Conferred God: Got cramped at the beginning

Chapter 803: Difficulties of Justice, Entering the Netherworld First

"Fellow Daoist, being the Great Lord of Justice is not an easy job." Looking at the sky prison that was being built, Zhao Gongming sighed beside Ao Bing.

"The responsibility of the Great Lord of Justice is not only to maintain the laws of heaven, but also to investigate and pursue the perpetrators."

"In my opinion, with the current power of the Dragon Clan, I'm afraid it can't support the status of the Great Lord of Justice."

"Fellow Daoist, do you need me to go to Jin'ao Island and invite some fellow disciples?"

Zhao Gongming said - he was not the kind of person who would hesitate.

Although he knew that the position of the Lord of Justice was a pitfall, since Ao Bing had already taken over the position, what he had to consider was how to join forces with Ao Bing to expand the business.

At present, the greatest difficulty faced by the Lord of Justice is to "sort out old cases".

The purpose is to sort out the past of all the immortal officials and generals in heaven.

This process not only requires manpower, but also requires the manpower to sort out these things, and they must have considerable strength. These people must be able to cope with the pressure from the immortal officials and generals, and they must not be deceived. Furthermore, they must not collude with others for interests or other reasons.

In particular, some immortal officials and generals would use the personnel sent by the Lord of Justice as weapons to attack each other and seize power.

Even if they are as harmonious as Jiejiao, when the Golden Spirit Mother is rectifying the sect's style, there will always be some Jiejiao disciples who will take the opportunity to plant some thorns in the side of their fellow disciples who had disputes with them in the past. What about the immortal officials and generals in Heaven who are already fighting for power?

Zhao Gongming can guarantee that if the people sent out by Ao Bing have even the slightest bit of "improper conduct", their existence will definitely become a weapon in the hands of the immortal officials and generals to attack each other.

"Fellow Daoist, I am not worried about the safety of the messengers you sent out - after all, whoever dares to attack them is tantamount to saying that there is something wrong with him."

"Your Tianjun Palace has so much authority that it is no exaggeration to say that you have the power to depose and appoint immortal officials and generals, and to determine the succession of immortal sects and traditions."

"If the envoys of the Heavenly Monarch Palace are selected rashly, not only will they fail to restrain the heaven and earth with the Heavenly Rules, but they will cause endless harm."

"How about I go back to Jin'ao Island and invite some fellow disciples to serve you, so that we can set up the Tianjun Palace first, and then clean up the old cases while recruiting new people, how do you think?"

"Manpower is indeed a troublesome issue." Ao Bing murmured.

In his generation, the Tiangui judicial system had existed from the beginning - even if the Tiangui judicial system gradually collapsed later, only a small part of it collapsed, with the 'Law of Death' missing. The other life and death punishments had always been in operation, so it was easy to rebuild and supplement it.

To be honest, the most troublesome experience Ao Bing had ever gone through was actually the period after the karma system was established, when all the karma positions between heaven and earth were taken into the Heavenly Court, all the immortals and gods between heaven and earth were registered, and then the merits and demerits were cleared.

But here, what Ao Bing has to do is to build a system of heavenly justice from scratch.

You can imagine how difficult this is.

And what is the most difficult part?

The point is how to get people between heaven and earth to join the Palace of the Lord of Justice.

Given the vastness of the universe and the infinity of living beings, there are also countless outstanding people among them - but how can we make them willingly join the Palace of the Lord of Justice and become a part of the judicial system of the Heavenly Court?
You know, in this generation, although the existence of Heaven is intimidating, it is far less attractive than that of Ao Bing's generation.

It is also difficult for the power of heaven to pass through humanity and fall on those sects based in the human world.

To be honest, it was not difficult for Heavenly Court to destroy those immortal sects, but it had no effective rule over them at all - at the same time, the immortal officials and generals in Heavenly Court had always been unwilling to let Heavenly Court take this step.

After all, there are many immortal sects and schools in the human world, which are actually subordinates of the immortal officials and generals in heaven. They are their "private" forces, acting as their "claws and wings" to maintain their influence in the human world. At the same time, these immortal officials and generals also protect the interests of those immortal sects and schools, and the upper and lower parts are connected as one.

"Fellow Daoist Gongming, what do you think? I should go to the netherworld and bring back some souls to serve as an inspector of the Palace of the Lord of Justice?"

"Souls from the underworld?" Zhao Gongming was shocked, and the fingers that were flicking his beard suddenly froze.

"That's right, the soul of the underworld." Ao Bing's thoughts were suddenly opened up.

Under the system of soul consumption, how many lives have become victims?

Although among the countless souls, the vast majority have become confused or entangled in resentment and unwillingness.

But amidst such a huge size, there will always be some "gifted" people who can restore their consciousness in the netherworld.

