Dayuantan is a very representative place in the life and death section of the Curseless Road.
It is close to the Styx River, the terrain is empty, and there are countless luminous minerals in the rock formations above, which makes the visibility here very high.
It's like a moonlit night.
The reason why it is called Dayuantan is because there is a bottomless deep water area here.
When the raging Styx River flowed through here, the water became much gentler, and the underground sediment accumulated nearby. Over the years, an open, plain-like area was formed.
There is a weak light source, open terrain, gentle rivers, and water sources. So over time, countless demons and evil spirits gradually gathered here.
In addition, this is the only way to pass between Fengdu and Yangshi. Whether anyone enters Yangshi from Fengdu, or takes the uncursed road from Yangshi to Fengdu, Dayuantan is the only way to pass.
The Secret Bureau has wanted to set up a station here countless times.
However, heavy losses were suffered every time, and the temporary settlements were destroyed by the demons and evil spirits, resulting in the death of countless demon-suppressing soldiers.
It is worth mentioning that, on the contrary, the Wanted Criminals Alliance is thriving here, and even many materials from the Yangshi are extremely popular here.
The Secret Bureau thought about it again and again, and finally decided to change the location from light to dark.
Only then did he barely get a foothold in the Great Abyssal Pond.
The Great Abyss Pond should have been in chaos for a long time now.
As the pollution of souls intensifies, the number of ghost believers is increasing, and among them there are not a few who retain their consciousness like Madam Yin and Master Renqing.
I even suspect that the earthquake and black fog in Wucura Road were caused by these things.
Otherwise, why would the general of the demon-suppressing force mobilize all his forces to try to attack the ghost believers in the Great Abyss Pond?
You must know that the Demon Suppression Force is famously proud.
Lord Sima, the commander-in-chief, even has eyes on the top of his head.
On weekdays, when meeting folk exorcists, they always say coldly: The demon-suppressing troops are doing their work, and everyone else, please get out of here.
Good thing now, Lord Sima personally ordered that even the folk exorcists who entered the Uncursed Road be invited.
As long as it's not a white curse or a wanted criminal like Yu Bushun, that's fine.
Zhang Sanfen and I discussed in low voices as we walked.
After a while, we both heard the sound of the surging water of the River Styx.
I recalled the map of the Underground Mountains and Rivers of the Uncursed Road that I had seen, then compared it with my position and said, "Boss, it's about forty kilometers from here to the Great Yuantan."
It is more than 40 kilometers away, and with the physical ability of an exorcist, it takes about three hours to get there.
But there is no serious road at all on the Uncursed Road. It is bumpy and bumpy, and sometimes you even have to use ropes to climb.
At this time, the dead soul is much more cheerful.
Anyway, it has no entity and floats here and there, which is easier than an exorcist.
Zhang Sanfen said: "Walk along the river."
Although the Styx is an underground river, it also has flood and dry seasons.
When the amount of water is large, it will wash away the surrounding rock walls and river beds.
When the amount of water is low, part of the river bed will be exposed.
In comparison, this road is much better than the rugged underground world.
More than 40 kilometers, for us, it only takes five or six hours, and this is still a normal walking speed.
But again, this path is also very risky.
Let’s not talk about the countless water ghosts living in the River Styx, nor the various dead souls that depend on the River Styx.
Moreover, according to rumors, the famous Underworld Unsinkable Corpse also likes to hang out by the river.
People without any strength will really die if they take this path.
I glanced at Zhang Sanfen, then nodded, turned over and climbed down along the rock wall of the river bank to the edge of the Styx River.
This is my first time to have such close contact with the River Styx.
I didn't need to reach out to touch the water of the Styx, just the cold air emanating from it made me shiver.
Looking up, I saw scattered starlight above my head, which was the faint light emitted by the fluorite underground.
The light was very weak, but it reflected sparkling waves on the river.
The exposed river bed is very flat because it has been washed by the Styx all year round.
The two of us walked forward quickly. Not long after we walked, I suddenly said: "Boss, look at the other side!"
There is a string of small green lights on the opposite side.
Because it was so dark around, I initially thought the small lights were fluorite mixed in the rocks.
But then I felt something was wrong.
