"If I read it correctly, your body has been irreparably damaged. Relying on the power of the human world, I'm afraid you won't be able to survive much longer. If you become a god, you can still rely on the power of the Kingdom of God to survive."
Hearing that his biggest secret was pointed out, a cold light suddenly flashed in the old man's eyes. He stared at Milo, but could not see the slightest flow of energy. The cold light was replaced by horror, and then was quickly covered by peace. He bowed
Said: "I didn't expect that there is such a revered god as you in the world. It is really rude not to go out to greet you. As for why there is no deity, can today's gods really be called gods?"
"Come here uninvited, just don't think I'm a bad visitor. As for the gods today, they really can't be called complete gods."
When Milo said this, his eyes did not fall on the old man at all, but played with the cup in his hand.
"Wish, fear, belief, protection, prayer... Let the belief in gods and the fear of monsters, relying on the essence of protecting one party, converge on this symbol of the contract signed by hundreds of ghosts. This object can be said to be a tripartite contract between gods, humans and ghosts.
, represents the concept of monsters protecting the night, no wonder it became a part of [禊], did you create this treasure unintentionally, or did you concentrate on it?"
The old man was not surprised by Milo's attitude. As an old monster who had lived for nearly a thousand years, the old man himself had seen too many things.
According to the time node corresponding to the giant tree, this old man can be said to have lived from the trunk position occupied by Milo to the era corresponding to the root of the tree. It can be said that the new gods of modern times were born and grew under his watch.
The old man is very aware of the limitations of today's gods, and is naturally unwilling to turn to the incomplete Shinto for the so-called immortality.
Similarly, the old man also knew how terrifying it was to be able to clearly see the essence of Bei Zhan in such a short period of time, and he also knew how terrible the consequences of lying in front of such existence would be.
The old man lowered his head and said respectfully: "It was not created accidentally, but with the help of an Onmyoji."
"That Onmyoji has never thought of intervening? Although the concept of this cup needs to be exchanged for sincerity and the fate is condensed on it, only then can the wish, fear, belief, shelter, and prayer be mixed together to make it a
[禊], but he should be able to influence the existence of [禊] by forming a bond with you, and finally use [禊] as a springboard to become a god. But I don’t seem to see the slightest trace of Shinto on [禊]
?”
Milo raised his head, looked at the old man, and listened to his explanation: "In that case, this [禊] will probably become part of Shinto."
When he said this, a faint divine light appeared on Milo's fingertips, wrapping around the cup like a vine, controlling the concept corresponding to [犊], and adding a layer of protective measures.
The old man lowered his head, his breath became a little illusory, and Milo chuckled: "Flowers in the mirror, moon in the water? He is indeed a slippery ghost. Even when communicating with high-ranking beings, he never forgets to look for opportunities. But for me,
Your breath is too obvious."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and flicked it, and ripples appeared in the surrounding void. The old man in front of Milo turned into smoke and disappeared. His true body appeared on Milo's left side. The blade had been unsheathed, and he tried to cut off Milo holding the cup.
hand.
"You don't have to worry. I have no intention of incorporating [禊] into Shinto. I just want to make it a little more stable. After all, this state of separation is the best choice for stabilizing the current situation." Milo walked forward.
After taking two steps, he returned the extra cup to the old man. At the same time, he lightly tapped his back with his fingers, and a little spiritual light appeared, and wisps of black air steamed out.
The moment the old man took the cup, he knew that its properties were more stable and not mixed with other things. The aura that appeared behind him immediately made him feel that a heavy burden had been lifted from his body, and the heart and lungs that had been taken away from him in the chest had also been repaired.
"Um?"
Milo frowned slightly. He found that he seemed to have underestimated the old man's problem. The other party's injury was not simply a seizure of organs, but another conceptual injury. He whispered: "Your injury is caused by [curse]
Influence?"
"As expected of the ancient gods, he saw my problem at a glance. My injury came from the shadow of the hell girl who was the incarnation of [curse]. So, you don't have to waste your efforts, I can get a moment of relaxation,
Already, wait...how is it possible..."
The old man was trying to persuade Milo not to waste his power in vain, but as the aura flourished, the old man felt that the incomplete heart and lungs in his body began to regenerate, and at the same time, the power lost due to the disappearance of the heart and lungs gradually returned.
The old man's body began to grow rapidly, and he transformed from a short appearance into a handsome young man. Under his eyes, a unique pattern similar to a divine pattern appeared, and the back of his head, which was like a melon pulp, was also covered with long golden, white and black hair.
cover.