These souls that have regained consciousness, because they were harmed by illegal Qigong practitioners, are naturally inclined to "correct and denounce lawlessness."

As for the knowledge they lack, the common sense they lack, and their character - a dream that is real enough is enough to make up for the knowledge and common sense they lack, and it is also enough for Ao Bing to see their character clearly.

Ao Bing pondered the pros and cons of this matter. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his idea was more feasible.

"Without further delay, I will head to the Netherworld now." Ao Bing took Nezha with him, "Nezha, let's go!"

The mystery of the underworld evolved in front of Ao Bing, and the passage to the underworld also unfolded in this heavenly palace.

……

When Ao Bing stepped into the underworld, his name was once again sung in the world.

The war in the North Sea and the fighting between the princes were temporarily calmed down because of this.

The immortal sects and Taoist schools scattered everywhere were in urgent contact with the immortal officials and generals who were involved with their own Taoist lineages.

In the past, the Qigong practitioners between heaven and earth did things without any taboos - as long as it did not violate their own morals and the laws of their sect, there was nothing they could not do.

No one in the world has ever told them what they cannot do.

This tradition has continued for countless thousands of years.

However, now, seventy-two death laws suddenly spread out from the Heavenly Palace, telling the Qigong practitioners between heaven and earth what they cannot do - what's worse, even the sects and lineages will be implicated and perish together.

How could the Qigong practitioners, immortal sects, and Taoist schools between heaven and earth not pay attention to the situation of these 72 death laws?

As for opposing these 72 death laws - if these were just the 72 death laws introduced by the Heavenly Court, everyone would just treat them as a thunderbolt and then disappear without a sound and no one would pay any attention to them.

However, these seventy-two death laws were jointly issued by almost all the great masters in the world.

In such a situation, even the Human King who was also in the Lingxiao Palace had accepted the existence of these 72 death laws. What else could their immortal sects do except accept them?
Therefore, for all the Qigong practitioners in the world today, how strictly these seventy-two death laws are enforced is the topic they are most concerned about.

Then they knew what was happening in heaven.

The newly appointed Lord of Justice did not order the skilled craftsmen in Heaven to build a new mansion for him. Instead, before building the mansion, he first ordered those skilled craftsmen to build a prison in Heaven.

Therefore, without any other words, all the Qigong practitioners who had received the news between heaven and earth knew about the strength and determination of the newly appointed Lord of Justice in enforcing the Heavenly Rules.

Similarly, anyone who is a little smarter would also know how the Jade Emperor in Heaven would support the determination of the Lord of Justice after this decision is made.

After all, the Great Lord of Justice said that although the law does not involve the past, the Heavenly Court is different after all - so the immortal officials and generals in the Heavenly Court must also review their past. Once anyone has violated the 72 death laws, they can only wait for the Jade Emperor to pardon them.

It is obvious that the heavenly prison that is being built is prepared for these immortal officials and generals.

As for the Jade Emperor, although the formulation of the Heavenly Rules undermined his authority, the construction of the Heavenly Prison could consolidate his authority to an unparalleled level - even before the Heavenly Rules, when the Emperor of Heaven held sole power in Heaven, it was difficult for him to decide the life and death of the immortal officials and generals in Heaven.

But now, with the support of the Lord of Justice, he has such an opportunity!
The lives and futures of countless immortal officials and gods depend on the thoughts of this Heavenly Emperor.

The immortal officials and generals in Heaven are all like this - how could the immortal sects under Heaven be any exception?

In this way, one can imagine to what extent the Jade Emperor's authority in Heaven will be enhanced.

No one would let such an opportunity slip away.

This means that this solitary Lord of Justice is not a being with only a nominal title and is placed on a pedestal - instead, he is a Lord with real power who is bound to receive the full support of the Jade Emperor. As long as he survives, he is destined to stand at the top of heaven and earth.

Moreover, even if one of them dies, the Jade Emperor will definitely send new people to push forward the strategy of the Great Lord of Justice with even stronger determination.

And this means that even if they resist, their resistance is meaningless.

"The Lord of Justice cannot travel all over the world by himself. He does not have the time or energy to do so."

"So, even if he is as noble and resolute as he is, he still needs claws and wings to make the law net of heaven cover the world, and to impeach the past of the many immortal officials and generals, and the countless sects and schools one by one."

"This is the opportunity."

"I wait, got it!"

Soon, countless people came to their senses - they did not need to confront the Great Lord of Justice who was at the peak of his powers. Instead, they only needed to deal with the Patrolling Angels found by the Great Lord of Justice.

The results found by the patrolling angels, except for some particularly outrageous ones that would attract review by the Great Lord of Justice, the other results would basically be recognized.

As long as the patrolling angels believe that they are innocent, there is a great possibility that they are truly innocent!

"Does anyone know how the Great Lord of Justice plans to select his own angel patrollers?" As countless ripples spread out, more immortal officials and generals appeared in the North Sea.

