"You actually knew about this?"
A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the Old Demon of the River of Oblivion, then she snorted coldly and said, "You won't get anything out of me!"
"Since you refuse to talk, then die!"
A fierce glint flashed in Li Yao's eyes, and he condensed a ball of raging heavenly fire in his right hand, then struck at the old hag.
The raging fire turned the surrounding sky a fiery red.
"ah……"
The Old Demon of the River of Oblivion struggled desperately, trying to escape.
Unfortunately, she was already seriously injured, and the raging heavenly fire was extremely fierce. In the blink of an eye, the flames engulfed her entire body.
Flames raged, blotting out the sky and the sun.
The Old Demon of the River of Oblivion finally couldn't hold on any longer, and his body collapsed with a thud.
With a series of piercing screams, her twisted and hideous face was gradually engulfed by the raging flames.
"That old hag is finally dead!"
Li Yao breathed a sigh of relief.
Actually, the Old Demon of the River of Oblivion isn't that powerful.
However, this old demon had a geographical advantage and the River of Oblivion as her backing, providing her with an endless stream of vengeful spirits and ghosts, which made her extremely difficult to deal with.
Near where the old witch died, there was a walking stick on the ground.
That's the old witch's cane.
Li Yao reached out and grabbed the cane, then tossed it into his spatial storage.
He also copied the cane and disassembled it.
Divine Soul +666!
Luck Points +666!
Soul of the Wand of Oblivion*1!
So this cane is called the Forgotten River Magic Wand.
This must be a magical artifact refined by the Old Demon of the River of Oblivion using the vengeful spirits and vengeful ghosts in the River of Oblivion.
Unexpectedly, this magical artifact also contains a considerable amount of divine souls and luck points.
"Great, Brother Li, you've finally killed that old monster!"
When Nie Xiaoqian saw that the Old Demon of the Forgotten River had been killed by Li Yao, she rushed over immediately.
"Brother Li, you're truly amazing!"
Yan Chixia walked over and gave Li Yao a thumbs up.
"Young master, if even a mere old hag is so difficult to deal with, it seems that the underworld is not easy to enter!"
Xiao Bai slowly walked over, his face solemn.
"What? Are you scared?"
Li Yao smiled gently.
"With you here, what do I have to be afraid of!"
Xiao Bai smiled at Li Yao, a smile so alluring it could steal one's soul.
Even Li Yao, whose mind was extremely firm, couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.
A fox spirit is a fox spirit; she's born with a seductive look!
Li Yao composed himself, walked straight to the Three Lives Stone, and then placed his hand on it.
Instantly, a notification sound rang in his mind.
As he had expected, the Three Lives Stone was indeed a magical artifact.
He had this guess when he saw the Three Lives Stone.
The Three Lives Stone can reveal the past of everyone in the world, allowing ghosts to see their past and present lives, with the aim of freeing people from attachment.
Seeing the cause and effect of a past life might help them find peace in this life.
It is truly extraordinary that a single stone can store the entire past of all living beings in the Three Realms.
Therefore, Li Yao concluded that the Three Lives Stone must be a magical artifact.
As expected, he was able to replicate the Three Lives Stone.
After copying the Three Lives Stone, he decomposed it.
Divine Soul +9999!
Luck Points +9999!
Soul of Three Life Stones*1!
Li Yao never expected that the Three Lives Stone would contain so many divine souls and luck points.
This was an unexpected bonus!
Li Yao did not take the Three Lives Stone with him.
After all, the Three Lives Stone is an indispensable thing in the underworld of this world. If it is taken away, wouldn't the underworld be in chaos?
Most importantly, this Three Lives Stone only has a function in this world; once it reaches another world, it's just a broken stone.
Therefore, he didn't need to take it with him.
After copying the Three Lives Stone, he turned and walked towards an earthen platform opposite it.
"This must be the Terrace of Longing for Home!"
Li Yao stood in front of the earthen platform and said thoughtfully.
Logically speaking, there should be an old woman named Meng Po selling Meng Po soup next to the Wangxiang Terrace.
Standing on the Terrace of Longing for Home, take one last look at the human world, and then drink the Meng Po soup. You can forget all the troubles and memories of this life, as well as all the love, hate, and grudges, and then you can peacefully reincarnate.
It's a pity that Meng Po is no longer here.
Li Yao estimated that Meng Po was very likely imprisoned by the Ten Demon Kings, just like the Ten Kings of Hell.
It is unknown where the Ten Demon Kings have imprisoned them.
Of the ten demon kings, two have already been eliminated by Li Yao, leaving only eight.
Chapter 431 Not even the river water is spared
The Bridge of Helplessness spans the River of Oblivion, and beneath it lies the River of Oblivion, the dividing line between the Road to the Underworld and the Netherworld.
After defeating the Old Demon of the River of Oblivion, Li Yao and his group headed towards the legendary Bridge of Helplessness.
The Bridge of Helplessness has a bluestone surface, five steps, and runs north-south.
According to the rule of yin on the left and yang on the right, female ghosts walk on the west side of the bridge, and male ghosts walk on the east side.
The Bridge of Helplessness is divided into three levels: upper, middle, and lower. The ghosts of virtuous people can safely cross the upper level, while those who are both virtuous and wicked walk on the middle level.
The ghosts of wicked people can only walk across the lower bridge, and most of them are blocked by the fierce ghosts in the river and dragged into the turbid waves below the bridge, where they are bitten by copper snakes and iron dogs and are forever trapped in the River of Helplessness with no way out.
Li Yao stood on the Bridge of Helplessness, quietly gazing at the River of Oblivion below, lost in thought.
The River of Oblivion is blood-yellow in color, filled with wandering ghosts who cannot be reincarnated, teeming with insects and snakes, and emitting a foul stench.
However, because the Old Demon of the River of Oblivion was dealing with him, he had already summoned many lonely ghosts and spirits from the river.
Nowadays, there are not many wandering ghosts left in the river.
The water of the River of Oblivion has a very special corrosive effect, which can refine vengeful ghosts, making it a rare and precious resource.
Although Li Yao did not intend to practice any evil magic.
However, if used properly, the waters of the River of Oblivion can also bring many benefits.
Therefore, Li Yao decided to collect some water from the River of Oblivion and take it with him.
With a thought, he used his divine sense to create a huge pit at one edge of the ring's space.
He is the ruling god of the ring space, and can change the terrain of any place in the space at will.
Therefore, it was an extremely simple thing for him to create a giant pit through his divine sense.
"Brother Li, what are you looking at?"
Nie Xiaoqian, who was standing to the side, saw Li Yao staring at the disgusting River of Oblivion, frowned, and asked in confusion.
"Hey, Miss Xiaoqian, you mustn't disturb the young master!"
Xiao Bai quickly shook his head to stop him.
She had been following Li Yao for some time and had some understanding of him.
She could tell that Li Yao's expression was very serious and focused, indicating that he was thinking about something important.
Although she didn't know what important matter Li Yao was thinking about, she knew that it was not appropriate to disturb him at this moment.
After creating a giant crater in the space, Li Yao stretched out his right hand, with the ring on his right hand facing the River of Oblivion.
The next moment, a white light shot out from the ring and into the River of Oblivion.
Then, to everyone's astonishment, something miraculous happened.
It was as if the ring possessed a magical power, capable of absorbing the waters of the River of Oblivion.
A huge, blood-yellow column of water surged continuously into the ring from the River of Oblivion.
"What an amazing magical artifact! It can actually absorb the water from the River of Oblivion!"
Yan Chixia stared in astonishment at the ring in Li Yao's hand, filled with envy.
He thought to himself, "If only I had such a magical artifact."
