Chapter 184: The Remains of the Golden Body

The "Emperor Shitian" controlled by Qi Xuansu was always several steps behind Qingwei Zhenren, so when Qingwei Zhenren spoke, "Emperor Shitian" had just walked to Qingwei Zhenren's side and finally saw the full picture of this empty golden body.

In addition to the dull luster, the golden body did not show any signs of decay and collapse, but it was not complete.

The two are not contradictory. After a piece of fat meat is cut off, it is still fat meat and will not turn into rotten meat.

Looking closely, this golden body has obvious signs of gnawing, and it can even be said to be seriously damaged. It just barely maintains an outline, and the inside is empty, with nothing left.

If the complete golden body is 100%, then this golden body remains at most 30%. It's like a house, there are not many tiles left on the roof, only broken walls are left on the walls, and the various furniture and decorations inside are not even a little bit, and there are leaks on all sides, but the outline of the house can still be recognized.

The same is true for the remains of the golden body. From a distance, the Yin Qi blocks it, making it hazy and unclear. It looks like a huge figure lying on the ground, but when you get closer, you will find that it has already been broken into pieces.

???????????????Qi Xuansu's mind moved, and "Emperor Shitian" used the magical power of "Earth Qi Backtracking".

Yin Qi also has a similar effect.

The Yin Qi surged and gathered into a picture.

The huge remains were still lying on the ground, incomplete, but much more complete than when Qi Xuansu and Qingwei Zhenren saw it. There were three figures around it, each with a backlight behind their heads.

The person in the middle was vaguely a woman, graceful and elegant, and the two on the left and right were men. The man on the left was feminine and melancholy, and the man on the right was rough and heroic. Three pairs of eyes were staring at the remains.

Soon, the rough man was the first to pounce on it and began to bite the remains, devouring the fragments of the golden body like a beast. Then came the feminine man, like a bloodthirsty night demon sucking blood.

The woman was much more gentle and graceful. She also put some of the fragments into her sleeves. I don't know if she would keep them for later or bring them to others. However, no matter how graceful the action was, it could not cover up the horror, bloodiness and cruelty of its nature.

The seemingly rough man was actually rough but delicate. After seeing the woman's action, he also followed suit and hid some of the golden body fragments in his arms.

But in this way, the two of them hid more golden body fragments, and they ate less. Instead, the gloomy man ate the most golden body fragments.

After Qi Xuansu saw this scene through the perspective of "Emperor Shitian", he immediately recognized the three figures.

Three noble sons!

The woman is Himiko, the rough man is Susanoo, and the feminine man is Yue Yejian.

The three noble sons who overthrew the rule of Izanagi, they once came to Huangquan Country and gnawed the remains.

The reason why Qingwei Zhenren was able to enter Huangquan Country was because he had the protection of the "Chuan Guo Xi". The Xuanhuang breath exhaled by Beilong corresponded to the power of the human world and was not afraid of Yin Qi. "Indra" is a dead man, and has no consciousness at all. He also has the strength of an immortal, so the influence of Yin Qi on him is minimized.

How did Sanguizi enter the Yellow Springs?

Qi Xuansu soon noticed the backlight behind Sanguizi's head, which was like a sun wheel.

Unlike the sun wheel of Izanagi, this sun wheel glows with colorful light and has obvious Buddhist characteristics. That is the sun wheel of Vairocana.

Vairocana, as one of the three bodies of Buddha, corresponds to the Three Pure Ones of Taoism, and naturally has the strength to resist Yin Qi. Sanguizi was able to enter the Yellow Springs under the protection of Vairocana.

From this point of view, Sanguizi's combination of gods and Buddhas is not as simple as overthrowing Izanagi, but a package deal that includes all aspects.

Qi Xuansu also noticed that Himiko, as the head of the three nobles, did not forget to put it in his sleeves while eating. Could this be the secret of Tamamonomae and Yamata no Orochi's resurrection from the dead?

From the timeline, it does match. Whether it was Susanoo killing the Yamata no Orochi or Tsuchimikado Yasuhita leading the people to kill Tamamon-no-Mae, it was during the period of integration of gods and Buddhas, that is, after the three noble sons overthrew Izanagi.

This reminded Qi Xuansu of a legend.

After Izanagi divided the three noble sons, Himiko and Tsukiyomi went to govern the country according to Izanagi's instructions, but Susanoo didn't go. Until his beard grew to eight fists long and dragged to his chest, he was still crying there, as if he had cried the green mountains and dried up the ocean.

The sound of this evil god crying??????????????? was like a summer fly buzzing everywhere, and all kinds of disasters followed. Izanagi asked Susanoo: "Why don't you go to govern your country, but cry here?" Susanoo replied: "I want to go to the underworld where my deceased mother lived, so I cry." Izanagi was furious and exiled Susanoo for this.

Combined with the current situation, perhaps Susanoo had realized the secret of the Underworld at that time, so he wanted to enter the Underworld. The reason why Izanagi was furious was that he wanted to monopolize this secret and would not allow others to get involved, even his own children.

