This…how can this speed and power belong to someone at the Form Synthesis Stage?


All 37 Saint Palace powerhouses at the Calamity Stage were thrown out before they could react?


Such strength is difficult to achieve even at the Great Vehicle Stage!


What kind of monster is he?

The many powerhouses from the Imperial Palace trembled at the revelations and felt their scalps go numb. The dozens of female disciples from the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion were also full of awe, as they stared in disbelief and immense shock. At this moment, they seemed to understand finally. So this was why the young man was qualified to stand side by side with the Empress and could proudly proclaim that the Empress was his woman!


He was powerful and qualified enough to do that!

Wait, that killer spell….
Someone exclaimed suddenly. This call shifted everyone’s attention to the battle spell. One glance was enough to terrify them instantly!
The more than 30 powerful men from the Saint Palace, thrown into the battle spell by Xu Que, stood silent and expressionless within the formation. Then, like Luo Tianlin, their flesh and bones gradually were reduced to dust. They drifted with the wind and slowly fell to the ground.
For an instant, everyone held their breaths and stood rooted to the ground. The power of this battle spell was beyond their imagination!
Ding!
Congratulations to the host Xu Que for successfully acting tough. You have received 12,000 Acting Tough points!

Ding!
Congratulations to the host Xu Que for successfully killing a Calamity Stage powerhouse. You have received 60 million experience points!

Ding!
Congratulations to the host Xu Que for successfully killing a Calamity Stage powerhouse. You have received 60 million experience points!


Ding!
Congratulations to the host Xu Que for successfully advancing in level. You are currently at the fourth level of the Form Synthesis Stage!

The system prompts kept sounding in Xu Que’s mind!


Xu Que’s cultivation stage had risen again, but he paid it no mind. His face gradually became solemn as his eyebrows knitted into a frown.
More than 30 powerhouses died so quietly without any chance to resist. Wasn’t this battle spell too powerful? There must be something wrong! Hey, wait a minute. Something’s not right! Why were four people missing?
Xu Que suddenly realized that he had only received 33 System prompts of experience acquisition. However, he had unmistakably thrown in 37 people! Did that mean that there were four who were still alive?
Xu Que’s eyes brightened a little as if he had grasped a thought.
Swoosh!
Suddenly, he swept his eyes around, and his gaze fell directly on Wei Zixun.
Wei Zixun had not yet regained his composure. Meeting Xu Que’s stern gaze, he cried out,
Fellow cultivator, I forgive you!


…..

The whole area fell silent again. Everyone was utterly speechless.
You’re the only one left from the Saint Palace that he hasn’t killed. How is it that you forgive him?


Wow, Young Master Wei, you swallowed great humiliation while bearing a heavy load. What on earth are you planning?

Ha, ha!
At this time, Xu Que suddenly laughed and looked away from Wei Zixun. He peered behind Jiang Hongyan, at the dozens of prominent Imperial Palace followers.

Holy crap!

Many Imperial Palace powerhouses paled and trembled all over, crying out hastily,
You… why are you looking at us? We won’t forgive you like Young Master Wei!


What a coincidence, I don’t need your forgiveness either!
Xu Que laughed and walked smugly forward.
At this point, even a fool could see that Xu Que’s strength was far superior to an average cultivator of the Form Synthesis Stage. He was capable of fighting with a Great Vehicle Stage cultivator. As they watched him approach them, step by step, the many Imperial Palace powerhouses began to panic.

You…stop right there! What are you trying to do?


Don’t come over, fellow cultivator. Let’s talk this out!


Holy Senior, do something about him please!

The powerhouses hailing from the Imperial Palace began to retreat and called out to Jiang Hongyan for help. Jiang Hongyan smiled slightly. She was graceful but ignored their pleas. No matter what Xu Que wanted to do, she would not object. Such was her position because she knows very well that she is now Jiang Hongyan, not the Empress of her past life!



