The contents of this Yue Lingfei storage ring were divided equally at will, and only the invitation stone of the Netherworld Auction was additionally counted as condensation.

Zhao Ning didn't make excuses, said a few words, and went back to the small courtyard where he lived.

When I passed by the courtyard where Tinglan was, there was silence in the courtyard, as if no one existed.

Zhao Ning paused for a moment, but still walked in, quietly, the closer he got closer, the more he felt that there was no breath.

The divine consciousness swept across the small courtyard, and every corner was never spared, and he didn't find the slightest shadow of Tinglan.

It's really a powerful hidden technique. Zhao Ning sighed slightly in his heart.

She trusted that Tinglan would not break her faith and leave at will, so she stood where she was and said calmly, "Come out, the people from the Heavenly Palace are gone." ”

After about a few breaths, I saw Tinglan's figure come out of the shadows and salute Zhao Ning unhurriedly.

"Uncle Shen...... Thank you, Uncle Shen. Zhao Ning said, "Are you afraid that the people of the Heavenly Palace will send you to the Falling Immortal Domain?" ”

Listening to Lan not speak, it is a tacit acquiescence.

But Zhao Ning reminded her, "Then you are afraid of the Heavenly Palace, it is better to be afraid of me, I am the easiest to send you back." ”

Listening to Lan was calm, this sentence just made her head lower, and said, "Listen to Lan and save it." ”

"Three days later, we will leave for Jiuyou."

Zhao Ning said, "I know that this trip may not go well, and even the purpose may not be achieved. But I hope that before we find our way to Jiuzhou again, we will all be in the same boat, sharing weal and woe. Do you understand, Listen Lan? ”

Plain words, with a bland threat, but revealing the slightest hint of murderous intent.

Listening to Lan's response, she was not angry because of this hidden killing intent, she said calmly, "Uncle Shen is listening to Uncle Lan, saving Tinglan three times in the moment of life and death, Tinglan will never fail you...... Before finding your way back. Listen to Lan swear with a Taoist heart. ”

"Okay."

Zhao Ning only answered, turned around and disappeared.

Envy and power are the safest means, and friendship is not enough to condense with these people.

Three days later, the spirit boat flew high above the Qingyue Palace, and Zhiyue sent it to the sky.

"Zhiyue is waiting for you to come back, you must be safe." Her words were full of emotion, and they really came from the heart, "Zhao Ning, when you come back, I'll take you around the Red Mansion!" ”

He Jie almost squirted out a sip of tea.

Zhao Ning was used to Zhiyue's teasing words from time to time.

This trip to the Netherworld Cultivation Realm, there is no way to go to the void or shatter the void, it is really too far away, across the mundane of Kyushu, even the Yuanying realm can't bear this distance.

The spirit boat went to the south of Yangzhou, sailed out of the sea outside Yangzhou, passed through the sea of Tianyan, and directly entered the extreme north of Kyushu through the fog of the ends of the world, and then went to the Netherworld Cultivation Realm from the extreme north.

But after the spirit boat entered the Netherworld Cultivation Realm, He Jie and Xiang Hongxuan found that the Spirit Boat did not go in the direction of the Great Xuan Mountain, but went straight to the junction of the Netherworld Cultivation Realm and the Chengxuan Cultivation Realm.

"Boss Shen, where are we going?" He Jie asked curiously.

Zhao Ning replied, "The new entrance to the Nine Shadows that Venerable Haochu said is the exit of the black water in the secluded capital back then, and the power of the black water is irresistible even if we and other Yuan Babies can't resist it. But it is necessary to swim upstream by the black water, so it is necessary to ferry it with a soul boat. ”

He Jie was stunned.

Xiang Hongxuan said, "Back then, the secluded capital Heishui was not resolved, and there was indeed an old man who crossed the two sides of the river, but then the Heishui River dried up, and the old man disappeared. There used to be cultivators who searched for it many times, just for the strange soul boat and the divine axe on the boat, and I heard that the old man died because of this. ”

Is the Guardian dead?

At that time, the Hades guard was already old, and the demon had a long lifespan, and it was only a few decades, Zhao Ning thought that he would most likely die because of the end of his life, after all, the divine axe from the Nine Shadows was in his hand, and ordinary means could not help him at all, but if it was really because he was killed and overlooked...... Zhao Ning's eyebrows twisted.

She pinched her fingers and counted the situation of the Guardian at the moment, which was not good news but not a bad thing.

The Guardian is indeed dead, but his soul remains in the Netherworld, and it is the same place where Zhao Ning met him in the first place.

"Boss Shen, what's the point?"

