Among the five ghost emperors in the underworld, only the central ghost emperor is the most special.
Because there are two palaces of Yama controlled by the central ghost emperor, one is responsible for the entrance of living souls, and the other is responsible for reincarnation.
It can be said that the authority of the Central Ghost Emperor can already complete the entire process of a living being's death and reincarnation.
The other links that were added were all forcibly added in order to disperse the authority of the Central Ghost Emperor.
This is also why among the five ghost emperors, only the central ghost emperor can remain neutral.
In other words, if the central ghost emperor has taken refuge with one side, even if the other side has the support of three ghost emperors, it will not have much confidence.
The neutrality of the Central Ghost Emperor is the greatest guarantee for peace in the underworld.
Once the Central Ghost Emperor shows a tendency to take sides, things will become complicated.
The underworld is not only the underworld of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and Taishan Empress, but also the underworld under the management of heaven.
And these two elders are also related in the fairy world.
Taishan Empress is the daughter of Emperor Dongyue, and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is the World Honored One of Buddhism, whose status in Buddhism is only lower than that of the Holy Lord Buddha.
But if you think that Buddhism will support Ksitigarbha and Taoism will support Empress Taishan, you are wrong again.
The factional struggle in the Heavenly Court is also very complicated. Several Heavenly Emperors form alliances and form factions. They only want to weaken Emperor Dongyue's power and will definitely not help him.
The same is true in Buddhism. There is a Holy Lord and a World Honored One, so there is naturally a competitive relationship between the two.
Under the interlocking forces of many parties, the underworld is actually very peaceful.
There are many minor conflicts, but there are basically no major conflicts.
Taishan Empress and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva have a common tacit understanding. The underworld can cause trouble, but it must not cause chaos, let alone beat each other to death.
If it really comes to that point, it will be of no benefit to anyone.
It's best to maintain this 50-50 situation.
Of course, on the surface, the people under his command are fighting openly and secretly to win over the two Yamas under the Central Ghost Emperor.
But if the Central Ghost Emperor really wants to surrender, they may not dare to accept him.
Closer to home, the Central Ghost Emperor is so special, which is why Empress Taishan wanted to arrange for Lin Yi to attack the Central Ghost Emperor.
First, according to her understanding, the Central Ghost Emperor is a confidant of the Great Heavenly Lord, and his presence will pose a great threat to Ji Yi.
Secondly, only if Lin Yi clears the line of the Central Ghost Emperor will he have a way out in the future.
In other words, if he loses this battle, he might be able to use the same method to escape.
Of course, this method can only be used once and for all, and the gods in heaven are not fools. It is very difficult for the same trick to be effective a second time.
But there is no other way.
The third point is also the most important point.
The Reincarnation Hall under the jurisdiction of the Central Ghost Emperor is the most mysterious place. It was originally directly under the jurisdiction of Empress Houtu. It was only after Empress Houtu fell into a deep sleep that it was handed over to the hands of the Central Ghost Emperor.
If Lin Yi can find a way to steal the power of reincarnation, he might be able to retrieve some memories of his past life.
Empress Taishan can see that Ji Yi has not recovered his past memories at all, and he is still too weak now.
Past memories cannot bring strength to Ji Yi, but they can provide him with some experience, such as how to deal with immortals at different levels.
Ji Yi's current methods are still a bit too crude. How can that kind of blood-burning secret technique be used lightly?
Empress Taishan only lamented that she pushed too hard. If not, Ji Yi would not be so impulsive.
But she had no choice but to do it. She was already being targeted for what she did last time. If she didn't clean herself up this time, she would definitely be in trouble in the future.
There are too many things involved with her, so how can she act completely willfully?
In this case, Lin Yi can only be wronged.
Empress Taishan continued to observe secretly, and she did do some tricks on Ling Yi, but it was just an insurance method. If it really encountered a fatal danger, the method would be triggered.
Of course, this is controlled by Empress Taishan. Therefore, through something on Ling Yi, she can observe Lin Yi's movements in real time.
Ling Yi thought that Ji Yi had heard a brief introduction to the story and would ask her to elaborate.
Who would have thought that Lin Yi was so guilty that he would never dare to listen again.
The situation is quite serious right now, so let’s listen to it next time.
He was afraid that if he listened again, Ling Yi would point the finger at him.
This is called emergency evacuation.
"Let's be careful and stop talking on the road."
Zero One: "..."
Are you scared?
Empress Taishan was also observing. Not long after Lin Yi and Ling Yi left, they encountered a group of people searching. This group was the direct descendants of Empress Taishan. They searched very seriously, and there was also a palace of Yama who personally led the team.
.
Lin Yi, it’s dangerous!
His biggest dilemma is not that he cannot defeat others, but that once he fights, he will fall into endless hardships.
The support of Hades is endless.
It depends on whether Ji Yi can withstand it!
