At that instant, everyone was stunned with confused looks on their faces . It was not that Xu Que's questions were too weird . It was that all of his questions felt like he was just fooling around .
What do you mean that you don't know where this place is? How then did you arrive here?
What do you mean that you don't know what the Blood Coffin is? Why the heck then are you robbing it?
Most important, how could you not know if you are good looking or not?
Everyone looked at one another blankly, unsure on how they should answer Xu Que . Could it be that he was tricking them?
"Yo, no answers? Wow, I'm impressed with your courage . Your attitude that you would rather die than surrender is not bad! I'll grant your wishes and send you guys off to the afterlife then!"
Xu Que shook his head and smiled, raising the Dark Heavenly Sword over his head .
Everyone paled when they saw him doing that .
One of them quickly answered, "Master, this is the First Realm of Taijin Continent!"
Someone else quickly followed, "Master, the Blood Coffin appears once every 500 years randomly somewhere around the First Realm . Every Blood Coffin could crystallize five sets of Refined Moon Keys, which are the keys to enter the Refined Moon Palace!"
Two crucial questions had been answered at once . The others began to panic when they realized that they did not have any questions left to answer .
One of the women shouted, "Master, you are very handsome . I mean it!"
Another person moved fast and brought out a Cultivation Skill Manual . He held it up to Xu Que respectfully, "Master, this is my Cultivation Skill Manual . Please take a look!"
Skill Manual?
Everyone's eyes brightened and they all began to do the same .
"Master, this is my Cultivation Skill Manual . Please accept it!"
"Master, mine is better . It is of the mid-tier Bronze Grade!"
"Master, don't listen to him! The one he has is rubbish . Mine is top-tier Bronze Grade!"
Many took out their skill manuals . They were scrolls made of metal, with colorful lights embedded in them . They looked quite high-tech .
"Hmph, you cowardly imbeciles!" A loud voice suddenly rang out .
Everyone paused for a moment and turned around blankly .
"Is that Mo Mingyuan?"
"What . . . what is he trying to do? Is he going to resist to the death?"
"The only result that could come out of that is death! Why would he do that?"
Everyone's hearts were filled with shock .
Xu Que narrowed his eyes and swept his gaze toward Mo Mingyuan . Mo Mingyuan clenched his teeth and stood up with great effort, reaching into his chest pocket . The next moment, with a clear "crash", multiple scrolls fell out of his clothes . Mo Mingyuan put his hands out and said determinedly, "Master, I present to you five high-tier Bronze Grade Skill Manuals and two low-tier Silver Grade Skill Manuals . It's not that I'm afraid to die, but instead I did this because my respect for you is like the never-ending river that flows on forever!"
"Crap!" Everyone winced at once and could hardly hold themselves back from scolding that jerk .
Screw him, is he still human to do that?
"Oh? You look up to me? Then you're blowin . . . no, you're quite ballsy, eh? You've got good eyes!" Xu Que said with a smile while staring at Mo Mingyuan mischievously .
Mo Mingyuan trembled a little quickly laughed humbly, "You flatter me, Master!"
"All right . Since everyone is so cooperative, all of you may take your leave!"
Everyone heaved sighs of relief, having escaped a close shave . They all yelled, "Thank you, Master!" All of them immediately ran away . Those who could run ran; those who couldn't run crawled, and those who couldn't crawl rolled .
In any case, they did not want to stay in this place for a second longer . This guy with an existence of such prowess chilled them from head to toe, and they wanted nothing more than to leave .
Xu Que watched them disappear into the distance and narrowed his eyes .
Swoosh!
Jiang Hongyan and her companions arrived from afar .
"Good lad, 666! I was right about you!" Buttface nodded, reassured like a wise old man .
However, no one spared him any attention . Xu Feifei looked directly at Xu Que and asked, "Brother, have you gotten anything from them? Where is this place?"
"Yeah . We are now at a place called the Taijin Continent, and this perimeter belongs to the First Realm . There are many other realms aside from this place . Although I have no idea how big this continent is, from the ages and abilities of the cultivators, I would say that the overall level of the cultivators here is almost comparable to the Xuanzhen Continent . However, they are nothing to be afraid of . "
From the answers the people had offered, he had more or less gotten a good grasp of the situation in this continent . He had scanned the Skill Manuals which the people had offered him with his Soul Strength . Their way of cultivation was very similar to the Physical Tempering of the cultivation world . However, due to the existence of an unusually powerful metal element in their Spiritual Qi, through cultivation, they could all form metallic physical armors based on the grade of the Skill Manual .
