Yan Ji was sitting at the edge of a small lake in a daze, this small lake was the only place with water in this endless black sand, moreover it was a pool of stagnant water.
Because this lake was artificially created, the water in the lake was also condensed out by everyone using a magical technique.
This was the only place where people lived in this black sand, moreover there were at least 30 cultivators living here. Every few years, a few of them would fall, but there would always be new cultivators coming in.
A place without Spiritual Qi, without any vitality was enough to make people go crazy, if there was no sound, then no one would be able to live in a normal state for hundreds of years.
Some of the cultivators who fell into the Blood River gathered together, and established a gathering place. In this place, it was not to resist other monstrous beasts and the like, rather everyone lived together, and talked to each other, at least they could have a spiritual sustenance.
All the cultivators who lived in this area, were relatively rational, and knew that if they relied on themselves to deduce the Array Formations, then they would not be able to deduce anything. Therefore, they chose to live in this place for the rest of their lives, and muddle along. At least compared to falling into madness, it was much better.
Yan Ji's luck was good, she and Ning Cheng had used the same method to enter this place. What was more fortunate for her, was that in less than half a year, she found this place, moreover there was also a Senior Apprentice Sister from the Blue Cloud Academy here. This allowed her to quickly integrate into this small circle, and became one of the rational people in this black sand.
"Junior Apprentice Sister Ji, falling into the Blood River and finding this place, you are already very lucky. Don't think too much about it, maybe one day a genius will fall here, and open the Array Formations here, then we can all go out. You are already at the great circle of the Profound Congealing Realm, first think of a way to advance to the Profound Core Realm, and then slowly wait here. If our lifespan comes to an end, and we still can't go out, then it is also our fate. "A woman wearing a grey robe walked to the side of Yan Ji and sat down, as she slowly persuaded her.
She was the Senior Apprentice Sister Xiang Zhilan that Yan Ji had met here. Since she fell here a hundred years ago, her cultivation had not risen, at that time she was at the Profound Core 2nd Level, and now she was still at the Profound Core 2nd Level.
"Senior Apprentice Sister Lan, when you fell here, did you regret collecting the Blood River Red Lotus?" Yan Ji suddenly asked.
Xiang Zhilan pushed her long hair back a little, as she looked at the pool of stagnant water in front of her, and spoke in a leisurely manner, "It would be impossible to say that I do not regret it, every time I gather the Blood River Red Lotus, there are always a lot of cultivators who fall into this pool. No one knew when the Blood River Tide would rise. Moreover, once one was sucked into the Blood River Whirlpool, it would be very difficult to escape. I think all the cultivators who could enter this place are considered lucky. At the very least, they won't be corroded by the blood river. "
Xiang Zhilan had a gentle temperament, although she had been trapped in this place for more than a hundred years, but she was not anxious at all, as such her appearance did not look old at all. As she spoke till here, she gave a faint smile and spoke, "Junior Apprentice Sister Ji, for you to ask me this question, is it because you regret collecting the Blood River Red Lotus?"
Yan Ji shook her head and spoke, "I did not fall down because I wanted to collect the Blood River Red Lotus. I came down because I wanted to save someone, but in the end I did not manage to save that person, and ended up in this place."
"Also a disciple of our Blue Cloud Academy?" Xiang Zhilan immediately reacted that the person that Yan Ji had saved should be someone from the Blue Cloud Academy, otherwise she would not have taken such a big risk to save that person.
"No, he and I are not very familiar with each other, but, but … …" Yan Ji really could not find the right words to describe her relationship with Ning Cheng.
Xiang Zhilan looked at Yan Ji in a puzzled manner for a good while before she spoke, "Junior Apprentice Sister Ji, you are not very familiar with this person, yet you came up to the Blood River Mountains to save him? Alas, I really do not know what to say to you … … "
"Senior Apprentice Sister Lan, it is really difficult for me to explain to you what is going on. If I have not guessed wrong, after he fell down, he certainly would not have been swept away by the Blood River. There is a 90% chance that he would be in this place, so … … "
Yan Ji had not even finished her words, when Xiang Zhilan asked in a surprised voice, "Junior Apprentice Sister Ji, you are not going to say that you want to look for this person, are you?"
Yan Ji nodded and spoke, "I am going to look for him."
"Are you crazy?" Xiang Zhilan had such a calm temperament, but even she was somewhat speechless as she spoke, "You fell down here because of the other party, it is already a great kindness to him. Do you still want to look for him? Looking for a person that you are not familiar with? Do you know that this place is boundless, even if you walked for a lifetime, you would not be able to reach the end? You should have seen some crazy people researching Array Formations, some of them have been researching for hundreds of years, but they are still like this. "
Yan Ji gave a faint smile, "Senior Apprentice Sister Lan, you know that my temperament is different from yours, if I were to stay here and wait for my death, I would really go crazy."
