Chapter 200: The Disappearing Dragon Vein

First, he had been beaten up by Xu Que all morning, then he had been tricked into eating shit, and after enduring for so long, Xu Que had still managed to escape.

Now came the terrible news that the imperial mausoleum had been dug up, and it was done by people from the Exploding Heaven Gang!

After suffering these blows one after another, the Fire Emperor's mind was damaged again, and his unhealed injuries immediately worsened!

Dig... digging up the ancestral graves?

The Exploding Heaven Gang actually dug up my ancestral graves?

Is this guy Xu Que himself, or someone sent by Xu Que?

The Fire Emperor's vision suddenly went black, and he nearly fainted from anger.

He opened his eyes wide in anger, glared at the imperial guard, and asked through gritted teeth in a deep voice: "Did you see the appearance of the person who broke into the imperial mausoleum clearly?"

"Sub... subordinate does not know. This matter was passed on from the Banshan Sect. It is said that they saw it with their own eyes, and today we did indeed sense the turbulence of the imperial mausoleum's formation!" The imperial guard knelt on the ground, responding with trepidation.

The Fire Emperor was furious, and the killing intent on his body spread in all directions!

Princess Yan Yang and Zi Xuan also received the news and rushed over quickly.

"Father Emperor, there is no need to worry about this matter. No one who has entered our imperial mausoleum has ever been able to walk out! Regardless of whether that Zhang Qiling is Xu Que or not, he is destined to never return!" Yan Yang said.

The Fire Emperor calmed down slightly, remained silent for a few breaths, and nodded: "That is true. When the ancestors designed this imperial mausoleum, it was easy to enter but difficult to exit. Over the years, it is not as if no one has broken in, but not a single one has been able to come out!"

"So Father Emperor, you should rest and recover from your injuries first. Leave the matter of rebuilding the imperial palace to your daughter to handle!"

"En!" The Fire Emperor nodded slightly and closed his eyes again!

Princess Yan Yang retreated coldly, leaving with Zi Xuan.

Not until they reached the side hall did Princess Yan Yang whisper: "He finally went in. Now this thorn in our side is finally resolved!"

"..." Zi Xuan pursed her lips, her brow still filled with worry. She remained very uneasy, believing that Xu Que was still very likely to come out!

Because that person was Xu Que, and that person... meant miracles!

……

……

And the news spread by the Banshan Sect had already spread throughout the Imperial City!

Countless commoners and cultivators were shocked by it!

"Someone actually broke into the imperial mausoleum?"

"My god, after several hundred years, someone has actually broken in again!"

"And it's the Exploding Heaven Gang. It seems Xu Que has accomplices. He just finished causing trouble in the imperial palace, and someone went to cause trouble at the imperial mausoleum!"

"So what? No one who has broken in has ever been able to come out!"

"That's not right. It is rumored that Duan Jiude once went in and stole a night-luminous cup!"

"That's fake. How could a person like Duan Jiude break into the imperial mausoleum just to steal a night-luminous cup?"

"That's right, it must be fake. Even the Fire Emperor and the others have never paid attention to such rumors!"

"The restrictions inside the imperial mausoleum cannot be broken by anyone. Even a Body Integration Stage expert would find it difficult to get out!"

"It looks like the Exploding Heaven Gang is about to lose a genius!"

……

No one believed that "Zhang Qiling" could walk out of the imperial mausoleum, but the act of breaking into the imperial mausoleum still caused quite a stir in the Imperial City. At the very least, the Exploding Heaven Gang had become famous once again!

However, this matter was soon overshadowed by another major event.

"The Fire Yuan Kingdom is about to welcome an honored guest!"

"I heard about it long ago. It's that Empress of the Water Yuan Kingdom, she is coming!"

"That's right, it is said that the final entry examination for the Heavenly Fragrance Valley is being held in our Fire Yuan Kingdom's Imperial City. The content of the examination might be related to flames!"

"My god, I never expected that in my lifetime, I would be able to see that legendary, stunningly talented Empress!"

