Book 4: Chapter 13: Association With The Unbeloved (1/2)
In the dark space, the black-robed man stared at a screen, which showed Tang Ruowei who was madly crushing the illusion created by the [separation from the loved] trial, and couldn’t help muttering to himself:
“What is wrong with the cultivators of this generation?”
He looked at Tang Ruowei who had cut off the head of the Shangxuan Emperor and muttered:
“Is there any mistake? Although it is a replica created by the formation, that is also your father! Your biological father!”
The skull on the side fell into the darkness, watching the scene too, the light in his eyes was indefinite, hiding his thoughts.
............
“Oh, she’s back.”
Standing next to the stone tablet, Li Jinyao looked at Tang Ruowei who came back safely from the trial area and asked:
“Sister Ruowei, how do you feel?”
“What else? See her expression.”
Bai Qiuran looked at his disciple’s stinking expression, and said leisurely:
“Hmph, I think her sore spot has been poked in the illusion…this trial is really asking for a dead end.”
Because of the dislocation of space, Bai Qiuran and Li Jinyao could only see people of all shapes and forms appearing around Tang Ruowei, and then when they watched her halfway, she suddenly madly attacked everything around her, to the point a layer has been peeled from the surrounding ground. But the two of them didn’t know what happened in the illusion.
Tang Ruowei walked to the stone tablet, stretched out her hand to touch it, and looked at the gradually dimming text on the stone tablet. She suddenly raised her hand and hit the stone tablet with a palm.
With a snap, the girl squatted down on the spot, clutching her flushed palm.
“Puff!”
Li Jinyao couldn’t help but say:
“Sometimes, sister Ruowei is really…dumb but cute.”
“Well, this is the furious state after her berserk button was pushed.”
Bai Qiuran nodded and said:
“Attack power, defensive power, and speed have increased by 200%, but IQ has decreased by 100%.”
All three of them have successfully cleared the trial. Bai Qiuran walked over, pulled his disciple from the ground, took out the healing plaster, and applied it on her palm. At this moment, a mist suddenly appeared on the edge of the plain. This should be the exit to the cliff space.
The three of them left the trial space together. After entering the mist, Li Jinyao actively held Bai Qiuran’s hands.
Seeing Bai Qiuran looking at her strangely, Li Jinyao explained playfully:
“I don’t want to be separated from you, Sword Patriarch.”
Seeing that she also held Tang Ruowei’s hand at the same time, Bai Qiuran didn’t say anything. The three of them passed through the mist and returned to the dislocation cliff together.
Li Jinyao looked up and down and asked:
“Ruowei, look at the top of the mountain now, is it 750 feet away?”
Tang Ruowei’s anger has disappeared a lot. After hearing this, she looked up and replied:
“Yes.”
“It seems that this is the rule. By the way, senior Sword Patriarch, how many trials have you passed?”
Li Jinyao asked curiously.
“The next is the sixth one.”
Bai Qiuran replied:
“I came here in the order of eight sufferings, so I think the next one should be ‘association with the unbeloved’.”
“It just so happens that Junior Sister Ruowei and I haven’t passed this level yet.”
Li Jinyao nodded.
“It seems we can go on together.”
............
The three of them appeared in front of an old building similar to the colosseum.
They were standing on a platform, and the platform was connected to the colosseum by a bridge. Everything floated in a black void.
A stone stele was standing beside the bridge. After the three people walked over, the stele showed two lines of words successively as before.
