All Heavens: Simultaneously traversing the Primordial World and Shrouding the Heavens

Chapter 123 A Nascent Soul Realm Expert Ventures into the Underworld, the Pain of Demonic Cultivators

The Ancestor of the Hidden Moon Sect stood atop the mountain, gazing at the sect below in a daze.

Her two main disciples stood behind her, and Nangong Que, who had already reached the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, asked softly, "Master, are you leaving?"

Nangong Wan, standing to the side, said with some reluctance, "Master, you have already broken through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm. Now, with the assistance of the Immortal Cultivation Alliance, you will definitely be able to break through to the Divine Transformation realm."

Ancestor Yanyue sighed, "Breaking through to the later stage only adds two hundred years to my lifespan. Breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage in two hundred years is extremely difficult."

Even at the Nascent Soul stage, lifespan is only three thousand years. If one can enjoy an immortal's lifespan without becoming an immortal, then why bother cultivating?

Senior Sister Nangong Que remained silent, but she was actually quite pleased, because once Ancestor Yanyue left, she would be in charge of Yanyue Sect from now on.

However, the next sentence from Ancestor Yanyue made her expression change. Ancestor Yanyue said calmly, "From now on, I will pass on the position to Nangong Wan. Nangong Wan will become the sect leader, and Nangong Que will become the supreme elder."

"Master! I am a Nascent Soul cultivator, why did you give up the position of sect leader to my junior sister?"

Nangong Que was somewhat resentful. In her opinion, the position of sect leader was clearly hers, and her master's actions were far too biased.

In the cultivation world, strength has always been paramount, but the next sentence from Ancestor Yanyue silenced her.

The Old Ancestor of Hidden Moon calmly said, "Because Wan'er is the Daoist partner of Immortal Envoy Han Li."

Currently, all Nascent Soul cultivators have the opportunity to break through, primarily because of the high-grade pills provided by the Cultivator Alliance.

Han Li was the one in charge, and even directly responsible for the allocation.

Therefore, it wouldn't be unreasonable to make Nangong Wan the sect leader in order to win over Han Li. As for Nangong Que, she would have to be able to seduce Han Li.

Nangong Que turned to look at Nangong Wan, his eyes revealing deep resentment.

The more she thought about this guy who got to where he is by relying on men, the angrier she became.

However, she still had to obey the sect leader's arrangements, not out of respect for her teacher, but simply because what Ancestor Yanyue said was right.

In order to win over Han Li, she had to do this, but she was still very unwilling, as this position should have been hers.

The Old Ancestor of the Hidden Moon didn't explain much to her. After waving for Nangong Que to leave, she took Nangong Wan for a walk in the back mountain.

"How is your relationship with Han Li now? Do you want to have a child?"

The Old Ancestor of Hidden Moon's words almost made Nangong Wan choke, but fortunately, she was a cultivator, and her body would naturally calm down if she felt choked.

"Master, my relationship with Han Li is still just that of friends; it hasn't reached that stage yet!"

Ancestor Yanyue turned to look at Nangong Wan, his eyes clearly showing disdain.

"When your master was in the Hehuan Sect, I could have any kind of man I wanted. Now you're so hesitant and timid when you're trying to win over Han Li. Don't you want to learn the cultivation techniques I gave you before?"

Faced with her master's reprimand, Nangong Wan's cheeks turned bright red. All the cultivation techniques her master had given her were methods to please men. How could she accept that? Besides, she and Han Li were more than a hundred years apart in age.

The other person was so young that Nangong Wan sometimes felt like she was committing a crime.

Nangong Wan didn't tell the truth. She and Han Li actually had a deep relationship, but they didn't have a child.

Seeing the other party's appearance, even the Old Ancestor of Hidden Moon had no choice.

"After I'm gone, the only person in this world who can take care of you is probably Han Li. Your senior sister is a strong-willed person and you won't get along."

Your strength is too weak. Although the cultivation world has changed, the core principles remain the same: only strength can determine your own destiny.

In the end, these were all the disciples he could teach. Finally, the Old Ancestor of Hidden Moon turned and left.

Nangong Wan watched her master's retreating figure and bit her lip.

Similar things happened in other sects, whether it was the Seven Sects or the Demonic Path, there were people who wanted to go to the Lesser Immortal Realm.

