The Blood Helmet Man died, and the giant threw down a lump of rotten meat. Su Yun found a space bag, and started rummaging through it. Very quickly, a key that was emitting a dark green light appeared in his hand.
It was unknown what material the key was made of, but it looked very mysterious. However, the surface of the key had an indescribable fragrance, and it gave off a feeling of vitality.
Overflowing with life? Could it be that it was made by a supreme expert of the profound qi?
Su Yun thought.
Who cares, since he came to the Dark Place, it was more important to find his parents first. With the key, he would have the chance to retrieve the treasure in the future. In any case, with the barrier around him, he was not afraid that someone would take away the treasure inside.
As Su Yun walked, he stared at the Heavenly Seeking Treasure Bell. There were still seven days before he could use the Heavenly Seeking Treasure Bell again, he had to confirm it again. If his parents were still in Linglong Mountain, then they would most likely be here, and if they were not, then he would have to spend a lot of effort to find them.
Along the way, all sorts of strange and dazzling creatures appeared in front of Su Yun's eyes, and all sorts of chaotic battles also appeared one after another. Here, Su Yun had seen the cruelest side of human nature, and also the most tragic side.
It was hard to imagine that the Wanhua Realm above was filled with truth, kindness, and beauty, filled with harmony and the radiance of humanity, while the Purgatory below was such a terrifying place.
Was this the so-called yin and yang, yin and yang?
In order to avoid fighting with those powerful vicious beasts, Su Yun would choose to avoid fighting whenever he saw a vicious beast or a person with a strong cultivation, and try his best to take a detour.
This continued for a few days, and Su Yun felt that he had almost forgotten where he was.
Ding ling!
Just as Su Yun was stepping on the pitch black and ice-cold ground, he continued to move forward, waves of strange bells rang out in front of him.
He frowned and scanned the area in front of him, only to see that it was empty. There was nothing there.
No one? Was it just my imagination?
Su Yun thought, but he still slowed down his walking speed, and became more cautious.
After walking for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a small river appeared in Su Yun's line of sight. The Dark Place was dark, and the water in the small river was also pitch black. What Su Yun was concerned about was that this was a stream of water, but he could see corpses floating past the surface of the river.
"You seem to be looking for something?"
Just as Su Yun was sizing up the river, a voice came out from the other side.
Su Yun tensed up, he immediately retreated and pulled out his sword.
On the other side of the river was a skinny old man with a skeleton walking stick. The old man was dressed in tattered linen clothes with a bell hanging on his waist. His bean-sized eyes were looking up and down at Su Yun.
Although the old man looked very thin and weak, Su Yun did not dare underestimate him. Even though they were so close, he could not sense even the slightest bit of profound qi from the old man …
His cultivation was probably extremely terrifying, and he was very different from the people he had met before!
"Who are you?"
Su Yun asked cautiously.
"I'm just a passerby." The old man smiled.
"Since we're passers-by, let's go our separate ways. Why did you stop to talk to me?"
"I just saw that you seemed to have something to do, so I stopped to see if I could help you." The old man smiled, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.
Su Yun's mind moved, and asked: "How do you know I have something to do?"
"Your expression tells me that if there's nothing wrong, your expression wouldn't be so unnatural, and your eyes wouldn't be so messy." The old man chuckled, his turbid bean like eyes emitting a strange light.
"Even if I have something to do, what can you help me with?" Su Yun shook his head and said.
"That depends on what you need me to do for you." The old man extended his hand that was like dry firewood, rubbed his fingers at Su Yun, and laughed: "This old man doesn't do anything to kill people, other than that, I can solve anything, there's no mistake in finding me, of course, there's also a fee!"
As he spoke, the old man laughed sinisterly.
After Su Yun heard this, he was stunned for a long time, and only reacted after a while.
This old fellow was a businessman …
He sized up the old man again, then asked: "You said that other than killing people, you can solve everything else? Is that true? "
"This old man has been in the Dark Place for a long time, some of the experts in the Dark Place are quite familiar with me, they gave me a nickname, Old Omnipotent, this old man has his own abilities, knows everything in the world, understands the past and the future, young man, if you don't believe me, this old man can prove it!"
"How do you prove it?"
"Up to you."
The old man laughed, looking extremely confident.
Seeing that, Su Yun thought for a while, and said: "Then do you know what my cultivation is?"
Wearing Long Zhen's wristband, unless there was a magic treasure that specialized in breaking through the concealment of Qi, others would definitely not be able to see through Su Yun's current cultivation.
However, as soon as he said that, the old man waved his hand and said without even thinking: "Third grade of Sky Spirit Master, young man, can't you ask a more difficult question?"
"…"
Su Yun was completely speechless, and also completely shocked.
He never thought that the old man would be able to see through his cultivation level.
Did this old man really have some skills?
