According to Jidian, merit can resist the breath from Naihe.
This prevents the soul from being wiped out when it enters the river, making it easier to retrieve memories of previous lives after reincarnation.
Qin Bai had no intention of jumping into the Naihe River, so it would not be a big deal to consume some merit appropriately, but he could not help but feel distressed.
He continued on his way towards Naihe, exploring the functions of each meritorious weapon along the way.
What makes Qin Bai a little disappointed is that, generally speaking, merit weapons cannot kill, but are more about protecting oneself.
Moreover, after being transformed into a merit weapon, the style of the weapon will be deviated, such as the foot Lijian on Qin Bai's feet.
A good pair of sneakers turned into flip-flops after consecration.
The function is that when wearing it and falling from high altitude, the merit weapon can help him slow down to a certain speed and make the weight lighter.
The most outrageous thing is that the Golden Hammer, after consecration, has no lethality at all and has become a healing weapon instead.
Qin Bai sighed helplessly, maybe this is the hammer of kindness.
Fortunately, he didn't turn all the flying swords into merit weapons out of impulse, otherwise the sword cultivator persona he had finally established might have collapsed.
Qin Bai also confirmed that what Qingyou said was true through the gray-robed man and the demons in Biancheng.
If you want to leave the underworld, you can only ask the ferryman on the Nai River. He is the only one who knows where the rift is.
But for most demons, leaving the underworld is completely pointless.
The aura of demons and monsters in the world is thin, and there are a large number of Taoist monks, making it difficult to survive at all.
Qin Bai continued on his way.
Suddenly there was a burst of yin energy in the distance, the temperature suddenly dropped by more than ten degrees, and even the leaves were covered with thick frost.
A giant spider-like monster was seen across the plain.
It is extremely fast and uses its branches to sweep away the demons around it to satisfy its appetite.
Qin Bai has long been used to it. After all, the most indispensable thing in the underworld are monsters with terrifying cultivation. Keeping a low profile is the way to go.
He calmly took out the rice fishing rod from his fishing bag, then found a boulder and sat down cross-legged.
The fishhook traced a graceful arc and sank into the ground, and then the fishing rod emitted a faint white light that enveloped Qin Bai.
His figure fades away, as if blending into the environment.
The spider demon didn't notice Qin Bai. It walked past and left footprints one by one.
After he was sure that the demon was gone, Qin Bai put away the rice fishing rod, but there was no harvest on the hook.
Mainly because he didn't use his fishing powers.
There was a time when he was trying to avoid a monster, but his fishhook accidentally dragged the monster in front of him.
Qin Bai had no choice but to take action. Fortunately, the commotion did not attract other demons, otherwise he would have taken a desperate risk and summoned his true form.
He knew that he had to be careful in the underworld. There were many monsters here that he couldn't deal with at all.
It won't take long for Naihe to arrive.
Qin Bai couldn't help but speed up his pace, and became more cautious at the same time, for fear that a demon would suddenly appear and attack.
He left obvious clues as he walked. With Yan Chixia and Yiye Zhiqiu's powers of observation, they should have noticed it easily.
There was no day or night in the underworld, so he could only rely on his Rolex watch to estimate the time. Before he knew it, more than half a year had passed since he set out from Biancheng.
It should be the Spring Festival in the world now, and Qin Bai could imagine how lively the streets were.
The sound of flowing water broke his thoughts, and he could hear it coming from the direction of the Nai River.
He couldn't help but get excited, he was finally reaching his destination, and he didn't know what the rumored Nai River was like.
By the time Qin Bai could see the endlessly flowing Nai River, he had already traveled for several days, and the ghost soil under his feet had been replaced by grains of sand.
At a glance, the width of the Nei River can't be seen from the edge, making the trees on the other side only the size of sesame seeds.
The river water was pitch black, and although it was extremely fast, it didn't make any splash, giving him the illusion of being eternal.
It seems that if you want to leap over, you may be in danger.
The shore is made up of fine grains of sand, and when you grab it with your hands, it disappears from your fingertips in an instant.
Qin Bai looked around. He found no demons, not even any traces of footprints.
He was on alert and prepared to escape at any time.
Even though he was within half a meter of Naihe, Qin Bai still didn't feel anything strange. Instead, his breathing became heavier due to nervousness.
"kindness?"
He seemed to have hit something hard and quickly lowered his head to look.
Qin Bai pushed aside the sand with his feet, and a yellow-white stone was revealed in front of him. After digging it out, he found that it was a bone.
