"What a strange name."

Su Yu'er couldn't help but murmur.

Seeing Yi Feng walk ahead, Su Yu'er quickly caught up and grabbed his arm.

"Master, you're truly amazing."

Su Yu'er said with admiration.

Yi Feng frowned slightly. Wasn't it just killing a two-headed water monster?

He had killed hundreds of thousands of these things. What was so impressive about that?

Was she trying to get close to him to haggle over prices?

No way!

Yi Feng quickly shook off Su Yu'er.

But Su Yu'er clung to him again.

"Master, are you one of those people my uncles and masters talk about, the kind who pretend to be weak but are actually super strong?" She asked with hopeful, sparkling eyes.

Yi Feng remained silent.

In business, mixing personal feelings would only complicate things.

"Then, Master, can I take a look at that sword you used earlier?" Su Yu'er asked, once again wrapping her arms around Yi Feng's arm.

Again?

No way she's getting close to haggle!

Yi Feng coldly pushed Su Yu'er away. "Miss, please mind your manners. After all, men and women should maintain proper boundaries."

"Master, do you like spirit crystals? I'll give you 100,000 spirit crystals if you let me take a look at your sword, okay?" Su Yu'er said coquettishly.

"It's not about the money, but I'm not that cold-hearted either."

Yi Feng quickly drew the iron sword from his hand.

"Whoosh!"

"It's hard to believe that this sword so effortlessly killed that demon," Su Yu'er said, running her fingers along the blade. Though she couldn't see anything special about it, she felt it was extraordinary.

"By the way, Master, what's the name of this sword?"

Su Yu'er asked.

"Iron Sword."

Yi Feng replied.

"Great name!"

Su Yu'er exclaimed with sparkling eyes, swinging the sword a few times before reluctantly handing it back to Yi Feng.

As they talked, they eventually arrived at a river.

This river was an artificial one built along the edge of the black mist, lined with multiple formations designed to prevent the mist from spreading. It was the work of the three great Daoist sects.

Yi Feng leaped lightly across and stepped into the pitch-black mist.

"Ah!"

Behind him, Su Yu'er let out an excited scream, covering her mouth as she exclaimed, "Master, you're so amazing! You just jumped over like it was nothing."

Yi Feng rolled his eyes.

This girl was way too much of a fanatic.

Couldn't she praise something more realistic? It was just crossing a river.

Her flattery was making him cringe.

"Master, can I come with you?" Su Yu'er asked excitedly. Entering the black mist? Just thinking about it made her heart race.

If she could tell others about this, it would be so cool.

"Sure, come over. It's just a river," Yi Feng said, exasperated.

Hearing this, Su Yu'er felt even more admiration for Yi Feng.

Without a second thought, she leaped lightly across the river as well.

Her boldness truly showed her inexperience.

For an ordinary person, crossing this river would be unthinkable. Even a slight touch of the black mist would bring irreversible consequences.

The two of them walked into the black mist.

To Yi Feng, crossing the river didn't make much of a difference. It was just a bit quieter.

But to Su Yu'er, it was an endless darkness where she couldn't even see her own hand. So she clung tightly to Yi Feng's arm, following him step by step.

Yet her face was filled with excitement, her heart racing.

Walking in the black mist!

Just look at this.

This was what a real trial should be like.

What were those disciples doing, squatting in the Demon Plains hunting demons? This young lady had already made it to the demons' lair.

Who could compare?

But since she couldn't see, she couldn't help but ask, "Master, I can't see anything. How do you see so clearly?"

"Oh, it's just a bit dark."

Yi Feng glanced at the sky. It was a little dim, but not so dark that he couldn't see.

Do cultivators suffer from night blindness too?

With a swish.

A torch appeared in Yi Feng's hand, instantly dispersing the black mist and illuminating their surroundings.

Su Yu'er regained her sight and gasped in amazement.

She had never heard of anything that could illuminate and even dispel the black mist.

Yet Yi Feng had casually pulled out something that could do just that. He was truly incredible.

"Master, what is this treasure in your hand? It's so amazing," Su Yu'er said excitedly, her heart pounding.

"A torch."

Yi Feng replied.

"A torch? Just the name sounds powerful," Su Yu'er said excitedly. "It must be incredibly valuable, right?"

"Mm."

Yi Feng nodded.

This torch wasn't cheap. It was made from high-quality materials.

Each torch cost a full spirit crystal!

The two of them continued walking through the black mist. After a while, they finally arrived at the Floating Corpse Valley, which had long been filled and piled into a small mountain of corpses.

"This place has lower-level monsters, so I don't come here often. I roughly estimate there are about seven to eight hundred thousand here," Yi Feng said casually.

There was no response.

He turned to look at the girl and found her standing there with her mouth agape, completely stunned.

"Clang!"

Su Yu'er's sword fell to the ground.

She turned her head to look at Yi Feng. "Master, this is what you call 'not often'?"

"Mm."

Yi Feng nodded seriously, pointing ahead. "There are three more places up ahead. Combined, there should be about three million more."

"Clang!"

The sword she had just picked up fell to the ground again.

"I..."

"I... I..."

Su Yu'er opened her mouth, but her face grew more and more excited.

No wonder the demons had disappeared. They were all here!

Was this what a true master was like?

Manipulating everything effortlessly.

This was the life she aspired to have. Forget those boring trials and being a junior disciple. She wanted to be someone like Yi Feng.
