Chapter 1271: The Ancient Battlefield of Divinities

The next day was a sunny day. After sitting on the ground with his legs crossed for a whole night, Xu Que stood up and stretched himself as he looked around suspiciously. The aura that had been spying on him secretly for the whole night had disappeared!

Wow! It seems you are going to hide yourself again! No way! It is unnecessary to hide in this way! Does it mean you have given up your plan of a sneak attack? Xu Que murmured to himself and shook his head. He didn’t want to waste his time in thinking about it. Anyway, he had made up his mind to punish Yi Zhong and his underlings. He wouldn’t be intimidated by them no matter what they were going to do. His physique was strong enough to withstand a sneak attack of a cultivator at the Golden Celestial Stage.

When he opened the door and walked out, a female apprentice of the Jade Lake walked up to greet him. Apparently, he had become a distinguished guest of the Jade Lake. However, this treatment was nothing spectacular for Xu Que. Now, only something really precious could impress him. For example, as cultivators who treated each other with all sincerity, they should set aside the gender differences by taking a bath together, which could enhance their friendship remarkably! It was a pity that this was impossible.

“Alas! Too bad…” Xu Que sighed as he walked into the peach tree garden. To his surprise, he didn’t see any apprentices of the Jade Lake in the garden. He only found Bai Cailing who was standing in a pavilion. It seemed she had been waiting for him for a long time. When Bai Cailing saw Xu Que, she saluted him with a faint smile. “Elder Xu, good morning!” She said in a low voice.

“My daughter-in-law…oh, sorry, Holy Virgin, what brings you here? Are you waiting for me?” Xu Que asked seriously.

“Yes! I am going to go away for a few days. So, I came here to say good-bye to you. Also, I have another issue to tell you about!” Bai Cailing replied.

“Okay! What is it?” Xu Que didn’t pay much attention to Bai Cailing’s words. An idea came to him suddenly. “By the way, Holy Virgin, I didn’t see the young man from the Divine Farmer Clan for the past few days!”

Bai Cailing was stunned a bit, as if she didn’t expect Xu Que would mention Yi Zhong. She replied, “Elder Xu, they left last night. In fact, this is also related to the thing I wanted to tell you. Last night, we got news about Buttface and Duan Jiude who are your son’s good friends. They have appeared. I guess your son could also be with them!”

“Oh? I know them! But why is this related to Yi Zhong?” Xu Que was shocked. Does it mean Buttface and Duan Jiude also used to fool Yi Zhong?

“Because all of them are in the Ancient Battlefield of Divinities now! And I will also leave for that place at this time!” Bai Cailing answered. Xu Que raised his eyebrows. It turned out Buttface and Duan Jiude really went all out for fortunes. It seemed the Ancient Battlefield of Divinities was an extraordinary place. Maybe it was another God of Hell’s Realm!

“Elder Xu, you should know the flames of war raged across the land in the age of divinities. Many deities were killed at that time. A place in our Tianxiang Celestial Realm used to be a battlefield. Places like this could also be found in other Celestial Realms. The battlefield in the Tianxiang Celestial Realm was deeply buried underground long ago and nobody could find it. Several years ago, it was found by Buttface and Duan Jiude, who managed to find ancient inheritances in it,” Bai Cailing continued.

Now I get it! The truth suddenly dawned on Xu Que. He knew Buttface and Duan Jiude had gotten an inheritance. However, they didn’t mention where and how they found it. It turned out it was from this Ancient Battlefield of Divinities!

“When people found out this news, many people from other Celestial Realms came here. The Jade Lake also used to go into that place. However, that ancient battlefield, which hasn’t been completely excavated, is very dangerous. Also, only cultivators who are at the Golden Celestial Stage or lower could go into it. Until now, we haven’t found anything precious in it. Buttface and Duan Jiude have appeared in the battlefield again. Many people went there to try to force Buttface and Duan Jiude to tell them the way to get into the ancient battlefield!” Bai Cailing paused a bit and continued to say, “I guess this time they really came together with Xu Que. It is said another person was also spotted besides Buttface and Duan Jiude. And that person is very powerful! Maybe it is really your son, Xu Que!”

“What? Is that unfilial son really here?” Xu Que said angrily.

