Chapter 399: Netherworld
The water of the underworld connects heaven and earth, winding its way through twists and turns.

At this moment, the voice of the woman in red was like the cold light of ice and snow, making people's spines numb.

Gu Xuan spoke.

"Don't disturb them. They are the ferrymen of the underworld. They appear at night and disappear in the morning. Don't look them in the eyes."

The netherworld?

Ye Yang has heard this name many times.
Since the time of Tianyi Chunqiu, this name seems to have been appearing constantly.

The death of Tianyi Chunqiuzhu was also of vital importance to them.

"What the hell are they?"

"They are not things, but a kind of taboo that cannot be explained."

Gu Xuan pondered for a moment, then spoke.

"People are born, grow old, get sick and die. According to legend, after death, people will enter the underworld. However, every time the underworld appears, it feeds on people and treats them like pigs, dogs and livestock."

“It’s very confusing.”

"The resting place of the dead, but they eat people and kill their own kind?"

He thought of the scene he had seen in the desert before.

The scene of those skeletons with human bodies and snake heads kneeling and offering sacrifices to the Yellow River.

What kind of relationship do they have with the underworld?

Ye Yang raised his head and looked forward at this moment.

The woman in red was half squatting, and her face and facial features could not be seen clearly.

But the moment Ye Yang looked at her, he seemed to be touched.

He turned around blankly and faced Ye Yang.

The moment his eyes met Ye Yang’s.

Ye Yang felt creepy. This woman actually had no eyes.

At the critical moment, the scaly demon elephant in his sleeve roared to the sky.

The light of infinite sin emanates from oneself, stimulated by this light.

Ye Yang just woke up slowly.

The woman looked at the scaly demon elephant for a long time, but there were no facial features on her face.

Ye Yang couldn't see clearly what she was thinking or the changes in her expression.

"Be careful."

At the critical moment, a purple aura emanated from Gu Xuan's body, forming an extremely thick purple canopy above the two of them, concealing their figures.

At the same time, he was well prepared. He took out three incense sticks from his storage bag and stuck them into the ground.

Then he took out some fruits, put them down, and bowed three times.

"Fellow Daoist, my name is Gu Xuan. What's your name?"

The woman waved her hand and stretched out her right hand with three fingers missing, pointing to a dark and winding road in the darkness.

Gu Xuan thanked him quickly and took out some gold, silver, gems, spiritual medicines and materials to give over.

"I would like to ask you to accept this small gift of offering and to allocate a ferry boat."

The person did not refuse. With a wave of her hand, she swallowed the spiritual stones and spiritual materials and burped.

Then she looked at Ye Yang again.

Faced with this blatant solicitation of bribes, Ye Yang couldn't help but feel speechless.

Fortunately, he still had a few spiritual herbs that had not been made into pills, so he threw them out.

The woman opened her mouth, revealing a deep black hole. She swallowed them all without any scruples, and then her figure gradually disappeared into the mist.

"This is the water of the underworld, the five turbidities of the evil world, it is difficult for the living to cross it, so we will travel on a paper boat."

Ye Yang then realized that the yellow and white spirit stones were actually the boat fare.

Strangely enough, the white paper is thin, but it is as solid as a rock above the underworld. The paper boat is not big, but there is a special space inside.

Even the huge sun-chasing turtle can lie in it.

After a while, the paper boat cut through the thorns and went upstream against the water of the Yellow Spring.

The road was extremely eerie, covered in white fog, with faint shadows and roars of ghosts.

Seeing this scene, Gu Xuan's face became heavy.

Ye Yang's face was equally gloomy.

If it weren’t for this exploration, no one would have known that there was such a large area under the gate of Feitianmen.

And the most important thing is that there seem to be many secrets involved.

If an outbreak occurs in the future, Feitianmen will be in crisis at all times, and people will have to be cautious.

Ye Yang was hesitating. It seemed that this place was not just a simple tomb.

I don't know if this time, the inheritance of the method of melting evil that I have been seeking can be achieved.

Ye Yang felt heavy in his heart.

"Master, do you think the Four Symbols of Heaven's Will of the Spring and Autumn Master still exists in the world?"

Gu Xuan shook his head, still unsure in his heart.

"No one can say for sure. I have been searching for it for such a long time, but I still can't find any trace of it."

"After some exploration, I felt that there seemed to be some terrifying creatures living in this area."

When he said this, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.

"Even a True Person Realm expert is unsure?"

