Chapter Eighty-Five: The River of Souls Awakens
The body of the Soul River is not deep, and it is estimated that it is only five or six meters deep because of the heavy damage.
Theo did not fall to the bottom of the river before he was held up by an invisible force and suspended in the river. Due to Theo's entry, the Soul River had already had a faint reaction, and the water of the Soul River was somewhat warm, gently wrapping Theo's body.
Theo closed his eyes and felt carefully. The thin lips opened lightly, and the clear chanting echoed in the river.
"As a child of the River Styx, I call to you, please let the Skull Realm flourish again. Wake up!"
The water of the Soul River began to ripple, gradually turning from slight to boiling.
Yuna, who was standing on the shore, looked at the surface of the Soul River rolling in front of her, and exclaimed in surprise:
"Did you succeed? Your Excellency has succeeded, and the Soul River has woken up!"
Listening to the sound of waves in their ears, Rindong and Saad fell to the ground again, trembling with excitement. Great! The Mother River, which had been silent for 100,000 years, has completely awakened!
"Yes, Your Majesty?"
A faint phantory figure appeared in front of Theo, a little rippling due to the phantom formed by the water waves. It's the Spirit of the River of Souls!
Theo opened his eyes, looked fixedly at the phantom in front of him, and smiled with satisfaction:
"You've finally woken up, Soul River!"
The spirit of the soul river carefully perceived, but found that the person in front of him was extremely young and unfamiliar. It is clearly not the majestic Lord Hades, the one who has cultivated himself and stepped into the supreme position step by step. However, on his body, there is a clear carrier of the reincarnation book, and there is a strong aura exclusive to the River Styx, which cannot be faked.
"Who are you, young man?"
The Spirit of the Soul River didn't do anything, just asked calmly.
"I was born in the River Styx, and you can call me the Child of the River Styx, or you can call me by my name, Theo. ”
The figure of the Spirit of the Soul River was a little trance:
"The great Styx, does it still exist?"
As a tributary of the River Styx, 100,000 years ago, the Soul River clearly felt that the River Styx was finally disconnected from itself, and what did the disconnection represent? There is no doubt that it is the disappearance of the River Styx, the complete disappearance. But at that time, Hades did not lose contact with him, so when he first woke up, Soul River mistakenly thought that Hades had awakened him. After all, he is the only one who has this ability.
"Of course! Styx is still there, but imprisoned in the chaotic space. I'm sorry to tell you that the last generation of Hades has fallen!"
The inspiration of the soul river responded, and it was true that he could no longer perceive the existence of the Hades of the previous generation. Its figure shook violently as if it had been battered, as if it was difficult to accept this fact. The waves on the river were even more turbulent, and they roared incessantly as they crashed against each other.
Theo said softly:
"Please mourn!"
It took a long time for the Spirit of the Soul River to stabilize his emotions.
"The Children of Styx represent the will of Styx. Theo, you are the future King of the Nether, and I still want to thank you for all you do. ”
Theo smiled:
"I was born with a mission, and reviving the Netherworld is my duty to revive the Netherworld. Everything is done, as it should be. I should thank you seniors for the great sacrifice you have made for the Netherworld!"
The Spirit of the Soul River had a calm voice, and her figure gradually became clearer, looking at the silhouette, it seemed to be a woman. It's just that her figure is erratic, male and female are difficult to distinguish, sometimes thick and sometimes cold.
"What do you want me to do?"
Theo didn't think about it, and said directly:
"I'll soon leave the Skull Realm and head to the Corpse Realm, and then all the way to the Samsara Domain. Before leaving, I hope you can awaken all the soul arrays in the Skull Domain, and also, the Skull Plains!"
The Spirit of the Soul River replied:
"This is my duty! It's just that in its current state, it may only be possible to awaken the soul arrays of the four Skull Plains. After gradually recovering in the future, I will open the soul array of the whole domain one by one, please rest assured!"
The surprise attack of the angel army has caused great damage to the Soul River, and she has just woken up, she is extremely weak, and it is the limit to be able to restart the Four Great Skull Plains.
"That's it, that's fine! Then I'll turn back to the ground first, and the rest will be up to you!"
The phantom of the Spirit of the Soul River bowed slightly to Theo:
"Walk slowly!"
Before leaving, Theo turned back and said apologetically:
"I'm sorry, Soul River! Now in the entire Netherworld, I'm afraid that the combat power of the Hades God does not exist, and in a short period of time, no one can come to protect you!"
The Spirit of the River of Souls bowed down again:
"It's okay, I still have the ability to protect myself, please don't worry about it! Compared with reorganizing the Netherworld as soon as possible, the soul river is not enough to worry about!"
Theo nodded, his body moving slightly, and he floated upward. The reincarnation book rubbed twice on the phantom of the Spirit of the Soul River, and then followed Theo's back.
The spirit of the soul river sighed faintly, full of melancholy:
"Don't even the gods of the underworld exist? What kind of catastrophe is going through the Netherworld? When will you return? Will this new king be able to take on such a heavy mission?"
。。。。。。
Theo surfaced and stepped onto the riverbank.
Yuna hurriedly greeted her, and sure enough, seeing Theo's masculine body head-on, Yuna forgot to look away for a while, and a flush appeared on her cheeks.
"Look, look!
Sade slapped the cold winter on the side with his elbow, full of melon-eating appearance.
"I'm not blind, so naturally I saw it!"
Rindon replied angrily. Although the tone is cold, the gaze is very playful.
"Big, sir..."
Yuna hung her head in shame and looked at her toes. Theo was also a little embarrassed, I really don't know what this little girl thinks!
"Still not giving me your robes?"
Theo was angry and funny, so he whispered angrily.
