The Story of the Swordsman Cang'An

Episode 07's. Tests in the Illusory Realm bg. 4

Duan Qishi was completely confused, although all of their opponents seemed to have been completely engulfed in flames, but strangely they were still inside the Illusory Realm.

" Qingchen. I think something's wrong.. I feel like we haven't won yet. There must be something behind all this "Said Duan Qishi.

" Qish. Don't worry so much. Perhaps of the five members of Zhao Fengs Group, one of them was still alive. Perhaps your cousin managed to escape the flames of "Tang Qingchen's Sahut, saying that Duan Meimei, Duan Qishi's cousin might have managed to escape the fire trap.

" but.. "

Not long after Duan Qishi said, suddenly a giant net appeared from the sky and caught himself and everyone inside the fortress.

" What is this? "

" The Sky Net!? "

" Who did this? Free us! "

" Who spread this Sky Net? Don't you guys know who I am? "

Now, Tang Qingchen and all of his members along with the 21 Beasts were trapped within an enormous net. The net even nearly covered half the area of the fortress.

The large net was referred to as the Sky Net, which was a Secret Treasure that was able to change size depending on how much inner power was used to activate the net. The more energy used, the greater the net.

*Krieet Tuplak*

*Krieet Tuplak*

One after another the four entrances of the fort suddenly closed from the outside.

*Tyoung*

A poisonous smoke bomb shot in from outside the fortress and fell right over the net that locked the group of Tang Qingchen and the group of Leopard.

*Twoarr*

The smoke bomb exploded and spread a poisonous smog that filled the entire fortress.

" Rghghh... " The screams of members of the group Tang Qingchen and Leopard were rightly hit by the explosion from the toxic smoke bomb.

' Shit... Why are we trapped? What the hell's going on? ' Tang Qingchen thought as she turned her head towards Zhao Fengs corpse.

While closing his nose and holding his breath for as long as he could, Tang Qingchen looked towards Zhao Fengs corpse. He was surprised to find the body turned into a block of wood.

Duan Qishi who was also holding his breath so as not to inhale the poisonous smoke was taken aback. It turned out that the corpse of Zhao Feng who was next to him, had now turned into a block of wood.

' This!?? ' Inner Duan Qishi turned his head towards Tang Qingchen.

Meanwhile all the others were trying to break free from the confinement of the Sky Net.

*zyaat*

*zyaat*

Some tried to tear, some tried to cut the net. But whatever effort they put in, it was all in vain. The Net of Heaven was not torn apart in the slightest, the net was still locking them up.

Of the eight members of Tang Qingchen's group, five of them had been killed by poison from smoke bombs. They were eliminated and expelled from the examination in the Illusory Realm.

While the 20 Beast members that Leopard led now only had half of them left, the explosion and poisonous fumes had killed half of his men.

" Hyaaatt!!! " The raging Leopard watched as his men fell and died from the poisonous fumes, he swung his sharp claws and attempted to tear apart the Sky Net.

*crash*

*crash*

But dozens of breaths later when the poisonous smoke disappeared, nothing happened to the Sky Net.

" Patience Leo. You will only spend your energy in vain. This net is the Xia clan's Secret Treasure, no one has ever been able to tear or destroy this net " Tang Qingchen said as she patted Leopard's shoulder.

Secret Treasures were lucky objects that appeared after the Fallen God Era and until now it was not known how to make such objects. The era of the Fallen Gods was an era where the Gods were in a slump due to the fight that was going on between them. It was the war between the Gods that was named as the Era of the Fallen Gods.

Such lucky objects were considered treasures because of their rarity, after the Fallen God Era there were no more such objects to be found or recreated.

Not a single swordsman and forging expert was able to unravel the secret of the origin of the power of making such lucky objects. Therefore, the lucky objects are named as Secret Treasures. A rare treasure with a secret that no one has yet been able to solve.

To Tang Qingchen's knowledge, this Sky Net was a Secret Treasure belonging to the Xia Clan.

" So this net belongs to Xia Xiong? " Task Ma Duchen after noticing the rest of his friends who were still inside the Illusory Realm. Now only four people including himself are still undergoing tests in the Illusory Realm.

" I think so. The smoke bomb was also his "Sahut Tang Qingchen while unsheathing his sword.

*Triuage*

Tang Qingchen poured a deep energy into his sword.