"What kind of person is he?" Xiang Zhilan saw Yan Ji's determination, and somewhat helplessly asked.
Yan Ji thought for a while before she spoke, "It is very difficult for me to think of what kind of person he is, I think that in the Yi Xing Mainland, there are certainly not many people like him. He has saved a lot of people, but there are not many people who are grateful to him. Some people even say that he is a Devil Cultivator, and disdain to associate with him. He has also saved me, but the reason why I admire him, is not because he saved me, I have not even seen what he looks like … … "
"You said that he is a Devil Cultivator?" Xiang Zhilan asked in a surprised voice.
Yan Ji nodded and spoke, "Others say that he is a Devil Cultivator, but I think that he should not be a Devil Cultivator. Even if he is a Devil Cultivator, a person like him is worthy of me saving … … "
Xiang Zhilan thought that since they could not get out of this place, it would be meaningless to talk about Yan Ji again, she sighed and spoke, "That should be a male cultivator, right? Junior Apprentice Sister Ji, for you to treat a male cultivator like this, is it because you like that male cultivator? "
Yan Ji was silent for a long time, before she shook her head and spoke, "No, he had changed his appearance, I have not even seen what he looks like, so there is no reason for me to like him. Besides, I have never thought of liking a person, I still want to be alone and be free. I just admire him, of course, if I can find him here, and live with him for a few hundred years, I think I would not be too lonely. "
Xiang Zhilan did not speak again, she understood the meaning of Yan Ji's words. Falling to the bottom of the Blood River, that kind of torment and unbearable suffering was not something that ordinary people could bear. Even for a quiet and peaceful person like her, she had found herself a temporary Dao Companion. But her Dao Companion had only accompanied her for a few decades, before he suddenly disappeared. She believed that after a long time, Yan Ji would also be like her, looking for a male cultivator to live with.
Originally, she wanted to help Yan Ji introduce another cultivator here, but that cultivator was obviously good to Yan Ji. Moreover, he was also the first person here, there was no one else here whose cultivation could rise, except for him. Not only could he level up in this place, but he could also level up very quickly. When he had first come here, he was only at the Profound Core 1st Level, but now he was already at the Profound Core 9th Level.
Xiang Zhilan also did not think that Yan Ji would want to leave this place.
Yan Ji stood up, and spoke with a smile, "Senior Apprentice Sister Lan, I'm leaving … …"
After saying that, Yan Ji seemed to have thought of something, she pulled off her veil and spoke, "Senior Apprentice Sister Lan, if I do not come back, and you have the opportunity to go out in the future, please tell the Yan Clan, that I have fallen in the Blood River."
Xiang Zhilan stared blankly at Yan Ji's appearance, and only muttered after a good while, "Junior Apprentice Sister Ji, you are unexpectedly so beautiful, I have never seen a woman more beautiful than you … …"
"Junior Apprentice Sister Lan, Junior Apprentice Sister Ji, you are all here aah, my Spiritual Grass Garden has cultivated some new Spiritual Fruits, I would like to invite all of you to come and have a taste." Along with the voice, a man with a medium stature strode over.
This man and the somewhat pale face of Xiang Zhilan were different, his complexion was rosy, and his tone was filled with a strong self-confidence, it was as if he did not have even half a shred of being confined at the bottom of the Blood River.
"Greetings Senior Apprentice Brother Yushan." Xiang Zhilan and Yan Ji quickly bowed in salute.
This person was called Feng Yushan, and was the male cultivator that Xiang Zhilan wanted to matchmake with Yan Ji. Feng Yushan was also one of the people in their group, and was the strongest, or at least one of the leaders. However, Feng Yushan had a good personality, and rarely used his power to oppress people, moreover he was especially good to her.
"Junior Apprentice Sister Ji, you … …" Feng Yushan was even more stunned as he stared at Yan Ji's face, he had never seen such a beautiful woman. Previously when he saw Yan Ji's perfect figure wrapped in clothes, he knew that Yan Ji would definitely not be ugly, but he had never thought that Yan Ji would unexpectedly be beautiful to such an extent.
At this moment, he already knew that the person he liked had finally appeared. Yan Ji was his best Dao Companion, no one would be able to snatch Yan Ji away from his side.
"Senior Apprentice Brother Yushan, Senior Apprentice Sister Lan, I'll be taking my leave, I hope to see you again … …" Yan Ji quickly bowed once again, and turned around to leave.
"You can't go." Feng Yushan almost blurted out.
But Yan Ji did not hear Feng Yushan's words at all, as she stared blankly at a distant figure in ragged clothes, with messy hair, who was slowly moving forward unsteadily, suddenly the tip of her nose turned sour.
