Watching the young figure drifting away, the descendants of the Earth Spider Clan fell into a long silence.
Before arriving in this country by the sea, they had no idea that the future of their family as told by their family elders was not to join the five traditional ninja villages, but to join this emerging Yaoyin Village, and that this power The leader is still a young man of similar age to himself.
Although, in their isolated lives, they had more or less heard about the reputation of the Uchiha clan and the title of 'Blood Shura'.
But it's time to put yourself and your family's fate and future on this force and young leader at the center of the whirlpool.
There is still some resistance in their hearts,
There was even regret that he should not have left the clan so easily.
"Lord Patriarch,"
"The name of Kage seems to be a title that only the leaders of the five great ninja villages can have."
"Ara-sama's name and the reputation of the Uchiha clan are very loud."
"But are our gestures too humble?"
When the young leader, who was similar to them in age, completely disappeared from sight, several descendants of the Earth Spider clan who were moved by the situation looked at each other and spoke out the crux of the matter in their hearts.
And as soon as he recalled that the eldest member of his family had bowed his head and called him 'Master Yaoying', Yu's face couldn't help but feel hot with shame.
You must know that due to the terrifying power that can be released by the family's secret technique, [Wrathful Sky], even the third generation Hokage of Konoha is placed on the same footing.
"Master, we don't have to let the Earth Spider Clan join."
Upon hearing the questioning question from the clansman, the first person to answer was not the traveler, but Yingying beside him.
And dissatisfaction can be clearly heard in his voice.
This is not just because as a member of the main family who was secretly 'expelled' from the village, he has no special bonds or feelings with his own people.
It was even more because she had witnessed her master's terrifying strength and powerful heritage with her own eyes.
After all, even the unconventional Sora Ninja lineage showed no desire to dominate or possess, let alone the Earth Spider Clan, which didn't even have a few ninjas.
Yes, the family's secret technique is very powerful.
But it also takes a certain amount of time to accumulate strength, and in that gap, which may be long or short, not only the master, but also the sword wielder who behaved strangely that night can end the battle.
Of course, the most important point is,
Mr. Huang is her master!
Compared to a family that doesn't give him much family affection and sense of belonging, there is no need to weigh or think about which is more important.
The young girl's sudden strong defense made the expressions of several young descendants of the Earth Spider Clan who raised questions stiffen. The shame in their eyes also quickly evolved into shame and anger at this moment.
After all, dozens of people on our side came out of the village at the will of the patriarch. They had a passion to revitalize the family, but they never expected to be directly rejected by the successor of the patriarch.
Such behavior of turning the arms outward is somewhat unacceptable to these young earth spider tribesmen.
"firefly!"
"Watch your attitude."
The traveler naturally felt the tense atmosphere, so he immediately shouted out the girl's dissatisfaction.
At the same time, there were obscure emotions welling up in his eyes.
After only a few days of not seeing each other, his sweet and frail granddaughter showed changes in her personality. It must have been that during the short period of following that person, she witnessed some things that were enough to subvert her cognition.
Although such words are definitely a bit hurtful to the clan members, for a ninja and a successor to the clan leader, it is not a bad thing to become increasingly tough and decisive in character.
"Yes, I'm sorry, I got a little emotional."
The girl's expression suddenly froze when she heard the scolding, and then she apologized to the tribesmen beside her.
"but........."
But an apology is an apology, and it does not mean that she has any change in her will.
Moreover, he has every reason to believe that the reason why his master accepted these younger generations of the Earth Spider Clan and even specially set aside an area as an area for the clansmen to gather and live was because he did not really expect what kind of support his fellow clansmen would provide in the future. For help, it’s just for grandpa’s sake.
"But what Hotaru and you said are all right."
Before the girl could express her thoughts in calmer words, Yu Zhixingzhe already took over the rest of the story on his own, in order to clear up some misunderstandings between the two parties.
