Houtu gently parted her crimson lips, her voice soft yet carrying unquestionable authority:
"The profound mysteries of the Earth Dao are vast and deep, complementing the great Dao of reincarnation."
"Since you have already set foot upon this path, fellow Daoist Changqing, I shall explain the foundations of the Underworld and the true meaning of reincarnation to you."
With that, Houtu waved her hand. Their surroundings transformed in an instant, as though they stood within an endless river of reincarnation.
Countless departed souls rose and sank within it, undergoing the baptism of life, death, and reincarnation.
At the same time, a temple of supreme majesty materialized out of nothing.
The Reincarnation Sacred Hall!
Gu Changqing surveyed his surroundings through hazy, drunken eyes.
Vast swaths of Dao power surged, and boundless divine patterns revolved, indescribably profound and wondrous.
Clearly, these were the even deeper, more mysterious great Dao principles formed by the fusion of the Dao of reincarnation and the Earth Dao.
The sacred hall itself had been constructed and forged entirely from the most fundamental Dao rhythm.
Houtu's expression had turned solemn, her beautiful eyes exceptionally calm.
Then she spoke softly, explaining the mysteries of life, death, and reincarnation to Gu Changqing.
Houtu's voice was ethereal and distant, as though it came from ancient times, carrying endless wisdom and the weight of countless ages.
"Life, death, and reincarnation are ultimate truths of Heaven and Earth. All things have their beginning, and all things have their end."
"Yet reincarnation is not merely the alternation of life and death. It contains endless mysteries and possibilities..."
Waves of immortal proclamation resounded throughout the vast Netherworld Underworld, like the sovereign voice of the Great Dao, thunderous enough to awaken the deaf.
Such astonishing Dao rhythm swept outward, shaking the entire Underworld.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
