Chapter 1279: Exploring the Nether
Han Li felt that his body was falling down uncontrollably. As his mind turned, he used all his strength to mobilize all the power in his body, trying to stabilize his body.
But the power around him was too great. He felt like a dead leaf among the huge waves of the river, and he was completely rushed into the unknown depths of darkness.
The force was still straight downward at the beginning, but it quickly twisted, pulling Han Li's body left and right, making him feel dizzy.
Later, he was fortunate to give up struggling and only protected a few vital points on his body. At the same time, he released his spiritual sense to continuously detect changes in the surrounding situation, and at the same time tried to lock in the golden boy and the crying soul.
Fortunately, he could still sense the direction of the Golden Boy and the Soul, but it was a little erratic, as if it was far and near.
After a while, Han Li's body suddenly sank, as if he had fallen to the ground.
Then there were two dull sounds of "bang" and "bang", and the two bodies slammed heavily on Han Li, which was Jin Tong and Ting Hun.
The crying soul was fine, Jin Tong's body was as hard as an iron lump, which made Han Li roll his eyes.
"Master, are you okay?" Tihun hurriedly stood up.
"Uncle, I didn't mean it!" Jin Tong stood up silently, a hint of apology flashed in his eyes.
"It's okay, fortunately, I'm strong. By the way, look at what's this?" Han Li waved his hand and stood up and looked around.
The three of them were standing in a desert at this moment. The sky was pitch black and the light was very dim. Except for the area within a 10 or 20 miles around, the distance was a dark area, which was completely invisible.
The surrounding wind howled angrily, and the harsh ghosts could be heard at any time. The cold wind was biting, and the yin and cold air was everywhere, several times more intense than the down-and-out storm.
Han Li and Jin Tong frowned slightly, and each used the power of the law to protect their whole body, which was to resist the erosion of the surrounding cold air.
Not only did crying soul not feel uncomfortable, but it was more comfortable with the extremely rich cold ghost energy here.
"Following this situation, this place should be the underworld. We have ruined so many twists and turns, and finally we have arrived." Tihun rubbed his stomach and said confidently.
"This is indeed the underworld." Han Li nodded thoughtfully.
Although he did not think that Tihun had been to the underworld, for some reason, he just felt that Tihun's judgment would not be wrong.
"No matter what, the movement we made just now may have attracted the attention of some existing people here. Who knows what dangers are here? It would be better to change the place first." Jin Tong reminded.
Han Li and Ti Hun naturally had no objection to this.
The situation was the same in all directions around. After a little bit of a plan, the three of them chose one direction and flew away quickly.
Han Li and the other two had just left less than half a stick of incense, and more than a dozen black shadows flew from a distance, but they looked like half-human and half-beasted ghosts, with different appearances from soul-catching messengers, and ghost soldiers under the command of a middle-aged man in black robe.
These half-human and half-beasted ghosts surrounded the three of them where they landed, sniffed hard, and showed excitement on their faces.
Then most of the dozen ghosts rose into the air and chased Han Li and the other two. Only one ghost stayed, tilting his head and making a sharp scream.
A moment later, a large area of black clouds that were connected to the sky appeared in the distance, and flew over quickly.
There were ghosts flying in the clouds, densely packed, and I don’t know how many of them were flying towards Han Li and the other two.
...
Han Li and the other two flew forward silently. Due to the unfamiliar environment here and the future was uncertain, the three of them did not fly quickly.
While flying, Han Li emitted his spiritual sense to sense the surrounding situation. At the same time, he circulated the Nine Nether Demon Eyes, and two purple lights shot out from his eyes, looking forward.
The yin and cold energy in the void is too strong, which has a great impact on the spread of spiritual consciousness. It can only spread for a hundred miles, and the spiritual consciousness will be unable to survive even if it is far away.
On the contrary, his Nine Nether Demon Eyes could see further, but he could only see about five hundred miles.
Han Li couldn't help but frown. Five hundred miles away seemed not close, but for people with their cultivation level, it was nothing at all. They could fly there in the blink of an eye.
"Master, there is a big river more than a thousand miles ahead, which looks very strange." Tihun on the side suddenly spoke.
"Thousands of miles away? Tinghun, how far can you find?" Han Li asked with a flash of eyes.
"The Yin and Cold Ghost here is too strong, and it has a great impact on my spiritual consciousness. I can detect it with all my strength and I can detect it for about two thousand miles." Tihun calculated secretly and said.
"Where are you, Jin Tong?" Han Li looked at Jin Tong.
"I'm not good at exploring, I can only see a range of seventy or eighty miles... Uncle, what's wrong with you? If I remember correctly, it's the first time you're concerned about my spiritual range." Jin Tong asked strangely.
"It's nothing, I can only see that five hundred miles are not as good as Tihun. I will leave the investigation to you." Han Li said to Tihun.
