Chapter 452: Book of Life and Death

Gu Youlan held Ye Suifeng's arm and strolled among the stacked bookshelves.

While walking, he introduced the situation inside to Ye Suifeng.

"These are of the supernatural kind. They are extremely complex and number in the hundreds of thousands."

"However, over the past tens of thousands of years, most of the special arts have disappeared with the passage of time. Some have been lost, and some have been replaced by other more excellent skills."

Gu Youlan casually called over a book and said with a smile, "When we were in the northern snowfields, we met cultivators who cultivated life stars and life souls. I also collected their cultivation systems."

Ye Suifeng nodded. When he created the Mortal Realm Yuanshi Gong, he also referred to these two cultivation methods.

Along the way, he was shocked by the scale of the Heavenly Library.

The further you go inside, the larger the space becomes, and the number of books of various kinds displayed inside is so countless that it is impossible to count them.

I heard from Gu Youlan that over the years, they have collected hundreds of thousands of books alone. If all the books are added together, the number is an astronomical number that is difficult to estimate.

"Have you read all the books in here?"

Ye Suifeng asked in disbelief.

"Well, I finished reading it while I was collecting it."

Gu Youlan said: "It's been more than 10,000 years, and I have nothing else to do but read books~"

Ye Suifeng was secretly shocked.

It is a bit scary to find someone who can patiently read books for ten thousand years, but it is still very admirable.

"Come on, I'll take you to see something else I made besides reading."

Gu Youlan suddenly smiled, then pulled Ye Suifeng and flew upwards.

The two of them flew over bookshelves that were dozens of feet high, then passed through a thick space membrane and came to a vast void.

After coming in, Ye Suifeng's eyes suddenly widened.

The space is spherical in shape, and the surrounding walls are covered with a large number of densely packed golden runes.

And above each rune, there is a thin golden line extending out, extending to the center of the spherical space.

In the center, a huge Yin-Yang sphere was suspended quietly, and countless golden threads, like wires, continuously transmitted light to the Yin-Yang sphere.

"original..."

"Did you invent this?"

Ye Suifeng murmured.

Gu Youlan turned her head and asked: "Have you seen it before?"

Ye Suifeng nodded.

"Yes, when we were in the Taili Realm, there was this kind of Yin-Yang ball in Bai Langzhi's Magnolia Holy Land, which could detect the soul status of all life in the holy land."

"I was curious at the time, who was the clever guy who invented this magical thing."

Hearing the praise in Ye Suifeng's words, Gu Youlan couldn't help but laugh.

"It's not bad. After all, I've read so many books."

Ye Suifeng curled his lips. These words were not meant to please Gu Youlan, but were sincere compliments.

This Yin-Yang ball before one's eyes, whether in terms of its core structure or the arrangement of the formation, is so exquisitely crafted that it reaches the origin of heaven and earth.

Even for him, it would not be easy to create this thing.

"What is the detection range of your Yin-Yang Ball?"

Ye Suifeng asked.

When they were in the Magnolia Holy Land, the Yin-Yang Ball they had was at most the size of the holy land, and the one before them was clearly not of the same level.

Gu Youlan smiled and said softly, "Almost all."

"Except for some very special ones, it can detect the soul status of all living beings in the nine heavens and ten earths."

"And its ability is not limited to this. Once the underworld and reincarnation are successfully constructed, it can also affect living beings in turn."

"It is a very important part of our plan."

These words made Ye Suifeng's body pause slightly.

He had been planning to ask about the matter again in a few days, but unexpectedly Gu Youlan took the initiative to bring it up.

"I wanted to spend some time with you reminiscing and then figure this out."

Ye Suifeng said.

Gu Youlan smiled and said, "No one likes to watch us being affectionate."

"I can see that you have doubts in your heart. Besides, you should know these things."

As she spoke, Gu Youlan waved her hand and a table and chair appeared. After sitting down, she poured Ye Suifeng a cup of fragrant hot tea.

"Oh well."

