Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings

What’s being stewed in the clay pot?

Do you even need to ask?

That clay pot is definitely stewing dog meat!

Lin Yuan has already eaten it, and the taste is exceptionally delicious.

”Of course, it’s dog meat, what else could it be?” Lin Yuan asked, somewhat puzzled.

Upon hearing Lin Yuan’s response, Yin Celestial Son shook his head and laughed, ”Not so, not so.”

”What is stewing in the clay pot is not dog meat, but Yang Jing’s past.”

Yang Jing’s past?

Lin Yuan was utterly bewildered upon hearing Yin Celestial Son’s words.

This was getting more cryptic; Yang Jing’s past was being cooked as dog meat?

”The clay pot is clearly stewing dog meat, yet you say it’s Yang Jing’s past.”

”Is Yang Jing’s past the Daoist Ancestor?”

”Do you mean that the Daoist Ancestor is a dog?” Lin Yuan asked with a confused look.

Lin Yuan thought, Yin Celestial Son! Yin Celestial Son, you’re a respectable person too.

You are both Tier One with the Daoist Ancestor, how can you go and insult the Daoist Ancestor by calling him a dog like that?

”Yang Jing wants to be human, a true human.”

”His obstacle to becoming human is his past.”

”He is cutting ties with his past, and what is stewing in the clay pot is his past.”

”When he completely severs his past, there will be no more Void Ancestor, only Yang Jing of the Human Race!” explained Yin Celestial Son.

Previously, when Lin Yuan was in the Underworld, he wanted to meet Yang Jing alone.

Yin Celestial Son felt uneasy, so he continually observed Lin Yuan’s situation.

When Yang Jing appeared with the clay pot, Yin Celestial Son arrived immediately.

It was because Yin Celestial Son could see at a glance what was stewing in the clay pot.

It looked like dog meat, but in reality, it was Yang Jing cutting ties with his past.

When one day, Yang Jing’s shop closes for good, it indicates that he has completely severed his past.

He has shed the past of the Daoist Ancestor, becoming a real person.

After Yin Celestial Son’s explanation, Lin Yuan also confirmed that Yang Jing was no longer a threat.

Because Yang Jing didn’t just start killing dogs and selling meat recently.

Rather, he had begun killing dogs and selling meat long ago.

This means Yang Jing had long decided to sever his own past.

Moreover, Yang Jing had concerns.

Yang Jing’s concern was his sister, Yang Chan; back then, for Yang Chan, Yang Jing almost lost his life.

No, it should be said that if Lin Yuan hadn’t saved him, Yang Jing would already be dead.

At that time, Yang Jing was still experiencing the mystery of the womb, with no memory of the Daoist Ancestor having awakened.

”Wait!”

”Yang Jing and Yang Chan are siblings born of the same mother. If Yang Jing is the reincarnation of the Daoist Ancestor.”

”Then, what’s the story with Yang Chan?” Lin Yuan asked Yin Celestial Son.

Yin Celestial Son smiled nonchalantly and replied, ”There was never Yang Jing in this world because, with the Daoist Ancestor’s reincarnation, Yang Jing appeared.”

”If the Daoist Ancestor hadn’t reincarnated, there would only be Yang Chan.”

”The Daoist Ancestor’s reincarnation is the cause, and Yang Jing is the effect.”

”Regardless of anything, Yang Jing and Yang Chan have the same blood flowing in them.”

”Whether he chooses to be the Void Ancestor or Yang Jing of the Human Race depends on his own choice.”

”There’s no doubt he prefers to be Yang Jing of the Human Race.”

”He wants to be Yang Jing of the Human Race; we might as well fulfill his wish, as it’s far better to have one more friend than one more enemy.”

Yin Celestial Son’s words made sense, and Lin Yuan couldn’t come up with any counterarguments.

Moreover, from the bottom of his heart, Lin Yuan also hoped that Yang Jing would be a friend rather than an enemy.

After pondering for a long time, Lin Yuan said to Yin Celestial Son, ”Please also help keep an eye on Peng City for me; Peng City is very important to me.”

Yang Jing has his own connections; if Yang Jing’s connection is Yang Chan.

Then Lin Yuan’s connection is in Peng City.

Even knowing that Yang Jing poses no threat to him, if Yang Jing remains in Peng City, Lin Yuan still feels some anxiety.

Fortunately, there is Yin Celestial Son; the Underworld connects the Real World and the Mysterious World.

Everything in these two worlds falls under Yin Celestial Son’s surveillance.

Even if Yang Jing tries to stir up trouble in Peng City, Yin Celestial Son can intervene immediately.

With Yin Celestial Son watching over Peng City, Lin Yuan can finally relax.

”You are me, and I am you.”

”Keeping an eye on Peng City is only natural; no need for such formalities, my friend!” Yin Celestial Son said slowly.

With Yin Celestial Son’s help in watching over Peng City, the burden on Lin Yuan’s heart was finally eased.

Without any worries, Lin Yuan can confidently battle against Wa Huang, Buddha, and the Demon Lord in the Mysterious World.

Heaven and the Void cannot coexist; either the Void swallows Heaven, or Heaven swallows the Void.

In the ultimate battle between Heaven and the Void, the Mysterious World is the front line, while the Real World is the rear.

Lin Yuan must ensure that when he is at the front line, there are no fires breaking out at the rear.

After Yin Celestial Son brought Lin Yuan back to the Underworld, he didn’t stay long and proceeded to the Mysterious World.

...

...

Mysterious World.

Ever since the World Honored was dealt with, the Mysterious World has been in a state of tranquility.

The radicals, led by the World Honored, were practically wiped out, and under the leadership of peaceful Great Demons like Elder Bai and the Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder, conflicts in the Mysterious World have significantly reduced.

Everyone is diligently cultivating, in hopes that when Heaven swallows the Void, they can quickly attain enlightenment.

Of course, they are still far from reaching the realm of the World Honored back then.

Therefore, to quickly attain enlightenment after Heaven swallows the Void, one must strive hard in cultivation.

Even when Heaven swallows the Void, and the number of Tier Ones is no longer limited in Heaven and Earth, only a very few can truly attain enlightenment.

For many, enlightenment is merely a distant dream.

When Lin Yuan returned to the Mysterious World, the black and white lights above Elder Bai and the others’ heads had disappeared.

This was because Yin Celestial Son had withdrawn the magic cast on the Book of Life and Death.

When Elder Bai and the others saw the black and white lights disappear, they knew Lin Yuan’s problem had been resolved.

East Sea.

Upon seeing Lin Yuan, Elder Bai was the first to speak up and ask, ”Did you find the reincarnation of the Daoist Ancestor?”

Lin Yuan nodded and replied, ”Found!”

”Killed? Or did you send him back to the Void?” Elder Bai continued to ask tentatively.

Lin Yuan shook his head and answered, ”Neither; I didn’t send him back to the Void, but rather left him in Peng City.”

Subsequently, Lin Yuan recounted the events to Elder Bai as though pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.

Elder Bai belonged to the core members of Lin Yuan’s team, and ever since the dean was gone, Elder Bai had become the most reliable strategist in the team.

After listening to Lin Yuan’s account, Elder Bai was silent for a moment and said, ”Leaving him is fine!”

”Having two against three is certainly better than having one against three.”

The so-called ’two against three’ refers to Yin Celestial Son and the Daoist Ancestor, both Tier Ones, going against Wa Huang, the Demon Lord, and Buddha, all three of whom are Tier Ones.
