"Yin and Yang of Heaven and Earth, Eight Directions and Four Extremes, listen to my command and communicate with the Netherworld …"
The incantation was loud and majestic, as though thousands of divine officials were singing. The vibrations of the incantation rushed into the clouds.
The earth-shattering momentum caused the expressions of Wu Ming and the rest to change.
"Jade, come!"
At this moment, the City God waved his hand and the mutton-fat jade pendants that represented a thousand good points flew out from the four of them.
"Order! Return from Yin to Yang! "
The jade pendants fell into the hands of the City God and turned into powder. He scattered it in the air and formed a huge and magnificent jade door.
Kaboom!
The door opened and a large amount of Yang Qi gushed out like a river. Flames rushed into the sky wherever it passed. If it fell into the Netherworld, it would be a huge disaster.
Buzz!
Within the side hall, the four doors rose up and blocked the Yang Qi.
"Such a huge momentum?"
Wu Ming was shocked. "It seems like the power of Yin and Yang in this world is beyond my imagination!"
At this moment, the Yang Qi was like a tide that washed over them. Xu Ziquan and the rest showed a painful expression.
Traces of black gas that could be seen with the naked eye left their souls, causing their bodies to become even more flawless.
"After seven days in the Netherworld, I have been stained with Yin Qi. This is the process of detoxification …"
Wu Ming was very clear about this. He allowed the Yang Qi to wash away the Yin Qi that was entrenched in his body.
Unexpectedly, he was stained with the least Yin Qi, only a few traces. In contrast, Xu Ziquan and the rest were covered in black gas. After the detoxification was over, their souls were missing a chunk. It was shocking.
"The Yin Qi is gone. If you don't return to Yang, what are you waiting for?"
The City God shouted and an invisible force formed from the giant door. Wu Ming and the rest bowed to the City God and entered the passage.
Wu Ming was the last to walk. Before he left, he had already confirmed that the other side of the passage was the World of Gods and Ghosts. Only then did he step in.
At the last moment, he couldn't help but look towards the high platform and saw the black city god's golden eyes looking over with a strange expression.
Before Wu Ming had time to think, a powerful force surged forth and instantly wrapped around him.
…
"Is this … the mortal realm?"
Bright sunlight spilled into the room through the skylight. Wu Ming's body trembled as he opened his eyes.
Once a cultivator achieved the Yin Spirit, he or she would be able to tell if he or she had already returned to Yang.
Wu Ming raised his hand and looked at the clothes he was wearing. It was indeed what he had worn that night.
"Looks like my true body is definitely going to descend this time. This body hasn't eaten or drunk anything for seven days, so it's a little weak …"
Wu Ming took a deep breath of spiritual energy and circulated the Internal Refinement Technique. Going in the direction of a human and going against the flow to become an immortal was to refine one's Qi into essence to make up for the damage to his physical body.
Now that he had the strength, he slowly stood up. Then, he heard a surprised voice from the side, "Hero, you're awake?"
"Hero?!"
Wu Ming was confused, but when he saw the five-colored robe, the black gold hoop, and the Heavenly Designer Ring, he relaxed a little. He then looked at the person who spoke.
He saw I looking at him in surprise and praise, "The Lord Kurosan is tyrannical. He set up a Dharma Realm and wantonly collected the souls of the dead. It's fortunate that you were willing to enter the underworld to investigate. I, I, am truly impressed!"
"I entered the underworld willingly?"
Wu Ming rolled his eyes. He knew that this was the identity that the main temple had arranged for him. He didn't comment on it. He looked around and his eyes narrowed.
Beneath him was a Daoist array. There were over thirty people sitting inside, arranged according to the position of the Heavenly Dipper.
There were more than ten of them, but they were no longer breathing. They had turned into dried corpses.
"Heroes, I, I, am useless. I can only use the Sun Jade passed down by my ancestors to set up a great array to protect your bodies. However, only a few of you will be able to wake up after seven days … Sigh …"
I bowed and let out a long sigh.
"Over thirty Reincarnators. Are Xu Ziquan, me, and the other three the only ones who survived this time? This is the first side mission, isn't it? "
Wu Ming didn't want to stay in this room that was filled with the smell of death any longer. He strode out of the door.
There was a garden outside the door. It was colorful. Even a small leaf was full of vitality.
Wu Ming looked up. He couldn't help but squint his eyes in the warm sunlight.
This kind of feeling of life that he hadn't experienced for a long time was something that people who hadn't stayed in the underworld and experienced that kind of despair would never know how rare it was.
[Side Mission: Lost — completed! Reward: 200 small merit points!]
At this moment, the main temple's notification appeared, followed by a large light screen.
[Main Mission: Redemption!]
[Mission Description: Ever since the Ancient Heavenly Path underwent a great change, the prologue of a great battle has begun. Heishan Jun has established the Law Realm and is vainly attempting to unify the Netherworld. He is opposing the Black Platform City God, and a great battle is inevitable! And you have chosen the Black Platform City God's side!]
[Mission Objective: Kill or expel Lord Kurosan! Reward: 500 large merit points if successful! Kill if mission failed!]
