Chapter 5: Three Ways to Choose Evil Spirits
Hunting mutant beasts, the varied and powerless martial arts sword skills are not necessary at all.
Therefore, it was still the Five Tigers Broken Door Knife Technique under the control of the Tiger Spirit's sword intent to charge quickly, Shi Yinghu held a heavy stone knife that he had polished out in both hands and quickly pounced, but the tiger roar was certainly windy, but the blood-red giant crocodile was also as powerful as a dragon.
It already possessed a considerable degree of intelligence, and at this moment, it felt that someone was actually challenging its status as the top hunter, and in a fit of rage, it even took the initiative to crawl away from the river and rush towards Shi Yinghu.
The crawling degree of the mutant blood crocodile is actually quite slow, although it looks clumsy because of its large size, but in fact, it is really just a look, charging with scales and armor all around, and the momentum is like a roaring chariot.
Facing the rows of sturdy teeth like files, Shi Yinghu slashed at its front nose with great precision.
Hunters like this are extremely skilled in attacking, but they have relatively little experience in being attacked, and before the cataclysm, humans were attacked by crocodiles, and the most effective way to escape was to attack it.
Because it is difficult to escape, once the crocodile has attacked, it means that you are within its range of pounce, and the running degree of ordinary humans can not compete with the killing degree of the crocodile, attack it, let it hurt, these hunters will stop attacking momentum and reassess the threat of the prey in front of them, because if you are injured by predation in the wild, it is easy to hang up.
However, it was the crocodile before the cataclysm, the mutant blood crocodile after the cataclysm, from juvenile to adulterated, it could never avoid constant fighting and injury, Shi Yinghu counterattacked it at this moment, and the mutant blood crocodile suffered pain, but it continued to attack with a more ferocious attitude and degree.
Because it is looking for prey around, Shi Yinghu has no room to arrange hunting traps or anything, retreating, chopping, and swimming, and take it away from the Santu River as much as possible, and the crocodile is far away from the river, and the escape and combat ability will decline.
But this is an extremely dangerous process, and it is not only the mutant blood crocodile in front of him, but also the other Three Rivers Path trialists that may be encountered in this hunting process.
The mutant beast in front of him is afraid that there is a third order, although it is not an elite or a mutant, but it is also strong enough to be difficult to entangle, Shi Yinghu's straight line advance and retreat is not as fast as the other party, so he has to jump on the back of the mutant blood crocodile with gossip steps from time to time, glad that he still has shoes, and it is a steel plate inlaid on the soles, and it is an extremely strong martial arts boot, otherwise the blood crocodile's back full of barbs is not easy to stand firm at all.
The four-dimensional attributes of the mutant blood crocodile's offensive and defensive power are all better than Shi Yinghu's, but the sensitivity is inferior because of the relationship between the body structure, but Shi Yinghu also has his own disadvantages, the simple stone knife polished in his hand cannot be compared with the alloy war knife after all, and the attack power of the mutant blood crocodile is seriously insufficient, and even the knife edge drops stone chips.
There is no way, the bones and armor of these mutant beasts are even exaggerated existences that can compete with alloy weapons for hardness and toughness, and the conductivity of source energy is particularly excellent.
"Its size is huge, and its consumption is much greater than mine, and my physical internal strength has an advantage in long-term battle recovery, so it consumes with it!" Holding a stone knife in his hand, he stamped through the back and body of the mutant blood crocodile with the Bagua Wandering Dragon Step, and his attacks from time to time bleed while stimulating the giant beast to rage.
Ordinary humans run endurance on the plains, and can even tire horses to death, but Shi Yinghu's endurance and toughness are the most top-notch among his peers.
Of course, dance with such a behemoth: don't imitate, you can't even find the body if you're not careful. The mutant blood crocodile was angry, and Shi Yinghu was hungry, otherwise he didn't want to find such an opponent to seek excitement.
As the battle continued, the Scarlet Giant Crocodile's physical strength declined, but Shi Yinghu stepped on its back and slashed it horizontally, seizing the opportunity to cut off one of its eyes.