“I am not sure, but it is highly possible. Elder Xu, please have a rest in the Jade Lake. I will be back soon. If I meet Xu Que, I will bring him back to you!” Bai Cailing tried to dissuade Xu Que from his idea of traveling with her. It didn’t mean she tried to detain Xu Que in the Jade Lake, so that he could revive the peach trees. Xu Que was just at the Half-Celestial Stage. His body was filled with magnificent Lifeless Qi, which made him quite frail. He could even be killed by someone else in the city, let alone the powerhouses in the Ancient Battlefield of Divinities!

“Okay! Please don’t worry about me and just go! I like a peaceful life and don’t like dangerous places like that!” Xu Que agreed. In fact, he was not interested in the Ancient Battlefield of Divinities. He had enough fortune and opportunities. The inheritances were not attractive for him. Moreover, there were so many young girls in the Jade Lake now! And they were so lovely!

“Okay, I won’t keep you any longer!” Bai Cailing said with a smile. Then she saluted Xu Que again and was about to leave.

At this time, a female apprentice walked over in a hurry and said as she saluted Bai Cailing, “Holy Virgin, we have received news that Buttface and Duan Jiude appeared in the Ancient Battlefield of Divinities. It is said that a small sect from the Taiyin Celestial Realm is under attack. Buttface and Duan Jiude have shown up to save them! We checked that small sect and it is the Utopia Faction!”

“What? How dare they do that?” Bai Cailing’s face darkened. When Jiang Hongyan came here, she was with Buttface, Duan Jiude, Liu Jingning, the Sect Leader, and several Elders of the Utopia Faction. After that, Liu Jingning and the rest of the members of the Utopia Faction joined the Utopia Faction in the Taiyin Celestial Realm. Many people knew the Utopia Faction was close with Jiang Hongyan, Buttface, and Duan Jiude. Therefore, they tried to find Buttface and Duan Jiude by attacking the Utopia Faction.

Hearing that, Xu Que’s face also darkened. He had planned to find Liu Jingning later on. Now, it seemed Liu Jingning was also in that ancient battlefield and could even become a hostage! He was quite angry! How dare you provoke the woman of the Act-Tough Saint? Are you seeking death?

“Holy Virgin, I’m afraid…the Divine Farmer Clan is also a mastermind of this issue. It is said the Utopia Faction didn’t want to go to that place. The Divine Farmer Clan ordered them to send people to the battlefield. They even asked Ms. Liu and the people with her to go to the battlefield specifically!” At this time, the female apprentice of the Jade Lake reminded Bai Cailing in a low voice.

Bai Cailing was very angry. “How despicable they are! Just inform the deacons and ask them to prepare themselves! We will leave for the Ancient Battlefield of Divinities immediately!”

“As you wish!” The female apprentice said immediately. Meanwhile, Bai Cailing was also about to leave this place.

“Holy Virgin, please wait!” Xu Que said calmly. Hearing that, Bai Cailing was surprised. She turned around and asked as she looked at Xu Que in surprise, “Elder Xu, what can I do for you?”

“Oh, it’s nothing! I remember Buttface has a thing that could revive the peach trees rapidly!” Then Xu Que said with a sly smile, “Its name is the Living Holy Water!”

“What? Does he have Living Holy Water?” Bai Cailing’s expression changed abruptly. Living Holy Water was extremely precious on the Heaven Continent! It was even sold in drops at auction! The Jade Lake also knew Living Holy Water could revive the peach trees. However, since they had dissipated their fortune, they couldn’t buy enough Living Holy Water to revive all the peach trees!

“Yes! And he has a lot. So I have decided to go to the Ancient Battlefield of Divinities with you, so that I can get some Living Holy Water from Buttface!” Xu Que said.

“Elder…Xu, let me handle this issue. You just have a rest in the Jade Lake. You don’t need to go there!” Bai Cailing said perplexedly. Xu Que was too weak, and she worried she was not able to ensure his safety!

“No, you have no idea. Only I or my son, Xu Que, could get the Living Holy Water from Buttface! Moreover, I haven’t seen my unfilial son for a long time. So I could take this opportunity to meet him!” Xu Que waved his hand as he spoke resolutely.

Seeing that, Bai Cailing nodded her head after a short hesitation, “Okay, Elder Xu, please prepare yourself and we will leave immediately!” She believed Xu Que was powerful enough to ensure his father’s safety. Moreover, she knew this old man would go there alone if she refused to go with him. Since she was not able to stop him, she decided to take him with her for it was more dangerous for him to go alone.

