Primordial Era: Oh no, the Witch Clan has produced a genius!

Chapter 46 Perfecting the Underworld and Distributing Fruits

The reason why everyone reacted so strongly was that they felt that Houtu's saintly aura was much stronger than theirs, and by a significant margin.

Logically speaking, Houtu is also a saint of merit, but the most important thing is that she did not sever her corpse, so her cultivation level should be lower than that of other saints.

However, the saint's aura was stronger than any of theirs just now, which made everyone frown.

"Fellow Daoist Yuanshi, this is my territory, and I will not tolerate your insolence here!" Houtu coldly looked at Yuanshi Tianzun.

Upon seeing Houtu's gloomy face, Yuanshi snorted coldly and withdrew his saintly aura.

Xuan grinned at Yuanshi Tianzun, his face full of disdain.

He then ignored Yuanshi and the others and began to improve the current underworld.

With Xuan Tian's intervention, the various facilities of the underworld, such as the Gate of Hell, the Road to the Underworld, the Terrace of Longing for Home, the Bridge of Helplessness, and the Eighteen Levels of Hell, became more and more complete. As the facilities were improved, an inexplicable pressure emanated from this newly formed underworld.

When Houtu saw the increasingly perfect underworld, a smile appeared on her lips. Sure enough, her thirteenth brother knew how to build the underworld.

This shows that he must have known about the underworld and reincarnation for a long time, and he had been planning for it all along; otherwise, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly.

Because after Houtu understood reincarnation, her first thought was to transform herself into a being in reincarnation, rather than using the Father God's heart to achieve reincarnation.

After the various facilities and buildings of the local government were completed, Xuantian gathered everyone in the Houtu Palace.

There is no Empress Pingxin in this life. In this life, Houtu is both a sage and an ancestral witch.

"I, Laozi, wish to claim the position of Lord of the Heavenly Dao within this cycle of reincarnation," Laozi said after everyone had gathered.

"This humble Taoist desires the position of the Lord of the Human Path," Yuanshi said after Laozi spoke.

"This humble Taoist desires the position of Lord of the Asura Path," Tongtian also spoke up.

The moment the three of them spoke, they instantly divided up the Three Good Paths.

Houtu did not speak, but instead looked at Xuantian, her meaning was clear: she would entrust this matter entirely to Xuantian.

Xuan Tian ignored the Three Pure Ones and instead turned his gaze to Di Jiang.

"Brother, now that the Underworld has just been established, you should accept the position of Emperor of Fengdu."

"Okay!" Dijiang agreed without any hesitation.

Now, all the saints and veteran quasi-saints of the primordial world have gathered here, which means there are benefits to be gained in the underworld.

Although he didn't quite understand the specific meaning of the position, he was certain that his younger brother would never betray him.

"Second brother, you shall receive the title of Emperor of the Eastern Peak."

When Xuan Tian uttered these words, for some reason, the Heavenly Dao trembled slightly, but this tremor came and went quickly.

After sensing the tremor of the Heavenly Dao, Hongjun was stunned for a moment, then began to calculate with his fingers, but he could not figure out anything.

The reason why the Heavenly Dao was shaken was because the Eastern Peak Emperor only obtained his divine position after the Great Calamity of the Investiture of the Gods, but this divine position actually existed as early as when the Underworld was first established, but no one paid attention to it.

"Okay!" Zhu Jiuyin agreed without hesitation.

As for the other Ancestral Witches, Xuan Tian assigned the Five Ghost Emperors to the remaining nine Ancestral Witches.

At this point, the higher positions in the underworld have been allocated.

Xuantian planned to have the remaining Ten Kings of Hell and judges appointed by the soon-to-be-born Witch Clan and Human Clan. In this way, the Underworld would become the Witch Clan's private domain, and even Hongjun would be unable to interfere.

After distributing the gifts, Xuan Tian turned his gaze to the assembled saints and veteran quasi-saints.

"Don't even think about becoming the Lord of the Human Path or the Lord of the Asura Path, it's impossible." Xuan Tian said calmly to Yuan Shi and Tong Tian.

