With a sway of his body, Jiang Chen's figure left the meeting hall and came to a huge square.
This square, located halfway up the mountain, is a natural stone platform with a large area that can accommodate tens of thousands of people.
Before Jiang Chen came here, more than three hundred disciples from the Shangqing lineage had already gathered here, silently waiting for Jiang Chen's arrangements.
Zhang Heng and others had already prepared the altar that Jiang Chen needed. It was made of fine white jade. It was exceptionally transparent and glowed with a gleaming light. You could tell at a glance that it was not an ordinary thing.
In front of the altar, there is a cauldron. It is none other than the heaven and earth oven that Jiang Chen refined with the power of heaven and earth.
On the altar, there is a statue enshrined, not Empress Houtu, but her incarnation, Emperor Houtu, one of the four emperors.
Empress Houtu has been in hiding for many years, and there are almost no legends about her in the three realms. Jiang Chen could not find her statue, so he had to settle for the next best thing and worship her incarnation.
However, the problem is not big. The incarnation is an extension of the body. There is not much difference between worshiping the incarnation and worshiping the body. On both sides of the statue, there are two treasures, namely the Netherworld Flag and the Savior Lamp.
The key to whether Jiang Chen can successfully send ghosts into reincarnation lies in Empress Houtu and these two magic weapons. Not to mention the Netherworld Flag and the Savior Lamp, both are treasures of the ghost realm.
Then Tu Niangniang, the six realms of reincarnation were created by her body, and she is the real master of reincarnation. As long as you get her consent, it is not easy to open the reincarnation channel and send those ghosts into reincarnation.
Therefore, Jiang Chen worshiped Empress Houtu this time, not the Sage of the Supreme Purity. In matters of reincarnation, Empress Houtu was obviously more professional.
Even if Daozu came in person, he could not compare to Houtu Empress.
Glancing at the disciples below with his peripheral vision, Jiang Chen nodded with satisfaction and said, "Today I have a great merit that I want to share with you. Are you willing to lend a helping hand to me?"
When the disciples below heard this, they didn't know what great merit it was, but they thought that since the Patriarch said this, it must be a good thing, so they ordered back: "Disciples are willing to help the Patriarch."
After receiving a positive reply, Jiang Chen then ordered: "You are here to recite the Sutra of Saving People to help the poor achieve success."
After saying that, Jiang Chen turned around and faced the altar, and saw that he first used the power of his merits to light a lamp to save people. Then, he took out three long incense sticks from the storage vessel to save people. The light of the lamp was lit and inserted into the oven of heaven and earth.
Finally, Jiang Chen bowed three times to the statue of Queen Houtu, and then picked up the Netherworld flag on the other side of the statue.
At this time, all the disciples had followed Jiang Chen's instructions and chanted the Sutra of Savior in unison. The faint sound of the Tao echoed among the green mountains, as if it had resonated with heaven and earth.
After reciting the sutra a hundred times, Jiang Chen seemed to feel that the time had come. He exerted force on his hand, and the Netherworld Flag immediately bloomed with faint divine light. Immediately, ghosts flew out from it, either standing in the void or standing in the sky. On the top of the mountain.
In an instant, the temperature in Qingcheng Mountain dropped a lot, as if it had entered a cold autumn. The temperature was so low that it made people shiver inexplicably.
Billions of ghosts appeared together, and the vast Yin Qi was so terrifying. That is to say, the living people on the mountain were all monks, who had cultivated their bodies, and had recited the Sutra to Save People a hundred times, gaining the power of heaven and earth.
of blessing.
Otherwise, if you are hit by this powerful Yin Qi, even if you don't die, you will still get seriously ill, your foundation will be damaged, and your lifespan will be greatly reduced.
After all the ghosts appeared, Jiang Chen once again bowed to the statue of Queen Houtu and said: "Your Majesty, the monk from the lower world, Jiang Chen, has something to report. There is chaos in the Netherworld today, and there are evil ghosts who are causing harm to the world.
Billions of ghosts are stranded in the human world, unable to reincarnate."
"That's why Jiang Chen begs the Queen to show mercy and open the reincarnation passage to send these innocent ghosts to reincarnate."
"The empress is merciful, Jiang Chen pays my respects."
The sincere voice, accompanied by the curls of green smoke, rose into the void and reached an unknown place, where Empress Houtu practiced practice.
Immediately, Jiang Chen felt that an incomparable will came down, and the statue of Houtu Empress in front of him was completely different, as if it had come to life.
A pair of eyes filled with great love and compassion emerged from the statue. They first glanced at Jiang Chen, and then looked at the ghosts all over the mountains and plains.
Huh~~huh~~
Inexplicably, a wind blew up from the mountains, bringing with it a whistling sound.
Then, the void here actually became distorted, and countless rules emerged, mysterious and mysterious, twisting together with the void.
Gradually, a huge, dark vortex appeared, exuding a mysterious atmosphere. This is the reincarnation passage, the reincarnation passage opened by Queen Houtu herself. It is ancient and mysterious.
Rumble!
The vortex rotates, emitting a huge suction force, rolling up the boundless wind and clouds, sucking in all the hundreds of millions of dead souls on Qingcheng Mountain, and then reincarnated.
There is no need to drink Meng Po soup to reincarnate through this reincarnation channel. There is a mysterious power of reincarnation flowing in the channel, which can wash away all memories and ensure that the memories of these ghosts are as clean as a piece of white paper before reincarnation.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Jiang Chen gradually felt relieved. With Empress Houtu taking action, even if the problem of hundreds of millions of ghosts was solved, he would also gain a fortune.
The merit that can be obtained by helping hundreds of millions of ghosts reincarnate is not small.
…
…………
As time passes, there are fewer and fewer ghosts on Qingcheng Mountain. The number has increased from hundreds of millions to millions. It is estimated that they will all enter reincarnation in a short time.
But Jiang Chen looked at it and felt something was wrong. He suddenly discovered that there were a group of ghosts who were resisting the power of reincarnation and unwilling to be reincarnated.
Empress Hou Tu is compassionate and will not force others. Since these ghosts are unwilling to reincarnate, Empress Hou Tu will not force them.
After being lured three times, these ghosts were still unwilling to enter the reincarnation passage, so Empress Houtu ignored them and allowed them to stay in the human world.
Looking at the ghosts resisting the power of reincarnation, Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows. There was even more anger in his heart. People are dead, why should they be so attached to the world? Wouldn't it be better to reincarnate earlier and start all over again?
But he was angry, and Jiang Chen still couldn't say a word after all. It's normal for ghosts not to be reincarnated. It has been around since ancient times. Otherwise, where did so many ghosts in the Netherworld come from?
?
Aren't it just those ghosts who don't want to be reincarnated, who make the underworld their home and live there?
As for why these ghosts do not want to be reincarnated, there are many reasons. They may be attached to the human world, have obsessions, or cannot let go of certain old things, etc.
