Instantly, everyone in the area fixed their eyes on b.u.t.tface.
And Xu Que also asked in surprise, “Have you been to this place before? Have you been to this paradise before?”
“No, I would tell you if I had!” b.u.t.tface said embarra.s.sedly. Then, he turned to the dark pa.s.sage in front of him and said to Xu Que, “I remember I used to come here as the Kylin Patriarch all those many years ago!”
“The Kylin Patriarch? Holy c.r.a.p! It would be the era when Zhang Tiandao lived!” Xu Que frowned, for he doubted the s.p.a.ce Breaking Spell could have been used by b.u.t.tface in his past life.
“No, my era would be much earlier than his. This place is not a killing spell, but the territory of a mysterious tribe!” b.u.t.tface said seriously.
Xu Que was surprised, “Really? This is a dramatic change. This place has been changed to the territory of a mysterious tribe from a killing spell. Does it mean what Zhang Tiandao wrote on that hide is wrong?”
“No! After all, in those years, only a few people knew this besides me, a wise and majestic cultivator! Zhang Tiandao would also have been puzzled by it!” b.u.t.tface replied with a proud smile.
“b.u.t.tface, before I beat you up, you’d better tell me everything you know about it!” Xu Que said angrily.
“d.a.m.n! Little brat, do you think you can scare me? How dare you threaten me? Humph! OK, I’ll tell you!” b.u.t.tface, whose courage only lasted for one second, started to narrate when he saw Xu Que raise his hand.
“An ancient and mysterious tribe, whose name was the Heavenly Human, was living in this place. People in this tribe were born with a pair of white feather wings. In theory, they would be the hybrid of humans and demonic beasts. However, their bloodline originates from the earliest hybrids of humans and demonic beasts in ancient times. In this tribe, all men are handsome, while all women are gorgeous. They think highly of themselves. Therefore, they name themselves the Heavenly Human!”
“Nonsense! Don’t try to fool me! They sound like angels!” Xu Que couldn’t help but say.
People with white feather wings should definitely be called angels!
“Angels? Holy c.r.a.p! Little brat, they are the arrogant Heavenly Humans, not angels! Anyway, you can call them whatever you like, I don’t want to go inside!” b.u.t.tface said, as he was about to run away.
“Do you want to escape?” Xu Que, who had antic.i.p.ated b.u.t.tface’s plan, grabbed b.u.t.tface instantly. Then, he sat on b.u.t.tface’s body.
Howl! b.u.t.tface let out his symbolic shriek. “Let me go! Little brat, what are you going to do?”
This scene shocked the rest of the people in this area, whose eyes opened wide.
What is he going to do?
It is a dog! You can’t do that!
Bang!
Xu Que slapped b.u.t.tface’s forehead and said, widening his eyes, “Behave yourself! Leniency to those who confess, while severity to those who resist! Tell me everything you know about this, or you’ll be in my bowl later!”
“d.a.m.n!” b.u.t.tface had to give up after realizing that he couldn’t escape. So, he had to start his confession: “I’ve told you this is the territory of the Heavenly Humans! They are proud and arrogant. Only those who have pa.s.sed their trial could enter their territory! Therefore, the trial has started from this pa.s.sage, which is full of all kinds of weird restrictive spells. It is extremely difficult for normal cultivators to come out alive!”
“Wait! A trial? In this way, what Zhang Tiandao wrote in that hide could be true, right?” Xu Que realized the truth immediately.
If all of this belonged to the trial, it could explain those weird spell rules. If two people entered the spell, they would get only two options – they could reach the end together, or one of them could come out unscratched by betraying the other one!
Zhang Tiandao entered the spell together with that woman. Then, the woman ran away and he was trapped in the spell.
“How could I know whether it is true or false? I entered this area and walked around casually all those years ago. When I found it was not the end of the Road of Heavenly Ascension, I left directly!” b.u.t.tface replied. He could still remember these things.
Xu Que nodded and asked after a short while pondering, “How powerful if this Heavenly Human Tribe? Do they have cultivators who have reached the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage, or…even the Celestial Realm?”
