Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Boom!
It seemed Xu Que had regained his mighty power and created the Heavenly Thunder Seal again!
The upgrade progress of the seal had reached 95 percent, which was very close to the consummation!
The Heavenly Thunder Seal was converging again. The Spiritual Qi in the Celestial Burial Valley pumped out at an exaggerated rate. From a distance, it looked like a river of Spiritual Qi being pumped out. The Spiritual Qi was intertwining with the thunder power in the air before being turned into a seal with engraved dragon and elephant.
The Heavenly Thunder Seal, which was close to its consummation, was twice as powerful as before. It seemed to be more and more substantial.
Especially the engraved dragon and elephant covered with flowing blue thunder. Lightning flashed around and gave off heavenly power like the heavenly retribution hanging over the remaining 200,000-plus celestial soldiers.
“Pay it back!” those celestial soldiers shouted again. It seemed they were not intelligent and could only repeat those words.
“You may collect your debt in h.e.l.l!” Xu Que didn’t want to waste time anymore. He controlled the Heavenly Thunder Seal with his hands and smashed it down directly.
Rumble!
With a big bang, the last 200,000-plus celestial soldiers exploded and turned into a cloud of dazzling silver lightning gus.h.i.+ng toward Xu Que.
In the System interface, the cultivation progress of the Heavenly Thunder Seal was enhanced to 100 percent in the blink of an eye. Now it had reached its consummation!
After that, crackling sounds came from Xu Que’s body. His bones filled with silver dots of light and his body was covered by a dazzling silver light that looked like an invulnerable silver skin!
Whoos.h.!.+
He opened his s.h.i.+ning eyes and several small lightning bolts flashed above them. Now he could see things 50 kilometers away clearly. When he became stronger, his eyes became more powerful than telescopes.
Xu Que really wanted to roar wildly. This time he had gained a lot. Both his physique and the Heavenly Thunder Seal had been upgraded.
More importantly, he had won over 10,000 Acting Tough Points, which was quite rewarding.
However, he controlled his mood and pretended to be angry; then, he looked down at the crowd with intense murderous intent.
Most of the people beneath him had stopped fighting. Now all the storage rings were divided up. The powerhouses obtained most of the storage rings. However, these guys were still not satisfied. They were looking at each other as if they would kill and rob their opponents at any time.
“Guys, how about returning the storage rings to me?” Xu Que asked. “I promise to accept everything you request!”
His proposal was ignored.
Some Holy Sons and Holy Virgins even sneered. You want us to return the storage rings to you? Keep dreaming!
Xu Que looked at Qin Ji and folded his hands. “Miss Qin of the Illusionary Flower & Moon Sect, do you remember me? Please return the storage ring to me. You will get a fountain-like return of generosity from me!”
Qin Ji smiled wryly and angrily shook her head. “You caused big trouble in my Bright Moon Hotel and ruined two spells. Now it is perfectly logical and reasonable for me to take a storage ring from you!”
“What you said is reasonable, but don’t you really want my fountain-like return of generosity in the future?” Xu Que asked.
Qin Ji frowned for she felt something was wrong with Xu Que’s words. However, she just ignored Xu Que’s question and said nothing.
“Little brat, are you crazy?” b.u.t.tface said. “They’ve grabbed the rings! Why do you ask they return them?”
b.u.t.tface was too stupid to figure out Xu Que’s plan. He only knew those who had obtained the rings would suffer, but he didn’t understand why Xu Que wanted to get the rings back.
Xu Que shook his head and said, “These storage rings are too dangerous. If they take the rings away, the consequence will be disastrous!”
After saying that, he turned to the cultivators and spoke, his face filled with righteousness. “Guys, I am not kidding. Please return the storage rings to me. Please!”
“Heh!”
Many people started to sneer at him.
Return the rings to you?
Why are you so innocent?
Why should we return the things we robbed to you?
“My young friend, this world doesn’t suit you!” An old man shook his head, feeling that Xu Que’s words were very naive.
