer death to humiliation. What Xu Que did was a great disrespect to the opponent and the battlefield! But they liked it!

     "Fellow Cultivator Li! I'll bet 1,000 High-Grade Spirit Stones on big!" said someone who gave in and threw him 1,000 High-Grade Spirit Stones.

     "Gotcha! Good choice!" Xu Que laughed and took the Spirit Stones.

     Other human cultivators quickly followed; they took out their Spirit Stones and hurriedly placed their bets.

     "10,000 High-Grade Spirit Stones from me, I'll bet on big!"

     "10 Best-Grade Spirit Stones from me, I'll bet on small!"

     "I won't hold back either! 100 Best-Grade Spirit Stones, betting on small!"

     ...

     Countless people participated in the gambling,amassing a huge pile of best-grade Spirit Stones in front of Xu Que. Though tempted, they could not harm an ally, and so they changed their minds from robbing to gambling since Xu Que was rich enough to pay them all! Within moments, Xu Que had collected tens of thousands of best-grade Spirit Stones.

     The very instant that the Heavenly Orcs charged at him, he swept out and shouted to Jiang Hongyan, "Little Miss, keep these Spirit Stones for me! Don't let others steal them; it's the maintenance allowance for our home!"

     Jiang Hongyan stopped in surprise, then smiled gently. She then swept away all the Spirit Stones on the ground. At the same time, Xu Que had already rushed into the sea of Heavenly Orcs and began to level up.

     Swoosh!

     The gleam of his sword engulfed heaven and earth and blasted away a staggering number of Heavenly Orcs!

     Boom!

     Down came Xu Que's King of Tough-Acting Fists and the Heavenly Orcs exploded into blood mist one by one. The atmosphere started to turn feverish.

     In situations where Xu Que could use the King of Tough-Acting Fist, he was so powerful that he was almost untouchable – nobody, no matter if they were at the Form Synthesis Stage or the Crossing Calamity Stage, could not do anything to him. They were all reduced to blood mist before they could even come near. With that, Xu Que was invincible, unless a Great Vehicle Stage cultivator decided to interfere or he used up his Taoist Connotation.

     The human cultivators all stared intently at the battlefield, as they kept track of how many Orcs Xu Que had killed.

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host Xu Que for successfully acting tough! You have been rewarded 13,000 Acting Tough points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host Xu Que for successfully acting tough! You have been rewarded 14,000 Acting Tough points!"

     ...

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host Xu Que for killing a powerhouse at the Form Synthesis Stage! You have been rewarded 10 million Acting Tough points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host Xu Que for killing a super powerhouse at the Form Synthesis Stage! You have been rewarded 20 million Acting Tough points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host Xu Que for killing a super powerhouse at the Form Synthesis Stage! You have been rewarded 20 million Acting Tough points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host Xu Que for leveling up successfully! You are now at the sixth level of the Void Training Stage!"

     ...

     The sound of the System notifications kept resounding in Xu Que's mind. Xu Que finally used up all of his Taoist Connotation when he broke through to the eighth level of the Void Training Stage. Although his Taoist Connotation capacity would increase with his cultivation stage, the amount of experience needed to level up would double with every stage progression. Therefore, Xu Que was satisfied to have leveled up to the eighth level from the fifth level of Void Training.

     In this battle, he had exterminated a total of 500 orcs, including generals at the Crossing Calamity Stage.

     Exactly 500!

     Human cultivators who had bet on small quickly paled. It was over. They had lost!

     Those who had bet on big, however, had agitation and exhilaration on their faces. They would win if Xu Que killed one more orc!

     The human cultivators all set their eyes on Xu Que and stared at him intently as if urging loudly in their hearts for him to kill, to continue killing!

     Swoosh!

     Xu Que suddenly broke out from the encirclement of the orcs and stood beside Jiang Hongyan. Then, he looked over the crowd and said, "Time flies when you're having fun! The fight ends here!"

     End?

     Did it end just like that?

     How could you determine who won or lost?

     Everyone present in the arena was stunned, especially the human cultivators who had bet on big. Their eyes widened in disbelief at Xu Que's words.

     "Don't worry everyone, for trust is the motto of the Exploding Heavens Faction! I, Li Xiaoyao, announce on behalf of the Exploding Heavens Faction that the gambling is over! The handsome me has killed exactly 500 orcs, and so the dealer takes all! Till we meet again!"

     Once he finished, he took Jiang Hongyan's hand and activated the Intermediate Escape Emblem. The two of them vanished immediately.

     808 Asking For Death!

      That was the day that the human cultivators almost went mad with anger. Those who thought they had hit the jackpot had underestimated Xu Que. How could Xu Que be so immoral that he would run away after only killing 500 giants? He even made excuses saying that it was a win-win situation!

     Win-win their ass!

     How could someone so shameless exist?

     Could it be that those great Spiritual Stones on him were a scam?

     He's so wicked that no one dared to be his friend!

     ...

     However, Xu Que did something good in the end. The human cultivators were very likely to lose that day. Should that happen, they would have suffered significant losses. Although Xu Que only caused the Heaven Orc Tribe to lose 500 giants, he had directly disrupted the Orcs' formation, damaging their morale, and thus had brought the battle to an early end. The Generals of the Heaven Orc Tribe had withdrawn their troops and retreated temporarily. Thanks to that, the human cultivators were able to return safely to their camps. However, in the camps, chaos ensued.

     Countless people gathered in front of the Ranking Chart for Soldiers and were shocked to see that brand-new name on the ranks.

     "How horrifying!"

     "In just two days, he shot straight up to the 103rd place on the list!"

     "Although he is dishonest, his strength is undeniable!'

     "Where on earth did Li Bai from the Exploding Heavens Faction pop up from? Why have we not heard of this faction and his name?"

     "In any case, it seems like he will make it into the Top 10 if he takes part in another battle!"

     "Top 10? You exaggerate. Despite his recent rapid rise in ranking, he's got a big gap in achievements to make up for to enter the Top 100!"

     "Yes, when it comes to the top 100, the difference between each placing is comparable to a whole new rank!"

     "And the Top 30 are all from the Divine Son Division!"

     "At his current speed of killing enemies, he would need seven consecutive days of battle to make it into the Top 30!"

     ...

     They might have been gossiping, but deep down inside, they still admired Xu Que's strength. Although his rank was not considered high, no one doubted his ability. With enough time, sooner or later he would make it into the Top 30 of the Ranking Chart for Generals! That way, he would also have proved his worth to enter the Divine Son Division. As for whether or not he could top the Divine Son Division? Nobody ever thought about it, because everyone thought it was impossible.

     ...

     At the same time, in a camp, a middle-aged man sat on a chair as he looked at the few young men before him. A portrait was laid out on the table. It was Xu Que in his disguise, and, under the picture, the following was written in small print: Exploding Heavens Faction: Li Bai. Origin unknown.

     "I have verified this child's potential. He is qualified to join the Divine Son Division!" said the middle-aged man as he tapped his finger gently on the case.

     The young men immediately frowned and exchanged glances. One of them said, "Commander, he hails from a land unknown. Shouldn't we carry out a thorough investigation before we decide?"

     "There's no need. As members of the Divine Son Division, you all will find out where he is, and invite him into the Divine Son Division on my behalf." The middle-aged man shook his head and ordered sternly. The young men did not dare to disagree with his words. They quickly accepted their task and left the tent.

     ...

     Meanwhile, Xu Que had already returned to the inn with Jiang Hongyan. The Escape Emblem was considerate for once and sent them directly back to the ancient city, where they took a rest in the Inn. As soon as she entered the room, Jiang Hongyan sat down and started to meditate. She never lost her cool no matter where she was. Even in meditation, she was dignified, elegant, and graceful.

     Xu Que shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Little Missy, you shouldn't live like that, always immersed in your practice. When will you finally realize the joy of life? Come on. I'll make some lollipops or ice pops for you to lick!"

     Amused, Jiang Hongyan opened her eyes and smiled faintly: "Unlike you, I can't break through in Cultivation Stage during battle. If I slack off in my Cultivation, you'll surpass me in less than half a year!"

     "Taken by me.... Bah no, what's wrong with being overtaken by me? With me here, nobody can hurt you!" Xu Que said as he sat down beside Jiang Hongyan. Unable to keep his hands to himself, he put his arm on Jiang Hongyan's shoulder, while slipping down as if it was an unintentional move.

     Jiang Hongyan blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at Xu Que, "Should you overtake me, I bet you'd take the bullying further."

     "When did I ever bully you? Hey, what's going on, who is it? Who put my hand there? It's too much!" Xu Que answered righteously and rested his palm honestly on Jiang Hongyan's shoulder, not budging a centimeter.

     He understood Jiang Hongyan's character very well. She was mature, dignified, and detailed. He should not press her too hard. So before he reached a certain level of intimacy with her, he was better off following the traditional way of modesty. Just like the mutual respect between husband and wife, likened to a river carving a channel, he had to go slow and steady. Otherwise, even if he had taken advantage of her now, she would have cut off any future advances he wished to make.

     Xu Que inevitably sighed at the thought of that. A woman that only a holy god can woo; winning her heart was not easy! Just then, something unexpected happened!

     With a slight smile on her face, Jiang Hongyan leaned her head toward Xu Que's shoulder, in an extraordinarily natural, yet elegant way. Caught off guard by this unexpected act, Xu Que fell silent, las if a cat had caught his tongue.

     Did she finally sort out her thinking?

     Is she hinting something?

     Xu Que's heartbeat could not help but quicken. It was as if he had returned to his youth, the same kind of palpitation he experienced when he was alone with his first love.

     Jiang Hongyan was perfect, perfect beyond criticism. What captivated him most was her indifferent but noble temperament, it was so exceptionally charming that she could be called a goddess. It was enough to make all men in the world not dare to taint her and think themselves as unworthy.

     However, words like "inferiority complex" were never in Xu Que's dictionary. Someone as thick-skinned as him would strive for whatever he wanted. On the other hand, if he didn't want it, nobody could force him to take it.

     Right now, Jiang Hongyan's initiative to lean on his shoulder invigorated him. The hand that he managed to keep down began to feel ticklish again. Slowly, it snuck toward Jiang Hongyan's chest.

     "Don't be cheeky, little one!" Jiang Hongyan scolded softly, a faint smile on her lips and her eyes still shut. Xu Que's hand went stiff at once and stopped in its tracks.

     How frustrating!

     Just a little, only a little more, and I could have touched it!

     No, he can't give up halfway!

     "Eh, I see a bug on you, young lady! Here, let me get rid of it!" Xu Que promptly found a lame excuse and tried to continue. However, before he could start, there was a sudden movement at the door.

     Bang!

     Someone hit the door with considerable force. The whole door was instantly pushed open. Three young men appeared before them.

     "Why! It seems like we should have chosen a better time to arrive!" One of the men immediately made a joke when he saw Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan together.

     The trio came unannounced and barged in without even knocking. The three men ignored what Jiang Hongyan and Xu Que were doing and walked in with a sense of superiority on their faces. Jiang Hongyan's beautiful eyebrows faintly furrowed and looked wintry at the three men. Xu Que quickly soured and his face blackened to an extreme. He was lucky not to have done anything just now. Otherwise, those three would have gotten a free show when they barged in!

     809 You Guys Are Ugly!

      "Hmph!" Xu Que scoffed and crossed his legs. Then he waved his hand.

     Boom!

     The wooden bench, pulled by an unseen force, crashed toward the three young men by the door. Two of the three wore red and green respectively. The young man in green looked peculiar and had two protruding front teeth – more commonly known as buckteeth. The red-clad man had ordinary looks, but there was something eerie about him. The third guy wore a mask so one could not make out his looks.

     The men clad in red and green smiled scornfully when they saw the bench being hurled toward them. They raised their hands casually and pushed their palms slightly forward. The radiance of true core strength abruptly flared.

     Boom!

     With a loud noise, the whole wooden bench exploded into sawdust.

     "I see that you've got quite the temper! How dare you attack us. Don't you know who we are?" The red-clad man smirked coldly.

     "Trash!" Xu Que answered without hesitation.

     At the same time, he frowned. It was quite clear that the three men were strong; they must at least be at the Crossing Calamity Stage. However, compared to Jiang Hongyan, they still had a way to go!

     "You are atrocious! Who do you think you are, to talk like that to the Divine Son Division!" The man in green demanded menacingly.

     The red-clad man also quipped, "Li Bai, one should not be too arrogant! If not for the Commander, who told us to inform you of your entry into the Divine Son Division, your act of aggression just now would be enough to warrant your death!"

     "My death?" Xu Que laughed mockingly. "I'm afraid that you're the ones who'll be meeting your maker!"

     He called out the System as coldness flared in his eyes. He was prepared to kill them with the King of Tough-Acting Fist.

     "All right, that's enough!"

     Suddenly, the masked man came forward and peered directly at Xu Que. He spoke emotionlessly, "You must be Li Bai from the Exploding Heavens Faction. Don't worry. We are not here to kill you today. This is the Token of Passing of the Divine Son Division. Once you accept this token, you will be part of the Divine Son Division, ranked No. 31!"

     As he spoke, an ink-black token floated out from his sleeve and flew at Xu Que.

     Bam!

     Without even sparing a side glance, Xu Que smashed it into smithereens with a wave of his arm. He snorted, "Divine Son Division, my arse! Do you think I care? Playing by the rules of our Exploding Heavens Faction, once you anger me, you can't dream of walking away alive!"

     Boom!

     Xu Que conjured a significant amount of True Core Strength as his voice fell, and he balled his hands into fists. But shortly after, his brows furrowed into a frown. He didn't have enough Taoist Connotation!

     The System reminded him silently why, and he came to his senses. He had just undergone a fight, and his Taoist Connotation had not recovered. Therefore, right now, he could not use the Tough-Acting Fist.

     "Brazen fella! How dare you destroy the token of the Divine Son Division!" The green-clad man jumped up in a fury, and he ignored the final part of Xu Que's sentence entirely.

     The disdain on the face of the red-clad man strengthened. He shook his head and said, "Don't you know that every member of the Divine Son Division is not to be trifled with? We are the ones, chosen out of thousands! All of us have exceptional potential, and every single one of us is stronger than you!"

     The red-clad man paused and raised his head as if looking down on Xu Que. He then continued haughtily, "Don't think that just because you killed some Heaven Orcs on the battlefield, you're unbeatable! Those Heaven Orcs in Form Synthesis Stage are just a bunch of ants in our eyes, we sons of the Divine Son Division! They are not worth our time!"

     "Ha, ha, idiot! You said that you are in the Crossing Calamity Stage, so isn't it a joke if you can't even defeat someone in the Form Synthesis Stage? Save the boasting if you can't kill so many Form Synthesis Stage orcs when you were in the Void Training Stage, like me!"

     The red-clad man's face darkened at those words, and his smile disappeared.

     Xu Que was speaking the truth. Even for the Divine Son Division, they could not kill so many powerful orcs in the Form Synthesis Stage when they were at the Void Training Stage.

     "Hmph! So what if you could kill this many Form Synthesis Stage powerhouses? You are but a lowly cultivator in the Void Training Stage. In front of us, you are still an ant! I don't understand what this lady likes about you. To think that a powerful Crossing Calamity Stage cultivator would fall so low, that she would follow a lowlife in the Void Training Stage around!"

     Jiang Hongyan had retained her modified appearance after using the change-self spell. Though not quite astoundingly beautiful, she could not hide her aura of being otherworldly elegant. The way she carried herself was poised and dignified, and people couldn't help but be drawn to her.

     Ever since the three men entered, their gazes kept looking toward Jiang Hongyan, seemingly thinking that an outstanding woman like her should not be following a puny Void Training cultivator around.

     "You ask what she likes of me? Isn't the answer obvious? Open your dog eyes wide and see for yourself! What is this that you see?" Xu Que patted his cheeks agitatedly as he said, emphasizing his face, "See that? It's because of this handsome face!"

     Swoosh!

     The trio from the Divine Son Division almost burst with anger when they heard his words, eyes bulging.

     "What do you mean? Are you making fun of our common looks? How superficial!" said the red-clad man angrily.

     Xu Que quickly cut him off. "Don't spout nonsense! Look at yourself. You look like a joke! And you, the one wearing green, look at your teeth, you could even do circumcision using them! I'd save my breath on the masked one. With looks like that, don't you three feel any shame bragging that your looks are just common?"

     "Crap!"

     The red-clad man was rampant with fury, his face beet-red like he would rush up and fight Xu Que any moment.

     "Enough!" The masked man bellowed and stopped the green-clad man, sweeping a cold gaze at Xu Que, saying, "Li Bai, know your boundaries! We do not deny that your potential is astounding! However, the others at the Divine Son Division are not pushovers either. We do not lose to you in terms of potential, and every one of us only made it after going through life-and-death situations and unimaginable hardships! Like me, when I was 15 years old, I was found out to have no Spiritual Root at all and was deemed impossible to cultivate. But in the end, I still achieved what I have today!"

     His words tickled Xu Que, who raised both of his hands. Clap clap clap! Xu Que applauded and he beamed. "No Spiritual Root at 15 years old, but you still achieved what you have today, are you flaunting how inspirational you are? Can't blame you all, since being inspirational is all you can be, unlike me, who is inspirationally good-looking!"

     "How dare you! I'm telling you that this is a world where we talk with fists! You have no right to laugh at our looks!" The masked man spat, angered by Xu Que's response.

     "I have no right? Ha, ha, I think not! So what if I call you guys ugly? Ugly so-and-so, can you turn on the lights? Angry? Hit me if you dare!" Xu Que sang out, his face smug and shameless. The trio just wanted to smash him to death!

     It seemed like their wariness toward the Commander outweighed their anger, as all three of them swallowed the insults and did not touch Xu Que.

     "Hmph, let's leave!" In the end, the masked man turned, shooting Xu Que a final glare.

     The two men clad in red and green respectively also glared at him coldly and, without a word, left as they silently fumed.

     "Little one, do you need me to teach them a lesson?" Jiang Hongyan smiled as she stepped forward, calm and elegant as always. She noticed that Xu Que had no intention of killing any more people today; otherwise, with his character, they would already be dead by now!

     "There's no need. I will take care of them myself!" Xu Que stopped her from making a move.

     All in all, he paid no attention to those three. If not for the fact that he had overused the King of Tough-Acting Fist today, he would have killed them long ago. But since he couldn't use it now, then there was no hurry — no need to dirty Jiang Hongyan's hands.

     Also, those people were worth a lot of experience points. He needed to enter the battlefield once again after tomorrow. That would propel him into the peak of the Void Training Stage.

     At that point, he wouldn't even need the Tough-Acting Fist to kill those so-called geniuses from the Divine Son Division. He would smash them with one hand, then prepare to break into the Form Synthesis Stage!

     810 So What! We Must See It!

      With that, the three young men from the Divine Son Division left in a rage. Xu Que waited for their aura to disappear entirely from the Soul Strength detection before he sat next to Jiang Hongyan again, his hands dying to touch her.

     Jiang Hongyan shot him an exasperated look and whispered, "Frankly speaking, you could have taken up their offer to join the Divine Son Division."

     "Huh? Is there anything special about this Divine Son Division?" Xu Que asked doubtfully.

     After all, while those three men did seem quite powerful, they were not strong enough to make Xu Que think highly of them. Once he unleashed the King of Tough-Acting Fist, those three would surely perish! Why join this so-called Divine Son Division if that was the best they could offer? It could not even compare to his Exploding Heavens Faction!

     "The key to the Divine Son Division lies in their commander-in-chief, Qin Wei! Also at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage, he has an extraordinary position in the Xuanzhen Continent; even the Emperor has got to show him some courtesy and doesn't want to fight him. If you take refuge in the Divine Son Division, even the Emperor would need to think twice before touching you!" Jiang Hongyan said.

     Xu Que could not believe his ears. "What? Is this commander guy stronger than the Emperor?"

     "No. Strengthwise, the Emperor would surely be in the top rankings within the Xuanzhen Continent, and Qin Wei could never compare. However, cultivators who had reached their stage are often reluctant to fight. As even if there is a gap in strength, it's unlikely that they could kill each other that easily."

     As Jiang Hongyan said this, she looked up slightly at the night sky beyond the windowsill and whispered, "When you reach that level, you will inevitably make numerous enemies. Once a war breaks out, you can't escape unscathed even if you killed the other party. Once that happens, the rest of your enemies would surely launch a sneak attack when you're weak. Therefore, instead of saying that Your Majesty fears Qin Wei, it is more appropriate to say that he is worried about getting injured!"

     "I see. It's okay. Then there's nothing much to worry about. This division seems wicked; we just saw it too. They are all so arrogant that I'm almost annoyed!" Xu Que complained, his expression irritated.

     Jiang Hongyan did not know whether to laugh or cry at his words. Do they annoy you?

     Who else in the world can annoy you? Weren't you the one who pissed them off till they ran away in the first place?

     "Ah, let's not talk about it. The more we talk about it, the more I get upset!" Xu Que stopped the topic with a wave.

     Xu Que felt that it was such a pity that he could not kill those three people. If the King of Tough-Acting Fist had been available, he could have used it to establish respect and intimidate his detractors!

     "Well, not joining the division was a good thing! Qin Wei isn't exactly the best of men; as far as I know, the purpose of him cultivating the Divine Son Division wasn't that moral either!" Jiang Hongyan nodded and said gently.

     "Why is it immoral?" Xu Que was uninterested in the Divine Son Division but had wanted to distract Jiang Hongyan's attention. Only when she's absorbed in chatting will his wicked claws find a chance to slip past her defenses. So, he pretended to be a curious baby and asked.

     Jiang Hongyan did not see Xu Que's "misguided thoughts" and responded earnestly, "His plan to nurture the Divine Sons was just for him to control them. He would make them enter Road of Heavenly Ascension, and bring him the Celestial Bone Fruit!"

     "Hmm? What is the Celestial Bone Fruit?" Her words piqued his interest for real, and now he was genuinely curious.

     Jiang Hongyan looked at him and said, "A kind of fruit growing from the remains of an Immortal cultivator. It's a rare medicine that could help to break through the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage!"

     "Can medicine grow out of Immortal cultivators?" Xu Que was astonished.

     Jiang Hongyan chuckled, "It's just hearsay, but according to ancient records, some people did see the remains of an Immortal cultivator on the Road of Heavenly Ascension a long time ago. They plucked a fruit from the bones, absorbed it, and achieved Celestial Stage. However, no one else had ever seen the remains of the Immortal again. Even if they did, they would not dare disclose it to the outside world. That was also precisely why the Emperor had nourished the God-realization Tree with a wisp of my past soul.

     "So that's what it is!" Xu Que nodded, and his eyes narrowed slightly. Was it really that difficult to achieve the Celestial Stage?

     "It's getting late. If you don't rest now, you may not be able to catch tomorrow's war!" At this time, Jiang Hongyan looked at Xu Que and smiled mildly. Ever since last time, she realized that Xu Que could not use his unique sure-kill fist technique as and when he wished. It needed time to recover when he had used it to the limit.

     Xu Que looked out of the window and stared at the night sky. With a nod, he retrieved his hand. As Jiang Hongyan had said, if he could not restore his Taoist Connotation in time, he would miss out on the battle tomorrow. He sat on the futon and soon entered the state of Tao Comprehension, re-examining and re-perceiving his Taoist Connotation.

     Jiang Hongyan sat beside him and looked at him quietly for a long time. After that, her beautiful lips rose slightly, and warmth swept across her beautiful eyes. Before she realized it, she had gotten used to and taken quite a liking to spending this kind of time alone with Xu Que.

     They would stay together, fight together, chat with each other, and practice together, a simple life, a simple flow. It was wonderful. Finally, she closed her eyes and entered a state of meditation.

     ...

     The next day, the trumpet sounded on the battlefield again!

     Both the human cultivators and the Heaven Orc Tribe had rebuilt their armies and landed on the battlefield once again. Battle had commenced!

     This time, Xu Que was late. Recovering his Taoist Connotation took some time, and the distance was slightly far; therefore, he did not bring Jiang Hongyan and came alone. When he finally got to the battlefront, Xu Que became a little worried as he had run out of ideas on how to pull the mob.

     As the King of Tough-Acting Fist was a skill with area-of-effect damage, the efficiency of killing would decrease if the giants were not gathered. However, his eyes lit up when he passed by the series of toilets in the camp, and he entered them quickly. He called out the System and took out hundreds of storage rings! Xu Que began to pinch the many Buddha's Fiery Lotus and squeezed it to the brink of explosion. He then immediately put it into the storage ring, along with the stinky excrements from the dump pit.

     Xu Que never left the toilet for the whole morning. It was not until noon that he burst out of the toilet, satisfied, and went straight to the battlefront. Some of the human cultivators in the camp were shocked when they saw him leave. "Isn't that Li Bai from the Exploding Heavens Faction? Didn't he go to the battlefield today?"

     "Strange, I thought I saw him enter the toilet this morning? Why did he only come out now?"

     "And to leave looking so satiated!"

     All who were curious entered the toilet to check, and they were all stunned speechless. The usually stinky toilet had not even half a crap!

     "My God! Someone had stolen our toilet crap!" The crowd immediately cried out in dismay.

     "Holy cow, is he crazy?"

     "That's terrifying. What's Xu Que doing with the crap he stole?"

     "No, he left with a satisfied face, which looked like...like he just had a full meal!"

     "Crap! I suddenly thought of a bold reason!"

     "Crap! Me too!"

     Then, a series of exclamations rang throughout the camp.

     .....

     At the same time, at the front line, a figure arrived hurriedly. It was Xu Que. He shouted at the top of his lungs from afar, "It's too late to explain. Everyone place your bets! Big or small?" Everyone on the battlefield was so engrossed in fighting that no one paid any attention to Xu Que. Xu Que was upset at their response. The Act-Tough Saint is opening a gambling table. How dare they ignore it?

     Whiz!

     He jumped. Steering a bolt of lightning, he plunged into the center of the battlefield. Only then did the giants of the Heaven Orc Tribe realize Xu Que's arrival. They roared, then collectively decided to ignore him. Instead, they turned away and charged toward the human cultivators.

     "Wow, don't do that! I am neither Li Bai nor Li Xiaoyao. I am Jet Li!" Although Xu Que had changed his outfit, his appearance was still the same as that of his disguise. No one would believe him even if he claimed to be Jet Li. The Giants had learned their lesson after being fooled for two consecutive days. This guy was just here to make trouble. They would live longer if they paid no attention to him!

     "Oh, come on, you're no fun. I'm going home!" Xu Que yelled from boredom like he had lost his pleasure because nobody wanted to talk to him. He turned to leave. Suddenly, something that gleamed slightly fell out of his clothes. It immediately attracted the attention of some Heaven Orc giants! They fixed their eyes on that item, and then their eyes brightened brilliantly, visibly excited.

     "Storage Ring, that's a Storage Ring!"

     "Snatch it! That human kid carries so many best-grade Spirit Stones. They must be hidden in these storage rings!"

     Many giants of the Heaven Orc Tribe were alarmed by the commotion and stomped toward Xu Que, before jumping up suddenly to grab the storage rings. Xu Que continued to fly forward as if he hadn't noticed anything. The storage rings kept falling out while he flew, and the giants behind him began to grab at them madly.

