1008 The Ice Valley Entrance (1/2)
Upon leaving the hall of countless tombstones, Xu Que, Jiang Hongyan and company embarked on a new journey alone. Elder Yu and the disciples of the Leaving Leaves Sect did not follow them out. Instead, they stayed with Bai Cailing, which was what Xu Que wanted.
Anyway, those people weren't exactly strong, and he could hardly milk anymore Acting Tough Points from them. Rather than bring them along and handicap himself, he might as well stop the collaboration and go their separate ways.
”Young fellow, now that we have the bone ashes, when will you be done with the Space-Breaking Spell? I want to return to the Four Great Continents already!” asked Buttface, who was tired of this place.
”Why are you so impatient? Let's take a look around the Ice Valley first. We'll leave in a few days!”
The Space-Breaking Spell still needed tens of hours to be completed. Besides, they might not get a chance to return. They should make haste and get as many treasures and Acting Tough Points as they could! Apart from the Heavenly Kismet Fruit and the 3-stripe Spiritual Tao Stone, Xu Que had also gotten some treasure boxes back in the hall full of tombstones. For them to be placed next to the Heavenly Kismet Fruit and the 3-stripe Spiritual Tao Stone, these boxes must contain something exceptional.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
Xu Que marched on as he summoned the System, entering the System parcel to find the boxes.
Swoosh!
A bright flash and the boxes opened. The System notification rang at the same time.
Ding! ”Congratulations to the Host on obtaining 100 pieces of Low-grade Spiritual Crystal!”
Ding! ”Congratulations to the Host on obtaining a Spell Jade Slip—the Taiyi Heavenly Thunder Sword, Low-grade Immortal Magic Art (Moon Rank, Low Tier)!”
Ding! ”Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Genuine Dragon Scale!”
…..
Xu Que was quite stunned by the System notifications. He seemed to have gotten some pretty good stuff. Everything was a grade higher.
A Low-grade Spiritual Crystal was something of a higher tier than a Best-grade spirit stone. A Low-grade Spiritual Crystal contained as much, if not more, Spiritual Energy than what you would find in 100 Best-grade spirit stones.
While Xu Que was not in need of spiritual stones, the Spiritual Crystals had a strand of Heavenly Qi within them. The Heavenly Qi was much more potent than Spiritual Qi, which he could use to advance his cultivation stage.
However, the Spell Jade Slip ”Taiyi Heavenly Thunder Sword” had somewhat surprised Xu Que. While its name may sound quite unimpressive, it's a Low-grade Immortal Magic Art comparable to the System's Moon Rank, Low Tier. With that conversion, this skill was but two levels lower than the Heaven and Earth Seal. Flip that conversion, and you'd see that the Heaven and Earth Seal equated to a High-Grade Immortal Spell.
”That's awesome! While its name is bland, I reckon that it'd be mighty. I could use it to act tough if the opportunity comes along!” Xu Que was glad. He immediately used the Jade Slip and began to cultivate, mastering the skill in no time. However, he was a little confused about the last item, the Genuine Dragon Scale. Call it a dragon scale if that's all it was. However, the System did not describe this item, displaying only its name. The rest was blank.
The dragon scale looked as big as several huge watermelons. It shon with a golden glow like a gold pot and was very sturdy.
Forget it. I'll use it as a shield in future fights. Should be quite useful! Xu Que could not be bothered to explore the use of the Dragon Scale. Seeing how hard it was, he threw it into the System parcel and left it alone.
The group trudged on in the direction drawn out on the map. According to the old man, the Ice Valley was situated around the center of the refined Moon Palace. It was the place where the real treasures were kept. If they could make it past the ice valley, they could obtain enlightenment like no other. Xu Que was very interested. If something as magical as the Heavenly Kismet Fruit could be found in the exterior halls such as the hall of tombstones, the items in the center area should be more powerful. He could laugh in his sleep!
With high expectations, Xu Que hastened his pace and hurried toward the center of the Refined Moon Palace. They progressed fast, thanks to the map. They didn't encounter many traps along the way since the map was accurate, showing routes that were right or commonly used. These were routes where traps would not be laid.
Within a day, Xu Que and his group arrived safely in the vicinity of where the map was leading them. They slowed down.
”Little fellow, I could sense the old man and his granddaughter nearby. They are right ahead!” Buttface said mysteriously.
Jiang Hongyan looked at Xu Que and advised, ”That elder hid his true strength, and I'm afraid that his motives would not be as straightforward as he said. We need to be careful and stay alert!”
”I know. Rest assured, Little miss. If the old man dares to play with me, I'll play his granddaughter...no, I'll toy him to death!” Xu Que replied with a smile as he fixed his gaze in front.
Buttface exclaimed at once, ”Wow, young lad, have you always been this scary? You won't even let the elderly off!”
”Scram! Back when I was wreaking havoc in kindergartens and old folks' homes, you were still eating sh*t!” Xu Que pushed away Buttface's head.
Buttface was offended, ”What's wrong with eating sh*t? Who made the rule that you can't eat sh*t? When I was in R Nation, I heard that they even used sh*t to create medicine! Come on, Teddy, let's tell them together that eating sh*t is not a sin, that eating sh*t is glorious!”
”Glorious your ass!” the toy poodle said in disgust.
Pa!
Buttface glared. He immediately raised his paw and slapped the toy poodle.
That expression, that gaze, that posture, it was evident that he had learned it from Xu Que.
