Chapter 236: 236 – What You Need to Do
Others fear these mad demons, but Jiang Xiaobai does not.
The reason is simple. He didn’t even need to lift a finger. With a twitch of their lips, his two fathers could easily neutralize these mad demons that were like a tidal wave.
Moreover, it was highly likely that an acquired spiritual treasure or parts of it existed there.
The possibility of fragments was even higher. Because, if it were a whole acquired spiritual treasure, no one there, not even those at the tribulation stage, could approach it.
It would simply be suicide.
“Enough! Where did all this nonsense come from? Get moving, if you dare to babble and disturb our princess again, I will kill you!”
At this moment, the late-stage Transcendence expert who had been mocking Jiang Xiaobai all along coldly snorted and rolled his eyes at him.
Jiang Xiaobai clenched his fists, swallowing his anger and remaining silent.
He also glanced at Xiao Yuwei and found that this woman had no intention of helping him or even trying to stop the others.
Clearly, these people were acting according to Xiao Yuwei’s wishes. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be acting like this.
Jiang Xiaobai understood that Xiao Yuwei didn’t really trust him.
She just wanted these people to balance each other out.
Bullying him…
“Hmm, wait and see. Once I get a chance, if I don’t kill all of you, I’ll take your surname!”
Jiang Xiaobai gritted his teeth and sneered inwardly, then continued on his way.
Along the way, the scenery was much the same. Everywhere was pitch black. Previously, he could still see a bit of light in the sky, but now, except for the occasional, bioluminescent plants on the ground, when he raised his head, all he saw was a darkness.
According to Xiao Yuwei, there was no sky above them anymore. They were completely underground.
The roof was covered with rocks.
To the side, it was an endless expanse of darkness, occasionally spotted by glowing plants. They didn’t have any intention of exploring nearby, but instead hurried on their way.
“Aren’t there any resources here?” Jiang Xiaobai asked curiously.
“No, this place is very spacious, covering dozens of miles. Strong individuals from the Thousand Yuan Dynasty have explored here before and found no useful resources. It’s simply a desert,” Xiao Yuwei said indifferently, “No, even in a desert, one can still find something good. But here, besides desolation, there is only desolation, nothing at all.”
“If it wasn’t for entering the Mad Demon Secret Land, I wouldn’t want to stay here for one more second.’
Jiang Xiaobai remained silent, continuing on his way while observing the surroundings. Indeed, there was no movement.
But it’s worth mentioning that Jiang Xiaobai noticed that although the Thousand Yuan Dynasty was united in forming a large team, there was a big gap in the middle of the team.
Each prince or princess’s group kept a certain distance from the others. Normally, they would move like this, only coming together in case of a crisis like when they encountered the mad demons.
Moreover, along the way, the princes and princesses never said a word to each other.
In contrast, the disciples of the sects not far away were quite lively, chattering away even while travelling.
After over an hour, Jiang Xiaobai noticed that the group at the front had stopped.
Because the surroundings were so dark, like a black hole that could absorb light, apart from the eerie glowing plants, he could hardly see anything else. Even with illumination, visibility was only about one meter.
“We have arrived. The place with miasma is ahead of us. Everyone, use your spiritual power to protect your bodies to prevent the miasma invasion.”
Xiao Yuwei suddenly spoke, then turned to Jiang Xiaobai, “Remember, you must not remove your spiritual power protection in the miasma area. Once the miasma invades, with your strength, you will become a walking corpse wandering in a daze within five breaths, eventually dying from erosion.”
“Once we enter, I will tell you what to do!”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded, his expression becoming more serious.
So, it’s finally time for him to be of use, is it?
Before coming here, Jiang Xiaobai had thought about taking advantage of the opportunity when Xiao Yuwei tasked him with something to escape, but he didn’t dare to do so now.
The environment was extremely harsh. If he made a rash move and ran off, losing his direction once his spiritual power was insufficient, it would be over.
Also, it would be impossible to use the spiritual energy between heaven and earth to maintain his spiritual power health in the miasma area.
Because only miasma remained there, without a trace of spiritual energy. Attempting direct cultivation would be courting death.
At this moment, all the cultivators were prepared for a great battle.
“According to Xiao Yuwei, once we enter the miasma area, that’s when the real bloodshed begins,”
Jiang Xiaobai communicated with AnRan, “At that time, don’t act recklessly.
Stay close to me.”
AnRan obediently nodded, her expression very grave.
With their spiritual power protecting them, the miasma couldn’t invade their bodies. It seemed to hate spiritual power, and Jiang Xiaobai noticed that if the miasma found it couldn’t quickly affect someone, it would directly leave.
But once this terrifying poison sensed an opportunity, it would crazily invade the cultivator’s meridians.
Any person affected by it would meet an extremely miserable fate, there was no doubt in Jiang Xiaobai’s mind about this.
After entering the miasma area, the air around him felt stickier, making moving around quite an effort.
Moreover, Xiao Yuwei had mentioned that the area of the miasma was vast, covering hundreds of kilometers. A Transcendence stage powerhouse could only sustain their full spiritual power for about ten minutes.
It was the perfect example of the dreadfulness of miasma and the danger of this place.
Inside the area, there were many glowing plants on the ground, each emitting a different color of light—some blue, some purple.
Not long after entering, the Thousand Yuan Dynasty’s groups began to scatter, rushing off in all directions.
Not just the Thousand Yuan Dynasty, but also the disciples from various sects did the same, seeking opportunities and treasures in their surroundings.
This was essentially an unwritten agreement among the four sects and the five mountains. The first thing they needed to do upon arriving here was to seize the advantages.
Those scattered cultivators and descendants from various families didn’t dare to do this. They were all focused on the treasures within the Mad Demon Secret Land. If they could find some benefits along the way, they would naturally collect them, but they would not waste their time here.
They continued on their way while looking for opportunities.
Soon, only Xiao Yuwei and Jiang Xiaobai, among others, were standing on the spot.
Seeing that everyone else had left, Xiao Yuwei’s face revealed a ferocious grin.
She took out a gem from her storage ring. The gem contained a faintly majestic aura.
“This is called Frenzy Demon Stone. The energy inside it is extremely terrifying. One Frenzy Demon Stone is comparable to thousands of high-grade spirit stones.”
Xiao Yuwei turned to Qin Chen, “What you need to do is very simple. Before we leave, you must collect twenty of these gems..”
