Chapter 510: Chapter 511: You should have some shame
 

Jiang Xiaobai didn’t forget that the most important task this time was to search for treasures during his entrance into the secret realm.

While this sojourn in the secret plane wouldn’t significantly enhance their strength, Mu Qingyu had hinted previously that this plane was filled with countless treasures!

There was even an artifact here that the Towards Heaven Sect would also covet.

Previously, Zhuang Huanling and others had proposed a plan to go to the Towards Heaven Sect, which had been accepted by all.

In Jiang Xiaobai’s opinion, it was necessary to venture into the sacred city. Their abilities were already top-notch in the Eastern Region and there wasn’t much of interest left for them.

Moving to a new territory without a springboard would prove to be quite a hassle.

So, upon seeing a small door open, both of them immediately had their eyes glowing and they quickly approached it.

At this point, in the entire hall, they were the only ones who were fully conscious!

If there were treasures, naturally the priority was to obtain them!

Jiang Xiaobai and Ao Yan carefully approached and, upon a closer look, both their eyes widened in amazement!

This small door led to a secret chamber filled with treasures!

They were all treasures!

And of very high grades; Jiang Xiaobai even saw several divine-class items. Although he didn’t need them, they were his own gains after all!

The only thing that puzzled Jiang Xiaobai was why there were so many treasures here. Did it mean that he could take them all away?

Could this be an illusion again?

At this moment, both looked at each other, seeing confusion in each other’s eyes.

“Well, never mind that. The presence of the laws of Heaven and Earth can be sensed here, it couldn’t be an illusion!”

“As long as the treasures are here, we can take them all, and distribute them when we leave!”

Jiang Xiaobai chuckled, not willing to check what was there in that moment, instead opting to store them all in his space for later!

What Jiang Xiaobai didn’t expect was that after he took everything, and turned around, there was a man standing at the entrance of the secret chamber!

This man was of a mid-stage Tribulation Crossing cultivation level and was intently staring at Jiang Xiaobai and Ao Yan.

“Hand over the things.”

The man said coldly.

As it turned out, this man had also passed the illusion trial, but the timing was just too good, allowing him to witness Jiang Xiaobai taking all the treasures!

This was troublesome!

However, Jiang Xiaobai was not weak, even if the man saw him, it was basically impossible for him to take out the things that had already gone into his pocket!

Well, the incident with the Creepy Dude was an exception.

“You must be Jiang Xiaobai, well-known in the Eastern Region, you sure live up to your reputation. Being able to break through the illusion in the first and second rounds only proves your strength.”

“I’m not a tyrant,” the man continued coolly, “You can choose one item less than divine class among the treasures. The rest, hand them all over to me!”

“Consider this a sign of respect. Otherwise, do not blame me for being ruthless!”

At his words, Jiang Xiaobai could not help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

What a non-tyrannical person indeed?

Could you be any more shameless while making these demands?

“You are somewhat amusing. Do you not understand the principle of first come, first served?”

Jiang Xiaobai scoffed, “The treasures here are meant for the one who comes first. As the third one here, you can only eat dust.”

“Heh, you sure live up to your reputation. Quite the sharp tongue.”

The man sneered, “But I only believe in one thing, the treasures belong to those who are capable!”

With that, the man’s aura erupted, sending out a cold and intimidating aura. The pressure from his mid-stage Tribulation cultivation level started to envelop Jiang Xiaobai and Ao Yan.

What surprised him, however, was that the two showed no change in their expressions.

“You think you’re enough on your own?”

Not only that, but Jiang Xiaobai also managed to sneak a smile as he took out Yuan Hong from his storage space.

“Of course I know that treasures belong to those who are capable, but Lord here didn’t want to offend others. A mere mid-stage Tribulation practicer, what are you, really?”

“I don’t want to make many enemies, so please step aside. If you insist on causing trouble, I’m not afraid to fight.”

Immediately, the man’s brows furrowed.

Had this kid gone mad?

He even looked at Jiang Xiaobai’s ranking, which was indeed in the late stages of Dividing the Gods!

What was he thinking, threatening him with the strength of the late stage of Dividing the Gods?

Or did he think that having Ao Yan, who was at the peak of the Fusion stage, by his side was enough?

“Kid, you’re not only causing trouble, but you’re also extremely arrogant.”

The man gritted his teeth, emitting an icy aura, “This is your last chance. Hand over the things. Don’t think that just because you have a Master backing you, our Heavenly Sword Sect fears you!”

“You should understand the might of a sword cultivator!”

Heavenly Sword Sect!

Jiang Xiaobai was again encountering this sect for the second time.

But, so what?

If they really wanted to stir up trouble, so be it!

Just as Jiang Xiaobai was preparing to take action, the people standing in the main hall who were experiencing the illusion all woke up one after another.

The instant many of them regained consciousness, they still maintained the movements and expressions from within the illusion.

Some even had blood red eyes and murderous intent, desiring to kill everyone in sight!

However, without the influence of the environment, everyone regained their composure quickly. They all stared at each other in bewilderment.

Seeing that everyone was awake, the master of the Heavenly Sword Sect was also gnashing his teeth.

If it were the previous situation where they were all experiencing the environment, it would be easy to kill Jiang Xiaobai and take away the treasures without startling anyone. No one would know, and he could simple leave.

But now it was different!

Everyone was awake. If he continued to snatch the treasures, the others would also get involved.

“What’s going on?”

At this time, Ao Cheng saw the situation of Jiang Xiaobai and the others in a daze. He immediately snorted and walked up, and the others also surrounded them.

Six people against fourteen!

“My friends, have you all ended your illusion trials?” The expert from the Heavenly Sword Sect arched an eyebrow, a glint in his eye.

Hearing his words, everyone shook their heads.

“It’s not that we have passed the trials. I was still undergoing the trials when I was suddenly awakened.”

“Exactly, I was enjoying the company of the beautiful women in the illusion, when it suddenly dissipated. I was almost infuriated to death!”

“It seems like everyone’s trials have been suddenly interrupted, but why did it happen?”

Everyone was talking about it, not understanding what was happening.

As for Jiang Xiaobai and others who genuinely passed the trial, they probably had an understanding of the situation.

Especially Jiang Xiaobai, who quickly put together all the clues, and couldn’t help but feel the urge to curse.

The one who designed these trials was truly disgusting, placing all rewards outside, deliberately waiting for those who passed the points to come and compete for them.

That in itself was understandable, but according to Jiang Xiaobai’s guess, every round of trials involving twenty competitors would interrupt the remainder as soon as three people passed, regardless of the stage they had reached in the trials.

Then, naturally, the remaining contenders would stumble upon the scene of three people fighting over the treasures, ultimately leading to a chaotic melee!

“The designer of these trials is truly disgustingly bizarre!”

Jiang Xiaobai muttered angrily in his heart, gripping the hilt of Yuan Hong tightly in his hand.

He felt that the master of the Heavenly Sword Sect would definitely make a move soon!

He had seen all the treasures and he wouldn’t let it go just like that!
