Xiao Yuwei squinted her eyes, sizing up Jiang Xiaobai repeatedly.
She knew that Jiang Xiaobai had many methods. From the way he had previously asked her about how to interrupt someone’s entry into the secret realm, it wasn’t hard to guess that he had some thoughts in that direction.
Even though she suspected that Jiang Xiaobai was the one responsible, she had no evidence. She had just left the secret realm, and found Xiao Wuwei arguing with Jiang Xiaobai, about to come to blows at any moment.
If she didn’t need to make use of Jiang Xiaobai, Xiao Yuwei would not intervene to stop Xiao Wuwei. She wouldn’t commit such a confrontation, that wasn’t something Xiao Yuwei would do.
“What are you looking at, is there a flower on my face?” Jiang Xiaobai asked in surprise.
“The disguise on your face has worn off.” Xiao Yuwei casually replied.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai snorted, “Hurry up and tell me what’s the situation in the secret realm.”
“Or don’t think about getting me to do things for you.”
Being blackmailed by Jiang Xiaobai was not the first or second time, Xiao Yuwei was already used to it. After a cold snort, she finally revealed the details about the secret realm.
Each secret realm is drastically different every time you enter it. This is the experience summarized by the Thousand Yuan Dynasty, excluding the last three secret realms.
The challenge that Xiao Yuwei faced in this visit was extremely simple. She was in a closed space where a beam of light would shine on her to test her innate potential.
If her innate potential met the standard, she could pass.
“Is it that simple?” Qin Ming asked in surprise.
“It’s just that simple. Why, don’t you believe me?” Xiao Yuwei raised an eyebrow.
“So, what kind of opportunity did you get afterwards?”
“Just a piece of special essence.”
Having said that, Xiao Yuwei didn’t mind and stretched out her hand in front of Jiang Xiaobai. In her hand was a palm-sized blue essence, exuding a cold air.
Jiang Xiaobai discerned at a glance that this thing was extremely precious. Encounter anyone who needed such an icy essence, it would certainly fetch a sky-high price.
This showed how terrifying opportunities could be found in this secret realm.
It was a simple test that rewarded you with such an opportunity once you passed it, and it was just the simplest No. 1 secret realm.
As for No. 2, No. 3, or even No. 7 and No. 8 secret realms, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t even dare to speculate what they would reward.
This made him even more curious, who arranged this secret place?
“Stop thinking about it, no one knows the origin of the secret place. But the first time it appeared in public view was more than ten thousand years ago,” Xiao Yuwei said, seemingly seeing through Jiang Xiaobai’s thoughts.
As a cultivator, she indeed had a strong curiosity, but for certain things, no matter how strong the curiosity, it was useless. It was better to accept it than to delve into it. Focus on how to gain more power for the moment.
Jiang Xiaobai nodded, while in his heart, he was extremely curious for the secret realms behind, eager to find out what kind of trials or fortunes he might encounter there.
However, he knew that now was not the time to contemplate these matters. The most important thing was to complete the task given by the system earlier.
After someone emerged from the No. 1 secret realm, the battle began again. But since the difficulty here was low and the resources obtained were also small, those who were fighting for a place were mainly independent cultivators and family forces.
On the other hand, Number Three, which had not been contested yet, was suddenly stormed by the Sword Sea Sect, and Li Xuanlin, the holy son of the Sword Sea Sect, rushed in.
In the end, all five secret realms had someone enter, and everyone quieted down, no longer continuing to fight.
Jiang Xiaobai and AnRan still seemed aloof, lying on a big rock, as if in a daze, they were staring at the entrance of the secret realm.
On the side of Secret Realm No. 5, Xiao Wuwei kept staring at Jiang Xiaobai with a dark expression.
The humiliations this man had bought him were too many!
So much so that he’d never felt this suffocated in his life. Xiao Wuwei would never let Jiang Xiaobai off the hook.
“Keep an eye on that side. If Xiao Yuwei wants to enter the secret realm, don’t block her, let her in. As soon as she enters the secret realm, make a move on that bastard.” Xiao Wuwei looked at Jiang Xiaobai and said through clenched teeth.
He absolutely loathed Jiang Xiaobai. At this moment, his desire for the secret realm was not as strong anymore. More than that, he wanted to kill Jiang Xiaobai on the spot to vent his resentment.
Of course, Jiang Xiaobai knew this, but he didn’t pay it much mind. He’d just deal with things as they came, there was nothing to be afraid of.
Slowly, as time went on, people gradually entered and left the secret realms one after another.
Some were joyful and some were downcast. The secret realm was not a place where everyone could pass, even the simplest No. 1 secret realm.
Not many succeeded, even Li Haofeng, the first to enter the secret realm, came out with a sullen face. Apparently, he hadn’t passed the test.
Li Xuanlin passed the secret realm test and emerged with a smile on his face. He joined the ranks of the Sword Sea Sect. Almost at the same time, Xiao Ruyu passed the No. 4 Secret Realm and came out with her usual languid demeanor.
However, quite a few people entered it throughout the day, but in the end, there weren’t many who came out with joy on their faces.
Soon, the five places for each secret realm were fully occupied, and it was only afternoon, still some time away from dusk.
Most people chose to go elsewhere to find resources, only the descendants of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty, as well as some powerful independent cultivators didn’t leave.
Xiao Yuwei didn’t leave, so naturally Jiang Xiaobai wouldn’t leave either. The task was the most important.
He and AnRan seemed to be on vacation at this place. By night, they unbelievably lit a bonfire and started to roast meat. The aroma was so tempting that those who hadn’t left couldn’t help but drool.
It was mouth-wateringly delicious!
“This guy, he just loves to be strange.”
Seeing Jiang Xiaobai acting like this, Xiao Yuwei was speechless too. “I really don’t know how a person like you has managed to get by until now.”
“This is none of your business. If you want to eat, you can come and have some, I don’t mind.”
Rolling her eyes, Xiao Yuwei didn’t hesitate. If memory served her right, all these ingredients were brought by Jiang Xiaobai from her mansion, so why wouldn’t she eat?
After eating and drinking, Jiang Xiaobai lay on the big rock, staring at the starry sky that seemed like a paradise in the secret realm, lost in thought.
“I wonder how Yan’er is doing. Has she missed me?” Jiang Xiaobai mumbled to himself.
At the same time, thousands of miles away, in a secret room, Ao Yan, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened her eyes.
Her clothes heaved, and her aura circulated. She had shockingly made a breakthrough to the Fusion Stage!
