Chapter 147: Chapter 146: Six Paths Reincarnation Disk

"Ha ha..."

With a loud laugh, Meng Xiaopo said, "Brother Rufeng, not only do the Eight Ghosts need to drink the soup, but you and Niuniu must also drink it for safety’s sake."

Yan Rufeng was completely puzzled. "Sister Meng, what do you mean by that?"

Meng Xiaopo replied, "Without drinking the soup, how can they, with their current level of cultivation as just Ghost Kings, withstand the underworld’s malicious energy?"

"Malicious energy?"

Yan Rufeng continued, "Sister Meng, where does this malicious energy in the underworld come from?"

"Brother Rufeng,"

Meng Xiaopo said seriously, "Do you know that ever since Heaven and Earth transformed, people in the Human World began practicing spiritual cultivation, and their lifespans have been continuously increasing? In recent years, although I haven’t had much leisure, I noticed that the Human Path in the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk unexpectedly closed its passageway. Since then, the malicious energy in the underworld has been gradually increasing."

Yan Rufeng asked in confusion, "Sister Meng, could it be that there’s something wrong with the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk?"

Meng Xiaopo nodded.

Yan Rufeng continued, "How could something be wrong with the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk? It’s an Innate Treasure!"

Meng Xiaopo said, "Brother Rufeng, the Pangu Universe is different from other universes. On Earth, everyone can practice spiritual cultivation, but in other universes, not everyone can practice it. The natural order runs smoothly elsewhere, but on Earth, after the Heaven and Earth transformation, the order may have been disrupted due to everyone practicing cultivation. This could have caused the Human Path in the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk to stop functioning."

Yan Rufeng didn’t understand and asked, "Sister Meng, but this isn’t the first time Earth has experienced a mass cultivation phenomenon. Why didn’t the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk have issues before?"

"Because Saints and great gods maintained it in the past," Meng Xiaopo replied.

Yan Rufeng said, "What about the Ten Hall Yama? Can’t you ask them to resolve this?"

"Ha ha!"

Meng Xiaopo sneered, "In the current Pangu Universe, not only the Ten Hall Yama but all the Gods and Buddhas vanished mysteriously after the Investiture of the Gods. Now I’m the only one left in this vast underworld."

Yan Rufeng suddenly remembered something and thought, "No wonder my Master wanted me to refine the Heavenly Court and then save my senior brothers. It turns out the gods and Buddhas of all realms left this universe long ago..."

"So what do we do now?" Yan Rufeng asked.

Meng Xiaopo gave Yan Rufeng a sidelong glance, "If I knew what to do, I wouldn’t have asked you to help. If the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk comes to a complete standstill, this entire universe will collapse."

"What, it’s that serious?"

Yan Rufeng finally understood, thinking, "No wonder my Master told me to take everyone away from Earth 1500 years later. The problem lies with the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk..."

Yan Rufeng quickly said, "Sister Meng, although my cultivation is low, for the sake of all living beings, I will certainly help."

"He he,"

Meng Xiaopo laughed, "Brother Rufeng, stop being modest. I remember you have the cultivation of an Immortal Venerable. If you can’t solve this problem, even my true form wouldn’t be able to help."

Yan Rufeng said calmly, "Sister Meng, then let’s go inspect the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk."

Meng Xiaopo smiled, "Brother Rufeng, don’t rush. Drink the soup first."

"Is it really necessary?" Yan Rufeng asked.

"Absolutely," Meng Xiaopo replied firmly.

"Boo hoo~" Niuniu said tearfully, "Master, I don’t want to lose my memory. I don’t want to drink it."

"He he..."

Meng Xiaopo laughed, "Niuniu, don’t be afraid. The recipe for the soup has changed. Drinking it won’t make you lose your memory anymore."

While saying this, Meng Xiaopo glanced at Yan Rufeng and the Eight Ghosts, then continued, "I don’t know what flavors you like, so I can serve each of you a bowl."

"Sister Meng, drinking your soup really won’t make us lose our memory?" Niuniu asked innocently.

"When have I ever lied to you, Niuniu? Don’t worry," Meng Xiaopo said as she served a bowl of soup and handed it to Niuniu.

Niuniu, looking at the steaming bowl of soup, shook her head.

"He he,"

Meng Xiaopo laughed, "Niuniu, if you don’t believe me, watch this. I’ll drink it first."

Meng Xiaopo took a big gulp and then said, "See, I drank it and still remember you. Drink the soup so the malicious energy won’t enter your body and make you sick."

Niuniu asked innocently, "Sister, can I just take a small sip?"

Meng Xiaopo laughed, "Drink up, Niuniu. When we get to the depths of the underworld, you’ll see how much I care for you."

Meng Xiaopo handed the bowl to Niuniu.

"Sister Meng, are you sure the recipe for this soup has changed?" Yan Rufeng asked again.

Meng Xiaopo replied dismissively, "Brother Rufeng, trust me..."

Niuniu took a small sip and then exclaimed, "Wow, this soup is delicious!"

Niuniu then proceeded to drink the entire bowl in big gulps, finishing it in no time.

"Sister, this soup is so good. Can I have another bowl?"

Meng Xiaopo laughed, "Of course."

After drinking two large bowls of soup, Niuniu let out a satisfied burp and said, "Master, why aren’t you drinking? This soup is really delicious. I’m full, but can I take some to go?"

Niuniu licked her lips and looked eagerly at the pot.

"Um..."

Yan Rufeng was speechless, "Niuniu, is this soup really that good?"

Niuniu nodded earnestly.

Yan Rufeng laughed, "Sister Meng, then serve me a bowl as well."

"Coming right up."

Yan Rufeng took the bowl and sipped, feeling a sweet taste flowing down his throat, making him drink eagerly.

After finishing three bowls of Meng Po Soup, Yan Rufeng gave a thumbs-up and praised, "It’s been a thousand years, and Sister Meng’s culinary skills have improved greatly."

"Hm,"

"Of course..."

After the Eight Ghosts drank the soup to resist the malicious energy, Meng Xiaopo led Yan Rufeng and the group to the depths of the underworld.

The Six Paths Reincarnation Disk resembled a compass but was a million times larger. It was milk-white, with star-trail patterns on the back and mountain, river, and stream patterns on the front. It consisted of six layers: the first layer for the Immortal Path, followed by the Human Path, Demon Path, Demon Path, Evil Ghost Dao, and Beast Path. Each path rotated clockwise.

At the end of the underworld, Yan Rufeng saw that, except for the Beast Path, the other five paths of the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk had stopped rotating.

"Only the Beast Path is rotating on its own. No wonder the Eight Ghosts said the underworld wouldn’t accept them?" Yan Rufeng thought.

Meng Xiaopo said with great concern, "Brother Rufeng, once the Beast Path stops, this universe will collapse. As an Immortal Venerable, is there any way you can make the other five paths move?"

Yan Rufeng shook his head, "Sister Meng, although I was once an Immortal Venerable, I really don’t know how to make the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk rotate again."

"So what do we do?"

Meng Xiaopo began to ponder and after a long time, she said, "Brother Rufeng, wait here. I’ll try to contact my true form."

Yan Rufeng was puzzled, "Sister Meng, didn’t you say even your true form wouldn’t be able to solve this?"