Seeing her like this, Ye Suifeng couldn't refuse and sat down with her.

"Actually, I talked to Shenwu before, and he told me a lot of things."

"But there is one thing I don't quite understand. Even if they created the underworld and the six realms of reincarnation, there wouldn't be a need for Ye Huang and Ye Long to perform a scene and then have Ye Huang fall into darkness, right?"

Ye Suifeng expressed the biggest doubt in his mind. He had never understood the purpose of their doing this.

Hearing this question, Gu Youlan was silent for a while, and then said slowly: "This is Ye Huang's own request."

Next, Gu Youlan told Ye Suifeng something that the Divine Martial Immortal Emperor didn't know.

At that time, Ye Huang and his team had negotiated with the world hegemons for hundreds of years in order to ensure the normal development of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, but the final result was nothing.

This result makes everyone very helpless.

Xiao Hei was so angry that he wanted to destroy all those so-called world overlords and force this idea to go forward.

But Ye Huang calmed him down.

Creating a complete underworld is not that simple. It requires a lot of time and energy for experiments, and it also requires many other related things.

Afterwards, after discussion among the group, they decided that everyone would be responsible for their own part and the matter would proceed steadily.

Ye Long, Ye Qian, Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai are responsible for preparing things needed in the world of the living.

Ye Huang, Gu Youlan, Ye Xiaoxiao, and Ye Qinmo are responsible for preparing the underworld and reincarnation.

But after the division of labor was completed, there was still one last problem left.

Who will be the Lord of the Underworld?

If the underworld is really created successfully, then there must be a ruler of the underworld to control all matters on the dark side of the world.

But being the Lord of the Underworld requires more than just strong physical strength.

He must immerse himself in the dark side of the world, abandon everything in the world of the living, bear the synonym of fear, and merge with the underworld forever.

After a heated discussion, Ye Huang finally overcame all objections and took on the responsibility.

"I promised my father to protect this world, and I will never break my promise."

"These are Ye Huang's exact words at the time."

Gu Youlan said.

Ye Suifeng let out a long sigh.

He basically knew what happened next.

Ye Huang and Ye Long acted, and then everyone joined forces to kill the world overlord, turning the six major worlds into dead zones, and making Ye Huang successfully bear the fear of all living things.

Everything is going according to plan.

"What are your respective responsibilities?"

Ye Suifeng asked.

Gu Youlan raised her hand and pointed at the huge Yin-Yang ball suspended in space.

"That's mine."

"The Yin Yang Life and Death Ball can record the souls of all living beings in the world. After reaching the ultimate state, it can even control life and death."

"With this, the Lord of the Underworld can truly live up to his name."

Ye Suifeng felt indignant that they had even considered this aspect.

When he first saw the Yin-Yang Ball, he concluded that this thing was theoretically a very terrifying divine object.

Unexpectedly, Gu Youlan has turned theory into reality.

"Yin Yang Life and Death Ball, is that the name you gave it?"

Ye Suifeng asked.

Gu Youlan smiled and said, "Not really, I just called you that casually."

"Hei even called it 'Reading Ball' because it was placed at the top of the library."

Ye Suifeng was silent. This Xiaohei guy was still so out of tune.

"Such a divine object deserves a real name."

Ye Suifeng said.

Gu Youlan thought for a moment and said, "Then you come and get it. I can't think of anything good."

Ye Suifeng looked at the Yin-Yang Ball. Actually, he was usually afraid of giving it a name, but after understanding the true ability of the Yin-Yang Ball, he finally found a suitable name for it.

"otherwise..."

"Let's call it the Book of Life and Death. What do you think?"

Gu Youlan smiled: "As long as you like it."

After she finished speaking, she stretched out her hand and a huge Yin-Yang ball immediately began to fly over, shrinking continuously along the way.

When it flew over, it had changed from a sphere into an ancient book and landed in front of Ye Suifeng.

Ye Suifeng understood and took up his brush. Three large black characters appeared on the book.

"Book of Life and Death".
