Chapter 176: Netherworld Ghost Body
Yang He coughed a few times, and the Five-Path God grew back from his body.

He almost fell to the ground. It was true that the new version of the Immaculate Body was extremely weak, but his spiritual awareness was more than ten times stronger than those at the same level.

One could even vaguely catch a glimpse of Wen Zhong’s army on their way back to the capital.

With a quick scan with his spiritual sense, he recognized many famous people from the Shang Dynasty.

The four generals of the Mo family are all over seven meters tall. Their strength has become more terrifying in more than ten years. Their huge bodies make them absolutely invincible on the battlefield.

On the left of Wen Zhong is a white ape, who should be Yuan Hong, the leader of the Seven Monsters of Meishan.

The reason why Yang He had an impression of him was because Yuan Hong also cultivated the Law of Heaven and Earth and knew the Eight-Nine Profound Arts, and was a low-end version of Yang Jian.

Deng Jiugong is on the right, followed by Baicai’s daughter Deng Chanyu.

Yep.

She is beautiful, but it is sad to think that she would become Tuxingsun’s wife later.

Yang He also sensed a burning sensation behind the million-strong army, which was most likely the Peacock King mentioned in the story of the Five-Colored Ghost.

“The next thirty-six-way expedition to Xiqi will be a hundred times more terrifying than in the original work. From Xiqi’s perspective, there is absolutely no chance of winning.”

Shen Gongbao hasn’t even started to exert his strength yet, while Daji and Hu Ximei have the cultivation level of immortals at their peak.

“By the way, if we join the Shang Dynasty, won’t we be able to defeat Xiqi?”

Yang He just thought that The Investiture of the Gods was not a story about a change of dynasties, but essentially a game of chess between Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu.

The chess game involves the Conferring of Gods in Heaven. Who dares to stop before there are 365 true gods?
“And unlike a normal chess game, the two players will actually play, and if you’re not careful you could end up flipping the chess table over.”

Yang He wants The Investiture of the Gods to end smoothly, so all he can do is help the weaker ones until they get through the difficulty of the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, and finally go to Heaven together, both the living and the dead, to take up their posts.

The five gods gradually regained consciousness and were so excited about appearing in front of people that they chattered non-stop.

“Master, let’s do it again. Old Bigan will definitely die!”

“That’s right. Look at how shocked they are. If it happens again, they will be even more shocked. Let’s show off to the five brothers!”

“Ha ha ha ha.”

“Shut up!”

Yang He beat up Wulu God and found out that he had a total lifespan of 134 years. Most of it had been consumed by Wulu God’s ascension to the state of concentration. After rebuilding his five internal organs, his lifespan was almost exhausted.

“It’s a pity that killing Noble Wang didn’t give me much life.”

“With another twenty to thirty years of life, Immaculate Buddha should be able to make further progress. However, this can be regarded as solving a hidden danger.”

Yang He smiled and closed his eyes, planning his next practice through the Immaculate Buddha.

There are six known realms: acquired (weak ghosts), innate (evil ghosts), sitting on the elixir (evil ghosts), transformation (evil ghosts), concentration (killing ghosts), and mixed origin (yin spirit ghosts).

[Plague Refiner: Pupil Ghost (Evil Ghost) Ghost Realm: Big Sun]

[Alien Corpse: Powerful Ghost (Evil Ghost) Ghost Realm: Three Corpses]

[Witchcraft: Descending ghost (evil ghost)]

Except for the rather special descending ghost, which cannot give birth to the ghost realm due to the laws of heaven and earth, the next three realms of pupil ghosts, powerful ghosts all focus on the ghost realm.

The Transformation Realm allows the ghost domain to take shape, and the Concentration Realm allows the ghost domain to change its surroundings, and even turn a hundred miles into a barren restricted area.

The ghost realm in Hunyuan Realm has turned into a small world.

It can be thousands of miles long or as small as a microscopic grain of rice. Maintaining the Hunyuan Realm ghost domain for a long time will not consume too much Yin energy.

Yang He’s horizons broadened and he realized that the Hunyuan realm was very close to becoming an immortal.

