Soul-drawing Pill

"Yes, you're right." Ji Lingwen continued," It happened so suddenly. At that time, a small portion of the ghosts had already been destroyed by the War God, but there were still some ghosts who took advantage of the chaos to escape."

"There are too many of them. The Immortal Realm has limited manpower, so it's impossible to clear out so many ghosts at once. You also know that some ghosts are on par with the Martial Gods of the Immortal Realm, so it's quite troublesome to deal with them."

" If we reverse the time and space in the human world, the people will return to where they were two years ago. They won't gather here for a while. The ghosts have just escaped from the Underworld and their consciousness is chaotic. It will take some time to find the living. The priests have a scent that attracts them. In this way, they will find trouble with the priests first instead of the living. We can take the opportunity to get rid of them before causing more casualties in the human world."

Speaking of this, Ji Lingwen's head began to ache.

He loosened his hands from his sleeves and massaged his temples, feeling a headache from the upcoming workload.

Mu Xingran understood that this was indeed a compromise.

" Can't we let the Underworld handle this? Isn't it easy for them to subdue ghosts?" Mu Xingran asked matter-of-factly.

The Underworld was different from the Immortal Realm. Apart from having powerful spiritual power, the Divine Lords and the Divine Priests had to be reasonable. However, there were countless ghosts in the Underworld, and the strong were respected. Whoever had the stronger fist would speak. There was no need to pay attention to any rules. If you could win, you were the rule.

Therefore, the Netherworld often fought to the death for the position of Ming Zun. To be able to sit firmly in Ming Zun's position, one must be the strongest of the strong. As long as he gave the order, the ghosts would obediently submit no matter how unwilling they were.

As long as he discussed with Lord Netherworld and let him give orders, these ghosts that had escaped could only obediently scram back!

Although the Divine Realm and the Underworld seemed to be opposing each other, it was not an exaggeration to say that they were partners.

After all, if the human world was not doing well, the three worlds would not be balanced. No one would have a good ending.

Moreover, it was their responsibility to let the ghosts run out. It was only natural that they were responsible for taking them back.

"You just arrived, so you don't know." "The one from the Netherworld hasn't been in charge for a long time," Ji Lingwen sighed.

Ji Ling frowned. He felt that he had used the wrong words and corrected himself." No, that person from the Netherworld, ever since he became the Ghost King, he has never been in charge. The ones in charge are his two assistants. But now, I don't know where these two assistants are. That's why the Netherworld is in chaos, and these ghosts have an opportunity to escape."

"Watt? How could he play like this as a Ming Zun? I see that we Divine Lords are as busy as a dog every day…No, we're so busy that we can't see each other every day. Is there such a big difference?"

Ji Lingwen rolled his eyes." It's precisely because the Netherworld doesn't care that the Immortal Realm is so busy!"

" Their mess still needs our Divine Realm to clean up. Don't you feel angry?!"

Speaking of this, Ji Lingwen became spirited and very emotional." Have you seen our Martial God? Every day, they are either dealing with ghosts or on the way to deal with ghosts. There's no need to talk about Divine Lords. Other than managing the small and large matters of the Divine Realm, they still need him to do things that the Martial God can't do or collect souls that can't be collected. How can he not be busy?"

Busy!

He was really too busy!

How could a Divine Lord endure such days?

In Mu Xingran's eyes, the life of a salted fish was the way to go. She would never stand if she could sit and would never work if she could rest. This was her life's purpose.

Therefore, she couldn't help but sympathize with the Divine Lord. The Divine Lord's face immediately appeared in her mind. At this moment, he had turned into a pitiful old man with tears in his eyes. It was especially heartbreaking.

Mu Xingran sighed." From the sound of it, it's better to be a Dark Lord. You can live freely and willfully. You don't have to care about anything."

It was simply enviable!

No wonder so many ghosts were fighting for this position.

"Silly!" Ji Lingwen sneered and looked disdainful." Do you think that seat is so easy to sit in? There are countless ghosts trying to pull him down every day. It's not uncommon to see cunning and cunning in the ghost realm. It's tiring to hear it."