When Ye Fan convened the council again, there were a total of twenty Nascent Soul cultivators.

Among them were some acquaintances, mainly from the demonic path, with one person from each of the seven sects going.

Ye Fan casually tossed twenty lotus seeds to the twenty people.

These are the credentials for traveling through worlds. Ye Fan is lending them these credentials temporarily and will take them back later.

Black Emperor had been watching for a long time, clearly wanting to snatch one.

He thought this thing was extremely rare, but Ye Fan kept a close eye on him, preventing the Black Emperor from making a move.

After everyone received the lotus seeds, Ye Fan activated the teleportation function, and right before everyone's eyes, a large group of Nascent Soul experts vanished into thin air in the headquarters of the Immortal Cultivator Alliance.

This scene, however, made many people feel that it lacked the ethereal quality of an immortal ascension. After all, it was an ascension to the celestial realm, so it would have been better to add some dazzling special effects.

Linghu Patriarch looked at the departing crowd with envy in his eyes.

He actually wanted to go to the Lesser Immortal Realm, but the problem was that he was the only Nascent Soul cultivator in the entire Yellow Maple Valley.

For the sake of Huangfeng Valley, he couldn't leave. Moreover, his relationship with Ye Fan would definitely allow him to obtain more pills in the future, and his chances of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage would be greater. After much thought, he ultimately had no choice but to stay.

The Hehuan Old Demon of the Hehuan Sect also did not leave, but not for the sake of the Hehuan Sect. He simply felt that he could break through to the Nascent Soul stage and there was no need for him to leave.

The operation of the Immortal Cultivator Alliance will still have to be handled by Han Li. Han Li can't spare much time, and now he plans to cultivate an external avatar.

He entrusted many miscellaneous tasks to his eldest disciple, Li Xiangping.

However, Han Li is in for a tough time tonight.

Han Li, who was in seclusion in his cave, discovered that the restrictions on his cave had been lifted, and only Nangong Wan was able to freely enter and leave the cave.

He was still a little confused as to why Nangong Wan was coming over so late.

Then, Han Li was pressed down onto the jade bed by Nangong Wan.

"Miss Nangong, what are you doing?"

Han Li was completely shocked. He and Nangong Wan did have a very good relationship, but he never thought that he would be overshadowed by a woman.

At this moment, Nangong Wan's cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were full of love.

"Han Li, I actually fell in love with you after you saved me last time."

Now that my master has left, I'm all alone, but I still have you. We must have a child together!

Han Li felt that something was off about what they were saying. Was their relationship reversed? Should he be on top?

I feel like I'm pregnant right now.

This is probably what it means to "reverse the flow of power from above and below"—a scene like this.

Ye Fan had no idea about Han Li's romantic encounters after he left, and even if he did, he would only smile knowingly.

After Ye Fan brought the twenty Nascent Soul experts to Luojia Mountain and into the new world, the expressions of these twenty Nascent Soul experts varied.

The rules of this world are different from theirs, and they can feel that some of their spells are being suppressed.

Their overall strength has been reduced by about 20%, but their core strength has not changed much.

Ye Fan looked at everyone and said, "This is the Lesser Immortal Realm. This world is divided into three realms: Heaven, Earth, and Humanity. The place we were in before is called the Human Realm."

Wang Tiangu of the Ghost Spirit Sect looked around excitedly and said, "Alliance Leader, shall we set off now to attack the Heavenly Realm and seize the Peaches of Immortality?"

"Don't rush into this. The main reason I called you here is to help you rescue people."

In this world, people go to the underworld after they die. We will now directly attack the underworld to rescue two souls.

But remember not to disrupt the order of the underworld, because the underworld contains the cycle of life and death, which is a very important path to immortality.

Ye Fan made arrangements one by one. Then, Ye Fan brought Yang Jian over, and everyone was somewhat surprised to see Yang Jian.

The Old Ancestor of Hidden Moon asked in bewilderment, "Although this child's soul is pure, he is clearly a child, yet his body is that of an adult. Could it be possession?"

Yang Jian looked at the twenty Nascent Soul cultivators, each dressed in different styles, and felt somewhat afraid.

"My sister and I were slapped, and then we grew bigger."

