   Reader note

   The first book is an incredibly exciting adventure novel with a wildly imaginative plot; it's already completed. The second book is a time-travel story with a system, about becoming a god and rebuilding the underworld; it's highly recommended and already completed. The fourth book isn't about building the underworld, but rather how the underworld already exists. The protagonist is a White Impermanence (a lowly official in the underworld), who livestreams his daily life in the netherworld for rewards. It covers ghostly daily life, ghost festival activities, whether ghosts read novels, what they sell on Ghost Street, and whether they have couplets for festivals. It's very interesting and funny! There's also a collaborative comic book; if you don't want to read the text, you can check out the comic book—it's the last one.

   The first book features a protagonist building the underworld; there's no female lead, but there are some ambiguous romantic elements. It's not a typical "saintly" story, and the protagonist is incredibly strong. The second book is about the struggle between the underworld and the heavenly court; there's no female lead, and it's not a typical "saintly" story—it's quite good.

   A life of dramatic twists and turns for the Emperor of Fengdu + the loyal and humorous Black and White Impermanence! I recommend a fantasy novel—*The Legend of Fengdu* (also known as: Rebirth of the Supreme Underworld Emperor). Whether you like it or not is up to you! Try it out! — Under the sharp gaze of the Great God Pangu, Zhang Xuanyi was somewhat overwhelmed, so he quickly turned to Black Impermanence. "Brother Chang, where are the gifts we brought for the old man? Hurry up and take them out!" "Alright! Boss!" Black Impermanence looked around and walked to an open space. Then, with a wave of his hand, countless things floated out of his storage ring... Soon, a mountain of things appeared before everyone. "Senior, our boss knows you like donkey meat sandwiches. These are donkey meat sandwiches and delicious braised donkey meat specially bought for you!" After Black Impermanence finished speaking, jars of fine wine floated out of his storage ring, soon piling up into another small mountain. "Senior, our boss knows you enjoy a drink, so these are top-quality wines specially prepared for you!" Pangu's eyes widened in amazement! Sword Spirit Huangquan exclaimed in surprise, "Good heavens! Boss, how much stuff did you buy?!" But it didn't end there. One after another, lively wild rabbits floated out of the storage ring, and soon the area around them was filled with hopping rabbits—at least eight thousand, if not ten thousand! Black Impermanence said smugly, "Senior, our boss knows you like roasted wild rabbit, so he specially bought a batch of fresh rabbits for you. They can roam freely in this Void Realm, and you can catch them and roast them whenever you want!" Looking at the vast herd of rabbits around them, even the Great God Pangu was stunned! Sword Spirit Huangquan shouted even louder! "Boss! This... This is going too far!... Chang Da, is there any more?" Black Impermanence thought for a moment, "That's right! There are still ten big black donkeys! Senior can slaughter them whenever he wants to eat fresh donkey meat." With that, Black Impermanence waved his hand again, and the ten big black donkeys reappeared in front of everyone. Seemingly a little uncomfortable in an unfamiliar environment, the ten big black donkeys raised their heads and brayed, "Ugh—ah! Ugh—ah!..." At this moment, Pangu and the sword spirit Huang Quan were completely petrified... After a long time, Pangu finally came to his senses, and looked at Zhang Xuanyi and Black and White Impermanence with a puzzled expression. "What are you three up to? Are you planning to stay here permanently?"
