"If I read it correctly, your body has been irreparably damaged. You may not be able to survive much longer relying on the power of the human world. If you become a god, you can still rely on the power of the Kingdom of God to survive."
Hearing that his biggest secret was pointed out, a cold light suddenly flashed in the old man's eyes. He stared at Milo, but could not see the slightest flow of Qi. Horror replaced the cold light, and then was quickly covered by peace. He bowed Said: "I didn't expect that there is such a revered god as you in the world. It is really rude not to go out to greet him. As for why there is no deity, can the gods today really be called gods?"
"Come here uninvited, just don't think I'm a bad visitor. As for the gods today, they really can't be called complete gods."
When Milo said this, his eyes did not fall on the old man at all, but instead played with the cup in his hand.
"Wish, fear, belief, protection, prayer... Let the belief in gods and the fear of monsters, relying on the essence of protecting one party, converge on this symbol of the contract signed by hundreds of ghosts. This object can be said to be a tripartite contract between gods, humans and ghosts. , represents the concept of monsters protecting the night, no wonder it becomes a part of [禊], did you create this treasure unintentionally, or did you concentrate on it?"
The old man was not surprised by Milo's attitude. As an old monster who had lived for nearly a thousand years, the old man himself had seen too many things.
According to the time node corresponding to the giant tree, this old man can be said to have lived from the trunk position occupied by Milo to the era corresponding to the roots of the tree. It can be said that the new gods of modern times were born and grew under his watch.
The old man is very aware of the limitations of today's gods, and is naturally unwilling to turn to the incomplete Shinto for the so-called immortality.
Similarly, the old man also knew how terrifying it was to be able to clearly see the essence of Bei Zhan in such a short period of time, and he also knew more clearly how terrible the consequences would be if he deceived him in front of such existence.
The old man lowered his head and said respectfully: "It was not created accidentally, but with the help of an Onmyoji."
"Hasn't that Onmyoji ever thought of intervening? Although the concept of this cup needs to be exchanged for sincerity and the fate is condensed on it, only then can the wish, fear, belief, protection, and prayer be mixed together to make it a [禊], but he should be able to influence the existence of [禊] by forming a bond with you, and finally use [禊] as a springboard to become a god. But I don’t seem to see the slightest trace of Shinto on [禊] ?”
Milo raised his head, looked at the old man, and listened to his explanation: "In that case, this [禊] will probably become part of Shinto."
When he said this, a faint divine light appeared on Milo's fingertips, wrapping around the cup like a vine, controlling the concept of [犊] and adding a layer of protective measures.
The old man lowered his head, and his breath became a little illusory. Milo chuckled: "Flowers in the mirror, moon in the water? He is indeed a slippery ghost. Even when communicating with high-ranking beings, he never forgets to look for opportunities. But for me, Your aura is too obvious."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and flicked it, and ripples appeared in the surrounding void. The old man in front of Milo turned into smoke and disappeared. His true body appeared on Milo's left side. The blade had been unsheathed, trying to cut off Milo holding the cup. hand.
"You don't have to worry. I have no intention of incorporating [禊] into Shinto. I just want to make it a little more stable. After all, this state of separation is the best choice for stabilizing the current situation." Milo walked forward. After taking two steps, he returned the extra cup to the old man. At the same time, he lightly tapped his back with his fingers. A little spiritual light appeared, and wisps of black air steamed out.
The moment the old man took the cup, he knew that its properties were more stable and not mixed with other things. The aura that appeared behind him immediately made him feel that a heavy burden had been lifted from his body, and the heart and lungs that had been taken away from him in the chest had also been repaired.
"Um?"
Milo frowned slightly. He found that he seemed to have underestimated the old man's problem. The other party's injury was not simply a seizure of organs, but another conceptual injury. He whispered: "Your injury is caused by [curse] Influence?"
"As expected of the ancient gods, he saw my problem at a glance. My injury came from the shadow of the hell girl who was the incarnation of [curse]. So, you don't have to waste your efforts, I can get a moment of relaxation, Already, wait...how is that possible..."
The old man was trying to persuade Milo not to waste his divine power, but as the aura flourished, the old man felt that the incomplete heart and lungs in his body were beginning to regenerate, and at the same time, the power lost due to the disappearance of the heart and lungs was gradually returning.
The old man's body began to grow rapidly, and he transformed from a short appearance into a handsome young man. Under his eyes, a unique pattern similar to a divine pattern appeared, and the back of his head, which was like a melon pulp, was also covered with long golden, white and black hair. cover.
