To be honest, although the Great Celestial Venerable is said to rule the Three Realms, that is only in name.
The true ruler of the underworld is Lady Pingxin, while the Pingxin of your world, tsk tsk tsk, is actually Houtu transformed into.
Although it seems that Houtu has disappeared, do you think that's possible?
In the great war between the Lich King and the Witch King, both sides suffered heavy losses, with the Witch King's forces almost completely wiped out.
Moreover, and most importantly, all of the twelve Ancestral Witches, except for Houtu, are already dead.
However, the relationship between the Twelve Ancestral Witches is extraordinary.
They were born together, siblings, their relationship is extraordinary.
If the other eleven Ancestral Witches were truly dead, then Houtu would be able to remain calm.
Not to mention that Hongjun suppressed it with the power of the Heavenly Dao.
This was uncontrollable; just the fact that these ancestral witches, after getting angry, even broke Zhou Mountain, also known as Buzhou Mountain, directly.
In this kind of reckless situation, what do you think can restrain them?
Especially the matter of Houtu transforming into reincarnation. Even if Houtu transforms into reincarnation, what if it really erupts?
He carried the cycle of reincarnation directly and charged forward without regard for anything else. Not to mention Hongjun, even the Heavenly Dao would have to give way.
However, Houtu did not do that. Why is that?
It's because the Twelve Ancestral Witches didn't completely die.
I estimate that a large portion of the witch clan has entered the underworld.
The Twelve Ancestral Witches have probably already been resurrected and are likely deep within the underworld.
Perhaps their strength has even changed considerably. So, the power of the underworld... well, when they're not moving, they're just a bunch of Yin spirits.
If they were truly enraged, they would be like the ancient witch army.
Let alone the current Heavenly Court, even the Heavenly Court during the reign of the Heavenly Emperor Donghuang was destroyed, wasn't it?
In short, don't underestimate the underworld.
The Underworld appears to be a subordinate agency of the Heavenly Court, but this is only in name. If the Underworld refuses to obey, there's nothing the Heavenly Court can do!
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong's lips twitched, and he said:
"Is my world really that dangerous?"
Jiang Zhen: "Nonsense, the Journey to the West evolved from the Great Primordial World! Tsk tsk tsk, this is extremely dangerous!"
Anyway, do you want to come down with me and take a look? Although I'm not invincible, protecting you is a piece of cake.
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong nodded emphatically and said:
"Really? That's great! Let's do it your way. Perfect timing, I also want to visit the underworld!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhen waved his hand without saying a word, and a spatial-temporal force appeared around the two of them. Then, the two of them disappeared from the spot.
Then, he appeared directly in the underworld.
At this moment, after the two arrived here, they saw that the Black and White Impermanence had just arrived.
After following the two, they arrived at the Hall of Yama.
Then they saw Yama, the King of Hell, sitting there, looking at the Black and White Impermanence who had returned empty-handed. He frowned and said:
"Old Xie, Old Fan, what's going on? Where's the monkey's soul?"
Hearing this, Xie Bi'an shook his head helplessly and said:
"There's nothing we can do. We don't know what's going on with that monkey's soul. It's incredibly resilient and can even withstand the Soul-Locking Chains."
Even the soul-locking chains sent by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva were directly countered after touching the monkey's soul.
This time, we brothers have no other choice!
Upon hearing this, Yama, the King of Hell, widened his eyes in disbelief.
"No, Lao Xie, you must be joking. This is a soul-locking chain sent by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva!"
That monkey is at most a Taiyi level cultivator. With the Soul-Locking Chain, it can easily lock the soul of a Taiyi Golden Immortal.
How could this possibly happen!
Xie Bi'an shook his head, took out the Soul-Locking Chains, and said:
"I don't know, anyway, there's no way to help. Why don't you come and take a look?"
Upon hearing this, Yama waved his hand, and the Soul-Locking Chain fell into his grasp.
Then, Yama's terrifying face looked even more frightening.
"Something's not right. The markings on these are starting to wear off!"

"What? Wear and tear? That's impossible, absolutely impossible! We haven't tampered with this thing before!"
Upon hearing this, Yama, the King of Hell, shook his head:
"I know that this is not something you can do."
This Buddha seal was created by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva after all; you don't have that ability!
However, this situation arose because you used this thing to lock Sun Wukong's soul.
It seems that Sun Wukong is no ordinary person; he must have obtained some extraordinary opportunity from somewhere.
He gained an extremely terrifying level of soul cultivation.
However, this matter has nothing to do with us anymore.
You all go back first. I'll go find Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. We need to inform the Bodhisattva about this matter!
Upon hearing this, the Black and White Impermanence exchanged a glance, then said something and left the Yama Palace.
At that moment, Yama, the King of Hell, took the Soul-Locking Chain and left.
Seeing this, Sun Wukong looked at Jiang Zhen and said:
Should we follow them?
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhen shook his head and said:
"No rush, wait a moment, there should be other people here."
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong looked at Jiang Zhen with a puzzled expression.
Just after Yama left, a figure appeared here.
This person looked very strange, and his whole body exuded an extremely terrifying aura.
It's as if they could tear the world apart with the slightest gesture.
As soon as the person appeared, he frowned, and a silver glint flashed in his eyes.
"Hmm? That's strange! I clearly felt like I was being watched, but I can't see anything. Could it be that I'm imagining things?"
After speaking, the person pointed in the air, and in an instant, spatial ripples appeared in the air.
Upon witnessing this scene, Sun Wukong's expression changed. Just as he was about to do something, Jiang Zhen grabbed him, shook his head, and said:
"Don't get excited, this little thing can't even touch us."
As Jiang Zhen finished speaking, the spatial ripples touched the two of them, but seemed to pass right through them.
There were no other fluctuations.
The figure opposite frowned upon seeing this scene before speaking:
"Strange! Nobody's here. Could they have left, or am I just imagining things? This shouldn't be happening!"
Forget it, let's go back and talk about it first!
After saying that, the figure disappeared from the spot, as if it had directly merged into the space.
Seeing this, Sun Wukong was also shocked.
"The power of space, that's the law of space!"
Jiang Zhen: "What, are you shocked?"
Sun Wukong shook his head and said:
"No, I'm just a little surprised to see something like this here!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong took a deep breath and then said:
"By the way, what method did you use just now? It looked so powerful."
His spatial ripples had absolutely no effect?
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhen chuckled and said:
"Hehe, that's normal, it's just a space."
We appear to be in one place, but we are not in the same time and space.
His spatial ripples can detect the existence within the space he is in.
However, we cannot touch each other at different times.
But I never expected this one to show up too. Looks like you're quite the lovable monkey!
Sun Wukong: "You know him?"
Jiang Zhen: "Hehe, in the entire prehistoric world, there are only a handful of beings who possess such spatial mastery."
Those who can use spatial power so easily are extremely rare.
Besides the long-vanished Yangmei Daxian, the other one is Dijiang, one of the twelve ancestral witches of that time.
Dijiang, who controls the Dao of Space, is incredibly powerful and is the leader of the Twelve Ancestral Witches. He can be considered one of the most powerful beings below the level of a Saint.
"And in this underworld, besides this person, I really can't think of anyone else with such spatial mastery who could achieve this."
Sun Wukong blinked, then said:
