A group of devil soldiers stopped in front of Gu Qing Shan.
「 You awake? 」
The leader of the devil soldiers crouched down and asked.
“Ah… What is this place?” Gu Qing Shan opened his eyes and asked.
Looking around, he found that some dead people were occasionally being washed onto the rocky shore, with different groups of devil soldiers watching over a specific section, ready to receive those dead people whenever they got washed up.
A bit further away, another dead person had also just awoken as well.
After taking a look, another group of devil soldiers loudly called out: 「 It’s a normal person! 」
They then dragged that dead person away and tossed him into the other side of the riverbank.
Splash!
Before the dead person was able to say anything, he sank straight to the bottom and was quickly taken away by the flow.
——-the Forgetting River.
1
The other side of this riverbank was the Forgetting River.
As soon as one entered the Forgetting River, they would forget everything and head into reincarnation.
Gu Qing Shan pondered what he had just witnessed.
After reincarnating, any living being would thoroughly become part of the Samsara without fail.
But as long as one doesn’t reincarnate, they would temporarily not be under the Samsara’s control, which was the loophole that the Eternal Mind Seizer had taken advantage of in the past.
As he was thinking, a devil soldier humbly spoke to him:
「 This place is Huang Quan, as far as you need to know, it’s a different afterlife, the details don’t matter yet. Now please tell me, what kind of Professionist were you before you died? 」
Gu Qing Shan regained his senses and looked back at the devil soldier.
Normal people are tossed straight into the Forgetting River to reincarnate.
Do Professionists have other uses?
He answered without hesitation: “I was a necromancer”
「 You were a necromancer? 」the devil soldier asked again.
“Right” Gu Qing Shan affirmed.
「 What can you summon? 」the devil soldier pursued the question.
Gu Qing Shan smirked and turned his gaze towards the void of space.
Lines of bloody red text were hovering there:
[You are the Death God of the Twin Rivers of Life and Death]
[The True Devil of Antiquity, Overlooker of Myriad Realms had obscured your identity, and once again bestowed upon you the authority of Death God using the power of the Saint Realm]
[——You can summon the living beings of the River of Death as you wish to fight for you]
[Attention:]
[This is known only to you, others cannot discern your true depths]
Gu Qing Shan shrugged: “Sir, I can awaken the dead to fight for me”
He reached his hand out and grabbed the air.
[Death God’s Summon]!
The ground of the rocky riverbank began to shift as several dead people started to climb out from below.
These dead people were equipped with tattered armor while wielding various different weapons, all of them silently standing behind Gu Qing Shan.
“These are all normal soldiers, if I need to fight, I’d summon a few more powerful entities” Gu Qing Shan explained.
The devil soldiers were stunned as they looked at the dead knights.
What do you mean ‘normal soldiers’?
These knights all exude a strong murderous aura as well as a thick aura of rotting death.
—–they are definitely battle-hardened veterans.
The devil soldier took a profound look at Gu Qing Shan, then handed a red badge to one of his subordinates.
「 Go, bring this—– excellency back for registration 」
「 Yes sir 」
The devil soldier’s subordinate received the red badge and approached Gu Qing Shan.
「 Your excellency, the others will have to wait here to receive the dead people of the River of Death, please come with me for registration 」
“Registration?”
Gu Qing Shan asked while slowly standing up from the rocky riverbank, his necromantic mana flowed through his body to dry his mage robe.
「 Yes, with your excellency’s strength, it’s such a waste to head straight into reincarnation, so your excellency must first register within the records before entering the Metamorphosis Pond to be transmuted into one of us, a Huang Quan devil 」the devil soldier respectfully explained.
Gu Qing Shan stayed silent, then smiled: “Very well, lead the way”
——what ‘Metamorphosis Pond’, that’s definitely a new measure created by the Samsara to directly convert powerful dead people within the River of Death into the forces of Huang Quan.
During that process, it would also screen for those with questionable backgrounds.
The devil soldier led Gu Qing Shan away from the intersection of the River of Death and the Forgetting River, heading towards a nearby palace.
With a single glance, Gu Qing Shan recognized the palace right away.
——it was the Hall of Reincarnation.
The center of power that managed all of Huang Quan’s businesses.
He and the devil soldier soon arrived at the Hall of Reincarnation.
Several long queues had already formed here with a large number of awakened dead people accompanied by devil soldiers, all of whom were waiting for their turn to enter the Hall of Reincarnation.
As Gu Qing Shan was about to stand in line as well, the devil soldier said: 「 Your excellency, we can go straight inside 」
“Oh? Why?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 Your strength is incomparable to these people, and your ability is extremely well-suited to our Huang Quan 」the devil soldier respectfully explained.
He then raised the red badge into the air and shouted: 「 By this badge, reporting! 」
The red badge flew into the air towards the Hall of Reincarnation, quickly disappearing out of sight.
「 Let’s go, our superiors have already been notified 」
The devil soldier informed Gu Qing Shan.
“Alright”
Gu Qing Shan continued to follow the devil soldier while observing the queues.
A few of the dead people there were overflowing with a green aura of vitality, some were even radiating holy light.
——although they’re also ability users, they definitely won’t be treated very well in a place like Huang Quan.
Wood-type healing techniques aren’t that useful here, considering that everyone is already dead and death can’t be healed.
As for holy light…
If a dead person radiated holy light all over their body, they’d most likely exorcize themselves in no time at all, essentially dying again on the spot.
