“F*ck! You scared us!”

Frowns of intense consternation appeared on the foreheads of the Exploding Heavens Faction members as they watched Duan Jiude. They were speechless.

“How could you say that in this circumstance?”

“You’ve only got a cramp in your finger from fortune-telling. When you said that the matter was far from good, we thought you were talking about the situation that we were in.”

“Hurry up and help me. Pull at my finger. It seems like I won’t be able to finish this divination,” Duan Jiude urged them to help him.

Upon hearing this, several members of the Exploding Heavens Faction instantly stepped forward and pulled out Duan Jiude’s finger.

Duan Jiude didn’t stay idle, and he enjoyed their finger massage as he started making calculations with his other hand.

Soon an overjoyed look appeared on his face.

“F*ck! This is a great divination. It seems as if we aren’t going to suffer any danger,” Duan Jiude shouted in surprise.

The crowd was startled. “We are facing a severe situation. How could it be a great divination?”

Mo Junchen was still fighting with the large turtle. They had arrived at a complete stalemate. They were so evenly matched that the fight was going nowhere.

As for their allies, Mo Junchen had only Duan Jiude and Liu Jingning, experts at the Celestial stage, but Liu Jingning had been heavily injured.

As for the turtle’s companions, they weren’t an army with a million troops anymore. They still had three or four Sea Tribe Commanders at the Earth Celestial stage, as well as a more terrifying commander-in-chief at the Heaven Celestial stage. This person possessed outstanding fighting prowess, and he’d managed to inflict heavy injuries upon Liu Jingning.

Thus there was a large disparity in power. So how could there be any great news from the divination?

“Ha, ha, ha! Sirs, you can set your minds at ease and heave sighs of relief. If I haven’t guessed wrong, that lad and Buttface didn’t die, and they’ll surely come out to rescue us.” Duan Jiude had relaxed thoroughly. He trusted his divination.

He’d never made any wrong calculations since he inherited the secret technique, and he could anticipate any danger.

Just now he’d gotten a great divination. As he associated it with his guess about the gravestone, he felt certain that Xu Que and Buttface were alive. This was why he’d quickly assumed that Xu Que would save them.

This deduction was quite reasonable. Their group didn’t have anyone who could contend against a person at the Heaven Celestial stage. However, if Xu Que rushed out, he would be able to defeat even several of the Sea Tribe experts at the Heaven Celestial stage.

“Duan Jiude, are you sure that...he’s still alive?” Liu Jingning didn’t care about her injuries, and she looked in surprise at Duan Jiude.

Duan Jiude smiled and nodded as he replied, “That’s right, I understand both of them, and they won’t easily die. For example, if you think calmly about the tombstone, you’ll realize that it doesn’t conform to that lad Xu Que’s usual conduct.”

She shook her head as she said, “I’ve also read the words on the gravestone, and I agree that they don’t conform to his usual conduct. But this isn’t enough to prove anything. In addition, you’ve also seen the ice coffin underground. Did he really get to break free of the restraints of the Heavenly Book of Taiyi?”

Liu Jingning had a hard time accepting that Xu Que was alive, but she was definitely thinking about the possibility.

She recalled Xu Que’s abnormal indifferent attitude as he entered the Celestial Burial Valley, and she became restless as she thought about the prophecy Xu Que had gotten in the Heaven Continent, as well as the ashes in Xuanyuan Wanrong’s ice coffin.

The combination of the Worldly Furnace, the Death Prophecy, and the Heavenly Book of Taiyi could have pushed Xu Que to the end of his road.

This was ironclad evidence, and Duan Jiude’s words, “doesn’t conform to that lad Xu Que’s usual conduct”, weren’t convincing. Even though people hoped to think of the best, they still shouldn’t deceive themselves.

There was a large difference between ignorance and confidence!

SIGH! “What you’ve said is wrong. If the gravestone isn’t enough to prove that the lad is all right, isn’t my divination convincing? We are facing a severe situation, and it wouldn’t conform to the divination unless that lad Xu Que comes back,” Duan Jiude said resolutely.

“This is...” Liu Jingning was at a loss for words, and the ice-cold look on her face seemed to soften.

This time, she really had gotten some hope thanks to Duan Jiude’s divination.