     Some cultivators who noticed what was happening couldn't take it any longer. They hastily reminded Li Bai, "Exploding Heavens Faction Li Bai, your storage rings have fallen out!"

     "What?"

     Hearing their words, Xu Que looked down and paled. He immediately turned around and yelled, "Stop it! Don't touch my storage rings! Don't look inside!"

     The many giants of the Heaven Orc Tribe burst into laughter, overjoyed that they had finally gotten back at Xu Que.

     Don't touch your storage ring?

     Damn, we're going to rob you!

     Don't look inside?

     Crap, so what! We must see it!

     811 The Most Wicked Man Is Always Invincible!

      Numerous soldiers were killing each other on the battlefield! In the chaos, hundreds of Orc soldiers were trying to seize the storage rings "lost" by Xu Que.

     "Don't check the things inside the storage rings!" Xu Que shouted.

     However, the louder he shouted, the more excited those Orc soldiers became. They had been totally annoyed by Xu Que and many of them had tried to tear Xu Que into pieces. Now they were so happy to steal something from Xu Que!

     "Guys, let's drive that mankind guy crazy by opening the storage rings and stealing the treasuries inside!" A soldier of the Heaven Orc Tribe shouted, waving his arms as if they had won.

     "OK!" The rest of more than 100 Orc soldiers who had gotten a storage ring replied delightedly. After that, they started to check the storage rings in their hands!

     The next moment…

     Rumble!

     Along with a big bang, countless dazzling flames gushed out from the storage rings and created a big explosion. The fiery-hot air waves swept out directly. Then, many unknown yellow objects were blown up into small drops and fell along different parabolas on those soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe! Instantly, half of the battlefield was filled with an unprecedented stench.

     The entire area fell silent abruptly as if even the air was frozen! Everyone in this area, including the mankind onlookers and the soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe, was dumbfounded.

     What…is this?

     Why are these feelings and smells so scary?

     Looking at the stinking yellow-and-sticky object in his hand, a soldier of the Heaven Orc Tribe licked it with his tongue. After that, his eyes opened wide and his body started trembling!

     "Ah!" A strident cry came out of his mouth and echoed around the battlefield! "It is excrement!"

     "This is excrement!" The Orc soldier screamed as he ran about wildly in the battlefield.

     Xu Que, who stood at a place 1,000 miles away from the battlefield, was looking at this scene with a wicked smile on his face.

     "Crap!"

     All the soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe came to themselves at this time. They were totally annoyed and almost lost their minds because of rage. The mankind cultivators in this area were also puzzled by what they saw. None of them expected Xu Que could use such a disgusting method.

     He had placed excrement in the storage rings. Then, he exploded those excrements into small drops and threw them at numerous soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe!

     This is too wicked!

     They had never heard of a person who could throw excrement on his enemies during a combat!

     "So, it is still the old ingredients and the old smell, right? Hah-hah, you are so angry! Come here to beat me up!" Xu Que ridiculed them with a wicked smile as he covered his nose. All the soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe who had been tainted by excrement lost control of themselves because of their unprecedented anger.

     "Kill him!"

     "We prefer death to humiliation. He has broken the rules. We can't let him live!"

     "I will throw him into a cesspit!"

     Many Orc soldiers roared angrily as they dashed toward Xu Que. Xu Que nodded his head in satisfaction. In front of thousands of his enemies, he clenched his fist and uttered some words calmly, "The King of Tough-Acting Fist!"

     Bang!

     Along with a dull sound in the void, Xu Que attacked with his fist! A giant fist shadow took shape above the clouds. Then, it fell down directly with magnificent momentum and Taoist Connotation!

     Rumble!

     Instantly, the fist created a blank area in the formation of the Heaven Orc Tribe. Numerous Orc soldiers were exploded into blood mists! However, this could not scare those crazy Orc soldiers, who still roared angrily and dashed toward Xu Que. They planned to tear Xu Que into pieces with their quantitative superiority!

     Xu Que kept attacking with his fist, standing directly in front of them.

     "The Unique King of Tough-Acting Fist!"

     "The Explosive King of Tough-Acting Fist!"

     "The Invincible King of Tough-Acting Fist!"

     Boom!

     Boom!

     Boom!

     Explosive sounds came from the battlefield one after another. More and more Orc soldiers were turned into blood mists.

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in acting tough successfully. The reward is 13,000 Acting Tough Points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in upgrading successfully. The current stage is Level 9 of the Void Training Stage!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in upgrading successfully. The current stage is Level 10 of the Void Training Stage!"

     Ding! "The Host has reached the summit of the Void Training Stage! Before crossing the Heavenly Tribulation, all the experience points will be saved in the Experience Pool automatically!"

     The warning tones of the System came in one after another!

     "Phew!" Xu Que let out a sigh of relief. After three days' hard work, he managed to realize his upgrade at last!

     He had reached the summit of the Void Training Stage. He would reach the Form Synthesis Stage after crossing the Heavenly Tribulation.However, before that, he would merge with his Taoist Body to enhance his strength remarkably as he crossed the Heavenly Tribulation. At that time, as a cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage, his strength would be more horrible!

     "Hah-hah-hah, the happy hours always pass by quickly. Guys, I need to go now!"

     Xu Que said goodbye to those soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe who continued to rush toward him! He was really reluctant to say goodbye to the scene where thousands of enemies were dashing toward him. After all, those Orc soldiers were walking Experience Points! It was a pity that he had used up his Taoist Connotation, so he had to stop this slaughter.

     Of course, he had reached the summit of the Void Training Stage. He could fight those cultivators at the Form Synthesis Stage with other magic arts. However, he could also kill dozens or hundreds of enemies with one King of Tough-Acting Fist. With other magic arts, he could kill several enemies with many attacking moves. It was too inefficient. Xu Que didn't have the patience to fight in this way.

     "Farewell, guys!" Xu Que nodded to the Orc soldiers. Then he turned around and started to dash toward the front campsite.

     At this moment, those Orc soldiers didn't want to ever let him go. They were so angry that they planned to tear Xu Que into pieces. Therefore, they started to chase Xu Que crazily. Xu Que waved his hand as he flew forward, "Guys, stop sending me off, we have to part sooner or later!"

     Roar!

     The Orc soldiers roared angrily. Nobody wants to send you off! If you are not a coward, come back to confront us!

     The Orc soldiers continued to chase Xu Que, picking up speed. The mankind cultivators were speechless after seeing this.

     This guy is really a weirdo! How could he be so shameless?

     "This kind of person should be notorious! But why haven't I heard of him before?" someone asked suspiciously.

     "I'm afraid he is using a fake name! However, we really haven't heard of a shameless person like him! As expected, the most wicked man is always invincible!" Someone exclaimed, shaking his head.

     Rumble! Rumble!

     At this time, countless soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe continued to chase Xu Que. "Alas! Stop sending me off. You don't want me to go, I also don't want to leave you! You are so enthusiastic! Come on, let's fight for another 300 rounds!" Xu Que said as he stopped. Then, he turned around and clenched his fist again!

     Whoosh!

     All at once, the soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe who were chasing Xu Que were surprised and couldn't help but stop.

     "Heh-heh-heh, you've been fooled! Dumbasses!"

     Xu Que smiled wickedly as he ignited a Divine Escape Spell. Then he disappeared from the battlefield directly.The battlefield fell silent instantly. Then, hysterical roars started to echo all around the area. The Orc soldiers were steaming mad!

     …

     In the distance, on the city wall at mankind's front line, Qin Wei, a middle-aged General, was looking at the battlefield calmly. Then, he glanced at the young men beside him and said seriously, "You mean he refused to join the Divine Son Division and smashed the ID plate of the Divine Son Division?"

     "General, this guy is so arrogant. Please allow me to punish him!" A man in a red robe said, bowing.

     Together with the man in a green robe and the man who wore a mask, they were the three people who were driven away by Xu Que last night!

     Qin Wei squinted his eyes and shook his head calmly, "I'm afraid you are not powerful enough to punish him! Forget it, I will go with you tonight to find him. This guy must join the Divine Son Division and become one of my underlings!"

     After that, a strand of creepy light appeared in the depth of his eyes!

     812 What Is He Going To Do?

      Xu Que left the battlefield and went back to the hotel in the ancient city close to the front line again. When he had left in the morning, he was at Level 8 of the Void Training Stage. When he returned in the evening, he had already reached the summit of the Void Training Stage!

     Even though Jiang Hongyan had mentally prepared herself, she was still shocked by Xu Que's rocketing upgrade. She could also tell that Xu Que's foundation was quite solid in realizing this rapid upgrade, and it wouldn't disappear like a dream.

     "Little girl, tomorrow I won't go to the battlefield. I will start to prepare my upgrade to the Form Synthesis Stage!" Xu Que said delightedly as he lay down on his bed after entering their room.

     If he could reach the Form Synthesis Stage, he would no longer be afraid of the cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage, which would bring him a carefree life. Of course, the most important thing was to seize the God-realization Tree from the Imperial Palace and get back that strand of soul for Jiang Hongyan. Otherwise, if the Emperor stepped into the Celestial Stage, something terrible would happen!

     Therefore, even though it seemed as if Xu Que was quite relaxed, he didn't dare to slack off for one minute. When he lay down on his bed, he started to restore his Taoist Connotation. He knew clearly that he had made a lot of noises in the last three days, although three days were only a short period.

     For example, the Divine Son Division, General Qin Wei, and the Emperor, who didn't show up but could always know what they were doing, would probably have noticed him.

     "Have a good rest. Tomorrow I will be your protector when you cross the Heavenly Tribulation!" Jiang Hongyan said as she walked over to him with a wet towel in her hands. She was graceful and elegant. With a faint smile on her extremely beautiful face, she began wiping the sweat off Xu Que's face carefully and gently.

     Xu Que had been fatigued with the combat and the journey. However, he felt so relaxed when Jiang Hongyan did this to him. His mind became clearer, which even accelerated the restoration of his Taoist Connotation!

     Soon, night fell!

     Jiang Hongyan had restarted her cultivation on the futon again. Her calm breath filled the room with a faint fragrance.

     After midnight, Xu Que opened his eyes and sat up on the bed suddenly.

     He frowned as he looked at the door.

     After reaching the summit of the Void Training Stage, his Soul Strength had become more powerful than before. He had sensed several auras were coming toward their room. One aura was quite powerful, which had suffocated him a bit even though it was still far away from their room.

     The Great Vehicle Stage? Xu Que concentrated even harder.

     At this time, only two cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage could visit them: Qin Wei or the Emperor! However, Xu Que thought the possibility of Qin Wei was higher, for the momentum of the Emperor would be even more overbearing!

     Jiang Hongyan opened her eyes and said calmly, "Little brat, it's time to go!"

     Xu Que smiled as he stood up. "We will leave. But before leaving here, I will charge some interest to them and let them know they can't bully a handsome and honest man like me casually!"

     Boom!

     The next moment, a magnificent momentum gushed in from outside the hotel. After that, several dull air-rending sounds could be heard. Several figures appeared outside the door.

     "Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction, the General orders you to come out!" a voice spoke.

     Bang! The door was broken down by a violent force. More than ten figures appeared in front of Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan. All the intruders were young men and young women who had reached the Crossing Calamity Stage. Arrogance and superiority could be sensed from these people, who were staring at Xu Que coldly and aggressively.

     It seemed they were ready to attack directly if Xu Que refused to go out. However, Xu Que was so happy for now he could act tough again!

     "What? You three came back again! You also brought so many people with you. Is my handsome face so attractive for you?" Xu Que asked with a wicked smile.

     The man in the red robe, the man in the green robe, and the man who wore a mask, who were driven away by Xu Que last night, were also present.

     "Heh-heh, Li Bai, it is useless for you to have a big mouth now. Your mistake in ruining the Divine Son Division's ID plate is unforgivable. The General ordered us to punish you!" The man in the red robe said with a cold smile.

     "Ah? What did you say?" Xu Que asked, blinking his eyes innocently in shock, "Did I ruin the ID plate of your Divine Son Division? My fellow cultivator, although you are ugly, you can't talk nonsense! I haven't even seen an ID plate of the Divine Son Division. How could I ruin one?"

     His words and his innocent expression shocked the intruders. The man in the red robe, the man in the green robe, and the man who wore a mask opened their eyes wide in surprise immediately.

     What the hell?

     Does this guy lose memory?

     Damn! Is he going to frame us?

     "Li Bai, what…do you mean?"

     "I'm warning you. Don't play dumb here!"

     "Last night, when we came here to invite you, you insulted the Divine Son Division and ruined the ID plate! Now, are you going to deny that?"

     The three of them shouted hurriedly. They didn't want to take the blame for Xu Que! Moreover, none of them expected Xu Que, who was so arrogant last night, could frame them with this dirty trick by acting dumb tonight.

     If the General believed Xu Que, they would at least be severely punished!

     "Eh, my fellow cultivators, what…are you talking about? Last night, you asked me to stop acting ostentatiously on the battlefield, or you will…. Your threat bothered me for the whole day!" Xu Que said as he covered his chest with his hands and looked at them pitifully with his innocent eyes.

     All at once, the rest of the intruders from the Divine Son Division fixed their eyes on the three unlucky guys.

     The man in the red robe shouted angrily, "Don't believe him! He is framing us!"

     "You…how can you say that?" Xu Que pointed at the man in the red robe immediately, like a little boy who had been wronged.

     "Crap!" The man in the green robe couldn't stand Xu Que's disgusting expression anymore. He yelled angrily and was about to attack Xu Que.

     At this time, a young woman who was tall and slim among the intruders said coldly, "Enough!"

     The man in the red robe and the man in the green robe stopped talking immediately.

     The tall woman stared at Xu Que and said in a low, expressionless voice, "I don't care whether you framed them or they framed you! Tonight, you should get out of this room and meet the General! But…" She paused a bit and continued to say with a strand of disdain and sarcasm, "Before that, we want to know why you could join the Divine Son Division as a cultivator at the Void Training Stage!"

     "I…I.…" Xu Que couldn't help but step back perplexedly. Then he said diffidently, "Actually, I also don't know. Maybe I could join the Divine Son Division just because I…am handsome!"

     Seeing his reaction, the intruders from the Divine Son Division became more disdainful. A strand of sarcastic smile appeared on the lips of the tall woman.

     Just at this time, Xu Que raised his head and asked suddenly, "What about this?" Then, he waved his hand abruptly.

     A silver-haired figure appeared behind the intruders suddenly. It was Xu Que's Taoist Body!

     Whoosh!

     The Taoist Body waved the black rod that was raised high in the air. In the moonlight, a strand of creepy light appeared on the black rod!

     813 Just Because Of My Invincible Strength!

      "Watch out!" Xu Que shouted as he dashed forward rapidly.

     Bang! Bang!

     Before the intruders had time to react, two of them had been knocked unconscious on the ground. Then, the black rod was waved toward the tall woman, who was trying to dodge it. Xu Que blocked the black rod with his hand.

     Patter!

     His feeble palm hit the Taoist Body.

     Whoosh!

     The Taoist Body stepped back and disappeared instantly! The entire process only lasted for an instant.

     The intruders changed their expressions as they looked at the two who were lying on the ground in terror.

     What the hell was that?

     His sneak attack was too fast!

     If "Li Bai" didn't warn them in time, maybe all of them would have been knocked down.

     "Nice! Your response was quick!" the tall woman said perfunctorily as she looked at Xu Que. No gratitude could be sensed from her words.

     Xu Que smiled modestly, "It's nothing. The Divine Son Division is a long-cherished institution for me! How could I allow you to be attacked by someone! Ouch.…"

     Suddenly, Xu Que frowned and covered his bleeding palm, which had been wounded by the black rod just now. Seeing that, the intruders changed their expressions slightly. They started to look at Xu Que in a slightly milder way. After all, this young man at the Void Training Stage was wounded because of them!

     But…he is still too weak! He was wounded by blocking only one rod attack. He doesn't deserve a position in the Divine Son Division!

     Someone shook his head. Their contempt for Xu Que was still not changed.

     "It's OK, just a small scratch! I can relax as long as all of you are OK!" Xu Que said, shaking his head slightly. An undaunted expression appeared on his face.

     Holy crap!

     Those three unlucky guys couldn't stand it anymore. Their eyes were open wide and they felt like they were about to spit blood!

     What the hell is this?

     Yesterday, this guy looked down upon the Divine Son Division arrogantly. How could he change his style tonight?

     He managed to grasp an opportunity through this accident! Does this mean the three of us have to take the blame for him?

     At the thought of this, they were totally rattled.

     "Don't believe him! The one who attacked us just now might be his partner!" the man in the green robe said, clenching his teeth angrily.

     The man who wore a mask also frowned and said seriously, "This is the border area. Nobody dares to attack us here! The one who attacked us just now was quite questionable!"

     "Enough!" The tall woman said as she glanced at the three unlucky guys coldly. The three unlucky guys closed their mouths immediately.

     Seeing that, Xu Que couldn't help but laugh to himself. He had managed to sow distrust among the intruders with the cooperation of his Taoist Body, so that the three unlucky guys could take the blame for him. However, the internal conflict expected by Xu Que didn't occur. The tall woman turned to Xu Que abruptly.

     "As I said just now, I don't care whether you frame them or they frame you! I will ask you the same question. How could you earn a position in the Divine Son Division as a cultivator at the Void Training Stage, who was wounded by just blocking a rod attack?" she asked aggressively.

     Xu Que's eyes widened. He was as disgusted by her question as if a fly had flown into his mouth!

     She is so mean! I've just saved you, although it was just a trick. You still want to embarrass me! Now you should accept the consequence!

     "I don't know!" Xu Que shook his head and shrugged his shoulders slightly as he said in a low voice, "Maybe it is just because of my invincible strength!"

     Your invincible strength?

     Hearing that, the intruders from the Divine Son Division started to look at Xu Que dumbfoundedly as if they had just heard some absurd words.

     Whoosh!

     At this time, a silver-haired figure appeared behind the intruders again, who started to attack the intruders with a black rod rapidly!

     "What?"

     The intruders sensed something was wrong, so they changed their expressions and set about trying to dodge the attack. However, the next moment, the back of their heads were hit by the black rod heavily!

     Bang!

     Bang!

     Bang!

     Along with the dull sounds, all of them were knocked unconscious. When they were about to lose consciousness, they could see the wicked smile of Xu Que who was standing in front of them!

     …

     At the same time, outside the hotel, a strongly built middle-aged man was standing with his hands behind his back. He was looking at the sky thoughtfully! Apparently, this man was Qin Wei, the mankind's front line General and the founder of the Divine Son Division! Beside him, an underling was standing with deep reverence.

     After several breaths, the underling said, bowing, "General, each Divine Son of the division is very arrogant. If they behave rudely in there, I'm afraid Li Bai…"

     "I don't think they dare to kill the one who I want!" Qin Wei said in a low voice with his eyes flashing like lightning.

     The underling was confused, "General, why did you send them here…?"

     "Heh, you said the Divine Sons of the division are arrogant just now. For me, that Li Bai is an arrogant man who dared to ruin the ID plate of the Divine Son Division. He should be punished, so that he could know he is not the only genius in this world!"

     Qin Wei said with a cold smile, "Some people will obey orders only after being disciplined!"

     …

     At this time, those so-called geniuses of the Divine Son Division had already been subdued by Xu Que. Xu Que locked the True Core Strength of those intruders with his Taoist Connotation in the wing room.

     Jiang Hongyan, who had witnessed the whole process, said embarrassedly, "They will definitely be pissed off after coming to themselves!"

     "Heh-heh, that's exactly what I want!" Xu Que said with a smile. Then, he purchased some Refreshing Pills from the System and inserted the pills into the mouths of those intruders. In a short while, the intruders woke up. Then, they tried to activate their True Core Strength to kill Xu Que immediately.

     However, the next moment, they were totally stunned. All their True Core Strengths had been locked up by an overbearing Taoist Connotation tightly.

     "How could this be?" Someone shouted in surprise.

     "This Taoist Connotation…is against nature!"

     The tall woman turned to Xu Que and yelled coldly, "Xu Que, how dare you do this to us!"

     "Oh, yeah! Right, I did that to you, so what? Come and bite me!" Xu Que said in elation.

     The intruders were so annoyed but could only stare at Xu Que angrily.

     "Humph! You can only attack others from behind! When we break your lock, we'll never let you go!"

     "We planned to teach you a lesson by punishing you. But you attacked us sneakily, now you have to accept the unavoidable consequences!"

     "The General is just outside this hotel. If we shout at him, I'm afraid you will die immediately!"

     All the intruders were threatening Xu Que as they stared at him angrily!

     814 You’ll Die If You Don’t Talk Big!

      "I'll give you one last chance to let us go and apologize to us by kowtowing! Otherwise...the consequences will go beyond your imagination!"

     The tall woman snorted as she stared at Xu Que coldly. The remaining people were quite arrogant. They even tried to threaten Xu Que with the Generals outside. However, when they spoke, they deliberately lowered their voices. It seemed they didn't want the Generals to perceive their dilemma at the moment! After all, they were all geniuses of the Divine Son Division. If the General knew they had been defeated by a young man at the Void Training Stage, they would be severely and terribly punished. The Divine Son Division would be humiliated. Therefore, they were even more reluctant to startle the General than Xu Que was!

     "It seems that I need to help you figure out a truth!"

     At this time, Xu smiled indifferently, but said nothing. Then he purchased a large jar from the System store!

     Patter! He opened the jar and started to pour liquid on all the people! The people were totally annoyed, "How dare you! What are you going to do?"

     "What did you pour on us?"

     "Wait, it smells like...kerosene?" Someone sniffed it, and said in surprise.

     "Yes, this is kerosene!"

     Xu Que smiled. Patter! Then a green flame appeared on his fingertip.

     This flame...is he going to set fire to kill us?

     The people of the Divine Son Division could not keep their seats anymore.

     They knew the flame on Xu Que's fingers was very extraordinary. Normally, this flame wouldn't cause any damage to them. But at this moment, their True Core Strengths were locked. If they were burned by this flame, they would die here without the protection of their True Core Strength!

     "Li Bai, you...don't do anything reckless. The Generals are outside!" The man in red warned anxiously as he forced himself to calm down.

     The tall woman and the remaining people also stared at Xu Que as if they were about to swallow him alive! After all, they were just angry at this moment for they thought Xu Que was trying to scare them and didn't dare to kill them!

     Xu Que smiled as he asked with the green flame in his hand, "Come on, tell me the truth that you have realized!"

     What did we realize?

     The people of the Divine Son Division were suddenly stunned. Then they got so annoyed that they almost started to curse at Xu Que.

     You attacked us secretly and locked our cultivation achievements! Then you poured kerosene on us and started to scare us by making a flame in front of us.

     How could you ask what we have realized at this time?

     Just stop your nonsense!

     Nobody is in the mood to realize truths!

     "OK, for you are the ugliest one, I'll give you a chance to tell me what you have realized?" At this time, Xu Que placed the flame in front of the man in green and asked him this question with a smile.

     The man was totally frightened by the flame. He did his best to move back to stay away from the flame.

     "Tsk-tsk-tsk, how stupid you are!" Xu Que shook his head and said exasperatedly, "I have put the fire in front of you, don't you want to blow it out? Actually, what I want to say is…you will die if you don't blow it out (what I mean is if you don't talk big)."

     After that, Xu Que stood up calmly and flipped his finger! The green flame suddenly fell on those young men and women of the Divine Son Division.

     The people, who were thinking about the meaning of "if you don't talk big" and puzzling, changed their expressions abruptly when they saw Xu Que throw the flame at them!

     "No!"

     "Stop!"

     The sound of their screams was echoing all around the area!

     Rumble!

     The next moment, the kerosene on them ignited. Fiery flames started to burn their bodies directly!

     "Ah!"

     "General, save us!"

     "Li Bai, I'll try to kill you till my last breath!"

     The people started to scream hysterically.

     As cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage, they could only stay alive for a while under the attack of the Molten Green Lotus when their True Core Strength was locked.

     Whoosh!

     At this time, a figure rushed into the hostel abruptly. The figure was so fast that it appeared in a blink of an eye!

     Swish!

     He gently waved his hand. Then a gust of violent wind swept out from his sleeve, which put out the mystical fire on the people of the Divine Son Division instantly. When the mystical fire was put out, the people had already been seriously wounded and their clothes had been totally burnt up and their burnt black skin was exposed embarrassedly.

     However, they did not care about the pain, but shouted immediately as they looked at the figure in awe, "Thank you, General! Please forgive our inability!"

     "You are good-for-nothings!" Qin Wei scolded angrily as he glanced at them coldly. At this moment, he was really angry, but he was also extremely shocked. He didn't expect dozens of geniuses of his Divine Son Division could be defeated by Xu Que!

     If he hadn't arrived in time, these people might have really died here, which would seriously hamper his plan!

     "So, you are the so-called General, right?" At this time, Xu Que looked up at Qin Wei with a smile.

     Qin Wei stared at Xu Que coldly, as his magnificent pressure gushed toward Xu Que.

     Jiang Hongyan immediately stepped out and stood next to Xu Que. Then, a cloud of pressure, which was as powerful as Qin Wei's, gushed out directly!

     Boom!

     Two Taoist Connotations collided and exploded in the air, which created a dull sound.

     "What?" Qin Wei was suddenly stunned as he fixed his eyes on Jiang Hongyan.

     Inexplicably, he got a familiar feeling and vaguely felt that he had met this Taoist Connotation before. At the same time, he was also shocked. A woman at the Crossing Calamity Stage could resist his pressure.

     "Oh, little girl, don't be nervous, just stand behind me. I don't want you to be wounded!" Xu Que suddenly grabbed Jiang Hongyan's little hand and tried to drag her behind him.

     All the people in the area, including Qin Wei, were embarrassed by Xu Que's words.

     A cultivator at the Void Training Stage is trying to protect a cultivator at the Crossing Calamity Stage. Isn't this a joke?

     However, Jiang Hongyan didn't reject Xu Que's wishes, but let Xu Que grab her hand with a faint smile. She knew Xu Que very well. If he could be so relaxed in this situation, it meant he was quite confident and was trying to annoy all the people.

     And he did. All the people were shocked and annoyed when they saw Jiang Hongyan doing what Xu Que wanted her to do.

     Why is this woman at the Crossing Calamity Stage so obedient in front of him?

     Qin Wei also looked at Jiang Hongyan curiously. But he didn't overthink it. Then he asked seriously, "Li Bai, I invited you to join the Divine Son Division out of kindness. You ruined the plate of the Divine Son Division. Now you even tried to kill people of the Divine Son Division. I need your explanation!"

     "Explanation? Heh-heh, the Exploding Heavens Faction never needs to explain to others!" Xu sneered and shook his head. "It may be a little bit arrogant to say it, but compared to the Exploding Heavens Faction, your crappy Divine Son Division is nothing!"

     "Nonsense! if you hadn't attacked us secretly and locked away our True Core Strength, you would already have been a dead man!" The man in green said angrily. The appearance of their General had totally calmed them down and given them more courage!

     Qin Wei also ordered Xu Que, while staring at him in a threatening manner, "You have three breaths to unlock their True Core Strength!"

