Chapter 42: The Souls of the Dead Enter the Golden Wheel

Guangchengzi asked in surprise, "Merit from heaven? What's going on?" Then he counted with his fingers and finally understood what had happened.

These Zhu Xian sword energies are ultimately unstable factors between heaven and earth, and they have also absorbed the death energy of heaven and earth when they are on the verge of death, making it extremely easy to harm the prehistoric world. Naturally, he had done something beneficial to heaven and earth by removing a wisp of sword energy before.

Heaven is fair and merciless, and will naturally reward him.

This also made him marvel: "One Zhuxian sword energy can be exchanged for a golden light of merit. The Zhuxian sword energy here is not just tens of thousands, it is simply endless. No wonder those Buddhas and Bodhisattvas have several circles of golden wheels of merit behind their heads in the future. It turns out that they were exchanged for clearing these Zhuxian sword energy."

However, Guangchengzi would naturally not refuse such a good thing today. Wouldn't it be like not taking what heaven has given him, and then suffering the consequences? He immediately began to clear the sword energy.

And he had to at least clear a path for himself to move forward so that he could get the Western flag, not to mention the merit reward.

Although he had to use the Yuxu Treasure Box to slowly erase it, and the speed was slow, it was a sure win. After removing dozens of Zhuxian sword energies, the circle of golden wheel of merit behind him began to expand to a second circle.

This moved Guangchengzi deeply, and he cleaned up faster, even using the Yin-Yang Diagram to eliminate the Zhuxian sword energy.

"It seems that the merits of Yin Yang Patriarch for saving the West are not that great. After all, the rescue failed and the West was destroyed in the end. The bulk of it should be rewarded to the living gods. I only got a small part of it, but I also got the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, which should be a kind of compensation. Well, the merits can be calculated slowly, but there is only one Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, so I am not at a loss."

As Guangchengzi gradually cleared, one after another, streams of Xuanhuang merit energy descended from the sky. Because the speed was so fast, it even turned into a Xuanhuang energy column that connected to the sky, making his face shine with golden light, as sacred and noble as a golden statue.

Not only that, after seeing that the land in the west was extremely dry, Guangchengzi had an idea and took out the Nuwa Stone and drove it into the ground.

Sensing the extremely barren sand nearby, the Nuwa Stone shook gently, and endless breath of life surged out like waves of the ocean, immediately nourishing the dry earth and repairing the veins that were so broken that they were almost non-existent.

The original sand and gravel gradually turned into soil, and slopes began to appear on the endless yellow sand plain, which shows the moisturizing effect of the Nuwa Stone.

With the continuous nourishment of the Nuwa Stone, this dead land finally showed some vitality. A faint spiritual energy floated in the air, slowly and powerfully pushing away the approaching Zhu Xian sword energy, and condensing a small piece of living soil here.

However, the appearance of this land of vitality also alarmed some existences that had been hidden for who knows how many tens of thousands of years.

Oh oh oh!
Waves of ghostly howlings rang out, and countless ghosts broke through the air, covering the sky and the sun, wailing day and night. The air was filled with black air, and it was terrifying and ferocious. Even the sword energy of Zhu Xian, which could kill everything, could not do anything to these ghosts.

Guangcheng Ziqing paused a little in his steps to clear away the sword energy of Zhuxian, turned around to look at these weeping ghosts, and his mind moved, and he immediately knew their origins.

Among these ghosts are dragons, phoenixes and unicorns. They are the many ghosts left behind when the three Kaitian tribes learned that Luohou had lured them to fight each other and became furious. The tribe leaders personally led their troops to attack the west.

But the souls of these three tribes are only a small number. More souls are left by Western monks who have been practicing here since the beginning of the world. They are the ones who have suffered unexpected disasters.

Originally, they were barely surviving under the demonic power of Luohu, but in the end they had to be destroyed together with the West. What a sad thing!

