Song Changsheng couldn't predict the future and wasn't sure how long he could last in the Illusion Realm, so he needed to use a few "little tricks" to avoid being eliminated in the first round.
It was a dark, round pill he had hidden under his tongue. The outside of the pill was coated in a thick layer of beeswax, which would slowly melt and eventually release the medicinal liquid within.
This medicinal liquid was the juice of the Bitter Heart Vine. It had no other use; it was simply "bitter." The bitter taste could stimulate his Divine Soul, "pulling" him out of the Illusion Realm and allowing him to see through it by way of a trick.
Though it was a good method, it could only be used once. Afterward, he would have to rely on himself.
After doing all this, Song Changsheng noticed that besides him, a few other people had also put something in their mouths, including the woman from the Golden Crow Sect named Qingxue.
