Chapter 1136: The Mysterious Netherworld
However, this kind of thing is meaningless, like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"It's a pity that it finally ran away." Yao Xi looked gloomy. Although the two of them didn't spend much time together, it was the first time that Lin Lang saw Yao Xi looking so lost.
"Little demon girl also has troubles?"
Lin Lang asked curiously.
"What does it have to do with you?" Yao Xi turned her head fiercely and said, "I'm not as careless as you. A genius of the Yuanhui level in the fairy world can't even catch a turtle in the end."
"I think it's better to lock you up." Lin Lang said, shaking the soul storage ball in his hand.
"You dare!"
As he spoke, Yao Xi proudly raised her chest and her figure quickly went away. Lin Lang didn't stop her, and soon followed her. After that, he never mentioned putting Yao Xi into the soul storage ball again.
One reason is that Yao Xi's methods are weird, and he may not be able to completely seal her. Another reason is that Yao Xi is wearing a collar, and it is impossible for her to escape from his palm in a short time.
...
The two walked side by side, which attracted the attention of many underworld cultivators. After all, it is not possible to keep a low profile with a Rakshasa princess.
But it doesn't matter.
Yao Xi can show up. For the time being, those Rakshasa strongmen know that the princess is still safe and are unlikely to trouble him, unless Yao Xi takes the initiative to leak the news.
This is also unlikely.
Yao Xi had already made a vicious oath to the heaven. With this heavy guarantee, Yao Xi is unlikely to have the idea of escaping in the short term.
About three days later.
The two clearly felt that the surrounding samsara aura was getting thicker and thicker. There were already many underworld immortal kings around who could not bear the pressure and took the initiative to withdraw from the range of the Styx.
The Styx, that is not something that everyone can break into.
At least.
Just these pressures that exceed the limit of the Immortal King realm are not something that anyone can resist. This includes some Immortal Emperor cultivators.
From here, it can be regarded as the depths of the Styx, and it is also a huge watershed between the Immortal King realm and the Immortal Emperor realm.
Strength is only one aspect, and the more important thing is accumulation.
"Meet Princess Yaoxi!"
"Meet Her Royal Highness!"
"Her Royal Highness!"
The moment Lin Lang and the others arrived, many of the surrounding Rakshasa Immortal Emperors came forward to greet them. As the daughter of a country and the favorite of a clan, Yaoxi would be flattered wherever she went.
Although Immortal Emperors may not publicly pay homage to members of the royal family, they still have to follow the proper etiquette. After all, most people still want to be familiar with Yaoxi.
By being favored by Her Royal Highness, any branch of the Rakshasa clan will rise to prominence from now on. They value Yaoxi's identity and the unreserved favor of the Rakshasa Emperor.
The Rakshasa Emperor lived for nine Yuanhui and had countless princes and princesses, but including the eldest princess and the eldest prince of the Rakshasa clan, their status was far from comparable to Yaoxi.
This can be seen from the fact that the Rakshasa Emperor gave power to Yaoxi. Because of this, even a seven-tribulation power like the Tathagata Ghost Emperor would respond to Yao Xi's requests.
Yao Xi nodded slightly in greeting, and didn't say much.
Not far away.
Several black clouds floated over, and seven or eight young cultivators jumped out of the clouds one after another. Their cultivation levels were uneven, all between the realm of Immortal King and Immortal Emperor.
The strongest was only a one-tribulation Immortal Emperor.
Lin Lang only took a rough glance and knew that this group of people were also Rakshasa cultivators. After all, the appearance of Rakshasa cultivators is too easy to recognize. The women are beautiful and the men are extremely ugly.
These people are almost the young nobles of the Rakshasa Kingdom. However, don't look at their mediocre cultivation, but from the group of protectors standing behind them.
The background is by no means that simple.
Basically, everyone's father or grandfather is a person who occupies a high position in the court. Either they are in charge of the court affairs, or their family is a hero and dominates one side.
"Greetings, Princess."
