Chapter 737: The Old Man of the River Styx

Just as Zhang Wuren and He Zhonghua were about to go to the Endless City in the Western Regions, I was standing on top of the Devil's Volcano in a daze.

In front of me, a purple flame danced happily.

This is Mr. Wanhuo's natal flame, Purple Flame.

Purple is the most important in flames, because the wavelength band of each visible light is different, and the different temperatures cause the visible light band emitted by the flame to be different.

Only when the temperature of the flame is at its extreme will this magnificent purple color appear.

Although I can't detect the temperature of this flame, this does not mean that the purple flame is ordinary, on the contrary, the energy of this flame is restrained, and only when it comes into contact, can it burst out of its true temperature.

If you only take the temperature as a calculation, the power of this purple flame even exceeds the Sun True Fire I use!

I took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Wanhuo, since that's the case, our deal is concluded!" You are responsible for helping me stop the seven secret demons, and I will do my best to help you hand over the flames to Emperor Shun. ”

Mr. Wanhuo's voice came faintly: "Ten minutes!" I can't completely turn the other cheek with the Ancestor of the Corpse, so I can only buy you ten minutes! ”

Without hesitation, I put away the purple flame and said, "Ten minutes is enough!" Leave! ”

With that, I packed up my things and turned around and left. After a few steps, he had reached the foot of the Devil's Volcano.

When I looked back again, I saw that the flames on the Devil's Volcano were in full bloom, and countless fires of different colors were tumbling and rolling, scattering in all directions like flowing water.

I only heard Chen Feng under the mountain frightened and angry, and shouted: "Mr. Wanhuo? Isn't it you! ”

Mr. Wanhuo turned a deaf ear, but all kinds of flames swept overwhelmed, and the originally light and fluttering flames were stuck to the ground like flowing water, and the waves of flames rolled up high, like thunder.

Chen Feng said angrily: "Mr. Wanhuo! Sure enough, it's you! I must report this matter to my ancestors! Thousands of years of accounts, this era must be calculated after all! ”

While the flames were running wildly, I had already rushed forward as fast as I could, and in an instant I was more than ten kilometers away. Looking back, I saw countless flames that almost burned half of the sky, and the snow on the ground melted into water due to the blazing heat, and then was frozen into a river by the bitter cold.

Above the glacier, several figures jumped up and down in the firelight, each with its own means, fighting with countless flames. Faintly, I also heard Mr. Wanhuo's hearty laughter: "It turns out that the Twelve Secret Demons have arrived?" I'm really sorry, I thought he wasn't a long-eyed thief. ”

"Don't worry, everyone, I'll take away the flames immediately!"

I shook my head secretly, I don't know what Mr. Wan Huo did in the era of the Dayu Dynasty, and I had to get on the thief ship of the ancestor of the corpse. Although he couldn't turn back when he got on the thief ship, he still had his heart towards Emperor Shun, and he had a feeling that he was in Cao Ying's heart and in Han.

Thousands of years of history, I don't want to pursue it, I just know that the greatest catastrophe in the history of living people is coming. Once the Great Dark Age really comes, it will really be the world of the dead.

Taking advantage of Mr. Wanhuo to stop the seven secret demons, I took a wild step, and ten minutes later, I had already run more than thirty kilometers, and suddenly I turned around and escaped into a river of ice.

This glacier originated from the underground river Styx, which was formed by the compression of geological movements, which changed the direction of the underground river.

Because the water of the River Styx has not been frozen for thousands of years, even if it is more than minus 30 degrees, it can still flow slowly, so the yin qi is extremely heavy, and it can hide my traces the most.

I don't know how many demons and monsters are hidden in the River Styx, these water ghosts and water corpses float in the river on weekdays, once a living person approaches, they will be attracted by yang energy, and suddenly rush out at a critical time, attack the prey, and obtain yang energy.

Although I am not afraid, if I am entangled by this group of water ghosts and water corpses, it is easy to attract the pursuit of the secret demons behind me.

Ten minutes is not a long time, but it is not a short time, and if the secret demon runs faster, it is very likely that he will chase after him.

Even I didn't dare to get into the river, so I had to step on the ice floes on the edge of the River Styx. As far as the eye could see, there were icebergs on both sides of the river, cliffs that were difficult for apes to climb, and occasionally a piece or two of ice rolled down from the cliffs, and then fell into the River Styx with a pop and disappeared again.

I was secretly frightened when I saw it, and I couldn't help muttering. This road is the path that Mr. Wanhuo arranged for me, and if you follow this road all the way, you will be able to enter the ice tower.

But I have to walk nearly fifty kilometers along the River Styx, and if this kind of road is flat, it is better to walk, and guarding a River Styx really makes people feel terrified.

Although the road is difficult, I still have to go hard. Fifty kilometers is not far away, but it is not close, and even if I used the technique of shrinking the ground into inches, it would take nearly three hours to get out in this kind of road condition.

Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly his feet softened, but a piece of cold ice broke abruptly, and he fell into the River Styx with a pop. I stepped on the air, my body staggered slightly, and when I tried to stabilize my body, I saw a sudden commotion in the Styx, and a black shadow rushed directly towards me.

The shadow was pitch black, with a human head, limbs, and wheels no different from a living person, but there were no facial features on the body, and it was completely a black charcoal head.

When it sensed the yang energy on me, it squeaked excitedly, "Living! There's a living person coming! ”

I reacted very quickly, and the sword of life and death suddenly swung out, only to see the sword flicker, and the black shadow was instantly cut in half by me, and then fell into the water with a pop.

I don't know what its body is made of, but when I was injured by it, it turned into a cloud of black gas, staining the clear water of the River Styx like ink.

The ink dispersed quickly, attracting countless small fish without eyes. These little fish are not afraid of the cold, they wander happily in the black water, and after a while they grow hands and feet, their tails continue to shorten, and their colors become darker and darker.

Countless small fish instantly turned into countless black shadows with hands and feet, but no facial features and tails. Except for the size that was countless times smaller than the black shadow I had cut off, the rest was exactly the same.

I looked at it strangely, and I couldn't help but pause slightly. But after seeing those little fish take shape, their personalities also became irritable. They devoured each other, biting each other, and with each small black shadow they devoured, their bodies swelled a little.

In just a few minutes, only one black shadow had been devoured, but this one was almost the same as the guy who pounced on me before.

But this guy must have been very scared of me, and yelled at me a few times, then shook his head and tail, and plunged into the River Styx.

I was secretly curious to see it, this thing is so weird, with the help of the body of the little fish in the River Styx, even if it is cut off by me, it can grow again.

That is, it ran away, otherwise I really want to kill him again, and see if I can kill it completely.

Shaking my head, I quickly put the thought away. The River Styx has always been hidden deep underground, even running through the entire eighteen layers of hell. What strange things are hidden inside, no one can say.

For the sake of today's plan, it's better to get out of here first and find a way to find Yu Buren.

With the Black Shadow Attack, I was a lot more careful when I walked further, and I tried not to get close to the River Styx if I could, even if it was climbing the icebergs on both sides, I didn't want to pass over the River Styx.

As it turned out, I made the right choice, and even if I walked carefully on the edge of the River Styx, I was still attacked by the evil spirits in the water.

Some of these evil spirits only know how to pounce on the living, there are also floating corpses disguised as people who have fallen into the water, and some capable water ghosts will even shout for help in order to trick the living into the water to save people.

As for the ghost boats floating in the river, the ghost bridges conjured up by using yin qi are even more numerous, and the means are all rotten.

Fortunately, most of the floating corpses of water ghosts can't get out of the River Styx, so as long as I am determined not to get close to the River Styx, this group of demons and demons can't do anything about me.

Occasionally, a few vicious fellows tried to rush out of the river and attack me, but I also cut them in half with a single sword.

These evil spirits are not as magical as the black shadow, once they are cut off by the sword of life and death, as soon as the three souls and seven spirits enter the water, they are devoured by countless water ghosts and floating corpses.

I was scared and trembling along the way. The journey that could have been completed in three hours took me more than five hours. The only thing that makes me happy is that the secret demons behind them still haven't chased after them, and they have lost their traces of the flames.

Seeing that the icebergs on both sides are getting shorter and shorter, the water flow of the River Styx is getting more and more gentle. Suddenly, there was an undercurrent in the River Styx, and countless water spirits floated up the river, rushing forward like sharks that smelled blood.

I was slightly stunned for a moment, and looked in the direction of the floating corpses of the water ghosts, but the clouds and mist in the River Styx were shrouded, and I could not see through the fog with unkind eyes, so I could only listen carefully with my ears sideways.

When I heard this, I immediately heard that something was wrong. There seemed to be people shouting loudly on the river in front of them, and there was a faint roar of thunder in the turbulent airflow.

I was slightly surprised in my heart, quickened my pace, and went straight against the river, and after ten minutes, I vaguely saw a small wooden boat floating on the River Styx, and a dozen ragged men on the boat were rising and falling, shouting loudly, and fighting with the floating corpses of water ghosts.

I rubbed my eyes, thinking I was wrong. How could there be so many living people in the River Styx in the Far North Ice Sheet?

As soon as his hands fell, he saw a burly strong man shirtless, completely unafraid of the cold on the ice field, he held a peachwood sword, and between swings, thunder flashed and rumbled.

Several water ghosts who couldn't escape were instantly cut in half by him, and even the three souls and seven spirits were scattered by the thunder and lightning.

I only heard the man shouting: "There are too many demons! Let's stay on the shore and avoid it! ”