Huge demonic power rose from the young man's body, bringing with it whirlwinds that swept everywhere. The demons in the building were inspired to release their own demonic power, turning into a dark cloud covering the surroundings. A night ritual of hundreds of ghosts covering the entire city was completed in an instant.
.
The powerful power attracted the attention of the surrounding practitioners and gods.
"general!"
"Commander in chief!"
"The Shodaime!"
"grandfather!"
Voices sounded from inside the building one after another, and hundreds of ghosts emerged one by one. Under the leadership of a sly ghost who looked quite similar to a young and old man, they stood in mid-air and stood on the building. Their auras were solid,
His eyes are sharp and he can attack at any time.
When they saw the old man's new appearance, they all showed expressions of surprise and joy, and all the ghosts fell down one after another and started dancing.
"Haha, although I don't really want to interrupt your high spirits, should Slippery Ghost tell me what's going on with the shadow robe that Hell Girl left behind?" Milo's voice once again caught Hyakki's gaze, and there was an obvious look in his eyes.
of vigilance.
But before anyone could take action, the older sly ghost scolded all the ghosts around him: "You must not lose etiquette in front of distinguished guests."
Then, he said respectfully to Milo: "Thank you for your help."
In response to the Slippery Ghost's gratitude, Milo maintained the attitude of an ancient god in the eyes of outsiders. After looking back, he said: "This is your reward for [禊] and [Fear]. Now I just want to know what happened to the shadow robe that the hell girl left behind."
thing?"
The Slippery Ghost looked around and asked the Hundred Ghosts to retreat.
"general!"
"Commander in chief!"
"The Shodaime!"
Naturally, Baigui didn't want to. Milo raised his hand and said: "There is no need to hide it in front of me. Even if there is a problem, I can suppress it. By the way, is this half-demon next to you your heir?"
As he spoke, Milo's eyes fell on the young slippery ghost.
"Yes, this is my grandson Lu Sheng."
"Lu Sheng? Come forward."
Milo raised his hand, and the slippery ghost named Rikuo took two steps forward involuntarily. The hundred ghosts were furious and wanted to take action, but were stopped by their general.
"He is a hybrid of human and demon, but he is able to uphold good intentions. He is a good boy. I helped your grandfather recover from his injuries, but I also damaged your character and lost most of the [fear] character that I originally condensed. What compensation do you want?
"
Lu Sheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He was about to say that Milo saved his grandfather and he should be grateful. However, the old man next to him who thought he knew the images of some ancient gods actually knew that these gods often said they were asking, but in fact they were just notifications.
Going against their ideas can easily lead to punishment. Before Sun Tzu spoke, he was the first to arrive: "Lu Sheng, why don't you thank the god?"
Although Lu Sheng didn't know why his grandfather spoke, he was vaguely aware of the problem. He was silent for a moment and said: "I don't lack anything. If I have to make up for it, I hope everyone can be safe."
"What a simple yet troublesome wish."
Milo chuckled lightly, looked at Lu Sheng and said: "For ordinary people, the easiest way to realize this wish is to seek asylum, but you probably don't want to be protected by them. Anyway, I will give you a little
Please help."
As he spoke, Milo tapped Lu Sheng's eyebrows with his fingers, and his spiritual energy gathered between Milo's.
The information corresponding to the main personality of the demons and demons gathered in Fuso and other places in the past emerged in the spiritual world, turned into blessings and blessings on Lu Sheng, and gave him a status close to that of a god.
The hundred ghosts who were a little agitated because of the old man's obstruction all showed horrified expressions. They felt that their power was flowing towards Lu Sheng uncontrollably.
"It's really an amazing method."
The old man's eyes widened slightly as he also noticed the changes, and then he expressed his gratitude to Milo and told everything he knew.
"As far as I know, Hell Girl is one of the few hell ghosts and gods still alive. She goes back and forth between the human world and hell. By collecting people's resentment, she makes the soul fall into hell and appeases the increasingly angry Yin Zhenami. But
The resentment of the angry Great Mother God day after day also made Hell Girl miserable. She had to bury her resentment in the shadow again and again, and then cut off the shadow. Through this method of self-torture, she could relieve the Great Mother's hatred.
God’s wrath and resentment.”
Hearing his grandfather's words, Lu Sheng's eyes widened. In his understanding, shadows can also be regarded as the residence of souls and a way for people to express their spirituality. Ghosts and gods do not have shadows.
