CHAPTER 1725: CHAPTER 1027. SANZU RIVER (1)

Chapter 1027

Otherwise, Ming Yu would not have stopped her from coming. Mo Jiuli had a piece of soft armor given to her by Yama, making her aura indistinguishable from the people of the Netherworld. Even if the Netherworld King were to stand before her now, he would think she was just an ordinary ghost from the Netherworld...

Mo Jiuli slightly altered her appearance and attire, following Yama’s instructions to resemble a common person in the Netherworld. Indeed, as they say, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. Now, Mo Jiuli’s appearance is considered delicate, entirely like a Netherworld woman...

Lingling also took Jiuli’s Elixir, modifying her appearance similarly. The two of them look just like a mother and daughter pair!

Near Santu City is the Sanzu River, also called the Sanzu Stream. Legend has it that the Sanzu River is the boundary line between the Living World and the Death World. Because the water flow varies based on the actions of the deceased in their lifetime into slow, normal, and rapid, it is called the Sanzu River.

Just like life and death can only be crossed by reincarnation, the method to cross the Sanzu River is singular, and that is the ferry on the Sanzu River. There is no other way. However, you must pay for the ferry. Souls without the fee will not be able to board it, and even if they do, they will be thrown into the Sanzu River by the Boatman.

Those souls who cannot cross the river, driven by their desire for reincarnation, will attempt to wade through the river. However, the river’s water not only lacks buoyancy but also possesses a poison that can corrode souls.

The souls that enter the water will never have the chance to reach the shore again, turning into Water Ghosts within the Sanzu River. The pain of never being able to reincarnate and the bone-chilling cold water makes these Water Ghosts envious of the souls that still hold hope for reincarnation. If a soul falls into the water, they will swarm and drag it down to become a Water Ghost like them...

The Huangquan River, also seen by Mo Jiuli in the Ghost World, could also be called Wangchuan River and is the largest tributary of the Sanzu River. Therefore, it is as terrifying as the Sanzu River, being Ruo River without buoyancy and full of dangers...

Yama told Mo Jiuli that the Sanzu River traverses the entire Netherworld. Regardless of which city in the Netherworld someone wants to enter, they must cross the Sanzu River. Every crossing requires a fee, and the ferry on the Sanzu River, the fee collected by the Boatman, is not money or treasures, but Soul Pearls...

Soul Pearls are the only currency commonly used in both the Ghost World and the Netherworld. They are a great supplement to souls and a necessity frequently required by all souls. Whether living in the Ghost World or the Netherworld, a soul that doesn’t consume Soul Pearls for an extended period will rapidly weaken, and the soul will gradually dissipate. Long-term deprivation will result in Soul Dispersal over time...

Soul Pearls can be gathered in the Ghost Energy Forest of the Ghost World and the Netherworld Energy Forest of the Netherworld, by collecting the corresponding ghost energy and netherworld energy for refinement. The refinement method is simple and innate to almost all soul bodies...

Fortunately, Yama prepared countless Soul Pearls for Mo Jiuli, stored in the Shadow Ghost Ring, allowing Mo Jiuli to be free from worrying about Soul Pearls! However, Yama had warned Mo Jiuli not to let others know she possesses many Soul Pearls, to avoid attracting theft...

Mo Jiuli heeded Yama’s words and took out a hundred Soul Pearls, arriving at the Sanzu Riverbank waiting for the ferry. It is said that the ferry on the Sanzu River doesn’t require queuing or calling out. As long as someone needs to cross, standing by the Sanzu Riverbank and waiting for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the ferry will automatically come by...