"It is said that this Water Emperor has a very extraordinary background. She was the Chief Disciple of the Heavenly Fragrance Valley, and now she is the Empress of the Water Yuan Kingdom, but some rumors say she is also the Saintess of a major clan overseas!"

"Regardless, there will definitely be a curfew in the Imperial City these few days. Look, the guards have become even stricter!"

"The imperial palace is also being rebuilt urgently. It seems the Fire Emperor also attaches great importance to that Empress!"

"Haha, I heard the Fire Emperor has long admired her!"

"Shh, you can't talk nonsense about such things. Be careful that trouble doesn't come from your mouth!"

……

The whole city began to talk about the Empress Water Emperor. Xu Que's grave robbing could not compare to the popularity of that Empress!

And at this very moment, Xu Que was already advancing toward the depths of the ancient tomb!

After releasing the imperial Qi of those generations of emperors, the souls of Jin Dapang and the others completely fell into a state of cultivation, as if that imperial Qi was of great help to them!

Xu Que did not interrupt them, letting them cultivate, and proceeded toward the underground alone.

According to the imperial mausoleum map, the dragon vein was underground, and the passage was set with countless restrictions. Each restriction was enough to kill an Infant Transformation Stage expert, and even those at the Void Refinement Stage would not dare to break in recklessly!

Unfortunately, someone like Xu Que who carried a system with him was directly cheating all the way. Each restriction only required spending 50 points of Acting Cool to break!

"Ding, a restriction has been discovered ahead. Do you wish to spend 50 points of Acting Cool to break it?"

"Break!"

"Ding, a restriction has been discovered 300 meters ahead. Do you wish to..."

"Break!"

"Ding, ahead..."

"Break!"

……

Xu Que transformed into a wealthy player, spending money to smash through whenever he encountered an obstacle. He sang and advanced all the way, determined to dig up the dragon vein and pluck the Primordial Fire Spirit Grass that grew at the end of the dragon vein, absorbing countless essences!

However, when he went deep underground and spent 500 points of Acting Cool to break ten restrictions, he found himself in front of a sea of magma!

"Gurgle..."

This was a natural rock cave, also covered with dense restrictions. The boiling magma was churning, bubbling with air bubbles!

Before Xu Que even got close, he had already sensed a dangerous aura.

His heart stirred, and he frowned and asked: "System, where is the dragon vein?"

"Ding, after detection, the dragon vein has been released and raised under the magma by heaven-defying means and has disappeared. This system can sense the existence of the dragon vein but cannot find it. It is suggested that the host collect the bloodline and grief of the dragon vein owner's descendants to lure it out!"

"Damn it!" Xu Que cursed on the spot.

After all the hard work and spending so many points of Acting Cool, he had been tricked in the end. The dragon vein had actually been hidden by someone? Who else could it be? It must have been done by one of the Fire Emperor's ancestors!

This meant that he now had to make a special trip out to get the Fire Emperor's bloodline and grief...

"Wait, System, are you playing with me? What the hell is grief?"

"Grief refers to tears. Only when grief and bloodline are sensed by the dragon vein at the same time can it be lured out. Other than that, there is no other way!"

"……"

Xu Que was dumbfounded. Bloodline was one thing, but he actually needed the Fire Emperor's tears?

No, Princess Yan Yang's would work too, but... wanting that woman to cry? Heh, it seems a bit difficult, it would be better to go after the Fire Emperor!

Xu Que shook his head, feeling extremely depressed. He had finally made it here, only to be told the dragon vein had disappeared into the magma.

"Eh? Wait, magma..."

Suddenly, Xu Que seemed to think of something.

Gradually, a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes, and a smile suddenly appeared at the corners of his mouth.

"Heh heh, hiding in the magma, right? Fine, I'll just drain your magma dry and see how you hide then!"

Xu Que sneered, suddenly stood up, and his heart stirred.

"Pluto Prison Suppression Body, activate!"

Boom!

Instantly, a muffled sound erupted from Xu Que's body, and his meridians expanded.

With a "whoosh", Xu Que operated the Pluto Prison Suppression Body and jumped directly into the boiling magma!
