“Who? Who is it? Who is speaking in my mind?”

Liu Chuan felt the voice in his mind and his heart skipped a beat.

“A junior who hasn’t even reached the Divine Soul Realm dares to randomly barge in without knowing anything. Should I say that you aren’t afraid of death, or are you stupid?” That pleasant voice sounded again.

Liu Chuan felt that he had never heard such a pleasant voice in his entire life. Even the sound of nature was nothing compared to this.

However, it was a hurtful remark.

Before he could ask further, he heard the heavenly voice continue speaking, “If you want to live, do as I say. Remember not to take the wrong step.”

“Yes, Senior.” Liu Chuan immediately understood that he had met a senior expert. Thus, he hurriedly replied respectfully.

“Could this be an ancient and mighty figure from the ruins?”

Liu Chuan thought to himself.

“Take another 50 steps forward, then turn right 30 degrees before taking another 30 steps forward. Hey, why are you so stupid? 30 degrees, dummy.”

“Turn left. What are you standing there for? Are you going to stay there?”

“…”

“Dummy, keep taking 100 steps forward…”

Liu Chuan suddenly began to doubt whether this ‘senior’ was really a senior. How could a senior be like this? Furthermore, their voice didn’t make them seem like a senior.

He took his 28th step, 29th step, and the 30th step. This was the last step!

Following the guidance of the voice in his mind, Liu Chuan finally reached the end step by step.

After Liu Chuan took the last step, the black fog around him started to grow thin and dissipate. It was as if he could see the sun again.

He could even hear that when the darkness dissipated, it seemed like it was roaring…

Liu Chuan bowed slightly to the front and thanked the senior. “Thank you for your guidance, senior.”

However, when Liu Chuan looked around, he actually couldn’t find the senior expert who had just guided him.

Meanwhile, Wu Zhixin, who was on his back, had passed out at some point. Liu Chuan called out a few times but she did not wake up. However, he felt that her breathing was stable, so he did not continue to call her. It would be good to let her rest like this.

“Senior, where are you?” Liu Chuan asked respectfully.

“Go straight ahead. Find a small pond and you can see me.”

The ethereal voice sounded in his mind again.

“Yes, Senior,” replied Liu Chuan.

Liu Chuan carried Wu Zhixin on his back and walked forward step by step.

Not long after, Liu Chuan walked to the “small pond”.

“How is this a small pond?” Liu Chuan was speechless as he looked at the boundless body of water in front of him.

The “pond” was dark green in color and sparkled with light. The surface of the water rippled with a delicate fragrance. Meanwhile, the clear surface of the water was like a piece of transparent green glass. There was actually nothing under the surface of the water. There wasn’t even a fish swimming around. In the entire pond, apart from the green lotus floating on the surface of the water, there was nothing else.

The green lotus did not have any vines or branches. Its clear fragrance traveled into the distance, and immortal light radiated from its body.

Liu Chuan helplessly spoke again, “Senior, can you show yourself? I’ve already arrived by this ‘pond’.”

“Dummy, I called you’re dumb, but you’re really dumb. Aren’t I right in front of you?”

The voice of the ‘senior expert’ sounded in his mind again.

“Right in front of me?” Liu Chuan was stunned. “Could it be?”

He turned towards the green lotus and bowed slightly. Liu Chuan probed, “Senior, is that you?”

“At least you’re not too stupid. You’re worthy of being taught.” The voice resounded once more, and the green lotus twisted its ‘body’ in a human manner.

Liu Chuan was speechless.
