Netherworld.
Little Paradise.
"What? We lost three of our own in a battle like this?"
Festos asked in disbelief.
He had just completed Sarina's task and returned, checking his personnel.
——Three of them died!
Those chosen to receive the "Two Worlds People" cards were all his trusted elites.
What exactly happened?
In the Void.
Lines of glowing small words quietly appeared, clarifying the course of events.
Festos carefully read them.
After a mont.
A murderous intent erupted from him.
"Damn it... that guy did it on purpose! Jiuyao! He did it on purpose!"
The roar was transmitted far away.
The glowing small words did not move.
Festos said, "Are we just going to watch him be arrogant? No, I am willing to contribute rit — I believe those in the council are also willing to help — Jiuyao, what do you say?"
The glowing small words remained unmoved.
Festos added, "Sequence, why are you hesitating?"
"The one who acted was Lady Sarina." Jiuyao said.
"Lady Sarina was also deceived by him! Lady Sarina failed to notice that her task was completed by us, but three of us died, adding unprecedented humiliation!"
Festos shouted frantically.
"Alright then, I will contribute rit and ask a powerful elder to kill him!"
The glowing small words still did not move.
At this mont, the door opened.
A burly Evil Ghost shouted from outside:
"Number 91 to box 777! A VIP has requested you!"
Festos glanced coldly outside, his expression gradually twisted as he shouted low:
"Contribute all your shadow rits to ."
"Yes, sir."
The other Jiuyao Executors said.
Everyone reached out and placed their hands on him.
A line of glowing small words appeared:
"With the imnse power of this sequence, coupled with everyone's willingness, you have directly gained 10 points of shadow rit and can advance."
Festos shouted, "Advance! I want to catch up with that guy faster—I want to beco stronger, and then kill him myself!"
"Advanced!"
A violent Netherworld aura fluctuated around Festos, blowing like wind.
From this mont on, I am no longer a ceremony officer!
He looked towards the Void and saw two new ranks already appearing there:
"Congratulations!"
"You have been promoted to ceremony chief officer!"
Main officer?
Now what am I supposed to do?
Festos couldn't help but look outside and t the impatient eyes of the Evil Ghost.
The Evil Ghost paused for a mont.
"Sorry, I misspoke earlier, please forgive ."
It bowed apologetically.
——Indeed, identity promotion has benefits!
Festos smirked coldly, intending to mock him, but unexpectedly, the other party turned and left.
The Evil Ghost ran towards the box while shouting repeatedly:
"Number 91 has been promoted to top card, ask the guests in box 777 if they are willing to pay more, without more paynt, they can't request him!"
Even amidst the surrounding cacophony of music, the Evil Ghost's voice still reached Festos' ears.
He stood there rigidly, not moving at all.
Only a line of glowing small words quietly appeared:
"Netherworld, careers unlimited, this sequence is searching for other replaceable careers for you, please temporarily endure humiliation!"
Festos looked at these small words, and a trace of light flashed in his eyes.
...
On the other side.
After helping Sarina complete the task, Wu Xiaode and his two companions had already returned to the Hell of Burning.
"Brother Ming, can I really use this thing given by Lady Sarina?"
"Yes, Brother Ming, this thing seems very powerful."
Spiky Tooth and Big Banana said nervously.
Each held a book embedded with runes.
Spiky Tooth's book cover read: "How to Beco a Human Assassin, Integrating Mysterious Powers."
Big Banana's book said: "On the Developnt of Tank Characters."
The two books emitted a hazy mist, constantly providing combat insights when touched.
Wu Xiaode smiled and said, "You helped her complete the task, she pointed you towards a bright path — practice well, this ti, it's a huge gain."
Seeing their boss saying so, the two eased their minds.
"Boss, what's your next task?"
Spiky Tooth asked.
"Let see... oh no, it's related to us." Wu Xiaode frowned.
"Related to us?" Spiky Tooth and Big Banana said together.
Wu Xiaode followed the profession prompt and whispered:
"Apply for interrogation."
The ground shook continuously.
A coffin rose from the ground.
The coffin was covered in tags, filled with content:
"Exceptionally deceased spirit."
"Origin: beyond the sky."
"Description: This is a non-mortal spirit forcibly changed into a human by 'love, dreams, world peace' and perished on the ground in the Primordial Tribulation."
"Task content: Either extract useful information or gather so treasures from it, and once deed without additional value, bury it underground as new energy contributing to the Netherworld's environntal cause."
