Whoosh!

A strand of light appeared in front of Xu Que. Suddenly, he could see glistening equipment in the System store.

Xu Que smiled. Now, the defensive Inferior Celestial Artifacts on his body were almost useless. After all, even the Inferior Celestial Artifacts couldn’t keep intact under great pressure for a long time. However, the equipment in the System store was different. Magic Resistance Equipment would be very efficient now. Also, the equipment in the store was quite cheap. As long as he could enhance his ability to resist magic, he could keep moving forward on this path.

Just like crossing his Heavenly Tribulations, he used some equipment to protect himself from being wounded by the thunder when his physique was not strong enough.

“What? Young man, why do you stop? Don't tell me you have reached your limit! Holy sh*t! Try harder! Come closer, so that we can chat conveniently!”

The dry corpse, who noticed Xu Que had stopped moving forward, couldn't help but shout at this time.

Xu Que ignored him, for he was fixing his eyes on the equipment in the System store. When the System was upgraded to Version 10.0, many items in the store were updated. He could find almost all the equipment which appeared in the web fiction and games here. Now, he tried to find equipment with high magic resistance and low prices. When he saw some equipment from several games, he couldn't help but smile.

Then, in front of the shocked eyes of the dry corpse, Xu Que waved his hand to take out a small stick from his crotch. The small stick was the Abyssal Scepter from the League of Legends, which could increase the damage of magic arts and the magic resistance of the pressure. Then he put on the Negative Cloak, the Spirit Visage, and the Mercury’s Treads. Finally, he also put on the Eye of Phoenix and the Banshee's Veil.

The Eye of Phoenix could also increase the replenishment of blood, which was quite suitable for the current situation.

After putting on the six pieces of equipment that he had gotten from the System, Xu Que felt relaxed immediately. Now the pressure, which used to be so heavy, was indiscernible!

He had only spent less than 10,000 Acting Tough Points to purchase all this, which was very cheap!

“Hah, hah, hah, I am fully recovered! Now let me walk to the end once and for all!” Xu Que roared in high spirits.

The dry corpse was shocked by Xu Que’s yelling. A strand of light appeared in his hollow eyes. Then he asked in surprise, “What are you doing?”

“I am using a trainer!” Xu Que said proudly as he stepped forward.

Flop!

Flop!

Flop!

He walked five steps without stopping, and his body was still intact!

The dry corpse was dumbfounded. His dry jaw almost fell to the ground. “My God! How…could this be? How did you do that?” he asked in surprise.

Xu Que said with a wicked smile, “The Exploding Heavens Faction is omnipotent!”

“The Exploding Heavens Faction?” the dry corpse asked with puzzlement. It seemed he had never heard of such a sect.

Bang!

At the same time, a dull sound came from Xu Que’s body. The Abyssal Scepter and the Mercury’s Treads exploded at the same time. Horrible pressure gushed in immediately. Xu Que changed his expression as he purchased another three Eyes of Phoenix from the System store.

In the peripheral area, the equipment could resist the pressure. However, several cheap equipments had been crushed by the pressure. Xu Que had to replace all of them with the Eye of Phoenix, so that he could enhance his magic resistance and the speed of blood replenishment. In front of the shocked eyes of the dry corpse, Xu Que put several ornaments which were like eyes on his body. Then he walked another six steps casually and stopped in front of the dry corpse directly.

“This…” The jaw of the dry corpse, who was totally dumbfounded, had fallen to the ground.

When he reached this position, he had run out of his pills and elixirs. Then he spent seven days and seven nights to heal his wounds. Now, this young man who had just reached the Human Celestial Stage arrived at his position within one hour! This path would become more and more difficult for the others who trod on it. This guy just went faster and faster on it, and he didn’t stop to take a break, which was totally unbelievable!

But the dry corpse knew those strange ornaments and green armor were the key factors for Xu Que to realize such a big progress. He was totally puzzled by Xu Que’s appearance.

Xu Que’s body was still intact and full of energy. And it had no sign of being dried up at all. He was still a handsome cultivator!

“Holy sh*t! What the hell did you do?” The dry corpse couldn’t help but shout excitedly. His reaction was quite normal. After all, nobody had realized such progress without drying up his body. It was just so enviable.

“Heh, heh, I've told you I am using a trainer!” Xu Que said with a wicked smile.

After checking the integrity of the equipment on his body, he continued to move forward.

“Use a trainer? What do you mean?” The dry corpse asked with puzzlement.

“I am cheating!” Xu Que said as he walked several steps.

“How could you…cheat here?” The dry corpse was totally confused. This divine place was set up by the God of Hell. How could someone cheat here?

Bang!

At the same time, Xu Que’s Spirit Visage and Banshee's Veil were crushed again. Without any hesitation, Xu Que replaced them with a Witch’s Cloak and a new Spirit Visage. Instantly, his magic resistance was enhanced again. But he had reached his limit.

He was quite serious now, for he was not able to enhance his magic resistance anymore. From now on, he had to spend a lot of Acting Tough Points to resist the pressure.

Whoosh!

One step, two steps, three steps…

Xu Que walked forward rapidly. Now, the corpses beside the path had become skeletons.

But he had only covered two-thirds of his path.

Bang!

Suddenly, the four Eye of Phoenixes on his body exploded at the same time.

When the pressure gushed toward him, he put on new equipment to maintain his magic resistance. Then he walked another step forward.

Bang!

This time, the Witch’s Cloak and the Spirit Visage exploded. Four Eye of Phoenixes cracked. Xu Que replaced them with new equipment without any hesitation. Then he moved forward again.

Now, whenever he stepped out, his equipment would explode. At last, six equipments would explode at the same time. Xu Que had to replace them with new equipment again and again, which meant a lot of Acting Tough Points had been consumed.

The price for six equipments was over 10,000 Acting Tough Points. So he had to spend over 10,000 Acting Tough Points for each step.

His Acting Tough Points were being consumed rapidly as he moved forward.

But the result was always worth the effort! After moving forward for more than ten steps, he had covered four-fifths of this path eventually. The end was just in front of him.

Phew!

Xu Que let out a sigh and smiled with difficulty, “Finally…I am almost there!”
