"The Five Elemental Fire Essence and the Five Elemental Essence are in the Eighteen Hells."
"The Wood Source of the Five Elements is on the mountainside of the Tiewei Mountain."
"The five elemental water source is in the depths of the River of Forgetfulness."
"The Earth Source of the Five Elements is in the Temple of Reincarnation. That's the place where the Yellow Springs Deities arrange for all living beings in hell to reincarnate!"
"It's at the foot of the Tiewei Mountain. It's shrouded by the seven-colored spear shadows.
The weapons were all talking at once.
After Gu Qing Shan used the 7-colored spear to kill billions of demons, the weapons have already recognized his ability.
Now, he had become the Ghost King, solving the problem of hell in one fell swoop.
The weapons were already convinced by him.
"Is the Reincarnation Temple far from the River of Forgetfulness?"
"Not far, it's by the Forgetfulness River."
Hearing that, Gu Qing Shan was a bit worried.
The Earth Source and the Wood Source were located at the foot of the Grand Tie Wei Mountain and halfway up the mountain respectively, which were shrouded by the seven-colored spear.
This matter was a little difficult to handle.
"What is it, do you need these things?" Shannu asked.
"Yes, let's collect the Five Elemental Origins first."
"The Five Elemental Origin can deal with the Rainbow Spear?"
"My method should work."
Shannu didn't ask anything else.
As long as he said he had a way, it was as if he had never failed before.
"The Fire and Metal elemental elemental essences are in hell, you can use the Devil King Warden Rod to find them" she told him.
"Also, I know where the Five Elemental Water Source is located in the River of Forgetfulness. Previously, I used the Five Elemental Water Source to heal myself. I'll go get it now."
Gu Qing Shan said: "Then we'll meet at the Blood River Hell later."
"Alright."
Shannu wielded the Six Paths Great Mountain sword and flew away.
Using the divine ability [Living's Wisdom], she mastered Gu Qing Shan's flying technique.
Gu Qing Shan held the Devil King Warden Rod tightly, closed her eyes and carefully sensed it.
Almost immediately, he discovered the Five Elemental Earth Source and the Five Elemental Fire Source in the Skinning Hell and the Frying Hell.
Gu Qing Shan waved the Devil King Warden Rod and disappeared.
He appeared somewhere in the Flaying Hell.
When the man-eating mouths on the ground saw him coming, they immediately shut up.
Gu Qing Shan squatted down and looked at the flickering yellow light in front of her.
This was the source of metal of the five elements.
In fact, this was also a very rare treasure.
However, in the Infernal Realm, there were no techniques to refine equipment, nor were there any tools to refine energy.
In the Yellow Springs, there were many naturally formed treasures or divine weapons condensed from laws.
Therefore, the Five Elemental Origins were not favored by the dead.
Gu Qing Shan put away the Metal Source of Five Elements.
Next, he went to Frying Hell.
The Five Elemental Fire Source was in the depths of the Frying Hell.
It was a pot of boiling, high-temperature oil that was hundreds of meters deep, specially used to fry the dead.
Gu Qing Shan directly summoned tens of thousands of powerful dead and had them dive down to the place he pointed out.
Soon, the dead found the Five Elemental Fire Source and brought it to him.
"Thank you. Sorry to trouble you."
Gu Qing Shan accepted the Five Elemental Fire Source and thanked him sincerely.
"We wouldn't dare. It is our honor to work for the Ghost King."
"Not at all. We will obey the Ghost King's orders."
"As the Ghost King commands."
The dead answered carefully.
Gu Qing Shan nodded and left.
Seeing the Grim Reaper leave in satisfaction, the dead of the Frying Hell heaved a sigh of relief.
When Gu Qing Shan returned to the Blood River Hell, Shannu was already waiting for him.
"Here"
Shannu threw a cluster of light that gave off a cold and moist air to Gu Qing Shan.
Just like that, three of the Five Elemental Origins had been collected.
Only the Earth and Wood Elemental Origins were left.
"Alright, now it's time to get to the tough part" Gu Qing Shan said.
"You mean the Shrine of Reincarnation?" Shannu asked.
"That's right, that place is at the foot of the Grand Tie Wei Mountain, the 7-colored spear can attack whenever it wants" Gu Qing Shan answered.
"I've already taken a look" the Forgetting River Soul Separating Hook answered, "the entire Grand Tie Wei Mountain only sees a single 7-colored spear shadow occasionally"
"If that's the case, then the 7-colored spear isn't attacking everywhere anymore!" the small white bird exclaimed.
"That's not the case, I think it's because there's nothing left to kill on the surface of Huang Quan that it quieted down" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The weapons went silent.
That's right, no one can guarantee what the 7-colored spear will do when someone tries to enter the Shrine of Reincarnation.
The 7-colored spear only needs to let out a single shadow …
Gu Qing Shan went silent for a bit, then suddenly called out: "Merit Accountant Machine, are you there?"
A circle of light appeared above his head, forming the number '0000'.
[Would you like to ask a question about Merit?] the Merit Accountant Machine asked.
"I want to know how much Merit I get from saving the entire world of Huang Quan"
The Merit Accountant Machine's voice became serious: [Saving the world of Huang Quan is the same as saving the entire Samsara, which is equivalent to saving 6 worlds and all living beings in them at once. The Merit you get is like the amount of sand in the Forgetting River, all of that sand will turn into the Forgetting River, as well as the total amount of sand in the Forgetting River]
[The Merit you get is so complicated, so vast, so immeasurable]
Gu Qing Shan asked again: "If living beings from hell participate in this, will they also get this Merit?"
[Depending on how much they contribute, you can also get Merit]
"Alright, I understand, thank you"
[Goodbye]
The Merit Accountant Machine's voice disappeared.
