BANG!
At this moment, Xu Que and Buttface were in the Celestial Burial Valley’s Spirit Core Mountain Range.
Buttface kicked at a large boulder. His face was filled with excitement!
“Ha, ha, ha, I feel that I’ve already approached the Spirit Core’s location,” Buttface shouted in joy.
Xu Que let out a breath with a smile on his face. He observed the passage that had been made here recently.
The human and dog had bustled around for a day and made a shortcut in the mountain range that led to the Spirit Core’s location. At this moment, they had already finished nine-tenths of the passage, and they would shortly get to see the Sea Tribe’s almighty being.
“Buttface, I feel like I must ask you this again. Is your memory really reliable?” Xu Que looked at Buttface as he spoke.
“You can set your mind at ease. I’ve always handled matters promptly and am reliable,” Buttface struck out his chest as he made this solemn vow.
“Hee, hee, this is exactly the reason why I had to verify this again,” Xu Que answered, laughing and wearing a mocking, yet graceful smile.
“F*ck! This time, I’m really sure of this. Do you think that I want to take any risks? Darn it, If I hadn’t suddenly remembered some events from the past, I would’ve allowed the old b*stard lying underground to get many benefits.”
Buttface looked extremely angry. “In the past, my sixth life’s self joined hands with him to make this region, and it was used to smelt all the heavenly treasures in the Celestial Burial Valley. Then he mounted a sneak attack on me and inflicted heavy injuries on my sixth life’s self. At that time, I had to escape into a distant land, and this is why he occupied this land. Later, he changed its layout and turned it into a Worldly Furnace that would help him achieve his objective.”
“Fine, fine. They are all events of a past life. So, why are you so angry? Moreover, don’t we now have a chance to get revenge?” Xu Que patted Buttface’s head and comforted him with a smile.
As a matter of fact, when Xu Que heard Buttface mention his past life’s memory, he found this unreliable.
But this time, Buttface had recalled a complete piece of memory. In his sixth life, Buttface had lived during the last period of the Celestial Emperors Era. At that time, many almighty beings were looking for a way to cross the Law End Era. Buttface chose to join hands with the Sea Tribe’s almighty being, and they looked for precious land. In the end, they were successful and found a precious land at the seabed.
They had joined hands to turn the precious land into a furnace that would operate automatically. It would smelt all worldly treasures and spiritual Qi in this precious land. It would be used to preserve the two of them sleeping until they woke up again at the end of the Law End Era.
The method was pretty good, but the Sea Tribe’s almighty being betrayed Buttface’s sixth life self and mounted a sneak attack on him. He inflicted heavy injuries upon Buttface’s sixth life self and forced him to escape from this world.
At that time, the Sea Tribe’s almighty being also sustained some injuries, and he could only go back to the seabed and change the layout. He left behind some ancestral teachings before he went into his sleep and shunned the world.
The feats of the Sea Tribe’s almighty being were exaggerated in the following years, and he became a legend. People said that he’d had to bury himself because he’d sustained injuries fighting a Celestial Emperor of the Human Clan, and this was why they named this place the Celestial Burial Valley. As a matter of fact, this was just nonsense.
The Sea Tribe’s almighty being had exploited the changes of the terrain, and he predicted its future geographical state. This was why he changed the layout so that it would naturally form a Worldly Furnace on this day. It would sacrifice the blood of all myriad beings in the Celestial Burial Valley and strengthen him.
“He made many plans and calculations, yet he still didn’t expect that I would come back in this life to wreck his plans. He plotted actively, yet in the end, he will just provide all those benefits to us, won’t he?” Buttface took pleasure in this guy’s misfortune, and he laughed loudly.
“All right, you have gotten lucky. Continue digging,” Xu Que rolled his eyes at him and spoke.
This was very fortunate. However, it was still a pity that he couldn’t bring Liu Jingning and the others to share it.
The reason why he could come inside with Buttface was that his fleshly body was quite tough. Liu Jingning and Duan Jiude couldn’t resist the influence of this land’s Blood Sacrifice, and even Mo Junchen couldn’t resist it. After all, even Xu Que who had a second-rate holy physique had to activate the System’s automatic recovery ability to persevere and resist the influence of the Blood Sacrifice’s power.
