My Mythical Path to Immortality in Another World
Chapter 104 Reincarnation, Underworld, City God, Yin God
Reincarnation is a product of absolute order created by the goddess Houtu, designed to maintain the healthy continuation of the world.
Houtu is a primordial deity. In order to maintain the operation of reincarnation, she cannot leave the cycle of reincarnation. However, she also knows about the three paths forcing primordial deities to hide.
It's just that because its power is difficult to escape the cycle of reincarnation, it cannot punish the three realms.
Guess if she's holding back a vengeance and giving Sandao a hard time.
The law of reincarnation is an absolute order recognized by the Great Dao, an order that the three paths must also abide by.
Therefore, once the rules of reincarnation are challenged, the Great Gods can use the Great Dao's decrees to punish all beings in the world.
Even the Three Paths could not stop the power of Houtu, the goddess who controls the laws of reincarnation and the decrees of the Great Dao.
According to information from the void, the Great Goddess Houtu fell from the position of the Lord of Yin and Yang Creation to the Lord of Reincarnation in order to maintain the absolute order of the laws of reincarnation.
Its intention is self-evident: no one can defy the order of reincarnation, not even oneself.
Can San Dao truly claim that he has never violated the order of reincarnation in the past hundreds of millions of years?
Naturally there is.
Even those in the void felt a bit intimidated when mentioning Houtu, a character who could use her own innate divine body and true spirit to create reincarnation.
However, for billions of years, they have turned a blind eye to the actions of the three paths that disrupt the cycle of reincarnation. No one would believe that they had no ulterior motives.
Therefore, the innate deities generally believed that the Great Goddess Houtu was keeping accounts and preparing to deal a severe blow to the Three Paths.
Even the innate saints who were cut off from their path, unable to transcend, and forced into the Land of Ruins were able to maintain their original intentions because of the existence of the Great Goddess Houtu.
It can be said that Houtu was the last hope of the innate deities.
For matters like the cycle of human civilization, which could result in the deaths of hundreds of billions of lives in a short period of time, the Earthly Path is even more concerned than the Heavenly Path and the Human Path.
Of course, the previous resurgence of human civilization did not involve so many people; this only began in the last million years.
The total number of human beings in the three dynasties of Xia, Shang, and Zhou was only about one billion.
It was Qin Shi Huang who divided the land, gathered the human race together, and made it more suitable for the human race to multiply and thrive, which is why the population of the later Human Emperor Era eventually reached about five billion.
This was only a five-fold increase, yet it caused chaos in the underworld.
The Great Zhao Dynasty has increased fortyfold, how could the underground passage not be anxious?
When Zhao Xuan contacted Zhao Mingcheng, it turned out to be exactly as he had predicted.
Zhao Xuan wanted to tell Zhao Mingcheng not to pay attention, but Zhao Mingcheng said that in addition to the underworld gods, the human sage Zhu Guang had also come, and that the underworld god claimed to be an old friend of Zhao Xuan.
Zhao Xuan thought for a moment and told Zhao Mingcheng that he was in a special period and could not appear within the Three Paths. So he asked Zhao Mingcheng to remind the two to be careful, and he would use his supernatural powers to guide them to the cave to discuss the matter.
The power of the Yin-Yang Creation Law absorbed the principles of the 108 supernatural talismans to complete itself. This does not mean that these supernatural powers disappeared, but rather that the fundamental mysteries of these supernatural powers were integrated into the power of the Yin-Yang Creation Law.
Zhao Xuan can still use these supernatural abilities, and they are even more powerful and easier to use.
This is also why Zhao Xuan recreated the Heavenly Gang version of the Flower Blooming Moment. The Limitless version of the Flower Blooming Moment contains Limitless Power, which cannot be touched by the Yin-Yang Creation Law.
Using the causal method of the Seven Arrows of Nailhead, they locked onto Zhao Mingcheng, tore open the void, and used the reversal of Yin and Yang to obscure the heavenly secrets. Then, using the Shifting Stars technique, they moved Zhao Mingcheng's Yin spirit and Zhu Guang to the cave of the snake vines.
