Chapter 901 The Spring Guardian Appears in the World, Taking Control of the Underworld 2
This time, Hu Xiuwu doesn't need Pure Spiritual Essence, this universal material and universal energy.

His goal this time was very clear: to create a new ruler for the underworld. The characteristic of "controlling the underworld" carried by the Five Ghost Emperors and the Northern Yin Emperor of Fengdu was exactly what Hu Xiuwu needed.

Therefore, this time Hu Xiuwu did not need to reverse it back to its innate state. He left behind some specific structures and special properties, which saved him a lot of trouble.

After the golden bodies of the Five Ghost Emperors and the Northern Yin Emperor of Fengdu were ground to dust, six clusters of pure immortal energy and refined Yin Qi were mixed together.

Like a seasoned pastry chef, Hu Xiuwu fused the six clusters of Ghost Emperor Qi together, plucked a branch from the lotus tree from afar, ground it into powder, mixed it in, and then crossed the two realms from the void to scoop up a bowl of Cold Marrow Water and mix it in as well.

When the water of cold marrow entered that large mass of yin energy, it was immediately assimilated by the yin energy and no longer exhibited the aura of cold marrow.

That won't do. What Hu Xiuwu wants is a manager of the underworld who can control the netherworld and communicate with the power of the cold marrow. A weak connection with the Nine Springs Cold Marrow is unacceptable.

Hu Xiuwu remained silent, but scooped up another ladle of cold marrow water.

The matter is easy to handle; it's simply a matter of adding water if there's too much flour, and adding salt if it's too bland.

By adding several ladles of Cold Marrow Water, Hu Xiuwu essentially injected the essence of Cold Marrow and the power of the Nine Springs directly into an embryo that had not yet taken shape.

If the attributes of one's innate Qi are altered before birth, the resulting ruler of the underworld will become a natural being of the Cold Marrow, and will have an innate connection with the Cold Marrow of the Nine Springs and the Six Paths of Reincarnation connected to it.

Maintaining the Cold Marrow and the Six Paths of Reincarnation is maintaining themselves.

Just as worker bees protect the queen bee, worker ants guard the queen ant, it is out of instinct and the interest of continuing the species.

Positive feedback also ensures that newly appointed underworld administrators can see the Six Paths of Reincarnation as their own, giving them more motivation to protect the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

"In that case, we still need to add a little bit of help."

Seeing that the cold marrow had been injected and the innate Qi embryo was about to take shape, Hu Xiuwu suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

Hu Xiuwu awoke from his meditation in Huaguo Mountain and summoned the Innate Demon Refining Tower. He took out a few drops of crystal-clear crystals from the tower, along with a few drops of blood that were as viscous as mercury and as clear as gemstones.

Those were the tears of the Bodhisattva and the blood of the Buddha.

Hu Xiuwu flicked his finger and sent them all flying toward the underworld.

The tears of the Bodhisattva and the blood of the Buddha traveled across the vast distance between the two realms, falling directly from Huaguo Mountain in Dongsheng Shenzhou into the Yama Palace of the Underworld, and flowing into the innate divine embryo.

The innate divine embryo immediately underwent changes, and the embryo of an innate deity had already taken shape within the Yin Qi.

The little touch that Hu Xiuwu added to the innate divine embryo was to enable it to gain the ability to perceive cause and effect.

The administrators of the underworld possess the ability to perceive cause and effect, which is like adding wings to a tiger, enabling them to better handle the cycle of reincarnation and judge countless souls.

Boom!
In the Hall of Yama, a heartbeat, like thunder and drumbeats, echoed in the empty hall, inexplicably causing palpitations and a sense of pressure like a mountain collapsing.

Boom!
With another thud, even the Yama's Palace couldn't suppress this heartbeat. Throughout the entire city of Fengdu, all the ghosts bowed in submission, daring not to move, while the demons held their weapons, ready for battle.

Boom!
The third heartbeat travels from the Yama's Palace to Fengdu City, across the River of Oblivion, to the eighteen levels of hell, the underworld, and the six realms of reincarnation; it reaches everywhere, and every ghost hears it.

The proclamation was made known to all under heaven.

