Within the Heavenly Tomb.
Ning Kunlun sat alone, his gaze deep and aged, as though he had seen all the myriad forms of the world.
He looked toward Nether River Ancient Saint, who had already reached the end of his lifespan and fallen.
The Nether River became his Immortal Tomb, wishing to be buried alongside heaven and earth. Endless auspicious phenomena stretched across this land; for a time, all things grew madly, and the Nether River became an eternal spectacle of this Immortal Territory. Though it seemed utterly ordinary, this was how it should be when an immortal sat in meditation.

The souls of the billions of ordinary living beings who fell in the Heavenly Frontier gathered here, no longer giving rise to "ghosts," "zombies," or "corpses." This place manifested within the Immortal Tomb built in Eternal Antiquity, and the passage was right there.
Those who entered were either delivered from suffering by the underworld's rules, or returned after obtaining a "divine soul opportunity."

They thought they could cultivate reincarnated bodies