The mutant blood crocodile is known for its strong vitality and terrifying resilience, if there is no next battle, this mutant blood crocodile will even grow new eyes after a certain period of time, but unfortunately, Shi Yinghu will not give it a chance to regain its light.
After another period of time, after Shi Yinghu's attack weakened again, he suddenly threw his knife and pierced one of the remaining eyes of the blood-colored giant crocodile with his fist, and then he retreated sharply, allowing the terrifying dragon to flutter and struggle frantically, and after nearly an hour, the blood crocodile stopped after flowing a thick amount of blood.
"Hehe, you want to lie to me, I didn't get the source energy acquisition prompt, which means that you are not dead at all. "Picked up a stone, smashed it on the injured eye of the blood crocodile, after eating the pain, this mutant blood crocodile was once again alive and vigorous and infinitely vigorous, I am afraid that it has been tossing for most of the day, its last bit of strength was squeezed clean, when Shi Yinghu stabbed its heart with a knife, in fact, it was still sceiving, but it had no strength to resist at all.
β...... 427.2 source energy has been collected. β
Bowing his head, tearing the wound on the corpse of the mutant blood crocodile, sucking blood, the originally smelly plasma is like nectar in Shi Yinghu's mouth at this moment, because it can bring nutrition, strength, and hope to live.
Turn the corpse of the mutant blood crocodile over, cut it along the texture with a stone knife, and then find out the internal organs of this crocodile, which is relatively the most delicious food, when Shi Yinghu was full of blood and held a heart to gnaw, two furry beast-headed people approached not far away.
On the one hand, they were afraid of Shi Yinghu's strength, and on the other hand, they were also hungry, their eyes were fixed on the meat in Shi Yinghu's hands, and a greedy wolf-like light was revealed.
With a stone knife in his hand, he cut a large piece of meat and threw it over.
"Get out!"
People who are hungry are irrational, not to mention that the corpse of the mutant blood crocodile can't be eaten by itself, and it will soon rot, in this case, there is no need to fight with people for some rotten meat that they will definitely not be able to eat in their stomachs.
The two people pounced on the meat thrown by Shi Yinghu, grabbing and biting like a beast, Shi Yinghu felt that he could eat human flesh when he was hungry, that was because he had the ability to kill people, and he could also go to the river to fish for corpses, and for most of the trialists on the Three Rivers Road, killing people had to risk being counter-killed, and going to the river to fish for corpses was to face the danger of being swallowed by mutant beasts.
He was not full to the point of dying, although Shi Yinghu was hungry, he stopped after he was half full, and rested on the huge corpse of the mutant blood crocodile.
"Do you know how to get out, and if you know, say it, and I'll cut you a few more pieces of meat." In fact, Shi Yinghu couldn't carry the corpse of the mutant blood crocodile, and his words were simply that he didn't pay anything, and he wanted to set people's intelligence.
But Shi Yinghu also knows that this trick works in Santuhe, if the nutrition is insufficient for a long time, the energy will be more supplied to the body to maintain life, and the brain, which is a large energy consumer but does not maintain survival, will suffer from a decrease in energy supply.
"I've heard people say that...... Either find a guide to ferry, be led out of the Santu River, or wait until the river tide rises before the evil spirits have a chance to break out of the ghost gate. One of the two replied, although he said it was quite a myth and legend, and it was obviously a metaphorical answer, not even an answer, but Shi Yinghu still promised to get up and cut a large piece of meat for him and throw it to the other party.
"How can I find a guide to ferry, and how can I be considered a river tide?" Although even if you don't eat human flesh, you can survive in this Santu River, but the ghost wants to retire here, the longer Shi Yinghu stays here, the more he dreams of going out.
He has forgotten the time he has recorded, and sometimes he worries that more than a decade or even decades have passed.
Of course, Shi Yinghu himself also knew that this was an illusion caused by being too lonely and lonely, because with the reflection of the lake, his face had not changed at all, and the inner heaven and earth special effects of the Pure Yang Tongzi Gong did not say that it had the effect of prolonging life.
