Chapter 574: Chapter 574: Powerful Jiang Xiaobai
 

However, Jiang Xiaobai was still unaware of the situation at hand and decided not to stir things up just yet.

At the same time, he understood why Gu Ning had said that if he failed here, there was no need for him to enter the Abyssal Chasm.

The idea was to make Jiang Xiaobai everyone’s enemy in the Abyss Forbidden Land!

“Damn it, you can’t pull a fast one like that on your apprentice,” Jiang Xiaobai muttered as he picked a random passageway to enter.

According to the information he had, the three passageways each led to different trials.

The one he chose was for a combat trial!

There were a total of nine levels. Passing one level would earn certain cultivation resources, and if one could pass all nine levels, there would be unlimited access to this Abyss Forbidden Land area.

However, this required passing all nine levels in one attempt, which means everyone only got one shot!

After all, if one did not manage to pass all nine levels in one go, the next attempt would resume from the last-passed level.

For instance, if one passed the third level during the first attempt, the second attempt would start from the third level, with the fourth one as the next goal.

However, so far, no one had managed to pass all nine levels in one go.

Many people suspected that the Abyss Forbidden Land was cheating, using this gimmick to lure people in.

Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t care less about whether it was a scam or not. He just wanted to see what good stuff was there in the Abyss Forbidden Land.

He was only a passerby here. His ultimate goal was to enter the Abyssal Chasm.

Passing through the entrance, a large array could be seen in front.

Quite a few people were gathered around the array, around a hundred or so.

They were at different stages, ranging from Great Achievement to the Fusion Period.

Only one person was able to enter the clearance trial each time, while the others could witness the situation inside through the array projection.

What Jiang Xiaobai hadn’t anticipated was the near hundred-plus people here, meaning at least ten thousand World Stones had been used.

Were there really that many World Stones?

These people were not all from the Holy City. Jiang Xiaobai learned from his investigations that the Tianxuan Continent was divided into four regions: East, West, South, and North.

Each region had a special area near the center of the continent, similar to the Holy City, gathering powerful people from all over the continent.

These people glanced at Jiang Xiaobai when he approached, but then continued to focus on the array projection.

Through the projection, Jiang Xiaobai saw a man and a woman fighting fiercely in the projected image.

The fight was brutal, with both sides in the Peak of the Late Fusion Stage, but the woman was obviously stronger than the man!

After an intense battle that lasted more than ten minutes, the man was finally destroyed.

Then, a person was thrown out from the array, it was the man who had been shattered. Jiang Xiaobai finally realized that this array had similarities with the arena in the Battle God Space.

“Who’s next? Doesn’t anyone want to go in?”

At this point, a man in his Mid-Fusion Stage showed interest, but no one answered.

The man entered the array with a cold snort, indicating the beginning of the challenge.

The first level!

His opponent was a burly Early Fusion Stage warrior, but he wasn’t even a match for this brawny man.

After getting hammered, he was thrown out of the array.

His face flushed red with embarrassment as he dared not look at anyone, fearing being laughed at.

However, no one paid him any mind and nobody seemed to want to enter the array next.

Watching closely, Jiang Xiaobai saw that no one else was stepping forward, he decided to go in and check the situation out for himself.

As he moved towards the array, everyone looked at him with indifference, Jiang Xiaobai even felt they looked at him with a certain kind of amusement.

He reasoned that the array challenge must be quite difficult.

However, since he was already there, Jiang Xiaobai saw no reason to stop.

Once he entered the array, he felt the scene in front of him change, and found himself standing on a stage, with the brawny man from the first level right in front.

The instant the two appeared, the man charged towards Jiang Xiaobai. His speed was high, but to Jiang Xiaobai, it was nothing at all.

When he attempted to summon his weapon, he found that, like the Battle God Space, he couldn’t use his real-world belongings here.

He had to rely on his own strength to fight.

However, he was able to materialize a longsword. Holding the sword tightly, Jiang Xiaobai dodged the brawny man’s attack and struck him between the brows with a single stroke.

The brawny man turned into starlight and dissipated in front of Jiang Xiaobai. After a short three seconds, another burly man appeared.

This one was at the Mid-Fusion Stage.

With a single stroke of his sword, Jiang Xiaobai still easily killed him.

Seeing this, the spectators outside the array were shocked. From their expressions, Jiang Xiaobai could tell they initially underestimated him, but were now looking at him seriously.

Everyone’s eyes were glued to the projected scene, they perceived Jiang Xiaobai as a sort of monster.

Despite the numerous attempts, even the mid-stage tribulation-takers had trouble killing the second-level opponents with a single stroke!

With each opponent Jiang Xiaobai killed with ease, stronger ones appeared. Still, he was able to defeat them with a single stroke.

This made him doubt, was this trail really as challenging as the rumor made it out to be?

So far, he had killed all his opponents effortlessly.

The fourth level, a woman at the Peak of the Late Fusion Stage.

Still, an easy kill.

The fifth level, initial stage of Tribulation.

The sixth level, mid-stage of Tribulation.

The seventh level, peak of the Late Tribulation Stage.

Only when a master of the initial stage of the Great Achievement Stage appeared in the eighth level, Jiang Xiaobai had a bit of a challenge!

Even so, it only took him a minute to defeat the opponent.

The ninth level, mid-stage of Great Achievement!

Looking at this opponent, Jiang Xiaobai could feel a bit of the prowess of the masters inside the Battle God Space.

Although it was kind of tough, he still managed to win within three minutes.

Just like that, he easily cleared the entire trial in less than ten minutes!

The skilled fighters watching from outside the array were stunned; some even rubbed their eyes.

No one could believe what they had just seen.

A man in the late stage of Great Achievement had easily passed this intensely difficult array trial?

It was as if he was joking with them!

“Impossible, absolutely impossible!”

“Who is this guy? How can he be so powerful? I’ve never heard of anyone being this strong before.”

“Has the array malfunctioned?”

The crowd discussed among themselves as Jiang Xiaobai exited the array. He noticed the astonished looks on their faces but did not react.

From the moment his primordial spirit had been successfully cultivated, they were in different worlds.

Jiang Xiaobai was not arrogant, but he felt there was no need to show off in front of them.

It was nothing but a waste of time.

At this point, a guardian of the Abyss Forbidden Land appeared.

Giving Jiang Xiaobai a solemn look, he gestured for him to follow.
