Underworld

Darkness and mystery are the eternal themes here.

It seemed to be a realm opposed to the mortal world.

It was cold and dark here, with almost no sign of life.

Upon arriving here, it seems as if the concept of time has been completely lost.

All concepts of beauty and warmth seem to have absolutely no connection to this place.

After all living beings die, their souls are drawn here by the order of the Six Paths realms.

As the final resting place for the dead in the entire Primordial World

The Netherworld World is vast, and in its earliest days...

It is divided into layers of smaller worlds.

These interconnected yet independent microcosms

Together they form the Netherworld Underworld, similar to the Thirty-Three Heavens.

However, even such a vast world has only existed for tens of thousands of years.

It already faces a huge problem.

The Netherworld Underworld is overflowing with people—no, it's overflowing with ghosts!

Down from the Netherworld Blood Sea where the Asura Path is located

From the first level of the underworld onwards, this place is filled with all sorts of ghosts.

Some of these ghosts are transformed from pigs, horses, cattle, and sheep.

Fierce wild beasts such as wolves, leopards, tigers, and lions also came.

There are also many ghosts that insects turn into after they die, as well as many Human Race that become ghosts after they die.

Of course, the spirits of Human Race are only a very, very small part of it.

The souls of these beings from the Six Paths, transformed after death, filled the entire Netherworld Hell.

Within the vast and profound space of the Netherworld Underworld...

Souls were wandering aimlessly everywhere.

There were so many ghosts that it was almost as if they were pushing each other over and crowding each other out.

These wandering souls are not aimless.

Their destination is mostly the lowest level of the Netherworld Underworld.

The reason is simple: the Reincarnation Wheel of reincarnation, used to explain the cycle of rebirth, is right there.

It is managed by the Lady Pingxin and is used to enable all living beings to be reincarnated.

These ghosts who voluntarily come to the Netherworld Underworld have only two purposes.

One reason is to find a place to belong, so that one no longer has to wander the world as a lonely, aimless ghost.

The second is reincarnation.

Unfortunately, there were too many ghosts in the crowd.

The tunnels between different levels of hell were all bursting from the crowd.

This caused most of the ghosts that came to the Netherworld Underworld to...

It is simply impossible to reach the lowest level of the Netherworld Underworld in a short period of time.

Head to the location of the Reincarnation Wheel and the Reincarnation Path.

A giant Reincarnation Wheel stands here.

A profound, majestic, and mysterious aura continuously emanated from the Reincarnation Wheel.

It instilled an overwhelming sense of oppression in countless ghosts.

Before that enormous Reincarnation Wheel lies the Dharma body of Lady Pingxin.

The Lady Pingxin, who looks exactly like Houtu, stands here.

Her appearance was dignified and solemn.

Her exquisite and beautiful features showed absolutely no emotion.

It looks like a doll.

Having the power to control the cycle of birth and death for all beings in the Six Paths, the last thing she needs is emotion.

Houtu transformed herself into the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and with the help of Lin Yunji, she gave birth to Lady Pingxin.

Lady Pingxin is equivalent to the Dharma body of Houtu, but she also possesses cultivation equivalent to that of Sage!

Meanwhile, the Reincarnation Wheel beside her is her Law Treasure.

If any enemy dares to fight her in the Netherworld Hell,

She can also borrow the power of the Netherworld World Netherworld Underworld directly suppress enemies.

She is the absolute ruler of the Netherworld World!

Before the Reincarnation Wheel, the colossal Dharma body of the Lady Pingxin looked down upon all living beings.

The vast horde of ghosts surged before her.

One by one, they trembled and bowed down to her in awe.

Before Sage, who wouldn't feel reverence, who wouldn't be afraid!

Faced with the worship of the masses, Lady Pingxin accepted it calmly.

Her cold, indifferent eyes swept over them.

In the blink of an eye, he had already understood all the causes and conditions of the vast number of ghosts.

She then waved her hand, and a light, gray drizzle immediately began to fall.

The light rain fell on the many ghosts, and in the blink of an eye, they...

It was as if he had completely lost his memory and self-awareness, becoming completely dumbfounded.

This rain can make people forget the past.

From then on, they could not remember their past lives, thus allowing them to start anew after being reincarnated.

No more being bound by or suffering from the past.

Then Lady Pingxin waved her hand again,

These ghostly figures instantly transformed into a sky full of gray light and soared into the heavens.

Then they landed on the Reincarnation Wheel and disappeared one by one.

They have already been reincarnated in this way.

When she sent these ghosts to their reincarnations

Their past lives' merits and karmic consequences were also taken into consideration, and a judgment was made based on this.

Those with high merit are judged to enter the upper three realms as a reward.

Those with low merit are sentenced to the lower three realms as punishment.

Lady Pingxin acted very quickly.

Almost every moment, she sends a massive number of ghosts to be reincarnated.

Even so, compared to the souls that die every day in the Primordial World,

Compared to the ghosts currently accumulating in the Netherworld, this is still a drop in the ocean.

If this continues,

The entire Netherworld Underworld is about to be completely overwhelmed and paralyzed!

By that time,

The Primordial World will return to the state it was in before the Netherworld Underworld existed.

"No, if this continues, the Netherworld Underworld won't be able to hold on."

Lady Pingxin's expressionless face seemed to furrow slightly.

"In that case, we have no choice but to seek help from the Venerable One."

After a moment's thought, Lady Pingxin made up her mind.

With a thought, Houtu, as her true self, naturally knew everything immediately.

Among the Witch Clan,

Houtu, who was in seclusion Houtu her cultivation, opened her eyes.

"I never imagined that the Netherworld World would have such a huge problem!"

Her eyes narrowed slightly, and she was momentarily at a loss for what to do.

She already knew about the problems of the Netherworld World.

But knowing the problem is one thing; figuring out how to solve it is another.

The problem in the Netherworld World right now is simply that the workload is too great!

The number of living beings in the Primordial World was immeasurable.

With only Lady Pingxin presiding over the Netherworld Underworld,

To handle the reincarnation of all living beings in the entire Primordial World,

Even with her Sage cultivation and Daoxing, this was truly asking too much of her.

How should the problems of the Netherworld World be solved?

Houtu was at a loss for what to do.

However, she quickly came up with an idea.

Since she can't figure out a solution, why doesn't she ask someone else for help?!

Without a doubt, the first person Houtu could think of to ask for help was Lin Yunji!

"Looks like it's time to go to the Snail Emperor Palace."

Houtu thought to herself.

She emerged from her secluded retreat.

Without even greeting the other high priests in the Witch Clan,

He then hurriedly went to the Snail Emperor Palace.
