253 The Underworld
Mmm~mm...! Mmm. Wow!
Cough~!
Gan Jue emerged from the water, coughing and spitting out the inhaled water, panting heavily.He turned his head to look, and immediately saw not far away, Gu Lan was supporting a raft, looking at him with a smile that was entertaining, and Su Jiuer was also standing at the front of the raft with his hands behind his back.
"hey-hey."
Seeing Gan Jue appearing in a panic, Gu Lan laughed and waved to him, motioning him to swim over quickly.Su Jiu'er didn't speak, she still had an expressionless face, but she stretched out her hand towards Gan Jue, the light blue soul power shone, and Gan Jue felt a force pulling her to fly over.
Controlling her figure in the air, Gan Jue landed steadily on the raft, and as soon as she stood up, Su Jiuer grabbed her arm.The light blue soul power poured into Gan Jue's body, quickly evaporating the water stains on his body, and in just a dozen seconds, Gan Jue regained his dryness.
"The water of the Styx River is harmful to the body, remember to avoid touching it in the future. Uncle Gu, let's go, let's go back to the city."
After saying something lightly, Su Jiu'er turned around and stood on the bow of the boat again with her hands behind her back.
"Okay~!"
Excitedly, Gu Lan took out a bamboo pole from the storage soul tool and began to propel the raft.As for Gan Jue, he finally had time to look at where he was now.
They are now on top of a huge river, the water of the river is light green, and the surface of the river is full of emerald green mist, so that everything he sees is green light.As for this river, Gan Jue roughly estimated that it is also several hundred meters wide, and its length goes straight to the sky, which Haohao cannot estimate.The sky here is black, and there are no stars to be seen. On both sides of the river, there are strange black stones of various shapes, showing their teeth and claws.
When Gan Jue passed through the wormhole, he was fainted by the force of the distorted space.When he became conscious, he was in this long river, so there was the scene where the water just started to emerge.
"Boy Jue, since you have already entered the underworld, I also need to tell you about some things in this world, so that you won't run around and suffer what you shouldn't have."
Seeing Gan Jue looking at the long river glowing with green light in surprise, Gu Lan said with a smile.
"First of all, this world is called the underworld. It is no longer in the same space as your Douluo Continent. Only through wormholes can you travel between the two realms. However, this world is much smaller than the world of Douluo Continent. It may be a subsidiary space of Douluo Continent. We, the Dead Soul City family, are the original residents of this world. They have lived here for generations and enshrined the God of Death.
The river you see now is called the Styx River, and it is a river that transfers souls. Its source cannot be traced back. We only know that the souls that died in the Douluo Continent may appear in this Styx River, follow the Styx River, and finally merge into the Sea of Styx, entering the final destination of the soul.The Styx River water is non-toxic and can nourish the soul, but it is not suitable for living people to touch it too much. It will loosen the connection between the soul and the body of the living person. If it is exposed for a long time, the soul may eventually leave the body and die. "
Gan Jue quietly listened to Gu Lan's narration, slowly widened his eyes, and murmured incredulously:
"This is... Huangquan? This is the underworld?!"
"Yellow Spring, Hell? What is that?"
Hearing Gan Jue's murmur, Gu Lan asked with some doubts.
"Well, it's a saying that was circulated in our village when I was young. According to legend, after a person dies, his soul will be taken to the underworld by ghost messengers to be judged by King Yama. If there is no crime in life, he will be reincarnated in a good family in the next life. If he has committed serious crimes in life, he will be thrown into hell and tortured. After the sins are redeemed, Fang can be reincarnated."
"Uh, the legend in your village is a bit interesting. However, there is no hell in this underworld to torture souls, there is no King Yama who judges souls, and there is no ghost messenger who brings souls into the underworld. All the souls in the Styx appear randomly, and we practice in the city of dead souls."
As Gulan spoke, he reached out his hand to dig around his chest, and then took out a bone-white exquisite skull ring, which he put on his hand casually.
