"I'm Xu Ziquan. Greetings to the two of you!"
The young man turned around and ignored the ravenous ghost. He tidied his clothes and bowed solemnly. His every move was methodical and meticulous.
"I'm a Daoist, and I call myself Nameless. This person beside me is the Merit Supervisor of Black Platform Yin City. If Brother Xu wants to go with us, why don't you come up and have a chat?"
Wu Ming looked at Wei Shanchu. Seeing that he was signaling him with his eyes, he immediately spoke.
"Thank you for your hospitality!"
Xu Ziquan boarded the carriage and knelt behind the wooden table. However, his back was as straight as a spear. He exchanged glances with Wu Ming and instantly guessed each other's identities.
'As expected, this person cultivates the Legalist Mystical Power of the Dazhou World!'
However, Wu Ming's heart calmed down.
After all, he had spent time in the World of Gods and Ghosts. He knew that the power system here was far less complete than in the Dazhou World. There was not a single Legalist Mystical Power.
Yet, one had appeared here. Naturally, it went without saying.
After such a long time, he had finally found a Reincarnated Traveler.
'Also … this person's Spirit of Speech has actually reached the realm of' Words of Law '. He's definitely the best of the direct descendants of this generation of Legalists. He should be heavily nurtured!'
Wu Ming glanced at Xu Ziquan and had another thought.
The Legalists of the Main World took the law of the world as their responsibility. They also learned from the strong points of the ancient Qi Refinement cultivators and the Great Magi Zhu Dharma to comprehend a unique 'Incantation Spell'. Combined with their own thoughts, it formed a unique Mystical Power exclusive to Legalists. Thus, a unique system of Incantation Spell Masters and Law Masters was born.
It was rumored that the highest realm of Legalism could be cultivated to the point that one could speak the law of heaven and punish on behalf of the heavens! Their every move contained the laws of heaven and earth. It was abundant and unstoppable!
'The leader of Legalism in the Dazhou World now seems to be Cui Jue, right? I wonder what relationship this Xu Ziquan has with him? '
Wu Ming's eyes flickered.
Cui Jue was also a rare genius of Legalism. It was rumored that when he was young, he had once been the county magistrate of Diaohuang County.
One day, a woodcutter went up the mountain to chop firewood and was bitten by a fierce tiger. His widowed mother was in so much pain that she wanted to die. She went to the court and cried out her grievances. Cui Jue immediately gave out the cards and sent a yamen servant with a talisman to go up the mountain to capture the tiger.
The yamen runner read the talisman in front of the Shanshen Temple and placed it on the altar. The fierce tiger immediately came out from behind the temple and held the talisman in its beak. It let the yamen runner tie it up with iron chains and brought it to the yamen.
Cui Jue recounted the evil tiger's crime of hurting people, and the evil tiger nodded repeatedly. Finally, the verdict was, "Eating human life, a crime unpardonable." The tiger touched the stairs and died.
After the tiger died, the original Mountain God Temple also collapsed, and the gods no longer existed. It turned out that this fierce tiger was the Mountain God. Although it was a god, it could not change its habit of eating humans. When it encountered Cui Jue's law, it could only go down the mountain and accept its death!
After this matter got out, Cui Jue's reputation immediately skyrocketed, and he became the leader of the school of Legalism in his middle age.
The current Xu Ziquan was naturally not as good as Cui Jue when he was the county magistrate, but he should not be underestimated. In time, he would definitely become the leader of the school of Legalism.
"I also want to go to the Black Platform Yin City, thank you very much, Goddess!"
Xu Ziquan bowed to Wei Shanchu again, but his eyes that were covered by his sleeves glanced at Wu Ming. He was rather surprised and doubtful. 'This person is most likely a Reincarnated Traveler, but why do I feel fear when I see him? Could it be that this person has some Supreme Fate? Or is he from an aristocratic family, or is he a noble? '
'Don't punish the nobles, don't punish the commoners!'
Although Xu Ziquan was a genius of the new generation of Legalism, and he was not afraid even when facing Wei Shanchu, he could not help but feel some fear when facing Wu Ming.
This was the intuition in his heart that he had specialized in criminal law for many years.
Although the Legalism's Curse Law Divine Art could punish ghosts and gods, it was closely related to one's cultivation, and it also restrained one's luck.
Strictly speaking, if Cui Jue wasn't the county magistrate, it was unknown whether his Law Divine Art could summon the Guilty Mountain God with one card.
And if one's cultivation wasn't enough and forcefully took action, the backlash would be extremely serious!
At this moment, Xu Ziquan felt that even though he was not afraid of facing Wei Shanchu with his Law Divine Art, he would definitely suffer the backlash if he wanted to punish Wu Ming!
He felt that it was strange. 'Looking at this person's physiognomy, he's just a little rich, and he's declining in his middle age. His luck isn't especially great either, so why is it like this?'
Since Legalism's divine art had this flaw, as a member of Legalism, it was necessary to study physiognomy.
This Xu Ziquan had followed a famous teacher for many years and had some achievements, but he was puzzled now.
He didn't know that although Wu Ming's dragon qi was hidden in the Suihou Pearl, he had used it many times and still left some aura on his body. This was extraordinary!
Wei Shanchu stopped the carriage and invited them, as well as Xu Ziquan's trembling heart, were all because they sensed this aura.
It was just that it was too weak, and even they couldn't tell why.
"It's fate that we met by chance. The two of you have to drink more!"
At this moment, Wei Shanchu smiled and raised his cup.
