Chapter 276 Book of Life and Death
At the same time, the merit and luck generated by judging these ghosts are enough to greatly increase the strength of the City God who judges them and his subordinate officials. A few can also give birth to several ghosts. A big Luo Jinxian.
Although there are many powerful people in the Netherworld, they are not gathered in one place, but are scattered in countless pure lands, large and small.
Therefore, in real terms, the strength of many Pure Lands is not very strong, and most of them are not enough to compete with Chenghuang Dao, which has several Da Luo Jinxian.
This means that after judging the tens of billions of ghosts in the God's Domain, the Chenghuang Dao's power has skyrocketed, and it is fully capable of sweeping all the surrounding pure lands.
The stronger the ghosts in the pure land are, the longer they stay in the netherworld, and the heavier their karma is, which is not tolerated by heaven.
If they could all be captured and tried by the City God, the benefits would be greater than trying tens of billions of ghosts.
Not only can the newly established Chenghuang Dao gain a firm foothold in the Netherworld, but it can also become the overlord of one party and shock all parties.
This move is not only strengthening the City God Road, but also establishing the Underworld. The so-called Yinsi is actually the product of the perfect evolution of the City God system. In other words, the City God system is the predecessor of the Yinsi system.
If the city god system spreads across the human world and wipes out all the pure lands, then the organization that governs all the city gods is a veritable underworld, controlling the order of the underworld and commanding hundreds of millions of ghosts.
"With the City God's Temple as the starting point, and step by step wiping out all the pure lands that are rooted in the Netherworld and affect the cycle of heaven and earth, we can establish the Yinsi to rule the Netherworld."
"Is this my path to become the Ghost Emperor of Fengdu?"< br>
Suddenly, Ao Bing realized something and knew how to take the next step. The city god system needs to be established, and ghost hunting must continue.
But the scope of the captured ghosts has expanded, and it is no longer limited to the ghosts who have just died, but also includes those old ghosts who stay in the Pure Land and are reluctant to be reincarnated.
They are the boss. If you catch them and put them on trial, the merit and luck you will receive will be countless times greater than that of ordinary ghosts.
If you want to establish the Yin Division and control the Netherworld in a short period of time, pacifying the Pure Land and capturing the old ghosts inside is undoubtedly the fastest way.
As Ao Bing thought before, first lay the city god system in the human world, and then in turn surround the netherworld. Although the underworld can also be established in the end, it will take longer, and it will also be incompatible with the pure land. A conflict occurs.
All the ghosts in the world have been captured by the City God's Temple. There is no progress in the pure land of the netherworld, and there will only be fewer and fewer ghosts in it.
Over time, even if no one takes action against them, they will slowly die out as time goes by.
It is a matter of life and death. Of course, these pure lands cannot sit still and wait for death. They will definitely resist.
And their resistance cannot be to cause chaos in the human world and kill countless creatures. It will alarm the heaven and be surrounded and suppressed by countless heavenly soldiers and generals.
So, it is more likely that they will take action against the Chenghuang Temple and recapture the ghosts captured by it.
Since there will be a confrontation sooner or later, and the result cannot be changed, then with Ao Bing's temperament, he must strike first and attack the Pure Land first, weakening its strength while strengthening his own strength.
In this way, when those pure lands in the Netherworld come to their senses and prepare to join forces to fight against the enemy, maybe Chenghuang Dao has grown into a behemoth and is not afraid of them joining forces.
"As the saying goes, accumulate food and slowly become king, it is not advisable to directly declare war on all the pure lands. For now, let's wipe out all the pure lands in the dragon domain first."
"Use some Arrancars to quietly eat away at the Netherworld, and slowly accumulate strength until you can compete with all the Pure Lands. Then it will not be too late to reveal your purpose."
After making a decision in my heart. Development strategy, Ao Bing began to take action.
From the major divine realms, select those with profound moral character and confer them the title of City God. Then, look for those with less moral character and confer them the title of City God's tributary officer, civil and military judge, or something like that.
Finally, find some evil ghosts who are powerful and willing to change, and recruit them as dark soldiers to capture and apprehend the ghosts.
The construction of the City God’s Temple was a perfect time to employ people. Although the evil ghost is hateful, he is really strong. Just practice it briefly and it will come in handy immediately, saving you a lot of trouble.
Therefore, Ao Bing decided to give these evil spirits a chance to reform. Let them become Yin soldiers and fight for the great cause of establishing the Yin Division.
