Every secret realm has held secrets since they arrived here, so what secrets does the River of Oblivion hold?
After resting for two more days, and waiting until Chu Yu was fully recovered, they carefully examined the River of Oblivion, which was the place they had entered on their way here.
No matter how strange the River of Oblivion may be, it is indeed the real water of the River of Oblivion. Water from the River of Oblivion in the underworld is not easy to obtain, and Luo Yi must have put in a lot of effort to get such a handful.
It can't just be used as an entry point, can it?
Looking at the struggling spirits on the river, Chu Yu made a plan.
"Yongheng, would you like to make a trip to the River of Oblivion?"
Hua Da secretly glanced at Chu Yu, who was speaking to Yong Heng, but said nothing.
Yong Heng stared nakedly at Chu Yu and said nonchalantly, "Alright, I've lived for so many years, I'm quite an old man now. I've always heard about Wangchuan, and this time I'll personally meet Wangchuan and see if it's as rumored—stripping away bones and distinguishing good from evil!"
Yong Heng walked calmly into the River of Oblivion.
None of them went into the river. They stood on the bank and watched as Yongheng entered the water. The white bones in the river struggled and lunged at him, but Yongheng seemed to be protected by a barrier. His blue clothes were completely unharmed, and his face showed no sign of pain.
Tu Er frowned slightly and murmured, "Could this River of Oblivion be fake? I remember that the handful of water my father retrieved back then was exactly the same as the real River of Oblivion."
"Tu Er, if you're so curious, why don't you go down and try it yourself and see?"
Not to mention Tu Er, even Hua, who said this, was very curious, as he had never heard of anyone crossing the River of Oblivion unscathed.
There are no secrets in the River of Oblivion. The saying that one can peel away bones and distinguish good from evil is not just empty talk. Although the River of Oblivion cannot speak, every single thing you have done will be etched into your soul and cannot be denied.
In the River of Oblivion, there is no such thing as offsetting merits and demerits; a mistake is a mistake, just as even the most renowned general in the human world cannot cross the River of Oblivion.
His act of protecting his country was commendable, but the blood on his hands was undeniably evil.
In the human world, there are various kingdoms and states, but the River of Oblivion from the underworld doesn't care which country you come from.
Could it be that Yongheng has never made a mistake in his hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation?
Before Hua could think it over, Tu Er actually listened to Hua's words and stepped into the River of Oblivion.
"Ouch, it hurts so much!"
Tu Er jumped back up as soon as his feet touched the ground. As he walked toward the flowers, he said angrily, "At this rate, if I were to cross the River of Oblivion, I'd be lucky to survive, or at least be badly injured. I just don't understand what heinous thing I did. This thing is definitely broken!"
Hearing him say that, the others were also curious and wanted to try it. Seeing that they had all gone, Hua was also eager to try it. Taking advantage of Chu Yu's inattention, he secretly walked to the riverbank.
Seeing that they were all in considerable pain, she didn't dare to go in rashly, so she slowly stretched out one foot and cautiously probed into the water.
Chu Yu had actually seen it a long time ago, but seeing that the flower was really interesting, he didn't say anything.
I had already put half my foot in the water, but I didn't feel anything unusual.
Huh?
Why doesn't it hurt at all?
He mustered up a lot of courage and stepped on that foot completely.
Still not feeling any difference between the waters of the River of Oblivion and ordinary rivers, I simply put both feet in the water and even boldly took a few steps further in.
All of Hua’s attention was focused on her feet, so she didn’t notice that Tu Er and the others on the shore were staring at her in shock; it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say they were dumbfounded.
Even Chu Yu was unusually flustered.
"This...is this...merit that appeared on my body?!"
Tu Er's mouth dropped open in surprise, and she couldn't even speak.
Merit is the most mysterious thing in the Six Realms. Some people may do good deeds and accumulate merit in their whole lives and still not be able to accumulate any. Many wise rulers only have a little bit of merit after they die. But even this little bit of merit is enough to be protected by the laws of the Six Realms. For mortals, they don't have to worry for at least three lifetimes.
For cultivators, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Life is long, and a slight carelessness can lead to karmic consequences, making it harder to accumulate merit. But now, the flower in the river is simply a shining little golden man.
Even Wan Ke, who was usually quiet, exclaimed in surprise in a low voice, "This must have saved an entire world!"
The initial surprise and excitement quickly subsided, and as they looked at the flower carefully navigating the River of Oblivion, their eyes were filled with heartache.
She saved more than just one world; she saved the entire Six Realms with her small frame back then, and she deserves all of this.
Having this merit is like having a get-out-of-jail-free card.
Hua took a few steps in the water and found that she felt no discomfort at all. She turned around and waved to Chu Yu in surprise: "Chu Yu, you should try it too. This water doesn't hurt at all."
Chu Yu couldn't bear to go against her wishes and replied loudly, "Okay."
However, as soon as Chu Yu's feet entered the water, he felt a sharp pain, but he seemed not to feel it and walked to Hua's side without changing his expression.
Hua walked a few steps back to meet Chu Yu, her eyes crinkling as she asked, "Chu Yu, does it hurt?"
Chu Yuqian smiled at her: "It doesn't hurt."
Hua didn't notice anything unusual about Chu Yu. After playing in the water for a while, she got bored and pulled Chu Yu out of the water.
Chu Yu lowered his eyes slightly, looking at his calves, which were almost nothing but bones. Afraid that the signs of injury would be noticed, he quickly used magic to cover them up.
Fortunately, the wounds caused by the River of Oblivion are not incurable; with his powerful self-healing ability, he will recover completely in no time.
After everyone had tried, they looked at the water again and saw that Yong Heng was almost on the opposite bank. Everyone had their own thoughts about how Yong Heng was able to cross the River of Oblivion so easily.
Although they didn't know why Chu Yu had Yong Heng cross the River of Oblivion, they figured it was related to the tribulation. They didn't ask any more questions, knowing they would find out soon enough.
