Volume 2 A Dream in Huangzhou Chapter 31 The Power of Incense

The land god must have been a good man before, but not now.

Therefore, it was impossible for him to really stop and look at Qin Zi and Mu Mu obediently like this.

However, the truth is that during the time when the two of them comforted each other, he just kept looking at it with an extremely gloomy face.

Soon, even Li Zheng and the others, who were already lining up to die, were a little puzzled.

They raised their heads and saw the extremely gloomy expression of the land god, but there was no madness, and he felt as if he had seen a deep sense of jealousy in the eyes of the land god.

They also turned their heads and saw young men and girls hugging each other not far away.

On the one hand, they were surprised by the girl who suddenly appeared, after all, they were sure that there was no such girl even in the Land Temple just now, and they were even more surprised that the land god was actually just watching and indifferent.

You must know that with the character he just showed, the person who dared to despise him so much would have taken action a long time ago, but he didn't.

Is it jealousy of the girl? Li Zheng thought in his heart.

It seems that this is the only possibility, that is, the girl who suddenly appeared, has the strength to make the land god dare not be careless.

It's just a little strange that it seems that among the two people, Qin Zi is the absolute leader.

This is not the kind of relationship between men and women, where boys dominate, but a more bizarre feeling, the girl seems to be the whole person relying on Qin Zi, as if she must rely on the support of other things in order to grow.

If so, why was this girl able to make the land god so jealous that she didn't even make any moves?

After all, according to their worldview, the status in interpersonal communication is generally directly linked to strength, since Qin Zi can dominate, then it means that Qin Zi's strength seems to be stronger, so what is the land god afraid of?

But seeing that the young man and girl not far away had finally separated, the young man touched the girl's head, pulled her behind him, and then looked at this side with a smile.

Only this time, there was an undisguised malice in his smile, a feeling that was comparable even to that of the enchanted land god.

"I've heard people say that Shinto cultivation needs to be piled up slowly over time, and it can't be done quickly in any case."

"At that time, I was still very puzzled, after all, in my impression, the cultivation of Shinto powerhouses should rely entirely on incense, so as long as there is enough incense, the speed of cultivation should be very fast in theory."

"After I knew it, I realized that I was wrong, incense is not something that can be absorbed infinitely."

Hearing Qin Zi's self-talk, the land god didn't say a word, but his face was already gloomy and about to come out of the water.

But Li Zheng didn't understand much, what did he want to say, is there anything special about incense?

Of course, they also knew that incense could not be absorbed too much at one time, although with their incense, it had never reached the level of "too much", but they did need to refine it after absorbing incense every time.

Of course, the speed of refining this kind of refining is definitely much faster than the speed of obtaining incense, although they don't know the specific situation, but they still know, that is, even their Shangguan Huang Gong, the speed of refining incense is much faster than the acquisition of incense.

Moreover, from Huang Gong's side, he also learned that the speed of refining incense is naturally much faster than the speed of acquisition.

Not only that, Huang Gong's speed of refining incense is actually not much worse than them, they used to just think that this was because everyone's talent was almost poor, but now that they think about it, it should be that the speed of incense refining itself will not have much difference between everyone, and it is basically relatively slow.

So now, according to Qin Zi's statement, it seems that even those righteous gods who have a very high god rank and a fast acquisition speed of incense, as long as they reach a certain level, there will be no difference in the speed of cultivating incense, which also leads to the fact that basically the Shinto powerhouses are slowly grinded out for hundreds of years, and there is rarely anything that can be achieved overnight.

However, is it any use for Qin Zi to say these things at this time?

"So, if we want to strengthen our Shinto strength, we must first understand what the foundation of Shinto itself means, which is the so-called 'power of incense'? If you don't understand anything, you won't make any progress! ”

Hearing this, Li Zheng and the other Yin officials were thoughtful, they usually came into contact with the power of incense every day, and even forgot how the original bit of incense came from.

But after Qin Zi's awakening, they began to realize something, but now it was not enough for them to deduce the full picture of the so-called "power of incense", Qin Zi naturally did not expect them to pass through his own words, and suddenly enlightened, fortunately he did not continue to explain with them, but looked at the land god who was still floating in the air with a gloomy face with a smile, and said very gently:

"So, do you know what incense is? Now that you're able to do this with the power of incense, you should understand what that means, right? ”

"The so-called incense is essentially the will of man!"

The god of the land naturally understood what it was, otherwise how could he have done it now?

However, what made Li Zheng and the others a little strange was that the voice of this land god was a little weak, and it didn't look like the extremely arrogant peerless demon just now.

