Chapter 489: Red Clouds
......
Almost at the same time as Lei Dong and his party marched towards the goal.
I don't know how many miles away, a wide and almost boundless crimson yellow river, like a link, floated in the depths of the Nine Shadows Abyss. The river rushes and winds its way to the deepest depths, and no one knows where it leads. It is said that the Nine Shades are sinister, but the world knows that the abyss in the Nine Shades is the most dangerous place.
However, among the most dangerous places in the abyss, this Styx is one of them. The width of the River Styx is tens of thousands of miles at its narrowest point, and hundreds of thousands or millions of miles at its widest point. The dark water is muddy and rushing, and I don't know how many dangerous and powerful unknown species live in it. And that's not even the most dangerous thing, the River Styx is inherently possessed by its ability to attract spirits.
Whether it's a god soul, a primordial baby, or a primordial god. These are all enhanced versions or variants of the soul, and they also seem to be unable to escape the sucking of the Styx. It was even more unthinkable to fly directly over the River Styx, and a cloud of red mist over and around the River Styx was floating over and around the River Styx.
It is said that it was the result of the evaporation and volatilization of the evil spirits in the River Styx and the most toxic substances in the river water for countless years. The River Styx has existed for an unknown number of years, and the red clouds over the River Styx have also existed for an unknown number of years, and they continue to extend and widen on both sides, and now, the width of the Red Cloud is dozens of times that of the River Styx.
Therefore, in order to reach the River Styx, one must walk from below the red clouds.
The Red Mist is not a simple thing, this thing is really one of the few ecstasy and bone destroying things in the world, once ordinary monks get involved in a star, they will even bring people to the bone. and the soul was all eroded and digested. And that's not all, there are all kinds of magical and strange creatures living in the red mist, they are like fish in water to survive in the endless red mist.
The more treacherous the place, the more likely it is that the species that will survive during this period will be powerful and ferocious. The environment forced them to kill and evolve in order to survive. As a result, even some god-level powerhouses. I don't want to run into the red clouds and mist when I have nothing to do, and God knows what I'm going to run into inside?
But at this moment, this is in the layer of red clouds on the banks of the River Styx. But a group of uninvited guests came.
In this group of unexpected visitors, there are clearly two camps inside. Each of them was a tall and slender woman with a cold face and wearing black clothes and black armor. The first one is extremely tall, his skin is as white and jade as clotted fat, and his face is stunning. However, its body is full of cold air that no one can approach. The most peculiar thing is that one of her eyes is always gently closed. Never open half a minute. gave her a stunning appearance, adding a bit of mystery and weirdness.
Seven or eight women who were also extraordinary, and who could go to the catwalk in Lei Dong's previous life and were very popular, guarded her in the middle in a semi-arc, and the black mist around her body was shrouded in black fog, forcing the surrounding red clouds and mist to open for dozens of feet. If a strong person sweeps it away with the technique of looking at qi, he will find that these eight women are all extremely powerful masters. The qi and blood are strong, the combat power is strong, and they are clearly middle-level, or even high-level existences. And the woman with her eyes closed around her was completely constricted, and she couldn't see the depth of her cultivation. can only judge from the sense of coercion she inadvertently revealed that this woman is by no means an idle person.
Another group of people. It is even more mysterious, with only a few three. But each body was completely covered in a wide black robe, and its appearance and outline could not be seen. These three people were not only filled with a cold and strange aura, but also exuded a fishy and unpleasant smell all over their bodies. Compare it to the stench in this red mist. It's still a little fierce. provoked the group of young and beautiful women to stay away from them, and their eyes showed a little disgust from time to time. ..., among the black-robed people, the leader is a man who seems to be quite tall, and he is so tall in the black robe that he can't even see his hands and feet. But even he showed a suffocating sense of fear.
"Insect Emperor, my young lady asks you, are you sure you have found the remains of the Hades Temple near here?" a woman with a cold face and a slightly round face exclaimed coldly. And the woman who was called Miss didn't even open her eyelids, as if she didn't want to, and she didn't bother to talk to the person called the Insect Emperor.
But change it to any of the Nether Ghosts. Even those who had a little insight in other domains were stunned when they heard the name Worm Emperor. Among the six domains and nine continents, the only person named the Worm Emperor is the boss of the corpse worm clan among the four major races of the Nether Ghost Snake. It was a god-level existence, but what it was best at was not hand-to-hand combat, but harnessing all kinds of fierce insects.
