Primordial Era: I am a member of the Jie Sect, and I am the God of Literature.

Chapter 84: Ksitigarbha cultivates the path of great vows, his meditation is profound and secret, like a hidden treasure, hence he is called "Ksitigarbha!"

"Please, fellow Daoist," the judge said gently as they arrived outside the main hall of Fengdu.

"Well done, fellow Daoist, you've worked hard this time." Miao Shan also bowed, then glanced at the Fengdu Hall.

Outside the main hall of Fengdu, there is a Dao inscription carved with the innate Dao, which seems to be expounding the Dao of the Underworld at all times. Moreover, this place is located in the center of the entire Fengdu City, suppressing the fortune of the Underworld and holding the power of countless ghosts. It seems that the person inside can decide the fate of countless dead souls in the primordial world with every word and action...

When Miao Shan entered the Fengdu Palace, it was as if she had entered another world. The Fengdu Emperor sat in the center of this world, wearing an imperial crown and a Netherworld Imperial Robe, with endless pressure emanating from him.

"Miaoshan greets the Great Emperor of Fengdu," Miaoshan said, bowing deeply.

"Who is it beyond the Netherworld?" Beneath the imperial crown, it seemed no one could see the expression on the Great Emperor of Fengdu's face; only his faint voice could be heard.

"Your Majesty, outside the Netherworld is my senior brother, Ksitigarbha. He was supposed to enter the Netherworld with me, but he had other matters to attend to and was delayed." Miao Shan didn't know why the Emperor of Fengdu was so curious about her senior brother, but she still answered.

"Good. My underworld has a special connection with Ksitigarbha. You can go back and speak with Ksitigarbha. I welcome Ksitigarbha to the underworld."

"I already know your purpose. Since it is the words of a sage, it should be so." After the Emperor of Fengdu finished speaking, the golden lotus above Miaoshan's head slowly came to the Emperor of Fengdu. The next moment, the phantom of the Six Paths of Reincarnation appeared, and the golden lotus carrying Yang Tianyou's primordial spirit instantly entered the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

This was the first time Miao Shan had seen the Six Paths of Reincarnation. The aura of the Great Dao emanating from it was completely different from the myriad paths of the primordial world. Moreover, the Six Paths seemed to contain the myriad things of the primordial world. Just one glance gave Miao Shan a profound understanding.

When Miaoshan and Dizang were outside the Gates of Hell, Fengdu had a sudden realization. Although the secrets of heaven were concealed, Fengdu could vaguely guess who was behind the changes in the fortune of the underworld. Sure enough, it was Dizang.

Fengdu does not reject Ksitigarbha's entry into the Netherworld. Ksitigarbha's appearance can not only greatly increase the fortune of the Netherworld, but also make the Netherworld operate faster.

Although the underworld's fortune will be taken over by Ksitigarbha, there are gains and losses. Overall, Ksitigarbha's entry into the Netherworld is more beneficial than harmful. Moreover, Ksitigarbha is now a Great Luo Golden Immortal. After entering the Netherworld, who will be in charge will be decided by Fengdu. He will also be a great master...

Yang Tianyou's soul was even less surprised. Another avatar of his original body had taken in Yang Jiao, Yu Ding had taken in Yang Jian, and Nuwa had taken in Yang Chan. The West had essentially gained nothing and was naturally unwilling to accept it, so it took in Yang Tianyou's primordial spirit.

When sending Yang Tianyou into reincarnation, Fengdu also observed his primordial spirit. His soul had no special abilities or outstanding features, but it was extremely pure. After entering the Western Paradise, his cultivation should have some opportunities and good fortune.

Meanwhile, back at the Three Mountains Pass, Su Shao Chen also received news from Fengdu. He couldn't help but marvel at how Yang Tianyou, a mere mortal, could be taken to the West. Yang Tianyou's life was truly extraordinary…

Yang Tianyou, a mere mortal, captured Yunhua's heart and gave birth to three children with extraordinary talents. Even after his death, his primordial spirit was valued by the sages and transferred to their sects. If this were not the prehistoric world, Su Shaochen would even doubt whether Yang Tianyou was the chosen one!

Su Shao Chen was no stranger to the name Miao Shan. In later generations, she was a household name. After the two Western Saints retired, she was known as one of the three Western Saints and one of the four great Bodhisattvas in the human world.

