"Xiao, you must cultivate the 'One Hundred Variations Divine Power,' it's the true essence of changing appearance. Once transformed, even True Gods cannot differentiate the real from the fake."

Xiao Mu silently made up his mind, feeling that 'One Hundred Variations Divine Power' was indeed indispensable.

Changing his appearance, he called out, "Go in!"

Together with Huang Yuan, they opened the passageway, then stepped into it one by one.

Xiao Mu followed closely behind.

After entering the passageway and walking along it, they arrived smoothly at the location of a huge stone grinding wheel, passing directly over it without stopping.

"This... this grinding wheel... it feels so familiar, the Birth Wheel, it's the Birth Wheel!"

The astonished voice of Wu De suddenly echoed from Xiao Mu's Divine Sense, filled with surprise as he seemed to recognize the origin of the Birth Wheel.

Due to being too close to Zun and Huang Yuan, Xiao Mu, despite his surprise, did not ask Wu De any questions.

Moving forward past the stone grinding wheel, they entered a vast world and soon reached a river exuding a strong stench of decay from its dark and gloomy waters.

"Ghostwater River!"

Wu De's voice sounded again in Xiao Mu's Divine Sense, the elder undoubtedly recognizing the name of the Blackwater River.

After crossing the Ghostwater River, the three of them reached the base of the Ghost Bridge and walked up it with large strides.

"Ghost Bridge, it's the Ghost Bridge indeed!"

Wu De shouted out loud, his tone filled with immense shock.

Xiao Mu couldn't hold back anymore. Falling a few steps behind on purpose, he transmitted his voice to inquire from Wu De, "Senior, do you recognize this place?"

"Of course!"

Wu De spoke confidently and assuredly, "This is the Reincarnation Path, controlled by the Divine Monarch Miaoyi."

"Miaoyi? "

Xiao Mu was unaware of who the so-called Miaoyi was, although he did know about the Reincarnation Path.

"Miaoyi is one of the four great Divine Monarchs in the Heavenly Court, ranked second among them. Among the Divine Monarchs, he is the most loyal to the Heavenly Emperor."

"Strange, why has the Reincarnation Path turned into what it is now, and why are there so many Divine Spirits dead on the Reincarnation Path?"

Noticing the corpses of Divine Spirits on the bridge, Wu De was shocked and also puzzled.

"Should there be Divine Spirit corpses on the Reincarnation Path?" Xiao Mu asked strangely.

Wu De's words made him feel that something significant might have occurred on the Reincarnation Path.

Wu De muttered softly, "This is wrong, this shouldn't be, could it be that the Heavenly Court had a Great War, and Miaoyi also fell? Otherwise, how can this change in the Reincarnation Path be explained? Xiao boy..."

He called out to Xiao Mu again, explaining, "The presence of so many Divine Spirit corpses on the Reincarnation Path is extremely abnormal, there must have been an intense battle here."

"A battle between Divine Spirits, happening right on the Reincarnation Path controlled by Miaoyi, only suggests one possibility, that there was a rebellion in the Heavenly Court, Miaoyi has fallen, and someone pursued his followers to the Reincarnation Path, where a great battle took place."

Wu De's words shocked Xiao Mu.

If Miaoyi had fallen, then who was now in charge of the Reincarnation Path?

He couldn't help but ask this question out loud.

Wu De's reply surprised Xiao Mu, "Looking at the situation, the Reincarnation Path is uncontrolled, if someone was in charge of it, the Reincarnation Path absolutely would not have become like this."

"Look at these people walking over the Ghost Bridge, they are all resentful spirits, Yin Spirits produced after death. Are they reincarnating? No, they don't even know what they should be doing, they're just wandering aimlessly on the Ghost Bridge, completely clueless."

"That's why I'm saying, the Reincarnation Path has lost control, and the road to reincarnation has been broken."

"What?"

Xiao Mu was shocked. Despite having some suspicions earlier, hearing it from Wu De still stunned him tremendously.

Wu De continued, "Based on the condition of the Reincarnation Path, I surmise that Miaoyi has indeed perished."

"Furthermore, although Miaoyi has fallen, the authority to control the Reincarnation Path did not fall into the hands of the Heavenly Court rebels, otherwise, the Reincarnation Path wouldn't be out of control like it is now."

"With the Reincarnation out of control, the current Heavenly Court, although I do not know who is in command, clearly, the authority is not intact, at least not over reincarnation."

Xiao Mu was intensely shocked, Wu De's words were extremely impactful, almost leaving him dazed.

He had thought he was in the Netherworld, but to his surprise, it turned out to be the Reincarnation Path, which seemed to be a higher level than the Netherworld.

Xiao Mu voiced his thoughts.

"Netherworld? Ha!"

Wu De chuckled disdainfully, "There are many Netherworlds, and the Divine Spirits who manage them are called Netherlords."

"Netherlords are merely Divine Spirits, controlled by the Divine Monarchs managing reincarnation."

"There are four Divine Monarchs in the Heavenly Court, each managing one kind of authority: fate, reincarnation, retribution, life and death."

"There are eight Governors in the Heavenly Court, each in charge of one territory."

"Below the Governors, there are various types of Divine Spirits, such as the Thunder God, Electromother, Dragon King, Netherlord, and City God, among others."

"Among them, the Thunder God and Electromother are managed by retribution, Netherlords by reincarnation, and City Gods by the Governors."

"A mere Netherlord, how can they compare to a Heavenly Court Divine Monarch, their status is far inferior. Moreover, the Netherworld is merely a place that manages Yin Spirits, it is not involved in reincarnation."
