Chapter 95: Conversation with Old Friends (10,000 updates today)
The appearance of Wang Lingguan quickly attracted the attention of the sacred beings from all sides.
A Buddhist voice came from the deepest part of this hell.
He said: Be calm and unmoving like the earth, and be deep and profound like a hidden treasure.
When reciting the Buddhist scriptures in this way, Sanskrit sounds were heard everywhere, and only a Bodhisattva with a sick and painful face was seen.
He was wearing a blue and gold cassock, had kind eyes, a full moon behind his head, and held a bright Zen staff in his hand. He walked barefoot and steadily, step by step, out of hell. With every step he took, lotus flowers appeared under his feet, and he was holy and otherworldly.
Fashan went forward and clasped his hands together. He said respectfully, "Namo Amitabha, disciple Fashan greets Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva!"
I also saw many saints coming here to pay homage: I have met Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
Zhang Ling saw this legendary powerful being up close, but he also stood aside and looked at it carefully.
I have made great vows many times since ancient times, and I will not become a Buddha until hell is empty.
Seeing the true form of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva appear before my eyes, I felt a sense of peace and tranquility in my heart.
"I see the suffering of sentient beings in the six realms, and I vow to save and enlighten them. Namo Amitabha."
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva came before the corpses of the two Western Ghost Kings, bowed his head, closed his eyes and chanted Buddhist scriptures, and also prayed for the souls of the dead King Pingdeng, King Zhuanlun and King Chujiang. Although their souls were dead and it was difficult for them to enter the six realms of reincarnation, they were sent on their last journey because of good fate.
"Brother Zhang, you have wreaked havoc in the Netherworld this time, slaying two Ghost Emperors, three Yamas, the Nine Rivers Water Emperor, and a Five Lakes Great God. From now on, your fame will spread far and wide, and all the gods will know about it. It will be as well-known as thunder, and your name will be remembered by everyone."
The person on duty came to Zhang Ling's side and, regardless of the solemnity of the scene, started talking openly through whispers.
"Brother, please stop teasing me. I had no choice but to do this, and I almost hurt my best friend. I'm filled with shame."
"Don't panic, Brother Zhang. As soon as I heard your message, I immediately rushed to Jiutian Yingyuan Mansion to report the matter. You see, the Heavenly Venerable accompanying me this time is the famous Wang Lingguan. Don't worry, with this powerful being backing you up, no other deity will dare to stop you this time!"
"I have killed several saints from the Netherworld here, so I'm afraid I'll be held accountable in the future. However, it's already happened, and I don't regret it. As someone who walks the heavens and earth, patrolling the realms, I should be fearless."
"Don't worry, Brother Zhang. You have the Nine Heavens Ying Yuan Palace backing you up, so don't be afraid! The Netherworld has been at odds with the Heavenly Court since ancient times, with many factors intertwined. You're going to the Netherworld this time for substance, reason, and justice. The sacredness of the Underworld is indeed for face, access, and power. The brawl here has little to do with Nian Wuwang; it's all your own fault."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ling looked from afar at Wang Lingguan, who was dressed in golden armor and a red robe, with three eyes and a frown on his face. He was filled with respect and replied to the God of Time, "Brother, with two great beings in front of us, we should not talk behind their backs."
The two of them stopped talking and waited until Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva had completed the salvation. Then they began to discuss the aftermath.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is the head of the underworld, and Wang Lingguan is the leader of Zhang Ling's side, and also represents the heaven.
The other saints stood quietly by, silent.
"I am hereby ordered by the Thunder God of Universal Transformation of the Nine Heavens Ying Yuan Palace to enter this netherworld to investigate Nian Wuwang's crimes. This matter involves many people, and I will convene a three-court trial, with only the Thunder Department, the Underworld Department, and the Mountain and Water Department in charge. I will take Nian Wuwang's spirit away and bring it to the Nine Heavens Ying Yuan Palace. What do you think of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva?"
Wang Lingguan's body was covered with dazzling golden light, and the divine rainbow was brilliant and dazzling. In his left hand he held a lacquered gold seal, and in his right hand he held a long golden whip.
Once this word was spoken, all the saints dared not have any objection.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva put his hands together and chanted: "Namo Amitabha Buddha", and then said: "Good!"
After saying this, the Bodhisattva took away Fashan and Xumi's guardian beast, the Flying Centipede, and fled straight into the depths of hell, where they soon disappeared.
Zhang Ling looked at Fashan and left, but he was not in a hurry. With Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva protecting him, he could walk anywhere in the underworld without worrying about his safety.
Wang Lingguan saw Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva leave and immediately pulled a purple gold scroll from his sleeve. He unrolled it slowly and untied. The sound was like a bell, echoing through the netherworld. It was the announcement of the matters concerning the Trial by the Three Courts.
When the sacred beings from all directions of the underworld saw Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva nod and disappear, they dared not have any opinions and all nodded in agreement.
Upon seeing this, Wang Lingguan took the purple gold scroll and said, "In that case, I will be waiting for you all at Jiutian Yingyuan Mansion!"
After saying this, he glanced at the god on duty, who immediately understood what he meant and led Zhang Ling and others to evacuate from the depths of the underworld.
Before leaving, Zhang Ling took Nian Wuwang's soul from the wooden basin and handed it to Wang Lingguan.
This way, the money is in the bag.
Wang Lingguan stood alone, motionless, with his three eyes half open, guarding the rear.
The Netherworld Saints dared not intervene and watched Zhang Ling and the others leave without even uttering a word.
When Zhang Ling finally returned to the world of the living, Wang Lingguan said, "Goodbye!"
Then he stepped onto the golden avenue and turned to leave.
After a long while, these ghostly saints finally sighed.
There are also those who are unwilling and angry: Damn it!
Most of them are silent.
Even so, it can only be self-dissolved.
When Wang Lingguan stepped into the underworld, no one dared to say anything. This Heavenly Lord was famous for starting a fight at the slightest disagreement. If given the chance, he would most likely break into the underworld.
No other deity dared to stop it except Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, the Northern Yin Fengdu Emperor and that goddess.
As for Taiyi Jiuku Tianzun and Tianqi Rensheng Emperor, it is even more impossible for them to go to the underworld to trouble Wang Lingguan.