——that can’t feel good.
In that case, the identity of ‘necromancer’ is quite suitable as a disguise—— especially to conceal the fact that I’m the Death God.
Gu Qing Shan silently thought.
The Overlooker of Myriad Realms must have thought quite carefully when they prepared these identities for me.
1
Gu Qing Shan felt grateful and silently thought to himself.
The next time they want to eat something, I should spend some effort to prepare it without fail.
They didn’t talk at all on the way.
The devil soldier led him past the long waiting group and directly entered the Hall of Reincarnation.
Two official-looking people immediately stepped forward and clasped their hands towards Gu Qing Shan: 「 It must have been a difficult journey, please first enter the Metamorphosis Pond and complete your transmutation 」
Gu Qing Shan acted like he was imitating them and clumsily clasped his hands together: “If I may ask, what exactly does the Metamorphosis Pond do?”
One of the officials smiled: 「 When two afterlife worlds fuse together, the dead people within would naturally feel a sense of being mismatched; the Metamorphosis Pond is a construct of the two worlds’ fusion, it will allow awakened dead people to become accepted by the newly fused world, making it more convenient for them overall 」
“So, a kind of identity recognition” Gu Qing Shan summarized.
「 That is the case, your excellency’s understanding of a world’s Laws are indeed profound, please enter the Pond swiftly 」the official respectfully smiled.
Gu Qing Shan looked where he was pointing.
In a small corner of the Hall of Reincarnation, a small spring was spewing just enough water to fill a pond, over which a thick mist drifted.
At the same time, several devil generals who were fully equipped with armor stood around the room while keeping their eyes on him.
“Very well, I’ll give it a try”
Gu Qing Shan swiftly made his way to the Metamorphosis Pond and jumped down.
As he sank into the water, lines of bloody red text appeared in front of his vision:
[You were indeed a powerful entity within the River of Death]
[The Samsara has confirmed this fact]
[Your setting has been recognized by the Samsara, from this point on, you can join the Samsara’s worlds without worry]
[You’ve retained your strength, your identity has also finished being converted]
[From this point onwards, you are an entity of Huang Quan]
[P.s: Within the Samsara, only ‘karma’ cannot be erased]
[Although you’ve lost all of your past identities, you were still the previous Huang Quan Devil King, and now the God of the River of Death]
[If you can retrieve the Scythe of Death, or the Devil King Warden Rod, your power will be jointly promoted by both worlds]
2
All the text faded away.
The power of Huang Quan that was previously in hibernation began to flow out from his Thought Sea.
This power was so condensed that it almost appeared as a glittering dark golden glow, almost visibly radiating from his body to manifest as a supernatural phenomenon.
This was the true power of the Death God!
Gu Qing Shan focused his mind.
In an instant, the golden glow vanished without a trace.
Since the supernatural phenomenon disappeared before it fully manifested, it didn’t alert the people in the palace hall.
Shu—-
Gu Qing Shan jumped back out from the Metamorphosis Pond.
At this point, the two officials’ eyes were a lot friendlier.
「 Congratulations your excellency for joining Huang Quan, I believe I neglected to ask your excellency’s name? 」one of the officials said.
“Rhode” Gu Qing Shan replied.

「 Very well, Rhode—— take this and go choose some personal belongings for yourself 」the official said.
He took out a badge that was engraved with the word [Reincarnation] and handed it to Gu Qing Shan.
“What’s this?” Gu Qing Shan curiously asked.
The official smiled and answered with a slightly stern expression: 「 You will know very soon. At the moment, a huge clash for supremacy is being conducted within the Samsara world, and all of the Samsara’s Divine Artifacts are currently under our protection 」
“You mean, I can go ahead and choose a Divine Artifact?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
The official appeared shocked and hurriedly replied: 「 That’s not it at all! 」
The other official explained: 「 In reality, there are many other treasures that didn’t belong to the Samsara that were retrieved and are being stored here in Huang Quan, you are allowed to choose one item among the non-Samsara treasures 」
“Any single item I want?” Gu Qing Shan asked in surprise.
The official cleared his throat and answered: 「 The treasures are categorized into the ranks of A, B, C, and D; you can only choose one item among the rank D treasures, after all, this is a free benefit 」
“What about the better treasures?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 You have one day of complete freedom to visit the various places in Huang Quan and better understand this world, after that, you’ll understand 」the official said.
Gu Qing Shan sighed.
The twin swords Heaven and Earth, Chao Yin, and Adorable are all non-Samsara treasures, and here I thought I’d be able to retrieve them all at once.
Turns out it was just wishful thinking.

“Very well, please lead me to the vault” Gu Qing Shan said.
「 Please 」
Gu Qing Shan was quickly led in front of a large closed gates behind the palace hall.
「 Please use the badge 」the official told him.
Gu Qing Shan raised the badge towards the gates.
The gates then swung open with a heavy noise.
The inside of the gates was a long hallway that made it impossible to tell where it led.
「 I’ll give you some advice, don’t waste too much time here, just choose something you can use—– there isn’t anything especially great here anyways 」the official said.
“So rank D consists of the lowest level of treasures, you mean?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 Yes, just choose a weapon you can use, or an armor, those are the most practical 」the official admitted.
Gu Qing Shan nodded and entered the hallway.
The gates closed by themselves behind him.