Huge demonic power rose from the young man's body, bringing with it whirlwinds that swept everywhere. The demons in the building were inspired to release their own demonic power, turning into a dark cloud covering the surroundings. A night ritual of hundreds of ghosts covering the entire city was completed in an instant. .
The powerful power attracted the attention of the surrounding practitioners and gods.
"general!"
"Commander in Chief!"
"The Shodaime!"
"grandfather!"
Voices sounded from inside the building one by one, and hundreds of ghosts emerged one by one. Under the leadership of a sly ghost who looked quite similar to a young and old man, they stood in mid-air. Standing on the building, their auras were solid, His eyes are sharp and he can attack at any time.
When they saw the old man's new appearance, they all showed expressions of surprise and joy, and all the ghosts fell down one after another and started dancing.
"Haha, although I don't really want to interrupt your high spirits, should Slippery Ghost tell me what happened to the shadow suit that Hell Girl left behind?" Milo's voice once again attracted the eyes of Hyakki, and there was an obvious look in his eyes. of vigilance.
But before anyone could take action, the older slick ghost scolded all the ghosts around him: "You must not lose etiquette in front of distinguished guests."
Then, he said respectfully to Milo: "Thank you for your help."
In response to the Slippery Ghost's gratitude, Milo maintained the posture of an ancient god in the eyes of outsiders. After looking back, he said, "This is your reward for [禊] and [Fear]. Now I just want to know what happened to the shadow robe that the hell girl left behind." thing?"
The Slippery Ghost looked around and asked the Hundred Ghosts to retreat.
"general!"
"Commander in Chief!"
"The Shodaime!"
Naturally, Baigui was unwilling. Milo raised his hand and said, "You don't need to hide anything in front of me. Even if there is a problem, I can suppress it. By the way, is this half-demon next to you your heir?"
As he spoke, Milo's eyes fell on the young slippery ghost.
"Yes, this is my grandson Lu Sheng."
"Lu Sheng? Come forward."
Milo raised his hand, and the slippery ghost named Rikuo took two steps forward involuntarily. Baigui was furious and wanted to take action, but was stopped by their general.
"He is a human-male hybrid, but he is able to uphold good intentions and is a good boy. I helped your grandfather recover from his injuries, but I also damaged your character and lost most of the [fear] character that was originally condensed. What compensation do you want? "
Lu Sheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He was about to say that Milo saved his grandfather and he should be grateful. However, the old man next to him who thought he knew the images of some ancient gods actually knew that these gods often said they were asking, but in fact they were just notifications. Going against their ideas can easily lead to punishment. Before Sun Tzu spoke, he was the first to arrive: "Sheng Lu, why don't you thank the god?"
Although Lu Sheng didn't know why his grandfather spoke, he was vaguely aware of the problem. He was silent for a moment and said: "I don't lack anything. If I have to compensate, I hope everyone can be safe."
"What a simple yet troublesome wish."
Milo chuckled lightly, looked at Lu Sheng and said: "For ordinary people, the easiest way to realize this wish is to seek asylum, but you probably don't want to be protected by them. Anyway, I will give you a little Please help."
As he spoke, Milo tapped Lu Sheng's eyebrows with his fingers, and his spiritual energy gathered between Milo's.
The information corresponding to the main personality of the demons and demons gathered in Fuso and other places in the past emerged in the spiritual world, turned into blessings and blessings on Lu Sheng, and gave him a status close to that of a god.
The hundred ghosts who were a little restless because of the old man's obstruction all showed horrified expressions. They felt that their power was flowing uncontrollably towards Lu Sheng.
"It's really an amazing method."
The old man's eyes widened slightly as he also noticed the changes, and then he thanked Milo and told everything he knew.
"As far as I know, Hell Girl is one of the few hell ghosts and gods who are still alive. She travels back and forth between the human world and hell. By collecting people's resentment, she makes the souls fall into hell and appease the increasingly angry Izanami. But. The resentment of the angry Great Mother God day after day also made Hell Girl miserable. She had to bury her resentment in the shadow again and again, and then cut off the shadow. Through this method of self-torture, she could relieve the Great Mother's hatred. God’s wrath and resentment.”
Hearing his grandfather's words, Lu Sheng's eyes widened. In his understanding, shadows can also be regarded as the residence of souls and a way for people to express their spirituality. Ghosts and gods do not have shadows. Shadow, cut off the shadow, the pain must be high, and according to my grandfather's wishes, the other party has done this more than once.
