Night has completely fallen.

Among the endless black mountains, there is a star-like light.

At a certain moment, several sparks suddenly appeared above "this star".

If you look closer, you will find that these sand-like fireworks are actually colorful.

At this moment, Xingzi Town and Xingzi Lake, located among the mountains, have arrived at their busiest time.

Not long ago, the brilliant fireworks used by Xingzi Town to tell time briefly lit up the dark sky above the town, and also indicated that the fourth quarter of the evening had arrived.

However, the light of the fireworks in the sky pales in comparison to the bright lights of Xingzi Town below.

If it weren't for the sound of fireworks, the monks from all over Nanxing County who were wandering in the bustling streets would probably not realize that time passed so quickly.

Thousands of lights in the night market illuminate the green clouds, and guests with red sleeves flock to the tall buildings.

The ten-mile-long street along the water is the most prosperous place, and the adjacent Xingzi Lake is no less prosperous.

Interestingly, in addition to boating, there is another simple and rustic way to enter Xingzi Lake.

That is walking on foot.

Just like Zhao Rong, Zhao Qianer and Li Bai at this moment.

The three of them walked leisurely on the lake that reflected the starry sky. There was nothing where they stepped on. Below them was the wavy water, but there seemed to be a transparent object supporting the water.

Like a smooth road.

At this time, there were only three of them walking.

Behind me, on the shore not far away, there were many passers-by and passengers waiting to board the boat looking over here.

Next to these onlookers, there is a black, old stone tablet.

On the lake, many guests who came out from the railings of the pleasure boats to get some fresh air were also attracted by the three figures walking on the lake. They became the focus of everyone's attention.

On the shore, some monks gathered around the stone tablet. They looked at the backs of Zhao Rong and the other two as they left, and then looked at the strange star map engraved on the stone tablet, either in deep thought or nodding in amazement.

Cultivators are not allowed to fly over Xingzi Lake, just like in Xingzi Town.

This is also the basic rule of the monks' city and most mountain markets, unless it is some special monks' city and immortal market, or the rules are special, or the terrain is special.

Zhao Rong had heard that there were some such places in other continents.

Moreover, these special cities of cultivators involve the historical changes in the world of cultivation that the Xuanhuang human race has experienced in the process of building one cultivator city after another over tens of thousands of years.

At least in Wangque Continent, flying is prohibited even in Duyou City, the largest city of cultivators, not to mention Xingzi Town in Nanxing County of Dali Dynasty.

However, on Xingzi Lake, which is full of "fireworks", there is only one way to go there, which is to take a boat to the brightly lit and bustling pleasure boats.

There is also a road that can only be walked on at night, where you can walk to many pleasure boats.

However, few people have set foot on this transparent road on the lake.

Although the method is written on an ancient stone tablet by the lake.

Because only one who is very proficient in astrology can decipher the star map on the stone tablet, which may have been left by an immortal.

Then, following the instructions on the star map, you step on the positions where certain corresponding constellations are reflected on the lake surface, and take this 'shortcut' that changes every night according to the subtle fluctuations of the stars.

You can only walk on a clear night with no clouds and all the stars in the sky "falling" into the water.

The combination of so many conditions makes it quite harsh.

Most of the monks who tried to decipher the star map on the stone tablet returned in vain, and could only take the ordinary route and take the boat, giving up the vanity of attracting other people's attention.

So normally at Xingzi Lake, about every two or three days, this strange ancient road covered on the lake filled with stars will see a few figures stepping on it.

Then it attracted the amazement of people on the shore.

But tonight...

The many passers-by who had just watched the backs of Zhao Rong and the other two disappear on the lake, and the many cultivators who had been inspired to try to crack the stone tablet but failed, were about to disperse and leave.

Crash——!

Suddenly, there was a loud noise in the air.

"Get out of the way, don't block the road."

A woman shouted harshly.

The already crowded crowd passively made way for a wide avenue.

Then, there was a sound of hurried footsteps.

I saw a group of people with impressive momentum coming towards me.

At the head was a very young woman wearing a black pleated skirt with fluttering ribbons.

The young woman has a beautiful appearance.

As for how to describe it...if it was from a certain novel that Zhao Rong had read, the commonly used word "absolutely beautiful" should be able to be used.

The woman was dressed in black with long flowing black hair, and she had a strong aura, causing the onlookers around her to step back.

The skin on her face, slender neck and hands was as white as milk.

The two of them, black and white, were extremely conspicuous on the street at that moment.

The 'stunningly beautiful' woman walked straight ahead with her back straight and her eyes straight ahead, without even glancing at the passers-by around her.

She held her two white and tender hands in front of her abdomen, and although her steps were hurried, she maintained an elegant rhythm.

Behind this woman, there was a group of followers.

The person closest to her was a maid in red with a pretty face, who followed closely behind her on the right.

However, the maid in red had an arrogant expression and a rather arrogant tone at this time. She said in a cold voice: "The people in front, disperse quickly."

Needless to say, the scolding just now was also made by her, while the stunning woman in black dress and black hair said nothing from beginning to end, her pretty face expressionless and slightly cold, her eyes looking directly at the center of the lake in the distance.

The two women were striding towards the ancient monument by the lake, followed closely by a group of servants in green clothes.

Passersby gathered by the lake heard the scolding, and many of the monks frowned. However, some monks were about to take a step forward when they heard the timid whispers of some people in the crowd.

"Hey, isn't this Fairy Su? Why did you come to Xingzi Town..."

"Hey, don't go, that's Su Qingdai..."

"Su Qingdai? No wonder she's so pretty..."

So some of the heroes put their raised feet down silently, with an expression as if nothing had happened.

The 'stunning' woman in black dress and black hair, known as Fairy Su, still kept her eyes fixed on the largest ferry in the middle of the lake when she came to the stone tablet. She did not even look at the inscription on the tablet, but continued walking towards the lake without stopping.

The red-clad maid and the green-clad attendants behind her followed her without hesitation.

But at a certain moment, Su Qingdai turned her body slightly, and somewhere on the shore, she stepped out her slender right leg from under her skirt.

The next second, he was stepping on the air that looked like a real road.

Afterwards, her expression, which had been as cold as ice for a thousand years, finally changed, and she glanced at the stars in the sky from time to time.

Every step she took followed strange rules invisibly, occasionally moving left and right.

The followers behind Su Qingdai also followed her, walking on the ancient road of Xingzi Lake in a hurried pace.

Soon, this seemingly anxious pair disappeared on the lake.

On the shore behind them, next to the ancient monument, they saw two groups of people walking into the Starry Ancient Road in the lake. It was so lively that the monks watching could not help but look at each other.

At this moment, on the lake surface in the distance near the center of the lake.

There were three figures taking a leisurely walk...
