Chapter 275: Do You Have the Answer?

Help in times of difficulty was especially valuable.
Therefore, Wang Ye was grateful to these two seniors who had generously given him dark crystals and trusted him unconditionally.
The man in heavy armor was the commander of a 2-star adventurer team. His name was Luo Zhenggang, and he had been through hundreds of battles.
The voluptuous woman was called Madam Yan. She was the widow of the Azure Mountain Cosmic Nation’s Qiyin family. After inheriting her husband’s inheritance, she was quite wealthy.
“Greetings, Seniors.” Wang Ye greeted them with a smile.
“Boy, you’ve earned quite a bit.” Madam Yan walked over leisurely, smiling.
“I have also offended many people,” Wang Ye said.
“Those people are nothing to be afraid of.” Luo Zhenggang’s voice was sonorous. “A truly powerful expert wouldn’t care about such a small amount of money. Instead, it’s more important that your information is useful to them. If they successfully obtain the treasures of the black realm’s master, they will owe you a favor. This might be the most profitable for you.”
“If that’s the case, I hope it’s the two seniors,” Wang Ye said with a smile.
Madam Yan giggled. “Boy, you really know how to talk. Come, tell me, what do the numbers above each passage mean?”
“The number of people who can successfully pass or the number of treasures.
I’m more inclined to the latter,” Wang Ye said. “Or both.”
Based on his understanding of the black realm’s master, Wu Yuan, Wang Ye was able to make a clear judgment.
Firstly, it was the other party’s identity as a cosmic pirate. He had plundered all the way to the Black Hole level, so he was naturally rich. The number of treasures he had accumulated was huge.
Then, there was the white lightning weapon spirit’s goal. It was obviously casting a huge net, using treasures or inheritances to achieve its goal.
“What do the signs and dark beasts above the passages mean?” Luo Zhenggang nodded.
“They represent the compatible path that suits one the best. As long as it’s compatible,” Wang Ye said, “You’ll feel an attraction when you get close to the passage. The strength of the attraction depends on two aspects. First, it depends on the compatibility of the individual’s cultivation path with the passage. Second, it depends on the amount of energy contained in the passage.”
“Tell me about it in detail.” Luo Zhenggang’s tiger eyes were bright.
Wang Ye nodded. “The black realm’s master, Wu Yuan, walked the path of combining the physical body, space, and thunder. Therefore, his treasures, inheritance, and comprehension, including the cosmic humans he chooses, must be related to these three great paths.”
“This can be clearly distinguished from the types of dark beasts. There are space-type dark beasts, dark beasts with strong physical bodies, dark beasts that master both lightning and space, and so on. Different types of dark beasts have different forms and appearances. They are the symbols of the seven passages from 4 to 10.”
“For example, passage 10 is the combination of the physical body, space, and lightning. It’s the most difficult one and there’s only one treasure. However, there’s almost a 100% chance that it will contain the inheritance of the black realm’s master, Wu Yuan.”
Luo Zhenggang and Madam Yan’s eyes lit up and their heartbeats accelerated.
The inheritance of a Black Hole-level expert!
Who didn’t want it?
“But I don’t recommend you two to choose that passage.” Wang Ye doused cold water on them. “That is a passage with a slim chance of survival. Even if one is compatible, one might not be able to obtain the inheritance. If one is not compatible, the chance of survival is estimated to be 0%. Seniors, your origin of thunder cultivation is too weak, so this passage is impassable for you.”
Luo Zhenggang understood. “I have a strong attraction to passages 6 and 8, especially passage 6.”
“Passage 6 is the path of a pure warrior,” Wang Ye said. “It’s the path of physical cultivation. Passage 8 is the path of combining the physical body and space. Senior Luo’s body is strong, and your spatial talent is passable.”
Luo Zhenggang nodded and pondered. “Passage 6 has the number 8, which means there are eight treasures. Passage 8 has the number 2, which means there are only two treasures.”
“But these two treasures might be worth a hundred times more than all the treasures in passage 6,” Wang Ye said with a smile.
The two of them were stunned.
” The first question I asked the white lightning weapon spirit was where the treasures of the black realm’s master that are worth more than a million dark crystals are.” Wang Ye looked at the two. “It answered me that they’re in passages 7, 8, 9, and 10!”
One million dark crystals!
Even though Madam Yan was wealthy, she was so shocked that her chest trembled.
“But Senior Luo, please think it through. The number of treasures is very likely to represent the chances of survival,” Wang Ye said. “The more treasures there are, the higher the chances of survival.”
“Let me think.” Luo Zhenggang fell silent.
Madam Yan rested her chin on her hand and looked at Wang Ye with her almond-shaped eyes. “Then what should I do? Passages 4 to 10 are not suitable for me.”
“Senior, you can go to Passage 2 or 3,” Wang Ye said. “Almost everyone feels an attraction to these two passages. Passage 3 is stronger and passage 2 is weaker. This represents the difficulty of the test. I reckon that passage 2 shouldn’t be too difficult. Anyone can pass, though there might be some special requirements.”
Wang Ye remembered the white lightning weapon spirit’s earnest advice.
He would be able to survive if he entered passage 2 and wasn’t greedy.
If he, a Cosmic Lifeform, could pass, the others naturally wouldn’t have a problem.
