Ling Xiao and Houtu arrived at the sea of blood, and saw countless souls floating on the sea of blood, the blood and water were turbulent, and from time to time a blood wave was set off, and all the souls that were hit by the blood and water turned into the Shura clan.

Seeing this scene, the compassion in Ling Xiao's eyes became more and more serious, and suddenly, Hou Tu only felt a flash of lightning in his mind, as if he suddenly understood something, and took a few steps back, his expression was sad, and his face was full of panic.

Ling Xiao was shocked in his heart, who is Houtu? The most powerful of the ancestral witches, claiming to stand on the ground, the saint also has the strength to fight. What could have left him so overwhelmed?

Ling Xiao was just about to ask, but was interrupted by Houtu, who looked sad and said with a sad face: "Lingxiao Daoyou, I'm afraid that the fate of you and me will end here." “

Ling Xiao was shocked: "Niangniang, what does this mean?" but a sentence flashed in his heart [Houtu incarnates reincarnation], and when he saw Houtu's expression, he became more and more sure in his heart.

Houtu smiled sadly, his smile was sad, but there was a strange beauty: "I am here today, and I finally understand my mission." Although Ling Xiao had expected it, he was still taken aback in his heart, and hurriedly asked: "I don't know what Niangniang's mission is, Poor Dao is willing to help Niangniang." Although the two have known each other for a short time, Ling Xiao has already regarded Houtu as a sister-like existence, and he really can't bear to see Houtu fall.

Hearing this, Houtu shook his head, and a crystal tear fell from his eyes. "Dao is friendly, and I understand it, but no one can help me in this matter." ”

Ling Xiao became more and more sure of his guess in his heart, and hurriedly asked: "What is Niangniang's mission, and say it, and the two of us will sum it up together." ”

Houtu shook his head: "Since the opening of heaven and earth, Pangu Father God has incarnated all things, but there is one less place to contain the souls of all beings. As a result, after the death of the living soul, the soul has no attachment and can only wander in the wilderness. And my mission is to use my ancestral witch true body to turn into a place of soul refuge, and to complete the work of the ancient father God to open up the heavens and the earth. ”

After listening to Houtu's words, Ling Xiao's conjecture in his heart was finally confirmed, and his heart was extremely contradictory.

On the one hand, Ling Xiao hopes that the Houtu can be reincarnated, after all, above the flood and famine, the soul of the human race is the majority, the past life is human, and the current life is respected by the human race, Ling Xiao regards the human race as the biological child, the child suffers, the pain in the heart, how can words express?

On the other hand, he didn't want Houtu to be reincarnated, after all, in that case, Houtu would be completely destroyed, and Ling Xiao didn't want Honghuang to lose a truly compassionate person.

With the last trace of luck, Ling Xiao asked, "Niangniang, is there really no other way?"

Hou Tu shook his head, and the expression on his face turned firm: "This is the will of heaven, and it cannot be changed by man, not to mention, with my own body, to build a shelter for the living beings in the world, I will die without regrets." ”

Ling Xiao felt great compassion in his heart, but Houtu smiled slightly, "Daoyou is also a person with great wisdom, and I also ask Daoyou to help Houtu plan how to build this shelter." ”

Ling Xiao restrained his emotions and asked, "I don't know what Niangniang thinks, let's listen to it, and I can refer to it for you." ”

Houtu lowered his head and thought for a while and said: "I want to build a place of reincarnation, reincarnation, coming and going, like a wheel whirling, and this heavenly path in the circle, everything is pervasive, what do you think?"

Ling Xiao nodded, "It's just that how these souls should be reincarnated, they can't be part good or bad, let's reincarnate indiscriminately."

Houtu listened to Ling Xiao's words, frowned, although it was a frown, but it had a different style, Houtu raised his head and said: "Since Daoyou said so, I think there is a solution, and I also ask Daoyou to teach me." “

Ling Xiao saw Houtu asking him for his opinion, and he didn't hide it, combined with the memories of his previous life, he said to Houtu: "Niangniang might as well divide reincarnation into six levels, collectively known as the six paths, divided into the heavenly path, the asura path, the humanitarian, the animal path, the hungry ghost path, and the hell path."

Those who have made great merit in their lifetime can enter the path of heaven and be at ease, those who have killed too much will enter the path of asuras, those who have no fault and no merit will enter the path of humanity, those who have made too much merit will enter the path of hungry ghosts, those who have made great mistakes will enter the path of hungry ghosts, and those who are extremely vicious will enter the path of hell, so that they will be subjected to all kinds of torture and suffering, and they can only be reincarnated after washing away their sins. “

Houtu stroked his palms and laughed, and praised: "Daoyou is talented, Houtu is ashamed of himself." ”

Ling Xiao listened to Houtu's words, and felt ashamed in his heart, these are what he thinks, but he just copied them by himself.

Hou Tu asked again: "I don't know what kind of torture those who have committed the most heinous crimes should be subjected to, but I also have ideas for Taoist friends, so let's listen to them together." ”

Ling Xiao thought for a moment, and couldn't help but say, "Niangniang, why don't I build an eighteen-layer hell to deal with those sinful people, what does Niangniang think?"

Houtu nodded and smiled: "Daoyou Dazhi, but I don't know how to divide these eighteen layers of hell?"

The first layer is the hell of tongue pulling: all living people sow discord, slander and harm others, flick their tongues, argue skillfully, and lie and deceive others.
