Repetitive Experience

Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations

A few days later.

Jiang Chengxuan and his companions had traveled a considerable distance within the Thousand River Secret Realm.

During this time, they had collected many treasures that would be considered exceptional even in the outside world.

They had amassed over eighty pieces of Black Iron Cloud Gold. However, what puzzled them was that over these days, they hadn’t encountered anyone else in the Thousand River Secret Realm, which was unusual.

Typically, encounters with individuals from different sects or families would occur every one to two days.

This lack of encounters was quite rare.

However, Jiang Chengxuan and his group didn’t dwell too much on this anomaly.

That is until they found themselves back at the familiar yellow terrain where they had initially entered, which made their expressions turn grave.

They were back at their starting point, but what troubled them the most was encountering the same enemies again.

First the Stone Giants, then the Dragons.

“What… what’s going on?”

Feng Nianchuan and Yao Anrui looked somewhat troubled, realizing they were seemingly trapped in a loop of repeating experiences.

Both Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan also sensed something was amiss but remained calm.

After they checked their surroundings, Shen Ruyan looked at Jiang Chengxuan and asked,

“Husband, did you discover anything different?”

Jiang Chengxuan shook his head.

“In terms of the environment and the enemies we encounter, there s no difference.

But I have a feeling…”

fter Jiang Chengxuan spoke, he paused momentarily, causing Feng Nianchuan and Yao Anrui to turn their heads towards him.

Jiang Chengxuan’s expression suddenly became very serious, and he said in a solemn tone,

“If my guess is correct, our trial in the Thousand River Secret Realm has already begun.

Or rather, we have entered the domain governed by the rules of a certain Dharmic artifact.

Only by passing the test of this artifact’s rules can we truly leave this place.”

“What?”

Feng Nianchuan and Yao Anrui were both shocked upon hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words.

They had not expected such a conjecture from him.

But upon reflection, what Jiang Chengxuan suggested was indeed a possibility. “Then, may I ask Senior Brother Jiang, what exactly do you think the test we have to undergo is?”

Yao Anrui couldn’t help but ask.

However, Jiang Chengxuan shook his head.

“I can’t be completely sure for the time being.

Next, we need to confirm it again.”

With that, Jiang Chengxuan continued forward.

When the others saw this, they immediately followed.

Just like that, many days later, Jiang Chengxuan and the others returned to the place they came from.

The yellow earth, the stone giants, the dragons…

Looking at the familiar scene, Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Feng Nianchuan, and Yao Anrui all looked very serious.

“It seems like Senior Brother Jiang was right.”

Feng Nianchuan said in a low voice.

“We might indeed be undergoing a test within the rules of a Dharmic artifact. If we cannot pass this artifact’s test, there’s a significant chance we’ll be trapped here forever.”

This is the danger of the Thousand River Secret Realm.

Anyone entering could face fatal dangers, regardless of being minor cultivators or at the peak of Soul Formation like Jiang Chengxuan and his group.

Once inside, one could face all sorts of perilous challenges.

“I wonder what we should do to pass this test?”

Yao Anrui could not help but ask.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan both shook their heads, signaling their uncertainty.

“We can’t be sure yet, but since we’re already here, let’s thoroughly investigate what it intends for us and how long it plans to keep us in this loop,” Jiang Chengxuan proposed, and they continued onward.

Thus, they went through the cycle repeatedly, over ten times, spending more than a month in the process.

Under normal circumstances, they should have been teleported out of the Thousand River Secret Realm by now.

However, not only had they not been transported out, but the trial had also not concluded.

“This won’t do. If we continue like this, we’U never be able to leave, Feng Nianchuan and Yao Anrui expressed, visibly becoming agitated.

They were struggling with the repetitive “torture” of experiencing the same events over and over, causing cracks in their Dao heart.

This made Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan even more concerned. “If I’m not mistaken, the trial aimed at us probably involves us endlessly repeating the same experiences,” Jiang Chengxuan speculated.

“Repeat the same experiences?”

Feng Nianchuan and Yao Anrui were incredulous at Jiang Chengxuan’s suggestion.

“How is that possible?

Then, how long does it intend to test us?” they asked. Jiang Chengxuan glanced at them before replying gravely, “It’s hard to say. I fear the test won’t stop until we’re on the verge of a mental breakdown.”

“Uh…?”

This statement turned Feng Nianchuan and Yao Anrui pale.

This was because they had all thought of a problem.

If what Jiang Chengxuan said was true, then the probability of them really leaving this place this time was less than 10%.

After all, no one can guarantee what might happen when one is on the verge of a mental breakdown.

Most importantly, they couldn’t ensure whether the trial here would end at that point.

If it didn’t…

Feng Nianchuan and Yao Anrui were somewhat afraid to continue contemplating this.

“Well, Senior Brother Jiang, Senior Sister Shen, what if we try splitting up? Could there be a different outcome?”

Suddenly, Feng Nianchuan and Yao Anrui proposed this idea to them. Hearing their words, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan realized that their companions’ spirits were probably at some sort of breaking point. Continuing to keep them together might not be the best option.

So.

Jiang Chengxuan nodded at the two of them.

“If you want to try splitting up to see if the situation changes, then let s separate for now.

But according to my estimate, we will eventually come back together.
