Chapter 1063: This Guy Is More Horrible!
"How...could this be?"
"He killed a Celestial with one slash!"
"My God!"
"What kind of devil...is this guy?"
The people of the big families and sects from the East Continent were dumbfounded and terrorized! They were not able to figure out why Xu Que, who was just at the Crossing Calamity Stage, could slash a Celestial in half in such a ferocious way!
Bai Lingrui of the Bai Family was stunned and turned pale. If Xu Que didn't die, it was going to be their turn to die!
Liu Jingning was also surprised and she widened her eyes in disbelief. Even though she knew Xu Que was powerful, she didn't expect that he could defeat a Celestial so easily.
The Sect Leader of the Utopia Faction almost jumped up from the ground with excitement. He said with wild joy, "Good! Good! No wonder you were able to marry the Holy Virgin of the Utopia Faction! Xu Que, I was right about you! We knew we made the right decision to marry our Holy Virgin to you!"
"Sect Leader, you really made a good choice!" Xu Que turned around and said with an elegant smile.
At this time, the Celestials of the three academies were in an uproar!
"Celestial Artifacts?"
"How could this guy have Celestial Artifacts?"
"That broken sword must be at least a Middle-grade Celestial Artifact!"
"If we could get it, our academy would be more powerful when we go back to the World of Near Celestials!"
People from the three academies started to look at Xu Que greedily. Celestial Artifacts were quite rare—even those Masters of the academies couldn't get a Celestial Artifact. That was why this Middle-grade Celestial Artifact was so attractive!
They couldn't hide their greed for Xu Que's broken sword and Firestorm Wheels and they couldn't tolerate that these precious items were held by a young cultivator at Level 5 of the Crossing Calamity Stage, no matter how powerful he was! However,he only had two Celestial Artifacts, which were not enough to be distributed by the three academies equally. Thus, all of a sudden, the three academies started to be wary of each other. None of them attacked Xu Que first. For them, Xu Que was just a piece of meat on a chopping block. Only people from the other academies could pose a real threat to them!
Howl! Just at this time, Buttface rushed out and he roared.
Swish!
He waved his paw to take out a Spell Flag and plunged it into the ground skillfully.
Rumble-!
Instantly, the entire mountain trembled a bit. Then, dazzling light appeared in the ground at the perimeter of the altar. Spiritual Qi in an area about 30 miles in diameter gathered around the altar and formed a whirlpool. Strands of white fog appeared on the mountain peak, which filled the area and even blotted out the sky and covered the sun.
Bang!
At last, along with a dull sound, a giant light barrier was created from nowhere, which covered the altar with ferocious momentum. A Trap and Kill Array was set up!
"Oh, no!" The Celestials came to themselves and started to attack the spell Array with their magic arts! All the cultivators of the Human Celestial Realm and the Half Celestial Realm threw their magic arts at the light barrier!
"Heh, heh, I spent over two months to set up this spell Array! You will never break it easily!" Buttface said with a proud smile.
As expected, the magic arts attacks from theCelestials were absorbed by the spell Array. The dazzling light of the Array dimmed for a short while. Then it became dazzling again after absorbing the Spiritual Qi in this area.
Suddenly, all the people of the three academies' faces got very dark. They had suffered a setback due to carelessness. The Celestial Artifacts made them greedy, and not trusting each other. They didn't expect that Xu Que had a Spell Master with him, who set up this Trap and Kill Array in the blink of an eye! They were not able to break the Array in a short time!
"Humph! Ignorant ants, how dare you offend us?"
"This spell Array will only trap us for a short time. We will break it in six hours! At that time, you won't have anywhere to hide from us!"
"You can't find a place to hide, no matter whether in the Four Great Continents, the Xuanzhen Continent, or the Xuanling Continent!" The Masters of the Human Celestial Realm shouted angrily.
Their voices were just like deafening thunder, which turned many people in this area pale. People of the big families and sects from the East Continent were dumbfounded.
Just now, Xu Que had killed a powerhouse at the Half Celestial Realm with one slash. Then Buttface had trapped the rest of the Celestials with the Trap and Kill Array!
All of this happened so fast that they didn't have time to react. However, they still didn't believe Xu Que could survive. As the Celestials had said, they would break the spell Array soon. At that time, Xu Que and his teammates would still die miserably.
"Xu Que, how dare you disrespect the Celestials?" Bai Lingrui, the Holy Virgin of the Bai Family, stood up to scold Xu Que. After being stunned for a while, the rest of the members of the Bai Family came to themselves and were about to attack Xu Que with magic arts.
"Humph! Xu Que, you are so despicable! Just cancel the spell Array and amend your mistakes with your death!" People of the Carefree Building also stood up and shouted angrily to support the Bai Family.
Actually, they didn't dare to attack. Xu Que was powerful enough to defeat them easily. However, they knew they had to do something. They had to show their loyalty to the Celestials before they came out of the Array to avoid being treated as a sacrifice later. The rest of the families and sects knew what the Bai Family and the Carefree Building were doing. But they didn't dare to show their support!
"Sect Leader, should...we also stand up and make a threat against Xu Que? Otherwise, after the death of the members of the Utopia Faction, we might be killed during the Blood Sacrifice!" An apprentice of the Illusionary Flower & Moon Sect said in a low voice.
"Sect Leader, the Bai Family and the Carefree Building have gotten a head start! I'm afraid it's not good for us to do nothing!" The apprentices of the Eight Directions Green Dragon Sect tried to persuade their Sect Leader.
The Sect Leaders of the two sects made eye contact and shook their heads with wry smiles.
The Sect Leader of the Illusionary Flower & Moon Sect sighed, "You only know the prestige of the Celestials, but you forgot the real danger!"
The Sect Leader of the Eight Directions Green Dragon Sect said wryly, "Xu Que has only been gone for ten years! Have you forgotten the wicked measures of this big devil? If we offend him, I'm afraid we will die within several hours!"
Gasp!
Hearing that, the apprentices of the two sects gasped and trembled in terror.
Indeed, they had forgotten Xu Que's wicked measures. Now, they were dominated by the fear of the Celestials. However, they now remembered this big devil was even more horrible than the Celestials! If the Celestials wanted to kill them, they would be killed instantly. Even if they were killed in a Blood Sacrifice, they would at most die unwillingly. However, Xu Que would definitely torture them before their miserable deaths! This was why this guy was more horrible!
More important, the Celestials were trapped in the spell Array and couldn't get out for several hours. It was useless to show their loyalty to the Celestials now. Could the Celestial save them? Could they survive several hours of Xu Que?
At the thought of this, the apprentices of the two sects got their answer—it is impossible!
