Li Yan In the past few months, I have been thinking about various problems that need to be solved and encountered.
The biggest problem he faces now is of course to break the bloody death ban, then restore Divine Sense, and then repair his physical body and completely restore his cultivation level.
But if you really think about it in this order, Li Yan can only wait for death in the end, because he does not have any ability to restore the bloody death ban.
Instead, after reversing the order, his only opportunity appeared. "Higanbana" made his "Undying Underworld Phoenix" bloodline react.
That's because inside the flower, there is an alternation of critical point power between the Yang Realm and the underworld.
Then the growth range of these "Other Flowers" is very strange. They only grow on both sides of the "Minglun River", which shows that they are affected by the "Minglun River".
Therefore, the ultimate goal of Li Yan is locked on the "Minglun River". Judging from the results of the first mission's own exploration, "transformation to the other side" is the preferred target.
As for whether it is feasible or not, put it aside. Once there is a glimmer of hope that it is feasible, then Li Yan will need a lot of "flowers of the other side".
But Fa Nan didn't give him that much time at all, so Li Yan wondered whether the water in the "Minglun River" also contained the power of the Yang Realm and the underworld.
If there is, the river water is much more numerous than the "flowers on the other side", which may be the result I want.
However, the water of the "Netherworld River" also contains those critical point powers, and they should also be able to discover it.
Wouldn't it be better for them to just give up picking "Banana flowers" and go directly to the river water to refine Pill? But the other party had no intention of doing so.
Li Yan gave a possible explanation after thinking about it later.
There should be such power in the "Minglun River", but the critical point power in the river may be very overbearing and strong.
Those ghosts in the underworld only dare to touch the "Bana Flower" that has absorbed the life essence and neutralized the critical point of its power. Maybe even the Emperor of Hades does not dare to touch the river water?
If a monk is allowed to go over and drink water from the river, a monk will be sucked out of his lifespan, let alone being able to return with the river water.
At the same time, there are so many weird creatures in the "Netherworld River". People like Li Yan have lost their cultivation.
Basically, in the process of getting too close to the river, these people in the prison almost died.
And Li Yan wanted to go over and confirm whether there was the critical point power he guessed in the river?
If his guess is correct, then this "Minglun River" is too vast. He needs to restore the power of his physical body, and he may be able to succeed in just one time.
Li Yan What he lacks the most right now is time. He must regain his strength as much as possible before Fa Nan detects abnormalities in his body.
However, the various possibilities for the emergence of the "Minglun River" are nothing more than some judgments obtained by Li Yan through analysis, plus conjecture.
Maybe that's not the case at all. Even as he approached the river, there were countless weird monsters, or maybe they were so sensitive that he was attacked to death.
Maybe there really is a critical point of power in the river, but just as Li Yan thought, the power is too overbearing, so overbearing that Li Yan cannot bear it at all.
The moment he made contact, either his life span was exhausted, or his body was washed away and burst...
The following possibilities are the most likely results.
The journey of cultivating immortality is inherently dangerous, and Li Yan walked on the edge of death time and time again.
This time, he just repeated what he had done before, fighting for his life again. Even if he died, he could not stay in such a prison.
There wasn't much time left for him in a mission, and he had to consider the journey back later, so Li Yan flew as close to the "Ghost Thorn" as possible.
At the same time, he must always pay attention to the dangers around him. Once Li Yan is entangled by those weird monsters, even if Li Yan can escape, he will not have enough time this time.
He can only hope for the next time, but can he guarantee that he will not encounter those weird monsters on the next path?
"This time, try your best to reach the river. As long as there is some hope..."
Li Yan felt fierce in his heart, and he began to focus only on the front. Without Divine Sense, his perception had become too weak.
He even gave up the exploration on both sides, so that his forward speed could be increased again, but this was undoubtedly a gamble with his life every time he took a step forward.
With the speed he was running at now, he probably wouldn't be able to react once there was an attack from both sides.
"Safe, safe... safe..."
Li Yan kept thinking these two words in his heart. What he needed most right now was safety without any obstruction.
As time passed quickly, Li Yan, a short journey of about four miles, felt like it had gone through a long life, and it felt endless.
And under his expectation, there really was no accident, and he had arrived about half a mile away from the "Minglun River".
When he arrived here, Li Yan, who was flying by, suddenly stopped. He could already see the dark and green river water in his eyes.