Although he did not launch an attack, Zhao Xuan still used the Righteous Shadowless Technique to bless Yin Shen and Zhu Guang, preventing the tunnel from locking onto him through the two of them.
Standing upright without shadow is a kind of void supernatural power that allows one to hide in imaginary space and avoid the influence of external forces.
However, it left a shadow on the outside world.
The fact that it stands upright without casting a shadow is quite mysterious, making it difficult for others to notice that what is in front of them is just a projection.
Conversely, when Zhao Xuan uses the "Upright Shadowless" technique, the recipient cannot realize that they are actually just a projection of themselves.
After meeting the three, Zhao Xuan realized that he actually recognized the Yin God.
Back then, didn't Zhao Xuan absorb the Yin energy of a pair of golden shackles and silver chains in Beichuan? Then, this pair of golden shackles and silver chains followed Zhao Xuan for decades until he entered the depths of Beichuan and escaped their pursuit.
The Yin spirit that came this time was General Silver Lock, one of the pair of golden shackles and silver chains.
How dare they call this their old friend?
However, it's not surprising that they are old acquaintances. The Ten Yin Marshals may seem to be ten races, but they are actually ten innate beings born with the cycle of reincarnation, whose souls have differentiated.
It is equivalent to a clone of a primordial being.
The moment a primordial being sees an acquired being, that is cause and effect.
Given the tradition that the underworld does not recognize the living, the karmic connection between the two was not shallow. Therefore, even though they only met once and had no communication, they could still be considered old acquaintances.
"Yin Suo (Zhu Guang) greets the Great Sage," the two said, bowing.
Zhao Xuan returned the greeting and led the three into the hall.
There are two palaces in the Serpent's Cave Heaven, one belonging to the Serpent himself, and the other specially prepared by the Serpent for Zhao Xuan.
After the four were seated, plant spirits served them fruits, snacks, and fragrant tea.
Zhao Xuan looked at Zhu Guang, cupped his hands and said, "I apologize for not being able to welcome you, sage, from afar."
Zhu Guang returned the greeting, saying, "I dare not. It is because the Great Sage assisted the Human Emperor of this era in suppressing the Earth Star for ten thousand years that the heavens and the earth are clear and bright that we humans are truly great sages."
Zhao Xuan smiled and said, "Please have some tea and fruit."
Zhao Mingcheng couldn't wait any longer. He casually picked up the fruit on the table, swallowed it in one gulp, and that was the end of it.
Zhao Mingcheng closed his eyes and entered a meditative state, a mysterious aura rising from his body.
Yin Suo and Zhu Guang were amazed after reading it. After taking a sip of tea, they were stunned for a moment, then quickly drank it down.
Then, with a solemn expression, he asked, "Could this be an Enlightenment Tea of the Innate Level?"
Zhao Xuan nodded and waved his hand, and the plant spirits poured tea for the two of them.
He said, "Back then, I was fortunate enough to obtain a seed of an innate enlightenment tea tree. After many years of cultivation, it has miraculously become spiritualized. I hope you two are satisfied."
He then pointed to the blood-red fruit and said, "Back then, we also obtained a Primordial Blood Tree. It was fortunate enough to be spiritualized as well. You two can have a taste."
After hearing Zhao Xuan's words, the two of them lit up and immediately picked up the Source Blood Fruit and started eating it.
Then, like Zhao Mingcheng, he entered a meditative state.
At this moment, Zhao Mingcheng had already woken up and exchanged a smile with Zhao Xuan.
Then he said, "It's a pity that such a precious object has been wasted."
He then said, "You've never brought out a Source Blood Fruit Serpent Vine of this caliber before. Are you perhaps afraid that I can't afford the price?"
Zhao Xuan chuckled and explained, "You've wronged the Serpent Vine. The Origin Blood Divine Tree's grade only improved after it was spiritualized, and after spiritualization, it possesses protective power, equivalent to a ninth-realm cultivator. If it didn't want to, the Serpent Vine would find it difficult to take even one fruit."
