Wang Yu
Chapter 1279: Exploring the Underworld?
However, the surrounding force was too great. He felt like a withered leaf in the midst of a raging river, completely helpless as he was冲向 into the unknown depths of darkness.
This force initially pulled straight down, but soon it twisted, pulling Han Li's body left and right, making him feel dizzy.
Later on, he simply gave up struggling, only protecting the vital parts of his body. At the same time, he released his spiritual sense to constantly probe the changes in the surrounding environment, while also trying to locate Jin Tong and Ti Hun.
Fortunately, he could still sense the location of Jin Tong and Ti Hun, but it was somewhat erratic, sometimes near and sometimes far.
After tossing and turning for an unknown period, Han Li's body suddenly sank, as if he had fallen to the ground.
Then, with two dull thuds, two bodies crashed heavily on Han Li, precisely Jin Tong and Ti Hun.
Ti Hun was fine, but Jin Tong's body was as hard as an iron lump, causing Han Li to roll his eyes.
"Master, are you alright?" Ti Hun hurriedly stood up.
"Uncle, I didn't do it on purpose!" Jin Tong stood up silently, a hint of apology flashing in his eyes.
"It's fine, luckily my body is strong. By the way, take a look, what is this place?" Han Li waved his hand and stood up, looking around.
The three of them were standing in a desert. The sky was pitch black, and the light was very dim. They could barely see within a radius of ten or twenty miles around them, but beyond that was a vast expanse of darkness, completely invisible.
The surrounding yin winds howled, and ear-piercing ghost cries could be heard at any time. The cold wind was bone-chilling, and the yin energy was omnipresent, several times more concentrated than in the Fallen Soul Valley.
Han Li and Jin Tong frowned slightly, each activating the power of their Laws to protect their bodies, only then resisting the erosion of the surrounding yin energy.
Ti Hun, on the other hand, did not feel uncomfortable at all. Instead, she felt extremely comfortable with the incredibly dense yin ghost energy here.
"Judging from the situation, this place should be the Underworld. After so much trouble, we have finally arrived," Ti Hun said with certainty, rubbing her stomach.
"This is indeed the Underworld." Han Li nodded thoughtfully.
Although he didn't think Ti Hun had ever been to the Underworld, for some reason, he felt that Ti Hun's judgment would not be wrong.
"In any case, the commotion we just made has probably attracted the attention of some beings here. Who knows what dangers there are, it's best to change locations first," Jin Tong reminded.
Han Li and Ti Hun naturally had no objections to this.
The situation was the same in all directions around them. After a brief discussion, the three of them randomly chose a direction and quickly flew away.
Less than half an incense stick after Han Li and the others left, more than a dozen black shadows flew from afar. They looked like half-human, half-beast ghosts, different in appearance from the Soul Reapers and the ghost soldiers under the command of the black-robed middle-aged man.
These half-human, half-beast ghosts surrounded the place where the three of them landed, sniffing fiercely, with expressions of excitement on their faces.
Then, most of these dozen ghosts took to the air and chased after Han Li and the others, leaving only one ghost behind, raising its head and making a sharp hissing sound.
After a while, a large expanse of black clouds connecting the sky and the earth appeared in the distance, flying over rapidly.
In the clouds, one ghost after another flew, densely packed, countless in number, all flying in the direction where Han Li and the others were heading.
……
Han Li and the others flew forward silently. Due to the unfamiliar environment and the unknown safety of the future, the three of them were not flying fast.
While flying, Han Li released his spiritual sense to sense the surrounding situation. At the same time, he activated the Nine Nether Devil Eyes, and two purple lights shot out from his eyes, looking forward.
The yin energy in the void was too heavy, which greatly affected the diffusion of the spiritual sense. It could only barely spread about a hundred miles. Any further, and the spiritual sense could not continue.
On the other hand, his Nine Nether Devil Eyes could see further, but only about five hundred miles.
Han Li couldn't help but frown secretly. A distance of five hundred miles seemed not close, but for people of their cultivation level, it was nothing at all, and they could fly to it in the blink of an eye.
"Master, there is a big river more than a thousand miles ahead, which looks very strange." Ti Hun suddenly said.
"A thousand miles away? Ti Hun, how far can you探查?" Han Li's eyes flashed, and he asked.
"The yin ghost energy here is too heavy, which greatly affects my spiritual sense. If I探查 with all my strength, I can探查 about two thousand miles." Ti Hun calculated secretly and said.
"Jin Tong, what about you?" Han Li looked at Jin Tong.
"I'm not good at 探查 ah, I can only see a range of seventy or eighty miles... Uncle, what's wrong with you? If I remember correctly, this is the first time you've cared about my spiritual sense range." Jin Tong asked strangely.
"It's nothing, I can only see five hundred miles, which is far worse than Ti Hun. The reconnaissance aspect will be left to you." Han Li said to Ti Hun.
