Chapter 832: River of Forgetfulness (2)
Editor: Atlas Studios
Then, Ling Zhuzi took out a heavy gourd.
This gourd was the favorite artifact of an old drunkard.
It could only be used to store liquid, but the internal capacity was extremely large. Even if all the water in the five lakes and three rivers was absorbed, it would no longer survive.
Opening the gourd, a yellowish-brown liquid with a dense pungent smell surged out.
The liquid poured into the gravel and soil below. At first, they did not feel anything. A moment later, a magical thing happened.
The moisture on the soil quickly faded.
The rocks and soil that had just been shattered actually grew visibly as if they were alive.
The soil turned into rocks, the gravel became larger, and the large rocks grew together again, becoming a whole.
It did not take long for the shattered rocks and soil that had just fallen from the stone wall to completely grow together. It even completely fused with the stone wall around the Bottomless Pit.
This water was called Living Rock Water.
Using the science of his previous life to explain, this was probably an extremely high concentration of mineral acid solution, which was the so-called “rock growth liquid”.
Just dripping this liquid on the ground would grow something like stalagmites.
Coupled with a large amount of earth attribute spiritual qi, earth attribute immortal qi, and the help of special refinement methods, this gourd of Living Rock Water was created.
In just a moment, the pile of rubble and soil turned into a true rock layer.
With this solid rock layer that was more than ten thousand feet thick, there was no need to worry about the weight-bearing effect.
Then, Ling Zhuzi began to fly up while casually brandishing its spear.
On his waist was the gourd.
A large amount of Living Rock Water flowed out and mixed with the falling rubble.
He flew up for thousands of kilometers before exhausting the Living Rock Water in the gourd.
Just like that, he created a bottom for the Bottomless Pit.
Then, he increased his speed and flew out of the Bottomless Pit.
On the endless ice above, many people were already waiting.
After Ling Zhuzi came out, they began to take turns pouring out their storage artifacts.
The storage artifacts that touched the Profound-rank and Earth-rank were used as construction vehicles.
A large number of miscellaneous rocks and soil were continuously transported over and poured into the Bottomless Pit.
In the middle of this Bottomless Pit, there was already a cave that was thousands of miles long that was completely blocked. No matter how much they invested, it would only become more and more blocked. They did not have to worry that the pressure would cause the Bottomless Pit to be reconnected.
Those high-grade storage artifacts could often easily store a mountain.
Due to the fact that this place was in the black sea, it was a little troublesome to run back to the continent to move the materials. The plate that Jiang Li had sent flying earlier had also been left behind as the most convenient material.
The expert casually crushed the mountain-like rock and poured it into the Bottomless Pit.
With many experts as porters, the progress of such a large-scale project was extremely fast.
It only took half a month to fill up the small half of the Bottomless Pit above.
As such, it would not be easy to come out from below!
Even if it was impossible to stop a true immortal, if he wanted to come out, he had to break through the ground that was tens of thousands of miles long. It would still take some time.
However, just as everyone heaved a sigh of relief and planned to set up a seal here, the white dog, Shanting, who had been in Qiu Shui’s arms, suddenly raised its head.
Shanting’s ears had already been returned to it.
This former companion divine beast of Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha jumped off Qiu Shui’s arms and landed on the ground.
It lay on the ground and pressed its ear close to the ground.
A moment later, it suddenly barked!
…
In the Nine Nether Earth, Jiang Li had defeated his martial artist self in his dream, as well as his Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Soul Formation, and Earth Immortal self.
His only feeling was that he was really too strong.
So this was how other cultivators felt when facing him?
What a troublesome enemy.
Due to some statuses, the Human Emperor’s successor’s defense surpassed his attack ability in many cases.
It was naturally very satisfying to fight the enemy.
However, when the enemy was him, it was really quite troublesome to deal with.
As mentioned before, along the way, Jiang Li rarely had the chance to let his imagination run wild.
His rapidly growing strength allowed him to do as he pleased when facing most choices.
He did not go against his conscience, so he did not have many inner demons.
Compared to the inner demon barrier that others faced, he could slightly suppress himself every time.
After beating him up, he successfully passed the trial.
He patted the Yellow Spring Realm Monument at the side. This place was already his.
Touching this stone monument, he realized that the longest path to the Yellow Spring could allow people to walk for 9,000 years without sleep or rest.
At the very least, he only needed 49 steps to pass!
The difference was a little too ridiculous.
In the future, if anyone offended him, he would throw them here and let them suffer.
Then, Jiang Li stood at the end of the Yellow Spring Road and looked at a large river in front of him, feeling a little troubled.
How could he pass through?
This was undoubtedly the legendary River of Forgetfulness.
However, compared to the Yellow Spring Water that he wanted to soak in, this River of Forgetfulness was really not worthy of praise.
Even Jiang Li, who had obtained the Nine Nether inheritance and possessed noble dragon blood, would only feel disdain when he saw it.
This was because the river water inside was too dirty!
The water of the River of Forgetfulness was blood-yellow in color. If one had to describe it, it was like the color of yellow pus mixed with blood when a huge pustule was squeezed out.
Indeed, it was extremely hardcore.
As soon as he approached, he felt a stench.
Looking inside, the surging river water would roll out a pile of shattered bones from time to time.
How wasteful was it to create such a dirty river?
He thought for a moment before raising his hand and throwing a wooden dragon into it.
The current Human Emperor could casually awaken orthodox dragons with higher dragon blood concentration than pure blood.
There was no problem in overturning the mountains and rivers, creating clouds and rain.
The river ahead churned violently, but to an orthodox dragon, as long as it was water, no matter if it was seawater, river water, boiling water, or ice water, no amount of churning could cause them any trouble.
The wooden dragon entered the river and swam towards the opposite shore.
At first, it swam quite freely.
However, soon, the wooden dragon began to struggle in the water.
It looked like it was in extreme pain. It rolled around as if it was about to drown.
The aura on its body also weakened greatly.
There were clearly other methods in the water.
Jiang Li stretched out his hand and beckoned, and the wooden dragon was pulled back to the shore.
Looking at the wooden dragon, it was already covered in countless holes of various sizes.
It was to the extent that it could kill a person with trypophobia on the spot.
Not only that, but something was crawling in and out of the holes.
On a closer look, what entered the hole were all kinds of strange insects and long snakes!
The river water was actually covered in these dangerous and ugly insects.
The scales of the Wood Dragon that Jiang Li had awakened were not inferior to true dragon scales in terms of defense.
Even so, its body was actually filled with parasites in such a short period of time.
From the looks of it, its body had already been eaten up. It could not be saved.
When he saw this scene, Jiang Li did not care if his body’s defense could withstand it.
He would definitely not touch the river water.
Otherwise, not to mention whether there would be any problems with his body, the mental demons that had just been eliminated in the trial would definitely grow crazily.
Due to the rules of heaven and earth, he clearly could not fly over. There must be another way to cross the river.
Looking left and right, he followed the river and searched upstream.
Didn’t they say that there was a Bridge of Helplessness specially used to cross the river?