“It is impossible for them to have cultivators who have reached the Celestial Realm or they would have eradicated the entire Xuanzhen Continent instead of hiding in this place! However, I guess it is highly possible for them to have cultivators who have reached the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage!” b.u.t.tface said.
Hearing that, Xu Que smiled.
They don’t have cultivators who have reached the Celestial Realm, right?
If they are so weak, how could they act tough by arranging a trial?
Humph! The Act-Tough Saint will enter their territory to search for the s.p.a.ce Breaking Spell. If they dare to make trouble for me, I will definitely teach them a lesson concerning how to build this World of cultivators!
At the thought of this, Xu Que’s eyes lit up as if a lot of Acting Tough Points were placed in front of him! Normally, he didn’t want to make trouble in a place like this. However,now he had no choice. Zhang Tiandao was still in the trial arranged by the Heavenly Human Tribe. And it was highly possible that the s.p.a.ce Breaking Spell was also in there. Therefore, he had to enter this area at this time!
“b.u.t.tface, hurry up, you should follow me to enter this area!” Xu Que said, patting b.u.t.tface’s head.
“Holy c.r.a.p! Are you insane? I guess they really have cultivators at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage!” b.u.t.tface shouted immediately. b.u.t.tface’s voice startled the rest of the cultivators.
“Cultivators at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage?”
“Are there cultivators at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage in this area? You gotta be kidding me!”
“This is impossible! How could cultivators at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage enter the Road of Heavenly Ascension?” Several powerhouses of the Imperial Palace asked.
b.u.t.tface couldn’t help but sneer, “You are too ignorant! This is the abode of the Heavenly Humans. It is a separate world which has been rooted in this area for over 10,000 years. There are certainly going to be cultivators at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage in this area!”
“The Heavenly Human Tribe?” the rest of the people were puzzled after hearing that. Apparently, they had never heard of this name before!
Xu Que shook his head, “I don’t have time to explain this. I suggest you’d better leave now, for the end of the Road of Heavenly Ascension is not here!”
After saying that, he turned to Jiang Hongyan. Jiang Hongyan nodded her head with a faint smile as she walked up to Xu Que.
The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace were surprised, “Holy Senior, are…you also going to enter this area?”
“Yes!” Jiang Hongyan replied gently as she stood beside Xu Que.
The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace were quite perplexed. Normally, no matter how dangerous it would be, they would go through fire and water together with their Holy Senior. However, when they knew they might encounter cultivators at the summit of the Great Vehicle Stage in this area, they didn’t know whether they should go or not.
“Let’s go, b.u.t.tface! Don’t try to escape! This time you can’t get away from me!” Xu Que said with a smile as he grabbed b.u.t.tface who was about to run away sneakily. Then, he walked forward, holding Jiang Hongyan’s hand.
Whoos.h.!.+
A white light, which was like a barrier, appeared in the cave abruptly. When Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan stepped forward, they disappeared together with b.u.t.tface instantly.
After that, the white light disappeared. The cave became pitch-dark again.
The powerhouses of the Imperial Palace, the cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion, and the disbanded cultivators looked at each other in blank dismay.
“Anyway, it would be very difficult for us to survive outside this cave. Let’s just go insideand follow the Holy Senior!” A powerhouse of the Imperial Palace said as he looked at those who were behind them. Then, he turned around and walked toward the place where Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan had disappeared just now.
The rest of the people were stunned a bit by his actions. Then, they said nothing and also followed him. They knew clearly that too many people had witnessed their killing of Wei Zixun. It was too difficult to hush all of them outside this place. There were only several powerhouses of the Imperial Palace left. They couldn’t kill all the rest of the cultivators to prevent the divulgence of their secret.
Therefore, instead of being in a state of anxiety outside this cave, they preferred to enter by following their Holy Senior. Maybe they could also find fortune or opportunities inside!
“What should we do? Will we also go inside?”
“The Heavenly Human Tribe which has existed for over 10,000 years…maybe it deserves an exploration!”
After a short hesitation, the female cultivators of the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion made up their minds to enter and find fortune or opportunity at last.
“Retreat!”
The rest of the disbanded cultivators and the Demonic Beasts turned around and retreated without hesitation.
They would rather leave directly when the risks outweighed the fortune or opportunity, which might not even exist!