If those who have violated the death penalty want to survive, they need to obtain the pardon of the Emperor of Heaven - during this process, in addition to the so-called "the law does not punish the masses" which forces the Emperor of Heaven to give in, they also need to have enough merits to give the Emperor of Heaven a "reason" to pardon them.

It is hard to talk about the past merits - so at this moment, they are destined to be used as the 'chicken' to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, that is, those demons and immortal evil thieves who are involved in the consumption of souls. Taking them to heaven will be a merit!
After all, those immortal demons and evil spirits who exploited souls were the first to be identified as "evil spirits" since the establishment of Heaven. Similarly, the action against them was also led by Heaven, which was the first to obtain the decision of all beings between heaven and earth.

Even the discussion about the Heavenly Rules in Heaven originated from this!

……

"Greetings to the Central Ghost Emperor." Ao Bing's figure appeared in the underworld.

In the past, the underworld was suppressed, blocked, and watched by countless Daluo who were trying to catch them, and they never intercepted souls - but now, the souls in the underworld are only some of those who died suddenly or whose life span has not yet ended.

Therefore, the underworld at this moment seemed unusually empty and quiet.

Because Yin and Yang have been separated for too long, the Yin and Ming Qi in the underworld is quite different from the various vital energies in the Yang world. There is even a conflict between them. Once ordinary Qigong practitioners inhale and exhale this Yin and Ming Qi, this Yin and Ming Qi will directly erode their magic power, and even erode the Qi they cultivate.

Although all the Daluo were discussing other details of the Heavenly Rules in the Lingxiao Palace, and using their own magical powers to deduce the various changes that would occur after the Heavenly Rules, the Daluo had infinite incarnations - their meeting in the Lingxiao Palace did not affect the matters at hand.

Looking at the Central Ghost Emperor who was both mighty and evil in front of him, Ao Bing could not confirm whether the Daluo from the Netherworld who were heading to the Lingxiao Palace were their real bodies or incarnations.

"No need to guess." Between thoughts, the Central Ghost Emperor seemed to see through Ao Bing's thoughts and spoke directly.

"The Queen Mother Hou Tu is sleeping in the netherworld, saving countless infant spirits through dreams - her real body is here, and we, the gods of the netherworld, are naturally guarding here with our real bodies as well."

The Central Ghost Emperor said this, not hiding his dissatisfaction with Ao Bing at all.

Following the gaze, there were many more figures of Daluo in the underworld - they were all Daluo who had landed here as clones.

They came to the Netherworld in accordance with the agreement in the Lingxiao Palace to confirm the process of reincarnation of souls in the Netherworld. At the same time, they also confirmed the limits of their interference in the affairs of the Netherworld, their "monitoring" of the ghosts and gods in the Netherworld, and the possibility of their respective disciples leading the Heavenly Court's edict to the Netherworld to take charge.

So many Daluo have come to the Netherworld, which has already posed a certain threat to the Queen Mother Hou Tu who is sleeping in the Netherworld.

Therefore, when those Daluo were investigating the mysteries of the underworld, the remaining four Ghost Emperors also landed in the four directions of the underworld, keeping an eye on these Daluo, lest they lose control of themselves and try to spy on the sleeping Queen Hou Tu.

And this is also the source of the Central Ghost Emperor's dissatisfaction with Ao Bing.

Even if those Daluo who fell here had no hostility, their existence already posed a natural threat to the sleeping Queen Hou Tu.

"The Heavenly Rule appeared out of nowhere, causing a turmoil in the world."

"Now, countless people between heaven and earth are watching the movements of you, the Great Lord of Justice, and trying to figure out your words and deeds."

"Why are you here in the netherworld instead of staying in the heaven?"

"Why, do you want to investigate our ghosts and gods in the underworld before impeaching the gods in heaven?" asked the Central Ghost Emperor.

"Your Majesty, you are too kind." Ao Bing also said, "The ghosts and gods in the netherworld will naturally not have any problems."

Even if all the gods and immortals in heaven have problems, the ghosts and gods in the underworld will definitely not have problems - in terms of integrity, no one between heaven and earth can compare with the ghosts and gods in the underworld.

This is not to say that the ghosts and gods in the underworld are very disciplined in their behavior, but because, over countless years, the underworld has been subject to the most restrictions between heaven and earth.

Many Daluo, with countless eyes, were staring at Netherworld. Whenever Netherworld made the slightest mistake, someone would immediately rush forward to break the control of Netherworld's ghosts and gods over Netherworld.

In such a situation, the underworld is still firmly controlled by the ghosts and gods of the underworld, and no one is allowed to interfere. This is enough to prove the reliability of the ghosts and gods of the underworld.

"I am here to ask Your Majesty for two things." Ao Bing slowed down his voice.