Simply put, the immortals’ dojo is the transformed ghost realm.

If you keep climbing, you will become an immortal.

There should be many ways to become an immortal. There are lower-level corpse immortals, and there must be higher-level immortals. The differences between them are huge.

“The Conferred God List is a shortcut. Becoming an immortal will definitely be subject to restrictions.”

“You must take one step at a time to become an immortal.”

Yang He’s mind moved, and the heart ghost helped him pick up a wisp of bright red cotton from the soil. The cotton kept squirming at his fingertips.

【Yue Lao’s Red Thread】

[The Yin objects refined by Yue Lao have now lost all their spirituality. After burning them, they are made into talisman water and taken by a man and a woman, which will allow them to communicate with each other. ]

[The red thread of Yue Lao can be exchanged for 2168.2 points of spiritual vision]

“It’s ridiculous just to think about it. Could it be that Taihuang Huang Zengtian is a medicinal garden? Are the so-called three immortals just raising the herbs there?”

Yang Heli was clear-headed. His body was already showing signs of dying. It was hard to imagine what the Immaculate Buddha would look like if his life span was consumed by a thousand years.
“I’m afraid it will turn into a target that is fixed in place and cannot move. At the same time, its spiritual awareness is strong and it can control a large number of magical powers and evil spirits…”

Whoosh! ! !
The light of escape fell from the sky.

Jiang Ziya had already sensed the presence of the Immaculate Buddha before, so he did not rashly approach the lakeside. Now, seeing the tragic scene around him, a deep pit had collapsed for thousands of meters.

He found the corpse boy’s body and placed it carefully aside.

Jiang Ziya was secretly shocked, wondering who had killed the corpse boy. Fortunately, his nephew’s body was almost immortal, and he would wake up after resting for a while.

“Jiang Ziya greets fellow Taoist.”

“Jiang Ziya, do you know why I came to the mortal world?”

“Is it for Da Shang?”

Yang He nodded and said, “Yes, the noble Wang who took action this time has already been possessed by the immortals from the upper realm. When they learn of the existence of the Conferred God List, they will definitely spare no effort to help the Great Shang.”

“Fairy?”

“Well, he was originally an outer disciple accepted by the goddess Nuwa. His body was taken away in the Lutai, and his soul was turned into ashes. This is a great disrespect to the saint.”

Jiang Ziya counted with his fingers and saw blood rising from the direction of Chaoge.

“Not good. Bigan has decided to use ordinary people as sacrifices to help the immortals recover their abilities. Chaoge will be in turmoil again.” “Jiang Ziya, get ready.”

Yang He raised his eyes with deep eyes, “No matter who you assist in fighting against the Great Shang, you will be attacked by the Great Shang. If you cannot survive this disaster, everything will be in vain.”

“Thank you for the reminder, fellow Taoist Wujiu.”

Yang He was afraid that Xiqi would not be able to stop the thirty-six armies, which would lead to history being rewritten. After thinking for a long time, he said, “Jiang Ziya.”

“Although Li Jing of Chentang Pass is dead, all three of his sons have the ability to be great generals who can defeat ten thousand enemies alone.”

“Huang Feihu is already planning to defect. Only with his help can we train an army that is invincible in battle. In addition, Yin Jiao and Yin Hong can also be won over. It all depends on how you handle it.”

Yang He remembered that Yin Jiao and Yin Hong were prepared by the Chan sect for the Conferred Gods Battle, but they were killed by Shen Gongbao in the original work.

Jiang Ziya remembered them all and realized that he had a lot to do.

“Cough cough cough.”

Yang He breathed weakly, “Inside the tripod of the corpse Taoist are Queen Jiang and her son. When you, Jiang Ziya, arrive in Xiqi, I hope you can place them in any Nuwa temple.”

Jiang Ziya agreed.

As the two were talking, groups of evil spirits were attracted by the negative energy and gathered around the pit.

After a rough look, it was found that there were two to three thousand weak ghosts in the desolate wilderness, mixed with dozens of evil ghosts and two fierce ghosts.

