Chapter 1400: Holy Physique

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

At this moment, the whole Celestial Burial Valley had been engulfed by a murky gale. Every region it touched lost visibility and became hazy.

Mo Junchen, Duan Jiude, and the others who were standing around the entrance to the Celestial Burial Valley all were dumbstruck.

The gale was so strong that it resembled a mighty flood, uprooting trees and rocks, and crushing them into pieces. It seemed as if doomsday had arrived, creating a massive carnage to everything in its path.

“This is too terrifying! I don’t think there is a soul who wouldn’t be scared out of their wits by this,” Duan Jiude spoke in a frightened, shaking voice.

“Faction Leader Xu...” Mo Junchen uttered only these three words. His expression was grave, and sadness was apparent in it.

If Xu Que hadn’t rushed into the safe zone in time, then he surely wouldn’t survive the furnace’s terror.

Liu Jingning pursed her lips and looked all around the Celestial Burial Valley. She kept her silence.

The giant turtle in the air was plainly overjoyed, and it laughed crazily, “Ha, ha, ha, I have been planning this for many tens of thousands of years, and it will finally be accomplished today. My Sea Tribe will rise up.”

Meanwhile, in the Celestial Burial Valley, chaos reigned.

The Sea Tribe Army’s million troops stuck together and tried madly to escape toward the entrance.

However, as the thunderous gale swept over the Sea Tribe Army’s million troops, they were all instantly turned into 1 million skeletons. Soon, the skeletons were also crushed and turned into ashes that were blown away with the wind.

Nevertheless, there remained a massive amount of scarlet blood on the ground, and this was so huge that it formed a river. The blood seeped underground, and a scarlet river was born. It flowed toward the mountain range where the Spirit Core was located.

On Xuanyuan Wanrong’s mountain, which was at a distance, the body of the sea cucumber was shivering ceaselessly.

His consciousness had not woken, but his body and his cultivation power had been affected by the terrifying gale, and boundless amounts of his Celestial Core Power had been extracted from him.

After two hours, the sea cucumber had shrunk, and he was only half as big as he’d been before. Now he was the same size as a child.

Now the gale turned even more dangerous as it got stronger and stronger. It seemed boundless, like dark brown floodwater.

After four hours, the sea cucumber was only as big as a man’s hand, and the gale had turned pitch-black. It rose from the interior of the mountain and flew into the air like a giant black demonic dragon.

When the crowd outside the Celestial Burial Valley witnessed this sight, their expressions changed drastically.

“Is that...a black dragon?” Mo Junchen asked in surprise.

“F*ck! Could it be that that’s Mr. Buttface?” Duan Jiude cried out in alarm. He found this unbelievable!

Buttface always claimed that he was a descendant of an Ancient Demonic Dragon, and even Xu Que believed him slightly. But, Duan Jiude didn’t believe him at all, and this was why he was astounded by this sight.

“That’s not right. It doesn’t seem like a real dragon, but a draconic wind formed by Celestial Core Power,” Mo Junchen finally figured out what this black dragon-like hurricane was, and he spoke in a deep voice.

“What happened inside there?” Liu Jingning’s face was filled with worry and she looked at the black draconic wind’s location. This was the land where Xuanyuan Wanrong had slept in the past.

If Xuanyuan Wanrong had really been sacrificed by this black draconic wind, then Xu Que would die with her. This wasn’t an outcome that Liu Jingning wanted to see.

.....

Meanwhile, the black draconic wind in the Celestial Burial Valley was whistling and spinning in the air, and, all of a sudden, it turned its draconic head around and dove fast toward the ground.

BANG!

At that, the whole Celestial Burial Valley quaked, and a muffled noise echoed out and the ground collapsed. The black draconic wind drilled into the earth and emitted a large amount of Earth Element Spiritual Qi. Soon after, it fused with the ground and rushed toward the Spirit Core’s mountain range nearby.

The Spirit Core’s mountain range had turned dark and foggy, as it had been engulfed by a terrifying hurricane. The mountain range was at the center of the hurricane in its eye, and this was why it had managed to avoid the furnace’s refining without suffering any harm.

The palace within the Spirit Core’s mountain range had been filled with the Celestial Core Power that had flowed from under the ground.

It was fortunate that this palace was a Celestial Artifact. If this hadn’t been the case, it would have collapsed right away in the face of the boundless Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Energy.

However, it was a Celestial Artifact, and Xu Que and Buttface were sitting cross-legged inside with their eyes closed.

The first wave of Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Energy went through the palace’s ground and rose into the air. It turned into a translucent little dragon and penetrated the bodies of Buttface and Xu Que.

THUMP!

Buttface was instantly sent flying into the ceiling by the dragon, and he let out a miserable scream. Soon after, he started cursing.

“Scr*w your mother! Why don’t you let me cultivate properly? Didn’t I absorb just a little part of the Celestial Core Power? I...f*ck...”

Buttface’s voice disappeared suddenly before he finished cursing, and he looked in surprise at Xu Que. He was astounded.

Xu Que hadn’t been affected by the attack of the little dragon formed by the Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Energy, and he sat on the ground as firm as a boulder. However, his body had been injured, and it was filled with many wounds, while golden blood flowed from him.

But, despite this, the dragon formed by the Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Energy was controlled by him, and it dissipated in the air. Soon after, it went through Xu Que’s wounds and flowed into his body.

This was the first time Buttface had ever seen such a crude cultivation method, and he was terrified by it.

“Darn it! Lad, you are taking everything for yourself. I shouldn’t have shared this good fortune with you.” Buttface was so infuriated that he beat his chest and stamped his feet. He resented Xu Que, but he couldn’t do anything about it.

He really didn’t have any solution. After all, he’d assessed Xu Que according to the normal way of cultivating. He didn’t expect that Xu Que would cheat again. After his body had been completely wounded, he’d started absorbing Celestial Core Power into his wounds. This was too terrifying.

However, as Buttface thought about all the previous fortunes he’d received thanks to Xu Que, he felt at ease again. “It’s fine, in the past, I didn’t get even leftovers. This time, I’ll get at least some leftovers.”

After he spoke, he sat back cross-legged on the ground in satisfaction, and he continued cultivating.

Xuanyuan Wanrong, who was outside the palace, was dumbfounded by everything that she had seen. Her pretty eyes shone brightly, and faint shock, as well as disbelief, was apparent in them.

She had never seen such a body. He was only at the peak of the Earth Celestial stage, yet he could bear the attack of the dragon that had been formed by Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Energy. In addition, after he sustained injuries, he’d managed to absorb Celestial Core Power at a higher speed.

Even in the Gods Era, a Divine King with a Divine Physique or Hades with a Mighty Body couldn’t achieve this.

“Well? That is...” Xuanyuan Wanrong was startled suddenly, and her gaze fell upon Xu Que’s chest.

After Xu Que had borne the attack of the first dragon formed by Celestial Core Power, his clothes had been torn apart, and his body was revealed. It was a perfect body with fantastic muscles, but there were several crooked and ugly words written on his chest.

“Holy Physique?” Xuanyuan Wanrong frowned. She found Xu Que’s actions hilarious!

No matter what was one’s physique, who would write its name on one’s body? Not only that, his writing was so ugly, no different than a child’s scribble.

Xuanyuan Wanrong forgot this silliness as she became lost in thought again due to Xu Que’s amazing performance, as well as his great body and high cultivation speed.

“Does this lad...really have a Holy Physique?”