The other two of the three noble sons must have known this secret, but it is hard to say whether it was before or after this. If it was before this, then it is very likely that the three noble sons had already noticed it but were not completely sure, so they sent Susanoo, who seemed to be reckless and would not cause too much vigilance from Izanagi, to test it. Izanagi's reaction confirmed their guess and strengthened their determination to overthrow Izanagi.

As for Susanoo and Himiko's falling out, it was after Himiko came to power. Susanoo was exiled again and came to Izumo, where he killed the Yamata no Orochi that was entrenched there, and presented the "Sky Cloud Cloud Sword" he obtained to Himiko, and the siblings reconciled.

This is a one-to-one correspondence.

Himiko and Susanoo left Huangquan with some of the golden body fragments and fed them to Tamamonomae and Yamata no Orochi respectively, bringing them back to life. On the contrary, Tsukiyomi-no-san did not carry the golden body fragments, but he ate the most golden body fragments, and possessed the ability to partially manipulate the Yin Qi, becoming the nominal master of Huangquan Country.

The only thing that has not been clearly explained is why Shuten-doji can come back to life.

Strictly speaking, Genji is also a member of the royal family, a descendant of Himiko-no-san, and upholds Himiko-no-san's will. It is not ruled out that Genji wanted to turn Shuten-doji into a servant of Tianmen after killing him, but something went wrong in the middle. It may be that the golden body fragments fed were insufficient, or it may be that something else was missing. In short, Shuten-doji can indeed come back to life, but he cannot be driven by Tianmen, but has become a madman, just like the son of Zhulong who was resurrected by the ancient witch cult. Tianmen had to seal Shuten-doji's head, leaving a headless corpse in Oeyama, which looked a bit like the ancient god dancing with a halberd.

"Emperor Shitian" continued to go back to a more ancient era.

The figure of Sanguizi gradually disappeared.

The gnawed golden body became more complete, and even intact.

At this moment, another figure appeared, taller than Sanguizi, and almost the same size as the remains on the ground.

It was Izanagi-no-san.

Then Izanagi-no-san was seen half-kneeling beside the remains. At first glance, it seemed that Izanagi-no-san was crying on the remains of Izanami-no-san, mourning his wife who died of dystocia. But if you look closely, you will find that Izanagi-no-san was actually gnawing at the inside of the golden body. Although the golden body has no internal organs, it still has almost crystallized divine power inside, which was all devoured by Izanagi-no-san.

Is this the secret of Izanagi-no-san?

At this moment, Qi Xuansu almost doubted the real cause of Izanagi-no-san's death. In fact, there was no fire god at all. It was Izanagi-no-san who killed Izanami-no-san, so Izanagi-no-san had to declare to the public that he killed the fire god because of grief and anger. Because the God of Fire does not exist, or the death of Izanami-san has nothing to do with the God of Fire. Only when the God of Fire dies and does not exist can others not delve into the claim that Izanami-san died because he gave birth to the God of Fire. After all, both parties are dead, and only Izanagi-san is left as a witness, so naturally, whatever he says is fine.

Of course, this is just Qi Xuansu's guess, not the truth. Perhaps no one knows what happened except the two parties.

As Izanagi-san continued to gnaw on Izanami-san's remains, the flames on his body began to change, no longer shining, but stained with a layer of shadow.

It turns out that Izanagi-san's evil fire was not obtained after being suppressed under Furong Mountain and eroded by Yin Qi, but had already possessed it earlier.

Qingwei Zhenren also saw this scene, with a strange look on his face, and slowly said: "There is a disciple of Buddhism named Jinchan, who was reincarnated from the Buddha Kingdom as a human being, which means a cicada shedding its shell, so people regard the cicada shedding its shell as a symbol of longevity and rebirth. Therefore, whoever can eat the flesh and blood of Jinchan can obtain longevity, or be resurrected from the dead."

Qi Xuansu thought about it for a while and roughly understood it.

Yizangranzun is similar to Jinchan, the disciple of Buddha. She has the magical power of shedding her shell and transforming, and the body she left behind is like the legendary immortal medicine, which has the magical effect of immortality and resurrection.

As for the magical power of cicada shedding, it is actually the magic of celestial beings, which is specifically manifested in the "fake body for disaster" of exiled immortals and the "cicada shedding technique" of scattered people, and even the method of corpse-reincarnation immortals is similar to the method of golden cicada shedding its shell.

Furthermore, celestial beings are the only beings that can return to the human world after ascending. Nanhua Patriarch compared celestial beings to butterflies, which can freely travel between the worlds, which is not false.

However, the immortals did not return to the human world in their true bodies, which was something that no one could do. Instead, they used the method of cutting out their incarnations to deceive the heavens and the seas. This corresponds to the three corpse incarnations of the exiled immortals.

Qi Xuansu did not know much about this, but he only knew that there was such a thing. For him, ascending to heaven was out of reach, let alone descending to the human world after ascending to heaven. He could only ask: "Earth Master? Heaven Master?"

The voice of the Heaven Master sounded: "It turned out to be a second ascension. It's really a big deal. Even if this ancient immortal is not as good as the Great Taoist Ancestor and the Emperor of Heaven, he is not inferior to the Nanhua Patriarch. He is an extremely remarkable person."