Don’t think this is a good thing. The strength of the Pure Land is not weak, on the contrary, it is very strong. The weakest Pure Land has immortals sitting there. Its strength can be imagined.
And many pure lands exist for an extremely long time, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years, or even millions of years.
After such a long time, the background is no joke. As the main combat force of Chenghuang Dao, Yin soldiers must be at the forefront when fighting Pure Land.
This means that the Yin soldiers have the highest casualty rate.
Ao Bing made the evil spirits become Yin soldiers, claiming to give them a chance to reform, but in fact he made them cannon fodder. After a great battle, it is estimated that few evil spirits will survive.
Even if you are lucky and barely survive, it is meaningless.
Because the dispute between Chenghuang Dao and Pure Land cannot be ended in one or two battles, it must be an extremely long war, with countless battles taking ten thousand years as a unit.
No matter how lucky the evil ghost is, how long can it last in this endless war? Ten times a hundred times, or a thousand times? Sooner or later you are going to die, it's just a matter of sooner or later.
Of course, if there really is an evil ghost who can persist to the end, then Ao Bing can only call him awesome and give him a bright future.
After countless brutal battles, he survived in the end, had great luck, and was favored by heaven.
Even Heaven is optimistic about him, so what reason does Ao Bing have to make things difficult for him? It's just a future, just give it to him, he has the qualifications.
Recruiting evil ghosts as yin soldiers and making them cannon fodder can be regarded as using waste. In this way, when the cannon fodder is almost dead, regular Yin soldiers should be trained and ready to go on the battlefield.
......
The conditions for canonizing the city god are not only moral virtue, but also high popularity in the local area. Because only in this way can we convince the public, be heartily supported by the local people, and then gather the power of incense and aspiration.
He has no reputation, no reputation in the local area, even if he can be conferred the title of City God, how many people will believe him?
During the development of Dragon Territory, many laudable characters emerged, so there were many people with yin and virtue. Even with the condition of being very popular in the local area, there was no fear that there would not be enough city gods selected.
On the contrary, even if all the City God's Temples are closed, there are still a large number of ghosts with evil virtues who have not been resettled.
There are too many ghosts with yin virtues. The Netherworld Gods Ao Bing currently has is not enough. Even if one god can enthrone two gods, it is not enough. But it doesn't matter, Ao Bing has other places to place them. One is to serve as City God candidates, allowing them to continue to practice in the God's Domain.
Second, after the city god has judged all the ghosts, Ao Bing will take them all to visit Empress Houtu, and then we will make arrangements.
Don’t think that Ao Bing canonizes them as City Gods now. They will always be City Gods from now on, and there is an inspection period. If you don't perform well during the probation period, you will still be kicked off and replaced by someone else.
In addition, every once in a while, Ao Bing will send people to inspect the city god temples in various places to see if these city gods are fulfilling their duties and whether they are corrupt and bending the law.
If not, it will be recorded as a reference for promotion. If so, penalties will be imposed based on the severity of the consequences. It can range from being reprimanded to being sent to hell, where he will never be reincarnated.
The people sent to inspect the Chenghuang temples in various places cannot be white, they must also be gods. In this way, there will be many more god places to house the remaining ghosts.
If these divine positions are not enough, Ao Bing has another way. After these tens of billions of ghosts are judged, Ao Bing must personally escort them to the place of reincarnation.
The first is to prevent someone from plundering these ghosts along the way, and the second is to take the opportunity to visit Houtu Empress and transfer to her the ancestral witch essence and blood left by Gonggong.
In addition, sending ghosts into reincarnation also requires gods. If there is no god to maintain order, how can those ghosts go to the reincarnation passage that they should go to as they are judged by the judge?
If there is no god to watch over them, those ghosts will definitely flock to the top of the heaven and human realm, instead of going to the human and animal realm.
In addition, Ao Bing also wants to create eighteen levels of hell in the Netherworld. If there are no eighteen levels of hell, how can those evil spirits be punished?
Therefore, the eighteen levels of hell must be built. If not built, it will not be enough to eliminate the grievances of all living beings. After the eighteen levels of hell are built, they also need to be watched over by gods to prevent evil spirits from escaping.
All of these, together, there are quite a few god places, which is probably enough to house the remaining ghosts.
If it doesn't work, Ao Bing will pass down the method of ghosts and immortals, so that some ghosts with great yin virtues can take the path of yin spirits and become saints, without being burdened by incense, and instead seek a life of freedom.