It seemed like he couldn't ask too simple questions. If the old man's cultivation was high and he had a magic treasure that could break through Long Zhen's wristband, then this question would be the same as not asking.
He thought for a moment, then directly removed the sword sheath from his waist and stood on the ground. He pointed at the sword sheath and said, "Do you know how many swords are in this sword sheath?"
This question was not simple. Those who did not know anything about the sword sheath did not know how many there were.
This time, the old man knew that he had encountered a difficult problem, he only saw him cross the river and walk towards Su Yun.
Su Yun was slightly vigilant, but seeing that the old man's gaze was focused on the sword sheath, he was slightly relieved. Let's wait and see.
The old man walked to the side of the sword sheath and circled around it. His bean-sized eyes suddenly opened, and after looking carefully, he actually touched it with his withered hand.
Seeing that the old man's originally calm and composed appearance had become a bit hot, Su Yun's face became nervous, he anxiously took out the sword sheath and hung it on his waist, and said vigilantly: "Are you done looking? Do you want me to open it and let you count the swords inside? "
"Count? I'm afraid I can't count it! "
The old man retracted his gaze and shook his head with a helpless smile.
"Oh? "What do you mean?"
Su Yun frowned, he felt that the old man seemed to recognize the Limitless Sword Sheath.
"There are so many swords inside? If I go and count them one by one, wouldn't that be making things difficult for an old man like me? The old man tapped the bone staff with his finger and said with a sinister smile, "Young man, you're too unlucky. I was lucky enough to see this sword case of yours before, so I naturally know how many swords there are in it!"
"You've really seen it before?" Su Yun was shocked.
"That's right, this sword sheath is the sword sheath used by the Limitless Sword Ancestor, it is truly miraculous, I never thought that after so many years, I would actually meet this sword sheath again, could it be that there is some sort of arrangement?" The old man said.
But the current Su Yun was already shocked, he never thought that anyone he met in the Dark Place would recognize the Limitless Sword Ancestor, could it be that the old man had already been to the Wanhua Realm? Where was he now? Was he alive or dead? Where had he been? What cultivation level was he at now?
Su Yun did not understand, and felt more and more confused.
But this time, Su Yun understood, the old man in front of him should be capable, he immediately bowed and said: "This junior has eyes but did not recognize Mount Tai, I have offended you before, please forgive me!"
"Ai ai, there's no need, there's no need, there's no need to be like this, young man, I'm just a merchant, everything I do is just to earn some money to spend, you don't have to be like this, in any case, if you ask for anything later, I will charge you, so you don't have to feel embarrassed." The old man helped Su Yun up and laughed.
It was really realistic.
Su Yun thought, but he did not stand on ceremony, and said: "Since senior has said so, then junior will not stand on ceremony, may I ask senior, do you know the whereabouts of junior's parents?"
"What are your parents' names?"
The old man asked.
"Junior's father, Su Shentian, and mother, Shen Xuexue, have left junior for many years. Junior thought that his parents had already died, but later on, someone told me that his parents were still alive, so I came out to look for the whereabouts of the two elders, hoping to reunite with them!"
Su Yun cupped his fists and said, his eyes filled with desire, he truly hoped that the old man would be able to tell him the whereabouts of his parents, although the Heavenly Seeking Treasure Bell was good, but the location given was too vague, even if it was a Linglong Mountain, it was still surprisingly big, he was alone, how long would it take for him to find them?
The old man pondered for a moment, then suddenly took off the big bell hanging from his waist and placed it on the ground. He also squatted down, one hand holding the skeleton staff against the bell, the other pressing down on the ground, he closed his eyes, and his bark-like mouth began to move.
"Leaping heart and bones move the heavens, raising the Sacred Kun, there is no flow of dirty water in the dark of the road, gradually drying up the divine …"
As the awkward words floated out, the skeleton staff in his hand suddenly started to move strangely, following that, the bell on the ground started to tremble, and circle after circle of greyish-white waves of Qi floated out from the bell like ripples, spreading far and wide.
Su Yun stood quietly at the side and watched, he knew that the old man was casting a spell.
However, what kind of spell could have such a miraculous effect? To be able to capture the location of others? Was this old man really that capable? Who was he?
A series of questions shrouded Su Yun's heart like a cloud.
The bell continued to ring, Su Yun peeked through the gap and saw a pair of pitch-black tiny feet, as though there was a little person inside.
The old man muttered to himself, as though he was a Daoist priest, and his expression became more and more solemn.
He suddenly clapped his hands and knocked on the bell, shouting, "Ding!"
The bell stopped ringing, and the greyish-white aura that was being emitted in all directions also stopped. Everything returned to normal.
The old man crawled on the ground and placed his ear on the bell to listen for a while. He nodded repeatedly, then stood up and looked at Su Yun with a face full of smiles.
"Senior, do you have any results?" Su Yun asked.
"Yes."
The old man chuckled.
