Immortality Cultivation: I can use my clansmen’s energy and blood to add points

Luo Chen's eyes flashed with excitement and he said, "Then we must go and have a look."

The two of them carefully crossed the lake and arrived at the island.

The light emitted by the crystal fruit shrouded the entire island in a mysterious glow.

Just when they were about to pick crystal fruits, suddenly, there were ripples on the lake surface, and a huge water snake slowly rose from the lake.

Its body shone with blue light, and its eyes revealed a light of wisdom.

"Humans, why did you break into this forbidden land?" the water snake asked in a deep voice.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other and knew that they had met a powerful guardian again this time.

They replied respectfully: "We just came here accidentally, hoping to pick some crystal fruits."

The water snake was silent for a moment, and then said: "The crystal fruit is a sacred object in this swamp. Only those who are truly awe-minded can be recognized by them. If you can pass my test, you can pick the crystal fruit."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang nodded in agreement, knowing that this was a rare opportunity.

A hint of approval flashed in the water snake's eyes, and it slowly swam to the lake, signaling Luo Chen and Qingshuang to follow.

It led them to a flat boulder at the edge of the lake, carved with some ancient runes.

"This is a trial place in the swamp. You must pass three levels to prove that your soul is pure and your strength is sufficient." The water snake's voice echoed on the lake.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other, knowing that this was a test as well as an opportunity.

They took a deep breath and prepared to take on the challenge.

The first level is a trial of the soul. The water snake asked them to sit on the boulder, close their eyes, completely open their hearts, and accept the test from the swamp. Luo Chen and Qing Shuang sat down as instructed. They felt a gentle force begin to penetrate their consciousness, trying to explore the depths of their hearts.

Luochen first felt a series of illusions. He saw his past failures and setbacks, but his will was firm and was not shaken by these illusions. Qingshuang saw her longing for the future and longing for her loved ones, but she also remained calm and was not swayed by these emotions.

After a period of testing, the water snake's voice sounded again: "Your hearts are pure enough to pass the first level."

The second level is a test of strength. The water snake asked them to show their strength and prove themselves through battle.

Luochen and Qingshuang faced two opponents transformed by water snakes respectively, and they had to fight with all their strength.

Luo Chen faced a warrior made of water. It moved quickly and attacked quickly.

Luochen swung his sword and dealt with it. He used his speed and sword skills to cleverly avoid attacks and look for opportunities to counterattack.

Qingshuang faced a giant beast made of mud. It was extremely powerful and every attack carried huge destructive power.

Qingshuang used light skills and flexible body skills to avoid the giant beast's attacks, while using her weapons to fight back.

After a fierce battle, both Luochen and Qingshuang successfully defeated their opponents.

The water snake nodded with satisfaction and said, "You are strong enough to pass the second level."

The last level is a test of wisdom.

The Water Snake demands that they unlock ancient runes on the boulders that represent the secrets and power of the swamp.

Luochen and Qingshuang observed the runes carefully, and they found that these runes seemed to be related to the symbols they had encountered in the swamp before.

They began to try to combine these symbols and look for patterns.

After some thinking and experimenting, they finally found the right combination.

The runes began to glow, and strange ripples appeared on the lake surface.

The water snake said with satisfaction: "You are smart enough to unlock the secrets of the swamp and pass the third level."

With the last level passed, the water snake allowed Luochen and Qingshuang to pick crystal fruits.

They carefully picked the fruit and felt the powerful power contained in it.

"You have proven your worth, and the crystal fruit will give you power." The water snake said.

Luochen and Qingshuang bowed gratefully to the water snake, and then left the island with the crystal fruit.

They knew that this adventure not only allowed them to obtain precious fruits, but more importantly, they passed the test of mind, strength and wisdom and became stronger beings.

"Opportunity is something that only those who are destined to get it get!"

Luo Chen couldn't help but sigh.

Luochen and Qingshuang continued walking along the path with the crystal fruit.

Their hearts are full of anticipation and excitement, but at the same time they are also vigilant. The mystery and danger of this swamp are something they cannot ignore.

They passed through dense vegetation, crossed several creeks, and finally came to an open clearing.

In the center of the open space stands an ancient stone tablet, which is covered with traces of time.

The stone tablet seems to record ancient legends about this swamp, but the text has long been blurred and difficult to read.

Luo Chen stepped forward and gently touched the stone tablet with his hand, trying to feel the mystery inside it.

Suddenly, he felt a weak vibration coming from the stone tablet, and then, the surrounding scene began to change.

The grass and trees in the clearing began to grow rapidly, as if time was passing faster. Luochen and Qingshuang looked at all this in surprise, and they realized that this might be a time enchantment.

"Be careful, there may be unknown dangers hidden here." Qingshuang reminded.

Luochen nodded, and they clenched their weapons, preparing to deal with any situation that might arise.

At this moment, the ground suddenly cracked, and a huge tentacle stretched out from the ground and headed straight for Luochen.

Luochen quickly dodged, but more tentacles came one after another, and the entire open space seemed to turn into a living monster.

"Another monster comes!" Qingshuang shouted loudly.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang fought side by side. They used their agile movements and superb martial arts to deal with the tentacles.

Luo Chen's swordsmanship was as smooth as clouds and water, and he cut off the tentacles accurately with every swing.

Qingshuang was like a dexterous swallow, shuttling between the tentacles, and her weapon was like her shadow, following closely behind to deliver a fatal blow.

The battle lasted for a long time, and both Luo Chen and Qing Shuang felt tired, but their will became stronger and stronger.

Finally, with perfect cooperation, they found the source of the tentacles, a huge underground creature.

Luo Chen used all his strength to pierce the sword into its body, while Qingshuang used her weapon to cut off its lifeline.

