"You're here!" When Guhan saw the Scarlet Sword Immortal appear before him, he was stunned.
Even a dabbler like Sword Immortal Scarlet had been able to pass the trial of the Heavenly Road Palace and arrive at the entrance of the Yang Guang Palace. Just how had she passed the trial?
Could it be that Guhan was blind?
Did I see wrong?
Was Sword Immortal Scarlet Sword Immortal a swordsman like him?
"Why can't I be here?
If even you can pass the test, why can't I? "Yan Hong angrily glared at Guhan, seemingly angry that Guhan was looking down on her.
However, amidst the anger, there was a hint of joy. This was the joy of being able to see the Frigid Cold again.
"My apologies, my apologies!
I didn't expect you to be able to control Sword Qi to such an extent! "
Guhan said sincerely. He could not believe his own eyes. He had actually misjudged an expert like Captivating Red.
"Sword Qi?
Why are you controlling the sword energy? "Captivating Red's eyes widened in confusion.
"Don't tell me you don't have Sword Qi to clean up the rubbish you left on the road?"
Guhan could tell from Captivating Red's expression that she was not faking it. Could it be that Captivating Red really had not used her sword qi? Did she have some other way to clear away the dust and trash?
"Why did you use Sword Qi?
How could he use Sword Qi to clean up thousands of dust particles?
That was simply impossible, alright?
Not even Fleeting Jiandi could do that! "
Yan Hong waved her hand. She did not think too much about what Guhan had said. She subconsciously ruled out the possibility of using her sword Qi to clean up all the dust.
Because according to Captivating Red's knowledge, if one could use Sword Qi to clean up tens of millions of tiny specks of dust, leaving not a single speck behind … Captivating Red would rather believe that cows could fly in the sky than believe this.
"Oh!"
Guhan didn't say anything more about the Sword Qi. Yan Hong, who was beside him, couldn't believe that this guy had used Sword Qi to clear away all the dust she had left behind.
"Then how did you pass through the Maluo Palace?!"
Guhan asked curiously. From Yan Hong's reaction, it was clear that she hadn't used the same method to get to Yang Guang Palace.
In that case, it was obvious that there was a way to pass through the road maze that he had never thought of.
"Of course he was carried here by my Pao Ding!"
Yan Hong looked at Gu Han in confusion. "You just have to sit in the trash can and let your sword lady carry the trash can across the road. Isn't that how you came here?" Gu Han asked. Yan Hong looked at Yan Hong in confusion.
"…" Fortunately, Guhan swallowed his words in time. Otherwise, he would have spat out a mouthful of blood.
After hearing Yan Hong's words, Guhan realized that he had made a grave mistake. He had used the stupidest method in the world to pass the Maluo Palace. He had thought himself clever, but in the end, he had done such a stupid thing.
Even though Yan Hong's explanation was vague, it was enough. Guhan immediately realized what the real way to pass the Maluo Palace was.
In the Maluo Palace, Guhan had overlooked something very important. It was a trash can that was provided to Guhan at the entrance of the Maluo Palace.
Guhan had thought that the trash can was only used to store trash. He hadn't realized that there was a deeper meaning to it. It was actually the most important tool in the entire Maluo Palace.
Now that he thought about it, this trash can was much bigger than normal trash cans. It could easily fit a person in it, and it was also equipped with a sealed trash lid.
This trash can was also in a dust-free environment like the Maluo Palace. There was no dust on it either.
The sword wielder only needed to sit in the trash can and cover it with the trash lid. Then, the sword wielder's dust would naturally not fall from the sword wielder's body onto the road.
Of course, once the sword wielder sat in the trash can, it would be impossible for him to move the trash. Then, a second person would need to carry the trash can across the road to the exit of the Maluo Palace.
In fact, this thought had flashed through Guhan's mind before. However, Guhan instinctively felt that it was a waste of time, so he didn't think too much about it.
This was because if someone carried the trash can across the Maluo Palace, then even if the sword wielder inside the trash can did not leave any dust behind, the person carrying the trash can would leave behind some dust.
However, Guhan didn't realize that there was an existence in this world that was also the cleanest without a single speck of dust on its body … This existence was naturally the sword wielder's sword wielder.
After transforming from sword form to sword maiden form, the sword maiden was in the cleanest state. Just like the dust-free Maluo Palace, there was not a speck of dust on its body.
Therefore, after transforming into sword maiden form, the sword maiden only needed to take off her clothes and carry the trash can across the road naked. Then, not a speck of dust would fall on the road, and it would be easy to pass the test of the Maluo Palace.
