Chapter 318: Taodu Observations, People of the Casket



"Is this all it takes?"

Li Ye felt the glazed bead buried in the ground.

He was essentially still at the beginner level, and the Great Divine Technique of Resurrection, one of the Thirty-Six Celestial Techniques, was much more complex than the "Mountain Spirit" and "Lady Xiang" he had studied before.

The most challenging aspect of this Dharma Method was that it shattered his preconceived notions.

Or rather, it required his body to adapt to different forces of "Tao Laws."

"Many Taoist Techniques and Divine Techniques require a cultivator to serve as a Golden Bridge Jade Corridor, using spiritual power to influence the world and reflect different sceneries."

"This Divine Technique is no exception."

"Now that I can bury the treasure I formed along with my Golden Core in this place of accomplishment in the Underworld, it's because I'm looking for a simple method."

"In the future, I'll be able to come here at any time."

Li Ye suddenly began to mutter to himself.

In his words, he laid out his thoughts transparently.

With his voice, the glazed bead buried underground began to root and sprout under his consciousness, soon blossoming into a crystal-clear lotus flower.

Or it transformed into a crystal-clear lotus blossom.

When this lotus flower bloomed rapidly, a tiny door appeared on its lotus pod, clearly revealing the scenery of the Yang World on the other side.

After he completed this.

Suddenly.

A voice came from a distance:

"You really took the trouble to explain it to me."

"Actually, there's no need for that, as long as a cultivator practicing the Great Divine Technique of Resurrection comes here, I will always grant entry."

"Come on in!"

When the voice sounded.

Before Li Ye, an enormous, ancient-looking, and even somewhat shabby door carved out of peach wood suddenly appeared.

It creaked open.

The world within, known to only very few, lay open before Li Ye.

A mountain.

Or perhaps an indescribably vast city.

—This city was established atop a towering mountain, built along the contours of the peaks, stretching from the mountain's base to its summit, filled with countless structures.

The buildings included simple and primitive stone houses, exquisitely carved and painted small buildings, and even magnificent palaces and ethereal landscapes of the Immortal Family.

Moreover, the transition wasn't from simple to complex, or from rustic to lavish, but rather a blend of all these elements.

Perhaps beside a straightforward stone house was a magnificent palace, possibly even sharing a wall.

Additionally.

Taverns, tea houses, brothels, theaters... everything imaginable was present, with people coming and going under bright lights, resembling a colossal dragon constructed of light amidst the gray mist.

This extraordinarily contradictory yet harmonious atmosphere made Li Ye feel extremely strange, even a bit dazed.

But he knew this was the "Underworld."

When "life" concludes, the souls of all beings come here. Those who do not reincarnate are here to start their second phase of life.

"So, this is Taodu, is it?"

Li Ye couldn't help but sigh.

The Seven Great Sects had long established their own "Underworlds," each unique, like the one before Li Ye, which belonged to the Eastern Domain occupied by the Four Seasons Sect.

Also known as Taodu.

Or the true "Taodu" of the Underworld.

The "Taodu Mountain," where Dusuo Mountain is located, was actually a portion of Taodu in the Upper Realm, cut down and brought here by the Four Seasons Sect's ancestor.

The world only knows that Taodu Mountain contains Dusuo Mountain and the place for countless souls to reincarnate.

But they are unaware of this, beyond Dusuo Mountain, guarded by the deities Shen Tu and Yu Lei, completely isolated from the Yang World.

As in the legends where someone accidentally ventured into the Underworld, that place was only where souls undergo reincarnation and still belonged to the order of the Yang World.

One could say that 98% of people have never seen this place.

It is a truly secretive place, with the divide between life and death as a chasm.

Li Ye's arrival here was to complete a necessary task in mastering the Great Divine Technique of Resurrection—tear this place apart, take a piece, and bring a soul back to the Yang World, resurrecting it.

Just as Li Ye was grappling with what to do.

The people coming and going from afar were observing him with peculiar looks, whispering:

"Hey, hey, did you see over there?"

"Does he have a sun on him?"

"You fool, that's the glow of merit and Qi fortune! And the Immortal Light of a Celestial Being!"

—In the eyes of these Underworld residents, the light emanating from Li Ye was so dazzling it could shoot up to the sky, bright yet not blinding, irresistibly attracting them closer.

Li Ye: "..."

Why did he suddenly feel like he was being watched?

He opened his mouth, about to say something.

A woman in a brocade robe walked directly toward him, glanced over him, and slightly lifted the corners of her mouth:

"Are you Su Xing's disciple?"

"You might not have heard of my name, but you should know Chunhui, right? She's my senior sister and, like me, a Divinity Transformation Taoist."

"Just call me Elder Dong Cang."

Wait a minute.

What did you say with such a calm face?

—This self-proclaimed "Dong Cang" woman was extremely heroic in appearance, even somewhat sacred and inviolable, lacking any characteristics of winter, but shining like Divine Light illuminating everything, making it hard to look directly at her.

Obviously, no one would dare impersonate a Divinity Transformation Taoist in the Four Seasons Sect's territory, let alone in its "Underworld."

So she truly is a Divinity Transformation big shot!
