Chapter 568: Chapter 366 Donghuang Taiyi Wants to Slay the Three Corpses_2

He had just become Emperor Fengdu and an Underworld Saint, preaching Ghost Dao within the Netherworld, and had many matters that required his attention.

Had it not been for Lady Ping Xin’s invitation, he would already be in Fengdu Ghost City handling various affairs.

Leaving the place of Six Paths Reincarnation, Emperor Fengdu returned to Fengdu Ghost City.

By this time, Fengdu Ghost City had already become a holy land for Ghost Dao, and Emperor Fengdu was referred to as the Ghost Ancestor.

Countless cultivators of Ghost Dao gathered here, waiting for guidance from Emperor Fengdu.

The pursuit of strength is the innate instinct of living beings, even after death transforms them into souls, it remains so.

In Fengdu Ghost City, one could see beings from the Witch Clan and practitioners of Ghost Dao, but rarely souls.

It goes without saying about the Ghost Dao beings.

Beings from the Witch Clan gathered here largely because Emperor Fengdu’s identity had once been an Ancestor Witch.

Among them were notable Great Witches such as Xing Tian, Wu Xian, Kua Fu, Da Yi, etc., the essence of the preserved Witch Clan.

Upon returning to Fengdu Ghost City, Emperor Fengdu directly selected some beings from the Witch Clan and Ghost Dao cultivators to manage Fengdu Ghost City.

In terms of management, Emperor Fengdu had substantial experience.

So long as his power was sufficient to suppress everything, he could let go of direct control.

In the governance of Fengdu Ghost City, the beings from the Witch Clan were essentially acting as law enforcers.

Ghost Dao, just recently established and flourishing in the Netherworld, could not compare in cultivation level to the beings of the Witch Clan who dominated the Primordial for countless eons.

It is known, that except for the absence of Ancestor Witches, all other beings from the Witch Clan had been preserved.

Under these circumstances, no being dared to violate the rules set by Emperor Fengdu.

Every so often, Emperor Fengdu would provide guidance to these beings in their cultivation, whether in Ghost Dao or the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique; he was proficient in both.

With his insights, guiding these beings was more than adequate.

Most of his time, however, was spent continuously comprehending his own authority and various laws of the Netherworld.

The authority of Emperor Fengdu extended not merely to Fengdu Ghost City, but to every aspect of the Netherworld.

Ten Halls Yama, Wangxiang Platform, Ghost Gate, Yellow Spring Road, Naihe Bridge, and even the Eighteen Layers of Hell all required the efforts of Emperor Fengdu.

The only thing that really did not need his intervention was the very core of the Netherworld, the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Moreover, it could even be said that Fengdu Ghost City was the only forceful institution within the Netherworld.

Lady Ping Xin, when in charge of the Netherworld, had not noticed this.

However, Emperor Fengdu, with the awareness of the Demon Emperor, understood that such a great world naturally could not lack an organized combat department.

There was much to do, but there was no urgency.

And with the foundation of the Witch Clan, Emperor Fengdu did not find this task to be very challenging.

Western Primordial.

After Jieyin Saint and Zhunti Saint returned from the Netherworld to Mount Sumeru, the doctrine of Buddhism began to include the concept of reincarnation.

Live a life of virtue in this life, to preserve oneself in the next life, enhance one’s qualities, and live another life.

To higher-level beings within Buddhism, this doctrine was not significant.

However, for the vast majority at the base of the Buddhist hierarchy, it held great appeal.

Preserve oneself and live another life.

For those beings unable to achieve immortality, this was akin to gaining an additional opportunity to chase after eternal life.

This was also more beneficial for Buddhism to guide them willingly to repair the spiritual veins of the Western Primordial.

Under the leadership of Jieyin Saint and Zhunti Saint, this top-down acceptance of the reincarnation doctrine was quite smooth.

The ‘Six Paths Reincarnation Plate’ at Mount Sumeru radiated the Power of Six Paths Reincarnation, permeating throughout the regions of Buddhism.

At this time, pursuing merit and reincarnation had become the right choice within Buddhism.

Even so, for those beings who cannot achieve eternal life, the advancement of their cultivation realm must come after the pursuit of virtue.

