The boy with the sword twitched his mouth and frowned.
Looking at the empty treasure house and this unfamiliar face, his expression gradually changed from dullness to anger. He pulled out his sharp sword and pointed it at Xu Que with a "crack" sound, and asked sternly: "Who are you? How could you? You dare to break into our sect's treasure pavilion without permission."
Xu Que glanced at the last remaining Divine Movement Escape Talisman in the system package and smiled calmly:
"Brother, you don't even know who I am, so you dare to point a sword at me? Do you know that what I hate most in my life is when people point guns... uh, point swords at my head?"
"Ding, congratulations to the host 'Xu Que' for successfully pretending to be cool and gaining 1 point of pretending."
The boy with the sword was stunned for a moment and said confusedly: "I didn't point at your head!"
Then he woke up again and angrily said: "Stop talking nonsense, you dare to break into my sect's treasure house, you are simply asking for death."
As soon as the words fell, the sword in the young man's hand buzzed, the sword chimed, red light shot out, and he rushed towards Xu Que with the fiery fire energy.
Damn, this guy is not a good guy! Much more powerful than that little fairy, it looks like she is at least in the foundation building stage! But why are these immortal cultivators so evil? They start fighting whenever they disagree, and they are so ruthless.
Xu Que cursed secretly and immediately mobilized his spiritual energy to fight back, but he felt something was wrong with this movement.
A huge flow of air suddenly surged out of his body, circling around the eight extraordinary meridians, as if it was about to tear his body apart, like millions of needles pricking him. Xu Que instantly trembled and fell to the ground.
"ah… "
Xu Que held his lower abdominal dantian, feeling as if he was about to be torn apart by the spiritual energy, and he was about to explode and die.
Why is this happening
Xu Que's face suddenly turned pale when he thought of the large pile of pills he had swallowed earlier.
It's over, it's over now.
After taking so many elixirs, it turns out that it’s not that they don’t work, but that they need to be catalyzed by themselves.
He didn't even try to circulate his spiritual energy after taking it just now. He didn't take action until he was forced by the boy with the sword. In the end, he catalyzed the pile of pills at the same time.
"Bold thief, what tricks are you playing?"
Zhang Suliang looked at Xu Que suspiciously, and saw that he was covering his lower abdomen, and there were dozens of empty pill bottles scattered next to him. He was instantly moved, and said with a look of horror on his face: "You... you just took these pills." Have you taken all the medicine?"
Xu Que no longer had the energy to answer him. He curled up and struggled on the ground with his facial features distorted, and his face became increasingly pale.
Even if there are five spiritual roots in the body, there is no way to completely digest this huge spiritual energy.
Zhang Suliang was also stunned. These elixirs... were all used as monthly payments to outer disciples! An ordinary Juyuan Pill is enough for a Qi-training disciple to practice for more than a month.
But the guy in front of me swallowed dozens of pills in one breath, and actually ate both the Gui Yuan Pill and the Body Tempering Pill used in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Could it be that he wanted to commit suicide out of fear of guilt
"Ding, it has been detected that the spiritual energy in the host 'Xu Que' is overloaded and the body is damaged. Do you want to enable the automatic repair function? Note that the automatic repair function requires 1 point of pretentiousness every hour."
The system prompt sounded in his mind. Xu Que didn't even think about it and immediately responded with his consciousness: "Hurry up and help me get rid of these spiritual energy."
"Ding, the automatic repair function was successfully turned on, and a little pretentiousness was deducted."
"Ding, it's been detected that the "Ancient Five Elements Jue" that the host has learned is only the elementary chapter and cannot digest all the spiritual energy. You need to purchase the intermediate chapter."
Uh-huh!
With the automatic repair function turned on, Xu Que suddenly felt that the severe pain in his body was greatly reduced. At the same time, a light screen interface popped up in front of him, which was the mall list in the system.
This was the first time he checked the system mall, which contained a dense list of options, including various magic tricks and magic weapons.
But when he saw the price of the middle-level chapter of "The Ancient Five Elements", he almost spit out his blood.
"The Intermediate Chapter requires 100 points of pretense? Damn it, why don't you go and grab it! I worked hard all day to pretend, but in the end I can't even afford a magic formula." Xu Que immediately yelled angrily.
Zhang Suliang suddenly frowned and was about to speak when Xu Que's expression suddenly changed drastically and he let out another scream.
"ah… "
The cry was extremely miserable. It was not an act, but the automatic repair function could no longer keep up with the destructive speed of the spiritual energy. He had taken too many pills, and his mortal bones could not bear it.
"Instead of dying in such pain, why not give you a happy life!"
Zhang Suliang couldn't bear it, clenched his sword tightly, and decided to give Xu Que a good time.
Seeing this, Xu Que hurriedly gathered up the last bit of energy and gritted his teeth and said: "Don't worry about me, everyone is destined to die. It may be heavier than Mount Tai, or lighter than a feather. If I don't go to hell, who will, ah..."
After the words fell, there was only a muffled sound of "whoosh", and Xu Que disappeared without a trace. It looked like he really exploded and died. His soul was destroyed, and not even his physical body remained.
Zhang Suliang opened his mouth wide and couldn't recover for a long time. He seemed to be shocked by Xu Que's heroic words before his death.
…
However, Xu Que did not die. He was just afraid that he would be killed by Zhang Suliang's sword if he stayed there, so he decisively crushed the divine escape talisman and fled, but he just pretended to be cool before leaving.
But this pretentiousness is quite ordinary, and the system still rewards a little pretentiousness point. Compared with the 100 pretentiousness points required for the intermediate chapter of "The Ancient Five Elements", it is simply a drop in the bucket.
The key is that Xu Que is still turning on the automatic repair function, which consumes a little pretentiousness every hour, but his aura has never been reduced. Instead, it is getting bigger and bigger, like strong liquor, with full stamina.
Spending it like this is simply not an option.
Xu Que was teleported to a mountain stream, with his back leaning against a big tree. He propped himself up, summoned the pretense system, and a light screen interface appeared in front of him:
"Host: Xu Que
Realm: Tenth level of Qi training stage (first glimpse of the door)
Experience value: 0/1000
Pretending value: 15 points
Kung Fu: Preliminary Chapter of "The Ancient Five Elements Technique"
Occupation: None
Status: Consort of the Huo Yuan Kingdom in the Eastern Barren Continent
Current vitality status: Precarious.
…”
Looking at the last line of words that appeared, the corner of Xu Que's mouth twitched fiercely.
Being in critical condition is not a good thing. It is like getting a critical illness notice in the hospital. It is basically a judgment of death!
"Damn the system, you promised to take me to show off and take me flying. Please help me find a solution!" Xu Que said with pain on his face, covering his lower abdomen.
"Ding, the detection is complete. Based on the host's current pretentiousness and life status, this system has found a solution for you..."
Upon hearing this, Xu Que's eyes suddenly lit up, and his life was full of hope.
But the next moment, his eyes became dark again.
The system automatically pops up the mall interface, and there is a magic book called "Self-cutting of Meridians" hanging in it!
