Hu Le sat beside the Xuan Yin Spring, continuously drawing out streams of spiritual spring water and refining drops of Xuan Yin Heavy Water from them.
The yin energy was so strong at this time that it soon attracted groups of ghosts.
Hu Le casually tossed out the Kan-Gen-Kun Flag, which hovered in mid-air, emitting streaks of seven-colored light.
The ghosts that tried to grab the Xuan Yin Heavy Water crashed into the seven-colored light and were all thrown away.
With the Kan-Gen-Kun Banner protecting him, Hu Le naturally didn't need to worry about the ghosts coming to harass him; he only needed to focus on refining the Xuan Yin Heavy Water.
After several months, he finally collected a gourdful of heavy water and immediately stopped.
Then he put away the gourd, stood up, and reached out to recall the Kan-Gen-Kun Flag.
Seeing that the seven-colored glow was no longer an obstacle, the ghosts immediately pounced.
"act recklessly!"
Hu Le muttered to himself, shook his bamboo staff, and a beam of innate five-colored divine light swept out like a bolt of lightning, engulfing all the wandering souls. After the sweep, the wandering souls were annihilated silently.
After clearing away the surrounding ghosts, he reached out and summoned a seven-colored auspicious cloud, stepped onto it, and the cloud slowly rose and then disappeared into the distance.
Next, he destroyed countless ghosts in the underworld, and as he arrived at the depths of the underworld, he could vaguely see a magnificent palace.
Hu Le stopped. The palace was a temporary palace set up by Houtu in the underworld, and there could not possibly be any ghosts inside, so he was about to turn around and leave.
Suddenly, a thought struck him, and he looked toward the Houtu Palace. In an instant, a streak of black light flew out of the Houtu Palace and hurtled toward him.
He subconsciously reached out and grabbed the dark light. Looking down, he saw a black jade plate quietly in his hand.
"This... could this be the legendary Wheel of Reincarnation?"
Hu Le quickly channeled his divine sense into it, and after a brief examination, he immediately confirmed his previous guess.
It was indeed a spiritual treasure born from the netherworld, named the Reincarnation Disc, which contained the secret of life and death reincarnation.
But... how could such a priceless treasure from the netherworld come to me for help?
Could it be that only I currently understand the mysteries of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and thus the workings of fate have caused this treasure to come to me automatically?
In a flash, he remembered the Earth Emperor Seal from before.
That was also a treasure of the Earthly Sovereign lineage, and now they've obtained the Reincarnation Disc.
Could it be that I have some great karmic connection with this tunnel?
But he is clearly a direct disciple of the Emperor's lineage!
Thinking about all this, Hu Le felt a bit amused and exasperated. However, since it was a primordial spiritual treasure delivered to his door, he figured he might as well accept it. Besides, deep down, he had long harbored some thoughts about establishing the cycle of reincarnation.
If his cultivation level were not insufficient at this time, he would have already opened up the Six Paths of Reincarnation in the Netherworld and seized that share of merit and fortune.
Just as he put away the Wheel of Reincarnation, dozens of streaks of light suddenly rose from the Houtu Palace and shot rapidly toward him.
Hu Le knew he couldn't stay here any longer. What if these people saw his face and Houtu came knocking on his door demanding the return of the Reincarnation Disc? Would he give it to her then?
He was unwilling to return it. The spiritual treasure itself was secondary; it concerned a great act of merit in the future, and he didn't want to miss it.
If they don't return it, they might offend Houtu and be plagued by troubles. When they start reincarnation in the future, they will need to rely on the Netherworld. If Houtu is determined to cause trouble, he may not be able to easily take root in the Netherworld.
In a flash, Hu Le understood everything. Before they could get close, he swayed his shoulders and transformed into an old man with white hair and a red robe, wrapped in a ball of red light and flying towards Yinshan.
A group of people chased after him frantically.
Seeing that his imitation of the escape light couldn't create any distance, Hu Le took a step forward, his figure flashing through the sky a few times before leaving everyone behind. After traversing space several more times, he completely left everyone far behind...
On the other side, Houtu is patrolling the underworld, clearing away the surrounding ghosts.
After all, she had invited so many fellow gods to come down and help her; as the host, she couldn't just stand by and watch.
But just as she had wiped out a patch of the Netherworld, a sudden thought struck her, and after calculating with her fingers, her expression immediately turned cold.
With a swift movement, he appeared in the palace, arriving at the entrance of a cave, and looked down.
Inside, a dense aura of the netherworld was churning endlessly, while the innate spiritual treasure that had been nurtured earlier had vanished.
Given her status and strength, she certainly wouldn't lack this innate spiritual treasure.
It was clearly conceived and guarded in her palace for millions of years, and was about to mature, but someone else stole the fruit. No one would be willing to accept that.
That's absolutely outrageous!
Who exactly is it?
Houtu suppressed her anger and was about to deduce the secrets of heaven once again.
By this time, those who had gone to chase after Hu Le had returned to the palace.
"Clan leader, please forgive us! We are incompetent. Not only did we fail to protect the treasure, but we also allowed the person who obtained it to escape. Please punish us as you see fit."
These are all experts from the Houtu tribe, most of whom are trusted confidants trained by Houtu. For example, the one who just spoke is called Da Yi, also known as Hou Yi. His cultivation and strength were all personally trained by Houtu.
"Did you see what that person looked like?" Houtu didn't dwell on the matter of punishment, but instead asked a crucial question.
"Well, that person seems to be..."
Who is it?
"It looks like the Styx Ancestor!"
"What? It's him? I have no grudge against him. Why would he come here to steal my magical treasure?" Houtu frowned slightly.
Kuafu, who was standing nearby, said, "Chieftain, it's him. Not only did Hou Yi see it, but we all saw it very clearly as well."
The others nodded in agreement.
"Ha! What a Styx! How dare he bully me like this! I will never let him get away with this!"
Seeing that her subordinates all spoke with one voice, Houtu believed them and, enraged, led her men charging menacingly towards the sea of blood...
After Hu Le transformed into the appearance of the Styx Ancestor and shook off Hou Yi and the others, he did not immediately change back to his original appearance. To be on the safe side, he even took a detour into the Blood Sea.
After Houtu and the others arrived at the sea of blood, Hu Le had already fled back to the Netherworld, pretending nothing had happened, and continued to sweep away the wandering souls everywhere...
"Styx! Come out here!" Houtu shouted from above the sea of blood.
The sound reached the Asura Palace, and the Styx Ancestor frowned slightly, wondering why Houtu, though he and Houtu were neighbors, had never interacted.
Besides, judging from the woman's tone, she didn't seem to have any good intentions!
However, he had never been afraid of anyone in this sea of blood, so naturally he wouldn't be a coward at this moment.
So, he swaggered out of the palace, enveloped in a cloud of bloody light, and soared into the sky, parting the sea of blood as he reached mid-air.
Looking up, he saw Houtu and the others standing opposite him, staring at him with unfriendly expressions...
