Practice begins with immortality

After Wang Bai passed through the dark green vortex, he came to the room.

As soon as he entered the wing room, Wang Bai heard a deep male voice, "Friend Wang Mu, please sit over here."

Before he finished speaking, a desk appeared. Wang Bo walked over and sat down cross-legged. Sitting across from him was Gu Hun.

After seeing Wang Bo take his seat, Gu Hun pondered for a moment, then said, "Friend Wang Mu, I am Gu Hun, the Left General under the throne of the Heavenly Blood King of the Underworld. To be more precise, I am one of his clones."

King Tianxue, one of the Hades, is said to be transformed from the blood of the Styx. He is inseparable from King Mingxuan, who was transformed from the Yin energy of the Styx.

“…Friend Wang Xianyou, the name Wang Mu isn’t your real name, right?!”

Gu Hun said suddenly.

"Yes and no."

"It seems like there's something special going on." Upon hearing this, Gu Hun just smiled.

Then, the ancient soul continued, "Through the trace of power you left behind, I used some methods to see your cause and effect. It was a vague mist."

"I never thought you were someone who had escaped your predetermined fate. Indeed, someone like you is worthy of that lord's favor."

Gu Hun said with some emotion.

Breaking free from fate, Wang Bo heard this for the second time. It was obvious that the "sir" mentioned by Gu Hun was Chu Tian'a.

"General Gu definitely didn't ask me to come here just to talk to me. If you have anything to say, please tell me. As long as I can do it, I will definitely help."

"My friend, you are a real person."

Seeing this, Gu Hun also made his point clear. He said: "I would like to ask Wang Xianyou to go to a place and help me find someone."

"Where and who?"

"It's a special world in the Immortal Realm."

The ancient soul explained to Wang Bo, "The Immortal Realm is our collective name for the world community transformed by the immortals. The person I want you to find is the descendant of an old friend from before my original body entered the underworld."

"Oh." Hearing this, Wang Bai also became interested and asked: "Can the Hades join?"

"Of course." The ancient soul smiled faintly and explained to Wang Bo: "After a living being dies, its true spirit descends into the underworld. Those with special true spirits or outstanding character are absorbed into the underworld's system. This is how the first members of the underworld came into being."

"In addition, every person in the Underworld has the qualification to recommend others to join the Underworld. The token Xue Qi gave you has this function."

"Friend Wang, what are your thoughts on joining the Underworld?"

"No."

........................

Afterwards, through conversation, Wang Bai understood Gu Hun's request.

Before entering the Underworld, Gu Hun had a younger brother. Because of this relationship, he took good care of his brother's descendants after entering the Underworld. After all, they were still considered his relatives, and there were distinctions between close relatives and distant relatives. As the General of the Underworld, Gu Hun certainly had these powers.

When the Ancient Soul arrived in the Immortal Realm and supported the All-Spirit Alliance as ordered, several of his descendants came here with him. The Ancient Soul left a mark of protection on them and allowed them to train within the Immortal Realm.

A hundred years ago, the Ancient Soul sensed that one of their individuals' marks had been broken. That individual and a team of members of the All-Spirit Alliance were trapped in a newly discovered world. Upon sensing this, the Ancient Soul's true form immediately tore through space and traveled to the site of the incident.

"That's a strange world," the ancient soul said with a frown. "There's a strange power there. My original body only existed there for half an hour before being forcibly expelled and severely injured. That's why I'm temporarily in charge of the Ten Thousand Spirits Alliance."

"Later, after experiments, it was found that alien creatures with a lifespan of over 100,000 years could hardly exist in that world for long."

"Afterwards, we sent many people under the age of 100,000 into that world to try to rescue the trapped people. But all were unsuccessful. Less than 10% of them successfully emerged from that world. Not only that, after they emerged, they all lost their memories of their time in that world. Even exploring the cause and effect of those who emerged was useless because their cause and effect had been interfered with."

"We once attempted to send individuals under the age of 100,000, who were well-versed in the principles of cause and effect, but unfortunately, doing so would have been tantamount to their own death, so our plan was rejected. Therefore, we know nothing about the conditions in that world."

"However, you are different." The ancient soul said with a gleaming gaze, "As someone who has escaped your original fate, your karma has created a layer of fog that can resist external interference. This fog will continue to change in quality as your cultivation level increases."

"Besides that, I originally thought that after refining those immortal bones, you would at most reach the level of the sixth tribulation. But I still underestimated you. I actually let you reach the level of the seventh tribulation."

"That makes things simple. With your current abilities, going deep into that world and rescuing the missing people is a sure thing."

"Friend Wang, this matter—"

"Don't worry." Before Gu Hun could finish his words, Wang Bo interrupted him, "This is my duty. I will do my best."

Wang Bo had received help from the All-Spirits Alliance, so naturally he wanted to repay the favor. Furthermore, it was only a matter of traveling to a certain world to search for the missing people, which wasn't a big deal for him.

"In that case, I'll leave it to you, Immortal Friend Wang."

Finally, Gu Hun pondered for a moment, then said, "By the way, there is one more thing I want to tell you."

"The left arm bone you refined earlier was the one we brought out from that world."

......................................

After accepting the assignment, Wang Bo planned to wait a while before setting off again. He needed to adapt to the surge of power first, and he also had some other matters to attend to.

The secret vault, Wang Bai had only been away from there for half an hour.

Seeing Wang Bo return, Yang Ji immediately stepped forward and asked, "I wonder what you discussed with that gentleman, Mr. Wang?"

"It's just an errand."

After saying this, Wang Bai walked up to Lao Gu and said, "Lao Gu, I have something important to do. I will return the trace of true spirit I took from you."

Before he finished speaking, a streak of light flew out from between Wang Bai's eyebrows and flew straight into the skull.

"This can be considered a good parting."

After doing all this, without waiting for Gu Jinling to react, Wang Bai walked straight into a space door he had opened.

Next, he was going to the Wanlian League’s library. Most of the books there came from the underworld, which would be of great help to him.
