My son is about to break through.

"What is the current situation in the underworld?"

Gu Qingfeng sat upright in the original position of King Qin Guang, while Gu Peng stood aside.

Upon hearing the former's words, Gu Peng replied respectfully.

"Your Majesty, the Underworld currently has 100,000 ghost soldiers and 500 ghost generals, most of whom are Xuan Tian Imperial Guards."

Only a few ghost soldiers and ghost generals came from other places.

In addition, the underworld has been accommodating more and more true spirits in recent years, and many of them are fortunate enough to retain their memories from their previous lives after entering the underworld.

In the beginning, these spirits caused quite a stir, and some even tried to break out of the underworld and return to the mortal realm.

However, thanks to the suppression of the 100,000 demon soldiers, no trouble was caused!

"But since then, Xiao Wang has discovered that the reason why these true spirits want to return to the mortal world is that they do not want to be reincarnated. In addition, the sins of these true spirits are not serious, so sending them directly to the eighteenth level of hell is only a temporary measure."

To say that you would completely annihilate them would be even more difficult.

"Therefore, in order to prevent them from causing trouble, the King built a ghost city to provide temporary shelter for these true spirits who do not wish to be reincarnated. When their lifespan is exhausted, they may go to reincarnation if they wish, but we will not force them if they do not wish to."

As a result, the unrest in the underworld has indeed decreased significantly.

At the same time, the presence of these true spirits has added a touch of vitality to the underworld, preventing it from becoming as lifeless as before!

Gu Peng recounted everything that had happened during this period truthfully.

period.

Gu Qingfeng did not interrupt the other party.

He nodded only after the other person finished speaking.

“You have done a good job in establishing a ghost city to accommodate true spirits. The underworld is not just a place of reincarnation; it is also a world that can be compared with the mortal realm.”

If the world of the living can accommodate living beings, then the world of the dead can certainly accommodate dead beings.

Those whose sins are not grave, or who have been punished in the eighteen levels of hell to cleanse their sins, may be reincarnated if they wish; otherwise, they may remain in the underworld.

Gu Qingfeng also agreed with Gu Peng's approach.

After all, once a true spirit possesses memories of its previous life, not all of them are willing to be reincarnated. Some are unwilling to be reincarnated, and even if they are forcibly suppressed, it is ultimately not a long-term solution.

Letting these true spirits choose for themselves, as is the case now, is a good approach.

In any case, the lifespan of the deceased is compared to the lifespan of the living.

simply put.

Even if a Great Emperor's lifespan is 12,000 years, after the other party dies, their true spirit enters the underworld and will also have a 12,000-year lifespan in the underworld.

When their lifespan in the underworld is exhausted, they can only be reincarnated.

if not.

It means that one's soul is scattered and completely disappears into the world, leaving no possibility of anything else.

and so.

Most of these true spirits will go on to reincarnate before their lifespan ends.

This way.

The workload of the underworld is reduced significantly, and many conflicts are also reduced.

It'll just mean waiting another ten thousand or so years at most. It's not a big problem.

"The Underworld is now teeming with more and more true spirits, and its manpower must be stretched thin. What are your thoughts on the Underworld Commander's situation?"

"General Yin—"

Gu Peng pondered for a moment, then spoke.

"Over the past thirty million years, a few ghost generals have successfully broken through to the Heavenly Venerable Realm and made significant contributions in the Underworld, thus qualifying as Yin Marshals!"

"Send them to see me."

"Yes!"

Gu Peng nodded and then sent out the message.

Soon.

Then four people arrived.

"Greetings, King Qin Guang!"

Upon their arrival, the four instinctively greeted Gu Peng.

Gu Peng said, "With the Lord of Mount Tai in person, how can you not pay your respects!"

Lord Taishan!

Upon hearing this, everyone was shaken to their core. Only then did they realize that Gu Peng, the King of Qin Guang, was standing to the side, while a figure sat upright in the main seat.

Just a glance.

A terrifying pressure immediately came over me.

The group, disregarding their shock, hurriedly bowed in greeting.

"Greetings, Your Excellency!"

"No gifts!"

Gu Qingfeng spoke calmly, his gaze falling on the four people in front of him, and immediately a corresponding message appeared.

Jiang Wuji!
Li Yuan!

Pei Xuan!

Lin Ze!

The first three were Xuan Tian Guards, but Gu Qingfeng had been in seclusion for 30 million years, and none of the later Xuan Tian Guards had ever seen his true face. Even if they had seen a picture of him, it was difficult for them to make much sense of him.

Gu Qingfeng was not surprised by this.

"You four have served in the underworld for many years and have made outstanding contributions. Today, I hereby appoint you as the Impermanent Underworld Messengers to assist King Qin Guang in managing the underworld and maintaining the order of reincarnation!"

The moment he finished speaking, the hall trembled, and an extremely mysterious power descended upon Lin Ze and the others.

That moment.

Then it became clear that all four of them were now wearing a set of underworld official robes, and their auras seemed to have become even more sinister.

