Chapter 1682: I Am Incompatible with Evil
The next day, the weather was fine and the breeze was gentle.
Xu Que sat up from the Holy Water Spring, stretched, and let out a comfortable groan.
"Bastard! Hurry up and pick up this Divine Stone to bathe!"
"You humble ant, how dare you humiliate this Divine Stone like this!"
"The gods will send down divine punishment! Sooner or later, you will die without a burial place!"
The Divine Stone, which had been used as a cushion under his butt, was flashing wildly with divine scripts, the frequency so high it looked like a barrage of comments.
Xu Que slapped it casually, which immediately caused even more divine scripts to surge out.
He looked around suspiciously and discovered that the few auras that had been following him recently had all disappeared.
"Interesting... The cultivators of this Illusory Cloud Immortal Realm want to kill me, but they don't have the guts to do it here. Could it be that they've given up now?" Xu Que muttered to himself, then shook his head, no longer thinking about these matters.
Now that he had balanced the demonic energy, the system had returned to normal, his cultivation had risen to the mid-stage of the Immortal Venerable Realm, and he had even gained a brand-new power.
Let alone mere Immortal Venerable cultivators, even a Half-Emperor level powerhouse would have to weigh whether they were heavy enough to mess with him!
At the same time, Xu Que had given his brand-new power a name—Chakra!
He had already planned it out: before fighting in the future, he would strike two poses and then shout, "Release, Chakra!"
Just thinking about it made him feel very cool.
Leaving the Holy Water Spring, there were already female disciples of the Holy Moon Hall waiting. Seeing Xu Que come out, they took the initiative to greet him and led him toward the council hall.
During his time at the Holy Moon Hall, because he had repaired the various areas lacking life force, Xu Que had leaped to become an undisputed honored guest of the Holy Moon Hall!
However, what was regrettable was that this place was truly still a bit closed-off; even as an honored guest, he couldn't bathe with these female cultivators, which was truly a pity.
They had already cultivated to the Immortal Venerable Realm, so why did they still hold onto those outdated concepts?
This was backward, and being backward meant getting beaten!
Xu Que sighed, thinking that such things couldn't be rushed. He would only have to find a way to enlighten the female disciples of the Holy Moon Hall slowly when he returned in the future.
As fellow practitioners of the Dao, opening their hearts to bathe together and sitting down to discuss the Dao—how pleasant that would be!
"Sigh, the road is long and the journey is far..."
Xu Que sighed and lamented all the way. Seeing this, the female cultivator couldn't help but worry: "Does Master Tang have any troubles?"
"I am troubled that we cannot bathe together..."
"Hmm?"
"Cough, that, this poor monk observes that the Holy Moon Hall still has some disharmony, and I lament that I cannot cast aside pretenses with all the disciples to sit and discuss the Dao. It is truly a pity."
"
Hearing this, the female disciple's eyes were filled with emotion.
This was a truly enlightened high monk!
Not only did he help the Holy Moon Hall recover to its original state, but he also thought about discussing the Dao with the disciples to remove the shackles on their hearts.
"If Master Tang doesn't mind, after returning from the competition, this junior can sit and discuss the Dao with you," the female disciple said earnestly.
Xu Que's face immediately lit up with joy: "You said it, you can't go back on your word!"
After saying that, he walked excitedly toward the council hall, urging from time to time: "Hurry up, let's finish the competition so we can come back and discuss the Dao."
Arriving at the council hall, he found that Fairy Nishang had already been waiting.
"Fairy, are we about to head off for the Heavenly Gate Competition?" Xu Que asked excitedly.
Fairy Nishang nodded and said, "That's right, but the rules for this Heavenly Gate Competition have changed. It is no longer a head-to-head battle as before, but rather requires entering a secret realm, and the final winner will be decided based on the total number of treasures obtained."
Xu Que raised an eyebrow: "Why did the rules suddenly change to this?"
Fairy Nishang sighed: "To tell you the truth, because too many cultivators from other regions have entered this place recently, and the number of cultivators participating in the Heavenly Gate Competition has surged, we had no choice but to adopt this method of competition."
Xu Que felt ashamed. Although he had been in seclusion in the Holy Moon Hall these days, he had still received quite a bit of news from the outside world.
The reason these cultivators rushed to the True Eternal Immortal Realm was partly to hold the ground for Dong Wuqi, and partly to watch the fun.
Both of these matters were related to him.
"Cough, that... in this poor monk's opinion, if it's about exploring for treasures, perhaps Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude will also go. This poor monk is duty-bound to capture them." To prevent Fairy Nishang from not letting him go, Xu Que hurriedly found an excuse.
Unexpectedly, Fairy Nishang looked at him strangely: "How does Master Tang know that Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude have already gone to the place where we are going to compete?"
"What? They really went? Damn this dead dog... cough cough, these two really are people who won't move without profit." Xu Que was shocked.
Damn it, he was just bluffing, but he actually guessed it right.
But thinking about it, with the personalities of Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude, it would be strange if they weren't found in a place with treasures.
"That's right, the place where we are participating in the competition this time is the legendary Divine Trial Ground," Fairy Nishang said in a deep voice. "In the ancient times, there were still gods appearing in the Immortal Cloud Continent. Although the world says that the gods fell because they fought each other, according to our continuous investigations, we discovered that the truth is not so, but we haven't investigated the specific reason yet. And this Divine Trial Ground is a place related to gods that we discovered recently."
"Oh oh, then wouldn't this place be full of dangers?"
"Actually, strictly speaking, the degree of danger is not high. It mainly depends on what kind of god's trial ground this is, and we also have to guard against whether there is any residual consciousness of the god in this place."
"Gods still have residual consciousness?" Xu Que was surprised at the time. "Didn't they say the gods were all dead?"
"Actually, that's not the case. This kind of trial ground generally stores a wisp of the god's divine sense to facilitate future generations to open this place. So if we enter it, we must never offend this god's divine sense, otherwise, there may be a great disaster," Fairy Nishang warned with a serious face.
After saying that, she paused and said in a deep voice: "And, I heard that the Chosen One will also appear here. I don't know what she is looking for."
Xu Que was stunned, suddenly shocked.
Damn!
Xuan Yuan Wanrong is coming too!
Thinking of his experience with Xuan Yuan Wanrong in that illusion, Xu Que felt a wave of embarrassment.
But Xuan Yuan Wanrong coming here, doesn't that mean there is something here that can undo the Supreme Clarity Heavenly Book?
"Fairy Nishang, there is no time to lose, let's set off immediately!"
Xu Que said with a serious face, "I can't wait to capture those two scoundrels who steal fame, Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude, and take them back to the Exploding Heaven Gang for execution! I am incompatible with evil!"