Among these people, the only one who was a one-tribulation immortal emperor came with many young Rakshasa clan members.
This person was probably the most outstanding one among the group. His title was Jiangba. His grandfather was the prime minister of the Rakshasa Kingdom, and he was extremely powerful. In addition, his family also had a significant influence in the Rakshasa Kingdom.
As for Jiangba himself, he was only two thousand years old, but he had already broken through to the realm of immortal emperor. This kind of talent was considered to be in the upper middle level even among the geniuses of various clans in the universe.
"I didn't expect to meet a few old friends on a trip to the Styx." Yao Xi's clear and pleasant voice came out, but the arrogance that kept people away from him made people feel a little awed.
"However, the Styx is much more dangerous now than before, so everyone should be careful."
"Thank you for your concern, Princess."
Jiangba bowed slightly. After the two chatted for a few words, Jiangba slowly approached and stood beside Yaoxi, smiling: "The Styx is dangerous. Can we go with the princess so that we can take care of each other."
"Yes."
Yaoxi nodded slightly.
Jiangba also naturally landed beside Yaoxi and slowly retreated to a slightly backward position. There is a difference between the monarch and the minister. It would be the biggest mistake to stand shoulder to shoulder with Princess Yaoxi without authorization.
For this reason, Jiangba couldn't help but look at Lin Lang more, secretly guessing his identity in his heart. I'm afraid that he is not a good person to stand shoulder to shoulder with Princess Yaoxi.
At this time.
Far away in the horizon, a monk from the underworld in the Immortal Emperor realm traveled thousands of miles to come to the River Styx. Perhaps he didn't know much about the River Styx, so he immediately stepped out without any hesitation and planned to cross the River Styx.
However.
At this moment, the Immortal Emperor of the Underworld suddenly felt a lightness under his feet. Even with the blessing of underworld power, his body was out of control, and his ability to fly completely disappeared.
"what happened?"
The Immortal Emperor monk panicked and fell directly from the sky, plopping into the Styx River.
next moment.
In the shrill howl.
Bubbles appeared one after another in the River Styx, and the body of this Yama monk began to melt at a speed visible to the naked eye, and few breaths passed.
The Immortal Emperor monk revealed his true form. His body is a seven-horned demon dragon, with a normal size of about 700 meters. However, under the corrosion of the river water, the seven-horned demon dragon directly turned into a gloomy white skeleton, and its huge body was only one or two meters long. .
What remains is the essence of an Emperor Realm monk’s life.
"There is a problem with this section of the River Styx, please be careful." A monk from the underworld warned carefully.
certainly.
To others, this is nonsense. In this situation, even a fool might be able to see that the depths of the River Styx are not that easy to break into.
But here's the thing.
What kind of power could pull an Immortal Emperor down from the air and melt him in a very short period of time?
"Is this also the case in Styx before?"
someone around asked.
"No, the Styx was not like this before."
A strong man from the Bone Race shook his head and said: "Not long ago, everyone could enter the depths of the River Styx to explore. Although there were dangers, it was not only impossible to fly in the River Styx."
"But now."
He shook his head and said: "I have never heard of such a situation. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Master Pluto chose to openly accept disciples at this time."
Lin Lang also frowned and looked at Yao Xi inquiringly.
The latter didn't know the reason, shook his head slightly, and said: "I don't know the reason either. Since historical records, the dangers in the Styx River are mostly caused by strange things, mostly caused by the ghosts and monsters in the Styx River."
"But this is the first time I have heard of the saying that the water of the Styx can hurt people. Unless..."
Talking and talking.
A strange brilliance suddenly bloomed in Yao Xi's eyes, and she quickly fell silent, seeming to be thinking about some possibility.
"Please ask Her Royal Highness the Princess to clarify my doubts."
After a while, Jiang Ba also asked aloud.
"There is a possibility that the River Styx is in turmoil, and innocent souls can harm people's lives." Yao Xi's face gradually became heavy.
