The demonic energy was extinguished, and there was no longer any obstacle on the way forward. The two masters Mei Lan crossed the rolling mountains and traced back to the source of the Yin energy. The cold poison spurted out from the cracks in the cliff. The wooden flying bird was an unknown magic weapon of the Immortal Family. With a flutter of its wings, it spread the cold poison far away and prevented it from getting close. At first, Wei Shiqi was worried about potential dangers in the mountains, and was wary of them. Then he thought about it, with Master Xian Sheng suppressing the battle, who would be able to take care of his leisure? Anyway, standing behind Master Lan, he couldn't mess around. Look, he just relaxed and looked down at the scenery of the cave.

The layout of the small world of the ghost cave is like a cut onion, expanding outward layer by layer. After the fourth layer of the Cold Poison Mountains, you can see a white line from a distance, running from east to west, surrounding the mountains. When you fly closer, it turns out to be a white line. The endless river is as far as the eye can see, with vast misty waves, turbulent waves, and yin energy steaming out, swaying endlessly, rolling towards the mountains, like the Milky Way hanging upside down, unstoppable.

Master Lan was startled, and suddenly remembered something. He was surprised and happy in his heart, and hurriedly urged Fei Fu to catch up with Master Mei, saying: "Senior sister, could this be...could it be..."

Master Mei looked at the vast river, moved slightly, and sighed: "Yes, this is the River Styx, one of the Seven Jedi in Great Yingzhou. I didn't expect it to be in this small world!"

The surging waters of the Styx are filled with hundreds of thousands of ghosts and soldiers. At that time, the Heavenly Demon Yuwen began to rise like a meteor. With his own efforts, he spread his wings and led an army to sweep across Da Yingzhou. If he went with it, he would prosper and if he went against it, he would perish. All the Heavenly Demon monks regarded him as a formidable enemy and secretly guessed that he had already killed him. He took possession of the Styx as his own, otherwise it would be impossible for Yan Jie to gather an army in such a short period of time and become a thorn in his side. But until the demon was defeated and sealed in the Chaos Qi Cave Heavenly Lock, the location of the Styx was not found. Some people even suspected that the Styx had been refined into the body by the demon and carried to the lower world.

Now everything is clear. The River Styx is actually hidden in the small world of the Ghost Cave. No one knows about it, and it has flowed quietly for tens of thousands of years. On the map of the Qiandu Realm, the Ghost Cave is just an inconspicuous dot, an evil realm that is useless for cultivation. I don’t know how many people have come quietly, but were blocked by the cold wind and poison, and found nothing. Then they quietly left, rubbing shoulders with the River Styx. And passed. Until the demon Yuwen broke into this world, overcame obstacles all the way, seized the opportunity, refined the "boundary monument", and became the master of the ghost cave. From then on, the Styx was born in his hand.

When? What luck? What's your destiny?

Master Mei was filled with emotions. One look at her sister revealed that the Styx River was too important. With just the two of her, it would be difficult to monopolize it. If Hu Bugui knew about it, he was the first one not to agree. Only Master Elephant Li Jingyun was in charge personally. Only then can we dispel everyone's covetousness and win this world for Xianyue Sanxing Cave.

Would Junior Sister be willing to hand over the Styx River to Master Jingyun like this?

Master Lan looked at the gloomy River Styx and didn't speak for a long time. Master Mei didn't urge her. This was a difficult choice. She was a little curious, would the junior sister be so powerful that she would become unconscious?

Wei Shiqi stood on Fuwei and secretly hid the orifice stone in his palm. He absorbed the Yin Qi in threads and poured it into the stone. Qin Zhen felt that this strand of Yin Qi was extremely pure. After refining a little, it would last ten days. As a result, my spirit was suddenly lifted.

Master Lan lowered his head and thought for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said: "My Xianyue Sanxing Cave has a small boundary. I am very happy to congratulate you. The Styx River should be shared by all of us, and it is not a private possession of one person. How to deal with it depends on the master." The elders make the decision.”

Master Mei smiled and said, "What junior sister said is absolutely true."