The bones are fragments the size of a palm, but it is estimated that the body was at least fifty or sixty meters tall during life.
Qin Bai squeezed the bones hard, and the fragments fell on the sand sea and disappeared quickly, as if they were swallowed by the sand.
And he noticed that there seemed to be signs of flow in the sand sea, but the speed was very slow, and a hundred years was only a palm's length away.
"Good guy, he really eats people without spitting out their bones."
To be on the safe side, Qin Bai spit out a newly born monster from the aquarium.
The demon didn't even have intelligence, but it still wanted to stay away from Naihe uncontrollably, trying to break free from his hands.
Qin Bai threw the demon to the far bank of the river.
The demon merged into the beach without taking a few steps, so fast that even Qin Bai, who was concentrating, could not catch it.
His expression became strange, then he walked to the place where the demon disappeared and picked up an insignificant grain of sand from the ground.
With Qin Bai's current eyesight, it was impossible to see it wrong. Unexpectedly, the demon's soul turned into sand.
A very absurd idea suddenly came to him.
Isn't this boundless beach made up of billions of souls? Wouldn't reincarnation be a joke?
I'm afraid if you want to cross the beach, you must have merit or cultivation...
In order to verify his guess, Qin Bai took the merit instruments back into the fish bag one by one and suppressed the merits forcibly. Suddenly a lot of noisy sounds rang from his ears.
Countless souls scream miserably, and will invisibly turn others into grains of sand.
Qin Bai channeled his true energy, and his voice was immediately isolated, but it was consumed several times faster than usual.
Regardless of whether the yin and yang were reversed or not, there was probably a change in the underworld that caused the system of reincarnation to collapse.
Mortals who fall into the underworld will either become food for evil spirits or be swallowed up by their own evil deeds.
Even if you are lucky enough to reach the Nai River, you will become one of the grains of sand, and you don’t know how many thousand years it will take to enter the Nai River.
The area of the beach is equivalent to a small desert, which shows how many souls are buried in it.
Qin Bai threw another demon into the Nai River.
He found that the demon sank to the bottom as soon as it touched the river water, without even a trace of resistance.
As for the merit artifact, although it lasted longer, it soon turned back into an ordinary artifact.
Qin Bai raised his head and glanced at Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
With his current strength, it would be a fantasy to cross the Nai River physically. Even if he has meritorious magical weapons to protect his body, he should just wait for the ferryman.
Qin Bai then took out a large amount of materials and built a simple house in a short time.
Next, he would have to stay by the Naihe River for a long time, maybe for decades. Naturally, he would make the living environment as perfect as possible, at least not worse than the living environment.
The house looks ordinary on the outside, but in fact it is fully equipped with all kinds of electrical appliances and furniture.
Moreover, a huge sign was erected on the roof, making it easier for Yan Chixia and the others to find it.
There is also a camera installed at the door, so you don't have to stare at the river for twelve hours.
He was lying on the sofa, with a stove beside him to cook some barbecue.
Qin Bai felt much more comfortable than when he was in Biancheng, and it was just right for retreat.
Then he began to sort out each system and concentrated on practicing contemplation.
Although there is still a long way to go to achieve the state of Arhat, it can at least strengthen the soul so as not to be overwhelmed when crossing the yin and yang realms.
In addition, Qin Bai also wandered along the river bank when he had nothing to do, to see if he could find any messages left by his predecessors when they were reincarnated.
Naturally, there was no gain and I had to concentrate on practicing in seclusion.
His mentality gradually calmed down from the initial impatience. Anyway, even if he was trapped in the underworld for hundreds of years, his talent would be enough to achieve success.
Qin Bai is even confident that he will be able to achieve a breakthrough in refining the gods and returning to the void within fifty years. By then, the transformation of the five systems will bring a lot of improvement.
He got used to the days of seclusion, and began to amuse himself by refining various arcade machines, changing methods to increase the difficulty.
The monsters in the arcade were tortured to death, and countless people gave up their Internet addiction.
The third reincarnation mission in the aquarium has also been successfully completed.
Qin Bai airdropped the reincarnations into the two camps on Demon Island.
They are the Miao people who are proficient in Gu magic and the half-demon who develops thermal weapons.
Finally, they were guided to compete for the ore resource points, thus creating a conflict.
According to the low difficulty level set by Qin Bai, it would be difficult for the reincarnators to die without committing suicide, so most of them survived, but their opposition to each other became more intense.