It goes without saying what the turbulence of the Styx means. The underworld has always been poor in resources. Compared with spiritual energy, the energy of the underworld has little effect on monks.
The main reason why the overall strength of the underworld is on par with that of the fairy world is that this long river running through the underworld has enhanced the strength of the creatures in the underworld in a real sense.
Once the River Styx is in turmoil, it will be the beginning of the destruction of all life!
The only recorded turmoil in the Styx in history was eons ago, when all races in the world had not clearly defined racial boundaries.
That is the end of the Nine Emperors Era.
Talents emerged in large numbers in the Nine Emperors Era, and the same was true at the end of the Nine Emperors Era. It was the racial wars between more than a dozen Yuan Hui at the end of the Nine Emperors Era, which established the pattern of today's world.
One of the most far-reaching events was the turmoil in the River Styx, which devastated all life in the underworld. It is unknown how many geniuses from the underworld were buried in the River Styx.
The first Rakshasa Emperor rose up in that era and made great achievements in controlling the flooding of the River Styx. Then the order of the huge Rakshasa Kingdom was established. There are also unofficial histories that claim that the flooding of the River Styx was closely related to the first Rakshasa Emperor.
certainly.
There is no way to prove this kind of thing.
Everyone just listened to this kind of thing, but they didn't have any other emotions because of it. For them, the so-called Styx turmoil is still too far away.
"How could there be a problem in the good River Styx?" A protector of the Immortal Emperor said with a dumb smile: "If there is a problem in the River Styx, the three realms will not be at peace. We will not be the only ones affected at that time."
"That's wrong."
Yao Xi spoke calmly and said: "Do you know how many people died in the Styx turmoil recorded in the history books in ancient times? It's three billion. The three billion I'm talking about is not the number of living beings, but the number of true immortal monks."
The number of monks in ancient times was far less than in modern times. Basically, the monks who could cultivate to the realm of true immortals in ancient times were at least at the base of the realm of immortal kings in modern times.
Because there was no Immortal King realm at that time, a True Immortal in the Condensing Dao Realm could be promoted directly to the Immortal Emperor.
"There are three billion true immortals, and there are countless ordinary creatures. The floods in the Styx were filled by our ancestors with their lives. Do you still think this is a small thing?"
Yao Xi's tone was indifferent, she had to refute this kind of thing.
Perhaps because of Yao Xi's relationship, it was a bit quiet at this time.
"Let me say a few words."
Jiang Bao quickly spoke up and said: "Each clan in the underworld has its own grievances, but they will only join forces when the River Styx overflows. This is a major matter related to the survival of the underworld."
"Elder, please be careful what you say."
"It's because I didn't think carefully."
The old man also bowed his head when he saw this.
After a pause, Jiangba took the topic in another direction.
Said: "Pluto intends to accept disciples at this time. I think going to the depths of the River Styx is one of the tests."
"Since the Hades is interested, he will definitely leave a chance for some of us. It's just that we haven't found a way to enter the depths of the Styx for the time being."
"That's right."
Yao Xi also nodded gently.
Since the Hades intends to accept disciples at this time, it must be open to most of the cultivators. It is impossible to leave all the opportunities to high-level immortal emperors or masters.
Just when everyone was talking about it.
Yao Xi suddenly stretched out her slender jade hand, brushed across the sky, and her white and tender palm caught a wisp of invisible air.
"The wind is blowing."
Yao Xi murmured.
If it is normal, the Styx has always been calm, and there will be no astronomical anomalies except for these foreign cultivators.
In other words, no matter whether it is windy or rainy in the underworld, even if the sky falls, it will not interfere with the operation of the Styx. Those low-level avenues cannot affect the order of reincarnation.
Hearing Yao Xi's voice, feeling the imperceptible breeze around them, everyone's faces couldn't help but show a bit of tension.
With Yao Xi's words as a prerequisite, any abnormality in the Styx at this time deserves everyone's attention.
In a place like the Styx, if you are not careful, you may die without a burial place, so they have to be careful.
This situation probably only lasted for about half an hour.
