Chapter 144: Humanity and Shinto

In fact, after this sacrificial ceremony, those ordinary people will not die.

It's just that since then, I've lost all my spirit, and I'm no different from the walking dead.

Worse than dying.

All intelligent beings have souls, not to mention the most intelligent human beings, and souls are the foundation.

The high priest didn't want to continue arguing with Qin Zhao anymore, the two had different ideas, and there would be no results if they continued.

Not to mention that now they can be regarded as mortal enemies, even if they convince each other, there is no point.

"Do you think that in this strange sea of your knowledge, you will eat me?"

A strange smile appeared on the old priest's face, and his eyes stared at the young man standing on the purple platform below.

At this time, Qin Zhao, who manifested in the sea of knowledge, was not the same as the clothes of the outside world.

Wearing a flat crown, the white jade beads are twelve, which is the emperor's crown; Wearing a five-clawed golden dragon robe, the background color is black, and there are fire patterns as decoration.

At first glance, it is extraordinary.

His expression was calm at this time, his eyes were hidden behind the crown, and he couldn't see his expression of joy and anger.

But it made the high priest a little uneasy.

The other party seemed to be a little too calm, and he didn't care about his backhand.

She forced herself to calm down and began to work the secret method.

The great power of faith hidden in the apse of the temple was not ownerless, nor did it belong to her.

But after so many years, since he can steal and collect the beliefs of the gods, there is no problem in trying to attract them.

It's just that in the past, I didn't dare to merge it into my body.

But now that she has Qin Zhao's body that can accommodate luck, and her own divine soul has entered it, she no longer has any scruples, and begins to attract that special power with all her might.

Qin Zhao's expression moved when he saw this, and the action that he was originally going to stop the other party from desperately resisting also stopped.

The high priest was even more surprised when he saw his actions, and his sense of foreboding intensified, but he did not stop moving.

At this time, in Qin Zhao's huge Zhihai Center, the two people facing each other had their own thoughts, but they did not act rashly for the time being.

In everyone's spiritual platform, there is such a sea of knowledge.

It's just that different people have different levels of development and different backgrounds.

The stronger the physical body, the deeper the knowledge of the sea, but it does not mean that with this huge sea of knowledge, you can achieve a powerful divine soul, but you need to further practice.

The so-called "soul refining", refining is this vast mist.

All the changes that are happening here now are unknown to the outside world.

Only a few people, Yan Qingjun and Zi, secretly looked at Qin Zhao and the high priest who had their eyes closed, and understood that they were engaged in a silent battle at this time.

The High Priestess's spirit floated high in the sky, and a huge purple array shrouded her beyond, preventing her from escaping.

Looking down, the periphery is full of boundless white mist, and it is impossible to guess the size of its scope.

In the center of this mist, there is a purple platform suspended, in the shape of an upside-down cone. It's like a huge island, and it's like a continent floating in the sky.

On the land, there are white jade buildings lined up, forming a special formation.

It looks spectacular and mysterious, like a temple of gods.

In the meantime, countless Terran phantoms were interspersed, dressed differently.

Some people have a crown and a wide sleeve; Some people are clothed with hairpins and bare chests; There are also people who have a red crown and brocade robe, and the instrument is extraordinary......

There are even columns of army armor and iron helmets around, holding Changge, waiting for the battle.

There were still a large number of light spots floating in the sky, which were the projections of the Reverse Fate Gu.

There are more than ten figures that are different, like living people.

Although the people were silent at this time, and most of the figures were no longer active, it only made the scene more solemn.

In comparison, although the temple on the Fengyang Continent is huge and beyond human power, it is not surprising.

The high priest looked at Qin Zhao's well-groomed demeanor on the land below, and his heart was a little complicated.

I thought that the other party was an outsider, and he was powerless to resist, so he let himself handle it.

But I didn't expect that it was myself who was trapped.

She had to admit that she was indeed careless.

But in reality, there was no better way for the high priest.

Even if she knew in advance that Qin Zhao was prepared, she still had to give it a go, and it would really not be good for her to continue to delay.

Now that Qin Zhao is still not familiar with this world, she can occupy a greater home advantage.

Once it doesn't work out this time, as the other party gradually adapts, there will be no chance in the future.

Her time was running out.

After several reincarnations, the divine soul has long been close to its limit, and even without the shackles of the physical body, it is impossible for the divine soul state to exist in the world forever.

