Chapter 1360: This Is Probably an Opportunity

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Xu Que had never considered Xuanyuan Wanrong a hidden danger, and he had felt he could act fearlessly because of her.

These two people's fates were linked by the Heavenly Book of Taiyi, and they depended on each other for survival. It could even be said that they had a stable relationship where they shared both life and death. This was why Xu Que was at ease. He was aware that even if Xuanyuan Wanrong came into the world again, she wouldn't dare to harm him, and she would even protect him.

But now, he discovered that he had overlooked a certain matter. If Xuanyuan Wanrong died, he wouldn't escape death either.

Moreover, it seemed as if this situation had already occurred.

Xu Que was aware that he hadn't run into any deadly poison or anything similar, yet his life span had unexpectedly seemed to shrink in an inexplicable way and was even manifested in his body. His remaining life span was just 40 days!

The result of the System's inspection stated that he had been affected by a certain artifact, and that he had lost his life span due to the influence of the Heaven Way's laws

This meant that Xuanyuan Wanrong currently faced great danger and was on the brink of death. This was why he had been implicated.

"Even myriad thorough and careful plans can't escape the shackles of destiny," Xu Que clenched his fists and teeth before he spoke out of resentment.

If it had been another danger, then even if he had a narrow chance for survival or not even a single chance, he would have still accepted it. Even if the two souls of Guan Chuchu and Xuanyuan Qishang had killed him, he would still have accepted it.

But now, he had been implicated by someone else and would have to share both death and life due to their destiny. He couldn't accept this!

"I have worked so hard, yet in the end, I will die because of a useless comrade? Who could accept this matter?"

"Lad, what happened?" Buttface, Liu Jingning, and the others were also concerned about Xu Que, and they questioned him quickly.

"It is major," Xu Que shook his head and wore a grave look.

He informed them about the Heavenly Book of Taiyi, as well as his relationship with Xuanyuan Wanrong.

Buttface and Duan Jiude and the others were dumbfounded.

This outcome was really unimaginable!

"It turns out that…the death in 49 days referred to this matter," Duan Jiude smiled bitterly.

"Don't panic! You still have 40 days, and we can go back to the Four Great Continents in time to deal with this matter," Buttface shouted.

"If everything is like what you have said, then even if we go to the Four Great Continents, it won't be of any use," Mo Junchen, who also wore a grave look, spoke. "Since even Xuanyuan Wanrong can't deal with this crisis, then will we be able to deal with it?"

As those words echoed out, Buttface and Duan Jiude descended into silence.

Mo Junchen's statement was quite reasonable. In the past, they had all seen Xuanyuan Wanrong's great power, and, even though that woman was stranded, she still possessed great power. She wasn't able to meddle in matters occurring outside the Celestial Burial Valley, but, if one entered the Celestial Burial Valley, then no one could contend against her.

At the very least, the power Xuanyuan Wanrong revealed in the Celestial Burial Valley surpassed a Celestial King.

But now, she couldn't even protect herself, and it was obvious that she had run into a powerful being. The power of the people in their group was insignificant, and, even if they went to the Four Great Continents, they probably wouldn't be of any help.

"Guardian Mo, am I really unable to erase my name from the Heavenly Book of Taiyi?" Xu Que looked at Mo Junchen and questioned him.

Mo Junchen knew some rumors about the Heavenly Book of Taiyi, and that was why he was afraid to tell him. He didn't even dare to mention it.

"It's really unerasable! At the very least, I have never heard about anyone who managed to achieve it throughout the ages," Mo Junchen wore a bitter look and shook his head.

"F*ck! This is too unreasonable. At that time, that crazy woman wrote my name there without my consent, so why did it approve it?" Xu Que opened his eyes wide. He felt quite unwell!

Mo Junchen chuckled bitterly again, "This is the authority of the Heaven's Chosen. They are able to decide whoever they want to walk down Heavenly Selection's Road. It's Heaven that gives birth to all beings, and it's the greatest existence."

"What d*mned great heaven. We are the Exploding Heavens Faction, and I don't believe that I can't break free of the restraints of the Heavenly Book of Taiyi," Xu Que was high-spirited. He waved his hand and summoned the System.

"System, is there any way to get rid of the Heavenly Book of Taiyi?" He could only place his last hope on the System.

The System quieted for a moment before it replied, "After inspection, it was determined that the System isn't able to offer this function currently. Host, please promote the System's grade to Version 12.0."

"He, he!" Xu Que was so infuriated that he laughed.

"Now, I haven't even gathered enough Acting Tough Points to promote it to Version 11.0, yet you want me to promote it to Version 12.0? Are you making fun of me?"

"Brother Que, why are you standing in a daze? What happened? Do you have a way to break free of the restraints of the Heavenly Book of Taiyi?" Buttface looked at Xu Que and questioned him.

"I don't have one," Xu Que provided a blunt reply.

"Even the System doesn't have a solution. So how I can come up with a solution?"

"Let's go back to the Four Great Continents to take a look there. If we bring the two souls with us, we could probably have a chance," Liu Jingning suggested.

If Xu Que couldn't break free of the restraints of the Heavenly Book of Taiyi, then the sole way for him to survive was by saving Xuanyuan Wanrong.

"We can only try it, but we must prepare some Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines first." Xu Que nodded helplessly.

If Xuanyuan Wanrong had really run into a powerful being, then their main fighting power would be Xuanyuan Qishang and Guan Chuchu. This was why they must quickly gather a large number of Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines.

"That said, it doesn't seem that this region is vast. Where did those few people run?" Duan Jiude looked at the fog in the vicinity before he frowned and spoke.

Xu Que also raised his head and surveyed the surroundings. When they had just entered, he was the sole person who had fallen into an illusion. At that time, Buttface stated in the illusion that he smelled fresh blood, and they had assumed that Yi Fang and his few companions had died because of that.

But now, he had already left the illusion and that scene wasn't real. Yi Fang and his few companions didn't die.

"This fog is quite strange. It doesn't just block our line of sight. It can also obstruct our Soul Detection. It's fortunate that my nose is quite sharp, so it wouldn't be difficult for me to find them," Buttface twitched his nose and spoke confidently.

Xu Que spread out his arms. "Buttface, you must stay on the surface. If no one is left to open the entrance, we won't be able to get out."

He found those words quite familiar, and it was because he had said them once in the illusion. Now, he made a long story short and stated them again.

Upon hearing this, Buttface became wild with joy, and he patted his chest before he stated that he would take this heavy responsibility. He flew toward the entrance with delight.

As a matter of fact, he preferred abstaining from doing risky matters that didn't bring him any benefits.

After Buttface went up, the group moved on and proceeded toward the white fog.

This Mystery Land wasn't big, and even though it couldn't be seen completely with a single glance, it still seemed that its scope was limited to the inside of the giant mountain that had been hollowed out. It could be considered a great mountain cave, and finding Yi Fang and his companions wouldn't be difficult. They just had to walk around in a circle, and they would surely find them.

There were several people standing on the other side of the thick fog, and they wore startled looks, while some of them frowned. They had seen the actions of Xu Que's group.

If Xu Que walked through the white fog and turned around to take a look, he would be surely shocked.

This white fog was a one-sided cover, and if one looked through it from one side, his line of sight would be limited. But, if he crossed the fog and looked at it from the other side, he would see everything with a glance, and he wouldn't even see the white fog any longer.

This was like a one-way glass. It seemed like an ordinary mirror, but if one observed it from the other side, one would discover that it was transparent. This was the same for the current white fog. It was a pity that it was Yi Fang and his few companions who stood on the transparent side.

This was why they had managed to detect Xu Que and his companions when they entered the white fog.

"What is going on? How did they get here?" Yi Fang frowned. He had recognized Xu Que.

After all, the fame of Xu Que's father had been so great during the last period. At first, the Heavenly Palace Academy had issued an arrest warrant for him and spread his portraits to all the Great Celestial Realms. Soon after, he became the Heavenly Palace Academy's Deputy Dean, and then he declared war against the three big families and killed the Heavenly Palace Academy's great deacon. News about those shocking feats had spread out and everyone had heard about him.

Moreover, he still had some conflicts with the Divine Farmer Clan, and they had classified him as an important person. They were always on guard against him.

"Since he has appeared here, doesn't this mean that the two elders are already…" Someone recalled the two Taiyi Celestials on the surface in charge of guarding, and his expression changed drastically.

Since Xu Que's father had come down, it was obvious that the two elders were likely dead.

"Hold on, this is probably an opportunity," Yi Fang said, as his eyes suddenly lit up. He looked at the cold and elegant woman, and he sneered and said, "Little sister, you know what to do, don't you?"

He emphasized the word do…

Chapter 1361: Young Lady, Are You Okay?

In the dense, milky fog, Xu Que and his teammates walked forward slowly.

The fog blocked their view and the detection of their Soul Strength. Therefore, all of them became more and more vigilant.

Besides the possible unknown dangers in this Mystery Land, they had to take precautions against the guardians of the Divine Farmer Clan. After all, those guardians were at the summit of the Golden Celestial Stage and were extremely dangerous.

However, they didn't encounter any dangers. After they had passed through half of the fog, Xu Que frowned slightly.

"Interesting! I have a feeling that we are being watched by someone!" Xu Que said in surprise.

This feeling was not very obvious at the very beginning. However, as they went deeper into this place, it became stronger. He felt as if they were being watched by someone secretly.

"Hey! I also have this feeling!" Duan Jiude said, because he was surprised by Xu Que's words.

They stopped immediately. Liu Jingning and Mo Junchen said at the same time, "We have got company here!"

Although they didn't sense or see the people who were looking at them, as cultivators, they had a stronger perception about possible dangers than ordinary people. At this moment, all of them got this feeling, which meant it was not a coincidence!

Their instinct told them that there was more than one person who were in front of them.

"Hmm! It seems we have been spotted!" Xu Que squinted his eyes and said in a low voice.

