Chapter 818 - 807: Reincarnation
"To whom are these Underworld emissaries paying such homage?!"
"Indeed. They are rampant and unscrupulous; even Chen Sheng and Wuu Guang, who reigned supreme in the Late Qin World, were crushed at their whim. Yuwen Huaji and Dou Jiande from the Late Sui World were pummeled into groans and wails. Such ghost gods, yet they have someone they revere?!"
"To whom are they bowing?!"
...
With the Netherworld permeating the three historical Plane Worlds.
The ghost souls transformed from the dead are all guided into this world.
Among them are many renowned figures!
These figures were all slain during the struggles for supremacy and duels. Although deceased, the solidity and stature of their ghost souls are far more formidable than ordinary ghost souls.
However, strong as they are, they stand no chance against the judges or puppet soldiers transformed into Ox Head and Horse Face.
It is precisely due to understanding the strength of the Judge and Ox Head and Horse Face that they feel astounded and puzzled by Ox Head and Horse Face suddenly paying homage to Ding Ling, leading to endless speculation and debate.
Ding Ling merely nodded slightly to Ox Head and Horse Face, then, with Yhiuu Ji in tow, used Instant Step to appear within King Qin Guang’s King Yama Hall.
Yhiuu Ji was awestruck.
Especially upon seeing the legendary King Yama being deferential to Ding Ling, he was even more astonished, unable to close his gaping mouth.
And the person being judged by King Qin Guang at that moment was Chen Sheng and Wuu Guang of the Late Qin.
They too witnessed these scenes with wide-eyed astonishment.
They looked at Ding Ling, all speculating:
"Who exactly is this young man, looking neither tall nor grand, yet even the towering, overbearing, intimidating, and inscrutable King Yama submits to him?!"
Initially, they held a mocking attitude towards Ding Ling’s abrupt appearance.
Thinking that King Yama would certainly harshly punish someone like Ding Ling who disregards rules!
After all, on the Yellow Springs Path, beside the Bridge of Helplessness, any undead daring enough to provoke the ghost gods and act recklessly would be whipped!
They learned their lesson the hard way and became wiser as a result.
However, to their surprise, King Yama actually paid formal respect to this young man?!
Their souls trembled, stunned and shocked beyond belief.
"I am here to send Yhiuu Ji into reincarnation."
Ding Ling pointed at Yhiuu Ji, saying:
’Quickly take Yhiuu Ji through the process; I want to personally witness him entering the Six Paths of Reincarnation.’
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
King Qin Guang respectfully replied.
With Ding Ling becoming the Immortal Realm Emperor!
King Qin Guang’s Divine Paper also became increasingly refined because his Divine Paper falls under the framework of the Three Realms and Six Dao, hence intuitively he also became aware of Ding Ling’s full title, knowing now how to appropriately address Ding Ling.
He no longer called Ding Ling master.
It is naturally different in terms of identity, so the form of address also differs.
Ding Ling did not mind these details, instead following King Qin Guang.
Leaving Chen Sheng and Wuu Guang alone in King Yama Hall staring at each other, until Ding Ling and the others departed, Chen Sheng and Wuu Guang exclaimed with a sharp intake of breath:
"King Yama actually called that young man Your Majesty?! Is he possibly the Ghost Emperor of Fengdu?! Or is he the legendary Celestial Emperor?!"
Their hearts surged with turbulent waves as various thoughts came to mind.
Regardless of which scenario.
Undoubtedly.
Ding Ling is not someone they could engage or provoke.
"And who exactly is this Yhiuu Ji to be favored by such a major figure!"
Chen Sheng and Wuu Guang were filled with envy:
"If only we could also win recognition from such a remarkable person, how great that would be?!"
It was not just them.
Standing at the entrance of the grand hall, Dou Jiande and Yuwen Huaji and others were equally dumbfounded, staring rigidly in the direction where Ding Ling and the others left.
"We actually brushed past legendary figures!"
"Yhiuu Ji? Sounds so familiar!"
"If I remember correctly, the Taoist killed by Sunx Ce during the Three Kingdoms period was named Yhiuu Ji!"
"I recall now. What is it about Yhiuu Ji to earn such regard!"
...
Yuwen Huaji, Dou Jiande, and others all gazed with envy and jealousy so fierce that their eyes went bloodshot!
At that moment, they all wished to stand in for Yhiuu Ji, at Ding Ling’s side!
As for this.
Unknown to Ding Ling.
He followed closely around King Qin Guang, watching as King Qin Guang executed the process, ultimately delivering Yhiuu Ji to the threshold of reincarnation within the Six Paths.
He looked at Ding Ling:
’Your Majesty, what is your choice?’
Yhiuu Ji was stunned like a stone pillar!
Through it all.
He saw too many undead judged and imprisoned, saw ghost souls lined up to take turns drinking Meng Po Soup.
Only he, through conveniently opened doors, was unimpeded in reaching the gateway to reincarnation within the Six Paths.
Led covertly by the legendary King Yama, what does it feel like,?!
Now Yhiuu Ji experienced it.
It’s simply exhilarating!
Thinking of the envious, jealous, bewildered, and incredulous gazes of the ghost souls along the way, Yhiuu Ji’s heart was filled with mixed emotions.
He dislikes backdoor dealings.
But when it’s actually his turn, one must admit, it’s truly a relief!
For that, he felt deeply grateful to Ding Ling; without Ding Ling, in Hell after his death, the treatment he would receive would definitely not be better than others, surely accompanied by a series of cumbersome procedures.
How could it be like now, smoothly reaching the Six Paths of Reincarnation?
"Senior, in which world do you wish to be reborn? And what person do you wish to be?"
Ding Ling looked at Yhiuu Ji.
Yhiuu Ji was amazed:
’Even this can be chosen?!’
"Yes."
"...!!!"
Yhiuu Ji gasped, pointing at his head:
"My memory?"
"Will be preserved."
"Even the memory is preserved. This, isn’t it too good."
Assisted so openly in opening ’convenient doors’.
Yhiuu Ji was a bit apprehensive, not out of fear, but the feeling of undeserved favor.
"There’s nothing wrong with it."
Ding Ling smiled and said:
"This facilitates your path to enlightenment. Should you in the future refine your skills successfully, you can advance to the Immortal Realm, then naturally someone will come to escort you to become a god."
Yhiuu Ji was profoundly moved:
"Your Majesty. How shall I repay you in the future?"
After dying, Yhiuu Ji’s form of address for Ding Ling changed, from Prince to Ding Ling.
Apparently, upon a person’s death, their mindset also subtly changes in the void.
Currently, he also follows King Qin Guang in addressing Ding Ling as Your Majesty.
As he has hope for reincarnation.
Thus, courtesy must not be abandoned.
"Senior, refine your skills well, becoming immortal and imperishable, naturally providing you a chance to repay."
Ding Ling replied with a smile.
"Alright."
Yhiuu Ji nodded, pondering repeatedly, then said:
"I choose the Late Sui World — a humble abode."
King Qin Guang questioned:
"Why not opt for a wealthy and prestigious home? That would better aid martial training?"
"I am born with retained memory. Taiping Qingling Dao was recently cultivated to Great Perfection, the Medical Canon is mostly memorized. Under such circumstances, I shall refrain from seizing others’ welfare. Retaining memory after being reborn already constitutes cherished fortune."