At this moment, Empress Taishan was more nervous than Lin Yi. However, Lin Yi and Ling Yi easily passed through the defense line and nothing happened.
"He actually has such strong concealment skills?"
Empress Taishan also breathed a sigh of relief.
Now it seems that with his strength, those Yama and Ghost Emperor should be feared.
Empress Taishan guessed correctly. At this time, the King of Hell in the Yama Palace felt uneasy.
He was really frightened in that battle a few days ago.
Lin Yi's madman was so terrifying that he could kill the god in the blink of an eye. If the World Honored Ksitigarbha and Taishan Empress hadn't come over, his Yama Palace would have suffered a serious blow.
Now I don’t know what tricks Lin Yi used to escape from the empress’ hands, and even made the empress furious.
If Ji Yi is so capable, what can he do?
But this was the decree issued by Empress Taishan herself in anger, and he could not do nothing.
In this case, let the people under you do the work!
A dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist, let alone some of his subordinates. They can be recruited again after they are gone.
He is the most core person in Yama Palace.
After figuring it out, Yama summoned many subordinates and read out the decree of Empress Taishan.
"Empress Taishan ordered us to capture Lin Yi, the murderer who broke into the underworld. I think you have combat experience with Lin Yi and should know him better. I will leave this matter to you. What do you think? Do you have confidence?"
"..."
In the Hall of Yama, there was complete silence.
The few handsome men who were still alive didn't expect that they would confront Ji Yi again so soon.
The last time he went on a killing spree with a sword, it was at Guimenguan's home ground, where all the top ten sinister commanders were present.
In that situation, Lin Yi killed them like pigs and easily killed several evil commanders under their noses. Now that they are defeated and have lost their spirit, how can they fight against Lin Yi?
Yama also asked them if they had faith. I have the faith of your ancestors!
It's a pity that they are in the system, and the subordinates cannot resist the superiors. No matter how many complaints they have in their hearts, they cannot scold their immediate superiors at this moment.
The Ghost King had no choice but to shirk the blame and said: "Please forgive me Lord Yan. The Demon Envoy is the best at killing, but the four great Demon Envoys were all defeated by Lin Yi. This thief is so fierce that we cannot match him."
In this regard, the Ghost King was very straightforward. When faced with the choice of life or face, he simply chose face.
Other Yin Shuai also agreed. After playing one game with Ji Yi, they really didn’t want to play a second game.
Especially the bull-headed horse-faced ones, both of them had come from the brink of death. If the Ghost King had not come quickly to plead for mercy and the Empress of Mount Tai had not arrived in time, both of them would have died.
This time, I didn’t want to go at all.
"Please tell me, Mr. Yan."
The other shady men all had the same attitude, and King Yama was unhappy.
He said it as if he wasn't afraid in the first place. If he hadn't run so fast, how could he have invited Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva!
"Do you think that I am willing to watch you die? Do you think that the loss of several beloved generals will not hurt my heart?
But this is your Majesty’s will, how can I violate it?”
King Yama made an angry accusation and threw all the blame on Empress Taishan.
It's Empress Taishan who doesn't care about her subordinates, not him!
And these subordinates actually misunderstood him. Isn't this excessive?
Seeing that everyone did not dare to refute, King Yama's tone became slightly more relaxed, and he sighed and said: "I can't bear for you to take risks, but there is no room for change in this matter."
"I would like to hear the instructions from Lord Yan."
The Yin commanders seemed to see hope, and upon seeing this, King Yama also smiled.
These subordinates are still obedient, but some of them still need to be eliminated from the team when they find the opportunity.
What is the use of subordinates who are not willing to die for him?
King Yama had a plan in his mind, and said: "The Queen's decree has spread throughout the underworld, and there will definitely be other ghost emperors, Yama and his troops, who will surround us. We may not be able to meet Lin Yi. In this case, there is no need for you to charge into the battle."
When you say this, the handsome men will understand.
Doesn’t this just tell them to be bastards and not to take themselves too seriously?
But Yama would definitely not say these words directly. Do you really think that Taishan Empress is gentle and kind and is easy to bully?
She has been in power for tens of thousands of years and has firmly inherited part of the power from her father. How can she be so helpless?
You can be a bastard, but you can't say it out loud.
This is the unspoken rule.
Seeing that his subordinates all agreed, King Yama pretended to be honest again: "We have suffered heavy losses before, and those who were good at fighting have also died. As long as you do your duty, the empress is kind, so I shouldn't blame you.
However, you must work diligently and not rush into battle, but you must also play your role and patrol for the empress, and do not allow Lin Yi to escape."
Just patrolling and setting up a blockade, without fighting Ji Yi head-on, this way the risk is much smaller.
Lin Yi is good at killing, so they just don't fight head-on.
Can't you run away even if you can't beat him?
Thinking about it this way, these handsome guys gained confidence again.