Soon, they left for the Teleportation Device in Tianxiang City together with five guardians at the summit of the Golden Celestial Stage and dozens of female apprentices of the Jade Lake. Soon they left for the Ancient Battlefield of Divinities.

Among the people traveling, Xu Que found an old woman who looked quite ordinary. However, he knew she was an extremely powerful cultivator. Bai Cailing didn’t want to keep the fact from Xu Que. She told Xu Que that the old woman was a senior Deacon of the Jade Lake who had reached the stage of Taiyi Genuine Celestial. She was even more senior than Deacon Lin. Xu Que knew a Taiyi Celestial was not able to enter the Ancient Battlefield of Divinities. So, this old woman’s task was to ensure Bai Cailing’s safety outside the ancient battlefield. On the battlefield, only those guardians at the Golden Celestial Stage could protect her.

They didn’t come across any danger on their way. Xu Que kept a low profile in the team and didn’t provoke the Taiyi Genuine Celestial for fear that she would unmask him. Luckily, the old woman, who looked even older than him, kept closing her eyes even when she was walking! She was really good at acting tough!

Xu Que felt he learned a lot from her. An expert who would turn a blind eye on everything and only live in his own world made sure that the outside world was not qualified to bother him! Later, Bai Cailing told Xu Que the Taiyi Genuine Celestial had wounded her eyes because of an Inner Demon caused by her cultivation. Now she was blind!

…..

Seven days later, Xu Que and the people of the Jade Lake arrived at the Ancient Battlefield of Divinities. It was located in a desert on the edge of the Tianxiang Celestial Realm and was close to the Taiyin Celestial Realm. In this place, there were only several shabby ancient cities and a few cultivators. When the Ancient Battlefield of Divinities was found, this place became bustling. Many cultivators set up stalls to sell all kinds of equipment and elixirs. When more and more people came to this place, it had become a market.

When Xu Que and the others arrived, he found five or six Taiyi Genuine Celestials from different sects. Apparently, they were protecting their descendants! However, Xu Que didn’t sense the auras of Buttface and Duan Jiude among these people. So he started to check the limitless desert behind the market.

There was a deep pit behind the market. Inside the pit, some shabby buildings could be seen. Many of them had been eroded by the wind. The entire area looked like an archaeological site that had just been excavated. The only difference was that a dazzling blue curtain was at the entrance of the site. A lot of people were coming in and out of the site. Whenever someone came in or out of the site, ripples were created on the curtain, which was full of the strength of an ancient restrictive spell. Apparently, this was one of the reasons why a powerhouse whose cultivation stage was higher than the Golden Celestial Stage couldn’t enter this site.

“Hah, hah! Duan Jiude and that dog are so ruthless. They managed to kill several cultivators at the Heaven Celestial Stage by setting up traps on the road!” Laughter rang out at this time, from a man who had just walked out of the site.

Hearing that, people outside the site were not surprised. Someone shook his head with a smile, “This is not the first time for them to do that!”

“Anyway, the Divine Farmer Clan is also despicable! I didn’t expect they would blackmail Buttface and Duan Jiude by capturing people of the Utopia Faction!”

“That’s nothing because that dog and Duan Jiude try to have the lion’s share of things inside! They are too weak to take possession of the inheritance in this site! I’m afraid they will be killed because of their greed!”

“That’s enough! All cultivators would try to take possession of fortunes like that. It is quite normal!”

“Thanks to the Divine Farmer Clan! They forced Buttface and Duan Jiude to show up and keep following them. Now, we can also move forward safely!”

“They have been following Buttface and Duan Jiude for several days? How is it going?”

“I guess they should have reached the center of the battlefield. However, the deeper they go into this site, the more dangerous it will be! It is said that Duan Jiude has been wounded. Several members of the Utopia Faction have been killed. Now only Liu Jingning is alive!”

Many people were talking about it for everyone who came out would bring the latest news. At this time, Bai Cailing said seriously, “Let’s go into this area immediately! Deacon Zhang, please stay here and wait for us!” She said as she looked at that Taiyi Genuine Celestial.

The old woman nodded her head calmly and said nothing. Bai Cailing didn’t waste her words. She walked toward the entrance of the site by passing through the market. However, as they walked out, the old woman seemed stunned a bit. It seemed her closed eyes could see anything. She turned to Xu Que. Then she frowned and murmured in a low voice as she shook her head, “Is it a misconception? I can sense a horrible killing intent in this person, which could even freak me out!”