"Boy Jue, seven years ago, my soul power level was not even as high as that of the dean of your Shrek Academy, but now, he is still a soul sage, but I am already a Contra. Also, our city owner is 49 years old this year, but she has already become a Title Douluo 15 years ago, ten years earlier than Tang Hao, who was the first to become a Title Douluo in your mainland. Jue boy, do you know why the soul power of our Death Soul City clan has risen so fast?"
"why."
Gan Jue asked in a daze, but in the bottom of her heart, she already had some guesses.The reason why evil soul masters are called evil soul masters is because they will kill other innocent lives.And the reason why some people become evil soul masters is not because evil soul masters can quickly improve their strength through various other cruel methods, so he is already prepared for Gu Lan's next words.
"Because the exercises of our Dead Soul City clan have a special effect. It can refine the soul into soul power and then incorporate it into our body. The soul power obtained through this method can directly improve our strength without any side effects. It is the same as the soul power cultivated by ourselves."
As Gulan spoke, he stroked the bone-white skull ring in his hand with some exclamation.
"I know that in your eyes, this kind of method is the method of evil soul masters, and we don't deny it. But in fact, hundreds of years ago, we did not appear in the Douluo Continent, and the refined souls were all salvaged from the Styx River. Because at that time, the Styx River had a lot of souls, enough for our Dead Soul City to use.
It's just that in the past few hundred years, as the friction between the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire has decreased, peaceful development has begun, and there has been no war. However, under the suppression of the Spirit Hall, there have been fewer and fewer evil soul masters, and the killing of civilians by soul masters has also become less and less common.Gradually, the souls of Styx became scarce, and there were no longer enough souls for our Dead Soul City.
And without the soul power from refining the soul, our skills in Dead Soul City will be even slower than the most common skills in your Douluo Continent.So in the past few hundred years, our Dead Soul City began to decline slowly, and the strength of the soul masters became weaker and weaker. In the end, only our previous old city lord reached the strength of the Titled Douluo, and even the powerful soul servants in the Styx Secret Realm could not be cleaned up.And after the old city lord passed away, our current city lord thought that our family could no longer decline like this, so he began to seek change and came to your Douluo Continent.But the castellan is kind by nature"
"Enough Uncle Gu, he already knows enough!"
Just when Gulan was about to talk about Su Jiuer, Su Jiuer suddenly scolded him and interrupted him. Obviously, he didn't want him to continue talking.
Gu Lan looked at Su Jiu'er, hesitated to speak, and finally sighed after several times, stopped talking, and rowed the bamboo raft earnestly.Seeing this, Gan Jue didn't know what to say, so he stood quietly on the bamboo raft, thinking about what Gulan told him just now.
What Gu Lan didn't finish was probably that the Lord of the Dead Soul City didn't want to see the City of Dead Souls decline like this, so he resolutely took the people of the City of Dead Souls out of the underworld, and went to the Douluo Continent to engage in the business of evil soul masters, using methods of mutilating innocent people and plundering their souls to continue to improve their strength.Speaking of it this way, this Su Jiuer is really a big devil through and through.
Thinking of this, Gan Jue couldn't help raising his head to look at Su Jiu'er in front of him.It stands to reason that Gan Jue should hate her, because if this is the case, the original owner of Gan Jue's body, all the people in the village, died under the hands of this Dead Soul City, and he and this Dead Soul City should have a sworn feud.But the soul of the original owner had already been taken away, and it might have been refined into soul power by the Lord of the Dead Soul City. He could no longer interfere with Gan Jue's thoughts. Although Gan Jue sympathized with the dead Jinshui Village, he did not have a strong desire to avenge them.
And after getting along for so many days, for some reason, Gan Jue didn't feel that Su Jiu'er had such an evil side at all.Although she is very indifferent to people, Gan Jue can feel that she doesn't seem to be bad, what's going on?
. . . .

PS: Today is the first day of the new year, happy new year everyone.I hope everyone can be happy, joyful, peaceful and happy in the new year.ヽ(▽)ノ