Lan Zhenren's eyes flashed brightly, and he wrote lightly: "The Lord of Qiandu City only knows that there is no owner in a small world, and the ghost cave is an evil world. It is useless to fight. It is better to do it as a favor and give it to the senior sister. I don't think he knows the details for a moment." ——Senior sister, it’s a rare opportunity to see the true face of the River Styx, why don’t you and I work together to explore it?”

Master Mei understands her intention. Although Styx River must be dedicated to the master, before that, why not get some benefits first, so that this journey will not be in vain. She also had this intention, nodded and said, "This is a very appropriate statement."

Master Lan hesitated for a moment, then turned around and told Wei Shiqi: "There are many dangers under the Styx River, and your cultivation is still shallow. Please wait here and don't stay away." After a pause, he continued: "The Yin Qi here is pure. , The practice of ghost path is rapid, and the female ghost you support has mediocre qualifications, and the skills she learns are also crude and unsustainable. I will pass on a tip to you. If she can pass the Yang Lei Pass and practice according to the law, it may be able to help you. "

She raised her bare hand and threw a dark wooden slip into Wei Shiqi's hand. She tapped the fug's back with her toes. The wood-carved flying fug flicked its tail, turned around and threw Wei Shiqi away, fluttering its wings and throwing itself into the River Styx. .

Master Mei's figure flashed, and he stood on Fu's back, and said with a chuckle: "The Secret of the Ebony Ghost King is hard to come by, but you are willing to give it up?"

Master Lan took out a jade hairpin from his bun. It has a simple style and is full of green light. It is layered with countless restrictions engraved on it. It is as thin as a gossamer and the five-color brilliance flows endlessly. She lightly stroked the hosta, and the Styx River suddenly boiled and surged, white waves surged into the sky, and suddenly parted from it, revealing a bottomless channel.

Master Lan pressed Feifu and threw it into the River Styx like an arrow. "That female ghost is Wei Shiqi's junior sister in the lower realm. She gave up her body and followed him to this realm, and she never left him. It's pitiable. She once won the title of Master. Guidance, combine the soul with the orifice stone to avoid the sun and thunder. Senior sister, who do you think is giving her guidance?"

Master Mei threw out the golden wheel talisman to share part of the pressure of the underworld water with his junior sister, "The art of lightning protection is very rare, and it is rare in this world. If what Master Yun said is true, Wei Shiqi is indeed involved with the devil."

Master Lan smiled lowly and said, "Yes, that's what makes it interesting... Senior sister, don't you think so?"

The two stepped on the duck together and submerged into the River Styx in an instant. The river suddenly closed and became calm as before.

Wei Shiqi landed with his feet on the ground and watched the two masters leave. He lowered his head and scrutinized the paper, and there were only five seal characters of "Ebony Ghost King Jue". Not a single word of the skill was missing, and there was nothing mysterious about it. He thought for a moment and laughed dumbly. Master Lan was hanging a carrot in front of his nose, making him unable to eat it to whet his appetite. She knew clearly how important Qin Zhen was in his heart.

Thinking of Qin Zhen, Wei Shiqi called her out of the orifice stone. She was nourished by the yin energy of the River Styx. She was full of energy and her figure was somewhat stable. She looked as if she was alive with every frown and smile.

Qin Zhen smiled and said, "Where is this? How long has it been? How many days? How many months? How many years?"

"It's only been a few dozen days. We are still in the ghost cave and will not leave for the time being. What do you think of practicing here?" Wei Shiqi reached out and touched her face. He felt some texture with his tentacles and was quite happy in his heart.

Qin Zhen breathed in the yin energy that filled the surrounding area, smiled sweetly, and whispered: "It's very good here, it couldn't be better..."

"That's the River Styx, the boundary of the ghost cave. It's a rare opportunity. You first absorb the Yin Qi and practice according to the law. When you break through the 'Yang Lei Pass', you can practice this technique again." Wei Shiqi shook the ebony slip in his hand, "The key given by Master Xian Sheng is probably not an ordinary thing..."

Qin Zhen curled her little finger, hooked the hanging hair behind her ears, and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
