Chapter 439: Reunion
Gu Yan stood in front of the river, thought for a while, and felt that he should cross the river first, if he followed the direction of the river, he really didn't know when and what month he would arrive. She looked at the rolling river, and suddenly felt that it was somewhat similar to the water of the River Styx that she had seen when she first came to the underground, but the color of the river here was lighter than what she saw that time, and other book friends looked at it normally:.
The water of the River Styx that I saw that time was completely black, as if it could suck everything into it, but this time the water was almost colorless, with a strong sense of silence. Gu Yan released a trace of divine thought, and immediately sensed that there was a strong coolness in the river water, which was conveyed to his sea of consciousness, making him almost groan in pain.
She thought about what Xia Ruoqiu had told herself, on this kind of water, she couldn't fly at all, let alone use mana, otherwise gravity would suck people straight down, and after falling into the water, they would be corroded to the point that there were no bones left. She thought about it for a moment, then took out the vermilion mirror, and a white light shone towards the opposite side.
After Xiao Jiang used the purple golden pupil to remove the surrounding fog, the white light of the Zhu Yan mirror could reach hundreds of zhang away, Gu Yan saw the situation on the opposite side, and was immediately surprised, there was no riverbed on the opposite side, behind the river, it was a cliff that towered into the sky, and there was no end in sight, and there was no way to go at all!
This is probably not difficult to explain that the water surface of this river weishenme is higher than the riverbed, because the water itself carries a strong gravity, and the other side is facing a cliff, and a large part of the liliang is offset by the mountain rocks, so it is not surprising that this side is higher than the riverbed.
But where did they go? Gu Yan took a look at the direction of the river again, and there was no end in sight from a distance, and her intuition told her that Zhancheng was not following the river, and there was no trace left by them here.
She suddenly thought. From the first floor of the dungeon, I went down the tunnel, and then I went to the second layer, passing through the stone forest, the Five Fire Domain. Coming to the Netherworld River again, further is already a dead end, but according to the style of the builder of the dungeon. There should be more than two floors in the dungeon, there should be an entrance, go to the lower floor. A bold thought welled up in her mind. Is it to show them the city. Did you go to the bottom of the river?
It's not impossible! Zhancheng They came all the way here, so there are only two ways to go, one is to go along the river, but according to Gu Yan's feeling, this river should originate from the far end of the ground, and then flow along here, it is a ring with high front and low back, if you go along the river. It is likely to be a dead end, or to return to the original point after a lot of hardship, the builder of the dungeon. It is absolutely unconscionable to build the entrance at the source of a river, :.
As long as what Lu Xuanji said is not false. Their destination is really this Netherworld, so it is very likely that they have entered the bottom of the river!
Gu Yan looked at the turbulent water, but did not make a sound, frowned and pondered, she suddenly remembered, wouldn't there be some demon beasts hidden at the bottom of the river like the Five Fire Domain? Then she burst into laughter, in the waters of the River Styx, even monks are difficult to survive, what kind of demon beast can lurk here for thousands of years. But this raises a new question, how did they get to the exhibition city?
According to Xia Ruoqiu, the water of the River Styx can corrode all the talisman weapons used by the monks, and it can also continuously erode the spiritual energy of the monks, causing them to die at the bottom of the river due to the exhaustion of their spiritual energy. So unless there is a secret passage here, they must have used some method that they don't know.
Gu Yan took a stone and threw it on the water, without even splashing, and then sank silently, Gu Yan suddenly felt that the river contained an extremely strong yin qi, and there was a dead silence aura, this breath made her feel very familiar, but for a while she couldn't remember where she had seen it. But she was sure she must have seen it, or suffered from it.
At this time, a gust of wind blew, and the big waves on the water stood up, several feet higher than the river surface, and a drop of water splashed on Gu Yan's face, she popped it out with her fingers, and then the moonless bow on her back suddenly sounded silently and self-resonant. There was a "buzz" sound, the bowstring fluttered, and the sound was muffled.
Gu Yan suddenly remembered, isn't this kind of yin qi the kind of dead qi that he lived on the mountain peak that day, drew the Taiyin qi into his body in the middle of the night, and then invaded the meridians in his body? If it weren't for the effect of the Guiyuan Arrow, I am afraid that my meridians would be seriously injured. Could it be that there is any connection between this Netherworld River and the Missing Moon Sycamore and the Guiyuan Arrow?