Although they didn't know how far away those people were, it was unnecessary for them to worry. Xu Que believed those people were not fools. Since they had found Xu Que and his teammates, they should have realized that the two Taiyi Celestials had already been killed.

So, it was highly possible that a fierce fight was waiting for them!

"D*mn! If I had known this before, I would have gone with Buttface," Duan Jiude said regretfully. The feeling that they were being watched by unknown enemies felt so terrible.

"Don't worry! We still have two big shots with us," Xu Que said with a calm smile.

"Bullsh*t! Are you sure they won't disappear forever after being released? I think the possibility is very high. I'm afraid they could only last for several seconds in the outside world," Duan Jiude said as he shook his head.

When Xu Que had released the two souls to kill the two Taiyi Celestials, the fight had only lasted for a very short time and only caused a small consumption to the energy of the two souls. However, the two souls had almost completely dissipated by now, and Xu Que didn't have anymore Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines to help them recover.

If he released the two souls again, he would have to take them back within two seconds. Otherwise, the two souls would definitely disappear forever. And it would be too late even if Xu Que could find a lot of Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines at that time.

"Don't worry! The biggest advantage we have now is deterrence. They won't dare to attack us easily. In other words, they should be more worried than we are," Xu Que said confidently. He didn't believe the people of the Divine Farmer Clan dared to attack them after the death of the two Taiyi Celestials!

"Right! What you have said is reasonable. We should be able to outwit them in this fight. And I am d*mn good at it," Duan Jiude's eyes lit up as he said this.

"Maybe their plan is also to outwit us. I'm afraid they are going to use their honey trap," Xu Que said with a smile.

Mo Junchen was embarrassed by their words. How could you say you are going to outwit them? Apparently, you are going to fool them shamelessly.

Just at this time, they saw a well-proportioned figure in the white fog when they had just finished speaking.

It was a gorgeous woman in green clothes. She was half-kneeling on the ground and covering her chest with her hand. Blood could be seen on her lips, and her face was pale. It seemed as if she had been seriously wounded because her breathing was rough.

Xu Que and Duan Jiude shouted at the same time, "Young lady, are you okay?"

Then the two of them rushed over at the same time.

Yi Xin'er was surprised at this moment. She had planned to act as a poor girl who had been betrayed and wounded by her clan members. Then she would take this opportunity to get close to Xu Que's father.

However, two old men were rushing toward her at the same time. Luckily, she had seen the portrait of Xu Que's father before. Otherwise, she would have been puzzled and wouldn't have known which one was her target.

COUGH! COUGH! She spat out the blood in her throat. Her gorgeous face became even paler, which made her seem even more pitiful.

Her wound was real. Yi Fang had told her that Xu Que's father was not an ordinary cultivator. So she had to be fully prepared. Before leaving for this place, he had asked someone to attack Yi Xin'er.

Yi Xin'er spat out the blood in her throat again so that her wound would look more real and serious.

When Xu Que and Duan Jiude stopped in front of her, she pretended she was surprised. Then she asked gently, "This is the Divine Farmer Clan's Forbidden Place. How did you enter this place?"

"Eh, we are passers-by. Young lady, don't dwell on these details. Your wound is quite serious. Just take this pill that was refined by me. I am sure it will cure your wounds immediately," Duan Jiude said as he helped Yi Xin'er to stand up. Then he gave Yi Xin'er a dirty and stinky pill.

Yi Xin'er was surprised by that pill. She was from the Divine Farmer Clan and was good at refining pills. Although she couldn't tell whether this pill was poisonous, she was sure the effect of this pill would be very poor. In other words, this was just a low-level pill that had been kept for a long time. It would probably be an ineffective expired pill.

Actually, her speculation was right. This pill had been refined by Duan Jiude when he was still at the Void Training Stage. Now, this pill was totally useless. Nobody would want it even if he decided to give it to others for free.

"Thank you for your kindness, senior! I have pills to heal my wounds!" Yi Xin'er refused Duan Jiude as she took out a pill bottle from her storage ring.

When she took her pills, she raised her head and her dress slipped down off her shoulders accidentally on purpose. Then her beautiful shoulders could be seen.

Yi Xin'er glanced at Xu Que with her pretty eyes which were full of mischief.

Xu Que and Duan Jiude's eyes got wide as they looked at her shoulders. Then, they looked sideways as they swallowed.

Seeing this, Yi Xin'er sneered in her heart disdainfully. HUMPH! Two shameless old perverts!

However, Xu Que and Duan Jiude also made eye contact secretly as they sneered in their hearts. HUMPH! Her acting skills are so poor!

At the same time, outside the white fog, the scene was being observed.

Yi Fang and his people watching started to smile at this moment.

"It seems our plan is going very well. She has not failed us. I planned to give her more training.Thanks to Heaven! We can now save a year of training," Yi Fang smiled and nodded his head in appreciation.

"Indeed! However, we are impressed by the performance of our younger sister," a young man said in surprise.

Hearing this, those who were standing beside them and several guardians also nodded their heads.

"I didn't realize she was so good at this skill."

"Right! I've seen her grow up from childhood. She was always a cold girl. I didn't expect she could be so coquettish! What a surprise!"

"If she can succeed this time, it will be right and proper for her to act as the Holy Virgin of our clan!"

These people were totally impressed by Yi Xin'er's performance.

Yi Fang also smiled as he looked at Yi Xin'er hopefully. The rest of the people didn't know the reason. But he knew clearly that this girl's outstanding coquettishness was the result of his secret training that had been performed for a long time. Now the girl was an expert in coquettishness and sexual practices.

He didn't feel disappointed when he decided to give this girl to others because he had gotten tired of her.

Chapter 1362: What a Cunning Woman!

"My younger sister, please don't fail your elder brother," Yi Fang smiled coldly to himself as he fixed his eyes on Xu Que and Yi Xin'er.

Yi Xin'er had stopped her wounds bleeding and had gotten some color back in her face.

Liu Jingning and Mo Junchen also walked up. Mo Junchen pretended that he knew nothing, while Liu Jingning was staring at Yi Xin'er with a frown.

She knew the plans of Yi Xin'er. Even though she was a renowned she devil in the Four Great Continents, she was still terrified by Yi Xin'er, who tried to do harm to others by hiding toxins in her body. Such a vicious method was totally unacceptable for Liu Jingning.

If Liu Jingning had not been with Xu Que, she would have been impressed by Yi Xin'er. However, Yi Xin'er's target was Xu Que. So it was quite difficult for Liu Jingning to have a favorable impression of Yi Xin'er.

However, Liu Jingning's reaction didn't arouse any suspicions from Yi Xin'er, but reassured her that Liu Jingning had a special relationship with Xu Que's father.

Women's instinct was horrible. Yi Xin'er believed that her appearance had made Liu Jingning jealous, leading her to a sense of crisis.

"Young lady, who attacked you? Tell me and I will eradicate this villain for you!" At this time, Xu Que walked up and asked with a strong sense of righteousness as he supported Yi Xin'er by placing his hand on her slender waist.

Yi Xin'er's body trembled a bit, but her expression didn't change. Then she said pitifully as she shook her head, "Senior, I came here to collect elixirs with my elder brother. I didn't expect the villains who tried to steal my elixirs would attack and seriously wound me. Then, they left me here to dangle in the wind. If I hadn't run into you, I'm afraid I would have died in this place."

After saying that, she placed her hands and her head on Xu Que's chest and started to cry pathetically.

Her sudden crying totally surprised Xu Que and his teammates.

Her crying was just too melodramatic!

Just at this moment, the ten fingernails of Yi Xin'er that were being pressed into Xu Que's chest melted. Then ten slim black wire worms started to worm into Xu Que's chest.

This was the plan b prepared by Yi Fang. The black wire worm was an extremely poisonous creature that had been fed with the Taiyin Eradication Toxins. Once these worms went into the human body, they would hide themselves in the corners of the Meridians and start to release toxins continuously. In this way, a cultivator's achievements would be ruined, while he would have no knowledge of what was going on.

Of course, this was a very long process. In order to avoid startling the victim, the toxin would take effect after several decades or even 100 years!

In order to avoid the failure of their seduction plan, they had also prepared this plan as a backup. In this way, they could get rid of Xu Que's father without fail.

"Young lady, please stop crying. Your pitiful cry really makes my heart hurt," Xu Que said as he touched the head of Yi Xin'er at this moment.

Yi Xin'er continued to cry in his arms as she sneered to herself disdainfully.

"You start to feel heartache, right? Heh! Ignorant old fart, it is because the black worms have gone into your body!

"If I didn't want to become a Holy Virgin and be with Yi Fang forever, as the mighty sovereign of the Divine Farmer Clan, I would never lean on a disgusting old fart like you!

"I don't know why Liu Jingning could like a wretched old fart like you! Only my beloved Yi Fang could win my heart!

"Today, I have to swallow humiliation. Tomorrow, I will reach the summit by stepping on your dead body!

"Sob! Senior…please help me!"

Yi Xin'er acted as coquettishly as a spoiled child.

"Sure, I will help you! But can you…Ying-Ying-Ying?" Xu Que asked with a smile.

He had lost interest in the melodramatic and coquettish performance skills of Yi Xin'er, who actually made him sick.

"What is…Ying-Ying-Ying?" Yi Xin'er was surprised by his question. Then she looked up at Xu Que with puzzlement.

At this moment, her face was so close to Xu Que's chest that Xu Que could even feel her fragrant breath on his neck.

Xu Que raised his head slightly and said by shaking his head, "This posture is pretty good! OK, you don't need to Ying-Ying-Ying. Now, tell me, how can I help you?"

Yi Xin'er still leaned on Xu Que's chest like an innocent girl.

"Please take me away from this place. If you can avenge me in future, I will serve you forever!" Yi Xin'er said in a low voice.

"What? Young lady, you can't say that! I am a married man, and my son is the same age as you. It would be a scandal if I asked you to serve me! No, this is unacceptable!" Xu Que acted as if he were greatly shocked by what he had heard.

