Xu Que was astonished. He did not expect that his random pick had gotten him a female follower from his Exploding Heavens Faction!
The only problem was that the female follower was too ordinary and unattractive. Maybe she just looked too flat in her black robe. Maybe she was too tired from all the fleeing for so many years, and her face was covered with dust and blood. It was hard to distinguish her gender; she didn’t look like a female at all!
“Uh, reporting to the Faction Leader, I’m the female follower. My name is Zhang Suyue,” she replied in an awkward manner.
Xu Que laughed. “Good name, good name, all right, enough nonsense, tell me about everything you know, such as the recent rumors about the Celestial Burial Valley!”
“Celestial Burial Valley…” Zhang Suyue was startled for a second, but soon she reported on everything she had seen and heard in the East Continent. Along the way, Xu Que sort of figured out the general situation.
The so-called Immortal Cultivators weren’t targeting the Nine Deathtraps such as the Celestial Burial Valley in the first place. They were here merely because the Xuanzhen Continent had undergone a drastic transformation. There had been a crack in the Void, affecting the Shackle Spell of The Four Great Continents!
When the spell was broken, the Immortal Cultivators came in just a night, occupying several sites abundant in Spiritual Qi. Subsequently, they discovered the Nine Deathtraps, especially the Celestial Burial Valley, which amazed them.
“Faction Leader, coincidentally I was somewhere close to the East Continent’s Celestial Burial Valley then. One of them was expressing his amazement when he came out of the Celestial Burial Valley. He even mentioned that the place was the Heavenly Human Tribe’s tomb!” Zhang Suyue continued.
Xu Que was astounded.
The Heavenly Human Tribe? Those extremely arrogant and haughty angels?
He had encountered them when he was on his route to Immortal Attainment. To his surprise, now he found out that the Celestial Burial Valley was their tribe’s tomb!
“It’s interesting that they would recognize the people of the Heavenly Human Tribe. I guess there must be some of them in the World of Near Celestial too!” Xu Que’s eyes narrowed and he smiled faintly.
Zhang Suyue was confused. “Faction Leader, have you seen those from the Heavenly Human Tribe? Why are they called the Heavenly Human?”
“That’s what they called themselves. In fact, they’re just a group of human-birds with wings. The key is that they’re extremely weak. In the end, they were annihilated by me!” Xu Que explained proudly.
In the first place, if they hadn’t been too arrogant to provoke him, he wouldn’t have annihilated that tribe. He could only say that the other side was simply seeking death! But the bottom line was the law of survival in the World of Cultivators—the survival of the fittest!
Zhang Suyue’s face was stiff when she heard his words—annihilated the entire tribe? Such a thing…was really the style of their Faction Leader!
…..
After gaining a basic understanding of the general situation and seeing that Zhang Suyue didn’t know much, Xu Que didn’t ask any more questions. Instead, he rushed all the way to the Celestial Burial Valley!
Previously, he had wanted to inquire about something from those aces in the Half-Celestial Stage, but they were too arrogant. Moreover, they were hard to catch alive, so he simply killed them. Otherwise he would know more about the situation now.
It seems that I have to advance further. If I could step into the Mahayana, the Great Vehicle Stage, I could then capture a few to interrogate with torture! Xu Que was secretly making plans to himself.
He had killed seven in the Half-Celestial Stage, and, as a result, he attained a minor cultivation stage and stepped into the fifth stage of the Crossing Calamity Stage. In the future, the experience points he needed would get higher and higher. He estimated that he would need to kill at least 70 or 80 Half-Celestials before he could enter the Mahayana, the Great Vehicle Stage!
It was a journey of upgrading that Xu Que was gradually feeling was a little too slow, but his own cultivation was even slower. He wasn’t used to it! Ah, this is utterly depressing!
…..
Two weeks later, after Xu Que’s depressing sighs, he finally arrived at the East Continent’s Celestial Burial Valley! As Zhang Suyue had described, the entrance of the Celestial Burial Valley was set up with a Celestial Spell Array. Spiritual Qi was all around and it was emitting a strong murderous vibe. Even when he wasn’t up close, it made his hair stand on end. There was a feeling of suffocation!
“Uh? It’s a Celestial Spell Array at Half-star Level!” Xu Que was instantly dumbfounded. The level of that Celestial Spell Array was beyond his imagination; it had reached a Half-star Level.
Previously, in the Mystery Land of the South Continent, he bought a Black Tortoise Array which was worth 500,000 Acting Tough Points; it was only at the One-star Level. He had never thought that those aces from Half-Celestial could lay a Celestial Spell Array at Half-star Level in the entire valley. Their backgrounds weren’t that simple. No wonder Duan Jiude had been badly defeated!
