Whoos.h.!.+
A strand of light appeared in front of Xu Que. Suddenly, he could see
glistening equipment in the System store.
Xu Que smiled. Now, the defensive Inferior Celestial Artifacts on his body
were almost useless. After all, even the Inferior Celestial Artifacts couldn’t
keep intact under great pressure for a long time. However, the equipment in
the System store was different. Magic Resistance Equipment would be very
efficient now. Also, the equipment in the store was quite cheap. As long as he
could enhance his ability to resist magic, he could keep moving forward on
this path.
Just like crossing his Heavenly Tribulations, he used some equipment to
protect himself from being wounded by the thunder when his physique was
not strong enough.
“What? Young man, why do you stop? Don"t tell me you have reached your
limit! Holy sh*t! Try harder! Come closer, so that we can chat conveniently!”
The dry corpse, who noticed Xu Que had stopped moving forward, couldn"t
help but shout at this time.
Xu Que ignored him, for he was fixing his eyes on the equipment in the
System store. When the System was upgraded to Version 10.0, many items in
the store were updated. He could find almost all the equipment which
appeared in the web fiction and games here. Now, he tried to find equipment
with high magic resistance and low prices. When he saw some equipment
from several games, he couldn"t help but smile.
Then, in front of the shocked eyes of the dry corpse, Xu Que waved his hand
to take out a small stick from his crotch. The small stick was the Abyssal
Scepter from the League of Legends, which could increase the damage of
magic arts and the magic resistance of the pressure. Then he put on the
Negative Cloak, the Spirit Visage, and the Mercury’s Treads. Finally, he also
put on the Eye of Phoenix and the Banshee"s Veil.
The Eye of Phoenix could also increase the replenishment of blood, which
was quite suitable for the current situation.
After putting on the six pieces of equipment that he had gotten from the
System, Xu Que felt relaxed immediately. Now the pressure, which used to be
so heavy, was indiscernible!
He had only spent less than 10,000 Acting Tough Points to purchase all this,
which was very cheap!
“Hah, hah, hah, I am fully recovered! Now let me walk to the end once and for
all!” Xu Que roared in high spirits.
The dry corpse was shocked by Xu Que’s yelling. A strand of light appeared
in his hollow eyes. Then he asked in surprise, “What are you doing?”
“I am using a trainer!” Xu Que said proudly as he stepped forward.
Flop!
Flop!
Flop!
He walked five steps without stopping, and his body was still intact!
The dry corpse was dumbfounded. His dry jaw almost fell to the ground. “My
G.o.d! How…could this be? How did you do that?” he asked in surprise.
Xu Que said with a wicked smile, “The Exploding Heavens Faction is
omnipotent!”
“The Exploding Heavens Faction?” the dry corpse asked with puzzlement. It
seemed he had never heard of such a sect.
Bang!
At the same time, a dull sound came from Xu Que’s body. The Abyssal
Scepter and the Mercury’s Treads exploded at the same time. Horrible
pressure gushed in immediately. Xu Que changed his expression as he
purchased another three Eyes of Phoenix from the System store.
In the peripheral area, the equipment could resist the pressure. However,
several cheap equipments had been crushed by the pressure. Xu Que had to
replace all of them with the Eye of Phoenix, so that he could enhance his
magic resistance and the speed of blood replenishment. In front of the
shocked eyes of the dry corpse, Xu Que put several ornaments which were
like eyes on his body. Then he walked another six steps casually and stopped
in front of the dry corpse directly.
“This…” The jaw of the dry corpse, who was totally dumbfounded, had fallen
to the ground.
When he reached this position, he had run out of his pills and elixirs. Then he
spent seven days and seven nights to heal his wounds. Now, this young man
who had just reached the Human Celestial Stage arrived at his position within
one hour! This path would become more and more difficult for the others who
trod on it. This guy just went faster and faster on it, and he didn’t stop to take
a break, which was totally unbelievable!
But the dry corpse knew those strange ornaments and green armor were the
key factors for Xu Que to realize such a big progress. He was totally puzzled
by Xu Que’s appearance.
Xu Que’s body was still intact and full of energy. And it had no sign of being
dried up at all. He was still a handsome cultivator!
“Holy sh*t! What the h.e.l.l did you do?” The dry corpse couldn’t help but shout
excitedly. His reaction was quite normal. After all, n.o.body had realized such
progress without drying up his body. It was just so enviable.
“Heh, heh, I"ve told you I am using a trainer!” Xu Que said with a wicked smile.
After checking the integrity of the equipment on his body, he continued to
move forward.
“Use a trainer? What do you mean?” The dry corpse asked with puzzlement.
“I am cheating!” Xu Que said as he walked several steps.
“How could you…cheat here?” The dry corpse was totally confused. This
divine place was set up by the G.o.d of h.e.l.l. How could someone cheat here?
Bang!
At the same time, Xu Que’s Spirit Visage and Banshee"s Veil were crushed
again. Without any hesitation, Xu Que replaced them with a Witch’s Cloak and
a new Spirit Visage. Instantly, his magic resistance was enhanced again. But
he had reached his limit.
He was quite serious now, for he was not able to enhance his magic
resistance anymore. From now on, he had to spend a lot of Acting Tough
Points to resist the pressure.
Whoos.h.!.+
One step, two steps, three steps…
Xu Que walked forward rapidly. Now, the corpses beside the path had
become skeletons.
But he had only covered two-thirds of his path.
Bang!
Suddenly, the four Eye of Phoenixes on his body exploded at the same time.
When the pressure gushed toward him, he put on new equipment to maintain
his magic resistance. Then he walked another step forward.
Bang!
This time, the Witch’s Cloak and the Spirit Visage exploded. Four Eye of
Phoenixes cracked. Xu Que replaced them with new equipment without any
hesitation. Then he moved forward again.
Now, whenever he stepped out, his equipment would explode. At last, six
equipments would explode at the same time. Xu Que had to replace them
with new equipment again and again, which meant a lot of Acting Tough
Points had been consumed.
The price for six equipments was over 10,000 Acting Tough Points. So he had
to spend over 10,000 Acting Tough Points for each step.
His Acting Tough Points were being consumed rapidly as he moved forward.
But the result was always worth the effort! After moving forward for more than
ten steps, he had covered four-fifths of this path eventually. The end was just
in front of him.
Phew!
Xu Que let out a sigh and smiled with difficulty, “Finally…I am almost there!”