     "Heh-heh, three breaths? Do you believe I could kill all of them within three breaths?" Xu Que sneered, squinting his eyes.

     Qin Wei was annoyed immediately. He widened his eyes, and his magnificent pressure gushed out again, "How dare you talk this nonsense in front of me?"

     "Shut up!" Xu Que retorted.

     Before Qin Wie had time to react, Xu Que grabbed Jiang Hongyan's hand as he took out a Divine Escape Spell.

     Almost at the same time, he detonated the Taoist Connotations of the people of the Divine Son Division. Then he shouted, "Nobody can save those who the Exploding Heavens Faction want to kill! I'm going to run away after killing them. Is it exciting enough for you?"

     Qin Wei felt something was wrong. His expression changed and he shouted angrily, "Stop!"

     Boom!

     Boom!

     Boom!

     Instantly, the people of the Divine Son Division exploded into clouds of blood mist.

     And, at the same time, Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan disappeared abruptly!

     815 Reaching The Form Synthesis Stage

      "Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction!"

     General Qin Wei, one of the most powerful cultivators of the Xuanzhen Continent, yelled angrily. His shout echoed throughout the entire ancient city!

     Rumble!

     The void trembled from his shouts, which even turned the hostel into a heap of rubble!

     He had spent almost 100 years and enormous effort to cultivate this Divine Son Division! Each member of the Divine Son Division was a rare genius found by him through innumerable hardships! They were his hope to enter the Road of Heavenly Ascension and find the Celestial Bone Fruit. The more geniuses he had, the better chance he would have!

     Now Xu Que had killed more than ten people right in front of him, which was extremely crippling for the Divine Son Division. This meant the possibility for him to find the Celestial Bone Fruit was at least halved. Moreover, the Road of Heavenly Ascension was about to open soon. He didn't have enough time to find more geniuses! His plan, which had been prepared for 100 years, was practically ruined. For all these reasons, one could understand the rage in Qin Wei's heart!

     However, what was more annoying still was that he couldn't vent his anger because Xu Que had escaped!

     …

     Whoosh!

     At the same time, the void in a place that was close to the frontline camp was distorted abruptly. Then,two figures stepped out from the void and landed expertly on the ground: Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan!

     The Divine Escape Spell had brought them to a place near the frontline camp, which was over half a day away from the ancient city. Qin Wei wouldn't catch up with them right away.

     "Hah-hah-hah, little girl, isn't this exciting?" Xu Que started to show off in front of Jiang Hongyan as he landed on the ground.

     He had placed his Taoist Connotation on those people. When he was about to leave, he detonated the Taoist Connotation by using the King of Tough-Acting Fist with the help of the System, which was much more powerful than the normal King of Tough-Acting Fist.

     Even though those geniuses had been powerful, they couldn't survive that attack! Xu Que was quite proud of this attack!

     "Impressive!" Jiang Hongyan smiled and chimed in with Xu Que. She had not expected Xu Que to use his magic arts in this way!

     At the very beginning, she thought Xu Que was about to escape. However, she didn't expect that he would kill those geniuses when he was about to leave. It surprised her a bit.

     "Hey, we've returned to the frontline! Great, a place that is more dangerous should be safer for us! I need to find a place to reach the Form Synthesis Stage!" Xu Que smiled, as he found this place was quite familiar.

     If he managed to reach the Form Synthesis Stage, his Taoist Connotation would be more powerful. The King of Tough-Acting Fist would also be more destructive, which could even threaten cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage!

     "I'll protect you!" Jiang Hongyan looked around and nodded her head. Then she pointed at a mountain in the distance and said, "The Spiritual Qi on that mountain is quite ample!"

     "OK, you are the boss!" Xu Que smiled as he dashed toward the mountain riding on lightning and holding Jiang Hongyan by placing his hand on her small waist.

     In a short while, they landed on the top of the mountain.

     Rumble!

     Xu Que patted the stones on the mountain with his palm to create a cave. Then he stepped into the cave. With the protection of Jiang Hongyan, he summoned his Taoist Body and asked it to sit in front of him with legs crossed.

     "Are you going to merge with your Taoist Body?" Jiang Hongyan was surprised a bit.

     After all, only the big shots in ancient times used to cultivate their Taoist Bodies, which mainly appeared in their Form Synthesis Stage. They merged with their Taoist Bodies during the Great Vehicle Stage to recover their original simplicity.

     However, she had never heard of someone who could merge with his Taoist Body during the Form Synthesis Stage, for cultivators at the Form Synthesis Stage wouldn't have enough control power. Their True Core Strength would be muddled and couldn't realize their full strength!

     "Don't worry, my Taoist Body is different from mediocre ones!" Xu Que replied with a faint smile.

     The Taoist Bodies of others were cultivated by themselves independently. Xu

     Que obtained his Taoist Body from the System's gift bag. All cultivation achievements of his Taoist Body were from his real body!

     He brought his things back into his body, which wouldn't cause any of its acclimatization to suffer!

     "Just be careful!" Jiang Hongyan didn't say more when she saw Xu Que's confident expression. She left the cave after nodding her head. Then she waved her hands. Strands of golden light came out of her fingertips and dashed toward the wall of the cave, which created dazzling patterns.

     Rumble!

     Instantly, the Spiritual Qi in the area gushed in crazily and formed an ever-increasing whirlpool at the entrance of the cave. The Spiritual Qi kept flowing into the cave.

     Almost at the same time, Xu Que was sitting face-to-face with his Taoist Body with legs crossed. He closed his eyes and placed his hands in front of his energy center. The next moment, he opened his Soul Strength to cover the Taoist Body completely with powerful thought strength.

     Soon, the Taoist Body gradually became blurred and transparent. Along with the nourishment of unknown amounts of Spiritual Qi, the Taoist Body became more and more misty.

     …

     At this time, the night had faded gradually. A grey dawn was breaking.

     On the battlefield, many combat squads of the Heaven Orc Tribe were moving toward the frontline of the humans secretly. Behind those combat squads, an elite team composed of 20 Generals at the Crossing Calamity Stage was moving forward by the light of the moon and stars.

     "This mission is very important. You shall tear the human's first line of defense open and force them to retreat. We are responsible for assassinating Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction!" A stern-looking General gave his orders to those combat squads.

     All the Heaven Orc soldiers nodded as they dashed out rapidly and quietly.

     Those 20 Generals gathered together. One of them was checking a round jade in his hand. On this jade, a faint red dot was flickering.

     "Great! The guy is very close to the battlefield. I guess he is hiding in one of the mountains!"

     "This is really a miraculous item. The Soul aura extracted from that guy's storage ring can be precisely used to activate this Qi-Searching Jade Disk!"

     "Although the positioning is not very accurate, it is not difficult to find him! This time we must kill him, or he will pose more threats to the war situation of our tribe in future!"

     After saying that, they nodded slightly, making eye contact.

     Whoosh!

     Then the 20 Generals turned themselves into black figures and started to dash toward the cloudy sky!

     They were heading for the mountain where Xu Que was!

     …

     Soon the sky became brighter and brighter. A golden sun was rising slowly!

     When the sunlight was shining down on the earth, the combat broke out on the battlefield!

     The combat squads of the Heaven Orc Tribe were progressing well. Human cultivators were taken by surprise. Before the human cultivators had been able to organize any counterattack, the main force of the Heaven Orc Tribe pushed forward. The human cultivators could do nothing but retreat. Fierce combat was more and more close to the human's frontline.

     At the same time, 20 Heaven Orc Generals at the Crossing Calamity Stage were searching for Xu Que among several mountains near the battlefield.

     816 The Only One From Ancient To Modern Times

      At this time, in a hidden cave among the barren mountains, Xu Que's Taoist Body had been blurred. The merge stage had started.

     His real body was still sitting on the ground motionlessly like a rock. Innumerable Spiritual Qi was flowing into his nose and mouth slowly.

     In front of him, his white-haired Taoist Body had become totally transparent. Its blood veins and white bones would have been visible to the eye if anyone had been there watching.

     Under the control of Xu Que's powerful Soul Strength, all the bones of the Taoist Body were becoming transparent because of the pressure of Xu Que's Taoist Connotation.

     Crack!

     Suddenly, a crisp sound rang out.

     The Taoist Body cracked abruptly. Its body was full of thickly dotted cracks! Then, the area between its eyebrows started to disintegrate. Skin particles started to fall down like dust. A small hole appeared between its eyebrows.

     After that, a strand of dazzling golden light came out from the small hole and lit up the pitch-dark cave.

     Crack! Crack!

     The hole between its eyebrows was being enlarged along with the crisp sounds.

     The golden light became more and more dazzling. The Taoist Body got darker and darker. When it lost all its essences, only a hollow shell, which was full of impurities, was left.

     Flop!

     At last, a fist-sized hole appeared between the Taoist Body's eyebrows, when a small golden figure stepped out. The small golden figure looked the same as Xu Que. The figure was only as large as a palm. Its body was golden, including its hair, eyes, and pupils.

     Strands of Taoist Ripples, which were full of violent strength, were rotating slowly around its body.

     "Merge!"

     Suddenly, Xu Que's real body shouted in a low voice as he raised his hands in the palm up position.

     Boom!

     All the Spiritual Qi inside and outside of the cave flooded into Xu Que's body abruptly.

     The small golden figure also opened its eyes instantly.

     Boom!

     A strand of chilly Terrifying Spiritual Qi gushed out from the eyes of the small golden figure.

     Swish!

     Instantly, the entire cave was full of the chilly Terrifying Spiritual Qi. The air was even frozen and turned into ice particles. Then the cave was covered with snow!

     The next moment, the small golden figure started to drift forward slowly.

     A hole also appeared between the eyebrows of Xu Que's real body, which was guiding the return trip of the small golden figure!

     …

     Outside the cave, Jiang Hongyan, who was sitting with her legs crossed, was startled by the sound. She looked at the cave, her sparkling eyes full of shock.

     "I didn't expect he would make such a big noise when he merges with his Taoist Body!" She murmured in a low voice, which was like an orchid in a hollow valley.

     However, she didn't worry about Xu Que. A faint smile even appeared on her beautiful face. Because the noisier Xu Que was, the more extraordinary his merger with the Taoist Body would be!

     Maybe a sovereign, who could startle the universe and move the gods, would appear soon!

     However, the sound also startled the Heaven Orc Generals who were searching for Xu Que in the mountains.

     Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

     Twenty black figures rushed over from all directions rapidly and gathered in front of the mountain.

     "I sense great turbulence in the Spiritual Qi. Someone is breaking the cultivation stage!"

     "According to this noise, I guess it would come from Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction!"

     "This is really horrible! He is just at the Void Training Stage. The noise he made could even be mistaken for a cultivator at the Crossing Calamity Stage who is about to reach the Great Vehicle Stage, by someone who doesn't know him!"

     "We have to get rid of him, or he will definitely hamper our great cause of unifying the Xuanzhen Continent in the future!" Several Heaven Orc Generals said gloomily.

     After witnessing Xu Que's performance on the battlefield, they didn't dare to underestimate him anymore. A young man at the Void Training Stage who could kill cultivators at the Form Synthesis Stage easily. Even cultivators at the threshold of the Crossing Calamity Stage were also killed by him. If he reached the Form Synthesis Stage, maybe only cultivators at the summit of the Crossing Calamity Stage or even the Great Vehicle Stage could defeat him!

     "Kill him!"

     Soon, the 20 Generals dashed toward the mountain where Xu Que was as quick as lightning.

     Outside the cave, Jiang Hongyan was startled. She stood up and glanced at those 20 figures calmly. She was as calm as usual. She raised her hand slightly and golden light appeared on her fingertips. Even though she was facing her enemies, her actions were still so graceful and elegant – just like the majestic Empress that she was!

     "Humph! The woman is protecting Li Bai as expected!" The Heaven Orc Generals snorted after recognizing Jiang Hongyan.

     Jiang Hongyan glanced at those Heaven Orc Generals and said calmly, "Anyone who dares to come closer will be killed!"

     Hearing that, the Heaven Orc Generals sneered, "Heh-heh, are you able to kill us?"

     "Human woman, you are overconfident!"

     "You are just at Level 3 of the Crossing Calamity Stage. Everyone of us is more powerful than you! How dare you stand in our way!"

     "We don't want to waste our time killing you. You have three breaths to get lost!"

     "The only one we want to kill today is Li Bai!" The Heaven Orc Generals said coldly.

     Although they looked down upon Jiang Hongyan, they still needed to spend some time to defeat her since she was also at the Crossing Calamity Stage. Therefore, they tried to scare her away.

     However, their words were ignored by Jiang Hongyan. She stood in front of the cave calmly.

     "OK, since you are seeking death, we will satisfy you!" Several Heaven Orc Generals dashed toward her with chilly lights in their eyes.

     "The three of you take this human woman down! The rest of you, follow me into the cave and behead Li Bai!" Another Heaven Orc General gave his order. Then he rushed toward the opening of the cave with the rest of the Generals.

     Jiang Hongyan frowned slightly. In front of the three powerhouses at the Crossing Calamity Stage she stomped the ground with her tiptoes and jumped into the sky. Then she pointed her fingers, which were wrapped by golden light, at them gently.

     Bang!

     Instantly a dull sound rang out.

     Before reaching the opening of the cave, more than ten Heaven Orc Generals were startled by this noise and felt something was wrong. Then, they widened their eyes in disbelief.

     The three generals at the Crossing Calamity Stage who were trying to take down Jiang Hongyan were lying on the ground. Fresh blood was flowing out from their mouths. Now, they were looking at Jiang Hongyan with pale and shocked complexions!

     "How…could this be?"

     "Who is she?"

     "Only one person in the Xuanzhen Continent could be so majestic and powerful from ancient to modern times!"

     "The Empress of Human Beings!"

     All at once, the 20 Heaven Orc Generals figured out Jiang Hongyan's identity, which shocked them completely!

     817 Stay the Crap Away!

      "Anyone who takes a step forward will be killed without mercy!" Jiang Hongyan spoke again, and an unseen air of majesty pressed down on the whole area.

     Swoosh!

     With a wave of her slender arm, countless golden sparkles filled the air. They sliced the atmosphere and slit the throats of the three Crossing Calamity Stage Generals lying on the ground.

     "Tch!"

     Before anyone could react, the three powerful Crossing Calamity Orcs had died an instant death.

     "Tsss!"

     The 17 remaining Heaven Orc Generals inhaled sharply and shivered in their hearts.

     "Withdraw!" All of them yelled at the same time, chilled to their spines. Almost instantly, their troops had retreated a great distance. In the face of the horrifying strength of Jiang Hongyan, they knew deep down that with just the handful of them, going against her would be as futile as trying to break a stone with eggs.

     The powerfulness of the human Empress was just as they heard all those years ago – unrivaled and unparalleled!

     "Holy moly, the human Empress was disappeared for years! Why would she suddenly show up here?"

     "Judging from her appearance, she must have modified her looks! Otherwise, she would have been recognized long ago!"

     "It's too scary! In that case, wouldn't the identity of Li Bai from the Exploding Heavens Faction be even scarier? Even the Empress is protecting him!"

     "This won't do. We have to report this to the higher-ups right now!"

     The Orcs were shaken to their cores as they retreated quickly. They conversed using the art of soundless communication.

     "Yo, since you're here, why not stay to play a game at least?" Right then, a burst of familiar teasing laughter sounded from within the cave. It was none other than Xu Que!

     But the Orc Generals ignored him. The one that they were afraid of was Jiang Hongyan, so they spared no time reacting to Xu Que's sarcasm.

     Boom!

     Suddenly, a massive explosion shook the area.

     He had completely demolished the whole mountaintop that the cave was located on, reducing it into ashes that drifted away with the wind. A tremendous gush of cold air that swept past the area immediately followed.

     Clack!

     Icy snowflakes froze from air particles, forming a world of snow and ice in an instant. The snow then began to spread in all directions.

     "It's...it's snowing?" asked a Heaven Orc General, surprised and confused.

     "No, this is...."

     "The Field of Sinisterness!"

     One of them paled and let out a fearful scream when they realized the situation.

     Thonk! Thonk! Thonk!

     A soft but powerful footstep slowly approached them.

     Xu Que stepped out from the snow with his hands behind his back. He had long glistening black hair that reached to his waist and a gangster-like smile.

     "Come forth, O' sword!" He suddenly lifted his hand and called out softly.

     With a swish, the Qi of the surroundings suspended momentarily and bound the bodies of the Orc Generals, trapping them in the Field of Sinisterness. Then, tens of thousands of ice blades formed from thin air, every single one of them emitted a bone-chilling sinisterness. The tightly packed sword tips glistened like the eyes of poisonous snakes as they pointed at them.

     Crack!

     Almost at the same time, a massive crack of thunder resounded from the skies.

     Ding! "Please be alerted that the Heavenly Tribulations for the Host will arrive at any moment. If you manage to bear it, you will officially step into the Form Synthesis Stage, and obtain a Big Gift Bag of Heavenly Tribulations!" The System notification rang in his mind.

     Heavenly Tribulation?

     Xu Que raised his eyes and a smile formed on his lips. With one hand pointing at the sky, he yelled, "Come forth, O' Thunder!"

     Cr-ack!!

     Instantaneously, a golden lightning bolt as thick as a dragon sliced the sky and crashed down with the enormous pressure of a Heavenly Tribulation!

     Crap!!!

     At that instant, all 17 Heaven Orc Generals paled and almost went insane.

     Oh god!

     You call him a fucking Void Training Stage?

     Who are we to assassinate him? Assassinate their ass!

     "Run! We have to get out of here!" A Heaven Orc General yelled angrily. The rest of the Generals struggled with all their might, trying to break free from Xu Que's Field of Sinisterness.

     "Stop wasting your energy. With the likes of you guys, you are all too weak to escape!" Xu Que smirked coldly and shook his head.

     He had successfully merged his Taoist Body into his Real Body. His powers did not just double, they had instead reached an incredible level as if he had broken through a ceiling within this stage and went to an extreme!

     The Field of Sinisterness was an unexpected gain.

     Back when he annihilated those massive amounts of people, with corpse counts in the millions, sinisterness had infiltrated his body and almost jeopardized his advancement into the Void Training Stage.

     Luckily, his Taoist Body had appeared and absorbed all his cultivation, including that sinisterness.

     Now that his Taoist Connotation was complete and he had become one with his Taoist Body, he could now use the sinisterness that he had nurtured from the start.

     When other cultivators cultivate, they either consciously or subconsciously try to comprehend the Taoist Connotation. Xu Que, on the other hand, had nurtured Sinisterness subconsciously during his cultivation. In other words, as of now, the power of his sinisterness was on par with his Taoist Connotation.

     Now that the Field of Sinisterness had formed, he could describe it as a result of a mutation, an unexpected gain. Ordinary cultivators, even if they were as powerful as these Heaven Orc Generals in the Crossing Calamity Stage, could not break free from it easily once they were trapped!

     Boom!

     The skies darkened and thunderclouds kept forming. An unprecedented 79 Heavenly Tribulations were brewing.

     "Little Missy, stay further back! I gotta concentrate on riding through the tribulations!" Xu Qie looked at Jiang Hongyan and grinned.

     Jiang Hongyan returned a smile and nodded lightly, bouncing off the air with the tip of her shoes and landed further back.

     Those Heaven Orc Generals couldn't process what they had heard.

     There was a lot of information packed in that short sentence Xu Que had made.

     That fella called the Empress of the human race a Little Missy?

     Also, was that lightning that was formulating in the skies not a spell, but his Heavenly Tribulation?

     Oh, freak!

     That was his Heavenly Tribulation?

     Crap, even the Heavenly Tribulations when you cross from the Crossing Calamity Stage to the Great Vehicle Stage would be less scary!

     "Here's our chance! For the heavens to give him a Heavenly Tribulation of this degree, it's clear that the heavens want him dead!" One of the Heaven Orc Generals lit up and transmitted his thoughts soundlessly to his comrades.

     "He is doomed to die from Heavenly Tribulations of such a scale! We can find a chance to kill him then!"

     Someone immediately shook their head in disagreement. "No way, if we go near him when he's undergoing the Heavenly Tribulations, the severeness of the tribulations will multiply, and we will all be caught up in it!"

     "Forget it then, let's first free ourselves from this Field of Sinisterness, then escape when he's undergoing tribulations!"

     "That's right! Anyway, by the look of the current situation, even if we don't do anything, he is destined to die here!"

     "Also, I'm sure that our punishment could be waived with all the information we gathered today!"

     After finalizing their plans using the art of soundless communication, the Orcs decided to escape when Xu Que was undergoing his Heavenly Tribulations. With an escape route settled, they began to ease up and relax. The Orcs looked at Xu Que coldly while trying to escape the Field of Sinisterness. Meanwhile, they couldn't help but gloat at Xu Que's plight. As they see it, with a prelude this intimidating, a young man at the peak of the Void Training Stage could never survive such ferocious Heavenly Tribulations!

     Even them, powerful beings at the Crossing Calamity Stage, would likely be killed by this sort of Heavenly Tribulations.

     "Yah! Tribulations are troublesome as usual! It takes such a long time to formulate every time it wants to strike!" Said Xu Que who kept looking upward, his face irritated. Suddenly, his eyes sparkled as he looked at those Heaven Orc Generals. He said excitedly, "Brothers! Why don't we take this time to play a game of cards?"

     He then ran toward the direction of the Heaven Orc Generals. The group of Heaven Orc Generals was almost scared senseless by his actions. Fear crawled over their faces as they screamed, "Screw you! We don't want to play cards! Don't come over, ahhhh! Stay the crap away!"

     818 This Fella Is Insane!

      "No!"

     With a mischievous smile, Xu Que walked over to the Heaven Orc Generals, ignoring their screams. The dark, ominous lightning clouds followed him as he moved.

     The Heaven Orc Generals were utterly flustered. However, they could not wriggle out of Xu Que's Field of Sinisterness. One of them quickly yelled, "Li Bai, are you insane? If you pull us into your Heavenly Tribulations, we will all die together!"

     It was common knowledge that when multiple cultivators appeared together under the tribulation clouds, the heavens would automatically register that they would bear the tribulations together. When that happened, the strength of the tribulations would be multiplied to match the number of cultivators!

     "Eh, now that you said it, I remember it's quite dangerous. I almost forgot!" Xu Que nodded.

     The orcs thought that he had finally abandoned the idea and heaved a sigh of relief. However, to their dismay, Xu Que did not leave but inched closer instead. He pulled out a green helmet and a cape and put them on. He also quickly pulled out a pile of palm-sized crosses and hung them all over his body.

     "Okay! A Spirit Visage and an Anti-mana Cloak, as well as 20 Banshees Veils. I'd say that these are enough!" Xu Que smiled.

     In actuality, the System had ruled that he could only equip himself with six equipments from the League of Legends at any time. Thus, other than the Spirit Visage and the Anti-mana Cloak that he was currently wearing, he was left with four Banshees Veils for spell resistance. The other 16 were just replacements should they get destroyed by the Heavenly Tribulations.

     "Come on. I'll give out the cards now!"

     Xu Que was well prepared and therefore fearless. He took out a pack of poker cards and sat right beside the orcs, as he waited for the tribulations to strike.

     Crap! The group of Heaven Orcs felt so angry that they almost vomited blood. They had never seen anyone this crazy. Did he really believe that he could survive the tribulations by putting on some flimsy green armor and cloak while wearing crosses all over his body?

     Mind you, that's the golden lightning, the legendary Ancient Catastrophe!

     These days, who else could bear them aside from those powerful demonic beasts?

     "Claim!" Xu Que suddenly shouted after issuing all the cards. The gang of Heaven Orcs all jumped up and almost exploded with anger.

     How could he still be in the mood to claim land at this point in time?

     What the hell was he planning with these pathetic cards?

     "I'm bloody unlucky! If I had known that he was this crazy, I would never have volunteered myself to assassinate him, not over my dead body!" one of the Generals blurted out miserably. For him, dying just like this was too hard to swallow. The rest of the orcs also had anger spelled out on their foreheads, but were powerless to do anything. Even now, they remain locked within the Field of Sinisterness. With Xu Que so close to them, it was as if he had used his Taoist Connotation to hold them down!

     ... ...

     Not far away, Jiang Hongyan stood at the mountain peak. Her eyes shone like stars as she contemplated. She still thought that it was too risky for Xu Que to try to pull this off.

     His tribulations were already unusual and several times more ferocious than that of the ordinary cultivators.

     That was just his Heavenly Tribulations, 79 Heavenly Tribulations in total, for stepping into the Form Synthesis Stage from the Void Training Stage. However, on top of that, he had included 17 powerful orcs in the Crossing Calamity Stage. It was too much of a risk!

     But now, Jiang Hongyan dared not go near the area of tribulations; otherwise, instead of helping Xu Que, she would have worsened the severity of the tribulations. "It might help if I attach some Kismet on him!" Jiang Hongyan suddenly thought of an idea. She closed her eyes, and suddenly, a light formed between her brows.

     Swoosh!

     With a light pop, a piece of green, flawless jade with the shape of a semicircle emerged from her forehead. Glowing sizzles flowed out as they showered onto the earth beneath.

     "I part with my Kismet. May it protect you from the tribulations!" With utmost seriousness, Jiang Hongyan squeezed out some blood from her fingertips. She dabbed it onto the jade, then faced in the direction where Xu Que stood.

     Boom!

     The air suddenly dipped, and a slight wind swept past. An unclear and untouchable mass of heavenly fortune seemed to gather around Xu Que.

     Jiang Hongyan paled as the color of blood faded from her cheeks. The half-moon of jade that she had activated was the Celestial Artifact that had helped her to be reborn, but her cultivation stage was too low to unleash its full power. She could not control it entirely, just part of it. She had gone beyond her abilities to transfer a small part of her Kismet to Xu Que.

     ...

     At the same time, Xu Que suddenly felt a faint breeze sweep past his body. He felt a bit more spirited, like when he had activated the Lucky Aura. He felt comfortable.

     Crack!

     The deafening crack from the skies signaled that the first Heavenly Tribulation was finally about to descend. Within the thundering clouds, the dragon-like golden lightning bolt split the heavens and thundered down! It pierced the heavens with high speed. Armed with a tumultuous power of destruction, it went straight for Xu Que and the Heaven Orc Generals!

     "No!" The Heaven Orc Generals howled in agony.

     Xu Que leaped upward instead and swung out a punch. It was the King of Tough-Acting Fist, with a worth of 3,000 Acting Tough Points! That was the real reason why he had dared to face the Heavenly Tribulations head on.

     However, he was stunned the very next second. The Tough-Acting Fist that he condensed from thin air had missed its target. It was as if that golden lightning had eyes; it moved so fast it avoided the punch the very moment that the fist was formed and swung. It then quickly shot behind him and landed heavily on the Heaven Orc Generals.

     Boom!

     The Heaven Orc Generals instantly exploded into a hot mess of blood and bones. Out of the 17, ten of them died before they could make a sound.

     After all, it IS the Ancient Catastrophe. Back when Xu Que bore the blow for Jiang Hongyan during her Heavenly Tribulations, he was equipped with six anti-spell equipments and had an impenetrable body. Even then, a single strike of golden lightning was enough to throw him before the gates of Hades.

