One person above Qing Huang Ting

Chapter 976 Divine Soul Reincarnation, Afterglow of Ten Thousand Immortals

Straightforward and to the point.

No more veiled meanings or beating around the bush.

Hu Xiuwu directly stated his attitude towards the mission to humanity.

As he said,
The die is cast, and there is no room for negotiation in the mortal realm.

The Northern Yin Emperor Fengdu, along with his numerous evil spirits and Yin gods from Luo Fengtian, has taken on the toughest challenge and the most arduous battle.

The remaining odds and ends must be borne by ordinary people themselves.

Zhao Fangxu felt a bitter taste in his mouth, unsure whether it was from the aroma of tea in the courtyard or from his own anxieties and fears, which flowed from his heart and were tasted by his tongue.

"If it were an enemy of the level of the Serpent God, we mortals would probably be powerless."

Hu Xiuwu's battle against the cult of science at the Palace of Versailles is still vivid in my mind.

This battle destroyed a century-old palace, and the world-famous Eiffel Tower disappeared from the world.

The subsequent naval battle further impacted global transportation, forcing changes to several Asia-Europe shipping routes.

The world map has been updated several times due to Hu Xiwu's actions, forcing many geography students to relearn the new maps and related knowledge.

If we were to fight against such an enemy, humanity would probably have to resort to nuclear weapons, which would harm both the enemy and ourselves.

Even if you win, you'll only be protecting a pile of ruins.

Hu Xiuwu got up and walked to the edge of Taiye Pond.

Zhao Fangxu immediately stood up, supporting himself on the table, and followed behind the Emperor.

The Emperor pointed to the surface of the pool, and Zhao Fangxu squinted, looking in the direction he was pointing.

Beneath the misty water, in the Nine Nether Spring, countless unknown pearls rise and fall, their inner parts seemingly binding some kind of human figure.

Upon closer inspection, the shadows within these jewels are actually quite different. Some retain a human shape, while others are in the shape of a long dragon, a bird with outstretched wings, a beast with four legs, or even strange shapes with three heads and six arms, or a thousand hands and a hundred feet.

The entire Taiye Pond looks like a giant pot of crystal shrimp being cooked.

Zhao Fangxu, with his mortal eyes, couldn't see through the 'truth' of this large cauldron, and could only ask the Emperor, "Your Majesty, what is this...?"

The Emperor said calmly, "This is the 'fertilizer' I prepared to prevent the seedlings from growing too fast!"

"Inside are the spirits of the celestial beings, the gods of mountains and rivers, and the city god of Dayi from the world of Black Myth."

Zhao Fangxu's scalp immediately tingled: "This, this must be more than ten thousand!"

Even Zhao Fangxu was seeing over ten thousand spirits displayed before him for the first time.

Zhao Fangxu had already thoroughly studied the setting of the Black Myth world. He even knew about the love-hate entanglement between Zi Zhu'er, who had just brought him here, and Marshal Tianpeng.

He was certainly familiar with the term "spirit and essence".

That is the primordial spirit-like spiritual body that emerges from the corpses of demons and monsters after their death in the world of Black Myth. The chosen one can use the essence of the spirit to perform the special moves that the spirit master was good at in life.

The essence of all the celestial beings in Heaven resides here.
That would prove that the Emperor, along with Erlang Shen and Nezha, slaughtered the entire Heavenly Court.

The present-day Taiye Pond is the final witness to that annihilation battle where not a single person was spared.

Just thinking about it sent chills down Zhao Fangxu's spine.

The world depicted in Black Myth is indeed cruel. In reality, where we can only deal with Gundams, the Yellow-Eyebrowed Monster has already built a Pagoda.

Not a single primordial spirit or physical body of the celestial beings was wasted.

Zhao Fangxu thought even deeper. Before the strength of the superhumans had even reached its limit, there was already a beast like Zhao Guizhen who harmed seven children.