Ye Fan was also somewhat surprised, because he didn't know that Yang Jian had grown up in an instant; he had always thought that Yang Jian was an adult.

However, this also gave Ye Fan great confidence in the abilities of these Nascent Soul experts; their wondrous methods would still be powerful in this world.

"This is Yang Jian. He is the nephew of the Heavenly Emperor of this world. His mother was punished by the Heavenly Emperor for falling in love with a mortal. Now his mother is suppressed on Peach Mountain, while his father is dead and his soul is imprisoned in the eighteenth level of hell."

All the Nascent Soul experts present were cunning and shrewd. Although there were indeed some genuine people among the Nascent Soul cultivators, there were definitely no fools. Many people understood what this meant.

A Nascent Soul expert from the Heavenly Fiend Sect exclaimed excitedly, "Alliance Leader, do you mean we can use Yang Chuo's identity to directly attack the Heavenly Court and seize the position of Heavenly Emperor!"

Stories of a faction carrying royal blood overthrowing the emperor are not uncommon.

For these cultivators who have lived for over a thousand years, although they don't pay much attention to the affairs of mortals, they can often find such things by simply glancing through their books.

"Things need to be done step by step, and this world is not as simple as you think. However, I can guarantee one thing: Yang Jian will definitely become a true God of War in the future."

He can provide you with the immortality you desire, but you will need to cultivate it beforehand, and it won't take long.

"Yang Jian, take out the lotus seeds and give them to them."

Although Yang Jian didn't know why, he trusted Ye Fan and then threw the lotus seeds inside his body to everyone.

People had similar experiences before, so there was no resistance.

Yang Jian replaced Ye Fan's lotus seeds with his own, and if Yang Jian wanted to retrieve the lotus seeds, he would need to kill these twenty Nascent Soul experts once.

Ye Fan felt there must be a way to easily remove it, but he hadn't found the right method yet.

Now Yang Jian could clearly perceive the location of each of them, a feeling that was quite magical.

Next, Ye Fan led everyone to Guanyin, and then they discussed how to go down to the eighteen levels of hell. Guanyin also introduced the terrain of the underworld to everyone.

"The soul must first travel the Yellow Springs Road, from the Yellow Springs Road to the Gate of Hell, and then from the Gate of Hell to Yin Mountain. The eighteen levels of hell are behind Yin Mountain."

The eighteen levels of hell are filled with countless souls. If you want to accurately find Yang Jian's father and elder brother, you need to bring him along as well. Therefore, protecting Yang Jian's soul is of paramount importance in this mission.

Guanyin originally intended to take out a magical artifact to protect the soul, but before she could act, a group of Nascent Soul experts around her pulled out a large number of items.

"This is a Soul-Nourishing Pearl I crafted; it can preserve the spirit."

"This is the Myriad Soul Banner that I crafted. It can not only nourish the soul, but also strengthen the soul."

"What kind of insidious things are the treasures of your Spirit Control Sect?"

Seeing the noisy crowd, Ye Fan could only pull Yang Jian aside first, and then tentatively asked Qinglian, "Boss Qinglian, can I teach Yang Jian how to summon spirits and command generals?"

A line of text appeared in the sea of ​​suffering for both of them.

"Yes, but Yang Jian will need to develop a special ability in exchange."

This was the first time Yang Jian had discovered that Qinglian could be communicated with directly, which surprised him greatly. Ye Fan, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he could use the Spirit Binding Technique.

With his own help, Yang Jian has reached the Life Spring realm, which is just enough to unleash the Spirit Binding and Commanding technique.

After being enhanced by the Azure Lotus, the Spirit Binding Technique, in addition to binding the spirits of heaven and earth, also has various wondrous uses for the soul, including binding one's own soul.

After Yang Jian's experiment, he used the green lotus as a talisman and then extracted his own soul.

When Yang Jian appeared with his innocent soul, everyone stopped their discussion and looked at the blue lotus above his head. For a moment, no one knew how to describe it.

It was a very ancient feeling; you could tell at a glance that it was untouchable and unassailable.

Guanyin sighed, "What a beautiful lotus! But the side effects of this Age-Accelerating Palm are too obvious. His age and soul are not in sync. If Yang Jian wants to fully grow up, his soul must grow up in sync."