All right, why are you guys scared? I didn’t say I’d throw you in! I can crack this spell, just that if we’re carrying on, it’s your turn to walk in front!
 Xu Que said with a laugh and stopped advancing.
All of them were staggered by his words.
Are they continuing?
Wait, no, did he say…that the spell could be cracked?

How is that possible?


This spell can instantly detain and decompose a Cultivator. Even the strongest men at the peak of the Crossing Calamity Stage have no chance to resist. How could you possibly break it?

The powerhouses from the Imperial Palace were surprised.
Xu Que smiled and shook his head,
You guys truly believed that this spell was that powerful? If It had the power to instantly erase a cultivator at the peak of the Crossing Calamity Stage, how did the Zhang Tiandao enter?


Eh?

People realized the inconsistency of Xu Que’s words.


That’s right. Zhang Tiandao was only at the Crossing Calamity Stage back then. How did he get through this battle spell?
Moreover, the power of this battle seemed to be too strong. An entity at the peak of the Crossing Calamity Stage was already dominant. For someone like that to directly turn into dust upon entering, wasn’t that too exaggerated?

First of all, I can confirm that not all the people who just entered are dead! Secondly, this battle spell is just an illusion!
Xu Que smiled. He took out a long rope and flicked it suddenly!
With a crack, Xu Que tossed one end of the rope into the formation Array. The rope gradually desertified in everyone’s eyes and turned into a trail of dust. Suddenly, Xu Que pulled the end of the rope he was holding in one swift motion. To everyone’s surprise, he was able to pull back the disintegrated end of the cable, revealing a whole, intact rope.

Huh? This…what’s going on?


This is odd! It was clear that the rope had turned to ashes. How could it suddenly become whole again?


Illusory Array? Could it be that what we saw was just an illusion?

The crowd stirred, unsettled and confused.
Xu Que nodded,
Yes, what we see is not necessarily true. However, I believe that this kind of Array can still be dangerous. As you can see, the group that just entered never came out, and I guess they are gone for good. Therefore, I will make a deal with you guys!


What deal?
Asked many of the Imperial Palace powerhouses.
Xu Que smirked.
I’ll be responsible for breaking this battle spell. However, from here on, all of you must walk before me.

Everyone from the Imperial Palace frowned in disagreement.
Xu Que was trying to make them his shield. Even if he could break this battle spell, what about the next one?

Fellow cultivator, with so many cultivators here, isn’t it too wasteful to use us as cover?
said an influential Imperial Palace follower. As he said that, he looked at those from the Exquisite Beauty Pavilion and the group of scattered practitioners. It was a hint that Xu Que could join hands with them and use those people as cover instead.
Xu Que’s eyes narrowed and he laughed,
No, I want you guys to be the cover! Moreover, it’s not like you have a choice either!

Those from the Imperial Palace looked dark and angry at his words. Xu Que was right; they had no choice at all. Should they refuse, Xu Que would throw them into the spell, delivering a brutal end worse than being a shield. At least if they worked as a cover, there might be a glimmer of hope for survival. If Xu Que threw them into the illusory spell, it was just a matter of time before they died!

My fellow cultivator, why are you doing this?


Are you trying to force us to fight with you to the death?


Don’t forget that we belong to the Imperial Palace. If you do this, I’m afraid you won’t be able to bear the consequences that follow once you leave the Road of Heavenly Ascension!

The Imperial Palace powerhouses immediately opened their mouths, trying to persuade Xu Que.
Xu Que raised his eyebrows.
It’s nothing actually. The main reason that I wanted to do this was to ask you guys a question!

Question?
The Imperial Palace powerhouses were stupefied,
What do you want to ask, fellow cultivator?

Xu Que nodded.
To be honest, I just wanted to ask if you’re angry that I made you my shield? Are you angry, are you angry? I want to know if you’re angry? Ha, ha, all is good if you’re angry! Okay, now move along, everybody!
