The Treasure Generating Bowl - Chapter 961

Chapter 961 Underworld

“Sizzle sizzle…”

The Nine Heavens Mystic Fire erupted once more, scorching Zhao Xiangdu.

“ah……”

“Stop, stop, stop…”

“It hurts so much…”

Zhao Xiang was burned and screamed loudly.

He Pingsheng stopped firing and said, “Who knows if you’re telling the truth or not? I’ll give you some pain first to teach you a lesson, otherwise you’ll try to lie to me again!”

“I didn’t!” Zhao Xiangdu said, looking aggrieved.

He Pingsheng said, “Tell me… how the underworld operates!”

Know your enemy and know yourself, and you will never be defeated.

At least we should get a general idea of what the underworld is like, right?

“Yes, yes, yes!” Zhao Xiang said, trembling. “I’m just a lowly ghost messenger, I don’t know much, I can only tell you what I know!”

“First, after a living being dies, its soul will follow the Yellow Springs and be drawn to the Underworld by the Six Paths!”

“The first step upon arriving in the underworld is to be led by us ghost messengers to a place called the [Underworld Bureau]!”

“The soul is first imprisoned in the Underworld, and the time spent imprisoned varies. Some imprisoned souls can be imprisoned for hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years!”

“Some trips are short, only one or two days!”

“After leaving the Underworld, you will be taken to the Judge’s Hall. The Judge will take stock of your sins along the way and decide whether you should go to Hell based on the severity of your sins. If you are to go to Hell, what kind of Hell will you go to? How many years will you stay in Hell, and so on!”

“Upon arriving at the [Hell Division], one begins to endure all sorts of hellish tortures!”

“Once their sentence is served, they leave the Department of Hell. After leaving Hell, they are sent to the Department of Reincarnation along with the innocent souls!”

“There is a Bridge of Helplessness right outside the gates of the Reincarnation Bureau!”

“On the Bridge of Helplessness, after drinking a bowl of Meng Po soup and forgetting everything, one can enter the Department of Reincarnation!”

“After arriving at the Samsara Department, there are those who guard the Six Paths who will cleanse these souls of all their karma, merits, and incense offerings!”

“Finally, a wisp of pure, white, and immaculate soul was placed into the Six Paths!”

“Of course, based on the karmic merits and deeds of this person in their previous life, it will be decided whether they are placed into a different realm of the six realms!”

“The Reincarnation Division, the Underworld Division, and the Hell Division are all under the jurisdiction of the [Judges’ Office]!”

“And the Judge’s Office is under the jurisdiction of the Underworld Palace!”

“The entire underworld does not have just one King of the Underworld Palace, but ten in total. And each King of the Underworld Palace does not have just one judge’s office, but dozens of them!”

“As for the Six Ministries of Merit above the Underworld Palace, the Five Ghost Emperors above them, and the Great Emperor of Fengdu above them, they are beyond the comprehension of us lowly minions!”

Zhao Xiang spoke at length in one breath.

He Pingsheng also gained a basic understanding of how the entire underworld operates.

“Alright!” He took a deep breath and said, “Now let’s get down to business!”

Do you know why I’m here?

Zhao Xiang shook his head.

He Pingsheng said, “Zhou Qingmei perished about seven hundred years ago, and then her soul entered the underworld!”

“I think you’ve already met her!”

He Pingsheng stared at Zhao Xiangdu.

Zhao Xiangdu nodded with a complicated expression: “Yes…”

He Pingsheng asked, “Where is she now?”

Zhao Xiang said alone, “He’s still imprisoned in the Underworld!”

“Zhou Qingmei’s situation is rather special. She was originally a wandering ghost who had been dead for tens of thousands of years, but due to special circumstances, she was resurrected. Therefore, upon arriving in the underworld, she was immediately sent to the Judge’s residence for judgment!”

“But the judge said that such a resurrection was a matter of chance, not an escape from punishment. He couldn’t determine her guilt immediately, so she was imprisoned back in the Underworld!”

“There’s still no result!”

Hearing this, He Pingsheng breathed a sigh of relief.

At least Zhou Qingmei is still imprisoned in the Underworld!

It’s good that you haven’t entered the cycle of reincarnation.

That old fox Jin Ku was right!

“Um…” He Pingsheng asked again, “I want to take Zhou Qingmei’s soul with me and re-enter the spirit world. How can I do that?”

“Ah?” Zhao Xiangdu’s expression changed: “Absolutely not… Zhou Qingmei is a special case. The interrogation is not over yet. If we take her out now, it will cause a lot of trouble!”

“If the judge asks about it later, everyone will be in trouble!”

“Even you will be arrested and taken to the underworld!”

He Pingsheng sneered, “Stop talking nonsense. I asked how to take it away, not what the consequences would be!”

Zhao Xiangdu still said, “You’re incredibly audacious!”

He Pingsheng said, “Zhao Xiangdu, don’t think I don’t know. There was a woman named Bingxuan who took her son’s soul from here before. This is the person… you should know her…”

As he spoke, He Pingsheng gathered his magical power and conjured up the appearance of the Ice Mystic Fairy.

After looking at it alone, Zhao Xiang said, “That’s right, I was the one who let her in!”

“But it’s different!”

“Her son is just a nobody!”

“He Pingsheng, to put it bluntly, the time it takes for the judge to examine a soul is determined by the Underworld!”

“I released her son’s soul, and after a while her son died again, I sent it back to the judge’s office. It doesn’t matter!”

“No one will know that he has come back to life again!”

“But Zhou Qingmei is different; she was personally selected by the judge to be involved!”

“What if the judge remembers Zhou Qingmei one day and wants to try her? How will we hand her over?”

“All ghost messengers, emissaries, and underworld officials must be punished!”

the exciting content!

“Moreover, the judge also said that Zhou Qingmei’s rebirth did not cause any cause or effect; rather, it was her luck and opportunity!”

“I suppose I won’t be going to hell!”

“I suspect it’s most likely a direct reincarnation!”

He Pingsheng shook his head, ignoring Zhao Xiangdu’s words, and instead asked, “What benefits did Bingxuan give you when he came last time?”

“Don’t say you don’t!”

“I believe that if she doesn’t offer you any benefits, you will absolutely not return her son’s soul to her!”

laugh……

Before Zhao Xiang could speak, He Pingsheng unleashed the Nine Heavens Mystic Fire.

“No!” Zhao Xiangdu cried out in fright, “No, no, no… I’ll tell you, I’ll tell the truth, okay?”

“Yes, I did accept a bribe from her!”

“Together with the two ghost messengers from the Underworld, the three of us together took away ten thousand years of her lifespan!”

“What?” He Pingsheng was slightly surprised: “Lifespan can be collected too?”

“What use do you guys have for this thing?”

“Sigh…” Zhao Xiang sighed and said, “The life of a ghost messenger is not easy either. We seem to have endless lifespans, working year after year in this dark place. In reality, we need something every year to keep us alive!”

“That’s Yang energy, that’s right, it’s Yang energy!”

“As the saying goes, yin cannot grow alone, and yang cannot thrive alone!”

“Even ghosts underground need yang energy!”

“And the lifespan of a living person is the best replenishment of yang energy!”

“The amount of yang energy we receive from above each year is deducted at every level, which is already insufficient, so we can only resort to this method!”

Fifth update delivered, please give me some energy…
