Chapter 139 Entering the Netherworld

Humans have a lifespan, and ghosts also have a lifespan. The lifespan of humans is called yang lifespan, and the lifespan of ghosts is called yin lifespan. Except for those ghost immortals transformed by practitioners, other ghosts also need to spend a lot of time practicing if they want to become ghost immortals, and there are various extremely harsh conditions.

Yin Shou!

Incense!

These are the two prerequisites for ordinary people to become ghost immortals.

Only by allowing the soul to leave the body and enter the netherworld before the life span is over, and converting the life span into the netherworld, can one embark on the path of cultivation to become a ghost immortal.

People who died suddenly or whose life span has ended cannot become ghost immortals.

At most, become a ghost!

Although Han Yi had never practiced the Ghost Immortal System, he had heard of this and could not help but ask, "How many years does Cheng Tang have left to live?"

"Five years!"

The Great Emperor Shangqing replied.

In Han Yi's memory, Cheng Tang in his previous life seemed to have been the King of Shang for eleven years before he expired and returned to the underworld.

The ratio of conversion between Yang lifespan and Yin lifespan is one to one, that is to say, even if he enters the underworld now, Cheng Tang will only have five years to practice.

"It doesn't matter!"

Emperor Shangqing seemed to have seen through Han Yi's thoughts, and immediately waved his hand and said: "Now Cheng Tang is the human king, carrying the shackles of both heaven and man. It is extremely difficult to increase his lifespan! But once he gives up the position of human king, it will be easy to add some lifespan to him!"

Then, he said, "The place of reincarnation is where that person's body evolved. If I go there, I will definitely alarm that Lady Pingxin!"

"In the netherworld, the Ten Yama Kings are the incarnations of Taiyi Zhenren of the Chan Sect, and the Emperor of Fengdu is related to the Human Sect. If I make too much noise in the underworld, Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun might notice my plan to increase and consolidate the fortune of the Jie Sect by plotting the wealth of the three realms!"

"Therefore, now we need you, the real Han Yi, to take action!"

In the underworld, the forces are intertwined and complex. Not only the orthodox sect and the human sect, but all forces are involved, it’s just a matter of how much they control!

The powers of the Six Paths Lord and the Five Ghost Emperors need to be recognized impartially. The major forces cannot interfere, but it is not difficult to plan for some ghost soldiers and generals.

These people are the spies arranged by the major forces in the underworld.

Once there is any disturbance in the underworld, they will report it to the forces behind them.

"I?"

Han Yi was stunned when he heard this, and then said: "Teacher, I am also a disciple of Jiejiao. If I enter the underworld, I am afraid I will be noticed!"

Emperor Shangqing smiled meaningfully and said, "Who told you to go there in this appearance?"

"Like this?"

Han Yi was still a little confused.

"Didn't you cultivate into Fuxi's true body?" Emperor Shangqing said with a smile, "You can use the appearance of Fuxi's true body to lead Cheng Tang into the underworld! I have already concealed the secret for you. Even if those spies in the underworld notice you, they will only regard you as a conspiracy of the Three Emperors of Huoyun Cave!"

Since Master Tongtian wants to tie the Three Emperors of Huoyun Cave to his warship, how could it be detrimental to this opportunity and Han Yi's true body of Fuxi?

"I see!"

Han Yi looked as if he had suddenly realized something.

……

Late the next night.

Han Yi entered the palace and met Cheng Tang and his son Tai Ding. He slowly said, "Your Majesty, are you ready to die?"

"I am ready!"

Hearing this, Cheng Tang smiled bitterly and said, "But, Imperial Master, your words are a little too scary! You've made entering the netherworld mean going to die!"

Since receiving the message from the Three Emperors in his dream, he gradually handed over the political affairs of the Shang Dynasty to his son Tai Ding, and also secretly explained the matter to Yi Yin and other close ministers of the Shang Dynasty.

Everyone in the world wanted to live forever, and Cheng Tang was no exception.

Hearing that there was a chance to become an immortal, even if it was a ghost immortal with the most flaws, he couldn't help but reveal a hint of yearning.

Han Yi laughed when he heard this and said, "When a person dies, he becomes a ghost. When a ghost dies, he becomes a demon. When a demon dies, he becomes a barbarian. When a barbarian dies, he becomes invisible. But the invisible gives birth to the Tao. This goes on and on. This is exactly the principle of heaven and earth that the Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, three gives birth to all things, all things give birth to Taiji, Taiji gives birth to Liangyi, Liangyi gives birth to Sixiang, and Sixiang gives birth to Bagua! Death and rebirth are just appearances! If this is the case, why should the king be so obsessed with my words?"

The way of ghost immortals is to go from death to rebirth. If one cannot see through life and death, it will be difficult to achieve anything on this path even with the help of a saint.

"Been taught a lesson!"

As the king of men, Cheng Tang had a very high level of comprehension. Just by Han Yi's casual mention, he understood the key and immediately expressed his gratitude to Han Yi.

Then, he looked at Tai Ding and said to Han Yi: "My son is kind-hearted, but lacks wisdom. I hope the national teacher can take care of him more in the future!"

"nature!"

Han Yi nodded immediately.

Since Master Tongtian decided to make arrangements in advance, he would naturally not ignore Tai Ding, who is about to become the King of Men.

He pondered for a moment and said, "My king! Please lie down. Let me cast a spell to lead your soul out of your body and help you go to the underworld!"

