Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 1199: Netherworld Blood Ship

~6 minute read · 1,416 words

Celestial boats continuously descended, and more and more demon clan forces gathered.

This mountain range witnessed fierce conflicts even in broad daylight.

A strong figure from the Sa Niang Clan carried a massive Original Stone, arriving aboard a celestial boat.

Like the Ice and Fire Wolf Clan, they intended to target Luo Li immediately upon arrival.

But Nangong Liuyun’s powerful intervention scared the Sa Niang Clan away.

That Supreme Ancestor from the Original Stone.

Originally an Eternal Realm Strong Person, but due to withered life force and nearing the end of his lifespan, his realm fell to the Half-Step Eternity Realm.

In his current state, he naturally did not wish to battle Nangong Liuyun.

Such an act would be counterproductive.

The Sa Niang Clan could attack other forces instead.

Rumble...

The fighting grew more intense.

By dusk on the fifteenth, all battles finally ceased.

But at least half of the cultivators, amid accidental mishaps, could only withdraw in dismay.

"What are they competing for, it’s just marching to death, these people are truly crazy..."

Inside the carriage.

Mu Qing poured a cup of tea for Ye Yun, unable to suppress a smile as she spoke.

"Spirit Abyss Ghost River is known to be a one-way trip, yet people still flock to it like moths to a flame, it’s truly intriguing!"

Ye Yun chuckled indifferently.

The night grew increasingly dark.

In the distant mist, along with the sound of water being trampled, one by one, figures dressed in wide blood robes suddenly emerged.

"The Blood God Sect people have arrived!"

Someone exclaimed.

The Blood God Sect individuals, each with lowered heads, wore white ghost masks, their broad robes covering them entirely, rendering them indistinguishable.

The aura from these people appeared extremely eerie, ghostly cold, with no visible cultivation base.

The cultivators around immediately became tense.

Over a hundred blood-robed people slowly emerged from the mist, standing before everyone.

"Are you... all intending to enter the Spirit Abyss Ghost River?"

The leading blood-robed man spoke, his voice low and hoarse from beneath the mask, sending chills down spines.

"Yes!"

Someone mustered the courage to shout loudly.

"Do you—— have the Blood Spirit Ganoderma and Linglong Lamp?"

The blood-robed man asked coldly.

An old man in a black robe raised his head proudly, "Those who remain are all extraordinarily capable, naturally possessing these two items!"

"Good!

Spirit Abyss Ghost River will fulfill any request...

Each of your wishes, once aboard the netherworld blood ship, shall be granted!"

The blood-robed man finished speaking deeply, then slowly turned away.

All present blood-robed men descended from mid-air onto the river, kneeling on its surface.

The night grew more dark and eerie.

A full moon hung high, casting its bright moonlight gently down.

All the blood-robed men knelt, hands together, muttering continuously, seemingly chanting some ancient spell.

The surrounding cultivators looked at each other, unsure of what was occurring, and could only wait patiently.

As the blood-robed men began their chant, dense fog slowly advanced along the river.

After an incense stick’s duration.

All the blood-robed men were thoroughly enveloped by the mist.

The chanting ceased.

Swish swish...

Accompanied by the sound of water, red paper boats emerged through the fog, floating on the surface, drifting automatically from afar.

Each red paper boat was small, only able to accommodate two or three people.

The red paper boats, pointed at both ends, thin as a cicada’s wing, red as fresh blood, exuded an eerie feeling.

"These are the netherworld blood ships!"

A cultivator shouted loudly, incredibly excited.

Swish swish swish!

Strong figures from both human and demon clans rose in succession, hovering above the river, watching the approaching netherworld blood ships, ready to board at any moment.

"Sister, come with me."

Nangong Liuyun grabbed Luo Li, his figure flickering slightly, already floating above the river.

At this moment.

The number of people above the river reached several thousand.

But most were elderly figures nearing the end of their lifespan.

