Chapter 338: The Ferryman of Lethe

"You stay here, don't run around." Xiao Ye instructed the Book of Stars, and then left a spatial coordinate on and around it.

In doing so, he would be able to return directly to the waters of Lethe and find the Book of Stars. Lethe River was like a dead sea, very silent, and the water of the Yellow Spring was cold and biting, giving Xiao Ye a feeling of facing that strange cold snap in the world above.

At the same time, Xiao Ye was also thinking, if the strange cold snap above was because of Lethe, then how did it form?

And how did you get to it? This is a strange phenomenon, as the distance taken to get here from the world above is much greater than the maximum distance of a world.

Ordinary physical changes can no longer be used to explain this phenomenon. Xiao Ye kept going down, and the water pressure he faced was getting stronger and stronger, but he didn't find anything in the turbid water, let alone the living creatures, not even the tiny simple creatures.

"Is there really a creature that can survive in this water?" Such a thought rose in Xiao Ye's mind.

[Item Name: Naraku Yellow Spring Water] [Type: Water] [Quality: Immortal] [Special Effect: One of the most magical waters in the Ten Thousand Domains, capable of corroding all things, and inaccessible to living beings, from the Lethe River, the home of the dead.

If it weren't for the protection of the heart of time and the heart of space, Xiao Ye would not have been able to come and go freely in the water of Lethe.

But the others don't want him to have these two things, so there is a high probability that there are no living beings in Lethe.

But for some reason, the longer she spent in Lethe, the more uncomfortable he felt in his heart, as if he was being targeted by something.

"In Lethe, only the soul can truly exist forever." The system suddenly spoke.

Xiao Ye shook his body, as if he thought of something, he carefully opened his divine sense, and was suddenly startled.

Under his divine sense, he saw that around him, there were countless dense strange fish, although this strange fish had the body of some fish, but the whole body was covered with dense eyeballs, these eyeballs were shaking everywhere, and Xiao Ye's scalp was numb for a while.

"What is this?" Xiao Ye felt the soul body tremble, it seemed that this fish had some strong restraint effect on the soul body, but unfortunately the system still couldn't check their information.

"They're guarding over this

Lethe is a multi-eyed beast capable of devouring souls that fall into the waters of Lethe. Just when Xiao Ye was puzzled, a voice with ecstasy suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Who?" Xiao Ye looked around fiercely, but found nothing.

"I'm here." The voice rang out again. Xiao Ye followed the sound and looked over and saw a different fish in a group of fish, the most important thing was that the fish was actually nodding at him.

"Who are you?" Xiao Ye stretched out his hand and fished it out of the fish.

"I thought I would never see a living person in my life, but I didn't expect to see it, and I was able to come and go freely in the Lethe River." The fish spat out and sighed with a mouthful of sighs.

Xiao Ye felt a little strange, so he asked, "Are you a human being?" ”

"That's right, when I strayed into Lethe, my body was instantly corroded by the water of Lethe, and my soul was almost swallowed by this group of fish, but fortunately I had some means to integrate my soul into this fish, so I survived." The fish sighed lightly and sighed lightly: "But this kind of day is too painful, I can't bear it anymore, so I finally waited for someone to come." Xiao Ye released his divine sense to look at the other party, and shook his head after half a sound: "You are no longer saved." "His soul has been fused with the fish for too long, except that the mind still belongs to humans, and the soul body has been assimilated too thoroughly by the fish, and this situation is already hopeless.

"I know I'm hopeless, I just want to get rid of it quickly, this kind of day is too painful, if I didn't be able to free myself, I would have done it a long time ago." The fish was a little painful.

"Can't get rid of it?" Xiao Ye felt that his statement was a little strange.

"That's right, this fish doesn't have any natural enemies in this Lethe, they have a peculiar body structure, and they don't need to eat to sustain themselves, they only need to absorb a small amount of energy from Lethe to survive, the most outrageous thing is that they seem to be immortal, since I merged with this fish, for so many years, no fish has died naturally."

"So weird?" Xiao Ye's brows furrowed: "So how do they thrive?" ”

"I don't know." The fish shook its head: "Their number seems to be constant, and after so many years, there has not been one more, nor one less, at least I have not seen any new fish born." ”

"By the way, the physical body is the best barrier for the soul body, don't let the soul body get out of the physical body, otherwise you will be targeted by them, believe me, don't look at them with no offensive power, but if you let them go crazy, what you have on your body may not be able to ensure your safety." The fish's words made Xiao Ye's heart skip a beat, because of these words, the system had also mentioned it.

