I'll Consecrate You

Chapter 749: I'll Consecrate You

The combination of the peach tree and Nüwa's power had completely protected the Women's Kingdom.

But this kind of "protection" was not entirely a good thing.

Because none of the Women's Kingdom's citizens could truly "die."

At first glance, being unable to die sounded like a good thing, but that was not the case.

Forming a perfect closed loop.

That was not how it worked, or at least, not entirely.

The Mountain and Sea Realm's Underworld had been established jointly by the Heavenly Court and the Buddhist sect. It contained the Ten Yama Kings as well as Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha.

But before the Underworld existed to manage the Six Paths of Reincarnation, wouldn't the world have been thrown into chaos?

In truth, the Underworld's authority only covered part of the Mountain and Sea Realm.

After a person died, their divine soul would likewise dissipate.
