Chapter 30: The Cause of Hell
As the legendary Lord of the Netherworld, it is enough to amaze us to hear the story of Emperor Xudu, and after listening carefully to this story, we can't help but feel that there is an indescribable weirdness revealed in this story.
Because the story is so weird.
According to the story told by Chunting, Emperor Xudu was originally a powerful person in Shenzhou, and after his death, when he wandered in Shenzhou as a soul, he knew the difference between humans and ghosts, and at the same time clearly knew that if the ghosts were allowed to stay in the land of Shenzhou for a long time, it would have a huge impact on this heaven and earth.
Therefore, he made up his mind, not afraid of hardships and dangers, and came to the Netherworld where there were no living souls at that time, and built the Netherworld from scratch, created the Netherworld, and promoted the Rakshasa clan at the same time, creating a space for ghosts to live in, as a means to stabilize the peace of Shenzhou.
And the legendary cannibalistic and brutal Rakshasa is actually not a demon, but an existence that helps Emperor Xudu to control the netherworld.
The real Rakshasa is the soul of the powerful people who have cultivated to the heavens in the Divine Prefecture, and the souls produced after they die into the netherworld, even if these people die, they still retain part of the cultivation of their previous lives, and they still have their own mental existence.
As a result, Emperor Xudu summoned these unique and powerful souls, and succeeded in getting them to help him and exercise discipline in the netherworld.
In other words, the so-called Ten Hall Yamas, Judges, Black and White Impermanence, Bull Heads and Horse Faces and the like in the legend are actually from the Rakshasa clan.
And this clan did not live up to the trust of the Emperor Xudu, and it was with the efforts of this clan that they gradually perfected this netherworld, perfected the so-called netherworld, and let people's souls have a real place to live after death.
However, just when the situation was very good, Emperor Xudu actually disappeared.
Could it be that Emperor Xudu was killed by a traitor, so people can't find their whereabouts?
When you think about it, this seems unlikely.
Although we don't know whether Emperor Xudu has made any progress in his cultivation in the process of establishing Yin Cao for thousands of years, from the information we can know so far, it is not difficult to find that no matter when and where, Emperor Xudu is the most first-class and powerful person.
This person is a world-famous man with great wisdom and perseverance in Shenzhou, and since he can cross the boundary sea and reach the netherworld, this is enough to prove that even if he dies, his cultivation is still so high that ordinary people can't imagine.
Since Emperor Xudu's cultivation is amazing, if there is really someone who can unknowingly plot against him, this person must have the same amazing cultivation, but in the stories we have heard so far, there seems to be no such character.
And if no one harmed Emperor Xudu, then did he hide his whereabouts by himself?
It's a bit confusing, but it's the most likely truth.
Emperor Xudu was originally an existence at the highest level in the two realms of Shenzhou and Netherworld, if he really made up his mind to hide his traces, then it seemed that few people in these two realms would be able to easily discover his whereabouts. Book 6 bar
So what is this for?
If this is really the truth of the matter, then something big must have happened back then, and it was this incident that made Emperor Xudu make this seemingly incredible decision.
What kind of reason can make Emperor Xudu give up the world he has worked so hard to build, and from then on stay incognito and not ask about the world?
Although I was confused, my intuition told me that we seemed to have been exposed to something that was enough to subvert cognition, and if we had figured out the truth of the past, perhaps we would have become the only witnesses to the establishment of the Netherworld for thousands of years.
Different from the previous pretense of profundity, I can see from Chunting's expression at this time that this time, he doesn't know the real reason for the matter, and after seeing our gaze at him, he slowly shook his head and continued to tell us the rest of the story.
"Although the Netherworld has become a world of its own and has become a world on a par with Shenzhou, the Rakshasa clan knows in their hearts that the reason why the Netherworld has its current grandeur is because of the previous efforts of Emperor Xudu, if he does not appear again from now on, then sooner or later this Netherworld will be turned upside down."
"Although it is extremely brutal in the legend, in fact, the Rakshasa clan are all great good people, otherwise the Emperor Xudu would not let him help him take charge of the netherworld, so after suppressing the initial change, the Ten Palaces Yama, who was born in the Rakshasa clan, immediately took corresponding action."
"On the one hand, they are suffering from the fact that they themselves do not have the peerless talent of Emperor Xudu, so they promoted the outstanding people in the Rakshasa clan and named them as judges, black and white impermanence, bull head and horse face, etc., in an attempt to make up for the defects caused by the loss of the whereabouts of Emperor Xudu with numerical superiority."
"On the other hand, they have never given up the search for the Emperor Xudu, and they have constantly sent people to search for the whereabouts of the Emperor Xudu in various parts of the Netherworld, because everyone knows in their hearts that he is the only one who can truly stabilize the situation."
"In this way, the Netherworld seems to have passed a hundred years without alarm, and in these hundred years, no one has been able to discover the whereabouts of the Emperor Xudu, and after a hundred years, the expected turmoil has occurred in the Netherworld."
Hearing this, our faces were calm, and we had expected it.
Perhaps those who had evil intentions, after discovering that Emperor Xudu had never been missing, thought that he had already disappeared, so they couldn't hold back their thoughts and caused this turmoil.
It's just that I don't know if this turmoil has had any impact on the Netherworld, and after this, has the Emperor Xudu ever reappeared and revealed his figure?
While we were falling into thought, Chunting still didn't stop telling himself, and with his words, we once again heard a legendary truth.
"Perhaps because the premeditated event is still short, this turmoil is just a thunder and rain, and the Ten Hall Yamas quickly quell it again, and from the captured mouth, the Ten Hall Yamas know that there are as many as eighteen people who started this turmoil."
"Because these people have exposed their disobedience, the Ten Palaces of Yama jointly decided to suppress the mastermind in the deepest part of the Netherworld, and at the same time named it the Eighteen Layers of Hell, and sent the clansmen to guard it strictly to prevent them from returning."
"At the same time, the Ten Palaces Yama suddenly discovered that in the process of searching for the whereabouts of the Emperor Xudu, they seemed to have fallen into some kind of misunderstanding."
