As night falls, stars are everywhere, and silver shines shine in the world.

There is a place about four or five miles away from the valley where Zhang Heng was smashed. There is a clear river flowing in the water. Under the reflection of the moonlight, you can see a person's reflection in the water.

Zhao Rui stared at the sluggish snow lotus in his hand, about the size of a fist, and was crystal clear and white all over, like a spotless exquisite work of art.

If Zhang Heng was present, he would find that such a snow lotus was almost the same as the snow lotus that Ning Xuerong transformed in his own storage bag.

The only difference is that this snow lotus seems to be even more depressed, as if it may wither and die at any time.

Before Zhao Rui could react from the strange scene just now, he watched Luo Ningxue turn into a snow lotus beside him. His expression was even more shocked than Zhang Heng at the beginning.

"What should I do? Senior Sister Luo actually turned into a snow lotus, as if she was chased by Senior Brother Tang to such a thing."

Zhao Rui was in a mess. Unlike Zhang Heng, he was simple and kind by nature.

Moreover, he walked out of a certain isolated place, and also fell in love with the elegant fairy Luo, who was as elegant as an immortal, otherwise he would not have had to worry about Li Crazy.

Unlike Zhang Heng, he loved the snow lotus transformed by Luo Ningxue even more, and wished he could use his life to save the last glimmer of life of this snow lotus.

He walked along the river aimlessly for a while, and a light appeared in front of him.

Zhao Rui was delighted, as if he saw a light guiding the way on the dark road.

He walked quickly in that direction, and soon a thatched hut appeared in front of him.

There is nothing special about this thatched hut. If you have to find out any characteristics, you can only be that such a hut would be built into such a remote canyon.

There are lights that are looming in the hut, and I think there will definitely be someone inside.

"Is anyone?" Zhao Rui carefully cared for the snow lotus in his hand and shouted inside.

No reaction.

"Is there really no one? Then I'll come in." Zhao Rui pushed open the door of the hut.

There is a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp in the hut. There is nothing else except that.

On the wooden flat bed, there was a hazy figure.

Zhao Rui was shocked. Unexpectedly, there was another person here. When he opened his eyes carefully, he could only tell that the other party seemed to be an old man over 60 years old.

In addition, no matter how Zhao Rui looked with his eyes or observed with spiritual eye technique, he could only see the other party's looming outline.

Invisibly, it seemed that there was some unknown force that made Zhao Rui unable to see the other person's specific appearance.

"Old man, I'm disturbing." Zhao Rui is not a fool either. Of course, he would not think that an old man he met in such a place would be an ordinary mortal.

Perhaps the other party is a great master hidden in the world.

Thinking of this, Zhao Rui's eyes at the old man became even more intense. He hoped that the other party was a hidden master, so that the snow lotus in his hand would be saved.

The old man looked up slightly, and his eyes that seemed to be unsightly glanced at Zhao Rui. An old and powerless voice came over: "Please sit down, an old man like me has been in this world for too long. It seems that not long ago, oh, about 100,000 years ago, I also came to my last friend here... To be honest, I am tired of this world, but I don't want to leave here... But it's a fate that you can meet me here, so let's chat with me for a while..."

Zhao Rui didn't know much about the old man's words and did not get much information from the other person's words. However, he was sure that the other person was a hidden master. He put it on the chair and smiled: "Old man, since you have lived for so many years, you must have supreme magical powers."

The old man shook his head: "Actually, I have no magic power in my body... my body is completely disabled..."

"How could it be? If you don't have a little mana, how could you have lived here for so many years?"

The old man coughed slightly and pointed at the distant mountain outside the door with his hand: "Look, isn't the mountain opposite not containing any magic power? According to my estimate, this mountain has lived for at least tens of millions of years..."

Zhao Rui disagreed: "How can you say that? This mountain is a lifeless dead object, so it can survive for so long."

The old man smiled slightly and his eyes fell on the snow lotus in Zhao Rui's hand: "Is this snow lotus in your hand also a dead thing? According to my estimate, this snow lotus has survived at least for more than 100,000 years."

When Zhao Rui heard the old man mention the snow lotus in his hand, his heart suddenly jumped. He remembered the purpose of his coming here and said anxiously: "Old man, I beg you. If you want to save her, she will be out of reach!"

The old man said slowly: "She has about one hour of life, and she should have used some secret techniques beyond the scope of the body's tolerance. After an hour, she will become an ordinary snow lotus. Even if she is cultivated, she will have only a little hope of restoring her body after tens of thousands of years."

Seeing that the old man easily "guessed" Luo Ningxue's cause, Zhao Rui showed joy on his face: "Then please save her."

The old man said indifferently: "Although I can barely save her life at this moment, I will definitely not be able to take action for her."

Zhao Rui said in confusion: "Since you can save him, why not save her? If you have any requests, as long as I can do it, I will never refuse!"

The old man said slowly without any wavering: "If I save her, it is equivalent to opposing an invincible existence, and he will definitely pay a heavy price at that time."

"Are you saving someone or going against whom? Who is that person?" Zhao Rui's eyes gradually showed a little impatient. After a while, Luo Ningxue would completely disappear from this world.

