Chapter 512 The ferryman above the underworld
Although it is going upstream, the turbid river water seems to have no resistance and is ethereal. Moreover, the power they carry to cleanse the soul and dissolve the memory of the true spirit is blocked by the aura of merit and virtue. The black and yellow light blooms, all of which are blocked out. , so Shi Xuan effortlessly used the powerful suction force from the Jiuyou world to maximize his two-realm crossing technique. In just an instant, he followed the turbid river and entered the first level of the Jiuyou.
The great world of Nine Netherworld has no mulch, no Gang Qi, but is surrounded by a layer of faint and dark gas. It contains the dark Qi of Nine Netherworld, dense Yin Qi, rich death Qi, ferocious and brutal Qi, filthy evil Qi, etc., passing through it. Over time, if it weren't for the Xuanhuang Merit Tower to protect him, Shi Xuan would have suffered a lot. If he were an ordinary Yuanshen real person, if he was brushed by this layer of dark energy, he would immediately be blinded by the filthy Yuanshen and the fallen true spirit. The mind is integrated into the Qi of Jiuyou.
Just after entering the first level of Jiuyou, the turbid river suddenly changed. The river water turned into substance, but it had no buoyancy. Instead, it took Shi Xuan and sank downwards. The majestic power of the avenue was contained in it, which could restrain the soul and wash away the evil spirits. It shakes the soul, dissolves memories, forgets and relieves worries, and makes people sink forever.
It has a blood-yellow turbid color, and there are lonely souls and wild ghosts that have sunk in it from all directions. All of them have full bellies and red eyes. They are struggling hard in the river, trying hard to swim to the surface of the river, but it is difficult to do so, because the upward river water There are also dense water ghosts inside, so extreme pain, hatred, and resentment can only be spread around the body.
This is the river of Huangquan, the water of the River of Forgetfulness, where no goose feather can float, and all real people will fall. Even the powerful immortals will not be able to escape if they do not open up their own small world. Fortunately, all things in the Great Dao have their own restraints. If you have the treasure of the Five Virtues in your body, depending on its grade, you can withstand the invasion of the Forgotten River water for different periods of time, or even be completely unaffected.
The five virtues are holy virtue, merit, yin virtue, merit, and morality. Shi Xuan only dared to take this risky step because he had the Xuanhuang Merit Pagoda. However, the grade of his Xuanhuang Merit Pagoda is still low, and I am afraid it can only support three. Five moments.
Shi Xuan understood that life and death depended on this moment. The Xuanhuang Merit Tower shone brightly, and the hanging Xuanhuang Qi strips were like five-clawed celestial dragons, isolating the water of Huangquan Wangchuan from the outside, but the blood-yellow river water kept lapping on it, even if all evil spirits The inviolable merit and virtue gradually began to rust and expanded rapidly.
Seizing the opportunity, Shi Xuan flicked his fingers together, and the sword energy of Liangyi's dust moved horizontally and vertically, turning the front into a prehistoric universe. A vast world opened up in the void, and its collapse formed a black hole. The void storm entangled in time and space raged everywhere, and the sun The moon and stars are born and broken...
The vicious water ghosts in front of him who were trapped in the universe turned into powder in an instant. The water ghosts below stretched out countless skinny and pale hands and grabbed Shi Xuan. Their fingernails were white and extremely sharp, and they actually clawed at the black and yellow merit energy. There were streaks of white marks, and the sharp and harsh sound made people almost go crazy.
The first moment passed.
Seeing that there was a section of road ahead, Shi Xuan ignored the attacks from the water ghosts behind him and around him. He did not hesitate to use his innate wind and thunder escape, and the purple and green lightning flashed in the breeze, and he moved forward quickly.
However, after being invaded by the underworld's water, Liangyi's mote sword energy killed a bunch of water ghosts and was unable to hold on and melted into the river. Fortunately, Shi Xuan survived the third heavenly catastrophe without absorbing spiritual energy or money. The sword energy of Liangyi's dust popped out and opened a bloody path, fighting and walking upwards to escape.
The second, third, and fourth moment passed.
All the Xuanhuang merit energy had turned into a blood-yellow, rusty color and was slowly disintegrating, while Shi Xuan saw the swaying water surface a few feet away.
But at this moment, a tall water ghost floating on the water sensed the aura of a stranger and turned to look at Shi Xuan. Its scarlet blood-like eyes exuded substantial malice.
Then, it stretched out its hand, and its arms rapidly extended. Its fingers were as white as jade, and its nails were as red as the water of the underworld.
During the transformation of his five fingers, he actually pinched out a sigil worth one yuan, forming a clear Taoist character "photo". He fixed Shi Xuan in place from a distance and sucked it into his palm.
"It turned out to be the great immortal who fell in the water of Huangquan Wangchuan!" Seeing that this water ghost had a little more agility and aura of avenue than other hateful wandering souls, Shi Xuan immediately understood its identity and felt extremely excited. The great danger is that even if he has died and his lifelong cultivation has dissipated, after being melted by the water of the underworld and transformed into a water ghost, the remaining strength is probably close to that of a heavenly being and cannot be matched by himself.
Moreover, Shi Xuan saw that the Xuanhuang Merit Tower above his head would be completely shattered in at most two seconds, and his mind was spinning: "Sacrificing the last Xuanhuang Merit Tower, trying to deal with it, looking for an opportunity to escape? No, his attack will be invaded by the water of the underworld. With the combination, I am afraid that it will not last for two or three seconds, and the longer it is delayed, the more dangerous it will be. I wonder if there are other fallen immortals nearby! I can only cut through the mess quickly and take some risks!"
