My wife is Invincible East

"Wait!"

King Qin Guang shook his head and said, "I believe that villain won't attack us so soon. We don't need to do anything now. We just need to wait in Qin Guang Hall for Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to come out of seclusion. Then..."

Before he could finish his words, a dark figure flew in from outside the hall and landed heavily on the ground with a "bang". It was a ghost messenger from the underworld. The ghost messenger's body twitched, and a bloody streak stretched from his forehead along his neck to his chest. With a strange "click", he suddenly split in two, and flesh and blood flew everywhere. White bones, red flesh, and a large amount of intestines flowed out along with a large amount of black blood, covering the ground. Life was completely gone.

"Are you waiting for me?"

A man's voice was heard outside the hall, and the sound of "thump thump thump" footsteps approached from afar. A slender figure was reflected in the hall. A pair of feet stepped forward and backward across the threshold and walked straight in.

"How dare you." King Qin Guang glared at him and said angrily, "Who are you?"

"You are Prince Qin Guang? Then you are Judge Cui?! Prince Qin Guang, haven't you been looking for me? Wasn't Zhong Kui the one you sent to arrest me? Now that I've come to Qin Guang Palace in person, why don't you welcome me as your guest?"

Chapter 495: Rumble in the Underworld

Deep in the underworld.

A Buddhist temple named "Ksitigarbha" Palace stands in the middle, with Buddha's light shining everywhere and peace all around.

In the main hall, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva sits upright on a cushion, eyes closed in meditation. In his hand, he holds a string of red prayer beads, shimmering with color. The beads, about the size of longan trees, number fourteen, also known as the Fourteen Fearlessnesses. According to Volume 6 of the Shurangama Sutra, the Bodhisattva, through the miraculous power of the Vajra Samadhi, unites all sentient beings in the ten directions, the three periods of time, and the six realms, enabling them to attain fourteen kinds of fearlessness. Therefore, the fourteen beads on the prayer beads are also known as the Fourteen Fearlessnesses.

In addition to fourteen, there are also eighteen, twenty-seven, fifty-four, and one hundred and eight.

The 1,080 beads represent the 108 deities of the Vajra Realm, and the 108 beads represent the elimination of the 108 defilements. The following 54 beads represent the 54 stages of the Ten Faiths, Ten Dwellings, Ten Practices, Ten Dedications, Ten Bodhisattvas, and the Four Roots of Goodness. The 42 beads represent the 42 stages of the Ten Dwellings, Ten Practices, Ten Dedications, Ten Bodhisattvas, and Perfect Enlightenment. The 27 beads represent the 18 learners and the 9 non-learners. The 21 beads represent the 10 Bodhisattvas, Ten Perfections, and the 21 stages of the Buddhahood.

The fourteen beads represent the fourteen fearlessnesses of the Bodhisattva.

Behind Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, a golden wheel of Buddha's light appeared. It was very bright, but not dazzling, and instead gave people a very pure and gentle feeling. From the outside to the inside of the golden wheel of Buddha's light, there were seven colors of light: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple.

The divine beast beneath Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's prayer table is Di Ting, a tall white dog. Di Ting is Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's mount, and possesses the ability to discern all things through hearing, particularly the human heart.

According to legend, as long as one lies down in the ground with Di Ting, in an instant, all the skinny insects, scaly insects, hairy insects, winged insects, insects, celestial immortals, earthly immortals, gods, human immortals, and ghost immortals in the four continents, mountains, rivers, and blessed places will be able to see the good and evil, and discern the wise and the foolish.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's face was solemn, his hands clasped together, as he recited the Sutra of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow: "Thus have I heard. At one time the Buddha was in Trayastrimsa Heaven, preaching the Dharma to his mother. At that time, countless Buddhas and great Bodhisattvas from the ten directions and the immeasurable worlds, all gathered together to praise Shakyamuni Buddha. He was able to manifest the inconceivable power of great wisdom and supernatural powers in the five turbidities and evil times, to tame stubborn beings and teach them the principles of suffering and happiness. Each sent his attendants to pay their respects to the World Honored One."

"The Buddha told Manjusri, 'Just as if all the grasses, trees, forests, rice, hemp, bamboo, reeds, rocks, and dust particles in the Three Thousand Great Thousand Worlds were counted as one Ganges River, one grain of sand in the Ganges River is one world, and within one world, one dust particle is one kalpa. The number of dust particles accumulated within one kalpa would be equal to the number of kalpas."

