"Boom!"
Amidst the muffled sound, Xu Que just stood there, motionless. The red ray from his chest, however, shot directly at the giant golden puppet!
The powerful high-temperature ray instantly melted the metal shell of the puppet and gradually penetrated it!
"Thump!" The gigantic golden puppet suddenly fell from the sky and fell to the ground. It suddenly stopped moving forward. The Spiritual Qi magic art that was about to erupt from its chest dimmed in an instant!
Everyone was stunned!
What's going on?
Why did the giant golden puppet … stop all of a sudden?
Everyone was puzzled. Their line of sight was blocked by Xu Que's Iron Man, so they couldn't figure out what was happening in the tunnel.
"Clang!"
Suddenly, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground could be heard.
Everyone's faces froze. They thought to themselves, "We're doomed! The puppet must be going to attack again!"
However, the situation was not as they had expected!
After the sound of the object falling to the ground, there was no more movement in the tunnel.
Then, the giant steel body of Xu Que suddenly started to make clanging sounds. The mechanical parts reassembled and gradually shrank, returning to its original normal size!
When his body returned to its original size, he could no longer block the tunnel. Everyone could now see the situation inside clearly.
Instantly, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air and were completely dumbfounded!
The gigantic golden puppet that they had thought to be invincible had been sliced into two halves at the chest. The cut was very even, and it was still emitting wisps of white smoke. Its entire shoulder and head had fallen to the corner of the passageway!
At this moment, everyone finally understood that the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground was not the golden puppet's attack, but the sound of its head falling to the ground!
Everyone looked at Xu Que's back in disbelief, their hearts filled with horror!
"How … how did he do that?"
"He didn't move an inch just now. How could he kill this giant golden puppet so easily?"
"This is too scary! What did he do just now?"
…
Everyone was extremely shocked. They also remembered what Xu Que had said earlier about giving up both his arms and legs in pursuit of a fair fight!
But now, it seemed that even if this guy gave up his arms and legs, it wouldn't be a fair fight!
You inexplicably killed him in one move. With this kind of strength, how is this fair …
In the Imperial Mausoleum, many cultivators had clearly seen the scene from the Heaven and Earth Mirror!
They saw the red line that burst out from Xu Que's chest. It was like a long and thin sword that directly pierced through the golden puppet's body, cutting through iron as if it were mud!
This kind of terrifying red line made everyone extremely shocked!
However, the eyes of the Golden Emperor and some of the others lit up!
The giant golden puppet had been dealt with, which meant that they could pass this round!
In just one day, Xu Que alone had completely broken through the barrier that had been unbreakable for the past few decades!
"Looks like … we're not far from success!" The Golden Emperor was getting excited!
All these years, in order to mine the Dragon Veins, he had thought of countless ways to no avail.
However, he had never expected that his plan would be successful because of Xu Que's strength. This made it difficult for him to suppress the excitement in his heart.
…
At the same time, in the Imperial Mausoleum …
The Seventh Princesses, the Third Prince, and the others had already regained their senses.
At this moment, they realized that the points Xu Que had accumulated were already inestimable.
This also meant that the Third Prince had once again won first place in this round. Furthermore, it was an unsurpassable first place.
His position as the Crown Prince was secured!
"Young Hero Xu, I will never be able to repay your kindness. I will remember it for the rest of my life. If you need anything in the future, just tell me!" The Third Prince promised.
Xu Que continued to wear the Iron Man armor. He turned around and said calmly, "Actually, my request is very simple. You want to mine the Dragon Veins, so do I. However, I don't want the Dragon Veins. I want the Spiritual Herb inside. I hope you won't fight me for it, or else you will regret it!"
"The Spiritual Herb inside the Dragon Veins? Isn't that the Genesis Metal Herb? "
The Third Prince and the others were stunned when they heard this.
They had heard of this Spiritual Herb, but they had never seen it before.
However, Xu Que had actually said that he wanted the Spiritual Herb. This was a big deal!
The Third Prince was instantly put in a difficult position. The decision was not up to him!
Seeing the Third Prince's expression, Xu Que could not help but shake his head. "Don't think too much. There's nothing to be troubled about. Anyway, I'm not asking for your opinion. I'm just informing you that I want the Spiritual Herb! "
Wow!
As soon as this was said, everyone was in an uproar, both inside and outside the Imperial Mausoleum.
How domineering!
This was simply too domineering!
To say such words in front of so many people, and in front of the Emperor and the Third Prince, it was truly a bold move!
However, unexpectedly, the Golden Emperor was not angry. Instead, he smiled and did not speak.
In his opinion, the Dragon Veins were obviously more important than the Spiritual Herb.
As for his reputation and whatnot, he did not care too much about it.
Moreover, without Xu Que, the Dragon Veins would probably not be excavated for decades.
…
"What are you waiting for? Line up and follow me into the mausoleum!"
At the same time, Xu Que, who was in the Imperial Mausoleum, had already activated the Iron Man Battle Suit and flew into the air, heading towards the passageway.
The people behind him came back to their senses and their mouths twitched.
Damn, since when did we have to listen to your orders?
Why should we line up to follow you into the mausoleum?
Don't think that we have to listen to you just because you dealt with these puppets alone!
Most people were very dissatisfied, especially the Second Prince and the others. Their faces were gloomy.
However …
In the end, they still had to line up to enter the main mausoleum!
After all, the passageway was only so big. It was impossible for a group of people to squeeze in. Therefore, they could only line up to enter.
Pfft!
The Seventh Princess looked at the group of people entering the passageway unwillingly and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. Her beautiful eyes looked at the back of Xu Que, who was walking at the front, and she laughed softly, "Young Master Xu is really an interesting person!"
After that, she and the other princes also stepped into the passageway.
Finally, under Xu Que's leadership, some of the puppets that slipped through the net were wiped out by Xu Que one by one. All of them were destroyed with one move.
The entire passageway came to an end. The people did not do anything and just watched Xu Que show off his skills.
However, when they reached the end of the passageway, just as Xu Que was about to take a step forward, the Third Prince suddenly exclaimed, "Young Hero Xu, wait a moment!"
"What's wrong?" Xu Que paused and turned around to ask.
"According to the markings on our map of the Imperial Mausoleum, the next stage should be a terrifying restrictive barrier with many traps. Should we stop and observe first?" The Third Prince said in a low voice.
The rest of the people nodded. The map of the Imperial Mausoleum had been made public before, so they were very familiar with these stages.
The next stage should be a restrictive barrier that could kill an Infant Transformation Stage cultivator.
However, when Xu Que heard this, he was immediately puzzled.
This was because he was standing at the end of the passageway and could see the situation in the chamber outside the passageway.
