Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Reincarnation Realm, Moongazer Serpent underworld.

“Great King, take a look at the recent reincarnation recent roster.”

In the palace of the Moongazer Serpent underworld, a reaper with a long tongue walked up to the King of Hell of the Moongazer Serpent.

The King of Hell of the Moongazer Serpent, who was sitting on the throne in boredom, reached out his hand and took the name list handed over by the reaper.

This book recorded the number of people who had reincarnated in the Moongazer Serpent Realm in the past 50 years.

Thus, the reincarnation name list was also called the Book of Life and Death.

However, unlike the legendary Book of Life and Death which could determine life and death with a single stroke, the reincarnation name list in the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell’s hands could only determine the life and death of cultivators below the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Above the Foundation Establishment Stage, it was no longer within his jurisdiction.

And even if it could decide the life and death of a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell wouldn’t dare to do it recklessly.

After all, in the underworld…there was still assessment.

Take the Moongazer Serpent underworld as an example. The underworld would be assessed once every thousand years.

If he passed the test, the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell could continue to be the hades in this ghost realm and lead the ghosts of this world.

However, if he failed the test, the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell would be punished by the Ten Yama Kings.

If the situation was slightly better. It only reduced the incense offerings of the Moongazer Serpent Ghost Realm.

If it was more serious, he would be stripped of the identity of the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell and replaced.

Currently, the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell was faced with such a problem.

This was because the next performance appraisal in the underworld was… not far away.

Life is not easy, the King of Hell sighs.

The Moongazer Serpent King of Hell looked at the reincarnation name list, which was suddenly missing half the target, with a troubled expression.

The Moongazer Serpent King of Hell could see the changes in the number of people in the reincarnation name list in the past 50 years.

Compared to the previous fifty years, the number of cultivators that came to the underworld in the past fifty years had greatly decreased.

The last 50-year period coincides with the Immortal Ascension Assembly. This was equivalent to the shopping festival in Lu Yuan’s previous life.

Facing a large number of cultivator souls that might come to the Lower Realm, the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell was fully prepared.

Not only did he prepare many ghost houses for them in advance, but he even specially contacted a papermaker in the Upper Realm and prepared many servant girls for these people.

It was to retain this batch of talents.

That’s right, to the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell, cultivator souls were talents.

It was also the most crucial indicator for the underworld assessment.

The underworld’s thousand-year assessment was to assess how many cultivator talents had been absorbed in this realm in a thousand years.

In Lu Yuan’s previous life, there was a saying that in the new era, the most expensive thing was talent!

This saying was the same in the underworld.

Although the underworld was big, there were very few people who could cultivate into ghost cultivators.

Most of the people who entered the underworld were basically ordinary people. There were not many cultivators.

The reason was related to cultivator’s tendency to destroy corpses and make their enemy’s souls dissipate.

That’s right, what cultivators thought was a stable method of destroying the enemy was simply a waste of heaven’s resources for the underworld.

It could be understood that a cultivator destroys the corpse after the battle, but what’s the point of letting the enemy’s soul dissipate?

Reapers were also workers and they should be treated as such.

“We don’t object to you cultivating in the Upper Realm, but you can’t not give our Ghost Realm some fresh blood.” The Moongazer Serpent King of Hell thought.

Many cultivators above the Core Formation Stage had mastered the technique of borrowing corpses to resurrect their souls. Their souls were very difficult to capture by ordinary reapers.

Coupled with the bad relationship among cultivators caused the souls that could enter the Lower Realm were basically all below the Core Formation Stage cultivation.

To be able to encounter a Core Formation Stage cultivator’s soul, the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell would jump up and down in joy as if he had won the lottery.

Generally speaking, the assessment of the Moongazer Serpent Ghost Realm was to find fifty Core Formation Stage souls within a thousand years.

Originally, because of Immortal Ascension Assembly, the Moongazer Serpent Ghost Realm would have a harvest every 300 years.

An Immortal Ascension Assembly could provide them with at least five to six Core Formation Realm souls.

Three times Immortal Ascension Assembly would bring him about 15 or 16 Core Formation Stage souls.

At other times, the souls of the Moongazer Serpent Ghost Realm would also cultivate to break through to the Core Formation Stage.

This way, even if the Moongazer Serpent Ghost Realm couldn’t complete the mission every thousand years, the difference wouldn’t be too big.

However, the recent Immortal Ascension Assembly disappointed the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell.

He originally thought that this Immortal Ascension Assembly be the same as the previous ones, with a few Core Formation Stage souls that had not been destroyed.

But after the entire Immortal Ascension Assembly ended, he only met one!

That’s right, there was only one.

According to this unlucky fellow, he was eager to break through his cultivation and pass the first stage of the Immortal Ascension Assembly.

As a result, he pushed himself too much and ended his life prematurely.

If not for that, he might not have entered the Moongazer Serpent Ghost Realm.

The Moongazer Serpent King of Hell had also asked if many cultivators died in this Immortal Ascension Assembly.

The other party explained that many people indeed died in this Immortal Ascension Assembly.

There were even some heavenly pride among them.

This made the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell excited for a long time.

He was just waiting for these heavenly pride to come down and boost his performance.

However, he had waited for a full 50 years, and he had not even encountered the soul of a Core Formation cultivator, let alone a heavenly pride.

This also let the Moongazer Serpent King of Hell know that… something had happened in the Moongazer Serpent Realm!

If he wasn’t mistaken, someone who could gather and lock souls had appeared in the Moongazer Serpent Realm, and this guy had stolen his pie..
