a few days later.

The bridge of departure, the bridge of judgment.

The sky is blue, the sun is shining, the grass is green, and the waterfall brings up misty water vapor, which spreads over the long bridge built by tree roots across the waterfall canyon.

At one end of the long bridge, the guards of the House of Lords stood with their guns drawn, their eyes fixed straight ahead.

The detained scholars were released one by one.

He stood trembling at one end of the bridge, not daring to step over.

Seno, who had resumed his position as the Grand Disciplinary Officer, crossed his arms and exuded an aura that frightened the scholars.

Next to him, stood Tinari.

"Legend has it that when the Order Institute was first established, the God of Grass personally established six colleges to represent the six different aspects of wisdom. Countless schools of thought rose and fell between the different colleges, but only the six major schools relied on the six colleges and, after a long period of time, obtained permanent teaching positions in the Order Institute."

He looked at Azar, whose face and hands were covered with blood-red mushrooms. Not only were there mushrooms, but there was also scaly tissue on his skin. That was the demonic scale disease.

A common curse of bacterial cancer and necrosis.

As scholars who were about to be exiled to Daocheng Forest through the Bridge of Judgment, the others were crowded together, and a large piece of land near Azar was left alone.

Even if it is exile, each person's sentence and punishment are different.

"Nowadays, the six major schools and the six major colleges are almost synonymous, but six schools, six colleges, six sages... headed by the selected great sage of the Minglun School of the Rituofandi College, there are a total of four people who are at the mercy of desire and desire to create gods. For this purpose, they do not hesitate to imprison the only two remaining rational people."

Tinari shook his head.

"Little King of the Grass is kind and generous, and Lord Forest King is able to distinguish between good and evil."

"The forest king does not rule over primates, but relying on the rules of the forest, he can punish those who violate the way of the forest and step into the forest hunting grounds."

"The original ranger, the servant of the forest king...was not as gentle as it is now."

Seno said: "I think it's quite good. It measures the past sins and the good and evil of the soul. Those with less sins go to the Daocheng Forest, and those with more sins go to the opposite of the Daocheng Forest, the dreamland of the forest king - the cemetery."

The cemetery is a dream forest that depicts natural death. It is deep and strange, terrifying and dark, and it is the hell of life.

The Lidu Bridge, which had only appeared in legends, now truly possessed the power as described in the legend. It connected heaven and hell, and divided the world of life and the world of death.

"This can be considered the wisdom and enlightenment of the gods that they desire..."

"Inside the cemetery, in the microscopic world, nightmares repeat themselves, life and death are impermanent, and everything is cyclical..."

"All the sins of a lifetime will be revealed..."

"Sages lack reverence for life, dreams, and knowledge. So... spend the rest of your life practicing in the cemetery!"

Seno had been to the cemetery before. Apart from the lack of sunlight, the environment was pretty good. The bright moon shone dimly and the dense forest cast shadows.

There, you can see the Daocheng forest at night, the mushroom forest with blue fluorescent flashes, and discover many special fantasy plants.

You can experience... a repentant dream in which your body gradually rots, is decomposed by microorganisms, is eaten by beetles, and turns into bones.

In the cemetery, you will not die. If someone kills someone, then he will see the bodies of the people he directly or indirectly killed, hanging around, so that you can experience the pain of the victim's death.

If you have not killed anyone, but have the intention to kill and the act of killing, but are stopped by others, you may also see the body of the person you are about to kill.

Finally, the mildest form of suffering is seeing one’s own dead body.

As long as you purify yourself in the cemetery for all kinds of evil deeds and regain your reverence for life and knowledge, you can walk out of hell and return to the forest of Tao.

In Xumi, criminals also have the right to receive education.

However, the Forest King's education clearly exceeds ordinary people's understanding.

Seno's hands were naturally stained with blood, but he walked directly out of the cemetery.

The scholars hesitated before leaving the bridge, naturally knowing that the wooden bridge in front of them would lead them to different worlds depending on their sins.

Some people took a few steps and felt their steps were unsteady, as if they were falling directly off the wooden bridge into the cliff waterfall, which would be a good thing.

Unfortunately, the cliff waterfall is also a part of hell. If you jump down, you don’t need to go to the cemetery, but you will go directly to the cemetery.

The Forest King is merciful. He will not let any exile die, nor will he let any exile go mad.

When sanity breaks down, he grants a relaxing dream.

Azar straightened his clothes and said, "...Even if it is a cemetery, it is still the wisdom of the gods and the embodiment of miracles..."

"I...will go ahead!"

His face, which looked many years older, was trembling. He stepped forward and gradually passed everyone.

"Little Lucky Grass King and I will save the World Tree. When you find that the magic scale disease on your body has disappeared, it proves that we have succeeded. Not only have we saved the World Tree, but also..."

He did not hear clearly the last words the Forest King said to him.

But he vaguely knew...it was an unspeakable feat.

