Master Hui'an's eyes grew brighter and brighter.
Her senior brother didn't die!
This is really great.
"It was a slip of the tongue. To be precise, his name is on the Book of Life and Death; his soul hasn't been scattered. Our definition of life and death is a bit different from yours in the mortal realm," King Yama quickly explained.
Master Hui'an: "..."
This Wheel-Turning King knows how to explain.
She gave a forced smile.
Even if her senior brother died, it's still good that his soul didn't dissipate, which proves that she still has a chance to find him.
"Give me the relic," said Abbess Hui'an to Zhang Tianle.
Zhang Tianle handed the box containing the ancient Buddha relics to Abbess Hui'an.
"where are you going?"
Just as the group was talking, the Ghost Emperor quietly retreated, and just as he was about to disappear from their sight, King Qin Guang appeared in front of him, looking at him with a smile.
Ghost Emperor: "!!!"
Even the usually aloof Ghost Emperor was almost scared into making a meme-worthy expression.
"Hahaha... I thought I wouldn't disturb your pleasant conversation, so I'll head back." The Ghost Emperor smiled awkwardly, but inwardly he was cursing.
As soon as he moves out of their sight, he will definitely run away without saying a word.
Good heavens!
All ten Yama Kings appeared.
They were all chatting and laughing with that boy.
Who exactly is Zhang Tianle?
Moreover, King Qin Guang himself came to stop him.
What kind of person did he offend?
Could this be a powerful figure descended from above to undergo tribulation?
Besides, he really couldn't understand how anyone could have the strength to rival a top-level Celestial Master at such a young age, and how anyone could summon the Ten Kings of Hell with a single token, while the Ten Kings of Hell showed him great respect.
"The Ghost Emperor is leaving so soon?" Hearing the commotion, Zhang Tianle and the others turned their gazes to the Ghost Emperor Li Tian. Zhang Tianle asked with a smile, "Leaving without saying goodbye is a bit unethical."
The body of the Demon Emperor Li Tian was stiff.
Being watched by the Ten Kings of Hell suddenly increased the pressure.
The Ghost Emperor chuckled dryly and replied to Zhang Tianle, "I'm just anxious because the women at home are waiting for me!"
If it weren't for the ghost immortal's body, he would have been terrified by Zhang Tianle.
The more you know, the faster you die.
Having lived for over a thousand years, he understood this principle very well.
Now he roughly guessed Zhang Tianle's identity, and he was genuinely afraid that Zhang Tianle would kill him to silence him.
"We've already waited, what's a little longer?" Zhang Tianle walked up to the Ghost Emperor, and the other ten Yama Kings followed, their eyes fixed on the Ghost Emperor, Li Tian.
The Ghost Emperor Li Tian nodded vigorously: "Yes! Yes! If there is anything you need me to do, please feel free to give the order!"
The Demon Emperor Li Tian was almost in tears.
He'd do anything as long as Zhang Tianle was willing to let him go.
The Ten Kings of Hell before him were at the level of ghosts and gods, and even among ghosts and gods, they were among the very best. He, on the other hand, was just a minor karami who was not even a ghost immortal. For the Kings of Hell to crush him would be easier than crushing an ant.
So he was very willing to go whenever he could get something done.
"Then tell us, Ghost Emperor, what is your purpose in coming to Qingxia Ancient Temple?" Zhang Tianle stared at the Ghost Emperor's face and activated the Yingtian Heart Sutra.
When asked about this awkward topic, Li Tiangui Emperor's expression stiffened: "It's obvious that we've come to compete for the Ghost Immortal's body that Qingxia Ancient Temple is suppressing. If we obtain the Ghost Immortal's body, we'll have a chance to enter the Ghost Immortal Realm."
The Ten Kings of Hell were not surprising.
This is indeed a shortcut for upgrading from Ghost Emperor to Ghost Immortal, but this method is mostly used by old Ghost Emperors who have difficulty breaking through to Ghost Immortal, whose Ghost Essence is about to run out, and who do not want to be reincarnated, as a last resort.
After all, once someone uses a ghost immortal's body to break through to the ghost immortal realm, they will be the weakest ghost immortal. Many skills available to ghost immortals who break through using this method will be unusable.
Moreover, they have virtually no chance of reaching the realm of ghosts and gods.
The Ghost Emperor Li Tian before them possessed top-tier talent at the Ghost Emperor level. For him to attempt a breakthrough using the Ghost Immortal level would be nothing short of asking for trouble.
Given his aptitude, he only needs to endure another thousand years to reach the Ghost Immortal Realm.
"Don't take such shortcuts; it will only harm you," King Qin Guang warned.
As soon as he finished reminding him, his eyes narrowed.
Something's not right.
Even if he hadn't reminded him, a Ghost Emperor with such talent would definitely know this.
"I don't want to ruin my future either." The Ghost Emperor gave a bitter smile. "Actually, you gentlemen should be more aware of the current situation than I am. If I don't break through to the Ghost Immortal Realm as soon as possible, I'm afraid I'll be eliminated when the next great era arrives."
Upon hearing the Ghost Emperor's words, the Ten Kings of Hell exchanged glances, their expressions subtly changing.
How did he know about this secret?
No more than fifteen people in the entire underworld know about this.
Only a handful of people in the mortal realm knew about this.
As for the immortal realm...
King Qin Guang glanced at the sky.
In that great catastrophe, the Heavenly Court perished in order to protect humanity, and all the gods of the Immortal Realm, led by the Sage, died. The Heavenly Dao was also severely damaged as a result, so the Immortal Realm no longer exists.
As for the Buddhist realm, the Buddha, belonging to the Chinese Zen sect, also sacrificed himself to help the gods of the celestial realm build a Great Wall with his golden body, keeping foreign enemies out of the realm.
Originally, they were also going to their deaths, but the Land of Reincarnation was a vital place of origin for the human world, and it was necessary to leave someone to guard it. After the Goddess Houtu led the Emperor of Fengdu and other top underworld gods into it with the Reincarnation Disc, the Six Paths Reincarnation Disc was accidentally shattered in that battle. The Goddess Houtu was afraid that the origin of the human world would be damaged, so she used most of the origin to refine this Reincarnation Well. Otherwise, the Goddess Houtu might not have disappeared in that battle.
This group of mediocre underworld officials were entrusted by the goddess to manage the Reincarnation Well.
However, in the last two hundred years, those extraterrestrial demons have colluded with traitors to try to break through the Great Wall built by the gods themselves and let the extraterrestrial demons in.
These gods, who were still clinging to life, naturally couldn't allow these malignant tumors to destroy the human race that the gods had sworn to protect at the cost of their own fall. So, wherever they discovered something unusual, they would strike it down.
However, their power is limited, and over the years, suppressing the riots of the twin trees in the reincarnation space has already used up too much of their power. They are sometimes truly powerless against these disgusting tumors that are impossible to kill or eradicate.
This has led to the current unstable situation, and as time goes on, this situation will only become more and more serious, causing various disturbances and unrest.
The more turbulent the times, the more we must remain calm and steady, preventing chaos from arising. Once chaos erupts, and if calamity arises within, it will affect the sacred Great Wall forged by the divine body, causing it to collapse.
Humans are in danger.
