When he first entered the Path of Life and Death, Wutian didn't think much of those fragile human puppets. He thought that they couldn't cause any real harm to Han Tian and the other two.
But it was hard to imagine that the human puppets were getting stronger and stronger, to the point that there were human puppets with intelligence.
This could no longer be measured with common sense.
He really regretted it. If he had known this would happen, he would have sent the three of them to the Star Realm.
But it was too late to say anything now.
Seeing Wutian's expression change, the purple-clothed middle-aged man's playfulness became stronger. He said indifferently, "Are you done asking? If you are, let's talk business. "
"Business?"
Wutian was taken aback for a moment before nodding his head.
"There are two things here. Tell me, which one do you want to choose?"
The middle-aged man didn't seem to do anything, but four palm-sized jade plates appeared in the void in front of him. One of the jade plates had a space bracelet, while the other was empty.
Wutian's gaze moved between the two jade plates, his eyes full of confusion.
The middle-aged man soon became impatient and urged, "Choose quickly."
Wutian: "Can I ask first, what are the consequences of choosing these two things?"
The middle-aged man said, "I'll tell you the consequences later."
Wutian raised his eyebrows. This feeling of his fate being controlled was really unpleasant, but he had no other choice now.
He glanced at the two jade plates and finally gritted his teeth and said, "I choose the empty jade plate."
After making his choice, he carefully paid attention to the middle-aged man's expression.
But in the end, he was disappointed. The middle-aged man's face was still playful as usual. He couldn't see anything at all.
"Come, let's continue with the second round."
As the middle-aged man spoke, he waved his hand gently. The space bracelet on the jade plate disappeared and was replaced by a crystal the size of a baby's fist. It was fiery red, blooming with dazzling brilliance and scorching heat.
Wutian's pupils shrank. He was too familiar with this thing. It was the fire essence!
But wasn't the fire essence refined by the fire elemental essence spirit? Why was it here?
He looked at the other jade plate. This time, it was also empty.
After scanning for a while, Wutian pointed at the Empty Jade Plate and said, "I'll choose this one."
This time, a wisp of surprise flashed through the middle aged man's eyes, and he said, "Alright, let's begin the third round."
"There are more?"
Wutian raised his eyebrows.
"This is the last round."
The middle-aged man waved his hand and the Flame Essence disappeared. No other item appeared, but it condensed into a single word!
This word was none other than life!
Then, he looked at the other empty jade plate. This time, it wasn't empty. There was a murderous word on it!
This word was none other than death!
Seeing this, Wutian fell silent.
He vaguely guessed that these two words might be the key to walking out of the Path of Life and Death, but he did not know what the middle-aged man was planning.
Life and death, how should he choose?
If it were a normal situation, he would definitely choose to live. Even if it were someone else, they would make the same choice without hesitation. However, he always felt that it would not be so simple.
"Three!"
"Two!"
"One!"
Just as the middle-aged man counted to one, Wutian clenched his teeth and pointed at the word 'death' with his finger, "I choose this!"
"Why?"
This time, it was the middle-aged man's turn to be astonished. His eyes were full of confusion.
Wutian shook his head, "I don't know why I chose it either. But my instinct tells me that I can leave this place alive."
"Instinct?"
The middle-aged man didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Ling Xian actually gave up his own fate to his instinct. This was the first time he met someone so daring.
Shaking his head, a smile appeared on his face. "Congratulations, you've escaped this calamity by relying on your intuition."
"I made the right choice?"
Wutian was a little dazed. He wasn't lying. Earlier, he really did choose the word 'death' based on his instinct. However, instinct was something intangible and unreliable. It was a complete gamble.
But he didn't think that he would make the right choice.
The middle-aged man saw that Ling Xian was in a daze and said to himself, "Do you know why I chose these three multiple-choice questions?"
"If I knew, would I need to be so conflicted?"
Wutian muttered unhappily. He cupped his hands, "Senior, please enlighten me."
"These three questions are mainly to test your character and courage."
The middle-aged man said that if Wutian had chosen the Space Bracelet in the first round, it would prove that he was a very greedy person. In that case, there wouldn't be a second or third round and he would be killed directly.
Luckily, Wutian had chosen the Space Jade Plate and escaped this disaster.
In the second round, if Wutian had chosen the Fire Essence, it would be enough to prove that he was a person who couldn't resist temptation. He would also be killed.
In the third round, if Wutian had chosen the Life Bracelet, it would mean that he was a person who was afraid of death and he would still be killed.
"I see."
Wutian was enlightened. He didn't expect that these three seemingly simple games were full of hidden dangers.
"I'm curious. Did you choose the first and second round based on your instinct as well?"
The middle-aged man was puzzled.
The second round was the Fire Essence, the most precious treasure in the world. Countless people had chosen it. Why did he choose the Space Jade Plate?
