_Chapter 162: Lethe River
The snow-covered mountains are like a fairyland, and it is breathtaking. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoBetween the continuous snowy peaks, there are countless rare elixirs and strange beasts.
Once again, the sun was shining on the top of the mountain, shining brightly in the reflection of the snow.
On the outskirts of the Drifting Mountains, small beasts run out of their hiding caves, some foraging for food, others lazily enjoying the rare sunshine.
Somewhere in a mountain stream, a spotted python hid in the dark, a pair of dark green eyes staring at not far away.
It is one of the best drinking points on the riverbank, the terrain is gentle, the water is not slow, and it is inevitable to fall into the river and be washed away by the water, and many weak animals will choose to drink there.
As usual, the spotted python hid near the water point, silently waiting for its prey to come to the door. Because today it is not at all worried about not having enough to eat because of the sun.
Sure enough, it had just arrived, and a snow hare as round as a ball ran over.
Snow rabbits have bright red eyes, like magnificent rubies, constantly changing directions as they run, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, as the lowest level of the food chain, the necessary alertness is the key to their survival.
Seeing the arrival of the snow rabbit, the eyes of the spotted python in the dark finally moved, it seemed that it seemed to be a little hesitant, the rabbit was too small, to eat or not, it was really a problem.
But soon the big snake still made up his mind, eat it, no matter how small the rabbit is, it is also meat, and the continuous heavy snow has made it not eat for several days.
The snow rabbit did not realize that he was approaching the path of death, and still walked with a bewitching pace in his self-righteousness. It didn't take long for it to finally reach the drinking point.
Carefully observing the surroundings, seeing that there was no sign of danger, the snow rabbit lowered his head, he could drink the living water, who would want to drink the cold snow water?
However, at the moment when it lowered its head, with a "whoosh", a spotted python shot out, and before it was close, the big mouth that opened one hundred and eighty degrees was stinking and squirting.
The snow rabbit's body trembled, and the soul was rushing, instinctively wanting to escape, but was so smoked by the smell that he had no strength, and could only watch the hideous snake head get closer and closer.
And just when the snow hare gave up the treatment, something suddenly floated out of the river, it was a black mist that could not be seen clearly, as if it would dissipate at any time.
The black fog appeared silently, and the color was lighter when the faint sunlight of the mountain stream shone on it.
Seeing that it was about to be dissipated by the sun, suddenly it jumped up, as if seeing a life-saving straw, and turned into a black line and quickly shot into the center of the snow rabbit's eyebrows.
Then, in the triumphant eyes of the spotted python, the body of the snow rabbit shook violently, as if it had suddenly become another creature, and its whole body exuded an evil and cold aura.
The fur turned from white to black, the ruby eyes turned gray and full of life, and the body swelled wildly as if it had been blown.
What's even more incredible is that the rabbit actually stood up, black and shiny claws poking out between the fingers of its limbs, and a strange evil sneer appeared on the face of a fluffy rabbit.
"Whew!"
With a bang, the weird rabbit swooped down on the spotted python, and the posture seemed to have completed the direct transformation from prey to hunter.
Before the spotted python could understand what was happening, it was bitten through the vital point by seven inches, and soon lost its strength and stopped moving.
As soon as the blow was successful, the rabbit smiled strangely, and immediately opened his rabbit lips to show his fangs, and began to enjoy a feast of snake meat. The extremely eerie scene is creepy.
This is not an isolated scene, but one that takes place in many parts of the Drifting Mountains. Over time, it is even expected that there will be a tendency to spread beyond the mountains.
"When, when, when......"
In the center of the Drifting Mountains, the ancient bell rings. The sound of the ninety-nine eighty-one bells echoed among the mountains, and in an instant, countless demon birds and feathered cranes rose to the sky and gathered towards the largest square of the Drifting Snow Pavilion.
Soon, on a huge square inside the mountain gate of the Drifting Snow Pavilion, thousands of disciples were looking forward to it, and everyone had different opinions.
"What the hell is it that actually rang the ninety-nine-eighty-one ancient bell?"
"It's been so long since I've been in the house, and I've heard the ancient bell ring only a handful of times, why is it that it has rang eighty-one times all at once?"
"Doesn't it mean that the eighty-one bells must not be ringed unless the door is in danger? Could it be that the devil thieves are pouring out to destroy my Drifting Snow Pavilion? ”
Just when everyone was puzzled, a figure came from the sky and landed straight on the high platform in the center of the square.
"Heroes emerge from troubled times. Rank Drifting Snow Pavilion disciples, the time has come to test you. Not long ago, the Heavenly Pillar Peak collapsed, and the ancient Styx River Lechuan River appeared, and countless demon souls were in chaos......
In short, I hope that everyone will work together to kill the wandering demons with all their might, and station them around Tianzhu Peak with all their might. Within three days, someone from the dynasty and even Zhu Tianyu would definitely come to settle the matter. As soon as he came to power, the man seriously launched a combat mobilization.
At the same time, the Daqian Dynasty and even the Zhu Tianyu continued to have undercurrents everywhere.
