The Netherworld Ghost Realm is one of the three major realms within the Hongmeng Dao Realm, one of the ten innate eternal true realms of the Hongmeng Realm, and is located in the Hongmeng Dao Realm, which is equivalent to the lower level. And the Hongmeng Dao Realm is the cultivation site of Hongjun Dao Ancestor.

The Netherworld Ghost Realm is as vast as the Great Luo Heavenly Realm, and I don't know its depth, I don't know how far it is.

About ninety percent of the entire Netherworld is occupied by the Netherworld Blood Sea, and on top of this endless Netherworld Blood Sea, there are countless Netherworld Blood Continents and Blood Islands floating on it.

Above the Netherworld Blood Continent and Blood Island are the endless Netherworld Ghost Realm many life groups, among which the Netherworld Ghost Clan is the largest in number and occupies the largest area. The number and area of the Netherworld Ghost Clan account for about forty percent of the entire Netherworld Blood Sea. I will not describe it here, but I will gradually elaborate on it later.

This blood continent and blood island are all composed of netherworld blood soil, and the blood soil is condensed by netherworld blood water into granules, gathered together, more and more, more and more thick, and this is why there is an endless blood continent and blood island.

There are countless blood continents and blood islands in the Netherworld Blood Sea, all of which are large and small, and have different shapes, so I will not list them all here. However, on it, there is a Netherworld Bloodstone condensed by the essence of blood and soil, and there is also a Netherworld Ghost Stone that was condensed and formed by the endless innate Netherworld Yin Qi at the beginning of the Netherworld Ghost Realm.

These two kinds of stones are unique to the Netherworld Ghost Realm, and they are excellent materials for refining magic weapons, and they are on the same level as the Great Luo Heavenly Stone. The magic weapon made of blood stone refining does more damage to the physical body, and the magic weapon made of ghost stone refining does more damage to the original god. However, these two nether materials are relatively difficult to mine.

The remaining area of the entire Netherworld is about one-tenth of the area, which is located in the central polar region of the Netherworld Ghost Realm. This is the foundation of the orthodox underworld of the Honghuang Taoist Xuanmen in the Netherworld Ghost Realm, the place where the Netherworld Yin Mountain is located, this Netherworld Yin Mountain is also called Xudu Yin Mountain, and the whole is derived from a whole Netherworld Ghost Stone. In the same way, this Netherworld Yin Mountain, like Hongmeng Daluotian, is also the ultimate eternal treasure.

The whole Yin Mountain is in the shape of a round terraced field, extending up in a circle and layer by layer, and the Yin Mountain as a whole is divided into four major areas, and not to mention it first.

At the top of the Netherworld Mountain, which does not know its height, is a great plain that does not know its breadth, and there is a city in the central core of the great plain, called the city of Xudu. There is nothing else in this entire Great Plains except for the capital city, and it is really clean.

This capital city also does not know its breadth, does not know its height. The entire capital city is like the ancient gods, showing the form of eight trigrams towering to the sky, and there are eight tall gates in all directions around it.

If you look down from that height, you will find that there are six tall palaces in the core of the city, surrounding a huge black palace in the central core.

This black palace is the cultivation dojo of the Emperor of the Netherworld in the future: the Netherworld Palace. It can be said that this entire Xudu City is the dojo of the Emperor of the Northern Yin Xudu. This entire Netherworld Ghost Realm, including the Xuanmen Orthodox Underworld that was re-established that day, was under the jurisdiction of the Emperor of the Netherworld Northern Yindu.

This Emperor of the Netherworld is the supreme deity who presides over hell in the Netherworld (Netherworld) and the Netherworld.

At the core of each of the six surrounding palace groups, there was a tall palace with different colors, and the six palaces were all smaller than the Netherworld Palace in the central core.

These six palaces are the mansions of the future Luo Yu Six Heavenly Palace True Spirit Immortal Officials after the re-establishment of the underworld, and this Luo Yu Six Heavenly Palace True Spirit Immortal Officials are the officials of the ghosts and gods. It was established to assist Emperor Xudu in taking charge of the six reincarnations of the Netherworld, and it also had the responsibility of conveying reports to the Great Luo Heavenly Court on the operation of the six reincarnations of the Netherworld Ghost Realm.