As the king of mankind, Cheng Tang is blessed by the luck of the human race. If he is unwilling, Han Yi's cultivation alone will not be able to draw out the other party's three souls and seven spirits.

Therefore, cooperation from the other party is required.

"it is good!"

Cheng Tang agreed immediately and lay down on the bed in the palace. Han Yi's hand flashed with fairy light and pulled his soul out of his body. "My king, follow me!"

Han Yi cast a ray of Shangqing immortal light to completely wrap Cheng Tang's soul, and took out a soul-nourishing flower prepared in advance by Shangqing Emperor to nourish his soul.

Soon, Cheng Tang's ghost became solid.

And his body instantly lost its breath.

Seeing this, Tai Ding looked at Han Yi and said, "Don't worry, Imperial Master. Father has already arranged all the funeral arrangements in advance. I will arrange for someone to handle it here."

At the same time, a hint of envy could not help but appear in his eyes.

In the eyes of outsiders, Cheng Tang might be dead, but Tai Ding knew that his father was about to embark on a path leading to longevity and immortality.

Moreover, with the guidance of the national teacher, this road will surely be extremely smooth.

Therefore, he was not sad at all!
"Then I'll trouble you, Your Highness!"

Han Yi smiled and nodded to Tai Ding, then opened a portal to the underworld from the void.

This is the mystery of the way of space!

……

gate of hell.

Bringing Cheng Tang's ghost to the gate of hell, Han Yi did not enter immediately, but let Cheng Tang feel the spiritual energy unique to the underworld first.

“My king, you can try the way of cultivation taught to you by the Three Emperors first!” As he spoke, Han Yi instantly revealed his true form as Fuxi. He used his innate dragon scales to illuminate the Netherworld Avenue, and at the same time used his innate snake tail to stir in the void, drawing in the endless cold and gloomy spiritual energy around him. He said to Cheng Tang, “To become the Six Heavens of Luofeng, the most important thing is to get the approval of Lady Pingxin! Public spirit comes first, and cultivation comes second. But without any cultivation, I’m afraid you won’t be able to gain a foothold in the Netherworld. Before you become a ghost fairy, I will always protect you!”

As the king of men, he had no shortage of luck and fortune. Fuxi directly tailored a set of techniques for Cheng Tang to transform the luck of the king of men into the cultivation of a ghost immortal.

He is not truly dead yet, and some of the luck of a human king still remains in him.

"it is good!"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Tang immediately started to practice the skills that Fuxi had tailored for him.

In addition to Han Yi, Tai'a, the sword of power, also appeared in the void, silently protecting Cheng Tang and intimidating some wandering evil spirits.

Although reincarnation has been established today, the underworld, like the heaven, is just an empty shell, and many powers and functions are not exercised by ghosts and immortals.

Therefore, some creatures are lingering outside the gates of hell, reluctant to leave the human world.

While Han Yi was protecting Cheng Tang, he also began to convert these undead souls. Rays of fairy light descended and forcibly sent them into the underworld.

As for Cheng Tang, the remaining aura of the Human King continued to rise, and an endless amount of spiritual energy, under the guidance of the skills passed down by Fuxi, instantly merged into his body.

Refining Qi!

Refining Qi and becoming God!

Refining the gods and transforming them into emptiness!

Lianxuhedao!

In just half a day, the aura of Cheng Tang's ghost rose to the peak of the realm of Lianxu Hedao, which could be said to be a step to heaven.

Han Yi was not envious.

because……

This method is a shortcut. Cheng Tang now only has a certain realm, but does not have much understanding of the great Dao. He is no match for the cultivators of the same realm.

"My king, let's stop here!" Han Yi looked at Cheng Tang's current state and said immediately: "If you continue, you will encounter a heavenly tribulation that will break through your realm!"

In Cheng Tang's current state, going through the heavenly tribulation would be a sure death. The reason he had the ability to cultivate was only so that he could cross the Wangchuan River and reach the Three Lives Stone!

The Wangchuan River is a mysterious river in the underworld, connecting the Yellow Spring and the origin of life and death, running through all the heavens and worlds, and ordinary creatures cannot set foot on it at all.

If ordinary creatures want to cross the Forgotten River, they can only pass through the Naihe Bridge, drink a bowl of Mengpo soup, and wash away all their past memories.

But Cheng Tang was aiming to become Luofeng Liutian, so naturally he could not give up the memories of his previous life.

He must rely on his own strength to cross the Forgotten River, which symbolizes life and death.

"Let's go!"

Cheng Tang spoke slowly.

When Fuxi had entered his dream before, he had already told him about the various taboos in the underworld, and he also knew the requirements to become Luofeng Liutian.

First of all, be impartial!
As a candidate for the Emperor of Beiyin Fengdu, Luo Fengliutian must be at least 60% impartial in order to have a chance to gain the favor of the Queen Pingxin.

Secondly, it is a tenacious heart and the ability to transcend the constraints of life and death.

As the master of the Sword of Power, Cheng Tang already possesses the former.

And the latter...

The Forgotten River is a test of life and death.

Only by having a certain level of cultivation that can withstand the erosion of the Forgetful River and having a heart that is ready to die and be reborn can one transcend the shackles of the cycle of life and death.

"You will be a hero in life, and you will be a hero in death!"

Han Yi chuckled, then took Cheng Tang across the gates of hell and walked towards the depths of the underworld.
