'As an echo of the dead souls, doesn't the core essence of the ghost army actually lie in themselves, but in the evil of gods? '
Milo looked at the many warriors, guardians and magic weapons who had become whole again, and in subsequent attempts to kill the "resurrected" ghost army again and again, he came to a second theory.
'Although they are essentially divine beings, the ghost army also contains part of the souls of the past, or memories? '
Milo explored the composition of these ghost armies, and unexpectedly visited a field. Invisibly, he understood the core composition of these ghost armies, which also gave him a clearer understanding of subsequent salvation. Target, he began to pull out the ghost army again and again, weakening the memory possessed by the ghost army again and again, and the echoes of the dead souls around him gradually solidified.
Moreover, as Milo gave names again and again, the general spirituality of the Hanxia period also gathered in these dead souls.
But when the echo of the first dead soul disappeared on the Juge Plain, the realm also opened its door to Milo, allowing him to enter it and observe the mystery for once.
Seeing the increasingly mysterious aura on Milo's body, Bai Lu couldn't help but sigh: "Your power has become more and more unpredictable, but you still don't seem to have any plans to become a legend. Why is this? Logically speaking, your power He has surpassed most legends and should have embarked on the path of legend long ago.”
"I am actually exploring my own legendary path now."
Milo looked back at the white deer, his pupils turned into a green color like emerald, and the sky, ocean, nature and other phenomena appeared on Milo's body.
At the same time, Milo's skin also showed some characteristics of white jade, full of mysterious charm.
It can be said that the charm of Milo in this state is fully displayed, and even the naturally bred essence of Bailu is inevitably affected, and there is a moment of sluggishness. Of course, the divinity accumulated by Bailu over the years allows him to quickly recover from it. In the confusion, he broke free and pretended to be fine, carefully sensing Milo's power.
"The way taught by heaven? King Jade? It's strange. Since your legendary way has been recognized by the emperor, why is it still stuck halfway? Could it be that this path is not perfect yet, or is there a possibility of going further?"
The more Bai Lu senses it, the more surprised he becomes. In Bai Lu's perception, Milo's path is a path called the Emerald King, and it is still a path recognized and favored by the Dragon Earth Emperor. Logically speaking, The moment Emperor Tian paid attention and favor, this path was recognized by Tianyu and became a feasible path. As the original pioneer, Milo should complete the path as soon as possible and take up this legendary profession.
However, in Bai Lu's perception, Milo's legendary position is still in a special stage of being completed. This completely unreasonable state has made this demigod who has survived for many years also fall into confusion.
Milo's expression became a little strange when he heard the title of Jade King. Just as he had always found the three titles of White Deer Chongzhen Great Sage, Canglang Searching Great Sage, and Eagle Patrolling Sky Great Sage to be very strange, he also felt that The legendary way that he had condensed himself, and the legendary profession that was given the title of Emerald King by Emperor Tian, also felt very strange.
Not only that, when Milo was named for this profession, he also felt that the two pan-conscious gods, Huangtian and Houtu, were analyzing the powerful men, goddesses and magical guardian soldiers he had summoned.
This kind of analysis has a certain connection with Milo. Different names are manifested on the treasure scroll. Some of them have not yet been completely condensed and formed. The formed ones are,, and.
Milo also summoned these names to observe their abilities.
The images among them are translucent images of young women, most of whom are beautiful in appearance. They wear light green, cyan and moon white robes, and exquisite jade and jade jewelry. They have some of the gods of Houtu on their bodies, and have a very rich earth feeling. Affinity can weave gold, silver, copper, jade and other items into rock veins, and can also very slowly transform earth elements into gold, silver, copper, jade and other items.
According to Milo's exploration, the power of the world does not come from the goddess of heaven, but actually comes from the transformation ability shown in the development process of Milo. After the gaze of Houtu's divine power, a new individual is formed.
The images are mostly of young women with solemn looks, wearing white, gray and red robes. Most of them have loose long hair, and a few wear simple decorations. They are surrounded by a piece of soft tulle, which has the powerful ability to dispel filth, disease and The ability to heal injuries.
This one is a new individual that conforms to the ability construction of many goddesses.
The most special thing is that the appearance of this name originated from Milo's attempt to use the method of water and fire to redeem the echoes of the dead souls. At that time, Milo blessed the names of some dead souls and echoes, activating the power of the sun and moon.