At this time, among the two beast-headed people, the one who had not spoken, he suddenly raised his hand, pointed behind Shi Yinghu and whispered vaguely: "Rise...... The tide is rising. β
Shi Yinghu turned around when he heard the sound, and saw that at some point, there was a rolling red and black Santu River, surging over. Indeed, there are three ways to go.
......
Legends of Hell
Just as there is only reincarnation that can cross life and death, there is only one way to cross the "Santu River", and that is the ferry boat on the "Santu River", and there is no other way.
However, the ferry has to pay a fare, and souls who have no travel expenses will not be able to board the ferry, and even if they do, they will be thrown into the "Santu River" by the boatmen.
Those souls who are unable to cross the river are driven by the desire for reincarnation and wade across the river, but the water of the "Three Ways River" is not only not buoyant, but also has a poison that can corrode the soul.
Those souls who go into the water will never have a chance to go ashore, and can only become water ghosts in the "Three Ways River". The pain of never being able to be reborn and the bone-chilling waters of the river make those water spirits jealous of other souls who still have the hope of reincarnation.
Therefore, whenever a soul falls into the water, they will rush to the top of the river, pull it to the bottom of the river, and become the same water ghosts as them.
......
The Hell Ghost Mansion is extremely powerful, and the Immortal Hades Emperor is even more like a terrifying existence like a god and demon, there is no doubt about it.
But after all, the world is material and realistic, and even the power of the fourth-order heavenly and human realm does not have the ability to think about one world, create things in the void, and manipulate the laws.
The mechanism of the Santuhe Trial Point in the Hell Ghost Mansion is mysterious when you don't figure it out, but if you lift the lid and say it clearly, it's actually the same thing:
The so-called guide ferry, that is, the middle and high-level existence in the Hell Ghost Mansion, who takes a fancy to someone at the Santu River trial site, and then jumps out of the trial rules to take him away from the Santu River trial point. And the so-called three-way impact on the ghost gate was what Shi Yinghu encountered at this moment.
"How can this Santu River look like a large bathtub?" At this moment, the basin stopper of this large bathtub was unplugged, and the surging red-black water vortex swept everything in it, in such a monstrous wave that was almost like the power of heaven and earth, the martial artists below the third-order legendary innate realm had no room to resist at all.
Fortunately, he was full at this moment, and Shi Yinghu used the stone knife in his hand to protect himself from being washed by the rapids on hard objects such as stone pillars and stone walls, but all he could do was this.
The icy and cold water of the River Styx soaked his body, and when the rapids carried him down, Shi Yinghu even saw the gray-robed woman, her body was purple and black, and she obviously used the secret method of self-realization to explode the air, trying to hold the stone pillar, but was directly slapped down by a big wave, and it was too difficult to resist in the current situation with each other's current cultivation.
After the cultivation of the Pure Yang Boy, the inner heaven and earth were small, and Shi Yinghu's body was under pressure, although he could not control his body, he also successfully protected himself from any injuries in this turbulent rapids.
The water flow was turbulent, first forming a huge water whirlpool downward, and then probably rushing to the east, because of the solid foundation of internal strength and the support of the dark energy around his body, Shi Yinghu did not faint, and he retained his consciousness to be clear.
..................
A huge dungeon with luxurious but terrifying ghost reliefs everywhere.
Today is the day when the middle-level disciples of the Hell Ghost Mansion choose to read together, and most of the disciples of the Netherworld's mother-in-law, the many disciples of the Five Prison Elders, and even the middle level of the Hell Ghost Mansion will come here today to choose an excellent "companion", "assistant" or "weapon".
Only the middle-level disciples and deacons were qualified to wear different robes, while the low-level disciples who were guarding the surroundings with swords were dressed in iron armor and had a ghost face covering their faces, and they were not even qualified to show their faces.
