My Augmented Statuses Have Unlimited Duration

Without spiritual qi and Yin qi, the souls of the dead would naturally dissipate after seven days.

However, as his Nine Nether Dao Scripture became more and more profound, his understanding of the Nine Nether soul became more and more thorough.

Now, he knew that things were not as simple as his soul dissipating.

Souls could not be seen or touched in front of mortals.

However, it was not really just a ball of energy. It was real.

Not to mention scattering, even if they were reduced to ashes, there would still be something left.

It was either an emotion, an obsession, or a floating fragment.

Where should these things go?

“Humans have three souls: Fetal Light, Bright Spirit, and Secret Essence. There are seven spirits: Corpse Dog, Concealed Arrow, Yin Sparrow, Thief Swallower, Flying Poison, Filth Removal, and Stinking Lung.”

“Seven days after a person dies, their soul will dissipate. However, the souls that fly away and dissipate will not return to the Netherworld. They will scatter on the ground like trash.”

“Every time the wind blows and rain falls, these souls will be swept into the rivers, lakes, and seas, returning to the black sea until they are abandoned in the Ruins of End!”

“As time passed, countless remnant souls shattered and mixed into a ball of evil thoughts in the Ruins of End. This is the origin of that thing.”

Jiang Li also recalled something.

He had actually heard of the name Ruins of End.

“To the east of the Bohai Sea, billions of miles away, there are huge ravines and only bottomless valleys. There is no bottom below, and it is called the Ruins of End. The water of the Eight Banishment and Nine Wilderness, the stream of the Heavenly Han, is not ignored. It does not increase or decrease.”

The Ruins of End meant the end of one’s existence. It was an endless junkyard used by the continent of the Nine Provinces.

It was said that even if all the water in the world gathered here and poured into it, it would not increase or decrease the Ruins of End. It could be seen how vast and endless it was.

Since there was no longer the Netherworld or reincarnation, the souls of the living beings in the world were useless. Naturally, they were all thrown into the Ruins of End.

However, in just eight thousand years, Tragic Death City, which had gathered a small portion of the souls of the cultivation world of the Eastern Region of the Azure Cloud Continent, had gathered such a terrifying group of Soul Devouring Worms that could not be burned away by the Ghost Lantern Cold Flame.

Then, how terrifying was the Ruins of End that had swallowed the souls of 200,000 years of living beings in the Nine Provinces?

It was one thing for the evil thoughts to stay inside.

Now, those evil thoughts were attracted by the immortal qi born from the Chaos Immortal Embryo and the immortal qi snatched from the continent of the Nine Provinces. They were surging towards the continent of the Nine Provinces.

If those evil thoughts appeared, what did they want to do?

They were really going to slaughter the Nine Provinces.

When he thought up to here, Jiang Li simply shuddered.

“Where is the entrance to the Ruins of End?”

As soon as he said this, he actually thought of the answer.

He said the result together with the fortune-teller.

“Bottomless Pit!”

Jiang Li cursed in his heart. The perception of this Merit Golden Lotus was a little too broad. Was the sea area near the Prosperous Ox Continent considered the Prosperous Ox Continent?

Previously, when he found the Pitfall Mountain with the Water Spirit Immortal Qi, it was actually only a small space attached to the bottomless hole.

The true Bottomless Pit was the connection to the Ruins of End!

If he had been more curious at that time and went into the Bottomless Pit to get to the bottom of it, perhaps he would not have had such trouble today.

While Jiang Li was feeling angry, Suan Bansheng used his hands which had already turned into bones to start packing the tortoise shell and copper coins.

“It’s my fortune to be able to help the Human Emperor with this last divination.”

“I no longer have anything to worry about. Goodbye. I wish you a smooth journey.”

The price of divination was not small.

The curse on his body had already spread to his neck.

If he spoke another word, he would directly rot into a complete black skeleton.

As he had said, it was the last divination.

However, the current Human Emperor seemed to have other thoughts.

“I don’t think so.”

“Sir, you sacrificed yourself to save the Nine Provinces from doom. This is a great virtue.”

“The laws of heaven punish you. That’s the punishment for leaking the heavenly secrets.”

“However, the Human Emperor will reward you for your contribution!”

As Jiang Li spoke, he stretched out his hand and pressed it on the other party’s body.

Then, a stream of power of virtuous merit was sent over.

