"Correct."
"That's right, it's the Book of Life and Death."
The heavy voice reverberated, immediately drowned out by the wind and sand of the desert.
Du Mingsheng looked at the chaotic humanoid with reverence, cautiously saying:
"I heard you mention that the figure of interest once ruled the land of the dead, the abode of the Yin World Netherworld, so I guessed... the Ancient Book might be connected to them."
The True Man nodded faintly, chaotic Qi flowing:
"You guessed correctly. The former honorifics of that figure of interest were 'Central Pole Sect Leader', 'Emperor of the Underworld', and 'Nine Netherworlds Sin-Extinguishing Celestial Venerate'.
Du Mingsheng was startled by these titles.
He heard the True Man continue to speak to themselves:
"And their responsibilities back then were rather simple."
"Nothing more than..."
The True Man's voice suddenly turned solemn and majestic, with a sense of chanting:
"Positioned in the Netherworld, ruling Youdu."
