C73 Heavy Losses
Shui Hui couldn't help but change her expression!
Although she had been in Dongzhou College for many years and was only a short distance away from Boundless Forest, this forbidden place in the Boundless Forest had long been heard by everyone, but the scene of the student in front of her disappearing into thin air after a shrill cry. It still gave Shui Hui a huge shock!
That student was already a Chakra Stage Cultivating Warrior, but he didn't even have the strength to resist. Just like that, his body twisted and disappeared in front of everyone. Before he disappeared, a look of horror and ferociousness appeared on that student's face. Shui Hui couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.
Boundless Forbidden Land was indeed a forbidden place for living people!
Shui Hui's mood instantly became even worse because... She could have been like the Great Elder and the other elders, waiting on the cliff for the students to collect the Blue Fire and go up. After that, she only needed to wait for the credit to be distributed.
But all of this was ruined by that little slut's hands!
In fact, Shui Hui had never thought that Zhu Ziqiao would actually be chosen by the Myriad Sword Sect's Cheng Qinluo. When she found out that Zhu Ziqiao was a genius with a dark blue affinity for spiritual energy, she was immediately moved. However, she knew very well that she actually didn't have the ability to cultivate Zhu Ziqiao. In fact, she was afraid that in a few years, Zhu Ziqiao's Cultivation Level would surpass hers.
Shui Hui's true goal was to snatch it before the other elders. She wanted to establish the status of master and disciple with Zhu Ziqiao. This way, in the future, no matter if Zhu Ziqiao was chosen by the major figures of Cultivation Realm. She could become the dao companion of some big figure or giant, or... Zhu Ziqiao had cultivated herself into a big figure, and as Zhu Ziqiao's enlightened master, she might even reach the sky in a single bound.
However, all of this had now turned into bubbles. The bubble of that beautiful dream had been shattered by Zhu Ziqiao's leap!
Even she herself had been hated by Cheng Qinluo because of this, and had been sent to Boundless Forbidden Land!
Shui Hui almost wanted to vomit blood. Her heart was filled with hatred!
"Little slut, wait and see, after I collect the Blue Fire..." She secretly snorted in her heart.
"Seventh Elder, what should we do next?" One. A slightly older student carefully asked.
"What should we do? Of course, they had to pay a price in order to acquire the rare treasure. Otherwise, what right do you have to obtain the rare artifacts? You should feel fortunate that this place was within the range of the Blue Fires's eruption. The wild beasts and Demonic Beast here had all escaped. Otherwise... It won't be as simple as just one person disappearing! "
Shui Hui's face was gloomy as she shouted," Everyone be careful. Try to walk forward. According to the skills you have learned in the academy, find the core source of the Blue Fire as soon as possible! "
Without needing her to say anything, all of the students did not dare to be the slightest bit careless.
Some people were silently cursing in their hearts. Even if they obtained the Blue Fire, they would not be able to obtain even a wisp of flame. Being able to obtain some rewards was already extremely fortunate.
However, thinking about the pill that they dreamed of, or some other cultivation resources, these students secretly encouraged themselves. They endured the fear in their hearts and carefully walked forward.
Shui Hui's face was gloomy. She arranged for people to mark the dangerous place just now and followed in the middle of the crowd.
"Ah -"
Suddenly, there was another scream.
A student was walking when he suddenly stepped into the air. It was as if he had been cut in half by a blade in the air, and blood was flowing everywhere.
Everyone who saw this scene couldn't help but feel their scalps go numb. Their faces turned pale, and they suddenly stopped in their tracks.
Shui Hui, who was standing in the middle of the crowd, could not help but feel her heart beat wildly. Her face slightly changed but she shouted loudly, "Continue walking, be careful."
The students could only endure the fear in their hearts and walk forward, trembling with fear.
In the next two hours, more than ten people died out of thin air. Some stepped into the air and instantly disappeared without a trace. Some of them accidentally bumped into a spatial rift and were directly torn apart by the terrifying intertwining space. They died on the spot.
When the group of people arrived at the edge of the pond and saw the Blue Fire on a rock in the middle of the pond, many of them heaved a sigh of relief. Their bodies went limp, and they collapsed to the ground as if their strength had been drained.
Shui Hui also secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The journey was filled with danger. It was really too soul-stirring. No one knew where the danger was. Whether it was the spatial cracks, the chaotic Power Rule, or the spatial turbulence... With their Cultivation Level, they couldn't sense it at all, nor could they see it with their naked eyes.
Unless one had reached the Core Sea Stage and cultivated the spiritual sense, only then would one be able to sense the danger.
However, the cultivator was severely suppressed here. Shui Hui felt that not only was the Spirit Power in her body being greatly suppressed, but the spiritual sense was also unable to be used.
It was not surprising that this place was called a forbidden area.
However, it was fortunate that they had finally arrived here and discovered the Blue Fire.
