“Haha, Brother Xu, you don’t look so good?”
Wang Tianjing mocked.
“Hmph, enough small talk... one 【earth】.”
Xu Hao cald his mind and calmly played a new target card.
“But ah, for Brother Xu’s character to be scared, could it be that this crossbow holds so hidden mystery...”
Wang Tianjing shook his head with emotion, while drawing two cards from the middle of his hand, placing them face down on the table, his voice slightly raised:
“Two 【earth】.”
Lu Ze slightly raised his eyebrow.
This kid was like many card players he had t in his previous life;
Once he lied, he would say many things to divert others' attention.
“Uh...”
Chen Yiyun’s gaze went back and forth between the cards Wang Tianjing played and her own hand.
After a long while, she finally made up her mind with a frown.
“Challenge!”
“Ah?”
Wang Tianjing was startled.
He never expected that Chen Yiyun, who looked harmless, would challenge him in the first round.
The cards were flipped over, revealing a 【heaven】 and a 【human】.
“I knew it... Brother Wang, Brother Wang, I didn’t expect you to be such a person, you actually lied to !”
Chen Yiyun gleefully fanned out her cards—
Four 【earth】 plus one 【demon】.
There were a total of 8 【earth】 cards in the deck, and 5 were in her hand.
So Wang Tianjing playing two 【earth】 was too fake.
He couldn’t possibly not keep a single real card in his hand, could he?
“An Illusion Realm... can that be called lying?”
Wang Tianjing’s old face flushed, and he imdiately spouted words like “all’s fair in war” and “strategy.”
He picked up the crossbow next to him and placed it against his temple.
In an instant, his originally relaxed body suddenly tensed up.
“Haha, Brother Wang, don’t wet your pants.”
Seeing this, Xu Hao couldn’t help but snicker.
As a witness, he naturally knew that Wang Tianjing must also be seeing his “death illusion” at this mont.
“Tch... what’s there to be afraid of?”
Wang Tianjing tried his best to steady his voice.
Although the subtle tremor in his wrist had already revealed his current state of mind.
“I am a Tianxuan Sect Disciple, I naturally understand the probability of hitting once in six tries!”
He roared, trying to cover up his fear.
Then, he closed his eyes and forcefully pulled the trigger.
“Fire!”
“Bang!!!”
An explosion sound, similar to a gunshot in his previous life, rang out.
A silver crossbow bolt engraved with runes pierced through Wang Tianjing’s head at an invisible speed.
Blood spurted from the bloody hole.
That incredibly terrified expression remained forever on Wang Tianjing’s face.
Wang Tianjing’s head fell heavily onto the card table, blood still slowly oozing from the bloody hole.
The atmosphere at the card table instantly beca tense.
Behind the card table, the performing artists began to pluck the strings of their instrunts.
A desolate BGM, imbued with killing intent, began to play.
Xu Hao and Chen Yiyun both couldn’t help but swallow their saliva.
Wang Tianjing, who seed to be the strongest, died on his very first trigger pull!
What probability, what one in six...
It was all a lie!
If your luck was bad, you’d die on the first shot!
Although it was only death in an Illusion Realm, the intense atmosphere still made them instinctively tense up.
“You guys hurry up...”
The mouth of the fallen Wang Tianjing’s “corpse” opened and closed.
“Hurry up and finish, then let’s play again! I’m not convinced this round!”
Xu Hao and Chen Yiyun were slightly stunned.
The oppressive atmosphere just now was diluted by the eerie talking corpse.
This was a ga design from the previous life’s “Liar’s Teahouse,” which Lu Ze had not changed.
When players pulled the trigger and shot the crossbow bolt, he used so thods to increase fear and imrsion;
But he also knew that continuous high pressure and fear were not advisable.
“Liar’s Teahouse” used cute animal images like pigs, dogs, and rabbits, plus interesting elents like being able to talk after death, to dilute the feeling of death and gore.
