People in Conferred Gods: Rising from humble beginnings, I am the God of Wealth

Chapter 196: Plotting against the West, the two saints made plans, and the judges of life and death all recognized their master!
boom--!
At the moment Jie Yin's voice fell, a giant hand as white as jade suddenly slapped down, and with one slap the surrounding space was completely shattered, restoring the four basic elements of earth, wind, water and fire.

If the two saints from the West had not run fast, their projections of their Dharma bodies would have been shattered by this slap.

"The Netherworld does not welcome people from Western religions!"

Hou Tu narrowed her eyes slightly, her gaze spanning the endless space and falling on Mount Sumeru.

How dare you poach people right in front of her? Do you really think she's easy to bully?

No matter how compassionate Hou Tu is, no matter how much she cares about the ancient world, she was once the ancestor of the witch clan. If you really touch her reverse scale, no matter who you are as a saint, she will dare to drag the two saints of the West into the chaos to fight you.

Many years ago, Yang Xuan activated the power of the underground tunnel twice in succession, and Houtu had already noticed him. She sensed that Yang Xuan would bring some important changes to the underworld.

From that time on, Hou Tu began to pay attention to Yang Xuan, hoping that he could make a difference in the underworld.

Now that Yang Xuan has just been in the Netherworld for a few kalpas, he has proposed the theory of the underworld and has initially completed the construction of the underworld, giving the underground a management organization like that of heaven.

The emergence of the underworld will surely make the cycle of life and death of all living beings in the prehistoric world more orderly, and the prehistoric world will become more perfect.

Members of the Wu clan can also obtain the status of a god in the underworld and receive the protection of the underworld, so that they can survive better in the underworld and even practice normally.

As there are more evil spirits and ghosts in the underworld in the future, the members of the Wu clan will not have to suffer as much as before and will have more time to participate in the cause of reproduction.

In this regard, Hou Tu owed Yang Xuan a great favor.

What's more, the underworld has only been built as a framework, with many buildings yet to be completed, a large number of formations yet to be arranged, and the personnel arrangements for the ghosts and gods in the underworld yet to be finalized.

In this incident, Yang Xuan also dug up the Western Religion's disciples and brought them to the underworld. Dizang also took the initiative to announce the underworld and spread these things throughout the prehistoric world. This was equivalent to stepping on the face of the Western Religion and spreading the reputation of the underworld to all parts of the prehistoric world.

With this publicity, it will be easier for the underworld to recruit ghosts from the dead souls in the future, and things like recruiting ghosts and gods in the prehistoric times will also be easier.

After all, the top disciples of the Western religion have all abandoned darkness and joined the underworld to become a third-grade heavenly master. How bad can the underworld be?

Let me ask you one question: how could Hou Tu allow the Western religions to abduct such a talent?

If Yang Xuan didn't have a sense of belonging to the Heavenly Court, Houtu would even want to keep him in the Netherworld and let him shine in the Netherworld. As long as he was willing, could Houtu not benefit from him?

Afterwards, Hou Tu looked towards the underworld below, raised her jade hand lightly, and thousands of living beings including Maitreya disappeared.

Although these creatures are well hidden, and some of them are even gods in heaven, in the underworld, even with the help of saints to conceal the secrets, it is difficult to satisfy Hou Tu's eyes.

These creatures all had some cause and effect relationship with Western religions, and based on the principle of better killing the innocent than letting them go, Houtu threw all of them out of the underworld.

Are you kidding? You guys are poaching people right in front of me. How can I still keep your Western religious people in the underworld?
From now on, Western religions and dogs are not allowed to enter!
Mount Sumeru.

When Jie Yin and Zhunti saw this scene, they were both speechless with grievances. They had not expected Hou Tu's reaction to be so great.

You can just let Yang Xuan poach people from my Western Church, but why can't we just extend an olive branch to Yang Xuan? How can such an unreasonable thing be possible? !