"Maybe it has something to do with my physique. For some reason, I always feel that this place gives me a sense of déjà vu... No problem, leave it to me." Ti Hun patted her chest and said.
The distance of a thousand miles passed in the blink of an eye, and the three of them soon arrived near the black river that Ti Hun mentioned.
The black river was very large, and Han Li's sight could not see the edge. The river was surging, rolling up black waves, flowing downstream.
But strangely, the river water was雄浑浩大, but it did not make a sound, which seemed extremely strange.
Strands of black mist rose from the river, constantly飄蕩 towards the sky.
In the sky hundreds of feet above the river, there was a thick layer of black clouds, which looked like it was凝集 from the river's mist. In the clouds, one could vaguely see black lightning flashing, giving people a bad feeling.
Han Li and the others stopped by the river and did not rashly continue forward.
"Ti Hun, can you探测 to the other side of this river?" Han Li asked Ti Hun.
Hearing this, Ti Hun's eyes showed a layer of black light, looking forward. Soon, she shook her head and said:
"No, I can't see the edge either."
"This black river is so vast and奔流不息, but how can there be no sound at all? Let me try!" Jin Tong said, raising his hand and waving.
A hundred-zhang-long golden light flew out,斬 in the river, but it silently entered the surging waves, without splashing a single wave.
Seeing this scene, the three of them frowned.
The golden light emitted by Jin Tong seemed ordinary, but it contained a lot of power. Even a mountain peak could be easily split, but斬 in this river, there was no reaction at all.
"This river hides a very large ghost energy, and it has a very strong erosive effect. It is best not to沾染 it," Ti Hun said slowly, looking at the black river.
"Uncle, what do we do now? Should we try to cross the black river, or walk along the river?" Jin Tong looked at Han Li.
Han Li thought for a moment and pinched a magic formula.
A golden light flew out of his sleeve, which was a golden bean, quickly growing larger, and in the blink of an eye turned into a zhang-sized golden Dao Soldier.
"Go!" Han Li pointed his finger again, and a golden lightning light shot out,融入 into the Dao Soldier's body.
Golden lightning patterns immediately appeared around the golden Dao Soldier's body, and the aura it emitted increased by倍许. It flew towards the opposite side of the black river.
But the Dao Soldier did not fly far. A loud roar sounded in the black clouds in the air, and a bowl-thick black lightning fell down, hitting the golden Dao Soldier with extreme speed.
The entire body of the golden Dao Soldier immediately turned pitch black, all the spiritual power fluctuations disappeared without a trace, and it fell down like a black stone, falling into the black river.
The river instantly surged, and countless ear-piercing ghost howls came from the sky.
Countless hideous and terrifying insects and snake monsters suddenly窜 out from the black river, submerging the Dao Soldier in an instant. Accompanied by scalp-numbing roars, the Dao Soldier's body instantly collapsed,撕裂 into countless pieces, and then devoured by those snake and insect monsters.
Han Li and the others changed their expressions when they saw this scene.
Those snake and insect monsters then looked fiercely at Han Li and the others on the shore, as if they couldn't wait to devour the three of them as well, but they did not pounce on them after all, but潜入 under the water and quickly disappeared.
The black river quickly returned to calm again, flowing silently, as if nothing had happened.
"It seems that it is not easy to cross this river." Jin Tong said with a worried look.
"The black lightning in the clouds seems to have the effect of eroding immortal spiritual power. Even if you and I are hit, I am afraid it will not be easy. Let's go along the river for a while to see the situation. By the way, Ti Hun, that Yama Cauldron had the effect of guidance before,祭 out again and see." Han Li nodded and said, suddenly remembering something.
"That's right, I almost forgot about this." Ti Hun's eyes lit up and waved to祭 out the Yama Cauldron.
The Yama Cauldron hovered quietly in front of Ti Hun,绽放 a light several times brighter than usual, and seemed to resonate with the sinister ghost energy here, but it no longer guided the direction.
"It seems that this cauldron only sensed the aura of this place and guided us here, and there is no deeper meaning." Ti Hun sighed and said.
"But looking at the Yama Cauldron's reaction, it was mostly born here or has some other deeper connection... In short, we should not have找 wrong place." Han Li was not discouraged, but smiled and said.
Since the Yama Cauldron belonged to this place, then the Yama Palace was also very likely to be here.
"What Master said is also true. In that case, let's explore this place carefully." Ti Hun nodded and said.
After a brief discussion, the three decided to move upstream of the black river.
At this moment, Ti Hun's expression suddenly changed.
"Not good, a large number of ghosts are flying towards here!"
As soon as Ti Hun's voice fell, a thunderous sound rang from the distant sky, and countless ghosts蜂拥 like a raging wave, the fierce aura was truly appalling.
Countless roars and screams came,充斥 the entire天地.
"Meet the enemy."
Han Li's eyes flashed, and his entire body suddenly金光大盛. Thirty-six Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords appeared out of thin air around him, each flying sword缠绕 with thick golden lightning.
