Chapter 412: Hell Tower
By the time the snow has fully recovered, a short time has passed.
Taking that kind of forbidden pill made Fukiyuki's body seriously overdrawn, and without that equally terrifying self-healing talent, he would have no possibility of living together again.
Fortunately, he survived, and now he stood next to Bai Xue again, bragging to her about how powerful and heroic he was.
"Okay, be quiet for me, this is the entrance to the River Styx, and I have not really entered the River Styx before I have encountered such trouble. Now there are only two of us on our side, and you are the only one who has combat power, so you have to be careful in everything!"
No need to be reminded by the snow, blowing snow is not stupid in this regard.
He just nodded firmly.
None of them forgot that the purpose of their trip was to enter the depths of the River Styx in search of the Yellow Spring of Origin, and to undo the spell that had caused him to be unconscious on Seven Nights.
"But just now, two human monks have escaped from your hands and entered the Styx ahead of schedule, and we spent a lot of time outside waiting for you to heal, and now that we have entered the Styx, it is likely to be even more passive. ”
"What should I do then?" Blowing Snow heard Bai Xue say that, and his face involuntarily showed anxiety.
At this time, Xiao Kongxue, who had been held by Bai Xue, turned over lazily in her arms, and then stretched a big lazy waist.
"Don't worry, they entered the River Styx, I'm afraid that they will not be able to protect themselves now!"
Xiao Kongxue blinked, she was sleeping enough to give Fuyuki and Bai Xue a shot in the arm, with Xiao Kongxue's mysterious ability to predict the unknown, their actions in the River Styx would definitely be more convenient.
"Without further ado, be careful not to consume too much spirit, let's enter the River Styx!"
Snow also knew that time was pressing, and it was too late to say anything more, so she decided to leave for the River Styx.
The entrance to the River Styx is right in front of you, and the dark corridor with no end in sight seems to be able to enter the River Styx and enter one of the most mysterious places of legend if you keep walking down this corridor.
"So, let's go. "Blowing snow carried seven nights on his back, crossed the white snow and empty snow, and walked at the front of the line.
......
Perhaps because there were no people, the road into the River Styx was so quiet that you could hear your own footsteps without listening closely. Even if Sanxue put the movement to the lightest, such a sound was still clearly audible.
But there is an upside to it.
That is, if Wang Hai and Zhao Jie, who entered the River Styx in advance, wanted to hide aside and sneak attack them, it would be impossible.
In such a quiet environment, they want to sneak attack quietly, unless their cultivation level is too high.
"It's so quiet, can we just go all the way down like this, and then go all the way to the deepest part of the River Styx to find the Yellow Spring?" Blowing Snow was worried all the way for a long time, but except for the sound of crooked footsteps that he had long been tired of hearing, there was not even a trace of a different scene around.
Such an environment was quiet, but very depressing, so he couldn't hold back for a while, and said to Bai Xue.
The sudden opening of the blowing snow made Bai Xue's nerves suddenly straighten, and after realizing that he was talking about blowing snow, he quickly relaxed.
It was precisely because of the sound of blowing snow that broke the silent environment of the River Styx, which had always been silent, and made the originally nervous mood of the two relax a little.
Compared to the nervous white snow and blowing snow, on the contrary, the empty snow who has just woken up from a slumber has an indifferent face, fear comes from the depths of a person's heart, and the worry and worry about the unknown, as a small empty snow with the ability to predict, such fear naturally does not exist.
She could predict something, but because of Bai Xue's previous instructions, she couldn't say it.
Once she said it, it would definitely consume a lot of Kuyuki's spirit, and even cause her to fall into a coma again.
Foreknowledge is one of the most powerful talents, and Sky Snow also plays a pivotal role in this trip to the River Styx.
Bai Xue resisted to ask Kong Xue more than once, she also knew that Kong Xue should have predicted something, which could dispel the anxiety in their hearts, but because of the momentary good feelings, Kong Xue might fall into a coma, she still held back.
"Don't speak, take your guard, we don't know what's inside the River Styx. ”
Saying that, but the conversation with Blowing Snow still made Bai Xue relax a little, not as nervous as when he first entered the River Styx.
The three of them continued to walk, the long road of the River Styx seemed to lead to death and the abyss, and the black oil and water that went up against the tide around them seemed to never stop, wrapping the road around them, leaving only a long passage to the unknown.
Gradually, the three of them went deeper and deeper, and the unchanged scene around the River Styx finally changed!
Those retrograde black waters, I don't know when they have completely stopped, and the whole above is like darkness that cannot be seen, and you can't feel the edge and the boundary.
Compared with these, what surprised and even frightened Sanxue even more was a black tower that suddenly appeared in front of them!
