The River Styx is actually another name for the underground water system. This kind of river never sees the light of day all year round and only flows in the dark underground world. Therefore, it has the most yin and cool nature.
In fact, this kind of river should not flow on the surface of the earth, because once it flows into the surface, the Yin Qi will evaporate and it will eventually become an ordinary river, which is not worthy of being called the River Styx.
However, the advent of the Great Dark Age reversed the yin and yang of the world, and the natural environment on the far north ice sheet was very similar to the underground world. Even though the Styx River rushed out of the underground, the yin energy still gathered and never dispersed, resulting in this subzero condition.
It’s a wonder that it never freezes even at more than ten degrees Celsius.
I stood on the edge of the River Styx, and I felt the white air coming from the river layer after layer. The white air was made of Yin energy, and when it blew on people's bodies, even their bones felt stiff.
The River Styx flows continuously, and standing on the river bank, it seems that you can still see the souls of the dead in the water constantly wailing and crying.
I shook my head, threw all these scenes out of my mind, and shouted in a deep voice: "Where is the King of Styx! Zhang Wuxin from Yin Yang Shop is visiting!"
The sound came loudly and spread along the river to both sides. I don't know if it was inspired by the sound, but the waves in the Styx River suddenly rose, and white waves swept in one after another.
In the waves, countless water ghosts came one after another, each with their tongues sticking out, their faces ferocious, and their teeth and claws showing. Some guys with clearer minds saw me standing on the shore and screamed out: "Living people! Living people!"
Drag him into the river quickly!"
Aroused by the Yang Qi in my body, the water ghosts rode the waves and rushed towards the shore. Suddenly, the turbid waves surged into the sky, and the extremely cold river water flew up to a height of more than ten meters.
The water of the Styx is extremely yin in nature. Once it is rolled up on a person, it can take away all the yang energy in a living person. Facing the huge waves more than ten meters high, if it were an ordinary exorcist, he would have turned pale with fear.
Pull back.
But I stood tall and straight on the shore like a javelin. Facing the huge waves of the Styx in front of me, I slowly raised the black and white sword of life and death.
On the sword body, the black and white aura continued to surge. Although I did not actually draw the sword, the sword power was not released. The sword aura that escaped spread out in all directions, cutting into pieces the huge waves.
Some unruly water ghosts were affected by the sword energy and screamed strangely. In an instant, their souls flew away and were swallowed by the River Styx. The remaining water ghosts screamed strangely and fled in all directions without hesitation.
Without the water ghost to control the waves, the water of the Styx receded quickly, then returned to its original state in an instant and continued to flow forward quietly.
It's just that there were countless water ghosts hiding in the water, pointing at me and whispering, but in the end they never had the guts to devour a living person.
I waited for a moment and said impatiently: "Six thousand years ago, the Son of Heaven crossed the River Styx and formed a good relationship with the King of the River Styx. Why do you avoid him now?"
"Or is it that the majestic Lord of the Styx is actually afraid of the Ancestor of Corpses and does not dare to receive me, a living person from Middle Earth?"
As soon as he finished speaking, white mist was seen on the river, and soon a mist rose. In the mist, a group of ghosts in black robes stepped on the river. Wherever they went, the waves stopped, and water ghosts appeared in the river.
retreat.
I straightened my waist slightly and looked forward with squinted eyes. I saw the black-robed ghosts with solemn expressions, each holding a water-proof magic weapon in their hands.
The leader wore a golden crown, and his face was exquisite, just like a living person. The only thing that made people feel uncomfortable was that his face was too white, as if it were covered with white plaster powder.
The black-robed ghosts came on the waves and did not stop until they reached the riverside. The leader of the white-faced ghosts bowed slightly to me and said: "Mr. Tianzi is here. The waters of my Styx River are really full of water.
Shine."
I hung the black and white sword of life and death on my waist again and said with a smile: "Easy to say, easy to say. How is the Lord of the Styx?"
The white-faced ghost bent down and bowed again: "Thank you, Master Tianzi, for your concern. My king is fine. It's just that he has important matters now and cannot greet him in person. I hope Master Tianzi will be considerate."
I saw that the white-faced ghost was talking unusually, and his tone was full of politeness, and I couldn't help but calm down the anger in my heart. At that moment, I said calmly: "Mr. Zhang came to visit rashly, it's fine that the Lord of the Styx doesn't blame Mr. Zhang."
The white-faced ghost bowed slightly and said, "Please!"
He turned sideways, and the black-robed ghosts around him stepped aside from both sides. In the Styx River, the water flow surged, forming stairs one after another.
I sneered in my heart. No living person can enter the River Styx. This is something that every exorcist should keep in mind. Because the River Styx can isolate Yang Qi and gather Yin Qi. Once a living person enters, it will not take a moment or three to remove the Yang Qi from his body.
If they all dissipate, one life is considered to be at stake here.
The Lord of Styx knew this, but he still politely invited me into the Styx Mansion, obviously hoping that I would retreat in spite of the difficulties.
But this time I came to see the Lord of the River Styx for something else. Not to mention my next trip to the River Styx, even if I walked through the eighteenth level of hell, I would never frown!
Faced with Bai Lian Yinhun's malicious gaze, I snorted softly. The fire and water evil-proof clothes had quietly covered my whole body, and even a faint transparent film appeared on my face. If I didn't look carefully, I wouldn't even notice.
can not tell.
