Primordial Era: Starting with Self-Created Mythical Great Luo Law

As soon as he finished speaking, the avatar bowed and accepted the order. In an instant, a dazzling pillar of light split open in the sky, and the power of merit poured down and into his body.

His aura rose steadily, and in the blink of an eye, he had reached the realm of a great supernatural being.

At this moment, he transformed into a figure draped in a nine-dragon robe, wearing a crown that reached the heavens, and imperial boots. His face was majestic and awe-inspiring, and his aura was intimidating.

"Since I am the Great Emperor of Fengdu, I shall take reincarnation as my foundation, govern the Netherworld, and fulfill my mission without failing."

Seeing this, Chen Yu nodded in satisfaction, then raised his hand and made a sweeping motion in the air.

With a slight raise of his right hand, a galaxy surged at his fingertips, and a spacetime rift suddenly opened.

A magnificent palace rose from the ground, stretching across the depths of the netherworld.

This palace is called Fengdu Ghost City, and it was the seat of the Fengdu Emperor.

All the great supernatural beings and saints who witnessed this scene were shocked and speechless.

Creating the world from scratch is already difficult, but Chen Yu was able to create a branch of time and space out of thin air and build an independent world, which is truly an astonishing feat.

The Emperor of Fengdu bowed deeply to Chen Yu, then turned and entered the Ghost City to assume his post.

Chen Yu did not linger, but continued to work on perfecting the reincarnation system.

"The Emperor of Fengdu is supreme, but he cannot stand alone. He needs the assistance of the Five Ghost Emperors to jointly manage the affairs of the underworld."

After speaking, he glanced at the assembled heroes and directly pointed out five people.

All five of them have a deep karmic connection with reincarnation, and their virtues and qualifications are all worthy of the position of the Five Ghost Emperors.

Chen Yu did not pause and continued his advance.

"Under the Five Directions, there should be Ten Kings of Hell, who are in charge of judging souls and matters related to reincarnation."

He then turned to the remaining ten Ancestral Witches and ordered each of them to condense an avatar to serve as one of the Ten Kings of Hell.

Then, with another wave of his hand, he opened up a new space-time, constructing ten Yama Palaces, located in various realms of reincarnation.

With the appointments completed, Chen Yu initiated the next stage of the organizational structure.

"Below the Ten Kings of Hell, there should be Ten Great Underworld Marshals to command the ghost army of the underworld and to be in charge of capturing evil spirits and conquering evil monsters."

"These ten Yin Marshals bear a heavy responsibility, and their candidates should be selected from among the best of all the races of the primordial world."

Having said that, Chen Yu slowly uttered his name:

"Ghost King, Day Wanderer, Night Wanderer, Impermanence, Ox-Head, Horse-Face, Leopard Tail, Bird Beak, Fish Gills, and Wasp are the Ten Great Underworld Marshals."

As soon as he finished speaking, ten figures emerged from the void and stood in the center of the Land of Reincarnation. They were the people Chen Yu had chosen.

"Below the Ten Great Underworld Marshals, there is still a need to establish the Soul-Catching Messenger of Reincarnation."

"The duty of the soul-reaper is to guide the souls of those who have reached the end of their lifespan. All those whose lifespan in the mortal world has ended are to be taken back to the underworld by the soul-reaper."

"Furthermore, within the cycle of reincarnation, there are also underworld generals and soldiers who are dedicated to warfare and killing, and to protecting the peace of the underworld."

At this point, Chen Yu looked at the eleven Ancestral Witches again and slowly spoke.

"Each of the twelve Ancestral Witch tribes dispatched 100,000 troops to form a legion permanently stationed in the Land of Reincarnation, dedicated to guarding this place."

As soon as Chen Yu finished speaking, his tone left no room for argument, and even if the eleven Ancestral Witches had objections, they could not speak up.

In fact, they had no choice but to accept it—the land of reincarnation was created by Houtu, and as ancestral witches, it was only natural for them to protect this place.

Moreover, this move is actually a precautionary measure.

Even if the Witch Clan loses the battle against the Demon Clan in the future, or even suffers a defeat and retreat, the Land of Reincarnation can serve as a last resort to protect the remnants and preserve their foundation.

Given such profound meaning, the eleven ancestral witches had no reason to refuse and all nodded in agreement.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Yu began to arrange positions, with a focus on the Jie Sect, appointing a large number of Jie Sect disciples to serve in the Underworld.