Shui Hui's eyes flashed with a trace of eagerness and greed as she looked at the flickering blue-green flame. If she could obtain and refine this Blue Fire, even if she was not an alchemist. It could be used to forge weapons, whether it was an alchemist or an Artifact-refining Master. As for this kind of Heaven-earth Genuine Fire... It's all a dream.
"Ah!"
All of a sudden, a horrified scream could be heard, "My hand..."
In the next moment, this person's voice stopped abruptly.
A student could be seen squatting beside the pond. One of his hands reached into the pond and a layer of ice appeared on his body like a statue. Even the terrified expression on his face could be clearly seen.
This time, everyone who was standing by the pond was incomparably shocked. They hurriedly retreated, but after a moment of panic, someone once again crashed into the turbulent flow of space, disappearing into thin air, or dying on the spot!
Panic spread, and all the students became restless. The crowd became crowded, and screams of fear and alarm rose and fell one after another.
Shui Hui, who was standing in the middle of the crowd, was shocked. They had just arrived at the edge of the pond. They still did not know how many dangerous places there were here. If it continued to be crowded like this... Not to mention these students, even she was afraid that she would be squeezed to the point of being unable to control her body. At that time, she might even crash into the turbulent flow of space.
Thinking of this, Shui Hui steeled her heart and pulled out her sharp sword to suddenly slash out.
"Puff! Pu! "
The two students closest to Shui Hui were instantly chopped to death by her. She sternly shouted, "All stand where you are. If anyone dares to move again, this elder will immediately kill them!"
Her voice contained Spirit Power, and it was as loud as thunder. It immediately shocked these restless and panic-stricken students.
Seeing that no one dared to move again, Shui Hui said coldly, "Mark all the dangerous places that you have discovered. The rest of you, follow the route that you have detected. Do not easily touch the pond."
Under Shui Hui's strict supervision, these students did not dare to make any more movements. They carefully marked the few dangerous places just now. Only then did they suppress the panic in their hearts and slowly returned to the side of the pond.
But this time, no one dared to touch the pond again. They did not even dare to get too close to the pond. Shui Hui strictly urged them several times but none of the students dared to go forward.
Shui Hui saw this and secretly hated in her heart. But she could not kill these students. She could only coldly snort and slowly come to the side of the pool to observe.
"This should be a cold pond! No wonder the Blue Fire evolved here. Only such a shocking cold pond could suppress the heat of the Blue Fire and allow it to smoothly evolve!"
Shui Hui observed for a moment and slowly opened her mouth to speak. Her eyes flashed with extraordinary splendor. Her experience and horizons were far from what these students could compare with, so she was very clear. There was actually such a cold pond in the place where the Blue Fire burned. This was definitely very unusual.
Especially since this cold pond was so cold, it was even more unusual that it could freeze a Chakra Stage Cultivating Warrior to death in an instant.
If it was an ordinary cold pond, even if it was connected to the underground river, it would instantly evaporate under the shocking grilling of the Blue Fire.
However, looking at the edge of the cold pond, although there were traces of water dropping, the drop was not large. From this, it could be seen that within this cold pond... There must be something that could suppress the Blue Fire. At least... It wouldn't burn the mountains and rivers into ashes when the Blue Fire exploded.
There might be a treasure underneath the pond!
Shui Hui's eyes flashed with greed. This was the place where the ancient almighty experts fought with the Extraterrestrial Evil Devil. The Blue Fire was the weapon of an almighty expert back then, but a small part of it was left behind here. It had created such a terrifying destructive force. At the bottom of the cold pond... Could there be similar treasures left behind?
If he could refine the Blue Fire, he would be able to suppress the cold of the cold pond. Perhaps, he would be able to obtain the treasure at the bottom of the cold pond.
"Seventh Elder, this cold pond is so terrifying. The Blue Fire is in the center of the cold pond. How can I obtain it?" A student asked carefully.
"If you want to obtain the Blue Fire, you must cross the cold pond!"
Shui Hui's eyes turned and said, "Chop down the nearby trees and easily cross the cold pond!"
She immediately arranged for people to chop down the trees. There were students who were worried about encountering danger again. After a moment of hesitation, Shui Hui said sternly, "A few days ago, when the Blue Fire erupted, you actually only managed to gather a little bit of flame. If it wasn't for your slow movements, why would you need to face these troubles today?!"
Under her fierce gaze, some students could only quickly agree and turn around to carefully chop down the big trees.1
However, when the weapons in the students' hands could only leave a shallow mark on the big tree, and some students with weaker Cultivation Level could not even leave a trace, Shui Hui's face became even darker than the burnt big tree.
Everyone looked at Shui Hui. With a dark face, she said in a deep voice, "Everyone spread out. These trees cannot all be so hard. As long as we can cut down one tree, it will be enough."
Many people hesitated again. If they spread out, it meant that everyone could encounter danger.
However, seeing Shui Hui's gloomy face, they could only brace themselves and do as she said.
At the same time, Lin Cheng, who was hiding behind a big tree in the distance, saw this scene. He frowned slightly, "This b * tch, what a vicious mind!"
