“Come! If you’re ready, come and fight me!”

The Guardian looked at Mo Xiao, who was not far away, and thrust his heavy sword into the ground.

With his eyes glowing red, he slowly closed them and stopped moving, seemingly entering a standby state.

Not far away, Mo Xiao looked at the motionless Guardian and muttered in his heart:

“Is the instant death attribute useless against him? Or is there something else going on? Could it be that the red energy is a separate entity?”

Mo Xiao was full of doubts at this moment and instinctively used his probing skill on the Guardian again.

[Guardian ? Platinum-Level Boss]

Level: Level 30

Attributes: ???

Skill: ???

Introduction: A powerful presence at the end of the Guardian’s Trial, once the world’s strongest Sword Saint. It is unknown why he guards this place, possessing powerful abilities to manipulate the Trial Ground. Please do not attempt to fight him; escape is the only way out.

“What?! Why did the red energy disappear, and this guy’s grade and level both increased!” Mo Xiao widened his eyes in surprise.

According to the rules, that red vine should have been a demonic power, and doesn’t it say that demonization strengthens threefold and weakens threefold when purified?

Why doesn’t this law apply to this guy?

Why did this guy become stronger after being purified???

This is not logical!

“I say… Big boss, can you let me go back?”

Mo Xiao stood at a distance, staring at the Guardian for a long time, then cautiously took two steps forward and asked loudly.

Following Mo Xiao’s voice, the Guardian opened his eyes again.

But this time, the Guardian’s eyes were no longer red; they had a light blue hue. “This Trial Ground is extremely special. It is impossible to leave this place unless you pass the trial.”

Hearing this, Mo Xiao could only sigh helplessly.

“Looks like I can only continue scraping here?”

Mo Xiao gritted his teeth and once again drew his bow.

“Swish, swish, swish…”

Five arrows shot straight towards the Guardian’s face.

Just as the arrow was about to hit the Guardian, the Guardian suddenly opened his eyes.

His massive sword seemed weightless as he swung it instantly.

“Ding ding ding ding ding ding!”

Only five light clinks were heard, and the five arrows shot by Mo Xiao were instantly deflected.

Mo Xiao was also stunned when he saw this.

Before he could react, the Guardian appeared in front of Mo Xiao.

Without hesitation, he swung his heavy sword towards Mo Xiao’s forehead.

“!!!”

This sudden attack was too fast for even the War God to respond to.

“Am I going to die?!”

Seeing the heavy sword already above his head, Mo Xiao instinctively closed his eyes, waiting for the impending death.

However, after a long time, Mo Xiao did not feel any pain.

“Huh? 1… I’m not dead?”

Mo Xiao carefully opened his eyes and saw that the guardian’s heavy sword had stopped just above his head.

“You saved me. Although I won’t let you pass this trial, I’m not one to repay kindness with enmity.”

As the Guardian spoke, he slowly put away the heavy sword in his hand. “I won’t let you go over, nor can I release you, but 1 won’t kill you either. You’re on your own.”

With that, the Guardian took three steps forward and returned to his position in front of the passageway, closing his eyes again, and entering standby mode.

“…” Watching the Guardian return to his spot, Mo Xiao opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say for a moment.

With the terrifying speed of the Guardian, Mo Xiao was no match for him.

After all, his previous victories were all thanks to the combination of the Black Tortoise Armor.

Now that the War God’s reflexes were ineffective, Mo Xiao had no chance against this guy.

Unless Mo Xiao could kill him in one move, this was obviously impossible. Even the instant death effect couldn’t do it.

After all, even the flying longbow could not cause any damage to this fellow.

Seeing the Guardian standing at the entrance like a door god, Mo Xiao sat down directly on the ground, opened his backpack and skill panel, and began studying each item and skill, trying to find something that could break the stalemate.

“Eh?”

At this time, Mo Xiao suddenly exclaimed as a cloak appeared in his hand.

[Invisibility Cloak: Special item. It can hide one’s aura and figure and cannot be detected by any skills. It can last for 300 seconds. It’s a one-time use item.]

Mo Xiao didn’t even know when he had obtained this Invisible Cloak.

Concealing aura and figure, undetectable by any skill.

Although it only lasted for 300 seconds, there was no doubt that it was an extremely powerful artifact.

Thinking of this, Mo Xiao instinctively looked up and glanced at the passage behind the Guardian.

Perhaps he could really sneak past with this cloak…

With this thought in mind, Mo Xiao stood up and said, “Only 300 seconds, it can only hide my figure and aura, but my voice might still be audible… I’ll have to figure it out.”

Mo Xiao once again looked at the Guardian, who still had his eyes tightly shut, and surveyed the surroundings.

Then, with extreme caution, he took two steps forward.

The moment the Guardian opened his eyes, he immediately retreated.

With Mo Xiao’s retreat, the guardian closed his eyes again.

“The probing range is about eighty meters…”

Mo Xiao muttered as he took out two useless wolf fangs from his backpack and threw them out of the range of the Guardian’s detection.

Accompanied by two sounds, the Guardian’s eyes twitched open slightly. After confirming that no one had entered, he closed his eyes again.

“He reacts to sound. If the radius is 80 meters, it’s 160 meters. In fact, it’s even further…

“160 meters. Five minutes. That should do it.”

After confirming all of his information, Mo Xiao took a deep breath and carefully approached the boundary of the guardian’s detection range.

Then, he stepped inside the range and, in that instant, equipped the Invisibility Cloak.

[Invisibility Cloak equipped, countdown: 300 seconds!]

With the system prompt, Mo Xiao immediately looked at the guardian. “As expected, he can’t see me! There’s hope!”

Excited, Mo Xiao clenched his fist and began to move forward with cat-like steps, extremely slow and cautious.

300 seconds, not too long, but not too short either.

But for Mo Xiao at the moment, it was a very brief time.

Mo Xiao had thought about speeding up, but as soon as his footsteps became louder, the Guardian seemed to have a tendency to open his eyes slightly, so Mo Xiao had no choice but to slow down again.

Under Mo Xiao’s focused control, he finally crossed the 160 meters and entered the passage.

Mo Xiao quickly took off the cloak. “Phew… It looks like I succeeded!”

He then looked at the cloak in his hand.

[Invisible Cloak – Remaining Time: 63 seconds..]
