Also known as the Ruoshui River, it is located in the middle of the Netherworld Canyon, with a width of about tens of miles, but no one knows its specific depth.
The Netherworld Canyon is divided into east, west, north and south. If you look down from a high altitude, the entire Netherworld Canyon looks like a ? shape.
The Ruoshui River is like a horizontal line from left to right in the middle of a ?-shape. When Ye Shuluo and the others entered the Netherworld Canyon, they saw a straight road in front of them, which can be regarded as a vertical line in the ?-shape.
One horizontally and one vertically divides the entire?-shaped canyon into four parts.
After Ye Shuluo and the others entered the canyon, they turned to the right part, which is the lower right corner of the entire ? shape, where they met the Six Divine Chickens of the Netherworld and the mythical beast Qilin.
Now if they want to rush to the upper right corner of the ? shape, they must cross the Ruoshui River.
The biggest characteristic of Ruoshuihe is that no matter what kind of mythical beast or powerful master he is, he can't use his true energy and techniques within Ruoshuihe's range, let alone fly over.
Even Ye Xiuluo didn't know why. If he wanted to cross the Ruoshui River, he could only wade or take a boat, but there were obviously no boats here.
At this time, Ye Xiuluo and the others had arrived at the Ruoshui River.
Looking at the endless river, Mo Ranxue reminded: Brother Ye, there is no way.
"We have to do it ourselves. There is a bamboo forest nearby. Let's get some bamboo and build a bamboo raft to go over there." Ye Xiuluo said.
Du Dou was a little confused, "Brother, I don't know how deep this river is. Do we have to go across it?"
Ye Xiuluo nodded, "If you want to continue hunting divine beasts and obtain spiritual stones, you can only go to the other side of the river."
"Brother Ye, didn't you say there are many mythical beasts here? Why do you have to go there?" Mo Ranxue asked.
Ye Xiuluo explained patiently again.
"With our current strength, we can only hunt two kinds of divine beasts in the entire Netherworld Canyon, one is the Netherworld Divine Chicken, and the other is the Nine-clawed Divine Frog, and the Nine-clawed Divine Frog is on the other side of the river, so we must go there.
"
Du Dou suddenly waved his hand and said, "I don't think so. There's no need to go to that trouble. We can just go back and kill Netherworld Six and Six Divine Chickens."
Ye Xiuluo smiled bitterly, "You think too simply. We killed one before and got nine spiritual stones. Even if we go back and kill the others, no more spiritual stones will be dropped."
Mo Ranxue asked in confusion: Brother Ye, why is this?
Ye Xiuluo reorganized his words to explain more clearly.
"You can understand it this way. The Six Divine Chickens of the Netherworld are a whole. It makes no difference whether you kill one, two, or all of them. They will only drop nine spiritual stones."
"So that's it." Mo Ranxue nodded and said, "It seems we can only go to the other side of the river. Let's go, Brother Du, let's cut bamboo and build bamboo rafts."
Du Dou responded, and then the three of them found a bamboo forest. They were busy for a while, and it was not until an hour later that the bamboo raft was built.
Du Dou put the bamboo raft in the water, and after the three of them stood on it, they rowed towards the other side.
Ruoshui River is very wide, but Ye Shura is not very clear about how deep it is.
At this time, there was no wind or waves on the vast river, and even some ordinary small fish and shrimps could not be seen. It was peaceful and a bit strange.
The three of them stood on the not-wide bamboo raft and rowed slowly towards the other side.
When they arrived at the center of the Ruoshui River, they suddenly felt that the bamboo raft under their feet jolted violently as if it had hit something in the river, and then returned to normal.
Du Dou almost stumbled into the water. Not long after, there was another sound of rushing water under the water, but looking at it, nothing unusual could be seen on the river.
Du Dou timidly tugged at Ye Xiuluo, "Senior brother, there won't be any water ghosts down here!"
Ye Xiuluo rolled his eyes at him and teased: "Maybe, maybe this water ghost is a woman and she can have a ghostly relationship with you."
Hearing Ye Xiuluo's teasing, Mo Ranxue covered her mouth and snickered.
Just then.
A gurgling sound suddenly reached the ears of the three of them, and a string of bubbles appeared on the river surface like a boiling pot.
Mo Ranxue and Du Dou both felt uneasy in their hearts at the same time, and Ye Shura's brows also wrinkled slightly.
The sound of water flowing from the surface of the river and the bubbles emerging had not stopped yet, and there was a rustling sound coming from deeper water.
Du Dou shouted in fear: There are really water ghosts coming to break up our bamboo raft?
