Chapter 345: The Dragon Ghost Chariot
Lin Fan's expression changed slightly.
The underworld is no better than Wuyahai, where ghost cultivators are everywhere.
Although Lin Fan practiced "Xuangui Taoism", the smell of fresh flesh and blood on his body was very obvious.
A high-level ghost cultivator can restrain the desires in his heart and not use him as blood food.
The ghost cultivator in the earthly realm wanted to kill him from time to time to extract his blood essence and soul.
It can be said that the current Lin Fan is simply a piece of cake in the underworld.
It would be too risky for him to go to the River Styx to pick ghost flowers.
But Lin Fan knew very well that this was probably his only chance to collect the Nether Spirit Flower.
If he missed this opportunity, it would probably be even more difficult for him to obtain the Nether Spirit Flower in the Underworld Ghost Realm on his own.
"It's really hard to guess what Lord Ghost King is thinking. He seems to be helping me, but I'm afraid there's another reason for this. But, I have no choice now!" Lin Fan thought secretly.
At this moment, Gui Li did not force Lin Fan to make an immediate decision.
He sat quietly on the throne, his expression as usual.
After waiting for a full cup of tea, Lin Fan finally spoke: "Senior Ghost King, I originally asked you for this matter. I picked the Nether Spirit Flowers myself, so there is nothing wrong with it. However, I have nothing to do with what happened in the Styx River. If you don’t know anything, please tell me something.”
Gui Li smiled slightly, very satisfied with Lin Fan's attitude of not making an immediate decision.
"Fellow Daoist Lin is young, but he is so safe in doing things. No wonder he dares to seek skin from the golden dragon and tiger. However, if you want to collect the Nether Spirit Flower, you must withstand the erosion of the soul by the water of the Styx. If you can't do it, I'm afraid I The king sent you to the River Styx at the junction of the Yinsi Ghost Realm and the Shura Ghost Realm, and you were unable to successfully collect the Nether Spirit Flower!" Gui Li explained.
Lin Fan couldn't help but his expression changed slightly.
When he came to the underworld, he saw the terror of the Styx.
The river water inside is extremely dark and bottomless.
Even the Dingbian ghost army commanded by the Yinsi Ghost King screamed in pain when they entered the River Styx.
If he were allowed to enter the bottom of the Styx River to pick the Nether Spirit Flower, the difficulty would increase a lot out of thin air.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, I know that you are worried that the water of the Styx will corrode your soul, right? In fact, the water of the Styx is bitingly cold. Although it can corrode the soul, it can also strengthen it."
"Now, there are still three full months until the Nether Spirit Flower blooms. Why don't you follow the soldiers of the Dingbian Army and enter the River Styx for training."
"Three months is a short period of time, but it should allow your soul to adapt to the erosion of the water of the Styx!"
Seeing Lin Fan's expression of embarrassment, Gui Li immediately explained with a smile.
His words removed the knot in Lin Fan's heart.
"Thank you, Lord Ghost King, for clearing up the confusion. If this is the case, I will enter the Styx River with the Dingbian Army for training starting tomorrow." Lin Fan said happily.
"good!"
Gui Li agreed and looked at Luo Li.
Seeing Luo Li nodding, he said: "Fellow Daoist Lin, we have already made it clear to you what needs to be explained. After I helped you collect the Nether Spirit Flower, there will no longer be anything between you and Xiaoyan. You Do you understand?"
"Senior, don't worry, this junior is not that kind of messy person. Since I promised my senior and the princess, I will not go back on my word!" Lin Fan said quickly.
Gui Li and Luo Li smiled with satisfaction.
His attitude towards Lin Fan also became more easy-going.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, these days, you go to the Dingbian Army for training every day. Although your realm is not weak, you will inevitably be remembered in the ghost world. Let the Hell Dog protect your safety." Luo Li said with a smile.
Although Lin Fan knew that this was Gui Li and Luo Li's way of spying on him, he did not dare to refuse.
"Thank you for taking care of me, Princess. I am very grateful to you." Lin Fan said with a smile.
"Well, it's hard work, Fellow Daoist Lin. Let's go down and rest for now."
Luo Li waved her hand, signaling Lin Fan to leave.
