Volume 2: The Great Tribulation of the Lich Chapter 390: Five Ghost Emperors and Ten Yama Palaces (Part 1)
Soon after Dizang entered Cuiyun Palace and absorbed the authority of the underground, a mysterious light appeared in front of the gate of the underworld, and the vast breath of earth virtue filled the void. There was the elegant fragrance of orchids, and auspicious clouds shining with mist. There were teams of gods and men with dragon and tiger auras, and pairs of fairies with graceful bodies. There were cranes dancing in clusters, deer singing in the clouds, and divine flags floating in the wind.
Zhen Yuanzi is attending the party today in his best attire. He is wearing a purple gold crown, a worry-free crane cloak, sandals on his feet, and a silk ribbon around his waist. He has the appearance of a boy and the face of a beauty, with three whiskers floating under his chin and crow feathers folded on his temples.
Just this image will make anyone who sees it feel close to it.
The team of earthly immortals was so powerful that before they even entered the underworld, the pure Taoist energy and human yang energy had already caused all the souls to scatter. If the immortals had not tried hard to restrain their own aura, these souls would have died again.
On top of Taoshan Mountain, Shentu and Yulei, who were stationed at the Ghost Gate, were well prepared.
They used their authority to build an exclusive passage for the participating earthly immortals, leading directly to the Yinshan Fengdu Palace. This way, they would not disturb the ghosts in the netherworld. Otherwise, if more than 10,000 earthly immortals were allowed to walk the reincarnation path, the underworld would have to go through a lot of chaos before it could be stable.
When Meng Po, who was standing on the Naihe Bridge, saw Zhen Yuanzi leading more than 10,000 earthly immortals into the netherworld, she couldn't help but mutter, "What a big scene."
Zhen Yuanzi in the passage felt something in his heart. He bowed to You Meng with a gentle expression, and then ignored the embarrassed look on Grandma Meng's face and continued to lead the earth immortals to walk slowly.
"We are waiting to welcome the ancestor."
In front of the Fengdu Palace, ghosts and immortals from various departments of the underworld, led by the Four Judges, lined up to welcome them. Among them, the Black and White Impermanence of the Soul-Catching Department and the Ox-Head and Horse-Face of the Arresting Department were the most enthusiastic, because they were Zhen Yuanzi's subordinates as early as the Yinshan Immortal Department period.
"Okay, okay."
Zhen Yuanzi's face was flushed. When he saw that the Emperor of Fengdu, the Patriarch of the Styx, and the Lord of the City of Wrongful Death had come to the front of the hall to greet them, he also hurried forward. They greeted each other and exchanged a few polite words. Then, they entered the hall to discuss matters amid the cheers of the ghost immortals and earth immortals.
"Why don't you see Mingyu?"
After sitting down, Zhen Yuanzi waited for a long time but didn't see Mingyu, so he couldn't help but ask.
Minghe winked at Zhen Yuanzi, and then pointed to the empty seat in the middle. The meaning was self-evident.
Zhen Yuanzi slightly opened his eyes and nodded silently to show that he understood. He sat down quietly, his eyes on his nose, his nose on his mouth, and his mouth on his heart, looking like he was in a trance.
Then, Minghe and Guizu started whispering again, and both of them showed strange smiles from time to time.
Upon seeing this, the King of Fengdu standing by twitched his mouth slightly, pretending he didn't hear or see anything. He didn't dare to say anything more about what happened between the master and that person.
Pingxin Hall.
"Master Hou Tu, Master Ling Zun, I have made up my mind."
In the main hall, there was a god who bowed forward and saluted. He was tall and strong, with a dignified face. The iron-blooded murderous aura between his brows could hardly be concealed. He was wearing black armor and holding a halberd in both hands. He was truly a mighty and unparalleled warrior.
"I will hand over the Wu Clan of Northern Juluzhou to Chiyou, Xiangliu, Houji and others to manage. I, Xingtian, will accept the position of the King of the Ten Palaces of the Netherworld."
Mingyu immediately felt relieved, because he was afraid that Xing Tian would stick to his guns and fight to the death with the Beiming demon clan.
Hou Tu spoke in a gentle voice , "It's great that you can figure it out. The Netherworld has many rules. The position of the Chakravartin needs to distinguish good from evil, discuss merits and demerits, determine their levels, and then send them to the four continents for reincarnation. He is the closest to the six realms and is in charge of the reincarnation of all living beings. You must not lose your composure because of personal feelings."
Hou Tu explained to Xing Tian the authority of the Wheel-Turning King, and seeing that his eyes were becoming brighter and brighter, she could not help but repeatedly warn him not to act recklessly by abusing his power.
Hearing this, Xing Tian immediately showed an honest smile, "Lord Hou Tu, don't you know me yet? I'm not Chi You. Everyone in the Wu Clan knows that I, Xing Tian, am a decent and honest Wu!"