Mo Ranxue's heart immediately tightened, but she still comforted her: "Brother Du, please stop talking nonsense."
Not to mention that Ye Xiuluo didn't believe in ghosts, she never believed that ghosts existed in this world.
After Mo Ranxue finished speaking, she looked at Ye Xiuluo, presumably hoping to get some answers from him.
Ye Xiuluo stared at the river, feeling a little confused.
He had gone back and forth to this Ruoshui River countless times, and he had never seen anything like this before.
It was true that we had never encountered ferocious beasts in the water back then, but never as strangely as now.
Just when the three of them were confused, suddenly, a giant black-scaled python rushed out of the water.
The entire upper body stood on the water, facing Ye Shuluo and the others with his head held high, almost scaring Du Dou to the point of peeing on the spot.
This python is also so big, its exposed body on the water is probably several feet long.
It is simply a giant black dragon without claws, and the black scales on its body are shining, which seems to mean an ominous omen.
The black-scaled giant python only paused for a moment, then suddenly plunged into the water. After entering the water, the black-scaled giant python swam like a gust of wind towards the bamboo raft of Ye Shuluo and the others.
The expressions of Ye Xiuluo and the others suddenly changed. This was on the Ruoshui River, and they couldn't display their cultivation strength. If anything went wrong, they would become the prey of the black-scaled python.
Now that things have happened, they naturally will not just sit there and die on the bamboo raft. The three of them paddle the raft desperately, trying to get rid of the giant black-scaled python.
But this is obviously impossible. The speed at which they slide the bamboo raft cannot be compared with the speed of the black-scaled python in the water.
Suddenly, the feet of the three people shook suddenly, and the entire bamboo raft flew up from the water.
It turned out that the giant black-scaled python used its head as big as a carriage to lift the bamboo raft up.
The bamboo raft was lifted more than ten meters into the air by the giant python, and then landed heavily on the water.
If Ye Xiuluo hadn't firmly maintained his balance on the bamboo raft, the bamboo raft would have capsized long ago.
Even so, the three of them stood on the bamboo raft and swayed back and forth for a while before they managed to stabilize themselves.
Du Doudou said incoherently: "This, the bamboo in Netherworld Canyon is quite strong."
After the giant black-scaled python pushed against the bamboo raft, its head plunged into the water again. It was obvious at a glance that it was about to launch a second attack.
Ruoshui River was dark and turbid, and the three of them couldn't see clearly what was going on under the water. They could only hear the sound of the giant thing emerging from the water.
"Bang~"? The bamboo raft was pushed up for the second time and flew up.
Ye Xiuluo and the other two tried their best to keep the balance of the bamboo raft, but this time, they were not so lucky.
"Plop~"
With several continuous sound of falling into the water, Ye Shuluo and the three of them fell into the water one after another.
Fortunately, the three of them knew how to swim and were not seriously injured, but the danger at this time was far from over.
At this moment, a question suddenly flashed through Ye Shura's mind: How could this black-scaled python suddenly appear in the Ruoshui River?
As far as he knew, the black-scaled python should be in the dense forest on the other side of the river.
The mythical beast in Netherworld Canyon will not leave its lair easily. Why does it appear here?
But the black-scaled giant python obviously wouldn't give him much time to think. The giant python turned over, opened its bloody mouth, and swam straight towards Mo Ranxue, who had fallen into the water.
Ye Xiuluo and Du Dou wanted to save Mo Ranxue, but they couldn't use their true energy and moved slowly in the water, so it was too late.
However, Mo Ranxue's reaction was very quick. Before she knew it, she had already drawn out the sword she had been wearing.
Although Mo Ranxue is usually gentle and pleasant, like a lady who has not left the boudoir, don't forget that she is the eldest disciple of Shenshui Palace.
Shenshui Palace has always been famous in the Zhongzhou region for its swordsmanship. Even though it is unable to use its true energy now, Mo Ranxue's swordsmanship is not weak.
With a sharp sword technique, he stabbed the black-scaled python into its bloody mouth at lightning speed.
The sword pierced the mouth of the black-scaled giant python. The giant python was in pain and suddenly shook its head, sending Mo Ranxue and the sword flying far away.
"Plop~"
Mo Ranxue was thrown away and her body fell into the water again.
Although Ye Xiuluo and the other three were unable to use their true energy and skills, any divine beasts could not use them in Ruoshui River either. They could only rely on their physical size.
But even so, it may not be easy for Ye Shuluo and the others to deal with this black-scaled python.
Ye Xiuluo hurriedly swam to the place where Mo Ranxue fell, but after Mo Ranxue's body fell into the water, he struggled briefly for a few times and then suddenly disappeared.