What's more, the underworld is so big, and there are ten Yamas who are searching for Lin Yi, so they won't just happen to run into him.
In order to reduce the probability of encountering him, the Ghost King's mind came to life again.
Lin Yi is not from this world. He was eager to return to the human world but failed to do so.
Now, he definitely still wants to return to the human world.
Then, the gate of hell is a hurdle that cannot be bypassed.
After thinking about it, the Ghost King suggested: "If we want to search for Lin Yi with all our strength, I'm afraid the defense at Guimen Pass will be lax.
Why don't we temporarily find other palace masters to second a few people to the ghost gate, and we can patrol elsewhere?"
The Ghost King's words also had a hidden meaning, and King Yama understood them immediately.
The gate of hell is the key.
Ji Ji will come to hell, he will definitely.
He didn't want to provoke Ji Yi, so he might as well switch defenses with others for the time being.
King Yama agreed and said: "You are right, our strength is severely damaged now, and it is difficult to do such an important thing.
We should do what is appropriate for us. I think it would be good to patrol the Exile Abyss.
Exile Abyss is not a good place, it may be a place with weak defenses."
Behind the words, he seemed to be trying to supplement the defense line, but he was actually telling everyone that Banishing Abyss should be very safe.
Ji Ji will never go to Banishing Abyss, right?
What is he going there for?
Where is the picture not a good place, surrounded by all kinds of resentments?
That’s it for the decision, it’s definitely safe to banish the abyss!
With the direction, everyone in Yama Luodian is united.
They quickly switched defenses with other Yan Jun and reported relevant matters to the superior.
Then the six Yin commanders of Yama Palace led a group of Yin soldiers and several judges to inspect the exile.
This posture can be said to be overwhelming.
Even judges who are not good at fighting joined the queue, which shows their seriousness.
King Yama's tricks are very clever.
He had caught the fish, mixed up the matter, and showed that he was doing his best.
In fact, the judge joined the team just to watch the fun.
In the Yama Hall, the priesthood is naturally divided into civil and military positions.
The military positions are the top ten Yin commanders. As combat units, their moral conduct is generally high.
The judge is a civilian, and the matters handled by civilians are particularly important. If they have strong strength, they can easily get something done.
Therefore, most of the judges' moral conduct is not high. Only the leader of the four major judges has a slightly higher moral conduct, but he can only be compared to the generals under Yin Shuai, and his moral conduct is no more than 500,000 years old.
Most judges only have less than 200,000 years of practice.
The four major judges are Wang Xie, Zhu Li, and they are in charge of the good judgment department, the evil punishment department, the Yin law department, and the inspection department.
Each of the four divisions has a number of judges, which are equivalent to clerks at all levels in the civil service.
They still work in shifts, so the number of judges is also large.
At this moment, the four great judges were also very depressed. Usually combat missions had nothing to do with them, but they were also pulled out this time.
But this was an order from Lord Yan, and it was based on the will of the Empress of Mount Tai, so they had no choice but to obey.
"Why do I always feel a little uneasy?"
Judge Wang, one of the four great judges, felt a little uneasy. He sensed a faint crisis.
Several other judges comforted them: "This is the Abyss of Exile. The obsessions left by evil ghosts who cannot enter reincarnation will also affect us invisibly. Don't worry too much. We are here just to supplement the defense line.
It’s nothing serious.”
Wang Pian thinks so, maybe it’s due to the hand environment.
He decisively wrapped himself with divine power to avoid interference from the outside world.
Sure enough, that feeling disappeared soon after.
"Okay, let's continue patrolling!"
The Yin Gods of the Hall of Hell were bustling in the Banishing Abyss. Lin Yi passed through many defenses and finally arrived here. Seeing this scene, he was suddenly shocked.
There is a master among the underworld gods! You can actually predict that he will come to banish Yuan!
Now that the secret has been deceived, the other party must have calculated it based on his own wisdom.
"After all, you underestimated the Yinsi gods."
Lin Yi was lurking in the dark, very nervous.
He had been lurking all the way over. When he killed the gills, no one was present, so no one realized that Lin Yi was not actually killing the gills head-on, but was good at sneak attacks.
Being able to hide from the perception of fish gills shows that his latent ability is not bad.
There are many gods with detective abilities in the underworld, but no one can activate this kind of detective power 24/7.
During this period, it was not that Ji Yi did not encounter a line of defense that had activated its detective powers. However, it was so outrageous that Ji Yi could see this kind of power.
The forms of these detective forces vary, some are like ripples, some are like spider webs, and some are like thin lines.
Although the methods are different, there is nothing to hide in Lin Yi's eyes.
He broke through the defense line with ease.
Zero One thought that they would definitely experience a fierce battle this time, but unexpectedly, not a single battle occurred along the way.
Ji Yi's latent ability is even better than that of a ghost like her.
But at this moment, Lin Yi suddenly stopped moving forward. There must be something wrong.
