Chapter 389

On the other side!

Lin Bai stood tall amidst the firmament, then slowly descended. Looking at the crowd still lost in a daze, he shrugged indifferently.

He then walked straight into the Blood River, treading upon piles of white bones, leaving one footprint per step, and crossed to the opposite bank!

After a long while, Meng Zi and the others finally came to their senses. Seeing Lin Bai's figure growing distant, they immediately grew anxious.

If Lin Bai's first breakthrough of the illusionary realm relied on a precious sword, then everything that just happened completely convinced them of his strength!

How could such a thigh possibly be allowed to run away?

Meng Zi immediately led the group into the Blood River, following Lin Bai's figure deep into the island!

Only the others remained frozen in disbelief, still immersed in the scene just witnessed, unable to return to their senses for a long time!

After a long while, the others also suddenly realized the truth. Now, how would they dare mock Lin Bai? His strength had already been displayed right there!

With a Golden Core Realm cultivation, he could shatter the arrogant Blood River; now he has become a master of the Myriad Phenomena Realm, far exceeding them by several times!

If one still clings to a disdainful mindset at this moment, then one is truly a great fool!

07 They followed without hesitation, leaving only the person wearing underwear standing there, wishing to cry but unable to.

Just now, he had already offended Lin Bai; unless he was willing to throw his face away completely, he truly dared not follow!

But thinking carefully, since that person is so strong, how could he possibly care about such a small matter?

As long as I prostrate myself completely at that time, I can absolutely recover the situation!

Thinking thus, he no longer hesitated and walked straight after them!

On the other side, Lin Bai walked slowly through the dense forest, passing through layers of trees, pushing aside the branches before him, only to reveal an endless great desert!

An expansive and boundless sea of sand, stretching as far as the eye can see.

At first glance, it resembles a world of absolute quiet; dunes stretch on, wind and sand sweep across, seemingly devoid of any sign of life.

However, upon close observation, one discovers that this desert reveals murderous intent everywhere; countless tiny sand grains dance in the wind, whipping up gusts of howling sandstorms.

A gloomy aura permeates the desert, making one shiver with fear.

Distant mountain ridges are faintly visible, as if ancient ruins buried by sand dunes; broken stone tablets and crumbling walls upon the ridges reveal the ruthlessness of time and the baptism of war.

This place, which once witnessed danger and bloodshed, still emits a cold aura.

Various dangerous creatures hide within the great desert; countless venomous snakes and fierce beasts lurk beneath the dunes, waiting for those who accidentally step into their territory.

Every breeze that blows brings not a refreshing scent, but a threat to life.

Even in such an environment, the desert still possesses a strange attraction; it is a boundary-less maze, tempting adventurers to enter and explore the secrets it hides.

But at the same time, it also means the arrival of immense danger and death.

The scene of the great desert is both tranquil and turbulent, evoking a feeling of both terror and longing; in this seemingly silent desert, everyone must remain alert, ready at all times to face the test of life and death.

Lin Bai came to his senses; he spread out his palm to observe for a moment, discovering that after entering the Myriad Phenomena Realm, the things he could see seemed to have increased.

This might be the state of mind brought about by the advancement in realm!

Following his line of sight, he stepped into the desert step by step; all kinds of hidden dangers along the way were quietly avoided by him.

The entire process was as easy as walking on flat ground!

But the howling sandstorms that occasionally swept by forced him to close his eyes and dodge!

Wind and sand howled, visibility was limited; he maintained constant alertness, carefully weaving through this dangerous environment.

But suddenly, an inexplicable sense of fatigue surged into his heart, causing him to wonder, "What is going on?"

Just as he felt the fatigue gradually surging, he suddenly discovered a mysterious palace standing at the end of the desert.

This palace was towering and solemn, emitting a strange and ancient aura; the walls were carved with bizarre and tangled patterns, revealing an indescribable sense of mystery.

Lin Bai, braving the obstruction of wind and sand, painfully stepped into the entrance of the palace; a cold aura rushed to meet him, causing his whole body to shiver.

Upon entering the palace, he felt an inexplicable sense of oppression, as if invisible forces were pressing down on his body and soul.

He stepped into a spacious hall; the hall was filled with dim light, making it difficult to see the surroundings clearly.

In the center of the hall stood a huge throne, upon which sat a figure draped in black robes. He could not see the other's face, but could feel a powerful and evil aura emanating from that figure.

Lin Bai's heart was filled with alertness; he tried to find an escape route, but an invisible force tightly bound him, preventing him from moving a single step.

The atmosphere in the palace became even more bizarre; roars and low whispers echoed from all sides. He felt that the spiritual power within his body seemed to be sucked away by invisible forces, and his body gradually grew weak.

Lin Bai looked up at the black-robed figure on the throne; his eyes flashed with determined light. Although he felt fear unlike any before, he did not abandon his will to resist.

He took a deep breath, and a fearless courage radiated from his entire body.

Suddenly, the black-robed figure let out a sharp laugh, and its figure began to blur.

Lin Bai felt his body gradually thawing; he quickly made a decision, turned around, and rushed swiftly toward the hall's exit.

In the instant he escaped the palace, he heard a piercing shriek; the entire palace began to collapse, dust flying everywhere.

Lin Bai rushed out of the palace and looked back; he saw only ruins, with no trace of the palace to be found.

Lin Bai felt cold sweat pouring down his back; he knew he had nearly fallen into the trap of the mysterious palace.

Just now, he wanted to draw his sword and directly slay the black-clad man, but for some reason, the sword in his hand gave no response at all!

This made his expression extremely tense; otherwise, he would not have run out in such a wretched state!

Although he has now advanced to the Myriad Phenomena Realm, the oppressive feeling given by that black-clad man was extremely intense; if his guess is correct, that person's realm is at least the Supreme Realm!

But thinking carefully, that doesn't seem right; that black-clad man had no intention of killing him, only of driving him out of this palace.

If he truly were of the Supreme Realm, in a situation where I cannot use my sword, he could kill me with a single thought!

Combining this with the situation in the Blood River earlier, he understood!

All the trials in this test can only proceed when everyone has arrived!