"Ksitigarbha, the sentient beings of Southern Jambuvipa have unstable intentions and many are accustomed to evil. Even if they develop good intentions, they retreat in an instant. If they encounter negative karma, their thoughts grow stronger. For this reason, I divide this form into hundreds of thousands of billions of forms to save them. I save them according to their nature.

Ksitigarbha, I now earnestly entrust the heavenly beings and the human race to you. In the future, if there are heavenly beings, good men and women who cultivate even the smallest good roots in the Buddha Dharma, as small as a hair, a speck of dust, a grain of sand, or a drop of water, you should use the power of the Tao to protect these people, so that they can gradually cultivate the unsurpassed, and do not let them retreat.

"Furthermore, Ksitigarbha, in the future, whether gods or humans, according to the retribution of their karma, will fall into the evil realms. When they are about to fall into the realms, or at the gates of the hells, if these living beings can recite the name of a Buddha, a Bodhisattva, a single sentence, a single stanza, or a Mahayana sutra, you will use your supernatural power to expediently rescue them. Then, you will manifest your boundless body at their place and shatter the hells for them."

The Buddha's name was chanted repeatedly. Every time Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva chanted a word, it turned into a "卐" character, floating in the air, and the Buddha's light was brilliant. As Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva chanted, the entire Buddhist temple was filled with "卐" characters.

The Di Ting beast, bent over the desk, suddenly sat up, somewhat restlessly. It paced back and forth beside Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, staring at him with its spiritual eyes, as if it had something to say.

"Listen carefully."

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva opened his eyes and asked, "Do you have anything to say to me?"

The Di Ting beast, understanding human nature, nodded, but could not speak human language. It approached Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, who lowered his head and, after hearing Di Ting's words, asked, "You said that I knew a villain had come from the underworld, but I didn't help. Do you think that's inappropriate?"

The Di Ting divine beast nodded.

"Although you are psychic and understand human nature, you only know one side of the story." Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva shook his head and said, "The true ruler of the underworld is King Qin Guang, one of the Yama Kings, and a righteous deity in heaven. Although I reside in the underworld, I am doing this for all living beings. This matter has nothing to do with me. If I take action, I will be in trouble. As the saying goes, you reap what you sow. Amitabha!"

laugh!

The divine beast Di Ting snorted, as if it disagreed with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

"You beast." Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva shook his head upon hearing this and said, "It's not that I don't want to care, but the time has not come yet. The time has not come yet. When the time comes, I will naturally take action."

laugh!

The Di Ting divine beast snorted loudly, then hunched over the desk again, looking unhappy.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva smiled faintly and said nothing. Suddenly, he patted the Di Ting beast on the forehead and said, "The time has come. Go and receive the guests!"

Tuk-tuk-tuk!

As expected, as Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva finished speaking, there were three urgent and heavy knocks on the door. The Di Ting beast stood up, turned around to look at Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, and walked towards the main door of the Buddhist temple.

Afterwards, the Di Ting divine beast came back with a ghost messenger and lay down beside the table again.

"My humble deity pays homage to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."

The Yin God's ghost messenger clasped his hands together and said, "A villain has arrived from the underworld. After killing the two Yin Gods, Ox-Head and Horse-Face, he also severely injured the Exorcist, the Great Emperor Zhong Kui. Now he is heading towards the Qin Guang Palace, committing a heinous crime. The Lord Qin Guang ordered me to invite Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to come out of seclusion and subdue this villain."

"I understand."

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva moved and sat on the Di Ting divine beast. With a wave of his hand, the Yin gods and ghosts flew into the air and said, "Ding, we can go now!" The Di Ting divine beast nodded, rode on Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, stepped on the clouds with all four legs, and headed towards Qin Guang Palace.

……

Qin Guang Palace.

"Lord Qin Guang, this man is the one who killed the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Demons and injured Emperor Zhong Kui." Judge Cui's face turned pale as he reminded King Qin Guang, "Oh no! How did he get in so quickly? What should we do now, Lord Qin Guang?"

"You, you who killed the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Demons and injured Zhong Kui? How dare you now cause trouble in the underworld? Judge Cui, fetch the Book of Life and Death, check this man's life span, and cross it out for me."

Chapter 496: Rumble in the Underworld

"You are the one who killed the Ox-Head and Horse-Face and injured Zhong Kui?" King Qin Guang said angrily with a gloomy expression. "How dare you cause trouble in the underworld now? Judge Cui, fetch the Book of Life and Death, check this man's life span, and cross it out for me."

"Yes, Lord Qin Guangwang."