Zhao Mingcheng laughed after hearing this, "So it turns out that Snake Vine is just being stubborn."
Zhao Xuan's heart stirred, and he also laughed.
Back then, the Enlightenment Tea Tree and the Source Blood Divine Tree were not spiritualized. Apart from a slight change in grade and a slightly stronger intelligence, they were just like ordinary plants and trees, without any power to defend themselves.
It's nothing more than that over time, as one gathers spiritual energy, it forms an array with spiritual and Daoist essence to protect oneself.
However, once the formation is broken, they are powerless to resist.
Previously, whether it was the Enlightenment Tea or the Source Blood Fruit, the snake vines were allowed to pick them at will.
However, after the Enlightenment Tea Tree and the Source Blood Divine Tree were spiritualized, they gained free forms and were at the innate level, so the serpent vines could no longer harm them.
To pick tea leaves and fruit, one must obtain the consent of Jin Yan and Zhen Wu.
As the level increases, the quality of the Enlightenment Tea and the Source Blood Fruit also improves.
However, the new tea leaves and fruits that grew as their level increased were treasures to the two of them, and they would not let the snake vines pick them.
Even the remaining fruit required extortion from the snake vine before it could be harvested.
So when Zhao Mingcheng went to trade with Snake Vine, sometimes Snake Vine would get beaten up by the two men and then told Zhao Mingcheng that this year's harvest was bad.
Zhao Mingcheng was completely taken aback. When did spiritual creatures start to depend on the weather and the harvest?
The Source Blood Fruit is not only useful for cultivators like Zhao Mingcheng who practice ancient techniques and condense true blood, but it is useful for all cultivators.
The Source Blood Fruit purifies the bloodline, and the condensed true blood can be said to be improving one's foundation. True blood is the essence blood containing the power of true spirit.
After all, the acquired true spirit is as insignificant as dust, and it is in comparison to the innate true spirit and the innate sacred spirit.
There are countless levels between dust particles and mountains.
Other cultivators can consume Source Blood Fruit to enhance their essence, especially those at the Emperor Realm who require the Three Elements to be at their peak. Source Blood Fruit can help Emperor Realm cultivators replenish their essence.
Similarly, the Enlightenment Tea can help replenish the divine essence of those in the Emperor Realm.
Therefore, cultivators of the Great Zhao Dynasty can quickly cultivate the essence and spirit of the three elements to reach the superior level of dual elements.
If there were enough Source Blood Fruits at this level, Zhao Mingcheng could even raise his True Blood to the Human Emperor Realm and become a true Human Emperor.
It is only someone like Zhao Xuan, who possesses the Golden Flower Enlightenment, who can simultaneously control the power of the sun, the power of the moon, and the power of the Purple Star, and thus condense the Three Lights Divine Water.
Then he comprehended the power of strong interaction force, combining the principles of the Three Lights Divine Water with the One Yuan Heavy Water, so that the snake vine of the One Yuan Heavy Water could also infinitely condense the Three Lights Divine Water using spiritual energy.
Only by supplying the Enlightenment Tea Tree and the Source Blood Divine Tree with unlimited resources can the two trees undergo transformation.
It should be noted that the world has continued for so many years, and since the Three Paths ruled the world, there has been no precedent for the innate divine tree to become spiritual.
As for the Enlightenment Tea Tree or the Source Blood Fruit Tree before the Three Paths ruled the world, they were merely the sustenance of the innate deities.
These treasures disappeared after the three emperors ruled the world.
Moreover, compared to its effects on humans and demons, it has a greater effect on some races such as ghosts, spirits, gods, and saints.
Yin Shen can also be seen as a kind of deity.
Each of the five races has its own shortcomings. The shortcomings of the human race and the demon race are both qi and spirit. The human race is born with a physical form, but their qi and spirit are relatively weak.
Therefore, the cultivation of humans involves refining essence into qi, and refining qi into spirit.
