Chapter 477: Entering the Styx
After this monster appeared, its single eye rolled around and immediately fell on the huge blood ball, flashing a strange light.
It seemed as if it didn't see Ye Changsheng and the demon kings and others at all.
The huge head groaned, opened its big mouth, and spurted out a stream of silver light, which swept all the blood balls below and rolled them back.
With a "puff" sound, the blood ball was swallowed by the monster in one gulp.
The Jingkong Demon's light flashed, and his whole body turned bright red, as if he had been instantly dyed red by swallowing blood.
A few muffled sounds like burps came out of the big mouth , and the huge head began to shake. Then the body turned and returned to the big black hole it had torn open, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
The Jingkong Demon actually left like this.
The four demon kings all had indifferent expressions and did not step forward to stop it, leaving the huge black hole floating in the sky.
"Okay, the Sky-Jing Demon has torn open the space channel, let's go in as soon as possible!" Liuzu's cold voice sounded.
But after he said this, none of the other three demon kings moved.
Seeing this, Liuzu didn't say anything, but suddenly moved and flew directly into the dark hole.
After it was completely submerged in the cave, the burly man said calmly, "Daoist Liuzu has already gone in, let's go in too, Daoist Ye, you go first!"
The other two demon kings also looked at Ye Changsheng, as if they wanted him to go in first before they would follow him.
Seeing this, Ye Changsheng smiled faintly, flapped his wings behind him, and whooshed into the passage, turning into a ray of green light.
The three demon kings behind him immediately followed.
The passage in front of him was very long, but surprisingly stable. Although it was shaky, it was much stronger than the space passages Ye Changsheng had seen before.
The six-legged figure was right in front. He was flying very slowly and cautiously, as if he was ready to avoid something at any time.
Seeing this, Ye Changsheng became more alert and followed slowly.
The black passage was not too long. Ye Changsheng flew forward for only a thousand feet before stopping. An exit to another space appeared in front of him.
A bone-chilling chill came over them, and it seemed that even the human bone marrow would be frozen. A cultivator with low cultivation would probably be frozen to death instantly if he arrived here.
Ye Changsheng flew out of the passage and looked forward, only to see a vast expanse of white water curtain blocking the way hundreds of feet away.
This water curtain is like a huge light shield, covering the vast space in front. If you want to enter that space, you can only break through the water curtain.
Ye Changsheng looked over carefully. The water in front of him was milky white, extremely turbid, and exuded an extremely cold and gloomy aura.
"This should be the restriction on the Styx set up by the Mayfly Clan to protect the land of the Styx!" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
Several rays of light flashed behind him, and three demon kings including Mu Qing and Gui Pozi also appeared behind Ye Changsheng.
The six-legged creature in front was wearing a black robe, standing quietly in the air, looking at the water curtain, motionless, and no one knew what he was thinking.
After a long while, he seemed to react, turned around and said, "Fellow Daoist Ye, I'm going to trouble you next!"
"I will do my best!" Ye Changsheng nodded in response.
Liu Zu nodded in satisfaction after hearing this, and then looked at the other demon kings and said, "It will be extremely troublesome to break the restriction of the Styx River. In addition to Fellow Daoist Ye using the Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder to disperse the evil spirit in the Styx River, we also have to take action to separate the Styx River!"
"Brother Liuzu, just give me your orders!"
"As long as it is for the sake of obtaining the Styx Divine Milk, no matter what, we will do our best!"
…
Several demon kings expressed their opinions, and Liuzu nodded when he saw this.
Then, the five of them stood in a row, facing the light curtain of the water of the Styx, their expressions becoming solemn.
A black light began to surge on Liuzu's body, and under Mu Qing's feet, the giant golden flower began to spin rapidly.
An extremely black and old bell appeared in the hand of the white-haired woman, while two beams of golden light burst out of the eyes of the burly man, staring at the water of the Styx intently.
Seeing this, Ye Changsheng also moved. He pinched his hands together, and suddenly golden arcs surrounded his body. A layer of electric net emerged and grew rapidly. After a roar, it turned into a golden halo.
