Chapter 617: Something Wrong
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Bang!
The Heavenly Thunder Seal flew heavily toward the cultivators buried in the black fire.
The next minute, the Heavenly Thunder Seal burst and changed into countless silver bolts of lightning.
The entire sea of black fire immediately turned into a pond of silver lightning.
Hundreds of thousands of cultivators were burned to ashes…
In the distance, the Utopia Faction watched, all the members stunned.
A young man of the Utopia Faction was so shocked that his feet could no longer support his body and he collapsed to the ground.
The few Elder’s faces all turned pale and their hands kept shaking.
They were very glad that they had listened to Liu Jingning’s words and did not go over there.
This young man is really a cruel man! He just killed so many cultivators without even flinching.
“We . . . the Utopia Faction should never make ourselves an enemy of that young man!” an old man of the Utopia Faction said.
The Utopia Faction had always been proud of their evil characteristics, but now they felt extremely overshadowed compared to Xu Que’s mercilessness.
Liu Jingning was also shocked. She had always been regarded as an evil and cruel woman by other cultivators. She had never expected Xu Que could be this ruthless—even more ruthless than her!
Not very far from the Celestial Burial Valley, there stood another group of stunned cultivators. Most of them were from the Heaven Secret Pavilion.
After seeing what had happened just now, they were all speechless.
“That young man is really at the Infant Transformation Stage?! He has killed almost ten thousand people and without even blinking…”
“I’m afraid it’s not the first time he has done such a thing…”
“We were all wrong. Compared to Jiang Hongyan, he is a much tougher figure.”
“If not for the Holy Virgin Han Ying, we would be dead by now…” a young man from the Heaven Secret Pavilion said.
Right at this moment, Han Ying looked extremely worried.
Earlier, when everyone was das.h.i.+ng toward the Celestial Burial Valley, she had suddenly experienced a strong sense that something bad would happen soon.
Thus, she immediately stopped her peers from entering the Celestial Burial Valley. She had felt that once they did, they would also be killed.
Even if she sensed the danger very early, she never thought the result would be this severe.
“Who on earth is he?!” Han Ying murmured, staring at Xu Que who was floating in the air. “I can’t see his past nor his future . . . ”
…
Ding! “Congratulations on the host getting 430 Acting Tough Points for successfully acting tough!”
Ding! “Congratulations on the host getting 460 Acting Tough Points for successfully acting tough!”
…
Ding! “Congratulations on the host getting 200,000 Experience Points for successfully killing a cultivator of the Original Infant Stage!”
Ding! “Congratulations on the host getting 200,000 Experience Points for successfully killing a cultivator of the Original Infant Stage!”
Ding! “Congratulations on the host getting 1,000,000 Experience Points for successfully killing a cultivator of the Infant Transformation Stage!”
Ding! “Congratulations on the host getting 2,000,000 Experience Points for successfully killing a cultivator in the high level of the Infant Transformation Stage!”
Ding! “Congratulations on the host getting 2,000,000 Experience Points for successfully killing a cultivator in the high level of the Infant Transformation Stage!”
Ding! “Congratulations on the host getting 8,000,000 Experience Points for successfully killing a cultivator of the Void Training Stage!”
…
The sound of notification of the System kept ringing…
Ding! “Congratulations on the host successfully entering a higher level! You are now in the fifth level of the Infant Transformation Stage!”
Ding! “Congratulations on the host successfully entering a higher level! You are now in the sixth level of the Infant Transformation Stage!”
Ding! “Congratulations on the host successfully entering a higher level! You are now in the seventh level of the Infant Transformation Stage!”
Ding! “Congratulations on the host successfully entering a higher level! You are now in the eighth level of the Infant Transformation Stage!”
Ding! “Congratulations on the host successfully entering a higher level! You are now in the ninth level of the Infant Transformation Stage!”
…
In just a few seconds, Xu Que had entered the ninth level of the Infant Transformation Stage . . . now, he was only a step away from completing the cultivation of the Infant Transformation Stage.
