Chapter 519 The Flower of the Undead
What's in Wangchuan Lake?
Gan Jue didn't know.
But he still wanted to go down and have a look.What if under this lake, like the bottom of the lake of life, there are realms or treasures such as life enchantment and mysterious enchantment?Maybe it can help his cultivation, making it easier for him to enter the realm when attacking Super Douluo and Limit Douluo.
Controlling her soul power to push herself, Gan Jue swam all the way to the bottom of the lake at a speed of a few yuan.
The depth of Wangchuan Lake is not that great, it is much deeper than the Lake of Life, only a few hundred meters, and Gan Jue soon reached the bottom of the lake.But because the light in the Secret Sea of the Underworld is extremely dim, it is only about 100 meters below the lake, and you can't see your fingers.Even Gan Jue couldn't see with his flaming pupils.Therefore, Gan Jue could only untie the concealment of Qianjue, the wolf spirit, and reveal the soul ring of his sheep spirit.Under the shining of the red and black light, he could see everything at the bottom of the lake clearly.
However, at the moment of seeing clearly, Gan Jue was immediately stunned.
He didn't find any treasures, but what he found were huge Necromancer Stones, one after another.
Yes, the Necromancer.
The bottom of the lake of this Wangchuan River is actually not even a trace of silt, and there are only necroliths gathered together like huge flowers.These undead flowers are closely connected from the size of a palm on the edge of Wangchuan Lake to the size of a hill in the middle of the lake, and they are extremely spectacular.Gan Jue got into it, and shuttled among the huge stone pillars of the dead that required several people to surround them. His shock was beyond words.
Only now does Gan Jue know that there are so many necromancer stones stored at the bottom of the lake.Then what else would he mobilize the soul masters from Dead Soul City to gather in the secret realm of the Underworld?He could have taken them out by himself, it was unnecessary.If one of the flowers of the dead souls in the middle of the lake is broken off at random, it is estimated that it will be enough for the city of dead souls to use for a year.And the endless flowers of the dead souls at the bottom of the lake are added together, and the dead soul city may not be able to use them up for hundreds of years.
"Okay. Although no treasures have been found, having these inexhaustible necromancers can relieve some of the burden, and Brother Xiao and the others don't have to worry about calculating the population and consumption for the next ten years."
Thinking about it, Gan Jue inspected the bottom of the lake again, and after confirming that there was nothing at the bottom of the Wangchuan Lake except for the Necromancer Stone, he went ashore, opened the wormhole after shaking the lake water away from his body, and returned to the underworld.
It's just that no matter which side of the underworld or the secret realm of the underworld opens the wormhole to teleport to the other side, the place where it appears is random, so Gan Jue has to spend time looking for the city of dead souls.
"It's not going to work like this. Although an hour or two is not long, it would be too troublesome if I need to waste this time every time I go back and forth between the underworld and the sea of darkness. I have to find a way to leave a location in the city of dead souls and the sea of darkness. After I open the wormhole in the future, I can be directly teleported to the place where I am located. This is convenient.
All the way back to the Dead Soul City, but Gan Jue didn't let Fan Jiu and Xie An open the huge city gate this time, it was too troublesome.Instead, he greeted them directly and asked them to open the small door next to them, entered the city in a low-key manner, and went all the way up to find Long Xiao who was dealing with the task arranged by Qian Jue yesterday in the main hall of the city.
"Why are you here, Ah Jue? Didn't you take Xiaoyun and the others to the Secret Sea of Darkness? Why did you come back so soon?"
Seeing Gan Jue coming in, Long Xiao was a little surprised and put down the things in his hands.
"Something happened, so I had to hurry back. You sit in your seat, don't let me."
While Gan Jue said this, Niannian smiled and came to Long Xiao's side. Seeing that Long Xiao seemed to want to give up the position to him, he quickly greeted him.
"Okay, so what did you find out?"
Since Gan Jue asked him to sit, Long Xiao was not too polite and sat down with peace of mind.It's just that she was so curious that she asked Qian Jue what happened in the secret realm.
Of course, he is not in a hurry.After all, judging by the smile on Gan Jue's face, it doesn't look like anything bad happened, it should be good news.
