It can be said that karma itself is the most extreme manifestation of sin, and its causal relationships are one of the most corrupting sources of power in the world.

Information flowed through Luo Tian's mind, flashing through various thoughts about karma.

"The eighteen levels of hell punish sinners to accumulate karma, which is itself a part of the cycle of reincarnation."

If a sinner is reborn into the next life without proper planning, the karma he has accumulated will also be reborn with him. When it accumulates to a certain extent, it will have an impact on the entire world.

After the eighteen levels of hell punish sinners and cleanse their karma, only pure souls are qualified to enter the cycle of reincarnation, thus maintaining the purity of the world.

"But in this way, the karma that is washed away in the eighteen levels of hell will not dissipate, but will accumulate in the eighteen levels of hell and be integrated into the entire hell system."

The eighteen levels of hell have only been built for a short time, and the problems caused by the accumulation of karma have not yet manifested. The eighteen levels of hell can still sustain us.

However, over time, the accumulated karma within the eighteen levels of hell will inevitably affect the normal operation of the hell system!

Luo Tian quickly realized the danger involved, and his gaze toward the eighteen levels of hell before him grew increasingly solemn.

Looking at the scene before him, Luo Tian couldn't help but mutter to himself:

"In the origin myth, the underworld is guarded by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, who suppresses hell and bears the great cause and effect and great vow that he will not become a Buddha until hell is empty, thereby eliminating karma."

However, in the underworld under my control, there is no Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva who can eliminate karma, and the root problem between the eighteen levels of hell and karma remains unresolved.

"Could it be that I should also go and capture a Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to work for me?"

Luo Tian looked thoughtful, considering the feasibility of the problem very seriously.

After a long pause, Luo Tian shook his head.

"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is the only great being in all realms who has reached the Taiyi Dao Fruit realm, comparable to great divine power. You cannot find a second one in the entire heavens."

By killing the White Bone Bodhisattva, I've already put Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva on the opposite side. Even if I could actually 'invite' Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva over, I might not dare to use him.

"It's unrealistic to find another Bodhisattva to eliminate karma."

Buddhism may have similar methods, but there is only one Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva capable of suppressing hell. If every Bodhisattva possessed this ability, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva wouldn't be one of the Four Great Bodhisattvas, second only to a few Buddhas.

As he muttered to himself, Luo Tian slowly raised his right hand, and the pulsating dark red desolate world in his palm came into view.

"So... the opportunity to find another way lies with Tartarus?"

And is this the root cause of Tartarus's unusual behavior?

Although both the Eighteen Levels of Hell and the Hell Realm contain the word "hell," their essences are completely different.

The eighteen levels of hell are merely a place to cleanse the karmic debts of the deceased and purify their souls.

Tartarus, the underworld, is the prison in Greek mythology that held the gods captive, representing an extremely terrifying power to destroy the world.

The two are vastly different in both function and status, and they can never be put together.

"No! In some ways they do have some similarities."

Replacing Tartarus might actually achieve the desired goal!

A flash of inspiration struck Luo Tian, ​​and with a step, he sank directly into the deepest level of the eighteenth level of hell.

It was a small, dark world, almost completely different from the other seventeen levels of hell.

In this level of hell, only a few enormous chains bound a frail-looking figure clad in red armor.

The eighteenth level of hell, the Avici Hell!

This is a hell created by Lilith specifically to imprison the first guest of the eighteen levels of hell, and also the only powerful deity in the entire eighteen levels of hell: the succubus queen Mechanshute.

Originally, before the Underworld was fully developed, almost all the forces of the Underworld were gathered in order to suppress Mekansut, and even Luo Tian himself attached great importance to it.

However, in just over two years, as the ranks of the underworld continued to grow and numerous ghosts and gods comparable to powerful deities were born, this once-valued prisoner was forgotten in the eighteenth level of the Avici Hell.

"I never expected that such a distinguished person would grace my prison with their presence. It is truly an honor!"

