Chapter 052
Huangquan Island is one of the more famous islands in the North Sea Islands.
Unlike other islands, Huangquan Island belongs to the Unchanging Island, but this island is filled with a deadly atmosphere.
The earth is khaki. Although there are no traces of dryness and cracks, it gives people a feeling of the earth's desolation.The trees were withered, without leaves, and looked a little shriveled.Similarly, there are no flowers, plants, birds and insects, and even those buildings look like they have been weathered for thousands of years.
The spirit boat that Su Anran took arrived at Huangquan Island without any surprises.
"Huangquan Island is the strangest one in the North Sea Islands. You have to be careful after nightfall." Probably because there was no surprise or danger, the driver in charge of taking Su Anran to Huangquan Island hesitated for a while, and then opened his mouth to remind him. , "The buildings you see now seem to be hundreds of years old. In fact, the longest ones are only one or two years old, and the ones that are more than two years old are basically turned into sandstorms."
Su Anran was taken aback: "Huangquan Island rejects the outside world so much?"
"Almost." The old driver glanced at Su Anran with a strange expression, "Huangquan Island has been explored very clearly, and it will become quite dangerous after nightfall. There are often monks missing, and no one knows why. And The buildings built here will be severely corroded after a few days, so no one comes now... You are the third group of people who want to come to Huangquan Island recently."
"The third batch?" Su Anran keenly noticed the key words the other party said.
"En." The driver didn't feel that there was anything wrong, so he continued, "Just about two months ago, someone also landed on Huangquan Island, it seems to be a middle-aged man... Then yesterday, there was a A man and a woman also came to Huangquan Island, if they didn't die last night, maybe you can still meet them."
Su Anran smiled and didn't answer.
If she knew about Huang Quan Mingbi's situation before, Su Anran might still feel that there might be a chance to meet each other.
But after knowing the situation of Huang Quan Mingbi, Su Anran didn't think so.
Leaving aside the person two months ago, but the man and woman who landed on Huangquan Island yesterday, Su Anran is sure that the other party must be heading towards the Dead Sea of Huangquan.And to be able to explore the way to enter the Dead Sea of Huangquan so accurately, it is obvious that these two people are also supported by powerful monks who can freely enter and exit the Dead Sea of Huangquan.
"I don't want to encounter them." Su Anran watched the old driver drive away in a small spirit boat, shook her head and laughed, "Who knows if it's an enemy or a friend, or get the blue soul stone quickly and go back."
Walking on Huangquan Island, Su Anran realized that there was really no sign of life on this island, and even the land had completely lost its vitality.
The seemingly hard ground of the island, when you step on it, a shallow pit is directly stepped on the ground, and the geology can even be felt to be obviously softened.
This is just Su Anran's normal walking strength. If it is more forceful, it will not be as simple as a shallow pit. The entire ground will even collapse in a large area, and yellow sand and dust will rise up all over the sky.
Feeling this scene, Su Anran was quite puzzled. This island has not sunk yet?
But after all, he didn't come here to conduct geological research or research on Huangquan Island, so after Su Anran determined that Huangquan Island was not too dangerous, he began to look for old flags on the island as Zen Master Longhua said before. ferry.
Huangquan Island is not too big, and certainly not too small.
It was when Su Anran found the back of Huangquan Island that she found the only ferry with the dilapidated flag that Master Longhua said.
It was a flag with a black border on a white background.
There should have been some words written on the flag, but at this time it was blurred, and there were even some holes on it, whether it was burned by fire or eaten by insects.
The flagpole supporting the flag seems to be some kind of metal object, but at this time it looks rusty, and it seems that it will break if touched.
Just looking at the flag, Su Anran felt a burst of panic, and even became a little short of breath.
This made him understand that this shabby-looking flag was far more dangerous and terrifying than what he had seen.
At least, it's not something that he can touch in his current state, maybe it's something that was planted by some Dao-based power or a great power who entered the sea of suffering.After all, magic weapons of the flag type appear most often in various fairy cultures on the earth, and they are often the most vicious and terrifying things.
Su Anran stood by the ferry, then took out the Huangquan document and threw it into the slightly turbid sea water.
A series of gurgling bubbles emerged from the sea water.
Soon, a large number of white waves surged from the bottom of the water.And with the churning of the white waves, the surrounding seawater began to gradually turn yellow, as if some kind of yellow dye had been smudged in the clear water.And as the sea water began to turn yellow, a fishy and sweet smell quickly permeated the air. Just as Su Anran smelled this smell, she felt an inexplicable chill, and her body temperature dropped rapidly. Then, even the limbs gradually became stiff.
Thick fog began to form on the sea.
In Su Anran's ears, he began to hear the sound of rushing sea water.