"I dare not to obey?"
Wu Ming and Xu Ziquan looked at each other and smiled, then drank the wine in one gulp.
…
As the carriage went deeper, the surrounding scenery also changed.
The greyish-black fog gradually turned pure gray, and even the land was no longer a desert. Instead, there was an additional layer of grass and shrubs, and there was some vitality.
Moreover, the further they went, the brighter the City God's radiance became.
"It's here …"
Wei Shanchu chose a place and ordered the carriage to stop. With another wave of his sleeve, hundreds of white light spots floated down, turning into white figures that kowtowed on the ground. "Thank you for saving our lives, Your Eminence!"
"Forget it! Cultivate well, accumulate good karma points, and wait for the City God's Reincarnation Decree! "
Wei Shanchu returned to the carriage and explained to Wu Ming and Xu Ziquan, "These souls were believers of the City God when they were alive. After they died, they fell into the Underworld. We have the responsibility of receiving them … Unfortunately, there are too many of them now, so we can only settle them down one by one and wait for the City God to use his supernatural powers …"
As they sighed, the carriage continued to move forward.
Wei Shanchu looked troubled. After drinking three cups of wine, he suddenly slammed his cup on the ground. "The Lord Kurosan set up the Dharma Realm to collect living souls and torture them. How hateful!"
This sudden sound made Wu Ming and Xu Ziquan's hearts skip a beat.
Xu Ziquan immediately asked, "The Lord Kurosan does this, does no one care?"
"Who cares? Who cares? "
Wei Shanchu smiled bitterly. "Ever since the Heavenly Axiom changed, both the Yin and Yang worlds have been affected. At this time, the two of you who are truly successful in your cultivation are already rare. Here, only my master can slightly resist the Lord Kurosan and protect his followers. As for the others, they are really powerless …"
"I have the heart to kill the enemy, but I am powerless to reverse the situation. What can I do …"
After sighing for a while, he knew that he had said something wrong. He raised his cup again and said, "I made mistakes after drinking and have been reprimanded many times. But I still can't change my bad habit. I shall drink three more cups as punishment!"
"The Heavenly Axiom changed?"
The wine entered his mouth and turned into wisps of spiritual energy. However, Wu Ming was not paying attention. He caught a key word that the god said, "Is this the deeper truth of the World of Gods and Ghosts?"
…
Even though Wu Ming and Xu Ziquan were mentally prepared, they could not help but gasp when they saw the Black Platform City for the first time.
What appeared in front of them was an indescribably huge city!
The city walls were black and tens of feet tall. From afar, it looked like a mountain range, but it was extremely flat. On the side of the city walls, there was a river that was more than ten feet long. Black water surged in it, and the silhouette of a huge black snake could be faintly seen.
"This Black Platform City has a circumference of a few hundred miles and a population of a million. All of them are under the protection of my master, the City God!"
Wei Shanchu was at the side, and he introduced with pride, "In the moat, there is a Black Water Mystical Snake guarding it. There are also thirty-six big doors and seventy-two small doors, collectively known as the 108 Gates of Hell. All of them are patrolled by Yin soldiers and generals, and you need to pay to enter and exit …"
This magic money was naturally made from the paper money burned in the Yang world. It also contained a weak power of incense, and was the hard currency of the Yin world of the Underworld.
Of course, to Wu Ming and Xu Ziquan, as long as they spent a little of their magic power, the magic money would be like a mountain. Therefore, they did not care about it.
As they spoke, the carriage had already gone along the suspension bridge, and entered the city through the giant gate that looked like the mouth of an evil spirit.
Wu Ming noticed that on the surface of the river, facing the huge snake figure below, a few black horses were quivering with their tails between their legs. It was obvious that it was impossible for them to fly in the air like before.
Although this evil spirit city gate was one of the seventy-two small doors, it was built quite large, and could be said to be indomitable. After entering the city, the official road was more than enough for more than ten carriages to travel side by side.
Wu Ming looked to both sides, and saw that the houses and residences were continuous, and the land they occupied was extremely vast.
Compared to the Yang world, the land in the Underworld of the Underworld was not worth much at all. Ghosts and spirits could live and work in peace and contentment.
"The two of you are esteemed guests, please stay in my residence first. I will first go to the City God to hand over the order, and then I will apply for an audience for you!"
"Thank you!"
Wu Ming and Xu Ziquan were both newcomers, so they naturally agreed.
The carriage traveled for a while, and stopped in front of a large house that occupied an area of tens of acres. Another group of people came out to welcome them, and called them Master.
When Wu Ming got off the carriage, he felt that although this was a residence, it was decorated with gold lacquer and jade pillars, as well as pavilions and terraces. Everything was dazzling, comparable to a palace.
"I will go and report to the Master first. Take good care of the esteemed guests, do you understand?"
Wei Shan Chu did not enter the house, and directly gave his orders. When Wu Ming and Xu Ziquan got off the carriage, he did not stop and rushed to the center of the city.
"Two esteemed guests, please come in! We have already prepared a small banquet, please come with us! "
A person who looked like a butler came forward with a face full of smiles. White gas lingered around his body, crystal clear. Although there was not much flame, there was not much black gas either.
"Thank you!"
With a glance, Wu Ming knew that most of these servants were transformed from the Yang world paper dolls. Of course, other than this butler, there were also a few living souls, and they were probably people of the Yang family.
"I am tired from the journey, and do not need a banquet. Please bring me to the side room!"
Xu Ziquan gave Wu Ming a look, and said to the butler.