"The Heavenly Pillar has collapsed, and the Demon Water of Lethe River has spread wantonly, a bad omen, a bad omen...... Whoever comes, send orders down, quickly mobilize forces inside and outside the government and the opposition, and be sure to control the matter and not disturb the people's hearts. Also, prepare quickly, I want to bathe and change clothes, and invite my ancestors to go out of the mountain! "In the depths of the palace, a middle-aged man was wearing a purple gold dragon robe, and his aura was magnificent.
"The pillar of heaven collapsed, and the Lechuan River reappeared in the world. After tens of thousands of years, the two worlds have intersected again, which is the image of the return of troubled times. Come on, pass the order, from now on, our clan will abolish the rules of escapism for 10,000 years, and the children of all families should practice diligently, so that the demeanor of our clan will spread to the world. "A certain hidden family, a rugged old man watching the stars at night, his face is full of grandeur.
"Lethe River, you have finally reappeared, in this way, my Netherworld Demon Dao is destined to prosper and dominate the world...... Come on, from now on, all disciples should be brave and diligent, and they must not passively avoid fighting in the face of provocation......" A certain demon sect, the long-faced man looked up to the sky and laughed wildly.
A similar situation occurred in every corner of Zhu Tianyu and even the Xingwu Continent, and for a while, the major races of humans, demons, and demons, the major dynasties, hidden families, and even super sects and other forces were all gearing up and eager to try.
Misfortune and blessing rely on, and blessing and misfortune lurk.
For ordinary people, the reappearance of the Lethe River definitely means a great disaster. However, for those powerful dynasties, hermit families, and even ancient sects, the troubled times were not an opportunity.
After thousands of years of dormancy and development, there have been many forces that are not satisfied with the status quo, whether they are strong or weak, they all want to get more say.
In this way, breaking the old order and pattern and establishing a new order has become the demand of the vast majority of forces.
Now, the reappearance of the Lethe River in the world, even if it will eventually be resealed, is tantamount to providing an excellent fuse.
With the advent of the Lethe River, countless dynasties restarted the war, and the smoke was filled; Countless hidden families have appeared in a high-profile manner and reappeared in front of people; Countless ancient sects have opened mountains to accept disciples, and they have conquered the world......
The tide of the times, the rolling general trend, no one can resist at all, the troubled times, finally arrived!
In the troubled times, only the ultimate demon, the ultimate genius, and the ultimate strong can dominate the tide of the times and lead the unpredictable!
It is conceivable that in the next few decades or even hundreds of years, there will be many geniuses and demons, which is another real martial arts prosperous era, which can be described as a world of great contention!
And the precursor to the opening of this world of great controversy is that one by one the warriors bravely broke into the dangerous area, one by one the new or old secret realms were discovered, one by one different levels of the big competition opened, and one by one the young girls with ancient inheritances walked out of the deep mountains.
……
There is no road in the Yellow Spring, and there is no shore in the Lethe River.
In the endless darkness, a piece of solid ice floated in the black Lechuan River, not knowing where it came from or where it was going.
Every day, countless revenant spirits swim past the ice, most of them swimming away with expressionless faces, but some of them are also extremely fierce, trying to break through the ice and devour the people inside.
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly one day, a little bit of light blue appeared inside the ice, it was a small scale, it looked crystal clear, extremely beautiful.
The power of the scales spread in the form of blue light, and gradually, the ice melted, and the figure of the white-haired man was revealed.
"Where am I?"
"Why is there the sound of water all around?"
"The water is so cold, what do they want to do? Seems to want to wash away something that belongs to me? ”
Gradually, the man became conscious, and then questions were born. I don't know how long I thought about it, and my head was about to crack, but finally, he remembered everything.
His name is Chu Chen, and he was originally watching the sunrise at Tianzhu Peak with Junling, and then ...... In the end, he decided to break the kettle and directly summon the Ice Moon Saint Monarch, and he didn't know what happened next.
"Am I dead or not?" The disconnect in his memory made Chu Chen very distressed, because he couldn't figure out the current situation at all.
I couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't think about it anymore, and stroked his hands vigorously. The water was very strange and very buoyant, and it was only with great difficulty that he came to the surface.
The first time he showed his head, he instinctively took a deep breath, and then frowned.
"Where the hell is this? The smell in the air is so strange, cold and deadly silent, is it a place for the dead? Thinking that he might be dead, his heart sank.
No one wants to die on their own, especially if they are still conscious.
Finally calming himself down, Chu Chen opened his eyes and tried to look at the things around him. According to his thoughts, if he really died, his vision would no longer be limited by the naked eye, and he should be able to see things around him.
Sure enough, he saw a dim world on the river, and countless souls were floating, being hit down and sinking by black waves, and could no longer float.
"It turned out to be really dead." There was a sigh in his heart, but it didn't take long for his attention to be distracted: "Could this be the Ancient Styx?" I remember it's called Lethe, right? Lethe River, once you enter the water of Lethe, you will never look back, and the past will all disappear......"
The memory of the Lethe River was recalled in his mind, but soon Chu Chen froze, didn't he say that the soul that entered the Lethe River would lose his memory? Why does he remember everything so clearly?