" To be able to become Ming Zun, he must be cruel, bloodthirsty, cold-blooded, and scheming. Everything is about profit. How could he be so kind as to help us? Even if he was willing to help, we can't find him now. We should rely on ourselves."

Mu Xingran blinked. Her eyelashes were long and thick like a pair of fans. She asked in confusion," Can't find her? Was it killed by another ghost?"

"Probably not." Ji Lingwen shook his head." When a new Ming Zun is born, the earth and mountains will definitely shake, the weather will change, and the Three Realms will be shaken. Now, everything has been peaceful, which proves that Ming Zun has not changed his master."

" Furthermore, Divine Lord once said that Ming Zun is the strongest he has ever seen. He told us to avoid him even if we see him. It won't be easy to replace him."

Mu Xingran nodded, indicating that she understood.

Perhaps it was because there were too many ghosts looking for him to fight, so he didn't have time to care.

However, the matters of the Netherworld had always been a mystery to the Immortal Realm. As for Ming Zun's whereabouts, it was even more impossible to find out.

Sigh, it's not easy to be a god, nor is it easy to be a ghost. It's better to be a salted fish, Mu Xingran thought.

"How come you know nothing about the Lord of the Underworld? What was the Underworld Lord like in your era?" Ji Lingwen asked in confusion.

" In my era…" Mu Xingran threw away the leaf in her hand and said with nostalgia," Our Immortal Realm governs the Three Realms. Even the Underworld is under the control of the Immortal Realm. Everyone has their own duties and is very relaxed. Usually, they play games, chat, and drink tea when they have nothing to do. It's not like here. Being an immortal is like being a dog. There are a lot of things to do."

Ji Lingwen was shocked." That good?!" Are you lying to me? Ming Zun is such a proud person, how could he return to the Divine World?"

He had never even thought about this. Even if he did, he would laugh at himself for being whimsical!

It was already good enough that the Immortal Realm and the Netherworld did not fight!

Mu Xingran shrugged." I don't know about that. After all, when I ascended, it was already a peaceful era. I didn't know what happened before that."

She didn't even remember how she ascended, so how could she have the mood to understand the history of the past?

" Besides, we are so far apart in time and space, so our thinking will improve. Perhaps in a certain generation, the Divine Lord and Ming Zun will suddenly be enlightened and unite to coexist peacefully."

"That's true." Ji Lingwen was the God of Culture, so he was more open-minded than the other priests. Even if he couldn't accept this point of view, he didn't deny it. He picked up a stone and threw it into the distance." I heard from the other Martial Gods that the Divine Lord has found a suitable successor and is preparing to nurture him. Soon, there will be a great change in the Divine Realm."

Mu Xingran replied with an "oh", her interest waning.

She wasn't interested in who would become the Divine Lord. She just wanted the Rain Master of this time and space to come back as soon as possible so that she could return to the 21st century to play games.

To be honest, the ancient gods were really boring. They didn't even have a game to play, and she couldn't adapt.

"By the way, you haven't told me why you're looking for me?" Mu Xingran returned to the main topic." Is there anything I can help you with?"

Since she was the cause of the disaster, she could not count on the Netherworld anymore. Mu Xingran naturally had to take responsibility.

"Yes." Ji Ling and Mu Xingran chatted for a while, and the anger in his heart dissipated a little. He was no longer so eccentric. He took out a small black porcelain bottle from his sleeve, poured out a pill, and handed it to her." Take this."

Mu Xingran took it but did not put it into her mouth. Instead, she raised it in front of her eyes and sized it up." What is this?"

The pill was only the size of an index finger. It was milky white and glistened with spiritual light. It was more exquisite than modern white chocolate.

Although she knew that Ji Ling wouldn't harm her, she didn't have the habit of stuffing food into her mouth.

"Soul Guiding Pill." Ji Ling explained," The Divine Lord has consumed too much spiritual energy to close the Nether Cave and reverse time and space. His vitality has been greatly damaged and he is currently cultivating in seclusion. This is an immortal pill that he refined before he came out of seclusion. Before he comes out of seclusion, every Divine Official has to contribute to the soul-capturing process. This immortal pill is to help the Divine Officials find the ghosts better."
