Chapter 909: Who Gave You Such Confidence?

Boom—!

Accompanied by a series of explosive crashes, the entire Tower was completely destroyed, leaving only a small portion of the top layer, shrouded in a ring of Spiritual Light, hovering in mid-air.

But the lower half of the Tower had vanished without a trace, turned to dust and ashes, leaving not even dregs behind, becoming ash that dispersed in the Wind.

"This... how is it possible?"

Dong Yue came to his senses, his face filled with horror, and he spoke with a trembling voice.

He recalled Xu Que's earlier words about killing him, and instantly felt his scalp go numb; if an attack of such power were to land on him, he felt his little life might truly be hanging by a thread.

Elder Yu and the other two heads of the Dong Family were also greatly shocked in their hearts, unable to speak.

Such strength far exceeded their imagination.

Originally, they thought that once Xu Que entered the Tower, he would face nine deaths and one life; even if he didn't die, he would lose several layers of skin, and that was only because The One at the top of the Tower had shown mercy and let him off.

But they never expected that shortly after this kid went in, he directly destroyed the entire Tower.

All those amazing Formation Prohibitions had become a joke!

This was simply defying the heavens!

"Ant, do you plan to hide up there like a turtle with its head retracted? Er Gouzi, quickly close the gate and release yourself to go up and bite him!"

At the same time, Xu Que was still standing below, shouting provocatively with an extremely domineering aura.

Er Gouzi widened his eyes: "Damn it, the building is gone, where is there a gate to close? But... why can't I sense his qi?"

"It's being obscured by a Restriction," Xu Que smiled, his gaze also examining the space above with great interest.

Just now, he had used the King of Acting Cool Fist to easily destroy all the Arrays; under such domineering Dao Rhyme, no Array could possibly block him.

Yet, coincidentally, the top layer where the opponent was located utilized a Grand Formation comparable to and approaching the level of an Ancient Fierce Formation, blocking the lingering might of the King of Acting Cool Fist and completely obscuring his qi and cultivation, making it impossible for anyone to peer inside with Divine Soul Power.

"Wow, are people these days so 'social'? Actually playing this trick; kid, you'd better be careful, the person up there must be an old dirty B!" Er Gouzi exclaimed with a look of shock.

"Do you need to tell me that? Go away, go away, if you have nothing to do, go shit off to the side!" Xu Que immediately rolled his eyes.

Ever since this Er Gouzi went to Earth, he had truly learned quite a few vulgar phrases, using them with Perfected skill; he was probably going to cause even more trouble in the future.

"Boom!"

Just then, the top layer of the Tower above the cloudy sky suddenly shook, sweeping out an invisible wave of qi in all directions.

The next moment, a vast pressure instantly spread out, covering the entire Arena and enveloping the surrounding area.

"Interesting, a mere Integration Stage Peak actually possesses such strength; with such strong Dao Rhyme, you are indeed comparable to the Inner Sect Disciples of my sect!"

A steady voice carrying authority came from within the top layer of the Tower.

"Eh?"

Xu Que was instantly stunned, somewhat surprised.

That was actually a female voice, and it sounded very weathered, clearly belonging to an old woman of advanced age.

It was just that the opponent was protected by an Array, concealing her qi and cultivation; from the pressure alone, one still could not tell exactly what level of strength she possessed.

But since she had uttered the three words "Body Integration Stage," Xu Que could basically confirm that the opponent was definitely a Cultivator, not a native from this Taijin Continent.

"Hehe, old dirty B, if you have the guts, come down; don't hide up there bragging. To tell you the truth, someone as weak as me in my Exploding Heaven Gang can at most only serve as a Servant Disciple; yet you say I'd become an Inner Sect Disciple in your sect? Is your sect too weak, or is my Exploding Heaven Gang too strong?" Xu Que mocked coldly, attempting to enrage the opponent into revealing herself so he could ascertain her realm before deciding whether to fight.

After all, judging from the pressure, the opponent's strength was absolutely no weaker than Buddha Master and the Holy Emperor from the Xuanzhen Continent.

"Hmph, such an arrogant kid; do you truly think this old one dares not kill you?" A furious shout immediately rang out from within the top layer of the Tower above the cloudy sky.

However, much Thunder but little Rain; the opponent showed no intention of attacking at all.

This made Xu Que raise his Eyebrows slightly, and he immediately became delighted.

Trying to bluff This Seat, the King of Acting Cool Saint?

Do you take me for a three-year-old child?

"Hahaha!"