Countless Western monks held a little resentment in their hearts, blending into the dying aura of the world, becoming immortal ghosts, howling here forever, mourning their tragic fate. After Guang Chengzi understood all this, he sighed and said, "If it really comes down to it, we do have some connection. Whatever, whatever, even if I spend a little merit to save you now, what does it matter?"

After saying this, Guang Chengzi sacrificed the second golden wheel of merit, formed the seal of the treasure bottle with his hands, and pointed it at the crying souls. His face was full of precious light, and then he whispered: "May all living beings be perfect, like the treasure bottle that is self-sufficient."

As soon as the words fell, a ray of light instantly shot out from the Aquarius Seal. It was as dazzling as the sun, brilliant and extremely glorious, instantly washing away all the resentment in the dead souls, leaving not a trace behind.

At first, these wronged souls were roaring wildly in the light, but then the ferocity on their faces began to gradually fade away, and turned into a sense of fulfillment and self-satisfaction. They smiled, put their hands together, and their bodies began to gradually become illusory, obviously they were going to reincarnation.

At this moment, reincarnation still exists in the ancient world, but this reincarnation is operated by the Heavenly Dao itself, and there is no such thing as reincarnation of the soul. It is often necessary to wait until the soul dies before the Heavenly Dao takes away that bit of true spirit and uses it for reincarnation.

Some great gods can also operate reincarnation, but they can only start a small reincarnation. It is impossible for them to control the reincarnation of the entire prehistoric world like the Heavenly Dao, or even to control one side. At most, they can use it to allow themselves or their disciples to die and start over.

However, the forms of these souls suddenly stopped becoming illusory to a certain degree, and they fell into the void and began to disappear continuously, but the law of heaven would not allow them to be taken away.

It is because these souls are contaminated with the deathly aura between heaven and earth, and their true spirits have long been close to extinction. It can be said that it is difficult for them to enter the gate of heaven, and it is difficult for them to stay in the human world. They can only stay where they are, waiting to extinct.

Guangchengzi sighed lightly, stretched out his hand and pointed, and the golden wheel of merit obtained from clearing the sword energy of Zhuxian slowly rose up. In this golden wheel of merit, a nine-colored stone was inlaid in the middle, which was the Nuwa Stone.

The golden wheel of merit turned slightly, and countless golden lights immediately shot towards these dead souls with the energy of life, transforming into countless lotus flowers out of thin air, quietly holding them up in the air.

With the help of the lotus, these ghosts' previously illusory bodies immediately stabilized. They bowed to Guangchengzi in gratitude, and then followed the lotus into the golden wheel of merit.

Guangchengzi continued to perform the Perfect Aquarius Seal, constantly purifying the souls of those who died unjustly. As the number of wronged souls increased, this golden wheel of merit began to take on some different colors.

If its original color was as bright and dazzling as gold, then the light it emits at this moment is golden with a slight light green, just like an ancient bronze artifact, simple and majestic, calm and self-respecting, as if carrying thousands of living beings, with a momentum rising from it.

This is the merit of Guangchengzi in assisting the heavenly way in the operation of reincarnation. It can also be called reincarnation merit, which is different from ordinary merit.

Guangchengzi reluctantly stopped only after he had completely liberated the last ghost nearby. The golden wheel of merit for reincarnation behind him had long since increased from one to six. Together with the original golden wheel of merit for saving the West, there were a total of seven golden wheels illuminating the universe, which shows how huge they were.

It’s not that Guangchengzi liberated all the unjustly dead souls in the entire West, but he liberated all the souls within this range. As for wanting to liberate more souls, he must go further.

After doing all this, Guangchengzi continued to walk inside, but he felt much more relaxed along the way.

With the help of these golden wheels of merit, he could put several Zhuxian sword energies into the Yuxu treasure box at once and destroy them, and his speed was also faster.

If he really wanted to rush in, he wouldn't have to worry so much, as the distance would be at least several times longer than it is now. However, he was reluctant to give up these merits, so he chose to proceed steadily, taking one step at a time.