Yi Xin'er, who was still leaning on Xu Que's chest, said, as she shed tears, "Then…I will be hopeless! I have been lonely and helpless since I was a child. Everyone bullies me. I've never encountered a man who treats me as good as you! Please take me in!"

"Alas! You really pose a difficult problem for me."

Xu Que sighed perplexedly. After a short hesitation, he said, "Is it okay that you treat me like your adopted father?"

"Great! I greet you, my adopted father! Adopted father, please help me!" Hearing this, Yi Xin'er was quite delighted and replied coquettishly.

…..

At the same time, outside the white fog, Yi Fang was smiling when he saw this scene. Now he believed victory had been placed in his hands.

"The die is cast! Although my younger sister failed to become his daughter-in-law, she has managed to become his adopted daughter, which means victory is in view! Now, it's time for us to leave here," Yi Fang said.

Hearing this, the rest of the people asked in surprise, "Leave here? What about those Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines? Will we just go back empty-handed?"

"Don't worry! I believe they will understand when we tell them everything that happened here. Moreover, the two Elders have been killed. Are you sure you can take those Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines back safely?" Yi Fang replied with a faint smile.

The guardians became speechless after hearing Yi Fang's words.

Then one of the guardians nodded his head, "What Yi Fang said is correct! If we take those Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines back now, we might be robbed on the way. Then we will definitely be punished severely in the clan! I suggest we go back before the restrictive spell is opened. Now, we have put Xin'er in the team of Xu Que's father, I am sure we will be rewarded because of this outstanding service."

"Right! That makes sense! Also, since the restrictive spell hasn't been opened yet, even if this place is exposed, no one will be able to take away the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines. Moreover, Xin'er will draw Xu Que's father and his teammates away. When we go back to the clan, we should ask our Grand Elders to move this Mystery Land."

At last, the rest of the guardians also agreed with this plan by nodding their heads.

"Come on, tell me, who attacked you just now?" Xu Que's voice could be heard from the white fog at this time.

Yi Fang and the rest of the members of the Divine Farmer Clan, who were about to leave, turned around subconsciously after hearing that.

Yi Xin'er, who was standing beside Xu Que, replied in a low voice, "Adopted father, actually, I am from the Divine Farmer Clan. I've been ill-treated in the clan for many years. My elder brothers always punch and kick me…"

"What? Wait! What did you say just now? Where are you from?" Xu Que interrupted Yi Xin'er before she could finish her words.

Yi Xin'er was shocked a bit by Xu Que's interruption. Yi Fang and the rest of the members of the Divine Farmer Clan were also surprised by what Xu Que had said.

It seems her origin is not the key point here!

"Adopted father, I am from the Divine Farmer Clan. But they have never treated me as a member of the clan. I am so…," Yi Xin'er continued at this time.

SWISH!

Before she could finish her words, Xu Que rushed up with a long sword in his hand. The next moment, his sword had penetrated the chest of Yi Xin'er.

"Humph! How dare you cheat me? The Divine Farmer Clan used to give me Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines as gifts. How could those generous guys be so cruel? I will never trust your provocations! Just die!"

After saying that, Xu Que released his magnificent Celestial Core Power through his sword to get rid of all the rest of the vital energy of Yi Xin'er.

Before the death of Yi Xin'er, her face was still full of disbelief. She couldn't figure out why this old man had killed her in this way!

Outside the white fog, Yi Fang and the rest of the members of the Divine Farmer Clan were totally shocked and dumbfounded on the spot.

"What a cunning woman!"

Xu Que sneered as he removed the clothes on the upper part of his body. Then his muscular body was revealed. Ten black wire worms, which were clamped between the gaps of his golden muscles, had already been dead for a long time.

The crooked Holy Physique on his chest was also dazzling at this time.

Chapter 1363: There Is Another Approach!

"How…could this be possible?

"Why?

"It's impossible that he could see through her!

"How could this be?"

On the other side of the white fog, Yi Fang, who was totally shocked, turned pale and started to murmur like a fool.

He couldn't believe nor accept the death of Yi Xin'er, which completely threw him for a loop. His well-thought-out plan had been ruined entirely.

Yi Xin'er had been killed by Xu Que with his sword. The ten black wire worms, prepared by Yi Fang, had failed to go into Xu Que's body but instead were squeezed to death by Xu Que's muscles.

"Could it be that…those wire worms attracted his attention?"

Suddenly, an idea occurred to Yi Fang.

If Yi Xin'er had been spotted as she released those wire worms, Xu Que's father would have had good reason to kill her. Nobody could tolerate such a dirty trick!

"Did I make an unnecessary move?" Yi Fang asked with a self-deprecating smile.

If the Divine Farmer Clan found out about this failure, Yi Fang would not only be severely punished, but also lose the ability to strive for the position of the Holy Son!

He had managed to obtain the Taiyin Eradication Toxin from his clan painstakingly. Then he had placed the toxin into the body of Yi Xin'er, who was the core of his plan. Now, Yi Xin'er had been killed, which meant all his efforts had been in vain.

"This was your so-called plan, right? I remember you said your plan was foolproof, right? Now our younger sister has been killed because of you!" One of the sovereigns blamed Yi Fang and glared at him angrily.

A lot of people were implicated in this plan. If he failed, even outsiders like the sovereign who had just criticized him would also be punished.

"You shut up!" Yi Fang retorted as he stared at that sovereign with a chilly light flashing in his eyes.

The sovereign was dumbfounded when he heard that. Then he shrank back and didn't dare to respond to Yi Fang anymore.

After all, there was a gap in strength and backers between different sovereigns.

Yi Fang could become a candidate for the Holy Son because of his extraordinary strength and his backer who was a big shot in the Divine Farmer Clan. Therefore, Yi Fang was quite strong among the young people in the Divine Farmer Clan.

Now, Yi Fang was very angry. The rest of the sovereigns here didn't dare to blame him no matter how unhappy they were at this moment.

The guardians beside them were quite worried now. Before the death of Yi Xin'er, they had thought Yi Fang's plan could prevent them from being punished. Now, it seemed the situation had deteriorated totally.

The Divine Farmer Clan had a strict requirement that nobody should provoke Xu Que's father before figuring out his real strength.

They had connived with Yi Fang to kill Xu Que's father. The failure of his plan had also caused the death of Yi Xin'er. Even worse, Yi Xin'er had revealed her background before her death, which gave Xu Que's father another excuse to punish the Divine Farmer Clan.

Therefore, compared to the death of the two Taiyi Disbanded Celestials, the death of Yi Xin'er was much more serious!

"What should we do now?" A guardian asked seriously. It was useless to be angry now. They had to find a way to solve the problem.

The rest of the people here were speechless.

"What should we do? This is really a devastating question."

It was conceivable that they would be punished when they went back to their clan to warn the rest of the members and to try to calm Xu Que's father down. In this way, Xu Que's father would have no excuse to punish the Divine Farmer Clan.

Yi Fang frowned as he fixed his eyes on those figures in the white fog.

At this moment, Xu Que and his teammates were still standing beside the corpse of Yi Xin'er speechlessly.

This scene was quite weird!

"What are they doing there?" Yi Fang was quite puzzled.

"That's not important. Now we should find a way to solve this problem. If we go back to our clan like this, we will definitely be killed," a guardian said as he shook his head.

This guardian had also noticed the weird reaction of Xu Que and his teammates. But he had no time to think about it. He believed Xu Que was communicating with his teammates by sending messages. So, it was quite normal that they couldn't hear anything in this place.

Yi Fang also shook his head and ignored Xu Que and his teammates who were still in the white fog.

The main issue now was how to solve this troublesome problem!

After a short hesitation, Yi Fang turned around and fixed his eyes on the restrictive spell!

Behind this restrictive spell, there was a small hole that was only wide enough for one person to enter. The plantation of the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines, which was the biggest secret of the Divine Farmer Clan, was in this hole.

Actually, when the Divine Farmer Clan found this place, it was already full of Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines. Therefore, the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines were not planted by them. The members of the Divine Farmer Clan just came here to harvest the vines periodically.

They couldn't pick too many vines in each harvest. After all, the main stem was crucial for the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines. In order to get more vines, they only picked the vines on the main stem which were fully ripe without touching the main stem. The next harvest would be held when the rest of the vines were ripe.

Of course, there was a more important reason that they didn't touch the main stem of the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines.

Under the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines in this place, a powerful cultivator was being imprisoned.

At the thought of this, Yi Fang squinted his eyes slightly.

"As a matter of fact, there is another approach!" He said as he pointed at the hole seriously, "Open the restrictive spell and lure him into it! Then, let's awake the one inside it!"

"What?" Hearing this, the rest of the people's expressions changed to terror.

"No, Yi Fang, you can't do that! Once the one in the restrictive spell wakes up, the entire Heaven Continent will be in great danger. The consequences will be out of control," a guardian said hurriedly.

"Heh! We can take this opportunity to test the real strength of Xu Que's father! The best result would be that the two of them cause destruction to both sides," Yi Fang said as he smiled coldly. His eyes were full of malevolence.

"This is just wishful thinking! What if one of them survives? Do you know what the consequences could be?" An old man asked seriously.

Yi Fang shook his head calmly, "This restrictive spell has imprisoned that guy in this place for so many years! Do you think Xu Que's father could get out of it? When we lure them into the hole, we will close the restrictive spell immediately. Even if one of them survives, the survivor will never get out of this place! Heh! Heh!"

"What about the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines…"

"Do you think those Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines will still be under the control of our clan from this moment? Once Xu Que's father leaves this place, this place won't be the secret of our clan anymore. More and more people will know about this place. Also, Xu Que's father might seek revenge against our clan! Therefore, I suggest we should kill that old fart at the cost of this place. In this way, we can remove a horrible enemy for our clan," Yi Fang said without really thinking about the consequences.

Hearing this, the rest people here became speechless.

They had almost been convinced.