"Maybe it has something to do with my physique. For some reason, I always feel like I feel familiar... No problem, leave it to me." Tihun patted his chest and said.
A thousand miles away passed in the blink of an eye, and the three of them soon arrived near the black river in Tihun's mouth.
The Heihe River is very large, and Han Li can't see the edges. Hanoi's waves are surging, rolling up black waves and flowing downstream.
But what is strange is that the river water is majestic and vast, but it makes no sound, making it look extremely strange.
Straws of black mist evaporated from the river and kept floating towards the air.
In the air hundreds of feet above the river, a thick layer of black clouds floated, which seemed to be formed by the fog condensed in the river. Black lights can be seen vaguely flashing in the clouds, giving people a bad feeling.
Han Li and the other two stopped by the river and did not continue to move forward rashly.
"Tihun, can you detect the other side of the river?" Han Li asked Tihun.
Upon hearing this, a layer of black light appeared in his eyes. He looked forward, quickly shook his head and said:
"No, I can't see the edge."
"This Black River is so vast and flowing endlessly, but how could it be without a single sound? Let's try it!" Jin Tong said, raising his hand and waved it.
A golden light that was hundreds of feet long flew out and slashed into the river, but silently sank into the rushing waves without splashing any waves.
Seeing this scene, the three of them frowned.
The golden light emitted by Jin Tong seemed ordinary, but it contained a considerable power. Even a mountain could easily break it, but it didn't react at all when it was cut in the river.
"There is a very huge ghost energy hidden in Hanoi, and it has a strong erosion effect. It is best not to be contaminated." Tihun looked at Heihe and said slowly.
"Uncle, what should I do now? Should I try to cross the Heihe River or walk along the river?" Jin Tong looked at Han Li.
Han Li pondered slightly and made a little gesture.
A ball of golden light flew out of his sleeve, but it was a golden bean that quickly grew bigger and turned into a golden Taoist soldier about the size of a foot in a blink of an eye.
"Go!" Han Li leaned his fingers a little again, and a golden lightning shot out and merged into the body of the Taoist soldier.
A series of golden thunder patterns suddenly appeared around the golden Taoist soldiers, and the aura they emitted increased by more than twice, and they flew towards the opposite side of the Heihe River.
But the Taoist soldiers did not fly far away. A rumbling sound was heard in the black clouds in the air, and a black lightning as thick as a bowl fell down, hitting the golden Taoist soldiers in an extremely rapid manner.
The whole body of the golden Taoist soldier immediately turned black, and all the fluctuations of spiritual power disappeared without a trace, falling down like a black stone, falling into the black river.
The river tumbling instantly, and countless harsh ghost roars came overwhelmingly.
I saw countless hideous and terrifying insects and snake monsters suddenly emerged from the black river, drowning the Taoist soldiers. With the numb roars, the Taoist soldiers' bodies collapsed instantly, torn into countless pieces, and then were swallowed up by the snakes, insects and monsters.
When Han Li and the other two saw this scene, their expressions changed.
The snake, insect and monsters then looked at Han Li and the other two on the shore with great fierceness, as if they wanted to swallow and eat them, but they did not pounce on them, but dived underwater and soon disappeared.
The Heihe soon returned to peace and flowed silently, as if nothing had happened.
"It seems that it is not easy to cross this river." Jin Tong said with a frown.
"The black lightning in the clouds seems to have the effect of eroding the power of immortal spirits. Even if you and I are hit, I may not feel good. I should go along the river for a while and see the situation. By the way, the crying soul, the Yama Cauldron has been used as a guide before, and then sacrifice it for a while." Han Li nodded and suddenly remembered something and said.
"Yes, I almost forgot this." Tihun's eyes lit up and he waved his hand to sacrifice the Cauldron of Yama.
The Cauldron of Yama was quietly suspended in front of the crying soul, emitting a light that was several times brighter than usual. It seemed to resonate with the gloomy ghost energy here, but it did not guide the direction.
"It seems that this tripod just senses the breath of this place and guides us over, and it has no deeper meaning." Tihun sighed and said.
"But looking at the reaction of the Cauldron of Yama, it is mostly born here or there are other deeper connections... In short, we should not find the wrong place." Han Li was not discouraged, but smiled and said.
Since the Cauldron of Yama belongs to this place, the Palace of Yama is also very likely to be here.
"The master said that, since that's the case, let's explore here well." Tihun nodded and said.
The three of them discussed for a brief discussion and decided to move towards the upper reaches of Heihe River.
At this moment, Tihun's expression suddenly changed.
"No, there are a large number of ghosts flying towards here!"
As soon as the sound of the soul cries fell, a sound of thunder sounded from the distant sky, and countless ghosts swarmed in like raging waves. The fierce momentum was really terrifying.
Countless roars and screams came, filling the entire world.
"Come on."