But he had to stop, because right in front of him, the ever-stretching "Ghost Thorn" mountain had been getting shorter and shorter before, and suddenly disappeared completely here.
Li Yan began to walk forward cautiously, and at this time began to be cautious about everything around him again.
"These 'Ghost Thorns' may really have some restraint effect on the weird monsters in the river, whether they are walking from the other end to the place where they pick the 'Other Flowers'.
From that position to here again, at least I didn't encounter those weird things, but what about this half mile? "
Li Yan Thoughts were racing, and he felt that even the monks in the cell would know about the unexpected effects of "Ghost Thorn".
The "Ghost Thorn" may be the same as the "Higanbana". It may take a certain number of years before the disgust level of those weird monsters in the river will change.
Because when I first met the water ghost, there were some "ghost thorns" around it, but the thing was not too far away.
As for the "Ghost Thorn" mountain that I walked through, it obviously took too many years to form, and the years are naturally very long.
This may be the reason why I didn't encounter those weird ghosts along the way.
However, it is useless for the monks in the prison to know that the longer the "Ghost Thorn" grows, the tougher and sharper it becomes. It is difficult for the monks to walk on it for a long time.
Especially the closer you get to the "Netherworld River", the black spikes produced by the "Ghost Thorns" cannot be easily broken when Li Yan steps on them, it can only be said to sink them.
Li Yan stood behind a cluster of "ghost thorn trees" that were as tall as one person. There were only a few of them here. A few of them were tall "ghost thorn trees", but they already seemed to be standing alone.
The remaining "ghost thorns" have grown close to the ground. This cluster of "ghost thorns" obscured Li Yan's figure. He only revealed a little bit of sight and looked forward.
Li Yan You can see that after the edge of the "Ghost Thorn" mountain, a large area of "Higanbana" has appeared.
Judging from his current experience, it can be seen at just a glance that there are too many "flowers of the other side", even more than seven hundred years ago.
Li Yan also saw the dark green river water further away. The light in this space may have become darker due to the river water.
Those huge swaying flowers of "Bana Flower" are so dazzling red, like blurred lines of blood swinging in the dark night.
After people see it, they can't help but feel creepy.
Li Yan After observing for a while, among the flowers of the other side of the world, there are also "ghost thorns" in some places, but not only do they grow very sparsely, they are basically like a small cluster of weeds, very short.
"Fight!"
Li Yan After watching for a while, he didn't find any strange monster appearing in the river, so he decided to use the method he had judged not long ago.
He suddenly grasped the "Ghost Thorn" that was as tall as a person in front of him with both hands. He didn't care about the dense thorns on it. He clenched it tightly with both hands, and then raised his arms with force.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, this "ghost thorn tree" like a caltrop tree was pulled out by Li Yan.
And just when Li Yan was about to hold this object and step out of the edge of the "Ghost Thorn" mountain, his body suddenly stopped abruptly.
The "Ghost Thorn" in his hand immediately blocked him in front of him, because with this muffled sound, some extremely illusory shadows suddenly appeared in the darkness ahead.
Fortunately, Li Yan reacted very quickly, otherwise he might have rushed in there directly.
"The sound alarmed those weird things in the river..."
Li Yan made a quick judgment in his mind. His body remained motionless, looking at the shadows in the darkness through the gaps between the branches of the "Ghost Thorn".
After just a few careful inspections, he felt a chill in his heart. There was a shadow that looked like a head, floating quietly among the "Plants of the Other Side", with its mouth wide open and a green-bearded zombie face;
There are also water ghosts that I have encountered before; there are also centipede-like things with densely covered legs all over the body;
There are also disemboweled corpses; there are also things that are jumping around with their hands dragging their drooping eyeballs;
On the contrary, those ghosts in white with disheveled hair made Li Yan think that they were the most normal monsters here. At least he would often see similar ghosts in the cell.
These things were nowhere to be seen before, but they appeared among the "flowers from the other side" in just an instant, completely blocking Li Yan's way forward.
Li Yan couldn't help but secretly complain. He didn't even see how these things came out. He was probably attracted by the movement he just made.
He could only hide behind this "Ghost Thorn" and keep his body motionless.
Li Yan kept looking around him, fearing that these strange things would suddenly appear beside or behind him, without him knowing anything about it...