“Just ignore him. He is not qualified to get these things!” Dong Genji smiled coldly and ignored Xu Que’s request. Then, he distributed the storage rings to the geniuses of the Carefree Building and prepared to break the restrictive barrier and check the things inside.
Seeing that, people of the Jiang Family and other big families and sect stepped back vigilantly to keep a safe distance. They planned to check the things inside the rings before deciding whether they should continue killing others.
They couldn’t hold back their curiosity anymore. The more eager Xu Que wanted to get back the rings, the more it seemed to confirm there were extraordinary items inside.
Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+
All at once, many Soul Strengths reached out, and it almost formed a giant Soul Barrier. Then, they started to probe the contents of the storage rings.
Seeing that, Xu Que’s face fell and he yelled, “Stop! Don’t open them!”
Again, his yelling was ignored. After sensing the weak restrictive barrier on the storage rings, many people started to smile coldly. The next moment, they concentrated their Soul Strength and prepared to break the barrier forcibly.
“Please! Don’t open them!” Xu Que shouted again and flew into the sky.
However, most people were focused on the storage rings. n.o.body noticed Xu Que’s movement,
With outstanding Soul Strength, Dong Genji decided to break over a dozen storage rings at once.
Crack!
Instantly, numerous crisp squishes came out. The restrictive barriers of the storage rings started to crack, which was unexpectedly easy.
Now Dong Genji openly expressed more contempt for Xu Que. Although Xu Que had shown some powerful strength, his Soul Strength was weak at the level of the Infant Transformation Stage. Dong Genji thought this reflected the true strength of Xu Que.
It was well-known in the World of Cultivators that those who chose to strengthen physique always had weak Soul Strength. After all, no one would waste time and energy cultivating physique and Soul Strength at the same time!
“It’s done!”
At this moment, Dong Genji concentrated his Soul Strength to impact the restrictive barriers of the storage rings for the second time. The barriers were crushed instantly and his face started to be beamed with delight.
However, a moment later, he was directly covered by an extremely horrible momentum as well as the intense aura of upset and danger.
“No!” Dong Genji looked horrified as he realized something. He moved as if to throw the storage rings away.
It was too late.
When the restrictive barriers of the storage rings broke, the violent three-color fire lotuses gushed out crazily.
Boom!
All at once, over a dozen three-color fire lotuses in the storage rings exploded. The fiery violent energy directly hit Dong Genji’s face.
“Sh*t! It’s a trap!”
“Don’t open the storage rings!”
Almost at the same time, everyone else also started to fearfully cry out.
The powerhouses of the Jiang Family, as well as the other big families and sects, had opened the storage rings. When they sensed something was wrong, they also wanted to throw the rings away. However, they were also too slow.
The reason that Xu Que threw the fire lotuses into the storage rings at the critical explosion time was to minimize these guys’ time for response.
He wanted the fire lotuses to explode immediately when the storage rings opened.
Boom! Boom! Rumble–!
Instantly, dozens of earth-shaking explosions occurred in the sea of black flames.
The ground shook violently. Countless mountains collapsed on the spot. Horrible fiery airwaves rose skyward and created many enormous mushroom clouds like the explosions of atomic bombs.
Everyone was wrapped by the three-color flames. Numerous powerhouses at the Infant Transformation State evaporated into mists of blood.
“No—!” Dong Genji’s gut-wrenching cry echoed between the sky and earth as if he were suffering terrible pain.
“Little beast, how dare you set us up? Ah—!” Jiang Yushu also yelled angrily in the explosion. He almost lost his mind and his yelling was very frightening.
Whoos.h.!.+
Xu Que descended slowly from the sky. His eyes narrowed in a cruel smile. “Why are you so despicable? I told you those rings were dangerous. I even begged you not to open them. But you insisted on opening them. What can I do? I am also quite desperate! Ha-ha-ha, are you angry? Are you angry? I just want to know . . . ” As he spoke, Xu Que raised up a mountainous Heavenly Thunder Seal and smashed it down abruptly. He loudly shouted, “I just want to know: are you angry?”