"Because of cutting off her own shadow time and time again, Hell Girl's power has also weakened, and part of the concept of [curse] has also flowed into the human world, transforming into various strange and weird existences. I wonder if they can be called monsters. Those severed shadows were somehow acquired by a demon fox that died tragically. She swallowed the shadows and turned them into her own tail. She gained the ability to reincarnate and thought she was Abe Qingming's mother, trying to rebirth Abe Qingming. .”
"Wait a minute, Grandpa, so Hagoromo Fox is not Abe Qingming's mother, and the one she wants to give birth to is not Abe Qingming?"
Rikuo hurriedly interrupted his grandfather's words. He didn't expect that the Hagoromo Kitsune he was about to face was not Abe Seimei's mother. Unexpectedly, the slippery ghost looked at Miroku first, and when he saw no reaction, he shook his head at his grandson. Said: "It is true that the Hagoromo Fox is not Abe Qingming's mother, but is it possible that the monster she wants to give birth to is really Abe Qingming?"
As he spoke, Slippery Ghost pointed at his chest and said: "Back then, when I blocked that monster from coming into the world, he didn't even say a word, but he just read my name and made me unable to move, and then I was beaten by Yuyi. The fox's tail took away the internal organs, and it is getting old day by day. And my body cannot recover, because the tail of the fox in haloromo is the shadow of the hell girl, which is derived from the power of the [curse]."
The slippery ghost raised the cup in his hand again and said, "If I hadn't relied on the wine in the cup these years, I would have been corroded to death."
"Hell Girl, is Abe Seimei?"
Milo narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Lu Sheng again, and said: "It seems that I am destroying your [fear] character, and also interfering with your destiny."
"What's the meaning?"
Lu Sheng frowned, but the old man next to him vaguely guessed the reason and said with a smile: "If Zunshen wants to take action against Yuyihu, just do it. The relationship between our family and Yuyihu can be regarded as a fight to the death. If Zunshen can do it, Instead, we want to thank you for sending him to hell."
Riku Sheng, who understood what the old man meant, also nodded in agreement, and even said that if Milo killed the Hagoromo Fox, his friends would definitely worship Milo. Such words made Milo couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Enshrine, that kind of thing I don’t need it. I have already got what I need, so I won’t stay for long. I hope that when we meet again next time, you have successfully condensed the personality of the Lord of Demons and Demons.”
After saying that, Milo looked at the sky, felt it carefully, and whispered: "There is no Era Tree around the location? No, it should have been uprooted consciously."
Based on the connection, Miroku sensed the location of the Hagoromo Fox. After failing to detect a suitable location for establishment, he tried to interfere with the roots from the trunk to build a new foothold, but it also had no effect.
This is obviously someone who consciously blocked his arrival, so that the causes and conditions could not change to create suitable opportunities.
This point also allowed Milo to see more of the laws and regulations governing the operation of heaven and earth.
"Forget it, since we can't come directly, let's take a detour!"
As he finished speaking, a spiritual light appeared under Milo's feet, holding his body up into the air and flying towards the city where the Hagoromo Fox was.
The moment it took off, there was also a ray of divine light that ordinary people could not see rising up. From a distance, it looked like a big sun rising from the horizon, with thousands of rays of sunlight coating the sky with a bright and warm layer. It is golden red, and at the same time, this light reflects with the bright moon hanging high in the sky. In the eyes of hundreds of ghosts and practitioners, it forms a wonderful scene of the sun and moon in the sky.
At the same time, wherever its light passes, all [miasmas] are suppressed, negative forces begin to dissipate, and concepts such as [wishes], [blessings], [straightness], etc. are promoted.
Demons that were partially contaminated with [Miasma], or were born based on [Miasma], turned into ashes under the light, while Lu Sheng was illuminated by the light and returned to the appearance of an ordinary person. He looked at his body, Feeling the demon power still rolling in his body and the purer aura, he couldn't help but look at his grandfather beside him and the hundred ghosts whose aura became purer, and said in surprise: "Grandpa, who is this one?"
The old man did not answer immediately. He picked up the cigarette and took a puff, slowly blew out the smoke ring, shrugged and said: "I thought I guessed his identity, but now I don't know. But compared to who he is, , I think we should have a banquet now! Celebrate the happy events we encountered today."
Hearing this, the hundreds of ghosts nearby cheered and supported the grandfather and grandson as they walked into the building.
You should have noticed that these chapters have been combined with a lot of anime. Of course, they are all modified products to fit the current plot. I hope you like it.