Such a change naturally delighted them.

"Thank you, sir!"

"Go, serve the underworld well, otherwise you will not only lose your position as a messenger, but you will also be in danger of losing your life. There is a place in the eighteen levels of hell that is suitable for you."

If the problem is serious, the consequence will be the complete annihilation of the soul!

As Gu Qingfeng uttered his last words, a terrifying pressure descended upon him, causing the four to tremble and hastily bow in obedience.

He waved his hand.

Gu Qingfeng dismissed the others.

The investiture of four Impermanent Ones caused some loss to the essence of the Underworld, but it was not significant.

Thirty million years of accumulated resources have made the current underworld far stronger than the underworld of the past.

Let alone appointing four Impermanent Ones, even appointing forty Impermanent Ones would not be a problem.

Subsequently.

Gu Qingfeng looked at Gu Peng, who was standing to the side.

"In the future, you will be responsible for appointing officials in the underworld, but you must not appoint too many. At most, you can appoint a hundred underworld officials. As for underworld generals, you can appoint two!"

"Xiao Wang understands!"

Gu Peng nodded.

Gu Qingfeng nodded slightly, and then his figure disappeared.

……

Leave the underworld.

Gu Qingfeng no longer went into seclusion, but instead dealt with government affairs. At the same time, he personally took action to kill some of the evil gods who had invaded the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty.

The fall of dozens of evil god lords and the bloodshed of three evil god masters immediately shocked all sides.

The evil god clan was even more enraged.

"What a Xuan Tian Immortal Emperor! We haven't even made a move against him yet, but he's already attacking us, ordering the White Bone and Soul Devouring Divine Kingdoms to annihilate the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty and kill Gu Qingfeng in this battle!"

Within the Dark Moon Kingdom, the Dark Moon God Lord was furious.

Of the three fallen deities, two were from the Dark Moon Kingdom.

These two deities have not yet truly invaded the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty; they are merely stationed at the border of the Dark Moon Divine Kingdom.

But that's the case.

They were also directly confronted and swiftly killed.

This is the result.

This was something the Dark Moon God Lord found intolerable. All along...

Because of his fear of Gu Qingfeng's existence, the Dark Moon God Lord, although he allowed his evil gods to invade the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty, always exercised considerable restraint. The experts at the seventh tribulation level and above did not take action, and only allowed the other evil gods to take action.

After all.

The Dark Moon God Lord and the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty were locked in a life-or-death struggle.

Especially now that the Evil God Clan has been personally ordered by an Immortal to wage war against the Ziwei Immortal Court, most of their forces have been committed to the battlefield of the Ziwei Immortal Court.

Under these circumstances, the Dark Moon Divine Kingdom had no desire to provoke a Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty out of thin air.

Unexpectedly.

After so many years of back-and-forth exchanges, the Xuantian Immortal Dynasty suddenly decided to act out of line.

As the ruler of the Immortal Dynasty, Gu Qingfeng disregarded his reputation and directly killed three Divine Lords and dozens of Forbidden Lords, which was a major blow to the Dark Moon Divine Kingdom.

This breath.

The Dark Moon God Lord could not swallow this.

soon.

As news of the Dark Moon Kingdom spread, the White Bone Kingdom and the Soul Devouring Kingdom soon responded.

one year later.

The three great evil god kingdoms, together with an army of ten trillion evil gods, directly launched an attack on the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty.

As soon as this news came out.

This immediately shook the entire Xuan Tian Immortal Court. All the cultivators were shocked, and the many immortal officials in the court were arguing fiercely, but none of them could come up with a solution.

"Your Majesty, the three great evil god kingdoms are now coming on strong. It is said that the White Bone God Lord broke through to the Ninth Tribulation Realm 20 million years ago. His strength should not be underestimated."

"Indeed, in my opinion, the best course of action for now is to temporarily avoid direct confrontation."

"Avoid? How can we avoid it? The three great evil god kingdoms are now at our gates, and their armies, numbering in the trillions, will soon breach our territory. How can we possibly escape?"

Could it be that we should simply abandon all the Immortal Realms?

"In my opinion, we should unite with other forces, such as the Ziwei Immortal Court and the Taiyi Holy Land, so that we may have a chance to fight against the three great divine kingdoms!"

In the imperial court, numerous celestial officials expressed their differing opinions, each offering their own perspective.

But the difference is.

Not one of them offered to surrender.

The reason is simple.

Surrender to the evil god.

That is courting death.

Those who are not of our kind will not have a good ending even if they seek refuge with us.

Unless one abandons their human bloodline and becomes a true evil god, but even doing so carries risks.

What's more.

Anyone who can stand in the main hall is absolutely loyal to the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty. After all, they are selected through multiple rounds of selection, and with Gu Qingfeng still alive, no one else would dare to have any other thoughts.

and so.

There were those who advocated war, and there were those who advocated avoidance, but there wasn't a single person who wanted to surrender.

