The man in black suddenly disappeared like smoke, avoiding the punch.
Bai Xing shrunk his perception to a size that just covered the cave. The deliberately compressed perception, when superimposed in such a small space, was naturally extremely sharp.
So, even though the man dodged as fast as a ghost, Bai Xing was still able to catch up quickly and hit him hard.
She was getting faster and faster, and the man was beginning to have trouble dodging.
Even without using those fancy attack methods, Bai Xing's attack power is still very strong relying solely on physical strength.
The momentum of each punch made her strength grow stronger and stronger.
The man began to have a hard time coping. He seemed to be restraining his strength, as if he was afraid of something.
Until Bai Xing's movements slowed down a bit, he immediately seized the opportunity, and as if wanting to make Bai Xing lose her fighting ability, he pressed down on her head with a palm.
Bai Xing frowned. She could have dodged this palm strike, but for some reason, her heart suddenly ached.
The man had been keeping an eye on her condition. When he saw her suddenly pause for a moment and a look of pain on her face, he suddenly appeared behind Bai Xing and slapped her again.
Bai Xing felt as if all his internal organs were shattered. Under such a powerful palm strike, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood.
She was dazed for a moment because of the severe pain, but she also realized that something was wrong.
The ball of black blood seemed to have consciousness, twisting and trying to escape.
The man suddenly appeared in its escape route and grabbed the black blood in his palm.
A ball of dark blue flame suddenly rose from his palm, burning all the black blood.
The black blood let out a sharp hissing sound and unwillingly disappeared completely in the flames.
The man in black then stood in front of Bai Xing with a complicated expression on his face. There was still no expression on his face, but a hint of confusion was faintly revealed.
"How are you?"
Bai Xing frowned: "Who are you?"
The man pursed his lips, as if he didn't want to say anything, but after hesitating for a moment, he answered obediently.
"I'm the temple keeper. Just call me Han."
"Han? Okay." Bai Xing nodded tentatively, "Then why did you knock me down?"
"I sensed a foreign and foul smell on you, and I thought..." He didn't finish his words, but Bai Xing knew what he wanted to say.
But she felt a little angry in her heart, but not towards Han, but towards herself and her good brother-in-law.
Obviously, there is no need for a second person to think about this kind of thing.
I don’t know when he made the move. If Han hadn’t discovered it, he might have continued to hide it.
"How should I leave here?" Bai Xing didn't want to stay here any longer.
Han hesitated for a moment: "You can't leave. Those who come down must pass the test of the temple before they can leave."
Bai Xing was silent.
Han thought about it, and even though he was slow-witted, he did feel that this matter was a bit unfair.
"Don't worry, the test is very simple. Even if you fail, the temple will send you away."
Bai Xing sighed. It seemed that there was no way to avoid it this time. Since there was no way to avoid it, she would just face it.
Seeing that she had made the decision, Han disappeared. Bai Xing wanted to ask about the situation inside, but he disappeared.
The huge stone door of the temple slowly opened, the ground shook slightly, and a huge rumbling sound echoed throughout the cave.
Bai Xing took a deep breath and stepped into the temple.
The light in the temple was dim, and the walls were engraved with mysterious runes. Those runes had faint energy flowing. When Bai Xing looked at them intently, she felt a little dazed and her eyes felt a stinging. She immediately withdrew her gaze, not daring to look any further.
Bai Xing moved forward cautiously.
Suddenly, a ray of light appeared in front, and a figure dressed in heavy and complicated clothes slowly emerged.
"Welcome to the temple, challenger." An old and deep voice sounded.
The figure gradually solidified, and an old man in a long robe appeared before his eyes. He had a kind face, but his eyes revealed a majesty that made people dare not underestimate him.
Just a projection brought Bai Xing a strong sense of oppression.
But when all this pressure fell on her, her expression didn't change at all, and she endured it.
Seeing this, the old man showed a look of satisfaction in his eyes.
"I am the guardian of the temple. You need to pass three tests before you can leave here. The first test is a test of wisdom. You need to answer the questions I ask." said the messenger.
Bai Xing nodded to show that she understood.
"In ancient times, there was a man named Wu Zi. One day, he found three stones in a stream near his home. One stone was red, one stone was blue, and the other stone was black."
"At this time, a merchant passed by and saw the stones in his hand. He showed a greedy look and said he wanted to buy the three stones."
As the words slowly fell, the scene in front of Bai Xing suddenly changed, and the picture became yellow.
The water was gurgling, and Bai Xing suddenly found herself standing barefoot in the water, and her slender white palms became rough and huge.
There were three stones in the palm of his hand, which were exactly the story the old man had just told.
The merchant had not appeared yet, but Bai Xing had already seen a figure walking towards this side from afar. They were about to reach the story point mentioned by the old man, where the merchant wanted to buy the three stones.
Why was she sent to this time?
What is so special about these three stones?
