I, Superman, the Supreme Commander

"Sa!"

The wooden carvings of officials on both sides of the City God statue also came to life, transformed into ghosts in official uniforms, jumped off the altar, holding water and fire sticks and iron hooks and chains, and surrounded Yan Chixia.

Seeing the Yinchai's bad face, Yan Chixia hurriedly shouted: "Wait a minute! I come to pay a visit to the City God in the name of the Infinite Savior of the World."

"The Infinite Savior?"

"Among all the gods and Buddhas, I have never heard of such a name. Big Beard, are you trying to make fun of me?"

The City God was suspicious and was about to get angry when suddenly an unfathomable divine thought descended from the sky and enveloped the City God Temple.

The City God suddenly shuddered.

The terrifying aura in the divine consciousness was so powerful that the Yin gods in the City God Temple felt it most vividly. Their souls and bodies became blurred and they couldn't help but tremble with fear.

[Are you the City God of this county? ]

A mighty voice came from his mind, like a huge ocean wave or rumbling thunder, almost scaring the City God to the point of falling off the altar.

Realizing that the person in charge of the divine thought was a super boss, the City God hurriedly bowed in the air and said in panic: "Li Chunqiu, the City God of Guobei, greets the Infinite Heavenly Lord. I just neglected the messenger, I hope the Heavenly Lord will forgive me!"

All the ghosts and gods in the City God Temple immediately knelt down and shouted, "God, please forgive me."

[Master Li, don't panic. I asked Yan Chixia to come to you. I just want to ask you some questions. Just answer them truthfully.]

"Yes. I will tell you everything I know."

Li Chunqiu was in shock.

At the same time, I couldn’t help but wonder: Where did such a great god come from?

Aren’t all the true immortals and gods in heaven missing?

Zhang Hong communicated with the City God of Guobei through telepathy.

After some communication, I felt a little disappointed.

It turned out that Li Chunqiu had only been the City God for less than a hundred years, and no one knew why the gods and Buddhas disappeared back then.

According to him, he was the chief official of Guobei County during his lifetime. Because he was honest and did practical things for the people, he was officially canonized and worshipped by local people after his death, and thus became the City God.

He himself was a little surprised that he became the City God after his death.

Most of the ghost officials and gods under his command were local heroes, who were recruited by him to work in the City God Temple after their death.

According to Li Chunqiu, the previous city gods had already lost contact with the gods and Buddhas in the upper realms.

The most senior underworld god in the world today is Wen Chenggong, the City God of Kyoto in the capital city. He is in charge of the affairs of the underworld in the world.

Duke Wencheng's real name was Liu Bowen, the famous founding father of the Ming Dynasty. He was known as the reincarnation of Zhuge Liang and was highly respected.

Zhang Hong asked some more questions about the inner affairs of the underworld.

The underworld structure of this world is not much different from traditional Taoist mythology.

The underworld is divided into two parts. One is the Ten Halls of Yama and the Judge's Office in the underworld, which are responsible for arresting souls, judging and sending the dead souls to reincarnate. The other is the Underworld Office located in the human world, which is responsible for governing the demons and monsters in the human world and also helps the underworld to extradite wandering souls.

The structure of the Netherworld is based on the official system of the human dynasty, which is divided into three levels: county magistrate, prefectural magistrate, and state magistrate. Counties have city gods, and villages have land gods, who are responsible for governing a region, forming a superior-subordinate relationship.

However, according to Guobei City God, the world is now in chaos and faith has collapsed. In many places, the positions of land and city gods are vacant due to a lack of incense and sacrifices.

Yin spirits are also ghosts in the final analysis, but they are different from lonely ghosts. They are ghosts with "organizations".

Generally, ghosts rely on absorbing the yang energy or blood and flesh essence of living people to maintain their existence and gain magic power to improve their strength. They take the route of "evil ghosts".

Yin spirits are not contaminated by karma and are equivalent to "good ghosts".

The cultivation of a person is completely supported by the power of incense and vows. Without incense, the Yin God is just an empty shell, unable to defeat wild ghosts and monsters. After a long time, it can't even maintain the concentration of the soul and can only reincarnate.

Of course, being a Yin God also has its advantages, that is, one can enjoy the incense of thousands of families and the protection of official luck, accumulate merits, and enjoy wealth and glory in the future reincarnation.

Some of those who perform well can even be ranked among the immortals in the underworld, be named gods, and live as long as the heaven.

However, the matter of enthroning a true god has been impossible ever since the disappearance of the gods and Buddhas in heaven.

It is said that the enthronement of a true god requires the approval of heaven and the supervision of the heavenly court.

Nowadays, the gods in the underworld of the human world are all the outstanding talents of the human race who were enthroned by the human dynasty after their death and receive incense and worship from the people.

The whereabouts of all the orthodox Yin gods who were originally enthroned by the upper realm are unknown.

"Could it be that among the tens of thousands of gods and Buddhas, not a single one remained?"

Zhang Hong couldn't help but wonder.

It stands to reason that even if everyone moves together, there should be one or two gods who are attached to their homeland and reluctant to leave.

Even if we think of the worst case scenario, the gods and immortals are collectively attacked by the weapons of cause and effect, and all the gods and Buddhas are killed in an instant...

This is also almost impossible.

The Jade Emperor, Buddha, the Three Pure Ones and the Four Imperial Gods...those big guys should have some means to protect their lives.

"Your Excellency, I heard from my predecessor that there are still righteous gods in the underworld who were once enthroned by the Heavenly Court. But I have never seen them, so I don't know if it is true or not. Your Excellency might as well find a chance to go to the underworld to find out a little bit."

Guobei City God finally gave some useful information.

It seems that a trip to the underworld is imperative.

Zhang Hong called back Yan Chixia and the tree demon and asked them to get ready in Lanruo Temple.

Three days later, the Black Mountain Old Demon will get married, which happens to be the time when the barrier between the Yin and Yang worlds is at its weakest, and the two worlds can travel easily.

Zhang Hong prepared to go to the underworld in person to investigate the situation there.

As for danger... Zhang Hong didn't think there would be any danger with his current strength.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

This day is an auspicious day for the underworld demons.

At midnight, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew into Lanruo Temple.

The sound of the wind was like the howling of hundreds of ghosts, and dark clouds rolled in the sky, obscuring the moon and stars.

Zhang Hong, who was constantly deploying a telepathic force field to monitor his surroundings, immediately sensed abnormal fluctuations in the space around Lanruo Temple.

The Yang energy is extremely disordered and the Yin energy is boiling violently.

Zhang Hong immediately retracted his mental force field to avoid alerting the enemy.

To cheat customers, a cold magical power enveloped Lanruo Temple, which also contained an evil divine thought.

Lanruo Temple suddenly changed and emitted a bright red light.

As the light flowed, it suddenly changed from a dilapidated temple into a lively inn decorated with red lanterns and colorful lights.

Black cracks appeared in the inn, and hundreds of ghosts emerged from the cracks and transformed into mortal forms.

The musicians beating gongs and drums, the actors singing and juggling, and the people cheering and cheering, all wore bright red and purple festive clothes, as if they were holding a grand celebration, and the inn was extremely lively inside and outside.

If an ordinary person were present, they would think that there was a real wedding going on here, and the naked eye would not be able to see anything unusual.

However, after a cultivator with magical powers like Yan Chixia opened his third eye, what he saw was the influence of a multitude of demons dancing wildly.

The living people turned into ghosts with rotten bodies and hideous faces.

The wine turned into scarlet blood.

The dishes on the table, chicken, duck, fish and meat, turned into bloody pieces of meat and human heads and bones.