A yellow sea wave flowed out from the depths of the dense fog, like a rising tide of sea water, rushing directly towards the ferry, completely connecting with the yellowed sea water.
An aura of desolation and desolation suddenly rushed over.
Standing at the ferry, Su Anran felt an eerie sense of disillusionment, as if death is the final destination of all things.
He found that his heartbeat seemed to have stopped, his skin turned an iron-blue color similar to that of a dead person, the white air he exhaled even contained a touch of frost, all vitality was completely compressed to the minimum, and the whole person looked like Like a living dead.
In the dense fog, the shadow of a ferry boat emerged.
A ferryman in a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat was holding his oars, and slowly steered the ferry towards the ferry.
As the other party approached, Su Anran realized that the ferry boat looked quite dilapidated, as if it would sink at any moment.It's just quite strange that there are many holes in the broken ship, but there is no sea water injected, and the inside of the ferry is unbelievably dry.
"The one who guides you from the Yellow Springs, the ferryman from the Dead Sea." When the ferry docked, the ferryman finally spoke, "One Huangquan Mingcoin boards the boat, and one Huangquan Mingcoin goes ashore."
The ferryman's voice seemed very ethereal and uncertain, and it sounded a bit creepy.
But Su Anran didn't think much about it.
He understands the rules.
After all, Zen Master Longhua has already made it quite clear.
So Su Anran quickly handed over a Ming coin to the other party.
"Get on board."
The ethereal and hollow voice sounded again.
Su Anran stepped onto the ferry.
But in the next second, his expression suddenly changed.
Because he felt that his true energy had completely disappeared at this moment, and his whole body became extraordinarily heavy, as if he was carrying a mountain on his back. Feel quite strenuous.
This is no longer as simple as becoming an ordinary person.
Rather, life and death are completely out of his control.
"Don't worry, don't panic." The ferryman said again, "You are eligible to take the boat after you pay the fare. When you land later, you pay another fare, and you are eligible to go ashore. .”
"What if there is no other fare to pay?" Su Anran tried it, and found that he could speak. He seemed to be restricted only by his ability to move, but he didn't have any problems with communication. limit.
It's just that as soon as he said that, even he himself was startled.
Because his voice also became ethereal and hollow.
"Hey, hey, hey." After hearing Su Anran's words, the ferryman did suddenly laugh, and then slowly raised his head to look at Su Anran.
I checked my eyes, it's the right person...
Shit!
The moment Su Anran and the ferryman looked at each other, the panic in their hearts reached the limit in an instant.
Because the ferryman in front of him looks exactly like him!
"If you can't pay the boat fare, then you have to stay." The ferryman said with a smile, "The one who receives the Yellow Springs is the ferryman of the Dead Sea. One Huangquan Mingcoin goes on the boat, and one Huangquan Mingcoin goes ashore... If you buy one, you will trade it with your life."
Su Anran's heart twitched suddenly.
Fortunately, I have prepared two, otherwise I am afraid that I will really have to change my life.
After picking up Su Anran on board, the ferryman pushed the oars, and the ferry soon wobbled into the dense fog again.
In the dense fog, Su Anran felt the panic palpitations enveloped again.
Although he can't move, and even his perception is closed, he is no different from ordinary people.But it doesn't mean that he is blind, so he can still see countless black shadows moving with the boat under the yellowed water, and the aura that makes him feel palpitations and panic is emanating from these black shadows on the bottom of the sea.
"what are these?"
"Don't panic, don't panic, one question, one Huangquan Ming coin."
Su Anran decided to shut up.
Don't worry, don't panic, don't be afraid, now I'm in a panic.
After getting used to the life of mastering power, Su Anran felt unable to adapt to the feeling of suddenly losing power completely and returning to an ordinary person again.
Fortunately, although he felt flustered along the way, at least the ferryman was quite professional and did not ask for a raise in the middle of the journey.
I don't know how long I walked through the thick fog.
When the dense fog dissipated again, Su Anran saw the ferry docking at a ferry again.
"The one who guides the Yellow Springs, the ferryman of the Dead Sea. One Huangquan Ming coin boards the boat, and one Huang Quan Ming coin goes ashore."
The ethereal, hollow, and chilly voice sounded again.
Then Su Anran discovered that her hands had regained the ability to move, but the heaviness in her body had not completely disappeared.So he knew that as long as he got on this small boat, he might lose all his mobility, but he didn't think too much about it, and took out the second Huangquan Ming coin given to him by Zen Master Longhua, Then it was handed to the ferryman.
The next moment, Su Anran saw the ferryman with the same face as her own, and his facial features quickly became blurred.And his own body quickly regained its ability to move, and the feeling of being restrained and suppressed completely disappeared.
Su Anran hurriedly jumped onto the ferry, unwilling to stay on this ferry for a moment.
