At this rate, I only need another hour, and I can upgrade successfully.

Xu Que’s heartbeat sped up.
He was looking forward to what kind of transformations there would be when the System was upgraded to version 11.0.
Overall, everything before version 10.0 was considered a first-generation System. But once he entered version 11.0, the System would enter second-generation mode.
There would be many different kinds of changes. Xu Que was not exactly clear about what they would be, but he was very much looking forward to it.


Thinking of the beginning of this journey, before he’d entered the Half-Celestial Stage, the benefits that the System had brought him were so great that he’d emerged victorious all the time.
But later, as the speed of his cultivation stage upgrades accelerated, the System’s functions had actually begun to fail to keep up. Coupled with Xu Que’s pursuit of strengthening his body, he’d gradually left the System behind. Then, however, he’d realized that he was lacking in strength in the face of many strong opponents with high cultivation stages.
In fact, his choices hadn’t been wrong. If he hadn’t encountered the Celestial Kings who were born in the era of the Patriarchs, he would have thought that it was enough to aspire to the throne of the entire Heaven Continent by virtue of his own strengths.
But now he could not. Countless Ancestral Celestial Kings had entered the world. Also, there was the Celestial Cloud Continent outside the Heaven Continent where powerful beings were very prevalent. Knowing about the existence of valiant Celestial Primes and Celestial Emperors, Xu Que felt really powerless.
Therefore, he had to turn on the System again and let the System upgrade to version 11.0, so he could enter the second phase of his journey.
Now, in the face of the threat of three Celestial Kings, Xu Que was left with only two options. Either he could allow Zixia Fairy to summon her Taoist Body and let her make a move to resolve this crisis, or he could make a bet relying on fate, and hope that this version 11.0 of the System would lead to a powerful counterattack.
If he were being reasonable, the former option was the safest.
But Xu Que didn’t want to take the safe option, partly because he never liked to take the safe option, but also because the existence of the System made him feel that he wasn’t at the end of his rope.
Duan Jiude had disclosed to him that Zixia Fairy was not at her true strength right now, and that she hadn’t been included in the migration that the Celestial Sect had undertaken that year. Zixia Fairy was also left behind because of her Taoist Body. She’d spent long years alone in the ruins of the Celestial Sect and had endured endless cycles of loneliness for countless years. And yet she was always unwilling to merge her Taoist Body.
Obviously, the path that she’d cultivated was different from other people’s. She’d let her Taoist Body grow strong, and she’d also strengthened her own body so that when the Taoist Body and her own body had fully completed the cultivation, the two would become one and merge together sucessfully. When the conditions were right, success would follow naturally. She would be able to attain her goal in one go and achieve the Celestial Emperor stage.


If she’d tried to complete the integration ahead of time, all of her previous efforts would go down the drain. Based on Zixia Fairy’s current strength, a merger with the Taoist Body would only allow her to become a Celestial Prime at the most, which was a far distance from becoming a Celestial Emperor.
Was it necessary to make such a big sacrifice in order to deal with the three Celestial Kings?
It wasn’t worth it!
Xu Que would rather take the risk and stake it all on the System than to see Zixia Fairy’s countless years of hard work to have been all in vain. Even if Zixia Fairy was very firm in showing that she didn’t care, Xu Que was not willing to have her make that sacrifice.

Xuan’er, you find a way to break the seal. I have to take of this war myself,
Xu Que said, as he looked at Zixia Fairy with a calm expression.

Why?
Zixia Fairy frowned a little bit, not really able to understand.
In her view, she had made a decision and was willing to make such a sacrifice. A Celestial Emperor cultivation stage could not be compared to the one joker who was always on her mind, namely Xu Que.
She didn’t understand why Xu Que was unwilling to accept her sacrifice.

Okay, if I tell you why, will you be good and do what you’re told? Will you listen to me?
Xu Que’s face revealed his trademark smirk as he asked her this question.

Yes.
Zixia Fairy nodded imperceptibly.



Well then, be good and listen. Don’t ask so many questions and do as I say.
Xu Que patted her on the head and said with a smile. Then he walked forward.
Zixia Fairy was suddenly stumped. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she had no idea what to say.
Then, Xu Que used soundless communication and spoke next to her ear again,
Believe me, Xuan’er. It’s not worth it for you to make such a huge sacrifice. Otherwise, even if I had won, I’d also feel very upset. I, Xu Que, would never do anything where I would take such a loss. Even if it’s a gamble with my life, I also want to fight.

When Zixia Fairy heard his words, she had to take back those words that she hadn’t said.
Looking at Xu Que’s figure marching forward, she nodded slightly and chose to listen to him.
Mysteriously, Xu Que’s heart was filled with self-confidence.
This self-confidence came from his trust in the System.
He’d always felt that the second stage of the System would be different. It would bring him more extraordinary power, and he believed in that instinct.

System, ah System, don’t let me down. Although I made the gamble randomly this time and am not certain, you’ve given everything to me from the beginning. Now I will put all my faith in you.

Xu Que looked at the System interface in front of him, watched the slow advancement of the upgrade progress bar, and sighed to himself.


