The time traveler does not die from cause and effect

After Wan Jingyuan left, Ye Zhoutian stood there and watched him until he disappeared into the distance before returning to the Bone Dragon Pavilion.

Back in the museum, Ye Zhoutian seemed unaffected, everything appeared normal, but he was absent-minded, his mind racing.

Lao Xiang directly told him to make his own choice and not to let Wan Jingyuan interfere.

But Wan Jingyuan appeared and relayed the news about the Taiyi Sect to him...

Everything gradually became clear in Ye Zhoutian's mind.

This gives you a choice!
They remained in the Five Elements Holy Land, progressing step by step from guest elder to outer disciple to inner disciple, cultivating their skills step by step.

I went to the Taiyi Sect, where the girl was silently searching for me.

Two choices are now before me.

No one will interfere; you'll just have to make your own choice.

The Five Elements Sect's strategy was entirely aboveboard; it opened its doors, and everything was done in a completely legitimate and upright manner, allowing people to see its potential.

In fact, he had already been attracted to the Five Elements Sect and had the idea of ​​staying there.

Then, Wan Jingyuan arrived and told him that Chen Ling was at the Taiyi Sect, searching for him...

Ye Zhoutian smiled wryly and shook his head.

Is there still a choice?
We must go to the Taiyi Sect; we can't let some other kid steal Chen Ling away.

In the void, Warm Sun slowly spoke:
"You guys are so shameless! You said he could choose for himself!"

The Taoist priest, with his arm around Sang Suqin, said:

"Don't worry about that, we haven't made any arrangements for anything."

Everything is happening naturally; now it's just a matter of waiting for his own choice!

Sang Suqin sneered, "There's really no need for planning or arranging."

All coincidences are inevitably connected; with the slightest flutter of a butterfly's wings, the future has already changed.

"You'd already lost when we set the rules!"

"Everything was his own choice!"

We will absolutely not interfere in the slightest; it's all his own decision!

The Taoist priest immediately said, "My wife is amazing, she's wonderful!"

"Truly worthy of being called the Sun and Moon Furnace of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, exuding the aura of a Purple-Gold Immortal!"

"Speak up!"

The Taoist priest was scolded by his wife, but his expression remained unchanged; he simply smiled, as if he were quite pleased.

Nuanyang was speechless...

"Wife, is this child from our direct lineage? Or is it the bloodline of my other brothers?"

"There are too many, and it's been too long, so it's hard to say. I feel it must be Xiao Wu's child, right?"

"Xiao Wu, sigh, it's been so long..."

Looking at the two of them, Nuanyang shook her head and turned to leave.

Ye Zhoutian has made his decision!
He began to recall the conditions for using the teleportation array.

Tenth-rank Guest Elder, thirty million spirit stones.

However, the Holy Land Reincarnation is currently underway. If you leave with the Taiyi Sect cultivators, you'll only get a few hundred thousand spirit stones.

But you have to be qualified to work with others.

Ye Zhoutian thought about it for a while, then shook his head and looked into the distance.

Whatever, let it be. Since we're here, let's go big!
It was closing time, and Ye Zhoutian was free of trouble!
He didn't return to the cave, but instead took a step and disappeared instantly.

Upon entering the river, he used the Divine Path to enter the River Styx.

The Five Elements Sacred Land is actually where the Styx River is cut off. To be precise, it is not cut off, but rather a huge barrier lake has formed here.

Here, the River Styx forms its own body of water, creating the Yellow Springs.

It is because of this Yellow Springs that when the beings of the Five Elements Holy Land die, their souls enter the Yellow Springs, where they are released and reincarnated.

At this point, there were no more soul problems in the Five Elements Holy Land, and living beings multiplied here.

However, this separation from the River Styx, creating a separate underworld, will inevitably cause problems over time. Without the cleansing of the River Styx, the soul is repeatedly reincarnated, like incestuous marriage; over millions or tens of millions of years, problems will inevitably arise.