Yi Fang's words were reasonable. If they left here now, they would definitely be severely punished. Also, all the people in the world would find out about this place. If they gave up this place now, they could take this opportunity to kill Xu Que's father. The Divine Farmer Clan would also lose this place. However, all of them could stay alive in this way.

"Let's open the restrictive spell first. Then we should find a place to hide ourselves. When they go into the hole, we shall close the restrictive spell immediately. This is the only way to solve the problem now. Quickly! Let's open the restrictive spell before they walk out from the white fog," Yi Fang said excitedly.

"What? Who told you we were still in the white fog? We left that place a long time ago. What are you talking about?" A sarcastic voice came from behind them at this moment.

The people from the Divine Farmer Clan were shocked and turned around immediately.

They found Xu Que and his teammates were sitting at the edge of the white fog. They were looking at Yi Fang and the rest of the members of the Divine Farmer Clan as they ate hot pot at this time.

Yi Fang and the rest of the members of the Divine Farmer Clan were completely surprised.

When…did they come out of the white fog?

Chapter 1364: I Don't Want to Kill You Now

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

At this moment, the members of the Divine Farmer Clan were overwhelmed with anxiety.

Although they were under the protection of several guardians at the summit of the Golden Celestial Stage, even those guardians were very nervous at this time.

Up until now, nobody really knew the strength of Xu Que's father. This old man, who looked like a cultivator at the Half-Celestial Stage, had killed the Grand Deacon of the Heaven Palace Academy who was a Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven!

Now, this guy was looking at them as he enjoyed a hot pot with a smile. How could they stay calm?

The point was that they didn't know how long Xu Que's father had been in this place and whether he had heard the plan they had been talking about just now…

"Wow! Elder Xu is here! Just now we were talking about the punishment of a traitor in our clan. We didn't expect that Elder Xu would have arrived at this place," Yi Fang, who had quick wits, spoke with a faint smile.

Tactfully, he had said that Yi Xin'er was a traitor because of the words uttered by Yi Xin'er before her death. In this way, he could make his words hold water.

If Xu Que's father had just arrived at this place and only heard the latter half of their conversation, his sophistry could cover their plan and save the situation.

"Oh? A traitor? What a coincidence! On our way to this place, we came across a girl who said she was from the Divine Farmer Clan. She tried to provoke me against the Divine Farmer Clan. So I killed her," Xu Que replied with a smile as he picked up a piece of meat from the pot and inserted it into his mouth.

"We are glad to know that the traitor has been killed by Elder Xu! Thank you very much for your help! Also how long has it been since you have arrived at this place, if I may be so bold as to inquire? And what brings you to this place, please?" Yi Fang asked tentatively.

"Hah! Hah! Hah! Hah! We have just arrived. And we are just hanging around here," Xu Que replied as he waved his hand and laughed weirdly. His reaction only made his words seem more curious.

The members of the Divine Farmer Clan couldn't help but twitch their lips after hearing this.

His reply was totally meaningless!

How could you say you were hanging around aimlessly? Don't tell us you and your friends just came here to enjoy your meal!

BANG!

Xu Que hit Duan Jiude's chopsticks with his chopsticks and said, frowning, "Duan Jiude, I've told you so many times! You should take out the beef after it's been in the pot for ten seconds. Otherwise, it will be overcooked and the taste will be ruined."

"Ten seconds?"

Hearing this, the members of the Divine Farmer Clan let out a sigh of relief. It seemed they had just arrived at this place, which meant they didn't hear the plan they had been talking about just now.

"Bullsh*t! Your meatballs were boiled for such a long time! Why didn't you take them out?" Duan Jiude retorted as he looked at Xu Que angrily.

Members of the Divine Farmer Clan who had just relaxed felt nervous again. Then they fixed their eyes on Xu Que.

At this time, Xu Que said as he stared at Duan Jiude, "You know nothing! The meatballs are different than the beef! They need more time to become well cooked. Normally, we have to wait for at least ten minutes before we can eat them. These meatballs aren't even well cooked yet!"

The members of the Divine Farmer Clan let out a sigh of relief secretly again. It seemed they have just arrived at this place less than ten minutes ago.

"Wait! No! It seems I've made a mistake. I've eaten the first meatball I placed into the pot. Do you know when I placed it into the pot?" Suddenly, Xu Que asked in surprise.

Duan Jiude replied with a smile, "I guess you placed it into the pot when they said they would lock you in that hole!"

"Oh, I see!" Xu Que said as he nodded his head.

GASP!

The people from the Divine Farmer Clan were dumbfounded instantly.

The conversation between Xu Que and Duan Jiude was echoing in their mind like thunder.

It turned out that these people had heard the plan the members of the Divine Farmer Clan had been talking about just now! But…how could it be possible?

When we were talking about the plan, they were still in the white fog…

Wait! This is not correct!

Suddenly, several members of the Divine Farmer Clan figured out the reason for the weird reactions of Xu Que and his teammates in the white fog just now.

After Yi Xin'er's death, Xu Que and his teammates seemed to be standing in the white fog motionlessly. It seemed quite weird. But members of the Divine Farmer Clan thought they were communicating by sending messages to each other.

Now, it seemed their speculation had been totally wrong!

It was highly possible that the scene they had watched was just an illusion. No! It was definitely an illusion!

At the thought of this, the members of the Divine Farmer Clan's faces darkened.

They knew they had been completely fooled this time.

Xu Que and his teammates had heard all the countermeasures of Yi Fang and the rest of the members of the Divine Farmer Clan. However, Xu Que chose to enjoy the show of Yi Fang and his underlings, who tried to conceal their plan like fools, without debunking them.

"D*mn…" Yi Fang became more furious and he clenched his fists under his sleeves.

As a mighty sovereign of the Divine Farmer Clan, Yi Fang always praised himself as an exceptionally wise man. He had never been fooled by others like this before!

Now, he had been fooled by an old fart who had also killed Yi Xin'er. This was totally unacceptable!

The killing intent on Yi Fang's face became more and more obvious.

However, Yi Fang's sane mind stopped him from doing anything reckless. Otherwise, it was highly possible that he would lose his life here.

"Hey! Are you hungry? Would you mind joining us?" At this time, Xu Que turned around and asked as he looked at Yi Fang and his underlings with a kind smile.

Hearing this, the members of the Divine Farmer Clan were shocked.

"What is going on?

"Since he knows we were going to try to kill him, how could he be so nice to invite us to have dinner together with him?

"It doesn't conform to the description of his notorious reputation."

"Eh…thanks, but no thanks! We really appreciate Elder Xu's kindness," a guardian replied nervously at last.

Anyway, they should show due respect to Xu Que's father, even though they knew they couldn't accept the invitation!

They knew they couldn't afford to offend Xu Que in this case.

"What the h*ll? Don't treat me as a stranger! If I wanted to kill you, I could do it by moving my fingers. But I don't want to kill you now. Understand?" Xu Que said as he looked at the guardian casually.

"Eh…Elder Xu, please don't misunderstand us. We are not hungry now." The guardian of the Divine Farmer Clan twitched his lips and replied with a hollow smile.

Now the situation had become quite embarrassing. Members of the Divine Farmer Clan didn't dare to act rashly and had to stay there and treat Xu Que politely.

Actually, everyone here knew clearly that Xu Que's father would never forgive them.

"Alas! Why does this world misunderstand me in such a profound way?" Xu Que sighed as he shook his head. Then he said calmly, "I will not attack unless I am attacked, but I will surely counterattack if attacked. This is the principle I have adhered to for many years."

After saying that, Xu Que paused and continued to say as he looked at the members of the Divine Farmer Clan, "Yi Xin'er placed poisonous worms on my body just now. So I killed her! Now you are planning to kill me here. But you are lucky for it is just a plan that hasn't been implemented yet. So I won't kill you!"

"However…you will still be punished although I have decided to spare your lives. So, let's just do it according to the old rules. I need Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines! Do you have any with you? Ten pieces are enough!"

Chapter 1365: I Won't, I Just Won't

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After Xu Que said those words, the Divine Farmer Clan was dumbfounded.

"The old rules?"

"Do we have to offer Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines as compensation?"

"Didn't we offer you 200 vines as compensation last time? Have you used them this quickly?"

"You have lowered the price. This time, you only asked for ten vines."

The people from the Divine Farmer Clan were very dubious about everything Xu Que had said, and they all looked confused.

They were sure that a ploy by Xu Que was involved.

"Why do you all look so dazed? Today, I'm in a good mood and don't want to harm you. Yet, you still don't want to take out even ten Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines." Xu Que's expression turned gloomy as he questioned them with a frown.

"No! Elder Xu, don't misunderstand us, we just…" a Guardian laughed hollowly.

However, Xu Que cried out in surprise, interrupting him before the Guardian could even finish his words. "Oh, my God, don't tell me that you don't have even ten Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines?"

After Xu Que had finished speaking, he sized up these people as if they were paupers before he shook his head and sighed.

"You ought to have at least five pieces, don't you?"

"Five pieces?"

When the Divine Farmer Clan group heard this, their eyes opened wide. He had lowered the price to a horrifyingly low figure, and they were caught unprepared by this.

Yi Fang was the most infuriated by this move of Xu Que's. When Xu Que had been sizing them up a while ago, his gaze had focused mainly on Yi Fang, and it seemed as if he was looking down on him.

Even though Xu Que hadn't said anything, Yi Fang still found this insulting.

Yi Dan's Guardians had taken out 200 pieces, while he couldn't take out even ten pieces. Xu Que obviously took them for poor weaklings.

"How could he bear this?"

"How the h*ll could he stand it?"

"Elder Xu!"

Yi Fang promptly stepped forward and took out a storage ring. He said through gritted teeth, "Here are 20 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines. Please accept it kindly!"

SWOOSH!

The storage ring instantly flew toward Xu Que.

Xu Que smiled and waved his hand. He intercepted the storage ring and used his Divine Consciousness to observe its contents. He confirmed that it really had 20 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines.