And the disciples from their own clan (sect) they brought with them are still staying in the distant mountains.

These people will not enter the Spirit Abyss Ghost River.

But they will stay here, waiting for their clan’s ancestor to return.

The netherworld blood ship drifted forward, continuously forming a patch, its heavy blood light pierced through the mist and shot straight to the sky.

"The paper boat is so thin, I wonder if it’ll sink once I step on it!"

An elder hesitated as he spoke.

"Damn it, where are all the people from the Blood God Sect? Not even one to ask questions? Should we board the ship or not now?"

An ancestor couldn’t hide the doubt in his heart and shouted loudly.

"Let’s go, board the ship! We’re at the critical moment now, and we have no choice!"

A burly elder laughed disapprovingly and was the first to land on the netherworld blood ship.

Swoosh!

As he descended and landed on the ship, the small netherworld blood ship quivered slightly, seemingly at risk of capsizing at any moment.

The burly elder looked horrified, wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, and exclaimed, "Good heavens, I’ve controlled my body so much, yet the blood ship still shakes so violently?!"

After saying this,

The small netherworld blood ship broke through the water and swayed towards the mist.

In mid-air.

An elder blinked his eyes, watching the netherworld blood ship disappear into the mist, then looked at the crowd and whispered, "Good heavens, did you see that? The river water is red, could it all be blood?"

Nangong Liuyun happened to be beside him, chuckled lightly at his words, "If the netherworld blood ship doesn’t sail on the Blood River, how could it match its name?"

"That makes sense."

The elder laughed heartily, moved his body, and descended onto another netherworld blood ship.

"Let’s go, board the ship..." At this moment, the others no longer hesitated and landed one after another.

Nangong Liuyun pulled Luo Li and landed on a netherworld blood ship as well.

After landing, the netherworld blood ship began to shake, then slowly traveled into the mist.

Deep in the void.

Seeing this eerie scene, Ye Yun showed a rather interested expression on his face.

"Mu Qing, do you want to go down with me and take a look?"

Ye Yun smiled gently.

Before Mu Qing could react, there was a fluctuation in the void, and the two of them suddenly disappeared from the carriage.

In the next moment,

Ye Yun and Mu Qing appeared on a netherworld blood ship as well.

Buzz buzz...

The netherworld blood ship shook gently, the blood water beneath the hull sounded with a splashing noise.

"Master, this ghost qi is so strong."

Feeling the blood scent in the air, Mu Qing smiled bitterly.

While speaking,

The netherworld blood ship had peacefully drifted into the mist.

Ye Yun sat at the bow of the ship, beside him was a small table, with tea cups and the equipment for brewing tea all ready.

"Brew the tea!"

Ye Yun instructed softly.

"Okay, master!"

Responding, Mu Qing knelt beside him, respectfully boiling water and making tea for Ye Yun.

A flash of light suddenly crossed Mu Qing’s eyes.

Mu Qing was startled.

"Don’t worry, I have disguised our appearances..."

Ye Yun’s voice sounded by her ear.

"Understood, master."

Mu Qing smiled lightly, her expression becoming relaxed and composed.

Master did this, of course, to avoid being seen by the Sect Leader and affecting the training.

"Mu Qing, this lucky girl, actually gets to go training with the master, boo hoo..."

On the carriage.

The Big Black Cat lay on the edge of the carriage, motionless as it gazed downwards, looking extremely dejected.

The Big Black Horse grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, laughed and said, "Little black boy, have you gotten addicted to training? Do you want to join in the fun at the Spirit Abyss Ghost River too?"

"Of course I do! I dream about it!"

The Big Black Cat quickly responded.

A faint voice echoed in the sky above the carriage without warning.

Ye Yun: "Then go dream about it..."

Thud!

The Big Black Cat’s body suddenly tilted, falling onto the carriage, eyes closed, and began to sleep deeply.
