My construction materials are weird

#539 - Five Ghosts Moving

“Difficulty must also be overcome. Actually, one can enter the Second Order without undergoing tribulation, but do you agree, monk?” asked Chu Jiang of the Daoist sect.

“It is not so; this humble monk is merely lamenting,” replied Monk Lunzeng.

Whether a ghost cultivator enters Transcendent or the Second Order, they must undergo tribulations.

The tribulations that test them are the Netherworld Lightning Tribulations set by Xuan Huang. The 'Myriad Tribulation Yin Spirit Divine Lightning Scripture' is such a cultivation method that has tribulation trials for every major level, even from the early stage of the First Order to the middle stage of the First Order.

But if Xuan Huang were to remove the lightning tribulations, they would be unwilling.

Each lightning tribulation is a hardship, but it is also an opportunity. As long as they survive the lightning tribulation, whether in essence or magic power, they will have a chance to break out of their cocoons and transform into butterflies.

There is an energy within the lightning tribulation that they call fortune.

Lightning tribulation itself is fortune. All of Xuan Huang's methods are based on the system of refining falsehood into truth, starting with setting a goal and a scene.

Regardless of whether the initial settings are useful or not, as long as they develop according to the expected path, they will definitely be realized. This is what Xuan Huang has always been doing.

He is not boasting, because all the boasts he has made have come true.

Indeed, everything is progressing according to his expectations, and this is refining falsehood into truth.

Xuan Huang is not ignorant of the power of fortune. The three profound mysteries he condensed in the Third Order are reincarnation, fortune, and the return to nothingness. Adding some of his insights to the lightning tribulation is still possible.

It is difficult to achieve in the main world, after all, the cultivation base is still very low. Even after becoming a king in the Fourth Order, he can only realize these profound mysteries and laws within his own domain.

But the Purgatory is different. After all, it is the internal space of his own supreme treasure, and he can completely add the profound mysteries of fortune, reincarnation, and return to nothingness.

The ghost cultivators' feeling is correct. After surviving the lightning tribulation, there is indeed a power of fortune that transforms and reshapes them.

And the source of these powers of fortune comes precisely from the ghost cultivators who failed the tribulation. Their sacrifice forged fortune.

Strictly speaking, this is a place for raising Gu.

The strong obtain fortune, and the losers become fortune.

Tribulation is the most important thing for ghost cultivators in the underworld, different from the yang world.

Especially the four super ghost cultivators, who are already at the limit of the First Order, but they are not confident in surviving the Second Order lightning tribulation, so they dare not break through rashly.

Suddenly.

A voice, "Gather, all ghost cultivators!"

Alarmed all the ghost cultivators, especially the four super ones.

"Ah, it's the Dao Lord, the Dao Lord is summoning us."

The four ghost cultivators did not dare to hesitate and rushed to the main peak, the underworld reflection of Qingyun Mountain that they established.

When a group of ghost cultivators arrived at the main hall of the main peak, they suspected they were seeing things. Was this fooling ghosts?

No, they are ghosts themselves; it shouldn't be fake.

It was the true Xuan Huang Dao Lord who had descended, not the summoning of the Dao Lord's idol, but the true Dao Lord.

It was the first time Xuan Huang had descended to the underworld in his true form.

In this situation where even true cultivators in the yang world had not seen the Dao Lord for many years, the Dao Lord had actually descended to the Netherworld.

"We pay our respects to the Dao Lord, Dao Lord..."

A series of praising kneeling salutations and some kneeling slogans were at least formally very grand.

"Rise," Xuan Huang waved his hand, signaling them to stand up.

The higher the cultivation of the ghost cultivator, the more human-like they were. The lower the cultivation, the more they resembled wandering spirits. The leading ghost cultivators were already difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.

Only the cold aura remained, making people shudder.

"This time, I have come here to give you an opportunity. This尊 has newly opened a Daoist temple in the Sea of Blood, and I need you to explore and develop it. Are you willing?"

Xuan Huang found that the ghost cultivators respected him even more, to the point where no one dared to speak unless he opened his mouth.

They were even more pious than his disciples in the yang world.

So, he didn't bother to talk nonsense and directly stated the reason for summoning them.

"We are willing, we thank Xuan Shi for his grace."

Although the ghost cultivators were shocked and filled with joy and excitement, Xuan Huang's divine might still prevented them from revealing anything. They could only suppress the joy in their hearts and kowtow to Xuan Huang in a proper manner.

At the same time, they were overjoyed. It was finally their turn. In the past, Xuan Shi summoned yang world cultivators, but now it was finally their turn.

No matter where they went, as long as it was Xuan Shi's order, they had to perform well.

