Chapter 103: The Unknown Underworld

At the entrance to the underworld, there are several rivers of the underworld.

The first river is the Akeron, the River of Grievance, the River of Distress, and those who want to enter the underworld must first pass through this river, and the dead who want to cross the river must pay the ferry fee, otherwise they will be mercilessly thrown into the river by Caron, the ferryman of the River Styx. It is said that the water quality of the Styx River Akron is much lighter than the water in the Yang world, and it is known as the "Feather Sinking River", and it is almost impossible for a human body to cross it unless it is through the ships of the underworld. As for the ignorant undead, in the waters of the River Styx, they will be eroded over time.

The second is the River of Sorrows, the River of Sorrows, the River of Lamentations, a tributary of Acheron in northern Greece, which was formed by the tears of criminals who served hard labor in hell, so that there was often a terrible-sounding wail on the water, hence the name.

The third Churi Pulugton, the River of Fire, and Hades used the River of Fire to isolate them in order to divide the parts of hell. Lert, the River of Oblivion, Lethe River (a small tributary of the four great rivers of the Styx), drink this river to forget the past.

The fourth "River of Hatred" Styx, the River of Wrath, the River of Oath, the daughter of the Titans Okaianos, is said to be used by the gods as a swear if they cross that river...... Legend has it that the water nymph Styx was taken by the Titan. Pallas (the son of Eurybia and Cleos) loved and had many children with him, including Niki, the goddess of victory. However, in the war between the Olympian gods and the Titans, she once participated in the battle with her children Victory and Force, helping Zeus defeat the older generation of the Titan gods and send them into the abyss Tartarus. For this they gave her the honour that whatever was done in her name could not be canceled. Styx originates from Ocaeanos, which flows underground, and pours to the surface, thus serving as an "intermediary" between the underground and the human world.

If this river is really the Styx in the mouth of this old man, then it is really possible to guess before not giving him a little money to cross the river!

Let's avoid disaster. Thinking of this, Yang Xi quietly opened the dimensional space, took out a gold bar, and handed it to the old man.

"A little care, not respect."

The so-called etiquette is not to blame, after seeing the gold bars. Although the old man didn't say anything, he also took it, and it was obvious that things like gold and silver were also circulated among the dead.

Huh, wait, dead man? By the way, the River Styx is the entrance to the underworld, and the underworld is the place where the soul returns, but the souls of this world will obviously enter the corpse soul realm, how can there be an underworld?

While thinking about the problem, Yang Xi's body sitting on the boat suddenly shook. His expression became trance-like. In his eyes, the heavens and the earth began to spin.

What's going on?!

Seeing that he was about to fall into the water, the old man came, and of course the boat stopped in the middle of the river.

The old man picked up the dagger and stepped forward, and with a touch behind Yang Xi, he immediately felt much more sober.

"Thank you."

The old man turned around, a smile squeezing out of his dry face, "It's okay." This thing is called a dragon" shook the creature in his hand, and Yang Xi looked at it fixedly. The thing was smooth and tender, and its body was as smooth as water, and when the old man turned it, the wind saw it in the center. Overgrown with tentacles, between the squirming of countless tentacles, it gives people a feeling of disgust.

"They are hiding in the water," the old man continued. "When I was ferrying, I clinged to the back of the passenger and gave him an anesthetic. When the passengers fall into the water, it naturally becomes their food. It's something that hurts people. The old man threw the thing in his hand, made a comment, and picked up the oars again.

"I don't feel it at all!" Yang Xi's expression was very surprised, "This thing is really powerful!" "I don't know if it's admiration or what.

"Ho-ho," the old man smiled, "and you won't feel it when you are eaten by it." ”

I don't know how long it took, but after watching the candle flame for a long time, I finally saw the other side again. Yang Xi's expression was strange, when he looked at the other side before, he felt very close, but he didn't expect that after such a long time, it seemed that the space had been extended a lot.

This place is full of incomprehensible weirdness, and even with Yang Xi's current strength, he can only act carefully.

He had the feeling that his presence in this place was definitely not a coincidence, there must be a reason.

Feet on the ground, there is a sense of steadiness. Sure enough, it is better to be down-to-earth.

"Uncle, I don't know what your name is."

"Me? I'm just a ferryman, and I've forgotten my name for so long. The old man seemed to be lost in thought, and after a long moment he raised his head and said, "I remember, my name is Karon." ”

Karon!! It's really him!

It was only at this time that Yang Xi sensed the breath of this old man.

This is an SSS-level powerhouse!

I'm, I'm!!

Thankfully, there was no mess.

The old man shook the oars, turned the boat over, and rowed forward. Seeing his figure disappear into the thick fog, Yang Xi's excited heart slowly calmed down.