Now that the supernatural beings have become more powerful, their unorthodox magic has become even more bizarre, unpredictable, cruel, and bloody. "How can we ensure the survival of ordinary people?"

Ignoring Zhao Fangxu, whose hair stood on end beside him, the Emperor said, "I have already dealt with these spirits, washing them in the Taiye Pool with the water of the Nine Nether Spring for seven days and seven nights."

"The essence is pure and flawless, leaving only the purest power."

"I will release these spirits into the mortal world, so that the immortals and gods may be reincarnated and the mortal world may return to the age of mythology."

The Emperor waved his hand, and waves rose in response.

A thousand waves surged in the Taiye Pool, and within the white spray, countless spirits hung suspended in the waves.

The waters of the Nine Nether Springs transformed into waves, soaring into the sky at the Emperor's command, rising three thousand feet high, carrying three thousand spirits, and flying into the vast yellow sky.

"Hum~"

The sound of a dragon's roar came from the east, followed by a thousand-foot jade dragon, its milky white scales retaining the seven-colored glow of the sunset, its horns piercing through layers of clouds.

The jade dragon swept across the sky above the Huaming Palace, leaving behind a stunning dragon shadow. It swept away countless waves, along with their essence, which became the clouds and raindrops controlled by the jade dragon's claws and horns.

Riding the clouds and mist, wielding its essence, the jade dragon broke through the boundary before Zhao Fangxu.

Zhao Fangxu knew that Yulong's name was Yujingzi, and even though he hadn't seen Yujingzi's destination, he could guess it.

Besides the mortal realm, are there any other places to go?

Zhao Fangxu was so shocked he couldn't speak: "This, this, this, I'm afraid... it's not..."

I wanted to dissuade them, but I felt like I had a fishbone stuck in my throat, unable to utter a complete sentence.

Clearly, the fall of these three thousand spirits into the mortal realm will cause a massive upheaval and pose a huge challenge to the management of Na Du Tong.

The extraordinary beings, possessing superhuman power, are inherently arrogant and proud. Now that they have broken through the limits of their strength and gained even greater power, they will likely be even more resistant to the management and constraints of Na Du Tong.

However, what's done is done, and the dust has settled.

The Emperor had made his decision without even consulting him, so there was no point in Zhao Fangxu saying anything more.

Zhao Fangxu sighed: "Your Majesty, is there any distinguishing feature of a spirit possessing a body, or a reincarnation of a deity?"

The Emperor established Luofeng Heaven, invited Shen Jingzhi to enter Luofeng Heaven, made the world's languages ​​understand each other, swept away scientific cults, established the Inner Realm of Heaven, and created the Heavenly Island.

They proceeded step by step without haste or impatience, seeking progress while maintaining stability, and managed the Three Realms, enabling the human world to transition to the mythological era as smoothly as possible.

However, today, the Emperor suddenly decided to force growth by using external means to propel the strength of the extraordinary individuals to a higher level.

That can only mean that the Emperor believes the matter has become so urgent that he needs to use strong medicine and take big steps.

At this point, Zhao Fangxu's persuasion and pleas were meaningless. All he could do now was assist the Emperor's plan and minimize the impact of any potential future turmoil and unrest.

Hu Xiuwu smiled. As expected, Zhao Fangxu knew best how to advance and retreat; his purpose had always been to maintain social stability.

Since there's no turning back, he can only calm down, understand the problem, and solve it.

Hu Xiuwu said with a smile, "I have preserved the power characteristics of the essence, and they will naturally seek out the person who is most compatible with them."

"Although I used the word 'reincarnation,' it's not only babies who attract spirits; those with higher talents and more compatible characteristics are more likely to attract spirits."

"Those who have already made a name for themselves in the world of supernatural beings are more likely to be reincarnations of their spirits."

Zhao Fangxu's heart skipped a beat, and a question suddenly came to mind: "What about the established, older extraordinary individuals?"

Hu Xiuwu laughed loudly: "Even a hundred years old is fine!"
