Chapter 76: Arrangements for Reincarnation

  The Emperor Jiang returned to the tribe with the witches, and began to think quietly. The witch's calamity had arrived, and someone had to fill it in, even if all the witches were killed, it was estimated that it would be difficult to complete the killing calamity. The witches wanted to save everyone, but it was extremely difficult. Emperor Jiang furrowed his brow, now the witches had a population of 10 billion, with 10 million elite witches in reincarnation, and some witches had entered the Thirty-Three Heavens for quiet cultivation. Over the years, people had been entering continuously, and now there were also 10 million witches inside, although not many, but they were all the backbone of the witches. Even if all the remaining witches on the mainland died in the calamity, the witches would still be one of the largest tribes. Moreover, there were still many witches' bloodlines continuing among humans, thinking of this, Emperor Jiang felt much more at ease.

  "Since it's a calamity, let's just face the calamity. Who knows, it might also be an opportunity." Emperor Jiang said calmly, with a spark of excitement flashing in his eyes. With these 20 million people as a guarantee, Emperor Jiang had already dared to take a gamble. No matter whether he succeeded or failed in the end, the Witch tribe would still be able to continue on. Moreover, most of the Witch tribe's people were eager for battle and fierce fighting was what they yearned for. Although many would die or get injured as a result, those who managed to survive would definitely see an increase in their strength and mental fortitude.

  Emperor Jiang suddenly disappeared on the spot, but instead flew straight to the Wheel of Rebirth. The great war between the Wu and Yao tribes would inevitably result in many deaths and injuries, so he had to properly report to Hou Tu how to arrange for the reincarnation of his deceased clansmen. Thinking of this, Emperor Jiang had an idea in mind.

  "Big Brother is here." In the Wheel of Rebirth Hall, Hou Tu felt Emperor Jiang's aura and couldn't help but say softly, a faint smile appearing on his face.

  Before long, Emperor Jiang had appeared outside the Wheel of Rebirth Hall and saw Hou Tu standing at the door to welcome him, feeling delighted in his heart.

  "Why stand on ceremony outside the hall? You and I are siblings, no need for such politeness."

  Houtu smiled slightly, "Big brother hasn't come here for many years, I've been thinking about it a lot, so naturally I came out to welcome you."

  Di Jiang also smiled and didn't say another word, walking into the grand hall with Hou Tu.

  "Is your visit this time for the affairs of the Wu tribe?" Hou Tu suddenly asked.

  "Did you know something, sister?" Emperor Jiang was surprised and asked back.

  "Hmph, big brother always comes over for the sake of the Wu tribe's affairs, what else do I need to know?" Hou Tu let out a delicate snort, without any of the dignity of a saint. But speaking of it, doesn't the term "saint" also have the character for "person"?

  Di Jiang felt a little embarrassed, as if every time he came over was indeed because of something, and not once was it because he missed Hou Tu and specifically came to take a look. However, he immediately regained his composure and said:

  "The witch's calamity has begun, let's discuss the proper matter first."

  "Witching Apocalypse!" Hou Tu's expression also turned solemn, she had vaguely sensed it since her ascension to sainthood, but didn't expect it to come so soon.

  "What does Big Brother plan to do?" Hou Tu couldn't help but ask.

  "The calamity is about to begin, I hope the witch tribe in the cycle of reincarnation will not participate. Moreover, I will completely seal off the ten heavenly realms of the witch tribe and not let them participate, just let the one billion witches on the vast land of Honghuang face their doom." Emperor Jiang said calmly.

  "What will happen to those billions of Wu Zong? How many can survive in the end?" Hou Tu furrowed his brow, asking with great concern.

  "I don't know about this either, but at most it can only survive for a hundred million." Emperor Jiang closed his eyes and said calmly.

  "Ah!" Di Er's face changed drastically as soon as he heard it, his complexion turning deathly pale.

  "Don't worry too much, the cycle of reincarnation has already begun, and all our people have a chance to be reborn, it's not too sad." Emperor Jiang continued.

  "But when the two tribes go to war, the people of the tribe will inevitably be bound by their karma, and when they are reincarnated, their lives will still be difficult." Hou Tu looked at Di Jiang and said seriously. When living beings enter the six paths of reincarnation, everything is calculated based on their karma and merit, even if it's Hou Tu, she can't arbitrarily intervene to change things.

  "This I have long since anticipated." Emperor Jiang said, with a wave of his large hand, the Qian Kun Ding was brought out. The Qian Kun Ding flipped over, and countless merits and virtues surged out, transforming into a massive cloud of merit.