“Passage 2, 391 treasures.” Madam Yan pursed her red lips. Her every move exuded the charm of a mature woman. “There are 48 treasures in passage 3. It’s so difficult.”
Wang Ye smiled. “If you’re confident in your abilities, you can go to passage 3. But if you’re not, you should go to passage 2 to choose a treasure. With the black realm’s master’s wealth, I estimate that any one of those 391 treasures will be worth more than one dark crystal.”
It would at least be advanced Dark Energy-level equipment.
The black realm’s master, Wu Yuan, probably wouldn’t keep any ordinary ones.
Behind Wang Ye, Yi Nai’er, Nante, and Hayat were already shocked.
Treasures worth more than 1 dark crystal!
Any one of the 391 treasures was worth that much!
In the inconspicuous passage 2!
But Wang Ye was still the most awesome.
In such a short time, not only did he obtain a large amount of information, but he also earned a huge sum from this information!
Madam Yan nodded thoughtfully. She seemed to have made up her mind. She looked up. “What about passage 1? Is there no treasure or danger? Can we go through it directly?”
“No, it varies from person to person.” Wang Ye shook his head.
“Only cosmic adventurers can pass?” Madam Yan remembered the icon on passage 1.
“Maybe… Quite the opposite.” Wang Ye thought to himself.
If one did not know the identity of the black realm’s master, they would naturally think such when they saw the cosmic adventurer icon, but… The other party was actually a cosmic pirate!
This was most likely a trap.
However, this was only his speculation and he could not be sure.
“Don’t go to passage 1.” Wang Ye said to Madam Yan and hesitated for a moment. “I suppose that you would want to go to passage 3, but… I suggest you go to passage 2.”
“Oh? Do you know what I’m thinking?” Madam Yan giggled.
“It’s because Senior is very confident in your strength. However, from what I know,” Wang Ye said. “Passage 3’s requirements will be much more difficult than you imagined.”
It wasn’t just Madam Yan. Most of the experts in the core area were the same.
They were too confident!
After all, they were all outstanding in their respective cosmic nations.
They had also stood out in the first test of the black realm. They were like the proud sons of heaven, giving them endless confidence.
But in fact, they were only the first batch of experts who were lucky enough to enter.
That was all.
If one had seen the scene of the black realm’s master, Wu Yuan, killing a large number of Super Star-level experts with a wave of his hand, they would know clearly what level he was at and what level he was interested in!
They were far from enough!
The white lightning weapon spirit wasn’t just choosing from these dozens of people. It was choosing from tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of talented experts!
Even if it cast a wide net and lowered some requirements, the requirements still wouldn’t be too low.
Wang Ye glanced at Nante from the corner of his eye.
The ones who were truly qualified to take the treasures were the “favored sons of heaven” who had been chosen by the white lightning weapon spirit as soon as they entered!
The two seniors left after asking.
Wang Ye only gave suggestions and didn’t interfere with their decision. He didn’t even see which passage they entered in the end.
Everyone had their own destiny.
After resting for a while, he had Nante invite the customers over one by one.
Wang Ye just answered the questions and gave no explanations. It was much simpler.
He experienced the simplicity and straightforwardness of the white lightning weapon spirit.
This money was extremely profitable!
Just as Senior Luo said, a true expert wouldn’t care about such a small amount of money.
This was especially true when they learned that passage 2, which was the safest, had 391 treasures that were worth more than one dark crystal each.
At that moment, they found out that the one million cosmic dollars consultation fee they gave Wang Ye was worth it!
“Done.” Wang Ye smiled at the people behind him.
“There’s still a group of people outside. How do you plan to deal with them?” Yi Nai’er asked.
“I can’t.” Wang Ye shrugged. “The experts who consulted me must have revealed a lot of information. Even if each person only reveals a little, all the information gathered will be very impressive.”
The remaining people were not stupid.
If they didn’t pay the consultation fee, they would surely think of other ways.
Therefore, he only made a profit.
This was because information circulated too quickly.
The core area was only a small circle. Everyone would know once the news spread.
It was just that the remaining Dark Energy-level experts might have some doubts about the accuracy of the information.
Also, no one knew the secret of passage 1.
“Wang Ye, which tunnel do you think I should go to?” Hayat looked over.
Wang Ye looked at him. “Loumen went to passage 6 without hesitation. This is his confidence. If you’re hesitating, it means you don’t have enough confidence. In that case, passage 2 will be better.”
Hayat clenched his fists, feeling a little unwilling. He knew that such an opportunity might not come by once in his life, but as the family leader, he was under a lot of pressure.
“What about me?” Yi Nai’er blinked her eyes.
“You’ve already decided, so why are you still asking me?” Wang Ye laughed.
“I want to hear your opinion!” Yi Nai’er held Wang Ye’s hand.
“Passage 2,” Wang Ye said.
“Then let’s go in together?” Yi Nai’er beamed.
“I’m not sure yet.” Wang Ye’s words stunned Yi Nai’er and Hayat.
Wang Ye wanted to go to another passage?
That was impossible.
“Do you have an answer?” Wang Ye looked at Nante, who had been fighting with himself.
Compared to him, Nante was the one with the most difficult choice.
This was because he was someone who had caught the eye of the white lightning weapon spirit..
