Chapter 963: Taking a Pool of Styx Water
Originally, Fu Qingzhou wanted to walk around the grassland more and get in touch with the beast spirits to improve his strength, but now it seems that it is too late.

However, before going south, he still had things to deal with.

That is...Ayiguli's problem.

As the only confidant he could fully trust in Beiyi, he had to ensure that Aiguli had enough ability to protect herself.

The ancestral spirits can appear and disappear mysteriously, but the servants of the gods must stay in Yandu to check and balance the new Khan and Shaman.

Although she has her status as a backup, and the protection of the Northern Frontier Army who remain in Beiyi, but in this world... only if she is strong enough can she take on the responsibility.

What's more, the Northern Frontier Army is the Northern Frontier Army after all... They can only be considered allies, and not completely Fu Qingzhou's own people.

Before, Hong Ruohai caused a huge explosion outside the Feixiong tribe without any warning, which still left him with some resentment.

He was not sure if Hong Ruohai would do something else once he left this place...

What Zhong Yujie said before also made him understand that Hong Ruohai was not just an easy-going army marshal. He was also a scheming, thoughtful, and completely uncontrollable...head of an aristocratic family.

They do things without even saying hello to you!

He was really worried that one day Hong Ruohai would become unhappy and turn around and massacre all the Northern Barbarians.

"I have been busy in Beiyi for so long to resolve the civil unrest in Yan State and bring peace to the world, not to see rivers of blood."

This is Fu Qingzhou's own judgment.

Only if his identity as the "ancestor spirit" is stable and powerful enough can he ensure that the entire Northern Barbarians will no longer cause chaos or trouble.

So, he decided to get some water from the Styx for Aiguli.

"Hey, old ghost... where are you?"

In the Styx Valley, Fu Qingzhou stood by the Styx and sighed.

He took out the jade bottle that he had prepared long ago, probed it into the River Styx, gurgling it for a long time, and then... he felt something was wrong.

The weight of the bottle in my hand didn't change at all.

When he took out the bottle, he saw that it was empty.

"Can't fit in?"

Fu Qingzhou's pupils shrank.

He stretched out his hands and scooped up a handful of water from the Styx...

The water that was scooped out disappeared like smoke the moment it left the River Styx.

"Ah this..." Fu Qingzhou was dumbfounded.

How can this be done?

Can’t the water of the Styx be separated from the Styx?
That's true... If this thing could be taken out, the Styx Valley would have flourished and had many students all over the world. It's just that this "death energy" is too hard to find. Apart from a battlefield littered with corpses, only the Styx Valley has such a strong death energy.

But there are only so many people in the world, where can we find a battlefield filled with dead bodies every day?

After thinking about it, Fu Qingzhou opened his third eye and looked at the Styx carefully.

Since the Styx also flowed out of the "Eye" of Heaven back then, can we see...

Unexpectedly, when he opened his eyes, the water in the River Styx began to riot!
They were already turbulent and violent, but at this moment they seemed to be mad, roaring wildly!

The water from the Styx crashed towards the shore, creating huge waves ten feet high, and hit Fu Qingzhou!

"No?! What are you doing?!"

Fu Qingzhou was shocked, his third eye closed, and then he suddenly pulled back, retreating dozens of feet in a flash.

The huge wave hit the shore heavily, but did not break the rocks or stir up water mist. It just dissipated silently.

Fu Qingzhou frowned and walked back to the shore.

The water of the River Styx returned to its original state, no longer raging, and no traces were left on the shore.

"What's going on..." Fu Qingzhou squatted beside the River Styx and reached out to dig a few times.

Of course, he was not afraid of the effect of the Styx water washing away his soul, and he even felt very comfortable in it. But seeing such a huge wave coming down...

"Wait, it's okay to be patted, right?"

He scratched his head. "This wave can't kill me, and the river water has no side effects on me. Why should I be afraid? Why not try to see what effect my Sky Eye has on it? Who knows, there might be some unexpected gains."

Having made the decision, Fu Qingzhou no longer hesitated and opened his third eye again!

As expected, the water of the Styx began to riot again, and once again condensed into huge waves of dozens of feet high, hitting Fu Qingzhou!
This time he didn't hide, but stood firmly in place.

wow——

A huge wave hit him instantly, but Fu Qingzhou didn't feel any pain at all. Instead... it felt like a breeze blowing on his face, quite comfortable?
Not only that, his eyes were unexpectedly cool and refreshed, as if he had been given eye drops!
"This……"

Before Fu Qingzhou had time to be surprised or experience the mystery of it, his third eye suddenly widened!
Then, a picture suddenly appeared in my mind!
"Hurry! Come up quickly! Each person can only stay for one stick of incense at most! Your body won't be able to bear it if you exceed that time! Don't be greedy!"

"There is still a chance. As long as my realm is improved, there will be a chance!"

"Hurry up and get ashore!"

In the picture, a group of people wearing black robes and exuding deathly aura were shouting in deep voices. These people were obviously ghost cultivators.

And the one they were calling out to...

They are a group of people soaking in water.

To be precise, it is the people who are soaking in the water of the River Styx.

But that scene was not the Styx Valley.

It was a small mountain stream with a creek flowing down the mountain, but the mountain wall not far away seemed to have been dug open by humans, and the water of the River Styx filled with a strong smell of death flowed out of it, and was drained into the creek through a small canal dug by humans.

Those people were soaking in such a stream, sitting cross-legged with painful expressions, deathly energy swirling around their bodies, and it was obvious that they were practicing ghost magic!
"This……"

Fu Qingzhou frowned.

Where and when did this happen?
But soon, he knew.

"Everyone, come out quickly. The war in the north is intense and we need you!"

"Kill more people and make more achievements! If you kill more people and gain more deadly energy, you will be able to break through and come back here to practice!"

"Go show Hong Ruohai and the Northern Frontier Army what you are capable of!"

At the shouts of those ghost masters, those who were soaking in the stream reluctantly stood up...

"Oh my god!" Fu Qingzhou was shocked: "The Xishuo Army actually intercepted a part of the Styx?! Is this the reason why they can cultivate a large number of ghost cultivators in a short period of time?!"

There was a buzzing sound in his mind, his third eye closed, and the scene he saw disappeared.

"I see……"

After a brief moment of shock, Fu Qingzhou quickly calmed down: "This is a good thing. At least we know the secret of how the Xishuo Army cultivates ghost cultivators... As long as we can destroy their place, it will be difficult for them to mass-produce ghost cultivators again."

"and……"

He smiled, and his third eye cracked slightly.

A ray of light came out from the slit of the eye and landed on the stone wall not far away.

The light did not reflect any images, but it cast a shimmering light on the water, but that light was so dead that it made people's hearts flutter.

Afterwards, the Heavenly Eye closed, but the water light remained on the stone wall and never disappeared!

The huge wave just now left a hint of death in the Eye of Heaven!
"With this..."

Fu Qingzhou smiled slightly: "Ayiguli can also practice ghost magic."
