"Song Changming, you harmed the people in the mortal world, causing a total of 123 deaths and 68 families to be destroyed. Your crime is extremely heinous. The criminal Song Changming was sentenced to Scissors Hell, Oil Pot Hell, Blade Mountain Hell, Iron Tree Hell…A total of 620 years of punishment. Once his sentence was over, he would enter the Beast Path and be reincarnated ten times. He would be judged based on his behavior.”
"Men, take him away."
The angry voice, which sounded like a Peking opera song, followed the sound of the judgment. Horrified screams spread hysterically.
Two reapers with green faces and fangs pressed down on a middle-aged man with greasy hair and pink face. Under the fear of the middle-aged man, they headed towards a dark entrance.
This was the Netherworld.
It was also commonly known as hell. However, compared to the hell in people's minds, the Underworld was obviously much bigger. Moreover, the highest official position in the Underworld was not the Ten Kings of Hell or Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, but the Underworld King!
The Nether King ruled over life and death, judging good and evil!
Separated from the myriad worlds and in charge of the Netherworld, even the gods and Buddhas had to be respectful when they came to the Netherworld. They did not even dare to speak too loudly. It was completely different from the weak Netherworld that was controlled by the Heavenly Court in the myths!
The two reapers escorted the deceased soul called Song Changming to the Scissors Hell of the 18th level of hell.
Scissors Hell, as its name suggested, used the Soul Scissors to continuously cut off a person's hands, feet, and fingers. The ten fingers were connected to the heart, and even the soul would feel endless pain. However, what was even more terrifying was that the Soul Scissors would not cause any harm to the soul.
On the contrary, after cutting off the soul finger, it would immediately regenerate. Each level of hell would have to endure a long punishment of 140 years. In these 140 years, very few people could endure until they did not go crazy.
But there were exceptions.
Just as Song Changming was screaming and being escorted to Scissors Hell in fear, he saw the souls of the dead who had committed many evil deeds before being brought here by the judges after their deaths.
The hysterical screams that seemed to come from the soul made Song Changming tremble all over. His eyes shrank into small dots, filled with despair.
Regret!
If he had known that people would really go to hell after death, then... Song Changming would not have done so many terrible things for his own selfish reasons.
But now, it was too late to say anything.
The big mistake had been made. He could only bear the inhumane punishment for 620 years, and then enter the reincarnation cycle to be a beast for ten generations!
Struggling and resisting were useless.
The Soul Locking Hook in the hands of the reapers firmly bound Song Changming's body. As he struggled, the two reapers who were escorting him let out sinister laughter. It was like the crying of a malicious ghost, causing Song Changming's soul to tense up and sink into endless despair.
Just as the executioner from Scissors Hell tied Song Changming to a pillar and was about to cut his hands, feet, and fingers with the Soul Scissors…
Beside Song Changming, a soul lazily opened its eyes.
"Yo, look at this outfit. He's from my hometown.”Wu Xuan sized up Song Changming and said with a playful smile.
However, Song Changming's smile was extremely fake after being in society for so many years.
"Brother Xuan, this Song Changming is indeed a soul from Earth. However, compared to you, this Song Changming is much more cowardly. I haven't even made a move yet, and he's probably going to pee his pants.”
"A dead person pees his pants?" Wu Xuan looked at the reapers who were about to execute Song Changming with a " you're kidding me " expression.
Song Changming was stunned!
"This person was also executed here?”He couldn't link the executioners in the eighteen levels of hell to Wu Xuan.
And that reapers.
What kind of attitude is that?
You're so rude to me, and you're calling this person Brother Xuan. Is the underworld a place for connections?
Song Changming was stunned, but the reapers were not.
He opened the Soul Scissors and placed it in front of Song Changming. With a crack, Song Changming let out a miserable scream as ten of his fingers were cut off by the reapers.
After cutting off Song Changming's finger, the reapers smiled at Wu Xuan.
Do you think he wants to do this?
If he could offend Wu Xuan, he would have shown his fangs and taught him a lesson. However, the key was that the deadline for the execution had long passed.
In fact, Wu Xuan didn't even need to enter the 18 levels of hell during the first judge's trial.
However, when he was drinking Granny Meng's soup, Wu Xuan wanted to escape from prison. In the end, he was caught by the reapers. Because of his extremely bad behavior, he was sentenced to 140 years of hell with scissors by the judges.
But unexpectedly, in the 140th year of Scissors Hell, he was in the same pain as the other souls, but he didn't make a sound. After that, he completely ignored the pain of his soul being split into two by the scissors.
