Chapter 880: Huangquan is congested, and the cycle of reincarnation is overturned

The greeting lasted only a moment, and the two of them fell into silence. They stood side by side on the Yellow Springs Road, looking at the long line of living souls with complicated expressions.

"Before, many souls of innate creatures were given priority and went straight into reincarnation."

Zhang Xiaohu suddenly mentioned what happened not long ago, and it was obvious that he was talking specifically to Li Yuan.

Li Yuan's eyes moved slightly, as if asking a question silently.

Zhang Xiaohu paused and said, "His Majesty the Dark Emperor once fought against the Xiantian Emperor to protect the Heavenly Demon, and promised the other party that he was willing to surrender temporarily."

"During the catastrophe, many innate creatures perished. They entered the six reincarnations earlier than ordinary souls, and they all occupied the rare places in the upper three paths... This is one of the prices that the Hades Emperor paid to protect the Heavenly Demon."

It wasn't fair, and what he said was a bit nonsensical, but Li Yuan understood it, shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"I have never thought that the Hades was being lazy and deliberately plotting against me. These hundreds of millions of souls are incomplete and unable to enter the six realms of reincarnation. They are suffering. As the Source Master, I naturally have the responsibility to help them."

"Whether it's the Emperor of Heaven, the Earth Mother, or the Underworld Emperor, these three realm masters have been silently watching over me. I, Li Yuan, am not a fool, so how could I not notice it?"

It's just his turn to contribute a little to the living beings. Li Yuan will not be hypocritical and think that everyone is against him. On the contrary, he has received a lot of help from his predecessors along the way, which is how he can achieve his current achievements.

Whether he died in a bloody battle or returned to the underworld, it was his own choice and he never regretted it.

People cannot just ask others to help themselves without helping others themselves. Otherwise, even the most harmonious relationship will always have a thorn in it.

Sometimes...you have to choose to trust others before you can get their trust.

At least, Li Yuan believed that the Underworld Emperor would not really cheat him. Paving the way for these hundreds of millions of residual souls was not only the "responsibility" of the Underworld Emperor, but also his "obligation" to fulfill.

He cannot escape the fact that he is respected and admired by all living beings.

Moreover, Li Yuan did feel a little guilty for not being able to save these innocent lives and letting them die tragically in the ruthless slaughter of the Daozun Emperor.

He knew that he was not a perfect saint and could not save everyone in the world during the catastrophe, but seeing such tragic casualties, Li Yuan still couldn't help but ask himself whether he had done his best!

Some enemies once ridiculed Li Yuan, saying that tying his relatives and friends to moral justice and having no way out was an extremely foolish act, which would kill these close people with their own hands.

But from another perspective, it is precisely because Li Yuan never compromised, and because of his unswerving belief, that Anshan has won the support of all people, and the people of Anshan are full of motivation to fight against the catastrophe!

"It's great that you think so."

Zhang Xiaohu grinned slightly, and a simple smile flashed across his dark and honest face.

Some high-ranking officials in the underworld were afraid that Li Yuan would misunderstand the meaning of this trip, so they secretly asked him to give him advice, but those old ghosts obviously underestimated Li Yuan's character and vision.

"The Yellow Springs is crowded, the Naihe Bridge has collapsed, the Three Lives Stone has countless souls in its previous lives, and the Rebirth Pool is filled with the words of the dead..."

"But the underworld is in such a mess because some existences have taken up too much energy of the underworld officials..."

Li Yuan glanced at the muddy Yellow Springs Road, his eyes seemed to see through the entire underworld. Looking at all places in the underworld, he quickly found the reason.

Zhang Xiaohu sighed and his back trembled a little, as if he was exhausted, but he tried to hold on while Li Yuan was distracted and concealed it well.

"Over the ages, the Netherworld has accumulated a lot of reincarnated souls. These reincarnated souls are all very powerful and have extraordinary backgrounds. They are either related to the Heavenly Court or have old acquaintances with the upper echelons of the Netherworld..."

“Rules are easy to write, but human feelings are hard to explain. Some things and relationships cannot be cut off by cold iron rules.”

Xiaohu didn't explain too much, but how could Li Yuan not understand? He nodded silently.

After all, the Netherworld is also composed of a large number of underworld immortals. Immortals and gods will die, and underworld immortals may also perish.

The underworld has always had some difficulties dealing with those beings who were powerful enough to retain their memories during their lifetime, and who had great merits and blessings.

