Gao Tianyuan.
Kamiyagawa rang the bell once on Takamagahara yesterday, and this morning the medicine seller responded to the call and came back.
The purpose of meeting this old friend was to buy medicine, the [Qiangshen Jiuwei Pill] that Uncle Yuuki needed.
Judging from the current stock of underworld currency in the Valley of Gods, these small pills in clay pots are quite cheap, with one pot only costing 650 soul crystals.
I bought four cans and used them as backup for the tuition fees that I will give to Uncle Yuki later.
In addition to the kidney-strengthening pills, Kamiya also bought a dose of [Life Extension Purple Gold Cream].
"Money and goods are both in order."
The medicine seller took out medicine from his large medicine box and accepted nearly ten thousand soul crystals.
"Wait a minute. Yao Lang, I have something else to ask you."
"you say."
That's the good thing about dealing with a medicine seller. Although the medicine he sells here is expensive, it's free to ask for some information and ask him to provide some moderate help.
"Do you know about the bones of God?"
Divine bones and divine bones, Kamiyakawa has three copies in total——
They are the sacred bones of Mt. Fuji's sacred tree, Kaikai Yehime, the sacred bones of Huangquan Heiganyin's thunder god, and the sacred bones of the Ainu old god.
The three divine bones come from three different forces: Shintoism, the land of the underworld, and the land of the Ainu roots.
What they have in common is that the three objects who produced skeletons are all serious gods in their respective powers, that is, the true gods who are different from the Arakami. The materials left behind by the righteous gods should be very powerful no matter how you think about it.
As for the divine bones, the identification information given by "Kaitan Monogatari" is that it may be useful in some advanced rituals.
Regarding this piece of information, when Kamiyagawa was reading books about myths and stories before, he actually had some ideas, but he was not sure.
In order to verify his conjecture, he had two subjects to ask.
One is Yausikpu, the spider goddess from the Ainu side, and the other is naturally the medicine seller in front of her. Comparing the two, Kamitani chose the medicine seller who was closer to him.
The medicine seller raised his eyelids slightly and glanced at Shen Gu: "Did you get the god's bones?"
"Hmm. Is this thing used for Kaitan's promotion?"
"You can understand it that way, but it's not just the weird stories of your men. Since you want to be the co-master of ghosts and gods, and you want to ascend the throne of God in Gaotianyuan, sooner or later you will have to use it."
"Even I can use it?"
"It seems like you really don't know what that thing is for."
"Do you know if I still want to ask you..."
Although the medicine seller's face did not express any expression, because of the painted lips, it still gave people the feeling of a smile but not a smile: "The bones of gods are used to become gods. They are not promoted to desolate gods. According to your Understand, he is an S-class righteous god."
"Material for A to be promoted to S?"
"It's like this. If you want to be promoted to the True God, three conditions, flesh, spirit, and bones, are indispensable. The flesh is the strength of the body, the spirit is the abundant faith and incense, and the last bone refers to the original True God. The skeleton." The medicine seller further explained.
Kamiyagawa felt vaguely familiar with the flesh, spirit, and bones he mentioned.
After thinking about it, it seems that Fate Yamahiko in Aokigahara also used the method of collecting "flesh and spirit bones" to shape his body?
However, Yamabiko's version is a very low-end version, and the "flesh and bones" are replaced by other monsters. Previously, it seemed that Kamiyagawa was planned to be used as the "bones", and the "spirits" are a large number of living souls.
"The ritual in Aokigahara is imitating the process of promotion from A-level to S-level?" Kamiyakawa thought in his heart.
Considering that Yamabiko, Yamaba, and King Inokasa in the Aokigahara Sea of Trees were all transformed from the materials left behind after the corrupted Konohana Kaiyehime's death, it seems normal that Yamabiko would know about the ritual of becoming a god?
Or perhaps, Yamahiko did not fully obtain Konohana Kaiyeji's memory and knowledge, and his understanding was deviated, which is why the low-end version of the ritual was so evil.
"If you want to be promoted to an S-class true god, why do you have to use the bones of the old god?" Kamiyakawa asked again.
"Because divine bones are limited, you can understand divine bones as a non-renewable resource. Possessing divine bones is a necessary prerequisite for promotion to S level. Only the gods who came to heaven and earth in ancient times have this Divine bones. And this kind of gods, that is, the original righteous gods, are born in a certain number and have divided the divinity between heaven and earth. After that, even the descendants of the gods will not have innate divine bones. "
According to the medicine seller, divine bones seem to be a very important divine resource.