But what reassured him was that those strange things were only moving among the "Plant Flowers" and did not enter this mountain of "Ghost Thorns".
This made Li Yan feel more and more that his judgment on "Ghost Thorn" might be correct.
But this is not a problem at all. Time is passing by, and Li Yan is getting more and more anxious. He feels that he may fail this time.
He can fight with all his strength, but facing so many weird monsters and losing his cultivation, he will probably die in vain, which will have no effect at all!
Li Yan felt that his heartbeat was constantly accelerating. He could even hear the "bang bang bang" heartbeat, and his palms began to sweat.
However, he kept his posture like this, and the "Ghost Thorn" in his hand remained motionless.
Every breath makes Li Yan so miserable that he feels that his life is passing by...
He can move laterally, away from this section of the river bank, but Li Yan is not sure whether his movement will have any unpredictable consequences in the face of so many weird ghosts!
Just when Li Yan was thinking anxiously, he couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly, and then looked intently again. The erratic shadows in front of him suddenly disappeared.
Li Yan's heart moved, but he still did not move his body. At this time, Li Yan began to become more and more cautious.
After about a hundred breaths passed, a "Ghost Thorn" slowly walked down the edge of the "Ghost Thorn" mountain at an extremely slow speed and moved towards the "Butterfly Flower" bush...
Li Yan squatted in a half-crouch position, carefully avoiding all obstacles and trying not to touch any "Plant of the Other Side".
This black "Ghost Thorn" is like a small "tree" swaying slightly in the dark night!
Li Yan kept talking about the gods from all sides in his heart. He hoped that those weird monsters in the river would never have intelligence.
Otherwise, such a huge "ghost thorn" appeared on the shore. Compared with the short and sparse "ghost thorns" around it, it would be a bit conspicuous.
Regarding these weird ghosts in the river, Bu Luo also said that these weird things have no intelligence and should just rely on instinct every time they come out.
As for why they want to kill all ghosts and creatures that are not in the "Netherworld River", it may be to determine whether the other party has the aura of the water in the "Netherworld River".
Everything Bu Luo said was just what he heard from hearsay...
Li Yan Of course, I don't know whether this news is true or not, and I don't know if the "Ghost Thorn" in my hand can really make the other party completely avoid it and not want to get close.
Li Yan looked at the dark green river ahead through the gap between "Ghost Thorns", getting closer...
Suddenly, Li Yan once again felt as if someone had cast a immobilization spell on him. He squatted there, motionless, and his heart almost jumped out!
Just as he was moving slowly, looking behind him and on both sides, and turning his head to look forward, he saw a pair of eyes two feet away from him through the gap in the "Ghost Thorn" in his hand.
This caused Li Yan to immediately have large sweat stains on his back. His eyes were glowing with deathly gray as he stared at the "Ghost Thorn" tree that suddenly stopped moving.
It was a fat woman dressed in red, her head turned back at a weird angle, her back and face facing Li Yan.
Li Yan felt that the "fatness" on her body was the result of being swollen by river water. The woman's black hair was hanging down, and there were only two black holes left in her nostrils.
But in that black hole, there were two green snake-like things. They poked their heads out for a while, and then quickly retracted. They looked extremely gloomy...
The woman in red's gray eyes stared straight at the "Ghost Thorn". After a while, she suddenly floated in front of her.
The strangely twisted head on the back was stuck to the "Ghost Thorn" tree almost instantly.
Then, two green snake-head-like things suddenly poked out of the two black hole nostrils, and began to shake their heads in an attempt to enter the "Ghost Thorn" bush.
But every time he only enters a little bit, he quickly shrinks back, making a strange "sizzling" sound at the same time...
Li Yan squatted on the ground. Although his back was already wet with sweat, he restrained himself from moving.
He knew that there were too many weird monsters that could appear at any time in the darkness around him. As long as he showed the slightest flaw, he would be surrounded in an instant.
Li Yan's expression was blank. He was holding his breath and concentrating. At the same time, the muscles in his legs were tense. As long as he found something bad, he would shoot it out.
Although he didn't know whether he was retreating faster or the strange monster suddenly appeared from the darkness, this was his only way out.
"Tsk!"
Li Yan felt his eyes blurred, and the woman in red suddenly disappeared. Li Yan was shocked and immediately turned around to look around.
