Under the depressing atmosphere, the entire swamp fell into deathly silence.
Here, wailing spreads for thousands of miles, and the dead are floating around! Deathly aura covers the entire swamp, and murderous intent emerges under the dark fog.
However, no one dared to approach this altar, let alone the undead.
They were afraid, terrified! Under this altar, buried was an ancient giant.
Crocodile Master!
He was once an emperor from the abyss of the undead, and a ruthless man who dared to confront darkness head-on in the last years of the ancient times.
In the past, when he entered the no-man's land! He was a peerless strong man who explored the unknown restricted area alone and was able to escape unscathed.
Even if his name only appears, it can scare people away.
During the ancient catastrophe of the Immortal Realm, he had fought against a true master of unknown origin and reduced most of the ancient immortal realm to ruins.
To this day, the ruins of the ancient battlefield where he fought the great battle still remain.
This is all the information Ye Qiu has learned about the Crocodile Master, and it is also the only information that the veteran from Huangquan Road told Ye Qiu.
However, the veteran did not give a detailed introduction to the identity of the Crocodile Lord, all his experiences, or even his friendship with the Zhenwu Emperor.
Just tell Ye Qiu to come find the Crocodile Master! Any risks will be solved.
With trust in the old soldier, Ye Qiu came.
At this moment, when he heard the name of Zhenwu Emperor, the Crocodile Lord fell into deep thought and did not speak for a long time.
He seemed to be recalling, searching for clues about this name from the long river of memory.
It had been so long that he had forgotten many things.
But he has not forgotten the hatred that is engraved in his bones.
Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a long time, Ye Qiu, feeling uneasy, nervously reminded him: "Senior...Senior, the person who asked me to come and look for you was an old soldier of my master. He told me that my master, the Great Emperor Zhenwu, had a very close friendship with you during a dark period in the past. They were close friends."
Before he could finish his words, the Crocodile Lord suddenly opened his rotten eyes and looked at Ye Qiu with extremely cold eyes.
"Best friend?"
"The Great Emperor Zhenwu? I...seem to remember it."
After a moment's silence, a terrifying sense of oppression suddenly pressed towards Ye Qiu.
At that moment, Ye Qiu felt that his body was bearing tremendous gravity. He almost fell to his knees and was unable to get up.
"puff……"
Ye Qiu couldn't bear even a single look from the Immortal Emperor. The strong sense of oppression made it difficult for him to breathe.
"Huh, is this the Immortal Emperor?"
After wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Ye Qiu was still frightened. Fortunately, he had an immortal body, otherwise he would not dare to come to such a ghost place to meet the so-called Crocodile Lord.
"Boy! You are very brave. You dare to enter this life restricted area alone to find me, and even report the name of Zhenwu. Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"
After these words were spoken, Ye Qiu's face darkened.
A vague ominous premonition flashed through my heart.
He could clearly feel that the cold murderous intent in the Crocodile Lord's tone was continuing to spread, and at this moment he was unable to move his whole body.
"I don't understand what you mean, Senior. Aren't you... a close friend of my teacher?"
Hearing these words, the crocodile master who had been sealed for many years showed a playful smile.
He said in a joking tone: "I really don't know what the intention of the person who asked you to come to see me is."
"Best friend? Haha, that's ridiculous..."
"You shameless little thief, Zhenwu! I wish I could skin him alive and pull out his tendons."
"I still remember the sword he stabbed me with. I dream about how to return it every day."
"Boy! You are so brave. Since you claim to be a disciple of the Great Emperor Zhenwu, that's fine... If I can't find that old guy to avenge, I will start with you, the little one, to wash away the shame that I brought upon myself in those days."
As soon as these words came out, Ye Qiu's face turned pale instantly.
Oh shit!
Am I being cheated?
This guy is not a friend of Emperor Zhenwu, but an enemy.
Damn, that old guy lied to me?
No matter how careful you are, you can never guard against a thief within your own home.
Ye Qiu suddenly woke up. No wonder when he contacted the old soldier before, he always felt that there was a vague malicious smile on his skull.
It seems that he is plotting against Ye Qiu.
But why did he do that?
Ye Qiu had no time to think. Seeing that the crocodile leader was about to attack, Ye Qiu hurriedly shouted: "Senior, wait a minute..."
"Oh? Do you have any last words?"
The Crocodile Master looked at Ye Qiu coldly. Ye Qiu was so nervous at this moment that his voice was trembling.
Damn, I was cheated!
What should I do? What should I do?
As his mind raced, Ye Qiu suddenly remembered something and said, "Old Senior, a peerless Immortal Emperor like you will not embarrass me, right?"
"If you will not embarrass me and are willing to help me through this disaster, I am willing to tell you the location of my master."
"Um?"
After these words were spoken, it was the crocodile master's turn to be dumbfounded.
What kind of great disciple is this?
My brain, which hadn't been used for thousands of years, suddenly started to malfunction.
What kind of drama is this about a loving master and filial piety among his disciples?
Originally, the Crocodile Lord just wanted to tease this kid. After all, he had been sealed here for so many years, and no living creature within a million miles dared to approach him.
Finally someone came to talk to him, and he was very happy.
Ye Qiu's action completely confused him.
Ye Qiu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the murderous aura on him subside.
"Huh... Looks like there's still room for negotiation. We can temporarily resolve this damn deadlock."
He felt relieved. As for betraying the address of Emperor Zhenwu, Ye Qiu did not feel any guilt.
After all, he was also a victim, and when he was dying, he could only sacrifice himself for his mentor.
Of course, if possible! He wanted to tell the Crocodile Master the address of the veteran on Huangquan Road.
Every injustice has its perpetrator.
Moreover, Ye Qiu knew in his heart that even if he told the Crocodile Lord the exact location of the Zhenwu Emperor, he would not be able to do anything to the Zhenwu Emperor.
At most, there is no one who is better or worse between them, and no one can do anything to the other.
"Haha, interesting! Boy, I didn't expect you to be such a filial child. Very good. I am very optimistic about you."
The Crocodile Lord smiled slightly, put away his murderous aura, and after making a joke, he continued, "Speaking of which, the conflict between this emperor and your master is not that big."
"We even fought side by side during some dark times in the past."
"It's just that when I was young, I was repeatedly deceived by this little thief, and my reputation was ruined. I almost became infamous forever."
"If I don't take revenge, I will never be able to let go of the knot in my heart."
Hearing this, Ye Qiu immediately understood! He was fooled again.
I felt ashamed. Why do these old monsters like to play tricks on people so much?
"Okay! Let's get back to the point. Tell me, why did you risk your life to come to find me?"
After the teasing, the Crocodile Lord quickly returned to his indifferent state.
Ye Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, and then explained: "I came here this time to ask you to save my life."
"Um?"
After hearing this, the Crocodile Lord was stunned for a moment, then looked at Ye Qiu suspiciously.
His eyes seemed to have some kind of magical power. In an instant... it was as if he could see everything that Ye Qiu had experienced since he came here.
“Unknown!”
When the Crocodile Lord noticed the ominous signs on the horizon, his mood obviously fluctuated slightly.