"Points to note:"
"1, If they possess rit, following the basic law of Yellow Springs, arrangent for reincarnation can be granted, carefully discern this;"
"2. Be cautious when opening the coffin lid; it is reinforced with the Laws of the Death World, which can protect you from the harm of any spirit inside."
Wu Xiaode imdiately understood.
In fact, he had long known that in the Death World, entities without value can only be buried underground as "batteries."
For now, the sa rule seed to apply to mysterious life forms.
Wu Xiaode reached out to the edge of the coffin and gave it a firm push—
Inside, he saw the corpse of a tall, skinny man, standing there, soaked to the bone.
"How did you die?"
Wu Xiaode asked.
The tall, skinny man replied woodenly, "Rain... it was raining, and touching it ant death..."
Wu Xiaode imdiately understood.
This guy encountered the Rain Tribulation.
"Why did the rain cause death?" he pretended not to understand.
"It's a tribulation of Pangu, just a few drops ended my life," the tall, skinny man sighed.
Wu Xiaode glanced at the note on the coffin lid.
The note remained unchanged.
So this guy didn't contribute anything of value, did he?
"Did you do anything valuable while you were alive, or did you acquire any treasures?"
Wu Xiaode asked.
"Bro, I think you're also soone transford from mysterious life forms; I only lived for a day, where would I find treasures?" the tall, skinny man complained.
Wu Xiaode smiled, "Alright, please wait a mont while I handle this for you."
Handle?
The tall, skinny man could only stand still.
Wu Xiaode closed the coffin lid and waved his hand, saying:
"New energy."
With a rumbling sound—
The coffin sank into the ground and disappeared.
This dead mysterious life form would be buried underground, continuously contributing to the Netherworld.
But this was just the most basic classification.
——Wu Xiaode completed this task without gaining any rit.
He glanced at Bowya and Big Banana and said, "Don't just watch; go and comprehend the book gifted by Sarina."
"Yes, boss!"
The two went off to the side to start learning.
"Next one!"
Wu Xiaode called out.
The ground shook, and yet another coffin floated up from below.
Snap.
This coffin was tagged with a simple label that read:
"Soul Traveler."
"This is a special kind of mysterious life form. Although it didn't escape the rules of 'Love, Dreams, World Peace,' it relied on its special abilities to seize a dead human's body and revive within it."
"However, it still died."
Wu Xiaode pried open the coffin lid and looked inside.
This ti, a petite woman lay inside the coffin.
"Welco to the Death World, but how did you die?"
Wu Xiaode asked with curiosity.
"So tiny animals attacked . I defeated them and ate them, and then I died," the woman said expressionlessly.
Wu Xiaode couldn't help but hold his breath for a mont.
——You don't have to eat them just because you defeated them, buddy!
Was this a case of possessing a human body but not acquiring human mories?
"Human bodies are indeed fragile."
Wu Xiaode said sympathetically.
"Exactly, but I did gain sothing, and that's this," the woman said.
She raised her hand to show Wu Xiaode the beautiful jade bracelet on her wrist.
Ding!
The note on the coffin lid let out a slight ring as it updated with more information:
"Discovered a treasure:"
"Jade of the Green Heart, Ice Kind, Tempered Glass."
"This is an extrely rare gem core, recognized as a treasure!"
"It has been claid by the Netherworld, with a fake duplicate left in the human world."
"This spirit can be reincarnated as one of five categories of animals or used as new energy. Please decide."
Wu Xiaode quickly read through and nodded to the woman:
"Excellent, I'll handle your case shortly. Please wait."
He closed the coffin lid.
The woman's voice ca from inside the coffin:
"Wait, what will happen to ?"
"Reincarnation—this ti, you can freely eat your enemies," Wu Xiaode replied.
"Is that so? Then, thank you," the woman said, satisfied.
With a rumbling sound—
The coffin sank into the ground.
A small line of text appeared:
"You gained 1 point of rit."
That's alright; as long as the work is done well and benefits the Netherworld, rit will be earned.
"Next."
Wu Xiaode said, rubbing his hands together.
With a rumbling sound—
Yet another coffin slowly rose.
"Feels a bit like opening a mystery box... I just hope to quickly gather rit..."
In Wu Xiaode's mumble, the coffin ca to a steady stop.
A note was attached to the coffin:
"Mysterious Life."
"Arrived through a special transit channel."
"Powerful, well-equipped, part of a sequence, fully prepared."
"——It's here to kill you."
"Please proceed with caution."