After all, these young people in the clan who have not been born for a long time have never seen the experience that Yingying has accumulated in the past few days. There is a huge cognitive gap between the two.
"Master Huang doesn't care whether the Earth Spider Clan joins or not."
"Because our joining will not only not provide him with substantial help, but will also take up resources that need to be poured into other families and forces."
Regarding this point, the young descendants from the Earth Spider Clan cannot refute.
Although they also have the title of a clan, they are completely different from a powerful family like Uchiha.
This is also the reason why these young people want to come out!
In the context of the long-established five major forces that are more or less in decline, the long-held passion in their hearts urges them to "stir up the situation"!
"It is indeed inappropriate to use demon shadow to describe that adult."
After feeling the reluctance and the gradually rising sense of shame in the hearts of the young tribesmen, the traveler continued.
Such words made the tribesmen who followed feel a slight positive change in their emotions.
Sure enough, even if it was rumored that the person of the same age as them had messed up Konoha General Motoyama, he could not be worthy of the title [Kage]!
However, before such a similar resonance could restore some of their own dignity, the patriarch who led them out added again:
"After all, 'Shadow' alone may not be able to describe how special he is."
"If I have to describe it, then the two people who pushed the Mori Senju and the Uchiha clan to the center of the ninja world may be the most appropriate metaphor for them."
The traveler calmly spoke with extremely high and terrifying comments.
Not only did such words make the young disciples who followed him unbelievable, but even the servant Dunbei, who always maintained trust and respect for him, had trembling eyes, and some couldn't believe that this was coming from his master's mouth. if!
You must know that many years ago, the person I followed was also a Lord who feared that the world would not be in chaos and who only respected himself! !
Otherwise, the old fox in Konoha would not have come to use the safety of future generations as a bargaining chip when his master entered his twilight years; nor would the 'Ai' in Hidden Cloud Village who prefers to collect ninjutsu from various villages. I haven’t dared to venture into Mount Katsuragi for so many years.
But the Lord, who was so unruly and possessed of a devastating weapon, directly said such terrifying words.
"The legendary ninja?"
A descendant of the earth spider clan murmured to himself, this is the common title shared by the world for those two powerful beings.
It is almost the highest evaluation of Ninja's journey, far beyond what a 'shadow' can cover!
You know, even though he has been in power for a lifetime and has used the power of a small country to challenge the three surrounding countries, Lord Sanshouyu Hanzo is only respected as a 'demigod' by the world, and he is far from reaching the level of those two!
Such a comment was really shocking. Only Yingying's eyes were in a state of clear recognition and excitement.
【The legendary ninja,】
【No,】
[Master’s future may be even better than this! ! 】
A higher determination surged in her heart.
"Um."
"So, do you choose to stay and witness together, or leave here."
"Make your own choice, I won't interfere."
Mindful of the strong emotions in the eyes of these young people, Yizhi Xingzhe gave the final choice to these young people themselves.
After all, he has said everything that needs to be said.
And compared to the Earth Spider clan, its greatest selfishness is Yingying.
As long as the last one can save Yingying's life, then he doesn't care about the family's reputation.
After coming into contact with the warrior, Huang directly climbed to Tangquan Mountain.
Torii, stone lamp, shrine...
Along the way, the prototype of a shrine gradually appeared on the top of the mountain where there was only a little vegetation.
This was his previous promise to Fengshen Yimulian.
I came here this time to make some preparations for the next trip.
The key to entering the City of the Sun has been obtained, but the potential dangers to be faced are a bit tricky: after all, it is a divine punishment from Takamagahara.
This will also be the first time he faces the power of the gods, so he wants to get some information about the gods from the former Wind God.
"Onmyoji-sama."
When he saw Ara approaching, Ichimokuren was already waiting in front of the shrine.
The wind all over the mountains and plains are his ears, eyes and messengers.
"Are you still used to it here?"
"It's very nice here. Thank you, Master Onmyoji, for taking me in."