Judge Cui opened the Book of Life and Death and flipped through it several times, but he couldn't find Zhu Moye's name or his life span. He frowned, puzzled. This person wasn't recorded in the Book of Life and Death. Could it be that he had mastered the art of immortality? Or perhaps he had achieved immortality, transcending the cycle of reincarnation? So, was there no record of his life span or name in the Book of Life and Death?

Just as Judge Cui was puzzled, the Book of Life and Death in his hand lit up with white light, and three majestic golden characters appeared one after another on a blank page as white as jade: Zhu Moye.

Then comes the record of life span, life span:?

Although Zhu Moye is not from this world, his karma was born when he entered this world. Thus, the name Zhu Moye was derived from the Book of Life and Death, one of the Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Man. However, his lifespan remains unknown.

Therefore, the Book of Life and Death only records names and life spans.

Aside from these two records, there are no other records. His lifespan is unexplained. How bizarre! Could it be that he truly has mastered the art of immortality? His lifespan has surpassed the limit, so even the Book of Life and Death doesn't record the year of his death?

Judge Cui stared at the Book of Life and Death with wide eyes and said in a tone of strong disbelief, "How is this possible!"

"What's wrong, Judge Cui?" King Qin Guang seemed to notice something was wrong with Judge Cui. He frowned and said in a deep voice, "Judge Cui, what are you still standing there for? Quickly cut off this bastard's life span."

"Yes, Lord Qin Guang. Zhu Moye's life span had not yet ended, yet he entered the underworld and killed the two Yin gods of the underworld, the Ox-Head and Horse-Face. He also injured the Great Exorcist, the Emperor Zhong Kui, and then caused chaos in the underworld, killing countless Yin gods. His sins are so grave that his life span has been cut off. I have reported this to Heaven and Earth."

Judge Cui calmed down, but didn't mention the unusual situation in the Book of Life and Death. After receiving the order from King Qin Guang, he didn't hesitate, and with the Soul-Catching Pen, he made a large stroke across the column of Zhu Moye's lifespan. As the Soul-Catching Pen crossed out Zhu Moye's lifespan, a white light appeared above it, and the column for lifespan dispersed like ink dropped into clear water, leaving no trace.

Boom! Boom!

Suddenly, a thunder sounded in the entire underworld, with a huge momentum, as if the heaven and earth were responding to Judge Cui's judgment.

The next second, Zhu Moye felt the changes in his body, his mind trembling. Suddenly, his lifespan was rapidly slipping away, and his body became somewhat transparent, as if it would vanish at any moment. Then, his body recovered. But Zhu Moye knew his lifespan had been cut short. His face darkened, his eyebrows raised, and he flew into a rage. Was this going to end? Cutting short his lifespan?

Thinking of this, Zhu Moye shouted angrily: "How outrageous!"

As he finished speaking, his eyes fell on King Qin Guang, his expression uncertain, and he walked over.

"What are you doing, boy?"

Qin Guangwang's brows arched in anger, his expression dark. But when he met Zhu Moye's cold, murderous gaze, his heart tightened. He seemed to recall Zhu Moye's actions: killing the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Demons, injuring Emperor Zhong Kui, and even attacking the Qin Guang Palace. He was unruly, murderous, and lawless. Thinking of this, Qin Guangwang secretly regretted it, wondering if the other party would start another war in anger.

This guy can't be judged by common sense!

His life span on earth has not yet ended, yet he has trespassed into the underworld.

Iceberg hell, killing the Yin God.

Trapped in hell, returning to the underworld.

Injure Zhong Kui and cause havoc in the underworld!

He was completely lawless, exactly like the demonic monkey Sun Wukong from centuries ago, acting on his own whims, killing without limit and engaging in violence at the slightest disagreement. Having just ordered Judge Cui to cut off Zhu Moye's life span in front of him, King Qin Guang's fury had subsided, and he had calmed down. Had this action completely angered Zhu Moye? Would he kill him?

King Qin Guang took a few steps back, feeling a little weak, but he still shouted, "You little brat, what are you trying to do? You won't be allowed to behave so presumptuously in front of the Qin Guang Palace!"

"What?"

Zhu Moye chuckled in anger, saying coldly, "Prince Qin Guang, you and I have always been friends, but you shouldn't have used Emperor Zhong Kui to deal with me, let alone repeatedly provoking me and slashing my life span. If that's the case, then you can't blame me for being ruthless." After a pause, Zhu Moye narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. "I heard that hundreds of years ago, a monkey king named Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, wreaked havoc in the underworld and rewrote the Book of Life and Death..."