This piece of clothing that Tianzi left for me can isolate Yin and Yang, and is not afraid of water and fire. It's just a river of Styx, but it really can't do anything to me.
When the ghosts in black robes saw me stepping into the water, their expressions remained indifferent, as if nothing had happened. They could even vaguely detect the Yang Qi flowing in my body.
The ghosts who were originally waiting to see my joke suddenly looked at me with admiration and were shocked.
The attitude of the white-faced ghost immediately became much more respectful. Just kidding, there are only a few people who entered the River Styx as a living person but behaved as if nothing happened. In thousands of years, there are only a few of them, and each one of them is a big shot who can shake the world with his stamp of feet.
.
He took a few steps forward, and while leading the way, he said respectfully: "Mr. Zhang's extraordinary methods are beyond our imagination. Sir, please come this way!"
There are turbulent undercurrents under the Styx River, and there are huge swirling whirlpools and water ghosts everywhere. These water ghosts are all unjust dead who died in the Styx River, because the three souls and seven souls were bound by the Styx River and could only live all day long.
Stay here and suffer.
According to the information I know, the water ghosts of the Styx are tortured in the water for varying lengths of time, ranging from a few years to decades to a long period of time. They will suffer in the Styx for almost their whole lives and will never be able to recover.
In the Styx, these water ghosts are extremely vicious, just like hyenas on the prairie, they pounce on people when they see them. Because only by snatching the body of a living person can it be possible to escape the permanent erosion of three souls and seven souls by the Styx in every life.
In the Styx, only the Lord of the Styx, who controls the entire underground water system, can make the water ghosts feel a little awe. Because the Lord of the Styx controls the underground water veins, a single word can determine the life or death of the water ghosts.
This time I came to the River Styx just to meet the legendary Lord of the River Styx.
Speaking of which, the Lord of the Styx has a very transcendent status in the circle. In terms of fighting alone, he is no match for the Ancestor of the Corpse, and in terms of the ghosts under his command, he is far inferior to the many generals that Ten Thousand Demons have encircled.
But just because he controls the underground water veins and was born in the River Styx, all the ghosts who died due to water are under his control.
In the huge underground water veins, even the Ancestor of the Corpse cannot compare to the Lord of the Styx.
Of course, there are advantages and disadvantages. It is precisely because of his strength in the River Styx that he will never be able to leave the River Styx.
This is also the main reason why the ancestors of corpses look at him differently.
Even though the Ancestor of Corpses claims to control all areas north of the line of defense, his power can never touch the Styx water system. On the far north ice sheet, wherever the Styx flows, it is the territory of the Lord of the Styx.
In the River Styx, even if I give my name, the evil spirits from the Ten Thousand Demons Pit would not dare to do anything to me. Taking action in the River Styx is a provocation to the Lord of the River Styx!
But he said that the white-faced ghost walked all the way, and wherever he went, the water was calm and unrippled. While scolding the Styx water ghosts who were peeping outside, he explained to me with a smile on his face: "Mr. Zhang, in the Styx River, there are undercurrents.
There are whirlpools and whirlpools everywhere, and even if there are some calm places occasionally, they are all occupied by greedy water ghosts."
"Only the waterway designated by the king is the safest place to walk, and it is also a place where water ghosts dare not approach."
I squinted my eyes and looked left and right, and saw sparkling waves on the outside of the waterway, water ghosts scurrying around, and occasionally whirlpools visible to the naked eye, rolling up the ice on the river, crushing it into pieces in an instant, and then rising up.
A milky white mist arose.
It seems that in the Styx River, as the white-faced ghost said, only the waterway opened by the Lord of the Styx is safe. The rest of the places are either undercurrents and whirlpools, or are occupied by greedy water ghosts.
As I walked along, I remembered everything I saw with my eyes and what I felt in my body. But I heard the white-faced ghost laugh and say: "Mr. Zhang, you don't have to remember the waterways of the Styx. These waterways will happen every other night."
Changes. It’s useless even if you write them down. If you wander around, you might really get lost in the River Styx.”
I was doubtful in my heart. If the River Styx was really so powerful, it would have been impossible for the Son of Heaven to leave here unharmed six thousand years ago.
The so-called changes in the waterway are most likely self-changes based on certain rules. As long as I can see through the trick, even entering the Styx Mansion may not be able to trap me.
However, I calculated and memorized secretly along the way, but time passed very quickly. After more than ten minutes, the white-faced ghost took me into a whirlpool.
I felt the swirling water swirling around me, making me dizzy. When I stabilized my body, I realized that the white-faced ghost had jumped out of the water with me.
The moment I came out of the whirlpool, I felt a bone-chilling chill all over my body. Even through the fire and water evil-proof clothes, I could detect the chilling Yin energy.
Looking around, I saw the water was clear and looming. Wherever I looked, a magnificent palace in the water suddenly occupied my entire field of vision.
This is the residence of the Lord of the Styx, and it is also the key to suppressing the underground water veins.
From a visual inspection, this palace complex has magnificent buildings and covers an extremely large area. With my eyesight, I can't even see the edge of the palace at a glance.
Outside the palace, ghosts in black robes shuttled back and forth, and there were also pale-faced zombies patrolling back and forth. In the water, green light loomed, and black energy occasionally stirred, making the palace appear strange and strange, as if in a fantasyland.