Without Hou Tu's consent, they would not believe that Yang Xuan, a mere Taiyi Golden Immortal, would dare to steal the Western religion's support.

But even so, they still felt greatly impressed that Yang Xuan had the courage to do such a thing.

The reason why they extended an olive branch to Yang Xuan in front of Hou Tu was not only to disgust Hou Tu and regain their face, but also because they valued Yang Xuan as a person and wanted to bring him into the Western religion.

If Dizang could be exchanged for Yang Xuan, it would naturally be a good deal.

Although Yang Xuan's cultivation is average, he has an extraordinary status in the Heavenly Court. If Yang Xuan can be allowed to join the Western Religion, it will provide great convenience for their future plans.

When Yang Xuan established the Heavenly Rules, they felt that Yang Xuan had a connection with the Western religion and came up with the idea of ​​inviting Yang Xuan to join the religion.

So he took this opportunity to extend an olive branch to Yang Xuan, killing two birds with one stone.

They didn't expect that Hou Tu's reaction would be so big. If they hadn't run fast enough, they would have been injured by Hou Tu's palm.

"Forget it. The underworld has already been built, and the netherworld is watched over by Hou Tu. There is no merit to be gained. If you can't enter, then you can't enter. It doesn't matter."

"Our next focus should be on the Heavenly Palace. This matter concerns the prosperity of the West and we must not be careless."

"Yang Xuan is highly regarded by Haotian and has unparalleled power in the Heavenly Court. He will be beneficial to our future plans and has a connection with our Western Sect. We must recruit him as a disciple as soon as possible."

"Otherwise, judging from the attitude of the Earth today, if time drags on, it will definitely become a major obstacle!"

"It's time to speed up..."

Upon hearing this, Zhunti nodded in agreement.

After some deduction, he determined that Yang Xuan was on the verge of a breakthrough and would most likely not stay in the Netherworld for long, so he sent a message to Maitreya, asking him to wait for Yang Xuan to come out in the sea of ​​blood and find a way to "invite him back" to Mount Xumi.

No matter how you look at it, Yang Xuan's actions this time were aimed at prying into the Western religion.

With this cause and effect, even if Maitreya attacks Yang Xuan with his Daluo cultivation, it cannot be considered as bullying the weak.

Zhunti didn't believe that Houtu would intervene for this reason.

What's more, they are both saints. Even if they can't defeat Hou Tu, can they stop her?

As long as Yang Xuan reaches Mount Sumeru, they have plenty of ways to get Yang Xuan to convert to the religion.

"If this great celestial master of heaven can help me, the opportunity for my western prosperity can be advanced by at least ten eons!"

Jie Yin and Zhunti smiled at each other and temporarily put aside the unpleasantness in the Netherworld.

A sage is free from disasters and catastrophes, has a long-term vision, and temporary gains and losses do not matter to him.

Today, Ksitigarbha has gone to the underworld, so it is possible that he will return to Western religion in the future!

at the same time.

The netherworld, above the underworld.

Hou Tu naturally had no idea about Jie Yin and the other two's plan. After she threw Maitreya and the others out of the underworld, she looked at Yang Xuan deeply, feeling a lot of emotion in her heart.

"This little guy is too bold. He even dares to plot against the Western Church. The Styx is bold enough because of the Sea of ​​Blood, but he doesn't dare to do such a thing..."

Even though she is a saint, nothing in the underworld can be hidden from her eyes.

But no one expected that Yang Xuan had just finished his retreat and with just a few words, he dug into the Western Religion's corner and made Dizang voluntarily declare the underworld. For the sake of his own path, he abandoned his previous identity as a disciple of the Western Religion and took the initiative to join the underworld.

"The Taiyi Golden Immortal dared to plot against the Saint Sect. If he becomes a Daluo Golden Immortal, I'm afraid he might even dare to plot against the Saints..."

