Chapter 202 Trial 6
"Junior Sister Wei, what are you doing?"

"Let the arrow fly for a while." Wei Xi said in a flat tone, and pressed the map with a little force.

After hearing this, Wang Xin stopped asking questions: Although Wei Xi is not very prominent in the sect, her performance at this stage of the sect competition has proved her intelligence to those who are interested.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, an arrow flew back.

Wei Xi grabbed it and found that the arrow feather was exactly the tail hair contributed by Lingyin.

"This..." Qin Feng, who was skilled in archery, was surprised. "How come this arrow... you shot it straight out, how can it come back?"

Wei Xi looked at the arrow from beginning to end, and with a serious expression, he retrieved it. "Sure enough, there's something wrong with the trial field."

From the moment Wei Xi grabbed the arrow, Wang Xin became alert, making a hand gesture with his right hand, as if he was ready to fight to the death.

"We're safe for now," Wei Xi said to calm the two of them down, "Don't worry!"

"My two junior sisters, this place is extremely strange. The elders of Zhenhai Sect have also hinted that the trial is extremely dangerous. If anything happens, you two must not get separated!"

Wang Xin tried to persuade him earnestly, but Wei Xi's eyelids twitched slightly. "Who told you that he was an elder of the Zhenhai Sect?"

One shock after another, the surprise on Wang Xin and Qin Feng's faces could no longer be concealed.

"The people from Zhenhai Sect were vague about the details. Even Zheng Duo, a disciple trained by the elders in charge, only told me the things I needed to pay attention to. This shows that Zhenhai Sect has a very low level of control over this trial field."

Wei Xi re-stringed the crossbow while explaining, "Zhenhai Sect has a lot of dignity. After such a scandal, why would they shout about it to the disciples of all the other sects?"

"I'm afraid the one who receives us is not an elder of the Zhenhai Sect."

Wei Xi paused deliberately, considerately giving the two of them time to gasp for breath.

"Since Zhenhai Sect sent a paper crane to bring us here, why did they arrange for an elder to receive us here?" Wei Xi grinned when he thought that Zhenhai Sect was so short of manpower that he had to help with the reception.

"I'm afraid the real focus of the trial grounds lies with the paper crane that led the way. Once we entered the outer perimeter of the trial grounds, the paper crane was intercepted by that thing."

There was some regret in Wei Xi's voice. She had just figured this out. Otherwise, she would have found a way to get the paper crane.

"Then the whole team has been deceived?" After listening to Wei Xi's explanation, Qin Feng's handsome eyebrows were wrinkled, but he still looked very handsome.

The older Wang Xin, however, was thinking further. A worried look crossed his face. "So, are we in trouble for the Trial Field? I'm afraid the road ahead is extremely dangerous!"

Wei Xi knew that Wang Xin was worried that something might happen to several people in the trial field, and she also thought that this worry was not unreasonable.

After all, it is important for people to know themselves, and Wei Xi has his own understanding of luck.

After pondering for a moment, Wei Xi expressed his judgment, "We have the information provided by Zheng Duo, so we shouldn't be in danger easily."

"Just now, as a test, I released an arrow. I thought it would draw out the beast, but it just returned the same way. It seems the forest's mysteries, while thorny, won't reveal themselves immediately."

Wei Xi then pointed to the simple map he had drawn. "One hundred steps is a short horizontal line, and the stride is stable. According to this map, our position is the same as it was two quarters of an hour ago."

This time the cold air really swept over Wang Xin: According to Wei Xi's map, a completely different scene replaced the previous scene.

"...The Trial Field was created by cultivators after all. In the thousands of years of cultivating immortals, I have never heard of anyone being able to conquer the power of space."

Wang Xin's expression relaxed slightly. "I think, as Junior Sister Wei said, there's no risk here for now." "However," Wang Xin's gaze pierced the dark forest, "this fog is truly formidable. Remember what that fake elder said? I'm afraid that once the fog spreads over us, it will be our demise."

Wei Xi nodded, then rolled out a fireball and tried to test the height of the mist.

The originally bright fireball sank into the fog and soon disappeared.

Seeing this, Wang Xin made a gesture and a light blue mist spread out. Soon it entangled with the surrounding fog, marking out the fog with no visible edge.

Wei Xi felt somewhat relieved: if Senior Sister Wang Huan were here, burning it would probably be in vain.

Just a bit of luck in staffing can't eliminate the imminent crisis.

To be safe, the three of them stayed where they were. Wei Xi told them Zheng Duo's information, and deliberately slowed down his speech for fear of making any mistakes.

Although these three pieces of information were not detailed, they were very indicative. If they had not been informed in advance, it would have been hard to guarantee that the moon would not have caused any harm to the group.

Fortunately, these three messages convey not only precautions, but more importantly, a signal.

That means someone was able to bring out the news alive.

This is also the reason why Wei Xi chose to enter the trial after careful consideration.

Apart from the fact that giving up at this time was too conspicuous and Qin Feng was a stubborn donkey, he also had the idea of using the dangerous trial to force out the red line in his body.

"While this information is useful, it's mostly for saving our lives," Wei Xi proposed the next course of action. "If we want to successfully leave the trial field, we still need to find a way out."

"Let's solve the current problem first." Looking at the approaching light blue mist, Wei Xi took back the map he had drawn. "If we wait any longer, the moonlight and the mist will both attack, and I'm afraid there will be more unexpected events!"

The three tried to walk in one direction, but as expected, they ended up back where they started.

Wei Xi didn't show it on his face, but his heart was in a mess, with only one thought running through his mind: How can he get out of this?
Qin Feng, who was walking in front, threw the loose bag behind him.

Such an ordinary action gave Wei Xi an epiphany. It turned out that the problem was with the baggage!

Wei Xi immediately unpacked the bundle he was carrying. The things were still lying there, untouched.

Pursing his lips, Wei Xi reached out and took a bottle of medicine, threw it on the ground, and walked out with the remaining items in his pocket.

There was no change, even the fog marked by Wang Xin's spell was still spreading.

Wei Xi was about to throw the second bottle of medicine when Qin Feng stopped him. "You don't have to try. If something unexpected happens, you won't be able to handle it!"

After saying that, Qin Feng opened his bag and started throwing things out. He took a few steps after throwing one, showing a tenacity that would not give up until he achieved his goal.

Wang Xin held down Wei Xi, who was about to lend a helping hand. "Junior Sister Qin is right. She is the strongest cultivator among the three. If anything strange happens, she will be able to handle it easily."

The medicine bottle, the tinder, the wrapped mask, and the key were thrown away one after another, but Qin Feng still did not take the right path.

Suddenly, Wei Xi slapped his forehead and shouted at Qin Feng, "It's the bundle itself! Drop that piece of cloth!"
