Reward settlement

Now, all matters concerning the Dharma-Extinguishing Kingdom have been completed.

Ao Tu bid farewell to Guanyin Bodhisattva and returned to the Blood Sea with the Patriarch Styx.

Within the Blood Sea, hundreds of thousands of Yaoguai were training, while countless Asura listened in.

When the White Bone Spirit saw Ao Tu return, she was the first to step forward, addressing him as "Your Great King," her affection overflowing.

Ao Tu had her follow him, and they went straight back into the palace.

The Patriarch Styx followed beside him.

Ao Tu sat on his throne, and the seven Spider Demon came out at the sound of his voice, offering him Immortal Fruit Fine Wine, saying in sweet voices, "Your Great King, you've been gone for three years, why haven't you sent us to serve you?"

Ao Tu said, "Let's not go this time, let's rest more."

The Spider Demon were delighted to hear this.

Upon hearing this, the Patriarch Styx became somewhat anxious and said:

"Cult Leader! Why indulge in pleasure? Now that we have established our religion in the Dharma-Extinguishing Kingdom, our urgent task is to Preaching in India and conquer Spirit Mountain!"

Ao Tu said, "The matter of spreading the faith should not be rushed. We should first accumulate strength and then wait for the opportune moment to strike."

The Patriarch Styx asked, "What other power do we need to accumulate?"

Ao Tu said, "I have a disciple whom I have been planning for a long time, to infiltrate Spirit Mountain and act as an Inside Agent. He is about to arrive."

The Patriarch Styx nodded upon hearing this. He hadn't anticipated the need to arrange for an Inside Agent agent. After a moment's thought, he added, "Cult Leader, there's one more thing. What should our sect be called?"

Ao Tu said, "Let me think about it. You may leave now."

The Patriarch Styx said, "Cult Leader, there is one more thing."

Ao Tu asked, "Is there anything else?"

The Patriarch Styx asked, "The Cult Leader once spoke of creating Evil Realm; when will it be created?"

Ao Tu said, "I am fully prepared. Once we capture Spirit Mountain, we will open it up together with the Good Realm. You may leave."

The Patriarch Styx said, "Cult Leader, there is one more thing."

Ao Tu said, "Why are there so many things?"

The Patriarch Styx said, "Although the Good and Evil Realms have not yet been established, my sect already has many followers, and there should be a place for the Good Souls and Evil Souls among them."

Ao Tu said, "Send some Asura to guide them; send male Asura to the Evil Person and female Asura to the Good Person, and put them into my two Gourd respectively."

The Patriarch Styx asked, "Should we ferry them from the Netherworld Realm or choose another route?"

Ao Tu said, "It's not appropriate to ferry people from the Netherworld Realm. The back-and-forth journey might disrupt the Reincarnation reincarnation in China. Let me find a new way."

The Patriarch Styx said, "Cult Leader, this matter cannot be delayed. If it cannot be opened up immediately, I will have someone set up a Palace Hall in the mortal world to temporarily collect souls."

Ao Tu waved his hand and said, "I understand. You may leave now. Let me think about it carefully."

The Patriarch Styx said, "Cult Leader, there is one more thing!"

Ao Tu said, "There's nothing else!"

The Patriarch Styx said, "Cult Leader, listen to me! Preparations should begin as soon as possible; do not let beauty cloud your judgment!"

Ao Tu said, "I've already made preparations. What do you know? Get down here!"

Patriarch Styx said, "Cult Leader!"

Ao Tu said, "I am the Cult Leader!"

Upon hearing this, the Patriarch Styx had no choice but to descend.

Ao Tu reclined on his throne, picked up a Plum to eat, and pondered what the Patriarch Styx had just said.

The Little Spider Demon said, "Your Great King, let me skin you!"

Ao Tu laughed, "Why peel a Plum? Do you take me for some rich young master kept in the inner chambers? Come on, come sit on my lap!"

The Little Spider Demon spirit, both shy and delighted, happily sat on Ao Tu's lap.

