"Brother Tashan, so the totems of gods are the inheritance left by the ancient gods before they died. Is this correct?"
Yu Yan's voice rang loudly, causing Mu Haotian to put aside his distracting thoughts and look towards Tashan.
Tashan did not answer immediately this time. He frowned and thought for a while before saying:
"It is actually not accurate to say that the totems of gods are the inheritance of gods. After all, it is impossible to become new gods through practice now."
After a pause, he continued:
"To be honest, I only know a little bit about this aspect. Most of it was told by a friend of mine - she also has a god totem and has done a lot of research on it.
"According to her, totems can be seen as the crystallization of part of the divine power and mysteries of gods. Totem owners can use and gradually develop until they fully control the power of the totem. In addition, they can gain insights from it and help themselves practice."
After hearing these words, the rest of the people looked at Jing Ling with envy.
Yuyan thought:
"My junior sister turns out to have superpowers, so how could she let me bully her before?"
Then he said:
"Junior sister Wang, since you have such great ability, why have you always given in to me before? Thank you very much."
Jing Ling listened to her words with thanks, but her tone was accusatory, and she hurriedly said:
"No... no, senior sister, you are very skilled in martial arts, I am indeed no match for you."
Yu Yan spat:
"Bah! I don't have any strong martial arts skills. Don't you know my three-legged cat skills? You just love to deceive people."
After saying that, I saw Jing Ling scratching her head and ears, in a panic. She recalled that she had always been honest and respected her as a senior sister. The slight resentment that she had suspected that she was deliberately deceiving quickly disappeared, and she said softly:
"Junior sister, that god totem is indeed an incredible divine object. You are truly blessed! I hope you will not be arrogant or impetuous and master its secrets as soon as possible."
After hearing these words, Jing Ling finally felt relieved and responded:
"Yes! Senior sister."
Tashan spoke slightly, wanting to warn Jing Ling, but in the end he didn't say anything. After a moment, he said:
"God totems are similar to the natural spiritual treasures I told you before. Most of them are spiritual and can choose their own masters. Generally speaking, outsiders cannot take them by force... but people's hearts are unpredictable! There are many fish and dragons in the world, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no evil intentions. Disciple, before you truly control the power of the totem, you should try not to be known to outsiders."
"Brother Tashan is right. It's a crime to possess a jade. Junior Sister Ling'er, you must remember it."
Mu Haotian gave Jing Ling serious instructions.
Jing Ling nodded solemnly three times.
"And what I told you before..."
Mu Haotian added another sentence.
Jing Ling had a smile on her lips and nodded three more times.
Mu Haotian turned to Shuang Shu and said:
"You two also remember to keep junior sister's secret and don't leak this matter."
The two girls said in unison:
"Yes! Senior Brother Mu."
Senior Brother Mu was very satisfied. He looked around the faces of the three women, suddenly smiled, and said to Tashan:
"As I was talking, I forgot about it. Brother Tashan, you gave us such a precious treasure. We really deserve it, and there is nothing we can do about it..."
While he was speaking, he stretched out his hand to grope around on his body, but suddenly remembered that two of the sword feathers of the Night Owl had been given to Pei Yong, in exchange for three water condensation fruits, and dozens of rattles of the Vine Warriors. I felt I was losing money, but I couldn't take it out at the moment, so I suddenly fell into a very embarrassing situation.
Tashan saw that he couldn't find anything after searching for a long time. He was stunned for a moment, then understood his embarrassment and quickly waved his hand to stop him.
Just as she was about to tell him not to take it to heart, she saw Xue Ying standing up, holding something in both hands, and delivering it to him.
All of a sudden, various aromas hit your nose, some as elegant as daisies, or as fragrant as orchid and musk deer. Take a breath, the sweetness is mixed with a hint of bitterness, refreshing the heart and spleen, making people bright and refreshing.
Tashan Wonders:
"Sister Xueying, what is this?"
Xueying blushed and said:
"Brother Tashan, our gate in Xuanwuji Mountain is deserted and we can't bring out anything valuable. Here are four sachets, one filled with medicinal materials, one filled with buds, and the other two are mixed with various herbs and The petals and stamens are all grown and made by our brothers and sisters ourselves. They are not rare things, I just want to show you a little bit of my feelings."
Mu Haotian's ears felt hot when he heard it, and he thought:
"Ying'erlan has a very good heart. When she saw that I was about to be embarrassed, she rushed to the rescue. She obviously made these sachets herself, but she included all of us. She was really considerate."
There was infinite tenderness in my heart, and I wanted to hold her in my arms.
Tashan didn't know this, so he rubbed his hands, took the four sachets, put them one by one at his nose, took a deep sniff, and praised:
"It's such a delicate sachet. It looks like it's filled with medicinal herbs and flowers, but it's actually filled with the affection of a young girl. Now I'm taking advantage."
After saying this, he took the precious thing into his arms.
Hearing something in his words, Mu Haotian and Shuang Shu looked at each other, and they both remembered his previous chant and joke about "I know women's hearts", and their hearts were filled with ripples.
Only Jing Ling curled her lips and scratched her head, not having any thoughts about this.
After a while, Tashan patted his head and said:
"That's right! I haven't told you how to activate the Tears of the Underworld Mother yet."
When the four of them heard this, they immediately listened.
Tashan gestured to the four of them to come closer to him, and then whispered:
"The Styx Ghost Mother is the god of extradition of the Styx. She needs to frighten all the ghosts crossing the river, so she has the power of fear and likes to collect fear.
"The Stygian Ghost Mother herself only sheds tears when she feels extreme fear. Therefore, if you want to activate the 'Tears of the Styx Mother', the first step is to imagine the thing you are most afraid of in your life and brew it first. To express the emotion of fear. Think about it first, what is the thing you are most afraid of?"
Yu Yan first said:
"I'm most afraid of thunder."
Jing Ling continued:
"I'm most afraid of going hungry."
Xueying hesitated and said:
"I, I'm most afraid of..."
Tashan smiled and blurted out:
"You are most afraid that your senior brother will leave you, aren't you?"
Xue Ying's pretty face was filled with clouds, and she buried her head in silence.
Yuyan looked at Mu Haotian and said hurriedly:
"Is this okay? Then what I'm most afraid of is not thunder..."
Tashan waved and smiled:
"Okay, okay, as long as it is what you are afraid of, the reason why I say 'most' is: the stronger the fear, the stronger the protective power generated by the activation of 'Tears of the Underworld'. If you are suddenly in danger or in a hurry, you can just think of whatever you want."
The four people suddenly realized that they each thought about the things they were afraid of in their lives. With this thought, it seemed that even the sunny sky quickly turned gloomy.
Regarding fear, everyone finds that they have many answers in their hearts. Every time they think of something, their shoulders shake and they shudder.
In an instant, the four of us were jolted one after another, bumping and bumping one after another.
Tashan smiled and gave a loud high-five, causing them to look at him. Suddenly they noticed something, looked up at the black clouds floating in the sky, and continued to speak in a low voice:
"To activate the Tears of the Underworld Mother, the first step is to brew fear, and the second step is to recite the spell in the midst of fear. I'll say it again, just recite it silently in your heart, it's very easy to remember -
"The angry mountain is angry, and the mad sword cuts the river."
"A furious mountain and a mad sword cutting off a river?"
The four of them recited it silently in their hearts. Every time they recited it, they felt a little strange. After they memorized it, they all thought:
"Is this also a spell?"
But they were too embarrassed to ask.
Tashan saw their doubts and explained:
"The magic weapons and utensils refined by Taoist secret rituals, like some special spells, will have instructions for stimulating them, which can be incantations, gestures, finger tricks, or even whistles, whatever the style."
Mu Haotian suddenly felt a heat in his chest when he heard this, thinking that Han Wenjing would snap his fingers every time before using the moon blade, and thought to himself:
"Is that her lead?"
Then I heard Tashan continue:
"Generally speaking, if the order is given, the method will be fulfilled. While imagining the things you fear, and reciting the incantation, you can successfully activate the 'Tears of the Underworld Mother'. If you want to ensure that nothing goes wrong, there is one more key point. Then Even when reciting the incantation, it is best to use a fearful tone..."
"The angry mountain is angry, and the mad sword cuts the river!"
Before Tashan finished speaking, he suddenly heard Yu Yan's voice trembling and she finished reciting the mantra in one breath.
As she gave the order, everyone's eyes dimmed, and when their eyes gathered together, they suddenly felt frightened.
Yu Yan, a living person, disappeared out of thin air!
