CHAPTER 443: CHAPTER 290 SEVENTH RANK: SIN JUDGMENT CLERK

Unlike Lu Yan’s from-scratch development stage of the Underworld Path, this nascent Path of the Yellow Springs is essentially a modification of the Path of the Dead.

As one of the oldest Transcendent paths in the Mysterious World, the Path of the Dead naturally possesses a considerable number of Transcendents spread across the world.

Even though Lu Yan previously captured nearly all the higher echelons of the Council of the Dead in the Tomb of the Dead, there are still roughly over a thousand middle and lower sequence Transcendents on the Path of the Dead scattered across the world.

At this moment, with the Power of Mediation and Creation descending and forcing changes upon the world’s rules, these Transcendents who originally walked the Path of the Dead found their extraordinary characteristics unknowingly connected to the entirely new Path of the Yellow Springs.

In an instant, all the Transcendents of the Yellow Springs Path vaguely seemed to perceive a vast world outside this realm that had mysteriously established a connection with them.

The Yellow Springs, the symbolic root of the so-called Path of the Yellow Springs, also flowed beside every Transcendent of this path.

This step is of extreme significance.

It immediately elevated the Path of the Yellow Springs to become one of the major extraordinary paths within the Mysterious World upon its birth, possessing a number of Transcendents that ranked among the top.

Its influence and potential are far beyond those niche paths that require spreading faith from scratch.

Lu Yan sat on the divine throne, clearly sensing that as the Path of the Yellow Springs stabilized and replaced the Path of the Dead in the world’s rules, vast and pure feedback from rules, like rivers converging into the sea, continuously gathered from all corners of the real world, flowing into the small world of the Underworld, and ultimately merging with himself.

This feedback not only rapidly enhanced the cultivation of the Dao Golden Core, but also elevated his understanding and control over rules related to death, the end, and the Yellow Springs, raising them by more than one level.

He also perceived that the Path of the Yellow Springs, forcibly grafted onto him using the Power of Mediation and Creation, was undergoing self-perfection and adjustment under the guidance and revision of the grand order of the Divine Court and Underworld.

The magic potion formulas, promotion rituals, and even the names and core abilities of each sequence originally belonging to the Path of the Dead were undergoing profound changes from root to surface, making them more aligned with the essence of the Underworld and Yellow Springs.

Sequence Nine: Corpse Collector becomes Soul Guide. Its core ability is no longer merely dealing with corpses but has gained the ability to guide the souls of the deceased, ensuring they are not lost and preliminarily introducing them to the Yellow Springs.

Sequence Eight: Grave Digger becomes Spirit Guide. No longer just digging graves and cultivating remains, it can temporarily open a channel connecting the real world and the Underworld using itself as a coordinate, like a messenger walking briefly between the realms of life and death.

Sequence Seven: Living Corpse is renamed Funeral Master. The core ability undergoes a qualitative change, no longer manipulating corpses but obtaining the ability to alter the appearance of death itself, capable of fabricating causes of death and even interfering with shallow death-related destinies to a certain extent, organizing the final demeanor and mortal ties of the deceased.

Sequence Six: Ghost Soul is renamed Life and Death Clerk. Begins accessing the essence of the Underworld’s death rules, capable of consulting, recording, and, within the bounds of authority, limited modification of the Book of Life and Death information of non-ascending beings, preliminarily governing fate.

Sequence Five: Spirit Witch is renamed Judge of the Underworld...

Lu Yan was fully immersed in creating and revising the Path of Yellow Springs, experiencing an almost Creator-like wondrous sensation.

Every slight change in the world’s rules and every deepening and perfecting of the Yellow Springs Path imprint triggered a palpable feedback of rules power, nourishing his Dao Golden Core and propelling his cultivation to soar at an incredible speed.

As early as when he successfully created the Soul Detainer of the Underworld Path Sequence Eight, the rule gift brought by the creation of the path had already allowed him to smoothly break through and enter the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm.

And now, by leveraging the rule changes in replacing the Path of the Dead with the Yellow Springs Path, the power feedback was like vast rivers.

This is the gift presented by the Dao Golden Core, and once the understanding of heaven and earth is achieved, there are virtually no bottlenecks in cultivation.

Lu Yan advanced triumphantly until he finally steadily remained at Golden Core Great Perfection.

At this moment, his Dao Golden Core within was flawless and perfect, like a divine object favored by the cosmos.

If placed in some low-position smaller worlds, Lu Yan could even merge himself with the Dao via the Dao Golden Core.

Immersed in this wondrous state of rule evolution and cultivation soaring, Lu Yan almost forgot the passage of time.

He concentrated entirely on sorting out the residual rules of the Path of the Dead, combining them with the concepts of the Yellow Springs Underworld, constantly revising and perfecting them.

However, any creation and revision inevitably bring certain consumption.

Though the Path of the Dead, as an ancient path, has a profound accumulation of foundation, it is not infinite.

With the continued role of the Power of Mediation and Creation and the ongoing downward extension and perfection of the Yellow Springs sequence, the original rule foundation of the Path of the Dead was rapidly consumed through this intense change and remodeling.

Finally, when Lu Yan revised and stabilized the Yellow Springs Path up to the Sequence Five Judge of the Underworld level, he clearly felt that the support from the residual rules of the Path of the Dead had gradually weakened, making subsequent revisions exceptionally difficult.
