Chapter 297: 297 – Truly Made it Through
It was in a cave, the light dim, but the concentration of aura around was to the extreme, as if it were to condense into droplets.
“The goal of this stage is simple, break through a minor realm in three days, and you pass,”
The white-bearded elder casually said, “You young people today are not up to the mark. You really can’t compare to the old days.”
“Have you ever seen someone establish their foundation in a year?”
“Break through Dividing the Gods in three years?”
“Those were the norms in your time, you guys now don’t even come close.”
“Don’t think this test is impossible for you, for someone with exceptional talent, the concentration of aura here is totally sufficient.”
The white-bearded old man spoke naturally while stroking his beard.
At first, he was looking forward to seeing Jiang Xiaobai breaking through all the challenges and felt quite satisfied.
But after experiencing it a few times, he found this young man to be shameless, not only unashamed but showing off too.
The old man was a bit embarrassed by such a person.
He purposely reduced the time from one month to three days, not wanting Jiang Xiaobai to pass and rid him off his sight.
What he did not expect was, listening to his words, Jiang Xiaobai just nodded and started cultivating without any wasted words.
And the terrifying scene of cultivation was truly unprecedented for the white-bearded old man!
Jiang Xiaobai was like a giant vortex, sucking the surrounding aura crazily into his dantian. His immense and terrifying capacity nearly shocked the white-bearded old man’s jaw off.
“W-what… what kind of method is this kid using to cultivate?”
“Is he making a fool out of me?”
The white-bearded old man was going insane, watching precious aura being absorbed by Jiang Xiaobai with his own eyes, his heart was bleeding!
But he knew he absolutely cannot disturb Jiang Xiaobai now, or else a major problem could occur.
He could only watch as everything unfolded, frustrated and helpless.
Jiang Xiaobai on the side could only chuckle in his heart. Free aura absorption!
Moreover, the degree of aura concentration here is much more potent than absorbing top-grade spirit stones. Such a bargain is not to be missed.
“Humph, trying to fool me with three days, does he take me for a fool?”
“If it weren’t for my Kunpeng Swallowing Sky Skill this kind of unbeatable skill, who the hell could complete this!”
Jiang Xiaobai chuckled to himself and then started to absorb the aura with full force.
Soon, a day passed. Jiang Xiaobai suddenly felt as if his dantian expanded followed by a very pure spiritual power born in his dantian, beginning to flow through his limbs.
Transcendence intermediate stage, broken through!
In one day!
“Good thing I have the Kunpeng Swallowing Sky Skill, and the concentration of aura is high, otherwise one day is not enough, at least two days.”
Jiang Xiaobai secretly rejoiced.
This time, he saved almost tens of billions of top-grade spirit stones!
A great windfall!
“Stop dawdling, old man, next!”
“I…!”
The white-bearded old man felt like vomiting blood, he could only stare as the scene changed again.
Testing demonic possession of the original spirit couldn’t be carried out, so they directly came to the last stage, surrounded by wooden men!
As soon as Jiang Xiaobai descended into the scene, five hundred wooden men at the Transcendence intermediate stage immediately besieged him without hesitation. The overwhelming scene almost made Jiang Xiaobai spit blood.
“Is this something a human can pass through?”
“I am certain Zhuang Huanling knew the insider details, that damned woman, absolutely shameless!”
Jiang Xiaobai cursed as he pulled out his top-grade long sword and began fighting. Although it was a struggle during the earlier stages of Transcendence, it was easier now.
But in the end, there were just too many wooden men!
Even though the wooden men couldn’t do anything to Jiang Xiaobai, he would definitely run out of spiritual power if they kept fighting like this. Once his spiritual power runs out, he would be done for.
“But it’s okay, I have plenty of medicinal pills!”
Jiang Xiaobai laughed wildly, although the number of wooden men was overwhelming, he was not at all afraid.
With a laugh, there was a sense of defiance – ‘though millions of people may come, I shall prevail.’
The long sword constantly swung, creating formidable bursts of sword light. With one stroke, Jiang Xiaobai could easily sweep away a large number of wooden men.
As time went on, Jiang Xiaobai also figured out how to pass this stage.
First, there’s no limit to the boundary of the battlefield, as long as his spiritual power is sufficient, he can slowly endure passage of time and pass.
He estimated that Zhuang Huanling knew this and had prepared in advance.
Moreover, although the number of wooden men was huge, only a few men were able to threaten Jiang Xiaobai at any given moment.
As long as he could kill a wooden man in one stroke, without any hitches, he would not get stuck in the loop.
It was still quite simple.
“Hmph, do I seem like the kind of person who runs away in the middle of a fight?”
“Just fight them head-on!”
“Bring the pills!”
Jiang Xiaobai laughed as he popped a handful of pills into his mouth, which healed his injuries and replenished his spiritual power from the excessive drug effects.
The only person who could use medicinal pills so recklessly was Jiang Xiaobai.
The white-bearded old man on the side was used to all this by now, but he was concerned about one thing.
What should he do if this damn kid really passes all the stages?
“This is a sin!”
The white-bearded old man cried in his heart, if he had known earlier, why bother?
But now, nothing could be done.
He knew that if Jiang Xiaobai continues like this, he will surely pass the stages.
“Damn, if I had known, I should have let him experience demonic possession of the original spirit!”
The white-bearded old man cursed in his heart, but soon after, he became stunned.
Watching Jiang Xiaobai ruthlessly challenging the wooden men, an immature idea came into the old man’s head.
What if this damn kid really has a way to deal with demonic possession of the original spirit?
With that, he sucked in a cold breath.
And then, about an hour later, after Jiang Xiaobai had consumed an unknown number of medical pills, all the wooden men were finally killed.
After the killings, the corpses of the wooden men slowly turned into ashes, gathered in the air, and formed a red wooden man the size of a small house.
Power was at the late stage of Transcendence!
Truthfully, for people with lower realms, this is extremely beneficial.
As long as they could withstand the first wave of the wooden man’s siege, this last stage was almost guaranteed to pass!
The moment that wooden man was formed and roared at the sky, a brilliant sword light flashed.
The huge red wooden man had been split into two.
By now, all six secret stages had been cleared!
It only took three days!
Effortlessly slaying the wooden man, Jiang Xiaobai appeared before the white-bearded old man.
“Old man, where’s the big surprise, the great secret you promised?”
“It’s time to deliver!”