     The immense power of divine punishment was not to be underestimated. Only something as absurdly powerful as the Tough-Acting Fist could go against it!

     "Ayo, what in the world, it's an intelligent lightning bolt!" Xu Que was stumped.

     He had never encountered a lightning bolt that could sense impending danger, much less avoid it. That was so creepy.

     Crack!

     Within the area of the bombardment, the golden lightning had not dissipated. It sprung up from the ground again and crashed toward the final few severely injured Heaven Orc Generals.

     Bam!

     With that, even the last few orcs had turned into blood mist.

     Ding! "Congratulations to Host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting tough! You have been rewarded 8,000 Acting Tough Points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to Host 'Xu Que' for eliminating a powerhouse at the Crossing Calamity Stage! You have been awarded 60 million Acting Tough Points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to Host 'Xu Que' for eliminating a powerhouse at the Crossing Calamity Stage! You have been awarded 60 million Acting Tough Points!"

     ... ...

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host for your first kill of a powerhouse in the Crossing Calamity Stage! You have received a Big Mystery Bag!"

     The System notification rang in his mind. Xu Que almost popped his eyes in disbelief.

     What does that mean? Don't tell him that the Heavenly Tribulations were here to help him?

     He didn't need to use the Tough-Acting Fist to annihilate the 17 orcs in the Crossing Calamity Stage. That had saved him a ton of Acting Tough Points.

     More important, those 17 orcs added up to 1 billion, 20 million, experience points, and he had gotten them all!

     "My tribulation's awesome!" Xu Que almost clapped in joy.

     Boom!

     Suddenly, the lightning that had demolished the 17 Crossing Calamity Stage orcs with two launches sprung up and bolted right toward Xu Que with incredible speed.

     "Hey, did you think that yours truly, the Act-Tough Saint, can't deal with you?" Xu Que smirked and, with a move of his mind, released an astounding amount of Taoist Connotation. Then, under his control, the Taoist Connotation speedily reduced to a rich and thick substance, which he held firmly between his palms.

     Snap!

     The large golden bolt had arrived. Xu Que formed claws with his fingers and pounced toward it!

     Pa! With that sound, Xu Que had captured the whole lightning bolt firmly in his hands. Horrifying energy gushed out of Xu Que's arms. He swung the bolt over his shoulder and then slammed it hard into the ground.

     Boom!

     With one hard hit, the entire lightning crashed into the ground, forming a seemingly bottomless crevice. The glow of the lightning bolt dimmed. But before the golden lightning could do anything, Xu Que threw it over his shoulder again and smashed it into another part of the ground.

     "Naughty!"

     "You're too naughty!"

     "Try being naughty again!"

     Boom! Boom! Boom!

     After a few explosions, with Xu Que's curses in the mix, the whole peak was destroyed by the smashing. Not far away, Jiang Hongyan was speechless at what she saw. She had seen the Heavenly Tribulations chase cultivators as they ran, but she had never seen someone smashing the bolts as if they were snakes.

     Boom!

     At last, with the sound of one final vigorous explosion, Xu Que had finally broken the first stroke of lightning apart. It cracked into several small golden beams, all of which he forcefully absorbed. Almost instantly, the thunderclouds up above boiled and rolled. Their pressure became more potent than before.

     Xu Que raised his gaze to the skies and smiled. He shouted to Jiang Hongyan, "Little Missy, wait for me here! I'm off to the battlefield!"

     As soon as Xu Que said that, he leaped into the sky. With thunderclouds hovering above him, he flew toward the battleground.

     819 I Missed You All So Much!

      At this moment, the flames of war raged across the battlefield. The Heaven Orc Tribe attacked ferociously. With a raiding team of dozens of giants, they had successfully torn through the first line of defense of the human cultivators. Then, the army pressed in and launched a full-on attack. It was amazingly effective!

     Boom!

     Blinding and eminent spells roared atop the battlefield. Figures of the defeated fell steadily through the air, among which were human cultivators and giant orcs. If you were counting, you could see that humans formed the majority. There was a reason for the humans being so severely beaten up and being forced to retreat. Xu Que had to take half of the responsibility.

     In the beginning, the humans had been vigilant. They fought aggressively with the Heaven Orc Tribe, where they were locked in a fierce struggle. However, just a few days ago, Xu Que suddenly appeared on the battlefield. In only three days, he slaughtered the giants like ants and attracted all their attention and hatred.

     Human cultivators could do nothing but watch during this whole process. Too stunned, they had involuntarily relaxed their vigilance. They had formed a tacit understanding that Xu Que was whom the Heaven Orc Tribe was afraid of and that, with Xu Que present, the orcs would not attack them so quickly. Nevertheless, the orcs had developed into such a colossal force today, they were not to be trifled with.

     After three days of 'Xu Que chaos', they resolutely went against the norm. With great decisiveness, they dispatched dozens of large teams of Heavenly Orcs to launch a sudden attack. Should they fail, the Heavenly Orcs would be even more demoralized.

     However, should they succeed, they would have a good chance of taking over the area. Now, it seemed that the orcs were right; victory was within their reach.

     "Kill! As long as it's a human, kill them all! We the Heaven Orc Tribe do not let the prisoners live!" On the battlefield, the Generals of the Heavenly Orcs roared and shouted, boosting their morale. Blinded by the battle spirit, countless giants of the Heaven Orc Tribe rushed madly forward.

     On the other hand, Qin Wei, the only person at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage, was not in the camp. The remaining dozen people of the Divine Son Division were arrogant and unconcerned. Without Qin Wei's orders, they refused to join the war and looked on coldly. As a result, the hearts of the people fell apart quickly. Under the fierce impact of the giant beasts, the cultivators became increasingly demoralized.

     The battle situation of the whole battlefield could be described as crushing. The human cultivators were beaten to a pulp, and their formations were chaotic. Many people simply ran aimlessly about, and they promptly turned into free kills for the giants.

     "We are finished. The battle is over. Let's run!" Someone finally broke down and suggested in panic.

     "He's right! We are not real soldiers anyway; we are fighting just for merit, so in the face of such an impossible war, there is no need to die in vain!" Someone immediately responded.

     However, these people immediately attracted the glare of many cultivators.

     "Hear yourself! We are holding down the territory of our people. Are we going to hand over our land to the orcs?" said a righteous man, his face red with anger.

     "Yes! When did we humans fall to be this pathetic? Can you please have some guts?"

     "Kill! At most, we die! To preserve the honor of the people, I'm willing to battle to the death!"

     "Kill!"

     Many people still did not want to retreat. They roared thunderously and rushed to the battlefield! Nevertheless, with their strength alone, they could not compete with the orcs, who outnumbered and outlasted them. The human cultivators were still retreating!

     "Ha, ha, ha, I told ya! In front of us, humans are just like a group of ants!"

     "Look at how vulnerable they are. What a joke!"

     "Those men, including Li Bai, were so white and tender! Such a thin frame, they would lose to even the women of my family!"

     "By taking over this territory, we must wash all the cities within this radius with pools of blood, to prove the dignity of our race!"

     "Good, well said! Ha, ha, ha, we must kill to our heart's content!"

     The Heaven Orc giants laughed proudly and thought that victory was imminent. It was as easy as pickpocketing!

     Boom!

     Just then, thunder burst from afar across the sky.

     At first, nobody paid attention to it. After all, the battlefield was chaotic enough. The various explosions of spells going off were so deafening that no one cared about the few thunder cracks. However, the sky quickly grew darker. The thunder sounded louder by the second, and many people began to notice something wrong.

     "What's the situation?"

     "Why is the sky getting darker and darker?"

     "And that thunder! Something is wrong!"

     "The atmosphere is weird too. There is a sense of oppressive suffocation, and it's intensifying!"

     Both the human cultivators and the orcs slowed down their battle and begun to check the skies distractedly. Not long after, a figure propping a large thundercloud above him finally appeared in their vision. It was Xu Que! He had arrived from far away. His speed was fast, and the thundercloud over his head contained a second bolt of golden lightning. It was larger than its predecessor!

     Boom!

     Deafening thunder boomed again.

     Xu Que had arrived near the battlefield just on time. The second golden lightning came at last and, with unfathomable speed, flew toward Xu Que and chased him in a crazy manner.

     "OMG!" The whole audience suddenly paled and screamed in alarm!

     "Crap, isn't this fella Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction?"

     "He's crossing his Heavenly Tribulations!"

     "That can't be! Wasn't he at the fifth or sixth level of the Void Training Stage just the other day? Why did the Crossing of his Calamity Stage take place so quickly?"

     "Come on, run! His tribulations seem wrong!"

     "What the hell, a bolt of golden lightning? Ancient Catastrophe?"

     "Li Bai, you mother. Don't run over to us!"

     "Crap, Li Bai, don't come over, you – !"

     When the cultivators saw the enormous golden lightning behind Xu Que, they were immediately terrified and howled. And so, especially, did the orcs. They almost spewed blood on the spot.

     With just a bit more time, they would have crushed the human race, and victory would be won! However, Xu Que came out of nowhere again and rushed to them while bearing his Heavenly Tribulations; he had intended to drag them into his tribulations!

     However, most of the cultivators of the human race were surprised and pleased that Xu Que had come with his calamity thunderclouds. Xu Que's arrival had suddenly boosted their morale and confidence. Especially so when he arrived with the thunderclouds. Many people had already guessed what he wanted to do! Suddenly, many human cultivators saw hope. They cried out silently in their hearts that the human race is saved!

     "Be careful!" Xu Que warned the crowd from midair.

     Everyone went still for a moment. Before anyone could respond, they heard Xu Que continue to shout, "Thunder is coming, and so is the rain! Time to collect your laundry!"

     Boom!

     As soon as his voice fell, another deafening thunder cracked in the sky. No one could keep their mouths from twitching.

     Rain your ass!

     Collect your goddamn clothes!

     You're crossing your Calamity Stage for god's sake, and you've still got the time to fool around?

     "Eh? Orcs, you are here again?"

     Xu Que glued his eyes on the giant beasts. Pleased and surprised, he said, "It's great that there are so many present today. I missed you all so much! Let's shake hands and embrace to promote friendship between the two races!"

     After saying that, Xu Que stepped on his lightning bolt and flew toward the Heaven Orc giants, at the speed that only Xu Que himself could surpass!

     820 Just Throw All Your Remaining Tribulations At Me!

      "Holy crap!"

     "Are you insane?"

     "Stay away!"

     "Oh, no, run or all of us will die here!"

     All at once, the soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe were thrown into a state of great panic. The attack formation, which had been marching forward courageously with high morale, was all of a sudden at sixes and sevens.

     The Heavenly Tribulation brought here by Xu Que crushed the Orc soldiers' fighting wills immediately. This was the Ancient Catastrophe. The golden lightning was powerful enough to intimidate and kill anyone here. Even the cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage or the Great Vehicle Stage didn't dare to come any closer.

     Because once they were close, they would have to cross the Heavenly Tribulation according to their current level again! And the Heavenly Tribulation had reached the level of the Ancient Catastrophe!

     Many people hadn't seen the Ancient Catastrophe in their whole lives, even if they had reached the Great Vehicle Stage. Now, a young man at the Void Training Stage was rushing to them with the Ancient Catastrophe. The only thing they could do was to run for their lives.

     The battlefield was in a mess. The mankind cultivators saw Xu Que was coming. They knew their job was done, so all of them retreated at the same time as if they had reached a tacit agreement.

     The soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe were running away crazily. However, it seemed Xu Que had fixed his eyes on them. He started to chase them enthusiastically.

     "My fellow villagers, I'm coming!"

     "My fellow villagers, don't run!"

     "My fellow villagers, I am here to perform heartwarming activities!" Xu Que shouted as he chased the Orc soldiers with a wicked smile.

     The Orc soldiers, who began running even faster, almost spit blood because of anger.

     Fellow villagers?

     Nobody is your fellow villager!

     Nobody needs your heartwarming activities!

     "What? You are afraid of this lightning, right? It's OK, let me kill it with a punch!" Xu Que, who had appeared above the Orc soldiers, turned around and threw the King of Tough-Acting Fist, which consumed 5,000 Acting Tough Points, at the golden lightning abruptly.

     Ordinarily, the King of Tough-Acting Fist was not powerful enough to intimidate the golden lightning. But this one, which consumed 5,000 Acting Tough Points, was powerful enough. As before, the golden lightning dodged Xu Que's punch. He wanted to tell the golden lightning that Xu Que was not someone it could mess with casually.

     Crack!

     The golden lightning changed its target and dashed toward the Orc soldiers thickly dotted below. Anyway, this was an area for cultivators to cross the Heavenly Tribulation. The golden lightning could attack anyone at will.

     Rumble!

     Instantly, the enormous golden lightning exploded in the crowd and created a deafening sound. Numerous golden lightning chains were stampeding, which covered hundreds of soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe.

     All at once, many Orc soldiers were killed instantly. Those who were close to the center of the explosion were smashed into pieces directly.

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in killing a cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage. The reward is 20,000,000 Experience Points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in killing a cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage, the reward is 20,000,000 Experience Points!"

     …

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in acting tough successfully, the reward is 12,000 Acting Tough Points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in acting tough successfully, the reward is 13,000 Acting Tough Points!"

     …

     The System's warning tones kept echoing in Xu Que's mind.

     This explosion killed hundreds of Orc soldiers at the Form Synthesis Stage. Xu Que's Experience Points saved in the Experience Pool had exceeded 10 billion. Of course, for Xu Que, these Experience Points were just like a drop in the bucket.

     Once he managed to cross the Heavenly Tribulation and reach the Form Synthesis Stage, these Experience Points might be only enough for him to upgrade another two or three levels.

     At this time, everyone in the battlefield was totally shocked.

     Then, Xu Que attacked the golden lightning with a punch, but the golden lightning dodged his attack and attacked more Orc soldiers.

     "How could this be?"

     "That's the Ancient Catastrophe! Why could it be intimidated by that guy?"

     "No, that was definitely a fake Ancient Catastrophe!"

     "Nonsense! Didn't you see how many soldiers have been killed by it?"

     Many soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe continued to run away in different directions.

     Xu Que only drew benefit from this blow. When the golden lightning reappeared, the Orc soldiers had scattered completely. It was very difficult to find more than 100 Orc soldiers to hit again.

     "My fellow villagers, don't panic, let me capture this monster!" Xu Que shouted as he dashed toward the golden lightning.

     The rest of the people in the area felt their eyelids twitch in terror.

     What is this guy going to do?

     Capture the monster? Is he going to capture the Ancient Catastrophe? How could this be?

     Many people thought Xu Que had lost his mind. However, the next moment, Xu Que reached out his two hands, which were full of magnificent Taoist Connotation, and captured the golden lightning directly.

     Holy crap!

     All the people were shocked. They couldn't believe what they had seen.

     "He…really captured the Ancient Catastrophe!"

     "How…could that be?"

     "This…"

     Many people didn't even know what to say. However, the soldiers of the Heaven Orc Tribe let out a sigh of relief. Their faces were full of wild joy. Xu Que had captured the golden lightning, which meant they didn't need to run away to dodge its attack.

     "Hah-hah, I've always heard that mankind cultivators are stupid. Today, I really saw it with my own eyes!"

     "If he let that Ancient Catastrophe chase us, we could be intimidated by him. Since he has captured it, what are we waiting for? Let's kill him when he has no time to attack us!"

     "Kill him!" Many Orc soldiers thought this was a good opportunity, so they tried to kill Xu Que when he was fighting with the golden lightning.

     Boom!

     However, a dull sound came from the sky.

     With the golden lightning in his hands, Xu Que swung it down toward the Orc soldiers as if he was swinging a long whip, which was as large as a giant golden dragon.

     "Oh, no, this monster is so powerful. It has almost broken away from my hands! My fellow villagers, run for your lives!" Xu Que shouted as he swung the golden lightning toward the Orc soldiers crazily.

     Boom!

     Boom!

     Boom!

     Instantly, a lot of Orc soldiers were smashed by the golden lightning. The Orc soldiers behind them were terrified and furious. Everyone knew the golden lightning was still in the hands of Xu Que, who was swinging it like a whip. However, these soldiers could do nothing, for they would also die if they came any closer!

     …

     On the other side, the mankind cultivators vented their anger as they saw this scene. Someone yelled at the Orc soldiers, "See? One mankind cultivator could kill all of you!"

     "Scumbags, what did you say just now?"

     "Is mankind still vulnerable?"

     "Is mankind still weak?"

     "Now you are the vulnerable and weak ones who are being slaughtered!"

     "Li Bai, kill them all!"

     "All hail the Exploding Heavens Faction!"

     "The Exploding Heavens Faction is awesome!"

     Many people were cheering and itching to become Xu Que, who could kill the Orc soldiers personally.

     Rumble!

     At last, the golden lightning in Xu Que's hands broke apart in the air. It was exploded into many small golden arcs, which was absorbed by Xu Que and transformed by the God of Hell's Compulsion to strengthen his physique. On the battlefield, all the Orc soldiers were staring at Xu Que speechlessly, but none of them dared to attack him.

     Rumble!

     At this time, the Third Heavenly Tribulation was being brewed in the sky.

     "We have to stop the attack!"

     "This guy is crossing the 79 Heaven Tribulations. Now the Third Tribulation is coming!"

     "If we continue the attack, I'm afraid we can't afford the casualties!"

     "But if we don't kill him, we will have one more formidable mankind enemy in the future!"

     "As a cultivator at the Void Training Stage, his strength is already so horrible! If he reaches the Form Synthesis Stage, I guess he could wipe out our entire tribe alone!"

     The Generals of the Heaven Orc Tribe were in a dilemma. If they continued to attack, the upcoming casualties would be unaffordable! If they retreated, they would have great future trouble!

     "No, I can't wait in this way. This damn Heavenly Tribulation is so inefficient. Several hours have passed, the Third Tribulation has just come!"

     At this time, Xu Que looked at the sky. Then he said impatiently, "Come on, I am a man who could earn billions each minute. I don't want to waste my time on you! Just throw all your remaining Tribulations at me! How about ten?"

     821 Why Do You Chase It?

      You want to fight all the remaining Heavenly Tribulations?

     Hearing that, all the people in the area instantly opened their eyes wide in surprise.

     How could he say that?

     One Heavenly Tribulation was already so horrible. If the rest come down at the same time, the entire battlefield will be ruined!

     The people listening didn't take his words seriously!

     After all, this is the Heavenly Tribulation, which is the Heavens' trial to test the cultivators. How could you ask the Heavens to give all the remaining Tribulations to you? Are you kidding?

     Rumble!

     However, the next moment, a deafening sound came from the thunderclouds in the sky. Following that, four golden slashes of lightning, which were as large as giant dragons, gushed out from the thunderclouds and struck down toward Xu Que abruptly.

     All the people standing around the area were dumbfounded.

     "What…the hell is going on?"

     "The Tribulation really has come according to his request!" All the mankind cultivators were confused and surprised.

     "As expected, the Heavens are wise!" The Orc soldiers shouted in wild joy. "This guy is too arrogant and wicked. The Heavens are going to kill him!"

     "God…bless us!" Many Orc soldiers shed tears of gratitude as if they had seen hope. They didn't believe Xu Que could survive these four golden lightnings.

     Soon, someone's expression changed to terror. "No, this is just the third Tribulation, which is extremely powerful!"

     "Holy crap! This is real! The Heavens are really going to wipe him out!"

     "I guess he has done too many wicked things, which brought this retribution to him!"

     Many people were shocked. No matter whether they were the mankind cultivators or the Orc soldiers, who hated Xu Que so much, everyone was perplexed at this moment.

     They had never heard of anyone's Heavenly Tribulation being so horrible. Nobody could survive this kind of Tribulation!

     "Damn! You are really useless! Why are you so mean? If you are not a coward, just throw everything you have at me!" Xu Que cursed at the sky disdainfully at this time.

     "Four golden lightnings are nothing! Are you looking down upon the Act-Tough Saint? When I helped Hongyan to cross the Heavenly Tribulation, I defeated one million Celestial Soldiers and smashed the golden lightnings in the shape of great swords! Now you just throw these things down! You don't show adequate respect to the Act-Tough Saint!"

     "Damn! This is so annoying! You are wasting my time. I will give you three breaths. If you don't throw everything you have at me, I will blow you up!" Xu Que continued to clamor and ignored the incoming four golden lightnings completely.

     All the people watching were totally shocked as they stared at Xu Que.

     My God!

     What kind of person is this guy?

     Is he insane?

     Four Ancient Catastrophes are flying toward him! Why does he think it is too few for him?

     Damn! What is wrong with this world?

     How could a man complain his Heavenly Tribulation is not powerful enough?

     Many people were confused, and their minds almost went blank!

     Rumble!

     Just at this time, another deafening sound came from the sky again! A magnificent Heaven Pressure gushed down abruptly, choking almost everyone in the area.

     After that, a giant golden lake appeared behind the four golden lightnings, which was a thunder lake full of the Ancient Catastrophe.

     Everyone was dumbfounded again.

     "What…is that?"

     "Now all the remaining Heavenly Tribulations have been thrown down!"

     "A golden thunder lake which has brewed numerous Ancient Catastrophes! My God!"

     "It is comparable to 10, 20, or 100 golden lightnings?" Everyone exclaimed in surprise.

     "Wow!"

     Xu Que got excited suddenly. His eyes lit up and he shouted in wild joy, "Great, well done! Now I can change the color of my Heavenly Thunder Seal to pure gold!"

     Whoosh!

     After saying that, Xu Que jumped up into the sky directly. He didn't want to wait until the lightnings had descended, so he dashed toward them eagerly. If he could absorb all those Ancient Catastrophes into his body, the power of his Heavenly Thunder Seal would be enhanced remarkably. Then, the Heavenly Thunder Seal would be full of the power of the Ancient Catastrophe, which was powerful enough to defeat cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage. He would save his Acting Tough Points by stopping the use of the King of Tough-Acting Fists.

     Rumble!

     It seemed the thunder lake had sensed Xu Que's provocation. It started to roil and move violently, which created magnificent waves. Spindrifts formed by numerous golden lightnings kept surging violently in the thunder lake.

     "This will be extremely profitable!" Xu Que clenched his fists excitedly as he dashed toward the thunder lake like a cannonball.

     Bang!

     He threw out a King of Tough-Acting Fist, which consumed 10,000 Acting Tough Points, without any hesitation! A mountainous golden fist took shape in front of him instantly, which was so horrible. Then, it rushed toward the four golden lightnings with scary momentum. This King of Tough-Acting Fist was even bigger and more powerful than the previous one, which had consumed 5,000 Acting Tough Points.

     Right away, the four golden lightnings tried to dodge the attack. However, they failed to escape the attack range of this King of Tough-Acting Fist. And, at the end, they were hit directly.

     Bang! Bang! Bang!

     …

     Along with four great bangs, the four golden lightnings exploded instantly into thickly dotted small golden arcs like golden raindrops, which were absorbed by Xu Que through his pores.

     Crackle! Crackle!

     Many crackles came from Xu Que's physique, which meant his bones were being strengthened by the Ancient Catastrophe crazily.

     "Wow! This feels so good!" He couldn't help but shout.

     All the rest of the people in the area were having their minds blown by his reactions!

     Is he strengthening his physique with the Ancient Catastrophe?

     Boom!

     At this time, another big bang occurred!

     Xu Que jumped up into the sky and appeared in front of the golden thunder lake. Then he clenched his fists directly.

     "System, give me ten King of Tough-Acting Fists, which each consumes 10,000 Acting-Tough Points. I will use five punches with my left hand and the other five punches with my right hand! I will attack with everything I have!" Xu Que said after activating the System.

     He knew clearly that the 100,000 Acting-Tough Points were absolutely worthwhile. If he could smash this thunder lake and absorb all its Ancient Catastrophes, his physique would be further strengthened and his Heavenly Thunder Seal would also be more powerful!

     Bang!

     At last, being gazed at by so many people in terror, Xu Que threw out his first punch! The entire thunder lake trembled. The giant fist dropped into the lake like an asteroid would hit the Earth, and it created violent explosions. However, Xu Que didn't retreat but continued to move forward. He resisted the thunder attack with the six magic artifacts equipped on his body. Then, he threw out the second punch!

     Bang!

     The third punch!

     Bang!

     The fourth punch, the fifth punch…

     Bang! Bang! Bang!

     In the blink of an eye, he threw out all ten punches!

     The entire thunder lake was covered by violent explosions! Countless golden lightnings flowed out and exploded into small golden arcs. The sky was filled with dazzling golden yellow light at this moment!

     Xu Que's body was full of bleeding cuts, which were created by the explosions. The Spirit Visage,the Negative Cloak, and 20 Banshee's Veils on his body had already been incinerated. But he survived and was laughing! His pores were opened wide. By giving a full play of the God of Hell's Compulsion, he started to absorb the countless small golden arcs around him crazily!

     After that, his wounds started to heal and his bones started to grow. His body was dotted with golden lights. Dazzling golden lights even appeared between his eyebrows.

     At this moment, he was just like God's son!

     At this moment, the entire area was in a dead silence!

     Everyone was looking at this scene dumbfoundedly with blank minds.

     They had never seen such an extraordinary person before!

     He robbed the Heavenly Tribulations and used them for his own purposes!

     How overbearing he is!

     "Come on, take this opportunity to kill him when he is wounded and rob the cracked golden lightnings, which are the precious essence of the Ancient Catastrophe!" a General at the Crossing Calamity Stage of the Heaven Orc Tribe gave his order at this time. However, just at this moment, the thundercloud in the sky was shrinking and retreating.

     "Humph! How dare you run away! Come back!" Xu Que's eyes widened and he waved his hand with a smile. Then, he started to chase the thundercloud with numerous essences of the golden lightnings.

     Holy shit!

     People were shocked and confused again!

     The Heavenly Tribulation has finished, why do you chase it?

     Are you going to chase a Heavenly Tribulation to the Heavens?

     Boom!

     The thundercloud was retreating crazily. Xu Que was chasing it rapidly. Countless Orc soldiers, who were following him, made the mistake of trying to kill him.

     Whoosh!

     Suddenly, Xu Que stopped. Then he smiled as he glanced at the Orc soldiers thickly dotted around on the ground.

     He reached out his hand and pointed at the Orc soldiers as he shouted at the sky, "I won't chase you. As old friends, we will meet regularly, and it is not necessary to undermine our relationship! If you could kill them all with several Ancient Catastrophes, we will be all square in the future!"

     Rumble!

     Instantly, several dazzling golden lightnings descended and smashed at all those dumbfounded Orc soldiers!

     822 If You Are Handsome Enough!

      Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' that your Tough-Acting has Overwhelmed the Heavens. The special reward is 100,000 Acting Tough Points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in crossing the 79 Heavenly Tribulations and reaching the Form Synthesis Stage successfully. The reward is a Big Gift Bag of Crossing Tribulation!"

     Ding! "The Experience Pool is unlocked!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in upgrading successfully. The current stage is Level 1 of the Form Synthesis Stage!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the Host 'Xu Que' in upgrading successfully. The current stage is Level 2 of the Form Synthesis Stage!"