"Alas, this ghost gate is only opened once in two years, I don't know what kind of goods will be sent this time, the emperor cultivates divine skills, so Wangxiangtai must not be opened, this time I must choose a good choice, the last time I read with less than two months was played to death, this time I must find a tough body. "The tunnel that flows slowly around the black and red river is a table of jade tables, melons and fruits, delicacies and wine.
A bright and brightly dressed, scantily clad beauty, in a white robe and snow-shouldered beauty, was now holding two pale-faced male pets beside her to indulge in wine and fun, while she complained to her companions around her.
There were many people around her, and the melons and fruits on the jade table in front of them were also abundant, with green jade cups and fishy wine syrup, and their colors reflected.
Yin Caixia, as the proud disciple of the Netherworld's mother-in-law, although her major exercises are not Netherworld ghost claws, and she is also disliked by the Netherworld Mother-in-law because of her indulgence, but her skills are profound, and her true qi accumulation is not inferior to that of the world's famous masters, and she is a third-order celebrity, and she has really done a lot of great things for the Netherworld Mother-in-law with her strong skills and ruthless wrists.
She was originally the fifth disciple of the Netherworld, but now she has become a senior sister, and she is also widely recognized in the Hell Ghost Mansion as the heir who is most likely to inherit the status of the Netherworld.
And the one who sang against her was Yan Keke, who was a relict of the ghost mansion, and the still slightly immature girl sat opposite Yin Caixia, surrounded by some people.
Yan Keke's grandfather Yan Dingjiang is the fierce and stubborn person who created the top zombie boxing, a generation of legendary powerhouses, Yan Keke inherited his grandfather's talent, and his talent ability: "Ghost Realm".
Once the ability is activated, the "ghost realm" within the range can generate and impact the mind, and it can also control the corpse to control the dead air, this talent really complements the ghost claw.
Yan Keke is also favored by the Netherworld Mother-in-law because of her superb talent and her own temperament, but the problem is also that because of her own temperament, Yan Keke, as a disciple of the Netherworld, is difficult to share the worries of the master, plus she is too young, no matter how much she is favored, there are still not many people who are optimistic about Yan Coco's future.
In particular, Coco also makes the Netherworld mother-in-law angry from time to time because of her own temperament, and this master-apprentice friendship is only a loss and no supplement, and it will be exhausted one day.
However, at least at this moment, there is still a group of people gathered around Yan Keke, who have been bullied by Yin Caixia before, especially the sixth disciple Wei Lingshuang, her surrender allows Yan Keke to at least compete with Yin Caixia, so that she will not be completely overwhelmed.
Beside these white-robed female disciples who were like beautiful female ghosts in the underworld, there were several tall gray-skinned giants holding chains and flying claws.
These are ghost slaves trained by the secret method of the underworld, each of them has the combat power of the third order, has been erased, and is loyal to the master, Yin Caixia has been born and died for the Netherworld Mother-in-law over the years, and there are only two ghost slaves in her hands to decorate the faΓ§ade, but Coco is surrounded by seven heads, two of which were brought by Wei Lingshuang, and the remaining five were all given to Yan Keke by the Netherworld Mother-in-law.
"You say...... What did the Nether Elder think in his heart? Is her future heir Yin Caixia or this Yan Coco? Saying that she doesn't feel sorry for Yan Coco, she gave the five-headed ghost slave guard in one breath, saying that she is distressed, isn't this pleading Yin Caixia to death and talking about Coco?"
"Who knows, Hades Po's body has deteriorated in the past ten years, and it has reached the point where the medicine stone can't be recovered, and I don't know if it can last until the emperor comes out, but she still clings to power at all, in her heart she may be inclined to Yan Coco, but if she can't support Yan Coco to grow up, she can only hand over everything to Yin Caixia. β
"I don't think so, the old lady has been sick for many years, but I think our brother is dead, and she can continue to live. "It's not just the disciples of the Underworld who are dressed in white robes and bright like female ghosts, the disciples of the elders of the Five Prisons are dressed in red and black, and the deacon in the palace is dressed in yellow, they are all waiting for the ghost gate to open on both sides of the river.