Su Shao Chen didn't know when the other person was born, but what he didn't expect was that the other person was born during this period!

Miaoshan was later known as the Thousand-Hand Guanyin, while Cihang, after entering the Western Paradise, was known as Guanshiyin. Their paths were remarkably similar, suggesting that a conflict might arise between them after Cihang's arrival in the West.

On the other side, after hearing Fengdu Emperor's words, Miaoshan also cupped her hands and said, "Yes, Miaoshan will definitely convey the message when she returns. Thank you very much, Fengdu Emperor. My master is still waiting for Miaoshan to report back in the West. If there is nothing else, Miaoshan will take her leave."

"If we're talking about something, there really is one, which could be considered an opportunity for you. You see, in my Underworld, although there are eighteen levels of hell, the spirits of the dead have heavy karma and have endured many hardships, yet they still find it difficult to eliminate their karma. You cultivate the wondrous methods of the West and practice great compassion, so you can perform some good deeds in the Underworld this time." The voice of the Fengdu Emperor rang in Miaoshan's ears.

Upon hearing this, Miaoshan felt that it was a great deed in the unseen world, so she bowed and accepted the order to travel in the underworld.

Whether in the East or the West, the Emperor of Fengdu and Su Shaochen did not view it with any prejudice. Moreover, the path that Miaoshan would cultivate in the future was the path of great compassion. Since the path of compassion was also beneficial to the fortune of the underworld, Fengdu would naturally not refuse it.

Changing the subject, while Miaoshan was performing meritorious deeds in the underworld, Ksitigarbha also returned to Mount Sumeru. After Miaoshan entered the Western Paradise, it seemed that the mysterious opportunities he had were becoming more urgent, making him unable to wait for his junior sister. He returned to Mount Sumeru to pay respects to his master and ask his master to enlighten him.

Seeing that Ksitigarbha had returned alone, the Guide sat upright on the golden lotus of merit and inquired...

"Will this trip go smoothly?"

"I report to Master that your journey has been successful, but it seems that I am troubled by some inner demons, which have affected my cultivation. I have come here today to ask for your help." After telling Amitabha about the Guanjiang Estuary, Ksitigarbha said somewhat hurriedly.

Even the Amitabha Buddha was puzzled when he heard this. Although Ksitigarbha's aptitude was not outstanding, he was diligent in his cultivation, had a firm will, and his comprehension was among the best in the Western disciples. The Amitabha Buddha greatly appreciated and valued this disciple.

Upon hearing Ksitigarbha's words, he couldn't help but activate the Sage Laws and examine Ksitigarbha from head to toe. Not only was there nothing unusual, but Ksitigarbha's mid-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal realm was also about to break through to the high-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

With profound affinity and fortune like a dragon and a tiger, Jieyin seemed to guess something upon seeing this. Then, strands of the aura belonging to a saint appeared, and strands of the laws of heaven seemed to be able to see through everything.

After deducing what Miaoshan had done in the underworld, he further deduced that Ksitigarbha's opportunity was actually in the Netherworld, which surprised Jieyin. Then, his gaze pierced through the void, and a slight smile appeared on his face.

This immediately alerted the Emperor of Fengdu in the underworld.

"Greetings, fellow Daoist. Your kindness is truly admirable. You have been fortunate to have this opportunity in the Underworld. From now on, your Daoist heart will be even stronger." The Guide addressed Fengdu as fellow Daoist directly, and his tone was extremely kind.

"I have seen the Sage. Miaoshan can decide for herself, and it has nothing to do with me. However, the Sage's disciple, Ksitigarbha, has a special connection with my Underworld. I wonder if the Sage would be willing to let Ksitigarbha enter the Underworld? I can grant him a position, let him enjoy the Underworld's fortune, and receive the creation of the netherworld." Fengdu said to the Sage who received him.

After hearing the words of the Emperor of Fengdu, Jieyin deduced the secrets of heaven to their fullest extent, but the secrets remained unclear, and he could only discern a general outline...

Thinking of this, Jieyin also said, "Good. If Ksitigarbha is indeed destined to be in the underworld, he should also enter the underworld to perform some good deeds for the prehistoric world."
