"Pangu's axe! Why has Xuanqing's aura disappeared?"

At the Eight Sceneries Palace, Jing Yao Venerable instantly sensed the commotion of Xuanqing's transformation into dao, oblivious to a blast in his pill furnace, and he promptly headed for the Netherworld.

"Little ox, you stay behind and watch over the house."

Rushing to the Netherworld, Jing Yao Venerable saw Daoist Lord Yu Chen approaching with his sword.

"Daoist Brother, you're here too?" Daoist Lord Yu Chen's expression was calm and his aura fierce, like a Divine Sword ready to be unsheathed, deterring any closeness.

"Did Hong Jun and Yang Mei play dirty?"

Daoist Lord Yu Chen thought of the great war between immortals and demons, suspecting that Xuanqing had been sabotaged.

"That's unlikely." This thought lingered for a moment in Jing Yao Venerable's mind before disappearing without a trace.

"With Xuanqing's dark style, it would be good enough if Hong Jun and Yang Mei aren't the ones being played against."

"Even if he had been sabotaged, it would have been self-inflicted."

Having come to his senses, Jing Yao Venerable also felt he had overreacted.

"That makes sense." Daoist Lord Yu Chen nodded, reigning in his aura.

He thought about Xuanqing's past behaviors and felt at ease instantly, a smile gradually appearing on his face.

"If it's not by accident, then Xuanqing is probably experimenting with the Ghost Immortal Dao Fruit."

"Perhaps it's the Ghost God Dao Fruit."

The two Heavenly Venerates arrived outside Fengdu Hall, where they saw the Ming River lingering outside the Heavenly Palace.

"Daoist friend, you've revived so quickly?" Seeing the God of Death resurrected, Daoist Lord Yu Chen's expression was even more astonished than before.

He was clear about his own actions, having shown no mercy, killing decisively.

He had thought that Ming River would at least need hundred or thousand years to recover, yet it had revived so swiftly?

"Isn't this because Xuanqing's ordeal startled me back to life?" At this moment, Ming River had a look of resentment, startled awake as if from a deathbed, the clown turned out to be himself.

Ming River had thought Xuanqing had truly died, and urgently resurrected, only to discover that Xuanqing was in the process of proving his dao.

"Xuanqing really... proving dao is proving dao, why cause such a huge commotion? It made me die in vain."

Hearing this, both Jing Yao Venerable and Daoist Lord Yu Chen burst into laughter.

Daoist Lord Yu Chen arched an eyebrow, teasingly said: "Daoist friend, want to die again? I can lend a hand for free."

"You?" Ming River glanced at the eager Daoist Lord Yu Chen and his Qingping Sword.

After thoughtful consideration...

In the end, Ming River shook his head: "Never mind, living is quite good too. I'll think about it if I'm ever fed up."

"Let's check on Xuanqing first."

"Let's wait at the Seven Fei Heavenly Palace, perfect for brewing a pot of tea."

Wuyou and Ming River led everyone to the Seven Fei Heavenly Palace.

All Gods settled down, Xiao Cha appeared with a teapot and distributed cups and saucers among everyone.

Before long, the fragrance of the tea was pervasive, and the cups brimmed with life.

"The rules of the Netherworld have changed." Gods sipped their tea, vaguely sensing the influence of Xuanqing's transformation into dao; the Netherworld's rules were continuously restructuring, undergoing incredible changes.

"Even the River of Oblivion has changed." Wangchuan excitedly discovered changes in its own essence, the Netherworld's major river kept widening, and the worlds represented by those previously unknown timelines started to become clearer.

Its tributaries naturally evolved, independently flowing towards those worlds.

"The earth veins are changing too!" Ming River looked towards the Netherworld's west, where the earth veins were shaking violently, and a Divine Mountain rose from the ground.

"And the south as well."

Meng Wuyou's gaze fell upon the south, ghostly auras thrived, with dao energy effulgent; a Grotto Heaven was in the process of gestation.

"The central region is the same."

In the center of the Netherworld, originally traversed by the River of Oblivion, endless rule changes lifted the earth veins, shaping the form of a towering mountain.

These three Divine Mountain peaks, along with Du Shuo Mountain in the east, gradually connected with the ancestral veins of the Netherworld in the north—Fengdu Mountain.

The five great peaks, as the pillars of the Netherworld, reached up to Chong Xiao and anchored down to Nether Spring.

"Eh? The Heavenly Dao of the Netherworld has appeared?"