Mingyu couldn't help but smile when he heard this. His fate with the Witch Clan started with Xing Tian. How could he not know how "kind" Xing Tian was?
After the Wu clan had made all the arrangements, Zhen Yuanzi also arrived for the meeting. Mingyu nodded to Hou Tu and prepared to leave.
Seeing Mingyu standing up, Xing Tian hurriedly called out, "Hey~ Lord Lingzun, wait a minute. Since the position of the Chakravartin is so important, can I find some reliable people to assist me? This way, I can adapt to the authority of the underworld more quickly and maintain the stability of the six realms!"
Xing Tian emphasized the words “reliable person” very seriously.
Mingyu looked at Hou Tu, who smiled and nodded. He then said, "There are many ghosts and immortals in the underworld, but since you are new here, you may not be able to convince them. I will allow you to lead one of them, guard the Ten Palaces, and maintain the operation of the Six Paths of Reincarnation."
"Thank you, Lord Hou Tu and Lord Ling Zun!"
Xing Tian was overjoyed. He struck his armor with his halberd, making a clanging sound.
"Go and prepare , and come to take up your post as soon as possible."
Hou Tu shook her head, spread out her hands, and gently closed them. Xing Tian's figure sank and disappeared into the hall.
"Let's go, they are waiting!"
The two of them went out together and headed towards Yinshan.
"I've been waiting to see the queen."
Seeing Hou Tu and Ming Yu finally arrived, the four people who had been waiting quietly in the hall smiled at each other and stood up to greet them.
Hou Tu moved lightly with lotus steps and appeared in front of the main seat. She said softly, "Everyone, please take a seat."
After everyone sat down, an official from the underworld came to serve tea, and placed one or two spiritual fruits and three or five rare treasures. Then they left.
Fengdu Emperor spoke first: "At this conference, the first thing we need to discuss is the authority of the underworld. Over the past 100 Yuanhui, the authority of the underworld has been continuously improved, and the positions of the Five Ghost Emperors and the Ten Kings of Hell have been completely consolidated. We need to find suitable candidates to take over as soon as possible to maintain the normal operation of the reincarnation cycle."
As the lord of the City of Unjust Death, Ghost Ancestor can basically be considered a sacred being born in the netherworld, and he naturally desires a position in the underworld.
"Your Majesty, I know a thing or two about the Ten Kings of Hell, but the Netherworld now has the Queen in charge of reincarnation, and Your Majesty in charge of the world, so how did the Five Directions Ghost Emperors come into being?"
The Emperor of Fengdu explained: "As the underworld corresponding to the primitive land, the underworld is as big as the land. Previously, the underworld had no master, and the functions of the underworld were incomplete. It was indeed impossible to completely control all aspects of the underworld. With the destiny of the underworld, only my throne could be born.
Now that the Empress has completed her reincarnation cycle and the consciousness of the earth has awakened, the fortune of the netherworld has greatly increased. In the battle with the demon world a few days ago, our side won again. The two paths of heaven and earth swallowed up the foundation of the demon world, which led to the birth of the Five Directions Ghost Emperor. "
After hearing this, Ghost Ancestor finally understood the whole story, so he asked again, "Then what are the powers of the Five Ghost Emperors?"
The Emperor of Fengdu replied: "I am only under the Empress and me. I can form my own team, pacify the underworld, and guard the five directions of the underworld."
When the Ghost Ancestor heard this, his heart was even more heated. Although he was already the Lord of the City of Unjust Death, this position was not the position of heaven and earth. In terms of power and luck, he was naturally not as good as the Five Ghost Emperors.
Immediately, the Ghost Ancestor stepped out and bowed three times to Hou Tu, "I am a humble subordinate, but I am willing to be the Ghost Emperor, guarding our underworld territory and maintaining the six reincarnations!"
Hou Tu's face was calm, and she agreed softly : "Yes!"
The words are spoken and the law is followed, and the earth shakes.
A scroll of legal decrees flew out from Hou Tu's sleeve, and the Emperor of Fengdu took out the imperial seal and stamped it on it.
To the north of the underworld, a figure of karma descended in response to the imperial edict and took on the body of the ancestor of ghosts.
boom--
With the alignment of karma and the blessing of luck, the image of the Ghost Ancestor changed. He was seen wearing a blue crown with a horizontal sky pattern on his head, a green feather fur coat, a green ribbon and a dragon head belt around his waist, a jade seal in one hand and the imperial sword in the other.
Boundless pressure vented from inside to outside, and the long river of the Great Dao appeared. Based on this, Ghost Ancestor's cultivation base improved further. His immortal spirit rose three inches, and he officially ascended to the 31st level of Daluo!