In the past, he naturally could not control the power of virtuous merit, but after the Three Flowers Gathering realm, he could already mobilize it simply.

After temporarily offsetting the divine punishment with merit, Suan Bansheng was surprised to discover that his rotting flesh was quickly growing back.

In a moment, he returned to being a complete old man.

“It’s not a trick, it’s real flesh and blood!”

He pinched his entire body in disbelief.

He looked at Jiang Li in surprise. Obviously, he had not expected this.

“This merit can suppress the divine punishment for three years.”

“Senior, you have great talent and character. I don’t want you to suffer the punishment of the heavens, so why don’t you stay in Fengdu City and enjoy your old age?”

“The Soul Dissolution Liquor in my ghost city tastes good.”

Jiang Li used the power of virtuous merit to suppress divine punishment, and it could be said that he had given Suan Bansheng a new life.

Not to mention an invitation, even if he was chased away now, he would be unwilling to leave.

After bowing happily and accepting the invitation, Jiang Li’s Vice City Lord, Qin Shuman, walked over at the right time.

“Young Master, the Village Viewing Platform is ready.”

Behind her, a small Gate of Hell was opening and waiting.

Without needing Jiang Li to open his mouth to give the order, she had already arranged everything.

This female ghost who had been following Jiang Li since the Qi Refinement realm had always been valued by the current Human Emperor.

Although her combat strength was not outstanding, she could be said to be the leader under Jiang Li in other aspects.

Be it training Yin Soldiers, consolidating resources, managing logistics, or other jobs, she could always manage these affairs for the current Human Emperor in an orderly manner.

Under the circumstances that the current Human Emperor was doing nothing, the one controlling Fengdu City was not the Hall Master or the other Earth Immortals, but this descendant of the Immortal Qin Dynasty.

Later on, Jiang Li gave her the last bit of Son of Heaven’s Qi.

This female ghost was no longer afraid of the invasion of Yang qi and Buddhist light, becoming more like a living person.

Now, she was in charge of developing Fengdu City’s territory and reconnecting the Netherworld.

The Village Viewing Platform was the next Netherworld building found on the Netherworld fragment after Tragic Death City. The effect was not inferior to the Thousand Mile Eye of the Southern Heavenly Gate.

He passed through two Gates of Hell in a row.

Jiang Li and the others arrived at a brand new Netherworld.

As soon as they arrived, they heard cries.

“Master, please! Let me see my family again! My child is only five years old! Let me see him again! If I can see him grow up, I can die in peace!”

“Master! Master! I just gave birth and died. My heartless husband married a second wife the next day.”

“I’m really worried about that newborn child. Master, you can do anything to me! Let me see my child again!”

“Master! Please show mercy…”

Although the shattered Netherworld could not form a complete Yellow Spring Road, it was close to a certain place in the continent of the Nine Provinces and would absorb some nearby souls.

The accent of these ghosts was different from the Azure Cloud Continent.

The Village Viewing Platform was in the Netherworld, and it should be close to one of the other eight continents.

They were originally ghosts attracted by the Village Viewing Platform and coveted the human world. They surrounded the platform all year round and looked at it eagerly.

However, at this moment, the Village Viewing Platform had already been occupied by Fengdu City. They only used a few hundred Yin soldiers to block a large number of wandering souls, causing them to only be able to wail and not approach.

Ignoring the wails of the ghosts, Jiang Li directly walked up to the Village Viewing Platform.

On the Village Viewing Platform of the Reminiscent Mountain Range, it was wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. Apart from a small stone path, the rest were all mountains of blades and swords. It was very steep.

Standing on it, one could see the five continents and four seas.

With the Netherworld Merit Green Lotus above his head, Jiang Li fiddled with it a little and grasped the method to control the Village Viewing Platform.

Mortals could only use intense thoughts to move them, but Jiang Li could do as he pleased and look wherever he wanted.

With a thought, an image immediately appeared in front of the Village Viewing Platform. A huge plate was stabbed into the black sea. A large number of amphibious sea beasts were already entrenched in it and were fighting for territory.

This was the seabed plate that Jiang Li had sent flying with a long roar.

At his current level, the power of his every move was already enough to change the world.

Seeing that the sea around the plate was still calm, Jiang Li heaved a sigh of relief.

This was because Suan Bansheng had told him that the scene he had seen was actually seven days ago!

Fortunately, the evil thoughts had not rushed out.