This move attracted great attention from Emperor Tian, and promoted the transformation of the two names.
Most of their images are beautiful women wearing silver-white robes with gold patterns. The surface of their bodies is covered with a faint light of the sun and the moon, possessing a weak temporal power.
As for the last one, it is the embodiment of the power of the ghost army, but I don’t know if it is because of the echo of these dead souls. This is Fang Tianyu’s system. This series of names is the most powerful and complete. They have the power to boost morale. , manifesting the ability to participate in battles and take away the dead souls, as well as the characteristics of protecting ordinary dead souls.
According to Milo's understanding, this is similar to the original name in the treasure scroll, and a collection of "."
But compared to the , and in the treasure scroll, it is very suitable for Fang Tianyu. It can be used as a perfect part-time job to bless all suitable dead souls.
Nowadays, most of the echoes of the dead souls around Milo have been blessed. They regularly clean up the monsters affected by the evil spirits around them. Occasionally, they will go to other places to attract the ghost army formed by the echoes of the dead souls to expand their own power.
The increase in these powers undoubtedly greatly stimulated Milo's own power.
But Milo is not willing to completely inherit these abilities, so he in Miaoyoutian has been using the Qi of the Three Pure Ones to circulate the principles of Tao, promote, and constantly change, and try his best to make these names adapt to himself, not Baojuan. The names among them were forced to adapt to Fang Tianyu's concept.
It is precisely because Milo's principles have never been consistent with the revised principles of Huang Tianhou Tu that he has been unable to achieve the status of a legend.
To put it bluntly, the legendary personality itself can be regarded as a simplified, degraded, castrated, and then downgraded version of the true god's personality.
Perhaps, simply observing the two personalities of legend and true god together, there is almost no similarity between the two. We can compare the person corresponding to the legendary realm, the deity of the gods of many mountains and rivers in the land of dragons, and the true god. When the persons are placed together, the connection between the three can be seen.
Of course, it is also possible that when Sage Shoulong created the pantheistic system, it was the result of secondary creation based on the legendary persona and the true god persona.
But in terms of results, the legendary personality does have some subtle characteristics of the godhead, such as the connection between the corresponding Tao principles and domain concepts. Because of this, Milo naturally cannot take up the legendary profession without being able to perfectly fit into the existing laws and principles.
In this situation, Milo made it clear to Bailu that he could only change the subject and said: "Perhaps Emperor Tianhou Tu has higher expectations for me and plans to wait for me to completely restore the Juge Plain and give me more at once. strength."
"Then you have to wait, but having said that, your recent achievements are already quite impressive. Creating such a pure land in this desert is something that the three demigods and I have not been able to accomplish for more than two hundred years. matter."
"There is no comparison between the two."
Milo shook his head to refute Bailu's words. He looked at the valley where many grasses and trees grew, and said softly: "What I did was just pay attention to the natural environment of the valley in front of me, and what I restored was only this small piece of land, and the three of them What the Great Sage is concerned about is restoring the entire Juge Province. If the whole cannot be repaired, what I have is nothing more than a rootless tree that will scatter in the wind."
"That's better than me waiting for more than two hundred years to repair a single place and not being able to do so."
Bai Lu shook his head and looked at the vegetation in front of him, his eyes full of joy. After a moment, Bai Lu looked at Milo again and said, "I plan to let some people migrate to this place. What do you think?"
"Migrate to me?"
Milo repeated, frowning slightly and said: "But this is a place where divine evil is rampant. Although there are plants and vegetation, everything is just a mirror. It can be broken with a poke. Is it too dangerous for living beings to live here?"
"We also know that this move is dangerous, but Juge Province can no longer support the lives of so many people. This was originally one of the three major granaries in our Shoulong Land, but now there are too few places to grow food. Many people We have been attacking and plundering each other for survival. Even if I keep adjusting, we are gradually unable to balance these changes. But if we use you as a transit, we can try to go to the Golden Oasis to trade with the Blue Bird and exchange more from her. of food.”
"Golden oasis? You mean the golden oasis ruled by the goddess Alehir, but I remember that the relationship between that goddess and us does not seem to be very good." Milo actually said this more euphemistically.
Whether it is the blue bird in Bailu's mouth or the Alehir in Milo's mouth, they refer to the mistress of the golden oasis outside the Juge Province and beyond the border of the Land of Shoulong.
