The Eye of Illusion can see the essence. It seems that this torch is the essence of this strange black wooden ship. However, although Chen Hao saw it, he didn't understand what it meant.
When the two of them descended to a height of several meters away from the black wooden boat, Chen Hao suddenly stopped when he was still hesitating whether to get on the boat.
Chen Hao and Princess Eighty-Six felt that an invisible force prevented them from continuing to land.
It seemed to be coming from the black wooden boat.
While the two were in astonishment, the black wooden boat sent out another invisible thought.
This thought was neither words nor information, but the two of them understood it instantly.
Only by taking this boat can you cross the Ghost Lake and reach the real Dark Valley, but you need a ticket to get on the boat.
Chen Hao and Princess Eighty-Six looked at each other.
"What's the ticket?"
Princess Eighty-six asked.
The black wooden boat said nothing and did not convey any more thoughts. It seemed that he did not understand the words of the Eighty-sixth Princess.
Princess Eighty-Six asked again with her spiritual consciousness, but the black wooden boat still didn't respond.
"What the hell?"
The Eighty-sixth Princess was angry and would curse loudly.
Chen Hao stopped her and then tried to take out the spirit stone.
Spirit stones are the universal currency of cultivation. In addition to monks, many races also use them. They are even useful for many demons. They are extremely versatile. Maybe they can be used as ship tickets?
The black wooden boat showed no response.
Chen Hao took out cultivation materials, elixirs, magic weapons... The black wooden boat still didn't respond.
The Eighty-sixth Princess complained: "This won't work, that won't work either, what kind of ticket do you want?
Can you explain it directly?"
The black wooden boat suddenly started moving again, as if it was impatient to wait and was ready to leave.
Chen Hao and Princess Eighty-Six immediately felt the suction of the Ghost Lake again.
Princess Eighty-Six immediately panicked: "Hey, I was just joking, Brother Muchuan, don't leave!"
The black wooden boat remained indifferent and slowly passed under the two men.
As it left, Chen Hao and Princess Eighty-Six felt the suction of the ghost lake rise rapidly.
"I was just joking, there's no need to be so angry."
The eighty-sixth princess said frantically.
"The so-called ship ticket must be an extraordinary item and cannot be an ordinary thing, but it is not something like cultivation, so what should it be?"
Chen Hao frowned and pondered, looking at the burning torch on the bow of the black wooden boat, he suddenly remembered the strange appearance of the torch that he had just seen with his vain eyes, and his heart couldn't help but move.
He put all the cultivation items back and then took out something.
Immediately, the black wooden boat stopped, and then slowly returned to directly below the two people.
"Is this a boat ticket?"
Princess Eighty-Six's eyes suddenly widened.
What Chen Hao was holding was a dream-like bead the size of a pigeon egg with a series of transparent stripes.
This bead is the inner elixir obtained by killing the old chess player before.
"should be."
Seeing this, Chen Hao became convinced and said: "The ghost lake is a ghost. This black wooden boat can control the ghost lake, so it is probably a ghost. What a ghost is interested in, naturally only the other ghosts exist."
After the words fell, the black wooden boat conveyed another thought: please use the ticket to get on the boat, but only one person can get on the boat with a ticket.
The expressions of Chen Hao and Princess Eighty-Six changed.
If you can only fall in love with one person, then the other person will fall into the ghost lake and be swallowed by the ghost lake.
Chen Hao took out the inner elixirs of other demons and ghosts.
When he was in the alliance, because of the huge tide of demons, the most important thing for the alliance monks was the inner elixir of various demons and monsters. After Chen Hao went on the road, he had a lot of these things.
But there was no response to these inner elixirs and black wooden boats.
It seems that except for the inner elixir of the old chess player, it is not interested in anything.
Princess Eighty-Six looked very pale and said in a trembling voice: "Xiao Haozi, you can get on the boat and don't worry about me."
Chen Hao was shocked: "Why?"
The Eighty-sixth Princess said: "You are very capable. If you get on the ship and go to the Dark Valley, you can still survive. But I am not good. Even if you get on the ship, you will just linger and you will definitely die. It is better for you to live than for us to die together."
She said, smiling self-deprecatingly, wanting to express her open-mindedness that was not afraid of death, but she couldn't help but shed tears.
"Your Highness, why did you do this to me?"
Chen Hao was silent for a long time before asking.
Princess Eighty-Six did not hesitate: "Because you are good to me."
Chen Haodao: "Am I good to you?"
Princess Eighty-Six said: "You are so much more capable than me, but you don't treat me coldly or abandon me just because I have nothing and can't give you anything. Instead, you stay and try your best to help me."
Me, assist me, let me shine in front of my father and get all kinds of benefits. Even if I am in danger, you will risk your life to save me and never give up on me.
I...in my whole life, I have never met anyone as kind to me as you.
Although you keep saying that I saved you and you came to me to repay your kindness, you have given me so much and the kindness has been repaid long ago, but you never leave, saying that you must assist me in ascending to the throne and dedicate yourself to me.
Everything, even if I give my life, I should do it. I am not a grass or tree, how can I not be moved, Xiao Haozi, in fact, I know what I am like, I am just a very mediocre person with many shortcomings, and I am not worthy of you treating me like this...
..." When she said this, she suddenly choked up, covered her face and cried bitterly, unable to speak any more.
Chen Hao was silent.
"Your Highness, I still say the same thing, I will not give up on you."
After a while, Chen Hao said, and suddenly used his shadow ability to disappear into the shadow of the Eighty-sixth Princess.
Then he controlled the Eighty-sixth Princess with his mind: "Now we are alone, let's get on the boat."
The Eighty-sixth Princess didn't expect him to do this, and couldn't help but be stunned: "Is this okay?"
Chen Hao said: "Whether it works or not, you will know if you try it."
With that said, Chen Hao controlled the eighty-six princesses to land on the black wooden boat.
The black wooden boat didn't react at all.
Chen Hao walked to the bow of the ship and threw the inner elixir of the old chess player into the torch.
The inner elixir fell into the flames, immediately melted and disappeared.
The flame remained motionless, as if nothing had happened.
But the Eye of Illusion saw the black flames suddenly rising up with a roar, and the inner elixir of Lao Gao and the old chess-playing ghost did not disappear, but turned into a faint ghost, burning blazingly in the flames.
After doing all this, the black wooden boat started slowly and headed in a certain direction.
"This actually works."
Princess Eighty-Six was surprised in her mind, "We fooled it in front of it, and it actually recognized it."
Chen Haodao: "The black wooden ship is just a ghost. It does not have our wisdom and only follows its own rules. No matter what we do, as long as we do not violate its rules, it has nothing to do with it."
The Eighty-sixth Princess nodded: "Xiao Haozi, I just..." Chen Hao interrupted her and said: "Your Highness, you will always be my master, and I will always be your subordinate. This is an insurmountable rule.
From now on, you must behave like the Lord and you must not say those words just now."
