My Mythical Path to Immortality in Another World

Actually, it was because the underground passage was in a hurry; otherwise, Zhao Xuan, with his two hundred billion human race members, would never have intended to let them fend for themselves.

Instead, they planned to create a world in the Dharma-ending Age and let them live in it.

After all, Zhao Xuan's mythical foundation is intended to be configured with four basic force systems in the future, and only these most basic forces or order are unavoidable in every world.

If the world changes, Zhao Xuan can connect with the power of the new world in the shortest possible time.

The power of Wuji is the source of change, capable of adjusting the subtle differences in power between the two worlds.

However, Zhao Xuan did not actually understand the four fundamental forces very well, so he needed the people of the Dharma-ending Age to help him study them.

Zhao Xuan, on the other hand, provided them with protection.

In other words, the humans on Earth will gradually be transferred to the grotto heaven by Zhao Xuan, and there will be fewer and fewer mortals on Earth.

Zhao Xuan's inquiry about reincarnation was also partly due to the fact that he was setting up a reincarnation system within the cave.

After all, the human race in the Dharma-ending Age will not have a long lifespan. Without the ability to create their own souls and without reincarnation, these two hundred billion humans will become disposable resources.

Outside, as the saying goes, it's better to rely on yourself than on others. Zhao Xuan also plans to have the Heavenly Stems Squad establish the Underworld to correspond with the Great Zhao Heavenly Court.

The ten members of the Heavenly Stems Squad are the Ten Yama Kings selected by Zhao Xuan.

Thirty years later, Zhu Guang was about to leave. Zhao Xuan then traded with Zhu Guang for 10,000 Source Blood Fruits and 100 taels of Enlightenment Tea every 1000 years for 10,000 Great City God positions, 1,000 County City God positions, 10,000 County City God positions, and their corresponding auxiliary god positions.

Like a true name, a divine position can unite people in faith.

Faith and fortune are very similar, or rather, faith is the most primal form of fortune.

Ordinary people and low-level cultivators cannot suppress their own Three Treasures. After the Three Treasures are lost, they are collected by high-level cultivators and become their faith.

The essence of the Three Treasures is the three great substances: creation, emptiness, and immortality.

The essence of fortune is also the three elements, but fortune is labeled by the three paths of heaven, earth and man.

In reality, allowing these three treasures to be lost, controlled by the three paths, and then distributed to individuals is a huge waste. It would be better for high-level cultivators to collect them themselves.

However, in the early stages of the Human Emperor's reign, it was necessary to consolidate the absolute faith in him, therefore the Underworld and Heavenly Court needed to reclaim their divine positions.

This gradually became a tradition that during the reign of the Human Emperor on Earth, neither the Underworld nor the Heavenly Court were allowed to provide assistance.

There was also a calculation by Heaven in this; the reason why the Underworld and Heavenly Court reclaimed their divine positions was to help the Human Emperor establish absolute faith.

Once the human emperor establishes a faith, divine positions will naturally descend to assist him in governing the world.

But the worst thing is to have a legitimate reason and a justifiable cause.

The Way of Heaven governs the world, but it is restrained by the Way of Earth and the Way of Humanity; it is not something that can be said arbitrarily.

Just like the emperor and the prime minister, the power of the prime minister can check the power of the emperor.

Things that benefit humanity will naturally not be allowed to develop unchecked by Heaven.

Therefore, after the Underworld and Heavenly Court reclaimed their divine positions, Heavenly Dao reacted directly, forbidding the Underworld and Heavenly Court from providing assistance during the reign of the Human Emperor on Earth.

The pretext for helping the Emperor establish absolute faith is perfectly legitimate and justified. Humanity cannot stop it, no matter how hard it tries.

This is why the human population is unlikely to exceed five billion.

Because the human race needs to find a way to enable these people to cultivate, even if it's just to the Spirit Realm.

Because for the past ten thousand years, the human race has ruled on its own, without the guidance of city gods or the underworld, and mortals are replaced every hundred years, these lingering souls in the human world will cause great disasters.

