Chapter 415 The Final Interpretation of Heaven's Law
Chapter 415 The Final Interpretation of Heaven's Law
"Stop using chicken feathers as a token of authority and putting accusations on this emperor. Do you think you, a bunch of little ghosts from the underworld, are qualified to do that?"
Wen Rui frowned and added tens of thousands of tons of force to his feet.
Fortunately, the powerful ghost king is a Yin spirit and does not need to breathe. Otherwise, his lungs would have been crushed and he would have suffocated to death.
But even so, it was extremely painful, and my chest was almost pressed against my back.
"Little brat, you seem to have not figured out your situation yet. Your immediate superior, King Yama, is one level lower in rank than this emperor. This emperor's words are law, and my authority to interpret the laws of nature is higher than your boss's!"
Wen Rui also shamelessly used chicken feathers as a token of authority, took out the Jade Emperor's handwritten order, and waved it in front of the powerful ghost king:
"I am the Emperor who was ordered by the Jade Emperor to come down to the mortal world to perform an errand. The specific errand is top secret and cannot be disclosed. You are not worthy of knowing it."
He looked righteous and said openly, "In order to complete the imperial mission, I need to recruit 10,000 living souls, but this emperor is kind-hearted and does not want to see the innocent people die, so I used the Heaven-Severing Divine Ability to temporarily borrow the living souls."
"This move only adds some complicated paperwork to the underworld, but it can save the lives of thousands of people. However, you in the underworld are obstructing it and enforcing the law violently! You have delayed the important matter of His Majesty the Jade Emperor. Can you afford it?"
"Ah... the gap between life and death is like a chasm in the sky, how can it be reversed at will? This is clearly stealing the secrets of heaven and reversing the heavenly power, how did it become an imperial order?"
The powerful ghost king was speechless. He was not a wise general. He was speechless. He tried to use his brain to argue, "The Book of Life and Death is a treasure of merit that suppresses the fate of the mortal world. Disrupting the records in the Book of Life and Death is not as simple as adding some paperwork. Once a mistake is made, the mortal world will surely be in chaos!"
"Come on, the Three Realms are just a bunch of makeshift gangs. They sound grand, but they're actually a mess! I'm very familiar with Hell. I often go there to chat with the ghosts and evil spirits and get information from them. After hundreds of years, I have a lot of evidence!"
Wen Rui said disdainfully, "Do you think I don't know? Do you dare to say that you haven't secretly changed the Book of Life and Death? As far as I know, many evil spirits with hidden wealth can bribe the judge to secretly change the records in the Book of Life and Death."
"If the King of Hell sees a ghost he likes, he can just raise his hand and send him to a good family in the next life!"
"You often write the wrong names and capture the wrong souls. In order to cover up your mistakes, you secretly send people who shouldn't have died back to the world of the living."
"What kind of judge from the underworld went to the mortal world to befriend mortals, and then used his power for personal gain to secretly help someone else's wife change her head?"
"What kind of ghost messenger accepts bribes from Taoist priests in the mortal world and becomes their thug to catch ghosts?"
"After receiving the benefits, he added a sum to change his life span from one year to ten years."
……
Wen Rui knew everything about the underworld, and he almost stripped off all its underwear.
Since ancient times, in countless legends and stories involving the underworld, there must be a number of unjust, false and wrong cases listed, showing that the underworld is as dark as the world of the living.
"Besides, even monkeys can change the Book of Life and Death, so why can't I, the Emperor, do the same?"
After saying something inexplicable, Wen Rui frowned and said, "Since you are also under the orders of the King of Hell, I will not bother with a small soldier like you. Otherwise, I will definitely arrest you and torture you in the Heavenly Prison for a hundred years!"
As he said that, he pinched the neck of the powerful ghost king, lifted him up, and said in a vicious manner: "Go back and tell your boss, if the ghost messenger dares to mess up again when Emperor Jie Tian is doing things, I will go to the Yama Palace to have a good talk with him, and check his account from beginning to end in that broken book, and check it several times to see if his ass is really so clean. How dare he stand on a pig and only know how to point fingers at others!" The powerful ghost king swallowed a mouthful of non-existent spit, wiped a handful of non-existent cold sweat, and nodded hurriedly: "The emperor is teaching you, I will definitely convey the emperor's oral instructions. Thank you for sparing me."
Even with his chest pierced by the fire spear, the powerful ghost king was not afraid.
He is just a ghost, so how could he be afraid of death? Even if his soul was broken up, it would reunite in the underworld soon.
But Wen Rui's few light words really frightened him.
The underworld is not so clean. If the Book of Life and Death is reconciled, even the King of Hell himself is not sure what will be found.
If this high-ranking official from Heaven in front of him were to get serious, I'm afraid that more than half of the ghost officials and ghost messengers in the underworld would be skinned alive, and many ghosts would probably have to stay in hell forever as prisoners.
The group of ghost officials were like stray dogs. They swarmed into the Netherworld passage at an even faster speed than they had rushed in. Wen Rui kicked the powerful ghost king into the passage and the passage was closed immediately.
After driving away the ghost messenger from the underworld, Wen Rui could hardly suppress the smile. This time he took advantage of the situation and used the name of the Jade Emperor to make a show of force. From now on, he no longer had to worry about the King of Hell disturbing his plan of renting souls.
Since everyone has a dirty trick, hurting each other will only lead to a lose-lose situation. It is better to live in peace and pretend nothing happened.
This is the way to be an official. No matter whether you are a celestial official or an earthly official, if you violate this, you will not be able to stay in the position for long.
King Yama was not an upright official with a strong character. Even the monkeys could scare him into submission. His worst counterattack would be to go and complain to the Jade Emperor.
If he dared to sue, Wen Rui would definitely bite back. After weighing the pros and cons, even an idiot would know what to do.
After this incident, Taoist priests on earth like to shout "Borrow the magic from the universe" when casting spells. In the future, when they hear the great god casting a spell, they will shout "Borrow the souls from the human world", and millions of souls will come to them at the call. The Book of Life and Death will flash like a ball in a dance hall, and the King of Hell, who is wise and self-protective, will pretend not to see it.
It solved the hidden dangers of the Soul Borrowing Skill once and for all, and greatly improved the degree of completion of this super soul skill.
The three immortals standing by were naturally unaware of all this intrigue and calculation. Nezha was still on the first floor, Long Ji and Taibai Jinxing could think of the second floor, but Wen Rui was already on the fourth or fifth floor.
Taking out a small banner, Wen Rui waved it at the living souls in the hall and shouted, "According to the contract, you all must obey my command for the next ten days and must not be lazy. If you violate it, you will never be reincarnated... You have seen it with your own eyes, even the King of Hell is not as powerful as me! If you offend me, I guarantee that you will suffer more than death! After ten days, I will send you back to the world of the living. It's only ten days, so don't cause any trouble!"
The scene of the beating of the ghost messenger and ghost general was still vivid in their minds. All the souls were trembling with fear and dared not even breathe - their physical bodies had long been dead, and their souls did not need to breathe either.
Many ghosts have read the agreement. It is clearly written in black and white, and this paragraph is indeed there.
Since they have signed and sealed, it means that one is willing to fight and the other is willing to be beaten. Wen Rui cannot be accused of fraud. How dare the souls disobey? They all obeyed and promised.
Waving a small flag, Wen Rui gave the order: "Starting from the right, a thousand people form a square formation, and possess the three immortals in turn. The rest of the souls will all belong to me!"
Following this order, the souls in the hall moved together, and groups of soul mist rose into the air with gusts of cold wind, strictly following Wen Rui's instructions and flying towards their respective targets.