     …

     The warning tones of the System echoed in Xu Que's mind!

     At the same time, a lot of Orc soldiers on the ground had been incinerated by the golden lightnings.

     Xu Que was surprised. He had just said those words casually and didn't expect the Heavens would take his words so seriously. He never expected the Heavens would be so cooperative to throw down several golden lightnings, killing thousands of cultivators of the Heaven Orc Tribe, including several Generals at the Crossing Calamity Stage!

     "Awesome, my Heavens!" Xu Que said.

     Although the death of those Orc cultivators was not attributed to Xu Que and didn't bring him any Experience Points, he realized a new achievement of "the Tough-Acting has Overwhelmed the Heavens"!

     He even earned 100,000 Acting Tough Points! It was not a small sum, but it balanced the Acting Tough Points he had spent in the ten King of Tough-Acting Fists just now. However, soon Xu Que felt guilty.

     As the proverb said, God is three feet over your head. Before, no matter how tough he talked, he didn't worry about the wrath of Heavens. But he was a little confused now. Could the Heavens' cooperation be interpreted as a warning?

     In this case, it seems I can't provoke the Heavens casually in the future!

     Wait! No! Why am I perplexed? How could a mighty member of the Exploding Heavens Faction be intimidated by the wrath of Heavens? This makes no sense!

     Anyway, I am the unprecedented Act-Tough Saint. Since I have chosen the way of acting tough, I shouldn't be afraid of being struck by lightnings! Xu Que came to himself and shouted as he looked at the sky, "Good, nicely done! Now we are all square temporarily. In future, you'd better be smarter. When I cross Heavenly Tribulations, you should avoid being so slow, or others will say you are cheating, understand?"

     However, the sky had become completely calm and was serene and totally cloudless! All the people on the ground had already dropped into a dead silence. The mankind cultivators and the Orc cultivators were totally without words as they stood around after watching all that had taken place.

     Did this guy threaten the Heavens just now?

     Moreover, the Heavens really killed those Orc soldiers by dropping golden lightnings!

     My God! Where did this guy come from?

     He is way too horrible!

     At the thought of this, all the Orc soldiers couldn't help but tremble. Before the appearance of Xu Que, their victory was in sight. After the appearance of Xu Que, they had lost over 10,000 Orc soldiers! The casualties were not very serious for them, but all the Orc soldiers had been totally demoralized! And they had lost the battle!

     "Victory and defeat – it's all because of Li Bai!" An Orc General in the main body of troops exclaimed as he grew pale. Numerous scared eyes were fixed on Xu Que.

     "Withdraw the army!" At last, a magisterial voice came from the home front of the Heaven Orc Tribe. It was the Commander in Chief of the Heaven Orc Tribe at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage who was giving this order.

     Honk!

     The Heaven Orc Tribe blew the trumpet for retreat. Their army had arrived full of high morale but retreated helter-skelter! After a considerable while, a deafening cheer broke out from all the mankind cultivators!

     "We made it!"

     "I didn't expect we could hold them off!"

     "Thanks to Li Bai!"

     "Exactly! Li Bai is the real hero, who is much better than those arrogant and cruel Divine Sons of the Divine Son Division!"

     "Thank you, the Exploding Heavens Faction!"

     "The Exploding Heavens Faction is awesome!"

     "All hail the Exploding Heavens Faction!"

     Countless mankind cultivators were shouting excitedly as they waved their weapons to cheer for Xu Que!

     Xu Que waved his hand with a faint smile, "You flatter me, guys! Fighting a battle is always the easiest task for members of the Exploding Heavens Faction! All members of the Exploding Heavens Faction are remarkable talents. Normally, we amuse ourselves by shooting an enemy who is 400 miles away or tearing an Orc soldier into pieces with our hands!"

     Gasp!

     All the mankind cultivators were shocked by his words.

     Is every member of the Exploding Heavens Faction as powerful as Li Bai?

     Killing someone from 400 miles away?

     Tearing Orc soldiers into pieces with your hands?

     And all of these are just ordinary amusements?

     Holy crap! What is the background of this Exploding Heavens Faction? Why haven't I heard of it before?

     Many people were stunned. If Xu Que had uttered those words before today's battle, nobody would have believed him. After witnessing his extraordinary performance today, though, all the mankind cultivators chose to believe him without hesitation.

     "Guys, this is my first time to toughen myself in this world. I've learned a lot today. It's time for me to go now! From now on, I'll leave the heavy responsibility of defending the territory to you!"

     At this time, Xu Que bowed to the onlookers and was about to leave.

     "Wait!" Suddenly, a cultivator stopped Xu Que and said embarrassedly, "Brother Li Bai, could you please tell me whether your Exploding Heavens Faction…needs newbies?"

     "Sorry, our admission standard is based on appearance! You can only join us if you are handsome enough!" Xu Que turned back and replied with a smile.

     After that, he jumped up into the sky by stepping on lightnings and disappeared on the horizon in front of all those stunned cultivators. A short while later, the onlookers came to themselves and exclaimed embarrassedly.

     "Only the handsome guys could join the Exploding Heavens Faction? Does…this mean he rejected us because we are ugly?"

     "Damn! What the hell is this stupid standard?"

     "Normal sects only choose capable cultivators with good qualifications. Why does the Exploding Heavens Faction only admit new members according to their appearance? This is so annoying!"

     "Alas! I guess this is why the Exploding Heavens Faction is so unfathomable, totally different than those mediocre sects!"

     …

     At the same time, in the front line campsite, which was several thousand miles away from the battlefield, a lot of cultivators were gathering in front of the ranking chart for soldiers and generals. All of them were shocked as they stared at the champion of the ranking chart for generals. A name was displayed in that position – Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction!

     "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"

     "What the hell happened on the battlefield?"

     "How could this guy jump to the top of the chart? Thirty Divine Sons of the Divine Son Division couldn't keep pace with him!"

     "Damn! It's even more than that!"

     "Look at his credits. They are even more than the sum of the 30 Divine Sons!"

     People couldn't stop talking about this issue. Many of them went to the battlefield to check the situation out directly out of curiosity.

     …

     However, General Qin Wei, who was at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage, was standing thoughtfully in the campsite. Like telescopes, his eyes were also fixed on the name in the champion position of the ranking chart for generals.

     "Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens – this young man has really great potential!" He smiled coldly with chilly lights flashing in his eyes.

     823 Opening The Big Gift Bag!

      Swoosh!

     Xu Que rode on a bolt of lightning as he darted through the clouds. He then quickly landed at the foot of a barren mountain near the battlefield. Instead of returning to Jiang Hongyan right away, he decided to take a temporary break and organize his spoils of war. The two wars he had been through today had both been extremely profitable.

     He had obtained a staggering total of 1 million Acting Tough points!

     There had also been a massive leap in his cultivation stage. He had stepped entirely into the Form Synthesis Stage, and the quality of the Tao Connotation of his body had evolved. Should he execute the King of Tough-Acting Fist in the future, the prowess of the fist would be much stronger than before. He could squish a Crossing Calamity Stage cultivator easily and even threaten a Great Vehicle Stage powerhouse!

     Of course, the most important thing was that because this was the first time he had killed an authentic powerhouse at the Crossing Calamity Stage, he had received a Big Mystery Bag as a reward. On top of that, he had also gotten a Big Gift Bag of Heavenly Tribulations for successfully surviving the tribulations. Xu Que was pumped to find out exactly what those bags contained!

     This time, he did not receive the Big Growth Gift Bag that he always obtained after climbing a cultivation stage. The System explained that they would no longer provide a Big Growth Gift Bag after he had cleared the Void Training Stage.

     "It's just a Big Growth Gift Bag. If they don't provide it, so be it! I don't need it anyway!" Xu Que said in disdain. He put it out of his mind. After all, the items in the Big Growth Gift Bag were often of little practical use, a far cry from what he had gotten in other gift bags. He was most excited for the Big Gift Bag of Heavenly Tribulations and the Big Mystery Bag.

     If he could get a few signal boosters from these two gift bags, then he might not need Buttface to contact Earth from now on. He could contact Earth himself anytime, anywhere! However, the prerequisite for that was that Lao Cai would recharge his call credits on his number that was already on a negative balance.

     The last time he had used his cell phone to communicate with Earth, he had sent over an entire movie. He did not dare think about the data fee incurred since he had used roaming services with sky-high charges. It would have cost hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars!

     With that said, though, Xu Que reckoned that the movie must have been an enormous hit on Earth, judging from the 300,000 Acting Tough points the film had brought him. The ticket sales must have been through the roof!

     Therefore, Lao Cai could afford to charge his phone with $1 million worth of credits. It just depended on whether or not he was resolute enough to do it. After all, it's $1 million worth of phone credits! No average human would do that. If they did, the rumour that you could get a free kid along with a phone recharge could be true!

     Let's put that aside first until we open the gift bags. If it's successful, I'll go onto the battlefield once more and shoot a second special-effects film! It'll easily be a greater hit than the last one at the box office!

     The movie he had sent back previously had gotten him 300,000 Acting Tough points in one go! He smoked the Mutant Counterfeit Cigarette while he was at it, and the Acting Tough points' worth doubled instantly, giving him a total of 600,000 Acting Tough points!

     If he could shoot a movie more awesome and grand than the previous film to show in Earth's cinemas, he could collect millions of Acting Tough points in minutes! By then, upgrading the system to version 10.0 would be an easy feat, and the day that he could finally return to Earth would be nearer!

     "Come on! Take a gamble, and the bicycle becomes a motorcycle. Play a game, your ancestors will be proud and honored! Activate my Lucky Aura, System!" Xu Que summoned the System excitedly and turned on his Lucky Aura. At the same time, he entered the item interface and fixed his gaze on the Big Gift Bag of Heavenly Tribulations.

     He opened the Big Gift Bag of Heavenly Tribulations with a swoosh. The gift bag transformed into two beams of light, which dashed into the item backpack spaces.

     Forgiveness Hat: Single-Use Item. Putting this on a selected target would make him forgive you for anything you've done.

     Purchase Voucher: With this voucher, you could purchase an item in the System store for free.

     "This...what the hell are these?"

     Xu Que stared wide-eyed at the two items in the System parcel and was stupefied for a moment. The Purchase Voucher was decent; at least he could use it to buy some of the costliest things in the System store. But what's the meaning of giving him a Forgiveness Hat? For someone meant for doing great things like the great Act-Tough Saint, why would he need anyone to forgive him for doing wrong deeds?

     Eh, wait a minute, why is the hat green?

     "Screw you, System, you're forcing me to make someone a cuckold? Impossible, let me tell you, it's absolutely impossible! I, Xu Que, stand righteous before heaven and earth. I will never do such a thing. You can give up on that!" Xu Que scolded the System, and his hands trembled in agitation. Forgiveness Hat, what a great item!

     "No, wait. I wanted a signal booster! Why are you giving me this rubbish?" Realization suddenly dawned upon Xu Que, who was immediately crestfallen. He looked over at the Big Mystery Bag in the item space.

     "I can only count on you now!" Xu Que thought to himself. With the Lucky Aura still in place, he opened the gift bag filled with hope!

     Swoosh!

     The Big Mystery Bag instantly dissolved into three beams of light and shot into the item spaces.

     Ultra Invincible Emblem: Single-Use Consumable Amulet, withstands all attacks from anyone below the stage of an Immortal Cultivator, lasts for five seconds.

     High-Class Escape Emblem: Able to break free from a certain level of restrictions, and perform instant teleportation. Teleports the user to any location within a radius of 10,000 miles.

     Skill Essence: Upon use, the user will receive 50,000 points of Skill Essence.

     "Ahhh!" Xu Que screamed in agony once he saw the three items. Dammit, no signal booster again!

     Brother, I need a signal booster! Why are you giving me all these?

     Xu Que grimaced sadly, as depressed as he could be. However, the items from the two gift bags were in fact head and shoulders above everything else he had received in the past. These items far surpassed – in both practicality and preciousness – what he had gotten before.

     For instance, the Ultra Invincible Emblem grants the user invincibility for five seconds against any powerhouses under an Immortal Cultivator. Real Men Lasts Five Seconds, this sort of buff cannot be belittled!

     As for the High-Class Escape Emblem, it was also an essential and practical item for Xu Que, who loved to run right after acting tough.

     Even the final 50,000 points of Skill Essence was something he much needed right now.

     All these items were made to boost his survivability and heighten his powers, but it just left out the signal boosters that he wanted the most. That's the reason why he was so exasperated.

     "Looks like I have to lose contact with Earth once again!" Xu Que shook his head and exited the System interface. He prepared to leave and meet up with Jiang Hongyan.

     Swoosh!

     Suddenly, he heard the sound of something cutting through the air. Xu Que turned to face the direction of the stir he had heard. He looked up and saw a black shadow blinking in the distance, and, the next moment, it appeared before him.

     "Yo, it's General Qin!" Xu Que quickly recovered from his daze and smiled. The incomer was Qin Wei, the General at the Great Vehicle Stage. Last night, Xu Que had killed tens of geniuses from the Divine Son Division right before his very eyes. Now that the general had sought him out personally, Xu Que was, of course, unclear about what was going to happen next.

     However, not only was Xue Que not flustered at all, he pulled the corners of his mouth into a smile, and, within his heart,he felt excited almost!

     824 You’re The One Who Knows Nothing About Power!

      Before today, if Xu Que had met a powerhouse at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage with apparent animosity toward him, he might have turned and run immediately after some taunting. However, Xu Que had now merged with his Taoist body, pulling his strength up to a whole new level.

     The most important reason was that he had just obtained an Ultra Invincible Emblem and a Forgiveness Hat from the gift bags. No matter how you looked at it, it was a win-win situation! The Ultra Invincible Emblem grants five seconds of invincibility. How could his opponent win if he fought him while being immune to all his attacks?

     If worse comes to worst, he could put the Forgiveness Hat on his opponent and make him forgive him. What else could his opponent do?

     "Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction! How dare you!" Qin Wei thundered as he glared at Xu Que coldly.

     Qin Wei unleashed a tremendous pressure, attempting to scare Xu Que into submission. However, Xu Que just stood as if he could not feel anything; unaffected and with a devil-may-care attitude, he cleaned his ear with his finger and said, "All right, let's do away with this pathetic display of strength. It doesn't work on me, and I advise that you skip the opening speech too. Just bring it on if you want to fight!"

     With that, Xu Que provocatively gestured "come on" with his finger at Qin Wei.

     Qin Wei's face turned black with rage instantly. As a respected and revered powerhouse at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage, a once-in-a-generation General, how could he swallow such disrespect from a Void Training nobody?

     "Ehn?" Suddenly, Qin Wei's expression flickered as he stared intently at Xu Que. With mild horror, he asked, "When did you achieve the second level of Form Synthesis?"

     When they met last night, Xu Que was just at the peak of the Void Training Stage. Today, he was already at the second level of the Form Synthesis Stage. Even if he had taken celestial steroids, surely he couldn't have progressed this fast?

     "As a member of the Exploding Heavens Faction, I can break through whenever I want, is it that weird? More likely you've never seen the outside world!" Xu Que smiled slightly, "Why don't you become my disciple instead? With your strength and cultivation stage, I could consider accepting you as an Exploding Heavens Faction's follower, in name only!"

     "Insolent!" Qin Wei shook in a fury. Great anger suddenly swept from his body. He was already angry before, planning to settle scores with Xu Que. Who would have thought that this fellow would still be this arrogant in the face of impending death!

     Boom!

     When a powerhouse at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage makes a move, all of the Heaven and Earth will tremble. The void was struck through with his palm, and the atmosphere in that area solidified. As if everything in the world heeded his command and hailed him as their only king, a terrorizing power came straight for Xu Que.

     "Heh, right on time.... Let me see just how powerful someone at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage is!" Xu Que laughed and instantly jumped up, as big patches of lightning formed under his feet. He might have looked unbothered, but deep down, he dared not let down his guard. He hastened the Three Thousand Volts Lightning move to the maximum, only to avoid that lightly executed palm of Qin Wei.

     However, at the next moment, Qin Wei had appeared atop Xu Que's head and sealed off his route!

     "You know nothing about the power of a Great Vehicle Stage!" Qin Wei looked down from the skies above and said icily. Then, he gently lifted both his arms.

     Boom!

     All of the Spiritual Qi in the area was extracted and consolidated on his two palms and transformed into a murky brilliance.

     "No Ash in the Primeval Chaos!" He uttered softly, like the utterings of God. It brought about an overwhelming power, which he slammed down with both his palms. That immense murky brilliance instantly shot toward Xu Que at once.

     "I've never cowered in the face of any spell challenge! Take this, King of Tough-Acting Fist!" Xu Que bellowed and balled his hands into fists and threw out a punch forward.

     Boom!

     The void quivered, and an enormous golden fist suddenly formed in midair and went straight toward the murky brilliance of Qin Wei.

     Crash!

     A massive explosion resounded around the perimeter. The gold glow and the murky brilliance blew up each other and scattered the whole sky. Xu Que was forcefully pushed back by the heatwave and fell straight toward the ground.

     However, Qin Wei still stood coolly in midair. His clothes waved with the wind as he stared down coldly at Xu Que. "As expected of someone at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage!"

     Xu Que's expression began to turn serious. The King of Tough-Acting Fist he had just used was worth 5,000 Acting Tough points, but it seemed to be only on par with Qin Wei's spell.

     Keep in mind that he was already at the Form Synthesis Stage and his Taoist Connotation was far superior. A 5,000-point Act-Tough Fist today was comparable to the hundreds of thousands of Acting Tough points of the past!

     "Is this everything you've got?" Suddenly, Qin Wei, still standing in midair, spoke, his aura cold and unforgiving.

     Xu Que touched the bridge of his nose and let out a little laugh, "I had only used 20 percent of my strength. Now, brace yourself because I'm going to show you 50 percent!"

     As soon as he had finished speaking, Xu Que swung his fist and 20,000 Acting Tough Points were consumed!

     Boom!

     Within his fingers, strays of blinding light rays escaped as they launched forward with the strength of 10,000 armies!

     A berserk golden monster fist condensed in the air instantaneously. It crashed toward Qin Wei with unrivaled heavenly pressure.

     "Ehn?" Qin Wei couldn't help but gasp in surprise. He did not expect Xu Que to have this sort of connotation left in his body.

     "No wonder that you could top the Ranking Chart of Generals! With your strength, you might have a winning chance against a Crossing Calamity Cultivator. However, in front of me, you're still a mere ant!" Qin Wei said, his voice devoid of any temperature. He lifted both of his arms again and brought together the spell of "No Ash in the Primeval Chaos", swinging his palm down at Xu Que.

     Boom!

     A loud crash and the murky brilliance began to glow even brighter. It twisted even the void as it hurled toward the imprint of Xu Que's Tough-Acting Fist!

     Xu Que narrowed his eyes and called out the System interface. He shouted silently to himself, "System, amend the value of this Tough-Acting Fist right now to 40,000! I don't believe that he could take that!"

     Ding! "Value successfully amended. 40,000 Acting Tough Points deducted!"

     Boom!

     With the sound of the system initiation, that golden fist already punched out suddenly began to enlarge in the air and evolved into a humongous mountain-like entity. A terrifying pressure seeped out of it as it heaved toward Qin Wei.

     "What?" Qin Wei lost his cool. He didn't expect that the punch Xu Que had thrown out could suddenly increase in strength. His irises narrowed and retreated in a burst of speed!

     However, the enormous golden fist was big and quick, and it smashed the murky brilliance into smithereens within seconds! Despite this, the glow of Xu Que's fist was still increasing exponentially. With an unflinching killing intent, it plowed down at Qin Wei mercilessly!

     Bam!

     Qin Wei had no time at all to retreat beyond the size of the Tough-Acting Fist and suffered a direct blow. His whole body fell from the sky like a kite severed from its line and smashed heavily into the mountain peak far away. With a massive crash, half of the mountain was destroyed!

     Xu Que chased after him without hesitation. He stepped on a bolt of lightning and raised his fist and, once he had locked onto Qin Wei's presence, crashed down another blow of Tough-Acting Fist worth 40,000 points!

     40,000 points per fist were his current limit, and he could not do more for now. However, so long as he could severely injure Qin Wei, it was more than enough to satisfy him.

     Crash!

     At last, the King of Tough-Acting Fist bore down heavily and demolished the whole of the mountain. He had reduced all of the rocks and stones to ashes, and the mountain was no more; all that was left was a deep pit in its place.

     There Qin Wei was, in the large pit, his clothes tattered and torn, as blood gushed out of the many cuts on his body.

     "Trash, you're the one who knows nothing about my true power!"

     Xu Que looked down from the top as he floated in the air. He had one hand behind his back, and, in the other, he had already clutched into a fist, with strays of golden gleams flashing across it!

     825 There’s Still A Celestial Artifact?

      Boom!

     Xu Que looked at Qin Wei in the pit on the mountain, bleeding from everywhere, but he felt no mercy for him. Another King of Tough-Acting Fist crashed down! It was the same 40,000-points fist pushed to its limit – a golden beam flared and the gleaming golden humongous fist thundered down.

     Ka-boom!

     There was a huge blast that shook the forest and the sky and all that was around it. It was more horrifying than an atomic bomb! It meant that Xu Que's King of Tough-Acting Fist was wholly completed.

     On this day alone, he had exhausted much of his Taoist Connotation just by undergoing the tribulations. Now that he had battled Qin Wei at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage, it had depleted all of his Taoist Connotation. A total of three fists worth 40,000 points each had all landed solidly on Qin Wei!

     Looks like the future battle against the Emperor of the Saint Palace won't be easy either! Xu Que muttered to himself.

     He had initially thought that once he stepped into the Form Synthesis Stage, the maximum power of the Tough-Acting Fist would be enough to annihilate a cultivator at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage. However, it now seemed like he had underestimated the terror of a peak Great Vehicle Stage cultivator!

     Upon suffering three consecutive blows, Qin Wei was only bleeding from injuries, but was still alive and kicking. If you think about it, this cultivation stage was frightening indeed. So this is the power of an entity just a step short of an Immortal cultivator!

     Puu!

     Suddenly, Qin Wei who had lain motionless in the pit, coughed out some blood and immediately jumped up from the ground, as if afraid that Xu Que would punch him again. The speed at which he bounced up was so fast that it could not be captured with the eyes.

     Xu Que's expression turned slightly peculiar as waves of disbelief heaved in his heart. To think that he could run that fast despite being injured to that extent!

     "Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction!" Qin Wei bellowed angrily all of a sudden.

     Xu Que turned to look at him. Qin Wei had already appeared in the air not far away from him, the cuts on his body slowly healing. He glared furiously at Xu Que.

     "Yo, you're not dead yet?" Xu Que sneered.

     In all honesty, Xu Que was not as relaxed as he sounded. He was almost ready to run!

     He had painfully managed to beat Qin Wei into that shape by exhausting all of his Taoist Connotation, but he never thought that it was possible for Qin Wei to recover from his injuries so quickly. His strength greatly exceeded Xu Que's assessment of someone at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage.

     "Very well, Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction, very well indeed! I have truly underestimated your abilities!" Qin Wei smiled out of the blue – it was a furious smile laced with hatred.

     The underestimation was mutual; however, Qin Wei knew that he was the one who had suffered a loss!

     Listening to his words, Xu Que just fished out an Escape Emblem and smirked, "General Qin, go back and practice for a few hundred years more! I have no interest in fighting an opponent like you. Till we meet again!"

     Once Xu Que had finished speaking, he quickly tried to escape by activating the Escape Emblem.

     "Hmph, trying to run?" Qin Wei scoffed icily, and suddenly he clasped both of his hands as if clutching the whole void by its throat! At that moment, the scenery before Xu Que became slightly blurred. The murky brilliance had engulfed everything within a ten-mile radius!

     Pa-ta!

     The Escape Emblem burst into ashes in his hand and lost all its effectiveness. It could no longer help him escape from this restriction.

     "I'll see whether you can escape now!" Qin Wei shouted and clapped his palms together and drew out a sophisticated mark with his hands.

     Xu Que frowned and his face turned slightly black. It was not that he could not leave. After all, he had just obtained a High-Class Escape Emblem. However, that's a precious lifesaving item. To use it here would be such a waste!

     Although Qin Wei was much more powerful than he had anticipated, he had managed to injure him. Therefore,whether it be the High-Class Escape Emblem, the Forgiveness Hat, or the Ultra Invincible Emblem, Xu Que thought that it was not worth it to use them here.

     Swoosh!

     Suddenly, a brilliant blue light grew out from Qin Wei's fingers and shot toward the sky! Then, he opened his mouth wide. A blue pearl emerged from his mouth and floated above his head. Once the blue pearl appeared, all of the Spiritual Qi within that area gathered around him automatically, like fans seeing their idol, and began to gush quite insanely! Seconds later, the blue pearl suddenly enlarged and transformed into a giant water droplet. There were ripples on its surface, which sent chills down onlookers' spines.

     "Crap, what was that?" Xu Que couldn't help but flinch.

     Ding! "Detected a soul-bound Half-Grade Celestial Artifact. The Host should be on alert!" The System notification sounded an alarm.

     Xu Que jumped. A Half-Grade Celestial Artifact?

     Crap, that pearl is a Celestial Artifact? How could he fight against that?

     How could anyone win against a peak Great Vehicle Stage cultivator with a Celestial Artifact?

     "Eh, no, I have a Celestial Artifact too!" Xu Que suddenly realized.

     Back when he was still under the Five Elements Mountain, he had also obtained a Celestial Artifact. Moreover, it was a Low-Grade Celestial Artifact, which was a grade higher than a Half-Grade Artifact!

     However, that Celestial Artifact was used mainly as a support weapon, to increase or decrease someone's life span.For its burst power or practicality in war, it seemed to have no great use. More important, as he was still in the Form Synthesis Stage, he could not fully unleash the prowess of the Ancient Life and Death Wheel. After all, the reason why they are called Celestial Artifacts was that they were weapons used by Immortals.

     Back when he was at the Void Training Stage, Xu Que was only able to control 500 years of life span. Now that he was at the Form Synthesis Stage, he could at most control 1,000 years of life span! To someone at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage, it was just a painless peck, unable to deal any lasting damage.

     However, Qin Wei was different. He was just a step away from becoming an Immortal cultivator, and he had that Half-Grade Celestial Artifact in his hands. The amount of power he could unleash would be unimaginable!

     "Hold on, a fight's a fight; you're a wuss if you use a Celestial Artifact! How could you call yourself a hero if you use a Celestial Artifact to bully your opponent?" Xu Que yelled.

     Sarcasm flashed across Qin Wei's face as he laughed coldly, "All I want right now is to kill you as soon as possible. As for the matter that I used a Celestial Artifact to bully a cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage, no one else would know if you die here today!"

     With that, he raised both of his palms, and an overwhelming gush of True Core Strength overflowed. It engulfed that enlarged blue pearl completely.

     Boom!

     The next moment, the pearl began to rotate at a crazy speed and ignited a powerful suction. Xu Que was caught off guard and was almost pulled away by the pearl.

     However, the good thing was he reacted quickly and injected his True Core Strength to the ground below, pinning himself to the ground.

     Crack!

