The youth with a sword by his side frowned as the corners of his lips twitched.

He swept a glance at the empty treasure room before turning his gaze to this unfamiliar face standing in front of him. In a short while, his expression started to change into one of intense rage. 'Zheng!' He drew out his sword and pointed it at Xu Que and asked ferociously, "Who are you? How dare you trespass into my sect's treasure room!"

Xu Que turned to look at the system interface screen and noticed the last remaining Divine Escape Emblem left in the item slot. He then started laughing out loud.

"Brother, you don't even know who I am and you dare to point your sword at me? Don't you know? In this entire life, the one thing I hate the most is for someone to point a gun... Oh, for someone to point a sword at my face?"

"Ding! Congratulations host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting tough. The reward is one act tough point."

The sword wielding youth paused, a confused look could be seen on his face, "But, I didn't point it at your head!"

He then realized what he'd just said and snapped back into anger, "Cut the crap! You dare to enter our sacred treasure room. You're clearly looking for death."

The minute his last word was spoken, the youth swung his sword with a 'whoosh'. The deadly flash of the sword could almost be heard as bright red light reflected across to the four corners of the room. A stream of ember flames spilled out and charged towards Xu Que, causing him to feel an intense heat.

His mother, this kid is really unkind! And much more powerful than that immortal girl from earlier. At the very least, he's at the Foundation Building Stage! Why do all these cultivation people so fierce and violent. They always attack to kill without giving any warning or speaking and their opening attacks are always so powerful.

Xu Que cursed out aloud as he charged some energy from within his body to defend himself. However, he felt something wasn't quite right.

He could feel a colossal amount of energy welling from within the deepest recesses of his body. It seemed to swirl around his vital organs and wreak havoc all over. It was almost as if the energy was trying to rip his entire body apart and felt like a million needles were pricking every inch of him. Xu Que trembled before falling to the ground helplessly.

"Ah!"

Xu Que clutched at his lower abdomen, just above the navel, where the dantian was. The dantian was the region where Qi was stored and it felt like the immense energy was about to force its way out. It was so intense that he knew the amount of energy trying to escape would surely kill him and shatter his body.

Why was this happening?

Xu Que then recalled the number of pills he gulped down recklessly as his face turned pale.

I'm finished. I'm really finished.

With so many pills in my stomach I'm done for. So it wasn't that the pills weren't taking effect but that I had to rotate all the Qi around for me to feel it.

After consuming all those pills, he didn't think to rotate the Qi around his body and thus didn't feel the effects of it. Only after he was forced to utilize some energy to defend himself from the youth did he rotate his Qi.

"How dare you thief! What tricks are you trying to pull off this time?"

Zhang Su Liang glared at Xu Que, trying to size him up. Seeing him clutch his belly and all the empty vials around him. He finally understood the situation. With a face full of shock and fear, he sputtered, "You... Did you consume all those pills?"
