Chapter 40: The Netherworld

In the battle of Qingshui City, Li Shouren destroyed the imperial court and annexed the territory of several southern counties in one fell swoop, becoming the most powerful overlord among the world's heroes.

Li Shouren saw that the domination of the world was imminent, and he could no longer hold back his ambition to be the emperor, so he changed his previous strategy of steady and steady progress, and decided to quickly conquer other forces and ascend to the Ninth Five-Year Plan as soon as possible.

Now Li Shouren's sphere of influence includes six or seven counties, and he has more than 200,000 soldiers with armor under his command, and his soldiers are strong and strong. In recent years, under Li Shouren's rule, the wind and rain have been smooth every year, with a bumper harvest of grain, and sufficient grain and grass materials. Therefore, after deliberation and decision-making, Li Shouren's staff group boldly decided to directly divide the troops into two routes and send troops together.

In addition to leaving behind the necessary garrisons, Li Shouren's army of 200,000 was divided into two routes, east and west, and attacked on both sides at the same time.

Li Shouren gathered the most resourceful strategists and brave generals in the whole world, and no prince in the world could compare with him, and no one could stop them in the place where the two armies passed.

With the dispatch of Li Shouren's army, the human war broke off again, and the scale of this war far exceeded the previous one, and the scope of the impact was even more extensive, almost all counties and counties were caught in the war, and countless soldiers were killed in the war.

All of a sudden, there were countless unjust souls who died tragically in the world, and the number increased dramatically by several percent in just a few months, Lin Fan could feel the strong resentment in the mortal world when he stayed on the Tianshan Mountain, and these unjust spirits were affecting the sentient beings in the Yang world all the time.

The reason why ghosts wander in the mortal world and humans and ghosts coexist is because there is no place of reincarnation in this world, that is, there is no legendary underworld.

The underworld involves the mystery of reincarnation, and unfortunately due to the incomplete laws of reincarnation in this small world, the underworld has never appeared.

After death, all mortal people have no soul to belong to, and can only stay in the mortal world, but fortunately, the soul of ordinary people is very fragile and cannot stay in the yang world for a long time.

Their souls will be constantly weakened under the suppression of the Yang World, and then slowly dissipate into the world over time, and finally return to the origin of heaven and earth.

These essence soul origin power will give birth to new souls and be born from the mother's body. But for those who die, death means that the soul is gone, there is no afterlife, no reincarnation.

This is the purification method of heaven and earth to cleanse the world of ghosts. But now there are many wars in the world, resulting in a large number of lonely souls and wild ghosts wandering in the world.

And the speed of automatic purification of this heaven and earth is limited, far from catching up with the speed at which these ghosts are generated, so there are a large number of ghosts accumulated between heaven and earth.

The unjust qi brought by these ghosts spread throughout the world, and it accumulated more and more, and now the concentration of this unjust qi has faintly exceeded the carrying capacity of the world, reaching an upper limit.

Just as if these unjust qi cannot be cleared in time, they will be like bone-eating insects, eroding everything in the mortal world. As time goes by, the spirit of injustice erupts, and I am afraid that it will destroy all living beings in this mortal world.

Originally, Lin Fan was still preparing to build the Netherworld after a while, because now Lin Fan did not master the law of reincarnation, so he could not establish a fully functioning underworld and could not let these ghosts reincarnate.

But now the ghosts in the world are not gone, and as the netherworld that carries the ghosts, judges good and evil, and regulates yin and yang, it has reached the point where it is indispensable.

Lin Fan's mind turned and slowly sank into the ground, the rules of this plane are different from the earth, so there is no magma mantle under the ground, just the thick power of the earth is deposited here. Lin Fan is going to open up the netherworld here and house the yin spirits so that they don't wander the world.

Lin Fan continued to extract the earth qi in the leylines, and the rolling earth qi surged out from the leylines, and then converged towards Lin Fan, and then an illusory world shadow slowly took shape in front of Lin Fan.