"Then I shall take the Hell Path," said the Tongtian Sect Leader, who was quite agreeable.

"Just because you want it, does that mean I have to give it to you?" Xuan Tian scoffed.

"This humble Taoist is willing to exchange nine Nine-Turn Golden Pills for the position of Lord of the Heavenly Dao," Laozi said first.

Since the primordial world has not yet been shattered, the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir is not that precious at present.

There are thirteen of us brothers and sisters.

"Alright, then thirteen Nine-Turn Golden Pills." Laozi nodded without any hesitation.

"Okay." Xuan Tian nodded.

The next moment, Houtu waved her hand, and a stream of light flew towards Laozi. Laozi reached out and caught it, and found that it was a palm-sized milky white seal. This was the position of the Dao Lord of the Heavenly Dao. As long as he refined this seal, he could become the Dao Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

"Don't even think about becoming the Lord of the Human Path. I want the position of Lord of the Human Path." Xuan Tian said calmly.

"This is a top-grade acquired spiritual treasure, the Mountain-Splitting Axe. I wish to use it to exchange for the position of Lord of the Hell Path," Tongtian said at this moment.

"not enough!"

"What does this fellow Daoist want?" Tongtian frowned.

"A heart-piercing lock!"

"Okay!" Tongtian nodded after pondering for a dozen breaths.

To put it bluntly, the Heart-Piercing Lock is just a magical treasure, but the position of the Lord of the Hell Path is different. In the long run, exchanging the Heart-Piercing Lock for the position of Lord of the Hell Path is not a loss.

"Fellow Daoist Styx, this Asura Path was prepared for you. You exchanged it for the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag. Isn't that a good deal?" After splitting off the Hell Path, Xuan Tian turned his gaze to Styx.

Upon hearing Xuan Tian's words, Hou Tu flicked her hand, and a black and red light flew towards the River Styx.

After obtaining the certificate of the Asura Path Lord, Styx suddenly had an epiphany, and then his gaze toward Xuantian held a hint of gratitude.

Xuan Tian was right; this was indeed a great opportunity. Without saying another word, he threw the Xuan Yuan Water Control Flag to Xuan Tian.

At this point, all five primordial flags were in Xuan Tian's hands.

"Fellow Daoists Zhunti and Jieyin, how about we offer you this realm of hungry ghosts?"

"Xuantian Ancestral Witch, what do we in the West need to give in return?" The guides did not show joy on their faces, but looked at Xuantian with vigilance.

"Six pure bamboos plus four lotus seeds of twelve-grade merit lotuses, isn't that too much to ask?" Xuan Tian looked at Jieyin and Zhunti with a smile.

After hearing Xuan Tian's conditions, Jieyin and Zhunti discussed them telepathically and finally nodded in agreement.

After obtaining the Lord of the Hungry Ghost Realm, Jieyin and Zhunti did not delay at all. They immediately used spatial teleportation to summon Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva of the West and handed over the Lord of the Hungry Ghost Realm to him.

"Ksitigarbha will not fail the Buddha's painstaking efforts. I, Ksitigarbha, hereby vow to do my utmost to transform the hungry ghosts and guide them toward goodness. I will not become a Buddha until hell is empty."

As soon as Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva finished speaking, a muffled thunderclap reached everyone's ears, signifying that the Heavenly Way had acknowledged Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's vow.

"Go!" Xuantian said with a smile to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

In his previous life, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva only converted evil spirits on the banks of the Blood Sea River. In this life, he has become the Lord of the Hungry Ghost Realm, which can be considered his good fortune.

Now that only the animal realm remains in the cycle of reincarnation, Yuanshi immediately took out two innate spiritual treasures without saying a word.

"I will exchange these two innate spiritual treasures for the position of Lord of the Animal Path."

"I'm sorry, but this Animal Path isn't yours either, Goddess Nuwa. Now that you hold the Demon-Summoning Banner, the position of the Animal Path Master is yours. What do you think?" Xuan Tian looked at Goddess Nuwa, who hadn't said a word from beginning to end.