For example, a Bronze Grade Skill Manual would allow them to create a Bronze Armor .
Likewise, a Silver Grade Skill Manual would summon a Silver Armor . So on and so forth .
As for the unusually powerful metal element in their Spiritual Qi, it was called Taijin Qi in this continent and was the basis of how the people in this realm cultivated .
Xu Que shared everything he had gathered with his companions .
Buttface tilted his head in confusion and stood blankly at the side . His brains might not have been quite strong enough to process what Xu Que said . Jiang Hongyan and Xu Feifei got it though and asked for Xu Que's next plans .
Xu Que laughed . "What follows next is that we have to return to the cultivation world! However, before we return, I must make more Space-Breaking Spells . "
To make Space-Breaking Spells, first he had to update the System to version 10 . 0 and then redeem the recipe about making a Space-Breaking Spell . Xu Que's current points were sufficient to update the system to version 10 . 0 . The reason he had shelved it for so long was that he was in no hurry to update the System .
After all, Acting Tough points are like cash . Unless there is some good investment, it is better to have it in your hands, where you can use it as and when you need to . Now was the time that he wanted to use it . Upgrading the System was the only way that he could redeem the Space-Breaking Spell, make it, and return to the World of Cultivation .
"System, commence the upgrade to version 10 . 0! Then redeem the Space-Breaking Spell!" Xu Que summoned the System interface .
Ding! "Update in progress!"
The System began to undergo a series of upgrades, consuming large amounts of Acting Tough Points .
Ding! "The System has successfully upgraded to version 6 . 0, and a total of 80,000 Acting Tough Points have been deducted . "
Ding! "The System has successfully upgraded to version 7 . 0, and a total of 160,000 Acting Tough Points have been deducted . "
Ding! "The System has successfully upgraded to version 8 . 0, and a total of 320,000 Acting Tough Points have been deducted . "
Ding! "The System has successfully upgraded to version 9 . 0, and a total of 640,000 Acting Tough Points have been deducted . "
Ding! "The System has successfully upgraded to version 10 . 0, and a total of 1,280,000 Acting Tough Points have been deducted . "
The System upgraded five versions in one go, and 2,480,000 Acting Tough Points disappeared in a flash .
Xu Que's heart had pangs from the painful cost . The little over 2 million Acting Tough Points he had scrimped and saved were gone just like that! Now he was beaten back to square one . However, it was something unavoidable and needed to be done . Xu Que knew that he would have to upgrade the System sooner or later . Moreover, updating the System was the only way he could get his hands on the Space-Breaking Spell .
Sigh! Forget it! I am, after all, a person who scatters gold like dust, the ultimate opposite of a stingy man! Come on, System, quickly give me the recipe for the Space-Breaking Spell! Xu Que shook his head and thought to himself .
The System store bounced into view and displayed a gold, shining jade slip . The way to make a Space-Breaking Spell and all of the ingredients needed could be found in the jade slip . Xu Que took a look and almost vomited blood in anger .
"System, you playing around with me? Making a pathetic Space-Breaking Spell consumes this many precious ingredients? How the crap am I going to find these? Ten-Millennium-Dog-Blood, Ten-Millennium-Flower-Dew, Thousand-Year-Tree-of-Life, Undying White Bone Ashes, Undying Black Bone Ashes, what the heck are these?" Xu Que asked furiously .
In the list of ingredients, the first three were still quite reasonable . Especially so for the Thousand-Year-Tree-of-Life, it was the Living Holy Tree . He had gotten several of them from the South Continent Mystery Land . What a shock! He did not expect the Living Holy Tree to be the lowest tier of all the ingredients .
"Lad, why are you spacing out? Are you still going to make the Space-Breaking Spell? Let me know if you can't make it! I've waited so long that my stomach is growling!" Buttface began to hurry him .
"Eh" Xu Que turned to Buttface at once, and his eyes lit up . Wasn't the Ten-Millennium-Dog-Blood right in front of his eyes?
