Primordial Era: Becoming the Great Emperor of Humanity from the Start

Chapter 60 The Underworld!

On his journey to the Six Paths of Reincarnation, Jiang Heng learned more about it from the Ancestral Witch Xuanming.

Because of Jiang Heng, the Wu Clan has become extremely concerned about the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and many Wu Clan experts have already entered the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Among the six realms of reincarnation, the most important institution is undoubtedly the underworld, which is the foundation for the normal operation of the six realms of reincarnation.

When Houtu, the ancestral witch, transformed into a being of reincarnation, the Book of Life and Death, the Judge's Pen, and other powerful magical artifacts of the underworld had already been condensed.

With Jiang Heng's advice and after a thousand years of development, the place has undergone tremendous changes since its inception.

As soon as Jiang Heng and the Xuanming Ancestral Witch arrived outside the Six Paths of Reincarnation, they saw countless wronged souls being escorted by Ox-Head and Horse-Face towards the Underworld.

These bull-headed and horse-faced creatures are naturally all from the Wu tribe, and most of them come from the Houtu tribe within the Wu tribe.

Led by Ox-Head and Horse-Face, countless wronged souls walked the Road to the Underworld, passed the Terrace of Longing for Home, and arrived at the Hall of Yama.

In the Yama King's Palace, judges examine the Book of Life and Death to see all the sins of the wronged souls in this life, and then Yama himself determines their destination in the next life.

Those who commit grave sins are naturally cast into the eighteenth level of hell, where they must cleanse themselves of all their sins before they can be reincarnated.

If one has no sins and even possesses good fortune, drinking Meng Po's soup will allow one to be reincarnated and have a good next life.

The underworld is now largely complete and its normal operation is not a problem. Moreover, there are quite a few experts in the underworld.

Those ten Kings of Hell were all great witches from the witch clan, and their strength was basically at the top of the Great Luo Gold realm.

If any foolish monkey were to come to the underworld and cause trouble, not only would it destroy the Book of Life and Death, but it would probably be beaten so badly that it would question the meaning of life.

"How is it? After a thousand years of my efforts, isn't the Six Paths of Reincarnation doing quite well now?" said the Ancestral Witch of the Xuanming Sect with a smug look on his face.

"You've really worked hard!" Jiang Heng said with deep emotion.

The Wu tribe is not good at planning. When it comes to destruction, the Wu tribe is second to none, but when it comes to construction, the Wu tribe is completely stumped.

Xuanming Ancestral Witch is just a child who never grew up. There are other Ancestral Witches above her, so it's not her place to think about various issues.

Today, the Xuanming Ancestral Witch has established the initial framework of the Underworld in just a thousand years, which must have required tremendous effort.

"Compared to Sister Houtu's hopes, what I have is nothing, so I will absolutely not allow anyone to disrupt the Six Paths of Reincarnation," Xuanming Ancestral Witch said firmly.

As they spoke, Jiang Heng and the Xuanming Ancestral Witch arrived at the Bridge of Helplessness and saw Meng Po busy at work.

"Sister!" Xuanming Ancestral Witch immediately went to greet Meng Po when she saw her.

Meng Po was transformed from a wisp of the original spirit of Houtu, the Ancestral Witch, but due to the interference of the Heavenly Dao, she did not retain Houtu's original memories.

Over the course of a thousand years, the Xuanming Ancestral Witch remained in the underworld, and her relationship with Meng Po grew increasingly intimate.

The moment Jiang Heng saw Meng Po, his expression subtly changed. Unfortunately, the beauty before him was both her and not her.

After calming down, Jiang Heng and the Xuanming Ancestral Witch went to the Yama Palace, where the Ten Kings of Hell and other witch clan experts soon arrived.

Now is not the time for sentimental love; with the Western religions plotting wicked things, the cycle of reincarnation is the key issue.

The Western Religion's move this time must be driven by the two Western Saints behind the scenes, showing their determination to succeed. It will certainly not be an easy task to deal with them.

In fact, logically speaking, all the powerful beings in the primordial world can see that the witch and demon races are bound to have an epic war.

With the abilities of a sage, it shouldn't be too difficult for him to guess the approximate fate of the witch and demon races.

The best time to plot against the underworld would naturally be after the war between the witches and demons, after the witch clan had completely declined.

By that time, the Witch Clan would have declined, and the Underworld would be left helpless and alone. With only a few remaining Witch Clan members, they would be at the mercy of the Western Religion.

But this is also the predicament of the Western religion. There are many who are focused on the cycle of reincarnation, not just the Western religion.

If we wait until the Lich War ends, it will be extremely difficult for the Western Sect to plan the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Only by striking first, when all eyes are on the impending Lich War, can the Western Church hope to succeed.

This is why the Western religion was so eager to devise a plan for the six realms of reincarnation. And in fact, the Western religion did succeed.

"Let me elaborate on the situation regarding Western religions!"

Once all the experts from the Witch Clan in the Underworld had arrived, Jiang Heng took over the reins and spoke in a deep voice.

The witch clan members present did not react much to this, as if they did not have any aversion to it.

These witch clans naturally wouldn't react at all; in their eyes, Jiang Heng was no longer just a human.

This human before them had once overpowered the Ancestral Witch Zhu Rong within the Witch Clan. Without a doubt, Jiang Heng was definitely a powerhouse at the Ancestral Witch level.