"I am fortunate to have gained, but I have lost my life." Thinking of this, she settled down and no longer suffered from gains and losses.

For a while, the divine soul became more condensed.

Qin Zhao was also a little surprised when he saw this.

He thought to himself that if he reached this situation, his plan was seen through by the enemy, and he fell into the trap, he might not be able to do better.

"It is worthy of being a 'child of destiny' in the world, and it is really extraordinary."

Qin Zhao couldn't help but sigh secretly.

By now, he had almost understood the special nature of the high priest and the shrine maiden.

I also understood why the high luck on my side did not possess them.

Her own spirit is extremely powerful, which is one thing, and on the other hand, I am afraid that it is also favored by God.

Although Ming Shu's special location has not yet been discovered, the talent of the high priest is still very obvious.

In a low-level plane like this realm, there is no such thing as "world consciousness".

But there are always some people with extraordinary talents who are unconsciously treated as sons by the world. In other words, as a hope for the transcendent evolution of the world.

It's like a wealthy family, there are several children in the family, and one of them is obviously more talented than ordinary people, and it is inevitable that he will receive special treatment from his parents.

It is even regarded as the hope of the entire family to break through the shackles of class in the future.

And from the perspective of the whole world, the same is true, this is the "Spirit Show of Zhong Tiandi".

In fact, even in the vicissitudes of the world, there are similar examples.

In the past, the ancestor of the Shantai clan who discovered the existence of the upper realm, as well as the previous Xia Emperor Qin Chong, and Han Guiren, can all be called "sons of destiny".

Just when Qin Zhao secretly sighed and changed his mind in his heart, the preparation of the high priest was finally completed.

At the same time, the square in front of the outside temple protruded from the sky.

Except for the 9,000 people who had lost consciousness, everyone else saw a divine light fly out of the apse.

Then, in the exclamations of everyone, it fell into Qin Zhao's body.

Ming Shu, who was still presiding over this sacrificial ceremony, was slightly startled when she saw this, and she felt the breath of the rat god in it.

But then he calmed down again, and thought of the "person chosen by the rat god" that the high priest said, and guessed that it was probably related to today's ritual.

First he glanced at the high priest, and when he saw that her eyes were closed as if he were unconscious, he did not care about the matter.

And Yan Qingjun, who was pretending to be a saint, glanced at Zi, and at the same time secretly said in his heart: "It's here." ”

Zi no longer hesitated, quietly left this place, and began to collect the food crops of this world according to Qin Zhao's previous arrangement, preparing to return to the Canglan Realm with them.

And Yan Qingjun secretly transmitted the message to the soldiers of the Yulin Army, preparing to wait for Qin Zhao to recover, and then return to the Canglan Realm collectively.

But before that, we must hold those faith spirits in heaven and bring them back with us when the time comes.

And in the sea of Qin Zhao's knowledge, there was also a change at the same time.

As a divine light descended from the sky, the high priest showed joy on his face and spoke again, "Do you know what this is?" ”

There was some arrogance in his tone.

This is the accumulation of his countless years, and it represents her entire pursuit.

"The power of faith." Qin Zhao replied indifferently.

The moment the divine light flew out, he immediately sensed it, and the previously silent luck gold list was finally ready to move.

However, if you want to collect it, you still need to defeat the high priest in front of you.

The Fortune Gold List can purify and transform the power of faith into luck, and it will not pollute the soul of the leader, but it cannot be snatched directly.

If it could be snatched, Qin Zhao was still cautious and worried that the so-called "Rat God" still existed in the world.

But he didn't want the high priest to be surprised when he heard his answer, but to smile.

"Of course, I know that you can recognize the power of faith, but this is not the power of pure faith!"

After saying that, I saw her raise her head slightly, but in the divine light, transparent silk threads suddenly branched out, stretching out to her divine soul.

"Huh?" Seeing this scene, Qin Zhao was also a little surprised.

"For countless years, I have tried my best to integrate the power of faith, and of course I will not do anything useless."

Seeing that his expression finally changed, the high priest looked a little proud.

"I see...... You are willing to divide your soul into this faith. ”

The smile on the high priest's face was slightly stiff, he didn't expect to be seen this.

"It's a big mistake to do that......"

Qin Zhao shook his head slightly, although the two sides were enemies, he still felt a little pity.

"What do you mean?!" The High Priest frowned and asked.