Jing Yao Venerable looked up at the sky in amazement. A Blood Moon hung high as if a half-opened and half-closed eye, conveying a chill of Great Dao's true meaning.

"Is that Xuanqing? No, it's his thought? Still wrong!"

Daoist Lord Yu Chen looked at the Blood Moon over the Netherworld with a peculiar expression, "Is this where the Netherworld's rules have become sentient, influenced by Xuanqing's transformation into dao?"

"Is Xuanqing strengthening the eternal attributes of the Netherworld?"

Jing Yao Venerable witnessed the Blood Moon becoming more and more spirited, almost certain that the Netherworld was about to give birth to its own Heavenly Dao.

"Uh, can the Heavenly Dao of the Netherworld still be called Heavenly Dao?"

"Why not call it Earthly Dao instead."

Daoist Lord Yu Chen half-joked, "Above ground it's Heavenly Dao, below ground it's the Earthly Dao, seems logical."

Ming River was excited about the earth-shattering changes in the Netherworld: "The ruckus has boosted my cultivation level sky-high!"

"I feel the same," nodded Meng Wuyou, her Qi Fortune rising along with it.

"In such a short time, it's equivalent to my own cultivation of ten thousand years," Wangchuan said with a grin so wide he could hardly close his mouth.

He had planned to cultivate on his own, but ended up lying down and winning again—what a thrill!

The Enlightenment Tea Tree, which was like a sapling, also reaped tremendous benefits, growing a full seven inches taller!

It was now a little tree.

"It seems we've also benefited," sensed Jing Yao Venerable. The feedback was coming from the Great Dao True Realm.

The aura of Fuli Primordial Heavenly Venerate became even more ethereal, with both of them as Heavenly Venerates benefiting as well.

Even the Divine Peach Tree and Reincarnation Purple Lotus, which were traveling the All Heavens, felt the changes in the Netherworld and received their due Dao feedback, with their cultivation levels soaring.

Not only that, the changes in the Netherworld also caused transformations in the Jiuyou World of the Xuantai Great Universe.

King Zhuanlun, along with numerous judges and Ghost Gods, all received a boost in their fortunes.

"We offer our gratitude to the Great Emperor for His grace!"

In the depths of the Nine Netherworld Underworld, beneath the phantom of Emperor Youming, the Five-Colored Lion lay quietly.

This Divine Beast of the Yin Yang Universe had ascended to the Xuantai Great Universe through its own efforts.

Now, its daily routine was to guard Yin Mountain in the Jiuyou World, vigilantly honoring Xuanqing's Dharma Image day and night.

"Has the master transcended?" the Five-Colored Lion wondered with joy, feeling after this wave of Dao generosity that its day of ascending to the Primordial was not far off.

It will soon be able to reunite with its master through its own efforts!

With this Dao affirmation as Da Luo, Xuanqing, the legitimate Ghost God Da Luo, brought benefits to all divine beings of the Netherworld lineage.

From the Netherworld titans down to the lowliest Underworld specter, all were winning without lifting a finger.

The most surprised were the newly appointed Ghost Immortals of the Immortal Dao Plane.

Hardly into their jobs, and the big boss himself had maxed out the group's assets, generously dispersing wealth; they had hardly done anything before receiving the Netherworld's welfare.

"May the Great Emperor be eternal! May the Netherworld be immortal!"

One after another, they expressed their profound gratitude to the Emperor of Fengdu.

The transformation in the Netherworld persisted for quite some time.

When the doors of Fengdu Hall finally opened, everything settled into calmness.

Xuanqing strolled out of the palace leisurely, looking refreshed: "Another beautiful day!"

Hoo hoo~~

The Netherworld Blood Moon transformed into a bright full moon, expressing joyous emotions and sending congratulations to Xuanqing.

All at once, it seemed like stars were falling from the sky, and Golden Lotuses were bursting from the earth.

An aura that was neither increased nor diminished, indomitable and unblemished, blessed Xuanqing.

A Dao Crown gradually took shape and settled firmly upon Xuanqing's head.

A majestic aura unfolded in a flash, images of All Heavens and Universe emerged, the Three Thousand Great Dao shone brilliantly like the sea, myriad Ghost God shadows manifested, and songs from the Demon King Cave echoed through the vast emptiness.

The Earthly Dao of the Netherworld was eagerly asserting its presence, celebrating for Xuanqing!

"Appreciate the sentiment."

Xuanqing looked up with a smile in return.

Hoo hoo~~

The full moon smiled, turning into a crescent.

Praised!

Happy!