Some low- and middle-level ghost officials have been bribed by promises and treasures from some reincarnated beings who were extremely powerful and high-ranking in their lifetime, and have become completely obedient. So how could they really try their best to capture and suppress them?

The top brass don't care about the so-called oil and water, but the little fairies below are staring at these little bits of oil eagerly!

Especially since the celestial demons appeared in ancient times and brought the customs and habits of their hometown to this world and carried them forward, the hidden danger of the underworld has become more and more serious.

During the most serious period, not to mention the underworld ghost department, even the Blood Hell King, a disciple of the Underworld Emperor who 'appointed a king to rule together' in the Netherworld, was secretly taking advantage of others. When the Underworld Emperor found out, he was so angry that he suppressed him for tens of thousands of years.

The celestial demon disturbed the peace of the ancient times, and indeed instilled the "humanistic society" into the heavens and the underworld. The most outrageous thing is that this "leader" ruined himself because of his greed and wastefulness, making the whole world his enemy...

Let’s not talk about the previous matter.

Once the underworld confirms that it will do its best to suppress these reincarnated souls, the problem can indeed be solved quickly. However, it requires a person who is powerful, prestigious, not susceptible to bribery, has strong connections and is not afraid of any threats to stand up.

At the same time, one must have a firm attitude, have no so-called bribery scandals, and take the initiative to take the lead in joining the six realms of reincarnation, only then will one be able to win the support of the people.

As the newly promoted Source Master, I am not a high-ranking official in the underworld and am not involved in those conflicts of interest. I am also a remnant soul and have the same stance as those who have been reincarnated. Am I not the most suitable candidate?

Besides, if they really can't be persuaded, just beat them into submission.

Thinking about it this way, after so many twists and turns, I actually just wiped the butt for Brother Tianyao?

Li Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but when he saw the confused and painful looks of countless dead souls, he couldn't help but sigh.

"The underworld is difficult to cross, and the cycle of reincarnation is overturned. If we want to help these billions of residual souls reincarnate smoothly, I'm afraid we have to rely on the power of the Forgotten River."

"Now the Naihe Bridge has collapsed under the power of billions of residual souls, and the Wangxiang Terrace has been crushed alive. Someone is needed to lead the remaining residual souls to cross the Wangchuan River and actively draw infinite soul power from the soul river to replenish the souls of the residual souls. Otherwise, the nine Huangquan roads will always be congested, and the six reincarnations will not be able to accept such a large number of incomplete souls!"

"It's just... crossing the Forgotten River and drawing soul power from billions of residual souls to repair their bodies is equivalent to bearing countless causes and effects with one's own body. This process must be extremely painful."

Zhang Xiaohu looked out at the muddy river from afar, listening to the endless wails in the river, his expression solemn.

The Forgotten River is a magnificent river that runs across the underworld.

Those souls who are unwilling to forget their past will be thrown into the Forgotten River and suffer for a thousand years. If they can successfully walk out, they will be able to preserve their memories and go to the next life.

The more powerful the soul, the longer it will suffer in the Forgotten River. This is the iron rule of the underworld.

But throwing oneself into the River Oblivion is itself an extreme punishment, and those who can cross the River Oblivion are extremely rare throughout the ages.

Since ancient times, countless souls have leapt into the Wangchuan River with confidence and determination, but they have never walked out again. They have transformed into wisps of pure soul power and been submerged in the muddy river water.

What's more, even if one is extremely determined and lucky enough to crawl out of the Forgetful River, after thousands and millions of years, will everything that one has been holding on to still exist?

The matter has long been settled, and the old friends are probably turned into dust.

This is also one of the reasons why those who have been reincarnated stay in the underworld and refuse to enter the cycle of reincarnation.

Either you lose your memory, never see the past again, and never be the same person again in the next life.

Either throw yourself into the River of Oblivion, suffer the agony, and fight for that one in a billion chance of crossing.

But they knew that when they weighed the pros and cons, they had already lost the courage to fight against the Forgotten River.

"First, we need to deal with those reincarnated people who are causing trouble, so that the ghost officials in the underworld can have the energy to maintain the most basic order."

"Now all nine Yellow Springs Roads are full, and the Underworld is extremely short of manpower... Since they like to stay in the Underworld and refuse to leave, let them lend a hand!"

Li Yuan pondered for a long time and decided to take action to deal with those restless elements first.

He suddenly thought of the Unrighteous Immortal King.

The bones can be hard or soft, which is truly a "talent that can be used".
