“Do you know what this place is?” Shelly asked.
“The Underworld!”
“That’s right. This place is the Underworld, a place to suppress the Underworld God. Now that the Underworld God had met his demise, do you think Dairaionji Temple will continue suppressing this realm?”
Alex’s heart skipped a beat. “You mean…”
“This world will return to its original state in three days at most. All the trialists who came in will be cleared out and be returned to their original places,” Shelly said. “Thus, if you want to acquire Grand’s things, you must seize the time and act… Moreover, you still have to find the Pool of Afterlife if you want to realize the bone patterns that you’ve earned in this place.”
Shelly told favonovel.com that there was a deep, hidden secret in the Pool of Afterlife. If favonovel.com wanted to enter Dairaionji Temple, favonovel.com had to find the opportunity in the Pool of Afterlife.
Alex nodded, indicating that favonovel.com understood.
Then, favonovel.com selectively informed everyone of the information favonovel.com had received after his divine consciousness returned to his body.
Shirley asked, “But, where exactly is the Pool of Afterlife? No one knows!”
“Actually, I already know,” Alex said.
The Pool of Afterlife was the Grand Bodhisattva’s greatest treasure, wasn’t it?!

A day later, the golden bamboo boat reached the land. After going ashore, Alex headed to pick up the twenty four formation flags in passing. Two days later, the golden bamboo boat reached Corpse King City in the south.
Corpse soldiers were once all over the place there and killed thousands of trialists. Daya, Shirley, Ynes, and Pigsy almost met their demise there.
Shirley pointed at a city gate and said, “Channing passed away here.”
Daya looked sorrowful. He was favonovel.com former subordinate and had actually died protecting her.
“Guys, wait for me!” Daya walked over and stood at the spot where Channing died before sighing softly.
“Channing, from now on, as long as I’m alive, no one can bully the Hendersons. This is my promise to you.”
Alex, Mystic Maiden, Shirley, Ynes, Daya, and Pigsy all came over. Companions who had traversed the Underworld together, it was comradeship that had grown from scratch to depending on each other in this unfamiliar world.
Over there, the few of them had worked together to build a gravestone for Channing. After that, the group entered Corpse King City.
Thanks to the Grand Bodhisattva’s last will projected into Alex’s sea of consciousness, they soon found the location of his treasure. It was an underground shrine, one that was extremely large.
When the crowd saw the complete appearance of the shrine, they were all shocked. It surprisingly looked exactly like Shoraionji Temple in its full manifestation. The gate was tightly closed.
Using brute force was out of the question.
Eventually, Alex opened the gate and successfully found the Pool of Afterlife by relying on the Grand Bodhisattva’s consciousness.
“This is the Pool of Afterlife.”
“Although we still have a day, based on conservative estimates, it’d be hard to guarantee that it won’t happen before that.”
“Now, I’ll set up a formation. Everyone, take out all the bones containing bone patterns. After you’re done using them, jump into the Pool of Afterlife to revive your flesh!”
However, the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens was so dissatisfied that favonovel.com stomped favonovel.com foot out of rage. “Where are the promised treasures? Where are the spiritual herbs? Where are the magical treasures? How could there be nothing? How could favonovel.com be so poor? Did favonovel.com even live up to the standard of the Underworld God?”
