"This..." The old man stared blankly at the calm water surface, which reflected the full moon in the sky. Everything was so peaceful, as if nothing had ever happened.
The old man looked around on the water and finally figured out what the purple light was about. But there is always a bad feeling in my heart. He didn't know if all this happened by chance or for other reasons.
But thinking about Cheng Yu being hacked by him and being sucked into the swamp, there was no way he could survive no matter what!
The old man finally swung his knife and struck the place where Cheng Yu fell into the water a few times before he felt relieved, and then flew away.
"Oh my God! What happened just now?" After the old man left, everyone came back to their senses.
"Yes! What's going on with that purple light? Why is this water glowing? It's so weird?"
"Is there a strong man hiding in this swamp?" someone asked in confusion.
"Nonsense, have you ever heard of a strong man who was trained in a swamp?"
"It's hard to say. The world is so big, there are all kinds of wonders, and there are countless ways to cultivate Taoism in the world. Maybe there are really people who have achieved Taoism in the swamp?"
"Then jump down quickly. Maybe he will accept you as his disciple, teach you the method of ascension, and you may suddenly realize the way of heaven."
"Haha! Yes, you jump down and try. Maybe these crocodiles were raised by him, and they will all belong to you from now on." Everyone laughed.
"Tch." The man was speechless and returned directly to his resting place.

"Sister Ningyan, is there really a strange treasure in this forest of death?" A woman with an exquisite face asked the beautiful woman leading the way.
"Junior Sister Wushuang, Master has already mastered the Hundred Flowers Star Technique. I believe that even in the entire world of cultivation, no one can compare with Master in the Astrology Technique. Since Master has deduced that there is a strange treasure born in this forest of death, he is definitely not wrong. ." The beautiful woman known as Senior Sister Ningyan said affirmatively.
"Then Master, could you tell Senior Sister the place where the treasure was born?" Ning Wushuang asked curiously.
Originally, Ning Wushuang was staying at home with her father, but a few days ago, senior sister Ningyan led a group of junior sisters to Ningshui City and told the master to let her follow the senior sisters and their group to the Forest of Death to hunt for treasure.
So Ning Wushuang and others appeared in this forest of death.
"Haha, Junior Sister Wushuang, how can this astrology and divination technique be so magical? It's already amazing to be able to calculate the approximate location where the treasure was born. If you want to know the specific place, it's hard to find any treasures that we can't find in the future." Senior Sister Yan said with a smile.
"Haha, Junior Sister Wushuang is so cute. Master loves you so much. Maybe I will teach you the astrology skills in the future. You may be able to deduce the specific location of the treasure. By then, our Huaxian Valley will no longer be short of treasures, haha. ." Another beautiful woman said with a smile.
"Sister Ningxue, why are you making fun of me again?" Ning Wushuang blushed and patted Ningxue's arm, saying dissatisfiedly.
"Haha, what I said is true." Ningxue said with a smile.
"By the way, senior sister, since the master knows that there is a strange treasure born here, why doesn't the master come and get it himself? With her ability, wouldn't it be easy to get this treasure?" Ning Wushuang suddenly asked in confusion.
"Master once said that the center of the Death Forest is very mysterious and only monks below the Nascent Soul stage can enter." Ningyan explained.
"Why?"
"I don't know about this, and the master didn't say anything. In short, people from other sects will come when exotic treasures appear. We all must be careful of others plotting against us when we are trying to seize treasures." Ningyan reminded everyone.
"Senior sister, look, there are a lot of people gathered there. What are those people doing?" Ning Zi suddenly pointed to the front and said.
"That's the Death Swamp. We'll be careful when picking short grass later. It's best not to be seen." Ningyan said again. She seemed to be familiar with this place. She must have been here many times.
"Senior sister, what's the use of that short grass?" Ningzi asked curiously as this was her first time in the Forest of Death.
"Dwarf grass is a type of grass that grows in the death swamp. It is the only way to pass through the death swamp. Without it, the crocodiles in the swamp will attack us. Those people are probably looking for a way to pass through the swamp."
"Then should we tell them this method?" Ning Wushuang said.
"No, the ten sects have long agreed not to tell this secret. Short grass is not only a way to pass through the swamp, it is also an important reason to prevent the water-buying purple crocodile in the swamp from not coming ashore. If everyone knows this secret , when the short grass on the shore is suddenly uprooted, it will be dangerous to cause a series of troubles."
"If people outside the top ten sects know about it, won't they tell them?"
"People are selfish. How can they share it with others when they know there are countless treasures on the other side? So for now, we don't need to worry about this secret being leaked. If they have the ability, they can naturally find a way through this swamp. If they can't find it, it only means that they have no chance." Ningyan took the trouble to explain these situations one by one to the junior sisters who didn't understand.
"That's it!" Everyone nodded in realization.
"Strange! How could this happen? Why isn't the water in this swamp and the purple lotus purple?" The junior sisters came to the edge of the swamp, and Ningyan, Ningxue and the people who had been to Death suddenly said in surprise.
"Senior sister, what's wrong?" Ning Wushuang asked in confusion.
"The water in this swamp and the lotus flowers in the swamp were originally purple, but now the water and lotus flowers have become normal. This is really strange."
"Come on, everyone take this short grass with you first." Ningyan looked around, then quickly picked a few short grasses, distributed them to the sisters, and then said: "Let's go and ask others what happened. thing?"