No matter what happens, as long as he is virtuous, Ao Bing will not treat them badly and will definitely arrange a good future for them.
Not so, it is not enough to do good.
Only by letting the world know that those who do good will really benefit after death. People in this world will try their best to do good deeds during their lifetime in the hope that their lives will be a little easier after death. Or in the next life, give birth to a better child.
......
Although Ao Bing is only one person, he divided his spiritual thoughts and manifested thousands of incarnations. He appeared in various major divine realms at the same time and performed the act of becoming a god.
Therefore, in just one day, all the city gods of thousands of cities in the Dragon Domain have been canonized.
Next, these city gods recruited subordinate officials and Yin soldiers to form yamen.
Naturally, Ao Bing does not need to do these small things himself. He only needs to pass down the rules and regulations, and the rest will naturally be handled by the City God himself.
Therefore, in the next period of time, Cheng Huang, who had just taken office, began to be busy with the establishment of the Yamen.
During this period, Ao Bing was not idle either. He discovered the most fatal flaw of the City God system and is now thinking of ways to solve the problem.
If this matter cannot be solved, then his so-called City God system is a big joke and has no effect.
The biggest shortcoming of the City God system is that there is no book of life and death and no judge's pen. Without the book of life and death, it is impossible to check the origin of life and death; without the judge's pen, it is impossible to determine the origin of life and death.
The standard equipment of the City God, in addition to its own authority, is the secondary book of the Book of Life and Death and the clone of the Judge's Pen.
Hold the book of life and death in your hand to observe life and death. Holding a judge's pen, he takes people's lives.
Without a book of life and death, even the city god does not know when the people in his jurisdiction should die or when they should not die.
Normally, the life span of a mortal is one hundred and twenty years, but most people do not live to this age. The main reason is that the book of life and death stipulates how many years each person can live.
This age is not randomly determined, but is calculated based on one's contribution to the world. The more you contribute, the longer your life will be, and vice versa.
The book of life and death stipulates how many years you will live, then you can only live how many years. If you don't die then, some evil will come to capture your soul.
This is the role of the Book of Life and Death on the City God. Only by mastering the Book of Life and Death can the City God send his messengers to arrest people's souls. If there is no book of life and death, the city god can only wait for the person's natural life to run out and die of old age, and then send a messenger to arrest the soul.
You can wait until he dies of old age, that will be very inefficient. Looking at the whole world, how many mortals can live for a hundred years? The lifespan is shortened from one hundred and twenty years to one hundred years, or even lower, and the number of souls bound will inevitably increase.
For the City God, this is performance. If you keep one more ghost, you will get more merit and luck. Who doesn't like it?
At the same time, both the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen have the ability to restrain the soul and can greatly protect the safety of the City God. This is another benefit.
In short, without the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen without the City God, Ao Bing had to get them out no matter what.
But how to do it is a problem. Like other prehistoric novels, you only need to make an oath and wait for God to give you something, which obviously doesn't work here.
If Tiandao was willing to give the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen, He had already given them to him when Ao Bing offered sacrifices to Tiandao and explained the idea of the underworld to him, so why wait until now.
Obviously, either Heavenly Dao is unwilling to give it, or these two treasures are not innate treasures, not even Heavenly Dao, but are refined the day after tomorrow.
"Refined the day after tomorrow..."
After muttering something in a low voice, Ao Bing seemed to have thought of something and suddenly took out the Dragon Domain book and placed it firmly in front of him.
If the Book of Life and Death is really refined the day after tomorrow, then who is most likely to be transformed into the Book of Life and Death in this world, it must be the Book of Life and Death, not to mention the Book of Life and Death.
As the book continues to advance, its function will be no different from the book of life and death. We can see the origins, lifespans, blessings and misfortunes of all spirits...
"It is said that the book of life and death is a human book among the three books of heaven, earth and man, recording the life, death, misfortunes and blessings of all spirits. But it is both a human book and a record of all spirits. How can life and death be an innate thing? "
Ao Bing suddenly realized that he had fallen into a misunderstanding. Who said that the book of life and death must be an innate spiritual treasure, and it cannot be an acquired treasure, a treasure of luck?
Innate creatures are born with endless lifespan. Since the death of a creature is recorded in the book of life and death, the innate creatures are obviously not included in it.
Therefore, the book of life and death does not record the innate nature, but only the acquired souls. And how can a magic weapon that remembers the day after tomorrow be an innate spiritual treasure? It must be an acquired treasure that inherits the fate of humanity.