Later, the earth-shattering battle between Jiang Heng and Donghuang Taiyi had already spread throughout the entire prehistoric world, and they had naturally heard about it long ago.

The Wu and Yao races have been at war for many years, and naturally they know a great deal about Donghuang Taiyi, a top expert of the Yao race.

Jiang Heng is a powerful figure who even Donghuang Taiyi finds difficult to deal with, something that no Ancestral Witch could accomplish.

The Wu tribe has always worshipped strength; might makes right. Based solely on Jiang Heng's power, none of the Wu tribe members present dared to utter a word of "no."

Secondly, all the Wu tribe members present knew that the Six Paths of Reincarnation was in its current state entirely thanks to Jiang Heng's planning and strategizing behind the scenes.

Moreover, when Houtu, the ancestral witch, transformed into the cycle of reincarnation, everything Jiang Heng did earned the utmost respect from the witch clan present.

All of this has naturally led to the current situation, where the Wu tribe in the underworld holds Jiang Heng in almost the same respect as they do for the Ancestral Wu.

"Not long ago, some disciples of the Western Sect came to the vicinity of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. At first, they did not make any special moves, and we did not pay any attention to them."

But these Western disciples seemed to be observing something, and began to frequently travel through the six realms of reincarnation, even attempting to enter the eighteen levels of hell.

We've discussed this for a long time and we know that the Western religion seems to have designs on the Six Realms of Reincarnation, but we don't know how to deal with it!

Yama, one of the Ten Kings of Hell, stepped forward first and recounted in detail the recent events that had occurred in the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

The Six Realms of Reincarnation is a relatively new concept, and Western religions likely don't have much understanding of it.

Therefore, it is understandable that the disciples of the Western Sect wanted to observe the six realms of reincarnation in order to find an opportunity to intervene.

In fact, to be precise, the doctrines of Western religion are closely related to the six realms of reincarnation, which is why Western religion is so concerned about it.

After observing for a period of time, Western religions should soon be able to discover the truth or falsehood of the six realms of reincarnation, and thus find a way to deal with it.

"From now on, if any disciples of the Western Sect dare to enter the Six Paths of Reincarnation again, send them back immediately!" Jiang Heng said without hesitation.

"Good! I've long wanted to teach those arrogant guys from the Western Sect a lesson!" The many witches cheered in unison.

The Wu Clan are fearless, and they show no fear even when facing disciples of saints.

"What if the Sage himself intervenes?" Xuanming Ancestral Witch asked with some concern.

Jiang Heng glanced at Xuanming Ancestral Witch with considerable surprise. The fact that Xuanming Ancestral Witch could think of this showed that she had changed a lot since before.

Perhaps it was because of the story of Houtu Ancestral Witch transforming into a being of reincarnation that the originally carefree Xuanming Ancestral Witch grew up considerably.

"What are you afraid of? So what if he's a saint? If a saint takes action, my witch clan dares to fight!" a witch clan member said defiantly.

Most of the witch clan members are so heartless that they dare to attack even when facing a saint who is practically invincible.

Perhaps this is why the seeds of the Wu tribe's eventual decline were sown. How could Heaven allow such creatures, who knew no reverence, to exist?

Of course, if all twelve Ancestral Witches were present, and a complete Twelve Capital Gods and Demons Formation was formed, and the true form of Pangu was condensed, it would not be impossible for them to directly confront a sage.

However, now is the time when the witch and demon races are about to engage in an earth-shattering war. If the witch race offends the two Western saints again, wouldn't they be attacked from both sides?

But you can't reason with the Wu Clan. Even if they are against the entire world, the Wu Clan will still fight until the sky is shattered.

"Don't worry! If I'm not mistaken, the two Western Saints will not make a move at this time!" Jiang Heng said confidently.

Now is the critical moment of the Lich Calamity. The Six Sages are high in the Thirty-Third Heaven, observing the changes of the calamity. They will not easily make a move.

If one were to inadvertently incur boundless karmic burdens, even a saint would find it an extremely troublesome matter.

Furthermore, the other saints might not agree to the two Western Saints interfering in the six cycles of reincarnation, and the Three Pure Ones have not yet separated.

If the two Western Saints are to take action, they must consider the attitude of the Three Pure Ones. After all, among the Six Saints, the two Western Saints have no advantage whatsoever.

However, given the shamelessness of the two Western saints, it's not entirely impossible that they would actually get involved themselves.

The key lies with the Wu tribe. In the primordial world, everyone knows that the Wu tribe is a bunch of fools who will fight at the slightest disagreement.

If the Witch Clan were to truly disregard all consequences and send out all their Ancestral Witches to directly confront the Sage, the Two Sages of the West would have to think twice.

Therefore, it is highly unlikely that Jiang Heng and the two Western Saints will take action; otherwise, the Six Paths of Reincarnation would not have been filled with only some Western Sect disciples at this time.

Based on this premise, as long as the two Western Saints don't make a move, what is there for Jiang Heng to fear from some disciples of the Western Sect?

Jiang Heng wanted to see if there were any decent disciples among the Western Sect who could rival him.

The current cycle of reincarnation is extremely important and absolutely cannot afford any problems, as it will directly affect Jiang Heng's future plans.