Ye Fan asked, "Who used the Age-Inducing Palm? Does the Bodhisattva know?"

This person is definitely a good person, and we can try to win them over in the future.

"Marshal Tianpeng".

"Huh? Pigsy (Zhu Bajie)?"

Upon hearing this name, Ye Fan subconsciously called out his future name.

Guanyin looked at Ye Fan with some surprise, then chuckled and said, "Zhu Bajie is a good name. Buddhism has Bajie, so Tianpeng will become a member of our Buddhist sect in the future."

Guanyin was not surprised. Such methods of predicting the future were naturally possessed by some great supernatural beings, like the Tathagata.

Ye Fan's origins are mysterious. Although his combat power is not as heaven-defying as Tathagata's, it is normal for him to have the ability to predict the future.

Ye Fan didn't know how to explain it, so he could only skip the topic.

"Next, we ask the Bodhisattva to open the road to the underworld."

Then Ye Fan turned to the crowd and said, "Everyone, please also leave your Nascent Souls!"

"yes!"

Twenty people sat cross-legged around Yang Jian's physical body, and then twenty small nascent souls flew out from above his head at the same time.

Generally speaking, the nascent soul can only leave the body for half an hour, but everyone brought special pills to prolong the time the nascent soul can leave the body.

However, when their nascent souls actually left their bodies, they discovered that the pills they had prepared were actually unnecessary.

Because this world has very few restrictions on Nascent Souls, they even felt that even without a physical body, their Nascent Souls could exist for a very long time, enough for them to possess another body.

Upon seeing this, Guanyin took out a willow branch from her jade bottle and gently drew a line in front of her.

A path composed of countless yin energies appeared before everyone's eyes.

After a Nascent Soul expert stepped onto this path, he exclaimed in surprise, "This Yin energy can actually nourish the soul!"

Ancestor Yanyue sensed the surrounding Yin energy and said, "Staying in this place for too long will change the essence of a Nascent Soul. We should rescue them as soon as possible and leave."

Everyone nodded in unison, with Yang Jian at the center, protected by everyone.

After these small nascent souls landed on the road to the underworld, their size gradually returned to that of a normal person.

The group continued along the Road to the Underworld, disappearing from Ye Fan's sight in the blink of an eye. Ye Fan felt a little worried, hoping they would be alright along the way.

Black Emperor lay to the side with his eyes slightly narrowed; he simply didn't want to move.

The reason is simple: he consumed a large amount of restorative pills before leaving.

Han Li's formation couldn't trap him at all, and with the Feng Hou Qi Men and the assimilation properties of the Creation Qi, the Black Emperor was even confident that he could steal the Holy Land.

Fortunately, Han Li had specifically divided the pills into different locations for storage, so losing one place wasn't too painful.

Ye Fan looked at the Black King, who wasn't moving much, and wondered why the dog had been so quiet these past few days.

But it was a good thing that the Black Emperor was quiet. Ye Fan turned to Guanyin and asked, "Bodhisattva, can we see what's happening to them?"

Guanyin actually wanted to correct Ye Fan's use of the title "Bodhisattva," because she was not yet a Bodhisattva.

"Can."

Considering that the other party had the ability to foresee the future, and that the other party was shouting like that, Guanyin felt somewhat helpless.

Guanyin drew a circle in the air, and then a water curtain appeared before everyone's eyes. Through this water curtain, they could see everything that happened on the road to the underworld.

After learning about the characteristics of the Yellow Springs Road, these Nascent Soul cultivators used their escape techniques to transform into countless points of light and rush forward, quickly arriving at the Gates of Hell.

This Ghost Gate Pass was different from the one Ye Fan remembered; it appeared somewhat dilapidated, and the ghost soldiers guarding the gate looked listless.

Upon discovering that twenty beams of light were descending, they attempted to stop the group and demand money.

But as soon as the Nascent Soul expert released his aura, the surrounding ghosts were instantly terrified and let out wails. The ghost soldiers guarding the gate were also so frightened that they knelt on the ground and covered their heads.

The Black Emperor watched from the side and sneered, "These little devils from the underworld are really weak. The underworld is also part of the Heavenly Court, don't they know to send some strong people to guard it?"

Ye Fan opened his mouth, unsure how to answer.

