as her jade arm lifted, the wide sleeve of her light blue robe slid down to her elbow, revealing a smooth, lotus-white forearm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her skin was truly like congealed fat, making one’s spirit daze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ahead lies a vast swamp, filled with many unknown venomous snakes!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Their venom is extremely potent, and they move in swarms!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Younger Brother, if you reach that swamp, remember not to step into it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just go around it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“One of our Tianfu Mountain disciples was injured there just now and remains unconscious from the poison!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng felt warmth in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had not expected a stranger to kindly warn him of danger at such a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the cultivation world, this was truly rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet there was another possibility—that the swamp concealed some treasure or secret, and this woman wished to keep it hidden, so she deliberately told him to avoid it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his current wisdom, He Pingsheng could not tell which was true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he preferred to believe it was the former.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Senior Sister,” He Pingsheng said again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman replied, “No need to thank me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, she flipped over and mounted her paper crane, ready to soar into the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am He Pingsheng of Grand Void Gate!” He Pingsheng’s face turned even redder; he swallowed hard, as if summoning all his courage, and asked: “May I ask your name, Senior Sister?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman, swaying slightly atop the crane, smiled and studied him for two moments: “Qiao.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qiao Huizhu!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, her yellow paper crane shot skyward, instantly shrinking to a tiny dot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only a lingering fragrance remained, drifting through the air before slowly fading.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng took a deep breath and continued leaping forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t because he lacked a paper crane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the contrary, he had several, all top-grade ones capable of twelve uses each.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked close to the ground because doing so allowed him to better spot heavenly treasures along the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had already collected quite a few by now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About two incense sticks later, He Pingsheng arrived beside a vast swamp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is this it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing on the grass beside the swamp, He Pingsheng frowned as he stared ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The swamp the Tianfu Mountain senior sister mentioned must be this one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He believed she had not lied to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet he had no intention of following her advice to avoid it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to enter and see if he could kill some venomous snakes and extract their venom cores.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He needed them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he needed them in large quantities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, even if bitten, he wouldn’t be poisoned—come on!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shhh…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A yellow paper crane flew through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon it sat a male disciple dressed in moon-white robes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If He Pingsheng saw him, he would recognize him as a disciple of Grand Void Gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not just any disciple—he was from Hongde Courtyard of Xiuzhu Peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man’s name was Yang Xu, ranked below Linglong in Hongde Courtyard, with a cultivation base of Qi Refining Stage Ten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since entering the secret realm, he had never once searched for heavenly treasures;