A soft, seductive voice echoed in the dark, desolate hell. The succubus queen, bound there, looked at Luo Tian's arrival with a flickering gaze.

Luo Tian merely glanced at the Succubus Queen, and with a light wave of his right hand, the chains connecting the eighteen levels of hell crumbled inch by inch.

The succubus queen, who had been bound, was thus easily freed.

The succubus queen was filled with astonishment; the scene before her left her speechless.

Being imprisoned here for more than two years is not a long time in the long life of the succubus queen.

However, as the underworld was perfected, the Succubus Queen could feel the chains binding her becoming increasingly heavy, and the powerful aura within the underworld was also increasing.

The lingering hope of escape was almost entirely extinguished by external pressure, causing the Succubus Queen to nearly abandon any idea of ​​a safe escape.

In her view, she might be lucky enough to escape the predicament by paying a certain price.

If she's unlucky, she'll most likely face death.

But whatever her thoughts were, she never expected that Luo Tian would release her so easily.

Standing there fearfully, the succubus queen suppressed her previous frivolous smile and cautiously began to speak:

"What are your orders, sir?"

Luo Tian only glanced at the Succubus Queen. He had imprisoned her due to circumstances, and after sending her to the Eighteenth Level of Hell, he completely forgot about her.

Now that he has joined forces with the will of the abyss, and the Succubus Queen herself belongs to the endless abyss and has a close relationship with the daughter of the abyss, Divina, there is no need to continue imprisoning her.

Waving his hand, Luo Tian casually said:

"Your sentence is over. If you want to leave, hurry up and go!"

Upon hearing this, the succubus queen couldn't help but tremble, her expression filled with surprise and uncertainty.

She didn't believe that Luo Tian would let her leave so easily.

A powerful demon king, whether through the treasures he possesses or his own formidable strength, can bring immense value.

Luo Tian's casual letting her go was completely contrary to common sense.

"Is it a twisted pleasure of verbally letting me go, only to imprison me in other ways later, just to enjoy watching my emotions shift from hope to despair?"

The succubus queen's mind was in turmoil, and she remained standing in place, not daring to move an inch.

Luo Tian just said it casually, and the Succubus Queen did not force her to leave because she did not want to.

Holding Tartarus in his right hand, Luo Tian said earnestly:

"Since you are unwilling to leave, stay and be a witness, and witness the birth of a true Avici Hell!"

Chapter 360 The Path of Hell Opens!

"The true Avici Hell?"

The succubus queen looked puzzled and was about to speak again, but the scene that appeared in front of her the next moment made her freeze in place.

It was a blood-red sun, its ominous and dark crimson light completely engulfing the entire Avici Hell. The darkness that had enveloped the entire Avici Hell vanished in an instant, and everything in sight was dyed blood-red.

In an instant, the entire Avici Hell began to tremble.

As the lowest level of the eighteen levels of hell, and also the lowest level of the entire underworld, the Avici Hell should be the most stable space.

The world barrier of the underworld stabilizes this hellish realm. The roots of the ginseng fruit tree, the first spiritual root of heaven and earth, form the foundation of the entire underworld, making the Avici Hell unshakeable.

It is precisely for this reason that Avici Hell can serve as a prison for the succubus queen.

Right now, the most stable hell in the underworld is trembling, and when this is reflected to the outside world, the entire underworld is rumbling in response.

The earth began to crack, and the surging waters of the Yellow Springs stirred up a raging torrent, sweeping countless souls from the Yellow Springs into the sky.

All the ghosts and spirits in the underworld could see the sky begin to crack, and behind the shattered sky, enormous roots connected the entire underworld, and everything in sight was a scene of utter apocalypse.

Ghost City, Road to the Underworld, Fengdu... even the towering Mount Tai throne seemed to sway precariously under this enormous tremor, and the Ten Courts of Yama and the City of Ghost Emperors were on the verge of collapse.