  "Condense!" Emperor Jiang shouted loudly, and suddenly the cloud of merit condensed, soon turning into a pool of golden water.

  Houtu watched Emperor Jiang's movements and couldn't help but feel a little stunned, not thinking that Emperor Jiang would have so much merit, probably about 20% of the Open Heaven Merit.

  "This is the Wheel of Rebirth Merit Pool. Before entering the Six Paths of Reincarnation, all members of the Wu tribe must pass through this pool to wash away the karma on their bodies." Emperor Jiang waved his hand and summoned the Wheel of Rebirth Merit Pool, which was condensed from merit, into his hand and handed it over to Hou Tu. This Wheel of Rebirth Merit Pool is similar in function to the Eight Treasure Merit Pool created by the Western Church, both can wash away karma, but each time a portion of karma is washed away, the corresponding amount of merit will also decrease.

  "How did Elder Brother accumulate so much merit?" Hou Tu asked in surprise.

  "It's been accumulating over time, don't ask too much." Emperor Jiang said calmly.

  "Are these merits enough to wash away all the karma on our clan members' bodies?" Hou Tu furrowed her brow again.

  Di Jiang smiled and said slowly, "In the great war between the two tribes, those with higher strength will have greater karma. At that time, only those below the Taiyi Xuanxian realm can enter the pool of merit, so these merits will definitely be enough."

  "What about the arrangements for those who have reached the Taiyi Xuanxian realm?" Hou Tu continued to ask, but in her heart, she wasn't too worried. Since Big Brother said so, he must already have a good plan in mind.

  Di Jiang looked at Hou Tu and didn't answer directly. Instead, he suddenly said: "First give me the You Ming Book and the Huang Quan Flag, and you will naturally understand later."

  Houtu listened afterwards, didn't say much more, and immediately summoned the Youming Book and Huangquan Flag. These two mixed chaotic spiritual treasures were the props that Emperor Jiang relied on when he transformed his wheel of reincarnation. They couldn't be taken out of the cycle of reincarnation and could only be stored here with Houtu. Houtu also used the witch tribe's unique blood sacrifice method to refine these two magical artifacts, but apart from discovering their strong defensive capabilities, she didn't research any other effects.

  Emperor Jiang took two objects from Hou Tu's hand, and his body suddenly burst out with a powerful aura. In an instant, the power of creation in the cycle of reincarnation condensed and rushed into the Netherworld Book in Emperor Jiang's hand. The Netherworld Book flew out of his hand and hovered high in the air, its surface flashing with a mysterious blue light.

  "Now that the Book of Yu Ming has been opened, it has the effect of storing true spirits. When the time comes, there will be clansmen who have reached the realm of Tai Yi Xuan Xian or above entering reincarnation, and they will all be guided into the Book of Yu Ming with the Yellow Spring Flag. Later, I'll think of a way to recreate their true bodies." Emperor Jiang handed the Yellow Spring Flag back to Hou Tu, saying seriously.

  "Reform the true body?" Hou Tu was somewhat puzzled, after entering the cycle of reincarnation, only one source of true spirit can be left behind, which is different from the original spirit, without any cultivation or magical powers, how can the true body be reformed?

  Emperor Jiang thought that as long as a true spirit was included in the Sealing Gods' List, he could recreate his true body and serve in the Heavenly Court. Later, no matter how many times he was killed, he could be reborn again from the Sealing Gods' List. Although Emperor Jiang didn't know what principle this was based on, at least he had a glimmer of hope. Even if he still couldn't comprehend the method to recreate his true body in the future, he could use the Sealing Gods' List to help the true spirits of his clansmen from the Book of Netherworld recreate their true bodies.

  However, thinking that Hong Jun would definitely come out to stop him, Emperor Jiang's eyes burst forth with a strong light. If only his own strength wasn't too weak, he could have opened up a piece of heaven and earth for his tribe to settle in, and wouldn't need to care about the dogshit calamities of the vast wilderness.

  The reincarnation matters were arranged properly, and Emperor Jiang had another conversation with Hou Tu before preparing to leave.

  "Be careful, big brother." Seeing Emperor Jiang about to leave, Hou Tu still spoke out the words in her heart. Under the calamity of the great tribulation, the crisis of the vast wilderness was lurking everywhere, and as the leader of the Wu tribe, Emperor Jiang was even more difficult to escape, and what Hou Tu worried about most was him.

  Emperor Jiang smiled slightly after saying goodbye to Tu Di, but didn't say a word. He was deeply moved in his heart and didn't speak much. With a whoosh, he flew out of the cycle of reincarnation.
