The Primordial Era: Starting with Jingwei Filling the Sea

The reason why vengeful ghosts and evil spirits cannot be directly sent to reincarnation is not because the underworld deliberately makes things difficult for these ghosts, but because ghosts who are reincarnated with resentment and malevolence will have their temperament affected by that resentment and malevolence. Even more seriously, the pregnant mother may be harmed by the resentment and malevolence.

Releasing vengeful ghosts or evil spirits directly is a burden on families and society.

Therefore, the underworld has specially set up institutions such as the Plain of Unjust Deaths and the Eighteen Levels of Hell to deliver the souls of the dead, resolve their resentment and evil spirits, and successfully send them to the next life.

This policy of the underworld is a great blessing for those who died unjustly or unjustly. After all, even if one wants to stay in the underworld as a ghost cultivator, one's character must meet certain standards.

However, Fang Yang thought that spending a lot of manpower and resources to exorcise evil spirits was a waste of the underworld's financial resources.

Whether the evil spirit repents or not is completely irrelevant.

What good is repentance? The memories will still be erased, and the cycle of reincarnation will continue. In their next life, evil spirits will be born with new consciousness, and their worldview, sense of good and evil, and values ​​will be reshaped.

They will not remember what happened in hell, and they will not know the price of doing evil.

Offering prayers to evil spirits is a completely futile effort.

The purpose of the underworld is to maintain the order of Yin and Yang, allowing all beings to reincarnate and continue the cycle of life. The underworld's expenditure of so much human and material resources on exorcising evil spirits is a serious waste of public resources.

If there were too many underworld officials and ghost messengers, it would be understandable that the Earth Goddess Houtu would provide jobs for them. But in reality, there are simply not enough underworld officials and ghost messengers to meet the demand.

If the underworld used the energy it would spend on exorcising evil spirits on other things, its efficiency would increase by several times.

Fang Yang's figure blurred, and he appeared above the eighteenth level of hell. Beneath his feet lay the myriad realms of mortal life and the sea of ​​suffering in hell.

He raised his arm, and a jet-black token flew out, engraved with the character "Prison". This token was called the Reincarnation Token, and it was distributed to them, the disciples of the saints, by the Goddess Houtu.

As the token appeared, five ghostly figures rose from the five directions of the eighteenth level of hell—east, west, south, north, and center—and appeared before Fang Yang.

Although these five ghost immortals were ghost cultivators, they had already cultivated to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm and achieved the Pure Yang Ghost Immortal body, with flesh and blood growing on their bodies.

They were dressed in five different colored robes: blue, red, white, black, and yellow, representing the Lord of the Eastern Hell, the Lord of the Southern Hell, the Lord of the Western Hell, the Lord of the Northern Hell, and the Lord of the Central Hell, respectively.

"This humble deity pays respects to the Priest of Punishments!"

The five ghost immortals flew to Fang Yang's front and immediately bowed down, their expressions extremely respectful.

They had already received the news from above, knowing that the disciples of the Sage's Great Teaching would temporarily take over the Eighteen Levels of Hell and resolve the various problems there.

As the five ghost immortals bowed in worship, Fang Yang waved his hand, and the yin energy between heaven and earth gathered, condensed, and instantly manifested a solemn and majestic Netherworld Ghost Palace.

"Get up."

Fang Yang turned around and sat in the main seat, while Qian Yao Daojun and the others also found seats in the hall.

"With the permission of the Goddess Houtu, I hereby take over the administration of the eighteen levels of hell. From this day forward, the rules of the eighteen levels of hell shall be determined by me."

As his words fell, a heavy aura spread out, exuding majesty. Under this majesty, the five ghost immortals did not hesitate at all and quickly expressed their agreement.

"I will obey the decree of the chief executioner!"

Fang Yang's gaze swept across the area below, his voice cold: "First, hand over to me the register of the evil spirits under your jurisdiction."

The five prison lords dared not be negligent in the slightest. The central prison lord was the first to raise his hand, and a yellowish-brown jade book flew out from above his head, with the four large characters "Central Prison Codex" written on it. The other four prison lords also presented their respective prison codes. The blue, red, white, and black prison codes floated in mid-air and floated towards Fang Yang.

"Returning to the God of Punishments, this is the register of all the evil spirits in the eighteen levels of hell. From the time of the Lich King to the present day, not one has been omitted."

Fang Yang raised his hand and summoned all five volumes of the Prison Codex. With a sweep of his divine sense, information about the lives, sins, duration of punishment, and intensity of resentment of the countless evil spirits contained within the volumes was instantly and clearly reflected in his divine sense.

His divine sense was so powerful that, despite the vast amount of information on the roster, he could digest all of it with a single thought.

Upon seeing this, Fang Yang finally understood why the Underworld's work efficiency was so low. It was one thing for the evil spirits from the time of the Heavenly Emperor, but even the evil spirits imprisoned during the Lich Wars were still receiving deliverance from the Underworld.

These evil spirits are imprisoned for hundreds of millions of years. Over those hundreds of millions of years, the underworld has expended a tremendous amount of energy and ghostly power on them. Furthermore, the underworld has specifically marked these evil spirits as key targets for their salvation, and has dispatched the underworld officials most skilled in the art of exorcising evil spirits to perform these rituals.

In addition, hell also imprisons many "evil spirits" who are not actually evil spirits.

The underworld judges evil spirits in a one-size-fits-all manner. Any ghost that carries resentment, malevolence, or has killed other intelligent beings is sent to the eighteen levels of hell without distinguishing right from wrong.

Some honest people who lived their whole lives were persecuted and died unjustly. They became vengeful ghosts to avenge themselves and were thus classified as evil spirits.

Some kind-hearted people, oppressed and driven to desperation, are forced to become demons in the eyes of the world. They retaliate by killing, thus becoming part of the evil spirits.

The most outrageous thing is that a mortal in the Dharma-ending Age was labeled as "disrespectful to Heaven" and imprisoned in Hell for ten million years because he was a staunch atheist in his previous life, did not believe in the existence of ghosts and gods, and kept his distance from the talk of ghosts and gods.

This group exists, and their actions are worthy of heaven and earth, and worthy of themselves. How can they confess their sins, how can they repent?

"A makeshift operation is just a makeshift operation; all they do is fabricate false cases. No wonder hell is overflowing with ghosts. Fine, I'll take the loss and send someone to investigate all these cases."

Fang Yang had initially intended to cleanse Hell upon seeing these files. A group of incorrigible demons weren't worth his time. However, after reading the information about the demons, he abandoned that idea.

This approach is too extreme. He came to save lives, not to cut off their lives.

The evil spirits that deserve to die must indeed be sent away, while the evil spirits that are innocent and wronged should be redeemed.

After placing the five volumes of the Hell Codex on the Android device, Fang Yang addressed the five Hell Lords, saying, "The rules of the Eighteen Levels of Hell need to be revised. You may all step back now. My fellow disciples and I will discuss the matter and then inform you of the results."

The five prison lords were eager for someone to take over the affairs of Hell. After thanking Fang Yang, they backed out of the main hall.