Up until now, 360 years had passed, but Wu Xuan refused to reincarnate. Moreover…whenever he had the chance, he would think of a way to escape from prison while skipping Meng Po's soup. Until now…the judge in this area had already given the order that whoever could make Wu Xuan reincarnate would be promoted by three ranks. Therefore, none of the reapers dared to provoke Wu Xuan, the strongest holdout in the Underworld.
If they were to take things too hard and decide to stay in the eighteenth level of hell forever, refusing to reincarnate or take up another official position in the Netherworld, they might also be sent down to the eighteenth level to enjoy their 'bliss'!
In fact, in the minds of some reapers, Wu Xuan's willpower was almost as strong as the monkey that was being suppressed in the depths of Hades 'palace.
One had to know that the monkey had wreaked havoc in the myriad worlds, but what about Wu Xuan?
He was just an ordinary person. An ordinary person could ignore the punishment of the eighteen levels of hell with his willpower. Just thinking about it was impossible for any reapers.
These were just the thoughts that the reapers knew.
What the reapers didn't know was that Wu Xuan had used the past 360 years to get a general idea of the situation in this area. He would be able to successfully escape from prison in another 100 to 200 years at most. Without drinking the soup to erase his memories, he would be reborn into a new world from the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
As long as he could be reborn with his memories, Wu Xuan believed that one day, he would be able to return to Earth and find information about the souls he hated 360 years ago. Even if they had been reincarnated many times, he would not let them go.
Wu Xuan had absolute confidence in this.
After staying in the Underworld for 360 years, Wu Xuan knew that this world was not as simple as he had imagined. Other than Earth, there were countless worlds, large and small worlds, immortals, demons, devils, and Buddhas.
As long as he was given a chance, he would do anything to make himself strong enough to roam the Underworld.
Even now, his willpower was strong enough to absorb enough energy from the Underworld. These reapers were no match for him at all. He just couldn't be bothered to waste time on these reapers.
Right at this moment!
"Wu Xuan, Judge Cui has invited you." A thunderous voice sounded out of nowhere.
Following that.
From the entrance of Scissors Hell, a minotaur carrying a Soul Binding Chain with hellfire spewing out of his eyes walked up to Wu Xuan. The Soul Binding Chain coiled around Wu Xuan's body like a dragon or snake.
"Wu Xuan, follow me." The minotaur officer level was much weaker than these ghosts, so he did not smile at Wu Xuan, but his words were still polite.
"Alright." Wu Xuan smiled and nodded.
……
Judge Hall!
Judge Cui looked at Wu Xuan with a headache.
Just like Earth, the Underworld was a world with a strict system of rules. In fact, the rules of the Underworld were even stricter than those of Earth.
Therefore, Judge Cui did not dare to do anything to Wu Xuan.
Alright, if it was possible, he would also like to.
However, the most important thing was that the soul did not have a mouth. Therefore, unless the soul was willing, no one could force Wu Xuan to drink the soup.
The other dead souls were easy to deal with. They probably hadn't even used all kinds of punishments yet, and those dead souls obediently drank the soup.
However, do you expect a soul with such strong willpower to be afraid of all kinds of punishments in the eighteen levels of hell?
Therefore!
After delaying for 220 years, Judge Cui came up with an opportunistic method.
You don't want to lose your memories, right? You don't want to stay in the Underworld as a reapers, right? Fine, I'll fulfill your wish!
"Wu Xuan, speaking of which, we are actually from the same hometown.”Judge Cui spoke.
"Hello, fellow countryman." Wu Xuan gave a fake smile and shouted at Judge Cui.
"So, don't make things difficult for me. Your enemy has already reincarnated six times and is not on Earth now. Even if you can take revenge, so what?”Judge Cui sighed and said helplessly.
"I want to have a clear conscience." Wu Xuan smiled.
"Alright then."
Judge Cui took out a small blood-red bottle and stood up. He looked at Wu Xuan helplessly and said,"This is a drop of Stealing Heaven Spirit Dew. If you drink it, it can awaken your memories after ten years of reincarnation.”
Judge Cui revealed a pained expression."
"I will personally send you to the reincarnation passage. How about this, you and I each take a step back? Don't make things too difficult for me."
Wu Xuan fell silent.
Not long after, he raised his head to look at Judge Cui. After thinking for a while, he nodded and said,""Alright."
Indeed.
Just as Judge Cui had said, he had been in the Underworld for 360 years and was pretty much familiar with the rules. Therefore…knowing that Judge Cui could not open a back door for him was probably the safest way for him to retain his memories.
Although he was confident in escaping from prison, Wu Xuan could not guarantee that he would succeed.
"Sorry to trouble you, Old Chui. Don't worry…As long as I awaken my memory at the age of 10, I won't make things difficult for you even if I die halfway.”
Wu Xuan was not worried that Judge Cui would deceive him.
If he wanted to deceive them, he would have done so long ago. There was no need to wait until now. Moreover, he also knew that he had to steal a treasure like the Heavenly Spirit Dew. If it was not because he had no other choice, Judge Cui would not have taken it out.
"Remember what you said." Judge Cui rolled his eyes at Wu Xuan.
"Follow me." Following that, he walked in front of Wu Xuan and brought him to the entrance of the reincarnation realm in this area!
……
Not long after.
Wu Xuan and Judge Cui brought him to the reincarnation entrance of this area.
Just as Judge Cui was about to take out the Stealing Heaven Spirit Dew for Wu Xuan to consume, there was a loud bang…an earth-shattering sound.
The entire Underworld was forcefully torn apart by someone from the dark sky.
The moment the hole appeared, an indescribably terrifying suction force was generated from it. The souls of the deceased with weak souls and weak willpower, and even countless reapers, were instantly disintegrated and absorbed into the hole.
Wu Xuan's face turned pale.
The suction force from the hole was so strong that it almost destroyed his soul.
Fortunately, his willpower was strong and he managed to endure the suction force of the gap. Even Judge Cui could not help but be shocked at this moment.
"Damn it, what's going on?" Judge Cui's heart jumped and his expression changed drastically.
But at this moment.
Crack! The sound of spacetime shattering could be heard.
Wu Xuan and Judge Cui looked up at the sky together and saw a thick rod shining with dazzling golden light smashing down from the dimensional rift. It was accompanied by a monstrous and ferocious voice,
"Nether King, do you think your palace can trap me?”
"Now, I, Old Sun, have come out. However, I, Old Sun, can't be bothered to bicker with you, woman. You'd better not chase after me. Otherwise, I, Old Sun, will wipe out the 360 billion Yama Kingdom of the Netherworld with a single rod.”
The fierce voice was filled with boundless killing intent.
As the voice fell, Wu Xuan's soul trembled at that moment. A pair of absolutely cold eyes suddenly opened in the faint space-time gap. Then, a woman's voice sounded,
"Monkey, can you escape?"
The woman's voice was extremely cold, without a trace of human emotion.
As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes emitted thick white flames that burned towards the golden rod.
"Oh my god."
Judge Cui was already dumbfounded." This is the Nether King fighting that monkey.”
"Damn it, that monkey actually escaped from my Lord Nether King Ah Cha's seat. Could it be that even Lord Nether King is unable to suppress this monkey?”Judge Cui's breathing stopped.
"This is Sun Wukong fighting against Hades.”Wu Xuan's eyes widened in disbelief.
Sun Wukong existed in the myriad worlds.
Different from the Journey to the West on Earth, Sun Wukong did not cause trouble in the Heavenly Court, but almost caused the entire universe to collapse. In the end, countless mighty figures in the universe joined forces to suppress him and sent him to the Netherworld. The Netherworld would watch over him personally to see if they could find a way to kill Sun Wukong completely.
A hint of excitement jumped in his heart.
Strength!
If he had the terrifying power of Sun Wukong, he would not have to worry about not being able to take revenge, and he would not have to fear these ghosts and monsters.
"Wu Xuan, I don't have time to stay here with you for too long.”
"That monkey Sun Wukong has already escaped. I'm afraid the Six Paths of Reincarnation and the universe will be in chaos. Drink this drop of Stealing Heaven Spirit Dew quickly so that I can send you to reincarnation.”
Judge Cui was extremely anxious. He didn't even look at Wu Xuan. He took out a small blood-red bottle from his pocket and threw it to Wu Xuan. He then stared at the glittering rod and the pair of cold eyes that could freeze one's soul.
Wu Xuan opened the bottle and poured the drop of Spirit Stealing Dew into his mouth without looking at it.
Now was not the time to lament about the strength of others.
In such an earth-shattering battle, if the power released was slightly stronger, it would be able to directly obliterate his soul. At that time, he would really be reduced to ashes. He would not even need to reincarnate, let alone take revenge.
However, just as Wu Xuan finished the drop of Stealing Heaven Spirit Dew, a ball of fire fell from the endless sky.
"Hurry up and leave."
Judge Cui pushed Wu Xuan and said anxiously.
In his desperation, he did not even help Wu Xuan design which world he would reincarnate into. He directly pushed Wu Xuan into the reincarnation entrance.
There was a clicking sound!
The bottle in Wu Xuan's hand fell to the ground. Judge Cui looked at it and his expression changed drastically.
"Oh no, I gave him a drop of Yama's blood that was given to me by Yama to suppress countless evil souls in the eighteen levels of hell!”
The first chapter was a 4000 word chapter. This chapter was mainly about the golden finger and the foreshadowing after the end of the Wuxia world. If you think it looks good, you can give me flowers and gifts.
