"Qingqing, don't you think Bai Hao and the others are bullying the test takers a bit because they're using top-grade spiritual artifacts?" Bai Wenyuan asked, pursing his lips.
“Indeed.” Bai Qingqing nodded. “This bug needs to be fixed as soon as possible.”
As soon as Bai Qingqing finished speaking, a burst of seven-colored light flashed on the stone tablet that read "The winner takes all".
It only lasted for a few breaths.
After the colorful light fell, the trial rules for the winner-takes-all test were modified.
Three points were corrected in total.
First, before entering the secret realm, if a spirit weapon of Earth grade or above is not sealed by itself, its combat power will be amplified according to the enhancement provided by the spirit weapon.
Secondly, if all testers are defeated and all testers survive, there is a chance to obtain a spirit skill manual. The probability is calculated based on the survival rate.
Third, the rules will be supplemented and modified at any time until they are perfect.
"Hmm, that's much better." Bai Qingqing thought that Xiao Hao had secretly intervened, and smiled with satisfaction.
Just then, Lan Xuan's voice came from the sky curtain: "There's a treasure chest."
Bai Hao and the others hurriedly looked up in the direction Lan Xuan was pointing, and sure enough, they saw a treasure chest hidden in the bushes outside the gate.
“Let’s go take a look.” Bai Hao took the lead.
Everyone followed excitedly behind.
“It is indeed a treasure chest.” Bai Hao pulled the treasure chest out of the bushes and handed it to Lan Xuan: “Senior Sister found it, Senior Sister, please open it.”
"We've all come this far together, let's discuss this," Lan Xuan said, declining the offer.
After all, the rules on the stone tablet are clearly written: whoever opens it will find it compatible with their realm and spiritual root, so it essentially belongs to that person.
"Senior Sister, please don't refuse. Time is limited, and if we teleport out, this opportunity will be gone," Bai Sheng said.
“Junior Brother Bai is right, Senior Sister, please open it,” Zhan Ling said.
“I still don’t think it’s appropriate.” Lan Xuan shook her head.
"Why don't we roll the dice?" Tian Yan suggested, and his suggestion was immediately met with unanimous approval.
Bai Sheng immediately cut out two dice, handed them to Lan Xuan, and said, "Let's roll them according to our sect's order."
"Okay." Lan Xuan took it, tossed a three, shook her head and laughed, "Looks like it's not meant for me."
Rolling two dice and getting a three is probably the lowest score in the game.
"Looks like Senior Sister isn't having much luck. Watch me." Chen Han caught it, threw it confidently, and got a two.
"I have to take back what I just said. It was clearly just that I was unlucky," Chen Han said with a smile.
Ten people, and it was over quickly.
The final result was absolutely astonishing.
Because of these three points, Lan Xuan actually secured first place.
Everyone else had two dots.
"It seems this treasure chest was meant for Senior Sister," Zhan Ling said with a smile.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony." Lan Xuan took a deep breath, suddenly opened the treasure chest, inside was a silver-white inner armor.
Lan Xuan had just received it and hadn't had a chance to examine it closely yet.
The group of ten was teleported out and appeared in front of Bai Wenyuan and his companions.
"Ancestor..." they all bowed and said.
"Yes, you did a good job inside." Bai Wenyuan patted Bai Hao on the shoulder, praising him generously.
"Thank you, Ancestor." Bai Hao took it as just a polite remark.
“However, the rules of ‘winner takes all’ have been changed, so next time we won’t be able to use Heaven-grade spiritual artifacts,” Bai Wenyuan added.
"The Ancestor can see it?" Lan Xuan asked in surprise.
"Qingqing set up the sky curtain, and everyone saw your trial process," Bai Wenyuan said, pointing ahead.
The ten people turned their heads at the same time and sure enough, they saw several pieces of sky curtain.
"Then, did you stay here for eight days, Ancestors?" Chen Han couldn't help but ask.
"Qingqing has adjusted the time flow in the secret realm. It's different from the outside; five days inside is equivalent to one hour outside," Bai Wenyuan said.
"Junior Sister is really... amazing." Lan Xuan and the others looked at her with awe.
"Ancestor, doesn't Qingqing already know about the high-grade spiritual artifact? Won't that affect her cultivation of mortal desires?" Bai Hao asked anxiously via telepathy.
"It's been resolved." Bai Wenyuan relayed the message from "Uncle in Black" and what happened afterward to the six Bai brothers via telepathy.
The six Bai brothers finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Senior Sister, quickly check what grade your inner armor is!" Zhan Ling said excitedly from the side.
"A top-grade spiritual treasure, resistant to both water and fire, and can also guide the power of lightning to accelerate cultivation," Lan Xuan said after carefully sensing it.
"As expected of a top-grade item." Bai Wenyuan nodded. "With this spiritual treasure, your future cultivation will be much smoother."
"It was all thanks to my junior brothers and sisters who were so kind to me that I was lucky enough to get it," Lan Xuan said apologetically.
"You must remember that luck is also a form of strength," Bai Wenyuan said.
In fact, he and Niu Shanming had already discussed this outcome before.
Before entering the secret realm, Bai Qingqing said something like, "I hope Senior Sister can open a treasure chest during this trial."
This is the Law of Wishes, one of the Three Thousand Laws.
Lan Xuan was boosted by Bai Qingqing's words, which is why the scores of the other nine people could not surpass hers.
"What kind of substitute puppet do you have?" Bai Wenyuan asked Chen Han.
"It requires extracting a drop of one's own blood essence, a drop of wood essence from the wood spirit root, and this spiritual technique manual, fusing them together to refine a substitute puppet that can withstand a fatal blow," Chen Han said. "However, once the substitute puppet is damaged, it will take a month to recover."
"Won't you need to carry a wooden bodyguard with you every day?" Bai Xu couldn't help but ask.
“Of course not,” Chen Han said. “Once the substitute puppet is created, it is stored in the sea of consciousness and can be used at any time.”
“Although your spiritual skill is only of the middle grade, it is comparable to the upper grade.” Niu Shanming nodded and said, “This secret realm is indeed full of good things.”
"So, what are you waiting for?" Bai Qingqing turned around and shouted at the disciples.
Although this trip only cost twenty-five spirit stones, every little bit helps.
Moreover, this is a project that can generate continuous consumption.
Each trial lasts about two hours outside, so there can be forty-eight trials a day.
Even if we make forty sets, with ten pills per set, that's four hundred pills, easily making tens of thousands a month.
The disciples outside were already green with envy.
Those are top-grade spirit stones.
Those are top-grade spiritual treasures and mid-grade spiritual techniques.
The most important thing is the law of life and death that my senior brothers and sisters just mentioned.
No, they need to go to the trial as well.
"We are still short of three people at the Meridian Opening Realm."
"Those at the Gathering Sea Realm and Moving Qi Realm, come quickly; we still need two more."
"We only need one more person at the Qi Refining Realm. Once they arrive, they can enter immediately."
