Chapter 683: Just Tremble, Earthians!

A familiar howl echoed in the underground palace again.


The Taoist Body activated the collar. b.u.t.tface, who had turned himself into the Kylin Patriarch, lied down on his stomach.


However, Xu Que had figured out that although b.u.t.tface had changed his form and enhanced his strength, his personality had not changed. He was still good at bragging, but he was also still a cowardly dog deep in his heart.


“It hurts!” he howled. “Brother Que, brother Que, please let me go!” b.u.t.tface admitted his defeat, patting the floor.


“Eh? You’ve changed back? Are you going to be arrogant? Are you going to act tough?” Xu Que asked with a smile.


b.u.t.tface shook his head with a long face. “No, I will stop acting tough. d.a.m.n! After eating the blood essences, I still couldn’t defeat you!”


After that, light glowed from his body and a red halo gushed out. Then, his body shrank quickly and his glossy black-and-white fur reappeared with his stupid dog head. It seemed he was just a large version of a Husky.


“Blood essences? What happened?” Xu Que was surprised by b.u.t.tface’s reply.


b.u.t.tface was quite proud a mean smile crossed his face. “When I entered this area, I found a sacrificial altar with ten drops of Kylin Blood Essences. It felt like my blood had some kind of connection with the blood essences, so I gulped all of them down. I didn’t expect them to store perfectly in my Dantian. Therefore, I chose to explode one blood essence. Then, my form was changed.”


b.u.t.tface laughed in satisfaction. “The funniest part is that when Duan Jiude saw my majestic form, he was so scared that he collapsed.”


“So, it seems like you can regain the form of your previous life by activating the blood essence, right?” Xu Que asked curiously.


b.u.t.tface shook his head in confusion. “I don’t know either. Anyway, after exploding one drop of the blood essence, I could regain the form and strength from my fifth life. It’s a pity that the time duration was a bit short. Wait! No, it seems some strength remained in my body!”


Xu Que nodded for he had summarized the situation well.


Now the only thing he could confirm was that b.u.t.tface had been the Kylin Patriarch during his fifth life—he had established the Mighty Sect.


“Wait! It appears I really am the Kylin Patriarch, right? Holy sh*t!” b.u.t.tface exclaimed when he finally figured it out.


Xu Que rolled his eyes and shook his head. After all, the stupidity of b.u.t.tface was hardly news to him.


Liu Jingning was shocked. Then, she was amused by b.u.t.tface’s foolishness and started to smirk.


“b.u.t.tface, besides this, could you remember something useful?” Xu Que wanted to know more details. b.u.t.tface’s memory was like an unexplored vault. Anything he remembered could be a great opportunity.


However, b.u.t.tface shook his head. “I can’t remember anything. But one thing I am quite sure of is that the Spiritual Qi in this underground palace is very intense, which is quite suitable for your secluded cultivation. However, the density of Spiritual Qi in this area is a little bit too high–your body may explode because you can’t absorb so much Spiritual Qi!”


“The Spiritual Qi . . . ” Xu Que trailed off as he realized.


After entering the underground palace, he found the Spiritual Qi so magnificent that it was almost as intensive as the Spiritual Qi in the elixir plantation of the Zi Xia Fairy s.h.i.+ Qingxuan. Therefore, this underground palace was really an ideal place for secluded cultivation.


As for his body possibly exploding because of the over intensive Spiritual Qi, Xu Que was not worried about it. His current physique was strong enough to absorb as much Spiritual Qi he could!


“I’ve made up my mind to perform secluded cultivation in this area for two years! I will do my best to reach the Void Training Stage before the Mystery Land closes!” Xu Que said confidently. The intensive Spiritual Qi and the Spirit Stones he had collected could ensure he would reach the Void Training Stage within two years.


Hearing that, Liu Jingning and b.u.t.tface were stunned.


Reach the Void Training Stage in two years?


Are you kidding?


“Little Queque, don’t be so reckless! You can’t be nervous for success in cultivation!” Liu Jingning reminded him seriously.


Even though it was Xu Que’s re-cultivation, it would still be impossible for him to reach the Void Training Stage within two years. Liu Jingning did believe, however, that Xu Que could make full use of this opportunity to solidify his foundation and break all his bottlenecks firmly and steadily. In this way, Xu Que’s future achievements would be more remarkable.


b.u.t.tface also shook his head. “Little brat, I know your cultivation speed has been amazing. However, you just reached the Infant Transformation Stage when you destroyed your cultivation. How could you reach the Void Training Stage within two years? Don’t be silly!”