When he walked out of the living room, he found Mu Yan and the hell dog waiting outside the living room.
Seeing Lin Fan come out, a hint of complexity suddenly flashed across Mu Yan's beautiful eyes.
"host……"
"Yan'er, I told you that there is no master-servant relationship between you and me. Now, I am very happy that you can reunite with your family. Please stay with the Ghost King and Princess, and let the Hell Dog Taoist Fellow Just go and rest!”
Before Mu Yan could finish her words, Lin Fan quickly explained.
Mu Yan knew that with her parents here, there were certain things that Lin Fan would not be able to say to her.
After a moment of silence, Mu Yan nodded with red eyes.
"Well, you go and rest. I will come find you when I see my father and queen!"
Lin Fan nodded and immediately left with the Hell Dog.
Although the palace where Luo Li lives is not large, it covers an area of dozens of acres.
Along the way, pure ghost energy lingered in the void. Moonstones, as colorful as jade, are spread on the ground. The entire palace was illuminated as beautifully as daylight.
In addition, many rare elixirs unique to the underworld are planted in the palace. Every plant taken outside is a priceless treasure.
But here, they are regarded as ornamental spiritual plants and planted randomly on the roadside.
"As expected of the palace where the princess lives, it is really rich and majestic!" Lin Fan said with emotion.
The hell dog leading the way immediately turned around and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Lin, this is your first time in the underworld and the ghost world. When you see these things, you will naturally feel worried. However, as I am used to seeing these, I think they are normal. However, I really admire your fellow Taoist’s determination.”
At the end of the sentence, the hell dog actually smiled strangely at Lin Fan.
Although he didn't say it explicitly, Lin Fan knew that what Hell Dog was talking about was that he had entered the Styx with the Dingbian Army for training.
But Lin Fan also knew that Hell Dog was Luo Li's confidant.
For things like this, although the other party said it casually, if he continued to ask, he would probably not say it. After that, he smiled faintly and had no intention of communicating with the other party in depth.
Only when the two of them came to a side courtyard of the palace did Hell Dog stop.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, the princess asked me to settle you here. You can go in by yourself, and everything will be like your own home. In addition, if Daoist Fellow needs anything, just tell me!" Hell Dog said politely.
Lin Fan smiled slightly and looked at Hell Dog with a strange look.
"Are you speaking the truth, fellow Daoist?"
"Haha, you have a close relationship with the princess' beloved daughter, how dare I lie to you?"
"If so, I want the Netherworld Spirit Flower, please pick it for me."
"This... Fellow Daoist Lin, please go to bed early, I still have a furnace of elixirs that I haven't finished refining, goodbye, goodbye!"
After the hellhound finished speaking, it immediately turned into a residual shadow and disappeared quickly in front of Lin Fan.
After Lin Fan looked at the direction where the hellhound disappeared and smiled strangely, he walked into the courtyard.
He didn't have the mind to think about everything in the courtyard at this moment.
After finding a secret room at random, carefully checking it, and setting up several anti-peeping formations, he sat quietly on a futon, silently recalling what happened these days.
There was no words for a while, just waiting for the dead of night.
When Lin Fan gradually entered the state of cultivation, a soft voice came from Lin Fan's ears.
"Master, wake up quickly, I have something to give you."
The person who spoke was Mu Yan.
Lin Fan opened his eyes and quickly glanced at the secret room.
After discovering that Mu Yan was not in the secret room, he smiled awkwardly.
With a thought, he released Mu Yan from the Niwan Palace.
"Yan'er, you are now free. Don't be so naughty in the future." Lin Fan said with a smile.
Mu Yan pouted her lips and looked at Lin Fan with resentment, saying, "Master, my father and mother are watching closely. I want to see you alone, but they don't allow it. I can only enter your Niwan Palace and come to find you. However, I brought you a good thing this time."
As she spoke, Mu Yan smiled happily.
With a flip of her palm, a black light appeared in front of the two of them in an instant.
At the same time, a carriage that was about ten feet long, dark all over, and carved with nine black dragons, suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.
Lin Fan glanced at it and was immediately surprised.
"Is this... the Yulong Ghost Car?"
