Xu Que had pointed casually, but he had actually found the burial place of the Sea Tribe's almighty being.
In order to enter the Imperial Mausoleum of the Fire Empire, Xu Que had exchanged for a memory technique related to grave robbing from the System. He had inherited all kinds of Feng Shui Precious Techniques, which allowed him to see through the terrain and find the location of the Dragon Vein easily.
Now, he had used the Feng Shui Precious Techniques, and his compass was the Six Rens Earth Plate, which was a Celestial Artifact.
When these two items were combined, the effect of Xu Que's Feng Shui Precious Techniques was magnified. He found the center of the terrain in the Celestial Burial Valley easily. It was the place where the Sea Tribe's almighty being could absorb the power of the Blood Sacrifice.
However, it wasn't easy to dig it out.
Under the guidance of Xu Que and the leadership of Buttface and Duan Jiude, the Exploding Heavens Faction's members, who were experts in grave robbing, the members of the Exploding Heavens Faction joined in. Each of them was given a special shovel, and they started digging the ground.
However, after half a day had passed, they had only dug a tunnel that was dozens of meters long. They were still several thousand meters away from the almighty being's tomb. In comparison, the dozens of meters they had dug were just a drop in the bucket.
"Little brat, we can't go on like this. When we reach the tomb, you will be dead," Buttface was so tired that he stuck out his tongue and shouted at Xu Que.
Xu Que furrowed his brows. He was quite worried about this efficiency.
As a matter of fact, he had also joined in. However, this place was too weird. The ground was hard beyond imagination, and every piece of soil contained Spiritual Qi. This eliminated the excavators and other tools in the System store, and he could only rely on cultivators to dig.
However, if they continued digging at this speed, he would probably die here, just as Buttface had said.
"Should I take a risk? Should I use my body to confront the Worldly Furnace and force my way through? "Xu Que was tempted.
After all, he had a second-rate Holy Physique. Moreover, as he was standing in the periphery, the others could feel their Qi and blood were greatly affected, and their Spiritual Power was flowing out of their bodies.
Even though Mo Junchen, who possessed the first-rate Hell King's Prison Suppression Physique, was still affected, it was negligible.
As for Xu Que himself, although he also felt the power of the world, he was the only one who was truly unaffected.
Of course, this was also because they were currently at the edge of the periphery. If they continued forward and truly stepped into the range of the Furnace of Heaven and Earth, they would definitely be greatly affected. Xu Que himself would not be an exception.
But at the same time, this made him realize something. The stronger one's physical body was, the more one would be able to withstand the effects of the Heaven and Earth Smelt.
Then … Could he try to use his second-rate Holy Body to resist the influence of this place? Before he was sacrificed, he could dig into the ground. Then, he could take advantage of the fact that the Almighty of the Sea Race had yet to awaken and directly drag him out from the ground and cook him into a pot of seafood soup?
As soon as this idea popped up, Xu Que really wanted to give it a try. He did not take risks easily. When there was a shortcut, he would definitely not take the long way around. When there was a loophole, he would definitely take it.
But if he was forced into a corner, he would transform into a gambler. The ruthlessness in his bones made him willing to gamble with his life. This was because if he did not gamble, he would also lose his life. So, why not give it a try?
"Stop! There's no need to dig anymore!" Xu Que opened his mouth and shouted for everyone to stop.
Even though they were only at the periphery of the furnace, everyone had already dug into the region of the Furnace of Heaven and Earth. However, since they were underground, the effects of the blood sacrifice were greatly reduced. However, the hardness of the sand still consumed a lot of their Spiritual Power. At this moment, many people were already exhausted.
Hearing Xu Que's voice, everyone stopped what they were doing and turned their heads to look at Xu Que, who was standing at the entrance of the cave.
"Come out!" Xu Que waved at everyone. His expression was calm and surprisingly indifferent. "This time, I will do it myself!"
Do it himself?
Everyone was startled.
Mo Junchen sighed slightly. He had already guessed what Xu Que wanted to do.
Ryu Jingning frowned and looked worried. "You want to barge in alone?"
"That's the only way. I originally wanted to be more relaxed, but based on the current situation, I'm afraid I won't be able to relax anymore!" Xu Que said with a relaxed smile. His tone was very calm, and one could not tell that he was nervous at all.
However, his smile made Ryu Jingning feel even more uneasy.
Given Xu Que's personality, if it was something he was confident about, his smile would be filled with confidence. It was a kind of confidence that made people feel unbelievable. In the end, he would always be able to do it and create miracles.
If it was something he was not confident about, this guy would frown and look serious. Of course, sometimes when it was something he was very confident about, he would pretend to be very serious.
However, this time, he was too calm and relaxed. It was as if he did not care about the Furnace of Heaven and Earth at all. This was very different from his usual behavior.
This was why Ryu Jingning had faintly discerned something.
It was obvious that this guy was not confident at all, and that was why he was behaving like this. He wanted to reassure the people around him.
"Is there no other way?" Ryu Jingning muttered to herself for a moment and asked softly.
She knew the answer in her heart. If there was another way, Xu Que would not want to take risks more than anyone else.
But this time, there was really no other way. They would need at least ten days to dig through the ground. If they retreated now, it would be tantamount to letting the prophecy come true. Xuanyuan Wanrong would be devoured by the Celestial Burial Valley, and Xu Que would also die with her.
This was why the only way out was to risk his life and charge in to give it a try.
"You can set your mind at ease. This isn't the first time something like this has happened. I will come back." Xu Que smiled and extended his hand to rub Ryu Jingning's head.