"Hum? Pretty good. I now have 20 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines," Xu Que said as he nodded with satisfaction. He looked at them with a scary smile on his face.

At this moment, even Duan Jiude smiled and winked at them.

"Elder Xu, you've received the right amount. So please honor your word. And let's drop this matter," Yi Fang realized that something was amiss, and he promptly saluted Xu Que before he spoke.

"I won't do so!" Xu Que replied suddenly.

"What?" Yi Fang was taken aback.

"I won't do so," Xu Que crossed his arms in front of his chest and spoke with a proud look on his face.

The Divine Farmer Clan members were dumbfounded.

"You won't do so? You won't do it?"

"What do you mean by this?"

"Elder Xu, are you implying…" A Guardian attempted to figure out what Xu Que was talking about.

"Really, do I have to state everything bluntly? It's quite embarrassing!" Xu Que wore an embarrassed look and shook his head. "What I mean is that…I won't honor my word."

"Huh???"

"Do you feel that you can't make sense of this? Do you think that it sounds childish? Ha, ha. Simply put, it's just that…I won't honor my word," Xu Que clearly enjoyed saying that with a sly smile.

The expression on the faces of the members of the Divine Farmer Clan changed drastically.

"F*ck! This old b*stard, we should have anticipated that this would happen. He made it too easy for us."

The two siblings, Yi Zhong and Yi Dan, had only been guilty of a trifling matter, yet they had both been killed, and, to add insult to injury, they had to offer 200 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines as compensation later. But now, they had been caught plotting to harm Xu Que. So how would it have been possible to settle this matter with 20 pieces as compensation?

��Elder Xu, since you have decided not to spare us, why do you have to toy with us like this?" Yi Fang's expression was gloomy, and he questioned him coldly.

At this moment, Yi Fang didn't think about begging forgiveness. He was clearly aware that begging forgiveness of this person would be useless, and, if he had been in his shoes, he surely wouldn't have spared his opponents.

"No, no, no. You have misunderstood me. I'm not in the mood to toy with you."

Xu Que waved his arm and shook his head before he spoke, "You probably don't know this, but my power is quite unstable. Every time I fight, I must refine and absorb the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines to replenish my power. If I don't do so, I wouldn't be able to defeat even one of your Guardians."

SWOOSH!

After Xu Que spoke, he waved his hand and a black Mystical Fire arose from his palm. It engulfed the 20 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines and started quickly refining them.

The Divine Farmer Clan members opened their eyes wide and they quickly came back to their senses.

It turned out that this was the reason why this old man demanded such a large amount of Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines. They unexpectedly had this function.

"F*ck! If we don't attack now, when will we do so?"

BANG!

In an instant, the Divine Farmer Clan's several Guardians exchanged glances. They communicated briefly before they attacked without the least bit of hesitation.

The power of their peak Golden Celestial Stage couldn't be overlooked.

These few people had protected Yi Fang for many years, and they had a tacit understanding. They started using outstanding Magic Arts when they attacked.

Every person released two golden light beams from their palms, and when those light beams interwove, they formed thick golden lightning shackles. They seemed like thorns that flew toward Xu Que from all directions. The Guardians were trying to interrupt Xu Que and prevent him from refining the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines.

Xu Que looked apathetic and let out disdainful laughter. "He, he. What cheap tricks! Guardian Mo, I will let you deal with them."

"Huh?" Mo Junchen had been just watching the fight, and he had assumed that the confident Xu Que would deal with everything by himself. He didn't expect that Xu Que would ask him to fight.

Those were five Guardians at the peak Golden Celestial Stage, and, even though he had a first-rate Hell King's Prison Suppression Physique, he still wouldn't be able to take more than several beatings from them.

However, even though he felt helpless, he was still like an arrow on the bowstring that must be shot.

After all, Xu Que was most important source for dealing with these people, and he was the sole person who could summon the two souls. If Xu Que suffered harm, everyone else would die here.

Mo Junchen's body shivered, and his Celestial Core Power surged throughout his whole body.

RUMBLE!

As a vibration was transmitted from his body and a tyrannical aura emanated from him, his body became tougher and stronger than before.

He had comprehended the Hell King's Prison Suppression Physique through studying the Mighty Body of Hades, and even though his physique couldn't surpass the Mighty Body, it still had many aspects similar to it, and it was the same for the Mighty Body's unique tyrannical aura. It had instantly intimidated the few Guardians at the peak Golden Celestial Stage.

Mo Junchen could depend upon this to become nearly invincible among people at the same stage as him.

But this invincibility was limited to one-on-one or one-on-three, and now it was one-on-fine, and this brought great pressure on him.

This was why Mo Junchen could only release his full power right away, and he used the power of Hell King's Prison Suppression Physique to the pinnacle. He charged onward in a spurt of energy and condensed his Celestial Core Power before he fused it with his fleshly body's power. Soon after, he thrust his fist ferociously.

BANG!

As a loud noise echoed, two golden lightning chains were extinguished, and they had only managed to leave a faint mark on Mo Junchen's fist.

The expression of the Divine Farmer Clan members changed drastically and they cried out in alarm, "A Physical Cultivator."

"Don't pay attention to anything else and attack quickly. He can't block you," Yi Fang shouted loudly, and his shout helped the few Guardians come back to their senses.

They should deal with Xu Que and interrupt his refining process. They surely mustn't allow him to refine the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines successfully, and, if they couldn't do so, it would be them who would die.

"You should pin down the Physical Cultivator. As for the Second Elder and Fourth Elder, you should join hands with me and interrupt that old man," the oldest Guardian shouted loudly.

The remaining four people immediately separated. Two of them attacked Mo Junchen, while the other two helped the oldest Guardian and started casting a Magic Art again to attack Xu Que!

Dazzling radiance shortly emanated from their palms and struck the ground.

As a loud rumbling sound echoed out, the ground split open and ten vines as thick as an arm came out of it. Those vines were filled with venomous stings and they went after Xu Que like snakes.

"He, he. I was waiting for you to hit me," Xu Que said sneeringly. Lightning emanated from his feet, and he fused it along with the Holy Physique's power. He had instantly disappeared from his former place and appeared in a place several hundred yards away.

The next moment, he waved his hand and sprinkled the liquid of a part of the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines that was refined completely on the Firestorm Wheels.

"It's awful! Hurry up and obstruct him. He has already refined half of it," Yi Fang shouted loudly.

Xu Que laughed heartily. "That���s right! Hurry up and come over to obstruct me. You should all come over. I'll give you a chance to obstruct me."

After Xu Que spoke, he lay on the ground and spread his legs. "Come over, come over quickly."

Chapter 1366: This Time, Let's See Whether You Still Won't Die

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"What?"

The few Guardians charging at Xu Que were taken aback, and they stopped in their tracks. They found this sight quite strange, and they were caught off guard.

"What is happening?"

"Why did this old man lie down?"

"He asked us to go obstruct him, didn't he?"

"There must be some ploy here."

"What, are you still in a daze? Don't let him deceive you. He's only trying to scare you, hurry up and attack!" Yi Fang shouted.

If it had been in the past, Yi Fang might have seen through Xu Que's tricks. After all, Xu Que had been using tricks to intimidate people forever in the Heaven Continent, and his disguises and act gave people the false impression that he was an unfathomable man.

At first, Xu Que didn't do it on purpose. However, when he discovered that most people misunderstood him, he went along with the flow and continued using tricks. This was a well-tried trick!

This was why Yi Fang could be considered quite smart. The two siblings Yi Zhong and Yi Dan had been deceived by Xu Que's tricks and scared by them. That time, their Guardians didn't dare to attack, and this was why both geniuses died at the hands of Xu Que.

Yi Fang had analyzed the previous events, and he had assumed that he could see through Xu Que's tricks.

When he saw Xu Que taking these actions, he assumed that Xu Que was trying to use the same old trick to scare the Guardians before refining Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vine sneakily to recover power and kill them.

This was why he mustn't allow Xu Que to get his way, and he yelled at the Guardians anxiously. He asked them to quickly deal with Xu Que.

However, Xu Que already had the two Almighty Beings souls as partners, and the triggering condition for making them fight and kill enemies was Xu Que's suffering someone's attack or having someone reveal hostility toward him.

Yi Fang's guess might have been correct in the past, but now it was beyond wrong, and what he had done was exactly what Xu Que wanted.

"Hurry up. We mustn't give them more time. Don't pay attention to the Physical Cultivator and quickly deal with that old man," Yi Fang urged them again, and he even yelled at the two Guardians fighting Mo Junchen. He asked them to ignore Mo Junchen and attack Xu Que with their full power.

Upon hearing this, Xu Que was delighted. He had gotten everything he wanted, and this could be considered excellent service.

A while ago, he had refined most of the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines, and the amount he refined was tantamount to a bit more than ten pieces.. This amount was enough to make the two souls reach their peak state.

This was why Xu Que was quite delighted. Yi Fang's actions helped him save a lot of time, and he didn't have to take any other action. He could just directly make a hole in one…

"It does seem like Yi Fang has really revealed his true worth. He's like a lubricant, and he's able to help people reduce foreplay." Xu Que was lying on the ground observing the azure sky, and he became lost in his thoughts.

As a matter of fact, when the two souls recovered their power, Xu Que didn't have anything to worry about any longer, and he didn't take Yi Fang and his few Guardians for a threat.

After all, they couldn't pose any threat to him because there was a large disparity in power between them. This was why even if Xu Que wanted to get serious, he couldn't do so.

"Was a battle where he didn't have to fight interesting?"

"No, it wasn't!"

"It really wasn't! It was too boring, and this was the downside of invincibility."

"Powerhouses are really lonesome!"

Xu Que let out a profound and sorrowful sigh before shaking his head.

SWOOSH!

Meanwhile, the Divine Farmer Clan Guardians had already charged at him. At this moment, they could only obey Yi Fang's instructions and charge at Xu Que. They must obstruct him from refining the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines and recovering his power.