" Get ready! They're gonna attack again, look! " Pointing Tang Qingchen towards the north of the small fortress.

Leopard and all the others turned towards the north of the fortress. They clearly saw a thick-bodied young man standing on top of the fortress.

Xia Xiong stood right above the fortress on the north side of the fort. In his hand was another smoke bomb that was ready to be placed towards Tang Qingchen and the others.

" Haha... Qingchens. It is not useless for you to be appointed as the head of the group. You can quickly realize my whereabouts " Said Xia Xiong who realized his whereabouts had been known by Tang Qingchen.

" B*bi fat! Release us! " Kang Taego shouted when he saw Xia Xiong standing on top of the fortress.

" B*bi!?? Damn it... Who do you call b*bi? Taego. It is you who are b*bi, fools, not knowing that you are the one who is trapped by your own plan... Hahaha "Sahut Xia Xiong's. He most disliked being called b*bi, it seemed to drop his pride as a Young Master from one of the Five Families.

*zyuut*

Duan Meimei appeared right next to Xia Xiong. A bow and a bag of arrows were in his hand.

" Xiong's. Quickly do. We just need to get rid of the four of them in order to pass this test " Duan Meimei said firmly.

" Oh yeah. Fine. " Xia Xiong stopped laughing and lit the smoke bomb wick that was in his hand.

*Tyoung*

The poisonous smoke bomb Xia Xiong threw towards the Sky Net.

' See who b*bi is... Haha... Die you ' Inner Xia Xiong.

*krektek*

Duan Meimei prepared to attack Tang Qingchen with an arrow that was now mounted on the bow he was carrying.

The bow and arrow belonged to Adelfo. Adelfo is now treating his wife's wounds with Ziya outside the fortress under a large tree.

" You help those two friends. The sooner you kill them the sooner this illusion will end "Adelfo said as he gave his wife medicine.

" right. You go. Complete your test "Imbuh Ziya to Zhao Feng and his two other friends.

" good. Then we will continue with the previous plan. Thank you Adelfo. This is all thanks to your brilliant idea of "Saw Zhao Feng.

Earlier when they split up in search of a hidden exit, an idea came to Adelfo's mind. After secretly releasing his wife, Adelfo informed Zhao Feng and all the members of his group.

Adelfo's plan was to make Tang Qingchen's group and Leopard's group realize that they had infiltrated, after all with Ziya's magic, they would disguise Zhao Feng's death.

Ziya turned a log into a resemblance to Zhao Feng with his magic. Then they would sneak out of the fort before Leopard and his men burned the inside.

" This is all also thanks to your own efforts, if not for this young man's false shout, they probably wouldn't have gotten into the trap of "Reply Adelfo while pointing towards Xing Ma.

" It's nothing, it's just a vote token. Then we excuse "Sahut Xing Ma before rushing towards the direction of the fortress together with Zhao Feng and Wei Tanlun. Adelfo nodded slowly at the departure of the three young men.

Token Suara is a useful wood for one-way communication. With the token, Xing Ma recorded his shout and threw the voice recording into the flames inside the fortress. Thanks to that shout, the group of Leopard and Tang Qingchen's group felt confident of having defeated the Group of Five.

Back to the fort. The smoke bomb Xia Xiong threw failed to explode. Tang Qingchen cut off the explosive wick from the bomb just before it exploded. That was Tang Qingchen's goal from the start to flow deep energy into her sword.

*Tyoung*

Duan Meimei's arrow shot forward lunging towards Tang Qingchen.

" Throw another one. Hurry along! " Our Duan Meimei exclaimed to Xia Xiong.

Seeing that the second smoke bomb Xia Xiong threw failed to explode, Duan Meimei ordered Xia Xiong to throw another smoke bomb.

Duan Meimei's arrow shook slowly as it shot and suddenly turned a direction. The arrow was now charging towards Ma Duchen.

' Uarghghh.. Damnit...It turned out that from the start he was planning to kill me Inner Ma Duchen just after Duan Meimei's arrow hit his left chest. Ma Duchen was killed and eliminated from the test.

" Qingchen. My cousin is very good at archery, it would be difficult to guess the direction of his arrow shot. What are we supposed to do? " Task Duan Qishi after seeing Ma Duchen disappear from the sight of his eyes.

Seriate...
