The Authority of Reincarnation Deal

"Fellow Daoist of Changsheng."

Looking at Ao Changsheng, who had stepped into the Netherworld Underworld, Pingxin bowed and said softly.

"Fellow Daoist Changsheng, shouldn't you give me an explanation...?"

"Explain... what explanation?"

Ao Changsheng looked at Pingxin and asked with a light smile.

"Naturally, it was Fellow Daoist's explanation for suppressing my Witch Race's Great Witch Xiangliu." Pingxin stared at Ao Changsheng and said in a low voice.

"No, no, no." Ao Changsheng shook his head.

"It wasn't me who sealed Xiangliu, but my disciple Fuxi... Although my disciple went a bit too far by bullying the younger one, but..."

"Xiangliu only has himself to blame!"

Pingxin gazed at Ao Changsheng without speaking.

Perhaps other powerful beings, even some Sage, could not discern who had made the move.

But with Pingxin, one is definitely not among those who cannot discern the truth.

Seeing Pingxin's expression, Ao Changsheng couldn't help but sigh.

"Alright!"

"It is only natural for fellow Daoists to help each other, so Pingxin Daoist Pingxin, there is no need to thank my disciple too much."

"But Pingxin Daoist Pingxin is so kind, I, being here, will accept your gift on behalf of my Pingxin Fuxi."

"I will certainly convey your gratitude, Fellow Daoist Pingxin," Ao Changsheng said with a Pingxin and awe-inspiring expression.

Pingxin suddenly fell silent.

I didn't speak before because some things didn't need to be said explicitly, but now, it's because I don't know how to say them.

Looking at Ao Changsheng before him, Pingxin murmured after a long while, "Fellow Daoist Changsheng, you've changed a lot compared to billions of years ago!"

"It's normal for things to change a bit after so long," Ao Changsheng waved his hand dismissively, then looked at Pingxin seriously and asked.

"I wonder what gift Fellow Pingxin has prepared for my disciple?"

"Let me make this clear first: my disciple only contributed a tiny bit of effort, which is hardly worthy of your gratitude with any Authority of Reincarnation."

"Fellow Daoist, a casual promise of some authority over the Underworld is enough."

Pingxin looked at Ao Changsheng and fell silent once again.

For the first time in my life, Pingxin understood what it means to be shameless and invincible.

Seeing Pingxin remain silent for a long time, Ao Changsheng showed no sign of stopping, but continued to laugh.

"My disciple helped Pingxin Daoist Pingxin suppress Xiangliu. Pingxin Daoist Pingxin, you're not just going to offer verbal thanks, are you?"

"Xiangliu is a great member of the Witch Race..."

Before Pingxin could finish speaking, Ao Changsheng interrupted him.

"Xingtian, Fengbo, Yushi, Chiyou..."

Ao Changsheng read out these names one after another.

Pingxin paused slightly, but his face remained expressionless as he asked, "What is the meaning of this, fellow Daoist?"

"Xingtian was beheaded and suppressed by Haotian, Chiyou was torn apart by five horses by the Heavenly Court to suppress the Primordial World, and the Fengbo and Yushi were forcibly returned to the Heavenly Court to be responsible for mediating the winds and rains of the Primordial World."

"But... Fellow Daoist, your Underworld has quietly merged into the Heavenly Court, and within the Heavenly Court, a Houtu Earth Goddess, who upholds the laws of Heaven and follows the example of the Empress Houtu, has been added!"

Ao Changsheng chuckled softly.

"Pingxin Daoist Pingxin, I wonder if you and the Heavenly Court are enemies, or perhaps have some kind of cooperative relationship?"

Upon hearing what Ao Changsheng said, Pingxin's expression did not change.

Even when she made these decisions, she never expected that her actions could be concealed from the many powerful beings of the Primordial World.

"Xingtian has only lost his head. As long as Xingtian can let go of this, I can find it back at any time, or even give him a new head," Pingxin said softly with a smile.

"The Fengbo, the Yushi, and Chiyou are, at most, subject to the punishment of one Immeasurable Tribulation... But fellow Daoist, you have subdued my Witch Race's Great Witch Xiangliu!"

"So... Pingxin Daoist Pingxin, are you planning to raise the price?" Ao Changsheng asked with a smile.

"Pingxin Daoist Pingxin, you are too kind. Although my disciple has indeed suppressed Xiangliu more firmly."

"But in terms of numbers, Haotian Zhanyou of the Heavenly Court is still inferior, so Pingxin Daoist Pingxin, there's no need to be so polite."

As Ao Changsheng spoke, he waved his hand repeatedly, as if to say, "You don't need to be so polite."

Pingxin opened her mouth, but remained silent once again.

"Fellow Daoist!" Pingxin's tone became much more forceful, "That Xiangliu is Great Witch of my Witch Race!"

"Yes! I know about it. After all, it's another Witch Race that has mastered the Great Dao of Poison since the fall of the Shebishi Ancestral Witch!"

