"To die...?"
Xiao Yu felt like he was about to collapse, but he forced himself to say:
"Is there absolutely no chance of survival?"
"Qi Refining stage? How could they possibly survive? Let alone Qi Refining stage, even Foundation Establishment stage wouldn't be able to survive."
Ruan Xinrou solemnly counted on her fingers, "Senior brother, do you remember how many people actually survived the trials in the Wet Bone Forest over the years? It seems like only three."
"The Wet Bone Forest Trial is held annually, and it's been over twenty years now. Apart from those three people, everyone else is dead."
Although Xiao Yu already knew the answer, her heart still skipped a beat when she heard Ruan Xinrou say that.
So, Bai Ying will die, right?
The girl he used to run to see every day will disappear from this world...
Xiao Yu squeezed herself as if she were a hand.
At that time, in order to deceive Bai Ying's feelings, he not only visited her every day, but also brought her a bouquet of flowers every day. Bai Ying liked blue, so he brought blue flowers.
Every time Bai Ying saw those flowers, she smiled gently, saying how thoughtful he was.
At that time, he thought Bai Ying was the easiest person in the world to deceive. What was her intention? She was just throwing around flowers, which had no value whatsoever. He gave all the truly precious natural treasures to Ruan Xinrou.
What was given to Bai Ying was nothing more than the most ordinary flowers picked casually from the roadside.
She was still so happy.
But now Xiao Yu felt regret. He shouldn't have been so stingy with her. If he had given her more good magical artifacts back then, she could have used them for self-defense.
Xiao Yu had no idea how he spent his day; he was absent-minded all day.
After returning home, he forced himself not to think about Bai Ying anymore.
He reminded himself that no one was more important than Nguyen Tan Rou.
But that same day he overheard his friends talking about the Shikbone Forest Trials.
My friend said that one of his junior female students had just entered when she was trampled under a Black Spirit Tiger, her neck bitten off, and blood flowed everywhere. Then a group of Black Spirit Tigers rushed over and kept gnawing at her body.
Xiao Yu was covered in cold sweat.
He could no longer deceive himself; he didn't care about Bai Ying at all.
From that moment on, Xiao Yu began searching everywhere for Bai Ying.
Both he and Su Yu were already in the late Foundation Establishment stage, so they could no longer participate in the Wet Bone Forest Trial, and they couldn't even go in to protect her.
The Shikbone Forest Trial is also unique, as it has no specific entrance.
Every cultivator participating in the trial will be given a token. When the time comes, the cultivator will crush the token and be automatically teleported to the trial site.
Therefore, he couldn't even intercept Bai Ying at the entrance.
Xiao Yu and Su Yu searched desperately but still couldn't find Bai Ying.
Only on the day of the trial can one observe the situation in the trial venue through the Qiankun Mirror together with everyone else.
—
Bai Ying was completely unaware that someone was looking for her. In the past two days, she returned to the Cliff of Contemplation and used the special environment of the Cliff of Contemplation to reinforce the magical artifacts she had crafted.
The reason she chose to go to the Wet Bone Forest for the trial was because it contained the Mystic Crystal Stone, the refining material she needed.
With that stone, she could upgrade her incense burner and other magical artifacts to the next level.
Although her soul has been revived and her consciousness is now expansive, it is still not enough. She needs to quickly raise her cultivation level as well.
When Bai Ying was teleported to the trial grounds, a group of people were already standing around her.
Trials can be undertaken in teams or solo.
Before Bai Ying could speak, several people surrounded her. "How about we form a group? We have quite a few magical treasures. You won't be at a disadvantage if you're in our group."
The speaker was Lin Yizhi, the son of the sect leader. The people beside him were his close friends whom he had invited.
These people are different from the others. They have life-saving talismans personally given by the sect leader. Even if they are killed, they will not die, but will be immediately teleported away.
Bai Ying looked at the person in front of her and smiled.
She knew him.
Lin Yizhi.
Nguyen Tan Nhu's biggest supporter.
In his past life, he frequently smeared his own reputation for Ruan Xinrou's sake. Because of his special status, many people believed him. Even those who didn't know him before began to despise him.
With him, Ruan Xinrou quickly gained the favor of the entire sect, and she was also able to better absorb her own fortune.
Bai Ying saw that the corners of his mouth had turned up. She immediately replied:
"OK!"
Meanwhile, Ruan Xinrou's lips curled up as she watched this scene through the Qiankun Mirror.
She wondered why her senior brother and Xiao Yu had been acting so strangely these past two days.
I never expected that they were both concerned about Bai Ying.
When Ruan Xinrou discovered that her luck value was decreasing, her face turned green.
I don't know what's wrong with Senior Brother and Xiao Yu, they've both started worrying about Bai Ying.
Ruan Xinrou immediately contacted Lin Yizhi and tearfully told him that she had been bullied by Bai Ying again.
Lin Yizhi immediately agreed to help her teach Bai Ying a lesson.
Ruan Xinrou added that although she was bullied, Bai Ying was, after all, her senior sister, and she couldn't bear to let her senior sister die in the Shigu Forest trial.
Lin Yizhi was deeply moved by Ruan Xinrou's kindness, and he said he would definitely make Bai Ying's reputation ruined.
But he will also spare her life.
Ruan Xinrou couldn't help but burst out laughing.
How could she possibly be kind? She wished Bai Ying dead. But she hadn't completely drained Bai Ying's luck yet.
If Bai Ying were to die, whose luck would she seize?
-
When Lin Yizhi heard Bai Ying agree to join their group, the group members immediately exchanged glances. Then, he tossed a magical artifact to Bai Ying: "This is a magical artifact specifically for healing. If we encounter demonic beasts, the rest of us can go ahead and kill them, while you heal us from behind."
Lin Yizhi's idea was simple: they all carried life-saving talismans. They wouldn't actually die anyway.
He'll find an easy-to-kill monster to deal with then.
When Bai Ying treated them, they pretended that Bai Ying hadn't treated them and was deliberately sending them to their deaths so they could seize the magical treasures they possessed.
But Bai Ying would never have imagined that they actually had a substitute talisman.
Before they "died," they were still worried about Bai Ying and gave her a substitute talisman.
Bai Ying was ruthless to them, but they still saved Bai Ying's life.
In this way, all the fellow disciples watching in front of the Qiankun Mirror would despise Bai Ying! Bai Ying would truly lose all reputation in the entire sect.
From then on, she would be like a rat in the street, hated and chased by everyone. No one would tolerate her anymore.
Lin Yizhi walked ahead in a cheerful mood.
Before coming here, he spent a lot of money to obtain a map of the Wet Bone Forest Trial Grounds.
He knew there were flying centipedes ahead.
The flying centipede wasn't particularly strong; the group of them could barely handle it.
Only by facing death under such circumstances can Bai Ying's refusal to treat them be truly demonstrated.
They soon arrived at the location of the flying centipede.
The moment they saw the flying centipede, they immediately rushed towards it.