Ye Yang was slightly startled. The two of them remained silent all the way.

The paper boat sailed on the Yellow Springs River. After a while, the sky became slightly brighter and a ray of sunlight appeared in the distant sky.

But as soon as the sunlight hit the earth, it was blocked by the moonlight again. A bright moon rose in the sky and the moonlight quietly fell.

Finally, the paper boat stopped next to a reef and several people got off the white paper boat.

At this time, there was an extremely huge ship docked on the shore.

The ship is countless kilometers long and wide, and is covered with rust.

At this moment, it is like a long dragon, lying across the shore of the Yellow Springs.

Ye Yang was surprised.

Although he didn't know the grade of this giant ship.

But it can be seen that this giant ship is of extremely high grade.

It is rare to see a ship as huge as this one that can roam the ocean without fear.

Like the huge flying beasts, they are all strategic items of the sect and are rare treasures that are hard to come by throughout the ages.

It can serve as the true foundation of a force.

A smile appeared between Gu Xuan's brows, and then he said.

"The Lord of the Four Symbols of Heaven's Will is proficient in the changes of the four seasons and is very powerful. If I am not mistaken, this object is his ship, the Myriad Symbols Four Seas."

"But I didn't expect that when he died, this treasure ship was also buried in the tomb. Now, after ten thousand years, it has become tattered and dilapidated."

This ancient giant ship has gone through tens of thousands of years, which is really too long.

Many things inside have become rotten and can no longer be used.

But the hull remains solid.

Ye Yang stretched out his hand and knocked on the huge hull, and a clanging sound like knocking on gold and iron was heard.

There was a hint of surprise in Ye Yang's eyes.

"This is actually a fourth-level iron axle wood."

Iron axle wood grows one inch in a hundred years, becomes a foot high in a thousand years, and becomes ten feet high in ten thousand years. It is extremely hard and has the ability to float in the air.

It is the preferred main material for large warships and spacecraft.

This Wanxiang Sihai ship is so huge that I wonder how many iron axles and wood were used. It is really hard to imagine.

"Let's go in and take a look."

At this time, the two looked at the huge ancient ship in front of them, found a crack, and entered the huge ship.

The moonlight was bright outside.

It's very dark inside
Gu Xuan waved his hand slightly, and the Red Flame Flying Crow Gourd floated in the air, emitting countless flames all around, dispelling the darkness.

At this moment, with the help of the bright firelight, Ye Yang could see that there was another world inside this huge ship.

The furnishings inside were arranged like a giant palace, with neat and orderly layout, although the vermilion lacquer was already mottled.

But the carvings are still clear.

There are giant beasts flying across the sky, cloud patterns and purple smoke shapes, as well as flying cranes and silver apes offering longevity.

It is conceivable that it must have been extremely luxurious, magnificent and beautiful ten thousand years ago.

"This kind of unique thing is really rare."

"When this spirit ship was in its prime, it was at least a fourth-tier treasure. Even an ordinary real person might not be able to build one even if he spent all his wealth."

“Only in ancient times, when spiritual materials were everywhere and a local overlord like Tianyi Chunqiu Lord gathered all the manpower and material resources, could it be forged.”

The two continued to walk forward, passed through a huge door, and entered an inner space.

Compared with the previous magnificence, the scene inside has changed again.

The hall was densely packed with various bones.

There are human tibias, leg bones, and spines, but more are skulls.

They were stacked layer upon layer, with skulls placed on the top to form a tower.

The strangest thing is that there are five thumb-sized black holes on the smooth skull.

It was as if someone reached in with five fingers and sucked out the brain.

"What kind of monster is this? It can actually suck people's brains?"

The two of them frowned. The marks on the bones clearly showed that they had happened recently.

It seems that this house on the giant ship was specially decorated to hold these bones.

Looking further ahead, I saw a huge mural at the back of the wall.

The mural is sloppily drawn, but you can roughly make out the shapes.

In the middle sits a figure, with thunder and lightning changing with the seasons behind him, majestic and magnificent.

And below his seat, there were countless figures kneeling down in worship.

However, the figures in these pictures were not people, but babies with human bodies and snake heads, about a foot long.

The limbs are between humans and monkeys, and the claws and swords are connected by webbed feet.

It was exactly the same as the skeleton he had encountered in the desert before.

Below the mural, there are countless dilapidated wooden boxes.

He made a sword gesture, the sword flashed, and with a grunt, the wooden box opened.

There are all kinds of weird skulls inside.
