The establishment of Yan's ancestral temple and the sacrifices went very smoothly, although the ordinary people of the tribe were a little disappointed because Yan did not show up.
But after the completion of the ancestral temple, the incense used to worship Yan was not affected at all.
On the one hand, Yan Dui has Yan's achievements, which are well known to everyone. Coupled with the publicity myths some time ago, it is clear that everyone's admiration for him will not diminish just because he does not show up.
On the other hand, the huge commotion caused by Yan's sacrifice to the sacred tree for refining spiritual treasures on Lingshan also gave everyone a very intuitive impression of Yan's mystery and tyranny, further deepening the tribe's awe of him.
Because of the strong incense, in the newly built ancestral temple, some mysterious changes quietly occurred in the statue in the center of the temple that had just been consecrated by Yan's spiritual thoughts.
Although it had only been officially designated for tribal sacrifices not long ago, a large amount of humanistic faith had already gathered in Yan's statue in a short period of time.
The accumulation of a large amount of faith power allowed the numerous humanistic wishes and some of the fate of the Yan clan and the human race to be gathered in the statue.
Then the little bit of spiritual thought from Yan in the statue was brought out, and it was connected with Yan's own luck and merit, and then combined with the divine authority given by humanity.
Under the combined effect of the three, slowly, mysterious changes began to take place in the statue, with Yan's spiritual thoughts as the core.
A touch of pure golden divine power suddenly but naturally appeared in the statue, and then more and more, until all the power of faith in the statue was replaced by divine power.
Yan naturally knew the changes in his statue in the ancestral temple at the foot of the mountain. He did not stop this natural change, but was happy to see it happen.
After all, there is a way in heaven and earth, and it is natural. Even Lao Tzu said: Man follows the earth, earth follows the heaven, heaven follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature.
This natural change in the idol allowed Yan to face the essence of the way of ghosts and gods, which in turn gave him a clearer and more intuitive understanding of the way of the gods.
Speaking of which, Qi Yan was no stranger to Shinto, and could even be said to have a very good understanding of it.
After all, on the one hand, he had heard Yao explain in detail the way of cultivation in the ancient god's residence. In addition, he himself also created the God-conferring Talisman from the Youtong magical power, personally conferred ghosts and gods, and even learned the magical power to exorcise gods through it.
However, even so, it will never be like facing the generation of divine power and clearly and intuitively understanding the mystery of the way to believe in ghosts and gods like this time.
With the generation of divine power, Yan could clearly feel that the statues in the ancestral temple at the foot of the mountain seemed to have undergone some wonderful changes.
He seemed to suddenly have his own divinity and spiritual awareness. Although he had no independent consciousness, he could respond to the prayers of certain believers within the scope of his priesthood through the newly generated divine power.
With this change, Yan could feel that the incense faith in his body was slowly becoming orderly, and was being gathered into the statues one by one, turning into new divine power.
Some of the people who were originally contaminated by Yan's body wanted to have their beliefs completely stripped away, and a sense of tranquility emerged spontaneously.
Instantly, I felt that my whole body felt much more relaxed from the inside out.
It was also at this time that Yan realized that the legend about the poisonous incense in his previous life was obviously not groundless.
You know, it is precisely because of this statement in his previous life that Yan has been trying his best to avoid directly absorbing the power of incense.
All incense beliefs are contained in the magic lamp made of merit and divine fire.
Originally, with such precautions, Yan always thought that he was not affected by the incense belief. But now it seems that I still underestimated the power of incense belief.
However, after thinking about it, I felt relieved.
Humanity belief represents the power of humanity among the three talents of heaven and earth. As a power that can make gods out of thin air, how can it be simple?
But fortunately, Yan now has his own Shinto statue, which is like an intelligent Shinto body. It can collect humane incense and faith for him and handle most Shinto matters.
In addition to allowing Yan to maintain his tranquility and detachment, he can also continue to gather humane merits for him, maintain his influence among the human race, and continue to share the fate of the human race and the Yan family.
Just like now, Yan's luck has also changed due to the sacrifices he received from the Yan clan and the divine power of the statue at the foot of the mountain.
On the one hand, it can be clearly felt that his influence on the Yan clan is increasing, and he can share more of the luck of the human race with the help of blessings than before.
On the other hand, with the emergence of divine power and divinity, Yan has completely established its foundation in Shinto, thus increasing its foundation a lot.
Luck will naturally follow these changes, becoming more stable and showing some growth.
In addition to the changes in luck, the changes in the statue also allowed Yan's own soul to be infected with a trace of divinity through the little spiritual thought in the statue.
This trace of divinity not only allows Yan to freely mobilize the divine power in the statue, but also allows Yan to more easily control the power of the surrounding heaven and earth within the scope of divine authority.
At the same time, it can also allow him to get closer to the nature of heaven and earth within this range, which will be of great help to him in understanding the great way.
"Haha! I didn't expect such an unexpected surprise."
Even Yiyan's city couldn't help but laugh alone after understanding the various benefits brought by the transformation of the gods.
At this time, Yan was chatting with Sanmeiyu in his yard on Lingshan Mountain.
"Brother, why are you so happy there?" Yan suddenly smiled stupidly, making Yu a little confused. He couldn't help but curiously poked his head in and asked.
Yan turned his head and glanced at Yu, the smile on his face remained unchanged, and he replied casually: "It's okay! I suddenly thought about some cultivation issues clearly."
Yu was slightly stunned by this explanation, then looked at Yan with envy and said, "Really? Brother, you are so lucky. Just chatting with me like this can generate inspiration."
"I don't know what's going on in the past few years. My cultivation seems to have suddenly stagnated. No matter how hard I try, there is no progress." At the end of the sentence, Yu lowered his head in frustration.
As for Yu's situation, Yan was also aware of it during this period of his return. But because of the tribal ancestral temple and the refining of the spirit treasure, I didn't bother to interfere for a while.
It was precisely because of this that Yan specially called Yu over today.
Now that he heard her take the initiative to mention this matter, Yan finally put away the smile on his face, looked at her seriously for a few times, and then said seriously:
"Your problem ultimately needs to be understood and solved by yourself, and I can't give you a clear answer. After all, each of us has our own way. My way may not be correct for you, and it may even mislead you. ."
"But I know that the Tao of Heaven, although its shape cannot be seen and its sound cannot be heard, is everywhere. The sky, the earth, the jungle, and every move we make, are all Tao."
"Therefore, there is no real formula for our pursuit of the Tao. Since we are not making progress through hard meditation, we will find another way."
"Just right! Now that the tribe's ancestral temple has been established and the yin and yang passage has been opened, you can go down the mountain for me, catch ghosts, collect yin, and clean up the yin and yang."
"In this way, you can gain merit and take the opportunity to find the key to breakthrough."
Yan didn't know why, but he felt a little resistant to preaching directly to people, so he didn't directly solve Yu's problem in his own way.
I'm just giving some suggestions from the side, just to lighten some of the burden on myself.
Yan's words caused a flash of thought in Yu's eyes, then he raised his head and nodded to Yan, and said: "Then I will go down the mountain and try as my brother said."
Yan nodded, got up and went into the house, took out his backpack and handed it to Yu, saying: "Take this backpack, it will help you. After using it, leave it in the ancestral temple."
However, after Yan just saw the effect of divine power, he felt that the effect of this humane weapon would be better if he continued to refine it with the merits of humane faith and divine power.
