Ailments and attacks of all kinds of Demonic Qi surged from the powerful Demon Cauldron, until the last lingering wisps of Divine Sense belonging to the Seven Saints of Jiangyan were thoroughly extinguished. Their souls were stripped of flesh and blood, entering the pathways of the cycle of life and death. Traversing the tunnel of time and space, they arrived first at the Bridge of Helplessness, passed through the Gates of Reincarnation, and finally reached the Hall of King Yama. As the souls of Jiangyan and his companions stood before the Hall of King Yama, even before they could speak, King Yama already understood the purpose of their coming.
King Yama looked at Jiangyan and the others, then slowly said: "Though you were already dead, you still have unfinished business. In consideration of your past merits, I grant you permission to return to the Immortal Cultivation Realm, retaining your memories of past lives. However, you must endure tribulations in the mortal world before you may re-enter the Immortal Cultivation Realm."
Overwhelmed with gratitude, Jiangyan and the others kowtowed in thanks to King Yama, after which they were led by the two Soul-Reaping Envoys toward the Pool of Reincarnation.