Wutian nodded and admitted that he relied on his instinct.
But in fact, it wasn't at all.
To be honest, he wasn't tempted by the Space Bracelet in the first round because the resources he chose were inexhaustible. Why would he need the Space Bracelet?
Moreover, those who came to participate in the Holy War had a lot of resources themselves. Why would they care about a Space Bracelet? The middle-aged man was obviously drawing legs on a snake.
So, he chose the Space Jade Plate.
The second round was even simpler.
There was only one Fire Essence in the world and this one had been refined by the Fire Element Primordial Spirit. So, after thinking for a while, he concluded that the Fire Essence in the second round was fake.
There must be a reason for this abnormality.
After thinking about it, he finally chose the Space Jade Plate.
However, he couldn't tell the middle-aged man about this. After all, it was hard to know what a person was thinking. If he told the middle-aged man everything, who could guarantee that the middle-aged man wouldn't have other thoughts?
So, it was better to be low-key and stupid.
Sometimes, people who were too smart were more likely to fall.
Seeing Wutian nod, the middle-aged man was surprised. He was also in disbelief. He actually chose according to his instinct and all of them were correct. Wasn't this kid's luck too good?
Wutian had seen countless people and soon knew what the middle-aged man was thinking. He smiled and said, "Although it's hard to believe in luck, it's undeniable that it's also a part of strength."
"Yes."
The middle-aged man nodded and agreed with Wutian's words. He said, "Well, since you passed the test, I won't stop you. This is the reward you deserve. Take this reward and hurry to the Holy Battlefield!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a Space Bracelet appeared in front of him.
Then, it disappeared together with the chair.
"He left just like that?"
Wutian was stunned.
Then he looked at the human puppet in front of him with a trace of doubt in his eyes.
He tentatively took a step forward. The human puppet didn't respond.
He carefully took another step forward. There was still no response.
Finally, when he walked to the front of a human puppet, there was still no response.
Now he was relieved. At the same time, he sighed in his heart. He thought that he would have to fight until the end. He didn't expect that a mysterious man would appear in the middle and solve all the dangers of the Path of Life and Death by accident.
After calming down a little, Wutian appeared in front of the Space Bracelet in one step and grabbed it in his hand. He couldn't help but look forward to it.
The mysterious man was very powerful. He didn't know what kind of reward he would leave for him.
He sank his Divine Thought into it and was immediately stunned. His expression was very strange.
"Trash!"
After a long while, he spat out these two words. After sending the Space Bracelet into the Star Realm, he quickly rushed into the depths of the secret passage.
In fact, there were many things in the Space Bracelet. For example, there were more than 10,000 Emperor herbs, several Six-Tribulation Emperor weapons, and billions of Elemental Essences.
If it were someone else, they would definitely be overjoyed because this was no less than a big treasure.
But in Wutian's eyes, it was no different from trash.
To the current him, only godly medicines and godly weapons could attract his attention.
Along the way, he encountered countless human puppets, but none of them attacked him.
However, the tunnel was unimaginably long. Even after spending more than a month and running non-stop, they still hadn't reached the end.
But the little peacock was about to be born.
"This can't go on."
Wutian pondered for a while. Then he activated the Heaven-Defying Domain and used Godspeed to rush. As a result, his speed was twice as fast as before.
Soon, more than a month had passed.
On this day, Little Wu Hao told him that the little peacock would be born in three days.
This undoubtedly made Wutian a little angry.
Because he was still running in the passage. As for the exit, he didn't know when it would appear.
He also thought of using the space-time door to teleport, but it couldn't be used in the passage.
In his heart, he had already cursed the mysterious man's 18 generations of ancestors countless times.
Why did he design such a long passage? Did he have nothing better to do?
Three days passed in a flash. Dark clouds rolled in the sky of the Star Realm. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. A terrifying heavenly aura filled the Star Realm. Little Wu Hao, who was standing on the peak of the divine tree, was already anxious. She roared, "Little Wutian, how much longer do you need?"
"I already see a stone door. It should be the door to the Sacred Battlefield."
From the beginning until now, he had passed through a total of nine stone doors. And the mysterious man said that there were a total of ten stages on the Path of Life and Death. So, he had already passed nine stages and was now in the passage of the tenth stage.
But he was still a little uncertain.
Wutian said, "Think of a way to delay the birth of the little peacock."
"How can I delay it? Right, let all the wild beasts absorb the little peacock's energy. It should be able to delay it a little. "
Thinking of this, Little Wu Hao immediately summoned the Fire Kirin and the other wild beasts. She summarized the severity of the little peacock's tribulation in the Star Realm in one sentence.
Hearing this, the wild beasts were shocked. They quickly surrounded the peacock egg and absorbed the energy inside.