[Side Mission: Culprit — Kill Lord Kurosan! Reward: 100 Heaven merit points! Kill 18 Cave Masters of Mountain River Cave under the Black Mountain. Each person will be rewarded with 500 small merit points!]
[Mission Setting: Medium! Mission Difficulty: Universe!]
[Note: Reincarnator Gengshen 69, respected Apostle of the Master God! According to your authority, you can choose to reduce the difficulty of this mission or double the reward!]
"Tsk tsk …"
Wu Ming looked at it, but his head hurt.
"This main temple seems to want to turn the world upside down? Kill Lord Kurosan? What kind of joke is this? "
At this moment, even if he used all his trump cards, he did not have much confidence against the Black Platform City God, let alone the Lord Kurosan.
"Even if I help the Black Platform City God to expel Lord Kurosan from the underworld, it is still a hellish level of difficulty!"
Of course, there was another option, which was to use the authority of the Master God to reduce the difficulty.
However, this was his last resort. Wu Ming had already made arrangements and could activate it at any time, so there was no need to make a decision right from the start.
"Also … in the world of the living, there seems to be officials and righteous people that I can borrow …"
Thinking about this, Wu Ming felt his scalp go numb.
During the previous mission, he did not consider it carefully and left some loose ends. If Wu Hong met him, his expression would definitely not be good.
He used his spiritual sense to look into the Suihou Pearl.
After the seal was undone, the Imperial Edict of Earth became even more mystical, and threads of extremely fine green light hung down continuously.
"Looks like Huang Weiqing, Qing Mangzi, and the rest are doing well in the underworld …"
This Imperial Edict and Dragon Energy were just a small capital, and they were the only things that he could rely on to complete this mission.
"Fellow Daoist Nameless!"
At this moment, Xu Ziquan, Li Suihan, Gong Yunshang, and the rest walked out, their faces extremely pale.
After not eating or drinking for seven days, even though they had achieved Internal Cultivation, they still needed time to recuperate. Now that they had received the mission, their faces became even paler, but they did not say much and went to find a room to recuperate, trying to recover their combat power as soon as possible.
"Where is this place?"
Wu Ming was the only one who was proficient in the Internal Refinement Technique and constantly transformed spiritual energy into nourishment. At this moment, he was still able to hold on. Moreover, as time passed, his complexion became more and more rosy, appearing to be full of energy. He could even run around, causing the bystanders to click their tongues in wonder.
"This is Yunlong Temple!"
The Daoist child who was called had two Daoist buns, which made him look rather cute. "Uncle-Masters, I told you to recuperate … Now, you are not the only ones living here, even the monks and sorcerers from other places are here …"
"Could this be the so-called Righteous Alliance?"
Wu Ming did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Looks like Lord Kurosan has made a big deal this time. This is our chance …"
He walked out of the garden aimlessly and came to a square. He saw a skinny Daoist walking by. When the person saw Wu Ming, he stopped and exclaimed in surprise, "It's you!"
"You are … the Daoist priest in that dilapidated Daoist temple!"
Wu Ming was stunned, but he immediately recalled.
Wasn't this person the person whom he had found in Hei Tai District during his previous mission?
Now that he was here, there was no doubt that he was a real Daoist cultivator.
However, when the Daoist priest saw Wu Ming, his eyes bulged, and his mouth opened so wide that one could stuff duck eggs in it. "You have tribulation aura, but you're still alive … No! You've already cultivated, and you've even opened up your Sea of Consciousness?! "
At that moment, the Daoist priest I felt that his beliefs had been severely impacted, and he began to doubt that his fortune-telling skill was coming.
"So, Uncle-Master Calycanthus Chinensis and this person are old acquaintances. That's great …"
The Daoist child found a scapegoat, but his eyes rolled. "A few of you are in urgent need of rest. Why don't Uncle-Master ask about the Underworld?"
"Okay, you can leave first!"
Calycanthus Chinensis looked at Wu Ming, waved his sleeve, and pointed to a small pavilion at the side. "Come, let's talk there!"
There was a stone table, a stone chair, a teapot, and a few teacups in the stone pavilion.
Calycanthus Chinensis poured a cup for himself, held it with both hands, and took a small sip. He squinted his eyes in satisfaction and let out a long breath. Suddenly, he said, "I did not expect you to be able to live until now, and even enter the Daoist path!"
His words were a little unreasonable, but Wu Ming nodded his head.
This Daoist priest I was indeed skilled. Previously, he had not opened his spiritual eye. Now that he looked at him again, he realized that I was also a sorcerer, similar to him.
Of course, if they were to fight, at such a close distance, he would be able to kill him instantly with his Five Thunder Palm.
"I have a lot of questions, but I don't know where to start …"
Wu Ming laughed bitterly. "How is Hei Tai District now? What happened after the incident at Black Water Town? "
"You don't know? You actually don't know? "
Calycanthus Chinensis was surprised, but when he saw that Wu Ming did not seem to be lying, he sighed. "It seems like after that incident, you must have had a fortuitous encounter and lived in seclusion for a period of time. Otherwise, you wouldn't have improved so much, and yet you don't know about this!"