"This fellow Taoist." Ningyan led everyone to a monk and asked.
"..." The man heard this gentle and clear voice, turned around and saw a group of beautiful women, and was stunned.
"Fellow Taoist...Fellow Taoist..." Ningyan frowned slightly when she saw the other party's expression, and called out twice, with a bit of dissatisfaction in her tone.
"Ah! Oh! Guo Quanming, I wonder what happened to the fairy!" The man came back to his senses, quickly looked away, and said hurriedly.
"Fellow Taoist, do you know what happened in this swamp? Why did the water and lotus here become normal?" Ningyan put away her dissatisfaction and asked again.
"Fairy, you really asked the right person. I really know this and witnessed it all with my own eyes." Hearing the fairy's words, the man suddenly became excited.
"Oh? Fellow Taoist, tell me what's going on?" Ningyan and others were also very curious.
"This happened last night. There was a big battle between a monk named Cheng Yu and a golden elixir master last night!" The man pondered his emotions for a while, and then said slowly.
"Cheng Yu!?" Ning Wushuang suddenly said in surprise.
"Junior sister, do you know this person named Cheng Yu?" Ningxue asked curiously.
"Fellow Taoist, you said that Cheng Yu fought with the master of Jindan? What about others? Where are they now?" Ning Wushuang said sorry to Ningxue and nodded, and then asked the man excitedly.
"This...this, I think...should be...probably...dead!" Seeing the woman so excited, the man thought that Cheng Yu was her sweetheart. He was jealous of Cheng Yu and at the same time was afraid of hurting this beauty. The woman said with some hesitation in her heart.
"What should be roughly stated, life is life, death is death, please make it clear!" Seeing Ning Wushuang's nervous look, Ningxue also thought that the two had a close relationship, raised her eyebrows and said dissatisfiedly.
"This...that means death." The man hesitated and then said.
"Dead?" Ning Wushuang didn't know how to describe her mood at this time. Cheng Yu had teased her at the beginning, so she should be happy when she knew he was dead, but now she didn't feel happy at all. Instead, she felt a Indescribable loneliness, even a little uncomfortable.
After Cheng Yu was injured in the battle with Kunlun and left, Ning Wushuang was still worried about them. She didn't expect that he was really fine, but now he was killed by others. I really don't know how to describe this feeling.
"Junior sister, the dead cannot be resurrected, please be more open-minded." Ningxue looked at Ning Wushuang's expressionless face, a little uncertain, so she spoke to comfort her.
"Then tell me what's going on with the water and lotus?" Ningyan quickly changed the subject.
"The thing is like this. At that time, Cheng Yu was knocked down into the swamp by the golden elixir master. The golden elixir master was about to give Cheng Yu another blow, but a very strange thing happened at this moment. He saw purple light in the swamp. Soaring to the sky, it blocked the sword of the master of the golden elixir. But a large whirlpool suddenly appeared in the swamp and sucked Cheng Yu into the swamp, so I said that Cheng Yu should be dead.
How can there be anyone alive in this swamp? What's more, he himself was seriously injured. And when we woke up this morning, the water, the lotus flowers, and even the crocodiles in the swamp had faded. "The man was spitting, talking, and emotional, as if he had experienced it himself.
"So you didn't see Cheng Yu's body?" Ningxue said.
"This... is indeed the case, but this swamp is full of crocodiles. There are not ten thousand but eight thousand corpses in it. How can Cheng Yu survive?" The man thought for a while and said.
"Okay, thank you." After figuring out the situation, Ningyan left with everyone.
"Hey, what a beautiful fairy, she is really my goddess. If I could make her my Taoist companion, how happy I would be. Even if my life is shortened by a few decades, I would be willing to do so." The man looked at Ningyan's beautiful back and said, He shook his head and sighed.
"Pull you down, she is Fairy Ningyan, one of the beautiful fairies in the Flower Fairy Valley. Will she fall in love with you, a casual cultivator with low cultivation level?" At this time, several men came over and teased.
"What? She is Fairy Ningyan from the Flower Fairy Valley. I heard that she is already a master at the Golden Core stage. I didn't expect that she is so approachable." The man's face showed a look of longing again.
——————————————————————
"Junior Sister Wushuang, don't be sad. Since everything has happened, we can only let nature take its course." Along the way, Ningyan saw that Ning Wushuang, who usually talked non-stop, remained silent, so she tried to persuade her. .
"Haha, thank you, senior sister, for making you worry. I'll be fine." Ning Wushuang forced a smile.
"Junior sister, can you tell me about your relationship with her? Is he your sweetheart?" Ningxue saw Wushuang speaking and asked her to make her happy.
"No way, it's just a chance encounter." Ning Wushuang blushed and shook his head.
"Meet by chance? You're lying. Seeing how excited you are, how could it be that we met by chance?"
"Really, I only met him once."
"Have we met once? Did you fall in love at first sight?" Ningxue smiled again.
"No way, he is a big bad guy. I just want to kill her with my own hands." Ning Wushuang was in a much better mood after chatting and joking with her senior sister, as if she had returned to the scene of the fight with Cheng Yu that day.
"Really? The big bad guy? It seems that he has deceived the heart of our beautiful and lovely Junior Sister Wushuang? But I am also curious, how did he get into trouble with the golden elixir master? I admire his courage." Ning. Snow said very curiously.
"He is a man that no one can see through."
