Chapter 37

"Boom, boom, boom."

As the sun completely set in the sky, three solemn bells rang out from Wuquan Mountain.

When the bell sound faded away, the golden barrier surrounding Wuquan Mountain slowly disappeared.

Instead, there was a thick fog that covered the mountains and was so thick that one could not see one's hand in front of one's face.

At the same time, the watches of all candidates in the mock exam began to vibrate.

A new test information came from above.

[The second phase of the mock exam begins]

[Exam content: Try to hold on to the end and get points.]

[The exam will end after three days and the ranking will be based on the points.]

[Note 1: After entering Wuquan Mountain, you will be randomly teleported to a different location]

[Note 2: The location information of the top ten students will be sent every half hour]

Seeing the information on the watch, Su Chen put the phone in his pocket and turned to look at Lu Xiaoye.

"Little Leaf, we should go now."

Lu Xiaoye nodded, then patted the head of the giant snow leopard beside her and said, "Go back Dubai. Remember not to yell again next time."

"After all, not everyone is as kind-hearted as me and doesn't like killing."

Hearing this, the giant-toothed snow leopard gave Lu Xiaoye a complicated look, then ran into the forest without looking back and disappeared.

Lu Xiaoye waved at its back and then said to Su Chen beside her, "Okay, Xiao Chen, let's go."

The two of them walked into the fog-shrouded Wuquan Mountain, one in front and one behind.

As soon as he stepped into the fog, Su Chen once again felt the feeling of being teleported into the secret realm for the first time.

"Wuquan Mountain... turns out to be a multi-secret place."

After an unknown amount of time, Su Chen finally walked out of the thick fog.

Lu Xiaoye, who had been following him, had disappeared.

Su Chen was not surprised by this and looked up at the living person.

What caught his eye was a familiar yet unfamiliar blue-gray forest.

The reason why it was familiar was because Su Chen always felt like he had seen this scene somewhere.

The reason why he said it was unfamiliar was because Su Chen was very sure that this was his first time in Wuquan Mountain.

Different from the vibrant, primeval forest-like outskirts of Wuquan Mountain.

The Wuquan Mountain forest before my eyes was dead silent, with an indescribable sense of depression.

Blue-gray, steel-like trees...

Su Chen's pupils shrank, and then he quickly took out his cell phone.

He controlled the game character and came to the Qingxuan Forest at the outer gate of Taichu Divine Sect and enlarged the game screen.

After a moment, Su Chen looked up at the blue-gray trees of Wuquan Mountain in front of him in disbelief.

The whole body is dark green, and the tree is like fine iron.

That's right, what appeared in front of him right now... was indeed the Qingxuan Wood Tree in the game!

"The world in the game appeared in reality..."

At this moment, Su Chen felt his mind was spinning.

Many ideas that had never occurred to him before also popped up in his mind at this moment.

A long time ago, Su Chen had two guesses about the world in the game.

The first guess is that the world in the game is the same as the Kyushu Immortal Alliance, but the two do not exist in the same era.

The Taichu Divine Sect existed in an era that was a little older than the Kyushu Immortal Alliance.

But Su Chen searched through all the information he could find in the Kyushu Immortal Alliance but still couldn't find any information about the Taichu Divine Sect at all.

This either means that the era in the game is so long ago that even the Kyushu Immortal Alliance has no records of it.

Or it simply does not exist in the world of the Kyushu Immortal Alliance.

His second guess was that the world in the game was just like many secret realms that suddenly appeared in the land of Kyushu. It was an independent world outside of the Kyushu Immortal Alliance.

This idea was also what Su Chen originally thought was the most likely guess.

But the sudden appearance of Qingxuan Wood Tree made him more convinced of the first guess.

But can one person cross two times and space?

Su Chen thought for a long time and finally shook his head, thinking that his first idea was too absurd.

"After all, the information He obtained is too little to be used as evidence."

"Besides, I can't be sure that the Qingxuan Wood trees in front of me are the ones planted in the outer sect of Taichu Divine Sect."

"It cannot be used as evidence that the Taichu Divine Sect has never appeared in this world."

"Unless I can find traces of Taichu Divine Sect outside the secret realm or find information about Taichu Divine Sect in the history of the Kyushu Immortal Alliance."

"Otherwise, the secret realm is a chaotic product of the intersection of time and space. It makes sense whether it represents the ancient times or another time and space."

"Forget it. I don't need to care so much now."

"Whether the world in the game is from ancient times or another time and space, it doesn't matter to me now."

"I'd better just take care of myself. As for other things... I'll explore them slowly when I have the ability in the future."

Thinking of this, Su Chen's originally chaotic thoughts finally calmed down.

Then he looked at the Qingxuan wood tree in front of him, and his eyes gradually brightened.

After all, he had not forgotten the Qingxuan puppets he encountered in the ancient cultivator's tomb, nor had he forgotten the 'Qingxuan puppet technique' he had obtained from them.

Originally, Qingxuan wood was needed as the material to create the Qingxuan puppet, and Su Chen could not find any information about the Qingxuan wood tree or channels to obtain it in the Kyushu Immortal Alliance.

As a result, he didn't take this puppet technique seriously.

After all, with his current attainments and talents in puppetry.

However, he has not yet reached the level where he can draw inferences from one example and create a puppet without using Qingxuan Wood.

But now that we have the real Qingxuan Wood Tree, things are different.

With them, his Qingxuan puppet technique would be put to good use.

Thinking of this, Su Chen immediately took out his magic sword from the storage bag and walked towards the nearest Qingxuan Wood tree.

As for mock exams and how to get points.

Su Chen had completely forgotten about it.

After all, the exam... is not as important as chopping trees!

Outside the secret realm, looking at Su Chen, who was about to chop trees, Chen Fugui asked in confusion, "What is student Su going to do, chop trees?"

"In the first stage, he played with his phone, and in the second stage, he wasted his spiritual energy chopping trees. What's wrong with this kid? He keeps doing things that have nothing to do with the exam. Doesn't he worry about failing the exam and affecting his credits?"

Hearing this, Li Youquan couldn't help but say, "Let's not talk about whether it's worth credits or not. The hardness of these thousand-year-old Qingxuan Wood trees is comparable to that of a physical cultivator at the peak of the Qi gathering stage."

"Even if Student Su wanted to chop down a tree, he might not be able to chop down a tree in three days, right?"

"Besides, even if he wanted the Qingxuan Wood Tree, why didn't he just exchange it in the academy's treasure pavilion?"

Chen Fugui looked at Li Youquan as if he were a fool and said quietly, "We have only just mastered the second secret realm of Wuquan Mountain. These Qingxuan trees are the first batch discovered by the Immortal Alliance. There are no such things in the treasure pavilion. Where can you ask him to exchange them?"

"Forehead..."

Li Youquan's mouth twitched, and he knew that he had said something stupid.

But this made him even less able to understand Su Chen's thoughts.

Even they haven't figured out the specific uses of the Qingxuan Wood trees yet. Why is Su Chen, a student, so concerned about them that he even doesn't want to care about the exams and only wants to cut down the trees?

Could it be that he knows how to use these Qingxuan wood trees?

Strange; this student's behavior is too strange.