Golden runes danced in all directions, and a halo of light flashed before condensing into a golden sphere, floating lightly above one hand.
Ye Changsheng held a golden ball in his hand and watched the actions of the demon kings with a solemn expression.
They began to try to break the ban. After a loud bang, Liuzu raised one hand and slapped it forward. In an instant, a black beam of light shot out from his hand.
This beam of light was extremely thick, and its dark luster gave people a very dangerous feeling. Wherever the beam of light passed, even the nearby space was distorted and deformed, as if wrinkled.
The beam of light flashed and disappeared directly into the dark water.
The originally calm and peaceful water of the Styx finally changed. Circles of ripples spread out, and then the water of the Styx began to spin madly around the column of light, faster and faster, making a deafening roar.
Seeing this, Mu Qing quickly followed suit. The golden flower under his feet grew rapidly in size and began to spin. When it stood up, it turned into a huge golden halo and flew straight forward.
This light wheel was several feet in diameter, and it emitted a sound of wind and thunder as it rotated. It quickly crashed into the dark water. Suddenly, after a flash of golden light, the originally rotating water surface finally emitted a heavy roar and then separated.
A white hole slowly emerged and extended with the light column as the center, but the water curtain around it was shaking violently , as if it would rush over at any time and fill the hole again.
Obviously this passage is extremely unstable and may collapse at any time.
At this time, several other attacks also appeared at the right time. Two golden lights shot out from the burly man's eyes and rushed into the hole.
The old black bell in the white-haired woman's hand emitted a black light and crashed into the dark water.
With so many attacks combined, after a deafening roar, the Styx was completely split apart, and an underwater canyon about tens of feet high and more than ten feet wide slowly formed.
But at this moment, a strange sound began to come from the nearby water curtain, and then strands of crystal clear black threads emerged from the dark water.
These black silks were densely packed and rushed madly towards the magic power used by the demon kings to maintain the huge canyon, wrapping it up.
In the blink of an eye, the astonishing attacks launched by several demon kings together, whether it was the light pillars or the light wheel blades, all dimmed under the wrapping of these black silks. The offensive immediately slowed down and showed a downward trend.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, please take action quickly!" Liu Zu's urgent voice sounded immediately.
Upon hearing this, Ye Changsheng did not delay. He gently flicked the five fingers of his hand that was holding the golden ball in the air upwards.
With a "puff", the golden ball turned into a beam of golden light and shot into the sky.
His other hand quickly pointed a few times, and a huge golden rune emerged.
After a thunderbolt from the blue sky, a strong wind suddenly blew in the nearby sky, and dark clouds gathered in the sky. A golden sun emerged from the clouds, and an aura that seemed to destroy the world rose from the clouds.
The surface of the scorching sun was flashing with lightning, and the sound of thunder was continuous and shockingly low.
Ye Changsheng had a solemn expression on his face. He uttered an obscure spell and pointed a finger at the water in front of him.
In an instant, a golden beam of light as thick as a water tank shot out from the golden sun in the sky, and after a few flashes, it hit the water of the Styx.
A strange muffled "bang" sound came from the water surface. The moment the golden light column touched the water surface, it turned into golden lightning arcs and spread out in circles.
Wherever the lightning passed, the crystal black threads emerging from the water of the Styx were turned into ashes in the golden light.
Seeing this, Liuzu and others were overjoyed, and hurriedly used their magical powers to continue attacking the water surface. Before long, this canyon-like passage ran through the entire water curtain, forming a passage leading to the River Styx.
"It's open, let's go over there quickly!" Liuzu said with a hint of joy in his voice.
Then, he immediately turned into a black light and flew towards the passage. Seeing this, Ye Changsheng and others immediately followed.
Not long after, they passed through the passage and arrived at the real Styx.
The scene before them stunned everyone.
There are so many white bones that you can't see the end at a glance!
In front of everyone, on a vast plain, all kinds of bones were densely scattered.
These bones are of different sizes, obviously the remains of various creatures. They are either piled up high, or are mottled in color, appearing extremely old.
Waves of foul odors wafted faintly from the depths of the Plain of Bones, making people feel uneasy after smelling them.