Zhao Ning only said, "Go over there first." ”

He Jie and Xiang Hongxuan didn't know the situation, so they could only follow Zhao Ning's arrangement.

Until the Lingzhou soon approached a big river, this river was the Heishui River back then, and the Heishui River on the ground had dried up under the treatment of the Extreme Cold Palace and others, but the riverbed flowed down, so they simply used thousands of miles of rivers to carry Dafa, and filled the riverbed here with river water from other places, forming a new river.

At this time, in the middle of the river, there was a canoe with a strange shape, the head of the canoe had a nose and eyes, but a short axe was inserted, and there was a plan table on the boat, and two phantoms on both sides of the table were playing.

"Uncle Underguard."

Zhaoning's imperial envoy Lingzhou fell, stopped in the river, and became a flat boat, and the three of them stood on the flat boat.

The game between the two phantoms stopped instantly, one of the phantoms panicked and slipped into the hull of the ship, while the other phantom was overjoyed, stood up and hurriedly gave it up.

"Fairy Shen, don't come unharmed."

Zhao Ning glanced at him, it was really amazing, the Immortal Guard didn't even practice when he was alive, but now his soul state is close to the Yuanying realm.

"Uncle Underworld, I haven't seen him for many years, it's really amazing."

The Stygian Guard smiled, "This is all an opportunity given by the fairy. ”

"Back then, I was only dedicated to the ferry, but I didn't expect to get rid of my own shackles by mistake, have an epiphany, break through my state of mind, and have a cultivation in vain."

"An instant epiphany, lifting the sun in the day, is the old man's piety recognized by heaven, and has nothing to do with Zhao Ning."

The Immortal Guard smiled unabashedly, "No matter what, fairies are old benefactors. ”

He looked at the two behind her slightly, retracted his gaze and asked, "I don't know that the benefactor and the two Venerable Masters are here, but there is something to do." ”

Zhao Ning briefly introduced He Jie and Xiang Hongxuan to him, and said, "We want to go up the Heishui River, enter the depths of the secluded capital, and reach the source of the Heishui. You need to borrow a soul boat. ”

The Immortal Guard was stunned, but after thinking for a while, he said, "The benefactor really wants to go to the source of the black water?" After the leakage of the Heishui River was resolved, I once went upstream, and although the leakage in the depths of the secluded capital was suppressed by the Heaven and Earth Ruler, it seemed that there was another heaven and earth behind it, and this heaven and earth were treacherous and terrifying.

I just don't know, which source is the source where the benefactor is going? ”

Zhao Ning said calmly, "The source has come to an end. ”

The Immortal Guard understood, "The old man has been there once, if the benefactor doesn't mind, it is better to let the old man go over a few times." ”

"That's very good." Zhao Ning responded, "But we still have three companions waiting at the entrance of the Youdu City. ”

The Guardian looked at the narrow boat and smiled, "Please wait a moment, benefactor." ”

As he spoke, he floated to the axe, and did not pull out the axe, but just discussed with the head of the boat.

Before he could say anything, he saw that the soul boat was directly stretched a few feet, and the width was also widened several times, and from beginning to end, he only saw that the eyes of the head of the boat were tightly closed, as if there were still eyeballs dodging and rolling in it.

The guards were surprised at first, and then bowed their heads in amusement, and then respectfully invited Zhao Ning and the others to board the ship.

When Zhao Ning stepped on the soul boat, the face of the soul boat disappeared, disguising himself as an ordinary spirit boat.

"Boss Shen." He Jie whispered beside Zhao Ning, "Why does this boat look scared of you." ”

Before his words fell, the disappeared Zhoutou's face suddenly appeared, and two ugly wooden eyes stared directly at He Jie.

He Jie was startled, but after all, he raised his eyes to stare at it, and the wooden eyes retracted before he even lasted for three breaths.

The guard held back a smile and apologized to He Jie, "Master He, I'm really sorry, my old friend is short-tempered and sensitive, and his benefactor also knows it, and he is offended." ”

"It's fine." He Jie waved his hand aggressively.

Everyone sat on the boat, and the guard stood at the head of the boat and drew the axe, which glowed with spiritual light, and then turned into an oar, going up against the current.

After years of practice, it is rare to be so calm on the boat, the underworld guard ferry is extremely stable, and the soul wooden boat is retrograde in the early morning mist, looking at the color of the distant mountains and purple stars, which has a unique artistic conception.

After a long time, Zhao Ning asked about the murder and treasure grabbing mentioned by Xiang Hongxuan.