The reason why the Earthly Dao did not intervene was to cooperate with the Heavenly Dao in eliminating the arrangements made by the Primordial Saints on Earth. Those resentful energies could pollute the aura of the Primordial Saints, causing their remaining power on Earth to be quickly depleted.

Moreover, with the Heavenly Dao protecting it, this cause and effect will only be attributed to the Heavenly Dao.

However, the human race is not entirely without options. The soul of the first cultivator must be guided in time; this is an ironclad law of reincarnation.

Therefore, when all humans are cultivators, even if they are only at the first level of the Spirit Realm, they are still cultivators.

The underworld must receive them and send them to the netherworld to await reincarnation.

Secondly, the Buddhist, Taoist, Yin-Yang, Miscellaneous, Burial, and even Hundred Schools of Thought among the human race all have ways to resolve the resentment of the soul, allowing the soul to rest in peace, or directly sending it into reincarnation.

The first point is that with a human population of 200 billion, it's impossible for everyone to cultivate.

However, Zhao Xuan instructed Zhao Mingcheng to vigorously support the cultivation of the Hundred Schools and the Holy Path, so that even when the human race multiplied to two hundred billion, they remained very healthy.

Of course, it was all thanks to the Seven Stars Divine Intervention Array operating at full power for thousands of years and the Three Hundred Cave Heavens that the Hundred Schools had sufficient resources and motivation.

However, without Zhao Xuan, the Seven Stars Severing Fortune Formation would not operate at full power, and the Three Hundred Cave Heavens would not have moved to the human race area on their own.

Ultimately, it was Zhao Xuan's appearance that gave the Great Zhao Dynasty its resources.

This concerns Earth; after the establishment of the Heavenly Court, the Yin God system became even more important.

After the establishment of the Heavenly Court, the frequency of battles will increase significantly, leaving the lower levels of the Heavenly Court with no time for self-cultivation and forcing them to rely on luck to cultivate.

Cultivators who advance in this way have unstable foundations and play only a supporting role in wars.

Therefore, if the situation changes, it will result in a large number of casualties.

The reason why the Zhao family's ancestral temple descended to Earth was because they were afraid.

In the Heavenly Court, life is precarious; on Earth, one can become emperor or ancestor. Once a legitimate reason is found, one will naturally descend.

The souls of cultivators who died in battle in the Heavenly Court will become the best resources for the cultivation of the demon race, just like the demon hunters of the human race.

Therefore, the Heavenly Court must promptly guide these souls to prevent them from being harmed by the demon race.

According to the rules of reincarnation, the soul must cleanse its karma in order to be reincarnated. Therefore, even if the Heavenly Court collects the souls of cultivators who died in battle, the Yin Gods must send them to the Netherworld.

Therefore, the Heavenly Court also has many positions for the gods of the underworld.

The divine positions that Zhao Xuan traded were preparations for the future of the Heavenly Court.

The positions of the gods in the underworld are different from those of the City God.

The City God's position can only receive the souls of mortals and the souls of cultivators of the lower three ranks, while the position of the Underworld God can receive the souls of all cultivators.

However, the position of the Yin God can suppress Yin spirits.

County City Gods can suppress the spirits of the Holy Realm, Prefecture City Gods can suppress the spirits of the Imperial Realm, and Capital City Gods can suppress the spirits of the Emperor Realm.

The divine positions in the underworld can suppress all spirits below the level of innate deities.

There is a difference between self-initiated reception and suppression. Self-initiated reception does not require the City God to take action personally and there is no limit to the number of people who can receive it.

However, a single deity can only suppress a small number of Yin spirits, requiring the City God to personally intervene.

In the battle to defend Jinyang City against the beast tide, both the City God and the Old Man of the Moon intervened in the end.

It was to suppress the vengeful spirits of demonic beasts in the divine realm of the demon race. In the early stages, the vengeful spirits of demonic beasts below the divine realm could be guided into his own underworld by the City God who was stationed in Jinyang City.