This was why only Xu Que and Buttface could get this great fortune.
“Lad, if we succeed this time, you will manage to advance at least into the peak of the Heaven Celestial stage or even the Taiyi Celestial stage. I feel like you must say something about this,” Buttface said, making hints at Xu Que. He wanted to get some benefits!
“Hee , hee, express something? What do you want me to express? The Act-Tough King’s Punch or the Act-Tough King’s Kick? If they aren’t good enough for you, I could also hit you with the Tough-Acting King’s Purple-Gold Rod, how about it?” Xu Que sneered coldly.
Buttface immediately cowered and said hurriedly, “It’s needless, needless. Let’s dig quickly, we don’t have much time left.”
After he spoke, he started using both his hands and legs.
THUMP!
The last layer of earth wasn’t able to obstruct Xu Que and Buttface, and it was quickly dug out. They opened a path to the tomb that had been buried underground for innumerable years.
According to reason, the place where the body had been buried should have an adequate defense, but the Sea Tribe’s Almighty Being might have slipped about this, assuming that the Worldly Furnace would obstruct everyone from entering this region. Or he might’ve been too hasty when he entered, and this was why he couldn’t set up too many protections around the tomb.
Xu Que and Buttface managed to easily dig out the last layer of soil, and they entered a pitch-black tomb.
This tomb was just a cave with an expanse of a dozen square yards. There was a little room as big as a cottage at the center of the cave made from black jade. One couldn’t see what was inside it.
Buttface laughed loudly. “Ha, ha, ha, this old b*stard really used the jade coffin I had prepared for myself. He’s really screwed. I’m familiar with the restriction spells on it, and I can open it easily.”
“F*ck, Buttface. You’re enjoying yourself, aren’t you? You prepared this room-like coffin?” Xu Que was left speechless. He could discern through observing this jade room that it was really something built by Buttface.
“Hee, hee, this happened in my past life, and if I prepared one now, I would make it a unique large palace,” Buttface spoke proudly.
Xu Que wore a disdainful look. “Unique? You have probably gotten this idea when you saw Xuanyuan Wanrong’s palace on the Heaven Continent, didn’t you?”
“Nonsense! I’ve come up with this myself,” Buttface shouted forcefully and he wore a shameless look.
Xu Que was amused by this, but he didn’t continue mocking him, and he looked at the Black Jade Room.
The room’s interior seemed fuzzy from outside and the Jade Room’s surface was filled with restriction spells. This could be considered its last defense!
“Lad, let me deal with those restriction spells. But, you must look for a suitable object that I can use to take and restrain this Spirit Core. If we don’t do so, all the Celestial Core Power will disappear after the Worldly Furnace is activated, and we won’t manage to gather it,” Buttface looked at Xu Que and spoke.
Xu Que raised his brows. “Couldn’t we use this Jade Room?”
“We can’t use it!” Buttface wore a regretful look. “I was too confident in my previous life, and I made perfect restriction spells. If those restriction spells are broken, the Jade Room will also be destroyed.”
“Your way of thinking is really extraordinary.” Xu Que shook his head. He was left speechless!
“What was the relationship between the perfection and power of the restriction spells and the destruction of the Jade Room?”
However, Xu Que also was against using this Jade Room to absorb the Celestial Core Power.
After all, this Jade Room was a coffin that was once used by someone else, and it would be disgraceful to go inside and lodge in it.
“Forget about it, let’s use Xuanyuan Wanrong’s palace. There is a Golden Branch Jade Elixir Pool inside and that will double the Celestial Core Power’s efficiency. I may even get to become a Taiyi Celestial in one go.” Xu Que chuckled and waved his hand. He took out the Ice Palace he’d gotten on the Heaven Continent’s Icy Mist Mountain.
He reduced the size of the palace and put it next to him. He sat down and waited for Buttface to open the Black Jade Room.
According to their plan, they would take advantage of the time left until the complete operation of the Worldly Operation to throw out the Sea Tribe’s almighty being before he awakened and feed him to some dogs.
“Huh? I shouldn’t call it feeding it to dogs because this isn’t any different than cursing myself. After all, I will also get a share in a short while,” Xu Que stroked his chin and muttered in a soft voice.
