Reincarnation of the God of Medicine
Chapter 540: Sacred things in the realm of death
Xiao Tian was awakened in the realm of death due to the unexpected actions of his childhood teacher. With a spirit physique that had no real physique, Xiao Tian walked following the line of spirits lining up to be judged.
The feeling of regret as well as anger could not be removed from Xiao Tian's mind, until finally getting a solution from the Monkey God. Unfortunately, the solution is ...
"Challenging the kings of hell!?"
"Do you think I'm crazy!?" Xiao Tian shouted involuntarily to the point of attracting everyone's attention.
It was natural for Xiao Tian to be surprised, because after all he was not as strong during his lifetime. Only bring spirits without cultivation. In contrast to the spirit around him that feels strong despite his fate.
"Did that man just say he wanted to challenge the kings of hell?" muttered the Death Gods that lined up some distance away at every periphery of the queue of the spirits that had just been absent in their world.
At the end of the line behind the gates of death, there appeared the officer of the afterlife with the ledger in his hand. The officer was accompanied by two figures of old men dressed the same in different colors. Both wear traditional Chinese clothing, but are black and white overall. To the right of the officers of the afterlife is seen a tall thin old man in all white clothes, while to his left is a short and fat man dressed all in black. In one look Xiao Tian who had read their story from the modern world immediately recognized them. 'Heibai Wucang!'
Other than the afterlife officer, Xiao Tian was also noticed by the Death Gods who were faced like youths, who were marching sideways as if having the task of preventing a spirit from escaping or going out of line. And at the end of the line beside them, there is a gatekeeper of the lower realms in the form of an adult human with a head shaped like a horse and a buffalo.
"Niu Tou and Ma Mian!" mumbled Xiao Tian slowly.
"So they still work there?" wu Kong continued through telepathy. Xiao Tian who knew full history recorded how Wu Kong's behavior had killed the two guards of the afterlife, and even crossed out his name and the names of his comrades in the death book immediately cut out by saying, 'Can't you shake the realm of death again?'
"Actually I could, but I will be punished again if I do that," Wu Kong replied as he slipped a displeased tone in the words.
While Xiao Tian was glancing right and left to observe while hearing Wu Kong's explanation, Niu Tou and Ma Mian who were originally standing upright at the side of the gate slowly approached as they were attracted by Xiao Tian's last words.
"Did you just say you wanted to oppose the kings of hell?" niu Tou asked with his bull face. He looked at Xiao Tian with a domineering aura, yet strangely Xiao Tian was not depressed at all.
"That's a sacred word that was forbidden a long time ago, do you want to fate like those Death Gods?" ma Mian asked threateningly. He was trying to frighten Xiao Tian who they thought was just an ordinary human being without cultivation.
Unfortunately, their plan could not be implemented, all because Xiao Tian's soul was completely protected. And the thing that protects it is ...
With his forehead shielded by the holy dragon symbol, Xiao Tian reversed the dominance of the spirit pressure ledua the guardian of the lower realm. And make both submit without having to do anything. Everything happened just like that, leaving everyone including Xiao Tian confused.
"Ma ... that human had just subdued Niu Tou and Ma Mian without moving a single bit!?" everyone was shocked to see such an unimaginable miracle.
While Xiao Tian was sensing the holy power, it slowly came to a realization that it turned out that all the symbols of the holy spirit were still attached to his spirit.
And it's been getting stronger since he didn't have a real physique.
"Yes, I challenge the kings of hell to regain my body and my life!" xiao Tian replied following Wu Kong's direction. The Death Gods murmured in regards to Xiao Tian's bold demeanor, yet none of them had any intention of opposing Xiao Tian's submission. In fact, it could be said, all of them looked ecstatic at Xiao Tian's actions against the two guards. Based on what Xiao Tian knew, those Death Gods were originally ordinary humans like him, who were likely held back from the wheel of reincarnation before their sins paid off. And the way to pay for their sins is to work as a God of death who is in charge of uprooting and attracting the spirits of humans who are destined to die.
"What sins did they commit to be punished for?" mumbled Xiao Tian while looking at the Death Gods curiously. And shortly after that ...
Xiao Tian was forced to wear all-black clothes and be made the same as them. Hei Bai Wu Chang put the clothes on to Xiao Tian and asked to march.
"He .... !?"
"Why are you even asking me to hang out with them!?" xiao Tian asked in surprise.
"You want to go to the death tournament, right?"
"Then compete with them in taking lives!" hei Bai Wuchang replied in turn.
"So they don't wear those clothes because they're punished!?" xiao Tian asked confusedly.
Xiao Tian was finally asked to line up sideways with the Death Gods, and shortly after that one of him realized one important fact that he could not ignore. The fact that the Death Gods were blood-related with his childhood teacher. The gods of death told him that they were the victims of the murder of the Yin Yang God, who was born as a baby with memories from a previous life. And the reason they wear the death Dew uniform is in order to come back to life with an indelible memory. The way to get that right is to win the death tournament and fight the kings of Hell.