The tower is several feet high, and when you look up, you can see that there are dots of light at the top of the tower, which is a kind of orange-red flame, which is like a bean lamp in such a dark environment, exuding a faint brilliance.
If that's all it takes, it will only surprise Sanxue that there is such a tall tower in a mysterious place like the River Styx.
But what really frightened them was the densely packed things standing under the tower.
"This ...... Are these the lives that broke into the River Styx before, and they ...... All died under this tower?!"
It was the first time that Blowing Snow had seen such a landscape, and the scene was not even as bloody as the slaughter he had at the entrance of the River Styx, but in such a silent environment, it seemed eerie and terrifying, full of an obscure taste of evil and mystery.
"You see, there's a thread in those things!"
As a doctor, Bai Xue even knew about such things as dead man's medicine, and she reacted faster than Blowing Snow and saw the abnormalities on those things.
It was an almost dim and transparent light that would have been ignored if you hadn't paid attention, because it was so ethereal compared to such an eerie scene that it seemed to be deliberately hidden, avoiding the view.
After Bai Xue pointed it out, Blowing Snow looked at it again, and couldn't help but gasp again.
In this case, after Fuxue saw the hidden light, the picture of the entire tower took shape and turned into an extremely strange painting.
A dark tower, with a dim orange glow at the tip, surrounded below by a mass of dead creatures that seemed to have been sucked dry, and in the light of the light, they were all pulled by a faint ray of light, leading to the spire.
"Well, this is the Tower of Hell. Just when Blowing Snow and Bai Xue were shocked, there was a slight exclamation from the sound of Xiao Kongxue on the side.
But listening to her tone, I don't know how much calmer it is than blowing snow and snow, in comparison, it seems that the two of them are brothers and sisters who have never seen the world.
The scene became awkward again.
Bai Xuekong coughed a few times, and finally his curiosity overcame that insignificant little thought, and said, "Cough, that, little sister, what is the Hell Tower, if it doesn't affect the leakage of the unknown, can you explain it to us?"
She was very witty and pulled Blowing Snow directly into the water, obviously Blowing Snow was still staring at the tower in a daze, and she didn't come back to her senses for a while.
"Hell Tower? Hell Tower is a unique structure of the River Styx, and every creature that comes close to Hell Tower will be sucked by the light on the spire of Hell Tower, and then little by little through the light of Hell will devour the life force of that creature until it is sucked dry and turned into a corpse. ”
Kongxue explained casually, making Bai Xue's face pale, and he hurriedly dragged Fuxue who involuntarily walked to the Hell Tower.
Blowing Snow suddenly woke up, looking at Bai Xue next to him with a serious and nervous face, and didn't understand what was going on.
"What's wrong with you, why are you standing here stupidly, aren't we going deep into the Styx to find the Yellow Spring Water?" asked Fuyuki in surprise.
His words reminded Bai Xue that yes, it was impossible for them to give up on entering the depths of the River Styx, because the Yellow Spring Water was their goal this time. But the location of this Hell Tower is stuck here, cutting off their path to progress.
"It's not difficult, the amount of soul life that a hell tower can absorb is also limited, once it absorbs a sufficient number of life souls, it will temporarily stop absorbing and start evolving itself. Kuyuki spoke again.
"Hell Tower can still evolve!?" Fuyuki and Shirayuki were shocked again this time.
"Yes, otherwise do you think that the Hell Tower is that high?" Sky Xue rightfully stretched out her hand and drew a large circle.
Bai Xue was embarrassed and didn't speak, she couldn't just nod her head as naturally as Sora Xue did, and then said yes, that's what they thought.
"The Tower of Hell was only as tall as a dill at first, and the light at the top of its tower was very weak, and it could only absorb a small amount of Life Souls, but as it evolved again and again, the number of Life Souls it could absorb gradually increased. ”
Soyuki said, looking at the Hell Tower in front of him.
"Well, looking at the height of this Hell Tower, it should be able to absorb up to three hundred life souls, but there are already almost so many dead creatures under its tower, and looking at the dim light on its spire, it should be evolving at this time. ”
"Whew, it's evolving, that's good, that's good. Bai Xue patted her chest, she was already frightened by the strange scene in front of her.
But before she could relax temporarily, Kongxue's words made her nervous again.
"However, these creatures have turned into a state of dried corpses, indicating that the evolution of this hell tower is almost over, and it may wake up at any time. ”
As soon as he heard this, Blowing Snow was clever, he and Bai Xue glanced at each other, Bai Xue took Kong Xue in his arms, and the two of them immediately made a decision and ran towards the bottom of the Hell Tower.
The sound of the wind in my ears and the slightly messy footsteps compose a beautiful and moving music in the entire silent Styx.
Against the clock.
Desperate run.