"That's right. Didn't I tell you four years ago that there is a piece of Wangchuan Lake in the middle of the Secret Sea of Darkness?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"I took the time to look at the bottom of the lake today. Brother Xiao, guess what I found?"
"What did you find? It can't be the Necromancer Stone, right?"
Long Xiao guessed uncertainly, but he hit the answer straight away.After all, in the Secret Sea of Darkness, the only thing that is useful to the City of Dead Souls is the Necromancer Stone.
"Brother Xiao is amazing! I guessed it right away. That's right, I discovered that the bottom of the lake of Wangchuan Lake is actually full of necromancer stones, densely packed, almost covering the entire bottom of the lake. There are so many of them, I don't think the city of Dead Souls will be able to use them up in 100 years.
"Ajue, are you sure?!"
Long Xiao stood up in shock.As the deputy city lord who has been managing the affairs of Dead Soul City for the past few years, Long Xiao paid much more attention to the Necromancer than Qian Jue.After all, he clearly knows that each of these Necromancer Stones is a necessity for the survival of thousands of Necromancer City residents.
"Of course I'm sure. Didn't I come back? I just want to tell you that I don't need to be so busy calculating the consumption of necromancer stones and population, and I won't have to be so tight in the future. After all, 100 years later, I will definitely inherit the position of God of Death."
"Okay! I understand!"
Long Xiao clenched his fist excitedly.
"By the way, how many necromancer stones I left in the city four years ago are left? Is it enough?"
"There are a little more than 250 square meters. With the increase in population, the annual consumption of necromancers in the city has exceeded [-] square meters. Our inventory can last for about two years."
"Two years? All right. I'll find time to ship out more."
Gan Jue nodded understandingly.
"That would be great. In this way, we will no longer have to worry about the consumption of necromancer stones in the future. We can also increase the population's fertility again, and even promulgate some policies to encourage births. No, we still need to control it. Although the consumption of necromancer stones does not need to worry about it now, after all, the city of necromancers is so big, and the population density is another problem. Or we can change some places that are not too necessary into living places, so as to free up some space."
Long Xiao was thinking about it on his own, completely forgetting that Gan Jue was still at the side.
Jue didn't care if it wasn't enough, and he could even be said to be very satisfied with Long Xiao's state, which showed that Long Xiao had really brought himself into the role of the city lord.
But there is no way, Gan Jue still has to interrupt him, after all, he doesn't want to waste too much time here, he still has other things to do.
"Okay, brother Xiao, you can slowly figure out these things when you come down, I have to tell you something."
"Okay, you say it!"
Long Xiao, who was interrupted, was not angry, but just looked at Gan Jue listening attentively.
"Don't let too many people know about the fact that necromancer stones are no longer scarce. At most, it's enough to tell the palace masters like Uncle Xun Zang and Aunt Bai. Although the necromancer stones can hardly be spent today, I still don't want the soul masters in the necromancer city to return to the previous state of only relying on necromancer stones for cultivation."
"Okay, don't worry, I understand. But the range of rewards should be relaxed a bit, after all, the Necromancer is the best reward for those soul masters who have contributed to the city of Dead Souls."
"Of course it's possible. Brother Xiao, you can figure it out for yourself. I only provide some general directions."
"it is good!"
Long Xiao nodded heavily.
"Okay, then you can keep busy. I still have something to do, so I'll leave first. Oh, yes, although you don't need to count the consumption of population and necromancers anymore, but the assembly of soul masters must continue. Even if they don't need them to go to the secret realm of the underworld to help me collect stone spirit stones, the matter of going to the front line will not change. And I think after they gather, they will first go to Uncle Zang's hands to fight against the wild beasts for a year or two, and then send them to the front line. Maybe our soul masters will not be able to go to the front line. Yes, it can also be used as a surprise soldier."
"Don't worry, I will deal with this matter as the main work content in the future."
"Okay, Brother Xiao, I'm leaving first, so don't be too tired. Also, your soul power has to be brought up quickly before you wake up. I think your soul power was the highest among the four of us back then, but now it's at the bottom."
"You really don't feel pain in your back when you stand and talk, do you think I don't want to? You don't care about things, how can I have so much time to practice? If I didn't listen to you at the beginning, I can barely pull up a management team now, otherwise I'm afraid I wouldn't even have the little time to practice.
