Chapter Ninety-Four: Artiste's Boldness
within the vast expanse of ten thousand mountains, one would be unable to witness the appearance of this mirageThen, at this very moment, are they also unable to see this mirage"Boom!"Just then, the...On the third day of climbing, at the foot of Baishou Peak, it was packed with people, so crowded that there was no space to move. Even in the sky above, dozens of figures could be seen standing.
Although these figures included peak masters, elders, and inner disciples—all rare sights in normal times—at this moment, all the disciples' gazes were focused solely on—Hidden Peak!
Over the course of two consecutive days of peak challenges, Jiang Yun's extraordinary performance not only sparked interest among these peak masters, elders, and inner disciples, but also made everyone subtly realize that perhaps Jiang Yun might attempt to challenge the three peaks.
That is why they are all gathered here, waiting for Ginger Cloud's arrival.
"The current scene couldn't help but evoke a sense of nostalgia in Dao Tianyou. 'It’s been so long since I've seen such a grand occasion,' he mused. 'When I first took over as sect leader, it was just like this!' "
Not long after, under the eager anticipation of the crowd, four figures appeared in their sight. It was Jiang Yun and Dongfang Bo and the other two.
As soon as Jiang Yun appeared, the many disciples gathered under Beasts Peak were instantly excited and actively stepped back several steps to make way for Jiang Yun and his four companions.
Thank you!
Jiang Yun naturally didn't forget his manners. After thanking the disciples around him, he followed this road and came to the foot of Baishou Peak, walking to the front of the crowd.
Here, there are nearly two hundred disciples. Although Jiang Yun didn't intentionally look around, he could keenly feel a pair of eyes filled with hatred staring at him - Fang Ruolin!
Fang Ruolin had already learned about Jiang Yun's performance during his two days of climbing the peak, and this made her hate Jiang Yun even more.
Apart from the old grievances, there were new ones because she believed that Jiang Yun had stolen her brother's limelight and fame.
Seeing Fang Ruolin, a flash of ferocity crossed Jiang Yun's eyes. Both Lu Xiaoyu's and his own experiences within the Wen Dao Sect stemmed from this woman!
When she discovered Ginger Cloud was looking at her, Fang Ruolin gave a cold smile and averted her gaze, as if she wasn't interested in making eye contact with Ginger Cloud at all.
Jiang Yun also restrained the ferocity in his eyes, standing calmly among the crowd. After a moment, the figure of Wan Hongbo, the master of Baishou Peak, finally appeared in the air.
Wan Hongbo first greeted the surrounding peak masters and elders, then went straight to the point: "Please, the Phantom Beast Chart!"
"Boom!"
In the midst of a deafening roar, Mount Baishou trembled violently. Under everyone's gaze, the entire mountain landscape was slowly changing.
It feels as if Mount Beasts is being transformed into a painting, and an invisible hand is swiftly erasing the original scene to paint a brand new one.
Among the crowd, someone voiced their confusion: "What's going on In the past, phantom beast talismans were always presented as illusions, like the Heaven-Splitting Sword and Heavenly Soldier Talismans. Why is it different this time"
Wan Hongbo smiled and explained: “There’s no need to be surprised everyone. The reason so many of us gathered at my Bai Shou Feng this time is something we all know in our hearts. So, for this challenge of Bai Shou Feng, I took the courage to change things up a bit, satisfying everyone's curiosity and allowing everyone to clearly see what’s inside the Fantasy Beast Diagram!”
Upon hearing this, the crowd suddenly realized.
Those who came here were all to watch Jiang Yun's performance. According to past practice, those outside the Fantasy Beast Map could only see the rankings and couldn't see what was happening inside at all.
But now, Wan Hongbo has actually brought the scene from the Phantom Beast Chart to life, which is naturally convenient for everyone.
It has to be said, Wan Hongbo's move immediately won over the favor of many disciples. Even other peak masters and elders burst into laughter and exclaimed, "Wan Fengzhu is truly thoughtful!"
Only Wei Zhengyang let out a cold snort, thinking to himself, "Brother Wan is truly brilliant! This way, under the watchful eyes of everyone, if Jiang Yun really died inside the Phantom Beast Diagram, no one would suspect him."
Just a moment later, the original Beast Mountain seemed to have vanished without a trace. What appeared before everyone was a brand new flat world, surrounded by forests and deserts, with vast areas of swampland. Countless ferocious beasts could be clearly seen moving within it.
"Now, this Beast Summit has been replaced by the Phantom Beast Diagram. Remember, within three hours, whoever breaks out of the Phantom Beast Diagram is a success!"
Furthermore, the disciples of Chuangfeng must also be careful. The phantom beast diagram contains dangers that could lead to demise, so don't be reckless. If you encounter danger that you cannot withstand, crush the jade pendant! Alright everyone, you may enter now.
As Wan Hongbo's words fell, his sleeves rolled up, and countless jade pendants appeared before each of the disciples who had ascended the peak. After grasping the jade pendants, everyone immediately stepped onto the Illusory Beast Chart without hesitation.
Although the world before your eyes appears incredibly real, in actuality, it's still a painting, another space. So when someone steps into it, an instant burst of light erupts, like a teleportation array, enveloping that person and randomly sending them to some location within the Illusory Beast Painting.
Moments later, all the disciples of Zhānfēng, including Jiāng Yún, were already inside the Huàn Shòu Tù.
At this moment, Jiang Yun stood in the middle of a desert. Looking around, all he saw was golden sand as far as the eye could see. When the wind blew, it would swirl the sand into a cloud, making it impossible to see the end of it.
From the three men from Dongfang Bo, Jiang Yun learned about the rules for entering Bai Shou Peak.
Within the bestiary, you will encounter countless ferocious beasts, even demonic beasts. Although they will attack you, you absolutely must not slay them, but instead tame them.
Once the beast is slain, you will be immediately sent out of the Illusory Beast Diagram and considered a failure.
This is also why the Illusory Beast Diagram allows for disciples' deaths. After all, when facing ferocious beasts that cannot be killed but only tamed, it naturally restrains disciples' actions.
Although crushing the jade pendant can allow you to leave, it still takes some time, and during this short period, you are very likely to be killed by a ferocious beast.
As for the exit of the fantasy beast map, it is similar to a teleportation formation, dispersed into several parts, each hidden within the body of some ferocious beasts. However, which specific beasts they are remains unknown.
Therefore, you only have as much chance of assembling a teleportation array and leaving the Fantasy Beast Diagram by taming as many ferocious beasts as possible.
Jiang Yun turned his head and looked around, pondering for a moment before saying, "I'm unfamiliar with the terrain here. But since all we need to do is tame as many ferocious beasts as possible, it's not difficult!"
As soon as the words left his lips, Jiang Yun reached out and drew a slash across his own arm. Blood flowed continuously down onto the yellow sand below.
This scene shocked the onlookers, but they were also quite excited.
They were all looking forward to seeing Ginger Cloud's performance, and Ginger Cloud did not disappoint them.
"This Ginger Cloud is truly extraordinary. Everyone else tries their best to carefully seek out the ferocious beasts, but he does the opposite, daringly bleeding himself to attract them."
"That's what we call 'having great skill and courage!'
"
Hearing the discussions among his many disciples, a barely perceptible smirk flickered across Wan Hongbo's eyes. He thought to himself, "This is your own doing, you can't blame me!"
When Jiang Yun's fresh blood fell into the yellow sand, a rustling sound suddenly came from all around, and it grew louder and louder.
At a glance, the desert within a hundred paces seemed to have transformed into an ocean, boiling with fury!