"You're right, or rather, the so-called power of incense is the will of man, the aggregate of the collective will!" Qin Zi also smiled happily when he heard his answer, it was obvious that he also knew these things, and even knew more than him.

So, he smiled and continued:

"If something like the will is still too abstract, then I have other ways to explain it, the so-called power of incense, which is mixed with the spirituality of mortal will."

"For mortals living in this world, the dissipation of spirituality is an irreversible process, and they are losing spirituality every moment."

"When a mortal enters the temple to pray, there must be, as long as you think sincerely, you will inevitably leave a lot of spirituality. That is the so-called power of incense, or the original form of the power of incense. ”

"But there is also a problem, that is, among these spirits, there are many mortal wills, and these things cannot be absorbed directly, otherwise, their own spirituality will be affected."

Speaking of this, they all more or less understood, it was precisely because these spirits were mixed with the will of many mortals, so when the Shinto monks cultivated the power of refining incense, they had to refine it little by little, and these were always discharged.

Of course, it must be inexhaustible, after all, these Shinto monks are only monks in the end, and the vast majority of monks in this world have worse control of spirituality than Qin Zi, who is still in the foundation building period, and it is definitely impossible for them to directly refine the will residue in the incense.

Therefore, even if you are extremely cautious and insist on refining for a long time, in the long run, you will still be slowly affected by the will of mortals when you cultivate.

Fortunately, the will of these mortals is very weak, and the impact on them as monks is not particularly serious.

But even if it is not so serious, it will still have an impact, at least the spirit bodies of the Shinto monks are definitely not their original body.

If you don't refine these incense well, I'm afraid it won't be long before the spirit will be completely replaced, and at that time, even if it looks like there is no difference on the outside, the person himself is still equivalent to death, but from his body is born a composite of the will of all beings that carries his memories and most of his will.

This is naturally not a good thing for selfish monks, so there is a saying that incense is poisonous.

Don't think that the will of mortals is very weak and underestimate this ability of assimilation, after all, there are really many fools who do that in this world, of course, these people have now become the aggregate of the wills of unconscious beings without exception.

After all, although the will of mortals is weak, what countless mortals leave behind when they pray is a strong will, and the power of sentient beings formed by the convergence of these wills is a terrifying poison that can be avoided by all monks.

This kind of thing, if the ordinary monk's true spirit is slightly touched, it will inevitably be replaced.

As Qin Zi said gracefully, the face of the land god flying in mid-air became even more gloomy.

Even he still didn't know a little about these things, and according to Qin Zi, he realized the problem.

Qin Zi looked at him with a smile, but his eyes were full of coldness, as if he was a demon who was keen to play his prey to death.

"You should know what level you are, do you really think that you have the ability to pollute this yin? No kidding. ”

Qin Zi sneered, and at the same time stretched out his right hand, making a posture of false grip, facing the direction that was the part of the Yin Division that was dyed with that pure black.

As soon as Qin Zi was just concentrating, the pure black aura began to shake violently, and then fell off from the Yin Si and quickly flew near Qin Zi, like a big snake surrounding him, which made people very uncomfortable to look at.

"You should know about such a method, right? After all, I'm much more clever at manipulating it than the little trick you used, but the essence hasn't changed, so you should recognize what I've done, right? ”

The face of the earth god became more and more gloomy, and even his body trembled slightly, and cold sweat flowed from his forehead, as if it was enough to maintain such a state.

"After knowing such a truth, to be honest, I still feel a little ironic, mortals pin their wishes on the gods, but the gods avoid their will, afraid of snakes and scorpions, only after removing their will, dare to enjoy their offerings, it's really ......" Qin Zi shook his head mockingly, he couldn't even think of any words to describe this ridiculous situation.

"But if that's all it takes, it's okay to get it, after all, they still have a lot of spirituality flowing to the gods, and the gods take the incense, and they have to do something, the most ridiculous thing is that their will is not received by the gods, but will be used by some demons, right, Lord Land?"

The body of the land god trembled continuously, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and in the next moment, his body gradually shrank, and he actually changed from the original three-zhang strong man to the original form, and even looked at Qin Zi's side with a look of fear, and said in a trembling voice:

"Evil, demon, you are the real demon!"

When Qin Zi heard this, he laughed.

"By demons in your mouth, do you mean those who are only more knowledgeable than you, or are they more determined than you?"

Qin Zi's eyes looked at him like looking at a dog, full of disdain.

"You idiot, I don't know from which person you learned some third-rate methods, so that you can gather the will of sentient beings that you didn't use in the past and use them for your use, but you can only gather the malice of living beings, if it's just that, you idiot, you don't have a big brain, but you don't have a lot of guts, you actually absorbed that kind of thing directly, now it's good, you don't even know who you are, right?"