"The Heavenly Court is currently constructing a prison to detain the Qigong practitioners who have violated the precepts."

"And the Netherworld is also responsible for punishing those sinful souls. Therefore, I want to build a hell in the Netherworld to imprison those sinful souls. This can not only separate them from ordinary souls, but also prevent them from causing any trouble when they are punished in the Netherworld."

"There is an abyss to the west of the underworld, where you can create hell." The Central Ghost Emperor thought for a moment and agreed to Ao Bing's first request.

"The second thing I came here for is to get the manpower from the Temple of the Great Lord of Justice." Ao Bing spoke again.

"Your Majesty also knows that the Great Lord of Justice patrols the world to investigate lawlessness, and he needs countless patrolling angels - these patrolling angels are the foundation of the Heavenly Law."

"If something goes wrong with these angel patrollers, there will probably be many false cases and wrongful convictions under that law."

"Now, there are countless people in the world who can't do anything to me, but want to take advantage of the patrolling angel."

"So, I want to ask for some manpower from the Netherworld to serve as my angel patrollers."

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I will not click on those ghosts and gods in the netherworld who have no time to escape."

"However, in the netherworld, there are countless souls - especially those in the soul consumable system. I don't know how many people have been harmed by others, but because their life spans have not yet ended, it is difficult for them to enter reincarnation, and they can only stay in this netherworld."

"Those who are ignorant and confused are fine - but there are always some souls who can regain their sanity in the underworld."

"I think these souls are also a nuisance to the Netherworld - if we ignore them, they are full of resentment and we are afraid they will cause trouble in the Netherworld. If we care about them, we don't know how to do it."

"Junior, I came here for these souls."

"In my opinion, they are the best candidates for the Patrol Angels."

"Most of them were born from slaves and were artificially conceived. They have few parents or friends in the human world, and almost no blood ties. In the immortal way, they have no interest in any sects or schools."

“They don’t have the position they had at the beginning, and they have fewer opportunities to be scrutinized.”

"Compared to other Qigong practitioners, they are less likely to be involved in personal relationships."

Ao Bing talked about his considerations on these souls.

As for the formations and so on that test these souls, Jiejiao can naturally provide corresponding support.

"So you are here to snatch people from the Netherworld." The Central Ghost Emperor looked at Ao Bing.

Under the system of the underworld, many ghosts and gods have the same origin - after arriving in the underworld, the souls that still maintain their own sanity have a certain probability of being able to cultivate the underworld Qi under the surge of the Yin and Ming Qi, embark on the path of cultivation, and then become ghosts and gods in the underworld and become a supplement to the underworld system.

At the same time, some tired ghosts and gods in the underworld are able to put aside their duties, live in seclusion somewhere in the underworld, or directly devote themselves to reincarnation.

Otherwise, if there were no souls to supplement and rotate, with the Netherworld being watched by countless eyes and having to perform their duties conscientiously and not dare to make even the slightest mistake, who knows how many ghosts and gods would collapse.

"Your Majesty, the positions of the Netherworld are limited after all. For those countless souls to have one more path is also a manifestation of the virtue of the Netherworld."

"In that case, I will take you to see those souls. As for whether they are willing to go with you, that has nothing to do with me."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your mercy." Ao Bing nodded quickly to express his gratitude.

So, the Central Ghost Emperor immediately pushed away the fog of the underworld and appeared in a city at the foot of the mountain with Ao Bing.

In the underworld, it is inevitable that some souls will regain consciousness.

And those souls that have regained their sanity will not mingle with those ignorant wandering souls, but will live somewhere else.

As time went by, these souls that regained consciousness, generation after generation, built a few scattered cities in the underworld.

Outside these scattered cities, the ghosts and gods in the underworld also built a city specifically for those souls that were harmed by the consumption of soul materials, separating them from ordinary souls to prevent the grudges in the world of the living from being involved in the underworld.

"All the victims of the soul consumption incident, including the souls that have regained their wisdom and the baby ghosts that have awakened from the Queen's dream, are here." The Central Ghost Emperor fell into the city.

In the city, there are tall gloomy trees that absorb and exhale endless dark energy, nourishing the origin of these souls.

Seeing the Central Ghost Emperor falling, the many ghosts also surrounded him.

"This person is the Great Lord of Justice in the Heavenly Court. It is all thanks to the great Lord that you have been able to escape from the fate of being consumables."

"Now, the Great Lord intends to select talents from among you to serve as patrol angels, upholding the laws of heaven and investigating lawlessness in all directions."

"If you are interested, please come to the judge and register your name. The judge will send you to heaven and take the test at the residence of the Great Lord of Justice."

The Central Ghost Emperor simply and clearly stated Ao Bing's identity and purpose.

Then, countless eyes fell on Ao Bing, penetrating deep into his soul.

There was gratitude in those eyes, but more than that, there was resentment.