Meng Po, inside the Meng Po Pavilion, trembled in her hand holding the soup ladle. Amidst the rising steam, she looked up towards the location of Fengdu City.
The newly appointed judge, seeing Meng Po standing there motionless, tried to wake her up, not understanding why:

"Grandma! Grandma! Are you alright?"

Hearing the call, Meng Po regained her senses, waved her hand to indicate she was alright, calmly picked up the ladle again, and served the departed souls the clear soup that would help them forget their past lives, all the while chuckling to herself:
"Hehehe, as expected of Da Luo, he makes such a big show of things right away. This is good, this is good."

"It's still better than those deformed fruits sent by Heaven."
Three heartbeats, the divine fetus is born, and all strange phenomena disappear.

Only the lotus tree branches, which were the external manifestations of the Cold Marrow Divine Spring, trembled, like peach trees in the mortal world that had just shed their fruit. The stars formed by the lotus lanterns in the sky above the underworld twinkled like ocean waves, as if celebrating the birth of the Buddha who saves people from suffering in three lifetimes.

The divine fetus was already an adult when it was born, and it had extraordinary phenomena that were completely different from normal people. It had six arms and three heads. Its arms were in the Ksitigarbha Mudra, Vajra Mudra, and Rahula Mudra. Its three heads were one angry, one sorrowful, and one supremely detached from emotions, without sorrow or anger.

Although it takes the form of a Bodhisattva or Buddha, the divine embryo is dressed in a dark robe of the Underworld Emperor, making it both an emperor and a Bodhisattva.

It is precisely the origin of Tathagata and Ksitigarbha.

The divine embryo, facing forward with both arms, one finger pointing to the sky and the other to the earth, suddenly spoke, its voice shaking the underworld:

"I am the Buddha who saves people from suffering in three lifetimes! I was born from cold marrow and reincarnated from six emperors. I received the decree of the Underworld Lord to govern the Underworld and manage the Six Paths."

Its sound travels through the three realms and six paths, reaching the heavens above and descending into hell below.

All sentient beings in the Three Realms received a message.

The Buddha who saves beings from suffering in three lifetimes, saves beings in this life, and controls the six realms!
"Homage to the Buddha who saves people from suffering and delivers them from worldly afflictions!"

People of the mortal world bowed and prayed.

"The Buddha who saves people from suffering and delivers them from worldly afflictions!"

The gods of Heaven gritted their teeth in fear.

"The Buddha who saves people from suffering and delivers them from worldly afflictions?"

The Bodhisattva of the South Sea was puzzled.

After announcing his birth to all sentient beings in the Three Realms, the Buddha of Three Lives, who saves from suffering, faced the location of Flower and Fruit Mountain in the Eastern Continent, put his hands together in prayer, and performed three kneelings and nine prostrations to express his gratitude and respect to Hu Xiuwu.

After the grand ceremony, the Buddha of Three Lives, who saves people from suffering, did not delay any longer. He invoked the memories of the six emperors in his mind and awkwardly used the escape technique, transforming his body into black clouds.

The rolling black clouds drifted away and settled beneath the Cold Marrow Lotus Tree.

The lotus tree sensed the arrival of the Buddha who saves people from suffering in three lifetimes, and its roots formed the shape of a Dharma treasure.

The Buddha of Three Lives, who saves people from suffering, sat down on his throne and began to organize the memories of the six emperors in his mind, train his supernatural powers, try to understand cause and effect, and with the help of the cold marrow, sort out the chaotic six realms of reincarnation and the underworld.

······
"Absolutely breathtaking, far beyond our reach!"

Erlang Shen Yang Jian, who had observed the entire process, only dared to utter a sound of amazement after the Buddha of Three Lives, who had saved the world from suffering, appeared and departed.

"Now the True Lord should be able to rest assured,"

Su He rose from the throne of Yama, the King of Hell, which was carved with eighteen levels of hell to suppress all ghosts, and walked down the steps of the Yama Palace.

He was going to find the Buddha who saves people from suffering and delivers them from worldly afflictions.

The Buddha of the Three Lives of Salvation and Liberation has just been born. As fellow relatives in the netherworld, Luo Feng Yin Guan, what responsibility does Su He have to teach the Buddha of the Three Lives of Salvation and Liberation how to fulfill his duties?

Once the Buddha who saves people from suffering in three lifetimes has matured, Suhe can finally retire!
