The Legend of the Great Desolation: I Am the Fortress

Chapter 144 Sent to Reincarnation
The verdict is usually revealed by the Heavenly Way based on everything that happened to the ghost during his lifetime.

The Judge assists the six paths in their normal operation. The six paths of reincarnation are already considered part of the heavenly way.

So generally speaking, people follow the will of heaven, read out the verdict, escort the ghost through the Yellow Springs Road, cross the Naihe Bridge, and finally drink a bowl of Mengpo soup in front of the Wangxiang Terrace.

Complete all the paths one by one, and finally be reborn into the corresponding path and reincarnate again.

Of course, the judge can also forcibly change the verdict.

Just like Judge Cui, Ju Hua originally just returned to the three thousand worlds of the human world, but he directly changed his mind and devoted himself to the way of heaven.

However, no one can change it, but generally no judge will change it at will.

Because as long as the verdict is changed, there will be a price to pay and it will affect the merits.

The more outrageous the changes are, the greater the impact of the merits and virtues, and some verdicts cannot even be written.

Changing Ju Hua's verdict from the human way to the heavenly way required Judge Cui to make a lot of merit. However, to give Sun Wukong face, he didn't care.

He has known this monkey for a long time, dating back to ancient times.

One of them is the divine stone for mending the sky left by Nuwa, and the other is the spirit of the innate ultimate spiritual treasure, the Book of Life and Death, in the hands of Nuwa.

The two can be said to have the same origin.

"Junior Brother, have you thought it through?" Sun Wukong looked over immediately. "Although this was a spur-of-the-moment decision, you still have to think it through. It would be best if you could also choose a good place for your master."

Upon hearing this, the immortal Ju Hua also looked over.

Reincarnation is like being labeled again.

Although walking the path of heaven and man is nurtured by heaven and earth, you still have to choose carefully where to go.

This is because the celestial beings are all born from heaven and earth and have no tribal ties, but there are powerful forces in the heavenly realm, and those born there will naturally be labeled with this.

"Where should Master go?" Lei Zhan pondered. He also knew that for Master Ju Hua, a good family background would have a profound impact.

"Master, do you want to go?" Lei Zhan thought for a moment and whispered.

"Me? I'm not very familiar with the heavenly realm either." The voice of the immortal Ju Hua sounded in Lei Zhan's heart.

"Hmm..." Lei Zhan pondered. Although he had some ideas in mind, he still couldn't make up his mind.

After all, the Heaven Realm Hundred Graves Mountain will not be so peaceful in the future. Moreover, the Hundred Graves Mountain cannot provide much help to Master Ju Huaxianren once he is born.

"This..." Sun Wukong was scratching his head. "If Junior Brother hasn't made up his mind, then just let Ju Hua go to Beihe Gate! Senior Brother Beihe is there too."

"Beihemen?" Lei Zhan was stunned and immediately remembered this force.

Among the many disciples accepted by Master Bodhi Patriarch, almost all are gods and immortals, including several true gods and Taoist ancestors.

In addition to those well-known ones, the fourth senior brother, the leader of Beihe Sect, is a top-notch god and immortal.

The leader of the Beihe Sect, originally a member of the ancient human race, now controls a river called the Beihe River in the celestial realm and has established the Beihe Sect. Under his command are seven or eight celestial gods and immortals, making him a dominant force in his own right.

"This... I have only met Senior Brother Beihe once. I asked Master to reincarnate and enter the Beihe Sect..." Leizhan said in his mind, "Senior Brother, this... I didn't even mention it to you in advance."

"Brother Beihe loves wine. You can come with me some other day and bring a few jars of fine wine." The monkey waved his hand and said in a voice transmission:

"We are all from the same sect, so Senior Brother won't care about these things. Even asking him to accept you as his master wouldn't be a problem. Senior Brother Beihe also wields a sword, and although he's not best at swordsmanship, it's enough for him to teach you as a master. We are also from the same Fangcun lineage, which makes us even closer."

"Hmm..." There was thought in Leizhan's eyes.

When he guides his master in the future, he will only lead him into the door, provide him with various resources, and then lead him to become a disciple of a powerful person.

Now that he had completed this step, he had also entered the Fang Cun lineage...

The strongest factions in the entire Three Realms were none other than those few. Reincarnating into the Northern River Gate of the Heaven Realm was considered an excellent birth.

"Master, are you willing to go to Beihemen? Beihemen is a major force in the heavens, and it has seven or eight gods and immortals under its command. If you are willing, I will make arrangements for you."

Lei Zhan sought the opinion of the immortal Ju Hua. After all, when it comes to reincarnation, one has to choose the best.

"Of course, if Master doesn't want to join those big forces, I can guide Master in cultivation, and it won't be much worse than those big forces with True Gods and Dao Ancestors..."

Immortal Ju Hua was startled when he heard this, then immediately shook his head and said, "You don't have to sacrifice these favors for me. As long as you survive the heavenly tribulation, you will be a top powerhouse in the Three Realms in the future. That's enough!"

"Hmm?" Leizhan smiled.

indeed so.

With Leizhan's current growth rate, even the True God Daozu may be able to achieve it.

Although he is not as good at teaching disciples as his master, Patriarch Bodhi, but it will not be a problem for him to help Ju Hua become a god or immortal in the future.

Moreover, since he had guided Master Ju Hua into Taoism, he could be considered a half-disciple. He was also a descendant of the Fang Cun Mountain lineage, and could utilize the Fang Cun Mountain lineage's secret techniques and magical powers to grow rapidly.