"I am ashamed of the shallowness of my thoughts. I am willing to listen to the guidance of wisdom... and practice in the forest all my life..." He walked halfway across the bridge, but in the end he did not dare to say what kind of forest this was.

Because the scenery around is changing.

The bridge in front of me became narrower, leading directly into the deep and dense forest illuminated by the bright moon.

The sin of greed, the sin of deception... are the first sins to emerge from the great sage.

The sin of greed, the karma of the mind, the disregard for human life, and the greed that continued to extract the dream after the energy of the divine heart had been channeled out, caused the great sage to fall into a nightmare;

The sin of deception, the karma of speech, concealing the truth about the loss of the dream of the Sumeru people, and the many lies that maintained the authority of the Order, caused the tongue of the great sage to begin to rot;

As karma gradually built up, the great sage fell into a charnel ground, where his sins entangled him like thorns, unable to escape or repent.

A high position and great power brings with it deep karma.

Only by awakening to Bodhi can one break free.

The scholars at the back looked at the great sage disappearing on the bridge, their faces suddenly turned pale. There was no doubt that the great sage had already entered the cemetery, so how many others would enter with him?

Their eyes couldn't help but turn to the three sinning sages.

The sages of the Sudhana school of the Sipatama Academy, the sages of the Zhilun school of the Sravasti Academy, the sages of the Miaolun school of the Sahaprabha Academy... These once great figures were now in a more embarrassed state than the other, and had a deeper fear of the charnel ground than ordinary scholars.

They remembered the reminder given by the Fatui.

You admire the human God, but don't forget that he believes in rewards and punishments for good and evil.

"The scholars' performance is too ugly..." Senor stepped forward, revealing his red eyes under his hood, and issued an ultimatum to the scholars, "The Disciplinary Officer has a lot of work to do. I'm very busy. It's a waste of my time to take time out to watch you walk the Bridge of Judgment."

"Even if I wait here for a day, the ending will not change."

"After ten seconds, anyone who doesn't want to leave will be thrown off the bridge."

The threats were effective.

If he walked on his own, he still had a chance of survival, but if Seno threw him off the bridge, he would be sent to hell forever.

The scholars quickly made their decision and rushed forward, praying that they were heading to Daochenglin.

"Oh!" Tinari raised his head, "I am going to go too. These scholars who were exiled to Daochenglin still need our forest rangers to take care of them."

"Those from the cemetery, let our disciplinary officers take care of them." Seno nodded. What he actually thought in his heart was that the disciplinary officers should go to the cemetery once. If walking through the cemetery could be used as a selection criterion for disciplinary officers, there would definitely not be so many disciplinary officers and the great sages in cahoots with each other.

But he knew that once he opened his mouth... he would definitely encounter opposition from all sides.

This kind of punishment is already very advanced for Xumi. If there is another advanced selection, perhaps no one will dare to be a disciplinary officer.

The guards of the House of Lords breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that all the scholars had arrived at their places of exile.

This bridge is one of the only ways to reach Xumi City. I hope it will not scare people who are doing business or traveling.

Although normally this bridge would not be used to judge, the thought of the hell that the bridge connected to was enough to make everyone afraid.

……

Order House.

El Haisen is busy.

After Azar's fall, imprisoned opponents were also released.

The two with the highest status were Tinari’s teacher, a sage of the Yogacara school of Amirita College, and the other was a sage of the Pragmatism school of Varumunāra College.

Both men were a little weak, but they were not injured or abused.

After coming out, he directly took charge of the two colleges again.

The other four colleges are currently selecting new sages according to the rules and regulations.

In addition, Elhaisen was one of the nominees and was nominated to succeed the Great Sage, but he refused. He did not want to be the leader, or even the Six Sages. He was only responsible for handling major affairs of the academy before the new sage took office.

After all, several sages have been dismissed, and the current Decree House is in chaos.

Outside the city, the light of the Myo-ron school, the blonde Kavi, looked at the high and mighty House of the Order on the sacred tree of the Xumi City, listening to the discussions around him with a bewildered look on his face.

"what?"

"Was the thunderstorm that day a fight between gods?"

"Forest King, Little Auspicious Grass King... take control of Mount Sumeru again?"

He closed his eyes and thought, and new decrees and judgments on the Great Sage and his group appeared in the void terminal beside his ears.

Oh! The wise men of their Myo-theory sect were also judged.

Looking at the charges one by one.

Kavi thought the world was truly magical. Just because I went on a long journey, the Church of the Holy Fathers was completely changed?

As for the conduct of the wise, it is really impossible to evaluate it.

But... the Miaolun Sect's funding will not be affected by this incident and will continue to be cut, right?

He thought to himself that this was not good, and hurried to the Church of the Holy Fathers. Suddenly, he remembered something and hurried to the Grand Bazaar...

He was so shocked by the news that he almost forgot that he came back to see... the kitten in Nilu's hands.

I hope nothing happened to the cat...
