Reverse War Surpass Immortal

Chapter 1206 - 1068: Two Choices

The team spent 15 minutes and finally managed to eliminate those Ice and Snow Demons.After eliminating them, a small path appeared on what was originally a smooth, impenetrable stone wall.

"Let's go in!"

Nangong Qingyu promptly gathered the other martial artists to enter with her.

After entering the third stage, she instructed the team to take Elixir Pills and recover their Primordial Power well here.

"Time is tight now. You must hurry; we will challenge the third stage in two hours!"

Nangong Qingyu said.

After saying this, she went to Duan Gujin and Shi Potian, giving them two Ten-thousand Yuan Pills.

"You two take these Ten-thousand Yuan Pills and digest them well. Within two hours, your Primordial Power will recover to Peak State!"

"Alright!"

Duan Gujin and Shi Potian each took a Ten-thousand Yuan Pill and then tended to themselves, recovering their Primordial Power well.

They knew the Ten-thousand Yuan Pill was a rare Elixir Pill that could help them quickly recover their Primordial Power. In the past, they desired the Ten-thousand Yuan Pill, but its alchemical creation is extremely difficult, requiring strong Spiritual Power, Spiritual Medicine, and a Pill Furnace.

And Duan Gujin didn't possess many Treasures. Even if he had Spiritual Medicines and a Pill Furnace now, his current Spiritual Power is not sufficient to successfully create a Ten-thousand Yuan Pill.

"This Lady Nangong is truly generous!"

Duan Gujin thought to himself.

Time passed slowly, and soon, the Primordial Power of Duan Gujin and Shi Potian was completely restored.

"Everyone, has your Peak State been restored? Raise your hand if you've fully recovered!"

Suddenly, Nangong Qingyu asked.

The others raised their hands one after another.

Seeing the other martial artists raise their hands, Nangong Qingyu immediately led them towards the direction of the third stage.

Everyone heightened their alertness, knowing the challenges ahead would become increasingly difficult and the enemies stronger.

After passing through a narrow passage, they arrived at the edge of a huge pool of water.

This giant pool was blood-red, constantly bubbling, which made them feel most eerie.

"What is this place?"

Upon seeing this massive blood-red pool, the martial artists present were suddenly bewildered and at a loss.

They extended their Divine Senses but found nothing unusual nearby.

However, their Divine Sense exploration could not penetrate the blood-red pool, so they suspected something strange about the pool itself.

They approached the pool's edge to investigate further.

"This place, only this pool is the most unusual!"

Duan Gujin exhaled deeply, moved his mind, and unleashed a palm at the pool.

A great loud noise echoed as others saw a massive hand formed by Primordial Power strike the pool.

They widened their eyes, carefully observing the changes in the pool, suspecting that the Demon of this stage might be hiding in the water.

Sure enough, the next moment, they saw a massive blood-red serpent surge from the pool.

Seeing the enormous blood-red serpent, some timid women were frightened and retreated.

The male martial artists present, however, each wielded a Dark Weapon, aiming at the blood-red serpent before them.

"Humans, you've finally arrived!"

However, just as they intended to attack collectively, the blood-red serpent suddenly spoke.

Witnessing this scene, the martial artists were dumbfounded.

"Are you talking to me?"

Many martial artists looked around, trying to find the speaker behind the earlier words.

But after searching for a while, they found nothing.

"No need to glance around; I am the guardian of the third stage! If you wish to pass this stage, there are two ways! First, you need to defeat me; only when I admit defeat, delivered willingly, can you pass this stage easily! This stage is called a Martial Arts Battle! Secondly, apart from defeating me, I will present you with a question. If you pass, I will send all of you to the fourth stage; this stage is called an intellectual battle. Each of you has a choice between an intellectual battle or a martial battle. If any of you successfully passes, all of you may advance with that person to the fourth stage! Those are my conditions!"

The blood-red serpent stated seriously.

The martial artists present, including Duan Gujin and Shi Potian, upon hearing the blood-red serpent's conditions, their eyes flickered intensely, their minds racing, contemplating how much truth and deception lay in the serpent's words.

"Brother Shi, do you trust what it says?"

Duan Gujin transmitted telepathically to Shi Potian.

"It's not trustworthy; I would rather choose martial battle in this stage than an intellectual battle! You also know, only it knows the answer to the intellectual battle! If it refuses to acknowledge it, we stand no chance! So, I say, the best approach is a martial battle, we all attack together to blast it directly! In both previous stages, we have destroyed the Demons ourselves, and by slaying the Demon, we cleared those stages!"

Shi Potian replied telepathically.

"Don't assume that just by defeating me, you can easily pass this stage. I am the one who controls this stage; if I don't open the fourth stage for you, you won't open it at all!"

As if it heard Duan Gujin and Shi Potian's secret conversation, the blood-red serpent suddenly said.

"Can we discuss it for a moment?"

At this moment, Nangong Qingyu suddenly said.

"Alright, but if you cannot defeat me within two hours, you'll automatically transport out of here!"

The blood-red serpent replied coldly.

Upon hearing this, everyone frowned deeply.

Nangong Qingyu immediately led the other martial artists back to the path they came from and quietly asked, "Now, faced with two choices, what do you think is the best course of action?"

One martial artist immediately said, "I think we should choose martial battle. The serpent says we must do as it says, but we don't know if it's truthful or deceitful. If it's truthful, it would naturally be tremendous good for us! But if it's deceitful, then we'd be fools! My approach is to first test it. After all, our team has over a dozen people; if even that can't defeat it, then we have no choice but to charge and fight recklessly! The serpent's true intentions are beyond our imagination!"

"Right, right, I feel the same! I think we should start with the intellectual battle; if we find it fake, then we duel it. If everyone ends up failing, then we all attack it together, which is the simplest way!"