In this matter, the two saints of Buddhism have seen it and know that in some sense, it is an action of putting the cart before the horse.

But now, they truly lack virtue and thus have said nothing.

Therefore, compared to other major teachings, the upper-middle tier beings of Buddhism are not much different from others; they all pursue the Dao.

However, the actions of the lower-tier beings in Buddhism greatly differ from those of other major teachings.

Of course, among the lower-tier beings of Buddhism, there are also those who don’t fit in, not having signed the Heavenly Dao Contract with the Six Paths Reincarnation Plate, although they are very few.

In the Six Paths of Reincarnation area of the Netherworld, the souls of Buddhist disciples have also entered this place, guided directly by the ghosts of Emperor Fengdu.

Upon arriving here, one must first deduct thirty percent of their own accumulated virtue, and then endure the wear and tear from the Power of Reincarnation.

If the remaining virtue is sufficient, one retains the memories of their past life and is reincarnated back into Buddhism.

If the virtue is insufficient, they enter the Six Paths of Reincarnation according to the situation, reincarnating through birth, essentially exchanging virtue for their spirituality.

Over a brief period, Saints Jieyin and Zhunti have sensed a feedback and, indeed, the result is just as the Pangu God has pointed out.

However, the loss of the thirty percent of virtue grieves them deeply.

Primordial Starry Sky, Sun Star.

Donghuang Taiyi is sitting under the Fusang Tree, meditating with closed eyes.

The Ten Golden Crows are positioned on the branches of the Fusang Tree, taking turns circling around the grand sun according to the original plan.

At this moment, with a thought from Donghuang Taiyi, the Donghuang Bell appears above him.

Without the sound of the bell ringing, one can see Space Laws emanating from the bell’s body, and both Donghuang Taiyi and the Donghuang Bell disappear simultaneously.

When Donghuang Taiyi reappears, he is on another end of the Sun Star.

Here lie palaces, built initially by the two brothers, although they seldom visited afterwards.

Originally, Donghuang Taiyi, like other Quasi-Saint beings, had witnessed the scene of Emperor Fengdu becoming a Saint.

Similarly, he did not understand what exactly happened, and his heart was equally dissatisfied.

Apart from his own elder brother, Donghuang Taiyi does not believe that he is inferior to any being, even when facing other Saints.

The Three Pure Ones, Western Two Saints, Nuwa Saint, these beings possess the Hongmeng Purple Qi, regarded as Heavenly Determined Saints by his brother.

He is not entangled by it.

Demon Ancestor Luo Hou, recognized by his brother as a being contending with Daoist Ancestor, has a deep origin.

He does not compete with him.

Lady Ping Xin, the Master of Reincarnation, transforms herself into the cycle of rebirth, possessing boundless virtue, and washes her Primordial Spirit to become a Saint.

His heart does not harbor great love, unable to compare with her.

Yet this Emperor Fengdu, revealing himself not long ago in Primordial, transformed from an Ancestor Witch who never cultivated the Primordial Spirit to a Saint.

Unable to understand the reasons behind it, his heart remains discontent.

However, the sanctification of Emperor Fengdu also triggered something in Donghuang Taiyi.

He practices the Immortal Dao, already achieving Quasi-Saint, has long since cut two of the Three Corpses, and is looking for the opportunity to sever the third Corpse.

Now with the ascension of Emperor Fengdu, feeling his heart stir, he senses that the opportunity is approaching.

Without any hesitation, he stops paying attention to this Underworld Saint and immediately meditates under the Fusang Tree, searching for the sensation in his heart.

After another long period of cultivation, he finally finds the chance within his heart, feeling the moment is near to cut the Three Corpses, within close reach.

However, he also considers the presence of the Ten Golden Crows, thereby activating the Donghuang Bell to traverse through space, arriving at another end of the Sun Star.

In Heavenly Realm, located in the Palace of the Polestar, Di Jun senses something, his gaze shifting towards the Sun Star, spotting Donghuang Taiyi in the act of severing the corpses.

His lips slightly curl up, softly uttering, “The day of Taiyi’s enlightenment is not far off.”

Then, he steps out and directly arrives beside Donghuang Taiyi at the Sun Star, yet without revealing his form, to avoid causing any disturbance.