Just as Gu Qingfeng was about to speak, Gu Cang suddenly stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, an envoy from the Ziwei Celestial Court has arrived!"

"Xuan!"

Gu Qingfeng remained calm.

The fact that the Purple Star Immortal Court sent people over at this time is rather intriguing.

Gu Qingfeng was unsure of the other party's true intentions.

Soon.

Then they saw a guard leading a person into the Immortal Palace.

The latter bowed deeply to Gu Qingfeng: "Ling Chuan, Divine General of the Ziwei Immortal Court, greets the Xuan Tian Immortal Emperor!"

"No gift!"

"Thank you, Immortal Emperor!"

"I wonder what purpose the Purple Star Celestial Court has in sending you here?"

Gu Qingfeng looked down at Ling Chuan and asked calmly.

Seventy-two Divine Generals!
Sixth Tribulation Celestial Venerable Realm!
From Ling Chuan, he also witnessed the profound foundation of the Ziwei Immortal Court.

After all, Gu Qingfeng remembered that the Seventy-Two Divine Generals were only considered to be in the middle ranks of the Ziwei Immortal Court.

Above that are the Thirty-Six Divine Organs, the Twenty-Eight Constellations, the Twelve Divine Officials, the Five Marshals, the Four Extreme Emperors, and so on.

Now, he is merely one of the Seventy-Two Divine Generals and has already stepped into the Sixth Tribulation Heavenly Venerable Realm. Then, the subsequent Thirty-Six Yuan Chen will probably all be at least at the Seventh Tribulation Realm.

Such profound heritage.

It is unmatched by any other force.

Even the former Chaos Holy Land is worlds apart from the Ziwei Immortal Court.

after all.

In the Chaos Holy Land, there are only about twenty powerful individuals who have reached the seventh tribulation or higher.

Each of the Eighteen Heavenly Kings is at the Seventh Tribulation level.

If we compare the Eighteen Heavenly Lords to the Thirty-Six Yuan Chen, then the difference is obvious.

Not to mention.

The reason why the Ziwei Celestial Court can be called a Celestial Court is because such a power contains a true immortal Great Celestial Venerable.

Of the seventy-two celestial courts of the past, some have been destroyed and others have declined. To this day, there are not many celestial courts that have truly preserved their strength, and the Ziwei Celestial Court is one of them.

Ling Chuan respectfully said, "His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor has heard that the three evil god kingdoms intend to unite against the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty, so he sent me here to inquire whether the Immortal Emperor needs the support of the Ziwei Immortal Court."

After all, both the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty and the Zi Wei Immortal Court are human forces and should help each other.

As soon as these words came out.

Many people had joyful expressions on their faces.

If we could have the help of the Purple Star Celestial Court, things would be different.

After all, such an immortal power has a strong foundation, and if they really did this, it would be a great thing for the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty.

Gu Qingfeng was also somewhat surprised, but his expression remained unchanged, revealing nothing.

"The Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty is grateful for the Ziwei Heavenly Emperor's kindness, but we wonder how many cultivators the Ziwei Immortal Court plans to send to provide support?"

"A Star Constellation at the Eighth Tribulation Great Heavenly Venerable Realm, six Yuan Chen at the Seventh Tribulation Great Heavenly Venerable Realm, and twelve Divine Generals plus an army of 31 trillion!"

Ling Chuan said in a deep voice.

These words caused everyone's expressions to change once again.

This force.

That's already quite impressive.

Gu Qingfeng gave the other party a deep look, then nodded: "Alright, with the reinforcements from the Ziwei Immortal Court, the Evil God Clan should be no threat."

Currently, the three evil god kingdoms, with an army of ten trillion, are pressing in, and they will have to confront the Xuan Tian Immortal Dynasty in a direct confrontation within a month at most.

"I wonder how long it will take for the reinforcements from the Purple Star Celestial Court to arrive?"

"The Heavenly Emperor has already given the order, and now a trillion troops are stationed on the border of the Ziwei Immortal Court. They are just waiting for the Immortal Emperor to give the order, and then the army will take action immediately."

It will take anywhere from half a month to ten days to reach the front lines!

Ling Chuan's words made Gu Qingfeng nod.

"Very well, since that's the case, then I'll have to trouble you. Furthermore, I will personally lead the army into battle, and with our combined forces, we'll have a good chance of winning!"

"I have long heard of the Xuan Tian Immortal Emperor's extraordinary strength. Now that the Immortal Emperor is personally taking action, I believe the three great evil god kingdoms are not a threat!"

Ling Chuan also smiled, clearly acknowledging Gu Qingfeng's strength.

After all, the person in front of them made his name by stepping on the Chaos Holy Land, so such a reputation could not possibly be exaggerated.

Subsequently.

Ling Chuan then took his leave.

As Gu Qingfeng watched the other person's departing figure, the smile on his face also faded.

"The Purple Star Celestial Court!"

He muttered to himself.

To be honest, the reinforcements from the Purple Star Celestial Court this time were indeed somewhat unexpected. (End of Chapter)