When King Qin Guang heard the other party mention the demon monkey Sun Wukong, his eyelids twitched. He naturally understood the implication of Zhu Moye's words. Was he going to imitate the demon monkey Sun Wukong and really cause trouble in the underworld, or even rewrite the Book of Life and Death?

"How dare you!" King Qin Guang's face darkened as he shouted, "You bastard, you want to cause trouble in the underworld? Do you even know where this place is? Is it a place for you to run wild? Aren't you afraid that Heaven will blame you and send its soldiers and generals to capture you?!"

"Of course I'm afraid of being blamed by the Heavenly Court!" Zhu Moye nodded and said, "But so what? What if a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and generals, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li, Nezha the Third Prince, Erlang Shen Yang Jian, and the Eight Immortal Gods personally come to the underworld?"

"You brat, you really don't know how high the heavens are and how deep the earth is." Seeing Zhu Moye's refusal to budge, King Qin Guang walked towards him with a face full of anger, completely panicking. "There are countless immortals and gods with great supernatural powers in the Heavenly Court, like the grains of sand in the Ganges, countless. Any one of them can subdue you..."

In an instant, thousands of thoughts came flooding in. But Zhu Moye considered various reasons and weighed them again and again. People fight for a breath, Buddha fights for an incense stick. His life span has been crossed out, and he has also offended King Qin Guang. Is this matter just going to be exposed?

Even if Zhu Moye lets King Qin Guang go, King Qin Guang may not necessarily forgive him.

Moreover, King Qin Guang challenged Zhu Moye's authority in front of him and ordered Judge Cui to deduct his life span. As the supreme human emperor of all ages, his status is equal to that of the Emperor of Heaven. How could he allow King Qin Guang to challenge him?

Chapter 497 Rewriting the Book of Life and Death

The Heavenly Palace is located in the celestial realm, one of the Three Realms. According to legend, the Heavenly Palace is the palace of the Jade Emperor. The Jade Emperor is the ruler of the Three Realms and the leader of all the immortals and gods. The Jade Emperor commands the three realms of heaven, earth, and humanity, as well as all the gods and Buddhas in the ten directions, both within and without boundaries.

Although King Qin Guang, one of the rulers of the underworld, was a regional ruler, he was vastly inferior to the Jade Emperor, the supreme leader of the Three Realms. One was the supreme ruler, while the other was merely a local vassal, a relationship of superior and subordinate. King Qin Guang was also canonized as one of the Yama Kings, a title bestowed on him by the Emperor on behalf of Heaven, and thus came under the jurisdiction of Heaven.

Now, the underworld is in chaos and the ghost gods are killed, which will definitely alarm the heaven.

There are countless powerful people in the Heavenly Palace. Most of them are powerful people and masters with great supernatural powers who survived the sect Jiejiao founded by the Sage Tongtian in the ancient times.

Jiejiao, intercepting a ray of hope, is like the saying that there are fifty great ways, forty-nine heavenly developments, and only one escapes. This one that escapes is the ray of hope that Jiejiao wants to intercept, hence the name Jiejiao.

Before the Conferred Gods Tribulation began, the Jie Sect enjoyed a period of prosperity, earning the title of "Heavenly Immortals." However, Tongtian Sage, the Jie Sect's leader, mastered the Way of Slaughter. He possessed the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords, a magical weapon with boundless killing power, rivaling the Four Primal Chaos Treasures. He was the foremost killing formation of the Heavenly Dao, unbreakable only by the Four Sages.

After the Conferred Gods Tribulation, all Jiejiao disciples were included in the Conferred God List and subsequently served in the Heavenly Court, under the control of the Jade Emperor. It can be said that the Heavenly Court is filled with experts, and those with great supernatural powers are all immortals who survived the prehistoric era. The lowest level of cultivation is the Golden Immortal, and many Jiejiao disciples have even reached the level of Daluo Jinxian. As for the immortals and gods in the celestial realm, there are even more, countless talented people!

So, what King Qin Guang said was not without basis, nor was it an exaggeration, but it was true. If this matter alarmed the Heavenly Court, they would definitely send 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals to capture him, just as King Qin Guang said.

However, Zhu Moye was not worried about this. As the saying goes, one day in heaven is one year on earth, and the heaven and the underworld are separated by a mortal world. As the saying goes, the emperor is high above the heaven, and when the truth comes out, there will be enough time for him to leave the underworld.

