171: Chapter 171 Civilization Council

Immediately, the Incarnation used the power of his Yin Spirit to capture 100 wandering souls and threw them into the reincarnation lake formed by the convergence of rivers.

However, as soon as they were thrown in, the souls of these wandering spirits merged into the lake water; only a faint spark of true spirit, protected by the laws, returned to the mortal world to be reincarnated.

This reincarnation lake would cleanse the wandering souls of all their karmic sins and merits, as the current capabilities of the netherworld reincarnation lotus were not yet refined enough for precise processing.

Leaving behind their soul matter to nourish the entire Netherworld Realm, while the spark of true spirit reincarnated into a human fetus, could be considered the most rudimentary form of reincarnation.

After completing this step, the laws concerning reincarnation for the Lord of the Netherworld were further perfected, and simultaneously, the concept of humanity also developed.

Seeing this scene, the Incarnation sighed slightly.

"With the current quality of souls, they cannot maintain mature intelligence, let alone execute commands."

However, there was also a benefit to this; after the continuous baptism of the soul's true spirit, the true spirit would constantly grow stronger, which would help increase cultivation talent.

In the foreseeable future, as every human's true spirit continues to strengthen, it might even lead to a situation where everyone becomes a cultivator.

Yet, even now, despite having a good energy environment and cultivation techniques, a large portion of people still have absolutely no talent in this regard.

Reaching the 2nd level of human life is already the limit; wanting to go further and cultivate one's own True Qi stumps a vast number of people, not to mention the Qi of Essence, Energy, and Spirit required after the 5th level of life.

The current layout has almost reached its limit; these arrangements of land, architecture, and rivers all require the consumption of the Netherworld source to complete.

Naturally, it is not infinite. Keeping some to continue maintaining expansion, with the netherworld reincarnation lotus present, the speed of recovering this source is faster, and continuing to perfect the laws can also strengthen the speed of condensing the source.

Looking at the Netherworld Realm, which now possessed a hint of vitality, the Incarnation returned his Yin Spirit to his body.

"I still need to deal with these lingering wandering souls in the realm as soon as possible to allow for better development."

Regarding this, Wang An thought that perhaps a divine system could be established, granting some cultivators the talismanic summons to enter this place with their souls to work.

Of course, what specific technology is needed to achieve this remains to be considered.

After the Incarnation returned, society across all nations of the world had already erupted into chaos.

Because those four blood-colored barriers had completely dissipated, and the scene inside—where life had been devastated and nothing remained—completely stunned everyone.

Fear spread everywhere, as if the entire world were about to follow in the footsteps of those people.

The three disciples had also long been waiting in front of Yinhan Mansion for the Incarnation to come out of seclusion.

Upon seeing the Incarnation emerge, Lu Tianxin hurriedly spoke.

"Master, those billions of people, was it really done by that Star Beast? Everything outside is in a complete mess right now."

"Do not worry; that Star Beast has already been eliminated by me. Afterward, I will use my divine ability to completely cleanse the entire Blue Planet, which will be enough to completely sever the vitality of that Star Beast."

The three of them breathed a collective sigh of relief; it was truly horrifying that half of the Blue Planet's population had been lost.

Even though the three of them had achieved transcendence, it was difficult to accept for the moment.

"Prepare to summon all the Transcendents and the high-level officials of various countries; we need to discuss the planning for the next era."

"Yes."

The Incarnation's figure dissipated and reappeared above the Tianhe Dojo. He extended his Purple Mansion Divine Ability to cover a radius of a thousand miles, rapidly sweeping over all living beings on the ground and clearing away the residual spiritual fragments within their bodies.

Regarding this, everyone in the dojo only paused slightly, completely unaware of what had happened.

Soon, starting from the Tianhe Dojo, the Incarnation's divine ability covered the entire Blue Planet.

Lu Tianxin and the other two arrived at the base of the Association of Transcendents and Professionals in the Hekou Plain.

Seeing the representatives of various countries anxiously waiting for news here, Lu Tianxin said comfortingly.

"Master Tianhe Zhenren has already eliminated that Star Beast once again. This time, after advancing to the intermediate stage, he has the full ability to completely sever its vitality."

As this news arrived, everyone felt a sense of relief, and their expressions relaxed.

Without waiting for them to relay the information to their respective national leaders, Lu Tianxin spoke again.

"There is one more thing: contact the high-level leaders of your respective countries to come to the Tianhe Dojo for a meeting."

He then said to General Wang, "General Wang, the high-level officials of China should represent us and send invitations to the countries that have not yet joined. We will convene a United Nations General Assembly to discuss the direction of the world after this incident."

After the three left, the representatives immediately went to the communication room and used communication artifacts to report the news from here to their respective countries.

As for other Transcendent beings, they could each use communication artifacts, so notifying them was not much trouble.

As the management of the Association, they could naturally notify every Transcendent.

After dealing with the spiritual residues in Asia and Europe, the Incarnation came to Africa and looked at the land, which was filled with blood energy, resentment, and death energy.

"It seems that if not dealt with in time, it is very likely that some evil creatures will be born."

He raised his Purple Mansion Divine Ability, and a galaxy spanning a thousand miles covered the land, sweeping countless dead wandering souls, ghosts, blood energy, resentment, and death energy all at once into the Netherworld Realm.

The wandering souls entered the City of Wrongful Death, and the ghosts were thrown directly into the reincarnation lake, decomposing into soul matter to replenish the realm, while some memory fragments were sorted and preserved by the status.

As for the Heaven and Earth Qi, it was transformed into three lakes for storage.

"Retaining these may make it possible to give birth to spiritual plants with specific attributes in the future, perfecting the relevant laws."

This magnificent display of divine ability was also observed by Exploration Teams organized by some countries to investigate.

After the Incarnation finished his rounds and completed the cleanup, Wizard Merlin, Mage Ryan, Saint Laye, Li Feibai, Grandmaster Li Xiping, Li Zhenyun from the Confucian, Daoist, and Buddhist schools, Daoist Master Sumu, and Councillor Yixiu soon arrived.

After they arrived, they saw that the meeting venue was already being set up at the central plaza, along with communication artifacts.

This assembly would determine the fate of all humanity, and at the same time, the meeting would be broadcast to all of humanity via communication artifacts.

Daoist Master Sumu, dressed in a simple Daoist robe and wearing a pair of small glasses, said to Councillor Yixiu who was beside him.

"Brother Daoist, where do you think we will go from here?"

Councillor Yixiu recited a Buddhist chant before speaking.

"With the strength and vision of Tianhe Zhenren, he will naturally guide our future direction."

One day later, all currently remaining countries sent representatives to attend this meeting.

In the central plaza, thousands of seats were arranged in a huge circle.

In addition to official representatives from various countries, there were also outstanding high-level life forms, journalists, and representatives from various circles.

Sitting at the very front was a semi-circle of 12 seats; apart from the Incarnation, all other Transcendents had already arrived.

In the outside society, people watched through the broadcast artifacts as the Transcendents, who were usually rarely seen, appeared here, and they discussed it animatedly.