After all, this existed as a “ga,” and attracting more people to play was the top priority.
Xu Hao and Chen Yiyun exchanged a smile and, under Wang Tianjing’s constant nagging, continued the card ga.
The final outco surprised everyone.
Xu Hao, who initially seed the least likely to win, actually secured the victory.
This ford a stark contrast with Wang Tianjing, who was the first to be eliminated and was best at calculation and deduction.
“What a pity, what a pity, my cards in the last round were too bad...”
Chen Yiyun pounded the card table in annoyance.
“Damn it, Brother Xu, why is your fate so tough!?”
Wang Tianjing was furious.
He was very interested in this ga.
Unfortunately, he was eliminated in the second round and was itching to play while watching from the sidelines.
The key to Xu Hao winning the ga was that he survived 5 crossbow shots in one ga, simply refusing to die.
Perfectly illustrating what it ans to have “a tough fate.”
“Haha, it must be because Brother Wang, you’ve done too many bad deeds in your daily life!”
Xu Hao, having secured the first victory, was in high spirits.
This ga changed his perception of Illusion Realms, and also his perception of card and board gas.
Traditional board or card gas heavily relied on a person’s ability to deduce and calculate.
For rough people like them, who focused solely on cultivating Dao, it was very unfriendly.
But “Liar’s Teahouse” was different!
It was indeed as Lu Ze said, it tested both calculation and courage and luck!
And after playing this round, he even felt that calculation accounted for the smallest proportion!
Wang Tianjing, who was skilled in calculation, wasn’t he also eliminated by just one crossbow shot?
Overall, playing it made him feel incredibly refreshed.
“Again!”
Wang Tianjing eagerly suggested, completely forgetting that they had initially entered the Illusion Realm for the Secret Realm’s treasures.
“Co on, co on!”
Xu Hao and Chen Yiyun were equally excited and pressed ready again.
The three of them played ga after ga of this life-gambling ga.
...
...
At the sa ti.
Outside the Secret Realm.
The Elders, who had used various Sect secret techniques, had already gathered here.
The entire mountain range where the Secret Realm was located was completely sealed {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} off by the Elders using their Divine Sense.
“This Secret Realm... why is the Restriction strength so high!?”
After probing the protective Restrictions around the Secret Realm, Chao Wendao’s expression imdiately beca solemn.
The strength of the outer Restrictions was linked to the strength of the Restrictions or chanisms within the treasure ground.
With such powerful Secret Realm Restrictions, there were probably Advanced Restrictions around the treasure ground that limited Divine Sense or spells!
Normally, it wouldn’t be a big deal.
But if the Demonic Path had already set an ambush within, these inexperienced Disciples might suffer greatly!
The Elders of the various Sects all looked grim.
Especially the Masters of the four Disciples who had entered the Secret Realm.
Heaven knows what kind of crisis these four were facing inside the Secret Realm?
If there were really ruthless individuals from the Demonic Path who had entered using forbidden drugs or secret techniques...
The more they thought about it, the more anxious they beca.
“Not good!”
Chi Shengtian’s eyes narrowed, staring at the divination hexagram in his hand, his face instantly turning dark.
The Heavenly Dao Secret Realm’s Restrictions were extrely strong, making it difficult to divine the internal situation from the outside.
Chi Shengtian used a Sect secret technique to obtain so incomplete information about the four Disciples.
Only one word was written on the hexagram:
“Death.”
Everyone gasped.
Although they didn’t know who died, how many died, or how they died...
It was clear that sothing had happened.
And it was a major incident!!
“Don’t hesitate, let’s act together!”
Nangong Yuan frowned and urged.
“Good!”
The Elders and deacons all agreed.
With Chao Wendao at the center of the formation, dozens of Elders exerted their power simultaneously!
“Alas...”
Chao Wendao sighed deeply, his gaze filled with worry as he looked towards the Secret Realm.
“I wonder if they can still hold on inside...”
