Eternal Tranquility

Messenger from the underworld?

Liu Qinghuan, who was hiding aside, was very curious and stepped forward to see clearly the paper in Mo Ji's hand.

"What words are written on this?" Mo Ji is now in the Mahayana realm and is well-informed, but he cannot recognize the weird and twisted ghost symbols on the card.

Those were indeed ghostly symbols, words from the underworld. Liu Qinghuan recognized the unique seal at the signature at a glance.

Mo Ji let out a light sigh, because as he looked, the words on the card began to change, and soon turned into the Zhengxian body he was familiar with.

"This was sent by a man wearing a black robe covering his head and face." The person who spoke to Mo Ji was a middle-aged monk with a tall nose and a broad face: "The other person claimed to be a ghost from the underworld, which means that at three o'clock in the day, something will happen. The envoy will visit Senluo Palace and let us in charge prepare to receive him."

"How to pick them up?" Mo Ji asked confused: "Where to pick them up, how many people are there, and what happened, and the other party didn't tell them?"

He turned the paper over and read it several times. What was written on it was similar to what the middle-aged monk said, but it did not specify the reason for his visit.

"That man also suddenly appeared in front of me. After handing me this slip, he disappeared without a trace." The middle-aged monk said: "But since he claimed to be some kind of ghost, his purpose of coming should be related to the cave below that leads to the underworld, right?"

Mo Ji thought for a moment and agreed: "The underworld is in charge of the order of the underworld and the cycle of life and death of mortals. It is mysterious and unpredictable. It is not connected to the outside world and no monks can get close to it.

But it is their responsibility to escape so many demons and ghosts from the underworld, and they cannot just let it go. Since we have sent an envoy, let’s give him a good reception! "

Hearing this, Liu Qinghuan shook his head secretly: Huishan accidentally opened the passage to the Infinite Hell back then. It was a big mistake made by human beings, and the underworld didn't hold it accountable. How did it become the underworld's responsibility?

He is a good student in every aspect, but his temperament of turning his back on himself and blaming others when things go wrong has not changed over the years.

If you hold such thoughts, Mo Ji will most likely be disappointed in the end.

Liu Qinghuan was looking forward to this very much and wanted to meet the underworld messenger. When he was in the underworld, he made many friends, and he wanted to see who would come.

It's a pity that the person who came here worked in the underworld tens of thousands of years ago, so he didn't know him. His surname was He, and he came to warn people to practice cultivation.

"After careful investigation, an abandoned person escaped from Infernal Hell." He Guizha read the official document in a serious manner: "He is cunning by nature, murderous by nature, and his strength..."

He glanced at everyone in the room, and his eyes suddenly stopped where Liu Qinghuan was.

Liu Qinghuan's heart moved, but she saw that the other party had turned his head and muttered: "Better than... most of the people here!"

Not counting Liu Qinghuan, there were five people in the room. The one with the lowest cultivation level was the fourth level of Mahayana. They all looked solemn when they heard this.

"I've brought my message, I'll take my leave..."

"Wait a minute!" Mo Ji shouted urgently and said in disbelief: "Are you leaving now? Shouldn't the underworld send people to take him back? Heaven's Abandoned One! That's actually a Heaven's Abandoned One!"

"What do you mean?" Some people were puzzled: "What's wrong with the Abandoned One? Does this title have some serious meaning?"

"You don't know about the Abandoned One? Then do you know about the Nine Chosen Ones?"

"The Nine Lords Chosen by Heaven! Are they the nine people who are rumored to appear together with the Mingshan Battlefield and are chosen by Heaven to maintain the order of the human world?"

"Yes, those nine people! If they make mistakes or abandon their responsibilities and are abandoned by the law of heaven, they are called abandoned by heaven. Such people are selected because they are originally very strong. After becoming abandoned by heaven, their strength will increase. …”

Everyone looked at the messenger from the underworld, and Mo Ji said: "Yes, an abandoned person who was supposed to be tortured in the underworld escaped to the human world. Isn't it supposed to be your underworld's dereliction of duty? How could he just run away!"

He Guicha rolled his triangular eyes and said impatiently: "The underworld only cares about life and death for mortals. You monks can handle your own affairs. Do you understand?"

Mo Ji was stunned and couldn't find the words to refute for a moment.

Indeed, the underworld is in charge of the cycle of life and death in the mortal world, except for monks. After the monks die, they return to heaven and earth, and their reincarnation does not go through the six paths of reincarnation, but directly enters reincarnation after the cleansing of heaven.

It is said that a long time ago, monks were actually under the control of the underworld, but as we all know, if a monk above the Nascent Soul stage died unexpectedly, his soul could travel around the world if he escaped in time, and the little ghosts in the underworld could do nothing.

Most ghosts are the best ones selected after the death of meritorious mortals, and they are strong enough to deal with mortals. However, by practicing in the underworld and accumulating merit, the ghost's strength can also be improved, and finally he can become a ghost immortal.

There is only one place that is different in the underworld, and that is the Infinite Hell, commonly known as the 18th level of hell. It not only imprisons the dead souls of mortals who committed great crimes, but also imprisons the dead souls of demons and monks who committed serious crimes.

Death is never the end. Just like mortals must be punished after making mistakes before they can re-enter reincarnation, monks naturally do the same, but it is not the ghosts who catch the monks to be punished, but the Tiansha Lord and the Heavenly Punisher.

The gods of heaven carry out the killings on behalf of the gods, the punishments are carried out by the gods, and the souls of the dead are led by the extraditers. In addition, Liu Qinghuan also knew that among the chosen people, there were also officers such as Si Xun, Ping'e, and Soul Guardian, but because he had never seen them, he didn't know who they were.

However, there are indeed nine chosen ones, hidden among thousands of monks, and their identities will not be exposed easily to avoid attracting covetous people.

Because becoming a chosen person can gain some of the abilities bestowed by heaven and gain more merit.

Take Liu Qinghuan for example. The path of reincarnation and cause and effect he cultivated cannot normally save the souls of the dead, but he gained this ability after becoming an extraditer in the Yin Yang Xutian and getting the ferry for the dead.

Merit is a good thing. It can affect a person's luck, help practice, bless magical weapons, and can even be used to resist natural disasters. Most importantly, merit can be robbed.

'Heaven abandoned...'

Liu Qinghuan thought about this word: Immortal Yi and Old Ghost Qu later became abandoned by heaven. The former was punished in the Yin and Yang Xutian, and the latter hid in the underworld and dared not move. He did not expect that there were abandoned by heaven in the endless hell.

On the other side, the group of monks were already quarreling, and someone stopped He Guicha: "We have tried many times, but we can't fix the hole, because every time we just seal it, it will be destroyed by demons. Isn't your underworld a little bit... Don’t care?”

He Guicha said with a cold face: "Who said we didn't care! Where do you think the hell is? How much effort did we have to imprison those extremely evil people and prevent them from escaping through the hole you made? !”

He looked around and said disdainfully: "Instead of pestering me, you should hurry up and find the traces of the abandoned ones, otherwise..."

He sneered, turned around and left, leaving behind a hall of monks looking at each other.

There was a long corridor outside, and the torches inserted into the stone wall were motionless in the wind. He Guizai suddenly stopped at the corner.

"You can indeed see me!" Liu Qinghuan slowly revealed his figure.
