If Jiang Wang knew that Hu Shaomeng had not dared to enter the mirror world with his spirit after obtaining the Red Makeup Mirror for so many years, perhaps he would be more cautious today.
However, there were no ifs.
The Red Makeup Mirror was obtained by killing someone, and no one told him about the taboos.
Therefore, he could only face the tribulation!
Jiang Wang trekked alone in the vast snowy plains.
In the cold wind, his brows, eyes, body, and intent became more and more solid and clear.
He had always been decisive. Since his spirit was trapped, he did not hesitate to pour all of his spirit energy into the Red Makeup Mirror world.
Since he had to face the tribulation, he could not be indecisive.
He did not know what the so-called "Flying Snow Tribulation" was, but he knew that he could not pass it with his incomplete spirit energy.
If his spirit was injured now, what was the point of talking about the future? He had no place to call for help, and no one to call for help.
Jiang Wang didn't lack ruthlessness in his bones, especially in the face of danger.
Either his spirit would be destroyed, and his body would disappear. Or … he would face the tribulation and break through it!
The wind and snow were even colder.
In the vast snowy world, the chill was devastating.
Jiang Wang activated the Vermilion Bird Body Tempering Mantra and simulated the effects of the Vermilion Bird Body Tempering Mantra in the snowy plains where his spirit was.
The body formed by his spirit seemed to have a furnace inside. It was hot and warm.
The chill was temporarily dispelled.
The world seemed to have the body formed by his spirit as the boundary. One side was cold, and the other side was warm.
At this moment, Jiang Wang's almost frozen mind regained its liveliness.
He began to think about the way out of this snowy plains.
However, it was vast and boundless. No matter front, back, left, or right, he could not see the end.
There was not even a tree. It was all mountains and snow, and there were no markings.
Looking at the sky, it was clear blue. It was like a huge and flawless water mirror embedded in the sky.
There were no clouds, no sun, and no light came from nowhere.
However, the real problem was — there was no sun, and thus, there was no direction.
Jiang Wang used the Remembrance Grass, but after a long time, it could not take shape.
This was troublesome …
However, he was not discouraged.
Judging from his previous experience, the Flying Snow Tribulation in the Red Makeup Mirror should be a test. The result might be related to the degree of control of the Red Makeup Mirror.
Since it was a test, it definitely wouldn't be a death tribulation. If the Red Makeup Mirror was going to kill anyone who obtained it, then there was no need for it to trigger a "calamity" in such a way.
Perhaps there was no direction, no way out.
Or rather, the "way out" was right there. He didn't need to rely on searching, nor could he find it.
Jiang Wang was enlightened.
He pressed a flame flower on the ground. The snow melted, revealing the hard, dry ground.
Jiang Wang stomped on the floor, making a banging sound.
The Frozen Earth was like a drum, its sound thick and heavy.
He stood there like this, fixed in place, and began to carefully comprehend the mysteries of the Vermilion Bird Body Tempering Mantra.
The Vermilion Bird was in the south and belonged to the fire element.
He specialized in fire and wood, so he had some understanding of fire dao.
Scorching and violent flames could also represent warmth and light, and the use of these was dependent on one's heart.
At this moment, he was using the warmth of the fire to resist the cold of the Flying Snow Tribulation.
After an unknown period of time.
From the blue mirror-like sky, large snowflakes drifted down. There was quite a bit of distance between them, so they weren't too dense.
Jiang Wang reached out to catch a snowflake. He couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air, feeling a bone-piercing chill.
The snowflakes drifting down at this time were much colder than the snow that existed in this snowfield before. It seemed to be able to directly freeze the soul!
Flying Snow Tribulation, Flying Snow Tribulation, the tribulation was flying snow!
"It's best not to be touched by these snowflakes," Jiang Wang thought.
He raised his head, looking straight at the sky. He saw that the blue heavenly mirror seemed to be reflecting something, and watched the snow fall mercilessly.
He was the only one in the world.
He moved.
His right hand was like a sword, and he seemed to be dancing with it.
