The underworld is no better than Wuyahai, where ghost cultivators are everywhere.
Although Lin Fan practices "Mysterious Ghost Taoism", the smell of fresh flesh and blood on his body is very obvious.
A high-level ghost cultivator can restrain the desires in his heart and not use him as blood food.
He is a ghost cultivator in the earthly realm, but from time to time he wants to kill him to extract his blood essence and soul.
It can be said that the current Lin Fan is simply a piece of cake in the underworld.
It would be too risky for him to go to the River Styx to pick ghost flowers.
But Lin Fan knew very well that this was probably his only chance to collect the Nether Spirit Flower.
If he missed this opportunity, it would probably be even more difficult for him to obtain the Nether Spirit Flower in the Ghost Realm on his own.
"It's really hard to guess what Lord Ghost King is thinking. He seems to be helping me, but I'm afraid there's another reason behind it. But, I have no choice now!" Lin Fan thought secretly.
At this moment, Gui Li did not force Lin Fan to make an immediate decision.
He sat quietly on the throne, his expression as usual.
After waiting for a full cup of tea, Lin Fan finally spoke: "Senior Ghost King, I originally asked you for this matter. I picked the Nether Spirit Flowers myself, so there is nothing wrong with it. However, I have nothing to do with what happened in the Styx River.
If you don’t know anything, please tell me something.”
Gui Li smiled slightly, very satisfied with Lin Fan's attitude of not making an immediate decision.
"Fellow Daoist Lin is young, but he is so safe in his affairs. No wonder he dares to seek skin from the golden dragon and tiger. However, if you want to collect the Nether Spirit Flower, you must withstand the erosion of the soul by the water of the Styx. If you cannot do this, I am afraid that I
The king sent you to the River Styx at the junction of the Yinsi ghost world and the Shura ghost world, and you were unable to successfully collect the Nether Spirit Flower!" Gui Li explained.
Lin Fan couldn't help but his expression changed slightly.
When he came to the ghost world of the underworld, he saw the terror of the River Styx.
The river inside is extremely dark and bottomless.
Even when the Dingbian ghost army commanded by the Yinsi Ghost King entered the River Styx, they screamed in pain.
If he were allowed to enter the bottom of the River Styx to pick ghost flowers, the difficulty would increase a lot out of thin air.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, I know that you are worried that the water of the Styx will corrode your soul, right? In fact, the water of the Styx is bitingly cold. Although it can corrode the soul, it can also strengthen it."
"Now, there are still three full months before the Nether Spirit Flower blooms. Why don't you follow the soldiers of the Dingbian Army and enter the River Styx for training."
"Three months is a short period of time, but it should still allow your soul to adapt to the erosion of the water of the Styx!"
Seeing Lin Fan's expression of embarrassment, Gui Li immediately explained with a smile.
His words removed the knot in Lin Fan's heart.
"Thank you, Lord Ghost King, for clearing up the confusion. If that's the case, I will enter the Styx River with the Dingbian Army for training starting tomorrow." Lin Fan said happily.
"good!"
Gui Li agreed and looked at Luo Li.
Seeing Luo Li nodding, he said: "Fellow Daoist Lin, we have already made it clear to you what needs to be explained. After I help you collect the Nether Spirit Flower, there will no longer be anything between you and Xiaoyan. You
Do you understand?"
"Senior, don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who is messing around. Since I promised my senior and the princess, I won't go back on my word!" Lin Fan said quickly.
Gui Li and Luo Li smiled with satisfaction.
His attitude towards Lin Fan also became more easy-going.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, these days, you go to the Dingbian Army for training every day. Although your realm is not weak, you will inevitably be remembered by people in the ghost world. Let the hell dog protect your safety." Luo Li said with a smile.
Although Lin Fan knew that this was Gui Li and Luo Li's way of spying on him, he did not dare to refuse.
"Thank you for taking care of me, Princess. I am very grateful to you." Lin Fan said with a smile.
"Well, Fellow Daoist Lin has worked hard. Let's go down and rest for now."
Luo Li waved her hand, signaling Lin Fan to leave.
When he walked out of the living room, he found Mu Yan and the hell dog waiting outside the living room.