Jiang Ziya sighed helplessly and took action to eliminate them one by one.

“The Shang Dynasty has committed atrocities, causing ghosts to run rampant in the world. Only after Xiqi defeats the Shang Dynasty can the world return to a pure land.”

Yang He heard Jiang Ziya’s murmurs, but did not respond.

Now everyone has a consensus.

The number of evil spirits has skyrocketed because of the Shang Dynasty. Once the Shang Dynasty is destroyed, they will return to their previous peaceful and prosperous life.

Yang He felt that it was impossible for many saints to be born again, and the world would only become more and more chaotic.

As soon as The Investiture of the Gods ended, the Three Pure Ones moved their temple directly to the Thirty-Three Heavens and no longer interfered in any affairs of the mortal world.

By the time of Journey to the West, some monsters even ate the mortals of an entire country, and there were countless monsters who occupied the mountains and became kings.

Only the main world divided by yin and yang can barely be called a pure land.

“Jiang Ziya, have a safe journey.”

Jiang Ziya saluted respectfully. The Immaculate Buddha represented the goddess Nuwa. As long as he was a mortal, his status could not be higher than that of Nuwa’s disciples.

[Your character “Pure Buddha” has died, and the role-playing story ends]

The Immaculate Buddha disappeared, and Jiang Ziya took the corpse of the Taoist boy to Xiqi.

………

Yang He summons the harvest in the main world.

[Whether you inherit the harvest of the Immaculate Buddha, you will get the following benefits]

[Wreckage of the Five-Way God]

【Yue Lao’s Red Thread】

[Whether you inherit the Ghost Prince’s harvest, you will get the following benefits]

[Ghost Body of the Netherworld]

[A seal of the Great Merchant Seal]

“We also have Queen Jiang’s seal, not bad.”

Yang He was smiling, but he was not in a hurry to check the ghost body of the underworld. Instead, he looked through the background information of the Immaculate Buddha and the Ghost Prince.

[Immaculate Buddha: According to legend, Nuwa used yellow mud to make a human figure of herself, leaving some debris in the world. Later generations refined some of the debris into a statue and placed it in a temple. After an unknown number of years, the statue’s spirit worshipped Nuwa and was named Yang He.]

[Ghost Prince: According to rumors, the Shang Dynasty became a ghost city overnight, with countless demons and monsters running rampant in the city. It is said that Queen Jiang gave birth to a large number of dead babies every seven days, and later gave birth to a living baby named Yang He after taking some of the debris left over from Nuwa’s creation of human beings.]

[The permanent characters “Immaculate Buddha” and “Demon Prince” are connected, and can be further integrated after the real body goes to the allusion world]

Yang He stared at the character background thoughtfully.

The heart-digging ghost has ended, but the blood-pit ghost has not yet begun. The Shang Dynasty is gathering thirty-six armies, and Jiang Ziya is heading to Xiqi to prepare for a desperate battle.

“Logically speaking, the timing of the allusion world is a good opportunity now.”

“A great opportunity for character fusion.”

Yang He doesn’t think that as his strength increases, the difficulty of character fusion will become lower and lower. If he can’t seize the opportunity, he will never be able to try character fusion again in Journey to the West.

He pondered the fusion of the characters as corresponding prompts appeared on the panel.

[You can return to the main world after three days of traveling to the anecdote world]

“Three days.”

Yang He narrowed his eyes. If he chose to back down from this opportunity, he wouldn’t have to think about any deep integration of the roles in the future.

You will only become more afraid of death, and sooner or later there will be flaws in your spiritual heart.

“Try and die.”

Yang He contacted Yu Zheng and the other man through telepathy, asking them to collect medicinal herbs that could help boost Yang fire, or to refine Yin objects that could make defensive Yin devices.

He will refine a few more Yin instruments and give them to Yu Zheng and the other person later.

Yang He quickly received a reply.

There are a large number of strange objects appearing in the valley area, and Yu Zheng is planning to try to purchase resources. It just so happens that Zi Shi Jiao also has a mission and needs to be stationed there.