Shadow, cut off the shadow, the pain must be high, and according to my grandfather's wishes, the other party has done this more than once.
"Because of cutting off her own shadow time and time again, Hell Girl's power has also weakened. Part of the concept of [curse] has also flowed into the human world and transformed into various strange and weird existences. I wonder if they can be called monsters. And.
Those severed shadows were somehow acquired by a demon fox who died tragically. She swallowed the shadows and turned them into her own tail. She gained the ability to reincarnate, and thought she was Abe Qingming's mother, and tried to rebirth Abe Qingming.
.”
"Wait a minute, grandpa, so Hagoromo Fox is not Abe Qingming's mother, and the one she wants to give birth to is not Abe Qingming?"
Rikuo Sheng hurriedly interrupted his grandfather's words. He did not expect that the Hagoromo Kitsune he was about to face was not Abe Seimei's mother. Unexpectedly, the slippery ghost looked at Miroku first, and when he saw no reaction, he shook his head at his grandson.
Said: "It is true that the Hagoromo Fox is not Abe Seimei's mother, but the monster she wants to give birth to is probably Abe Seimei?"
As he spoke, Slippery Ghost also pointed to his chest and said: "Back then, when I prevented that monster from coming into the world, he didn't even say a word, but he just read my name and made me unable to move, and then I was beaten by Yuyi.
The tail of the fox took away the internal organs, and it is getting old day by day. And my body cannot recover, because the tail of the fox in feathers is the shadow of the hell girl, which is derived from the power of the [curse]."
The slippery ghost raised the cup in his hand again and said, "If I hadn't relied on the wine in the cup these years, I would have been corroded to death."
"Hell Girl, is Abe Qingming?"
Milo narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Lu Sheng again, and said: "It seems that I am destroying your [fear] character and interfering with your destiny."
"What's the meaning?"
Lu Sheng frowned, but the old man next to him vaguely guessed the reason and said with a smile: "If Zunshen wants to take action against Yuyihu, just do it. The relationship between our family and Yuyihu can be regarded as a fight to the death. If Zunshen can do it,
For sending him to hell, we would like to thank you."
Riku Sheng, who understood what the old man meant, also nodded in agreement, and even said that if Milo killed the Hagoromo Fox, his friends would definitely worship Milo. Such words made Milo couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Enshrine, that kind of thing
I don’t need it. I have already got what I need, so I won’t stay for long. I hope that when we meet again next time, you have successfully condensed the character of the Lord of Demons and Demons.”
After saying that, Milo looked at the sky, felt it carefully, and whispered: "There is no Era Tree around the location? No, it should have been uprooted consciously."
Based on the contact, Milo sensed the location of the Hagoromo Fox. After not noticing a suitable location for establishment, he tried to interfere with the roots from the trunk to build a new foothold, but it also had no effect.
This is obviously someone who consciously blocked his arrival, so that the causes and conditions could not change to create suitable opportunities.
This point also allowed Milo to see more of the laws governing the operation of heaven and earth in this area.
"Forget it, since we can't come directly, let's take a detour!"
As he finished speaking, a spiritual light appeared under Milo's feet, lifting his figure into the air and flying towards the city where the Hagoromo Fox was.
The moment it took off, there was also a ray of divine light that ordinary people could not see rising up. From a distance, it looked like a big sun rising from the horizon, with thousands of rays of sunlight coating the sky with a bright and warm layer.
It is golden red, and at the same time, this light reflects with the bright moon hanging high in the sky. In the eyes of ghosts and practitioners, it forms a wonderful scene of the sun and moon in the sky.
At the same time, wherever its light passes, all [miasmas] are suppressed, negative forces begin to dissipate, and concepts such as [wishes], [blessings], [straightness], etc. are improved.
Demons that were partially contaminated with [Miasma], or were born based on [Miasma], turned into ashes under the light, while Lu Sheng was illuminated by the light and returned to the appearance of an ordinary person. He looked at his body,
Feeling the demonic power still rolling in his body and the purer aura, he couldn't help but look at his grandfather beside him and the hundred ghosts whose aura became purer, and said in surprise: "Grandpa, who is this one?"
The old man did not answer immediately. He picked up the cigarette and took a puff, slowly blew out the smoke ring, shrugged and said: "I thought I guessed his identity, but now I don't know. But compared to who he is
, I think we should have a banquet now! Let’s celebrate the happy event we encountered today.”
Hearing this, the hundreds of ghosts nearby cheered and supported the grandfather and grandson as they walked into the building.
