Chapter 366: Dead Well
"This is a dead well, and most of the remains in it are left behind by previous wars or thieves who died at sea. I am Du Ren, and I was a general when I was alive. This place is guarded by me, and the evil spirits are restrained, and the corpses are controlled, so that they do not harm the world. The corpse stood on the boat, scanning the surroundings.
"Why are there so many Yin corpses gathered here?" Wu Jian looked at the thousands of corpses around him, and was in a trance for a while.
Du Ren lightly knocked on the handle of the knife, and the bottom of the boat suddenly became transparent. Through his feet, Wu Jian could see that there was a thick dead air at the bottom of the well, like a tide and smoke, which had become a substance.
"The reason why this place has become like this is that there are both natural and man-made disasters. This place is originally a place to raise corpses, and it gathers spirits, plus it is just in the middle of Tianyuan Continent and Kun Tianzhou, and several wars have been launched here, so there are so many Yin corpses.
In addition, this place is also sealed with countless bodyless souls, nourished by the death qi, not destroyed by the sun and wind, and can be preserved.
The living here cannot stay, and if they enter it rashly, they will soon die and become undead. Over the years, you're the first person to come here as a living person. Du Ren held a long knife in his hand, and his eyes were gloomy.
After feeling his own body, Wu Gen did not feel any discomfort. On the contrary, when the dead air in the well came to his side, he hurriedly left, and surrounded him, like a soldier seeing a general.
"Senior Du, why did you invite me here?" Wu Yan put his mind at ease and asked.
"Don't you think you're better suited here?" Du Ren's eyes were dark with blue fire, as if he could see through Wu Gan's body, "From the moment you stepped into the sea of blood, the undead here have been restless. ”
The foot stomped lightly, and the boat continued to fall downward, "The purity of the dead qi in your body can be said to be incomparable to any undead spirit in the dead well, and it naturally suppresses the spirits. The reason why I went out to sea to find you here is because you are better suited than I am to control these undead. ”
Wu Yan heard some flavor from the other party's words: "But there is something abnormal here. ”
"Exactly." Du Ren sighed, "There are many people, and so are the ghosts." Over the years, with the increasing number of undead, the dead gas in the dead well has been difficult to meet the needs, so there are many battles in the well. If this continues, there will be constant strife here, and if it is destroyed, if there are undead spirits wandering in the world, it will inevitably be another disaster. ”
Wu Gen looked around the dead well on the boat with his hands behind his back, and smiled slightly, "Senior wants the kid to help solve this hidden worry?" ”
"Yes, I have lived here for a long time, and I have lost my will, so I want to borrow some external strength. finally waited for a person who was not afraid of death, and naturally he was unwilling to let go. Just outside the well, you have entered the sea of knowledge and realized the requiem. Requiem is very beneficial to the spirits, and these spirits will be invisibly close to you.
In addition, if the Requiem is cultivated to the depths, it can even transform the souls of the dead, so that these resentful spirits will not remain in the world for a long time.
You are still young, and I can assert that in time, your cultivation in the soul path will be far superior to mine, so it is naturally more suitable to stay here. Du Ren looked directly at Wu Gan, and a rotten aura came to his face.
Wu Yan couldn't help laughing, "The seniors laughed, as you said, I am still young, how can I be willing to leave the world of flowers." If I had lived here for a long time, I might have become the evil spirit who was most resentful and wanted to take the lead in rebellion.
But since the seniors have come over, I naturally can't ignore it. In fact, it is not difficult to solve the hidden worries here, isn't it that the wolf has more meat and less meat, and wants to have fewer undead.
If possible, you can let some out and fight people. In this way, it will naturally consume a part of it, reducing the consumption of dead air. In addition, when the kid's requiem is successful, he will think of helping his predecessors to transform a part, so that the dead qi should be able to support the remaining undead. ”
The blue flames in Du Ren's eyes jumped, and he looked at Wu Yan with knives in his arms, "These undead have survived with great difficulty, but you want them to fight with others and end up scattered, but they are a little poisonous." ”
Wu Gen sneered again and again, "The predecessors are ridiculous, since ancient times, how many wars have the world experienced. Not to mention the human race and the alien race, even within the human race, there are also wars, and I don't know how many people have died. In the final analysis, it is not that the world's products are no longer sufficient for the needs of all the people, and they have no choice but to choose this kind of cruel means.
