Is this what the world of a big shot is like?
They are capricious and their means of messing with people are ever-changing?
Looking at AnRan’s pigheadedness, Jiang Xiaobai already knew that it was surely not a good environment.
As for himself.
He had no other choice left.
He wasn’t able to act now, although it had been said that using the most powerful method – the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation plus the Seven-Treasure Pagoda, with the two working together, there might be a chance.
But in case it didn’t work, it would be real despair because he really didn’t have any other means or methods!
As it seems now, going through the secret realm appeared to be the most feasible option.
Although this woman was prone to changing her mind, but necessary evil, currently it seems he could only trust her.
“Alright, then release me, big shot, I’ll go right now.”
Jiang Xiaobai hardened his heart and spoke.
Gu Ning nodded quite satisfied, the force binding Jiang Xiaobai vanished instantly.
Then Jiang Xiaobai stretched his muscles and bones, looked at AnRan, confirmed that the fatso was not in any danger, then came to the stone trough.
The stone trough was small, but it was very deep inside, like a bottomless pit.
Jiang Xiaobai was curious, clearly the stone trough had only so much space on the outside, but it had such a peculiar situation on the inside.
Without hesitation, the five thousand Frenzy Demon Stones were dumped by Jiang Xiaobai like garbage into the stone trough, all of them were swallowed by it.
The familiar branding scent appeared, five seconds later, Jiang Xiaobai resolutely stepped into the light curtain.
The surrounding environment changed drastically in an instant, and after a moment of confusion, he appeared in a cave with a campfire.
Outside the cave, was the endless vast black night, with large snowflakes floating in the black night, illuminated by the residual light of the campfire.
The long night was filled with boundless solitude, indeed the scenery was nice, but Jiang Xiaobai only had to glance at the outside world to feel that he was about to be drowned by loneliness.
Clang!
A sword fell from nowhere, smashing on the ground, echoing in the cave.
Besides that, there was nothing else.
Jiang Xiaobai waited seriously for a while, but the outcome was still devoid of any reaction, and then he became stupefied.
“A test, a test!”
“At least give a hint, otherwise how is it a test?”
“Just a sword, then what, that’s it?”
Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help it. He was previously threatened by the big shot and almost lost his life, now after entering this ghostly place, he was facing such a disgusting test.
What a farce!
He exploded, stood up and kicked the campfire in front of him in all directions, pointing at the sword on the ground and swearing.
Little did he know, all his actions could be clearly seen by Gu Ning outside.
At this moment, Gu Ning was sitting on her throne, and the light curtain of the secret realm gateway next to her had turned into a mirror image, showing Qin Ming’s crazed and agitated appearance inside.
Gu Ning’s mouth curled up into a captivating smile, and a gleam flashed in her eyes.
“If that old man didn’t lie to me, then that person should be you.”
“Let me see what you’re capable of.”
Not long after, the mirror image showed Jiang Xiaobai sitting on the ground listlessly, and the campfire that had been demolished earlier somehow turned into an intact form again.
At that time, inside the secret realm, Jiang Xiaobai’s gaze was constantly moving between the campfire and the sword.
After venting, he confirmed that he couldn’t find any hints, so he could only start thinking about other possibilities.
At the same time, Jiang Xiaobai also found out that he seemed to have only entered this space with his consciousness, there was no storage ring, and no system space.
The only things he had were the ever-burning campfire in front of him and the boundless heavy snow outside the cave.
After a long time, Jiang Xiaobai picked up the iron sword and waved it a few times in his hand. Surprisingly, it felt rather good, although it looked crude and inferior, it was quite smooth to swing, and he could not even feel the friction between the blade and the air.
“So, what exactly this secret realm wants me to do?”
“An iron sword, a cave, and endless heavy snow?”
“It does have a certain charm… Hmm? Charm?”
Jiang Xiaobai suddenly sat up straight, looking at the iron sword in his hand.
He entered this place as a conscious entity, everything was an illusion, and everything here should be just a consciousness, belonging to nothingness, and the charm was quite good.
And what he was best at was swordsmanship…
Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaobai’s smart brain instantly came up with two conclusions.
“Either this place wants me to cultivate my sword intent, or it wants me to understand some method that can cause real damage in this illusive place!”
Why the second thought?
It is simple, just from the fact that he kicked the campfire into pieces only to see the campfire restore itself on its own accord.
Jiang Xiaobai daringly guessed.
“Well, guess boldly but verify carefully.”
“Once we have a plan, we start to act, hoping to leave this ghost place as quickly as possible.”
Jiang Xiaobai said in his heart and immediately began to test his first idea.
He fully released his sword intent, and suddenly the sharp sword intent rose to the sky. As it enveloped him, the sword intent started to slowly spread throughout the cave.
There was no movement.
Then Jiang Xiaobai controlled his sword intent to move outward, but as soon as this sword intent stepped out of the cave, it was instantly frozen by the snow outside, and with a gust of wind, the sword intent shattered.
Hmm, sword intent, shattered.
“Damn it, can this stuff really break, is it kidding me!”
Jiang Xiaobai tore his hair out in frustration.
He had never seen such a scene!
Nor did he have any cognition of what could freeze the sword intent and then shatter it!
“Could it be that this is a test for my sword intent?”
Looking anxiously at the snowstorm outside, Jiang Xiaobai’s thought of going outside for a walk that had just risen in his heart was instantly extinguished.
Then he squinted and contemplated for a while, starting to sense the state of the snowstorm outside.
Although the snowstorm outside was terrible, when his divine sense was slowly released, there was no impact, but in a short while, Jiang Xiaobai could not sense anything.
After wasting some time, he started to test his second idea.
He saw him swiftly swung his sword, slashing at the campfire in front of him, the campfire was shattered, pieces flying everywhere.
But the next second, all the shards returned to their original places and the campfire was still the same.
But Jiang Xiaobai laughed.
He felt it!
Just now that sword went down, although it looked like he had cut a real object, the sword and his hand would not lie to him.
It was an illusion!
But why would an illusory thing break?
Why, with the wave of his long sword, was the illusory object breaking like a physical one?
Obviously, this was the focus of the test this time: how to truly shatter an illusory thing!
Once he understood, Jiang Xiaobai laughed excitedly.
“I have no problem with comprehension!”
Then he began to swing his sword again, shattering the campfire in front of him again and again.
Again and again, he sensed something was in there.
