Black Emperor, Yellow Heaven

A colossal bronze tree, a dragon holding fire in its mouth.

In the next instant, the world turned upside down, and the Void Transposition, Su Che found himself in the Mount Zhong Association.

"Is everything taken care of?"

Zhongyuan stood with his hands behind his back.

"Yes, the reincarnation of the Yin-Yang Dharma King has been retrieved."

Su Che was a little confused as to why the reincarnation of the Yin-Yang Dharma King had turned out this way. Normally speaking, reincarnation and possession are extremely dangerous things; one wrong move and everything would be lost.

Originally, it was required to devote one's entire Primordial Spirit to it, but the Yin-Yang Dharma King actually split his own Primordial Spirit in two.

This move truly baffled Su Che.

However, this old Divine Ability incredibly powerful, and perhaps this is his brilliant idea. It's normal that I, limited by my own perspective, can't understand it.

"Although the Five Directions and Five Emperors all perished back then, they still had many friends and acquaintances, and left behind a great deal of knowledge and tradition. Just as geese leave their shadows and people leave their voices, the Yin-Yang Dharma King can be considered a disciple of the Black Emperor Zhi Guangji."

So that's how it all started. Su Che had vaguely heard that the Yin-Yang Dharma King had a close relationship with the Mystic Gate sect, and some people even said that he was a disciple of the Mysterious Capital Palace. Now, he had obtained the most accurate information here in Zhongyuan.

This old ghost was originally a descendant of the Northern Black Emperor.

"When they failed to establish the Heavenly Court, these people were rejected by the Principle of this world and were destined to achieve nothing in their lives. That's why there's the saying, ' Myriad Tribulations Keep Yin Spirits from Sainthood.' To achieve Longevity Realm, they must be reincarnated to have a chance."

Zhongyuan looked at Su Che.

"In the future, when you need to coordinate with Yin-Yang, you might as well consult him more often."

After a moment of contemplation, he continued, "After all, the Divine Ability of the Secret Register of the Yin Heaven of Zhoujue was created by the Black Emperor and the Yellow Heaven Sect Daoist together back then."

The Secret Register of the Yin Heaven of Zhoujue was created by the Northern Black Emperor and the Yellow Heaven Sect Dao Leader? Su Che was slightly shocked.

He originally thought that this Cultivation Method, as the world said, was created by the Yellow Heaven Sect for his disciples who had become Ghost Cultivator, but now it seems there is another reason.

However, thinking about it that way, my grandmaster was truly impressive back then. He was able to create such Cultivation Method together with the Northern Black Emperor.

"After we established the Heavenly Court, there was a proposal to set up the Netherworld. The Black Emperor and the Yellow Heaven Sect Daoist Master were in charge of this matter at the time. This Secret Register of the Yin Heaven of Zhoujue is one of them. In addition, there are five other manuals, which are collectively known as the ' General Compendium of the Six Heavenly Hells.' Of course, this is the lineage of the Black Emperor. As for you Yellow Heaven Sect Daoists, it is combined with five other Daoist techniques to form the 'Supreme Yellow Heaven Sect Six Dragons Return the Sun True Method.'"

I never imagined such a thing could happen.

Su Che has gained a new understanding of the relationships between the powerful figures of High Antiquity times. Now, as long as Teacher Yulizi recovers and he returns to the Yellow Heaven Sect, these High Antiquity secrets may be easily resolved.

"Was it smooth this time? Where did you find the reincarnation of the Yin-Yang Dharma King?"

"Something did happen. We discovered a cave beneath Jiankang City and encountered a Daoist priest from the Jade Scenery Sect inside. However, the Yin-Yang Dharma King's methods were too advanced, so..."

"Um."

Zhongyuan nodded.

You've worked hard this time.

He flicked his wrist, and a seed slowly emerged into the air.

"This is..."

"I went to Nether Capital and found a seed of Ruomu. You can plant it in the Azure Emperor's Treasure Garden as your reward for this trip."

