God of Pets

Chapter 991 Lord of the Underworld
"Old Qin, when you were in danger at the Three Rivers Waterfall, who saved you?" The woman lay on her side on the cold jade bed, propping her cheek with her hand, and looked at Qin Beige and said calmly.

Qin Tianwang looked somewhat shocked upon hearing this, as no one except Du Tianwang should know about this matter.

After the woman finished speaking, she ignored him and looked at King Shang, saying, "Xuan Shang Company lost a batch of goods in the Northern Frontier. Who helped you find those goods in the end?"

“You…” King Shang’s pupils contracted.

Before the merchant and he gained power, they were tricked into transporting a batch of goods to northern Xinjiang. However, the goods disappeared halfway through the journey, and the merchant had to compensate the owner. That was the most devastating experience for the merchant, and it almost led to his downfall.

If it weren't for a benefactor's help that time, the merchants wouldn't have had the resources to support the King of Merchants, and thus the King of Merchants wouldn't exist.

The woman ignored him and looked at Jiang Tianwang, saying, "On Shiziyan Mountain, with whom did you play chess for three days and three nights without a winner, only to lose by one move in the end?"

King Jiang was also moved, looking at the woman in disbelief.

He was a chess enthusiast and his chess skills were extremely high. After he mastered the game, there were no more than four people in the world who could play against him. His most crushing defeat was on the mountain of Shiziyan.

King Jiang never mentioned this incident to anyone, not because he was afraid of losing face, but because it was because of that game of chess that he truly attained enlightenment and later became the King of Heaven.

It can be said that without that game of chess, there would be no King Jiang later on.

The woman's gaze swept across the faces of the Heavenly Kings one by one. For each Heavenly King she looked at, she would say something that moved them all.

The things she mentioned were not all done by the Heavenly King, but now everyone understands what she means; those people are all her incarnations.

Upon closer reflection, this woman has played a crucial role in the growth of each of the Heavenly Kings.

"Who exactly are you?" Feng Tianwang asked, staring at the woman.

"Does it matter who I am? What matters is that you all had a belief back then, that you wanted to save all living beings, that you wanted to save humanity from this endless cycle of reincarnation, that humanity would no longer be the weakest race in the world, no longer be weaklings who can be easily exploited, and that you wanted to break all the injustices in this world."

The woman's cold gaze swept across the faces of the Heavenly Kings: "But what are you doing now? Do you know that destroying Sky City breaks the balance between the Sky Realm and the Earth Realm? The spiritual energy of the Sky Realm will no longer flow into the Earth Realm. At that time, the spiritual energy of the Earth Realm will be used up little by little, and it will eventually become a barren land without spiritual energy. Humans will no longer be able to embark on the path of cultivation."

“We knew this would be the outcome, but if we don’t destroy Sky City, the vital energy it sends to the Earth Realm, carrying depleted energy, will pollute the Earth Realm, and the final result will only be worse. If even our race is wiped out, what difference will it make whether we can cultivate or not?” Wind King expressed the helplessness in everyone’s hearts. “Who told you that depleted energy will pollute the Earth Realm?” The woman’s words stunned everyone.

Feng Tianwang paused for a moment and said, "Isn't that right? We can all sense that the energy of the Yellow Springs River and the Netherworld Sea is very similar to the depleted energy in this Sky Tower. They should come from the same source and will have a serious impact on humans. This is the energy of death. What else could it be but pollution?"

The woman said dismissively, "You're right, decaying energy does have a serious impact on humans and does indeed have the property of death, but that doesn't mean it's absolutely wrong. Humans and the earth spirits have been able to thrive and evolve on the earth for generations, constantly moving towards higher levels, precisely because of the existence of decaying energy."

"The old will eventually decay and decay, turning into nutrients to nourish the new and allow the new to grow stronger. Birth, aging, sickness and death are the laws of this world. Breaking these laws is the greatest pollution to the world."

"Exhaustion is the final destination of all life, and also the most beautiful nirvana in the world." The woman sighed softly, "The spirits of the sky should also be like the spirits of the earth and humans, undergoing nirvana in exhaustion when their lives should end. But some people have broken this rule, shielding the energy of exhaustion from the outside, attempting to create an immortal world."

"Such behavior is tantamount to making an enemy of the entire world, and will inevitably be met with a backlash from the world. The more the shielded decaying energy accumulates, the more difficult it will be for even such beings to continue shielding it. Instead, the accumulation of decaying energy has turned many areas into decaying zones where life cannot exist."

"In order to maintain this immortal world, that being introduced the depleted energy into the Earth Secret Realm through the Sky City, using the Earth Secret Realm as a place for sewage disposal, thus forming the Yellow Springs River and the Netherworld Sea."

"But he didn't expect that life would blossom in death. Because of the introduction of depleted energy, the secret realm of the earth, which originally had almost no higher life, actually produced higher intelligent life and evolved at an extremely fast speed."

"The speed at which those life forms evolved made the one who had been monitoring the Earth's Secret Realm wary. Whenever the life forms in the Earth's Secret Realm evolved to a certain extent, that one would kill them and carry out a great purge of life."

"Unfortunately, no matter how clean he was, he could not completely extinguish the life in the Earthly Secret Realm. The endless depletion energy, like the power of rebirth, allowed the Earthly Secret Realm to continuously give birth to new life."

"However, as the energy of the Earth Realm depletes, life forms from the Sky Realm will become infected by the depleting energy if they stay in the Earth Realm for too long, and will lose their immortality. Therefore, that person can only clean up the Earth Realm periodically and cannot stay in the Earth Realm all the time, otherwise they will lose their immortality."

"The River of the Underworld has never been a polluted river, but rather the shared mother river of humanity and the spirits of the earth. It is precisely because of the existence of the Netherworld Sea that excess depleted energy can accumulate and settle, providing a continuous source of life for the evolution of the Earth's mystical realm. The price is that neither humanity nor the spirits of the earth possess immortal bodies. At a certain time, they will all undergo nirvana in depletion, returning their life force to the Earth and the universe..."

The crowd's expressions shifted as they listened. This must be the woman of the Heavenly King, and what she said completely contradicted the information Chen Guan had brought back. For a moment, they didn't know who to believe.

"Who exactly are you? What evidence do you have for all this?" Xiu Jieming asked in a deep voice.

"My name is Du. You can call me Du Tianwang, or you can call me by my other name... Youming Dijun... the master of Youming City under the Yellow Springs River..." the woman said calmly.
