Yuan Jing sat on the high platform. After an unknown amount of time, the voice of the gatekeeper stone statue came.
"Master, it's time to go to Jiagan Tianzhi again."
Jiagan Tianzhi is a time, an important time for Wangchuan Ancient City to open the gates and release water. The gates open to open the Naihe Bridge, and the water released is the Merciless Water.
The three souls and six spirits of the deceased enter the Wangchuan River, which must be mixed with various thoughts. The function of the Naihe Bridge is to erase them, so as to prevent the complex thoughts from gathering into a ball and deriving some kind of evil demon that is difficult to kill.
This is an extremely important part and power in the ancient city of Wangchuan, and its status is equivalent to the Three Life Wells when the reincarnation still existed. It can be said that without this part, the entire dojo will be irreparably damaged.
Yuan waved his hand and put the two jade slips into his sleeves. He took a step forward and in an instant he arrived at the southeast side of the ancient city of Wangchuan.
There is an ancient bridge across the Wangchuan River here, which is more than ten miles long, ninety-nine feet wide, and less than a few feet wide, flowing southwest.
A bronze ghost lion stands on the bridge, surrounded by clouds and mist.
In the past, there were the Sun Wandering God and the Night Wandering God, who led 8,000 underworld soldiers to guard day and night. There was also a divine beast called the Six Cries, which could reach the nine heavens and the nine underworlds to prevent the living from crossing the river.
Now only the Lord of Tongyou is left.
Yuan raised his hand and gently supported the bronze ghost lion. The thin layer of mist on the bridge suddenly became thicker, and then fell into the Forgotten River like flowing water.
The ruthless water saves the lovers. The obsession in the river that has transformed into various strange and twisted human figures melts away when it meets the water, just like the foam produced by pouring tea, which disappears in a flash.
The last time he adjusted the yin and yang of Wangchuan and eliminated distracting thoughts was when Wangchuan Ancient City was first established. Now that the world is just beginning, many things need to be done by him personally.
"We need to recruit some Yin Gods. Shi'er, find some time for you to go to the mortal world and pick some heroes to become Yin Gods."
Those who do evil can become evil ghosts, and those who do virtue can become gods.
I don't know if it's some kind of coincidence, or if it follows the unknown rules of heaven and earth. Whether in the cultivation world or in modern times, there are almost no villains among those who have been deified throughout the ages, and most of them are virtuous people.
This is even more true in the spiritual world; only people of great virtue can become Yin Gods.
The reason is very simple. Only people with virtue can be worshipped after death. Offering incense and fire is a vital part of the Yin spirit. For people without virtue, the only thing that can leave their corpse intact is smoke.
"Master, I'm afraid we can't recruit the evil spirits from the mortal world." said the gatekeeper statue.
"Why?"
Yuan asked, and the gatekeeper stone statue's next answer became a little hesitant. He replied: "You mentioned this matter to me before. The next day, I separated my mind and spirit and descended to the mortal world, but was intercepted by the underworld."
"The underworld? In that case, why not just go find them directly? The underworld in the mortal world should be the ancient city Fangs."
Yuan lowered his eyelids, and there was a hint of mystery in his eyes. The Yellow Springs and Wangchuan were moved, and the status of the Lord of Tongyou was flattened in all directions.
The Forgetful River is three thousand miles long, and countless evil demons have bowed their heads.
"I don't care about the living, the dead all belong to me, is there anyone in the world who is not my subject?"
"This... they don't listen to Xuan, they only listen to one person."
"who?"
Yuan turned his head slightly, and the gatekeeper suddenly felt a great deal of pressure. He was about to answer, but Yuan had already known the general situation through some means.
The underworld in the mortal world was canonized by someone else, this person was very powerful, and he himself could not find out the other person's identity.
The gatekeeper replied cautiously: "They said they only respect the immortal laws and listen to the immortals who are still alive."
“…”
Yuan looked up at the sky without a word, silently restraining his breath and status
I can’t beat him.
The gatekeeper stone statue said again: "The position of the underworld has been taken away. I am afraid it will be difficult for us to maintain this place. I think what that person said makes sense. Although I cannot see the secrets of heaven, I have some talent in exorcising evil spirits and avoiding disasters. This trip will be more good than bad."
Yuan shook his head and said, "I have no grudge against him. He is the living one, and I cannot harm him or disturb the yin and yang."
The gate-guarding statue added, "Blocking the path is a life-and-death feud."
The true body of the gatekeeper stone statue is the spirit of the ancient city of Wangchuan. It and Yuan prosper together and suffer together. In his opinion, the method provided by the ancient Taoist sect is worth trying, even at the risk of becoming an enemy of Li Changsheng.
In the face of the foundation of enlightenment, all risks are acceptable.
In the final analysis, it was fate that hit their sore spot. Adjusting yin and yang step by step could only achieve the Tao, but it was impossible to achieve enlightenment.
To achieve enlightenment is to go against the will of Heaven and to fight for one's life with Heaven. So how can one achieve enlightenment through merits and virtues?
The gate-guarding statue understands this, and it is impossible for the master not to understand it.
"You said that the Heavenly Dao has dissipated. Now, without any shackles, is the most likely time to achieve Dao. While he has not yet recovered to his peak, the calamity of the Dao is enough to kill him!"
Yuan looked at the stone statue guarding the gate. Although the other party had no eyes, he could feel a trace of madness emanating from its soul.
When the benefits are big enough, all dangers can become risks that can be taken.
Because Li Changsheng was a human, Yuan paid more attention to the human race after his reincarnation and had seen some of the memories and obsessions of humans' three souls and six spirits.
There is a group of people who have this trait, and humans call them gamblers. When a person wants to make money, he will be deceived, and his parents can't stop him when he gets excited.
Why can't we apply this to ourselves?
Gambling is the nature of all living beings in the world.
Try it?
Yuan quickly suppressed this thought at the critical moment, he still felt that this approach was not the right one.
It's not just that he's afraid of Li Changsheng's martial arts, but also his Taoism.
Yin and Yang are in order, so how could he, as the master of the underworld, kill the living? Wouldn't this go against the law of reincarnation?
Yuan shook his head and walked towards the Samsara Hall, saying, "I will be in seclusion for 10 years. If there is still a chance in ten years, we can discuss it again."
Opportunity is fleeting, once lost, it will never come back.
The only way now is to let the opportunity slip away, otherwise he is afraid that he will fall into the hands of the ancient Taoist sect after repeated entanglements and hesitations.