"Okay." Leizhan smiled and said, "Master, then I will let you reincarnate to a good friend of mine."

It was slow, but these exchanges were all conducted in secret. How fast can cultivators communicate? In the outside world, it was only a moment.

"Brother." Leizhan looked at Sun Wukong and said in a voice transmission, "There's no need to trouble Brother Beihe. Just let Master go to my good friend."

"Go to your good friend's place?"

"Yes. My good friend is in the Hundred Graves Mountain in the Heaven Realm!" Sun Wukong nodded, turned his head to look at Judge Cui who was waiting above, and said concisely: "Heaven Realm, Hundred Graves Mountain." "Hundred Graves Mountain?" Judge Cui nodded thoughtfully, hesitated for a moment, and slowly spoke:

"Ju Hua, a native of Dongling County in the Great Xia World, achieved perfect earthly immortality and possessed some merit. He was sentenced to reincarnation... into the heavenly realm. He was reborn as Ju Hua in the Hundred Graves Mountain of the Heaven Realm!"

A solemn and majestic voice sounded, and immediately echoed over the entire First Judge's Hall.

"Thank you, Judge Cui!" Immortal Juhua immediately bowed respectfully.

Although this verdict was made at the cost of the Great Sage's favor, the immortal Ju Hua knew that the one who would ultimately lose merit was Judge Cui, Cui Jue, who made this verdict.

"No need to thank me. Go!" Judge Cui smiled.

……

High in the sky, a god with an ox head stood on the gray clouds. Beside him were the immortal Ju Hua, Lei Zhan, and Sun Wukong, who had just come out of the First Judge's Hall.

"Niutou, why are you, a rough fellow, leading us to the underworld? You didn't even ask for a more graceful and considerate woman."

There was a hint of ridicule on Sun Wukong's face, but it was just talk. He flew all the way towards the Yellow Springs Road, but his speed did not slow down at all.

"The great sage is joking."

The Bull Head was not as tall as it was at the Ghost Gate before. It was only slightly taller than an ordinary person. It had a huge bull head and a hint of honesty in its eyes.

"The Yellow Springs Road is ahead."

Lei Zhan and Ju Huaxianren both looked over and saw a vast road ahead. On the road, there were also countless teams of ghosts moving slowly forward.

"Follow the Yellow Springs Road and you will soon reach the Naihe Bridge. After crossing the Naihe Bridge and drinking Mengpo Soup, you will be able to be reincarnated."

Niu Tou said this, turning to look at Ju Huaxianren. Ju Huaxianren had long ago disintegrated his Golden Lotus Primordial Spirit, and now only a wisp of soul and true spirit remained.

"Thank you, Lord Niutou!" said the immortal Juhua respectfully.

"Go!" Niu Tou nodded and waved his hand. The immortal Juhua was surrounded by a faint light and landed directly at the front of the team.

He muttered to himself, "Looking at this man's soul, he's just a wandering immortal, yet he actually had to ask the Great Sage to personally visit him, and even asked Lord Cui to spend merit to modify his verdict..."

Niutou was curious. He had seen everything that happened in the First Judge's Hall.

You should know that the underworld can be on par with the heaven because it is involved in assisting the operation of the heaven, just like the heaven.

Although it is relatively easy to gain merits and the level of cultivation can be improved faster, correspondingly, one must also follow the rules of the way of heaven and strictly abide by them in daily life.

Therefore, in the underworld, every action must conform to the will of heaven.

Things like opening a backdoor, affecting merit is just a small matter. However, if it affects fortune and luck, it may even have some impact on cultivation.

"Master, go ahead." Leizhan looked at the immortal Juhua who was already in the front of the line and smiled.

At this time, the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Ghost Soldiers beside the team saw the Yin Shuai Ox-Headed Ghost in the sky, and none of them dared to say anything. There was even a special Ox-Headed Ghost Soldiers who followed the immortal Ju Hua and was very polite.

Are you kidding? Marshal Niutou is watching from the sky, who dares not to give him face?
……

The immortal Juhua walked slowly. The Yellow Springs Road was shrouded in fog, and countless groups of ghosts were marching in parallel.

Soon, they walked into the area ahead where the fog was extremely heavy.

"The Naihe Bridge is just ahead, let's go." The voice of the Bull-Headed Ghost Soldier beside him was dull, but unusually kind.

Immortal Juhua nodded and stepped in.

Naihe Bridge, Wangchuan River...

The immortal Ju Hua was walking along a narrow path with few ghosts around, passing by the Three Lives Stone. Not far away was an earthen platform.

"Brother, do you still want to watch?" Sun Wukong smiled. "What happens next is nothing special. Meng Po will prepare a bowl of yellow soup. After your master drinks it, he will be able to enter the six realms of reincarnation directly."

In the gray clouds high in the sky, Leizhan and Sun Wukong stood side by side, with Niutou following beside them in a humble manner.

"Junior brother?" Sun Wukong called again, "Hmm?"

Leizhan looked down with a dim gaze.

Below is the Naihe Bridge that spans the Forgetful River. The speed of time here is completely different from that in the outside world.

As the saying goes, one day in heaven is one year on earth. This is the change in the speed of time.

The speed of time flow on this Naihe Bridge is even more exaggerated, even more exaggerated than the place of time and space confusion where Leizhan had stayed.

One day in the underworld, at the Naihe Bridge, no one knows how many years have passed.

"Naihe Bridge..."

Leizhan whispered softly.

"Time...is this time?"