Ao Changsheng chuckled and nodded, his words carrying a profound meaning.

Seeing Ao Changsheng in such a state, Lady Pingxin's heart skipped a beat almost imperceptibly.

Could it be that he guessed something?

Pingxin couldn't help but feel suspicious, but he remained outwardly calm and asked, "What do you mean, fellow Daoist?"

"What do you mean?" Ao Changsheng looked at Pingxin in front of him and chuckled.

"Speaking of which, this Great Dao of Poison is truly quite dangerous! If it weren't for my disciple's powerful Nine Provinces Barrier, the Underworld might already be full."

Upon hearing Ao Changsheng's words, Pingxin remained outwardly silent, her face cold and indifferent, as if she had nothing to say, but inwardly she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"In this matter... Xiangliu was wrong! Since that's the case, then I will say no more," Pingxin Xin sighed softly.

"I'll hand over the position of judge of the Underworld to you, fellow Daoist, as an apology!"

"It is not to be handed over to me, but to my disciple!" Ao Changsheng emphasized.

"Fellow Daoist Changsheng, please feel free to do as you please," Pingxin said softly, completely unconcerned about Ao Changsheng's tone.

As he spoke, a glimmer of light quietly appeared in front of Ao Changsheng.

This glimmer of light was none other than the Authority of the Judge of the Underworld. As long as one possessed this authority, one could obtain Divine Ability powers from the gods and spirits.

Don't underestimate the judge.

The judge decides the cycle of life and death.

It determines whether the soul will be reincarnated or suffer in Hell.

In the Underworld, the judge's status is probably second only to the Yamas of the Ten Courts, making him a truly high-ranking divine official in the Nether Realm.

Although it was of little use to a powerful figure like Ao Changsheng.

However, for a particular group, if they possess such a divine office, they can seek benefits for their group to the fullest extent within the scope of their duties.

After all...

There is no better way to see a person's potential than by looking directly at their soul, and the merits and sins of their past life can, to some extent, be considered a kind of Karmic Luck.

"Then I, this Pingxin Daoist, will thank Fellow Daoist Pingxin on behalf of my disciple." With that, Ao Changsheng put away the Authority of the Judge.

His face was full of smiles, but in his heart, Ao Changsheng was even more certain of his thoughts.

The Houtu transforms into reincarnation.

This cycle of reincarnation does not refer to the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Ao Changsheng knew that the position of the Yamas of the Ten Courts in the Underworld had already been promised by Pingxin to Haotian of the Heavenly Court.

And now, this position of judge has been handed over so easily.

This Underworld, this Six Paths of Reincarnation, was created by Pingxin at the Pingxin of his Authority of Reincarnation, yet now he so ungratefully disregards this Underworld.

Pingxin didn't even care much about the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

It is clear that Pingxin mind is not found in the Underworld.

Ao Changsheng secretly smiled to himself.

Many years ago, Ao Changsheng had a guess in his heart, and today, perhaps, his guess can be confirmed.

Although Pingxin's performance had been flawless before.

But Ao Changsheng remained certain that the purpose of establishing this Underworld, or rather the Six Paths of Reincarnation, was to resurrect the twelve... or rather, the eleven Ancestral Witch.

Even to resurrect the entire Witch Race.

Although Ao Changsheng did not know why Pingxin had the idea of resurrecting the eleven Ancestral Witch.

After all, the Witch Race has never been afraid of death, believing that death is simply returning to their father god Pangu.

But without a doubt.

Pingxin wants to resurrect the eleven Ancestral Witch!

Perhaps... just as he said when he Pingxin resolved the cycle of reincarnation, from now on, the Houtu will no longer be a place of witchcraft.

Or perhaps, it was because the entire Witch Race perished so tragically.

However... Ao Changsheng was very curious about what Houtu, or rather Pingxin, saw and discovered when she attained enlightenment.

That's what caused such a big change.

"Could it be... that they've discovered Pangu didn't actually die?" Ao Changsheng thought to himself, a quiet smile playing on his lips.

If that's really the case, then that'll be interesting.

"Fellow Daoist Changsheng, may I ask what brings you to the Underworld?" Pingxin asked softly.

What happened before.

It was Pingxin who initiated it.

In the end, he Pingxin his loss and relinquished his Authority of the Judge.

But Ao Changsheng's purpose in coming to the Underworld this time was not for this minor Authority of the Judge.

"I have come to the Underworld for the sake of the Authority of Reincarnation," Ao Changsheng said softly.

"The Authority of Reincarnation?"

"Changsheng Daoist Changsheng, are you prepared to relinquish the Authority of Reincarnation to me?" Pingxin asked with a light laugh.

"Pingxin Daoist Pingxin, you jest. I have come here to purchase the Authority of Reincarnation from you..."

Ao Changsheng shook his head slightly.

"Fellow Daoist Changsheng... if you've come here just to joke around, please leave!"

Pingxin's face still held a faint smile, but compared to her previous gentleness, this smile now carried a cold indifference that kept people at a distance.

