OMG! I Transmigrated into Four Books at the Same Time!-Chapter 443 - 419: Eighty-One Difficulties

"System, what exactly is going on?" Chen Xuan couldn't help but question.

The system fell silent.

He wanted to know what was happening too, but he himself had no clue either.

The system spoke slowly, "This is just an accident!"

An accident?

Because of an accident, he nearly lost his life!

Chen Xuan held back his anger, "Next time, I hope there will be no more accidents."

"Rest assured," the system said, but it was also somewhat uncertain itself; after all, there had been too many strange occurrences lately.

Chen Xuan could only reluctantly choose to believe.

It took a lot of effort for Golden Light and Chen Xuan to barely exterminate this wave of insects.

Golden Light turned around to see Qiong Yu and Shi Nian looking on with amused expressions, completely unharmed!

His expression changed slightly, "Why didn't the insects attack you?"

Qiong Yu innocently said, "I don't know. I was ready to fight. But, the insects just wouldn't come after us."

Qiong Yu guessed it had something to do with Shi Nian, but she didn't know the specifics, so her innocence seemed particularly sincere.

Golden Light stared at Qiong Yu for a long time.

This is the Secret Realm!

It has been ten thousand years, and never has it been heard that someone could tamper with it.

Moreover, creatures in the Secret Realm have different attack triggers.

Perhaps, it was he and Chen Xuan who triggered the attack conditions, while Qiong Yu and Shi Nian did not?

Golden Light stuffed a few Elixirs into his mouth and gave a few to Chen Xuan as well.

The two of them adjusted their breaths for a while.

Although they could not recover to their best condition, they were still at about eighty percent.

Golden Light wanted to keep adjusting his breath until he was fully restored, but... this snowy mountain was too cold, and lingering here could hasten his demise.

"Continue upwards." Golden Light's complexion didn't look very good, but he spoke anyway.

Qiong Yu and Shi Nian naturally had no objections.

The few of them continued upwards.

Before long. A layer of fierce winds appeared on the snowy mountain.

The winds were dense, and if one entered unprepared, they would likely be instantly shredded into pieces!

Golden Light's expression turned ugly.

But having come to this point, there was no turning back.

He looked at Qiong Yu, "I was injured the last time. This time, it should be your turn to go first."

Qiong Yu blinked, surprisingly not refusing, "That makes sense. Then Xiao Hua and I will go first."

Golden Light was somewhat surprised, but he still firmly watched Qiong Yu: "Okay."

Without saying more, Qiong Yu took Shi Nian and went in.

Golden Light's eyes didn't blink, observing the situation.

Result.

The fierce winds seemed terrifying, but as Shi Nian and Qiong Yu entered, it was as if they were taking a walk through the woods, facing no obstacles at all, and instantly disappeared into the snowy winds.

"System! Is this fierce wind not dangerous at all?" Chen Xuan was somewhat surprised.

The system was also bewildered.

Something's not right. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

The person had told him that this fierce wind should be extremely hard to navigate, for which he had even prepared a protective shield for Chen Xuan.

But...

Judging by the way Shi Nian and Qiong Yu looked, it didn't seem dangerous at all?

Recalling the successive errors, the system cautiously said, "It indeed doesn't seem very dangerous. Try it yourself first. If there's danger, I will intervene."

Chen Xuan didn't trust the system anymore, but the easy passage of Qiong Yu and Shi Nian gave him some sense of security.

"Let's go in," said Golden Light Immortal Emperor quickly, "Based on previous experience, passing through this layer of fierce wind likely leads to treasure. If we're slow, the treasure might be claimed by others!"

Golden Light Immortal Emperor was the first to enter the fierce winds.

Chen Xuan quickly followed.

Thinking of how relaxed Qiong Yu and Shi Nian appeared just then, they entered in a full sprint.

However.

As soon as they entered the harsh wind area, a terrifying oppressive force attacked from all directions, drastically changing both of their complexions.

The fierce wind was not only immensely oppressive, its terrifying speed turned the wind into sharp weapons, instantly slicing scars onto their bodies.

"This is impossible!" Golden Light was both shocked and furious.

As for Qiong Yu, that was to be expected.

But her disciple? That disciple was only at the Golden Immortal Stage in cultivation.

If a Golden Immortal Stage could pass through easily, why couldn't he?

Golden Light was furiously angry, but the fierce wind waited for no one, and the two had no choice but to grit their teeth and move forward despite the injuries.

"System!" Chen Xuan gritted his teeth, "Why aren't you taking action?"

The system hesitated. It didn't dare to say that it was also afraid of another accident happening.

But after thinking it over, it still deployed the protective shield it had prepared beforehand.

But the next moment.

Its mind went blank, as the protective shield, instead of covering them, was cast on a stone on the ground.

System: "????"

Chen Xuan had no idea what had happened, only urging, "System, quickly do something!"

The system was silent for a while then said, "I think it's better for you to rely on yourself."

Chen Xuan was about to go mad!

Was this system deliberately tormenting him?

Throughout this stretch of fierce wind, Golden Light and Chen Xuan used numerous methods, with several of their magic treasures destroyed before they finally made it through.

When they came out, both were blood-drenched and gasping for breath.

"Master." Chen Xuan inquired, "If even those at the Golden Immortal Stage can pass, why did we end up so wretched?"

Golden Light said with a dark face, "I underestimated it. This trial by fierce wind likely grows stronger with stronger opponents and weaker with weaker ones. That disciple had a weaker cultivation and probably faced a weaker fierce wind. We are stronger, so naturally, the fierce wind was also stronger."

So that was it.

Chen Xuan nodded, meanwhile, a sense of dread emerged in his heart.

If that was really the case, what about Qiong Yu?

Her cultivation was not weak, so the power of the fierce wind must also not be low, yet how could she pass through it so easily?

Now looking up, Chen Xuan realized that they could no longer even see Qiong Yu and Shi Nian's figures.

The face of the Golden Light Immortal Emperor darkened even further.

He had been injured again, originally needing proper recuperation.

But now, with Qiong Yu having reached the mountain first, what if she took all the treasures found there?

"Let's go, we cannot stop; straight to the top," decided the Golden Light Immortal Emperor.

Chen Xuan nodded as well.

The master and disciple continued forward.

Various crises in this snowy mountain followed one after another.

Terrifying beasts, suddenly appearing poisonous herbs emitting toxic gases...

After overcoming ninety-nine difficulties, they barely reached the mountain top with both severely injured and almost depleted of their strengths. It was only because both were Immortal Emperors, with Golden Light being a Peak Immortal Emperor, that they could barely make it there, yet they were still at their limit.

Golden Light immediately looked for Qiong Yu and the others.

Soon, he indeed spotted Qiong Yu and Shi Nian standing in front of a transparent door.

This was… the gate of passage!

Golden Light's pupils constricted; he struggled to enter the door.

Qiong Yu and Shi Nian seemed to be waiting for their arrival.

Upon seeing them, Qiong Yu waved and directly led Shi Nian into the door.

The next moment.

The constellations shifted.

The whole snowy mountain began to collapse. The Golden Light Immortal Emperor and Chen Xuan mustered their last breath, desperately climbing to the passage gate.
