This primordial world is not serious!

Chapter 914 - 461: Ksitigarbha: I Am an Undercover in the Nine Netherworld

Other Shore Great Universe, Kunlun Mountain.

Yuxu Peak towers above the sea of clouds, with ten thousand rays of rosy light and a thousand strands of auspicious qi.

Immortal Cranes flit gracefully, carrying Chi as they pass by; the Spiritual Spring flows gently, reflecting the heavenly light.

The Jade Towers and Jade Palaces appear and disappear among the misty purple qi, with golden steps and jade railings flowing with Dao rhythm.

From time to time, the clear sound of the Great Dao cleanses the mind, Immortal Flowers and Exotic Herbs exhale spiritual energy, as if Dao Fruits are manifesting, inspiring one with the thought of "hearing the Dao in the morning and dying in the evening."

"Child."

A call comes from Yuxu Palace.

"Disciple here!" The White Crane Child waiting outside the hall responds respectfully.

"Ring the Gathering Immortal Bell and summon your senior brothers and sisters."

"As you command!"

The White Crane Child waiting outside the hall responds respectfully.

Moments later, the melodious sound of the bell rings out.

Nine Immortals Mountain, Taoyuan Cave.

This place is the Dao Field of Guang Chengzi.

Today it's exceptionally lively here, as many Chan Jiao Immortals gather to watch Guang Chengzi refine the Sky Flipping Seal.

You see, Guang Chengzi sits cross-legged atop the Elixir Platform, with Dao rhythm flowing around him, his sleeves flying as he invokes the Nine Heavens Thunder Fire.

In front of him is a Great Cauldron, with divine light from within reaching the sky, illuminating the Cave Mansion with golden splendor. The immortals hold their breath in concentration, watching an ancient Big Seal rise and fall in the blazing fire, with the shadows of mountains and rivers flowing across its surface, as if it contains the power to overturn heaven and earth.

"A few senior brothers, you've come too?" At this moment, a sword light flies in from outside the mountain.

True Master Yu Ding sees Chi Jingzi, Yun Zhongzi, Huang Long, and other Expository Disciples gathered here, a happy expression appears on his face as he says, "I knew you would come to see the refinement of projections!"

Chi Jingzi laughs, "The Demon Ancestor has set the stage, our master and uncle have both come, how could we not come?"

The Inner Sect Disciples of Chan Sect, all Daluo Golden Immortals, descending upon this universe is simply effortless for them.

"Hey, Senior Brother Chi Jingzi, you're mistaken, that's not the Demon Ancestor, but the 'Daoist Ancestor'!" Taoyi True Master teases.

"The Demon Ancestor of this world was defeated by the Daoist Ancestor in a previous epoch and passed away in the Nine Netherworld, truly a miserable end."

Chi Jingzi smacks his forehead, laughing, "Right, right, I got it wrong."

"Quick, look, senior brother is about to succeed!" At this moment, Huang Long, who had been keenly observing Guang Chengzi's artifact refining, cheers.

Boom!!

A sudden noise is heard as Guang Chengzi points with two fingers.

The cauldron lid flies off, instantly shaking the earth as ten thousand rays of golden light break through the clouds.

The Sky Flipping Seal is finally completed.

The immortals come to offer congratulations.

"Senior brother, this Sky Flipping Seal is infused with the essence of untold numbers of 'Buzhou Mountain' from across All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds."

"Now that it's refined into a Spiritual Treasure, it certainly has the stature of a supreme artifact!"

Master Wen Shu smiles as he speaks.

On one side, Master Samantabhadra says, "More than that, if senior brother takes this Sky Flipping Seal to Before the Beginning, or uses the Qiankun Cauldron to refine it with Innate energy, it could make the origin of the Sky Flipping Seal even stronger!"

Many immortals nod in agreement: "Senior brother is close to severing the second corpse, it shouldn't be long before you can go to the Chaos Era again."

"Why is everyone so eager for me to go to the Innate era?"

Guang Chengzi jokes, "You wouldn't be hoping to see me get cleaved in the head by the Pangu God, would you?"

The junior brothers and sisters chuckle.

"No, no, senior brother, you've misunderstood us, we're obviously eager to see you outwit and outmaneuver the Chaos Demon Gods!"

Guang Chengzi shakes his head, "Don't talk about outwitting and outmaneuvering the Chaos Demon Gods."

"This time, we're supposed to outwit and outmaneuver two uncles, the fellows of Jie Sect, and the disciples of the Outer Sect."

"What's there to fear?"

Huang Long True Man stands tall and proud, "If nothing else, we from the Inner Sect defeating the Outer Sect is effortless!"

"Speaking of which, where did those disciples of the Outer Sect go?" Chi Jingzi asks curiously.

"If they're not demons, then where could they be? Surely in the Nine Netherworld!" Huang Long answers without hesitation.

"That doesn't seem to conflict with us!" Chi Jingzi muses thoughtfully.

At this moment, the sound of the bell from Yuxu Palace rings out.

Guang Chengzi laughs, "Our master beckons, let's set off quickly!"

"Alright!"

The Chan Jiao Immortals all hurry towards Yuxu Palace.

"Greetings to all senior brothers and sisters!" The White Crane Child bows with respect.

"Junior brother, you've worked hard."

Guang Chengzi, Chi Jingzi, and others carefully examine this White Crane Child.

If they were their true selves refined and descended with projections, then who is this White Crane Child?

There originally wasn't such a junior brother in their Yuxu Palace.

"You may enter."

Xuanqing's voice comes, interrupting the thoughts of the Chan Jiao Immortals.

The disciples enter the hall.

There they see Xuanqing seated high on the Cloud Platform, holding a Li Pearl in his left hand, draped in seventy-two colors, with a clear and bright round light suspended in the mind, manifesting the phenomena of Chaos' birth and destruction.

"We pay respects to Master!"

"Arise."

Xuanqing smiles, "This time we must deal with Lingbao Tianzun, and you cannot hold back."

"Come, let me bestow some treasures upon you!"

The disciples hear this and rejoice.

~~~~~

The Nine Netherworld of the Other Shore Great Universe, is the ultimate sedimentation of all negative concepts. It is not the "Ghost City" paradise where lost souls rest, but the Pure Land of "demon" where chaos and destruction wills intertwine and boil over.

A vast, unmatched blood-red crescent moon, like a never-healing wound of the universe, hangs high above the shattered firmament, casting a marrow-piercing cold moonlight. Wherever the lunar brilliance reaches, it reveals twisted and grotesque demon land, with the earth covered in cobweb-like fissures. From the bottomless crevices, scarlet viscous magma continuously seeps, each pulse seeming like the painful and greedy heartbeat of this world.

In the void, substantive demon clouds form, churning endlessly. They sometimes transform into formless giant beasts, at other times coalesce into despairing, wailing faces, silently recounting the eternal decline and resentment over the ages. Piles of desolate white bones form unending mountain ranges, with remnants of primordial God Demons, their ribs like pillars supporting the heavens; there are also the remains of billions of creatures, with bones as countless as the sands of the Ganges. Harrowing and crazed wails of demonic creatures echo from the depths of these bone mountains, as if gnawing away at the time long gone.