This goddess was originally a demigod from the Dragon Land. Because she was born with a certain amount of authority, there was a time when her reputation was comparable to that of the ape god of the East China Sea.
Its prototype is said to be a special kind of sheep spirit. Because it loves vanity, it hopes to become a true god more than once, and finally chooses to leave the land of Shoulong and establish a golden oasis outside the country.
The geographical location of this golden oasis is very special.
In the early years of Fang Tianyu, the continent was separated. At that time, the land where the Dragon Shou was located was almost completely separated from the land where the Western Gods were, except for a small amount of land in the north that was connected.
The overall look is somewhat similar to the relationship between Hanxia, the Western Continent and the Northern Continent, except that the Northern Continent in Fang Tianyu is smaller, and the distance between the Land of Shoulong and the Western Continent is slightly closer.
Moreover, the few connecting points between the two continents are either covered in ice and snow or in the Gobi Desert, leaving almost no place to stay.
This is also what led to the establishment of the Golden Oasis by Alehir. He quickly gained the trust of businessmen and became a regional god, in charge of the three responsibilities of Golden Oasis, Wind Sand and Illusion. There are also rumors that this This goddess also holds the power of wealth and is one of the few interfaces between Shoulong Land and the outside world. Many businessmen who try to approach Shoulong Land from land will stop at this oasis.
As for Alehir's bad relationship with the Land of Shoulong, in addition to the reason why she left the Land of Shoulong in her early years, there is also her attitude of sitting on the sidelines during the war between the gods.
Her self-perceived neutral attitude was regarded as betrayal by many people in the Land of Shoulong. Therefore, her belief was widely rejected by the Land of Shoulong. Now, except for parts of Juge Province, the entire Land of Shoulong There is almost no trace of belief in this goddess.
Similarly, this goddess's attitude towards the merchants of Shoulong Land is becoming more and more ambiguous. Sometimes she helps, and sometimes she keeps teasing them, just like the unpredictable wind and sand in the desert.
"You don't have to worry about this. Jade Bird has been trying to explore the identity of the God of Wealth over the years. This aspect cannot be provided by the Western gods. Therefore, Jade Bird now needs to allow large-scale transactions and the circulation of wealth to occur in the Golden Oasis for a long time."
"That golden lady, the goddess of wealth, will you agree?"
Milo maintained a skeptical attitude. Although the Western Goddess of Wealth is only a weak deity with divine power level seven, she is in charge of the three fields of commerce, trade and wealth. She has an extremely large number of believers and countless thugs, many of whom are powerful. The church of divine power will not go out of its way to antagonize it.
"What does that lady's consent have to do with us? That is something that the Blue Bird needs to pay attention to. We only need to exchange enough food from the Blue Bird's hands to ensure that everyone can survive. As for other things, we have no ability. , and didn’t bother to pay attention to it. As far as I know, Qingniao has expanded the oasis a lot over the years, and relying on her talent, she has accumulated a lot of food. If she can exchange it all back, it will be enough to feed the entire world. Jugo Province.”
Bai Lu's answer made Milo silent for a while. Finally, he agreed to the demigod's proposal. After all, at this moment, he also needed more people to help perfect his own path, especially regarding the Milo Treasure Scroll and the Tao of the Universe. The connection between legal principles.
With Milo's consent, Bailu immediately began to organize the relocation of people in Juge Province.
Most of these relocated people are tribes and villages that cannot survive. They are unable to survive in the harsh environment. According to past history, they will become a few simple transactions in nearby cities in the battles for resources. The traces left behind by records will disappear in the wind and sand in the next hundred years.
If other tribes and villages migrate to the area where they live, the traces they left will disappear faster.
But now, these people who can no longer survive, under the guidance of Bai Lu, begin to approach Milo's direction.
As the master of the valley, Milo first accelerated the expansion before these immigrants arrived, and then sent many undead armies with blessed names to protect the civilians.
What’s interesting is that when these civilians began to move, the powerful villages and tribes that had squeezed their living space and resources began to provide shelter. They either helped clean up some monsters or gave them a small amount of food. It seemed that the past battles were gone. It’s like it no longer exists.
But it was precisely because of the actions of these villages and tribes that the army of dead souls sent by Milo was discovered, and some not-so-good stories were spread.
"Uncle, if they say this about you, don't you refute it?"
Qingyuan, who occasionally went out, couldn't help but come back to complain to Milo after hearing rumors that the ghost army in Juge Plain was out to devour civilians.