They didn't even care that they were going to the Seven Heavens.

No matter where, Xuan Shi said where, and that was where.

"Good!"

Xuan Huang nodded and directly issued the order.

"You four will lead this team. If you lack experience, contact the human world headquarters. Can you four do it?"

Xuan Huang directly named Qin Guang, Chu Jiang, Yan Luo, and Lun Zhuan.

The four ghost cultivators quickly accepted the order, vowing not to let down the Dao Lord's trust.

Afterwards, Xuan Huang waved his hand, opened a passage, and led a group of ghost cultivators into the Sea of Blood Burial Earth Continent.

The moment this group of ghost cultivators entered, they felt immense pressure and crisis.

If they were not within the domain governed by Jianmu, they would not even have the chance to survive and would be directly buried and turned into dust.

"Feel this place, adapt to it, and then do things according to the instructions."

Xuan Huang said a sentence and left them behind, entering the Burial Earth Daoist temple opened by Jianmu. Xuan Huang named this Daoist temple Hao Li Palace, just like the Washing Heart Palace of Jade Capital Mountain.

The ghost cultivators were not flustered at all, not because they were calm, but because they did not dare to be flustered, resulting in a seemingly calm demeanor.

They had never really been in contact with the Dao Lord, and even before they died, they did not have the fortune to be in contact, let alone after they died.

Xuan Huang had always been circulating in their imaginations and memories.

Suddenly being summoned by Xuan Huang and given a task, they were confused.

It was not until Xuan Huang left that they breathed a sigh of relief, a feeling of relief.

It seemed that the sense of crisis and pressure of this Sea of Blood was not as strong as that of the Dao Lord.

It was not even a pressure of the same level.

"Everyone..." Yan Luo wanted to say something, but didn't know how to start.

After thinking about it, he decided to shut up first and look at the information and instructions left by Xuan Shi. They also had merit tokens, and ghost cultivators also exchanged merits for points.

However, they liked to call them merits.

Because the points can really be compared to merits. These ghost cultivators need merits the most. A ghost cultivator full of merits is easier to survive the tribulation than ordinary ghost cultivators, and the gains are no less than those who survive by resisting.

In the underworld, in addition to buying everything, points can also buy merits.

Therefore, they prefer to call points merits.

The merit token is the point token. They picked up the merit tokens and quickly browsed through them.

Before long, they roughly understood what this place was.

This is the Burial Earth of the Blood Sea Heaven of the Seven Heavens, a magical holy land of the Blood Sea. Xuan Shi opened a Daoist temple here.

What they were stepping on was burial soil. No wonder even as ghosts, they felt the ground beneath their feet was more sinister and colder than themselves.

Burial soil was a good thing, capable of burying theoretically everything.

However, the Dao Lord also said that they were not truly stepping on burial soil, but on burial soil with a layer of protection from Lord Jianmu. If they were to step on real burial soil, they would be instantly buried and turned to dust.

Hearing this, they felt a chill in their… well, they didn't have hearts, but a tremor in their souls. So they were standing on a huge crisis.

No mistakes, one head, one hair, one inside, one appearance, one look!

Fortunately, there was Lord Jianmu's protection.

Therefore, without being told, they all uniformly kowtowed to Lord Jianmu, thanking him for his protection.

If Lord Jianmu was careless, and the spot where they stepped lost its protective layer, wouldn't they instantly disappear?

This was standing in a giant crematorium!

After realizing this, the entire ghost cultivator group became much more cautious, taking each step with extra care.

Continuing to browse the content below, their already blurred ghostly faces became even more indistinct.

The task the Dao Lord gave them was to transport burial soil back to the Underworld to increase its foundation and changes.

"This...?" They were very worried.

However, as they read on, they relaxed a lot.

"So that's how it is! The Dao Lord is tempering us," Yama said.

According to Xuan Huang's description, although burial soil was very dangerous, it was not impossible to utilize. As long as one could refine the aura of what seemed to be burial soil, one could obtain great changes.

Especially for ghost cultivators like them, the benefits were huge.

The only difficulty was that absorbing and refining the aura of burial soil was very painful, requiring considerable will and control, like refining high-dimensional energy into one's own body.

Once successful, the body would undergo tremendous progress, but once failed, it would suffer great trauma.

Fortune and misfortune depend on each other.

At the same time, there was also a technique with a very casual name, given to them by Xuan Huang, called the 'Five Ghosts搬運 (Moving) Method'.

In short, burial soil weighed a thousand pounds and was extremely dangerous. Touching it meant certain death.

Xuan Huang knew that they would not be able to transport burial soil in a short time, so combining formations and the characteristics of ghost cultivators, he specially created a divine power for them, called the 'Five Ghosts Moving Method'.

