Chapter 279 A Great Wind Rises in the Underworld, Ksitigarbha Kills Meng Po!
"teacher!"
"This disciple was unaware of your arrival, Master, and has failed to greet you properly. I humbly beg your forgiveness!"
Upon seeing this, Shen Tu and Yu Lei immediately bowed down, for they were both disciples personally accepted by Xin Huan.
"You all rise at once!"
"Now that the Investiture of the Gods has ended and the Great Tribulation has ended, the world is at peace. This is the time for you all to diligently cultivate yourselves!"
"The two of you are stationed in Mount Dushuo, guarding the Gate of Hell in Fengdu. There is immense fortune to be gained here!"
"Don't miss this opportunity for immense merit!"
Shen Tu and Yu Lei were born gatekeepers, and their duty to guard the Ghost Gate of Fengdu was a divine mandate!
"This disciple will obey Master's instructions!"
Shen Tu and Yu Lei spoke at the same time.
"The Flying Tiger Soldiers and Crow Soldiers that I previously taught you, I wonder if you two have mastered them?"
Xin Huan looked at the two of them and couldn't help but ask.
"Reporting back to the teacher!"
"We two have successfully trained the Flying Tiger Soldiers and the Raven Soldiers, all thanks to the efforts of our two senior brothers!"
"If it weren't for Senior Brothers Zheng Lun and Chen Qi imparting all their knowledge to us, we probably wouldn't have been able to fully master it!"
The two waved their hands and said very modestly.
"These two individuals previously crafted these two Daoist soldiers; your assistance to them is a matter of fate!"
Xin Huan looked at Shen Tu and Yu Lei. In fact, these two had quite a connection with the two generals, Heng and Ha.
This is because all four of them are human goalkeepers!
In the future, when the divine path flourishes, these four people, through the power of incense offerings and vows, can also cultivate themselves into immortal golden immortals in Taoism.
"What brings you here, Master?"
After the two finished their formal greetings, they asked questions again.
"I have come here today for a great opportunity. I wish to travel to the Netherworld of Fengdu, and therefore plan to temporarily use the Ghost Gate of Dushuo Mountain!"
Xin Huan had achieved the status of a Primordial Golden Immortal, and could go anywhere in the Three Realms. He was just taking a look around.
"I see!"
"Is the teacher going to find the Great Emperor of the Northern Yin?"
Upon hearing this, the two understood the implication and quickly realized that the Emperor of Beiyin had something important to discuss with them.
In the mountains of Dushuo, before the gates of Fengdu.
"You two should stay here and guard the Gate of Hell in Fengdu well. This humble Taoist priest will now depart on his own!"
After bidding farewell to the two, Xin Huan entered the Ghost Gate of Fengdu and arrived in the underworld in an instant.
"The road to the underworld is like passing through the gates of hell!"
"The Gates of Hell are the gateway to the underworld, guarded by Shen Tu and Yu Lei; there's no way anything could go wrong!"
"The two of them guard the Gates of Hell; once they achieve great merit, they too can become gatekeepers of the Underworld!"
Xin Huan, moved by the sentiment, couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Now, the primordial world is divided into six realms, each a top-tier Great Thousand Realm, connected by the Well of Gods and Demons.
In the celestial realm, there are four Heavenly Kings guarding the gates, and all four of them are powerful Golden Immortals.
The underworld, the endless netherworld!
This realm is connected to the human world by the Yellow Springs Road, and also by four major ghost gates that connect to the Earthly Immortal Realm, allowing them to exchange things!
Shen Tu and Yu Lei are the gatekeepers of Fengdu Ghost Gate and the guardians of the underworld. In the future, they will guard the four gates of Fengdu Ghost Gate together with Zheng Lun and Chen Qi!
The duties of these four are similar to those of the Four Heavenly Kings.
However, the Four Heavenly Kings are the gatekeepers of the divine realm, and these four are the gatekeepers who guard the underworld!
Once you enter the Road to the Underworld, white mist rises all around!
The sky was a dark red, with a purple moon hanging high overhead. In no time, Xin Huan arrived at the Bridge of Helplessness.