It was also at this time that the sound of turbulent water was finally heard in the distance, and surging black and red blood waves poured down, the more powerful these ghost mansion disciples were, the more they were entrenched in a good and relatively upstream location.
Because according to the experience of previous years, the stronger the strength and the more able to control themselves, the more the "evil ghosts" will stop upstream, if they go all the way down, the lowest reaches of the Santu Styx are the rotten pools, where they are extremely poisonous and difficult for the living to survive.
"Right now, huh!"
When the castration of the Styx River that was enveloping him stopped for a while, Shi Yinghu suddenly took out the knife with a low cry, and with the blessing of dark energy and true qi, he stabbed the thick-backed stone knife in his hand into the stone crack on the side of his side, and stuck his body.
The blood waves were surging over, gritting his teeth and insisting, in this gap, Shi Yinghu vaguely saw figures on both sides of the stone wall.
It's not just Shi Yinghu, the gray-eyed woman untied her robe in the river, grabbed the mountain stone beside her naked like a swimming fish, and forcibly stabilized her body, and there was a strong man, who was extremely pure, stepped into the river with iron pillar-like feet and stabilized her body, not only people, but even mutated blood crocodiles and other strange beasts.
After waiting for a stalemate for an unknown amount of time, the river was far away, and the river channel was still flowing beyond the calf, and at this time, Shi Yinghu suddenly pulled out his knife and pounced sideways, avoiding the bite of a mutant blood crocodile that was also washed down.
"It's the smell of other mutant blood crocodiles on me, beast, this sense of smell is very sensitive. When Shi Yinghu was holding a knife and looking at the strange beast in front of him, he couldn't take into account that there was a large group of people around him who were also looking down at the scene in the river.
Iron chains fell from both sides, and the next moment, the ghost-faced warriors/low-level disciples of the Hell Ghost Mansion slid down with a knife in one hand and a chain in the other, and then they killed anyone who looked weaker with a knife.
Many of the Trialists were exhausted at this moment, and the opponents were heavily armed and often bare-handed, so a large number of Trialists were directly slashed in a short period of time, but not all of them.
Shi Yinghu was chased and bitten by a mutant blood crocodile, because there was no ghost-faced warrior who would mix in the past to find excitement.
The gray woman's hand was claw-shaped, and she burst into the arms of a ghost-faced warrior at close range, elbowing her arm to break through the shelf, and the next moment she pressed the ghost-faced warrior's neck, smashing the back of his head into the protrusion of the stone wall on the side, and snatched his knife with her backhand regardless of whether the opponent was dead or not.
Just now, the strong man who used the jack pendant was strong, and the close-quarters capture was even more ferocious, he didn't even take the knife, so he smashed the ghost-faced warrior to the stone wall with his bare hands with the momentum of the surrounding mountains and rocks, and every moment he succeeded, he was killed by broken bones and tendons, and every ghost-faced warrior who was attached to the stone wall was broken like a tomato, and the scene was once that he was chasing the ghost-faced warrior to kill.
For these outstanding "evil ghosts", on the stone walls on both sides, from time to time, chain claws fly out, once the trialist is pulled by the chain claws on one side, they will soon be dragged out of the river and reach both sides of the river.
But if you are unfortunate enough to be grabbed by the chain claws from both sides at the same time...... One of the trialists was dragged into the air, torn apart from the middle.
In the process of entanglement with the mutant blood crocodile, Shi Yinghu slashed at the back of a ghost-faced warrior with a backhand, snatched the knife in the opponent's hand between the splits, and started with the iron weapon, although it was not his usual model, but Shi Yinghu's knife combat power still exploded.
"Hum, roar!"
The thick-bladed scimitar started, and with a shake, the strength penetrated through the blade, and the knife roared in response to the muscles and bones, and even a giant tiger groaned faintly in the void.
It was like a moonlit night tiger groaning, and the roaring sword light shrouded the mutant blood crocodile in front of him.