And almost after Su Anran got on the ferry, he only felt a blur in front of his eyes, and when he turned around, the thick fog behind him disappeared. It was as if the ferryman and the ferry had never appeared. Enron's hallucinations.
Su Anran clenched her fist subconsciously, and then found that there was an extra wooden sign on her right hand at some point - this wooden sign was exactly the same as the Huangquan receiving card that Su Anran had thrown into the sea before - at this moment Suddenly, he had a clear realization in his heart: I am afraid that if you want to leave Huangquan Dead Sea, you can only leave in this way.And according to what the ferryman said, he might have to find a way to get two Huangquan Mingcoins in the secret realm of the Dead Sea of Huangquan.
Chapter 053
Huangquan Dead Sea is not a secret place...
In fact, Su Anran didn't know whether Huangquan Dead Sea was a secret world or a remnant world.
The biggest feature of the secret world is that the way to enter and open it is not fixed, illusory, and whether it can be entered depends on luck; while the remnant world comes from the landmass of the old era left over from the collapse of the previous two eras. Big and small.
The Dead Sea of Huangquan is not a secret realm, but if you say it is a secret realm, it has some unknown fixed way of entering and exiting; but if you want to say it is a broken realm, this land plate does not look incomplete at all.
Su Anran was a little confused.
But if you think about it carefully, he didn't come here to do research. Does it have anything to do with him?
Absolutely not.
It is more important to find the blue soul stone.
After thinking about this, Su Anran walked away from the ferry.
And as he got farther and farther away from the ferry, he also found that his body was gradually recovering - his bluish-gray skin gradually returned to blood color, his heart that was almost at a standstill also resumed beating, and the breath of life was coming from his body. Start recovery.
Su Anran let out a breath.
Finally, it was no longer a frosty mist.
He looked back at the ferry, and there was a dilapidated flag that was exactly the same as Huangquan Island, which also gave people a fierce and terrifying feeling.
Su Anran didn't pay any attention to it, but she silently remembered this place. After all, if she wanted to leave Huangquan Dead Sea in the future, she might still have to summon the ferryman from here, but she didn't know where to find these two Huangquan coins.
……
Huangquan Dead Sea gave Su Anran the feeling of desolation and death.
However, there is no dense fog covering the sky, and the surrounding situation is very clear at a glance - after coming out of the ferry, the surrounding area is a plain terrain, and there is no forest, only a dead wood forest not far away, So overall the field of view is quite wide.Su Anran can even see that at the end of the field of vision, there is a huge mountain range in front of it, as if dividing the entire landmass.
Above the mountains, there are dark and low clouds.
There was no phenomenon of lightning and thunder, but when Su Anran looked at the sky, she still felt a very palpitating feeling, as if her soul was about to be swallowed.
At this moment, he realized that that mountain range might only be able to be climbed by those who are strong in the Soul Condensation Realm.The monks before entering the Soul Condensation Realm can only carry out activities on the land on this side of the mountain—in other words, that is the place of the Dead Sea in the Yellow Springs. The monks of different realms will have a fixed range of activities. Anyone who wants to If you want to go beyond this range of activities, then you must be mentally prepared for the worst results.
Su Anran quickly looked away.
He was very clear about his goal, which was to find the blue soul stone and then leave.
But now, there are more ideas about getting two Huangquan Mingcoins.
Since ancient times, there are only rumors in the mysterious world that people often enter the Dead Sea of Huangquan inexplicably here on Jiandao in the North Sea, but no one has ever heard of how to leave the Dead Sea of Huangquan.It seems that everyone who left followed a certain tacit agreement and never mentioned the matter of the Underworld and the Dead Sea—but now that Su Anran thinks about it, I am afraid that is not the case, but those monks who have entered the Underworld and the Dead Sea for no reason. Most of the final results must be They all died in this secret realm.
Su Anran walked on this land.
The land of Huangquan Dead Sea is not khaki, but a red color like blood. There is a faint smell of blood everywhere in the air. It seems that these bloody smells come from this land.It's just that the land of Huangquan Dead Sea is obviously much stronger than that of Huangquan Island, and it doesn't feel like it has been completely weathered and corroded.
So when Su Anran walked on this land, she didn't have to worry about stepping on it if she didn't pay attention.
only……
"Whoosh-"
An extremely slight piercing sound suddenly sounded!
Su Anran suddenly turned sideways to dodge.
Suddenly, I only felt a hot tingling sensation on my cheek.
This piercing sound pierced his skin!
Su Anran was shocked.
Although he hasn't practiced any foreigner's horizontal exercises, but with his current state, it is difficult for even a monk in the Yunling Realm to hurt him, let alone a monk under the Yunling Realm, I am afraid that even his fur Can't hurt.And unless the low-grade magic weapon is a type that specifically strengthens the attack ability, it is also impossible to cause any damage to him.