"How strange!"
"Why is Meng Po nowhere to be seen on the Bridge of Helplessness?"
Seeing that there was no Meng Po guarding the Bridge of Helplessness, Xin Huan was immediately filled with doubt and began to calculate again!
"What a fine example of Western religion!"
"How dare that audacious woman with bright eyes try to kill Meng Po!"
I was shocked when I did the math: Meng Po on the Bridge of Helplessness had been killed.
The person who killed Meng Po was none other than Guangmu, a woman from the Western Paradise, who would later become the Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha!
In the endless underworld, there live many strange races, one of which is called the Nine Nether Python!
The Nine Nether Python clan has been bestowed the title of Meng Po (the Goddess of Forgetfulness) for generations!
They used the water from the River of Forgetfulness in the River of Oblivion to brew the flowers and leaves of the Manjusaka flower, and then used eight tears as a medicinal ingredient to make the Tea of Forgetfulness, which is the Meng Po soup!
Meng Po is like a ghost messenger, busy with her daily work. Because there are countless souls, Meng Po is not a single person!
The Underworld, in the Yellow Springs Scroll, records: In the 1231st kalpa of the Underworld calendar, a great wind arose on the road to the Yellow Springs, and a woman with bright eyes came from the west and forcibly killed Meng Po at the Bridge of Helplessness.
The woman with bright eyes was a true cultivator of the Western Sect. She was a direct disciple of the Buddha of Guidance. Because of her great compassion and filial piety, she was granted an exception to enter the sacred Western land of Babao Lingshan to cultivate!
This woman was the daughter of a Brahmin. Her mother was a great demon who never practiced good deeds and enjoyed using evil magic to harm people, thus committing heinous crimes.
Not long ago, Guangmu's mother, whose time was up, was summoned by the underworld to suffer in the netherworld.
Because Guangmu's mother did not cultivate good deeds during her lifetime, she will be cast into the eighteenth level of hell to suffer after her death.
Guangmu was a man of great compassion and filial piety. How could he bear to watch his mother suffer? That is why he followed her all the way here!
Furthermore, since all the souls of the dead who wish to enter Fengdu must drink a bowl of Meng Po soup to forcibly erase their memories of their previous lives!
In a fit of rage, she brutally killed Meng Po!
Therefore, when Xin Huan arrived in the underworld and crossed the Bridge of Helplessness, she witnessed this scene.
"I will not become a Buddha until hell is empty!"
"Legend has it that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is male in body but female in appearance, presumably because he had not yet attained enlightenment at this time!"
"Incredible! Incredible!"
"The Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva of today is short-tempered!"
According to legend, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was as fiery as fire, and before he attained enlightenment, he was also an impatient person.
Unexpectedly, in order to save her mother, she actually dared to venture into the underworld alone!
Moreover, he even killed Meng Po (a figure associated with the goddess Meng Po) to vent his anger. With such a fiery temper, he was practically a powder keg.
In the underworld, inside the Yama's Palace!
"You audacious woman with bright eyes, how dare you force your way into the underworld and kill Meng Po! What crime have you committed?"
In the Yama's Palace, several underworld generals, accompanied by countless ghost messengers, surrounded the group of radiant women.
"Gentlemen of the Underworld, please report!"
"I did this for a reason!"
"My mother was summoned by the underworld officials, and I followed them all the way here, only to find her being forced to drink the Meng Po soup!"
"In a fit of rage, I killed Meng Po!"
Guangmu then recounted the whole story, but unfortunately, it was too late to undo what had happened.
"You dare to kill Meng Po without authorization, and yet you dare to argue your way out of it!"
"Although Meng Po's position is lowly and her voice carries little weight, she is still a righteous deity of the underworld. How dare you kill her so easily!"
"With Meng Po dead, I no longer care about right or wrong. You have already violated the heavenly rules!"
"Why don't you surrender now!"
"Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite!"
For a bunch of shady guys, when someone comes right to their door and dunks on them, what's there to say?
Right and wrong are no longer important now; for the sake of the underworld's reputation, they must bring her to justice.