Even if she can put life and death out of the way, this is the way she pursues in this life, and now it is denied, but she can't ignore it indifferently.

Qin Zhao didn't care about the other party's tone and identity, and explained in a deep voice.

In fact, this is not only to explain the truth to the other party, but also to clarify their own path.

This crossing has indeed helped him improve a lot, especially in the matter of cultivation, and he has gained a lot.

"The spirit and the flesh are not compatible, this is your first mistake. If you only cultivate your nature and do not cultivate your life, it will be difficult for the Yin Spirit of Ten Thousand Tribulations to enter the Holy Spirit. Is the flesh free to be discarded? But considering that you originally had a short lifespan, you can't think about it, but it's understandable. ”

Qin Zhao said leisurely.

The high priest did not speak, and continued to stare at him.

"Divide the soul, but ask for death to know. But when you practice, what you ask for is the word 'perfection'. As a result, when it comes to you, not only does you abandon your body, but you also give up your soul. Do you think that the soul that has been separated can be taken back at will if you want to take it back in the future? ”

As soon as these words came out, the high priest's eyes widened slightly, and his heart felt cold.

Although he hadn't tried it yet, he instinctively felt that he was right.

When the Divine Soul has cultivated to this extent, it is natural that there will be some premonitions. I hadn't paid attention to it before, but now when I heard this, I finally realized that something was wrong.

At the same time, the power of faith in the sky seemed to hesitate a little, and became resistant to the call of the high priest.

"I'm not done yet."

Qin Zhao looked at her, and at the same time, he glanced slightly towards the power of faith, and spoke again.

"It is even more unwise to rashly contaminate luck. What is 'faith'? Only when all the people have something to ask for and believe will faith appear. Contaminated with this power, you are already firmly bound. If the soul is intact and the body is still alive, it's okay to say, but unfortunately if you don't talk about the body, even the soul is incomplete, how can you ensure that you are not polluted by erosion? ”

"You ......" The high priest's spirit body suspended in the air trembled slightly, and his expression was in a trance.

Qin Zhao's words were tantamount to fundamentally denying her path, and this kind of blow was even more than the death of the enemy after the battle between the two sides.

"Ugh." Qin Zhao shook his head slightly, "You are also amazingly talented, you can come up with some secret methods to avoid death and even get involved in the belief of gods." But why haven't you ever thought about why the 'Rat God' would abandon this realm and show no nostalgia for these believers? ”

After he had finished saying this, the high priest finally changed his color.

No, it's not just because of his words, it's because the mass of faith in the sky has begun to unequivocally refuse to merge into her soul.

"Man has humanity, and God has God. Obviously, as the spirit of all things, why bother to sacrifice the essence and try to become a god......" Looking at this scene, Qin Zhao shook his head lightly.

"You know what?!" The High Priest's face was excited, and his eyes were even a little crazy.

Anyone who has pursued a dream for hundreds of years is easily denied, or even fundamentally disapproved, I am afraid that they will not be able to remain calm.

Not to mention that she is a genius in the sky.

"The gods have endless longevity, the power to open the world, if they have this power, what is the human being?"

"Is that so?" Qin Zhao's face became stern, he looked at the high priest, and said in a deep voice: "In all fairness, if you put your mind on your own people and the cultivation method of the human race after so many years, you really can't study a better path?" Do you have to pursue Shinto with lofty ambitions? ”

"......" the high priest was stunned when he heard this.

From countless years ago, even before she became a high priest, everything she thought, heard, saw and thought was the power of the gods, how could she ever put the meager power of human beings in her eyes?

Worshipping the gods, worshipping the gods, and relying on the power of the gods to solve all difficulties has long become a habit unconsciously.

Even after the departure of the Rat God, the way she thought of was to seek transcendence by replacing the position of the Rat God.

It turns out that this is already a kind of inertia.

"...... human practice?" She repeated softly.

"Yes, human practice. Since you know that I am an outsider, I might as well tell you. I have seen people who enter the Tao with literature, and the air is clear, and they can live for hundreds of years without leaving the body.

"Cultivators can also enter the Tao with martial arts, refine and refine qi, and live for a thousand years when they are consummated.

"Or condense the military formation, use manpower to resist the catastrophe of heaven and earth, and crush the rain of fire from the sky.

"Since the human race is the spirit of all things, how can it ever send the so-called gods?"
