Chapter 16: The Lethe River
"There's a little bit more to go on. ”
Gu Qingyan's mind moved, and the Heavenly Mercy Sword that had restrained its brilliance appeared in his hand, and he walked towards the center of the forest with Chu Nanle, and occasionally one or two demon beasts that didn't know what to do came out and happened to train Chu Nanle.
It's just that Gu Qingyan thinks too highly of Chu Nanle, Chu Nanle, who has never really fought with demon beasts, faced the colorful pig that was more than ten meters higher than him, looked at the small sword in his hand that could pick out his teeth, and hugged Gu Qingyan's arm without saying a word.
"Master, why don't you find me a smaller demon beast, it's so big, it's lucky not to be trampled to death by it!"
Not only is it big, but the damage on his body is full of poisonous thorns, this guy looks too against the sky!
Gu Qingyan's face did not change, the Heavenly Mercy Sword in his hand faintly emitted a pale golden light, and before he could make a move, the Haocai pig had already smelled the smell of danger, and he didn't bother to study the little human in front of him, so he opened his legs and ran to the edge.
The higher the level of the demon beast, the stronger the instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm, if you can beat it, you can fight, if you can't beat it, you can run, there is no such thing as losing face in the demon beast world.
The running of the Haocai pig shocked the entire forest as if an earthquake had occurred, Chu Nanle tried his best to maintain his balance, and after standing firmly, he let go of Gu Qingyan's arm, firmly holding the small sword, and looking for the target while walking
But either the particularly cute hairy beast makes her love it, or it is strangely ugly, and the similar snakes, insects and ants make her avoid it.
Gu Qingyan frowned, and finally couldn't stand it:
"Keep up, go to the ruins first, everything is arranged by me, and don't move without permission. ”
"Okay!"
Chu Nanle waited for this sentence, and was so happy that he couldn't do it, so he inserted the heartless little sword back into the scabbard and quickly followed.
An apprentice with a master is a treasure, Chu Nanle cherishes the feeling of being protected, in the original real society, pressure will make everyone selfish.
There are gains and losses, she has been independent for a long time and entered another world, with Youli to take care of, and now she has a teacher, which is not too much of a loss.
Soon, Chu Nanle saw a super big pit, standing on the edge of the big pit and looking down, it seemed like a bomb exploded, and there were huge claw marks of unknown demon beasts on the surrounding rock walls, a gust of wind blew, and stones fell from time to time, and he always felt that it was colder here than other places.
Chu Nanle looked at Gu Qingyan's always serious face, and asked, "Master, this should be the Xuandong, how can you go to the so-called return to the ruins?
Gu Qingyan didn't reply, grabbed her shoulder as usual, and flew down directly, the Heavenly Mercy Sword in his hand slammed into the soil at the bottom of the pit, and the extremely terrifying force slammed into the surroundings from the bottom of the pit.
Chu Nanle was shocked in her heart, looking at the light blue light mask that protected her, she was a little excited, that was the admiration of normal people for the strong.
In the next second, the soles of his feet were weightless, and his eyes fell into pitch black.
"Master!"
The sudden change made her a little flustered, but she was also a person who had seen a big scene once, so she quickly calmed down and tried not to let herself fall backwards.
The time seemed to be very long, Chu Nanle felt that he had been in free fall for an hour and had not yet landed, and it was still pitch black in front of him, and he could only use the spiritual power in his body to maintain his body temperature.
After a long time, some starlight began to appear in front of her eyes, dense, as if looking at the stars on the ground, only this time it fell into the starry sky, and the unknown world below made her more and more afraid.
"Gu Qingyan?"
The words he said didn't seem to be able to pass far, and Chu Nanle didn't wait for Gu Qingyan to reply.
The endless fall made her a little sleepy, as soon as her eyes were closed, a pair of big hands wrapped around her waist, and the elegant and pleasant aroma skewered into the tip of her nose, as if Gu Qingyan was holding her, this kind of recognition made her heart stagnate suddenly.