The corpse insect race is one of the few intelligent races in the world that are extremely ugly, just like the Yakshas, Shura and other races. It was also once a branch of the Demon Clan. In the end, after the Demon Realm Passage was sealed, some of the Corpse Bug Clan stayed in the Six Domains and Nine Continents, and gradually evolved into the current Corpse Worm Clan in the long history.
The corpse insect tribe itself is an extremely ugly insect that has evolved, and when it becomes an adult, it looks like a human and not a human, like an insect and not a worm. This clan is not good at hand-to-hand combat, but it is very good at divine thoughts. Although the tribe is scarce, each of them can control thousands of evil insects. Over time, they have taken their place in the Nether Ghost Snake and developed into one of the four major races.
Under all these circumstances, it can be inferred that this race is so powerful, not only is it discriminated against and disgusted because of its appearance, but it is pitiful and sparse, but it can eventually become a strong race in a domain. It's not easy, it's really not easy. Of course, this has something to do with the geography of the underworld. Most of the underworld is dark and damp, with countless miasma swamps, and it is the most notorious place where all kinds of notorious insects can be born. And these disgusting and even fearsome insects are precisely the favorite things of the corpse bug clan. Therefore, the corpse insect clan thrives and survives in the underworld, and it can be regarded as a fish in water. While the strength of other races has more or less regressed, the corpse zerg race is living quite nourishingly.
In the face of the rudeness of the round-faced woman, the black-robed corpse insect man called the Insect Emperor was not at all angry, and said in a sharp and hoarse voice: "Miss Evil Phoenix, please rest assured, the fragment of the ruins I gave to the young lady, hasn't the young lady also checked it? It must be the fragment of the ruins of the Hades Temple." What's more, although our corpse zerg clan is notorious, it is extremely vicious. But after many years, it seems that there has never been a loss of credibility. You and I have been in alliance for tens of thousands of years, and Miss and I have known each other for thousands of years, how have you ever seen me break my promise?" said the Insect Emperor as if he had no emotion, his tone was colder than those women.
"Hmph, it's just that our young lady knows that your corpse insect clan is quite reputable, so she is willing to spend so much time to accompany you to this dirty Styx at this critical juncture. The round-faced woman's face softened slightly: "Insect Emperor, I hope you don't play any tricks this time, otherwise you are very clear about my young lady's temper methods." ”
The Insect Emperor didn't seem to have the slightest emperor shelf, and said coldly and emotionlessly: "Our Corpse Zerg Clan has never broken our promises, but I hope that you Stygian Phoenix Clan will keep your promise and help me get the Nine Phantom Soul Devouring Insect King as soon as you find another relic fragment." You'd better not play any hell with your Stygian Phoenix, although our Corpse Bug Clan is not as good as your Stygian Phoenix, but it's not easy to mess with. ”
"Don't worry, my young lady also said that one is one, and two is two. However, the agreement is limited to ten years, and if you can't find the Nine Ghost Devouring Soul Worm King within ten years, then I'm sorry. The round-faced woman said coldly, "As for the ghost mind, hmph, the Nine Ghost Soul Devouring Insect King is a treasure to you, what's the use of that thing for us? It's ugly and disgusting." "If it weren't for those ugly and disgusting bugs of our corpse bug clan, where would you be so leisurely in the red clouds? The other corpse worm seemed to be a little upset, and sneered at each other.
"That's enough, it's probably within the range of these hundreds of thousands of miles. The Insect Emperor snorted and said, "Everyone be cautious and explore, don't miss any clues." Also, stop arguing and be careful. The Red Clouds are not as simple as everyone thinks. ”
When the Insect Emperor was slightly angry, his subordinates seemed to shut up. But the round-faced woman seemed to be angry, but after her face changed, she closed her mouth tightly. began to explore cautiously.
......
Besides, Lei Dong and his party were also on a long journey, relying on the "Harem", and they arrived at the edge of the red clouds like an endless sea of clouds without danger.
The flying boat slowly suspended and came down, and the group swept down from the flying boat and landed directly to the bottom. Below was a vast void swamp, and a few miles from the zenith were infamous red clouds. Only the thin layer of miles between black and red is a safe passage.
As far as the eye can see, the feeling of black and red intertwined can only be seen for a few miles.
"Childe, Daddy said that when you get here, you can't take a flying boat anymore. Because of the complex terrain, there will be red cloud vortex everywhere. If you don't get involved, you can't say that the ship will be destroyed and people will die. Xiao You's face also became serious, and he looked at the boundless red mist with some solemnity and said: "Fortunately, Daddy searched for a stalactite cave in the Styx River near here in his early years, otherwise it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack in a hurry." ”
