âAwesome, my System!â
The System was really horrible. It was quite vindictive. After being impeded during the extraction of the Living Holy Water, it just uprooted the entire Living Holy Tree.
Everyone knew that even cultivators at the Great Vehicle Stage couldnât shake a Living Holy Tree. However, the System had just easily pulled it out.
These adjectives flashed through Xu Queâs mind. Then, he realized belatedly that the Systemâs style was quite like his!
His heart filled with ecstasy. Before that, he had still been anxious about how to get the Living Holy Tree. Now the System had just done it for him and he could reap what he hadnât sown.
The cheating feeling made him sense the Systemâs friendliness again. It turned out sometimes the System was not unscrupulous!
âLittle brat, how . . . did you realize that?â Buttface asked. âHow did you pull out that Living Holy Tree so easily?â He glanced at Xu Que in confusion.
Duan Jiude and Liu Jingning also stared at Xu Que in disbelief.
After all, one moment ago they had still been talking about how steadfast the Living Holy Tree was. The next moment, Xu Que had rushed over and pulled the tree out without hesitation. Anyone might be startled by his actions!
âAhem!â Xu Que cleared his throat proudly. âLetâs keep a low profile. Itâs just a Living Holy Treeâa piece of cake for me!â
âItâs impossible! How did you do that?â Duan Jiude still couldnât believe it.
âSimple. I casually pulled it out!â Xu Que replied calmly.
Duan Jiude and Buttface stared at him. âCasually pulled it out? Are you kidding? Do you think you have Herculean Strength?â
âThatâs possible! I remember when I was born, I pointed at the sky with one hand and pointed at the earth with the other hand. In the sky, the word âpowerfulâ drifted along behind the word âhandsome.â It was then I knew that God was telling me I had been born a handsome and powerful man!â Xu Que declared self-righteously.
Buttface, Duan Jiude and Liu Jingning were quite speechless for they knew that he was bluffing again.
âSomethingâs wrong! I guess there was something wrong with this Living Holy Tree. Letâs go to the second island now. I also want to have a try!â Duan Jiude said eagerly. He wondered if the Living Holy Trees were even that powerful, and wanted to try pulling one out himself.
Buttface nodded. âExactly! I also want to try!â
Xu Que sighed, âDonât get your hopes up. You wonât find another person in the world who is this handsome and bestowed with Herculean Strength!â
Finally, Xu Que waved his hand to put the Living Holy Water and the Living Holy Tree into the System Package.
In the System Package, it seemed the entire Living Holy Tree froze. The light on its leaves didnât flow anymore. However, the tree was still full of vigor.
[Living Holy Tree]: A tree grown from the germinated Living Holy Seed, which can absorb the energy of the five elements but is not within the category of the five elements. This tree grows every 1,000 years and reaches its mature period after 10,000 years. The mature Living Holy Tree can generate the Living Holy Water and can be used to refine and extract the Living Holy Pith.
After reading the description of the Living Holy Tree, Xu Que felt his heart beat faster.
The Living Holy Pith extracted from the Living Holy Tree was the divine material mentioned by Duan Jiude, which was one of the main ingredients to refine the Space Breaking Spell!
âSystem, search the Space Breaking Spell or the different methods to refine the Space Breaking Spell!â
A moment later, the System replied, âAfter upgrading the System to Version 10.0, the host can purchase the manual on how to refine the Space Breaking Spell in the System Store. After upgrading the System to Version 20.0, the host can purchase the Space Breaking Spell directly from the System Store!â
Holy sh*t! Why Version 10.0 again?
Xu Queâs lips twitched. This was really deceptive!
When heâd been trapped in the elixir field of the beautiful Taoist nun and heâd wanted to buy a celestial grade Divine Escape Spell, the System had told him to upgrade to Version 10.0 first.
He didnât expect to be asked to upgrade the System to Version 10.0 again while inquiring about the Space Breaking Spell. Even if he could upgrade the System to Version 10.0, he could only purchase the manual on how to refine the Space Breaking Spell. If he wanted to buy the spell directly, he needed to upgrade the System to Version 20.0!
The last time heâd upgraded the system it had used up all his hard-won Acting Tough Points.
Heâd spent 20,000 Acting Tough Points to upgrade it from Version 3.0 to Version 4.0. Then, he spent 40,000 Acting Tough Points to upgrade the System from 4.0 to the current Version 5.0!
The required Acting Tough Points for each System upgrade was always doubled compared to the value needed in the previous upgrade.
In other words, he would need 80,000 Acting Tough Points to upgrade the System to Version 6.0!
If he wanted to upgrade the System from Version 6.0 to Version 7.0, he would spend 160,000 Acting Tough Points!
If he wanted to upgrade the System from Version 5.0 to Version 10.0, he would need to spend 80,000 plus 160,000 plus 320,000 plus 640,000 plus 1,280,000 points, which equaled 2,480,000 Acting Tough Points!
2,480,000 Acting Tough Points!
This was a horriblly astronomical figure for Xu Que!
Xu Queâs excited heart immediately fell. âOh, no! I still have a long journey of acting tough ahead of me! Itâs just a daydream for me to return to Earth soon!â
He felt quite awesome for earning over 50,000 Acting Tough Points in the Mystery Land.
