Chapter 357
Dragon Girl
"Goodbye, little one!!"
On the treasure ship, Hongxian waved her hand vigorously, her eyes filled with reluctance.
The child of the Longbo clan chief stood on his father's shoulders, waving repeatedly at the red thread, with large tears even streaming from his eyes.
Although the two children had only known each other for a short time, they had already developed a deep bond and become good friends.
Unfortunately, the time for parting had finally come.
Watching the giant Longbo disappear into the distance, Zhou Sheng put the conch shell in his hand into the Immortal Stone Cave, his gaze deep.
"Danshan, I have a feeling they might not go straight home next..."
Yao Taifeng's eyes flashed, and she said.
Before Zhou Sheng could respond, Yu Zhensheng spoke up.
"You're right, Longbo people. They repay kindness and avenge wrongs. That treasure ship is probably going to be in big trouble soon."
Yu Tianheng sneered, "The leader of the Treasure Boat Society is very mysterious. I heard that his cultivation is also extremely high. However, in front of an enraged Dragon Giant, I'm afraid he can't protect his subordinates."
This is the Dark Sea; you never know what you might provoke.
Any greed can lead to death.
"But all of that is irrelevant to us now. We're about to reach the City of the Dead, and our show won't be easy to put on."
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned solemn.
With the help of the giant Longbo, they have successfully reached the sea area indicated in the playbook, and the real test is about to begin.
That Bodhisattva is a far more dangerous being than the giant Longbo.
"The play has already begun."
Zhou Sheng smiled slightly, his words carrying a profound meaning. He took out the play invitation and continued sailing according to the instructions on it, but deliberately slowed down a bit.
After walking for about an hour, the group saw an island appear ahead.
The island was shrouded in a chilling aura and blue mist, making it difficult to see clearly even with the divine eye. However, Zhou Sheng, who had reached the sixth level of cultivation and was able to separate his primordial spirit from his body, immediately sensed a trace of the Netherworld Dao and the power of life and death on this island.
"arrive."
Zhou Sheng steered his boat toward the island and crashed into the blue mist, immediately feeling as if he were being watched by countless eyes.
It was as if countless ghosts and gods were hiding in the mist, all wanting to devour him alive.
If it weren't for the Pure Yang Divine Sword protecting me and the invisible sword intent temporarily intimidating the ghosts and gods, the enemies would probably have already swarmed in.
"Where did this sword immortal come from, daring to trespass on the Underworld Island? Quickly state your name!"
From within the blue mist, a fierce voice demanded answers.
Zhou Sheng took out the performance invitation and announced loudly, "Zhou Sheng, the head of the Zhou Family Troupe, has come to perform a yin opera at the invitation of the Bodhisattva. Please allow me to enter."
"So he was just an opera singer, how come his sword intent is so fierce..."
Within the blue mist, ghosts and spirits muttered, but the mist quickly dissipated, allowing Zhou Sheng's ship to sail smoothly and successfully land on the island.
A ghost general clad in precious armor appeared, holding a large spear, majestic and solemn, never smiling.
"There are rules for entering the city, please bear with us."
The ghost general handed over several strips of black cloth with mysterious scriptures written on them, seemingly in Sanskrit, yet exuding an indescribable eeriness.
Everyone looked at Zhou Sheng.
Although the team had two Grandmasters, Yu Zhensheng and Yu Tianheng, everyone tacitly regarded Zhou Sheng as their backbone.
The Longbo Giant incident further validated Zhou Sheng's brilliant foresight, making Yu Tianheng and Tan Sheng trust him even more.
This is no ordinary strip of cloth. If it is used to cover their eyes, it may obscure their senses and perception. If the other party suddenly attacks, they may be caught off guard and suffer a great loss.
If they don't accept it, the other party won't let them into the city.
The decision is up to Zhou Sheng. "When in Rome, do as the Romans do. We entrust our safety to the general."
Zhou Sheng smiled slightly, stepped forward to take the strip of cloth, and blindfolded himself without hesitation. The next moment, his consciousness and perception were indeed plunged into darkness, obscured by a mysterious force.
For those who practice spiritual cultivation, this feeling is extremely unpleasant, as if they have suddenly become blind, which can create a great sense of insecurity.
However, seeing that Zhou Sheng did as he was told, Yu Zhensheng and the others did not hesitate and followed suit.
Only then did the ghost general secretly breathe a sigh of relief and make a hand gesture, signaling his men to withdraw from the ambush.
This group is too powerful; they have to be on guard.
"Gentlemen, please follow me."
The ghost general stepped forward to lead the way, but the group found it to be a maze of twists and turns, seemingly intentionally designed to make them forget the route, which was extremely complicated.
Finally, he stepped into the water with a splash.
"Please do not panic. Relax and sink into the water. The envoy will then guide you into the City of the Unjustly Dead."
"Hmph, you guys are really troublesome. I've been to the King of Hell's palace, and I didn't have this much trouble!"
Yu Tianheng sneered and made a sarcastic remark.
A city of the unjustly dead, not only hidden on an island in the vast sea of the underworld, but even the way to enter the island and the city is so complicated and strange. I really don't know how many unspeakable things are hidden in that city.
The ghost general could only pretend not to hear and turn to take his leave.
Next, everyone felt themselves sinking, but strangely, even without using underwater breath-holding techniques, their breathing was not affected at all.
It was as if this body of water had been enchanted, allowing even mortals to breathe freely.
Time passed slowly, and as they continued to sink, they gradually felt the water temperature getting colder and the yin energy getting heavier.
Just as Yu Tianheng was getting impatient, a soft laugh suddenly rang in everyone's ears.
That was a woman's laughter, clear and crisp like a bell, with a hint of charm, melodious and lively like an underwater spirit, completely unlike any ordinary sound.
Whoosh!
The undercurrent was stirring.
Zhou Sheng heard the laughter getting closer and closer, and finally patted him on the back.
But when he turned around, the other person had already disappeared, like a mermaid in the water.
"The famous Zhou Family Troupe, Boss Long, is indeed as handsome and good-looking as the rumors say."
A soft hand gently wiped Zhou Sheng's face, as if taking advantage of him.
The next moment, a head gently rested on Zhou Sheng's shoulder from behind, and seaweed-like black hair brushed against his neck, causing a slight itch.
"No wonder that harlot Nian Nu Jiao was so infatuated with you and couldn't forget you..."
She whispered in Zhou Sheng's ear, her red lips lightly brushing against his earlobe, as if intentionally teasing him.
Yu Zhensheng gently shook his head.
You can't deny getting old. In the past, when the Zhao family troupe went out, he was always the handsome and dashing one who enjoyed this treatment. What female demons and devils weren't all captivated by him?
Now, coming out with his apprentice, he's actually been relegated to a supporting role.
Zhou Sheng frowned, raised his hand to grab the other person, and his fingers touched the other person's arm, which was slippery like snake scales.
The other person moved like an eel, their laughter alluring.
"Hehe, my lord, don't be in such a hurry. I'll submit to you, won't I?"
Clang!
The sound of swords being drawn rang out, but it was not the Pure Yang Divine Sword, but the Wind and Thunder Swords.
Yao Taifeng could no longer bear it. She used her sword energy to sever the blindfold, her sword-like eyebrows sharp and her phoenix eyes cold as she shouted a rebuke.
"What a shameless slut!"
"Watch me wield my sword, and I'll skin you alive!" (End of Chapter)