     At the same time, a huge tree was torn in half by the suction power and flew through the air, going straight for the blue pearl.

     Xu Que's eyes widened as he witnessed the huge tree smashed into sawdust, disappearing without a trace!

     Holy crap, is that Celestial Artifact a blender? Anything it sucks in gets smashed into nothingness! Xu Que exclaimed to himself, horrified.

     "You will die today. I'll make sure of it!" A serious killing intent gleamed coldly in Qin Wei's eyes.

     Vast amounts of True Core Strength poured out of his palms madly and gushed into the blue pearl in an endless stream. The speed at which the pearl was rotating became faster and faster; the higher the rate, the greater the suction!

     However, Xu Que could already hardly remain standing on his feet. The prowess of the Celestial Artifact was not something he could forcibly take on at this stage.

     "Looks like I have no choice but to use that move!" Xu Que narrowed his eyes and smiled coldly at Qin Wei, "General Qin, let me ask you something. Have you seen a true man who lasts five seconds?"

     As soon as he said that, he waved his hands and a shining emblem appeared.

     It was the Ultra Invincible Emblem!

     826 Severely Injuring A Great Vehicle Stage Cultivator

      Schwoop!

     With a flash of brilliance, the Talisman in Xu Que's hand disappeared without a trace. Then a pale golden halo suddenly emerged. It surrounded Xu Que's body and began to glow brightly.

     Thud!

     Xu Que took a step in the air and, with the help of the pull of the blue beads, broke through the sound barrier and lunged toward Qin Wei.

     "You're asking for death!" A satirizing gaze flashed across Qin Wei's irises as he continued to maneuver the beads, triggering forces more and more violent.

     In the blink of an eye, Xu Que had rushed up on the blue beads. At this time, the beads had become as big as half a person. They were blue throughout like huge water drops, sparkling as they rotated at high speed.

     Without any hesitation, Xu Que threw out a straight punch!

     Boom!

     He smashed down a blow that made a deafening crash. The large blue beads suddenly burst into a thick stream of liquid, engulfing Xu Que and enveloping him whole.

     Qin Wei broke into a cold smile. "You're merely at the Form Synthesis Stage. Did you think that I, the general, can't deal with you?..."

     Qin Wei's expression stiffened before he could finish. Then, his eyes went wide in shock and disbelief.

     "This...how could this be possible?" He exclaimed.

     While the blue beads were still spinning, the liquid that was surrounding Xu Que had suddenly fallen off!

     Xu Que appeared in front of him without a scratch. He then, once again, clasped his fist and landed a heavy blow on the blue beads.

     "Stop!" Qin Wei yelled. He wanted to deactivate the blue beads and collect them back! He was the only one who knew that, although the Celestial Artifact was powerful, it would need to recondense once the water curtain fell. Otherwise, once someone lands a hit on it, it would cause damage to the Celestial Artifact. Even he could be injured from the rebounded damage! After all, he had already made this Celestial Artifact into his Soulbound Weapon via refinement.

     "Li Bai, stop!" Qin Wei shouted anxiously.

     However, it was already too late to retrieve the beads, much less to stop Xu Que.

     "Stop, my ass!" Xu Que yelled. At the very instant he had formed a fist, he had adjusted his full body's strength to its peak. The God of Hell's Compulsion was in full swing, and with earth-shaking violence, punched the blue pearl with all his might!

     So what if he was at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage?

     So what if he had a semi-Celestial Artifact?

     Your Act-Tough Saint right here is a Real Man for five seconds. In these seconds, I am invincible!

     Boom!

     Originating from the core of the bead, a thunderous crash instantly rang out throughout the plains!

     "No!" Qin Wei howled in agony as his whole body was thrown by the impact. He quickly paled and coughed out some blood.

     Crack!

     The blue bead before him was severely damaged, with a very obvious crack running through its surface. It fell directly to the ground as it lost its luster. It was already half-destroyed.

     Swosh!

     At the same time, Xu Que's invincible aura began to fade away slowly. His five seconds of invincibility were over. However, Xu Que had no fear of Qin Wei at the moment.

     This powerful being at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage never expected such a thing to happen. Initially, he wanted to simplify the process and kill Xu Que with a Celestial Artifact. Little did he know that this fellow would escape uninjured, and that, after he blocked the Celestial Artifact, he would take advantage of the Celestial Artifact's frailty and break the bead directly. Mind you, that was his Soulbound Weapon! Once damaged, it would hurt his roots, causing significant trauma.

     Therefore, as Xu Que faced a seriously injured opponent at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage, he did not need to worry about what the other side would do to him even if he could not kill Qin Wei. Everyone was now on equal footing.

     "Good fight, General Qin! You managed to survive even after I unleashed 60 percent of my prowess!" Xu Que picked up the cracked blue bead and looked at Qin Wei with a knowing smile.

     Qin Wei's face was ghastly pale and blood kept gushing from the corners of his mouth. He was silently shocked and, upon hearing Xu Que's words, he was speechless. He felt so gloomy that he almost vomited more blood.

     Do you call that a Form Synthesis Stage? He was able to defeat me like this with only 60 percent of his strength. If he goes all out, won't I be bombarded to smithereens?

     Crap, where had my thousands of years worth of cultivation gone? To a dog?

     "Oh, General Qin, your ball's cracked!" Xu Que pretended to be surprised as he pointed to the cracks on the blue bead.

     Qin Wei's face quickly turned black, and, with mind control, he summoned the bead back.

     Whiz!

     The blue bead immediately disappeared from Xu Que's hand in an instant and was returned to Qin Wei's body. After all, it was his Soulbound Weapon, which can be called out or called back anytime and anywhere!

     Xu Que slightly raised his eyebrows and silently cursed that he had been too slow. Otherwise, he would have made the System steal the bead. However, it was only a semi-Celestial Artifact. On top of that, it was already damaged. Thus, Xu Que did not feel any real regret as it was now unattractive.

     "Li Bai, you're not too bad." Qin Wei heaved a deep sigh and stared at Xu Que intently.

     Xu Que shrugged his shoulders and boasted, "Surely I deserve better than a 'too bad.' I'm a genius!"

     "..." Qin Wei bit his gums, feeling a strong urge to rush up and fight Xu Que once more! Nevertheless, he managed to hold himself back. That was because the kind of Talisman Xu Que had just pulled out was simply astounding. It had protected someone from a Celestial Artifact attack. That was just terrifying! Moreover, he could not figure out how many pieces of Talisman Xu Que had on his body. He was afraid that he would be killed if he rushed up again. So after a few moments of contemplation, he thought of an idea. He burst out laughing.

     "Ha, ha, ha, nice! It proves that I did not misjudge. You have potential!" Qin Wei's expression changed so quickly that Xu Que did not see it coming. A second ago, this old man saw him as his nemesis; however, now he was now suddenly laughing brightly and even showing appreciation.

     What's up with this situation?

     Xu Que was taken aback and looked incredulously at Qin Wei.

     Qin Wei smiled with a smile that screamed kindness and said, "Li Bai, I made a move just now to test your strength, but you exceeded my expectations! The young are remarkable – to think that you had such a powerful strength and means!"

     Wow, you're pulling this move on me when you're losing?

     Bro, don't you think that that was too unconvincing?

     Xu Que glanced scornfully at Qin Wei. He then suddenly laughed and waved, "You're right, you're right. So General Qin was testing me! You almost scared me to death – I thought that you were trying to kill me!"

     "How could that be? I have always loved talented people. Seeing how extraordinary you are, I couldn't help myself but I needed to test your waters. Li Bai, the reason I am here is actually to invite you personally to join the Divine Son Division. I wonder what you would say to that?" Qin Wei quickly piled on his smiles.

     Xu Que smirked and exclaimed, "Okay! The reason why I tried to display my strength this much was to attract the attention of General Qin. I had always wanted to join the Divine Son Division, so this is my dream come true!"

     "Oh? That's a good thing. Why don't you take this Token of Passing first? With this Token, you could travel all around the Tong Tian Nation of our Xuanzhen Continent. Everybody would know that you are a man of the Divine Son Division and will give you respect!" Qin Wei said as he took out a Token of the Divine Son Division and handed it to Xu Que.

     Xu Que was not shy either. He accepted it directly. To be honest, he still wanted to kill this powerhouse at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage. However, this is a big Boss. It would take more than 100,000 Acting Tough Points and an Ultra Invincible Emblem to seriously injure him.

     If he had to let it go like this, it would be a waste of a lot of Experience Points and even a Big Mystery Bag. However, even if Xu Que had wanted to pursue this idea, he could not do so. He would have gone for the kill If there was another Ultra Invincible Emblem. However, he had depleted his Taoist Connotation. Hence, the King of Tough-Acting Fist couldn't be performed, and he was not confident of other tricks that could kill Qin Wei.

     As the saying goes, a centipede dies but never falls! Xu Que knew this very well.

     Qin Wei was still, after all, a cultivator at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage. If it weren't for the showing of his Celestial Artifact and Xu Que's five seconds of invincibility, he would have had no choice but to run away.

     Therefore, even if Qin Wei was seriously injured, he did not believe that such a strong man would have no other means to protect his life and let himself be killed. He would have revealed his connotation, which would have been a significant loss.

     In reality, Xu Que was right. Judging by strength alone, Qin Wei was still stronger than Xu Que. However, he was afraid that Xu Que could still have some of those invincible Talismans. Therefore, he stopped himself from acting recklessly and changed his strategy to recruit Xu Que instead. In his opinion, as long as the wounds were healed, there were still plenty of chances to kill Xu Que, and he was in no hurry.

     Therefore, after Xu Que received the Token, they both smiled warmly. They shook hands and made peace as if they felt regret that they had not known each other sooner. However, Qin Wei did not notice Xu Que's actions. Xu Que had summoned the System interface as he laughed. "System, start the Ancient Life and Death Wheel quickly! Absorb his Life-span and get as much as you can!"

     827 You Animal!

      Swoosh!

     Suddenly, the palms of Xu Que and Qin Wei were stuck together like glue. Then, an enormous wave of vital force suddenly gushed out from Qin Wei's palm.

     "Crap!" Xu Que immediately screamed.

     Then he looked at Qin Wei and scolded angrily, "General Qin, what are you doing? I'm warning you, don't you dare try anything funny!"

     Qin Wei was bewildered. He felt the vital force draining from his body, then saw Xu Que's expression. He could not process what was happening. I had not yelled anything, so why are you screaming first? Shouldn't I be the one demanding to know what you were doing to me?

     "General Qin, I can't believe that you were this despicable! Didn't we call a truce? I can't believe that you used a sneak attack to steal my lifespan! I'm gonna kill you!" Xu Que bellowed in anger and clenched his fists.

     Qin Wei finally caught on to the situation. He quickly called out, "Stop! My vital force is also draining away. What are you trying to do?"

     "What am I trying to do? I should be the one asking that! I thought that all we were doing was a simple handshake, but why are you clutching my hand so tightly? You're even sucking my lifespan! Let go of me right now!" Xu Que barked furiously.

     "What? Who is it if it's not your doing?" Xu Que was shocked. Xu Que's acting was convincing enough to deceive him. He scanned their surroundings and concluded right away that someone had stabbed them in the back.

     Slap!

     Suddenly, Xu Que gave Qin Wei a hard slap across his face. Qin Wei could not believe it and stared blankly at Xu Que.

     Xu Que glared back at him, "You animal! Beast! Old pervert! Release my hand now! Right now!"

     As soon as he finished scolding, he raised his free hand and gave Qin Wei another tight slap!

     "Atrocious"

     The slaps seemed to have slapped the dust out of Qin Wei's mind. He realized what was going on and growled.

     "Crap!" Anger filled Xu Que's face as he balled his hand into a fist, preparing to attack Qin Wei.

     Qin Wei stopped him immediately, "Stop! Why are you so flustered? I would never do something as underhanded as that! We might have fallen prey to a plot. There's an ambush!"

     "An ambush? How's that possible?" Xu Que's eyes opened wide and looked all around.

     Qin Wei's face blackened as he evaluated his surroundings. He spoke darkly, "I am Qin Wei, the First General of the Tong Tian Nation! Who is the fellow cultivator scheming nearby with such underhanded means? If you don't cease your actions right now, don't beg for mercy when I find you out!"

     Ding! "As per the Host's current cultivation stage power, the Ancient Life and Death Wheel had reached the maximum Vital Force Extraction Limit! You have received a total of 1,200 years of lifespan." Suddenly, the System notification rang within Xu Que's mind.

     At the same time, both Xu Que's and Qin Wei's palms suddenly lost all attraction and loosened.

     Puu! Xu Que coughed out blood, his face filled with agony. He could not help it. To suck 1,200 years worth of lifespan vital force in an instant was overly nourishing. His body was almost at its limit.

     Qin Wei also pressed his chest with a cryptic expression as he speedily healed his injury. He was already hurt before losing over 1,000 years of lifespan for no good reason. It had aggravated his injury and was driving him insane. However, seeing that Xu Que was also injured had somewhat soothed his nerves. He even believed that the mysterious incident just now was not due to Xu Que.

     "Li Bai, my Little Friend. How are you feeling? Are you all right?" A moment later, Qin Wei suppressed his pain and came before Xu Que, pretending to be concerned. The very instant that Xu Que says that he was gravely injured, he would kill him. The best opportunity to kill your enemy was when they're weak!

     "Thank you for your concern, General Qin. I am all right; I just lost 1,000 years of lifespan!" Xu Que shook his hand and answered calmly.

     Qin Wei raised his eyebrows and observed Xu Que closely. Upon confirming that he was indeed okay, he curbed his desire to attack and nodded his head, "That's good. I have also lost a little over 1,000 years of lifespan! Once I find the one who secretly attacked us, I'll make sure that he dies a horrible death!"

     1,000 years of lifespan was not little, but also not much to a cultivator at the Great Vehicle Stage. Although it had no real effect on his ability, he still felt disgusting, like he had swallowed a fly. After all, none of the tens of thousands of cultivators in this world would say no to a longer life!

     "Hm, how dare he attack both of us! He must be tired of living! I will get my revenge for sure! Rest assured, General Qin. I will go back and gather the followers of the Exploding Heavens Faction and find that sneak attacker! Excuse me!" Xu Que said indignantly. Then he stepped onto a bolt of lightning and left immediately, shooting across the sky.

     Qin Wei had not felt anything amiss with Xu Que's actions. To a cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage, 1,000 years of lifespan was equivalent to half of their whole lifespan, a painful loss. It was normal for him to seek revenge eagerly. He raised his head and watched as Xu Que's figure disappeared on the horizon. His face gradually clouded with gloom.

     "Hm, once I recover from my injuries, I'll make sure to plant the Soul Insect Gu within you. I'll then throw you onto the Road of Heavenly Ascension, where you'll toil your life away for me!"

     ... ...

     Several moments later, Xu Que finally returned to the mountain where he had practiced secluded meditation. Once he touched down, he fell onto the ground and blood gushed out of his mouth, as though there was not a drop of strength remaining in his body. He had exhausted all of his Taoist Connotation in his battle with Qin Wei.

     Besides, by making the System activate the 'Ancient Life and Death Wheel' to steal Qin Wei's 1,200 years of lifespan forcefully had its cost. It cleaned out all of his True Core Strength, and he had suffered some internal injuries as the huge wave of vital force gushed through his body. To return to the mountain, he had secretly activated the System's automatic recovery ability to regain a small portion of True Core Strength, so that he could pretend to be uninjured in front of Qin Wei.

     "Xu Que!" Jiang Hongyan had been waiting for him to return. She rushed out of the cave and was shaken to see Xu Que lying injured. In her eyes, Xu Que was powerful enough to fight a cultivator at the Crossing Calamity Stage with no problems. To hurt Xu Que, you would need at least 100 Crossing Calamity Stage cultivators banded together or the Heavenly Tribulations had become more powerful.

     "I'm okay, he, he." Xu Que sat up and waved.

     The System's automatic recovery ability was domineering. It had already recovered quite a bit of internal injuries and True Core Strength. Seeing that he seemed to be truly fine, Jiang Hongyan heaved a small sigh of relief, "Did a strong enemy appear on the battlefield?"

     "That's not it. I just bumped into Qin Wei on my way back!" Xu Que smiled.

     Jiang Hongyan's expression changed into a fit of rare anger, "He tried to kill you?"

     "Ha, ha, that's right! He tried to kill me, but in the end...ha, ha, ha!" Xu Que laughed out loud. He then filled her in with what had happened. As they approached the end of his recounting, Jiang Hongyan gasped in surprise, "You mean to say that, not only did you injure him severely, you also destroyed his celestial artifact, and ,on top to that, stole 1,000 years of his lifespan?"

     "Yeah! It's a pity, though, that I had exhausted too much of my Taoist Connotation during my Heavenly Tribulations today. Otherwise, I would have many chances to kill him!" Xu Que nodded, apparently regretful.

     Jiang Hongyan felt dazed at what she had heard. No matter how she contemplated, she wouldn't have thought that Xu Que's strength had already become this mighty. He was just at the second level of the Form Synthesis Stage, but he was able to fight on a par with someone at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage. Furthermore, his opponent had a Half-Grade Celestial Artifact.

     In the end, Jiang Hongyan glowed as she said softly, "If you want his life, I will bring you his head!"

     "Save the trouble. If we want to kill Qin Wei, we won't even need to dirty our own hands!" Xu Que beamed his signature mischievous smile.

     Jiang Hongyan paused, then asked jokingly, "What wicked idea do you have now?"

     828 To Kill With A Borrowed Knife

      On the same day, a piece of news suddenly spread like wildfire in the front-line camps. A mysterious man who claimed to be Qin Wei's enemy was said to have witnessed the battle between Qin Wei and Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction. He swore that Qin Wei's soulbound weapon got destroyed and that he was seriously injured. The mysterious man even stated that he stole the lifespan of more than 1,000 years from both of them while they were distracted.

     When the news first came out, nobody believed it at all. How could Qin Wei, a great cultivator at the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage and the protector of the Tong Tian Nation, be defeated by a young man at the Form Synthesis Stage, and even have his soulbound weapon destroyed? However, Xu Que assumed the identity of Li Bai and appeared the very next day. He pretended to pass by the camp and was immediately pulled aside by a group of cultivators, asking whether or not the rumors were true.

     Xu Que chided righteously, "I, Li Bai, stand here as I strongly condemn the mysterious man who attacked us! Why did you steal my lifespan as well when your hatred is with General Qin? You must be held accountable for this!"

     Then he gathered a group of people like he was holding a press conference and said, "The battle between General Qin and me was not as exaggerated as you thought. I assure you that General Qin's Celestial Artifact was never destroyed, for I had just made a small crack. Therefore, although General Qin suffered serious injuries because of that, there was no major impediment. He should recover fully after a few decades of secluded meditation!"

     Everyone who heard this stood stunned in disbelief.

     Xu Que added, "I hope that the enemies of General Qin can have a bit of goodness in their hearts and not take advantage of General Qin's injury to seek revenge. That would be just wrong! Well, I have to leave the front line now. Take care of yourselves!" After Xu Que had finished his speech, he hurriedly excused himself and left behind a group of stone-faced cultivators.

     At first, when the news came out, they did not believe even half a word. However, Xu Que had now come out personally to clarify the situation. Although what he said was as good as not explaining anything, he had proved the validity of the news.

     All of a sudden, people were shocked and rushed to tell each other about this new development. In a short time, all kinds of news had spread throughout the camp, and even to many nearby remote ancient cities, which quickly went viral.

     "Big news!"

     "Form Synthesis Stage Cultivator Li Bai, from the Exploding Heavens Faction, has defeated the general with a Celestial Artifact!"

     "Shocking!"

     "Li Bai from the Exploding Heavens Faction has emerged! General Qin Wei suffered a crushing defeat and a heavy blow, with even his soulbound weapon cracked!"

     "The latest news!"

     "Li Bai of the Exploding Heavens Faction appealed to the enemies of General Qin to speak with civility, to build a new trend, and to carry forward national virtues, and not to seek revenge while General Qin was injured!"

     ...

     As the news went wild, more and more people came to know about General Qin's defeat. When the news reached the Divine Son Division, the remaining dozen Divine Sons were dumbstruck. Qin Wei was so angry that he smashed several tables and chairs.

     "Damn, is that Li Bai an idiot? The way he phrased it is tantamount to reminding my enemies to take revenge!"

     ...

     The news had even reached the Heaven Orc Tribe. Countless Heaven Orc giants swore.

     "Talk about civility and creating a new trend?"

     "Promoting national virtues?"

     "Crap! Talk, my ass! Promote your head!"

     "That fella has done all sorts of dirty deeds and still has the face to appeal to others?"

     ...

     Ultimately, the impact of the news got bigger and bigger. After all, the issue itself was controversial. On the one hand, you have the renowned General who protected the Nation, an existence who had attained the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage.

     On the other hand, you have an obscure young man at the Form Synthesis Stage, but he had now become famous with this battle.

     The contrast of strength between the two sides had shaken countless people, and they could not stop debating about it.

     ...

     Meanwhile, Xu Que the litigant had left the front line with Jiang Hongyan and made a move for the central area of Tong Tian Nation. Along the way, Jiang Hongyan had also come across the news about the "Battle between Qin Wei and Li Bai" and had mixed feelings.

     "Boy, your move to kill him with a borrowed knife is so very clever!" She chuckled.

     Xu Que boasted, "Little Missy, this is the best way to kill people! You still have lots to learn!"

     "But you've got to be careful now that you've exposed your strength. I'm afraid you've caught the attention of that man!" Jiang Hongyan reminded Xo Que.

     Xu Que smiled and said, "That's what I'm aiming for, to attract his attention. Otherwise... how can we lead him away?"

     "No! You might have injured Qin Wei severely, but that person's strength was head and shoulders above Qin Wei!" Jiang Hongyan suddenly looked grim. She was serious.

     Xu Que also fell silent. If not for the fact that he had an Ultra Invincible Emblem on him, he couldn't have hurt Qin Wei like that. At most, he would have landed a few King of Tough-Acting Fists, and then turned around and ran! Of course, if he hadn't spent too much Taoist Connotation during his Heavenly Tribulations that day, he could have killed Qin Wei with the help of the Ultra Invincible Emblem.

     However, there were not many "ifs"in this world. Kismet and fate decided everything. However, isn't Kismet also a kind of strength? Thinking of this, Xu Que smiled indifferently and looked at Jiang Hongyan. He asked, "How big is the gap in strength between the Emperor and Qin Wei?"

     Jiang Hong Yan pondered, and said softly, "I speak from my memories before my reincarnation. The Emperor could kill Qin Wei within 50 rounds. He had two Celestial Artifacts, one for offense and one for defense. Within the Xuanzhen Continent, there are only a handful of people who could compete with them."

     "Two Celestial Artifacts?" Xu Que's eyes widened.

     How could they fight that?

     Qin Wei could crush him with a broken Celestial Artifact.

     Not only was the Emperor more powerful than Qin Wei, but he also possessed two Celestial Artifacts, and he took care of both his offense and defense, what the hell!

     "That's right. With those two Celestial Artifacts, our chance to succeed...is slim." Jiang Hongyan nodded with a heavy heart.

     Xu Que was somewhat at a loss for words, "Why are we still heading for the Imperial Palace then? That person could attain our coordinates whenever he liked. Is this not walking to our doom?"

     "When have I ever told you that we were going to the Imperial Palace, little one?" Jiang Hongyan beamed suddenly, and her beautiful eyes were full of wit.

     Xu Que got lost in her eyes. His impression of Jiang Hongyan's character had always been that it was calm and collected at every moment; she was mature and dignified, her temperament graceful and luxurious. However, she had now shown her rare cute side.

     It almost made Xu Que shout that his old romantic heart was about to burst! No way, he must get this perfect woman quickly!

     Almost immediately, Xu Que reached out and pulled Jiang Hongyan into his arms. Jiang Hongyan blanked out for a moment. Before she could speak, Xu Que gazed at her with the eyes of a domineering CEO and joked, "Little Missy, you mean to say…where are we going now? Is it an inn?"

     Jiang Hongyan took a moment to digest Xu Que's words. Once she realized what he was implying, she laughed and shook her head lightly, "No! We are going to the Myriad Buddhas Sect!"

     "Myriad...myriad what? Buddhas Sect?"

     Xu Que was stunned. Don't be like that! Your Act-Tough Saint is wooing you this much, and you mention a Buddhist Sect at this juncture? Did you want me to be a monk? Don't! I am not that kind of person. Those little nuns in the Buddhist Sect or something…. Umm, that doesn't sound too bad either!

     829 This is Real Tieguanyin!

      On their journey, thanks to Jiang Hongyan's explanation, Xu Que finally figured out her purpose in going to the Myriad Buddhas Sect.

     There were a lot of sects in the Xuanzhen Continent. The Tong Tian Nation, where mankind coexisted with demonic beasts, was the only country in this vast continent. Besides this nation, the Heaven Orc Tribe was another prodigious and solitary community. Then, there were also many big and small independent sects.

     All these sects had their own territories, which didn't belong to the Tong Tian Nation. The leaders of these sects were extremely powerful, at least as powerful as Qin Wei!

     The Myriad Buddhas Sect was the most powerful one among these independent sects. Members of this sect were not real Buddhists. They cultivated the Buddhist magic arts and advocated Buddhist teachings. If they were described with the languages of Earth, they would be called fake Buddhism fans!

     Moreover, the leader of the Myriad Buddhas Sect was one of several powerhouses who could rival the Emperor of the Tong Tian Nation. Many people were attracted to this sect by his reputation and came there to seek asylum. However, this time, Jiang Hongyan didn't want to seek asylum in the Myriad Buddhas Sect. She wanted to get a Medication Treasure.

     The Medication Treasure belonged to the Magic Artifacts. As an Immortal Elixir, it had evolved into a living Magic Artifact at last! Jiang Hongyan wanted to borrow the Celestial Concealment Herb, which was a Medication Treasure, from the Leader of the Myriad Buddhas Sect.

     After activating this treasure, the user's aura could be concealed. Even a Celestial's soul could be concealed with this treasure, even if the Celestial was ten miles away. Jiang Hongyan knew clearly that her aura was being tracked by the Emperor, who would thus know whatever they did. It was almost hopeless to seize the God-realization Tree! Therefore, she planned to evade the Emperor's detection with the Celestial Concealment Herb. Then, they could find an opportunity to sneak into the Imperial Palace and seize the God-realization Tree!

     Xu Que agree with this plan entirely. But they still had a problem to solve.

     "Little girl, as you said, Lord Zeng, the Leader of the Myriad Buddhas Sect, could rival the Emperor. How will he lend us the Celestial Concealment Herb easily?" Xu Que asked, for this was the problem which puzzled him.

     Jiang Hongyan said with a faint smile, "Lord Zeng is an eccentric person. If someone comes to ask help from him, he will pose a difficult question to the visitor. If this question can be solved, he will satisfy the needs of the visitor. The herb is precious, but I am sure Lord Zeng will give it to us if we solve his question!"

     "Hah, this will be an easy task. Because of your lucky nature, we have a good chance of winning!" Xu Que said delightedly.