Gu Yan took the Missing Moon Bow from his back and held it in his hand, and sure enough, the sound on the bowstring was even louder, as if it was rhythmically resonating with the waves on the water. She looked at the flow of the river, and suddenly had a strange idea, the end of this dark river, will not lead to the peak where she lived at the time, with the river water to moisten the lack of moon sycamore, the introduction of the yin qi, in addition to being absorbed by the lack of moon sycamore, the rest of the brain has been sucked into the river water, other book friends look at it normally:.
The idea, while somewhat whimsical, is not impossible. Gu Yan took out the Guiyuan arrow from his arms, put his bow on the string, and shot it out with one arrow at the rolling river!
With a golden brilliance, the Guiyuan arrow flew out of the string, like a flaming dragon, rushing straight down towards the river. At the moment when the Guiyuan Arrow approached the surface of the river, all the waves were strangely still, the water surface became rippled, and then the Guiyuan Arrow quickly sank into the river.
Even Xiao Jiang looked at the water surface in a little daze, I don't know what trick Gu Yan is playing, has this master learned some new spells, why is the surface of the river so choppy and suddenly made by her to be still?
The Guiyuan arrow was like a stone thrown by Gu Yan, silently sinking into the lake, Gu Yan thought she was wrong, then she saw that the river suddenly changed color, a layer of red gushed up from under the water surface, as if there was a volcano erupting under the water, and then the water surface suddenly became boiling, countless bubbles kept rising, and pieces of water vapor filled the entire sky.
Gu Yan immediately released the Zhu Yan Mirror to protect his body, but he was almost splashed on his face, and Xiao Jiang let out a "woo" cry of dissatisfaction, as if he was protesting that this master had made it water, and this water also made its body extremely uncomfortable.
But Gu Yan didn't bother to pay attention to it, at this time she was looking at the bottom of the river in surprise, this column of water rising into the sky, so that the center of the Netherworld River, there was a hollow pit, this big pit was like an upside-down cone, exposing a large area of space underground.
She had a clear view of the bottom of the river, an undulating land with low hills and a circular gap in between, where an active volcano erupted. There were more than a dozen people standing around, led by Zhancheng!
Lu Xuanji stood beside him, and not far from Zhancheng's side, Xia Ruoqiu was still standing, but her face was like frost at this time, looking at the Guiyuan arrow nailed to the crater, and she didn't say a word.
Gu Yan made a move with her hand, and the Guiyuan arrow flew up, and flew back into her hand again, she looked at Xiangxia with a smile, "Brother Zhan, Fairy Xia, we meet again!" ”
Zhan Cheng couldn't help but smile bitterly, he had an unprecedented sense of frustration at this time, in terms of identity, he was the young master of the Demon Sect, and he had been planning this ancient tomb for a long time, and the other party was just a casual cultivator who happened to meet and didn't know anything, but she had ruined her big things again and again! He had already heard Lu Xuanji, who came first, say that he had seen Gu Yan, but even if he was mentally prepared, when he saw the missing moon bow in Gu Yan's hand and the Guiyuan arrow, he still couldn't avoid showing a trace of hatred.
And Xia Ruoqiu looked indifferent, anyway, she and Gu Yan had already torn their faces for the matter of silent words, and now there was no room for turning around, if the two of them could still make a nodding acquaintance before, then now they are strangers. After she and Zhancheng experienced the big explosion, Gu Yan disappeared for no reason, and after waiting for three days, they reluctantly entered the second layer of the underground palace. In comparison, their journey was far less difficult than Gu Yan's.
Although Zhancheng is very scheming, Xia Ruoqiu is also wary of him, and there is no direct conflict of interests between the two of them, so they can still maintain the appearance of cooperation for the time being. Zhancheng used Lu Xuanji as bait to pass through the stone forest, and then relied on a talisman given by his ancestors to successfully pass through the Five Fire Domain, and the role of that rune seal was to hypnotize the fire spirit spider that was suppressed in the Five Fire Domain, so they passed very quickly without a trace of hindrance.
When Lu Xuanji passed, the fire spirit spider was actually still in the process of being hypnotized, but Lu Xuanji explained its hypnosis with a secret method, his intention was to trap Gu Yan there forever, even if he couldn't take her life, he would not be able to take a step forward, so as not to cause any obstacles to the young master's plan.
But she didn't expect Gu Yan to come here so quickly, and she also saw through the layout of the Netherworld River and used the Guiyuan arrow to penetrate the bottom of the river, so that the entrance to the underground palace was completely exposed under her nose.
Zhancheng smiled bitterly, he arched his hand towards it, "Fairy Gu, Zhancheng underestimated you, so let's do it, the missing moon bow is still yours, and the past things will no longer be held accountable to each other, what are you going to do this time?" (To be continued)