"Do it, let me go." The fish couldn't wait to speak. Xiao Ye pondered for a moment, and smashed his fist towards the fish, this punch brought him the power to break the law, because he had a feeling that just by relying on ordinary attacks, he might not be able to kill this fish.

The restrained force violently acted on the fish's body, blasting it to pieces like a devastating shard. A phantom emerged from the void.

It was a soul body that looked like a fish but not a fish, like a human and not a human being. He had been so badly assimilated by the fish that he was on the verge of losing his human character.

As soon as the soul body appeared, he looked at his body, and then laughed violently: "Finally free, I will never come back to this ghost place." Xiao Ye frowned slightly: "Can you still survive?" The soul body looked at Xiao Ye in surprise: "The soul body is immortal, and the physical body can naturally recover through some means, don't you know this common sense?" Xiao Ye was silent, what kind of common sense is this?

He had never listened to the words, his body was gone, and his soul body could recover from this abnormality.

"Your soul body has become like this, can you still recover?" Xiao Ye pointed at his soul body in surprise.

"It's just a little trouble, if it weren't for this carelessness, this place wouldn't have been able to trap me at all." Then, the soul body seemed to sense something, and said, "I'm leaving, if I have the opportunity to meet, I will repay the grace of saving my life today." ”

"By the way, boy, this Lethe River seems to be calm, but there are not a few dangers hidden in it, this multi-milking fish is just one of them, if you encounter the following three situations here, I suggest you run away quickly, it is best to escape far away."

"It's important to keep these three things in mind."

"First, if you see something unusual about the eyefish, hurry away, because what comes is something that the eyefish are afraid of, and if you encounter it, you will definitely die." The soul body didn't say what it was, but Xiao Ye felt deep fear from the tone of his voice.

"The second is an ethereal singing.

Speaking of this, the soul body seemed to think of something, and the body actually trembled slightly.

"Above Lethe, there is an existence, called Lethe Ferryman, a small boat, wandering on Lethe River all the year round, her appearance, accompanied by an ethereal singing, if you hear this voice, don't hesitate, hurry up and leave this place." Xiao Ye frowned slightly.

Ferryman?

"What about the other situation?" Xiao Ye silently remembered what he said.

"There is another situation...... the soul body stopped talking, and finally sighed: "I hope you will not encounter the last situation, otherwise, if you are you, I am afraid that I will never see you again in this life." ”

"What exactly are you talking about?" Xiao Ye was puzzled.

"I don't know." The soul body's face showed a look of fear: "Anyway, if you feel something wrong, run away." After the soul body finished speaking, he suddenly disappeared, very strangely disappeared, and even Xiao Ye didn't see clearly how he disappeared.

Xiao Ye was silent in place for a while, then used the Heart of Space and instantly came to the side of the Book of Stars.

…… Unknown Void. A soul body emerged from the void.

"Ahem, cough, it's a bit big this time, and I still can't wave, I don't know how long it will take to recover this time." He then let out a faint sigh, looked down, and quickly left the place.

A corpse then silently submerged in the water. ……

"What, what's the catch?" The Book of Stars felt Xiao Ye's appearance, and he was almost half frightened to death.

"No, something strange happened." Xiao Ye shook his head and told him what he had encountered in Lethe.

"Well, when you say that, I seem to remember, and not long after you left, I seemed to hear an ethereal singing, and I misheard it at the time." After listening to the Book of Stars, he spoke.

"Singing?" Xiao Ye was stunned: "It can't be so coincidental, right?" The Book of Stars seemed to swallow: "What if it's really that coincidental?" ”

"Let's go." The corners of Xiao Ye's mouth twitched, grabbed the Book of Stars, and just wanted to fly upward.

"Woooooooooo......oo Lalala......" Suddenly, an ethereal singing voice sounded in Xiao Ye's ears, and at the same time, a heavy fog suddenly floated above the Lethe River.

Xiao Ye was in a trance for an instant, and the hand holding the Book of Stars also drooped, and his body involuntarily fell towards the water.

The Book of Stars didn't seem to be affected by this song, and flew towards Xiao Ye, dragging Xiao Ye from the bottom up, stopping Xiao Ye's body in mid-air.