Ruomu Seed?

Su Che had naturally heard of the seven innate Spirit Root. It was said that Ruomu was located in Nether Capital below the Nine Netherworlds, and was known for suppressing all ghosts. It was on par with Fusang, where the sun resided, and Jianmu, which connected Jianmu and earth.

"Younger generation..."

"If I were to re-establish the Heavenly Court in the future, I intend to have you and the Yin-Yang Dharma King manage the affairs of the Netherworld. Do your best."

Zhongyuan gestured for Su Che to sit down in his seat.

He reached out, causing tremors in the Void.

Yuqiang, Qingqiu, Wu Zhiqi, Plain Maiden, Gushe She gradually appeared on the seat, but the Yin-Yang Dharma King was nowhere to be seen.

So this is how we were all captured and brought here by the Zhongyuan.

Su Che roughly understood that he was no longer on the same level as the others in front of him. Or rather, he was now a more core member in Zhongyuan's plan.

Zhongyuan touched the Feng Boar mask on his face; he was quite thoughtful.

"Gushe, Yuqiang, Feng Boar, Qingqiu, Wu Zhiqi, in seven days, you need to gather together to kill someone. As for who it is, we will find out then."

Zhongyuan, seated high above, began to speak.

"This matter is of great importance, and I hope everyone will make thorough preparations."

kill?

Su Che sat below, listening silently, completely oblivious to the complicated look the Little Fox was giving him.

"Forgive my boldness, but may I ask, sir, what is this man's strength?" Wu Zhiqi looked at Zhongyuan above and asked, "Would killing him bring about other consequences?"

Now that he had the Azure Emperor's Treasure Garden in hand, this Water Monkey had become much more confident and dared to speak to Zhongyuan like that.

"This person comes from Buddhist School." As Zhongyuan spoke, his eyes inadvertently glanced at Su Che: "His name Shikshananda. As for whether it will lead to other consequences, you can look up this name."

Having said that, even if Wu Zhiqi was still arrogant, he dared not ask any more questions.

Shikshananda, Su Che certainly knew what this name meant. He was one of the Hungry Ghost who had escaped from the Hungry Ghost Path to the human world, and he was the prince of Vajra Yaksha Wisdom King.

Zhongyuan swept his gaze over the people below.

Do you have any other questions?

"My lord," the nobleman from the Northern Kingdom, wearing the Yuqiang mask, said to Zhongyuan, "I have a matter I would like to ask my friends in the south to help investigate."

Zhongyuan nodded slowly.

"I've heard that a major event has occurred in Southern Liang," Yuqiang said, looking at Gushe not far away. "The Yin-Yang Realm has shattered, and the Hungry Ghost Path Realm has been established. I would like to ask you all to help me investigate the cause and effect. As for the reward..."

Yuqiang sighed.

"Our department has been in turmoil recently, and its strength has been greatly diminished. We really have nothing to offer in exchange."

"I'm also very curious to know what exactly happened in the Yin-Yang Realm."

Gushe was suspected to be a member of the Great Liang royal family, also spoke up, "As for the reward, I am willing..."

"I can tell you what exactly happened in the Yin-Yang Realm."

Su Che spoke up.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the Little Fox's eyes lit up.

"However, there's something I'd like to know, and I hope you can help me look it up."

Su Che looked at Yuqiang and Gushe.

"I need some information about the Jade Scenery Sect; you can just gather it up."

Jade Scenery Sect.

Gushe lowered her head. Why did Feng Boar want Jade Scenery Sect's information? Could it be that he wanted to become Jade Scenery Sect's disciple?

"Lord Zhongyuan, I have news about the Jade Scenery Sect. I wish to speak with Feng Boar privately."

Qingqiu suddenly spoke, drawing a sidelong glance from Gushe.

Why is this Qingqiu woman so interested in the Yin-Yang Realm?