In the current situation, it was only Xu Que who could contend against the Sea Tribe’s commander-in-chief who was at the peak of the Heaven Celestial stage.

“Ha, ha, you can set your mind at ease. I’m sure about this. All the clues point to a good outcome.” Duan Jiude wore a composed look and put his hands on his hips, stuck out his chest, and raised his head. He’d recovered his former pride and arrogance.

The Exploding Heavens Faction members looked at him respectfully.

The Eight-headed Serpent’s face was also filled with reverence. “Mr. Duan, you are too awesome.”

“I keep a low-profile,” Duan Jiude said, with a hypocritical look as he waved his hand at the serpent. He continued with a smile, “I can even learn what’ll happen later. After the Sea Tribe attacks us strongly, we’ll suffer casualties, and, at the last critical juncture, that lad and Buttface will rush out and carry out a tyrannical slaughter.”

“Wow! That’s so amazing!” The crowd exclaimed in admiration.

“It’s a great divination, and it figures out so many things.” The Eight-headed Serpent’s face was filled with surprise.

Duan Jiude continued to wave his hand hypocritically as he enjoyed the crowd’s praise, and he said, “I should keep a low profile.”

However, his divination technique had just figured out part of the truth, not the whole truth. The information about the next developments of the situation was just made up by Duan Jiude.

.....

Meanwhile, in the distance, at the location of the Spirit Core, lots of things were happening.

In a pitch-black cave, several thousand meters beneath the ground surface, there was a palace that shone with a bright radiance. It contained dense Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Qi that had turned into a large Celestial River.

The river didn’t have water. It was composed of twisting dragons that were all formed by Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Qi.

Xu Que was sitting cross-legged in the center of the dragons as firm as a boulder. He didn’t budge at all.

49 days had passed, and his body had already collapsed and those small innumerable wounds in it had been torn apart and become quite large. He didn’t have a human shape any longer.

Even his second-rate Holy Physique couldn’t bear the attack of this terrifying Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Qi.

“F*ck! This lad is really a demon. Even I couldn’t bear this, yet he can still persist until now,” Buttface was standing outside the palace, looking in alarm at Xu Que.

Buttface had already escaped from the palace ten days ago. It was probably because he couldn’t bear it any longer, yet it might also have been because he didn’t want to endure pain. This was why he gave up on cultivation and slipped away.

Xuanyuan Wanrong still stood in the same place as before and didn’t leave. She observed attentively Xu Que’s situation.

At this moment, shock and disbelief had already welled up in her heart innumerable times.

During these 49 days, all living beings in the Celestial Burial Valley, as well as the million Sea Tribe people, had all been sacrificed by the Worldly Furnace and turned into boundless Celestial Core Power that converged in the Spirit Core.

Xu Que was being attacked by the berserk dragons, but he stood there firmly because he didn’t want to stop his cultivation.

She had observed Xu Que’s body, which had been attacked and destroyed day after day. Every time a wound was torn and enlarged, Xuanyuan Wanrong’s heart would shiver.

This body had already been torn apart by the Celestial Core Power and Spiritual Qi, and the pain borne by him wasn’t at the same level as the pain brought by a sword.

The crux was that even though these wounds were torn again and again, they still continued absorbing Celestial Core Power crazily.

This wasn’t any different than sprinkling salt atop wounds, and this would just increase his pain.

Xuanyuan Wanrong didn’t expect this at all. Xu Que’s ruthlessness toward his own body didn’t conform to the impression she had of him.

This was a street thug-like shameless youth, yet he’d suddenly turned into a resolute youth with great willpower. The change was too great!

THUMP!

At this moment, a crisp sound emanated from Xu Que’s Dantian.

Soon after, his whole body’s aura rose in intensity drastically.

“F*ck! Impressive, this lad has achieved a breakthrough again. F*ck, he still wants to continue,” Buttface was cursing. He was quite envious!

Xuanyuan Wanrong still kept her silence and continued observing Xu Que. Her gaze had turned softer little by little, and her approval of him was apparent in her gaze. She also revealed a pretty smile.

This lad wasn’t an untalented person, and he would turn into a great dragon upon getting a suitable opportunity.
