"Master, what is the difference between the two?" Ju Liusun asked, unable to suppress the doubts in his heart.

"There is a huge difference." Yuanshi Tianzun explained patiently, "After death, all living beings will enter the netherworld. This is the established order of heaven. The life span of all living beings is recorded in the Book of Life and Death managed by the Netherworld Emperor. However, many people die unexpectedly before their life span ends. These people who die unexpectedly are not directly bound by the order of reincarnation."

"People who died suddenly have not yet reached the end of their life span. Even if they go to the netherworld, they cannot be reincarnated immediately. They can only wander around in the netherworld until their life span is exhausted, and then they can be reincarnated again."

"And the Hades Emperor is the leader of these ghosts lingering in the netherworld, the King of Wandering Souls!"

"You two have a chance to win this position."

As soon as Yuanshi Tianzun uttered the last words, Juliusun and Huang Long's eyes lit up instantly.

Although the title of the Wandering Soul King sounds insignificant, as he only governs wandering souls and his divine authority is far less than that of the Heavenly Emperor and the Human Emperor, the status of the three realms of heaven, mortals, and ghosts is equal, and the authority of the Heavenly Dao obtained by the Three Emperors is the same.

This means that once one becomes the Underworld Emperor, one can immediately obtain the Underworld Emperor's treasure bestowed by Heaven, and also possess power comparable to that of a saint.

"Master, please point us in the direction!" Ju Liusun and Huang Long said anxiously.

Yuanshi Tianzun has already said this, if they continue to refuse, it would not be sensible or humble, but rather unreasonable.

"Yeah." Yuanshi Tianzun was quite satisfied with the reactions of the two.

"You should go to the Netherworld now and visit the Goddess Hou Tu of the Witch Clan. As long as she agrees, there will be hope for the position of the Underworld King. The rest depends on your respective opportunities." Yuanshi Tianzun ordered.

"Thank you for your guidance, Master!" Ju Liusun and Huang Long were pleasantly surprised and hurriedly expressed their gratitude.

The Netherworld was opened up by the Goddess Hou Tu, and now the Witch Clan has also migrated to the Netherworld as a whole. If one wants to become the King of the Underworld, one really needs her approval.

"You set off immediately!" Yuanshi Tianzun waved his hand, and a force sent Ji Liusun and Huang Long out of the palace.

After the two came out, they were overjoyed and did not dare to delay for a moment and immediately rushed towards the underworld.

Let's not talk about Ju Liusun and Huang Long for now, let's talk about Guang Chengzi and his group. They arrived at the Wahuang Palace by flying in the light, but found that the gate of the Wahuang Palace was closed after landing. They had no choice but to wait outside the door, and then simply sat down and waited patiently.

As time went by, more and more people were waiting outside the gate of the Wahuang Palace, and it was bustling and lively. In addition to Guangchengzi and his companions, the Jinling Holy Mother, Guiling Holy Mother, Wudang Holy Mother, Zhao Gongming, and Wuyunxian from Jiejiao also came. In addition, there were many great powers in the prehistoric times, including those who had listened to Taoism in Zixiao Palace in the past, such as Zhenyuanzi and Hongyun Taoist.

"Big Brother, there are so many people here today." Guangchengzi said to the Immortal of the South Pole with a wry smile.

"Yes." Nanji Xianweng sighed, "I didn't expect that everyone would set their sights on this position."

"I really don't know who among us can have this opportunity." Jade Ding Zhenren also smiled bitterly.

In order to compete for the position of Emperor of Heaven, several fellow disciples ran to the outside of the Queen Nuwa Palace and stood there as if they were being punished. The scene was somewhat awkward.

"Opportunity is one thing, but when will the door of the Nuwa Palace be opened?" Chi Jingzi smiled helplessly, "I think Senior Brother Ying Zheng already knows we are here, and it seems that he doesn't plan to open the door."

"With so many people blocking the entrance to the Queen Wa Palace, if it were me, I wouldn't want to open the door either." Qingxu muttered in a low voice.

Just as the immortals from the orthodox sect were chatting, several people from the evil sect came over.

"My fellow Taoists, you are polite." The Golden Spirit Holy Mother and others stepped forward and saluted Guangchengzi and others. Guangchengzi and others also hurriedly returned the salute.

"My fellow Taoists, you are all here for the position of Heavenly Emperor, right?" Holy Mother Jin Ling asked with a smile.

"Junior Sister Jin Ling, you too?" Guangchengzi responded tentatively.

The Golden Spirit Holy Mother nodded and said generously: "After we met the master, the master asked us to come to the Wa Palace to pay respect to the eldest brother. As the eldest brother is a god, the position of the emperor of heaven is indeed decided by him."