Thinking of this, Hou Tu couldn't help but look Yang Xuan up and down. Based on Hou Tu's understanding of Yang Xuan, she was basically sure that Yang Xuan was definitely not a person who was not afraid of tigers. Yang Xuan always planned before doing anything.

Thinking back to the conversation between Dizang and Yang Xuan in the Horse-faced Demon when Dizang first entered the Netherworld, Hou Tu felt more and more that this matter must have been planned by Yang Xuan for a long time in order to strengthen the prestige of the underworld and make it easier to recruit the underworld's evil spirits and ghosts.

Putting aside the offense to Western religions, this matter will bring great benefits to the underworld. No matter what, Hou Tu must come forward to help.

Afterwards, Hou Tu's figure gradually disappeared, and the surrounding space began to flow again.

At the same time, Hou Tu's voice echoed in Yang Xuan's ears.

"If you need anything in the future, you can call my name at any time. No matter where you are in the wilderness, I can sense you..."

Only Yang Xuan could hear this sentence, no one else knew it.

If you want to have a chance to perform, you need someone to cooperate with you. If you just say it directly, the effect won't be that good.

She didn't want to be like Haotian and Queen Mother, who hadn't even had a chance to show their abilities after several epochs had passed.

"Thank you, ma'am!"

When Yang Xuan heard this, he came to his senses and bowed solemnly to the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk.

If Hou Tu had not taken strong action today, he would probably have been captured by the two saints of the West.

More importantly, with Hou Tu's promise, Yang Xuan can be said to have completely relied on Hou Tu. Even the Six Saints of Heaven have to give Hou Tu some face, and the safety factor has risen sharply.

This incident happened so unexpectedly that even Yang Xuan himself did not expect it.

He really didn't expect what was wrong with Dizang. Why did he make such a major decision just because of a few words?

"No, maybe this old guy had already had the idea of ​​joining the underworld during the years when the underworld was being built, but something I said made him make the decision in advance, so this happened..."

Yang Xuan looked at Dizang with an expressionless face, but in his heart he wished he could slap this disaster star away.

"Since you have this idea, why don't you just find a deserted place and announce the tunnel yourself? Why do you have to drag me in? Do I need your money?!"

In fact, when Ksitigarbha announced the underworld, was recognized by the underworld, and bestowed the merits of the underworld, Yang Xuan also received a small part, recognizing his influence on Ksitigarbha.

In his opinion, the great vow made by Ksitigarbha was directed at the underworld, and the underworld was built by him, so the underworld would get a portion of the merit.

Anyway, he would not believe that I just casually introduced some basic information about the underworld and found an excuse to place the Emperor's Banner in the eighteen levels of hell. These ordinary things would lead Dizang to make a decision.

"It's definitely this old guy who thinks I can win over the queen, so he wants to use me as a shield. How insidious, really too insidious!"

Yang Xuan made up his mind that he must stay away from Dizang.

From now on, you will live in your Eighteen Levels of Hell, and I will be the Great Lord of Heaven, and at most concurrently serve as a god in the underworld. I don't think there will be any intersection between us.

But then again, if I could become your boss in the underworld, I would make you work overtime every day!

Dizang naturally had no idea what Yang Xuan was thinking. When he saw Yang Xuan looking at him, he immediately smiled, clasped his hands, and bowed seriously.

"I will never forget the kindness of the guidance of the Great Heavenly Venerable. From now on, if the Great Heavenly Venerable needs anything, I will definitely help you and will never refuse!"

Yang Xuan: ...

Is it really possible to do anything? Why don't you go back to Mount Xumi and tell the two saints in the West that it was you who wanted to leave the Western Church and join the underworld. It really has nothing to do with me.

However, with Ksitigarbha's promise, and his joining the underworld in advance, perhaps it will be possible to avoid the Buddhist sect stealing the authority of reincarnation in the future.