The ruins are vast, and Gu Qingyan has never been here, but he didn't know that there was such a powerful material transfer formation, everything could not escape, and there was no order, but fortunately, he had set up a defensive formation for Chu Nanle in advance, so that he could find her in a relatively short time.
"Concentrate, it's easy to leave the ruins, you can't stay here for too long, it's a quarter of an hour now, and you must go back in three hours. ”
"Only a quarter of an hour?"
Chu Nanle didn't have time to take care of the etiquette at this time, but he was a little suspicious of life, and he felt that most of the day had passed, and it had only been fifteen minutes?
"Well, it's just that everything has come to a standstill that you feel like time flies slowly. After speaking, Gu Qingyan took Chu Nanle and flew towards the Guiru Platform, where was the door to enter the Guiru, and there would be a purgatory-like world underneath.
Chu Nanle also became nervous, holding the heartless sword tightly, but the moment he entered the Guiru Gate, he was still temporarily deaf by the sharp cry inside, and hurriedly used his spiritual power to isolate the noisy sound.
The world in front of me is incredible, it is not at all like in the TV series that it is a small underground, countless unjust souls are jumping around, and the damp ground is full of dark red blood, and a small pit of blood can be soaked out with a light step.
The most spectacular is the water of the Lethe River that flows from the ground to the air, circles around and then returns to the ground, and six whirlpools of different colors are skewered on the Lethe River Belt like a skewer, if you look closely, you can find that every drop of water in Lethe River is a soul.
"How many souls do you need to condense such a long river!"
Chu Nanle even forgot to be afraid, looking at everything in front of him in amazement, and then a churning river rushed towards the place where she and Gu Qingyan were standing, as if they were caught up in it.
"The Guiru has always existed since the birth of the Immortal Spirit Continent, and it has been there for millions of years, and those souls who can't pass through the six realms of reincarnation will stay here forever. ”
After speaking, Gu Qingyan took Chu Nanle to teleport to the edge, away from the extremely dangerous Lechuan River, looking for traces of Canglong and Liu Qingchi.
Guiru can't use divine sense, otherwise the possibility of the soul forcibly leaving the body is too great, and it is very dangerous, Chu Nanle and Gu Qingyan can only rely on their eyes to find it slowly.
The farther away from Lethe River, the more Chu Nanle felt a little strange, pulled Gu Qingyan's sleeve, pointed to the part where the Lechuan River connected to the ground, and said in confusion:
"Why is that part so firmly connected to the ground? Could there be something down there?"
Gu Qingyan naturally noticed it, but the most important thing at the moment was to find Liu Qingchi, glanced at the six reincarnation disks of the Lechuan River, and said in a low voice:
"Don't make a sound, the whole ruins are a living thing, and I can feel a heartbeat-like sound. ”
It stands to reason that Guiru has existed for so long, there should be a lot of ghost cultivators.
But in fact, there is no ghost cultivator who can fight with him, there must be some kind of rule in it, or there is some kind of powerful force to restrain and suppress it, preventing these ghosts from devouring the same kind of cultivation.
Chu Nanle didn't dare to speak anymore, while giving himself psychological hints, he followed behind Gu Qingyan inch by inch, ignoring those deliberately scary ghosts, he was very calm on the surface, and his heart had already collapsed.
Soon, Gu Qingyan found Liu Qingchi, who was buried in the soil and only had one head exposed, only to see that his face was blue, corpse spots had appeared, and he was no longer breathing.
Obviously, the soul has been away from the body for too long, and the body has been unable to hold on and began to decay, but I didn't expect Liu Qingchi to know that burying the body in the soil can minimize the loss, but the time is too long, and there is no way to recover.
Chu Nanle thought that Liu Qingchi only had his head left, and he was almost scared to death, afraid that he would scream, so he quickly covered his mouth.
It's horrible!
I'm going to have nightmares when I go back!