The conversation started with polite greetings, and then went directly to the main topic, about the gods on Gaotianyuan.
"Takamagahara."
When these three words were repeated, some waves appeared on Ichimokulian's calm face. The red dragon behind Yu Zhi also showed some uneasiness. Not only the ferocious dragon head was raised frequently, but also the pair of Nuo Nuo. The large demonic pupils also showed clear disgust and fear.
"In fact, I don't know much about the gods in Takamaki. Even if I accepted worship from the villagers before, I can only be regarded as an insignificant little god in the mountains. He may disappear anytime and anywhere due to the lack of faith. It doesn’t really involve Takamagahara.”
Ichimura spoke very humbly, without any sense of pride as a god.
And this is also consistent with the information Huang knows. It is rumored that there are a terrifying number of eight million gods registered in Gao Tianyuan.
But this terrifying number is because the spirits and monsters that can receive offerings and incense can be called gods in a sense.
Moreover, although eight million may seem like a large number, many weak old gods disappear every year, every month, or even every day because they are forgotten by believers and lose their power. Among them, they can truly stand in the land of gods for a long time. There are not many gods.
"As for the degree of natural punishment, it can be divided into three levels."
"The third level directly brings disasters, such as sudden plagues, landslides, floods, hurricanes, etc."
"The second level of stimulating one's own divine power is mostly done by touching the reverse scale or commandment of a powerful god."
"The first class to start a divine war in the name of the gods. The former evil god Yamata no Orochi offended the gods because of his behavior, so he was sealed in a narrow room where he could not be born."
"However, the so-called heavenly punishments are mostly punishments imposed by gods on their own descendants, or by a god who betrayed Gao Tianyuan. They will not be directed at other living beings, otherwise they will inevitably suffer a certain degree of backlash, especially the latter two. The price involved is even greater.”
"So, if a certain god really wants to target a certain ethnic group or ordinary living beings, he will only use an indirect method of causing disasters, otherwise he himself will be entangled in karma that is difficult to wash away."
"Moreover, if the affected creatures can withstand the disasters sent by the gods, then there will be no other divine punishments within a certain period of time, because the number of disasters is also one of the reasons for the backlash."
"Master Onmyoji, did you have any unpleasant experience with any god?"
Ichimura spoke in a rather general way about the gods of Takamagahara and divine punishment, but he was able to draw an important conclusion:
In order to avoid possible karma, the gods will not take action personally. Even if they take action, most of them are directed at their descendants or other gods.
Huang's slightly uneasy mood gradually subsided. As long as the gods would not end up personally, then he would feel much more at ease for the rest of the trip.
Moreover, bringing disaster is only the weakest form of divine punishment. If you can't even think of a way to deal with this weakest divine power, then how will you face the wrath of God mentioned by Brother Tiaotiao in the future?
Reversal of reincarnation, resurrection of the dead,
This can be regarded as touching the brow of a certain god.
"Not me at the moment,"
"The descendant of the Sun God from the City of the Sun wants to marry an ordinary human being."
"Might cause some kind of divine punishment."
Huang simply explained the reason.
"Sun God?"
"That truly superior god!"
The Onmyoji in front of Yu could tell the identity of the god in an understatement, but Ichimokuren could not guarantee complete peace. Not only was the shock and pity in his eyes endless, but even the side of his body couldn't help but lift up. The restless evil wind.
It is no exaggeration to say that the difference between them is simply like a firefly and the sun, there is no comparison at all! !
"The name of the Sun God cannot be blasphemed. That ancient land may suffer a catastrophe."
After a while, Yimu Lian spoke solemnly.
After all, the more powerful the gods are, the less they can accept such things that violate Gao Tianyuan's rules.
"Do you want it, Onmyoji-sama?"
At the same time, he suddenly asked as if he suddenly remembered something.
"Well, I want to go there."
Huang nodded lightly.