"Yeah." Behind the Golden Spirit Mother, Zhao Gongming and others nodded in agreement.

"Yes, this time it depends on who can get the favor of Senior Brother Ying Zheng." Guangchengzi said with emotion.

As he spoke, he subconsciously looked towards the gate of the Nuwa Palace, but there was still no sign of it opening.

"Actually, I think that among so many people present, besides us, there is probably only..." Guangchengzi said, his eyes turning to Zhenyuanzi and Hongyun Taoist.

"Indeed." Holy Mother Wu Dang couldn't help but say behind Holy Mother Jin Ling, "Uncle Zhen Yuanzi has a close relationship with Brother Ying Zheng, and he is of a higher generation, and his cultivation is the highest among all present. If he participates in the competition, our chances will be very slim."

The words of the Golden Spirit Holy Mother and others made everyone's faces become a little solemn.

“Gah~Boom!”…

While Guangchengzi and the others were talking, the gate of the Nuwa Palace finally slowly opened. For a moment, everyone's eyes were cast over there.

After the door opened, a handsome young boy came out.

He stood at the door holding a whisk, looking at the bustling crowd outside, and just bowed slightly, then said in a clear voice: "My fellow uncles, brothers, and fellow Taoists, my master, the Divine Master, has something to say."

Having said this, the young boy paused. Strictly speaking, all the boys in the Nuwa Palace were Nuwa's disciples, and they were from the same generation as Guangchengzi and the others. As for Ying Zheng, that was another matter.

Outside the Queen Nuwa Palace, everyone held their breath and listened carefully.

"My master, the God, said that Master Zhen Yuanzi and Master Hongyun had listened to teachings in Zixiao Palace and had great fortune. They should be able to become saints. Saints have a transcendent status, so the two masters don't need to get involved." said the young boy.

"Haha, okay, then we'll say goodbye." Zhen Yuanzi smiled heartily, neither angry nor embarrassed.

In fact, he had expected this to happen. He just wanted to go out for a walk because he was too quiet.

"Wait a minute, my two uncles. The Great Master of God said that if you want to go in, I will take you in for tea. If you want to leave, I will give this thing to you." The young boy said to Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun again.

As he spoke, he slowly walked down the steps, took out a small box and handed it to Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun.

The two of them reached out to take it, opened it subconsciously, and saw a fruit inside.

However, as soon as the fruit appeared, everyone's faces suddenly changed. The fragrance of the fruit was so strong that just smelling it gave people the illusion of being filled with spiritual energy and floating in the air. At the same time, the Dao rhythm flowed in the fruit, and there was a wisp of purple spiritual energy lingering around!
"This thing?!" Zhen Yuanzi's heart trembled slightly. Somehow, he already understood the purpose of this thing. He hurriedly closed the box again, then bowed, "Please thank your family's God Master for me."

The young boy nodded.

Compared to Zhen Yuanzi, Hong Yun just stood there.

It was not until Zhen Yuanzi tapped him that Hong Yun came back to his senses. Then he smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect that such an opportunity would come again."

In the past, he heard that the Purple Sky Palace was granted the Hongmeng Purple Qi by the ancestor Hongjun. Unexpectedly, it led to a disaster. Not only did he not get the Hongmeng Purple Qi, but he also died.

Fortunately, he was rescued by Ying Zheng and Zhen Yuanzi and escaped the disaster.

He never thought that the opportunity to become a saint would now be before him again.

Looking at the fruit in front of him, Hong Yun raised his head and looked around. He could see all kinds of emotions such as envy, jealousy and desire in everyone's eyes.

That look was exactly the same as the one everyone gave him when he obtained the Hongmeng Purple Qi in Zixiao Palace.

But this time, Hong Yun grinned, picked up the fruit in the box, and swallowed it directly. Then he sat down at the door of the Wa Palace and began to meditate and refine the spiritual fruit!
Seeing Hong Yun's reaction, everyone at the gate of the Queen Wa Palace was stunned.

But Zhen Yuanzi couldn't help but smile. He knew that Hong Yun was afraid of the rope after being bitten by a snake once. He was afraid that the spiritual fruit in his hand would bring disaster again, so he simply ate it outside the Wahuang Palace.

He ate the certificate outside the Nuwa Palace. Who would dare to cause trouble under Ying Zheng's nose? !
After laughing, Zhen Yuanzi also took out his own fruit and ate it under the gaze of everyone.

After taking the spiritual fruit, Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun both broke through the shackles and achieved the Hunyuan Daluo Dao Fruit soon.