What also disappeared was the glowing '0000' on top of Gu Qing Shan's head.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit more.
He raised the Devil King Warden Rod and connected it to all the dead in the 18 layers of hell.
Immediately, the dead sensed the Devil King's attention.
They stopped what they were doing and stood still.
Gu Qing Shan cleared his throat and loudly spoke: "Villains, listen carefully"
The countless dead in the 18 layers of hell all listened attentively.
Gu Qing Shan began to speak to all of hell.
"Now, there's something I need you to do"
"This will help you get rid of all your suffering, immediately accumulate enough Merit to reincarnate into another world"
"Are you willing?"
The dead hesitated a bit, then slowly replied.
"We are willing!"
"We will listen to the Devil King"
"Sir Devil King, whatever you say"
The replies were few and far between, but the dead all expressed their attitude.
At the very least, they can't afford to piss off this vicious person in front of them.
That was what everyone was thinking.
Gu Qing Shan waved the Devil King Warden Rod, causing the countless dead to feel nervous.
"Very well" he said.
"I know you might be a bit doubtful about this, but as you all know, the Merit Accountant Machine, let's ask it to explain"
Gu Qing Shan then called out the Merit Accountant Machine.
"I have a question, how much Merit do the dead need to earn in order to escape from the sea of suffering and reincarnate into another world?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The Merit Accountant Machine answered: "The dead that enter hell will always have negative Merit, because they committed too much evil while they were alive"
"The more evil they commit, the more negative the number becomes"
"While suffering in hell, this negative number will slowly decrease until the negative number disappears and their Merit becomes zero or positive, only then can the dead in hell reincarnate"
The Merit Accountant Machine very seriously explained.
This was common knowledge in hell, something that almost every dead knows.
In fact, they would often look up at their Merit to see how much longer they need to escape from the torment of hell.
Gu Qing Shan then asked: "Then, I have something for everyone to do"
He then asked about how he saved the world of Huang Quan from before.
Sure enough, the Merit Accountant Machine gave the same answer as before.
As the dead listened, their eyes lit up one by one.
The Merit Accountant Machine has never lied before.
This is the truth.
If there was such a good thing, even without the Devil King's urging, the dead would be more than willing to do it.
The dead are always thinking about escaping hell, hoping that they won't have to endure the pain and torment of hell anymore.
"Very well, I've asked my questions, you can go into hiding now" Gu Qing Shan said.
The Merit Accountant Machine's voice disappeared.
Gu Qing Shan once again faced the entire hell and asked: "Saving the world of Huang Quan, I'm pretty sure I can accomplish this. If you're willing to participate, I guarantee that your Merit will be enough for you to escape hell — — at least you can check your Merit Accountant Machine to see if I'm telling the truth"
"Then, are you willing to listen to my orders and do this?"
This time, the billions of dead all shouted in frenzy.
"We are!"
"Of course we are!"
"Listen to the Devil King! Listen to the Devil King! "
"Who wouldn't want to escape the sea of suffering!"
"Of course we are, please give your orders, Devil King sir"
Gu Qing Shan waved the Devil King Warden Rod and signaled everyone to quiet down.
"I'll say this first, although you're all immortal, you'll die countless times for doing this"
"You'll be killed many times by a particularly powerful Divine Armament"
He then told them about the 7-colored spear.
Immediately, one of the dead hurriedly shouted, "It's just being killed on the spot, a one-time pain is the most satisfying, it's so much better than the endless torture in hell. Your Majesty, what should we do, please tell us quickly."
"That's right, we've already died once, we've been tortured to death, what's a second time"
"If I can accumulate enough Merit to reincarnate, I'm not afraid of dying a few hundred times"
"Please give us your orders"
"We'll listen to you, Devil King sir"
More and more agreed.
In the end, all the dead within the 18 layers of hell were shouting at the same time.
"Give us your orders!"
"Give us your orders!"
"Give us your orders!"
Gu Qing Shan sensed this through the Devil King Warden Rod and nodded: "That's enough, we can proceed to the next step"
He temporarily cut off contact with the dead.
Shannu watched the entire process and asked in confusion: "Gongzi, I don't understand"
"What don't you understand?" Gu Qing Shan was in a good mood and smiled as she asked.
"The Fiendkind didn't listen to you before, so you killed billions of Fiendkind's souls with a wave of your hand and wiped out the entire Chewing Hell"
"Hm"
"This time, if you use their lives as a threat, the dead of the 18 layers of hell would definitely listen to you, wouldn't you?"
"That's right"
"Then why did you go through so much trouble to explain this to them and even give them Merit?"
Gu Qing Shan replied: "The dead of the 18 layers of hell have the characteristic of immortality, so I'm responsible for giving ideas, while they're responsible for doing the work"
"Once they've accomplished my plan, they'll be able to reincarnate and I'll have achieved my goal, it's only fair"
Shannu understood what he meant and asked: "So you're making an equal trade with them?"
"That's right"
"You hold their life and death in your hands, you can order them"
"That's not an order, it's a threat"
"But you killed all the Fiendkind in the Chewing Hell before"
"Because they don't repent, they're still killing for fun, continuing to commit evil — — - I've always wanted to kill them all"
Gu Qing Shan continued: "After the other three hells stopped, I gave them a chance to repent"
"But just now you could have — — -"
"Those are two different things" Gu Qing Shan cut her off and patiently explained: "Eliminating evil is a principle, and so is making a fair trade, both of these principles are recognized by sword cultivators"
He stroked the Devil King Warden Rod and muttered: "Using their lives to threaten a group of weaklings, this might be seen as a matter of course by many, but a sword cultivator would never accept such a principle"
"It goes against my own conscience"
Hearing that, Shannu's gaze slowly moved towards Gu Qing Shan.
So that's … it …
She suddenly curtsied.