     It was not only because of Jiang Hongyan's lucky nature. He could also activate his Lucky Aura when Lord Zeng posed his question. Maybe Lord Zeng could give them an easy question!

     …

     They continued to hurry to the west border of the Tong Tian Nation, almost without stopping because their current movements could definitely be sensed by the Emperor. Therefore, they had to arrive at the Myriad Buddhas Sect before the Emperor sent someone to stop them.

     Half a month later, Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan arrived at the territory of the Myriad Buddhas Sect successfully. This place was in a desert, which was quite like the West Desert of the four continents, although the West Desert was desolate and this place was very prosperous. The entire area was like an ancient nation in the desert, which was full of high towers, temples, and markets, with people hurrying to and fro.

     Of course, a place like this was always full of people of all walks of life, and was as chaotic as the border of the Tong Tian Nation. Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan were stopped by a team of people who were dressed like warrior monks when they stepped into the desert. Although these people wore clothes of warrior monks, they had hair on their head, which was unusual. However, according to the "Myriad Buddhas Sect" written on their chests, it was quite easy to figure out that this was a patrol of the Myriad Buddhas Sect, responsible for checking the cultivators entering their territory.

     "Only devout Buddhists can enter the territory of the Myriad Buddhas Sect!" A warrior monk at the Crossing Calamity Stage said in a low voice.

     Xu Que was stunned. He was about to say "Amitabha", subconsciously putting his palms together. Then he noticed someone beside him took out a pendant of a golden Buddha statue. The patrol let this guy go immediately.

     "I see!" Xu Que smiled, waving his hand to purchase a small box from the System Store. Then, he tied a rope to the box and hung it on his neck.

     The warrior monk frowned and said seriously, "Only devout Buddhists can enter the territory of the Myriad Buddhas Sect!"

     "I am a devout Buddhist! See, this is Tieguanyin!" Xu Que picked up the box on his chest and showed it to the warrior monks by opening the box cover. "See, this is the real Tieguanyin, which was produced in 1982!"

     The warrior monks wanted to beat him up.

     Others wear pendants of Buddha or Bodhisattva. Why do you hang a box of tea on your neck? Do you think you can muddle through by naming your tea Tieguanyin (The Iron Buddha)?

     Do you think we are blind?

     "That's enough, little brat! Take this and follow me!" Jiang Hongyan said gently, as she gave him a set of Buddha beads.

     "This is the authentic Tieguanyin!" Xu Que explained embarrassedly.

     However, he didn't want to make trouble in the Myriad Buddhas Sect, so he put on the Buddha beads immediately.

     The warrior monks changed their expressions and let Xu Que go as they smiled at him nicely. From this, one could imagine their degree of the Buddhism in the Myriad Buddhas Sect.

     When they entered, they found they were in a big market. Peddlers were selling all kinds of consecrated magic artifacts like the Buddha statue and Buddha beads, which they claimed were enchanted by Buddha power. When they moved deeper into the market, they found countless Buddha statues surrounded by burning joss sticks and candles, which were to be worshipped.

     Xu Que got a feeling that he was in a big sacrificial ceremony.

     However, Jiang Hongyan was not interested in these things. She led Xu Que to the highest tower that was located at the center of the market. It was a magnificent cloud-kissing Buddhist pagoda, which was built in front of a gigantic golden Buddha statue.

     There were altogether 81 floors in this pagoda. Buddha statues were also built on the four tower eaves on each floor. Apparently, it was the place where the important people lived. However, a stream of people were going in and out of the pagoda all this time.

     Jiang Hongyan stopped and asked confusedly, "Is this where Lord Zeng lives. Normally, nobody is allowed to enter this place. Why is it so bustling today?"

     "Don't worry. Let me ask someone!" Xu Que stopped a passer-by with a smile.

     "Buddy, could you…"

     Before he finished his words, the passer-by said hurriedly, "Amitabha, the Buddha said, 'It can't be said, it can't be said!'" Then, the passer-by left directly.

     Xu Que looked confused. "What the hell? Is it really necessary to make it so mysterious? I didn't even finish my question!"

     Seeing Xu Que's reaction, Jiang Hongyan couldn't help but smile. Then, she explained, "There is a rule here. We can't talk about this secular world in front of the Buddha!"

     "My God! What kind of rule is this? It is too superstitious! Forget it, let me do it directly!"

     Xu Que shook his head and stepped forward seriously.

     Jiang Hongyan was stunned by his action.

     Before she had time to react, Xu Que raised his head and shouted at the pagoda abruptly, "Lord Zeng, the February Red of the Exploding Heavens Faction comes here to ask for medication from you!"

     830 It Is Not A Problem Of Colors!

      Swish!

     All the passers-by around him stopped immediately. They fixed their eyes on Xu Que in surprise. Then they shook their heads sarcastically.

     February Red of the Exploding Heavens Faction? Ask for medication?

     Buddy, nobody could ask for medication in this way! Lord Zeng will ignore a cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage who clamors under the pagoda directly.

     "Who is making noise here?" a warrior monk walked out of the pagoda at this time. This warrior monk was shaven and looked more like a real monk.

     Xu Que bowed at the warrior monk and said politely, "I am February Red of the Exploding Heavens Faction. I am here to ask for medication from Lord Zeng!"

     "Just go, Lord Zeng won't see you!" The warrior monk frowned and shook his head as he was about to turn around and leave.

     "Why? Is the month or the color wrong? I can change them!" Xu Que asked immediately.

     Before the warrior monk had time to answer him, Xu Que raised his head and shouted again, "Lord Zeng, February Purple of the Exploding Heavens Faction comes here to ask for medication from you! Lord Zeng, August Red of the Exploding Heavens Faction comes here to ask for medication from you! Lord Zeng, June Green of the Exploding Heavens Faction.…"

     "Shut up!" the warrior monk stopped Xu Que and said embarrassedly, "It is not the problem of month or color! You should stop making noise here! Lord Zeng is very upset. He is focusing on the preparation of the Divine Pill Convention and doesn't have time to see you!"

     "The Divine Pill Convention? What does that mean?" Xu Que asked in surprise.

     Even Jiang Hongyan looked at the warrior monk curiously.

     The bare-headed warrior monk said in a low voice, "Amitabha, we can't talk about secular things in front of the Buddha. Please come into the pagoda and I'll tell you!"

     After saying that, he reached out his arm to invite Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan to enter the pagoda. Inside the pagoda, there were also a lot of people who were burning incense and worshipping Buddha. The bare-headed warrior monk led Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan to the center of the pagoda's first floor. Then, he stopped and said in a low voice to them, "Since you know this place, you should know Lord Zeng's rules! However, you two really came here at an awkward moment today. Lord Zeng is focusing on the Divine Pill Convention, which will be held two days from now . During this period, he will only see Alchemists!"

     "Oh? What a coincidence! Maybe you don't believe it, but I am also an Alchemist!"

     Xu Que was quite happy to hear that. As an omnipotent cultivator, he knew how to play piano, sing, and refine and set up spells, although he hadn't mastered those skills!

     "You are also an Alchemist?" The bare-headed warrior monk looked at Xu Que in surprise and asked, "Could you tell me which level you have reached as an Alchemist, please? And could you prepare pills to cure diseases of ordinary people?"

     "I am a Four-Star Alchemist. I can cure incurable diseases for people from three years to 80 years old! But I can't cure gynecological diseases!" Xu Que started to brag without hesitation.

     The bare-headed warrior monk frowned and said, shaking his head slightly, "I'm afraid a Four-Star Alchemist is not enough!"

     Holy shit! Are you looking down upon the Act-Tough Saint?

     Now I have more than one million Acting Tough Points. I can become a Nine-Star Alchemist by reading those skill books purchased from the System easily!

     Xu Qu was about to say something.

     At this time, Jiang Hongyan said gently, "Could you tell us why Lord Zeng only see Alchemists? And why does he hold this Divine Pill Convention, please?"

     "Frankly speaking, Lord Zeng's daughter is suffering from a weird disease, but Lord Zeng and some Nine-Star Alchemists could do nothing to help her. Therefore, Lord Zeng organized this convention to ask for medication from everyone in this world. You should have noticed a lot of people are hurrying in and out of this place. All of them came here bringing their medications!" The bare-headed warrior monk sighed, as if he also felt this issue was quite difficult to handle.

     Gasp!

     Xu Que gasped immediately! How could Lord Zeng have a daughter? This makes no sense! How could a monk have a daughter?

     "Little Princess is sick? How could this be?" Jiang Hongyan asked curiously at this time.

     The bare-headed warrior monk shook his head, "This is where the problem lies. You should know the physique of the Little Princess is quite unique. She can't cultivate. Therefore, Lord Zeng feeds her with all kinds of rare treasures to lengthen her life. However, she hasn't wanted to eat anything recently, no matter the table delicacies from land and sea, elixirs, precious pills, or ordinary foods. She will throw up anything she eats."

     After saying that, the bare-headed warrior monk sighed, "Alas, after several days, the Little Princess has become haggard, which makes our hearts ache for her!"

     "How could she suffer from such a weird disease?" Jiang Hongyan asked in surprise.

     Xu Que lit up his eyes and said, "This is not a weird disease. It is just anorexia. What should we do if a child doesn't want to eat? We should just beat her up…? No, a pill of digestive tablet will cure her!"

     "Anorexia? Do you really know this disease? And what is the digestive tablet?" The bare-headed warrior monk asked hurriedly, after being delighted by Xu Que's words.

     Even Jiang Hongyan was also surprised, for she didn't expect Xu Que would know this disease!

     Xu Que replied with a faint smile, "I know everything about this disease! I even know the reason for it. The foods she eats everyday are too delicate, and she grew tired of eating those foods, which influenced her taste and digestive system. Maybe she also suffers from some mental diseases. All of these caused her anorexia! She doesn't want to eat anything and throws up anything she eats!"

     Gasp!

     The bare-headed warrior monk, who was totally puzzled, couldn't help but gasp because he had been impressed by Xu Que's words.

     After all, Xu Que's analysis was closely reasoned and quite convincing.

     Although Jiang Hongyan didn't know the meaning of terms like the digestive system or mental disease, she also figured out the reason of the Little Princess's disease in a muddled manner.

     "My fellow cultivator, do you really know how to cure this disease?" The bare-headed warrior monk asked excitedly.

     Xu Que nodded with a smile, "Exactly. I will try to cure this disease. However, you should allow me to see Lord Zeng first. After all, I am here to ask for medication from him!"

     "Eh.…" The smile was frozen on the bare-headed warrior monk's face. He scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "To tell you the truth, Lord Zeng has left to invite the Demonic Pill Old Man to refine pills during this convention. The Demonic Pill Old Man is also the leading role of this convention. But don't worry, if you could really cure this disease, you can attend the convention which will be held two days from now. And if you succeed, Lord Zeng will give you anything you ask for!"

     "No, I.…" Xu Que started to say. Before he finished his words, Jiang Hongyan dragged on his clothes gently.

     She said with a gentle smile as she looked at the bare-headed warrior monk, "We will sign up to attend the Divine Pill Convention!"

     "Amitabha, thank you, young lady! I will fetch a Divine Pill Plate for you!" The bare-headed monk bowed to Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan delightedly. Then, he left in a hurry.

     Xu Que asked as he looked at Jiang Hongyan curiously, "Little girl, why did you drag me here just now? What if Lord Zeng refuses to give us the Celestial Concealment Herb when I cure his daughter?"

     "Don't worry. I told you before that Lord Zeng is an eccentric person. But he is also a person who honors his word. Moreover, the Little Princess is his beloved daughter, who is more important than anything, so.…" Jiang Hongyan said with a smile.

     Before Jiang Hongyan could finish her words, Xu Que said with a smile, "So, if we could cure his daughter, we could even ask Lord Zeng to confront the Emperor, let alone the Celestial Concealment Herb, right?"

     Jiang Hongyan was surprised by Xu Que's words, which were unexpected. If Lord Zeng really agreed to confront the Emperor, it would be an optimal solution for their problem. They could even cancel the plan of getting the Celestial Concealment Herb.

     "My fellow cultivators, this is the Divine Pill Plate. Just come here two days from now with it. Please help us to cure our Little Princess's disease!" The bare-headed warrior monk returned with a small wood plate in his hand. A number was carved on the wooden plate.

     "OK, see you in two days!" Xu Que received the wooden plate with a smile. Then he left, holding Jiang Hongyan's hand.

     The Divine Pill Convention, right?

     The Anorexia, right?

     The Act-Tough Saint has got victory in the bag!

     831 The Divine Pill Convention

      Two days passed by in a twinkle!

     Xu Que was not used to living in this place. He was almost knocked out by the smell of the incense. Luckily, he could leave this place after two days. Otherwise, he would have left a long time ago!

     Two days later, the Divine Pill Convention was opened finally. Generally speaking, this convention was a competition of alchemy. When Xu Que arrived, the open area outside the pagoda was full of onlookers.

     More than 100 alchemy furnaces were placed in the center of this area. After a careful calculation, Xu Que counted at least 500 alchemy furnaces in this area! This meant that at least 500 people had signed up to enter this alchemy competition.

     "How could so many alchemists gather in the Myriad Buddhas Sect? What if someone really makes the pills that could cure anorexia?" Xu Que said in surprise. After all, anorexia was just a knotty disease on Earth, which was not incurable. This vast World of cultivators was full of talented and capable cultivators. The anorexia couldn't stump everyone in this world! Xu Que frowned and worried someone would cure this disease ahead of him.

     "Don't worry. If we fail this time, we can still talk to Lord Zeng!" Jiang Hongyan said gently as she held Xu Que's hand. She knew Xu Que quite well. If he was sure about something, he would be cheerful and confident instead of frowning.

     Xu Que shook his head, "I'm not nervous, but worry someone could cure this disease ahead of me or, if the little Princess's anorexia is serious, the pills I make might not be effective enough to cure her!"

     "It doesn't matter. Just go! I'll be right here waiting for you!" Jiang Hongyan said with a smile as she touched Xu Que's face gently.

     Confidence was surging in Xu Que's heart. Then he said, nodding his head, "Wait for my victorious return!" After saying that, he moved forward into the competition area immediately. Meanwhile, Xu Que couldn't help but smile.

     No wonder a successful man is always backed by a great woman!

     Jiang Hongyan was not only great, but also considerate. She was absolutely a perfect woman who was beautiful inside and outside!

     Just now, Xu Que was puzzled by some distracting thoughts. He was worrying about trifles like whether someone would cure this disease ahead of him. Ordinary people would only console him after knowing that, and say "come on, you can make it" at last! However, Jiang Hongyan was different. She only said, "Just go, and I'll be right here waiting for you!", which could be interpreted as she didn't care whether Xu Que would succeed or fail. The only thing she wanted was that Xu Que would come back to her after finishing his business! All of this could be summarized with one straightforward sentence – I don't care whether you will succeed or fail. For me, you are the most important person!

     …

     Xu Que walked through the crowds to the entrance guarded by several warrior monks. Then, he handed over his Divine Pill Plate. The warrior monks ushered him in and led him to an alchemy furnace.

     587! This was the number on Xu Que's plate, which was also the number of his alchemy furnace.

     Apparently, when Xu Que entered this competition, over 580 people had signed up ahead of him. So, his number lagged behind, and he had to sit in an inconspicuous position. Almost all the rest of the alchemists were sitting in front of their furnaces respectively. The most conspicuous alchemy furnaces, which were placed at the forefront, were still vacant.

     Normally, Xu Que would have asked to change his position at this time! The Act-Tough Saint should always stand in the spotlight. How could he stay in the corner? However, now he didn't care about this at all. Because someone was looking at him gently in the crowds, which was enough for him!

     Dong!

     At this time, a monk rang the bell and the crispy bell tone rang out!

     "Welcome the arrival of Nine Star Master Alchemist Senior Yun Yang Zi!" An old man stepped in along with the monk's shout. Then he walked to one of the alchemy furnaces at the forefront. All the alchemists in this area fixed their eyes on the newcomer with reverence immediately. The onlookers were in a turmoil.

     "My God! Lord Zeng is really resourceful. He even invited Yun Yang Zi here!"

     "Senior Yun Yang Zi is one of the rare Nine Star Master Alchemists in the Xuanzhen Continent. Only a few people could be prestigious enough to invite him!"

     "It's nothing. It is said that Lord Zeng even invited the Demonic Pill Old Man here!"

     "Holy crap! In this way, this Divine Pill Convention will become the competition of those experts!"

     "Of course! Except for those experts who are skillful enough to refine pills which could cure the little Princess, all the rest of the alchemists are simply here to fill the posts!"

     "Hah-hah, right! Flowers are more beautiful when they stand out against the green leaves. In this way, people could know how powerful those experts are!"

     When the onlookers were talking about today's convention, Xu Que also looked up at that old man. He was just an ordinary white-haired old man, who were quite common in the World of cultivators! However, his title as the Nine Star Master Alchemist was quite rare!

     It seemed the word "Master" was the only difference between a Master alchemist and an alchemist. However, the strength gap was so big that many people even couldn't fill it in their whole lives. In the Five Elements Mountain, a Nine Star Alchemist was almost like a god!

     In the Four Continents, a Nine Star Alchemist was also very extraordinary. However, a cultivator who had reached the One Star Master Alchemist from the Nine Star Alchemist would be fawned on by countless families and sects. Now, Nine Star Master Alchemists appeared in the Xuanzhen Continent, who would be worshipped and flattered by numerous big shots in the Four Continents.

     Dong!

     At this time, another bell tone rang out!

     "Welcome the arrival of Nine Star Master Alchemist Senior Zhuo Feng!"

     The next moment, another old man stepped in. The onlookers were in an uproar again. Xu Que's lips twitched. The Xuanzhen Continent was more powerful than the Four Continents, as expected. Two Nine Star Master Alchemists could show up together!

     Dong!

     Soon, the bell was rung again.

     "Welcome the arrival of Lord Zeng!"

     Dong!

     "Welcome the arrival of the One Star Grandmaster Alchemist Senior Demonic Pill!"

     The two shouts startled all the alchemists in this area. Even the experts like Yun Yang Zi and Zhuo Feng fixed their eyes on the newcomers in reverence! At the same time, the onlookers were totally in an uproar!

     "Holy crap! The Demonic Pill Old Man was really invited by Lord Zeng!"

     "He is the only Grandmaster Alchemist in the Xuanzhen Continent!"

     "Impressive! Now the little Princess's disease will definitely be cured!"

     "It seems Lord Zeng extracted a tremendous cost this time. The Demonic Pill Old Man is famous for his bad temper. He won't show due respect to anyone. Nobody could invite him easily!"

     …

     When the onlookers were talking, Xu Que also looked up at those newcomers. He saw a pot-bellied middle-aged man who walked to the stage holding an emaciated little girl with him. At the same time, a dark-skinned old man was walking behind them thoughtfully. This old man ignored the onlookers' uproar. He was led to the alchemy furnace which was placed at the most front place in the area.

     Apparently, the pot-bellied middle-aged man who looked like the Maitreya Buddha was Lord Zeng. The dark-skinned guy behind him was the only Grandmaster Alchemist, the Demonic Pill Old Man!

     However, the little girl who was beside the middle-aged man, who must be the little Princess suffering from anorexia, attracted Xu Que's attention. Although she was quite emaciated, her facial features were very exquisite. This little girl was standing on the stage sweetly. No wonder so many people loved her dearly after she got sick!

     This is a little bit troublesome!

     Seeing that, Xu Que couldn't help but touch his jaw. He murmured to himself, "She is so emaciated. I guess she hasn't eaten anything for a long time. I'm afraid the digestive pills won't work in this case!"

     However, after a short while, his eyes brightened slightly.

     It seems I have to use it this time!

     832 You Know Nothing!

      "I really appreciate your participation in this Divine Pill Convention for my daughter!"

     Lord Zeng gave his simple opening remarks to the alchemists in this area:

     "I guess all of you have known about the situation of my daughter. I organized this Divine Pill Convention to search for an elixir. If you can help my daughter to regain her appetite, I will do my best to satisfy all your requirements!"

     After saying that, he reached out his palm to touch the little Princess's head affectionately. He would give all he had and grant all kinds of request to save his daughter!

     Of course, this was also the confidence of a cultivator at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage. Only a few cultivators in the Xuanzhen Continent could rival him. Therefore, he would agree to grant all kinds of requests if someone could save his daughter.

     "Lord Zeng, we will do our best!" Many alchemists replied confidently as they bowed their heads and folded their hands to Lord Zeng.

     "Thank you! Then…I hereby announce the Divine Pill Convention begins officially!" Lord Zeng nodded at the alchemists with a smile.

     Dong!

     The convention started when a monk rang a bell.

     Then a lot of alchemists activated the pill furnaces in front of them and started the pill-refining by putting ingredients into the furnace. Some alchemists didn't start the refining immediately. After watching the little Princess carefully, their brows creased in concentration as they started to ponder her situation.

     Yun Yang Zi and Zhuo Feng fixed their eyes on the little Princess seriously. It seemed that it was very difficult for them to work out a solution. The Demonic Pill Old Man, who was standing at the forefront, was lost in deep thought from the very beginning as if there was no one else present.

     "Lord Zeng, I want to ask the little Princess a few questions!" A voice could be heard from behind suddenly at this time. Everyone in this area, including the audience, were startled and tried to find the speaker. They found a handsome young man who was raising his arm with a faint smile.

     People couldn't help but frown.

     "What? How could such a young man be an alchemist? He is too young!"

     "Alchemists who could attend the Divine Pill Convention should at least reach the Six-Star level. It is impossible for such a young man to be a Six-Star Alchemist!"

     "Damn! Is he the one who asked for medications here several days ago? His name is Exploding something, right?"

     "No! His name is February Red of the Exploding Heavens Faction!"

     "No! His name is February Purple of the Exploding Heavens Faction!"

     "What you have said is incorrect! His name is June Green of the Exploding Heavens Faction!"

     "Crap! What the hell is his name?"

     …

     Many people recognized that the one who raised his hand was Xu Que.

     Lord Zeng, who was standing on the stage, also fixed his eyes on Xu Que. Then he also frowned a bit. It seemed he also thought such a young man couldn't be very capable!

     "My daughter feels unwell now. I'm afraid she can't answer your questions, my young friend. Please just state your questions, I will answer them by representing my daughter!" Lord Zeng, who had a glimmer of hope, answered with a smile at last.

     "No! I'm afraid Lord Zeng is not able to answer my questions!" Xu Que said as he shook his head with a smile.

     The rest of the people in this area changed their expressions, their eyes wide.

     This guy is really bold! How dare he say no to Lord Zeng?

     "Oh? Really?" Lord Zeng asked with a smile. But his smile could even freeze the blood of the onlookers.

     Xu Que walked up with a calm smile. "Actually, I am not only an alchemist, but a doctor! My nickname is the Ultimate Miraculous Doctor! I am good at the treatment of incurable diseases. You should know that there are four ways of diagnosis – look, listen, question, and feel the pulse, right? Therefore, before preparing medications, I have to know the situation of your daughter personally!"

     "You are good at treating incurable disease?" Lord Zeng changed his expression slightly after hearing that. His attitude also became less aggressive. After a short while pondering, he said, nodding his head, "OK, you can come closer and state your questions!"

     Xu Que walked up to the stage and looked at the little Princess with a smile.

     The little Princess was a little bit shy with strangers. After being stared at by Xu Que closely, she lowered her head and wanted to step back.

     "Little Princess, don't be afraid! I will only ask you several questions! If you could answer them, I will give you a Barbie Doll!" Xu Que said with a smile.

     Hearing that, the little Princess stopped stepping back. Then she looked up timidly and asked in a tiny voice, "What is a Barbie Doll?"

     "I can't tell you that now! I just want to know whether you are angry…. Oh, sorry, wrong question! Here, see, this is a Barbie Doll!" Xu Que smiled as he took out a high-end limited-edition Barbie Doll that was purchased from the System store just now.

     The little Princess's eyes opened wide. It seemed she was quite interested in this toy. Even the onlookers were curious, for they hadn't seen such a fancy item before.

     "Now, you should answer my questions first, and I will give it to you, OK?" Xu Que asked in a demagogic tone as if he was a teacher. Even Lord Zeng couldn't help but frown at Xu Que's action.

     However, the little Princess said, as she nodded cooperatively, "OK!"

     "Good, what a nice girl! Here comes my first question – when you are eating, do you feel something in your throat that you can't spit out or swallow it?"

     "No!" The little Princess shook her head after thinking about it for a short while. However, her eyes were still fixed on the doll in Xu Que's hands.

     Xu Que said with a smile, "Good! Here comes the second question – when you are eating, do you feel the foods are not delicious, or do you have the feeling of nausea when you see food?"

     This time the little Princess replied directly without hesitation, "Both!"

     "Good girl! OK, I don't have other questions! This Barbie Doll is yours now!" Xu Que handed the doll to the little Princess with a smile.

     "Thank you, brother!" The little Princess was quite happy. She ran to Xu Que and got the doll happily. She even didn't forget to thank Xu Que.

     At this time, Xu Que stood up and said as he looked at Lord Zeng with a faint smile, "Lord Zeng, I basically can conclude that your daughter, who is a picky eater, is suffering from anorexia! Our Exploding Heavens Faction has at least 100 methods to cure her!"

     "What?" Lord Zeng asked in surprise. "Do you really mean it?"

     The rest of the alchemists were also stunned as they looked at Xu Que in disbelief. Even Yun Yang Zi and Zhuo Feng stared at Xu Que in surprise.

     This is a strange disease that none of us could find a therapeutic method for even by racking our brains. How could this guy say he has 100 methods to cure it?

     Are you kidding?

     "Nonsense!"

     At this time, an angry shout rang out. Everyone turned around and was shocked by what they saw. The one who scolded was the Demonic Pill Old Man who had been silent for a long time.

     He said coldly as he stared at Xu Que, "I've never heard of your ridiculous damn anorexia! How dare such a young man talk nonsense in front of me? The little Princess is an ordinary person. She couldn't swallow any foods because her vital organs have been pampered by rare pills and elixirs!"

     Holy crap!

     Xu Que was annoyed. He turned around and said angrily, "You know nothing! Stop your nonsense! Do you know where you are? Do you know you can't say dirty words when children are around? Your mouth is full of crappy dirty words! Are you really a civilized person?"

     "You…."

     "What the hell are you going to say? I hope you could know the situation clearly and think twice before saying something. Aren't those crap symptoms you said just now anorexia? This is so easy for members of the Exploding Heavens Faction!"

     Xu Que cursed the Demonic Pill Old Man by pointing at him. His sudden reaction shocked the Demonic Pill Old Man.

     The little Princess was also stunned.

     Lord Zeng was dumbfounded!

     All the rest of the people in the area were also totally shocked on the spot.

     How could a foul-mouthed man blame another person as uncivilized?

     He has no self-knowledge at all!

     More important, the one who he is cursing is the Demonic Pill Old Man!

     Everyone in the Xuanzhen Continent knows the bad temper of the Demonic Pill Old Man!

     Everyone knows he can be annoyed easily!

     There is no difference between provoking him and seeking death!

     "Good, very good! Ignorant junior.…" The Demonic Pill Old Man was so angry that his eyes were full of the kill intent, as if he was about to kill Xu Que.