“Is this the land of the Styx?”
Looking at the scene before them, several demon kings showed surprise on their faces, and they all turned their gazes towards Liuzu.
Liu Zu's calm voice sounded: "Fellow Daoists, there is no need to look at me like that. I have never seen what the real Styx looks like, but since we have passed the Styx restriction, this place should be the Styx land."
"Fellow Daoist Liuzu, we followed you in because we believed what you said about the Divine Milk of the Styx. Now that we are here, you have to take us to find the Divine Milk of the Styx!" said the burly man in a cold voice.
“Fellow Daoist Zhu, don’t worry. I want to get the Styx Divine Milk more than you do. However, I don’t know exactly where the Styx Divine Milk is. We still need to explore!”
"Fortunately, according to my understanding, this Styx is not very big. We should be able to explore it roughly by spending a few months!" Liuzu said lightly.
"What are your plans next, Brother Ye? Do you want to join us?" Mu Qing suddenly turned around and asked with a twinkling eye.
"Hehe, that's not necessary. I'm not interested in the Styx Divine Milk. I plan to go back after exploring this Styx land. I won't be with you fellow Taoists!" Ye Changsheng said lightly as a pair of green wings appeared behind him.
"Oh, Fellow Daoist Ye, do you think you can leave this Styx by yourself? This is an independent space. If we don't take action, relying solely on Fellow Daoist Ye's own strength, I'm afraid..." Liuzu looked over and said in a somewhat cold voice.
"Don't worry about that, fellow Taoists. I have my own way!" Ye Changsheng said, and he flapped the wings behind him, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
This scene immediately made several demon kings look at each other in bewilderment, and they couldn't help but become suspicious.
How can Ye Changsheng, a spiritual commander, leave this Styx on his own?
After his figure disappeared, the eyes of several demon kings immediately became gloomy.
You know, many of them originally had the idea of getting rid of Ye Changsheng after he had done his work. They thought that after passing the restriction of the Styx, they would join forces to plot against Ye Changsheng and kill him.
They always felt somewhat uneasy about such an outsider, and the divine thunder that could ward off evil spirits on him also made several demon kings quite envious.
But I didn't expect him to be so alert and leave alone after he came in.
This made these people feel like a cooked duck had flown away.
"It seems that this kid has noticed some of our thoughts, so he slipped away so quickly!" Mu Qing's eyes flashed and he said lightly.
"Humph, I've already said that we should have found a way to get rid of him when we were in the Underworld. After we get the Divine Thunder to Repel Evil, why would we need him anymore?" said the burly man with a somewhat ferocious expression.
"Fellow Daoist Zhu, we have already discussed this matter a long time ago. Killing him in the Abyss is likely to damage the Golden Thunder Bamboo magic weapon, which will hinder our plan to enter the Styx. Why are we still talking about this now?" said the white-haired woman with impatience on her face.
Listening to the conversation between the few people, Liu Zu suddenly sneered and said without any emotion in his voice: "Do you really think you can defeat that kid?"
"I have said long ago that this person's strength is extraordinary. I am afraid that he is not worse than the average beginner of the fusion stage. In addition, his speed is comparable to that of the great fusion stage. It is almost impossible to kill him!"
The burly man frowned upon hearing this and said in disbelief, "Brother Liuzu, don't you think too highly of him?"
"You don't know enough about him. You only know that he has great magical powers, but you don't know that his physical body is also top-notch!"
"If I'm not mistaken, this kid is probably practicing both magic and body. His body is even stronger than mine. If you fight with him, you'll probably be caught off guard and suffer a great loss!" Liu Zu said coldly.
"Cultivating both the Dharma and the body? Did you see that correctly, fellow Daoist?" the white-haired woman shouted, as if she was extremely surprised.
"Haha, I have a natural ability that allows me to see through the strength of a person's body. This person is a human cultivator from a remote corner of Fengyuan Continent. I don't know how he got here!"
"As far as I know, the human race is one of the races with the weakest physical bodies in Fengyuan Continent, but this kid's physical body has been cultivated to this level. Obviously, there is some secret in him!" Liuzu said in a flat voice.
