"Let's go!"
Lu Huaming's face changed when he saw this. He waved his hand and summoned a white flying boat. Then, he pulled Xie Yuxin onto the boat.
The white flying boat was also very fast. It could keep up with Dan Yangzi and others.
Seeing this, Shen Luo also took out the Pure Yang Sword Embryo and attached it to his body. He turned into a red sword light and flew forward. He easily caught up with Dan Yangzi and the others and kept pace with them.
The ghosts in the clouds roared angrily and spat out black gas into the black cloud under their feet. However, the speed of the black cloud seemed to be limited.
The distance between the two slowly increased.
Seeing this, Shen Luo secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
"It's good that the three of you are fine. How did you get here?" Temporarily out of danger, Lu Huaming took the opportunity to ask Dan Yangzi and others about the situation.
"We were sent here by the array. We couldn't find Fellow Lu. There was no one to lead us. We had to wander around blindly. Unfortunately, we encountered these ghosts and were chased all the way here. However, it's also thanks to this bunch of bastards that we've finally gathered together. "Dan Yangzi said.
Hearing this, Lu Huaming understood that Dan Yangzi and others knew nothing about this place. He was quite disappointed.
"Fellow Lu, what should we do now?" Dan Yangzi immediately asked.
"Let's get rid of those ghosts first!" Lu Huaming said decisively.
Shen Luo also thought so. He was about to use the Pure Yang Sword Art to speed up the flying sword.
"Master, be careful. There are ghosts in front of us!" The ghost's voice sounded in his mind again.
"Everyone, be careful. There is a situation in front." Shen Luo thought quickly and immediately said.
The others were startled. When they were about to ask, a shrill scream came from the front. A black shadow shot out from the darkness in front of them. It was a black ghost bird.
These ghost birds were four or five feet long. Their whole body was black. Their two big eyes flashed with blood-red light. The most peculiar thing was their beaks, which were almost as long as their bodies. They were very sharp like swords.
At this moment, these ghost birds folded their wings and straightened their bodies. They were like giant black arrows, shooting toward them at lightning speed.
Their field of vision was very narrow in this place. Fortunately, with Shen Luo's reminder, they were prepared and immediately scattered in all directions, avoiding the attacks of these giant birds in time.
Only Lu Huaming's flying boat was a little bigger. With Xie Yuxin on it, he couldn't dodge and was about to be pierced by the sharp beak of a black ghost bird.
A green thunderbolt shot out and struck the black ghost bird's body. With a loud bang, the bird was sent flying. It was Shen Luo, who was nearby, who had made a timely move.
Lu Huaming was relieved. Although his white boat had a certain defensive power, it may not be able to block the attack of the black ghost bird's sharp beak....
"Don't entangle with these feathered beasts... use speed to get rid of them!" He nodded gratefully at Shen Luo and shouted as he controlled the flying boat to avoid the oncoming ghost birds.
In fact, Lu Huaming didn't need to say anything. The others knew what to do.
These ghost birds were nothing. The real danger was the ghosts behind them. Once they were entangled, the ghosts behind them would catch up. Then, the six of them would be dead.
Each of them urged their speed to the extreme. They flew forward in the flock of ghost birds. They had no choice but to use their magic tools to kill some ghost birds.
However, these ghost birds were too many. They seemed to be deliberately entangled with Shen Luo and the others. Although they tried their best to move forward, their speed was still greatly reduced.
The black clouds behind them were approaching quickly. They were about to catch up with them.
At this moment, an ancient stone bridge appeared in front of them. It looked quite wide. The bridge deck was very broken, but the whole thing was still intact. It meandered to the other side of the river. They couldn't see the end.
"Get on the bridge!" Lu Huaming's eyes moved. He shouted and took the lead to jump on the stone bridge.
Seeing this, the others also flew on the bridge.
As soon as the group got on the bridge, the ghosts in the black clouds and the black ghost birds immediately stopped. They looked around in a daze and issued bursts of angry roars. But, they didn't look at the people on the bridge. It was as if they were suddenly blind.
However, those ghosts didn't disperse. Instead, they surrounded the bridge. They were either smelling or listening with their ears. They were all looking for the traces of the group.
"What's the matter with these ghosts? Can't they see us? "Xie Yuxin said in surprise.
Shen Luo looked at the stone bridge below. He tried to spread his spirit sense to explore the stone bridge. However, the bridge was full of an invisible restrictive force. His spirit sense couldn't leave his body.
"This stone bridge seems a little strange." He raised his eyebrows and said.
Dan Yangzi and the others also quickly noticed the restrictive force on the bridge, and a look of surprise appeared on their faces.
Only Lu Huaming's face didn't change. Instead, he looked relieved.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, you seem to know the origin of this bridge?" Dan Yangzi looked at Lu Huaming and asked.
"I heard Master say that there is a river in the Netherworld that connects the two worlds of Yin and Yang. There is a Netherstone Bridge above the Netherworld River. It is built with a special ore, the Netherstone, that is produced in the gap between Yin and Yang. Only souls pass through the bridge. There are no ghosts. So, the ghosts below can't find us." Lu Huaming said.
"What do you mean only souls pass through the bridge?" Xie Yuxin asked in confusion.
"Fellow Daoist Xie doesn't know. After a person dies, the souls of the living still have the Yang Qi of the mortal world. It takes a certain amount of time to wash it clean. This Netherstone has the effect of absorbing Yang Qi and turning it into Yin Qi. However, there are many ferocious creatures lurking in the Nether River. In order to prevent those creatures from attacking the souls of those who have just died, the Netherworld Kingdom has set up a restriction on this bridge. It will automatically conceal the aura of those who carry Yang energy. As cultivators like us all carry Yang energy, when we step onto this bridge, it will conceal our aura, so the ghosts below won't be able to discover us. I just wanted to give it a try. I didn't expect it to be true. "Lu Huaming said.
"So that's how it is!" Xie Yuxin looked at the stone bridge under him in surprise.
Shen Luo was also stunned. Although he felt that the stone bridge was strange, he didn't expect it to have such an origin.
"According to Fellow Daoist Lu, this Netherstone Bridge crosses the two worlds of Yin and Yang. Is the other side of the bridge the world of the living?" Spiritual Master Chi Yang looked at the front of the stone bridge and asked with a doubtful face. It seemed that he didn't believe Lu Huaming's words.
It was shrouded in a vast white fog. He couldn't see the end. He didn't know what was hidden in it.
"I can guarantee this. Master didn't tell me about the Netherworld River in detail. I hope so." Lu Huaming hesitated and said.
Several people heard this and looked at each other. They didn't speak for a while.
They had encountered too many strange things today. The appearance of this stone bridge was strange. Although Lu Huaming's words were clear and reasonable, no one knew whether it was true or not.
"In any case, there are countless ghosts under the bridge. If we retreat, we will die. If we go forward, we will have a chance of survival. I believe that Brother Lu's judgment is not wrong." Shen Luo said.
"Shen Daoyou's words are reasonable. We should continue to move forward. Even if there is danger ahead, we six people will work together. I believe we can deal with it." Xie Yuxin said.
Dan Yangzi and Spiritual Master Chi Shou exchanged glances. They seemed to be still hesitating.
"Let's go." Ge Tianqing, who had been silent, calmly said. He took the lead and walked forward.
Shen Luo, Lu Huaming, and Xie Yuxin also stepped forward.
Dan Yangzi and Spiritual Master Chi Shou saw this and had to follow.