But very soon, the corners of his mouth slightly raised to reveal a smile as he said,
But well, well, hee, hee, hee, even if I’d made the wrong bet, I wouldn’t lose everything. After all, I still have a enormous killing device that I haven’t let out yet. These people better not provoke me, and that includes you, System.

At the thought of this, Xu Que suddenly raised his head. His eyes shone with a ferocity and the corners of his mouth revealed a cold smile.
He raised his hand as he faced the three Celestial Kings from the Sage Sect and Heaven Palace Academy. He hooked his pinky finger at them and said,
Come, I, the Act-Tough Saint will play with you three today and see who will manage to live in the end!

CRASH!
There was an instant uproar among the onlookers. Everyone stared and looked stunned.

Xu Que was so brash that he’d even dared to be so provocative in the face of three Celestial Kings and wouldn’t let the Celestial King woman make a move?


What was he going to do?


With the strength of a Disbanded Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven, was he able to fight three Celestial Kings alone?

He can’t still summon a Heavenly Tribulation, can he?


That’s impossible. Didn’t the Patriarchs of the Sage Sect say that? He’d already crossed the Tribulations in Tian Sha City. There can’t be any reason that he can continue to cross the Tribulations so soon again.




I don’t think it’s possible either.


So where did his confidence come from? How dare he declare war on the three Celestial Kings?

Many people frowned and looked confused.
Even Jiang Hongyan, Liu Jingning, Mo Junchen, and the others looked grim at the moment.
Xu Que didn’t say anything, but his actions had already made everything clear.
This guy wanted to resolve this matter by himself, and he didn’t want them to step in. Even if they had gotten involved, it probably wouldn’t help.

It looks like Brother Que is going to make a move for real,
Buttface muttered.

Hey, rest assured, this boy wouldn’t dare to act like this if he didn’t have something in his back pocket. I, the old man, made a divination just now, and the hexagram’s results were odd. All the copper money stood up, dmn!
Duan Jiude scratched his head and said.

Fck, that means it can’t be divined.
Buttface stared open-mouthed and wide-eyed.

You know sht. It wouldn’t be like this if it couldn’t be divined. Instead, this symbolizes that whatever happens next is between inauspicious and auspicious. It’s best that we don’t intervene. We just need to observe for the timing.
Duan Jiude tried to explain.
BANG!
Li Xuanqi had already taken a step and descended from the air. He fixed his eyes coldly on Xu Que.

Xu Que, your father deceived my Heaven Palace Academy and killed countless of my Academy’s teachers and students as well. You should pay this debt on his behalf,
Li Xuanqi said in a loud voice.

Oh, I’m not paying you sht.
Xu Que sneered at him.

You’re asking for death!
Li Xuanqi immediately snorted and directly charged forward at Xu Que.
Without any more nonsense, he chose to strike right away and wanted to kill Xu Que.
With sinister smiles on their faces, the two Celestial Kings of the Sage Sect coolly watched from the sidelines.
Even if they’d already heard the story of what Xu Que had done in Tian Sha City, they were still full of confidence and didn’t think that there would be any miracles happening for Xu Que since he didn’t have any Heavenly Tribulations.
In fact, that was exactly what happened.
When Li Xuanqi appeared in front of Xu Que, Xu Que was unable to even react in time.
In terms of strength, he was really not as good as a Celestial King.
Whether it was speed or strength, the gap between them was just too great.
Between the Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven to the Celestial King, there was an insurmountable gap, not to mention that Xu Que was only a Disbanded Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven.
BOOM!
Following a loud noise, Li Xuanqi had not yet fully moved to strike Xu Que. By relying only on a powerful pressure of overwhelming anger, he smacked down heavily on Xu Que’s body like a huge mountain.
Xu Que’s entire person fell back several times from the shock, and he looked a little pale.

So, it’s true! If you hadn’t been helped by a Heavenly Tribulation, you would’ve already died in Tian Sha City.
Li Xuanqi regarded the scene and smiled coldly.
The two Celestial Kings of the Sage Sect looked as if they’d expected this, and the smirks on their faces became more intense.

Are you sure?
Xu Que slightly narrowed his eyes and laughed as he raised his hand.
In the sunlight, there seemed to be a few small strands of silk threads within his five fingers which were crystal clear and actually connected with a few storage rings.
The arrangement of those storage rings was rather clever. Every single one of them had fallen on the side of Li Xuanqi, forming a simple, small Kill Array.

Oh no!
Li Xuanqi seemed to realize something. His face immediately changed, and he tried to withdraw from his original place.
However, those fine strands of silk thread in Xu Que’s hand suddenly burned brightly and gave off a brilliant glow.
BOOM!!
Amid a deafening noise, the storage rings on the side of Li Xuanqi’s body instantly exploded.
A burst of dazzling Fiery Lotuses surged out of the storage rings.
Three-Color Fiery Lotus, Six-Color Fiery Lotus, and finally a Nine-Color Fiery Lotus, one blossom after another was detonated!
With the sky in a sea of flames, the brilliant glow and flaming hot temperatures engulfed Li Xuanqi completely in an instant.

Buttface, Duan Jiude, get him, beat him to death without mercy!

Almost at the same time, Xu Que growled and directly rushed up with the Tough-Acting King’s Purple-Gold Rod held in his hand!