This was why it didn't matter whether Yi Fang's guess was correct.

They had already attacked of their own accord and shed all pretense of cordiality. This was why they must give this a try even if the odds of success were quite slim.

BANG!

In an instant, a dazzling radiance emanated from them and formed thick light beams with sizzling lightning that interwove.

The light beams quickly gathered and the lightning emanated with a thunderous noise. Then they gathered at the center and fused together before they started transforming into an ancient giant tree atop Xu Que's head.

The tree was giant and tall and it had a trunk made out of lightning. It used the world's Spiritual Qi to make branches, leaves, and bear much golden fruit.

This sudden disturbance alerted Duan Jiude and his group.

"This is…," Duan Jiude cried out in alarm.

"What a powerful Magic Art. It's quite outstanding," Mo Junchen said as his expression turned grave.

They had assumed that Xu Que had already won and that the battle didn't have any more suspense. But the five Guardians joined hands to cast this Magic, and after they detected its aura and might, they couldn't help but have a new level of respect for the Guardians.

However, this respect that they had for them wasn't related to Xu Que's odds of victory.

After all, Xu Que's odds of victory were the two almighty souls.

Even if the five Guardian weren't at peak Golden Celestial Stage, but the Daluo Golden Celestial Stage, Xu Que would still have 100 percent chance of victory.

"F*ck! If you want to fight, just fight! Why do you have to make this giant tree atop my head? It's fortunate that it isn���t green, as if it was green, I would have surely stood up to trample you to death."

At this moment, Xu Que scolded them as he continued lying on the ground.

He felt disinclined to even stand up, and he put his hands behind his head and raised one leg over the other. He was lying on the ground as leisurely as if it had been a sofa, and he seemed quite relaxed and carefree.

When he faced the ancient tree that emanated an imposing aura, he didn't even consider hiding from it, and he just scolded his enemies.

Yi Fang's eyes lit up due to this and delight welled up in his heart.

It was obvious that in Yi Fang's eyes, Xu Que's arrogant actions gave them a great opportunity to make a successful counterattack.

Not everyone knew what kind of Magic Art the ancient tree was, but he knew it clearly. This ancient tree was the Magic Art with the highest offensive power in the Divine Farmer Clan, and it was called the Divine Farmer Heavenly Tribulation Fruit.

Even though it seemed from its name that it was a type of spiritual fruit, as a matter of fact it was a Magic Art, and it could only be cast by the joint efforts of at least five people.

Every golden fruit borne by the ancient tree contained tremendous lightning power, and it nearly reached the legendary Ancient Catastrophe power. In addition, if all golden fruits in the ancient tree were detonated, their might would likely rival a true Ancient Catastrophe.

This was the power of a Heavenly Tribulation, and it wasn't on the same level as Magic Arts.

"Very good, detonate all the Tribulation Fruits and take advantage of this to take his life," Yi Fang shouted loudly and passed down instructions.

The few Guardians already had this plan. They were facing Xu Que and didn't dare to take him carelessly. This was why they used their full power to cast their strongest Magic Art. They would struggle at the risk of their lives.

They wanted to use this Magic Art to summon the legendary Ancient Catastrophe and use it to deal with Xu Que.

THUMP!

In the end, the few Guardians bit their tongues and spouted blood fog that they sprinkled on the ancient tree. At the same time, they released Magical Seals and activated all the golden fruits on the ancient tree.

At this moment, every golden fruit started shaking and the destructive aura of a Heavenly Tribulation started permeating the region.

A crazy thrill appeared in the eyes of Yi Fang. He smiled and spoke in a mockin

g voice, "Old b*stard, let's see whether you still won't die this time."

Chapter 1367: One Couldn't Afford to Offend Him

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"Heavenly Tribulation?"

Xu Que was taken aback. He had already detected that familiar aura.

Boundless heavenly might descended forcefully from the sky. It was lofty, boundless, and sought to subdue all beings.

However, Xu Que was already used to heavenly might, and not just heavenly might, even Heavenly Tribulation.

Purple Cloud Heavenly Tribulation and Ancient Catastrophes were nothing out of the ordinary for him, and he didn't find them challenging or difficult.

"Hee, hee, I assumed that you would do something great, yet after this great disturbance, you have attracted just a wisp of an Ancient Catastrophe," Xu Que said as he chuckled with an indolent look on his face before he stuck his finger in his ear and expressed his disdain.

Yi Fang laughed coldly and said, "Elder Xu, why don't you take a clear look at it. It's two wisps, not one."

He pointed at the sky with his finger.

Two thick golden lightning bolts were among the raging clouds and they seemed like faintly discernible giant dragons among black clouds. They were making threatening gestures from time to time and emanated a boundless aura.

The great heavenly might could make people feel as if two giant dragons' eyes were glaring at them and make their hearts shiver with fear.

Xu Que laughed and spoke again, "Huh? So it's really two wisps of an Ancient Catastrophe. I'm really scared to death! Ha, ha, ha."

"Why are you laughing?" Yi Fang frowned and shouted angrily.

In his eyes, Elder Xu shouldn't be having this reaction after the appearance of an Ancient Catastrophe.

"It seems as if he doesn't understand the might of an Ancient Catastrophe," a talented youth of the Divine Farmer Clan stepped forward and spoke with Yi Fang.

Yi Fang shook his head. There were only two explanations for Elder Xu's reaction after seeing the Ancient Catastrophe.

He either didn't understand the Ancient Catastrophe's terrifying might or he didn't fear an Ancient Catastrophe at all.

But didn't the second explanation have greater odds?

It was unlikely!

Cultivators were afraid of Heavenly Tribulations and respected them. In general, if a cultivator ran into a Purple Cloud Heavenly Tribulation, it would be difficult for him to survive unless he was a genius with a great aptitude.

As for Heavenly Tribulations at the rank of an Ancient Catastrophe? They were feared by all cultivators.

Those were the most commonly seen Heavenly Tribulations in the Gods' era, and it was rumored that they could kill even Gods and Buddhas. In the Gods War, innumerable Gods and Buddhas had been killed by the Ancient Catastrophe.

The higher one's stage, the more afraid one would be of an Ancient Catastrophe. This tribulation was especially used to kill Gods and Buddha, but its might still wouldn't become too low just because its target was at a low stage. Even if one was at a low stage, the Ancient Catastrophe's might would still be the most terrifying among all kinds of Heavenly Tribulations.

This was why no matter what one's stage, one would still have a high chance to die in an Ancient Catastrophe, and even if one survived, one would suffer heavy injuries.

The Sage Sect's powerful Divine Being of Taoist Fetus was the person with the best aptitude during the recent past, and when he advanced into the Heaven Celestial Stage he ran across a wisp of an Ancient Catastrophe.

At that time, he was protected by many Almighty beings, all kinds of Celestial Artifacts, and he possessed many high-grade spiritual elixirs. The Divine Being of Taoist Fetus revealed his whole power, yet the outcome was still shocking.

The four limbs of the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus had been destroyed by the Heavenly Tribulation, and his whole body had been broken apart. Only his upper body was left.

However, he obviously survived and became stronger than before.

But this was still a special case. After all, he was the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus and other cultivators weren't on a par with him.

Now, it seemed like Elder Xu had trained his body, but even if it was the case, so what? Was he on a par with the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus?

All people were equal in the face of a Heavenly Tribulation.

"If your stage level and aptitude were high and great, this only means that you will face a Heavenly Tribulation with a more terrifying might."

Moreover, it seemed like Elder Xu's body was sick, and he couldn't release his full power. This was why, even if he didn't die in the face of the Ancient Catastrophe's two wisps, he would lose a layer of skin, and anyone here would be able to easily kill him.

This was why Yi Fang believed that the reason why Elder Xu wasn't afraid of the Ancient Catastrophe was most likely that he didn't know the might of an Ancient Catastrophe.

After all, most of the Heaven Continent's cultivators didn't know the Ancient Catastrophe, while the Divine Farmer Clan's secret art was quite precious and they rarely cast it.

It was only after the Sage Sect's Divine Being of Taoist Fetus faced an Ancient Catastrophe that many knowledgeable old men took out ancient records and recounted the history of the golden Heavenly Tribulation.

As Yi Fang thought of this, he became more certain of Elder Xu's ignorance and he laughed coldly and said, "Elder Xu, since you think that the Ancient Catastrophe doesn't amount to anything, then… Hee, hee, I hope that you will enjoy it very much."

BANG!

At nearly the same time, a deafening noise emanated from the sky.

The two golden lightning bolts in the raging black clouds became brighter and emitted a destructive aura that engulfed the surroundings in a stifling ambience.

Many people held their breaths and their expressions turned grave. They backed off and distanced themselves from the Heavenly Tribulation's scope.

As for Yi Fang, he promptly and quickly retreated after he spoke.

The few Guardians that had summoned the Ancient Catastrophe were pale-faced because they had lost a lot of blood.

Even though they had managed to summon an Ancient Catastrophe, their cultivation base had dropped by two small stages and they went from the Golden Celestial Stage's peak to its early stage, while they also lost a large part of their life span. They suffered great losses!

But, even if they hadn't suffered those losses, they still wouldn't dare to face an Ancient Catastrophe. This was a deadly Heavenly Tribulation. So who would dare to stay in its vicinity?

SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!

The Heavenly Tribulation had already condensed its power, and the Guardians didn't have to maintain the Heavenly Tribulation Fruits and Heavenly Tribulation Tree, which started disappearing by themselves. This was why the few Guardians promptly retreated along with Yi Fang and his companions, and they set out to try to escape.

After all, their stage level had already dropped, and they didn't just have to leave the Heavenly Tribulation's scope, they also have to hide from the attacks of the sole apex Golden Celestial here, Mo Junchen.

However, they had retreated warily, and they didn't plan to leave this place altogether.