     Xu Que asked angrily, while widening his eyes, "What is good? I just want to ask you what is good? Do you think I will slap your face by working out a pill to cure little Princess? No, you are wrong! I quit! This is unacceptable for a member of the Exploding Heavens Faction. Farewell!"

     After saying that, Xu Que turned around gracefully and was about to leave, shocking all the rest of the people in the area!

     833 Throw Them Out!

      "Bastard, do you want to leave?"

     When Xu Que had taken only a few steps, the angry roar of the Demonic Pill Old Man echoed out!

     For Xu Que, his words were equal to "How dare you run away after acting tough?"

     Chi!

     Instantly, a strand of blue flame appeared in the hand of the Demonic Pill Old Man, who was about to throw it at Xu Que.

     Xu Que turned around abruptly and asked with a cold smile, "What? Are you going to kill me in front of Lord Zeng? Come on, I will stand right here! If you are not a coward, just kill me!"

     He even stretched out his head toward the Demonic Pill Old Man.

     The rest of the people in the area opened their eyes wide as they murmured to themselves – this guy is so wicked!

     The Demonic Pill Old Man came to himself immediately. Then, he put out the blue flame in his hand and started to stare at Xu Que with intense kill intent.

     Xu Que's words had calmed him down. Everyone knew Lord Zeng's rules clearly. In front of the Buddha, nobody was allowed to gossip, let alone kill a person! After all, it was not just a problem of the temper and rules. If he killed Xu Que here, he would break Lord Zeng's rules as if he slapped Lord Zeng in the face. No matter how prestigious he was, the Demonic Pill Old Man had to consider this, for he didn't want to offend Lord Zeng.

     "Humph! Today I will show due respect to Lord Zeng. But you have to stay in this place for the rest of your life. Whenever you leave here, I will definitely kill you!" The Demonic Pill Old Man snorted as he stared at Xu Que coldly.

     "Thank you, my fellow cultivator!" Lord Zeng said with a smile, nodding his head. Normally, as such a powerful and distinguished cultivator, Lord Zeng didn't need to be so humble in front of the Demonic Pill Old Man. However, the Demonic Pill Old Man was the most powerful alchemist in this continent. He was the only one who could most likely save the little Princess. If the Demonic Pill Old Man really attacked Xu Que here, Lord Zeng wouldn't stop him by hiding the dissatisfaction in his heart.

     At this time, Xu Que said with a smile as he shook his head, "I've given you a chance to kill me. Now, it's my turn to kill you!"

     After saying that, he threw out a punch at the Demonic Pill Old Man without any hesitation.

     Who said people can't gossip and kill others in front of the Buddha?

     Why can't I do that?

     This rule will never scare the Act-Tough Saint away!

     Boom!

     Instantly, a King of Tough-Acting Fist, which cost him 20,000 Acting Tough Points, was flying toward the Demonic Pill Old Man!

     A giant golden fist took shape in front of the Demonic Pill Old Man. Then, it distorted the void and smashed at him with magnificent and horrible strength.

     "What?" The Demonic Pill Old Man had just reached Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage. Xu Que's attack startled him, and he had to step back hurriedly.

     At the same time, Lord Zeng, who was on the stage, also changed his expression. On the one hand, he didn't expect Xu Que would be so reckless to attack in this place. On the other hand, he didn't expect Xu Que would be so powerful, for Xu Que's strength had far exceeded the other cultivators at the Form Synthesis Stage!

     The rest of the people in the area were also dumbfounded.

     None of them expected Xu Que could launch an attack when the Demonic Pill Old Man stopped his.

     This is so overbearing!

     How could a cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage attack a cultivator at the Great Vehicle Stage?

     It seems he is far more powerful than cultivators at the Form Synthesis Stage. His attack was even more horrible than that of the cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage!

     "Stop!"

     Just at this time, Lord Zeng's sonorous voice shouted out. His powerful and thunderous shout was just like the serene and subtle Buddhist Voice, which stopped the giant golden fist directly.

     "What?" Xu Que was surprised.

     He stopped the King of Tough-Acting Fist with just a shout!

     How could this be?

     "Little brat, don't act recklessly. Lord Zeng is good at Buddhist magic arts. The Buddhist Voice he made just now could cleanse all magic arts and suppress Taoist Connotation!" Jiang Hongyan reminded Xu Que at this time.

     Xu Que realized the fact through Jiang Hongyan's suggestion.

     It means the peace and quiet I felt just now were not my illusions! It would be Lord Zeng's Taoist Connotation. My Taoist Connotation is not powerful enough, so it was stopped by Lord Zeng!

     "My young friend, what do you mean?" Lord Zeng asked as he looked at Xu Que coldly at this time.

     The Demonic Pill Old Man also stopped. He was so angry that he couldn't help but tremble all over. He couldn't wait to kill Xu Que immediately.

     Xu Que squinted his eyes slightly as he put his hands behind his back. Then he said with a faint smile, "Lord Zeng, you have your rules. The Exploding Heavens Faction also has its rules. This old fart tried to kill me just now. Why can't I fight back?"

     "This is my place. Anyone in this place shall obey my rules!" Lord Zeng said coldly as he stared at Xu Que aggressively.

     "Sorry, the rule of the Exploding Heavens Faction is we act tough wherever we are! For us, only the rules of the Exploding Heavens Faction are supreme!" Xu Que shrugged and said calmly.

     All the rest of the people in the area were totally dumbfounded and speechless.

     For so many years, nobody had dared to be so overbearing in front of Lord Zeng!

     Moreover, he is just a young man at the Form Synthesis Stage! Is he insane or tired of life?

     "Humph! How arrogant you are! You…." Lord Zeng scolded.

     Xu Que interrupted his words directly, "This is because I am entitled to be arrogant! Lord Zeng, don't you want to save your daughter? If you don't, just tell me and I will leave here immediately!"

     Lord Zeng changed his expression a bit. After pondering it for a short while, he said dubiously, "Are you sure you can cure the disease of my daughter?"

     "Humph! Lord Zeng, do you really believe his nonsense?" the Demonic Pill Old Man snorted at this time. Then, he said seriously as he looked at Xu Que, "Nobody in this world could save a person who I can't save! You are just a young man; how dare you brag in front of me?"

     The rest of the people in the area also nodded to show their approval. Then, they started to look at Xu Que disdainfully.

     Yun Yang Zi said directly, "What Demonic Pill Old Man said is correct! If he can't save a person, this person will be incurable for all the rest of the people in this world!"

     "Exactly! The Demonic Pill Old Man is the No. 1 alchemist in this world! Nobody could be more capable than him in alchemy!" Zhuo Feng also nodded his head.

     Everyone was on the side of the Demonic Pill Old Man! This made the Demonic Pill Old Man less angry and calmed him down.

     He looked at Xu Que and sneered. "In front of so many fellow cultivators, I don't mind telling the truth! Till now, I haven't found a way to cure the little Princess's weird disease! I think only a Celestial Elixir would be effective! You said you know how to cure this disease! I don't think you can do that, except if you could find a Celestial Elixir!"

     "Right! Just now you said you know how to cure the disease. Please do it in front of us!" several alchemists, who wanted to fawn on the Demonic Pill Old Man, said immediately.

     "If you are only good at talking, just get lost!"

     …

     "You are just a bunch of foolish guys who know nothing about anorexia!" Xu Que said with a smile as he took out a small item.

     It was a lollipop!

     However, it was not an ordinary lollipop! It was a unique commodity in the System store, which was so delicious that children under 15 couldn't stop eating it.

     "Little Princess, here, enjoy it, and be my guest!" Xu Que handed the lollipop to the little Princess.

     The little Princess came up curiously. Then, she received the lollipop and inserted it into her mouth directly.

     "Wait!" Lord Zeng was shocked. He had never seen such a thing before. How could the little Princess eat it in this way? What if it was poisonous?

     However, he was too late. After inserting the lollipop in her mouth, the little Princess started to smile happily and her big eyes were just like the crescent moon.

     Delicious candy could always open people's heart.

     Although the little Princess always ate all kinds of rare and precious elixirs and foods, she was still an ordinary girl who could never resist a unique and sweet candy!

     "Daddy, the thing given by this brother is so delicious!" the little Princess said joyfully as she looked up at Lord Zeng and even didn't take the lollipop out of her mouth.

     All at once, Lord Zeng was stunned.

     The Demonic Pill Old Man was dumbfounded.

     All the alchemists and audiences in the area were shocked.

     The little Princess…is eating!

     She even said…it is so delicious!

     "Lord Zeng, this is just an appetizer!" Xu Que said with a faint smile at this time.

     However, the next moment, the smile disappeared from his face abruptly. Then, he said seriously, "Now I want to know do you really want to cure your daughter's disease? If you want to, just throw these incapable old farts out!"

     834 This Is My Bottom Line!

      Swish!

     The air all around was abruptly frozen. All the people in the area were surprised, and they couldn't believe what they had just heard.

     What did he say just now?

     Throw those incapable old farts out?

     "Holy crap!"

     "Is he insane?"

     "They include nine Star Master Alchemists and one Star Grandmaster Alchemist! Even if you have reached Level 2 or Level 3 of the Great Vehicle Stage, you can't throw the Master Alchemists and Grandmaster Alchemist out at will!"

     "No, the worst part is that he threatened Lord Zeng!"

     "He tried to tell Lord Zeng that he wouldn't save the little Princess if the Demonic Pill Old Man, Yun Yang Zi, and Zhuo Feng were not thrown out!"

     "He is embarrassing Lord Zeng! Is it really necessary?"

     Many people shook their heads in shock.

     In this way, even if Xu Que could save the little Princess, Lord Zeng will never forgive him after that. I guess Lord Zeng might even retaliate for what he did today!

     This is really unnecessary!

     Did he just want to vent his anger by doing that?

     "My young friend, this…" Lord Zeng frowned and didn't know what to say at this time. He knew clearly Xu Que's arrogance came from his confidence in curing the disease of his daughter. However, his request was too embarrassing! Of course, if Xu Que insisted on throwing them out, he would have to do it, for it was related to the life of his daughter.

     And this issue would end up as all the onlookers predicted – Lord Zeng would never get along with Xu Que after that, for he thought Xu Que was definitely a psycho!

     "Lord Zeng, stop your hesitation, this is your daughter! She is still a little girl. Do you really have the heart to watch her starvation?" Xu Que continued trying to persuade him.

     Everyone in the area, including Lord Zeng, twitched their lips in anger and were very anxious to beat this guy to death!

     It turns out you also know the little Princess is a little girl!

     How the hell could you threaten Lord Zeng with her life?

     "Humph! What a despicable bastard! It is not necessary to embarrass Lord Zeng. We will leave on our own!" The Demonic Pill Old Man snorted at this time. He wanted to leave voluntarily to do Lord Zeng a favor.

     "Wait!" Xu Que shouted immediately. Then he sneered. "Who said you could leave on your own? I want you to be thrown out! Do you understand human language?"

     "Little bastard, are you really going to have a desperate fight with us today?" the Demonic Pill Old Man shouted angrily. He was almost driven mad by anger. Because he worried that if he was really thrown out, he would become the laughingstock of the entire Xuanzhen Continent in the future.

     "My young friend, could you please do me a favor?" Lord Zeng sighed and asked in a begging tone at last.

     "Do you a favor?" Xu Que rolled his eyes and shouted abruptly, "Never! I am the one who was insulted. Lord Zeng, I don't want to make trouble. They went too far this time. I want them to be thrown out because I want to show due respect to you! Otherwise, the three of them would have died a long time ago according to the rules of the Exploding Heavens Faction!"

     Then, Xu Que continued to say with a cold smile, "Don't doubt my words. None of those who are targeted by the Exploding Heavens Faction can survive! Today, nobody could change my mind. Just throw them out, for this is my bottom line!"

     His words froze all the air in this area.

     The Demonic Pill Old Man and another two Master Alchemists almost burst with anger. If Lord Zeng had not been here, they would have already attacked Xu Que! Lord Zeng was hesitating about whether he should throw them out.

     At this time, a warrior monk in the crowd frowned at this messy situation. After a short hesitation, he sent a secret message to Lord Zeng.

     After receiving his message, Lord Zeng's eyes lit up, and he became much more certain about what he wanted to do.

     "Are you sure they were here for a medication?" Lord Zeng replied to the monk.

     "Yes, Lord Zeng, I gave a Divine Pill Plate to him. He came here to ask for a medication from you. When he knew the problem of the little Princess, he narrated the cause confidently. Therefore, I asked him to participate in this convention. I didn't expect…"

     "It's OK. It's not your fault, so don't blame yourself. If he really came here to ask for a medication from me, I'm afraid only the medication could attract his attention now.…" Lord Zeng said, as if he had made up his mind.

     He looked up at Xu Que as he waved his hand slightly to take out a jade box from his storage ring.

     "My young friend, I've heard you were here to ask for a medication from me. The only medication I have which is valuable is this Celestial Concealment Herb. Do you…?" Lord Zeng asked.

     Before Lord Zeng could finish his words, Xu Que walked up and received the jade box with a shiny smile on his face.

     "Thank you, Lord Zeng! Let's forget all about our argument! After all, it was just a trifle. It is quite normal for people who are full of sentiment to quarrel and dispute! It is not necessary to damage our friendship!"

     After saying that, Xu Que turned to the Demonic Pill Old Man and asked earnestly, "Right? Demonic Pill Old Man? We should drink tea together when we have time!"

     Nobody wants to drinking your crappy tea!

     The Demonic Pill Old Man's lips twitched, and he almost spat blood.

     The rest of the people, including Lord Zeng, after rolling their eyes, were also stunned and almost passed out because of the tremendous change in Xu Que's attitude.

     Where is your determination?

     Didn't you say you will obey the rules of the Exploding Heavens Faction?

     Didn't you say your bottom line is to throw them out?

     Do you really have a bottom line?

     Everyone was completely dumbfounded by Xu Que's shameless actions. Now all of them knew the reason that Xu Que had made so much noise and trouble here was to obtain that Celestial Concealment Herb!

     "OK, OK, guys, just mind your own business! I will start to cure little Princess's disease now. What a poor girl. She has been tortured by the anorexia for such a long time. I can't watch it anymore!"

     Xu Que walked to the little Princess as he took out another lollipop. Then, he said like an amiable brother, "Little Princess, just stay here and enjoy this candy. I will prepare something more delicious for you!"

     "OK, thank you, big brother!" The Princess replied with a shiny smile as she held the lollipop tightly in her hands.

     The rest of the people in the area were almost driven mad.

     This guy is really good at switching between an angel and a devil!

     On the other hand, a strand of a smile appeared on Lord Zeng's face at last. His heart was at rest when he saw that his daughter was eating something happily.

     "Lord Zeng, I will start to refine pills now. I will do my best to save your daughter, but my ingredients are quite expensive. If the little Princess would regain her appetite,…" Xu Que said perplexedly as he looked at Lord Zeng at this time.

     Lord Zeng replied immediately, "My young friend, please don't worry. No matter how expensive your ingredients are, I will compensate you by doubling the price of your ingredients!"

     "Eh, Lord Zeng, this is really not necessary! Actually, I also know some Buddhism. To save a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. I will never stand aside when someone is in peril! Moreover, money will ruin our friendship! So, Lord Zeng, please do me a favor and don't insult me with money anymore!" Xu Que said with his face full of righteousness.

     To save a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda?

     Lord Zeng was surprised by Xu Que's words as he stared at Xu Que in disbelief.

     How could these words that are full of Buddhist wisdom be uttered by such a person? Is this guy also a Buddhist?

     No, this is definitely impossible!

     If this guy is a Buddhist, Buddhism will be stained by him!

     "Eh, I really appreciate your noble character and sterling integrity, my young friend, and please forgive my scanty consideration!" Lord Zeng replied with a faint smile as he nodded his head. He didn't want to ask Xu Que where he had learned that Buddhist term.

     "You flatter me, Lord Zeng! Actually, I do have a small request!" Xu Que stated with a smile.

     The onlookers were not surprised. Their faces were full of the expression of "I knew it".

     Lord Zeng, who had also anticipated this, replied by nodding his head immediately, "My young friend, if you can cure my daughter's disease, I will do whatever I can to satisfy all your requests as I promised before!"

     "Great! That's why you are Lord Zeng! In fact, I offended a tough guy recently. Of course, I'm not afraid of him. I just don't want to deal with him personally. Therefore, I hope Lord Zeng could help me to…" Xu Que said as he looked at Lord Zeng.

     Lord Zeng said immediately, "Now I know what happened. Don't worry, my young friend. I can't promise you a lot of things, but at least I am confident that I can protect your safety in the Xuanzhen Continent! However, I can't stay with you all the time. So, this time, I will help you to deal with your enemy!"

     "Your words really reassure me, Lord Zeng! OK, I will start to refine the pills!" Xu Que walked to his Pill Refining Furnace as he winked at Jiang Hongyan who was in the crowd.

     Jiang Hongyan has been totally dumbfounded by his actions. She didn't expect that Xu Que would manage to obtain the Celestial Concealment Herb before saving the little Princess. Moreover, if he could save the little Princess, Lord Zeng would help them to deal with their enemy!

     My little brat…you are really awesome!

     835 Ahh, What A Huge Waste!

      Hundreds of pill-refining furnaces stood atop the vast plains. Many of the alchemists had already started to refine their pills. Although no one had expected Xu Que to appear suddenly, there were still many alchemists who remained wholly focused on their furnaces the whole time.

     In contrast, the three most attention-grabbing alchemists – the famous Yun Yang Zi, Zhuo Feng, and the Demonic Pill Old Man – did not even bother to start their fires. They merely stood where they had arrived and kept their eyes on Xu Que. They knew full well the cause of the little Princess's illness. Her constitution had been changed entirely by all the precious herbs and unusual ingredients that she had consumed since she was a young girl. The only way to cure her illness was to feed her with celestial elixirs of an even higher level.

     However, that method was, ultimately, a temporary solution. First of all, finding a divine elixir was no easy feat. Secondly, even if they had managed to find the elixir, the little Princess would adjust to that level of medicine in no time, and the same problem would recur. In light of this situation, they had run out of ways to cure her despite their superb pill-refining skills.

     Now that Xu Que had volunteered and confidently claimed that he could solve the problem, the trio took this opportunity to avoid failing in public. Instead, they stood aside to see Xu Que disgraced by his foolery. In their minds, while the candy that Xu Que gave to the little Princess was effective, it was still a useless attempt. After all, the little Princess was mortal and therefore could never live off simply candies. All that was left to do was to wait for Xu Que to make a fool out of himself and to be driven out by Lord Zeng! When that happened, the three of them would have plenty of time to settle their scores with Xu Que.

     "Young friend, would you mind enlightening me on the pill that you are making?" Lord Zeng asked curiously, upon seeing Xu Que's confidence in front of the furnace.

     Xu Que smiled. "I am refining a secret holy medicine from the Exploding Heavens Faction, specially tailored for anorexic patients!"

     After that, he waved his arm widely and pulled out an iron bowl. With a series of crisp sounds, click click click, small yellow round pills began to fill the pot.

     "What is that yellow stuff?" The crowd was curious.

     "Medicinal item?"

     "Damn, is he processing ready-made pills? What kind of alchemy is that?"

     Many frowned at his actions, including the many alchemists present who now paid close attention to Xu Que.

     Splash!

     Xu Que suddenly pulled out a jade bottle. He then poured clear, crystalline water onto the yellow matter.

     Upon seeing that, the Demonic Pill Old man sneered and said, "You have mixed so many unidentified pills and added them to the water. One look is enough to conclude that you know nothing about pill-refining. What a waste of precious ingredients!"

     Sigh! "He is less than a beginner!" Yun Yang Zi shook his head too.

     Lord Zeng was also perplexed and found himself questioning Xu Que's alchemy skills. So far, Xu Que's pill-refining process had made no sense.

     "Eh, no, I don't think those are pills!" All of a sudden, the nearest onlooker who was standing behind Xu Que exclaimed.

     "They look like soybeans instead of pills!"

     "What the heck, they're soybeans! What's that fella trying to pull?"

     Many people had noticed that the yellow particles that Xu Que poured into the water were merely soybeans.

     The Demonic Pill Old Man and Yun Yang Zi stiffened and swallowed all their words. They were so embarrassed that they wanted to dig a hole and jump into it! They had not expected to be humiliated so quickly after laughing at Xu Que for dissolving the bulk of the pills in water. Who would have thought that they were soybeans and not medicinal items!

     "Hmph, you are all wrong! Open your eyes big and wide and take a closer look! These are not ordinary soybeans, but 100% natural soybeans that the Exploding Heavens Faction hand-picked from the highest peak of the Heavenly Mountain. Each of them is full, round, and sparkles like gems. Therefore, they are also known as the 'Exploding Heavens Faction Invincible Heavenly Mountain's Super Citrine Incredible Soybeans'!" Xu Que said proudly.

     However, the truth was that those soybeans were precious ingredients that he had redeemed from the System store. Ordinary soybeans could not compare!

     "By the way, do you know what this water is? Come on, take a sniff! Oh, I see your eyes have widened, my friend! You must have guessed. Yes, exactly, this is Living Holy Water!" Xu Que picked up the jade bottle and boasted.

     A commotion broke out among the people.

     "Living Holy Water?"

     "What the hell, to have used such precious material to refine his pill, it seems like he's not playing around!"

     "Oh my goodness, this medicine would jump at least two or three ranks now that it's infused with the Living Holy Water!"

     People were in awe, and even the Demonic Pill Old Man and Yun Yang Zi could not help but stare and gulp.

     To an alchemist, the Living Holy Water was a rare item that they had always dreamed of obtaining. With a few drops, it could improve the success rate of pill-refining and improve the grade of every pill. However, right before their eyes, Xu Que had taken out a whole basin of it. How could they not be envious and jealous?

     "Well, gentlemen, I'm going to start!" Only then did Xu Que finally look serious as he focused his gaze on the bowl. Then he rolled up his sleeves and shoved his hand directly into the bowl, stirring the soybeans into the Holy Living Water.

     The audience was stunned once again.

     What kind of procedure was that? Do alchemists even need to mix the ingredients by hand?

     "All right!" Suddenly, Xu Que bellowed as he swung the bowl upwards!

     Slosh!

     At that moment, the Holy Water and the pile of soybeans flew toward the sky at the same time. Xu Que held the bowl in one hand and quickly pinched a magic art with his fingers.

     Swoosh! Swosh! Swoosh!

     Within seconds, his hand had formed tens of thousands of illusions. Each of his delusions picked every single soybean out of the air and threw them into the iron basin.

     Splat!

     Then, before the crowd could react, the remaining holy water spilled directly onto the ground.

     "What the crap, don't,…" Someone cried out at once.

     However, it was too late. All of the water that had spilled onto the ground lost all its effects upon contamination by dust. Along with the water, everyone's hearts dropped to the ground. So much Living Holy Water had gone to waste!

     What a waste of an unusual ingredient!

     What the hell was he doing, how could he make such a blunder?

     "Ha, ha, as expected of the Living Holy Water. Look at how fresh and clean my soybeans are!" Xu Que held up the iron bowl and showed off his soybeans to those who surrounded him.

     No one could believe their ears. Then, they trembled and almost vomited at the realization.

     Crap!

     Screw you!

     You've created all this ruckus, and now you're telling us that you were washing the soybeans?

     Damn you!

     Moreover, you washed the soybeans with the Living Holy Water!

     Bang!

     Suddenly, a muffled thud came from behind Xu Que. The Demonic Pill Old Man had smashed the Pill Furnace beside him in a fit of anger.

     Yun Yang Zi's eyes were bloodshot and furious.

     Seeing Xu Que squander the Living Holy Water caused much more anguish to them than killing them directly!

     Ding! "Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting tough. You have been rewarded 8,000 Acting Tough Points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting tough. You have been rewarded 9,000 Acting Tough Points!"

     Ding! "Congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for acting an 'Extravagant Tough'. You have received a special reward of 30,000 Acting Tough Points!"

     ...

     The System notifications rang in Xu Que's mind. He smiled indifferently. Acted an extravagant tough? What's so extravagant about this? Isn't this just some Living Holy Water? I have more than enough!

     He shook his head and redeemed a grinding machine from the System store. With some swishing and sloshing, he poured the soybeans into the grinder and added more Holy Water. Then he used some True Core Strength to start up the mill.

     Buzz!

     The grinder began to rotate rapidly, crushing all the soybeans and mixing them into the Living Holy Water. The audience stared intently, curious and confused. They couldn't understand the process at all. A moment later, Xu Que stopped the grinder and poured out a light yellow, sticky substance. After some filtering, a pot of fresh soybean milk, glittering brilliantly, appeared in front of everyone!

     All were stunned.

     "This...is this soymilk?"

     "What's happening?"

     "Wasn't he doing pill-refining? What's up with this pot full of soymilk?"

     Most were confused. Even Lord Zeng became fidgety. He asked, "What are you doing exactly, my little friend?"

     Xu Que smiled. "Don't worry, Lord Zeng. It's just the beginning!"

     836 Exploding Heavens Faction’s Exclusive Medicated Die

      Is it just the beginning? Everyone became more confused after Xu Que said that. As for those, like the Demonic Pill Old Man and Yun Yang Zi, they were left even more bewildered about the situation. Having studied alchemy for many years, they had never seen such a method of pill refinement. They had also never heard of any alchemy that required soybeans or soy milk. Furthermore, Xu Que had not even touched the Pill Refining Furnace. What kind of pill refining was that?

     Bang!

     A loud thud suddenly cut through their train of thought. Xu Que had suddenly slapped the Pill Refining Furnace, making it rumble. All eyes were on him as a wisp of green flame burst out from his palm. It pierced into the hearth of the furnace and stirred the fire to a higher temperature.

     "It's finally about to begin!"

     "Let's see what kind of pill he's making!"

     Everyone began to anticipate his next move. However, Xu Que turned away as soon as he lit the furnace fire. He picked up the bowl of heated soy milk and lowered it into cold water. Then, a flame burst out from his palm again, warming the cold water from the bottom. A short time later, the top layer of the soybean milk slowly solidified into a piece of curd skin.

     Xu Que speedily picked up the beancurd skin and threw it up in the air! The beancurd skin quickly reached the highest point of the parabola, after which it fell, after absorbing Spiritual Qi. As it fell, it naturally curled into a roll-like strip.

     Whiz!

     Suddenly, Xu Que unleashed an immense amount of Soul Strength. He divided a small strand of the Soul Strength and used it to control the beancurd skin strips. He held the pieces in midair, allowing the sun to dry them. People couldn't help but be stunned.

     Could soybean milk be used that way?

     At the same time, Xu Que repeated the procedure. He continued to make beancurd skins out of soybean milk, pulled them out, then threw them into the air. Soon, the large pot of soybean milk had been used up to make hundreds of curd skins. They were hung up in the sun to be air-dried.

     "What on earth is he trying to do?"

     "Never in our history have I heard of someone refining a pill using soybeans, let alone soybean milk and beancurd skin!"

     "He went through all the hassle to make these beancurd skin strips. Since they are now full of Qi, don't tell me that he's going to knead them into granules and make pills from there?"
