nWith the incident that occured, I had enough adrenaline for the day. I went to rest, and was not able to follow through on Liu Man’s suggestion.

nAfter a day, I reached the Black Swamp Forest. This was going to be the first trial of the Sky Heaven’s sect. It also seemed like a lot of others also seemed to be interested in the same trial. There were thousands of people gathered outside, talking to each other. Some were just preparing to go in, while others were just waiting for something.

n“Hello brother. You just came here, didn’t you? I am sure that you are clueless about the Black Swamp Forest. There is little to no information present about it anywhere. Here, I have a map of the entire forest, and it even has a route to show how to get to the Sky Heaven’s sect. This can be yours for the price of only ten spirit coins.” All of a sudden, this man came up to me and showed me a map.

n“You are saying that I can just finish the first trial by just spending ten spirit coins? Do you really think that I am that stupid? I think that I will stick to my father’s words, thank you.” I shook my head.

n“Your father’s words? And what might those wise words be? For you to give up such an incredible opportunity?” the man asked.

n“If I am fated to go to the Sky Heaven’s sect, then I shall. If I am not, then I will find my path another way. Either way, you can try your scam elsewhere. I think that I will just go on in.” I said.

n“Interesting. That is a rare thing to say when you send your son to the selection of one of the greatest sects in the kingdom. Your father is a very interesting man. I think that I would love to meet him.” the man smiled.

n“Go ahead. I don’t want to be a part of that. I am just going into the Black Swamp Forest now. I have very little time left, and I want to get to the sect on time for the selections.” I said.

n“I will give you one piece of advice, friend, since we seem to have some fate together. I suggest that you do not go anywhere near the Ash Trees. If you see one, then you should run away.” the man said.

n“The Ash trees? Why is that?” I asked, turning back to look at him. But he was no longer standing there.

n“What a weird man. I should have used the mind eye to see his name. Oh well, I guess a little caution wouldn’t hurt. But why the Ash trees? I guess I should have read about the sect and workings of the world like Liu Man said.” I sighed.

nI took another look at whoever was around. There were people talking to each other, and I could hear bits and pieces of conversation. From what I could understand, they were collaborating with each other to go through the Black Swamp Forest on their own.

n“I wonder what the dangers in there are? I mean, how hard is it for everyone to be so tensed about it?” I muttered.

n“It is a pretty difficult forest to go through. Most of the thousands of eager participants actually get eliminated in this one trial and are not able to get to the Sky Heaven’s sect for this very reason. I wonder who you are though. Not every day that someone just comes to the trials without knowing how difficult they are.” a voice came up behind me.

nI glanced at the person who had just spoken.

n“No wonder I recognized the voice. To think that it was Du Xiangling! Why did you come to the Sky Heaven’s sect though? I thought that you were already a part of a dojo.” I asked.

n“To get stronger, I need to face stronger trials. I guess that is why you came here as well. I heard that you got out of the Spirit Jade Pool earlier than you were supposed to. Well, I guess that you had so many opportunities.” Du Xiangling shook his head.

n“Just tell me what the whole problem with the Black Swamp Forest is. You can complain later.” I said.

n“The Black Swamp forest is one of the most mysterious zones in the kingdom. No one understands why it behaves as it does. The Sky Heaven’s sect is at the center of the Black Swamp Forest. But the interesting thing is, the Sect itself stays at the center, but the Forest moves around. No one knows how it does. Only once every three years, the entrance of the Black Swamp Forest in our kingdom opens up. The remaining time, the forest is too dangerous. That is why the selection process happens once every three years.” Du Xiangling said.

n“But if the entrance moves every three years, then at each point, the entrance has to be somewhere right? There has to be some way to exit the Sky Heaven’s sect after we go in.” I asked.

n“It does. But the entrance changes spots. After every year, the entrance is in a different kingdom. So leaving can only be possible if you are extremely strong, or if you have a flying steed.” he said.

n“So the Black Swamp Forest is a very dangerous place. What level are the magic beasts going to be? How dangerous are they? Can we fight against them?” I asked.

n“If we stick to the straight line that we are supposed to go through, then we should not have a problem. But if we stray away from the center, then even a Nascent Soul Cultivator will face a life threatening danger. That is what my father said.” Du Xiangling said.

n“Why couldn’t my father warn me about the important stuff? Instead, he had to talk about fate and what not nonsense.”