Even if Mo Junchen was at the peak of the Golden Celestial Stage, and they were only at the Golden Celestial Stage's early stage, they were still confident that they could protect the few talented youths and escape safely from Mo Junchen.

Now, they had stayed behind only to witness the death of Xu Que's father and see the Ancient Catastrophe annihilating him.

BANG!

As a loud noise echoed out, a golden lightning bolt finally descended.

It penetrated the clouds and fell down from the sky like a giant golden dragon. It dove down at a terrifyingly high speed and attacked Xu Que.

Xu Que was still lying on the ground lazily with one leg over the other, and he welcomed the golden Heavenly Tribulation with a happy face.

He acted like he was lying on the beach and basking in the sun.

Yi Fang realized that something was amiss. This guy was too calm, and it seemed like his calmness was due to his great confidence.

"What is going on? Could it be that…? He…he really doesn't fear an Ancient Catastrophe?" An unsettling thought ran across Yi Fang's mind.

He looked at the fog's edges. Duan Jiude and Liu Jingning also seemed quite calm, and they weren't afraid of the Ancient Catastrophe either.

This made Yi Fang even more skeptical. According to reason, even if they didn't know about the Ancient Catastrophe, they should be at least curious about this type of Heavenly Tribulation, and they should even realize that it was outstanding due to its terrifying heavenly might. Their expressions should have at least turned solemn and grave.

But Duan Jiude and his companions were super-calm as if this wasn't the first time they had seen this kind of Heavenly Tribulation. Instead, they were used to seeing it frequently and weren't any longer curious about it. This was why they weren't afraid of it!

"This isn't right, something is amiss. We might have guessed wrong. It seems like this old man really doesn't fear the Ancient Catastrophe," Yi Fang couldn't help but speak up in a deep voice.

BANG!

As his voice just echoed out, the falling speed of the raging Ancient Catastrophe that descended from the sky unexpectedly turned slower.

Xu Que also stood up from the ground and spread out his arms. He shouted loudly, "Hurry up and come over, my dear Ancient Catastrophe. I have missed you!"

BANG!

The golden lightning bolt stopped in the air before it turned around and flew into the sky. It escaped frantically, while even the raging black clouds started scattering quickly.

The whole process perfectly stated that they didn't dare to provoke their target.

In an instant, Yi Fang was dumbfounded.

The Divine Farmer Clan Guardians and the few talented youths were also dumbfounded.

Even Duan Jiude, Liu Jingning, and Mo Junchen were taken aback, and they all stood in their places, dazed.

Chapter 1368: Demon! Ah, Demon!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Did the Heavenly Tribulation run away?

That's what everyone thought!

Even though Duan Jiude and Liu Jingning had once seen Xu Que crossing a tribulation, it was only at the last phase that the Heavenly Tribulation started retreating. It had never run away by itself when only half-descended.

This was a never-before-seen happening and a shocking sight.

"My dear, when did this lad become so devilish? Even the Heavenly Tribulation is afraid of him," Duan Jiude asked, as he was filled with shock. He found this unbelievable.

Liu Jingning also looked startled, but later she smiled beautifully.

"The man I fancy should be like this."

…..

"F*ck! Do you want to escape? I have waited for you for a long time, yet you want to escape? Come back to me!"

At this moment, Xu Que shouted loudly and stamped the ground with both legs. He instantly turned into a light beam that rushed into the sky.

In the twinkling of an eye, he overtook the golden lightning bolt, and, as he waved his hand, his tremendous Celestial Core Power formed a giant hand that seemed like a God's hand. The hand forcefully took hold of the golden lightning bolt and pulled it!

BANG!

The next moment, Xu Que opened his mouth and a terrifying suction force emanated from him. He instantly absorbed the struggling golden lightning into his belly.

In an instant, his whole body became engulfed by golden lightning, and it emitted a golden radiance. Wisps of lightning were running across his skin's surface, and his body seemed like a Golden Dharmic Body that could exterminate all other beings. He seemed so powerful!

The Divine Farmer Clan members were completely dumbstruck, and their minds went blank.

As for Yi Fang, his face turned pale, his pupils contracted, and his body shivered. He found this unbelievable!

"How…how is this possible?"

He couldn't accept this. This was beyond his understanding of a Heavenly Tribulation.

Cultivators were afraid of the Heavenly Tribulation because it was a tribulation, it was a tribulation of Heaven that they suffered because they went against it. Everyone had been afraid of it throughout the ages.

But now, the Ancient Catastrophe that was considered the most terrifying Heavenly Tribulation had been scared by an old man. The most amazing thing was that this old man had still chased it and swallowed it.

"What is the meaning of this?"

"Is he toying with us?"

"We have striven so hard and our few Guardians have consumed a large part of their cultivation power and life span to summon an Ancient Catastrophe. Yet, this is the outcome."

"What the h*ll is this? What kind of crazy plot is this?"

The Divine Farmer Clan members almost collapsed, and it was especially the case for the few Guardians. They couldn't accept this reality, and they had even forgotten about trying to get away. They stood in a daze in their places and observed everything that occurred with blank faces.

This incident had occurred quickly, and it had lasted for only a few seconds. After Xu Que swallowed the first wisp of Ancient Catastrophe, his body quickly moved and charged toward the second wisp.

The golden lightning was hiding among the pitch-black lightning clouds and it was trying to disappear.

If the clouds didn't scatter, the golden lightning wouldn't be able to dissipate, and it could only hide among them. It was like a scared little snake and it didn't possess even a tad of its former tyrannical aura and heavenly might.

"Come get me!"

Xu Que laughed in front of the dumbstruck crowd's gazes as he looked for the second wisp of the Ancient Catastrophe in the clouds and dragged it away forcefully. Soon after, he stuffed it into his mouth.

This was a crude and simple way to swallow it, and it left a second trauma on the minds of the Divine Farmer Clan members.

A demon, this man was a demon and wasn't a human.

How was it possible for an ordinary person or an ordinary cultivator to do this?

The Divine Farmer Clan members were shocked, and their knowledge, which was built upon innumerable years of cultivation, was nearly toppled.

BURP!!

At this moment, Xu Que let out a long burp in the sky. The noise wasn't loud, but the Divine Farmer Clan members found it too ear-piercing, and they found it satirical.

However, Xu Que had only burped because his belly was too full. This was the first time he had tried swallowing the golden lightning to consume it.

As a matter of fact, this had distinctive effects. In the past, when he still had the Hell King's Prison Suppression Physique, he tried using the golden lightning to hone his body. But now, he had already gotten a second-rate holy physique, and an Ancient Catastrophe at this grade couldn't be used to hone his body.

This was why he had swallowed it, and this was better than using it externally to hone his body because the effects would be greater.

Even though it didn't seem that his body's surface received any immediate benefits, his meridians and internal organs power rose by another level after they were honed by the Ancient Catastrophe's lightning essence.

A Holy Physique implied that the inside and outside of one's body were both trained to the pinnacle, and one could depend upon his flesh body alone to become a saint. This was why it was called a Holy Physique!

"Interesting! When I get a first-rate Holy Physique in the future, nothing in the world will be able to obstruct me, and, if I want to go back to Earth, I just have to pierce the void with my fist and fly among the Spatial Wind's blades."

Xu Que had gotten some inspiration, and he became full of expectations for the Holy Physique.

The Holy Physique of the Act-Tough King had an aptitude and future beyond imagination, and it probably had another potential that he still hadn't unearthed thoroughly.

"I need a fight. No, I don't need just one fight, but a large number of fights. I need them to stimulate the Holy Physique's boundless potential so that it can reach a new level. I must find a way to acquire a first-rate Holy Physique."

Xu Que understood something. All kinds of physiques couldn't reach their peak state by depending on a large amount of precious natural resources, and even if it was possible, one still wouldn't be able to perfectly use that said physique's full power.

During the recent past, he had been vigilant and fearful. After all, Taiyi Celestials and Daluo Celestials could kill him with a single finger.

This was why he wanted to develop himself through acting shamelessly, and he wanted to keep a low-profile as he tried to become stronger. This was why he used the identity of Xu Que's father to cheat people in the Heaven Continent and why he used tricks to intimidate people.

It was especially the case when he got the protection of the two souls at the apex of the Celestial Prime Stage. Then he had desired to laze around more than before.

But now, after he had swallowed two golden lightning bolts, his flesh body got much stronger, and this was why Xu Que finally reflected over what he had been doing.

He mustn't continue doing what he had been doing for a long time!

His road was filled with dangers, and a person who could pose a deadly threat to Xuanyuan Wanrong had even appeared. This was why he must become stronger quickly!

"Why I was so strong in the past?"

"Besides the System, the reason behind this was that I was fearless. Isn't that so?"

"But now, why do I have to fear everything?"

"Even if I possess a backer and supporter, I still mustn't depend upon him to make a living, and I must free myself of all restraints and struggle with my power fearlessly. In any case, I have support, so why do I have to worry about anything?"

"In the past, my supporter was the System. But now, the System's version is out-dated, and it can't provide me help for now. This was why my greatest supporter now is the two souls at the peak Celestial Prime Stage."

"This is why I must now do something great."

BANG!

The aura of Xu Que that was in the air suddenly became stronger and sharper than before, and his fearless, dominating air was revealed wholly.

This aura had always belonged to Xu Que, but after he disguised himself as Xu Que's father, he had restrained it.

But now, he didn't have to curb anything, and he didn't plan to conceal anything.

"As a matter of fact, I have a secret, and I must inform you of it."

Xu Que stood in the air and looked disdainfully at everyone. He stared at Yi Fang and his companions before he spoke with a smile.

Yi Fang and his companions were scared by Xu Que's powerful aura that had appeared suddenly, and they didn't pay any attention to what he said. Their first response was: "D*mn it!"

"It's awful! Let's retreat quickly," Yi Fang shouted.

The few Guardians responded quickly, and they probably carried the talented youths and Yi Fang, before they rushed toward the entrance.

They didn't care about the secret that Xu Que wanted to divulge, and the only thing they knew now was that if they didn't escape, they would surely die here and they would suffer a miserable death.

