Chapter 503: Crossing the River Styx

The Ancient Ship of the Dark Sail flew through the void for two hours before its speed gradually slowed down. [Ran^Text^Library] According to Xiao Ning's estimate, they have at least traveled more than 100,000 miles, and you can imagine how vast the secret realm here is.

The place where the ancient ship descended was a black pier, which was made of a kind of inky black rock, and a large river at the edge of the pier flowed mightily into the distance.

"Styx!"

The crowd who saw this scene immediately exclaimed again, this big river is very wide, and it is impossible to see the end of both sides when looking down from the sky.

The whole body of the river has a dim yellow color, and there is a faint dark red water flowing in the depths of the river, exuding an astonishing dead air.

"Could this be the ancient River Styx built according to the Yellow Springs?

The Yellow Spring is a symbol of the underworld, and in the legends of the mortal world, once the human soul enters the Yellow Spring, it can never return to the Yang World, and must go through the Ten Halls of Yama and the Six Paths of Reincarnation to be reincarnated. Therefore, in ancient legends, the underworld is also called the Yellow Spring Realm.

Although the river Styx in front of him is not as vast as the legendary Yellow Spring that runs through the two worlds of life and death, and carries hundreds of millions of souls, the death qi it emits is still amazing, especially the dark red liquid in the depths of the river brings everyone a sense of devastation.

Although no one has really seen it, the moment everyone sees the liquid, a thought naturally comes to their minds: the dark red liquid must not be touched, and if you touch it, you will die.

"Hey, it's the same people from before, they're there. ”

When the ancient ship of the Dark Sail completely stopped at a port of anchorage, everyone was slightly stunned. There were hundreds of people standing on the dock, and it was the silver-haired man and others who were the first to board the ancient ship of the Dark Sail.

When everyone got off the ancient ship, everyone was stunned for a moment, and even Xiao Ning's gaze suddenly froze, with a hint of surprise and shock.

When everyone sat on the ancient ship of the Dark Sail and looked down from the sky, the Styx River they saw was a dim yellow river, which was really as powerful as the legendary Yellow Spring.

But at this time, when everyone got off the ancient boat and came to the bank of the river, they found that the water in the river Styx had completely turned black.

The black river is rushing and roaring, the waves are surging, and endless white bones can be faintly seen floating on the river, and the scene is extremely terrifying.

And when I looked closer, I found that this Styx River is not as wide and endless as I imagined, and at a cursory glance, this Styx River is about hundreds of zhang wide, and you can clearly see the opposite bank.

How could this be? The color and size of the river seen from the sky are actually different from the Styx seen up close, this Styx is really weird.

Xiao Ning's brows furrowed slightly, this river Styx was too evil, the wind was howling on it, the waves were surging, and the river surface that was hundreds of feet wide exuded a terrifying aura.

The distance of hundreds of zhang may sound like a long distance, but it is nothing to them as swordsmen. After all, if a swordsman in the Golden Realm was to use his body technique with all his might, he would be able to cross the void in a few breaths.

However, there are so many people here, all waiting on the shore, and no one has flown over, and the problem is more serious. It is clear that there is some kind of prohibition on the River Styx, which forbids the swordsman to fly across it, otherwise these people would not have been able to wait here stupidly.

Xiao Ning's eyes narrowed slightly, he clearly remembered that the first batch of people who boarded the ancient ship was not more, not less, exactly one hundred people, but now counting the swordsmen waiting on the shore, there were actually five people less.

It is clear that all five of them died because of their failure to cross the River Styx.

As soon as he thought of this, Xiao Ning's heart became slightly solemn, the people who could come here were all elite powerhouses in the southern cultivation world, and the first batch of people who came were figures from various top forces, whether it was their temperament or cultivation, they were all the best choices.

Such an elite powerhouse, anywhere outside, it is a hero, but such a character can't even pass the first level of the secret realm, the Styx, it is obvious that the danger of this secret realm is far greater than the original estimate.

How can I cross the river?

Xiao Ning frowned slightly, and when his gaze swept slightly in one direction, he was suddenly slightly stunned, only to see the silver-haired man he had seen before sitting silently in a corner of the dock.

His eyes were slightly closed, and there was no sadness or joy on his face, and he couldn't see any emotion.

The wind was howling, blowing his long silver hair to float in the wind, just looking at his back 0 scene, anyone would think that it was a peerless beauty with outstanding figure.

His face was very quiet, as if he were in another world, indifferent to everything in front of him, without the slightest anxiety about not being able to cross the River Styx.