Qin Bai just watched the TV series from God's perspective, and he didn't notice how much time had passed.
Until the peaceful retreat was accidentally broken, and a black spot appeared on the lake.
After Qin Bai took a few glances to make sure he didn't admit his mistake, he quickly ran out of the house.
Then he took out his telescope, which is the version of a merit instrument. Even after magnifying it several times, he could only see a blurry black shadow, and it was on the other side.
He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. This was not the so-called ferryman, but maybe a demon that had entered by mistake.
Just when Qin Bai was about to return to the house, he saw a bright light flashing, which was clearly caused by the casting of a spell.
"Brother Xueyou?!!!"
Qin Bai took out his flashlight and flashed it several times, and the black shadow did respond.
Yiye Zhiqiu on the other side had his arms on his hips, mainly because the sign on the roof was very obvious and could be seen from a long distance away.
He couldn't help but put the eye-clearing charm on his forehead, and then he realized that there was a tall man on the other side holding a skewer in his hand.
"Damn you, Qin Bai."
At that time, the old demon from Black Mountain dragged the three of them down to the underworld. Yan Chixia disappeared first, then him, and finally Qin Bai.
Yiye Zhiqiu is on the outskirts of the underworld, and the other party should be deeper into it.
Yan Chixia might not be in the underworld at all. She might have strayed into the gap between the Yin and Yang worlds. It would be easiest to return to the Yang world.
The two stared at each other from across the bank.
Qin Bai felt helpless and wanted to confirm Yiye Zhiqiu, but he couldn't use the contact spell.
Wait, if it's light...
He suddenly realized something and immediately modified the flashlight so that he could deform the projected beam at will.
Qin Bai used a flashlight to ask, while Yiye Zhiqiu answered yes or no through his steps.
Through communication, Qin Bai learned that Yiye Zhiqiu's current situation was even more unlucky than imagined.
The other party almost died at the hands of a demon and managed to escape by stocking up on food.
Qin Bai was gloating about the misfortune and told Yiye Zhiqiu about the ferryman, so that the two of them could take care of each other so as not to miss the opportunity to go back.
Under such circumstances, several months passed without realizing it.
Yiye Zhiqiu needs to run around looking for food and water in order to survive, and his cultivation level cannot stay by the Nai River for a long time.
In comparison, Qin Bai was much more comfortable, and those who didn't know thought he was on vacation.
And the opportunity to contact the ferryman came later than expected.
A light mist filled the Nai River, and souls whizzed past.
Qin Bai walked to the shore with a solemn expression. He noticed a small boat on the river going upstream, neither fast nor slow.
"Old man, I'm on a boat!!!"
He shouted several times, but got no response.
Qin Bai simply put the house away and then ran with the ferryman on the shore. The same was true for Yiye Zhiqiu.
After the boat traveled a section of the river, it slowly moved toward the shore.
Qin Bai yelled, but he didn't expect that it was Yiye Zhiqiu on the other side of the river.
This was extremely unlucky. If he got the information, he could immediately pass it on to the other party with a flashlight, but Yiye Zhiqiu couldn't contact him.
Qin Bai was entangled in his heart. He couldn't wait for the ferryman to show up next time, what if it was hundreds of years later.
He hesitated and took out his flashlight, shining the words on the other side.
Yiye Zhiqiu turned his head to look, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Qin Bai's intention was very clear, which was to let him delay as much time as possible. Damn it, wasn't this a scam?
Just when Yiye Zhiqiu wanted to refuse with his steps, he saw the boat docked on the shore, and a thin figure walked out of it.
It sounded like a cappella or chanting, the sound came from inside.
"The soul is back..."
Cold sweat broke out on Yiye Zhiqiu's back, and he had the urge to turn around and run away immediately, but as soon as he thought that this was an opportunity to leave the underworld, his legs froze on the ground.
"Um, may I ask...who are you?"
"I?"
"I don't know...what to call it?"
The thin figure turned around, and Yiye Zhiqiu was a little surprised. This man looked no different from an ordinary old man.
And he has an inexplicable aura, like that of an ascetic who cultivates the afterlife.
"The common name has long been forgotten. I came here just to pick up someone."
"Pick someone up?"
Yiye Zhiqiu wanted to say hello and run away, but because he wanted Qin Bai's instructions, he had to bite the bullet and chat.
The old man shook his head, his expression seemed to be reminiscing: "If you want to leave here, I can give you an answer."
"Uh... if you don't mind, let's chat again?" Ichigo said with a smile.