Each of the Ten Kings of Hell needs to be accompanied by a judge on the left and right, and these important positions are all held by disciples of the Jie Sect.

The remaining mid-level positions, such as patrolling, soul-collecting, and record-keeping, also mostly came from the Jie Sect.

Upon hearing this, the Tongtian Sect Leader chuckled, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

The Land of Reincarnation is the final resting place of all living beings in the primordial world. Making arrangements in advance and occupying key positions will bring immeasurable benefits in the future, and will also greatly benefit the sect's inheritance and expansion of influence.

Chen Yu glanced at everyone and slowly opened his lips.

"The appointments are complete; now it's time to begin construction."

He looked around, then turned to look at the Land of Reincarnation, his voice deep and resonant.

"A gate to hell should be erected here. All who enter the gate are dead souls, and the living are not allowed to pass."

"Beyond the Gates of Hell, there flows a river called the River of Oblivion."

"The waters of the River of Oblivion are so deep that even a feather cannot float on them, and living creatures cannot cross them. A special envoy must be appointed to guide the souls of the dead across the river."

"A path should be built along the banks of the River of Oblivion, named the Road to the Underworld."

"On the road to the underworld, there are no footprints of the living, only the souls of the dead."

"At the end of the road to the underworld, a bridge shall be built, named the Bridge of Helplessness."

"After the Bridge of Helplessness, a platform should be built, named the Platform of Fame and Glory."

"On the Terrace of Longing for Home, the Stone of Three Lives is placed, which allows one to observe the cause and effect of the deceased's past and present lives."

"Further into the Viewing Platform, there is a hall called the Hall of Bewitching Souls."

"Within the Hall of Bewitching Souls, the spirits of the dead can briefly return to the mortal world, visit their loved ones in dreams, and let go of their obsessions."

"Beyond the Hall of Bewilderment lies the Ten Kings of Hell."

"The Ten Kings of Hell are in charge of judgment, deciding the destination of all beings in the cycle of reincarnation."

"After the Ten Courts, lies the core of the Underworld, the place where reincarnation takes place."

"Since we are discussing good and evil, we establish eighteen levels of hell, and determine which level one falls into based on the severity of one's sins in one's previous life."

"The land of reincarnation should be divided into a realm and a city, named the Netherworld or the City of the Wrongfully Dead, for the souls of the dead to temporarily reside in."

"Eighteen levels of hell, each with a lord in charge of governing them."

After speaking, Chen Yu named eighteen people and appointed them as the lords of each level of hell.

"The Netherworld needs a Lord, and the City of the Wrongfully Dead needs a Lord."

Two more people were appointed to this important task.

With this, the Jie Sect added twenty more important positions, which were spread throughout the middle levels of the underworld.

Subsequently, Chen Yu channeled the power of the galaxy, creating branches of spacetime, opening up the void, and using supreme power to create all things and reshape the landscape.

When he stopped and stood still, the place of reincarnation had been completely transformed, unlike the gloomy and chaotic place before.

Now, the land is shrouded in the glow of a blood-red sun and a blood-red moon, their light reflecting off the dark, illuminating the entire desolate region and dispelling the gloom.

The underworld is now fully constructed. The witch clan dominates the upper echelons, and over 90% of the Ten Kings of Hell and other key positions are held by members of the witch clan.

The Jie Sect controls the middle-level system, and 90% of the judges, messengers, and prison officials come from its ranks.

Other positions are filled by people from all the races of the primordial world, such as the Five Ghost Emperors, the Ten Great Underworld Marshals, and Soul-Hooking Messengers, all of whom are virtuous and capable individuals in the world.

Chen Yu remained silent for a long time, gazing at the underworld before him, confirming that everything was ready.

"From this day forward, the Land of Reincarnation shall be renamed the Netherworld. This place is the final resting place of the souls of all races of the primordial era; the living are forbidden to enter."

"The Netherworld is the place where all living beings are reborn after death. Any living being that dares to trespass will be executed on the spot by the law enforcers of the Netherworld, and its true spirit will be sent to the eighteenth level of hell to suffer all the karmic retribution and never be able to be reborn."

After Chen Yu finished speaking, his gaze slowly swept over the great supernatural beings and the six saints present. He said no more and simply stared at them in silence.

Upon hearing this, all the powerful beings and sages looked at Chen Yu, and a sense of helplessness welled up in their hearts.

Since he has made it so clear, it is tantamount to completely extinguishing everyone's future thoughts of interfering in the underworld.
