Chapter 1188: Get Lost

"Ding! The lottery wheel has a certain probability of obtaining a Divine Artifact, but the current probability is extremely low. It is not recommended for the host to try!"

The system's response echoed in Xu Que's mind!

Hearing this answer, Xu Que wasn't disappointed; instead, he was a little surprised. After all, he hadn't expected to draw a Divine Artifact from the lottery wheel, but the system actually responded that there was such a probability!

Although the probability was very low, at least there was a glimmer of hope, which was definitely a good thing!

However, since the system didn't recommend trying the lottery, Xu Que couldn't be bothered to waste his Acting Cool Points.

Although he had accumulated over a million Acting Cool Points during this period, he hadn't really used them much.

On one hand, his current strength was already powerful, and most things in the system mall couldn't help him much. On the other hand, he was preparing to save these Acting Cool Points to upgrade the system version!

The reason why the items in the system mall were useless was that the system version had long since failed to keep up with Xu Que's current realm!

His realm and strength had improved rapidly over the past few years, but the system had remained at version 10.0, long failing to meet his needs.

To some extent, this was also because Xu Que had become lax, not thinking about acting cool in every word and deed like he used to. But a bigger factor was that he didn't want to rely on the system everywhere; instead, he wanted to walk a path that would make him truly strong.

It was precisely because of this that he had obtained the Saint Body and gained huge rewards.

But the only thing he felt was a pity was that this Saint Body needed time to grow. How could someone like Xu Que, who had no patience, be willing to hide away and practice in seclusion to settle down?

Therefore, Xu Que once again locked his gaze onto the system.

In his view, the system was a shortcut and his greatest foundation. Since he didn't want to hide away and couldn't let his life be in danger before the Saint Body reached the Great Completion realm, he had to rely on the system mall to get more life-saving items.

For example, the Divine Movement Escape Talisman he used back then had long been replaced by the Immortal-grade Divine Movement Escape Talisman. However, when facing those experts on the Heavenly Continent, even a mere Golden Immortal realm expert was enough to crack the Immortal-grade Divine Movement Escape Talisman. So, he had to get new things, which meant upgrading the system.

Upgrading from version 9.0 to 10.0 back then cost 1.28 million Acting Cool Points. Now, wanting to upgrade to version 11.0 would require consuming 2.56 million Acting Cool Points.

For Xu Que, although this wasn't an astronomical figure, it wasn't something he could gather easily. So, naturally, he couldn't waste the current one million-plus Acting Cool Points on the lottery wheel.

Not to mention whether he could draw a Divine Artifact, even if his luck exploded and he drew one, he wouldn't be able to activate it with his current strength. After all, that thing was used by gods. As a mere peak Human Immortal realm cultivator, how could he possibly handle it?

This was a very contradictory and awkward situation. If he had a Divine Artifact, he could collect those Divine Fires, enough to burn a Great Luo Golden Immortal into slag. But if he had the strength to activate a Divine Artifact, he wouldn't need the Divine Fire at all; he could just smash the Divine Artifact out, and not to mention a Great Luo Golden Immortal, even an Immortal King would be turned into slag!

"Sigh, melancholy! The road is long, acting cool is my companion, the burden is heavy and the road is long!" Xu Que sighed silently and exited the system interface.

"Boom!"

At this moment, another loud noise came from the ruins in the distance.

The towering Divine Fire seemed to have been stimulated by something, becoming irritable, its momentum majestic, as if it wanted to burn and swallow the heavens and earth, making one's scalp tingle.

Even though Xu Que was standing on the periphery, quite far from the Divine Fire, he still felt a palpitation.

"Mo Junchen couldn't have failed, could he?" Xu Que frowned slightly, his expression becoming a bit strange.

"Elder Xu, is... is there danger here?" At the same time, Bai Cailing was also alarmed by the violence of the Divine Fire and looked at Xu Que, asking.

The others also looked at Xu Que one after another, their expressions showing some unease. As powerful as they were, they also felt danger.

"You guys stay here and don't move around. I'll go take a look!" Xu Que replied indifferently, then his figure flickered, and he quickly swept toward the direction of the Divine Fire.

Ji Wu Yun and the others all tightened their expressions, watching Xu Que's figure go away, and couldn't help but look at each other.

Afterward, the group couldn't hold back and chose to follow directly.

They had reason to believe that although the place where the fire was towering was dangerous, it was highly likely that treasures would really appear.

Seeing them follow, Xu Que hesitated for a moment but ultimately didn't stop them, because he couldn't stop them even if he wanted to, and besides, he felt there was no need to stop them.

Soon, Xu Que and his group arrived in front of the ruins where the Divine Fire was burning fiercely and saw Mo Junchen's back.

Mo Junchen was suspended in mid-air, his arms spread wide, and his ten fingertips were all flashing with brilliance, extremely dazzling, controlling a mass of ink-black metal liquid, constantly refining it in the Divine Fire.

"That is... Purple Void Geng Metal?" Someone exclaimed on the spot, their face full of shock.

Bai Cailing, Ji Wu Yun, and other prodigies, and even all the guardians, all changed color, unable to believe it.

"Does top-grade Purple Void Geng Metal still exist in this world, and so much of it?"

"My god, could it be that this Purple Void Geng Metal was discovered by them just now?"

"Hiss, if we could get a share, this trip wouldn't be in vain!"

Many people said one after another, their eyes extremely fiery.

A guardian from the Dishou Mountain of the Tianliang Immortal Realm looked at Xu Que and said excitedly, "Elder Xu, our Dishou Mountain is currently refining an Immortal Artifact. Can we have a bit more of this?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone else looked at Xu Que eagerly, and even Bai Cailing and the Yaochi group were no exception.

Clearly, they had misunderstood, thinking that this Purple Void Geng Metal came from these ruins. Although the first discoverers were Xu Que's people, based on the rule of "finders keepers," they should also be able to get a small portion.

Facing this situation, Xu Que glanced at that guardian from Dishou Mountain and replied indifferently, "Get lost!"

Get lost?

Everyone present was stunned for a moment.

That guardian from Dishou Mountain had his expression stiffen even more, then he laughed dryly, "Since Elder Xu is unwilling to give us more, our Dishou Mountain won't force it. Just give us the same amount as the others!"

You won't give us more, then you take the big share, and we four major forces split the rest, that shouldn't be a problem, right?

"Get lost!" Xu Que responded again, simple and rude.

He had no mood to pay attention to this group of idiots now and continued to look at Mo Junchen with a solemn expression.

Judging from the current situation, Mo Junchen's artifact refining process was not going smoothly. The Divine Fire was not as stable as imagined, nor did it have the trend of wilting as it burned before. Instead, it was becoming more and more irritable, as if it could explode at any time, like a second volcanic eruption, wanting to burn everything here to ashes!

Mo Junchen was controlling the Purple Void Geng Metal, continuing to refine it in the Divine Fire, but from his gritted teeth and cold sweat-covered expression, it could be seen that Mo Junchen was enduring great pain and was extremely struggling!

"Uh..."

At the same time, the people from Dishou Mountain felt extremely embarrassed and unhappy with Xu Que's response, and anger arose in their hearts.

Get lost? Get lost again?

What does this mean? Could it be that this old man wants to swallow all the Purple Void Geng Metal alone?

This doesn't follow the rules! Even if you are an existence above an Immortal King, your way of eating is too ugly, not even giving us a sip of soup?