The weakness of both the Ghost Clan and the God Clan lies in their essence and spirit. Therefore, the Ghost Clan needs other living beings to transform them before they can take physical form from their energy.
Therefore, it is best for the Ghost Clan to cultivate to the point of forming a physical body. If they cannot do so, they should simply rest their energy and then enhance their divine power.
The Holy Race is relatively perfect, but even gods have their flaws, because the Holy Race was originally created by the innate divine beings as substitutes to share their destiny.
How can someone who doesn't even have a self possess a powerful god?
Enlightenment Tea is a sacred tonic, while Source Blood Fruit is a sacred tonic for replenishing essence.
If Zhu Guang hadn't been accompanying her, Yin Suo would never have received such high-level hospitality.
The reason why Zhao Xuan called Zhu Guang a great sage is because Zhu Guang's bloodline and contributions to the human race deserve respect.
Zhu Guang's real name should be Zhu Rong Shi Guang, who is a direct descendant of the innate sacred fire god Zhu Rong, and his lineage will not exceed nine generations.
According to legend, Zhu Rong, who competed with Emperor Yan for the throne of the Human Emperor, was Zhu Guang.
One of the ninety-nine powerful beings who followed the Yellow Springs Emperor into the Netherworld at the end of ancient times.
As mentioned earlier, these people enter the Netherworld not to establish an underworld, but to compete with the Underworld for the power of reincarnation.
It was only after their failure that they established the first underworld for humankind in the netherworld.
Zhu Guang, as a being with innate divine bloodline, explored another path outside the underworld, namely the form of a Yin deity in the underworld.
Also known as the City God system, Zhu Guang was the first City God of the human race.
Of course, this Zhu Rong bloodline was not born from the yin-yang intercourse between Zhu Rong and a human, but rather from a drop of Zhu Rong's essence blood transformed into a primordial being, which was born from the union of this primordial being and the primordial human race.
Afterwards, the innate human race multiplied into the acquired human race, and this bloodline was passed down.
That's why Zhao Xuan changed his mind and hosted the two of them after hearing Zhu Guang's name.
Because Zhu Guang's City God system requires communication and cooperation with the underworld, Zhu Guang has a good relationship with the underworld.
Then he was asked to act as a persuader to help Yin Suo convince Zhao Xuan and Zhao Mingcheng.
Zhao Mingcheng was cunning; he could have made the decision himself, but Zhu Guang's involvement complicated things, so he passed the buck to Zhao Xuan.
The Enlightenment Tea and the Source Blood Fruit might just be a way for Zhao Xuan to intimidate people.
When the two woke up, they thanked Zhao Xuan and then Yin Suo explained their purpose.
Meanwhile, Zhu Guang, seemingly lost in the turmoil, leisurely savored his Enlightenment Tea.
Although Zhu Guang, being a human, followed the path of the Yin God, he truly deserved the title of a great sage of the human race.
He helped the underworld because he owed them a favor by allowing them to establish the City God system.
So it's just acting as a middleman, allowing the two parties to talk together.
Whether the deal goes through or not is none of his business.
Zhao Xuan, of course, also gave Zhu Guang face. After several discussions, the Underworld promised two thousand divine positions, and Zhao Xuan promised that before the Great Zhao Dynasty ascended, the human population would be reduced to less than ten billion.
Yin Suo then left satisfied, while Zhu Guang was kept by Zhao Xuan for thirty years to discuss the Dao.
The so-called discussion of Tao was actually a way to get the Enlightenment Tea Source Blood Fruit as payment, ask Zhu Guang about the Underworld and the City God system, and incidentally teach the Heavenly Stems team that had returned from finding a good place how to handle various situations.
As the creator of the City God system, Zhu Guang understood Zhao Xuan's meaning as soon as Zhao Xuan asked the underworld for a divine position.
It's simply a matter of wanting to build their own underworld, since they'll need to communicate with it later anyway, and it's all free of charge.
Now that we have Enlightenment Tea and Blood Fruit, why not take advantage of it?