Kamiyagawa was a little lucky that he had collected three copies without knowing it.
In addition, it is recalled that after the battle of Kamuili Wenhua, Yausikpu directly handed over the sacred bones of the Black God of Thunder to him. Now that he knew the importance of the divine bones, Kamiya belatedly felt more favorable towards the Ainu Spider Goddess.
Kamiya: "Then what you mean is that I will also use the bones of gods in the future?"
Medicine seller: "To become the co-master of ghosts and gods, of course you have to be a righteous god, right? As far as I know, aren't your skilled craftsmen working step by step so that you can absorb enough 'spirits'?"
As both craftsmen in Gaotian Plains, the medicine seller and Kaku had naturally chatted with each other.
Kamiyakawa could roughly understand the meaning of his words.
The so-called craftsman sister is working so that Kamiya can house "spirits", which refers to the construction of the shrine.
All the shrines that Kaku has built so far, including those to be built in the future, have the same characteristics. That is, the faith collected by shikigami will be fed back to Kamiya River in a very small amount through the material of "reverse pillar" and the contractual connection between Kamiya and shikigami.
The purpose of doing this is to allow Kamiya to consolidate the power of ghosts and gods in his body, and to build a shrine belonging to Kamiya in the future.
So she is indeed preparing for Kamiyagawa to collect "spirits", that is, incense beliefs.
In addition, Sister Jue did not know the purpose of the divine bones.
I have asked her about this before. After all, she is the "Prop Material Research Officer" under Kamiyagawa, and Kamiyagawa trusts her more than the medicine seller.
However, I have said before that strangers cannot directly enjoy the incense and faith. The body will be overwhelmed and can easily be washed away by the incense.
Now think about it, maybe the knowledge mastered by the master craftsmen of the assistants of the co-masters of ghosts and gods coincides with the "body, spirit and bone becoming a god" ceremony——
You must have a strong "flesh" to be able to accept the "spirit".
When the "flesh" and "spirit" are strong and abundant to a certain extent, they can finally accommodate the "bones".
"Can a wild god only accept one kind of god's bones?"
Seeing that the medicine seller, who was an S-class god, seemed to be very familiar with the material of divine bones, Kamiyagawa asked some more questions, intending to directly clarify the ritual of becoming a god.
As a reliable ally, the medicine seller knew everything and answered: "Generally, one type is accepted. But this is not necessarily the case. As long as the flesh and spirit are strong enough, more bones can be accepted. Moreover, the strength of the bones is also It is not uniform. The stronger the bones, the higher the physical and spiritual strength required. In addition, the stronger the bones accepted by the righteous gods, the stronger they themselves will be."
"Also, since the divine bones are left behind by the old God, is there really no hidden danger in the later Aragami absorbing the 'bones'? For example, the old God is resurrected in the body or something?"
"That's not the case." The medicine seller shook his head firmly:
"Bones were originally the divinity between heaven and earth, and were illusory. They were absorbed by the first righteous gods when they came into the world, and then they took on a real shape. But bones were originally dead things. After the old gods fell, they were the same as they once were. It doesn’t matter if your bones are broken.”
"However, the old gods have laid some basic directions for the godhead for those 'bones'. This means that the god of waste who wants to be promoted to a god later must consider his own compatibility to choose the appropriate god's bones."
Take the skeleton of Mt. Fuji's sacred tree Hanakayehime held by Kamitani River as an example.
When the wooden flowers bloomed and Ye Ji came to the world, she absorbed the divinity and spirituality in the heaven and earth, and gave birth to divine bones in her body.
The godhead held by His bones was fixed.
About the generative power of vegetation and forests, and about the destructive power of volcanoes.
For the Arakami who later want to absorb the bones of Konohana Kaiyehime, the shrine they built when they were in Class B must be consistent with the compatibility of this god's bones.
Kamiyagawa had guessed before that Arakami's choice of authority to build the shrine would likely affect subsequent promotion paths.
Looking at it now, this conjecture is correct.
"Understood." Kamiyakawa nodded thoughtfully, "By the way, you can also accommodate the bones of gods, right?"
The medicine seller was a boy who served the Eastwarder a thousand years ago. He obviously did not belong to the type of old gods who were born with the bones of gods in their mouths in ancient centuries.
Therefore, he must have accepted a certain divine bone.