“Faction Leader, what should we do now? They’re all in the Celestial Burial Valley, but if we get close, we’ll be discovered!” Zhang Suyue lowered her voice.
Both of them were hiding behind the boulders, dozens of miles away from the Celestial Burial Valley, observing it from a safe distance.
When Xu Que heard Zhang Suyue’s questions, he shook his head, “This landscape is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Coupled with this Celestial Spell Array, I’m afraid we can’t sneak in.”
“Ah? What can we do?” Zhang Suyue was muddled; she thought to herself that the Celestial Spell Array was indeed remarkable, if even their Faction Leader was at a loss of what to do.
However, Xu Que smiled. “What can we do? Since we can’t sneak in, we can only barge in forcefully!”
Barged in forcefully? Zhang Suyue was taken aback. That Celestial Spell Array was so dreadful and their Faction Leader was going to just barge in?
“No…no, don’t be impulsive!” Zhang Suyue urged.
“No, it’s not an impulse, I’ve decided on it. You’ll wait for me here; witness how I drive straight into the enemy’s den!” Xu Que smiled lightly, as he slapped a hand gesture to call out his Firestorm Wheels. Then he bolted through the sky!
Boom!
Accompanied by a tumultuous noise from the Firestorm Wheels, Xu Que turned into a shadow as he bolted to the entrance of the Celestial Burial Valley in a blink of an eye.
Zhang Suyue stared wide-eyed. All she saw was Xu Que holding onto his Dark Heavenly Sword in one hand as he tore open the protection screen with ease. Then his figure vanished as he directly entered the Celestial Spell Array!
“A…awesome!” Zhang Suyue couldn’t help exclaiming.
That powerful spell and intense murderous vibe were hard to approach even for her, and she was at the peak of the Cultivation Stage in the Infant Transformation Stage. If she got slightly closer to the spell, she would be squashed by it and turned into ashes in a moment. To her surprise, Xu Que merely dashed across, tore up the spell easily, and barged through it. He was absolutely formidable!
Thud! Thud!
At the same time, there was a series of rumbling sounds resonating from the Celestial Spell Array. The whole Celestial Spell Array was shaking, blooming in brilliant brilliance with wind and lightning radiating in between. The sound alone had already struck Zhang Suyue and caused indistinct pain in her chest. She was gasping with astonishment. She was glad that Xu Que had left her here. If she had been any closer, she might have been hurt by that thunderous sound!
“He’s indeed the Faction Leader. This Celestial Spell Array, I’m afraid only the Faction Leader…” Zhang Suyue was flabbergasted. She was murmuring in praise of Xu Que’s strength. But before her words ended, there was a sudden loud rumbling sound from the Celestial Spell Array, followed by another crack in the protection screen, and a flesh-and-blood blurred figure dashed out of it.
“D*mn it! How can this spell be more powerful than the Heavenly Tribulations?” That figure was swearing as he ran, stepping on his Firestorm Wheels as he flashed past.
Zhang Suyue stared with eyes opened wide; that was obviously Xu Que’s voice!
“Faction Leader!” She immediately stood up and yelled.
“Stop talking, lower your head, and hide!” In the blink of an eye, Xu Que had rushed back on his Firestorm Wheels. He was bleeding all over his body, and his entire black robe was torn apart; the numerous wounds on his body were completely gruesome!
Almost at the same time, the spell made another huge roar, and several cracks appeared at once, and a few figures dashed out! Among them, those who ran in the front were one man and one dog! Behind them were several grim-faced Immortal Cultivators.The Immortal Cultivators were chasing and killing those in front with their Magic Art. The man and the dog ran frantically and were das.h.i.+ng toward Xu Que’s direction. They were cursing and swearing relentlessly!
“Urgh, d*mn it! Dude, are you crazy! Your Holiness was almost successful. Why are you here to mess us up?”
“D*mn, I’ve been hiding here for over a year, and now it’s all destroyed by you two. Son of a b*tch!”
“D*mn it! Duan Jiude, why are you scolding Your Holiness! What has this got to do with me?”
“D*mn it! If not for the two of you, I would have already dug my way in!”
“Dug? That was Your Holiness’s underground tunnel from previous years!”
“What nonsense! It doesn’t have your name carved on it. You’ve got no proof!”
One man and one dog cursing and swearing and scolding and blaming each other.
Zhang Suyue’s eyes and mouth were open in shock. She was startled and utterly dumbfounded.
Xu Que!
Duan Jiude!
b.u.t.tface!
The combination of Que, De, and Dog was famous in those years when The Four Great Continents were reunited!
Hiss! Thinking of that, Zhang Suyue couldn’t help but gasp in shock!
G.o.d, something big was going to happen!
She guessed she had to mourn for the Immortal Cultivators in advance!