Seeing Lin Fan come out, a hint of complexity suddenly flashed across Mu Yan's beautiful eyes.
"host……"
"Yan'er, I told you that there is no master-servant relationship between you and me. Now, I am very happy that you can reunite with your family. Please stay with the ghost king and princess, and let the hell dog Taoist friend send them to you.
Just go and rest!”
Before Mu Yan could finish her words, Lin Fan quickly explained.
Mu Yan knew that with her parents here, it was naturally inconvenient for Lin Fan to say certain things to her.
After a moment of silence, Mu Yan nodded with red eyes.
"Well, you go and have a rest. I will come find you when I see my father and queen!"
Lin Fan nodded and immediately left with the Hell Dog.
Although the palace where Luo Li lives is not large, it covers an area of dozens of acres.
Along the way, pure ghost energy lingered in the void. Moonstones of various colors, like beautiful jade, were spread on the ground. The entire palace was illuminated beautifully, just like daylight.
In addition, there are many rare elixirs unique to the underworld planted in the palace. Every plant is a priceless treasure when taken outside.
But here, they are regarded as ornamental plants and planted randomly on the roadside.
"As expected of the palace where the princess lives, it is really rich and majestic!" Lin Fan said with emotion.
The hell dog leading the way immediately turned around and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Lin, this is your first time in the underworld and the ghost world. When you see these things, you will naturally feel worried. However, as I am used to seeing these, I think they are normal. However,
I really admire the steadfastness of my Taoist friend."
At the end of the sentence, the hell dog actually smiled strangely at Lin Fan.
Although he did not say it explicitly, Lin Fan knew that the Hell Dog was naturally talking about his training in the River Styx with the Dingbian Army.
But Lin Fan also knows very well that you, the hell dog, are Luo Li's confidant.
Although the other party said something like this casually, if I continued to ask, I'm afraid he wouldn't say anything and immediately smiled lightly, without any intention of communicating with the other party in depth.
It was only when the two of them arrived at a side courtyard of the palace that the hell dog stopped.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, the princess asked me to settle you here. Just go in by yourself and everything will be just like your own home. In addition, if you need anything from fellow daoist, just ask!" the hell dog said politely.
Lin Fan smiled slightly and looked at the hell dog with strange eyes.
"Fellow Taoist, are you telling the truth?"
"Haha, you have a close relationship with the princess' beloved daughter, how dare I lie to you?"
"If that's the case, I want the Nether Spirit Flower, and I'd like to ask my Taoist friend to pick it back for me."
"Here... Fellow Daoist Lin, please rest early. I still have a furnace of elixirs that I haven't finished yet. I'll say goodbye!"
After the hell dog finished speaking, it immediately turned into an afterimage and quickly disappeared in front of Lin Fan.
Lin Fan looked at the direction where the Hell Dog disappeared and smiled strangely, then walked into the small courtyard.
He had no thoughts about everything in the small courtyard at the moment.
He found a secret room at random, checked it carefully, and arranged several anti-peeping formations. Then he sat quietly on a futon and silently recalled what had happened these days.
There was nothing to say for a while, just waiting for the silence of the night.
As Lin Fan gradually entered a state of cultivation, a soft voice came from Lin Fan's ear.
"Master, wake up quickly, I have something for you."
The person who spoke was none other than Mu Yan.
Lin Fan opened his eyes and quickly glanced at the secret room.
After discovering that Mu Yan was not in the secret room, she immediately smiled awkwardly.
With a thought, Mu Yan was released from Niwan Palace.
"Yan'er, you have regained your freedom. Don't be so naughty in the future." Lin Fan said with a smile.
But Mu Yan pouted, looking at Lin Fan with resentment and said: "Master, my father and mother are watching closely. Even if I want to see you alone, they won't allow me. I can only enter your mud ball."
In the palace, I came to find you. However, I brought you a good thing this time."
As she spoke, Mu Yan smiled happily.
With a flip of his palm, a black light instantly appeared in front of the two of them.
At the same time, a carriage that was about ten feet in size, covered in black and engraved with nine black dragons, suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.
Lin Fan glanced at it and was immediately surprised.
