Chapter 885: Chapter 890: The Final Test 5
Once the time was up, several people were automatically transmitted out of the points exchange cabin.
Upon seeing Bai Que and the others, Su Tang couldn’t help but be surprised once again.
This was because the injuries on the three of them were all healed, clearly they had taken Body Strengthening Pills.
But one has to know, exchanging the Advanced Cultivation Technique, Lower Volume alone costs one thousand five hundred points, and they had given her a hundred points, which added up to one thousand six hundred points.
A single Body Strengthening Pill costs five hundred points, and three pills cost another one thousand five hundred points.
In the last round of the test, Bai Que and his team must have poked the hornet’s nest of Godzilla to have gotten so many points, hadn’t they?
Bai Que also noticed Su Tang’s surprised look, patted the dirt-covered corner of his clothes, and raised his head with an arrogant expression.
"What, only you are allowed to have points to exchange for Body Strengthening Pills?"
Su Tang found it a bit amusing and raised her eyebrows. She hadn’t said anything just now, had she?
Not wishing to bother with Bai Que, she turned to survey her surroundings instead.
They were shrouded in a thick white fog, and aside from the silhouettes of a few people nearby, nothing else was visible.
"Welcome to the final challenge, remaining competitors: 6. First, congratulations to all the competitors for making it this far; you are only one step away from victory.
I will now explain the rules for this challenge: the first competitor to find the correct key to the Wood Immortal Mansion and return it to its place will gain the heritage of the Wood Immortal Mansion.
Next, please be aware: the time limit for this challenge is 3 days, and each person is allowed two attempts to try keys. Once all attempts are exhausted, you will be automatically transmitted out after the countdown of the challenge ends. Make your choices carefully!! Should the countdown end with no one having found the correct key, the Wood Immortal Mansion will automatically close and will not reopen until ten major seasons have passed.
Finally, Sang Duo would like to remind everyone once again that damaging or stealing any items from within the Wood Immortal Mansion is strictly forbidden, and violators will lose their eligibility for the candidacy of heir to the Wood Immortal Mansion. This challenge harbors no danger; its purpose is to eliminate the unlucky ones who lack the necessary strength and fortune. I wish all competitors good luck!"
As Sang Duo was narrating the rules, the white fog that had enshrouded them slowly dispersed, and the true face of the Wood Immortal Mansion was finally revealed.
It was an ancient-style estate that seemed somewhat dilapidated, with mottled shadows on the vermillion gate. The base of the door knockers, with Golden Pi Xiu figures, complemented the gate exquisitely. One could tell from the fine carvings the past grandeur of the place, but now, the door ring in the mouth of the Pi Xiu on the right side of the gate was missing.
A lock hung on the knocker of the other side, which presumably needed the correct key to be opened. However, looking at the rusted traces on the surface of the lock, Su Tang couldn’t help but wonder, even if they found the right key, would it open?
Su Tang sighed and shifted her gaze elsewhere.
The green-brick wall connected to the gate had many large holes, overgrown with Weeds, with the scene inside indistinct and desolate.
The wall stretched a great distance, and although the end was visible, it was far too remote for Su Tang.
It suddenly dawned on Su Tang that there was a problem; she quickly turned her head to look at Gaiyin, "Did the rules mentioned just now specify the range within which to search for the key?"
Gaiyin shook his head, "No."
Su Tang smiled wryly, "No wonder they said it would eliminate the ones with bad luck."
The lock on the ring was only as big as Su Tang’s palm, so the key certainly wouldn’t be much bigger.