With the influx of earthy energy, the phantom gradually changed from the unreal to the clear, just like an oil painting that began to be colored.

Lin Fan's spirit froze, and he made a knife gesture with his hand, as if dragging a boulder, slowly and heavily slashing through the void.

Patches of gray ripples rose in the places where Lin Fan crossed, and wherever the ripples passed, everything turned into a cloud of gray ash.

"Click. ”

Just like a newborn baby cutting its umbilical cord, when the Netherworld Mansion, which was conceived from the side of the earth's power, is born, it will also cut off its connection with the earth, and then form a realm of its own.

After severing its connection with the earth, the Netherworld began to sink slowly. In the process of sinking, the Netherworld gradually broke away from the shackles of the earth, and finally stayed at the bottom of the plane where the power of filth gathered.

From a distance, the whole netherworld was pitch black and deep, like the night sky, its depth and width were incalculable, but it was empty, and there was no foothold.

Lin Fan's consciousness instantly entered the netherworld, covering the entire world, and then looked at this nascent world from the origin of the world.

Now Lin Fan has only opened up this world, and has not yet perfected its internal laws, so it is not a real world, it can only be regarded as a prototype.

With the movement of Lin Fan's mind, the netherworld thundered at this moment, the region was reversed and contracted, countless kinds of thunderstorms were in the sky, yin qi was permeated, and countless laws related to the concepts of yin, soul, ghost, underworld, ghost, and so on continued to flow towards this newly opened up netherworld, rushing endlessly, endlessly.

In a trance, everything in the netherworld is returning to its original point, but it has a new breath, and now this netherworld has been completely transformed by Lin Fan into a world of dark attributes, which is the opposite of the yang world, suitable for the survival of yin spirits, but rejects the creatures of the yang world.

At this moment, in the netherworld, the heavens and the earth are in chaos, and the whole world is still continuing to evolve naturally, constantly expanding the size of the world.

Moreover, there is no place of reincarnation in the current netherworld, it only provides a place for the Yin Soul to survive, but it is impossible to reincarnate.

Only after Lin Fan completes the law of reincarnation and establishes the six realms of reincarnation, will these yin souls be reincarnated according to the merits of good and evil.

But now it still seems very far away, this netherworld is empty, there is nothing, everything has to be built brick by brick by Lin Fan.

Although the Yin Spirits cannot be reincarnated as humans, at least in the Netherworld, they do not have to worry about their souls being scattered.

Moreover, the netherworld is full of dead energy, and even the aura attribute of entering the netherworld brings a bit of death breath, and the yin soul can absorb the dead qi in the netherworld to nourish its own soul, if there is a suitable ghost cultivation method, it is not a problem to step on the ghost immortal avenue.

However, Lin Fan will not pass on the method of ghost cultivation at present, so let them absorb the death qi according to their instincts! Lin Fan will wait until the reincarnation is established before starting to pass on the method of ghost cultivation from the upper level of the netherworld.

Otherwise, by the time Lin Fan established reincarnation, there would already be ghosts and evil ghosts in the netherworld, which would bring great resistance to the operation of the underworld, and Lin Fan didn't want to spend another effort to clean up the underworld at that time.

The Netherworld has been established, and what we need to do now is to lure the Yin Soul of the Yang World into the Netherworld, but now there are no ghosts in the Netherworld, such as black and white impermanence, and it is not realistic to send ghosts to hook souls.

What's more, there are so many lonely souls and wild ghosts in the Yang world, and the ghosts are sent to hook the souls one by one, I don't know how much time it takes, and if you want to alleviate the resentment in the Yang world, you have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Moon.

Before luring the yin souls of the yang world into the netherworld, Lin Fan had to make some preparations in the netherworld first, otherwise these yin spirits would flood in large numbers, and they would not die in the netherworld, and the netherworld would definitely be chaotic in the end.