Milo had also heard about these rumors, and he even heard more exaggerated news. Among them was the theory that the White Deer Demigod had fallen and joined forces with the ghost army to devour civilians to maintain himself.
Milo smiled, patted Qingyuan on the head and said: "White Deer Great Sage has been slandered for many years and has not said anything. What should I be angry about? When these immigrants stabilize, business contacts will gradually appear. , after the outside world communicates with us, such rumors will be self-defeating. When the time comes, the reversal of the statement will also provide us with a lot of reputation."
Milo's remarks were confirmed in the following period. With the arrival of immigrants and the establishment of towns, especially the merchants from the golden oasis, they began to enter this area through here. The valley maintained by Milo became the center of Juge Province. A great legend.
A fairyland hidden in the Juge Plain.
The name of Milo, the founder, also spread throughout Juge Province, and he received many strange names.
Some people think that Milo is the awakened spirit of a certain person, some people think that Milo is the incarnation of Alehir, and some people think that Milo is the incarnation of White Deer. The identity of the Lord was exposed, and they called Milo the Redeemer of the Blazing Mountains.
And these rumors eventually converged on Milo.
For many people, legend is a manifestation of popularity and prestige. Its biggest role is to affect one's ability to negotiate, deceive and intimidate. Theoretically speaking, any level of legend can be regarded as A skill level corresponding to communicative ability, and the effect can be stacked with someone's communicative ability.
But for high-level legends or demigods, the role of legend is one of the necessary conditions for trying to become a god in the future.
Simply put, legend is the degree to which a person's reputation spreads throughout the country. It is the degree to which the world knows an individual or what an individual has done, whether it is fear, admiration, or even love, as long as they Just know the individual and express certain emotions about the individual or his behavior.
The best situation is that some people start to follow the footsteps of individuals because of hearing the rumors of individuals. This is equivalent to practicing the way of gods in Shinto, and can provide certain stable assistance to high-ranking legends and demigods who are trying to become gods.
Of course, only legendary level is not enough for becoming a god.
After all, the help that legend can provide is not very stable until it reaches a very ridiculous level. To put it bluntly, it is just like a child worshiping the hero in a certain story. This kind of belief How durable can it be? How firm can it be?
This can be seen from the fact that the beliefs of some Western gods are only spread within a small area, or are spread consciously among certain groups. The belief required to become a god requires not only breadth, but also purity.
In addition, legend cannot simply rely on various stories. It also needs a certain degree of deterrence. Otherwise, it will be very easy to be overtaken by some people who take advantage of the situation when conferring gods.
Goddess Alehir of the Golden Oasis handled this aspect better when she was anointed as a god.
As a demigod of the Pantheistic system of the Land of Shoulong, Alehir has considerable legend. Part of the legend also overlaps with the Pantheistic system of Shoulong. Therefore, after she left the pantheon, she immediately created gold. The oasis allows its own legend to gain a certain degree of independence, and then it is specifically targeted at businessmen and travelers traveling to and from the oasis, as well as some trapped people in the desert.
During this period, the goddess Alehir even specially opened up fields around the oasis, and extradited some of the people from the Land of Shoulong to live and work here. After all the people in the golden oasis became her followers, she began to try to become a god.
From this point of view, although the legend of this goddess is sufficient, it does not have enough deterrence, because she does not have any strong achievements, and there are signs of parting ways with the Shoulong God System. If she seeks a powerful priesthood, it is very difficult. May be targeted by some true gods.
It is not that similar situations have never occurred. There are rumors that Talos, the god of natural disasters, helped certain demigods break through and robbed them of their divinity, priesthood, and divine power the moment they became true gods.
Therefore, the goddess Alehir was very cautious when she became a god. She chose the regional priesthood that was most despised by the gods as her core priesthood, and then based on the fields she mastered, she got involved in the two priesthoods of Wind and Sand and Illusion, step by step. It can be regarded as a steady progress, which provides Milo with certain experience in the future.
'However, the level of legend gathered in me seems to be a bit high, and it seems to be mixed with some concepts similar to faith. Is it because of Bai Lu's help? '
Milo carefully sensed the power similar to faith gathered in him, as well as the prayers and help from some travelers who had suffered in the Juge Plains. He felt something was wrong in his heart. The next time the White Deer arrived, he asked the demigod if he could help. Spread your own reputation.
