Chapter 238 Fengdu Fruit Position, Terrifying Reincarnation Merit!
The latest update is now live and awaits your interpretation.
The fourteenth level of hell is the Hell of Lamentation.
This hell is where those who died unjustly come, those who "died with a single breath" and "alas" are the words most often uttered by those who died unjustly before their deaths.
It can be said that the eighteen levels of hell are the places in the underworld where sentient beings are punished for their sins in life. They can eliminate the karma of sentient beings, balance the evil energy of heaven and earth, and delay the arrival of the great calamity!
After all the beings in the heavens and myriad realms perish, those whose merits outweigh their faults must undergo the trials of the eighteen hells to cleanse themselves of their sins before they can be reincarnated according to the magnitude of their karma!
However, the "merits" and "demerits" here are not simply "good" and "evil," but rather depend on your contribution to heaven and earth.
As long as you can promote the good development of heaven and earth, that is merit, just like Houtu, who once reincarnated to mend the primordial chaos, and thus has great merit to possess!
Conversely, if one destroys the primordial source of the universe, the resulting karma will be immense, a grave transgression that will lead to endless torment in the eighteen hells!
"I, Houtu, in the name of the Dao Ancestor, request the Earth Dao to add the Primordial Purgatory to the Underworld. Those who enter this prison will be suppressed there and never be able to be reborn unless the Dao Ancestor, the Fengdu Emperor, the Five Ghost Emperors, and the Lords of the Six Paths of Reincarnation all give their approval."
Just then, Houtu suddenly announced the passage through the tunnel. Immediately afterwards, a vast river of tunnels flowed down into the eighteen levels of hell, gradually giving rise to a magnificent and vast purgatory. The entrance inscription bore the two large characters "Hun Yuan Hell"!
Seeing this, Zhao Gongming's heart stirred.
This infernal hell is actually suppressed by the underground river itself. Could it be... reserved for a Primordial Golden Immortal?
After all, it's not impossible to suppress a Grand Luo Immortal to the underworld.
Just like the Heavenly Saints, once their primordial spirits, which they entrusted to the Heavenly Dao, are removed, they lose their saintly status and are left with only the cultivation of a Primordial Golden Immortal.
In that case, even if we kill them, we still cannot escape the fate of reincarnation.
However, the Primordial Golden Immortal is too powerful. Even after death, he is beyond the capacity of the eighteen levels of hell to withstand. It is even possible that he might occupy one of the hells.
Therefore, Houtu specially created a Primordial Purgatory and personally suppressed it with the underground river. Even a Primordial Golden Immortal could not stir up any waves!
This also reflects that the earth is a path that pursues balance, and even if a saint creates karma, he must accept its punishment.
"Buzz—"
Just as Zhao Gongming was observing Hell, a strange movement suddenly occurred within his body. With a thought, two magical treasures flew out and hovered in front of him.
One is a completely black calligraphy brush, and the other is an antique green book.
"The Judge's Pen, the Book of Life and Death?"
Zhao Gongming's eyes were bright. He raised his hand and opened the Book of Life and Death. The first page was filled with names. These names were those of the beings living in the Earthly Immortal Realm.
Some of these names have a "bad" mark at the end, clearly indicating that they have already fallen from grace.
The names on the second page are even more vast. These names belong to the endless Great Thousand Worlds, Middle Thousand Worlds, and Small Worlds under the Primordial World. Compared to the first page, new names appear much more frequently on the second page, which also shows that the rate at which the beings of these worlds are born is far higher than that of the Primordial World.
The following pages are blank, clearly waiting for Zhao Gongming to fill them in with his judge's pen.
After all, the Earthly Path was newly created and was not omnipotent. It could not monitor all living beings in the heavens and the universe like the Heavenly Path. Moreover, even the Heavenly Path had its omissions. Therefore, Zhao Gongming would have to fill in the gaps himself with the Judge's Pen.
As for the Judge's Pen, it has more than just the function of filling in names. If Zhao Gongming wanted to draw a line on it, he could change the lifespan of living beings in the mortal world and the true spirits in the underworld. Although it cannot control absolute life and death, it is still very terrifying.
In the original story, Sun Wukong used the judge's pen to scribble on the Book of Life and Death, which allowed the living beings in the mortal world who should have died to live for hundreds of years longer, and made the true spirits in the underworld who were about to be reincarnated to wait for hundreds of years longer!
However, these two extraordinary treasures are not omnipotent; at least, they have no effect on powerful beings above the level of Great Luo Golden Immortal.
After all, a Great Luo Golden Immortal has transcended the Five Elements and lives as long as Heaven and Earth. Unless an accident occurs, it is impossible for them to have dealings with the Underworld.
"The power of this Emperor of Fengdu is truly immense!"
Zhao Gongming gasped. When Houtu appointed him as the Emperor of Fengdu and bestowed upon him the Judge's Pen and the Book of Life and Death, it was only so that he could help shoulder the responsibility of protecting the Wu tribe from extinction after her death.
Unexpectedly, with Houtu's ascension to sainthood and the manifestation of the Earthly Dao, his status as the Emperor of Fengdu actually turned around.
Leaving aside the terrifyingly powerful Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen, the sheer amount of merit accumulated through reincarnation every moment was enough to terrify Zhao Gongming.
This kind of merit is not like a system reward that gives you a lot all at once. Instead, it flows into Zhao Gongming's body like a gentle stream every moment as people are reincarnated.
It should be noted that many beings perished during the Investiture of the Gods calamity, including some Great Luo Golden Immortals, whose reincarnation merits were even more terrifying. In the myriad realms of the primordial world, beings also perish every moment, and the merits of these beings reincarnating are distributed among the holders of positions in the underworld.
In other words, as long as someone dies, Zhao Gongming can enjoy the merit!
It sounds a bit outrageous, but that's the terrifying aspect of the underworld's rank!
What's worse, there are still vacancies in the underworld, and almost all of these merits have been enjoyed by Zhao Gongming and Houtu!
"Buzz—"
As if to prove the terror of the Fengdu Emperor, Zhao Gongming's Golden Wheel of Merit, which had never increased before, suddenly condensed into a fifth level, and even visibly condensed towards a sixth level.
Given time, it's not impossible for it to condense the legendary twelve-layered golden wheel of merit!
And so, under the awe-inspiring gazes of all the great beings, the underworld gradually took full shape.
In the center of the sky, stands the magnificent and vast underworld, with the six paths of reincarnation faintly visible above the boundless sea of blood. A narrow path leads to the entrance of the underworld.
This narrow path, though seemingly cramped, strangely exudes a grand and majestic aura. In the distance, one can vaguely see a mighty, flowing yellow spring cascading above the path, piercing through the endless void.
This is the legendary Road to the Underworld.
Beyond the Road to the Underworld lies a magnificent pass, towering into the clouds, with three large characters boldly inscribed on its eerie gate: Gate of Hell!
At this moment, the gates of hell opened wide. Looking inside, one could see a towering platform standing in the center of the city. The blue stone platform was rusted and exuded an ancient and vicissitudes-like aura.
On the bluestone platform, the three large characters "Wangxiangtai" are engraved.
Behind the Viewing Platform, there stands an extremely magnificent city with the words "Fengdu" engraved on it. Inside the city, there are ten grand halls, exuding a haunting and mysterious aura!