The others didn't have such a good mental cultivation, most of them stood by the river, one by one frowning, and after the ancient ship sent them here, there was no movement, so they couldn't expect to cross by the ancient boat.

So how do you cross the River Styx? Is it that so many people are going to be stopped by a small river Styx, and the journey to explore the secret realm stops?

The Maitreya Buddha in the crowd had a smile on his white and chubby face, and he looked harmless to humans and animals. He is very good at hiding himself, quietly in the crowd, and does not show his appearance.

If it weren't for Xiao Ning's powerful perception and having carefully sensed his cultivation before, no one would have imagined that this fat man would actually be a strong person who suppressed his cultivation to come in, maybe it was the head of a big force.

As everyone waited on the banks of the River Styx, the atmosphere of urgency and irritability in the air became stronger and stronger, and the continuous River Styx completely blocked everyone's way forward, and there was no way to resolve it.

"That's enough, I've waited enough!"

Just when almost everyone was worried, an impatient voice suddenly sounded.

When everyone raised their eyes, they saw a thin man in black in the crowd suddenly stood up, and said with a cold and disdainful expression: "When will it be the end of waiting like this? ”

This thin man in black is obviously a relatively impatient character, he has long hair, although his face is thin and even a little old, but his eyes are like two extremely sharp sword qi, sharp edges.

"You don't dare to cross, I'll cross, I want to see a fake yellow spring, how powerful it is, let me get out of the way. ”

With a heavy wave of his palm, the thin man strode towards the banks of the River Styx.

As he walked forward, a strong dark blue light began to emerge from him, emitting a strong aura.

"Red Hitomi, I advise you not to be so impulsive. ”

Behind the thin man, a gray-clothed man who seemed to be from the same force as him shook his head slightly, and said: "There are ancient prohibitions in this secret realm, and you can't float and fly, and you have also seen the power of this water of the Styx, even Zhang Ming, who has the bronze demon wolf sword species, can't resist the erosion of this river and turn into a white bone, if you don't want to die, it's better to be careful." ”

"Heh, you don't have to persuade me, how can that mere bronze demon wolf compare to my Biyin Centipede, it took me decades to cultivate a Biyin Protective Body, if I can't even cross a river, wouldn't it be a joke. ”

The thin man laughed when he heard this, and when he came to the Styx River, he waved his palm violently, and a white light exploded in the air, turning into a huge turquoise centipede floating on the Styx.

This turquoise centipede should be the mimicry of his emerald centipede sword species, the swordsman is forbidden and suppressed, and he can't rely on the true yuan to float high in the air, but in fact, he just can't float to a certain height, not completely unable to float.

The float is not high, so naturally there is no way to cross this river Styx from the shore, and you basically have to fall down halfway.

However, the mimicry of the sword species is different, they are much more flexible, even if they float at low altitudes, they will not fall, but if they are too low across the river, they are easily eroded by the river.

"I want to see what this Styx can do to me, I'll go!"

With a loud shout, the thin man jumped on top of the Biyin centipede, and then saw him wave his big sleeves, and Biyin made a loud noise, carrying him forward.

The yin wind is howling, the turbid waves are monstrous, and above the rushing and roaring black river, the sleeves of the thin man are flying, stepping on the blue yin centipede like a demon envoy who has walked out of the underworld, but it is quite generous.

After a full distance of fifty zhang, the blue yin centipede was very stable, but when it reached the fifty-first zhang, the mutation protruded.

I saw that on the cold black river, a faint white shadow flashed, and the blue yin centipede actually shrank rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye in an instant, and the true element based on the thin man was rapidly dissolving.

How so!

The thin man's complexion changed greatly, this sword type mimic had been cultivated by him to the point of being like an arm, but at this time, the original sword type mimicry with the same mind had completely lost control, and the true yuan couldn't cross it at all, and naturally it could no longer maintain its size, and it shrank to a size that was almost impossible to stand in just a few breaths.

"Danger, come back quickly!"

"There are evil spirits in the River Styx, and your sword species is out of control!"

His companion saw something was wrong on the shore and immediately warned loudly.

The thin man's face changed a few times, he gritted his teeth violently, and let out an angry roar, "Give it to me!"

Rumble!

With a violent explosion, a strong dark blue light suddenly burst out from his body, and it frantically poured into the blue yin centipede under his feet.

With the blessing of this true element, the Biyin centipede, which was originally getting smaller, finally stabilized and seemed to be controlled by him again.

Seeing this scene, the thin man's face was happy, and with a sharp tiptoe, he drove the Biyin centipede back quickly.