The six heavenly palaces of Na Luo Yu are: the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Palace, the Heavenly Palace

The True Spirit Immortal Officials of the Six Heavenly Palaces are:

The Heavenly Palace is the true spirit of the Yin Heavenly Palace, the true spirit of the Heavenly Palace of the Taisha Forgiveness Sect, the true spirit of the Heavenly Palace of the Heavenly Palace, the true spirit of the Heavenly Palace of Tianzhao Sin, the true spirit of the Heavenly Palace, the true spirit of the Seven Non-Heavenly Palaces, and the true spirit of the Heavenly Palace.

In addition, the True Spirit Immortal Officer of the Six Heavenly Palaces of Luo Yu is also responsible for judging the blessings and misfortunes of life and death in the world. I won't go into detail here.

There are four major mountain areas in the whole Yin Mountain from top to bottom, and about one-third of the surrounding eight-sided area from the top of the peak down is divided into four layers, each layer is in the form of the round terraces, which is the first large Yin Mountain mountain area.

It is the mansion of the Emperor of the Netherworld and the Northern Yin Capital, where the high-level officials of the various prefectures deal with many duties of the prefectures, and it is also the cultivation ground of the high-level personnel of the prefectures.

The first largest mountain area of Yin Mountain, counting from top to bottom, the first layer is the palace of the ten halls of the king of Nadifu.

The ten halls of the underworld are:

The first hall is the king of Qinguang, the second hall is the king of Chujiang, the third hall is the king of Song, the fourth hall is the king of the officials, the fifth hall is the king of Yama, the sixth hall is the king of Bian Cheng, the seventh hall is the king of Taishan, the eighth hall of the city king, the ninth hall of the equal king, and the ten halls of the wheel king.

Among them, the five halls of the official king (wu) are also called the king of the five senses, the king of Wuguan, etc.

Because the Ten Halls of Hell in this underworld are at the end of the God Sealing Era, they are under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court, which is equivalent to a subsidiary force, but they have the greatest degree of autonomy and management.

The Ten Palaces of Yama are still in the Daluo Heavenly Prison, and they are waiting for Zhou Qing's decree to be canonized on the Daluo Square in the east.

At the end of the last era, the Ten Halls of Hades were able to survive because they listened to the orders of the Heavenly Court at that time, and they did not make the list, nor did they turn into ashes.

In the last era, because the time had not yet come, the emperor did not show up in the underworld, so Western Buddhism took advantage of the loophole and set up a so-called Jizo King Bodhisattva to interfere in various reincarnation affairs in the underworld. This also has a grudge with the Styx Master, of course, Buddhism and the Styx Master are more than that.

And now in this era, there will be no more miscellaneous incidents, just because this Emperor of the Northern Yin Capital has an extraordinary background, and in the future, he will be on an equal footing with Haotian and Yaochi.

To get back to the point, the mansion of the Ten Halls of Hades is as follows:

A hall of the Eastern Hades: Xuan Hades Palace, which is the residence of the gods of the vast king of Qin Dynasty.

The second hall of the southern underworld: Ximing Palace, which is the residence of the god of the king of Chujiang in Yin Dedingxiu.

The three halls of the Western Hades: Gathering Palace, which is the residence of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty in the Ming Dynasty.

The four halls of the northern underworld: Taihe Palace, the residence of the Xuande Five Spirits True Monarch and the King of God.

The five halls of the Underworld Mansion in the northeast: Jiaolun Palace, which is the residence of the most victorious Yao Ling True Monarch Yama King Shenju.

The six halls of the southeastern underworld: Ming Chen Palace, which is the residence of the god of the king of Bian Cheng, the king of Baosu Zhaocheng Zhenjun.

The seven halls of the underworld in the southwest: Shenhua Palace, which is the residence of the king of Mount Tai and the king of Taishan.

The eight halls of the Northwest Hades: Bizhen Palace, which is the residence of the Flying Demon Yanqing Zhenjun City King Shenju.