But what was beyond their expectations was that after they had rushed out, they discovered that Xu Que hadn't taken any actions and he was still floating in mid-air, looking at them with a smile.

Yi Fang and his companions realized that something was amiss, and they turned their heads around to take a look.

Mo Junchen was already waiting for them. He released the full power of Hell King's Prison Suppression Physique. He emitted a tyrannical aura and he seemed able to defend a pass by himself in the face of 10,000 men. He blocked the way!

He slowly raised his hand and pointed his finger at Yi Fang's group. He sneered and said, "I want to fight ten all by myself."

Chapter 1369: Why's He So Outstanding?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!

Several silhouettes could be seen flitting swiftly across the edge of the fog. They even left behind several afterimages.

No one made any comments about this situation.

The Divine Farmer Clan Guardians carried the few talented youths, including Yi Fang, and rushed away.

Even though these few remaining Guardians' stage levels had dropped to the initial stage of the Golden Celestial Stage, their power still couldn't be underestimated and their speed wasn't any lower than it had been when they were in their peak states.

Thus they'd decided to leave without any hesitation.

To their eyes, Mo Junchen wouldn't be able to block their group, which was focused completely on escaping, even though he was an apex Golden Celestial Stage powerhouse

After all, the disparity between the two sides was just two small stages. If people whose power had reached their level didn't want to fight to the death, and one side was focused completely on escape, then the other side wouldn't manage to take them down unless it possessed a numerical advantage, a formation spell, or a restriction spell.

This was why the Guardians of the Divine Farmer Clan decided to ignore Mo Junchen, who had stepped forward to intercept them. They refused to fight him. They made a quick retreat with their clan's talented youths, and they planned to forcefully break through Mo Junchen's defenses before escaping.

"Let's separate and leave. Don't waste time, and don't have a head-on confrontation with him."

One of the Guardians, who carried with him two talented youths, took the lead. He shouted out his instructions before he detoured around Mo Junchen and tried to rush into the white fog.

"Do you want to leave? I'm sorry, but you can't go anywhere today."

Mo Junchen shook his head with an indifferent look plastered on his face. He raised his hand suddenly and waved it toward the first Guardian.

BANG!

Boundless Celestial Core Power and physical power instantly fused together and formed an invisible airwave, which moved forward as it crazily absorbed the Spiritual Qi in its range.

All of a sudden, it started quickly transforming into thousands upon thousands of weapons after it had absorbed all the Spiritual Qi in its range.

Every weapon's blade shone with a cold glint and emitted an intense murderous aura. The weapons rushed toward the first Guardian and rained upon him.

"Continue retreating and don't pay any heed to him," the Guardian looked worried, but he still shouted directions to his fellows.

He waved his sleeves and tried to block Mo Junchen's move.

However, he'd forgotten that his power had already dropped, and he also wasn't aware of the great power of the first-rate Hell King's Prison Suppression Physique possessed by Mo Junchen.

The innumerable weapons appeared out of thin air and flew around. The blades, swords, and spears didn't just contain Mo Junchen's Celestial Core Power, they also possessed the tyrannical aura of the first-rate Hell King's Prison Suppression Physique.

The fusion of these two factors instantly formed a unique Tao Aura, and their might rose drastically.

The Guardian's expression changed drastically.

"How's this possible?" he cried out in alarm. He'd assumed that a wave of his sleeves would be enough to break this Magic Art. After all, in his eyes, Mo Junchen's low-grade Magic Art was inferior. There was no way it should be this strong.

But as he just waved his sleeves, he realized that something was amiss.

As he raised his arm and was about to wave it, it stiffened unexpectedly and he wasn't able to move it at all. The Magic Art he was about to cast was also obstructed halfway to its target.

This demonstrated that Mo Junchen's Tao Aura had surpassed him by a whole level. Both sides should have Tao Auras at the same level, but the Guardian could sense that the balance between them had been broken.

"No, this is impossible! How can a Physique Cultivator have this great an

advantage? You aren't a person with a gifted physique."

The Guardian shouted at Mo Junchen. He was dumbfounded.

He clenched his teeth, revealing his strong desire for survival. He managed to wave his arm at the last moment.

In an instant, a formless power emanated from him, and it resembled a deep gray ocean with raging waves. His force faced Mo Junchen's innumerable weapons.

BANG!

As a loud rumble echoed out, the gray ocean collapsed and turned into clear water that evaporated in the air.

As for the weapons formed by Mo Junchen, they were intact and were still as sharp as before. They flew toward the Guardian with the same boundless murderous aura.

When the other four Guardians saw this, their eyes opened wide. They were quite astounded!

It could be seen through Mo Junchen's attack that this apex Golden Celestial Stage powerhouse was no ordinary person.

"Let's leave quickly! This is a strong foe!" Someone among them spoke with a grave look on his face, and his anxiety was apparent in his tone.

At this moment, they realized that even if they hadn't consumed their power to summon the Ancient Catastrophe and they were still at the peak of the Golden Celestial Stage, they wouldn't have been a match for this middle-aged man.

The combination of Mo Junchen's power with the first-rate Hell King's Prison Suppression Physique made him invincible among people at his same stage.

Now, the Guardians' stage levels had dropped so the disparity between them and Mo Junchen had become even greater. This fight couldn't be considered the same as an ordinary fight between people at the Golden Celestial Stage.

The Guardians understood that they couldn't save the Guardian who was being pestered by the enemy. If they tried to help him, no one would manage to get out.

This was why they chose to continue escaping by taking advantage of Mo Junchen's confrontation with the other Guardian. These four Guardians took the remaining talented youths with them and continued flying onward on different paths. They separated and rushed toward the entrance.

"I'm the Exploding Heavens Faction's First Guardian, and if you want to pass by me you must first try to defeat my Taoist Art," Mo Junchen snorted as he spoke to them coldly and trampled the ground with his foot.

THUMP!

As a muffled noise echoed out, the ground split open.

The innumerable weapons attacking the first Guardian split up, and a large number of phantom images joined them. Every weapon was duplicated completely, and those weapons instantly flew toward the escaping Guardians.

As the illusory weapons streaked across the sky, they gradually took on a tangible form and a murderous aura permeated the entire region.

This was Mo Junchen's Taoist Path. He could fuse his artifact-crafting techniques with his Magic Art, and he could form many weapons with a simple gesture. This art was quite powerful, and those weapons became tougher and sharper thanks to Mo Junchen's physique stage.

It could be said in a sense that the weapons were his Taoist Path.

"Guardian Mo, you are too slow. You should quickly dispose of them," Xu Que's voice echoed out.

He was just watching this show and didn't plan to participate in it. After all, if Mo Junchen couldn't dispose of even these few people, then he was really too useless.

"I got it!" Mo Junchen replied as a wave of his aura emanated from his eyes.

The next moment, he closed his eyes and put his palm in the space between his brows. He started mumbling, "The Hell King suppresses the prison, and all ghosts have to serve him. I will still hold supremacy even in the face of Heaven's divine power."

BANG!

As his voice echoed, an airwave instantly flew out of his body.

Mo Junchen's long black hair started growing quickly out of his head crazily like a bean seedling that had germinated. In the twinkling of an eye, his hair reached the ground and all his skin contracted before turning into cooper and his bones became iron. They were filled with an explosive force.

"F*ck! Is Guardian Mo a Super Sayan? Why's he so outstanding?" Xu Que cried out in alarm watching this.

"So you didn't think I was so amazing when I had the Hell King's Prison Suppression Physique in the past?"

"Just look at your flamboyant hairstyle."

SWOOSH!

At this moment, Mo Junchen had already turned into a light beam that was diving fast.

His body had already gotten copper skin and iron bones. His force and speed had increased by several folds, and it still seemed to people that he wasn't using his whole power.

The first Guardian had already been blocked by innumerable weapons a while ago, and he couldn't find a way to retreat. He was stranded along with two of the talented youths.

In the twinkling of an eye, Mo Junchen rushed toward him, taking out a large hammer from his storage ring. He raised it high, and it shone with lightning radiance. Unexpectedly, it was a hammer of the Celestial Artifact grade.

"F*ck! Guardian Mo has hidden it well. He has unexpectedly refined this hammer and turned it into his Soulbound Weapon. Moreover, it's still at the Celestial Artifact grade," Duan Jiude cried out. He was quite envious and would have liked it for himself.

"Hee, hee, the reason that he hid it for so long and didn't dare to take it out is that he was afraid that we would swindle it out of him," Xu Que said with a smile.

BANG!

Meanwhile, Mo Junchen had already raised his heavy hammer and waved it down as if he was about to hit iron. He waved it toward the Guardian.

This was a technique that allowed one to forge ironware at distance, but Mo Junchen used it to kill people. The reason why he had managed to achieve it was that the potential of the Hell King's Prison Suppression Physique had been completely realized, so his speed and power had achieved a great upgrade.

This was why Mo Junchen didn't have to approach the Guardian, and he struck him with his hammer from a distance. A SLAMMING noise could be heard, and it echoed out three times in succession. The Guardian and the two talented youths exploded on the spot and turned into three clouds of blood fog that scattered with the wind.

This sight dumbfounded the Divine Farmer Clan's other four Guardians and remaining talented youths. Even Yi Fang was dumbstruck. They couldn't believe what they were seeing.

It was an ordinary strike for forging ironware at a distance, the most basic technique in the artifact craftsmanship world. How could it be used like this to kill people?

"This…this, how was this possible?"

SWOOSH!

All of a sudden, the wind started whistling.

Mo Junchen raised his hammer again and was about to attack his next target.

"Wait, please spare them," Duan Jiude shouted suddenly and stopped Mo Junchen.

"What's the matter?" Mo Junchen was taken aback and confused.

Duan Jiude chuckled and pointed toward Yi Fang and his companions before he replied, "You should first hammer their little balls before you hit their big heads. Ha, ha, ha."