Throughout the entire underworld, only the Six Paths of Reincarnation, high above all, seemed to be isolated from this matter and unaffected by it.

If someone could see the Six Paths of Reincarnation at this moment, they would surely discover that the Hell Path, which originally had only a single opening above the Six Paths of Reincarnation, is now slowly opening.

Luo Tian gazed at the chaotic scene in the underworld, while Tartarus of the Hell Realm on his right hand silently covered the entire Avici Hell.

An even louder roar resounded, as if the hell realm were a towering giant trying to squeeze into the cramped room of the Avici Hell.

Despite the support of the Netherworld and the spiritual roots of the Ginseng Fruit Tree, the rising sun had already shaken the foundation of the Netherworld. Under the crushing pressure of the great power that followed, the Avici Hell, which could imprison powerful gods, was now heading towards irreversible collapse.

The shattered fragments of space began to blend into the background illuminated by the crimson sun, and the vast fragments of space constructed a new order belonging to the Avici Hell.

The originally dark space was gradually replaced, and the ground began to be replaced by a dark red, barren land, symbolizing that the great giant of Tartarus was adapting to this small room.

Finally, after all the space had completely merged into the background under the crimson sun, the new Avici Hell was completely stabilized, and the violent tremors that had spread throughout the entire underworld finally stopped.

"it's over?"

This thought flashed through the minds of all the ghosts, gods, and spirits in the underworld, including the succubus queen.

But in the next moment, an even more terrifying power suddenly erupted from the lowest level of the underworld.

In that replaced Abyss, one of the former Titans, Atlas, the god who held up the sky, stood upon the earth.

He stood on the earth, his hands and shoulders supporting the entire sky of Avici Hell. With a roar that resounded through the heavens and earth, this small hell at the lowest level began to rise higher and higher.

The god who single-handedly held up the heavens and earth of the origin of Greek mythology, now used his terrifying power, which even the greatest divine power could hardly match, to forcefully open up the Avici Hell.

The originally smallest Avici Hell began to expand wildly, and in almost an instant, it surpassed the combined area of ​​the other seventeen levels of hell.

The roots of the ginseng fruit tree exerted all their strength to protect the trembling underworld, but the price they paid was that even this number one spiritual root of heaven and earth swayed slightly under the immense power of the god who held up the sky.

The stars trembled instantly, and all the immortals in the entire Xuanhuang Great World seemed to sense it, their faces showing shock.

Even Zhen Yuanzi, who was sitting in front of the chessboard in Wuzhuang Temple and preparing to start his strategy, was astonished as he stared at the enormous world expanding beneath the roots of the ginseng fruit tree.

Even the mighty god who held up the heavens eventually ran out of strength. After a period of violent expansion, the entire Xuanhuang Great World once again fell into calm.

Zhen Yuanzi stared in astonishment at everything before him. As Tartarus merged into the Avici Hell, the original size of the Underworld and the Seventeen Levels of Hell remained unchanged, but the Eighteen Levels of Hell, which served as the foundation of the Underworld, expanded by hundreds of millions of times.

The narrow eighteen levels of hell are almost as big as the entire underworld and the seventeen levels of hell combined.

Within the entire Xuanhuang Great World system, the Underworld, representing the Yin realm, has expanded to almost the same size as the Yang realm of the entire Xuanhuang Great World due to the expansion of the Avici Hell.

The original Xuanhuang Great World was entirely dominated by the Yang Realm, with the entire Underworld being merely an appendage.

However, the Avici Hell completely changed this situation, making the underworld no longer a vassal, but possessing the foundation to compete with the mortal world.

The Xuanhuang Great World has the Ginseng Fruit Tree as its core, while the Underworld has the Avici Hell as its foundation.

Despite the vast difference in the number of powerful individuals, the essence of the mortal realm and the underworld remains unchanged.

Zhen Yuanzi gazed intently at the changes in the underworld and couldn't help but sigh:
