Chapter 1480: The Devil King Had Returned!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
DING! “One of the targets is on the verge of death. There are currently three revenge endings to choose from.”
“First. Kill the target and get 500 million Intermediate Experience Points. (If this option is chosen, after activating the Experience Mode, it is estimated that you will upgrade a realm and become a True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven.)”
“Second. Kill the target and get 100 Character Attribute Points. (If this option is chosen, after activating the Attribute Mode, your strength, agility, stamina, and charm will increase.)”
“Third. Extract the soul of the target, and force the implantation of the soul seed. (If this option is chosen, you can permanently control the other party, but they cannot upgrade anymore.)”
The System beep sounded in Xu Que’s mind, and several mode options appeared on the System interface.
Xu Que was momentarily confused. There was the opportunity to choose the mode that gave him experience points after he killed, and there was even a change to the value of the Experience Points, which now had different levels.
But this option wasn’t all that exciting. What he was really surprised by were the last two options.
One was the Attribute Mode and the other was the Puppet Mode.
As long as the other party had been disabled, one could turn them into a puppet and permanently control them. This was a great opportunity to directly benefit from the power of a Celestial King.
Unfortunately, once the other party became a puppet, they could no longer upgrade.
In other words, if Li Xuanqi was turned into a puppet now, then he would remain as a Celestial King in the future, and he couldn’t become more advanced. When Xu Que himself became a Celestial King in the future, Li Xuanqi would lose his usefulness.
Although this function was very good, in the long run, it wouldn’t be the most valuable.
Judging by the System’s calculations, his current accumulated strength, coupled with the strength of the System, would be enough to deal with the two other Celestial Kings.
Hence, Xu Que was not in a hurry to upgrade his realm. He wanted to experience what the Attribute Mode would be like first.
Back in the old days, he had used human skin masks to increase his charm points, and the effect of this had been very obvious. If he killed Li Xuanqi and used all 100 Attribute Points on increasing charm...
“Ah, all the chicks in the world... No, I can’t, my body may become overwhelmed.”
Xu Que immediately shook his head and interrupted this train of thought.
Adding 100 points of charm was too terrifying. At most he would add 99 points, no more!
DING! “It has been detected that the host has become unrestrained. This System forcibly adopts the anti-indulgence clause and automatically defaults to the first option. Turning on the Experience Mode.”
Suddenly, the System beep sounded.
Following which, the Tough-Acting King’s Purple-Gold Rod in Xu Que’s hand suddenly started to shake.
CLANG!
All the metal blocks on the Acting-Tough King’s Purple-Gold Rod split apart instantly and started going through all kinds of permutations, eventually forming a dense sword that suddenly shot forward.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
From the clouds, a rain of swords swept down toward Li Xuanqi, piercing through his body.
After that, with a loud bang, Li Xuanqi’s entire body burst into a cloud of blood mist. Even his soul had been annihilated in the rain of the metal swords.
He, who was of the first generation of Celestial Kings and had founded the Heaven Palace Academy, had just turned into blood mist.
Absolutely all the onlookers were shocked.
From the moment when there had been a hole blasted in Li Xuanqi’s chest to this rain of swords and eventual death, the whole process had taken only a few seconds.
But that was all over now.
The onlookers were shocked and stood around, dumbfounded. Their minds had gone completely blank.
DING! “Congratulations to Host Xu Que for beheading a powerful Celestial King, reactivating the Experience Mode, and getting 500 million Intermediate Experience Points.”
DING! “Congratulations to Host Xu Que for having successfully upgraded. You are now a True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven. The next level requires 1 billion Intermediate Experience Points.”
DING! “Congratulations to Host Xu Que, who has successfully acted tough and was rewarded with 300,000 Acting Tough Points.”
These System beeps sounded in Xu Que’s mind.
“Sh*t!” Xu Que immediately yelled and became anxious.
“System, you stupid traitor. I was only imagining that just now. It was just a stupid fantasy. Do you understand what is fantasizing?”
“I didn’t really want to use all those Attribute Points to increase my charm and seduce all the chicks in the whole world. Am I, Xu Que, that kind of person? Why did you take away my choices?”
Xu Que shouted silently at the System. He was annoyed from the depths of his soul.
DING! “After calculations, taking into account the host’s bad taste, there is an 80 percent probability that the Attribute Points would have become Charm Points. According to the new protecting-escort clause, this System must ensure the safety of the host’s life and prevent the host from emptying out its body.” The System responded indifferently.
“I want to change the terms,” Xu Que said resentfully.
“The current version of the System does not give you permission to change the terms. Please upgrade the System to version 12.0!” The System quickly responded.
Xu Que was speechless!
“Upgrade! Why was there a need to upgrade? I just upgraded.”
Upgrading from version 10.0 to version 11.0 had almost used up all the Acting Tough Points that he had accumulated over the past few years. It had taken a total of 2.56 million Acting Tough Points.
If he wanted to upgrade to version 12.0, he needed to have 5.12 million Acting Tough Points.
This was so frustrating.
“Okay, I’m okay at this time. Anyway, I’m not in any hurry. There will eventually be one day where you will have to watch me as I do whatever I want.” Xu Que gritted his teeth with an unsatisfied expression on his face.
The System chose to remain silent and didn’t respond with any sharp retorts, as if it also believed that Xu Que would really do what he had promised.
“You beast, what have you done?”
At this time, the old male Celestial King of the Sage Sect shouted in anger as he stared at Xu Que with a shocked expression, his eyes full of horror.
The old female Celestial King beside him was also full of shock and disbelief.
Li Xuanqi had been far inferior to the two of them in terms of age and cultivation, but cumulatively his strength was still comparable to theirs.
But now, Xu Que had just killed Li Xuanqi in front of them with such rapidity that it had made them both scared.
A Disbanded Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven had actually killed a Celestial King. This was simply impossible for them to believe.
“Hey, why did you call me a beast? I’m very upset by the way you’ve been scolding me.”
Xu Que sneered, his cold gaze taunting the two Celestial Kings of the Sage Sect, and a corner of his mouth raised in a scornful smile. “Now, I’ll let you two experience what it is like to be treated like beasts.”
BOOM!
As soon as he’d finished speaking, Xu Que’s figure started moving again, and his whole body rushed forward.
The revenge mechanism hadn’t ended. Even though it was continuously consuming Acting Tough Points at the rate of ten points per second, he hadn’t experienced any loss in Acting Tough Points after killing Li Xuanqi, and in fact had even gained quite a lot of points.
This left Xu Que without any pressures and made him desperately want to kill these two Celestial Kings of the Sage Sect.
Now that he’d gotten the System’s Experience Mode, in addition to the new Attribute Mode and Puppet Mode, Xu Que’s long-lost desire for upgrading had returned again.
The unbridled Xu Que, who back in the old days at the Five Elements Mountain and the Four Great Continents, had turned all the cultivators into live hunting targets had now returned.
The Devil King had returned!