Xu Que spoke with a calm smile. “Apparently, you know nothing about my gift. As a rare genius, I could reach the Void Training Stage within six months if I didn’t want to solidify my foundation. I don’t want to do that because I am a man who is handsome and steady!”


What he said was true. He had five Celestial Spiritual Roots. Together with the amazing cultivation speed of the Ancient Five Elemental Arts, six months would be enough for him to reach the Void Training Stage if he only absorbed Spiritual Qi from the Spirit Stones he had.


But he knew that he had to perform cultivation on his own strength if he couldn’t acc.u.mulate experience by killing more powerhouses in the future. Therefore, he had to solidify his foundation.


Two years would definitely be long enough for Xu Que.


Liu Jingning still tried to persuade Xu Que. However, her efforts were in vain. She had to shake her head helplessly at last.


Xu Que didn’t waste his time. He took out millions of best-grade Spirit Stones and set up a Soul Gathering Array in the underground palace, which gathered up all the Spiritual Qi in an area covering tens of thousands of square miles.


After that, he flipped his finger to store a strand of Soul Strength in his Taoist Body. Then, he sat on the ground with his legs crossed and started his secluded cultivation!


Liu Jingning was shocked as Xu Que had set up such a big Soul Gathering Array, which was composed of best-grade Spirit Stones, in such a short time. The Spiritual Qi in the underground palace was extremely intensive.


After pondering a bit, she also sat beside Xu Que with her legs crossed. She decided to protect Xu Que from any accidents which might endanger him, and she also started her cultivation.


“Holy sh*t! Are you going to start a Paired Cultivation? I will leave you alone for it is too embarra.s.sing from me!” b.u.t.tface couldn’t sit still as he saw Xu Que and Liu Jingning start their cultivation.


After all, he was not a man–oh no. He was a dog who could not keep still.


Whoos.h.!.+


b.u.t.tface dashed out of the underground palace, and his howling could still vaguely be heard.


“Little De, why are you in a daze? Come here and kowtow to me now! d.a.m.n! Stop running! Get a footbath ready for your Patriarch now!”



Xu Que completely entered into his cultivation. This was his genuine cultivation after knowing his Taoist Connotation in advance.


When he gave a play of the Ancient Five Elemental Arts in his body, each breath of Spiritual Qi turned into scenes of the past in his brain like dreams. It seemed he was reviewing his life.


Memories in his past life on Earth displayed like a slideshow in his brain.


When his parents pa.s.sed away, he was only ten. After that, he lived with his younger sister. They suffered a lot and were looked down upon. At last, they managed to go to school with the occasional aid of their relatives and the community.


Xu Que was always an ace student in school. When he was twenty, he was admitted by the best university in Yanjing as the No. 1 student in the province where he was born. After that, he turned the campus belle of that university into his girlfriend.


It was a pity that she broke up with him in less than half a year. One week later, Xu Que was. .h.i.t by a speeding car on his way back to the university after finis.h.i.+ng the night-s.h.i.+ft of his part-time job. Then, he crossed over to this world!


He had nothing to worry about when he woke up in this world.


He was quite proud of his younger sister. When she was a freshman in her high school, she opened an online shop with her friend. They made a lot of money through the online businesses, which didn’t influence their school work. Therefore, she was more powerful than Xu Que in EQ and IQ.


Even Xu Que’s tuition and living expenses were paid by his younger sister.


Xu Que didn’t want to accept her offer until she left him a message. “Brother, you’ve taken care of me for so long, now it’s finally my turn to take care of you. Please don’t reject the money I offered for your tuition and living expenses, for it is my birthday wis.h.!.+”



At the thought of this, Xu Que opened his eyes abruptly and the secluded cultivation stopped.


“Feifei!” Xu Que shouted the name of his younger sister as if he had just woken from a nightmare.


He thought he had nothing to concern about and could forget everything that had happened on Earth. He could enjoy his life in the World of Cultivators.


However, during this cultivation, he discovered many problems.


Why had the school belle break up with him suddenly?