Ao Tu said, "You are quite persevering. You've been cultivating for many years and have truly suppressed your natural instincts."

The Little Spider Demon gave a soft "hmm".

Ao Tu laughed and said, "But is it because you've been eating Great Simplicity? Why haven't you grown taller?"

The Little Spider Demon perched on Ao Tu's chest and said, "Decades of cultivation is only half a year old. How could you possibly grow taller?"

Ao Tu nodded and said, "That's true." He placed his hand on her lower abdomen, which was soft, white, and felt very comfortable to touch.

The Little Spider Demon clung tightly to Ao Tu Ao Tu, her two tender feet wrapped around his waist.

Because he was holding her too tightly, Ao Tu pulled his hand out and placed it behind her back, groping around while thinking about Soul Ferrying.

The Good and Evil Realms Ao Tu plans to establish will be located outside the Six Paths of Reincarnation. It would be somewhat inappropriate to borrow a route from the Netherworld Realm.

He had initially considered opening up another route, but now he thought that perhaps it wouldn't be so troublesome.

Ao Tu held up a Golden Bushel in his palm, which spun around and around.

The Little Spider Demon turned around and looked, asking, "Your Great King, what is this?"

Ao Tu laughed and said, "My treasure absorbs the True Spirit of all things and is a treasure for Mortal to be born. All Congenital Spiritual Treasure have a fixed number and are not for fighting and vying for power, but rather to complete the Great Dao of the Heaven and Earth. People have Good and Evil, which are contained in this thing at birth, and they should also be guided by this thing after death."

Hearing this, Golden Bushel of Primordial Unity felt a surge of joy, and it bounced gently in Ao Tu's palm.

The Little Spider Demon, however, was somewhat difficult to understand.

Ao Tu knew she didn't understand, so he didn't explain further. He put away the Golden Bushel of Primordial Unity, smacked the Little Spider Demon's bottom, and the Little Spider Demon cried out "Ah!" and hugged Ao Tu even tighter.

Ao Tu smiled, carried her back to rest.

The next morning, the Little Spider Demon was still fast asleep.

Unlike others who breathe through their noses while sleeping, she exhales through her little mouth, which is rather cute.

Ao Tu reached out and touched her back. Behind that fair and smooth back, only a small red string was tied to her bodice in front. He had forgotten to untie it yesterday, so Ao Tu untied it today.

In the Wu Hour, the Patriarch Styx came looking for him again, complaining that Ao Tu should not have been so lustful.

Ao Tu then gave him the Golden Bushel of Primordial Unity, explained the reason, and instructed him to use it to Soul Ferrying.

Upon hearing this, the Patriarch Styx exclaimed with delight, "Since the Cult Leader possesses such Innate Object, why not use it to complete the Earthly Way heaven and earth, thereby gaining great Merit and fortune?"

Ao Tu said, "What do you know? The Good and Evil Realms haven't even been created yet, how can they be completed? Before this is done, we mustn't make a fuss. Let's use this treasure to Soul Ferrying!"

The Patriarch Styx then took the Golden Bushel of Primordial Unity and went down.

Thus, Ao Tu stayed in the Blood Sea for about a month, pondering important matters of the sect every day, working tirelessly from dawn till dusk.

Finally, Tang Sanzang and his disciples escaped the territory of the Dharma-Extinguishing Kingdom.

Ao Tu took out the reward.

The Ying Pearl is Jewel from the sea. The Dragon Race collects it as a treasure, and clam spirits who eat it can gain a thousand years of cultivation.

Gold Within Kan (坎中金) is refined Refined Gold from water, an extremely soft substance. However, if refined into an object, it transforms into an extremely hard substance.

Just then, the White Bone Spirit arrived, and Ao Tu, seeing her, called her to his side.

The White Bone Spirit, clad in armor, stepped forward and called out, "Your Great King!"

Ao Tu laughed and said, "Come here! I'll forge you a weapon!"

The White Bone Spirit was delighted upon hearing this and stepped forward.

Ao Tu asked, "What kind of weapon do you want?"
