Chapter 586 The Laws of the Underworld, Luo Feng's Ambition
boom!
As the gates of the underworld opened.
The massive procession, already prepared and waiting in the underworld, passed through the gate in an orderly fashion and stepped into this newly born underworld land!
Leading the group were ten powerful figures, each with a different appearance, but all exuding an aura of seriousness and justice—the Ten Kings of Hell, selected by Qin Ming from the Underworld and appointed for this newly born Netherworld!
They are at least at the level of Void Gods.
Some were veteran powerhouses from the Jin world, while others broke through their limits through cultivation in the Netherworld. For example, the leader among them was a charming and alluring figure!
Zerg Queen!
Having followed Qin Ming for many years, the Zerg Queen's strength had already broken through to the level of a Void True God due to devouring a large number of souls, and she was extremely familiar with the operation of the Ten Palaces.
The Zerg Queen was among the first group of people to build the Zerg Soul Temple system.
Even though several eternal gods later resided in the Soul Clan, they could not shake her position in the Underworld.
This was her team, which reconstructed the Ten Kings of Hell system in the new primordial universe.
And the complete cycle of reincarnation and trial process.
As the first primordial universe officially conquered by the Underworld, Qin Ming would not allow any mistakes to occur.
Behind them are a large number of ordinary judges, ghost messengers, and underworld soldiers... all of whom have undergone rigorous selection and training to transform their souls.
In a short period of time, the once empty and desolate underworld was filled with an aura of solemn and majestic order.
The ten Kings of Hell each resided in one of the ten side halls designated by the Fengdu Palace.
Begin familiarizing yourself with the environment, debugging the connection with the Book of Life and Death projection, the Mirror of Retribution, and the Eighteen Hells, and assigning responsibilities to subordinates.
The entire process was extremely smooth, clearly indicating that it had been rehearsed multiple times.
As Qin Ming watched this scene, observing the slowly flowing Wangchuan clone, he clearly sensed the original Wangchuan in the underworld through the permanently fixed soul channel.
Countless memories of comprehending the fundamental principles of life were instantly transmitted to the body of the River of Oblivion.
The deduction begins with the River of Oblivion itself.
"It's a success!"
Qin Ming was thrilled. Through this attempt, he could basically confirm that the idea of the Underworld ruling over the three thousand primordial universes from a great distance was feasible!
The small-scale underworld has been perfectly integrated into the operating system of the original universe No. 001. Only the true operation of the Six Paths of Reincarnation system remains, which will collect all the dead souls into the underworld.
Before this, although he used the Six Paths of Reincarnation, he did not actually collect souls.
After all, it's just an empty shell of the underworld; it can't possibly conduct a systematic trial.
"It's time."
Qin Ming stood in the center of the underworld, with the six paths of reincarnation slowly rotating behind him.
Under the laws governing the primordial universe, his phantom appeared atop the starry sky within the primordial universe, his figure seemingly growing infinitely tall under the blessing of these laws.
Although it did not exude a sense of oppression, its very existence resonated with the universe.
Furthermore, as this force radiated outwards, it directly broke through the primordial universe and surged into the cosmic sea.
In the vast universe, in the sea, many true gods who were not of the Black Nightmare Clan saw this figure throughout the universe.
When the Netherworld was embedded in the core of the primordial universe and merged with the laws governing its operation.
Within the sphere of influence of the primordial universe, everything falls under the jurisdiction of the Six Paths of Reincarnation!
Even the Primordial Ancestor, Giant Axe, Luo Feng, and others, who were far away in the void, saw this phantom.
They witnessed what was happening inside the primordial universe.
"Did you succeed, senior brother?"
Luo Feng was deeply shocked.
That was a Chaos Ruler, and a Chaos Ruler who had possessed the original universe!
But in Qin Ming's hands, they had absolutely no power to resist.
In just over a month, the entire primordial universe was brought under the rule of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
"I thought a major battle was coming our way, but we conquered it so easily."
The giant axe sighed.
He wanted to fight the native powerhouses of this universe to see the strength of the world's experts, but he never expected that he wouldn't even have a chance to make a move.
"This is Qin Ming's first expansion of the Underworld, and the opponent is so powerful that he naturally dares not be careless and goes all out to wipe them out."
In other universes to come, you'll have plenty of opportunities to fight!
The Lord of Chaos City laughed.
"Moreover, this new primordial universe also has three forbidden zones! These three forbidden zones are completely different from those in our primordial universe, and there may be hidden opportunities among them."
"That's true! A new universe inherently contains endless eras!"
The True God of the Divine Witch laughed.
Amidst the laughter and conversation, Qin Ming's voice reached their ears.
"I am the ruler of the netherworld, in charge of the six realms of reincarnation."
"The Primordial Ancestor of Nightmare fed on all living beings, enslaving the primordial universe with unspeakable sins. Now, I have shattered his will and exterminated his entire race!"