At that time, they loved each other dearly. She had suddenly and resolutely left him after saying “goodbye.”


Xu Que was confused and thought he had done something wrong. However, the school belle just ignored all his phone calls and short messages after that.


One week later, when he finally got time to ask her the detailed reason, he was killed in a traffic accident.


As an interested party, Xu Que was quite confused and didn’t know what happened. He thought the school belle broke up with him because he did something wrong. He thought he would get her back by coaxing her.


Now, as an onlooker, he realized something was wrong after reviewing his memories.


Why did the school belle change her att.i.tude abruptly?


Why was he killed by a car when he was walking along a s.p.a.cious street?


The most critical point of this issue was his younger sister!


Xu Que remembered during the week he broke up with the school belle, his younger sister hadn’t contacted him. She didn’t even answer his phone calls, which was quite unusual.


His younger sister would normally call him three to four times a week, it had almost become habit. Xu Que hadn’t thought about it though because of the break up and his part time job.


Considering the car accident, Xu Que started to become more and more shocked and paranoid and broke cold sweat. His face also darkened.


He started to believe that his death had been arranged by someone deliberately, someone who might have also attacked his younger sister!


Who could that be?


Several fuzzy faces surfaced in his mind.


Some were rich boys who used to chase his younger sister with evil intentions.


Some were his rivals in love who also wanted to chase the school belle. Many of them were kids of influential officials.


It would be easy for these people to arrange an “accidental” death for him with their background and resources!


But now, Xu Que could only figure out something was wrong–he couldn’t find out who the prime culprit was.


“Little Queque, what happened?” Liu Jingning, who was sitting beside him, opened her beautiful eyes and looked at Xu Que with concern.


Xu Que let out a sigh of relief and shook his head slightly. “Nothing, just some old memories!”


He knew clearly that the Taoist Connotation had been added to his cultivation!


The other cultivators started to use their Taoist Connotation when they reached the Infant Transformation Stage or the Void Training Stage. He started to cultivate with his Taoist Connotation from zero.


The Tao he pursued was to do whatever he wanted and act tough!


Remembering what had happened before was just the first step of the Taoist Connotation. Anything which could disturb him would interrupt his cultivation.


However, Xu Que’s self control was extremely powerful now!


After letting out a solid breath, Xu Que had calmed down from all the annoyances of his past life. No matter how anxious he was, he could do nothing now. It was useless to overthink that!


He could return to the Earth once he was powerful enough to obtain the s.p.a.ce Breaking Spell. After that, he could find out the truth and kill those evil guys.


“Are you all right?” Liu Jingning asked with concern. Her eyes were full of kindness and melancholy.


“It’s okay! I’ve reached the summit of the Golden Core Stage!” Xu Que grinned.


“En, two months have pa.s.sed. Your cultivation speed is really amazing. Are you sure there is no risk?”


Xu Que smiled and his eyes were full of confidence. “I dare say n.o.body in this world could have a more solid foundation than mine. This time my Tao and my cultivation are perfect!”


He could sense his current strength was incredibly powerful.


He used to be able to kill a cultivator at the Original Infant Stage when he was at the Golden Core Stage because he had those powerful magic arts and the a.s.sistance of the People Killing Book and the People Killing Sword.


Now, as a cultivator at the Golden Core Stage, he felt he could punch a cultivator at the Original Infant Stage to death. He could kill cultivators who were one stage higher than him easily!


With the a.s.sistance of the People Killing Book and the People Killing Sword, he could even fight against cultivators at Level One of the Infant Transformation Stage! His strength was absolutely unprecedented in the World of Cultivators!


“Don’t worry, I’m okay! I will continue my cultivation!” He closed his eyes and entered the status of cultivation again!


This time, he calmed down completely as he made a decision.


Once he finished his secluded cultivation, he would save Jiang Hongyan. Then, he would plan his return to the Earth.


After all, the s.p.a.ce Breaking Spell and its refinery method were not exclusive to the System.


Since Duan Jiude knew the s.p.a.ce Breaking Spell, it meant that it existed in this world. If he could find the refinery method in advance, he wouldn’t need to wait until he upgraded the System to Version 10.0. Plenty of time and Acting-Tough Points could be saved.


Just tremble, earthlings! Xu Que of the Exploding Heavens Faction will be back soon!
