Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

……

"After this place withered, the Bridge of Helplessness, which purified the resentment, was destroyed, and the Ten Courts of Yama, which suppressed all evil spirits, also collapsed. The resentful souls who could not be reincarnated without being cleansed fell into the sea of ​​suffering, enduring endless torment. Only I, the old turtle guarding the sea, still have a wisp of my soul left, waiting bitterly..."

The old tortoise looked at the endless creatures in the Sea of ​​Bitterness, sighed deeply, and then continued, "I thought everything was over... until later, the Black Emperor arrived with her."

He looked at the female spirit and sighed, "The Black Emperor said that she was a 'perfect being' created by the Goddess of Mending the Heavens, named Qingyan. She possessed extremely powerful talents and might be the hope that the Goddess of Mending the Heavens intended to use to fight against the Source. Therefore, the Black Emperor specifically sought her out to go with him and took away the 'Bridge of Life and Death,' a supreme treasure from the cycle of reincarnation, in order to explore the truth behind the disappearance of the former master and the Goddess of Mending the Heavens..."

"The Black Emperor also told me that if the old master still hasn't returned within ten thousand years, then one day, Qingyan will arrive with a new master, who will reorganize the Underworld and settle all scores..."

It murmured, "That was a long, long time ago. Later, the old master never came, and time flowed by. I thought this place had been completely forgotten."

"I didn't expect Qingyan to bring you here after all... but she has changed so much."

His old eyes were filled with emotion!

Li Lan was equally shocked.

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind; many things were now connected at that moment—

Once upon a time, the masters of the Black Emperor and the White Emperor established the Underworld, intending to deliver all the vengeful souls of the past.

However, due to the chaos at the source, the goddess ancestors of the Sky-Mending Clan and the ancient ancestors who created the world all met with accidents, and that person disappeared. After he left, the Underworld was also broken and desolate.

The Black Emperor and Light Smoke had been here once before, taking away a priceless treasure, and then heading to the depths of the source to find that person.

But later, the Black Emperor also went mad and became a strange creature. Even Qingyan, the perfect being created by the Goddess of Mending the Sky, inexplicably turned into a strange creature!

Later, the big black dog went to the Wanyuan Mountain Range, scaring the True Dragon Clan away... But by then, the big black dog should have regained some of its senses, because it did not eat the Dragon Treasure.

Could it be that it intentionally left Long Bao and Qing Yan there to wait for Li Lan?!

But what exactly happened at the source?

Could I really be the "new master" chosen by the big black dog and other beings?

Thinking about it now, the appearance of the cat may not even be a coincidence.

Did she intend for Li Lan to guide the departed souls through the method she gave him, or was she using it as an excuse to bring Li Lan to the underworld?

He vaguely sensed that the cat and the big black dog were setting up a scheme...

And Li Lan was the one they chose?

"A new ruler emerges, all souls fall silent, and everything is settled!"

The old tortoise stared at Li Lan with burning eyes and said, "New master, please take control of the Reincarnation Seal!"

Its stone body suddenly cracked, and a precious seal appeared inside!

It was a large brass seal, mottled and worn, yet containing earth-shattering power. As soon as this seal appeared, the countless vengeful souls in the endless sea of ​​suffering suddenly stopped wailing and turned to look at it.

This large brass seal is the authority over the entire underworld; whoever holds it can gain control of the underworld.

"This is the great seal made by the former master. Every living being who has passed through the underworld, their resentment and hatred, joy and anger, love and happiness, reluctance and regret... will eventually be engraved on this great seal. All spirits move from death to life, which is the power of reincarnation!"

The old tortoise's remnant soul stared at the great seal and murmured, "A life will add a bit of authority to the great seal. In the end, this great seal is all living beings, is the mortal world... The old master said that the grievances of all living beings throughout the ages can be used as a spear to kill all the strange and completely quell the source of the disaster. The will of all spirits throughout the vast ages can be used as a foundation to build an eternal pure land in the human world!"

"Unfortunately, the former master did not live to see his power consolidate before he had to go and quell the rebellion..."