What is the Authority of Reincarnation?

That is the principle governing the operation of all things in the Primordial World.

It is the perfect operation of the Three Thousand Great Dao and the Primordial World.

It is a world truth that even Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao covet.

Should she relinquish her Authority of Reincarnation?

How is that possible?

In his subsequent practice, Pingxin gradually realized the usefulness of the Authority of Reincarnation.

And it is precisely because of this that whenever Pingxin thinks of the scene where he had just opened the cycle of reincarnation, only to have his power taken away and be left to watch the show in silence, he cannot help but feel heartbroken.

"Just like last time, fifty units of world origin are exchanged for five percent of the Authority of Reincarnation."

Ao Changsheng silently offered a price.

"No!" Pingxin shook her head decisively.

Although she knew that the origin of that world was a good thing, he... couldn't use it!

The world's origin that she casually typed out last time is still gathering dust in her treasure trove! And now she's coming back for more.

"One hundred units..." Ao Changsheng raised the price.

He shook his head Pingxin.

"I'll only exchange four percent of the Authority of Reincarnation!" Ao Changsheng said softly.

"Changsheng, it is impossible for me to relinquish my Authority of Reincarnation," Pingxin said firmly.

"One hundred remnants of world origin in exchange for one percent of the Authority of Reincarnation." Ao Changsheng directly stated his bottom line.

Upon hearing this, Pingxin immediately wavered.

It wasn't that she was planning to trade the Authority of Reincarnation with Ao Changsheng, but rather that she remembered how Ao Changsheng had dismissed her with only fifty remnants of world origin.

Now it seems she lost more than ten times her initial investment!

"Changsheng, if you still have designs on my Authority of Reincarnation, then you should leave!" Pingxin directly adopted a posture of seeing him off.

Seeing Pingxin's expression, Ao Changsheng was not surprised.

Originally, he had no expectation of obtaining the Authority of Reincarnation from Pingxin this time; he was only offering the price as a trial.

"Since you are unwilling to trade with me, fellow Daoist, how about I exchange the Authority of Reincarnation with you, Pingxin Daoist Pingxin?" Ao Changsheng said softly.

"Exchange the Authority of Reincarnation?"

Pingxin was taken aback.

What is your meaning, fellow Daoist?

"I will not hide anything from Fellow Daoist Pingxin."

"The reason I was able to obtain ten percent of the power from you and Fellow Daoist Hongjun is because I created this Realm of Reincarnation."

"This Realm of Reincarnation contains some of my methods, which is why I am qualified to hold the Authority of Reincarnation."

Ao Changsheng said quite frankly.

Nod Pingxin.

As the nominal ruler of the Realm of Reincarnation at this time, Pingxin naturally knew the origin of this Realm of Reincarnation.

"That is why, although I have obtained the Authority of Reincarnation, I cannot transfer this Authority of Reincarnation to others."

"Once I relinquish or transfer this Authority of Reincarnation, it will naturally return to the hands of you, Fellow Daoist, and Fellow Daoist Hongjun."

Ao Changsheng shook his head slightly and said.

"There's something so good... so secretive!" Pingxin blurted out.

"..."

I already heard the word "good"!

Ao Changsheng sighed helplessly and continued, "The perspective from which this Authority of Reincarnation operates is extremely beneficial to the cultivation methods of my lineage."

"Therefore, I intend to give a portion of the Authority of Reincarnation to my disciple. That is why I wish to exchange some legitimate Authority of Reincarnation with you, fellow Daoist."

After hearing what Ao Changsheng said, Pingxin was also slightly shaken.

Those who do not personally possess the Authority of Reincarnation of Authority of Reincarnation understand even more clearly how important it is.

Even if the eleven Ancestral Witch were to be resurrected at this time, and one were to ask her for the Authority of Reincarnation, Pingxin would probably be unwilling to hand it over.

But now, Ao Changsheng actually wants to hand over his Authority of Reincarnation to his disciple.

"To be able to become Changsheng Daoist Changsheng's disciple... I'm truly fortunate!" Pingxin murmured with emotion.

"I wonder if Changsheng Daoist Changsheng still accepts disciples? My Witch Race's Jiufeng Great Witch has quite good aptitude..." Pingxin asked Ao Changsheng.

Ao Changsheng shook his head and muttered, "We can't afford it anymore."

"That's true!" Pingxin smiled and nodded, indicating her understanding.

Preparing a disciple with the Authority of Reincarnation —how many people in the Primordial World could accept such a disciple?

And that's not all.

Pingxin thought of Ao Changsheng's disciple from the Primordial World era.

Those are seven Supreme-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure.

Even though the origins of these seven Supreme-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure are somewhat strange, the essence of Supreme-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure cannot be faked.

"Pingxin Daoist Pingxin, would you be willing to exchange this Authority of Reincarnation?" Ao Changsheng said.

"Sure, but..." Pingxin said, a bright smile immediately spreading across her face.

"You need to pay more!"
