Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1132 - 549: Another Fate Warning—An Almost Certain Deathtrap

Boom~~

Soon enough, once Jiang Fan had steadied his cultivation, he displayed his Talisman Dao prowess by expertly crafting a Tier Six Talisman.

Abruptly, a voice echoed: "Congratulations on passing the Talisman trial, you will receive a gift from Cangwu Immortal Mansion."

"Would you like to continue the assessment?"

"If you refuse, you will be transported out of Cangwu Immortal Mansion."

Thunk~~

In the blink of an eye, Cangwu Immortal Mansion's gift materialized right in front of Jiang Fan.

Ten Undying Puppets of the Void Refinement Realm.

They remained standing in a stupor, gazing blankly toward Jiang Fan.

"Are those Undying Puppets?"

Witnessing this sight, Jiang Fan felt instant elation surge through him.

Truthfully, he'd coveted the Undying Puppets from Cangwu Immortal Mansion for quite some time.

Don't mistake his effortless handling of them.

He simply possessed the techniques to counter these Undying Puppets perfectly.

Any other Void Refining Cultivators confronting them would most likely find themselves powerless.

On top of that, as the Void Realm's Spiritual Qi keeps surging back to life, countless Void Refining Cultivators are emerging.

Having the Primordial Talisman Sect depend entirely on him alone falls far short.

Yet, bolstered by these Void Refining-level Undying Puppets, the situation transforms entirely.

Suddenly, it's like the Primordial Talisman Sect boasts ten additional Void Refining combatants.

What's more, they hold the Undying Body.

Provided their inner cores stay intact, regeneration happens on its own.

Nothing surpasses them as sentinels.

Jiang Fan had figured he'd never lay hands on these Undying Puppets, yet here they were, handed over as his prize.

Whoosh!

At that notion, Jiang Fan swept his hand, swiftly storing away all the Undying Puppets.

Taming them proves rather straightforward—merely refine their puppet cores.

Comparable to refining a Magical Treasure.

After refinement, no one else can claim them.

"I am willing to continue the assessment."

Jiang Fan declared without delay.

Three trials conquered, three rewards claimed from Cangwu Immortal Mansion.

Every single one brought him tremendous gains.

Leaving now felt unacceptable; he craved every last advantage possible.

"Very well, next you need to participate in the survival trial."

"You will enter a battlefield and fight against other challengers."

"Only the last surviving challenger will be deemed to have passed the assessment."

"If you fail the assessment, then you will be obliterated."

This voice brimmed with a malevolent presence, overflowing with boundless ill will and slaughterous intent.

The enemy's viciousness stood utterly bare.

Boom~~

Precisely then, a transmission sank into the profound depths of Jiang Fan’s sea of consciousness.

"After three years of waiting, the anomaly has fully completed its arrangements, growing exceedingly restless in its desire to trap and eradicate you utterly."

"Destiny will provide you with hints."

"Destiny Hint One: Upon stepping into the battlefield, hundreds of Otherworld Void Refining Cultivators await you, their souls and forms long since eroded by the anomalous energy, twisted into the anomaly’s puppets—the fruits of its three-year scheme. Yet far more dreadful, slaying these Void Refining Cultivators proves impossible, for each harbors an anomalous curse. Killing them transfers the curse to you; the greater the number felled, the deadlier it grows—this forms the anomaly’s trap to doom you. Should you eliminate these Void Refining Cultivators to clear the trial, the curse will inevitably claim your life; refuse to kill them, fail the trial, and Cangwu Immortal Mansion’s protocols will annihilate you. Thankfully, a glimmer of hope persists: over these three years, Cangwu Immortal Mansion’s Mansion Spirit has steadily rebuilt its power, covertly seizing many of the mansion’s authorities, all while plotting a decisive strike against the anomaly. Thus, your task is to create the opening for the Mansion Spirit’s lethal assault, with this survival trial offering prime opportunity to inflict grave harm on the anomaly."

"Destiny Hint Two: Even so, the Mansion Spirit remains oblivious that the anomaly’s might runs far deeper than imagined. Convinced of its readiness to slay the invading anomaly, in truth, the anomaly detected these covert maneuvers ages ago, feigning ignorance while laying perfect countermeasures; consequently, the Mansion Spirit’s strike won’t destroy the anomaly but invite a devastating counterattack, stripping away all dominion over Cangwu Immortal Mansion."

"Destiny Hint Three: Like the mantis stalking the cicada while ignoring the oriole behind, the anomaly boasts endless tactics, rendering it exceedingly hard to slay. Yet its clash with the Mansion Spirit lays bare a weakness; launch your assault the very moment the anomaly endures grievous injury, uniting strengths to eliminate it—provided you brandish the Human Emperor Sword and grasp that crucial instant.

Fail to capture this chance, and slaying the anomaly proves impossible, dooming instead the Mansion Spirit—and likely you yourself—to a horrific demise inside Cangwu Immortal Mansion."

Upon sensing this message, Jiang Fan's eyes narrowed.

He understood that battling the anomaly carried immense danger.

However, he hadn't foreseen such dire peril.

Just one erroneous decision, and he'd perish wretchedly under the anomaly's claws.

No surprise then that the Ancient Era's powers in the Void Realm all fell so tragically.

Resulting in the utter collapse of Void Realm forces over that entire epoch.