The Immortal Guard smiled generously, "I did meet it, and I did die because of that time." However, it was not the man who killed me, but the decay of old age. Originally, the longevity of the old man was at the limit, but the next ferryman who had been trained for many years couldn't stand the loneliness of the ferry, and would sneak back to Chengchifang City every once in a while, and the old man knew that he would not become a real ferryman. ”

"When the cultivator snatched the soul boat and the divine axe, the old man had already thought again, although the old man had arrived, the soul had an epiphany and could last for a hundred years, but it was limited to the decay of the body. Just when the cultivator snatched it, the old decay felt that this was an opportunity, so he simply gave up his body and put his soul in the divine axe. ”

His understatement summed up the hesitation, entanglement and hopelessness in his heart at that time, which only made Zhao Ning and the three of them quite admired and shocked.

But the guard smiled calmly and arched his hand towards Zhao Ning, "Benefactor, this is an old and selfish move, so I took possession of the Divine Axe by virtue of this, and I ask the benefactor to forgive me." ”

"The Divine Axe has no owner, and lending it to the Old Man is to play its greatest role." Zhao Ning shook his head, "This time, Uncle Shen is completely devoted to the Divine Axe, and becoming the spirit of the Divine Axe is your fate with the Divine Axe. ”

Xiang Hongxuan also said beside him, "Uncle Shenwei, abandoning the body and giving up reincarnation so freely, very people can do it, so dedicated to ferrying, I don't know if you want to enter the Tao by ferrying?" ”

The Immortal Guard was stunned for a moment, and the Immortal Guard shook his head with a smile, "The old man has never thought of not entering the Dao, this soul epiphany is just a coincidence, and the old man is just doing a simple and comfortable thing." ”

The three of them glanced at each other, and the state of mind of the Immortal Guard was something they didn't dare to reach.

In the time that followed, the soul boat went all the way up, and if he encountered any strange sights or events along the way, he would slowly tell them a story.

I have never practiced all the way, but I have a more precious experience of cultivating my mind than practice.

The riverbed of this original Blackwater River started from the most central area of the Netherworld Cultivation Realm, passed through several large gathering areas and several Xiuzhen Workshop Cities in the Netherworld Cultivation Realm, and then spread to the extreme eastern border of the Netherworld Cultivation Realm.

Gradually, along the road, you can see some uncultivated demons washing clothes or handling simple ingredients through this big river, even if the geomorphological environment of the Netherworld Cultivation Realm is far from the outside world, but the fireworks in this world are common.

Through the bustling city, and then go to the Great Xuan Mountain, you will enter the scope of the secluded capital.

The Soul Boat entered the mountain through a waterway covered by trees, and then led to a deeper place, and the light suddenly dimmed, and the insects and birds in the mountains disappeared, replaced by a moment of silence.

At this time, the Immortal Guard said, "The three of you can be careful, you will soon arrive in the Black Water area, and three hundred miles inward from the Black Water is the place where the Heaven and Earth Ruler suppresses it. ”

The three of them moved their positions, trying not to exceed the protection range of the soul boat.

Zhao Ning asked, "The Heishui River back then was not completely solved?" Why, there is black water here? ”

"Back then, the black water had indeed been solved, and all the black water was taken away by the magic weapon of the real people of the Extreme Cold Palace, and it was suppressed with the Heaven and Earth Ruler.

But decades later, the place of repression shook for days, as if something was striking again, and soon a gap opened, and strangely nothing slipped out.

Only this black water poured out here for three hundred miles, and it no longer spread. Later, the gap closed by itself, and fewer people came to explore, only when the old man was idle, he took the soul boat to look at this place. ”

"I see. What the old man said seems to have another world, but is it because of the gap? ”

"Exactly. Benefactor is intelligent. The old man has always felt that this gap has not disappeared, and there is still a place for suppression, but he can't feel it. The benefactor went to see it......"

Before he finished speaking, he was suddenly startled, and the sound of a fight came from afar.

The others on the boat were aware of it.

The entire mountain range trembled in the fight, as if it was about to collapse in minutes, this was at least a fight at the level of Yuan Ying.

After another stick of incense, the soul boat entered an extremely open area, and the mountain rock completely lost its trace, and the edge was shrouded in a misty ghostly aura.

And at this moment, they saw the fight clearly.

It was a huge two-headed hellhound, with a body length of more than ten zhang, and a height of three or four zhang, surrounded by black flames full of corrosive power, at least the fourth order, and it was really abnormal for this kind of demon beast to appear before entering the hidden capital.

And at this moment, a light is fighting with it, not far away, another man and a woman are watching with their arms crossed, they are all cold-tempered, and at a glance, it seems that they can freeze their sight.

The woman knew that it was Zhan Xuexuan.
