Zombies: Cultivating Immortality at Maoshan, Becoming Stronger by Doing Nothing

“Buzz!!!!”

A mysterious power surged forth instantly.

The next moment, Ling Yanyan's figure disappeared from the spot.

“Buzz!!!!”

A spatial fluctuation occurred in the underworld!

Ling Yanyan's figure appeared in the enormous temple of the Underworld Lord.

"Summon the judge of the Punishment Division to bring Maoshan Xuan Yanzi to see me!"

Ling Yanyan calmly spoke to the void! The next moment, he stepped forward!

“Buzz!!!!”

In an instant, a supreme light emanated from his body.

Enveloped in light, his Dharma form as the Lord of the Palace instantly descended!

At this moment, a terrifying aura enveloped the entire underworld.

As Ling Yanyan slowly sat on the throne of the Lord of the Underworld.

In the center of the palace ahead, space instantly distorted.

Subsequently, a colossal Dharma image, with a ferocious and terrifying appearance and a height of tens of thousands of kilometers, also appeared there. However, although this Dharma image was larger than the Earth, it was as insignificant as dust in front of Ling Yan Yan's Lord Dharma image.

Beside him stood an old Taoist priest who was terrified; he was none other than Xuan Yanzi, who had just died.

"Zhong Kui, Judge of the Punishment Division of the Underworld, pays his respects to His Majesty the Lord of the Underworld!"

Zhong Kui respectfully knelt down before Ling Yan Yan!

Indeed, the judge of the Punishment Department is none other than Zhong Kui!

He was a powerful cultivator from the ancient Tang Dynasty, millions of years ago.

Because of his immense merits during his lifetime, he became a judge in the underworld only after millions of years following his death.

Xuan Yanzi was so frightened by the words of the person beside him that his soul trembled. The other party was actually Zhong Kui, the judge of the Punishment Division!

That's not all; the person kneeling before him was actually the Lord of the Underworld.

Although he didn't know when the Lord of the Palace had appeared as a deity, seeing how respectful and fearful Judge Zhong Kui was, how could he dare to show the slightest disrespect?

"This humble servant, Xuan Yan, pays respects to Your Majesty the Lord of the Palace!"

Ancestor Xuan Yan immediately prostrated himself on the ground, trembling as he kowtowed.

Looking at Xuan Yan, Ling Yan Yan didn't say anything more.

With just a thought, an immense force instantly lifted the two people in front of him up.

"Zhong Kui, what is the punishment for any cultivator who defies fate and alters their destiny in the mortal realm for fifty years!"

Ling Yanyan slowly spoke.

As soon as he said that, Ancestor Xuan Yan's head exploded with a bang!

It's over. Even the Lord of the Manor is personally judging me. I'm doomed.

"Your Majesty, according to the laws of the underworld, anyone who defies fate and alters more than one-tenth of their lifespan will be cast into the eighteenth level of hell and never be reincarnated!"

This person is a mortal celestial master who has altered his lifespan by fifty-one years, thus meeting the required standard!

Zhong Kui spoke respectfully.

Upon hearing his words, even though Ancestor Xuan Yan was prepared, his heart still trembled, and a sense of despair welled up in his mind.

Is there any chance of a turnaround?

However, at this moment, Ling Yanyan slowly spoke.

His words surprised not only Ancestor Xuan Yan, but also Zhong Kui.

He instantly understood: His Majesty the Lord of the Palace was protecting this person!

"Yes! This law was jointly formulated by the four Yama Kings of the Underworld! If Your Excellency wishes to change it, it is merely a matter of a single word!"

Zhong Kui quickly spoke up.

In fact, this law itself is somewhat inhumane. After all, defying fate has always been a very normal thing for cultivators throughout history!

The reason why the Four Kings of Hell have such a rule is mainly because medicines are scarce in the mortal realm.

In particular, the medicinal materials required for elixirs that extend lifespan are extremely precious.

The price-performance ratio is extremely low.

The medicinal herbs that can extend the lifespan of a tenth-level Celestial Master are almost enough to create a Celestial Master! In ancient times, those powerful figures practically plundered all the medicinal herbs in the entire cultivation world.

It is precisely for this reason that the Four Kings of Hell established this rule.

This is also to ensure that the mortal realm and cultivation world can continue to develop in the Dharma-ending Age. After all, if the cultivation world is gone, the connection with the underworld will be almost completely severed.