The current timeline is the Investiture of the Gods, but why the Investiture of the Gods?

That means there aren't enough gods in the world.

The underworld is the same; there are no powerful figures in the underworld to oversee it.

There is currently only one Yama King; the Ten Kings of Hell will gradually appear in the future.

If twenty Nascent Soul experts were placed in this world, they would be true immortals capable of moving mountains and filling seas.

So when Yama, the King of Hell, discovered that someone had forcibly entered the Underworld, he immediately reported it to the Heavenly Court. However, it would take at least three days for the Heavenly Court to react.

Yama, the King of Hell, dared not stop them, and Ksitigarbha chose to turn a blind eye. As for the little devils, they were already trembling with fear.

So the group easily entered the eighteenth level of hell.

The events that occurred in Hell sent chills down the spines of all the Nascent Soul experts.

In the Tongue-Pulling Hell, some strange-looking little demons, wielding terrifying pincers, forcibly pluck the tongues from the souls of others.

Because it's related to the soul, even if it's pulled out, the tongue will grow back, but the pain won't disappear.

The hells that follow are even more terrifying, such as the skinning hell and the boiling oil hell.

Even those who practiced the demonic path were horrified by this scene.

After the group passed through the six levels of hell, they were stopped by a figure dressed in a cassock with a kind and benevolent appearance.

Seeing that the other person was dressed up, many people subconsciously associated the other person with Guanyin.

The Old Ancestor of Hidden Moon asked, "May I ask who you are?"

"Just call me Ksitigarbha. I know that Guanyin sent you here. Yang Tianyou is in the sixteenth level of hell. You can go and rescue him."

However, I urge this benefactor to release the innocent souls trapped within your magical artifact.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva looked at the Nascent Soul of the Yuling Sect.

Not wanting to cause any further trouble, the other side simply summoned the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls, releasing thousands of dead souls.

With a wave of his hand, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva took away those souls, and after purifying them, sent them back into the cycle of reincarnation.

He then looked at the other Nascent Soul cultivators, many of whom were quite helpless.

Some of the cultivators from the seven sects adopted a "let's watch the show" expression. After all, those in the demonic sect know that if they don't capture souls to refine magical artifacts, can they still be called the demonic sect?

Besides the Yuling Sect, the Guiling Sect is the same, both named after ghosts, and they have countless magical artifacts of various kinds of spirits.

With a wry smile, Wang Tiangu took out many magical treasures. Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva took them and extracted the souls from each one before returning the treasures to him.

After he finished doing everything, he put his hands together in gratitude to everyone and said, "Thank you for releasing the souls of the deceased."

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva could see that many of the people present were those who had committed extremely serious crimes, but their crimes were not recorded in the heavens and earth.

If they are not people of this world, then he has no need to settle scores with these people; he only needs to save these innocent souls.

After Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva left, the group of Nascent Soul experts looked at each other in bewilderment.

They were once the most powerful beings in their world, but now they've been robbed by a monk.

The Old Ancestor of Hidden Moon spoke up: "Everyone, the Alliance Leader said back then that past events should be forgiven, and we haven't made any mistakes since then."

Now that we've come to a new world, we should sever ties with the past.

Several Nascent Soul cultivators from the demonic path nodded repeatedly; they were well aware of just how bad the reputation of the demonic path was.

But there's nothing that can be done. The cultivation world is a dog-eat-dog world. If someone tells these demonic cultivators that they can become immortals simply by doing good deeds...

These demonic Nascent Soul cultivators definitely want to become the best people in this world.

Although Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva wasted some of everyone's time, he did point out Yang Tianyou's location.

They charged all the way to the sixteenth level of hell, the Blood Pool Hell.

Here, the souls of those who committed evil deeds in their previous lives are thrown into the blood pool, where their bodies are corroded by the blood.

Yang Jian finally found his father and elder brother Yang Jiao.

Seeing the two being tortured in the blood pool, Yang Jian rushed over while crying.

Twenty Nascent Soul experts also joined forces and extracted the two souls directly.

The soul, which had been tormented, returned to normal after being removed from the torture device; only in this way could it endure endless suffering.

Yang Tianyou's consciousness was blurred. When he saw Yang Jian, he said sadly, "Erlang, how did you end up in hell too?"

",