In mild cases, the creature may go insane and commit suicide; in severe cases, its soul may be shattered, leaving it devoid of consciousness.

The Five Elements Sect tried every possible method to solve this problem.

In the underworld, they built the Eighteen Yama Palaces, trying every possible way to mitigate this harm.

This only treats the symptoms, not the root cause!
But there's not much that can be done, and it's not just the Five Elements Holy Land that's like this; it's basically the same all over the world.

Ye Zhoutian was momentarily disoriented when he entered the River Styx in this place.

Looking around, I found myself in a huge city.

There was a market, merchants, government officials, and beggars...

The people in the city, peddlers, farmers, merchants, the old, the weak, women and children, were no different from ordinary people.

They were just swaying and listless, their eyes vacant.

Ye Zhoutian looked at them and nodded repeatedly as he strolled through the ghost city.

As he walked, suddenly the space changed, and he found himself in a desolate wilderness.

The desolate mountains and wilderness were terrifying, filled with the wailing of ghosts that terrified anyone who heard it.

Ye Zhoutian continued walking, and in another flash, he appeared in a palace.

In this palace sits the Ghost King, who is none other than Yama.

"What kind of cultivator dares to trespass into the Yellow Springs!"

Ye Zhoutian did not answer, and continued walking.

In another flash, a hellish place appeared!
The Hell of Tongue-Pulling is for those who, while alive, sow discord, slander and harm others, are glib-tongued, use clever words to argue, or lie and deceive.

After death, they are sent to the Tongue-Pulling Hell, where demons pry open their mouths, clamp their tongues with iron pincers, and pull them out slowly, not all at once, but by stretching and pulling them out...

This is actually an imitation of the River Styx, a way to cleanse the soul.

During this tongue-pulling ritual, countless people screamed in agony, suffering unspeakable pain!

Ye Zhoutian shook his head, slowly sat down, and said:

"okay!"

"This is it!"

"Dust to dust, ashes to ashes, life will eventually end, spirit will eventually perish, all things will eventually vanish. No matter how glorious, it is nothing more than a handful of yellow earth and a handful of ashes! A hundred years of life is like a dream. What is eternal and immortal? In the twilight of the world, terror can be heard, but it is but a fleeting moment..."

Ye Zhoutian began chanting the incantation!
As he chanted his incantation, the surrounding Hell of Tongue-Pulling underwent a dramatic transformation.

Whether they are criminals being punished or prison guards committing violence, they are all cleansed of their sins and completely transcended by this incantation, transforming into their most primordial state of soul.

They bowed to Ye Zhoutian, then entered the cycle of reincarnation, entering the River Styx.

But the River Styx doesn't connect here, so they can't leave and they keep reappearing!
Ye Zhoutian didn't care; he was simply performing a ritual of deliverance, an endless ritual of deliverance...

Starting from the Hell of Tongue-Pulling, it expands outwards invisibly, spreading to all hells, the Hall of Yama, and all of them...

The entire Yellow Springs of the Five Elements Sacred Land were saved by his salvation.

The sound of the Rebirth Mantra spread outwards from the Yellow Springs, permeating the entire Five Elements Sacred Land.

Of course, only the most powerful can hear it; they find it hard to believe and don't know how.

But a voice appeared:
"Don't worry about it, don't do anything, just let nature take its course!"

This is the Five Elements Ancestor!

Everyone bowed their heads in reverence, completely ignoring the power of the Rebirth Mantra!
"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust..."

The sound grew louder and louder, and gradually, the Yellow Springs began to move in response to the sound.

It started as a slight ripple, then gradually became a wave, then a towering wave, then the ocean tide, then a cataclysmic tsunami...

Boom, boom, boom!
The entire Yellow Springs trembled violently!

"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust..."

The endless, colossal tremors caused the invisible blockage to crumble and disintegrate bit by bit! (End of Chapter)