"Clams are better than selling."
The medicine seller nodded and directly revealed the name of the old god who accepted the divine bones.
Kamiyakawa has read a lot of mythology books, so he naturally knows the name of this god.
Clam Beibimai and another goddess Clambeibimai are a pair of sister gods.
Both are incarnations of the godhead in the shell.
It is recorded in mythology that the Lord of Izumo was persecuted by his eighty brothers (collectively referred to as the Eighty Gods), and was pushed to a red-hot rock and scalded to death by the Eighty Gods.
After the nest was born, the sun god sent the clam Beibimai and the cockle Beibimai.
The clam beibimei peeled off the shells of the clams and burned them, while the clam beibimei released the water in the clam's body, dissolved the shell powder in the water to make a cream, and then applied it to the body of the great king. .
After a while, the great king was resurrected, and he was even more handsome than before.
Therefore, both shell goddesses have the power to heal diseases and heal injuries.
This is indeed consistent with the compatibility of the medicine seller.
After some exchanges with the medicine seller, Kamiyagawa finally understood the function of the divine bones and the final process of promotion to S-level.
But thinking about it, it seems that the three divine bones currently on hand do not match well with Mary and the little tapir who have already confirmed the shrine.
The divine skeleton of Yeji is in bloom, and the direction of the divine head is the growth of vegetation and the destruction of volcanoes. In addition, there should be the divine head of mountains.
The divine bones of the Black Gen Thunder God, should the direction of the godhead be darkness and thunder?
This may have to be determined for the Thunder.
Because during the battle with the Black God of Thunder, Kamiya did not see him release thunder. Although he was called the God of Thunder, he never struck thunder.
And judging from the image, fighting style and name of the Black Thunder God, it seems that this Yin Thunder God also has a certain godhead of mountains and rocks.
Finally, there is the Ainu old god, which should be related to the godhead of the sun.
Among the Kaidan shikigami under Kamiyagawa, only Hiyoribo seems to be able to relate to this one.
But Little Sun is still far away from being promoted to S level.
Although there are three divine bones on hand, none of them seem to be suitable for the main force.
…
Say goodbye to the medicine seller and leave Gao Tianyuan.
Kamiyagawa went to the mythical map Kamui.
Then we took the Ruyue train and went to Granny Oucao’s tribe.
The train station on the Kamui map is located at the door of their tribe. According to the region where the main god of the faith is located, the Kropokulu tribe, which is training all its members to be missionaries of the "Takamagahara God's Faith", was originally called the Reibunhua tribe.
Because the sun rises and sets again on the root land, this small settlement originally covered by snow has changed its appearance.
As the ice and snow melt, the originally dilapidated mud huts are also being rebuilt.
You can see the busy figures of little people outside.
This does mean a bit of prosperity.
As soon as they entered the tribe, several small Kropokulu people put down their work and gathered around them, noisily telling something to their god.
They spoke Ainu, which Kamiya couldn't understand, so he called out Karatengu as a translator. It took him some time to understand what these little people meant.
It's about the news from the Sacred Forest.
Granny Oucao met members of the Holy Forest tribe on her missionary journey, and then asked her subordinates to bring the news back to her tribe.
After going round and round, it is finally known to Kamui, who comes to Kamui for daily exploration.
"The tribes in the sacred forest are migrating south, and the sacred land of Ainu is still covered by the aura of corruption."
Kamiya was quite interested in this news.
Kamui's missionary mission will not be completed for a while, and there will be no progress in the inner world for a long time.
"That side of the Holy Forest was once the main battlefield of the Lightless Disaster. Can you still hear the sounds of fighting from a distance now?" Kamiya learned more about it through Wu Tengu's translation, "I don't know what's over there, maybe Is it the remaining enemy of Huangquan, or maybe there is the legacy of Acheng Thunder God who protects the holy land or his son, the heroic god Ainurakel?"
All in all, the Ainu Shrine side seems worth exploring.
However, as the main battlefield of the Lightless Disaster, there is likely to be something more dangerous than the Black Gen Yin Thunder God remaining there.
"How to get to the sacred forest?"
"All the way north." Wu Tengu immediately replied, "I can lead the way, Kamiya-sama. But it will take a long time to get there."
"I know, let's go out and tidy up first. By the way, let's take a seat to test the good and bad luck. If everything is arranged properly, we will go to the sacred forest to have a look."
Kamiyagawa immediately made up his mind.