The nine halls of the underworld above: the Seven Non-Palaces, which are the residences of the Supreme True Monarch and the Equal King of the Gods.

The ten halls of the underworld: Suying Palace, which is the residence of the King of Wuhua Weiling Zhenjun.

The ten palaces and mansions of the ten halls of the king of Hades are evenly distributed in a circular shape in the area of the first layer of the round platform. In addition to his own duties, the Ten Palaces of the Underworld are also responsible for assisting the Emperor Xudu in managing the affairs of the underworld.

The second layer is the palace of the Five Ghost Emperors, and there are nine people in the Five Ghost Emperors, namely:

Oriental Ghost Emperor: Cai Yulei, Shen Tu, rule "Taozhi Mountain" and "Ghost Gate".

Western ghost emperors: Zhao Wenhe, Wang Zhenren, rule "Lingzun Mountain".

Northern Ghost Emperor: Zhang Heng, Yang Yun, rule "Luo Yu Mountain".

Southern Ghost Emperor: Du Ziren, governing "Luofu Mountain".

Central Ghost Emperor: Zhou Qi, Ji Kang, governing "Hugging Calf Mountain".

As mentioned above, except for the ghost gate, the other five mountains are all located in the human world, which is the entrance to the yang world set up by the underworld in the human world, and also the place where the case is handled, and the above five mountains are all under the jurisdiction of the ghost emperor of the five directions.

The human world mentioned here is one of the three great worlds mentioned by Honghuang Taoism in a broad sense, and it does not only refer to the human world.

The nine palaces and mansions of the five ghost emperors are evenly distributed in a circular shape in the area of the second layer of the round platform. In addition to his own duties, the Ghost Emperor of the Five Directions of the Difu is also responsible for assisting the Emperor Xudu in managing various affairs in the underworld.

The third layer is the Netherworld, the palace mansion of the eighteen ghost monarchs of the Xudu, the eighteen ghost monarchs of the Xudu are mainly in charge, and many operational matters of the eighteen layers of hell, each of the ghost monarchs is in charge of a layer of hell alone.

The eighteen ghost kings have to report to the Ten Hall Yama King at a certain time to report the operation of the hell on this level, and after the Ten Hall Yama King finishes up, he reports to the Emperor Xudu again, and the true spirit immortal official of the Six Heavenly Palaces of Na Luo Yu is also a copy of the Hui Tuo (ta, the fourth tone) seal, and then submitted it to the Great Luo Heavenly Court to report.

The eighteen ghost kings of the capital are:

Zuo Li Taishang Lingjun, Assistant Xuanzi Tianjun, Xudu Shangxiangjun, Xudu Taifu Jun, Xudu Dongming Gong, Xudu Nanming Gong, Xudu Ximing Gong, Xudu Beiming Gong, Xudu Ghost Official Beidou Jun, Xudu Sanguan Du Ban Lang, Xudu Water Lawsuit Si Ming Jun, Xudu Right Forbidden Si Jun, Xudu Lord Non-Messenger, Xudu Zhigalang, Xudu Great Forbidden Morning, Xudu Shidi Chen, Xudu Zhong Banchen, Xudu Xi Minglang.

The hells under the jurisdiction of the eighteen ghost lords are:

The first layer is the tongue pulling hell, the second layer is the scissors hell,

The third layer is the Iron Tree Hell, the fourth layer is the Mirror Hell,

The fifth floor is the steamer hell, the sixth floor is the bronze pillar hell,

The seventh layer is the Sword Mountain Hell, the eighth layer is the Iceberg Hell,

The seventeenth floor is the Stone Grinding Hell, and the eighteenth floor is the Knife and Saw Hell.

The mansions of these eighteen ghost monarchs are also evenly distributed in a circular shape in the area of the third layer of the round platform.

The above-mentioned names of the eighteen layers of hell are the most recognized by the common people, and they are also the words in the orthodox Netherworld Mansion of the Xuanmen of Honghuang Taoism.

Meaning of serial number annotation:

(1), 舂臼: 舂chong, the first tone, 臼jiu, the fourth tone.

(2), 磔: zhe, the second tone, the same as "zhe".