The same is true in this well of death, which has accumulated over countless years, and it is already overwhelming, and I can predict that no matter how strong the predecessors are, sooner or later they will be swallowed up by these undead who are waiting to be fed after a long time. When the well collapsed, they were all victimized by the false benevolence and false righteousness of the predecessors, and I think the seniors might as well change their names and call them Du Evil. ”
Hearing Wu Gan's mean words, Du Ren was not angry, pondered for a moment before saying: "This is not a bad way, but there must be a leader, and you can't let it out and harm the world at will." ”
Wu Gen took a step forward and pointed to himself with his thumb, "If the seniors can rest assured, leave this matter to me, and the kid is willing to be the person in charge." I'm the only one who was born to suppress these undead.
Moreover, if any of these souls are successful, I can also give them a copy of their creation, and they will live forever in heaven and earth. ”
Hearing Wu Gan's promise, Du Ren did not reply, and was silent for a moment and said noncommittally: "You come with me and see what you will rule in the future." If you can't control them, you may turn against yourself. ”
The boat then fell, and the surroundings gradually narrowed. The further down they went, the more powerful the aura of these yin corpses became, and their dark eye sockets stared at Wu Gan, and from time to time there were ghostly fires flickering.
Wow, a dark shadow reached the skies above the boat. It was a two-foot tall skeleton with sharp bone spurs on its body, which looked even more hideous in the green light.
The skeleton silently opened its mouth wide, as if mocking Wu Gan's weakness. Du Ren glanced up, his fingers flicked the handle of the knife, the long knife revealed a little, and a sharp knife qi burst out, pointing directly at the skeleton.
Wu Gan's eyes narrowed slightly, and Du Ren only struck a blow, but four knife marks appeared on the skeleton's body, and both arms and legs were broken, leaving only the body to fall into the distance.
In the snap of his fingers, Du Ren was able to use such a precise and comfortable sword control method. There is no big opening and closing, but making a fuss between square inches. It can be said that this technique has been shortcut, which has opened the eyes of Wu Gan, who boasts of good knife skills.
The skeleton was not seriously hurt, and hurriedly ran to its limbs, hurriedly latched onto its body, and fled towards the wall of the well in the distance.
"These people were either soldiers or robbers in life, and they are still unruly after death. If you don't suppress it with force, don't say that you are the leader, and it is a great luck not to eat you alive. Du Ren's voice rang out.
Wu Yan looked at the dense corpses around him and thought it was true.
"I have four subordinates, named Qiu Bo, Zhang Yun, Wang Kang, and Zhao Qi, who will suppress the spirits for me on weekdays and take care of the dead well, if they want, they can go out of the well with you as a whole team to fight." Du Ren continued.
"Oh, where are the four?" Wu Yan suddenly became interested.
"Here we are." The boat stopped.
Wu Yan raised his eyes and looked at it, compared to the place he had just passed, the conditions here seemed to be even worse. On the wall of the well, the red ice flames were blazing, and some scattered bones were burning in the fire like firewood. On the wall of the shaft, a tall skeleton was being hung high, apparently receiving some punishment.
"Come out and meet the guests." Du Ren shouted in a low voice.
After waiting for a while, a tall figure walked out from behind the flames in front of Wu Qian, with two horns on his head and a tiger body, with a long iron chain in his hand and a huge iron hammer tied to the end.
"This is the enemy."
Immediately after Wu Gan, another corpse appeared, three feet long, with a long tailbone dragging behind him, and when he passed the skeleton hanging on the wall, the tailbone swept away, and the skeleton shattered in response.
"His name is Zhang Yun."