The black-yellow merit tower above Shi Xuan's head suddenly rose, turning rapidly, turning into countless blood-yellow merit energy, rolling and exploding, like a blood-yellow true dragon scattering in all directions. The handprints extended by the water ghost transformed by the Heavenly Immortal True Lord were After a short pause, the water from the underworld retreated a little, and Shi Xuan's body suddenly became hollow.
A sacred, solemn, vast and profound golden bridge emerged above Shi Xuan's head. The bridge was transcendent and free, surrounded by golden lotuses beside the bridge. Under the bridge was a peaceful chaos, without the evolution of earth, fire, feng shui.
The water of the underworld that surged back, the ghost hands that continued to capture, the ghosts of the Heavenly Lord, and the malicious water ghosts all stagnated for a moment. Shi Xuan seized the opportunity, flapped his wings of wind and thunder, and escaped through several feet of river water, rubbing against many water ghosts. Passing by, breaking through the water, and finally breaking out of the underworld!
Tai Chi diagram, the treasure of yin and yang morality!
A blood-yellow river came from the sky in mighty force. Before entering the world of Jiuyou, Shi Xuan vaguely saw that it originated from the depths of the ninth level of Jiuyou, ran through the entire Jiuyou, and disappeared on the first level of Jiuyou. At the end, and when flowing on the ninth floor, it branched off into countless tributaries, penetrating into the void, and it was unknown where it flowed. Shi Xuan guessed that it should be the underworld, hell, underworld, underworld, etc. in other worlds.
Above the river, the sky is dark and heavy. Beyond the river, there is nothingness all around, filled with black space-time storms. Even those with three or four weakened powers cannot escape death if they step into it.
However, Shi Xuan was not in the mood and had no time to appreciate the scenery at the entrance to the first level of the Nine Netherworld. After flying out of the underworld, Shi Xuan felt that the laws of heaven and earth above the underworld were upside down and chaotic, and it was difficult to use magic to break through the space and move. , or run away quickly, even having trouble keeping steady.
As soon as they rushed out, they immediately fell back to the water. Many ghosts floating on the water, including Tianjun Water Ghost, had their arms stretched out and their nails sharp, like a dense forest.
Shi Xuan was about to sacrifice the last black and yellow merit tower and use it at the same time as the Tai Chi diagram to stabilize the falling body and soul. However, at this time, a black boat swayed over from a distance, with a figure standing on it. The boatman, wearing a bamboo hat, a raincoat, and a black short robe, was swinging his long odd-shaped oar leisurely and said: "If you want to cross the underworld, you have to take my boat. Sir, are you willing?" The voice said Gloomy and old.
In the blink of an eye, before Shi Xuan fell, the black boat sailed under him. Shi Xuan could not tell the depth of the old boatman's cultivation, but he saw the rolling underworld and the darkness of the void. He thought that there would be land on the first level of Jiuyou. There are places where it is not something you can do. In addition to some rumors I have heard, this man who ferries the underworld is not a good person, but he is not a villain who takes advantage of the situation. It's just that the boat money he asks for is often weird. If he can't pay, , it takes a hundred years to punt the boat for him to pay for the shipping fee.
Compared to life, these are trivial matters, and just now Shi Xuan was about to use the last Xuanhuang Merit Tower and add the Tai Chi diagram to stabilize his body, just to wait for the ferryman to come, so Shi Xuan did not hesitate and lightly It landed lightly on the other end of the boat.
It can be seen that in some cases, extensive knowledge can definitely save lives. If Shi Xuan has not listened to Grandma Yu's story, and has not read some records of the true kings who accidentally broke into the Jiuyou World by chance, he has not read it. After reading some of the half-step Jinxian’s experiences and experiences, I didn’t know how powerful the Five Virtues were in restraining the underworld, and I didn’t know that there would be ferry people coming. I was afraid that I would have died of exhaustion and become one of the billions of water ghosts in the river.
"Knowledge is power..." Shi Xuan came up with this idea for some reason, and then he bowed his hands and said, "Please ask me to take Pindao to Zuo Sheng Ghost Capital." Zuo Sheng Emperor is the master of the first level of Jiuyou. After four great calamities, its ghost capital is located next to a certain section of the underworld.
The old boatman raised his head, revealing an ordinary old face under the bamboo hat, with white hair and no beard. He slightly tilted his jaw and smiled sinisterly: "You are the only one among real people who can break free from the underworld for so many years." One share, the future generations will be fearful! Haha, your natal magic weapon should be the yin and yang moral treasure?"
Shi Xuan didn't expect that real people had broken in before, but they didn't record and spread it. They were afraid that they had turned into ghosts in the underworld. From this point of view, some monks below the Yuan Shen level might have fallen into the Nine Nethers before, but never again. It’s just that I can’t get out: “I’m sorry, I just happen to have two treasures of the five virtues in my body, otherwise I would not be able to escape the disaster.” Shi Xuan was vague about the Tai Chi diagram. Although there are many treasures of yin and yang virtues, But there is no need to go into detail.
"Okay." The old boatman shook the oar, changed the direction of the boat, and sailed towards the first level of Jiuyou. Although this black boat was ordinary, just because it could float on the underworld, it was considered a rare treasure. A rare treasure.
As the boat passed by, those water ghosts kept grabbing their arms upwards, making squeaking scratches with their fingernails, but they were unable to damage them at all, or even hinder them in the slightest. However, this scene was extremely impressive, and the timid ones might be afraid of it. He was so frightened that his legs were trembling and he didn't dare to look directly.
Shi Xuan sat on the bow of the boat, looked at the old boatman rowing at the stern, and asked: "Old man, I wonder if Zuo Shenggui can hate living people?"