The powerful sound spread throughout the primordial universe, reaching the ears of every intelligent life form.
Whether they were the hidden vassals of the Nightmare Clan, the numb billions of races, or the scattered powerful individuals hiding in corners, all the souls that heard this voice trembled violently.
The progenitor of the Nightmare... has he truly perished?
Has that nightmare that shrouded countless cycles of reincarnation come to an end?
They were shocked when the phantom of the Six Paths of Reincarnation appeared.
Upon seeing the illusory figure that seemed to cover the entire world speak, a mix of emotions—panic, elation, bewilderment, and disbelief—swirled in countless hearts.
"In this world, I establish the Six Paths of Reincarnation and set order for the Underworld! From this day forward, good and evil will be rewarded accordingly, and the law of cause and effect will ensure that retribution is infallible! I urge you all to act accordingly!"
As he spoke, the enormous phantom of the Six Paths of Reincarnation deep within the starry sky shone brightly, clearly illuminating the eyes of every living being.
At the same time, basic concepts such as the underworld, Fengdu, the Ten Kings of Hell, the River of Oblivion, the Mirror of Retribution, the Book of Life and Death, and the Eighteen Hells were also introduced into their consciousness along with the sound.
This allowed them to instantly grasp the core framework of this new order.
After death, the soul returns to the underworld. Based on the karma of good and evil deeds in life, it is judged by the Ten Courts and enters the six realms of reincarnation, where it may enjoy blessings, be punished, or be reborn.
"From this day forward, the Netherworld shall be established in this realm! The Ten Kings of Hell shall preside over the judgment of life and death!"
Good and evil will eventually be rewarded; it's just a matter of sooner or later.
May you, all living beings, uphold your true nature, perform many good deeds, and accumulate unseen merits.
Those who commit numerous evils will have their sins exposed before the Mirror of Retribution in the underworld.
Within the eighteen hells, punishments will befall you!
As he finished speaking, Qin Ming's figure slowly faded away.
Countless illusory souls soared into the sky, heading towards the Six Paths of Reincarnation in the heavens, with countless dead lives from the entire primordial universe continuously pouring into them.
Even in the cosmic sea, all the life forms that perished after the destruction of the small universes by the World Beasts appeared.
It appeared in the underworld.
Under Qin Ming's deliberate control, this scene was also witnessed by countless life forms in the primordial universe.
These dead souls, each with eyes filled with bewilderment.
When they enter the cycle of reincarnation, basic information about the underworld will automatically appear in their souls.
It's just that too much information is received at once, and one can't react in time.
"What Six Paths of Reincarnation! I am a core member of the Black Nightmare Clan! Even if I perish, a Lord of the Universe will resurrect me! By what right do you judge me?"
Among the crowd, a cosmic venerable being, somewhat similar to the progenitor of the Nightmare Clan, erupted in fury.
As a member of the Black Nightmare Clan, when had he ever received such treatment?
When the progenitor of the Black Nightmare Clan successfully possessed the primordial universe, the Black Nightmare Clan became the most noble existence in the primordial universe and the cosmic sea.
Who gave him the right to be judged by other forces?
However, he was met with a cold chain.
Snapped!
The Yin soldiers responsible for maintaining order lashed out with their soul-locking chains, causing the Dark Nightmare Clan's Universe Venerable to let out a shrill scream.
He didn't notice that there was a group of cosmic lords and true gods not far in front of him!
The universe lord and true god of the Black Nightmare Clan!
"Loud noise disrupts the cycle of reincarnation! This is a warning; if you repeat this offense, the consequences will be far more severe."
The ghostly soldier looked at it coldly, without the slightest mercy in its eyes.
What kind of elite of the Nightmare Clan?
Even if they are Void Gods or Eternal Gods, so what?
Once you enter this underworld, everything must be done according to its rules!
"I--"
Enraged, the Venerable of the Nightmare Clan wanted to unleash the power of the laws to retaliate.
But to his astonishment, he found that he could not mobilize any power at all, and his soul had been greatly weakened by that whip.
At this moment, he was no different from an ordinary person.
This instilled fear in him, preventing him from resisting any longer.
The souls at the very front of the line have begun to enter the first of the Ten Courts, passing before the Mirror of Retribution to reflect on their past lives.
The Mirror of Karma—this is the greatest opportunity Qin Ming has gained from the Wu Kingdom's heritage.
Even the fall of the King of Wu was due to this treasure, this causal treasure that transcended the level of a god-king, even if it was just a projection across the underworld.
It is still possible to investigate cause and effect.
As the cause and effect are revealed, their entire life is recorded in the Book of Life and Death, and they are completely brought under the control of the underworld.
From this day forward, it will be recorded in every lifetime.
This scene was undoubtedly witnessed by all living beings in the primordial universe and even the entire cosmic ocean.
The palaces are magnificent.
King Qin Guang, who sits atop the throne, is a majestic avatar of the Zerg Queen. His original alluring and ethereal aura has been replaced by absolute justice and solemnity.