As for the problems afterward, Zhu Moye had considered various factors and weighed them over and over again before coming up with a plan. A year was neither long nor short, at twelve months and three hundred and sixty days. Not too much, not too little, but enough for him to accomplish many things.

How can the majesty of the Emperor be challenged?

The emperor was so angry that he laid down millions of corpses!

Zhu Moye's gaze fell on Prince Qin Guang, and a golden light emanated from his body, piercing the eerie, blue-white atmosphere of the Qin Guang Palace. Prince Qin Guang and Judge Cui, affected by the golden light, subconsciously shielded themselves from the light with their hands. Squinting, they vaguely saw Zhu Moye's body transform through their fingers. Suddenly, a deafening, humming dragon roar echoed.

In an instant, Zhu Moye transformed into a five-clawed dragon, its massive body tearing the entire Qin Guang Palace apart. A pair of dragon claws extended, grabbing at Prince Qin Guang and Judge Cui, causing their faces to turn pale with fear. Transformed into a three-kilometer-long dragon? The aura of the Human Emperor? He was the Emperor!

Judge Cui and King Qin Guang were filled with shock and fear. When they reacted, a pair of dragon claws covered the sky and the sun, as if tearing apart the ghostly underworld and grabbing them. Their faces turned pale and they flew backwards in terror.

boom!boom!

The dragon claws dug two huge deep pits in the ground, and a large amount of black rock fell from the dragon claws.

"Since you are a mortal emperor, you should understand that you are cultivating the way of the emperor, not the immortal way. This is a rule passed down from ancient times. If a mortal emperor secretly practices immortal arts, the heavens will surely sense it and bring down divine punishment. Why, you are fine!"

King Qin Guang's face drastically changed, his heart completely in turmoil. He panicked and said, "Zhu Moye, I am one of the Ten Yama Kings. You have cultivated so much that you are so presumptuous in front of me. I advise you to leave immediately and pretend that this incident never happened. Otherwise, I will definitely report you to the Jade Emperor in front of the Lingxiao Palace in Heaven. As a mortal emperor, you concealed the secrets of heaven and practiced immortal arts. You even trespassed in the underworld and killed the Yin gods. You commit all kinds of evil and your sins are grave!"

"You're so arrogant even when death is imminent!"

Zhu Moye extended his dragon claw and slapped King Qin Guang away. "Ah, you dare!" King Qin Guang screamed, spitting blood all the way, and flew backwards, hitting the ground heavily, seriously injured. At the same time, another dragon claw reached out to grab Judge Cui. Seeing this, Judge Cui's face changed, and he cried out in his heart that something was wrong. He ran away, turning into a black light and flying towards the horizon. Just as he flew a thousand meters away, a huge dragon tail appeared in front of him. He was swept by the dragon's tail and sent flying backwards.

"puff!"

Judge Cui fell to the ground, limp on the ground, and spat out a mouthful of blood. "So strong!" As soon as the words fell, the light dimmed. Judge Cui raised his head with difficulty, his pupils shrank, and in front of him was a huge dragon head. He swallowed secretly, and a gust of wind came and blew him away.

"No!"

Judge Cui flew backwards and noticed that the Book of Life and Death and the Soul-Catching Pen in his hand had fallen into Zhu Moye's hands. His face changed drastically and he shouted, "No, Zhu Moye, you must not touch the Book of Life and Death. The contents recorded in it are determined by heaven. Tampering with it privately is undoubtedly an act against heaven, and you will be punished by heaven!"

"Zhu Moye, don't be so presumptuous! You can't rewrite the Book of Life and Death!"

King Qin Guang was disheveled, ragged, and covered in blood. He looked extremely embarrassed, having lost his usual high spirits. He flew over in a rage, trying to snatch it back from Zhu Moye. With a loud bang, he was slammed into the ground by a claw.

"What's wrong with me changing it? Are officials allowed to set fires, but common people are not allowed to light lamps?" Zhu Moye sneered, "When you tampered with and crossed out my life span, did you ever think of the outcome today?" After a pause, Zhu Moye opened the Book of Life and Death, made a slash, and removed Zhu Moye's name from the Book of Life and Death.

Boom! Boom!

There was a deafening thunder in the underworld, as if roaring in response to Zhu Moye's actions.

Chapter 498 Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva

Zhu Moye squeezed it hard and said, "Break it!"

As he finished speaking, the Book of Life and Death and the Soul-Catching Pen made a "cracking" sound in Zhu Moye's hands and turned into white powder. Two white lights came out from the powder, penetrated the dragon claws, and shot into the depths of the underworld.
