The Six Paths of Reincarnation could be divided into four levels. The center of the inner layer was carved with a huge flame, the Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus. There was a pig on the left, a pigeon on the right, and a poisonous snake below. These three living beings represented the three poisons of stupidity, greed, and hatred.
Directly above the second level was the Heavenly Dao. The sun and moon circled around the top of Yin Mountain, and there was a palace on top. This path magnified the light and was magnificent, incomparable to the human world.
On the right side of the Way of Heaven is the Way of Man. Four people wear hats and robes and stand with things in their hands. This way is where the world lives and where people use their tools. On the left side of the Heavenly Way was the Way of Asura, which was carved with a statue of Asura with three heads and six arms holding various weapons.
As soon as the statue of Asura appeared, Daoist Minghe suddenly had an epiphany. He summoned 480 million Clones of Blood God and many Asuras. The Blood Sea suddenly surged and split into two. A stream of dark energy appeared out of nowhere and turned into a huge whirlpool. Countless ghosts and souls who were worshipping Houtu all entered it.
Taoist Minghe bowed slightly to Houtu and sat cross-legged in the air, revealing the three flowers on his head. Yuantu and Abi's divine sword circled in the air. With a loud bang, a black door fell from the sky. It landed on the edge of the Blood Sea, and there were three divine seals on it: Gate to Hell!
With the appearance of the ghost pass, the spring of the Yellow Spring suddenly spewed out, emitting a yellow smell, and the muddy spring overflowed.
In just a moment, the Yellow Springs had expanded by dozens of times, turning into a sea of the Yellow Springs. A rotten wooden bridge crossed the surface of the sea.
This sea was called the Bitter Sea. It was boundless, and those who crossed it could transcend. To cross the sea of bitterness, one had to cross the bridge. However, this bridge could not bear the weight of a feather.‘, So it's called the Bridge of Helplessness.
Directly below the second level of the Six Paths of Reincarnation was the Path of Hell, which was engraved with the pitch-black Gate of Hell. This was the place where all suffering gathered and was extremely miserable.
To the right of the Path of Hell was the Path of the Hungry Ghosts. The Hungry Ghosts in this Path suffered the most. Not only did they often starve, but they also rarely had a meal in thousands of years. Even if they got one, they would immediately be burned to ashes by the Fire of Karma.
To the left of the Path of Hell was the Path of Beasts, where a lion, a bull, and a horse were carved to be driven by anyone, devouring each other. This path was where all animals gathered.
On the third floor, there was a small round altar carved with a Luosha General. Dressed in the uniform of a general, holding a sword in his hand, he sat down with his lapel closed. The following are engraved in turn in the counterclockwise direction:
An old man was sitting leisurely with a tile wheel beside him. An ape sat in a knot, and a fisherman rowed a boat to catch fish. A cultivator meditated in meditation, a man and a woman rubbed their hands together, and a man and a woman were sitting in the middle of the room. A woman stood up and wanted to tell the man who was sitting. A mother holding a baby, a young man kicking a pot and beating an old woman, and a young man beating a woman. An official in court clothes looked angry, a pregnant woman, and a woman who was pregnant. A waiter was helping an old man, a sick man, and a servant. There was a coffin, and two women were crying while holding the coffin. The man and woman sat side by side and talked, their faces filled with worry. A man covered his face with both hands, feeling grief in his heart. A woman carrying a child on her back bid farewell to a man. A man held the reins tightly, not riding the horse. These statues, in turn, showed the twelve links of life that were mutually conditioned or cause and effect, such as ignorance, action, knowledge, name and color, six places, touch, feeling, love, taking, having, birth, old age (illness), death, sorrow and distress.
The fourth floor was divided into 18 sections, and each section had a picture of the reincarnation of a living being carved in a tube-like sleeve. Starting from the "Heavenly Dao", the counter-clockwise order was: A human head and a human tail symbolized the Way of Heaven. Wolf head and human tail, cow head and animal tail, lion head and animal tail symbolize the way of Asura; The head of a bird and the tail of an animal symbolize the way of animals. The head of a fish and the tail of a human symbolized the path of hell. The human head and the animal tail symbolize the hungry ghost path. The head of a dragon and the tail of a human symbolized humanity.
This kind of image can also indicate the birth and death of the fetus, the head indicates the place where life belongs, and the tail indicates the place where death belongs.
In the Six Paths of Reincarnation, the Heavenly Dao was slightly white, the Asura was dark green, the Human Dao was light yellow, the Beast Dao was light blue, the Hungry Ghost Dao was sub-red, and the Hell Dao was smoky.
Zixiao Palace's Daoist Hongjun revealed himself and waved his hand, throwing out the Connate Spiritual Treasure, the Book of Life and Death, and the Reincarnation Brush. Both of them received a layer of merit, and the words 'Book of Life and Death' appeared on the book, while the word 'Reincarnation' was engraved on the brush.
Houtu sensed something and two spiritual treasures appeared in her hands.
The Six Paths of Reincarnation was established, the Gate of Hell appeared, and the Bridge of Helplessness appeared. At this moment, the Hell was still half completed.
Qing Xuan looked at Minghe and said," I plan to set up the Nether World, the Ten Halls of the Netherworld, and the Eighteen Levels of Hell. Ten kings of hell were chosen to judge the merits and demerits of their lifetime. Those who committed great sins would enter the eighteen levels of hell to atone for their previous sins before they could enter reincarnation again.”
Houtu echoed,"Great good, reward good and punish evil, this should be the case!"”
Taoist Minghe suddenly had an idea and said to Qing Xuan and Houtu,""The Ashura Clan can take on the eighteen levels of hell, but are there any rules for how to set them up?”
Minghe believed what Qingxuan had said. He was one of the few people with Great Divine Sense in Untainted Land. As soon as he heard the word " Nether World ", he understood that when the local government was completely established, it would be the time for Merit from Heaven.
It was obvious that the Ten Halls of the Netherworld belonged to Qing Xuan and Houtu, so Minghe could only settle for the next best option, the Eighteen Levels of Hell.
Qing Xuan knew that Minghe had taken the bait. He smiled and said,""Since Fellow Daoist wants to give the Asura Clan a certain task, then we'll do as you say.”
Minghe bowed and said," If Fellow Daoist needs anything in the future, I will not decline."”
Qing Xuan knew that he had achieved his goal today. What he wanted was Ancestor Netherworld's words.
