Chapter 1187: Brother Que

For a long time, Xu Que had been wanting to refine this broken halberd and reforge it into a handy weapon.

Unfortunately, his artifact refining level was far from sufficient, and his Earthly Fire couldn't refine the Purple Void Geng Metal either!

Now that he heard Mo Junchen could use Divine Fire to refine artifacts, Xu Que immediately thought of this broken halberd, his heart burning with excitement.

If he could refine this thing while preserving the baleful aura inside, his strength would receive a boost and reach a new level!

"This is... Purple Void Geng Metal? And it's top-grade Purple Void Geng Metal!" Mo Junchen exclaimed, his eyes widening in disbelief as he saw the broken halberd in Xu Que's hand.

Since ancient times, it has been said that there is Taibai in the heavens and Geng Metal on earth. Born from the Purple Void and transformed into Purple Void Geng Metal, Geng Metal carries a baleful aura and is the most robust of all; it is a divine-grade material in this world. Even gods have been extremely fond of it; obtaining a thumb-sized piece is enough to make anyone excited!

The broken halberd Xu Que brought out was entirely made of Purple Void Geng Metal, and its color had turned so purple it was almost black—it was clearly the best of the best among Purple Void Geng Metal.

This made it hard for Mo Junchen to remain calm; he was almost scared to tears.

He reached out with trembling hands and said in a shaky voice, "Leader... Leader, how did you obtain such a divine object?"

"Nonsense, of course, it was rewarded to me by the masses when I was acting chivalrously! Stop talking nonsense, just tell me if you can refine this thing. Refine it, preserve the baleful aura inside, and reforge it into a new Immortal Artifact!" Xu Que said.

Before this halberd broke, it was a mid-grade Immortal Artifact, perhaps even a high-grade one. After the tip broke off, the remaining shaft was still a half-grade Immortal Artifact. Xu Que cherished it greatly and was worried Mo Junchen wouldn't be able to handle it!

"Leader, I dare not say anything else, but this Purple Void Geng Metal itself is a supreme treasure. Even without refining, it is comparable to an Immortal Artifact. Not to mention, with the help of Divine Fire now, if I can't refine it, what kind of Artifact Emperor would I be?" Mo Junchen said with a bitter smile.

"Oh? To what extent can you refine it?" Xu Que asked.

"A mid-grade Immortal Artifact, and a high-quality one at that, not much worse than a high-grade Immortal Artifact. Moreover, if I improve in the future, this item can continue to be refined, allowing it to upgrade infinitely. Materials like Purple Void Geng Metal have no upper limit; it wouldn't be surprising if it grows into a Divine Artifact in the future!" Mo Junchen said confidently, also eager to try.

As an Artifact Emperor, he also had his pursuits. Being able to personally refine such a high-level material in his lifetime was simply an honor.

"Very good, then I'll leave it to you!" Xu Que nodded with satisfaction and handed the broken halberd to Mo Junchen.

Mo Junchen held the broken halberd with extreme caution, gently wiping it!

This was Purple Void Geng Metal; every bit was a treasure. Even a tiny flake was incredibly precious!

"Damn, Protector Mo, stop touching it. That Divine Fire will go out in at most an hour. If you don't hurry, there won't be time!" Er Gouzi urged at this moment.

Mo Junchen also came to his senses and smiled slightly, "Give me an hour, and I'll be back!"

After speaking, he turned around, put away the broken halberd, and strode directly toward the great fire in the back.

Xu Que watched him leave. Looking at the Divine Fire from afar, he felt his scalp tingle. He shook his head and dismissed the idea of trying to take away this Divine Fire!

Some things, while precious and rare, require the strength to take them away. Otherwise, playing with fire and getting burned might just happen to him!

"Kid, why did you change into this outfit? Damn, you look older than Duan Jiude!" Er Gouzi leaned over to Xu Que's side and asked.

"You still have the face to ask? It's all because of the mess you guys made at Yaochi. In the end, I had to be the one to clean it up for you. Remember, my current identity is Xu Que's father. Don't blow my cover in front of them later!" Xu Que glared.

If he hadn't discovered Er Gouzi's claw prints in the Yaochi Flat Peach Garden and harvested a Nine-Turn Flat Peach, he would have already taught Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude a lesson!

"Xu Que's father? Damn, kid, are you playing this fancy now? No wonder this deity saw that the look in their eyes when they looked at you was full of awe!" Er Gouzi immediately started flattering him!

Xu Que pressed Er Gouzi's head down with one hand and shook his head, "Stop the flattery. I'm going to draw them away. You find an opportunity to check on Liu Jingning and tell her I'm back!"

"No, no, no, that demoness is currently in seclusion healing her wounds. She won't be able to come out for ten or twenty days! By the way, what about that group from the Shennong Clan?" Er Gouzi said, peeking and looking at the group in the back.

"No need to look. I killed Yi Zhong. The other guardians felt ashamed in front of my handsome face and left in disgrace!" Xu Que waved his hand.

Er Gouzi was instantly amazed, "Brother Que is awesome!"

"Damn, Er Gouzi, can you have some shame? Flattering him like this, be careful of getting struck by lightning! Kid, I won't say much else, I've always agreed that you're handsome, but the fact that you didn't handsome those guardians to death means there's still room for improvement in your handsomeness!" Duan Jiude said righteously.

These two were clearly afraid that Xu Que would settle scores with them later; they were more shameless than the other!

Xu Que couldn't be bothered to pay attention to them and turned back to the outside of the Dao field.

Seeing him return, Bai Cailing and her group hurriedly asked, "Elder Xu, that fire in front..."

"Don't mention it. Those guys were having a barbecue there and caused a forest fire. We've already notified the Zha Tian Bang Firefighting Team to come over. You guys shouldn't get close!" Xu Que waved his hand directly.

Everyone's face instantly darkened.

A barbecue caused a forest fire?

Who the hell are you lying to?

Where would there be a forest in this place?

"Okay!"

However, Bai Cailing didn't ask further and nodded directly.

She could tell that the fire on those ruins was extraordinary and made her feel palpitations. Even Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude had fled back in a sorry state; there would be no benefit for them even if they went over. It was better to do this Elder Xu a favor and choose to ignore it!

Ji Wu Yun and the prodigies of the other two major forces pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly and chose not to move forward!

Xu Que stood where he was and summoned the system interface.

That Divine Fire was truly too extraordinary. Even though he had dismissed the idea of taking it away, he still felt it was a pity in his heart. With the spirit of not wasting or missing any opportunity, he asked the system if he could collect that Divine Fire.

The system's answer was similar to Mo Junchen's, both mentioning that a Divine Artifact was needed to collect it, which made Xu Que feel a bit regretful.

Divine Fire! That was Divine Fire! If he could get his hands on it, he could walk sideways across the Heavenly Continent. Even if a Great Luo Golden Immortal saw him, they would have to walk around him!

Could such a powerful weapon really be missed like this?

This really didn't fit the Zha Tian Bang spirit of "wasting is shameful"!

Xu Que sighed, his mind stirred, and he asked the system, "System, can I draw a Divine Artifact from that lottery wheel?"