There were only a few months between him and getting into the Infant Transformation Stage.
For others, to get into a higher level, they would have to absorb enough Spiritual Qi and learn a certain amount of inscriptions. While for Xu Que, he only needed to kill a certain amount of cultivators with the help of the System.
“I only advance five levels after killing this amount of people?!”
Xu Que frowned, unsatisfied with the achievement he had made.
In the past, he had managed to advance five levels after killing a few hundred cultivators; this time, after he had killed thousands of cultivators at both the Original Infant Stage and the Infant Transformation Stage, he had only advanced five levels.
This is not what I had expected. I can see that it takes about tens of millions of Experience Points to go one level higher when it comes to the Infant Transformation Stage. If I want to step into the tenth level of the Infant Transformation Stage, I’ll need another ninety million Experience Points, which means I’ll have to kill forty-five cultivators of the Infant Transformation Stage.
To reach the Void Training Stage, I’ll have to kill hundreds of cultivators at the Infant Transformation Stage to get one level up.
The number will just keep growing and growing, and by the time I get to the Form Synthesis Stage . . . will there even be enough cultivators here in the Eastern Continent?
Thinking of this, Xu Que murmured. “That doesn’t seem feasible . . . ”
What if I kill all the cultivators and beasts in the continent and still can’t reach the highest level? Others can do so through cultivation, but for me, this won’t work . . . do I need to cultivate some cultivators and kill them later?
Xu Que shook his head. “c.r.a.p! My future seems rather bleak now!”
Ding! “Congratulations on the host getting a ‘mysterious parcel’ for successfully killing a cultivator of the Void Training Stage for the very first time!”
A mysterious parcel?!
Hearing this, he suddenly recalled that when he killed a cultivator of the Original Infant Stage and a cultivator of the Infant Transformation Stage, he also got such a parcel.
Xu Que became very happy and stopped worrying about the future.
“I wonder what’s inside this time! I hope there’s a beautiful maiden inside!”
Xu Que was very excited. However, when he was about to open it, he heard an explosion.
Bang!
The fire on the ground was out . . .
Xu Que noticed a few hundred injured figures still alive, some half-kneeling on the ground, some barely standing.
“Holy sh*t! They’re still alive!” Xu Que was stunned. “That’s impossible!”
Although the cultivators of the highest level of the Void Training Stage are very powerful, with my fully cultivated Heavenly Thunder Seal and other inscriptions, they should have all been killed.
Thinking of this, Xu Que quickly checked the System and found that he had indeed killed a cultivator of the Void Training Stage, but he was just in the first level.
“Can it be possible that my gesture was not right?”
Xu Que was confused and looked at all the strong cultivators of the Void Training Stage with surprise.
Dong Genji, who was bleeding, stared coldly at Xu Que.
“From now on, you are an enemy of the entire Carefree Building!”
The leader of the Jiang Family half-kneeled on the ground and shouted, “You b*stard! You’ll see!”
“The entire Gong Family won’t let you get away with this!”
“The Bai Family will make sure that you die a horrific death!”
…
Hearing this, Xu Que was not afraid at all.
He raised his hand again to make another Heavenly Thunder Seal and hit those on the ground.
Bang!
Countless silver bolts of lightning appeared.
The cultivators of the Void Training Stage screamed.
But when the power of the lightning faded, Xu Que found that they were still alive . . .
“This is impossible!” he exclaimed, making another three-color fire lotus and throwing it at them.
Then he summoned his Dark Heavy Buster Sword and hit Dong Genji’s genitals.
“Ahh!” Dong Genji screamed in great pain.
Still, all the cultivators of the Void Training Stage remained alive.
Xu Que realized that there must be something wrong with himself. He put his hands behind his back and contemplated.
“Sorry! I think we all know each other very well now, so we shall be friends from now on. By the way, can you tell me how you guys are still alive?!”