The old man pointed his finger at the sky outside the house and said casually: "It's it."

"Sky? Sky?" Zhao Rui was puzzled.

The old man nodded and said, "Yes, it's it. This snow lotus spirit develops naturally and should change back to its original form. If I interfere with this development trajectory, it will cause unpredictable results to the causal cycle between the entire world, which is equivalent to breaking the order of this world, and also against the way of heaven."

When Zhao Rui heard this, he looked at the sluggish snow lotus in his hand and his anger suddenly came up: "You fart! She was forced to be like this. How can she be said to be developed naturally?"

The old man said tepidly: "Everything that happens in this world is the result of natural development. Even if the entire Dongyun continent turns into nothingness in an instant, there is nothing strange. The so-called heaven and earth are unkind and treat all things as straw dogs. I forgot who said this sentence, but it still makes sense..."

Zhao Rui stared at the old man in anger and cursed: "Are you so-called hidden masters so cruel and ruthless? Saving someone is arguing against the way of heaven, and you can only watch the end of a life."

"There is prosperity and decline, life and death, and there is cause and effect..." the old man murmured in a low voice.

"Go to die!" Zhao Rui finally couldn't help it. He stretched out his hand and a fire bomb hit the old man.

With a "tent" sound, the old man's body caught fire, which surprised Zhao Rui.

The old man said calmly: "If there is fire, let it burn..."

After a while, the old man's whole body was burning, but he still looked at Zhao Rui calmly, as if life and death had no effect on him.

Zhao Rui was shocked by the old man's still peaceful appearance when he was burning in the fire. He watched the old man's body and clothes instantly turn into ashes.

"Oh my God, I killed him..." Zhao Rui suddenly felt regretful. He originally thought that the other party was an alien, and this small fireball should not hurt the other party.

Suddenly, Zhao Rui seemed to remember something, and pounded his head with his hand a few times: "I burned him to death, who will save Senior Sister Luo?"

However, at this moment, Zhao Rui found that the pile of ashes in front of him were instantly gathering together. After a while, the seemingly disabled old man appeared in front of him again.

"You are not dead?" Zhao Rui looked at him in disbelief, and then showed a look of surprise.

The old man nodded and said, "I have died once just now, but I have just come back to life."

"Please save her life, okay? I'll give you all my things."

Zhao Rui put his storage bag on the table, and seemed to remember something again, and took out an ordinary necklace from his chest: "This is something I have worn since I was born, and I will give it to you."

The old man looked at him with these things calmly, as if nothing in this world could touch him.

However, just after he saw the necklace that Zhao Rui took out from his chest, his expression changed slightly.

As soon as he stretched out his hand, the necklace appeared in his hand, and it looked like the necklace disappeared out of thin air and then appeared in his hand.

Zhao Rui was also shocked by the old man's magical powers, but he didn't dare to say anything more.

The old man looked at the necklace, sighed slightly, and asked with a complicated expression: "Is your surname Zhao?"

Zhao Rui said in surprise: "How do you know?"

The old man loosened his hand and the necklace actually returned to Zhao Rui's chest out of thin air.

"Okay, since your surname is Zhao and you also have this necklace in your hand, I will make an exception." The old man actually agreed to him so simply.

Zhao Rui felt a very unreal feeling and asked in disbelief: "Do you really mean it?"

Without saying a word, the old man stretched out his hand and the snow lotus in Zhao Rui's hand drifted into the void.

Afterwards, the old man used his hands and did not see any fluctuations of spiritual energy. The originally sluggish snow lotus regained its vitality.

A white light flashed, and the next moment, Xuelian turned into a Luo Ningxue wearing a snow-white skirt, like a fairy falling into dust.

Zhao Rui was stunned. Such magical powers were indeed extremely despicable!

Could he be the legendary immortal?

"Thank you for your help, senior." Luo Ningxue bowed deeply to the old man.

The old man waved his hand and began to issue an order to expel guests: "You can leave now."

"Yes..." Zhao Rui thanked the old man repeatedly.

Luo Ningxue couldn't help asking: "I wonder if Tang Feng, who had fallen into my secret technique, is he now life or death?"

The old man was slightly surprised: "The Tang Feng you mentioned seems to be no longer in this world. As for the monk who got your secret technique, haha, if it were the past, I would definitely be interested in him..."

Luo Ningxue was very puzzled. As soon as she was about to ask something, she saw the old man waved his hand and the two disappeared in the hut and appeared at a mountain several miles away.

Just as the two disappeared, a thrilling sensation arose in the sky that no one could sense.

A black lightning bolt descended from the sky.

This black lightning seemed to be transparent. It passed through the clouds, through the mountains, and into the huts, as if it came from time and space billions of miles away, but the things it passed through had no effect.

It seems that everything in the world has nothing to do with it.

Finally, the black lightning hit the old man.

With a "sourcing" sound, without any resistance, the old man was hit by black lightning, and his whole body disappeared out of thin air.

Under the night, only the empty hut and the dim light that is about to go out at all times.