Immediately, Xu Que let out a loud laugh and said coldly: "My Exploding Heaven Gang has always liked to act against those who overestimate their own abilities; if you want to kill me, then come on. Although I am only at the Body Integration Realm, hundreds of my Exploding Heaven Gang members have already gathered outside the City, and even our Gang Leader, the Grand Marshal Xu Que, has arrived; even if you are at the Immortal Realm, you will have to cry and beg for mercy."

"..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the top layer of the Tower immediately fell into silence.

At the same time, the few people outside the Tower also wore looks of astonishment.

They had all heard the dialogue between Xu Que and that powerful figure in the sky, and roughly understood some of the facts.

Although Xu Que was still spouting threats, everyone in the Dong Family was very certain that Xu Que's strength could not exceed that of The One inside the top layer of the Tower.

Because they had witnessed that person's terrifying strength and seen those powerful methods; otherwise, they would not respect and submit to her so much.

"Elder Yu, do we need to do something?" At this moment, the eldest of the Dong Family looked toward Elder Yu and asked in a low voice.

Elder Yu pondered for a moment, then shook his head slightly: "No need; since The One has not spoken, we had best not meddle!"

The second of the Dong Family immediately frowned: "But..."

Before he could finish speaking, Elder Yu immediately interrupted: "There is no 'but'; This Seat knows that The One is heavily injured, but after such a long period of Closed-door Cultivation, she will recover soon; most likely, she is merely stalling for time, and when that happens, that little rascal will suffer."

"Sigh!" Upon hearing this, the eldest miss of the Dong Family couldn't help but look toward Xu Que in the direction of the Tower and sighed with sympathy.

At this moment, Xu Que, standing beneath the Tower, remained calm.

He increasingly felt that the opponent was likely bluffing, perhaps just trying to use this pressure to scare him off.

But after a few breaths, the opponent slowly opened her mouth: "Young man, are you not afraid of biting your tongue when speaking such big words? If this old one did not need your help, you would already be dead by now."

"Hmph!" Xu Que gave a cold snort with a calm and composed expression, replying: "Help your Mother's Paralysis!"

"Hehe, it seems you won't cry until you see the coffin; must this old one reveal herself before you will soften?" A mocking laugh came from the top layer of the Tower.

Xu Que remained solemn, responding: "Soften your Mother's Paralysis!"

"Good, interesting; this is the first time this old one has seen a shameless Cultivator with such no virtue as you," the voice from the sky replied, the tone full of amusement.

This instead made Xu Que somewhat suspicious; could it be that the old woman inside was truly a powerhouse at the Immortal Realm? Otherwise, how could she have such confidence and self-assurance?

"Young man!"

At this moment, the other party spoke again, calmly and reasonably: "To tell you the truth, this old one has suffered severe injuries and cannot possibly leave this Formation for the time being. But you had best obediently follow orders and go to Lian Yue Palace to snatch the Jade Box for this old one; once you help this old one Break and Then Establish, I will naturally reward you heavily. Otherwise, once this old one recovers from these injuries, no matter where you hide, this old one will come to take your little life."

"Suffered severe injuries?" Upon hearing this, Xu Que's eyes immediately brightened.

"Correct, this old one is injured, but you had best put away those little schemes of yours; this Array is this old one's masterpiece, and you cannot break it," the other party responded with Solemnity.

"Hehe, where does your confidence come from, daring to say I cannot break your Array?" Xu Que narrowed his eyes slightly and laughed mockingly.

The other party showed not a trace of Terror, but instead displayed immense confidence, stating with Solemnity: "This Array of mine integrates over a hundred different Arrays and Restrictions, possessing both defense and offense; with the power of that punch you just threw, I'm afraid it will take no less than ten days to break it! Yet this old one's injuries will recover in another five or six days."

The other party's tone carried arrogance mixed with contempt, and even that final sentence served as a warning to Xu Que: if he did not cooperate, in five or six days, he would be in deep trouble.

Faced with such a barefaced threat, how could Xu Que possibly be pleased?

"Old hag, in all these years, you are the first person who has dared to speak to me like this! However..." Xu Que paused slightly, a smile playing on the corners of his lips: "I just want to ask you once more, where does your confidence come from, making you think I cannot break your Array?"

As he said this, he suddenly raised his hand, clenched his five fingers into a fist, and a Golden Beam abruptly blazed forth, emitting a Dao rhyme and aura dozens of times more vast than before.

"What?" Instantly, a terrified cry of shock rang out from the top floor of the Tower.

Xu Que laughed coldly: "Let me tell you a little secret: that punch just now, I damn well only used ten percent of my strength! Now, you just obediently roll down here and eat shit! Er Gouzi, have you shitted it out yet?"

"I'm shitting, don't rush me!"