He flew and turned in the flying snow, but not a single snowflake touched him.
The snow fell faster and faster, thicker and denser.
Jiang Wang spun faster and faster, sprinting faster and faster.
For a moment, the entire snowfield was filled with Jiang Wang's figure dancing with his sword.
And the heavy snow fell.
The heavy snow drifted down, falling densely.
Sword lights flashed left and right, caught in a fierce battle.
The sword moves were like lightning and frost. This person used snow as his enemy!
After an unknown period of time, the snow finally became so dense that there was no space for anyone to dodge.
A flame flower bloomed above his head, melting the snowflakes.
A snowflake melted into a ball of water, pouring down on his head.
Jiang Wang knew that this water could not be touched, so he hurriedly dodged.
He kept making hand seals with both hands, and the ivy snakes drilled out of the ground, intertwining above his head.
With the ivy snakes as a roof, could he avoid the wind and snow?
The answer quickly appeared.
Almost at the same time as the snowflakes drifted down, the ivy snakes dissipated into wood elemental energy.
This Flying Snow Tribulation seemed to be able to restrain Dao techniques. Of course, the defensive Dao techniques Jiang Wang was proficient in were not powerful, or perhaps it was because of this.
Since none of the techniques worked, Jiang Wang simply sat down cross-legged.
The Azure Dragon refined his body, and the Dao of Wood was full of vitality.
The Vermillion Bird refined his body, and the Dao of Fire was the beginning of life.
The White Tiger refined his body, and the Dao of Metal was decisive in killing.
The Black Tortoise refined his body, and the Dao of Water was vast.
The cycle of life and death, and the four spirits converged.
And the Flying Snow Tribulation seemed to be never-ending.
The flow of time, the shifting of space, all of these could only be reflected with reference objects.
In this silent, eternal snowfield, time and space seemed to have lost their meaning.
At first, he could still hear the wind, and feel even the softest snowflake.
Slowly, he could no longer hear or feel anything.
Jiang Wang had become a snowman.
The snow deepened, thickened, and gradually buried him.
He became one with the snowfield, as if he had become one of the snowfield.
Perhaps, the souls lost in the snowfield world in the mirror were themselves a part of the Flying Snow Tribulation. Now, Jiang Wang would also become one of them.
The first to discover the problem was Xiaoxiao.
She came to find Jiang Wang to report town affairs. She could deal with most of them herself, but she needed Jiang Wang to make decisions on matters related to Jia City and the Four Seas Business Alliance.
But Jiang Wang entered his room and did not come out for ten whole days.
It was normal for cultivators to enter seclusion without knowing the time. However, Jiang Wang did not inform her in advance, and the plague in Qingyang Town had not completely passed, so it should not be the time for seclusion.
On the eleventh day, Xiaoxiao could not help but directly push the door open and enter the room — as Jiang Wang's personal maid, she was the only person in Qingyang Town who could enter Jiang Wang's room without his permission without causing misunderstandings.
After all, she had cleaned up Jiang Wang's room for many days.
Seeing Jiang Wang holding a mirror in his hand and sitting stiffly on the bed, she was almost scared out of her wits — if she had not heard his faint heartbeat after probing.
The heartbeat was very weak and slow, but it still existed.
She realized that Jiang Wang might have a problem with his cultivation, but she knew nothing about it and did not know where to start.
After thinking about it, she quietly went to find Zhu Biqiong.
Originally, among the other extraordinary cultivators in Qingyang Town, the two medical cultivators sent by the Junggenjia should be the most useful in this situation.
But Xiaoxiao was not familiar with them and could not trust them. She even lacked trust in the Junggenjia.
Previously, there was an old man in the Junggenjia who went against Jiang Wang and was slapped away by Jiang Wang. She remembered it clearly.
If these two medical cultivators had evil intentions …
Among the remaining three extraordinary cultivators on Jiang Wang's side, although Zhang Hai was almost crazy about alchemy, he still had a rough understanding of medicine. But in Xiaoxiao's view, he only had the unattainable elixir in his heart and lacked loyalty to Jiang Wang. At this critical time, she could not trust him.