Two more corpses came out one after the other, one with nine human heads around its neck and a steel fork in its hand. The other is the appearance of a living person, the body is not lost, and the face of the birth is handsome, but it is a scholar.
"This is Wang Kang and Zhao Qi."
"General, summon me to wait out, just for this weak chicken. The meat tastes quite good, but it's just too thin to stuff my teeth. A rough and rough voice came, and Qiu Bo spat flames from his mouth and nose, staring at Wu Yan viciously.
Du Ren didn't say anything, but took a step back, allowing Wu Gen to face Qiu Bo directly.
Wu Jian knew in his heart that this was Du Ren's intention to test his own quality, and whether he could move these four people depended on his own ability.
To tell the truth, along the way, Wu Gen has been moved by this huge force, if he can take it back for his own use, even if it is one-tenth, it is also a terrifying force.
Wu Yan knew that Du Ren could bring himself here, and what he liked was the inexplicable dead qi in his body, as well as the requiem that the spirits flocked to. Without these two things, I really thought that this undead who had existed in the world for an unknown number of years would look at him squarely.
Similarly, if the four fierce generals under him did not have the means to suppress them, let alone use them for their own use, it would be a question of whether they could get out of here today. As soon as he thought of this, Wu Yan took a deep breath, and hesitated in his heart whether to release the dead qi that had been suppressed so hard.
"Boy, what about you, or the enemy will give you a death today, stay here, say that you are in a good mood, and will leave you a good seat." Qiu Bo took a heavy step forward, and the water in the well suddenly stirred, and even the lantern with the bow of the boat swayed.
"Are you talking about me, there are no rules, your general is still polite, where is your turn to be a subordinate." Wu Yan looked at Qiu Bo coldly, and the black lines on his face were densely woven.
The eyes are frighteningly cold, a pair of emotionless black eyes, extremely black and pure, like the deepest cave, it seems to be able to swallow everything in the world, and even the light cannot escape from it.
Wu Yan slowly raised his head, and the black qi on Zhou's body was tumbling, like a black flame beating.
The well was getting colder, and the red flames around it had long since retracted into the wall. Even though the well was full of dead Yin corpses and undead, at this time, they also felt the cold and felt the smell of silence.
This coldness goes deep into the depths of the soul. This is the real death.
Wu Geng's head was held high, looking at Qiu Bo expressionlessly, and the dead qi on his body was still gushing out, spreading towards the well.
Du Ren stood stiffly at the bow of the boat, the light of the lantern fading. He knew that Wu Gen was hiding a miracle, but he didn't expect that after this power was released, it would be so terrifying.
The dead qi in the cave, compared to the pure dead qi on Wu Gan's body, is like a mortal who sees a god and witnesses another level of life, and he can't resist at all.
Moreover, as soon as these pure death qi came out, the death intent contained in the undead in the cave continued to flow like a sheep seeing a wolf, scattering in all directions, so that Du Ren felt that his cultivation was weakening sharply.
If this continues, I am afraid that all the undead here will disappear and truly become a place of dead silence.
"That's enough." Du Ren shouted softly.
Wu Gen turned his head indifferently and glanced at Du Ren, Du Ren's heart trembled, so he had to turn his head and no longer look at Wu Gen's eyes.
Wu Yan looked at Uncle Qiu, "Are you willing to obey me." ”
Qiu Bo's face was distorted, and the flames in his mouth and nose were uncertain, staring at Wu Gan.
"It's a bit of guts." The black qi behind Wu Gen rolled upwards and turned into a giant hand, covering the top of Qiu Bo's head. Qiu Bo raised his head and screamed, intending to resist, but his body was unable to move as if it was frozen. The giant hand slowly fell, and Qiu Bo looked up in horror, his body shaking like chaff.
At the moment when the giant hand was about to face his horns, the man shouted, "I am willing to obey you." With a plop, he knelt down on one knee.
"What about you?" Wu Gen looked around, and the other three also nodded silently.
"Very well, when I return here, I will lead you to the earth, let the blood stain the earth, and reap the death you desire."