As the creatures died, the time barrier began to collapse, and the surrounding scene gradually returned to normal.

Luochen and Qingshuang gasped, knowing that this victory was hard-won.

"Let's move on. There must be more secrets waiting for us to discover in this swamp." Luochen said.

Qingshuang nodded, they gathered their spirits and continued walking along the path.

Soon they came to the entrance of a huge cave.

There was a cool breeze coming from the cave, and it seemed that some unknown creature was hidden.

Luochen and Qingshuang lit the torches and walked into the cave cautiously.

The interior of the cave is spacious and deep, and the walls are covered with glowing ores, illuminating the path forward.

They followed the passage deeper into the cave and discovered a huge underground lake.

There was a huge stone floating in the middle of the lake, and a white-haired old man was sitting on it.

The old man closed his eyes and seemed to be meditating.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other, and they knew that this old man was anything but ordinary.

"Dear elder, we are travelers who accidentally broke into this place. I wonder if you can guide us?" Luo Chen asked respectfully.

The old man slowly opened his eyes, a deep light flashing in his eyes.

"You have passed the test of the swamp and came here. I am the guardian of this swamp. You can call me 'Zeling'."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang saluted respectfully again. They knew that the old man in front of them had endless wisdom and power.

Ze Ling smiled and said: "Your hearts are pure, your strength is strong, and your wisdom is extraordinary. The secrets in the swamp have been opened to you. Now I will give you the final gift."

Ze Ling stood up from the stone and an ancient book appeared in his hand.

"This is the "Swamp Codex". It records all the secrets and powers of this swamp. You can learn from it how to better use the power of nature."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang took over the "Swamp Secret Book" and felt a powerful force pouring into their bodies.

They know that this is not just a book, but also a legacy and a responsibility.

"Thank you, Zeling.

Ze Ling nodded, his figure gradually became blurred, and finally disappeared into the cave.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang left the cave with the "Swamp Secret Book".

When the swamp land was explored here, all the opportunities were basically taken away by Luo Chen and Qing Shuang.

Even if there is still a small chance left.

Probably not as good as the great opportunities they have received.

"I also discovered before that there was an empty city not far from here."

"Should we go take a look?"

Luochen and Qingshuang stood at the exit of the cave, looking at the city shrouded in fog in the distance.

They know that although most of the opportunities in the swamp have been obtained by them, there may still be unknown opportunities and challenges hidden in that city.

"Let's go take a look. There's nothing to do anyway." Luo Chen suggested.

Qingshuang nodded, she was always curious about unknown things.

The two packed their bags and headed towards the city.

As they got closer, the outline of the city became clearer and clearer.

This is an ancient city with walls made of huge stones covered with moss and vines.

The city gate was closed, and it seemed that no one had gone in or out for a long time.

But Luo Chen and Qing Shuang could feel that this city was not a dead city, it exuded an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

They walked around the city wall and finally found a path covered by vines in a hidden corner.

Carefully pushing aside the vines, they found a door that was ajar.

Behind the door is a dark passage, and there seems to be a faint light coming from the end of the passage.

Luochen and Qingshuang looked at each other, nodded to each other, and then walked into the passage one after another.

As they went deeper, the passage gradually became wider, and the walls were inlaid with glowing ores, illuminating the way forward.

They came to a huge underground space that seemed to be an abandoned market.

There are various stalls scattered around, with various strange items on them. Some are decayed, while others still exude a faint luster.

Luochen and Qingshuang walked carefully among these stalls, knowing that these items may contain unknown secrets.

Suddenly, Qingshuang's eyes were attracted by a dilapidated wooden box on a stall.

She walked forward and gently opened the wooden box. Inside lay a crystal.

The crystal seemed to contain some kind of power, which made Qingshuang feel inexplicably intimate.

"Luochen, look at this." Qingshuang called softly.

Luochen came over and carefully observed the crystal.

He felt a strong resonance, as if the crystal had some kind of fateful connection with him.

"This crystal contains powerful power, perhaps it complements our power." Luochen said.

Qingshuang nodded, she knew that Luochen's feelings were rarely wrong.

The two decided to take the crystal away, perhaps one day in the future, it would play an unexpected role.

Continuing to explore this underground market, Luochen and Qingshuang found some ancient scrolls and strange potions.

They carefully collected these items, and their hearts were full of awe of the unknown.

Just then, they heard a slight sound of footsteps.

"There are people?"

"Isn't this an empty city?"

Luochen had such doubts in his heart.

The two quickly hid behind a stall and watched the surroundings vigilantly.

Soon, a figure walked out of the darkness. It was a mysterious man in a black robe.

The mysterious man did not seem to notice the presence of Luo Chen and Qing Shuang. He walked straight to a corner, took out an item from a pile of debris, and then hurried away.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other. They decided to follow the mysterious man to see what he was looking for.

They followed the mysterious man carefully, passed through dark passages, and finally came to a huge underground hall.

In the center of the hall was a huge stone platform, inlaid with various strange gems.

The mysterious man walked to the stone platform and placed the item in his hand in the groove of the stone platform.

In an instant, the whole hall lit up with dazzling light, and the gems on the stone platform began to rotate, making pleasant music.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at this scene in surprise. They realized that this stone platform might be an ancient mechanism, and the mysterious man seemed to know how to activate it.

The mysterious man turned around and looked directly at the hiding place of Luo Chen and Qing Shuang.

There was a hint of cunning in his eyes, as if he had known of their existence.

"You guys followed closely..." the mysterious man said, with a hint of teasing in his voice.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang walked out of their hiding place. They knew that the following conversation might reveal more secrets of this underground world.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Luo Chen asked.
