Xin Lin squinted and looked around.
Not long after, a loud scream ca from Wanshi Mountain.
It was Ma Jingtian, his face pale as he staggered and crawled out of the labyrinth.
"Snakes, so many snakes!"
Ma Jingtian gasped heavily, his appearance utterly panicked.
He had just entered Wanshi Mountain when he encountered a large group of snakes, each as thick as a barrel, blocking his path, forcing him to flee in utter disarray.
Snakes?
Xin Lin frowned as he observed the entrance of the labyrinth.
Several skillful pilgrims, skeptical, also entered Wanshi Mountain one after another.
However, soon they, like Ma Jingtian, fled in a disheveled state.
"Ghosts, so many Evil Ghosts inside, they want my life."
"Such huge fire, it’s a mountain of blades and a sea of flas inside, absolutely no thods to get through."
"So many corpses, bodies everywhere."
Each pilgrim who went in ca back defeated, their reactions varied.
Could it be that this small Wanshi Mountain hid so many formidable things?
"Ma Jingtian, are there snakes, beasts, or Evil Ghosts inside?"
Xin Lin asked in astonishnt, looking at the varied reactions of the people.
Observing their reactions, it didn’t seem like they were pretending.
"Little Boss, I dare to guarantee with the lives of my dozen concubines, it really was giant snakes. This cursed place is impassable, Little Boss, let’s not risk our lives, let’s think of other thods to Transcend these Yin Sha."
Even now, Ma Jingtian hadn’t co to his senses, his face still pale.
Not only Ma Jingtian, but many of the twenty-plus pilgrims who initially ca to see the Minister of Imperial Sacrificial Worship, after seeing others’ experiences, mostly got cold feet and left Zhongji Courtyard.
From over twenty people, only four or five remained.
Seeing that Noon had already passed, yet still no one was able to get through Wanshi Mountain.
Xin Lin looked at Wanshi Mountain, then glanced at the Ancient Bronze Sword in his hand.
"Life Book prompt, accumulate 100 Heaven-defying Value, initiate Heaven-defying task mode. Heaven-defying Task One, Transcend the spirits. Complete the task and obtain a free dice roll. Fail the task, deduct 20 Heaven-defying Value."
Just when Xin Lin was hesitant, a golden light flashed suddenly in his mind from the Heaven-defying Book, and a line of text appeared in Xin Lin’s mind.
"!!!"
Xin Lin appeared baffled.
What situation was this now?
Deduct Heaven-defying Value if the task isn’t completed?
Life Book, you’re being whimsical again!
Despite complaining, Xin Lin knew that the Heaven-defying Book was famously resolute; if the task wasn’t completed, Heaven-defying Value would indeed be deducted.
Heaven-defying Value could be used to make Spiritual Food, which was very useful, Xin Lin couldn’t afford to lose it recklessly.
"Still not giving up? If I were you, I would have scramd already."
Huang Zhijun, who saw Xin Lin not leaving, mockingly said.
Compared to other pilgrims, Huang Zhijun and her father seed much calr.
They hadn’t blindly entered Wanshi Mountain, but were waiting outside.
Xin Lin ignored Huang Zhijun; she looked around and saw the deaf and mute monk, quickly approaching him.
"Doesn’t know life from death, a deaf and dumb person, how could he help."
Huang Zhijun sneered.
"Daddy, why hasn’t your contact arrived?"
Huang Zhijun, seeing that most people in Zhongji Courtyard had left, urged her father.
"Don’t worry, they’ll be here soon. I spent thirty thousand taels to get that person, rest assured, you will definitely enter Qingtian Academy."
Minister Huang reassured her.
