The old man's expression was meticulous. He looked at Xu Zimo and smiled again.
"How to prove this?" Xu Zimo asked.
"I can't prove it, but I just know it," Song Yuanshan replied.
"I haven't told anyone about this, but you are kind to little girl Muyang, so I will only tell you."
"A long time ago, the God-Emperor was defeated in the Death Swamp and never came out again.
At that time, everyone thought that the God Emperor was dead.
You people outside don’t know it clearly, and neither do those outside us.
A hundred years ago, I was still a child."
"At that time, I always wanted to explore the depths of the Death Swamp. One day, a big movement suddenly broke out in the depths of the Death Swamp.
There is a blue torrent rising straight into the sky, reflecting the entire Death Swamp.
When I saw the torrent, I thought a treasure had been discovered, so I climbed over the mountain to look for it."
"Do you know what I saw when I climbed over the mountains?"
"A man stood in the void, and endless torrent burst out from him."
"I didn't quite understand what it was at that time. It wasn't until a few years later that I had the chance to see the portrait of the God Emperor, and then I realized that the man looked exactly like the God Emperor."
"Looks can also be imitated," Xu Zimo replied.
"But that momentum cannot be imitated," Song Yuanshan replied seriously.
"In the past few years, countless powerful people have come to the Death Swamp, big and small, but there are only a handful of them with that kind of momentum."
Xu Zimo frowned slightly.
He didn't completely believe Song Yuanshan's words, but he didn't deny him either.
"Let's keep this matter a secret for now," Xu Zimo thought for a while and said.
"Otherwise, if you say it, it may cause an uproar, and your entire Zhui Ri Village will not be at peace."
"Of course I know, so I've kept it secret all these years," Song Yuanshan nodded.
"By the way, do you still want the fragments of the broken sword?
It’s of no use if I put it on me anyway.”
"Give it to me," Xu Zimo took the broken sword fragments.
"At that time, the God Emperor erupted and a torrent rose into the sky. I could only watch from a distance and did not dare to approach.
After he walked away for a while, I walked around the area and found fragments of the sword," Song Yuanshan explained.
Xu Zimo nodded slightly.
"Thank you. This news is very important to me."
"It would be great if I could help you," Song Yuanshan said with a smile.
"After all, we in Zhuiri Village are very polite and reciprocal."
Xu Zimo thought for a while and then said: "After some time, there may be a decisive battle between Immortal Island and Death Swamp.
When the time comes, I will protect your pursuit of Hicun from being implicated."
"Thank you so much, sir," Song Yuanshan said before kneeling down to thank him.
This was what he was waiting for.
After all, people become wiser with age. Although Zhui Ri Village is in the Death Swamp, Song Yuanshan may have some information about what happened in the Ancient City of Death.
The decisive battle is coming, and everyone can feel it.
However, in troubled times, it is impossible for ordinary people to find peace.
Only relying on the strong is the only option.
Song Yuanshan had kept the secret of the God Emperor his whole life, and now he finally told it.
This is a bargaining chip.
Xu Zimo has no sympathy for sending the crops back. If there is no bargaining chip, the decisive battle will come and Zhui Ri Village will be the first to bear the brunt. What should they do?
Fortunately, Song Yuanshan's goal was achieved, and Xu Zimo also obtained important information.
…
At this time, Mu Yang came in carrying the boiled herbs.
She helped the lady up on the bed and carefully administered the medicine. This invisible grass was indeed very effective.
After just a few sips, Mu Yang's mother's face turned rosy, and the power of the curse around her became much lighter.
"Will everyone in the village experience this?" Xu Zimo asked.
Song Yuanshan sighed.
He replied: "Most people will be like this. It's relatively mild. Some serious cases will cause death on the spot. You can't survive until this time."
"We all look forward to one day becoming real people and walking out of this world."
After drinking the medicine, Mrs. Muyang was obviously much better and her consciousness became clearer.
However, after recovering from a serious illness, you still need to rest.
Walking out of the yard, the sky was getting dark now.
The villagers of Zhui Ri Village have prepared a dinner.
Song Yuanshan explained: "The Death Swamp is even more dangerous at night. In addition to those evil spirits, there are also strange things walking around.
Why don't you leave tomorrow?"
Xu Zimo smiled and said: "I would like to see something strange. If you are even afraid of this, then you might as well not attack the Death Swamp."
Although the dinner was very rich, Xu Zimo didn't eat much, just a few bites.
Because the food here is infected with the power of the curse, although the impact is minimal, it is not to Xu Zimo's taste.
When leaving in the evening, Mu Yang said goodbye with tears and thanked Xu Zimo for taking care of him along the way.
Xu Zimo accepted it calmly.
Without his help, it's still unclear whether Mu Yang would be able to come back. Besides, the Invisible Faction wouldn't betray his dignity by giving the Hidden God Grass to Mu Yang.
After leaving Zhui Ri Village, Xu Zimo did not rush out. Instead, he climbed over the mountains and looked into the depths of the Death Swamp.
At that time, the God Emperor briefly appeared, and Song Yuanshan saw the fragments of the broken sword.
Xu Zimo then asked about the location where he found the broken sword and prepared to investigate.
If there were no accidents about this broken sword, it should be the sword of the God Emperor.
After crossing the mountains, Xu Zimo saw a lot of strange things along the way.
These weird things are similar to evil spirits, but completely different.
Both were creatures that died tragically in the Death Swamp.
It's just that evil spirits are the product of souls that have dispersed, while most weird ones retain their physical bodies.
Along the way, Xu Zimo saw rushing scholars, seductive women, as well as old people and children.
These people tried to kill Xu Zimo in various ways, but unfortunately Xu Zimo pushed them away.
Xu Zimo quickly arrived at the location of the broken sword fragments.
This is already very close to the depths of the Death Swamp, which is equivalent to the dividing point.
As soon as Xu Zimo came over, he could find that a big battle had happened here.
There are many deep pits around, all left by powerful forces.
On the left side of the mountain, there was a peak standing, but this peak was cut in half with a sword.
A line of sky appeared in the middle of the mountain peak.
In this mountain peak, the immortal sword intent is rioting.
The sword intent was so strong that even when Xu Zimo came close, he could feel pain on his skin.
This is definitely left by a strong person at the level of three corpses.
Only those in the same realm can make Xu Zimo feel this way.
"God Emperor, it seems that what Song Yuanshan said should be true," Xu Zimo frowned slightly.
"This place is also close to the periphery. Why hasn't it been discovered for so many years?"
He looked around and finally found the reason.
I saw stone monuments standing all around the mountain peak.
