Chapter 269: 269: The Situation Inside the Secret Place
Translator: 549690339
The situation within the Mad Demon Secret Land was what Jiang Xiaobai most wanted to know right now.
Previously, he was in a hurry to get to Thousand Yuan City and was imprisoned by Xiao Yuwei, so he didn’t have a chance to learn more.
Giving Jiang Xiaobai a glance, Xiao Yuwei, for some unknown reason, asked it out of the blue.
“Do you have any more Frenzy Demon Stones?”
“Why do you ask?”
“Honestly, Frenzy Demon Stones play a vital role in the Mad Demon Secret Land, especially related to opportunities.”
As Xiao Yuwei spoke, she threw ten Frenzy Demon Stones at Jiang Xiaobai, “You can take these. After all, you can’t work for me for nothing.”
Jiang Xiaobai looked at the Frenzy Demon Stones in front of him and then at Xiao Yuwei.
Huh, is the sun rising from the west now?
Has this tight-fisted miser suddenly changed her ways?
Feeling the incredulous gaze of Jiang Xiaobai, Xiao Yuwei felt a vein pulsate on her forehead.
It wasn’t that she suddenly became generous, but rather that she wanted to make Jiang Xiaobai more amicable towards her, and hence more willing to work for her.
“No need, these things are useless to me. Just tell me what the chances in the Mad Demon Secret Land are and what the situation is.” Jiang Xiaobai said indifferently.
“The situation inside is not much different from the outside, but it’s brighter there, and not as dangerous.”
Xiao Yuwei nodded, giving a direct response.
“Even though opportunities are everywhere inside, the best and biggest ones are at those few secret realms…”
So it is. The most precious things in the Mad Demon Secret Land are the secret realms within.
There are eight in total.
The secret realms are milky-white spheres of light, each sphere is situated on a kind of altar building, and the amount of Frenzy Demon Stones needed to enter is indicated on the building.
There are five altars presenting fixed opportunities which rank people based on their talent, abilities, and the speed of their tests through the secret realm.
In the end, the secret realm automatically assigns benefits according to the score.
Sometimes it’s a treasure, sometimes a spirit stone, and sometimes, it could even be a heaven-defying skill or even the possession of potent specific powers.
In short, everything is excellent and powerful, making everyone yearn for it.
“What about the other three altars?” Jiang Xiaobai asked, surprised.
“The other three altars, very few people can enter them, as entering requires at least fifty Frenzy Demon Stones, and the situation there is rather complex.”
Xiao Yuwei shook her head, “The Thousand Yuan Dynasty has summarized it a few times and found that every person that went in had different experiences, there was no correlation. Moreover, for the three secret realms, from the beginning till now, nobody has ever cleared it!”
“So nobody knows, what one needs to pass and what the reward is.”
“And, because the required number of Frenzy Demon Stones is too outrageous, even if someone possesses fifty Frenzy Demon Stones, they would not choose to go to the three secret realms, it would be a total waste.”
After listening, Jiang Xiaobai nodded.
It seems that the situation inside is indeed complex, but he’s been attracted by those three secret realms. Unlike others, he had plenty of Frenzy Demon Stones!
Tens of thousands of Frenzy Demon Stones were quietly stored in his storage space. He could try to enter all of the realms, not just three, and even three hundred, as long as he had sufficient time!
“By the way, I forgot to tell you, after entering the Mad Demon Secret Land, there is only one kind of danger.”
“There are many ferocious beasts inside the Secret Land, all with terrifying strength. The weakest of them is at the initial stage of Transcendence. So, don’t act recklessly after you enter, these beasts can be very horrifying when they go mad.”
Suddenly, Xiao Yuwei said, “Also, after the Mad Demon Secret Land is opened, you can only stay for fifteen days. If you don’t come out within this period, you can only wait until the next opening to leave.”
“Don’t think that it’s a good situation. You would have to stay inside for a full five years, meanwhile, those secret realms will be completely closed off, and there will be no spiritual power inside.”
As she spoke, Xiao Yuwei started to laugh, “If you get trapped inside, you can only wait for death. If you offend even a single beast within these five years, you are certain to die.”
Jiang Xiaobai understood, but he also became curious.
According to what Xiao Yuwei said, after entering, everyone was rushing to find opportunities in the secret realms or seeking other benefits. These were personal matters.
So, what did she need him to do?
Seemingly sensing Jiang Xiaobai’s question, Xiao Yuwei spoke indifferently, “After entering, you only need to do two things.”
“Try to collect as much of this as possible…”
As she spoke, she tossed a milky-white pebble-sized stone in front of Jiang Xiaobai.
“This is a unique essence of the Mad Demon Secret Land. Whether it’s used in pills or to aid cultivation, it’s extremely useful. You should be able to sense the rich life power within it.”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded in agreement. Even this small thing contained as much life force as a high-grade pill.
“What’s the other thing?” Jiang Xiaobai raised his eyebrows.
Xiao Yuwei revealed a mischievous glare, “The other task is a bit more difficult – you need to hinder others as much as possible from competing with us for the secret realms.”
“Competing?”
“The secret realms have a quota. During the fifteen days, every day refreshes the opportunity, with only five people being able to enter each day.”
As Xiao Yuwei said this, her face darkened, “What you need to do is very simple. When they want to use Frenzy Demon Stones to enter the secret realm, try to stop them using any means possible.”
“If they are from the Thousand Yuan Dynasty, you must obstruct them even more. Don’t worry, they can’t kill you. Via the token, you can be teleported out at any time.”
Suddenly, Jiang Xiaobai’s mouth twitched continuously.
Very well, she is practically sending him to his death.
Stopping others might be feasible, but stopping people from the Thousand Yuan Dynasty?
Isn’t this asking for his life?
There’s a saying that robbing someone’s money is akin to killing their parents, not to mention obstructing them from these opportunities!
The sons of the Dynasty would probably hunt him down and kill him.
“Are you sure you’re not trying to harm me?” Jiang Xiaobai squinted his eyes.
“Rest assured. This is our traditional practice. Otherwise, why do you think each of our sons can bring people into the Secret Land?”
Xiao Yuwei chuckled lightly, “When you enter, you’ll know how easy it is to obstruct them. As long as you sincerely help me, I won’t treat you shabbily.”
“Meh, you think I’m an idiot? You haven’t even given me my three billion spirit stones, you really expect me to buy that?” Jiang Xiaobai sneered.
Xiao Yuwei’s face immediately turned pale.
“Jiang Bai, don’t be ungrateful. I’ve been suppressing my temper when I talk to you. It’s all because I see your potential, don’t waste this opportunity.” Xiao Yuwei gritted her teeth and said.
