Chapter 858: Revisiting the Underworld (Second Update)

"Is that so? Then we'll wait a bit."

Elder God nodded with a smile and introduced Jerry:

"Grand Master Lao is the deity who oversees the passage between the Netherworld and the mortal realm. She has lived for several tens of thousands of years. When you meet her, be sure to show her the utmost respect.

The burning Soulforge before you is a divine artifact that opens the passage between the two realms. The smoke it emits allows souls to enter the Netherworld for registration.

If the forge were to go out, it would take two thousand years to relight it, and chaos would ensue in the mortal world."

While Grand Master Lao was still absent, Elder God hurriedly imparted this essential knowledge to Jerry, which all deities should know.

Jerry listened, inwardly marveling at the vast differences between worlds.

In his previous life, Grand Master Lao was known as the embodiment of Laozi, one of the Three Pure Ones and the Venerable Lord of Morality. In this world, she was the guardian of the passage between the Netherworld and the mortal realm.

However, it didn't matter much to him; he had encountered many such differences across various worlds.

In those Magicmini Worlds, Merlin was almost always present, but his origins and background varied widely in each one.

"Who is this?"

The small old man with a halo above his head, noticing that a living human youth was being introduced to the knowledge of the gods, couldn't help but feel curious.

"This is Jerry, my chosen successor. Speaking of which, you two are actually connected; he can be considered your junior disciple."

Elder God first introduced Jerry to the old man, then explained to Jerry:

"His name is Son Gohan. You've probably heard of him. He is now Grand Master Lao's guardian."

"Ah, Gohan-senpai, I've often heard Master Muten speak of you."

Jerry smiled and greeted Son Gohan.

Of course, he knew who this person was, but if Elder God hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have directly acknowledged him.

"Jerry, so you're the one who has been training with the Elder God. Thank you for saving Goku earlier."

Upon hearing Jerry's name, Son Gohan's eyes lit up with gratitude.

About half a year ago, he had accompanied Fortune-teller Baba to the mortal world to meet his grandson, Son Goku, and their teacher, Master Roshi. Goku had spoken of his experience at Karin Tower.

"Who is it, Gohan? Who's here?"

Just as Son Gohan and Jerry were chatting, a massive voice suddenly echoed from behind the Soulforge. Then, a female Giant at least a hundred meters tall appeared before them, holding a bowl.

"Grand Master Lao, I've come to visit you!"

Elder God waved at the female Giant, who lowered her head to look at him. Her body then rapidly shrank to the size of a normal human woman.

Indeed, in this world, Grand Master Lao was an undeniably beautiful goddess.

"Oh, isn't this Little God? What brings you here?"

"Grand Master Lao, I'm about to retire, so I've brought my chosen successor to meet you. I hope you will take good care of him in the future."

Elder God led Jerry to Grand Master Lao.

"Hello, Grand Master Lao!"

Jerry greeted her with a smile.

Grand Master Lao sized Jerry up, her face showing surprise:

"Not bad at all. You can hide your energy so well!"

If Jerry hadn't been standing there, she wouldn't have been able to sense his presence at all, indicating that he had perfectly mastered the control of his energy. This was no small feat for a human.

However, she was only slightly surprised and didn't think much of it.

Gods are not revered for their combat prowess; they are the managers of order and law. Even the most powerful beings, once dead, cannot escape the constraints of the Gods' laws.

"You Gods of Heaven sure do change leadership quickly. I remember the last transition was not that long ago."

"It has already been over three hundred years, Grand Master Lao."

Elder God wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Has it been that long? Alright, I got it. Lead him to the Underworld quickly. Gohan, how about we have rice balls for dinner tonight?"

Grand Master Lao waved her hand and turned to look at Son Gohan with a smile.

"Of course, Grand Master."

Son Gohan nodded with a look of admiration in his eyes.

"Something's not right!"

Elder God quickly noticed the affection between Grand Master Lao and Son Gohan. Not wanting to linger, he hurriedly led Jerry through the mist and officially entered the Underworld.

In half a day, Jerry had already met dozens of Gods in the Underworld, each responsible for various tasks, big and small.

Finally, he arrived again at the ancient mansion, where the endless queue of souls waiting for judgment and the Spirit Officers with their single horns and suits were still present.

"This is the last one, and the most honored one in the Underworld, Lord Enma. Every soul from the universe comes here to be judged by Lord Enma. Be respectful when you meet him."

Before entering the mansion, Elder God specifically instructed Jerry.

Jerry smiled and nodded.

Lord Enma's strength was not weak, but it wasn't necessarily stronger than his current level. However, within the Underworld, the power of his divine position would give Lord Enma an advantage. Even the mighty Golden Frieza was easily suppressed by Lord Enma when he arrived in the Underworld.

Jerry's full power was around twenty to thirty thousand, similar to the level of Vegeta when he first invaded Earth.

However, if Magic power was taken into account, the situation would be different. With the ability to use Magic, even in the Underworld, Lord Enma would not be able to suppress him. Both Lord Enma and Jerry could use the laws of the divine realm.

"Lord Enma, this is the candidate I have chosen to be the next God of Heaven. I've brought him to meet you in advance."

In the judgment hall, Elder God introduced Jerry to the towering figure of Lord Enma.

"You seem familiar."

Lord Enma looked at Jerry and then seemed to remember something.

"Oh, it's you. I didn't expect that after reincarnation, you would become a candidate for God of Heaven. It's quite fitting."

"Lord Enma, you know Jerry?"

Elder God looked puzzled.

"Oh, there was a problem with the Book of Life and Death, and your name came up, so I remembered you. You were quite impressive in your past life."

Lord Enma then recounted the fabricated past life that Jerry had created using the laws of the divine realm.

After hearing this, Elder God felt even more confident in his choice of successor.

As for Jerry, he simply smiled and didn't say much more.

It wasn't until Elder God finished the introductions and was about to teleport Jerry back to the Temple of Heaven that he spoke to Lord Enma above.

"Lord Enma, I've heard there's a Snake Way that leads to Lord Kaioshin. Could I try it? I want to train with Lord Kaioshin to become stronger and protect Earth from threats."

Earlier, when Elder God was introducing the Gods, Jerry had intentionally asked about Lord Kaioshin, so this request didn't seem too abrupt.