It could also be called the 'Five Ghosts Moving Divine Power'.

The specific abilities of the formation will not be described in detail. In short, it was a method that was both a formation and a tempering cultivation technique. When used, one would obtain tremendous progress.

It was their only means of transporting burial soil.

"Haha, great, with this divine power, we can complete the instructions of Master Xuan. Moreover, if I'm not mistaken, this is the first formation belonging to our ghost cultivators, and it's still such a top-level formation," Chu Jiang said.

"That's right, we have always lacked formations. First, there is no suppression, second, there are no talents, and third, there are no conditions. Now, a formation belonging to our ghost cultivators has finally appeared, and it is such a top-level formation, integrating cultivation and tempering, and it is still a combination formation," Qin Guang said.

It was pitiful to say that the dignified ghost cultivators didn't even have a formation.

This was also the reason for the gap with the Yang realm cultivators. First of all, the system of a hundred arts was incomplete, or even non-existent.

"The source of our ghost cultivators comes from the Dao Lord's 'Myriad Tribulations Yin Spirit Divine Thunder Sutra'. Just like the Yang realm cultivators come from the Three Invincible Techniques, the vastness of the Yin Spirit Sutra is strictly no less than the Three Invincible Techniques. The Three Invincible Techniques have three great adults suppressing them, and we also have Lord Purgatory to suppress us, but the Dao friends in the Yang realm are doing much better than us."

"So far, very few of us have walked our own path, and there is not even a single special cultivation system. It is shameful to say that we can't compare to the Dao friends in the Yang realm. Besides the short time, it is also because we are not competitive enough," Yama said.

The Yang realm cultivators started from the Three Invincible Techniques, and they started from the Yin Spirit Sutra.

These four techniques were all invincible techniques. In Xuan Huang's view, there was not much difference, except that the fundamentals of suppression were different. Purgatory was ultimately weaker than Jianmu and the others.

The four invincible techniques were the general outline, the foundation of the great tree of cultivators. The foundation was good, and the cultivation of the cultivators was fundamentally the branches and leaves. Every leaf was different, so the invincible techniques were still the fundamental techniques.

The Yin Spirit Sutra cultivated by ghost cultivators was the same as the Three Great Techniques cultivated by Yang realm cultivators, and was also developed according to their own abilities and talents.

It was not a truly complete 'Myriad Tribulations Yin Spirit Divine Thunder Sutra', and they didn't have the talent to learn the complete Yin Spirit Sutra.

So what Yama said was also the truth.

The Underworld was far from the prosperity of the main world.

Now, it was finally the turn of these ghost cultivators. Their chance had come, and they must seize the opportunity to catch up with the pace of the Yang realm cultivators.

"That's right, this is an opportunity, all Dao friends must seize the opportunity."

Yama's words were recognized by everyone.

Without opportunities, they craved opportunities. Now that the opportunity had finally come, these ghost cultivators would not miss it.

Xuan Huang had always been a hands-off manager, and this time was the same.

The ghost cultivators did not forget to report to the Yang realm headquarters.

However, the reported issue was a bit intriguing.

"Master Xuan has opened up a second dojo in the Blood Sea, but because of the special environment, it is more suitable for ghost cultivators. The Dao friends in the Underworld want us to pass on some experience."

At the Confucian School headquarters, Yan Lai was stunned when he received this news.

What was going on?

Why was it that nothing was happening to their cultivators now?

The Zhenxie Department and the Merit Hall were building the Transcendent Technology City, and Master Xuan didn't look for them when he opened up a new dojo.

However, it was just a momentary thought. They didn't think much about it. Instead, the report from the Underworld Dao friends was very interesting.

"What do you see?" Yan Lai asked with a smile.

"Full of desire to survive and a desire to seize opportunities," Meng Qiao said.

"That's right, I also see... It's not that the Blood Sea is suitable for their ghost cultivators, but that we have too many things to do. Master Xuan should have discovered this, so he gave them an opportunity," Zeng Wudao said.

"Forget it, just pretend we didn't see it. Since Master Xuan has given them an opportunity, we should do our best to help them and not hold them back. Give them all the experience we have summarized. The Dao friends in the Underworld are also our colleagues, and we will benefit from their success."

Yan Lai was not so petty and was not angry because of the small thoughts of the Underworld Dao friends.

Putting themselves in their shoes, the Underworld Dao friends were not easy either. Now that the opportunity had come, they would not do anything to hold them back.

The Confucian School was like this, and the Dao School, the Buddhist School, and the Martial Dao Alliance also received help from the Underworld branch.

Their choices were the same as the Confucian School's. They all fully supported them instead of dwelling on their small thoughts.
