Sure, here is the translation:
Ancient Yin River Dao, Xu Qing steps on the Cloud Ascension Shoes, wears the Lotus Crown, the Daluo Sect robe glows with brilliance on his body, and holds the dust-free Huang Brush in his hand, embodying majestic presence, showing the true spirit of the great sect!
Arriving at the Yin River, and meeting the female demon face-to-face, Xu Qing does not forget to open his sleeves and show off:
"Does the Celestial Maiden find my attire impressive?"
The female demon examines him for a moment, bluntly saying: "The Huang Brush is good, but as for this robe... it pales in comparison to my Neishang Immortal Garment."
"..."
Xu Qing is left speechless.
How could people like Zhang Pingsheng and Ascendant Fuluan from the lower realm have ever seen a true immortal garment?
Even if he dressed in heavenly attire, others would only think it was something ostentatious yet useless, unlike the impressive garb they cobbled together by exhausting their resources...
"This is currently the finest robe my Daluo Sect can offer!"
Xu Qing speaks honestly, not feeling ashamed in the slightest.
"And the Huang Brush, was made because my sect members feared I, the Sect Leader, would lose face and become timid before heavenly immortals, they sternly decided to pull out their own mane and tail hair to gather three thousand fine strands, only then creating this Huang Brush that rivals immortal treasures."
"..."
The female demon, while silent, cannot help but feel envious, saying: "The gift may be light, but the sentiment is heavy, your sect members are truly sincere to you."
"It's a pity that I'm banished to Chishui, unable to return to the upper realm and can't go to my former residence, otherwise I could have taken quite a few useful items for you, saving your disciples from worrying over trivial matters."
Presently, Ghost Gate sees no Yin Ghosts going in or out, while besides occasional flashes of treasure lights, no immortals descend from Heaven's Gate either. Xu Qing, having nothing to do, sets up tables and chairs, and brings out some seeds, fruits, and tea to chat leisurely with the Celestial Maiden.
The female demon isn't as at ease as Xu Qing; with Celestial Soldiers and Generals staring intently above her, and demonic ghosts spying in front of the Underworld's gates, it is impossible for her to engage in true chit-chat like Xu Qing.
"I remember the Celestial Maiden saying she used to reside in the upper realm's Xuanxiao Palace; I wonder where exactly is that Xuanxiao Palace?"
"You can't enter the celestial palace, why ask about it?"
Xu Qing fills the female demon's cup with tea, cheerfully saying: "To be honest, Celestial Maiden, I know several friends in the upper realm, like the Great Sea Sage and Xuantan True Monarch, both are my old acquaintances. Although I cannot go to the upper realm, those old friends of mine can move freely there."
The female demon suddenly realizes: "You intend to have your friends go to my palace to take treasures to the lower realm..."
"Look at how you phrase it! Taking our belongings can't be called stealing..."
The female demon ponders a moment, nodding: "There's reason in what you say. My Xuanxiao Palace has prohibitions; in these years I think no one dared to trespass. If we can bring my lifetime's treasures to the lower realm, it would be a good deed."
As she speaks, the female demon beckons towards the bronze coffin, and the next instant a cloud-engraved token flies out.
The token bears celestial scripts, evidently not a mundane item.
"This is the entry token for my Xuanxiao Palace; you can use it as you wish."
After handing the token to Xu Qing, the female demon also imparts the method to unlock the Xuanxiao Palace's grand array.
Xu Qing's mind melds into the token, the layout and images of the Celestial Maiden's palace appear vividly in his mind.
Flying eaves and concealed beams, colorful phoenix red doors, in front of the palace are celestial flowers not fading for millennia, auspicious grass ever-green for ten thousand years, with exquisite purple mansions and silken rosy stars...
How could Xu Qing have seen such immortal grandeur?
Even the Forbidden City where Zhu Huai'an once lived does not measure up to the magnificence of this celestial palace!
"Indeed, an abode of legends, a dwelling of immortals! But regrettably, lacking a Spirit Hall or coffin, the celestial garden bereft of tombs or grave mounds ultimately misses some intrigue."
"..."
The female demon glances at the youth who is shaking his head and sighing.
If she still were a Celestial Maiden years ago and heard such words, she would certainly punish Xu Qing well to make him realize the consequences of careless talk.
However, hearing Xu Qing's sigh now, she not only has no resistance, but even agrees with his viewpoint.
If only the celestial palace could have a few beds of coffins and add a couple of grounding tombs, everyday life would be far more comfortable than before...
Meanwhile, Xu Qing, having just obtained the key to the female demon's household, planning to chat about some down-to-earth family affairs, suddenly sees Ghost Gate outside Zhuoshui Dojo scatter adhesive black Yin Fiend, along with mist carrying bursts of Zen chants.
Xu Qing turns his gaze, witnessing within the boundless Yin Fiend, a brilliant Buddha light cleaving through the yin-yang, followed by a Bodhisattva wielding a nine-ring staff, draped in a fine robe stepping through the Ghost Gate, appearing within Zhuoshui Dojo.
Behind the dignified Bodhisattva, there is a strange beast with large wind-sail ears twitching incessantly to gather external news.
Seeing the newcomer, the female demon's expression turns harsh, reminding Xu Qing: "It's the Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva."
Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva? The one who vowed hell would not be empty, but ultimately broke due to King Yama sacrificing himself to seek the method for world salvation?
Although Xu Qing had never seen Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva before, he had heard from Lord Yuan and Demon Exorcism True Monarch about this Bodhisattva's history several times.
King Yama had once, ahead of Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva, crossed the daunting terror of death to carve a path to salvation for all, elevating the difficulty to the level of self-sacrifice for the greater good.
Which means, for Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva who wanted to achieve enlightenment by transforming every aggrieved soul in hell, his path had been shattered by King Yama.
To walk the path of transforming Yin Ghost grievances to become a Buddha, he must first cross the obstacle of self-sacrifice!
And the previous self-sacrificing King Yama, had died beyond death, his soul and essence returned to the world, never to be revived.