The way of heaven was shaking, auspicious clouds appeared, the city was prosperous, and immortal music was playing. Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun both attained enlightenment and achieved the status of saints in front of everyone.

After achieving sainthood, Hong Yun stood up with an unprecedented look of ease.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! I cannot repay you for your great kindness!" Hongyun bowed to the Queen Wa Palace.

After Hong Yun expressed his gratitude, Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun did not stay and left. "There are many things going on in the Wa Palace today, so we two will not disturb you. Come and thank you again another day."

"Two Taoist friends, take care."

In the Queen Wa Palace, Ying Zheng's voice also greeted him.

After Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun left, the eyes of the remaining people became even more fiery. They all stared at the young boy at the door.

The young boy walked back up the steps slowly and said, "My master, the God, also said that you all came for the throne of the Heavenly Emperor. He already knows this. But the throne of the Heavenly Emperor is not something that ordinary people can obtain. Anyone who is not a disciple of a saint can go back. The master has a Hongmeng Spirit Fruit for you. Although it is not as good as the previous spiritual fruit, it is also an ordinary product."

As the young boy said this, he brought out another plate. On the plate were many Hongmeng spiritual fruits.

After taking this fruit, one can improve cultivation and aptitude. It is also beneficial to Quasi-Saints, and is considered a rare good thing.

This item can be exchanged in the God Network, but the required God Network points are extremely high!

Now that Ying Zheng gave it to them for free, everyone was happy.

After everyone got a Hongmeng Spiritual Fruit, they all thanked and left. In the end, only Guangchengzi and his disciples of the Chan Sect and Jinling and his disciples of the Jie Sect were left.

"Brother Ying Zheng is indeed on our side."

Guangchengzi grinned.

After persuading all the great powers of the ancient times to retreat, the throne of the Emperor of Heaven would naturally be theirs.

Although there is only one throne for the Emperor of Heaven, and there are so many people left fighting for it, at least the meat is rotten in their own pot.

"Dear brothers and sisters, my Great Master God has one last word to say. It is not easy to sit on the throne of the Emperor of Heaven. He advises you to go back and practice honestly. Of course, if you are really determined not to fear difficulties, then come in. In the Queen Nuwa Palace, the Great Master God said that he has prepared several trials for you." said the young boy.

"Haha, senior brother, you are joking. The throne of the Heavenly Emperor is naturally not something that ordinary people can sit on. But we are all determined to not fear difficulties." Chi Jingzi was the first to laugh.

"That's right, that's right, we have come this far. We will naturally not turn back. Since our senior brother has given us a test, we should certainly hone ourselves." The Immortal of the South Pole followed.

"We are not afraid of training, we are just afraid that our senior brothers will not train us." Wu Dang Sheng Mu also said with a smile.

"Then please come in, brothers and sisters." The young boy invited everyone.

“Gah~Boom!”…

While Guangchengzi and the others were talking, the tightly closed door of the Wahuang Palace finally began to sway slowly and opened little by little. In an instant, the eyes of everyone present seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, and all of them were cast towards the slowly opening door.

After the door opened, a handsome young boy stepped out. He held a whisk in his hand and stood steadily at the door. He glanced at the bustling crowd outside the door, bowed slightly, and then said in a clear and loud voice like a silver bell: "Dear uncles, brothers and fellow Taoists, my master, the God, has something to tell you."

At this point, the young boy paused for a moment. Strictly speaking, all the boys in the Nuwa Palace were Nuwa's disciples, and were disciples of the same generation as Guangchengzi and his people. However, Ying Zheng's situation was rather special, and had to be treated differently.

At this moment, there was silence outside the Queen Wa Palace. Everyone held their breath and concentrated their attention, afraid of missing any word.

"My master, the Divine Master, said that Master Uncle Zhen Yuanzi and Master Uncle Hong Yun once listened to the great Dao in Zixiao Palace. They are both blessed with great fortune and should have attained the status of saints. Saints are respected and have a transcendent status, so the two masters do not need to get involved in this matter." The young boy said slowly.

"Haha, okay, then we'll say goodbye now." Upon hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi laughed heartily, with neither a trace of anger nor embarrassment on his face.

In fact, Zhen Yuanzi had expected such a result. He came out this time just because the long period of peace made him want to move around and walk around.

"Please stay, my two uncles. The Great Master God also said that if you want to enter the Queen Wa Palace, he will take you in to drink tea; if you want to leave, let me give this thing to you." The young boy then said to Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun.

As he spoke, he walked down the steps slowly with steady steps, took out an exquisite little box from his arms, and handed it to Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun with both hands. (End of this chapter)