At this rate, he would need at least ten years to scrape together over two million Acting Tough Points while earning and spending at the same time.
âHell! I have to work harder at acting tough! I should never slack off. I should act tough more forcefully!â Xu Que felt his teeth clench together.
With heavy responsibilities on his shoulder, he would work harder to act tough and do his best to scrape together the required Acting Tough Points as soon as possible, so that he could refine the Space Breaking Spell and return to Earth with it.
The warning tone of the System came on. âThe System has detected that the extraction of the Living Holy Water is complete. Now all the ingredients are complete. Is the Host going to refine the Nine Revolutions Revival Fluid now?â
âYes!â Xu Que replied immediately.
Xu Que set aside the plan to return to the Earth and focused on reviving Xiao Rou again. Anyway, he couldnât return to the Earth in a short time. The most urgent issues were to revive Xiao Rou and then find a place to start his secluded cultivation.
Ding! However, just at this moment, the Systemâs warning tone came in again. âThe System detected the Hostâs current position doesnât have enough Spiritual Qi. The refinery of the Nine Revolutions Revival Fluid canât be initiated. The Host must find a place with sufficient Spiritual Qi for it!â
âHoly shIt! Isnât the Spiritual Qi here sufficient?â Xu Que asked.
The Upflowing Sea was quite dangerous. However, as a place connected to the third layer, the Spiritual Qi here was several times denser than that outside. If this couldnât do, where could he go?
Ding! âThe density of Spiritual Qi here is about 30 percent. The refinery of the Nine Revolutions Revival Fluid should be performed at a place where the Spiritual Qi density is at least 50 percent. The denser the Spiritual Qi is, the better the body reshaped by the Nine Revolutions Revival Fluid will be,â the System finished.
Xu Que frowned. Heâd finally managed to scrape together all the required ingredients. He couldnât allow the refinery to be delayed because of insufficient Spiritual Qi!
Moreover, if he could find a place with denser Spiritual Qi, Xiao Rouâs reshaped body would be better. He had to be scrupulous for this issue!
He turned to Buttface instantly. âButtface, you said the third layer is more suitable than here for cultivation. What about the Spiritual Qi in the third layer?â
âThe Spiritual Qi?â Buttface scratched his head. âItâs good and a little bit denser than here, but the difference is negligible. I mean the third layer is quiet, which is suitable for cultivation. More importantly, treasuries can be found there, so it is quite suitable for our treasure-hunt expenditure!â
Xu Que began to worry. âOnly a little bit denser?â
According to Buttfaceâs description, the content of the Spiritual Qi in the third layer was at most thirty-five percent, which was far from enough to refine the Nine Revolutions Revival Fluid!
âLittle brat, letâs go to the other islands to collect the Living Holy Water and the Living Holy Trees!â Buttface urged. âWe should leave nothing for those following us!â He still wanted to try pulling out the Living Holy Tree on the second island.
âItâs not an urgent issue. Now, please tell me where the place with the densest Spiritual Qi in the Mystery Land is?â
Buttface didnât know what to say. After all, he was not familiar with this place either.
Beside him, Duan Jiude grew a mischievous smile. âHeh-heh, young man, your question is really stupid! The place with the densest Spiritual Qi in this Mystery Land is, obviously, the top layer. However, even I couldnât approach that place. You can just forget it because we donât have enough time!â
Hearing that, Xu Que fell silent. What Duan Jiude said was correct. He was not strong enough to reach the top layer before the massive Mystery Land closed.
âHowever, besides the top layer, there is only one place with dense Spiritual Qi, which is my masterâs elixir fields. After all, that place is connected to the top layer and is really full of Spiritual Qi. Ah! Itâs a pity that I canât enter. Otherwise, if I could stay in that place for several decades, I would progress in my cultivation!â Duan Jiude finished.
His words made Xu Queâs eyes immediately light up.
When heâd entered the elixir fields, he could sense the formidably dense Spiritual Qi there. The content of the Spiritual Qi definitely exceeded fifty percent. That was why so many elixirs could grow there!
However . . . Duan Jiudeâs master was still there. Should he sneak into the place again?
Xu Que hesitated. After all, he had seriously offended the extremely beautiful and powerful Taoist nun. If he returned to that place, he could be slapped to death by her!
But if he refused to go back, Xiao Rouâs revival would be delayed again. And it would be much more difficult to find a place with dense Spiritual Qi outside the Mystery Land.
No, it canât be delayed anymore! I should revive Xiao Rou now!
Nothing ventured, nothing gained! Iâm ready to pay any price!
Sheâs just a powerful woman!

Sheâs just a beautiful woman!
Could I really be scared off by her?
At the thought of this, Xu Que turned around and went into the helicopter again. Then, he looked at Liu Jingning, Buttface and Duan Jiude. âPlease wait here for me. I have business to deal with and Iâll be back soon!â
âWait! Where are you going, young man? I want to go with you!â Duan Jiude also tried to board the helicopter for he worried Xu Que would be killed as soon as he left the Upflowing Sea.
âDonât follow me. I am going to f*ck your master . . . no, I am going to find your master!â Xu Que said with a wave of his hand. He pulled the control lever and rapidly flew away.