Just when Yang Xi went ashore, he saw the giant door in front of him, pure Gothic style, at the handle of the door, there was a huge skull, the one on the left only had the left arm, and the one on the right was also only the right arm, both sides put their hands on their chests, and it happened that in their chests, it was a huge crack in the door.

Yang Xi could clearly feel that there was a strong smell of blood coming from the crack in the door, and a strong evil aura was sticking to it.

This gate is a bit like the gate of hell in "Death", although Yang Xi has never heard of this place, in his opinion, it should also be a forbidden place.

But it was the doorman who bothered him!

"This is the land of ghosts, and those who are not dead, those who are not traitors and evildoers before death, those who are not in vain, and those who complain about the world after death, are not allowed to enter." The huge stone statue said.

Is it? But there was no other road, and the ferryman, Karon, was nowhere to be found. There is no way out, so just forge a path!

Thinking of this, Yang Xi pulled out the sword in his hand and walked towards the gate step by step.

"Dang!"

The stone giant, who was more than ten meters tall, slashed the giant axe in his hand towards Yang Xi, who had entered the attack range.

Faced with a thunderous roar, as if an unstoppable blow, Yang Xi just looked pale and raised his sword to block it.

Under the tremendous force, the earth continued to crack, and his feet began to collapse.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yang Xi exerted a slight force with his feet, and with a bow on his body, he jumped into the sky like a cannonball!

The stone giant's eyes flashed red, and he swung the axe again, forming a half circle, and the axe was full of gravity again, roaring.

"Humph! Are you tall? Then I'll make you lame! ”

The sound was launched, leaving an afterimage in the air, and Yang Xi's body had already appeared at the stone giant's ankle, drawing the sword, unsheathing, swinging the sword, and returning the sheath in one go. As soon as the stone giant was about to raise his foot and want to step on Yang Xi, he fell down unsteadily.

Now the stone giant, half-crouched, like a saluting knight. But the giant didn't have the slightest elegance, and the plate axe swung again, this time not towards Yang Xi again, but his other ankle! Ruthless, this stone giant has no feelings, so he is naturally calmer than anyone else.

After its feet were level, it ran towards Yang Xi with dull steps. At the same time, a voice sounded in his body, like a muffled thunder, and even a little mechanized: "Identified as the deceased, the ability is unknown, and the strength is unknown." ”

The stone giant stepped forward, as if it sounded in his ears, Fengwei didn't need to be specially perceived at all, I believe that even if an ordinary person came, he could also avoid the giant's footsteps.

Yang Xi had no intention of entanglement here, according to what he thought, after temporarily knocking down the stone giant, he immediately ran towards the door, he should be able to pass through this door, but no matter how he got rid of it, the stone giant seemed to teleport, immediately returned to the door, and blocked him again.

Yang Xi was sure that this stone giant would not teleport, so there should be a teleportation device between this door and the stone giant.

It seems that if you don't destroy this big guy, you won't want to enter the door.

Well, don't blame me for being rude!

An astonishing battle intent erupted in his eyes, Yang Xi raised his momentum to the limit in an instant, obviously standing still in place, but the stone giant's body seemed to be separated by countless sharp weapons and turned into a pile of rubble.

In a dimly lit palace, a skeleton wearing a golden crown and a rich robe let out a permeating "giggle" laugh.

In the crystal ball hanging in front of him, Yang Xi's figure was impressively inside.

"Strange numbers, strange numbers, whether I can see the light of day again in the underworld depends on your performance, don't let me down!"

In this pile of rubble, Yang Xi was attracted by a strange stone. There seemed to be blood flowing in this gem, the bright red color was so bewitching, and the energy fluctuations it emitted made Yang Xi's heart palpitate. If I'm not mistaken, this gem should be the core of Golem.

As a trophy to put it into the dimensional space he had opened up, Yang Xi pushed the heavy door open a gap that was enough for him to pass through with both hands, and then walked in sideways.

The other side of the gate is like another world, and as far as the eye can see, there is a boundless wilderness. There was a black mist, and not far away, there were a few strange screams.

When you look up, the first thing you notice is the huge scarlet crescent moon. The moon, as if within reach, hung overhead, like half-closed bloody eyes, bringing a heavy sense of depression. In the dilapidated house in the distance, a few strange screams were heard from time to time, coexisting with this sense of oppression, revealing a strange atmosphere.

Yang Xi's heart tightened, in this inexplicable place, it was false to say that he was not nervous. The atmosphere around me is tingling, and I have long been vigilant about the unknown.

I noticed that the flow of spiritual pressure had become slow, and that the place that could often be reached in an instant was now as slow as a snail's crawl. In other words, not only the use of spiritual pressure, but even the recovery of spiritual pressure has been weakened more than tenfold!

But now that it's here, it's only necessary to adapt first, first of all, to figure out, where is this?! (To be continued......)