This was the real way to pass the Maluo Palace. Guhan's way of passing the test was simply crooked.
For example, if you went from Shanghai to Yanjing, the fastest way was of course to take the high-speed train. If you didn't have money, you could also take a train or a car. These were all normal and correct methods, which were equivalent to the method used by the Scarlet Sword Immortal.
But how did Guhan do it?
He first took a ship from Shanghai to Japan, then from Japan to Australia, then from Australia to Argentina, also known as Argentina to the United States, from the United States to England, from England to Ukraine, all of Russia to the Far East, and finally from the Far East to the three northeastern provinces. Then, he walked from Shenyang to Yanjing.
This was equivalent to walking around the entire Earth. After all, the Earth was round!
With this description, everyone could understand how crooked Guhan's method of passing the test was.
Originally, Guhan did not think that the difficulty of the Maluo Palace would suddenly increase by so many times. Now, it seemed that the Maluo Palace was not the most difficult of the seven palaces. Instead, it was the easiest palace.
After all, even the first test of the Maluo Palace required a clean and beautiful movement technique. At the very least, it could stump 80% of the sword bearers.
However, the Maluo Palace was not difficult at all. One Sword Maiden was enough.
This made Guhan feel strange. Why did the Maluo Palace's difficulty suddenly decrease to such a degree?
What exactly was the Maluo Palace testing the sword bearers?
Before Gu Han could think any further, he was shaken awake by Captivating Red. "Hey, do you know how to fly?" Captivating Red asked expectantly, "Hey, can you fly?"
"Fly?"
Guhan looked at Scarlet Sword suspiciously. In theory, as a famous sword bearer, Guhan should not be able to fly. This was an ability that only spirit sword bearers had.
However, if it was only a short distance, such as the one kilometer long road in the Maluo Palace, Guhan was confident that he could rely on his qinggong to cross it.
Even if it was a long flight, with the Sword Practitioner's Inscription of the Nine Swords of Mysterious Heaven, Guhan could fly over a hundred kilometers without a problem. Therefore, Guhan should be able to fly.
Therefore, how to answer Scarlet Sword's question became a very particular matter. It all depended on Guhan's own intentions.
"I can't fly!" In the end, Guhan gave Scarlet Sword this answer.
"That's great!"
Scarlet Sword clapped her hands happily. "Both of us can't fly, so we can complete the Maluo Palace test together."
"Hehe!
And here I was wondering why you were waiting for me here. So it's because you want us to complete the test together! "
Guhan rolled his eyes at Scarlet Sword, causing her to lower her head in embarrassment. "I would've waited for you even if it wasn't the two of us."
"Tell me!
What is the test of the Maluo Palace?
Why is there a need for two people to complete the test together?
Does Fleeting Jiandi not know that not many sword bearers have the ability to reach the Eighth Maluo Palace? The probability of two people reaching the Eighth Maluo Palace at the same time is less than 0.01%! Where did Fleeting Jiandi get the courage to set the test as a two-person test?
That's strange! "Guhan narrowed his eyes. Guhan was indeed surprised.
Just as Gu Han had said, the biggest problem any sword-bearer who reached the Yang Guang Palace would face was not the difficulty of the trial, but the fact that they could not find a helper who could pass the trial with them.
"It's not like that!
Let me explain. "Scarlet Sword immediately began to explain.
The test of the Maluo Palace did not require two people to complete the test at the same time. There were two different ways to clear the test.
The sword wielder could choose one person to pass the test alone, or choose two people to pass the test together.
However, the requirement for the sword bearer to pass the test alone was that the sword bearer must be able to fly and not touch the ground during the test.
It was the opposite for the two-person test. The sword bearer was not required to be able to fly. The sword bearer was not allowed to fly at all. The sword bearer had to complete the test with their feet on the ground.
However, contrary to Gu Han's expectations, the Yang Guang Temple's Duo Test was not a normal test where two friends would help each other and support each other to pass the test.
In reality, the two-person test of the Maluo Palace was carried out on an individual basis. Not only would the other party not be the pillar of support, but the other party would also become the burden of the other party.
To put it simply, Scarlet Sword and Guhan would face the test of the Maluo Palace on two different paths. Failure on these paths would not kick the other party out of the Maluo Palace … However, every failure would increase the burden of the other party by 50kg to 1,000kg.
In other words, it was a typical example of a lousy teammate setting up a deadly teammate.