Because there is a string of small green lights that are constantly moving, and the moving speed is in sync with us.
Zhang Sanfen glanced at it and said: "It's the souls of the dead who are on their way, but I don't know if they are ghost believers."
The width of this section of the Styx is only over 40 meters, the water waves are gentle and the noise is not loud.
As long as we speak a little louder, the other party should be able to hear us.
Zhang Sanfen said: "Don't worry about them, they are all going to Dayuantan anyway..."
Before he finished speaking, a sharp voice suddenly came from the opposite side: "Is the brother opposite him a corpse clan?"
"We are ghost missions from the Fengdu Shanxi Division! We were ordered to go to Dayuantan to encircle and suppress ghost believers!"
Zhang Sanfen and I were stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
It turns out that our yang energy is not obvious, but our steps are heavy.
So much so that the other party actually mistook us for the zombie clan.
Zhang Sanfen rolled his eyes and said: "We are the corpse tribe of the Moro Corpse Garden, the land of the dead!"
"I also received the order from Lord Corpse Demon to rush to the Great Abyss Pond to encircle and suppress the ghost believers."
There was a cheer from the opposite side, and then the sharp voice said: "My name is Guixiao, what do you call me brother?"
Zhang Sanfen replied: "My name is Shi Wu Ming!"
Suddenly there was a green glow on the opposite side, and a blue will-o'-the-wisp rose up, illuminating the entire river in a faint blue.
Only then did I say in surprise: "Yinhuo!"
Zhang Sanfen said: "This is phosphorus fire."
The temperature of phosphorus fire is very low, even if you hold it in your hand, it will not be hot.
So this is also one of the most commonly used flames by the dead.
Speaking of which, phosphorus fire is the lowest ranked and most widely used among the seventy-two yin fires.
Under the light of the fire, I discovered that a group of dead souls were crossing over on a raft made of rotten wood.
Although the raft was simple, there were more than thirty dead souls crowded on it.
They grabbed a piece of wood in their hands and rowed this way desperately. From time to time they looked behind them, as if there was something extremely scary behind them.
Zhang Sanfen was dumbfounded, and I couldn't help but say "f*ck".
Who would have thought that the boss just agreed casually, and the other party actually rowed a raft across the Styx!
You must know that the water ghosts in the River Styx are extremely cruel things. If you catch the dead souls, you can chew them in half.
Although they have a raft, they also bear risks.
Zhang Sanfen scolded: "Damn it! Are you a dog-skin plaster? Just promise and you have to stick it over?"
I looked carefully toward the other side. Under the weak blue phosphorus fire, I vaguely saw a dozen pairs of things with blood-red eyes on the other side of the river.
It's just that the red eyes are so dim that you can't even tell them without looking carefully.
I said quickly: "Boss! He is a ghost believer!"
While he was talking, more than thirty souls of the dead had already crossed over on rafts.
Before the raft could reach the shore, the dead souls disembarked one after another and waded ashore through the water.
The remaining people dragged the raft to the shore and said breathlessly: "Thank God! We finally got rid of those deadly things!"
"Brother of the Corpse Tribe, Gui Xiao has caused trouble for you!"
While talking, Bai Baibai blinked and looked at us carefully.
There was a very malicious look in his eyes.
I know that there are no so-called friends on the Curseless Road. As long as you are weak, ghosts can eat ghosts or zombies.
Of course, it is common for zombies to absorb the yin energy of the dead or the yang energy of living people.
Even exorcists sometimes capture the souls of the dead and bring them back to the afterlife to keep them for fun.
Anyway, that's how it is on Curseless Road, whoever has the bigger fist is the boss.
Zhang Sanfen sneered and stomped his feet slightly. But when he saw a series of mantras spreading in all directions, the surrounding Yin Qi immediately began to fluctuate rhythmically.
Gui Xiao's face immediately became respectful, and even his tone was a bit humble: "Brother Zhi! It's really great to meet you!"
"We ghouls are not divided into different families, we are all from the undead family. Seeing you here is like seeing my biological brother!"
"This time I go to the Great Abyss Pool, brother, I will rely on you!"
I looked at him strangely, wondering, have ghosts become so slick these days?