In later generations, when talking about the afterlife, in addition to the underworld, there is also the Buddhist paradise, which is the world created by those who stole the authority of reincarnation.

With the rise of Buddhism and the appearance of the Paradise, the underworld is no longer the only world after death.

Coupled with the Buddhist teachings, Buddhist believers are no longer so afraid of the underworld and death, which has a huge impact on the underworld.

Yang Xuan’s current position is not with any major religion, but mainly with Heaven. The relationship between the Underworld and Heaven is close.

The stronger the underworld is, the greater the benefits to the Heavenly Court. Naturally, he does not want to see Buddhism steal the authority of reincarnation in the future.

These are all things that happened later. Now the Conferred God Tribulation has not yet begun, and Buddhism has not yet been established. We can just take our time with this matter.

After a moment of silence, Yang Xuan nodded to Dizang and said in a deep voice:
"Fellow Daoist, please do not forget what you said. Since you have entered the underworld for the sake of all sentient beings in the prehistoric world, you should fulfill your divine duties conscientiously and never slack off."

"It is even more impossible to do anything that would harm the underworld and all living beings in the prehistoric world. Otherwise, I'm afraid the underworld will backfire, and the queen will not sit idly by!"

Even if I'm not your immediate boss, I still used my words to fool you. You brought me so much trouble, and I just let you adapt to the life of a cow and a horse in advance. You should thank me!
"Thank you, Great Celestial Venerable, for your reminder. I will fulfill my duties as a god with all my heart, educate the souls of the dead in hell, and help them escape from the sea of ​​suffering and reincarnate as soon as possible. I will never do anything that harms the underworld!"

Dizang bowed solemnly, then flew into the eighteen levels of hell, chanting Taoist scriptures to help the souls in hell gain wisdom and understand good and evil.

For a moment, the souls who were escorted to hell by the underworld officials all looked dazed as they listened to the Taoist voice echoing in hell. Their deeds in life flashed before their eyes like slides.

Most of the dead souls do not take it seriously, and some even think that it is extremely unfair to send them to hell to be punished and not be allowed to reincarnate just because of such a small matter.

However, there are also a small number of dead souls who show a trace of remorse and gradually realize the mistakes they made in their lifetime.

What these dead souls did not notice was that as they began to repent, the power of the earth swept through them, eliminating some of their karma, and even the punishment they had to endure was reduced a little.

However, these karmas and punishments did not disappear, but fell into the eighteen levels of hell and fell on Ksitigarbha. His body became heavier, and punishments such as fire and ice appeared beside him.

If this continues, Ksitigarbha will be unable to move forward, and his spiritual mind and body will suffer increasingly severe punishments.

But as long as he can get through it, his Tao heart will become clearer and his body will become purer. This is his Tao.

Take punishment for the endless dead souls in hell, comprehend the great Dao through punishment, and temper your heart of Tao!

But this kind of experience is definitely uncomfortable, and not everyone can do it. If you can't endure it, your spiritual heart will definitely be damaged, and it will be difficult to make any progress in your cultivation!

Although Yang Xuan thought that he was cheated by Dizang, he had to admit that Dizang's character was indeed admirable. His joining would surely make the underworld develop in a good direction!

Yang Xuan withdrew his gaze and sent a message to the high-ranking officials of the Heavenly Court, such as Jiu Tian Xuan Nu and Bi Xiao, as well as the members of the Wu Clan, asking them to come to the Fengdu Ghost Palace.

Yang Xuan's cultivation has reached the brink of a breakthrough. As long as he arranges the next matters in the underworld, he can return to heaven to prepare for the tribulation.

As for establishing the local rules, there is no need to rush. Even if someone thinks the same as Yang Xuan, Hou Tu will not let anyone seize the merit that belongs to him.

But just when Yang Xuan flew into the Fengdu Ghost Palace, two spiritual objects suddenly flew towards him. They were the top-grade innate spiritual treasures, the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen!