Ryu Jingning was a little flustered. Not long ago, this youngster, who had always been a kid in her eyes, had grown up and become stronger. He was strong enough to support her.
But now, he was going to risk his life to do something unknown. Moreover, it was going to happen in front of her. This was really unacceptable to Ryu Jingning.
"Damn! Little brat, I will go in with you." At this time, Buttface gnashed his teeth and shouted loudly.
His words made Xu Que, Duan Jiude, and the others open their eyes wide.
That's not right. When did this fool become so loyal to his friends?
"What the f * ck are you looking at? Little brat, if you weren't really going to die this time, I wouldn't want to take this risk. If you want to confront it with your body, I can also do that. We can join hands to dig it. It will be much faster than digging it alone," Buttface said seriously. It seemed as if he was going to risk everything. It was rare to see him being serious.
This caused Duan Jiude and the others to be moved.
Duan Jiude patted Buttface and said in a trembling voice, "Teacher Buttface, you … you've made me look at you in a new light."
He was very clear that this was not a joke. Once Xu Que and Buttface went in, they might never come back.
In the past, the combination of two people and one dog, Xu Que and Buttface, had dominated the world. Even though they had cheated each other, these days had been extraordinary.
Thinking of this, Duan Jiude's heart was filled with endless reluctance and sadness.
"Teacher Duan, don't be like this. I'm also afraid that this little brat won't come back. It's better to take a gamble. The odds of winning will be much higher." Buttface patted Duan Jiude's shoulder and said sincerely.
The man and the dog used to dislike each other. Later, they became birds of a feather and appreciated each other. Now, it was very likely that they would be separated by life and death, so they didn't care about fighting.
"Teacher Buttface, this old man will wait here for your triumphant return. You once said that you would teach this old man a song. Don't go back on your words!" Duan Jiude was filled with emotion, and his hands were trembling.
Buttface forced a smile and patted Duan Jiude's shoulder casually. "Don't worry. When I come back, I will definitely teach you the song 'Harnessing the Horse Pole.' This song is majestic and full of spirit. In the future, we will sing it together and dominate the world. It will definitely be a song that will go down in history!"
Xu Que almost laughed when he heard this. Buttface could even sing 'Harnessing the Horse Pole'? It seemed like this fool had really learned everything on Earth!
"Little brat, I will wait for you here. If you don't come back, I will go in to look for you!" Ryu Jingning looked at Xu Que and said softly at this time.
Her voice was very low, but it was filled with determination.
Xu Que was stunned a bit. A gentle breeze blew the hair on his forehead, and a smile appeared on his handsome face. "OK, I will definitely come back!"
After saying this, he looked around and fixed his gaze on the outside of the Celestial Burial Valley. He sighed with emotion. "Time really flies! I really miss everything in the past. Time flies, and I didn't expect that I would see such a scene today. "
Ryu Jingning looked at him calmly.
The rest of the people in this area also became silent and looked at Xu Que with complicated feelings.
They all knew that this could be the Faction Leader's last words, and it could be his last words!
"Little She-Devil!" Suddenly, Xu Que turned his head to look at Ryu Jingning and said with a faint smile, "Do you know which year I like the most?"
"Which year?" Ryu Jingning also smiled, and the scene where she had reunited with Xu Que in the East Continent for the first time appeared in her mind.
She felt that this was probably the year Xu Que wanted to talk about.
Xu Que curled up the corners of his mouth and revealed a mischievous smile. "I will love you for 10,000 years!"
After saying this, he turned around and waved at the crowd. Then he strode resolutely toward the depths of the Celestial Burial Valley.
The crowd was dumbfounded, and they were convinced. They exclaimed inwardly that he was awesome! Such flirtatious words of love! As expected of the Faction Leader!
Ryu Jingning also stood in the same place, and a beautiful smile blossomed on her face. But dew-like tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes as she silently watched the figure disappear into the distance.
At this moment, everyone was silent, and no one said anything. The disappearing figures of the man and the dog were like a heavy stone that weighed heavily on their hearts.
The Celestial Burial Valley's Worldly Furnace was a blood sacrifice for all living beings!
An almighty being of the Sea Tribe, who had been asleep for tens of thousands of years, was buried under the furnace, and his power was comparable to the Human Clan's Celestial Emperor when he was alive.
Would they really be able to come back after leaving?
The crowd didn't have an answer.
At this moment, Xu Que and Buttface, who had already entered the range of the Worldly Furnace, were already close to the Spirit Core Mountain Range.
The man and the dog didn't have any abnormalities with their bodies, but their blood and Qi were depleting quickly, and their Celestial Core Power was evaporating unceasingly. Buttface might still be fine, but if Xu Que hadn't activated the System's Automatic Recovery Function, he might have already died.
"ALAS! I didn't expect that the Act-Tough Saint would have such a day. I already have a second-rate Holy Physique, but I still can't do whatever I want." Xu Que sighed and turned his head to look at Buttface.
However, what he saw was Buttface's smiling face, which was as bright as a chrysanthemum flower.
F * ck!
Xu Que opened his eyes wide. It seemed like this was going to be a success.

Currently, the Exploding Heavens Faction is in first place, but we can be eliminated at any time. I hope that everyone can work together and let me drop to fourth place.
When I signed up for the competition, I made a random promise. I wrote that if I could get into the top three, I would expose a photo of me in female clothing. At that time, I really didn't think I could get into the top three, but you made trouble and got me into it.