Yuna sighed, and handed over the robe in her hand slightly, and she didn't forget to glance at Theo, quite an unfinished aftertaste.
Theo took it, flicked his wrist, and put it back on his body.
"Let's go!"
As if forgetting the scene just now, Theo calmly passed by Yuna and walked straight away.
"Oh!"
Yuna lowered her head, her two little hands helplessly tugged at the corners of her clothes, and hurriedly chased after her with small steps.
"What are you two laughing at? Funny?"
Walking up to Rin Winter and Sade, he found that the two were whispering, and they were holding back a faint smile in their ears. Theo's brow furrowed slightly, his eyes wide in anger.
"No... Not... The subordinates don't dare!"
However, Sade had a flexible brain and immediately changed the topic:
"Congratulations to the master, you have successfully awakened the Soul River, this move is really a great blessing for our Skull Domain, a great blessing for the Netherworld. The light of the master will shine on the entire netherworld, changing the color of the nine heavens and dishonoring the gods. Sade's admiration for his master is like the water of the Yangtze River, and the water of the Yellow River is gushing...
Winter was shocked, Yuna was shocked. Has this kid honed his kung fu to such perfection?
Theo heard a chill and interrupted Shad with a wave of his hand:
"Alright, alright. Although the Soul River has awakened, it can only open four skeleton plains in the short term, let's go back to Thousand Bones City first, and we don't have to worry about this side for the time being. ”
When a few people appeared at the entrance of the cave, they were squatting with Canaan, half of their heads stuffed into the entrance of the cave, and they looked inside, obviously they couldn't see anything, and the two of them just couldn't help it. When he saw Theo and the others appear, he couldn't wait to ask:
"How's it going?"
Theo nodded, and then said rather speechlessly:
"Can you two move your heads out first? Are you going to eat me here?"
No, the entrance to the cave was tightly stuffed, and there was no gap for passage at all.
When Theo walked out of the cave, suddenly the whole stone cave shook violently, and the roar resounded in everyone's ears, and the direction seemed to come from the ground.
"Go up and see what's going on!"
Theo took Yuna by the hand and jumped on the back of the person who was leaving. Due to the unknown situation, the speed of the group rising was very fast, no less than the speed of the fall.
After returning to the surface from the crater, the scene in front of them shocked everyone.
In the center of the Skull Plains, a pillar of green light rose into the sky, and the pillar of light lasted for a long time, and the trace of energy surrounded it, and slowly fell to the ground. It's the Soul Array! The Soul River has opened the Soul Array! From a distance, there are three same pillars of light standing between heaven and earth in the northwest, northwest, and south directions. Four Plains of Skulls, all revived.
The Soul River did not rest, and as soon as he woke up, he used his energy to forcibly open the four soul arrays of the Skull Plain. He expressed his full support for Theo with his actions.
The green soul fire that fell from the pillar of light seeped into the bones on the ground. A loud roar resounded through the heavens and the earth, and skeletons continued to resurrect, crawling up and roaring wildly in the sky.
"Whew..."
In the midst of these chaotic roars, there were several dragon moans, which reached everyone's ears far away. It was the west, and the bone-dragon clan was resurrected.
"Dragons ... It's our dragons!"
No one was more sure than him that this was the roar of the dragons. The already extinct bone dragon clan has given birth to a new life, and he is no longer alone!
The resurrected skeletons had no consciousness or the slightest stellarity, just a blank roar, announcing that they had come to this world.
There were also many skeletons, fighting on the spot, fighting out of instinct, killing each other, then digging out the soul fire, stuffing it into their mouths, and then turning around and killing another opponent. There are also some skeletons, stumbling away from the battlefield, in all directions, scattering, towards unknown places.
This is the law of survival in the Skull Domain, the law of origin, Theo and the others did not stop it, the area of the Skull Plain is too large, and such things happen everywhere, how to stop it? Even if it is stopped this time, can it stay here to stop it?
"Let's go, go back to Thousand Bones City!"
Theo patted the person who was still in a state of shock, and everyone shook their heads helplessly, flew into the air, and turned back in the direction of Thousand Bones City.
This day was later known as the opening day of the first year of Theo Netherworld.
On this day, Theo, the king of Hades, officially proclaimed the unification of the Skull Domain, and Canaan, the god of death, became the first Lord of the Skull Domain of the new Netherworld. The Skull Domain abolished the division of the four realms, and divided the entire domain into eighteen cities in the southeast, east, and west, which were directly led by the domain lord.
On this day, Theo, the king of Hades, awakened the soul river that had been sleeping for 100,000 years, and the four skeleton plains were reactivated, and countless skeleton races were resurrected, in addition to the extinct bone dragon race, there were also many unheard of ancient skeleton races were resurrected. The emergence of these new forces is constantly filling the strength of each city, and new strong people are constantly emerging. For this reason, the most solid foundation was laid for the subsequent divine war.
After Theo returned to Thousand Bones, after a heated debate among the generals, he issued a military order that shocked the Skull Domain.
A large army will be sent to the Four Great Skull Plains to be stationed on a permanent basis, and the army will officially take over the chaotic situation in the Skull Plains. The newly born skeletons of various races will be controlled by the army as soon as possible to prevent them from fighting each other. Then take them to various cities for screening and training, helping them awaken their spiritual wisdom as soon as possible and enhance their strength.
Considering the concentration of races, it will become a new ethnic power, affecting the balance between the cities in the Skull Domain. These races were divided into cities and prevented from living in groups.
This point was brought up by Yuna again. It also played a crucial role in the unity of the Skull Domain in the future. Under the discipline of the city and the military, the races lived in harmony, regardless of each other, and there was never a racial war.
Since then, the Skull Domain, even though it has experienced many ups and downs, has always been the most solid divine weapon in the hands of the Hades, and it is indisputable!
