Chapter 583: Chapter 583 Cannot Fail
Each time the system upgrades, the benefits it brings are immense.
Naturally, Jiang Xiaobai was looking forward to it.
However, the system did not respond this time, presumably beginning its upgrade preparations.
Without thinking too much, Jiang Xiaobai shook his head and sneakily drilled up from underground.
He did not disguise himself, after all, no one even knew who he was.
Once again returning to the trial altar, the number of gathered people was multiple times more than before!
It must have been at least a hundred thousand!
Indeed, the massive pyramid-shaped trial altar could accommodate all these people, but the competition amongst them made it far more challenging!
With one more month left in the previously stated three month period, Jiang Xiaobai knew he needed to prepare, starting with finding Gu Ning and the others.
However, before he could go looking for them, Gu Ning and Baihe suddenly appeared before him, taking Jiang Xiaobai by surprise.
“How did you guys find me?”
“Do we really need to put in that much effort to find you?” Gu Ning chuckled lightly, raising an eyebrow at Jiang Xiaobai, then suddenly moved closer and hooked his neck with her hand.
She leaned into Jiang Xiaobai’s ear and whispered.
“Little guy, be honest, did you summon the Purple Celestial Thunderbolt?”
“Admit it, you’ve done something so outrageous that even the heavens can’t tolerate you, haven’t you?”
Jiang Xiaobai scratched his head in confusion: “Master, how do you know all these details so clearly?”
“Nonsense, if I didn’t know these things, how could I be your master?”
Gu Ning confidently said, “Will you tell me?”
“Hehe, all these things are secrets and can’t be told, right?”
Jiang Xiaobai chuckled, and Gu Ning just pursed her lips, tapping him on the head before dropping the subject.
Instead, Baihe began to inquire about Goudan: “Where’s your mongrel, do you have him with you?”
It was only then that Jiang Xiaobai remembered, Goudan had been locked in the Pagoda and still had not been let out!
Immediately, he hurriedly got Goudan out, his mouth twitching as he noticed that Goudan was still asleep.
With such a deep sleep, even being caught in Jiang Xiaobai’s hand didn’t rouse him.
“Just keep him with you, put him back. It’s not good to be seen by others.”
Baihe nodded.
“Do you know what Goudan really is?” Jiang Xiaobai stared at Baihe.
“I have an idea, but it’s not for certain. Just wait and see when this little thing will finally transform.”
Baihe faintly laughed, “Let’s find a place to sit, I’ll tell you about what’s happening in this Dark Abyss trial, so you can prepare mentally.”
“There are seven days left before the trial begins.”
“What? I thought it was only after three months?”
Jiang Xiaobai was startled.
At the side, Gu Ning shook her head and laughed lightly, “The trial will last for three months once it starts. The three months I mentioned was my condition for you.”
“But come to think of it, how did you manage to get past that old creature in the Abyss Forbidden Zone?”
Then Jiang Xiaobai explained how he had entered the Dark Abyss.
For a moment, Gu Ning was in shock.
“That trial was set up by the old geezer himself, and you managed to pass it so easily?”
“Was it difficult?” Jiang Xiaobai was surprised.
Gu Ning was left speechless, looking at Jiang Xiaobai, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn’t.
Afterwards, the three of them found a quiet corner, sat together while drinking and eating, Baihe began explaining about the trial.
As it turns out, the Dark Abyss trial could accommodate up to two hundred thousand people at the same time!
There was no limit to the number of participants, as long as they could pass the trial, they would receive a reward.
The contents of the trial vary for each person. Some people can form teams to take the trials, while others can undertake them alone.
Moreover, it’s not just a simple test of your formation skills, where failure only means a lost opportunity.
If something goes wrong in the Dark Abyss Trial, it could mean death.
“How difficult is it? Judging by both of your expressions, it seems like you’ve participated many times before, how tough is it?”
Jiang Xiaobai asked, his eyebrows furrowed, “Also Master, didn’t you say that I would know everything once I got here? Why do I still not know anything?”
“It’s not yet time for you to know, knowing so much is not to your advantage at present. You should focus on getting through the Dark Abyss Trial.”
Slowly, Gu Ning said, “I’ll tell you this, the Dark Abyss Trial is very, very important for you.”
“You must pass, if you fail…”
Gu Ning didn’t finish her sentence, and Jiang Xiaobai got the general idea, but he didn’t want to listen.
After all, if he failed, he would be erased.
This curiosity aroused Jiang Xiaobai again, “Master, why did you insist on bringing me here?”
“Can I really help you?”
“Yes!”
Gu Ning confirmed, “Let me tell you a secret that no one else knows. If someone in the Unity Period participates in the trial, the difficulty of the trial would be at the level of the Unity Period!”
“What on earth?!”
Jiang Xiaobai stood up in surprise.
The people around him immediately took notice, and Baihe pulled him back to sit down.
“Why are you so surprised? This secret is known by very few, if not no one.”
Baihe said indifferently.
But Jiang Xiaobai was not calm.
He realized he had become a tool for Gu Ning and the others!
He felt a bit upset…
“Forget it, this is not the first time you’ve tricked your disciple.” Jiang Xiaobai muttered, taking a sip of his wine.
He understood why Gu Ning picked him. Gu Ning and Baihe must have noticed something unusual about him.
At present, Jiang Xiaobai, who is in the late stage of Fusion, was not weak at all, mainly due to the unique rules of the Tianxuan Continent.
As for other Unity Period cultivators from the Tianxuan Continent, they would be of no use here.
Although the difficulty of the trial could be reduced to the level of the Unity Period, it was clear that Gu Ning and Baihe were not confident about passing under such difficulty.
With this thought, Jiang Xiaobai got even more curious. Both of them are very powerful, shouldn’t they easily pass the trial with any Unity Period expert?
“I know what you’re thinking, but Little Bai, you’re different from others.”
“In the ten thousand years I’ve been in Tianxuan Continent, I’ve never seen anyone with good fortune like you.”
“Does good fortune help in the trial?” Jiang Xiaobai raised an eyebrow.
“It does help a bit, but it’s minor. Moreover, our situation is… a bit different from what you have imagined.”

“So although the difficulty of this trial seems not high, the two of us can’t be sure of success.”
“Once we fail, all our efforts accumulated over ten thousand years would have been for nothing…”
Gu Ning muttered.
At this moment, there was a kind of unspeakable vicissitude about her.
Jiang Xiaobai was silent, he felt he was in the center of a huge whirlpool, facing a vast misty white fog, unable to see anything clearly.