I now know why City Lord Su chose to leave. The responsibility of the City Lord is really too heavy.Well"
After finishing speaking, Long Xiao realized belatedly that he seemed to have mentioned something that shouldn't be mentioned, and quickly saw Gan Jue.
Sure enough, the smile on Gan Jue's face had disappeared, replaced by a slightly sad expression.
"I'm sorry, Jue, I."
"Okay, it's okay, brother Xiao, I'll go first."
Gan Jue forced a smile, patted Long Xiao on the shoulder, and then turned and left the city lord's hall.
After coming out, the sad look on Gan Jue's face gradually changed to a thoughtful look.
Now that Su Jiu'er's resurrection is not far away, when Gan Jue enters the realm of Titled Douluo, he can try to completely restore her soul.And by that time, the medicinal materials from Bai Kou's side should have been collected and shipped back.
Although Gan Jue had given Bai Kou the names of many precious medicinal materials at the beginning, it did not mean that all those medicinal materials had to be collected in order to revive Su Jiu'er.Even if some medicinal materials are not collected, the impact will not be great, after all Tang San's vitality is there, those medicinal materials are more, just play a supporting role.
Thinking in his heart, Gan Jue gradually walked through the suspended corridor, entered the black pillar room dedicated to the city lord, and reached the bottom of Dead Soul City through the lifting of the black pillar. After coming out, he came to the door of the hexagonal tower with a clear purpose.
In this hexagonal tower, there are wormholes connecting the underworld and the Lost Grand Canyon, and they are of the permanent type. Gan Jue wants to see if he can pass through the wormholes here, and researches that permanent wormholes can be opened on both sides of Dead Soul City and Underworld Secret Realm, and it is best to fix the location, so that it will be more convenient for them to practice in the secret realm.
Gently pushing the door open and entering, the empty corridor with faint green lights came into Gan Jue's eyes.Looking at the scenery that hadn't changed from four years ago, he couldn't help but think of the time when Su Jiuer brought him here for the first time.
However, just as he started to recall, he suddenly felt as if someone was watching him.When he looked up, he saw the old woman he met back then, holding the green lantern, standing quietly at the end of the corridor, wondering if she was waiting for him.
Naturally, Gan Jue wasn't afraid. Dang even stepped forward and stopped a few meters away from the old woman.
Gan Jue and the old woman looked at each other for a few seconds, and finally the other party was the first to get discouraged, and bowed to Qian Jue as a salute.The hexagonal tower guards Lin Ling and pays homage to the city lord.
"Lin Ling...? Please get up, don't be too polite, what should I call you?"
"The city lord can just call the old woman by her name."
"It's not right, you are so old, you can be regarded as Gan Jue's elder. Forget it, just like Xun Lao and Gu Gu, call you Lin Lao."
"The city lord was joking. The old woman is just a dying person, and she cannot be called the same title as the master of Xun palace and the ancient guardian."
Although he said so, Lin Ling didn't continue to struggle with it, but turned to Gan Jue and asked slowly:
"When did the city lord come back? For four years, the old woman has never heard anything from you, the city lord. I heard that the city lord has the ability to return to the Lost Grand Canyon without going through the hexagonal tower. Why did he suddenly come to the hexagonal tower now?"
"This is Mr. Lin. I came here to study the wormhole of the hexagonal tower, and see if I can find a way to connect the Death Soul City and the center of the Underworld Secret Realm."
Gan Jue directly stated his purpose, after all, this is not something shameful.
"Well, although I don't quite understand what you mean, City Lord, but you come with me."
Lin Ling said, turned around slowly, took Gan Jue and walked towards the stairs of the tower, and while walking, said to Gan Jue:
"The city lord has never been here except once with the old city lord. Let me introduce to you first: there are a total of eight wormholes in this hexagonal teleportation tower, which are distributed on the second to fifth floors, which can lead to various areas of the Lost Grand Canyon. Among them, only two can pass through each other, and the remaining six can only pass from this hexagonal tower to the canyon. I don't know which one the city lord wants to see first?
"Let's look at the intercommunication first. After all, I originally wanted to study how to create intercommunication wormholes."
"Okay, City Lord, please follow me."