As for Xiang Qian, she would not consider him. Not long ago, Xiang Qian had publicly questioned Jiang Wang's lack of efforts for Qingyang Town.
Xiaoxiao was a vigilant person and lacked trust in the world.
The reason why she chose to ask Zhu Biqiong for help was that she was learning martial arts from Zhu Biqiong and was relatively familiar with her and understood her innocent character.
Secondly, she knew that there was not much interest between Zhu Biqiong and Jiang Wang, and Zhu Biqiong was not a person who lacked resources. The possibility of causing danger was relatively low.
After weighing the pros and cons, she thought this was the safest choice.
When Zhu Biqiong saw Jiang Wang's current situation, she was also somewhat at a loss.
She tried to give Jiang Wang Daoyuan and gave him the elixir used by the Sea-fishing Tower to strengthen his foundation, but it was to no avail.
Jiang Wang sat there the whole time, as if he was a clay sculpture.
After all, Zhu Biqiong was a cultivator in the Reaching Heaven Realm. She knew that she could not touch the mirror in Jiang Wang's hand, but other than that, she did not know what to do.
Seeing that she was also at a loss, Xiaoxiao became more and more nervous and could not help but ask, "Should we ask the medical cultivators?"
With Zhu Biqiong guarding by his side, Jiang Wang's safety could be guaranteed.
"This is not a problem that the medical cultivators can solve." Zhu Biqiong shook her head and pointed to the small mirror in Jiang Wang's hand. "He is now trapped in this mirror. I am not familiar with the situation and dare not rashly enter, for fear of making a fool of myself. In the current situation, he can only rely on himself to come out. "
"Then can he come out by himself?" Xiaoxiao was anxious.
But soon, she said, "Yes, Master can definitely come out!"
"Yes," Zhu Biqiong said, "Jiang Wang is the strongest cultivator I have ever seen in the Reaching Heaven Realm."
She did not know how this would help him come out of the mirror, but it was a comfort to her. Whether it was for Xiaoxiao or for herself.
"It is useless to stay here. Let's go out and think of a way."
When it came to the field of extraordinary beings, Zhu Biqiong was the most experienced. Therefore, at this moment, she seemed more mature — Dugu Xiao was already somewhat at a loss.
When they pushed open the door, the two of them were stunned.
Because Xiang Qian was outside the door.
Obviously, Dugu Xiao secretly asked Zhu Biqiong to come and see Jiang Wang, not wanting anyone to know that something was wrong. However, she could not hide it from him.
"What happened to Jiang Wang?" Xiang Qian asked directly.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Xiaoxiao bit her lower lip and did not speak. Zhu Biqiong also secretly prepared an illusion technique.
Seeing their vigilant appearance, Xiang Qian reacted.
He took a step back, showing that he had no hostility. Then, he directly turned around, his back facing the door. Without caring whether it was dirty or not, he sat on the ground.
"Miss Dugu," he said with his back facing Xiaoxiao and Zhu Biqiong, "in this place, you are the person Jiang Wang trusts the most. From today onwards, I will guard this place. Who can enter this room and who cannot? You have the final say. "
Xiang Qian was not a person who was very good at expressing himself. Persuading people to die, persuading people to give up … except when he was disheartened.
When Manager Qian of the Four Seas Business Alliance came to question him, he only said one sentence — he actually felt that explaining was meaningless. He did not feel that Jiang Wang would believe him, or that he would choose to believe him under the pressure of the Four Seas Business Alliance.
The reason why he explained himself was probably because of the child who ate the egg and his smile.
He indeed did not expect that Jiang Wang would take responsibility for this matter without hesitation. He did not even blame him. Even Zhang Hai, who was completely uninvolved, did not hide the fact that he blamed him.
Those two hundred Dao Origin Stones were said to be compensation, but was it not the trust in him?
At that time, Xiang Qian did not even say a word of thanks. Now, he would not express any determination.
The fact that he was sitting here was his determination.
Xiaoxiao stared blankly for a while before saying, "Oh."