Before the hall, the Mirror of Retribution hangs high, its light neither bright nor dark, illuminating the very essence of the soul.
At the very front of the line was none other than the soul of a true god of the Dark Nightmare Clan.
"Step forward."
The Zerg Queen's voice was calm and even, yet it resonated throughout the entire hall, brooking no disobedience.
Two menacing ghost messengers stepped forward and feigned a soul-locking chain to guide them.
The True God of the Nightmare Clan, Nightmare Slayer, snorted coldly. Although there was still a hint of confusion in his eyes, his years of tyranny had instilled in him an instinctive disdain.
In his view, the so-called Ten Kings of Hell were nothing but a joke.
Although his entire life was revealed under the illumination of the Netherworld Platform.
But so what?
The law of the jungle prevails over the weak; it is the rule of the universe!
The Black Nightmare Clan possesses a supreme bloodline, and it is their honor to devour billions of races!
"Nightmare Slayer, formerly the True God of the Nightmare Clan."
A voice rang out from the main hall.
"Before the Mirror of Retribution, good and evil will be revealed. In your life, you have slaughtered countless intelligent beings, of which seventy percent were tortured, devoured, and mutilated for pleasure."
Twenty percent is allocated to crafting treasures and cultivating techniques, while the remaining ten percent is allocated to other purposes.
The karma of killing one has created is entangled with cause and effect, its power as vast as the sea, and its vengeful spirits as numerous as the heavens.
"Judgment according to the 'Black Laws of Fengdu'..."
Nightmare suddenly looked up, his soul flames pulsating violently: "The Dark Laws of Fengdu? Who made these laws?"
Is he the ruler of the underworld?
What right does he have to set laws for the universe?
Our ancestor was the ruler of chaos, who seized the body of the primordial universe; our race is the law itself!
"qualifications?"
The Zerg Queen's voice was majestic.
"The order of the underworld is established in response to the great trend of the universe's birth, death, reincarnation, and the balance of cause and effect."
Under the supreme laws, the great Netherworld ruler was qualified to establish the Netherworld, regulate Yin and Yang, and punish evil.
The progenitor of the Nightmare, is also mentioned alongside the ruler of the underworld?
ridiculous."
The Zerg Queen spoke, but no longer argued with Nightmare Slayer.
"Your crimes are undeniable, your karma is clear. According to the law, you are sentenced—"
The voice suddenly turned shrill, like a thunderclap exploding in the hall.
"The soul is branded into the book of 'extreme evil'!"
They will be sent to the eighteen hells, and according to the sins committed, they will traverse the eighteen hells, including those with mountains of knives and seas of fire, and be punished for a million reincarnations before being reborn as animals!
"Take him to the Second Court for further investigation!"
With a majestic voice, the Nightmare Clan's "Nightmare Slayer" was taken away by two ghost messengers.
"No—! I refuse to accept this! Ancestor! How could this be…"
Nightmare Butcher finally felt a chill that penetrated deep into his soul.
Fragments of memories about the eighteen hells flooded his mind, a punishment of a million reincarnations. Even a true god would go completely mad!
However, his roars and his defiance were completely ignored.
He was forcibly taken away by two ghost messengers.
They were then taken to the next courtroom for further trial.
This scene was also projected by the Six Paths of Reincarnation's illusory image onto the primordial universe and the many surviving smaller universes around it.
Countless lives stared blankly at this scene.
They witnessed the once most powerful and invincible true god of the Black Nightmare Clan being judged, and the punishment was so severe that it was terrifying.
The true god of the Wuyan clan was cast into the eighteen hells, and his painful wails were witnessed by all living beings.
Until then.
Everyone suddenly realized, it's true!
Everything is true!
Before the Mirror of Retribution, sins have nowhere to hide.
Regardless of strength or background, everything that happened in this life will eventually be settled!
In the center of the underworld, Qin Ming quietly watched everything below.
This scene was also witnessed by Luo Feng, the Lord of Chaos City, Giant Axe, and others in the distance.
"Senior brother's path... has gone further than we imagined."
Luo Feng sighed inwardly.
He had read "The Black Laws of Fengdu" carefully, and it involved extremely complex matters, not as simple as just prohibiting killing.
For example, the battles and killings between two major ethnic groups.
This wouldn't be considered a major sin.
Just as wolves eat sheep and sheep eat grass, this is the natural order of things.
Even the battles and fights between martial artists after embarking on the path of cultivation are not really a big deal; the path of cultivation cannot be without battles.
Other factors can completely offset the cause and effect.
During the trials, many of those who had been granted titles of kings and marquises were reincarnated normally, returning to the human realm to begin a new life.
This also made the primordial universe and countless life forms in the cosmic ocean understand the reason behind it.
"It's time for us to go and gain experience! Hopefully, we can break through to the 90,000-fold gene level soon, otherwise we'll be far behind our senior brother."
