Just as the saying goes, nothing exciting happens in quiet places. The square before them was bustling, overflowing with no less than several hundred people.

Jiang Xiaobai and AnRan leisurely made their way forward. Looking at the crowd, they couldn’t help but feel curious.

What on earth was the Sword Sea Sect up to?

Neither of them acted rashly. While surveying the scene, Jiang Xiaobai discreetly listened in on the surrounding chatter, gradually piecing together what was happening.

Today was the annual opening of the Sword Sea Sect’s treasure canticle. This treasure canticle was a kind of secret realm, filled with numerous precious treasures of high quality.

Once the inner sect disciples entered the realm, items would select them based on their aura and potential.

In this treasure canticle, one can find cultivation techniques and treasures. For the inner sect disciples of the Sword Sea Sect, it was a grand event. Whether they could win the favor of powerful treasures indicated if they could achieve greater accomplishments in the future.

On the surface, this treasure canticle served as an opportunity for the inner sect disciples to seek their fortune. However, it was also a way for the sect to assess their potential.

The treasure canticle had a rule: if a disciple entered and failed to gain the favor of any treasure, they would be demoted from inner sect disciple to outer sect disciple.

The rule seemed cruel, but it also served to help the Sword Sea Sect identify those with true talent.

Nevertheless, all the inner sect disciples gathered enthusiastically around the square, eagerly awaiting the opening of the treasure canticle.

Everyone in sight wore the attire of inner disciples, while Jiang Xiaobai and AnRan, dressed as outer sect disciples, stood out like sore thumbs.

They occasionally received scornful glances from some. A handful even sneered coldly at them.

AnRan couldn’t quite tolerate this. His face might have been simple and honest-looking after the disguise, but his ferocious eyes were unsettling.

After all, he had fought his way out of hordes of experts along with Jiang Xiaobai, having experienced numerous life-and-death moments. The killing intent in his sharp eyes was more than these disciples, coddled within the sect, could ever match.

Just as expected, all the disciples were frightened into silence by AnRan’s chilling gaze and did not dare to act recklessly.

“A bunch of cowards,” AnRan scoffed.

By his side, Jiang Xiaobai gently tugged at his sleeve, “Don’t stir up any trouble. We’re here to carry out our plan, any deviation will make matters complicated.”

“Humph, just a bunch of trash… But rest assured, I know my limits,” AnRan indignantly replied.

All these so-called Sword Sea Sect inner disciples were only at the intermediate or late stages of Transcendence. In AnRan’s eyes, they were just trash!

Jiang Xiaobai squinted his eyes as he examined their surroundings, constantly analyzing whether he could seize the opportunity to enter this so-called treasure canticle.

If there truly were countless treasures inside, as the disciples claimed, then he must make it in!

Perhaps this trip could allow his two great masters to absorb treasures like crazy. They might even break through one level of the Heaven and Earth seal.

Although it was only one level of the seal, its unleashed power was beyond Jiang Xiaobai’s imagination.

“But, how should I enter?” He pondered.

“Apart from an inner sect disciple’s token, they also seem to require special branded auras. Otherwise, there’s no other way.” Jiang Xiaobai was at a loss for a solution. His gaze subtly shifted to the Sword Sea Sect’s inner disciples scurrying about.

Just as he was contemplating whether to make a move on a few inner sect disciples, two figures in red robes started to approach them from afar.

Unlike the disciples in blue, these were the sect’s personally taught disciples!

They were of the same caliber as Li Xuanlin.

The two of them fixed their gaze on Jiang Xiaobai and AnRan as soon as they arrived, exuding an intimidating aura that was at the beginning stage of transcendence.

This made both Jiang Xiaobai and AnRan extremely cautious, preparing to make a move at any moment.

What they didn’t anticipate was the two personally nurtured disciples pointed at them as soon as they approached and said:

“Who let you two out? Don’t you know it’s crucial to prepare the backup spirit stones for the opening of the treasure canticle now? A single slip-up could trap many disciples within.”

“What are you just standing there for?”

“I guess only force will make you understand! Dammit, how the hell did Li Suhua pick you two bozos?” One of the red-robed disciples seemed exasperated. He grabbed Jiang Xiaobai and AnRan’s collars, thankfully only their collars. Otherwise, their concealed aura would be exposed.

At the same time, Jiang Xiaobai signaled AnRan not to retaliate and to observe the situation first.

Following a cold snort from the personally nurtured disciple, their figures vanished from the scene. When they reappeared, they were inside a cave.

Within the cave was another red-robed disciple, busily engaged in some task.

Upon noticing their arrival, this disciple lifted his head quickly.

“Senior Brother Liu, why are you here?”

The disciple who had grabbed Jiang Xiaobai and AnRan replied coldly, “Li Suhua, you don’t appreciate what you have, do you? The sect gave you such an important task, and yet, you’re slacking off.”

“No, no I didn’t…”

“Hmph, denying it now? These two snuck out, and you didn’t even realize it?”

“But I…” This remark not only left Li Suhua dumbfounded, but Jiang Xiaobai and AnRan were also equally baffled. They snuck out?

“Enough, no more explanations. You need to keep a proper eye on them. If the opening of the treasure canticle goes awry because of any of you, we’ll see how you explain yourselves to the elders.”

After he finished speaking, the disciple turned to leave, still mumbling as he went, “The outer disciples are getting worse. Instead of doing their work, they just love to run out and create a fuss…”

Jiang Xiaobai and AnRan were left dumbstruck but remained silent. Jiang Xiaobai took the opportunity to survey the cave, noticing nearly five hundred million first-class spirit stones piled around.

“You two, you really shouldn’t have run around at such an important time.” Jingling Li Suhua complained, “Hurry up and help prepare the spirit stones. If something goes wrong with the stones required to open the treasure canticle, we’re all finished.”

While his attitude was poor, he wasn’t particularly aggressive.

It was evident that he was just venting some frustration. He was unlikely to abuse his power to bully people just because he was a personally taught disciple.

Jiang Xiaobai only nodded in response, silent all the while. His gaze fell on the entrance of a light curtain behind the disciple.
