I’ll Quit Being a God Chapter 184: The grass collapsed, 8 gods disappeared, and the music changed
Japanese Shinto was once systematically dominated by the three great masters.
Each family has been recognized by one of the "three major artifacts" symbolizing Japanese orthodoxy. They worship it on weekdays and can use the power of the artifact to defeat the enemy at critical moments.
The three major families also took the name of the artifact.
Enshrines the Kusanagi sword, the most lethal Kusanagi clan.
A clan that worships the Eight-foot Mirror and possesses the power of sealing and harmony.
A clan that worships the eight-foot magatama and possesses extraordinary control.
The three major families are connected by the same spirit. In the most ignorant era of human history, they have protected mankind countless times and fought off various known and unknown threats.
However, nothing in this world is eternal, let alone short-lived species like humans.
In the course of thousands of years of historical evolution, the three major families have encountered crises many times, some from the outside and some from within.
About two thousand years ago, the Kusanagi clan fell apart and existed in name only. The Kusanagi Sword was recovered by the real owner "Nihon Taken". This was also the first time that a transcendent person recorded in Japanese history appeared.
A thousand years ago, the two big families, Bachi and Bachiqiong, suffered heavy losses.
Although it is not as exaggerated as the Kusanagi clan, it still has an extremely far-reaching impact.
The clan lost the influence of being the number one Shinto and the absolute ruler, and began to reform.
It no longer sticks to just one sacred object, but is inclusive, and has successively included Budu Yuhun, one of the "Three Divine Swords", "Chaoying Pearl, Chaogan Pearl" and other Shinto sacred objects.
The family name was also changed as a result, no longer using a single artifact as the surname, but "Kagura", a surname that is more suitable for worshiping multiple gods.
Bachiqiong is even worse than Bachi. The inheritance is scattered, the people are withering, and they have faded out of Shinto ever since.
The abandonment of the family name is also more straightforward and decisive than Bachi - it sounds like an extremely domineering surname.
To this day, Chu has inherited his ancestral land for who knows how many years, as well as an ancestral house that has been destroyed and rebuilt many times.
Right in front of Guan Junyan.
Compared with the size of the Kagura family's huge building complex, the Yagami family is indeed not impressive enough.
Although it has a large house area and floor space, it is poorly maintained and does not look grand at all, just old and deserted.
As long as you have been here once, you will understand why Iori Setsuna likes to run out so much and like to live with others.
Living in a place like this is really lonely.
The first and only time he visited the house, Guan Junyan once asked why he didn't move out?
Like me, find a nice apartment, or like the Takamachi family, buy a small private courtyard. It is suitable for both master and apprentice, or for friends to visit and stay overnight.
At that time, Yagami Setsuna did not elaborate, only saying that one cannot leave people here.
The reason is obviously the secret of the Yagami family. Unless Yagami Setsuna takes the initiative to say it, Guan Junyan will not ask.
To this day, Yagami Setsuna took the initiative to explain.
"The eight-foot magatama, the sacred treasure inherited by the Yagami family, is here. We need to use it to control the influence of the 'other world'."
"Alien" is a collective term.
The "other world" in the afterlife, the "nether world" most closely connected with the present world, the "alien world" controlled by the eight-foot Qiong Magatama is called the "Devil World".
It is not a place where demons and devils live in the mythical sense, but a more special world.
Some people say that it is "black" that is deeper than monsters, others say that it is a collection of "human evil" and the manifestation of negative energy, and some say that it is the real "another world".
It is also the culprit that the Yagami and Kagura families have become what they are today.
It suddenly appeared thousands of years ago and caused great destruction.
In the end, the Kagura family held back the expansion of the "demon" at the cost of sacrificing half of its members. The Yagami family gathered the whole family to use blood as a guide and sacrificed their bodies, thus controlling the expansion of the "demon world".
From then on, the Eight-foot Qiong Magatama became an important hub for controlling the "Devil World" and was guarded by the descendants of the Yagami family.
Iori Hayate dares to cause trouble everywhere in Japan, and he is not afraid of being picked on by the old monsters. It is also related to this responsibility. Believe it or not, I quit and everyone broke up.
Of course, Yagami Hayate is just saying it, and it is impossible to really ignore it.
Even if she doesn't care about what Japan will become, she can't care less about the life and death of another group that is closely related to her, the "Demon Slayer Ninja".
The demon-fighting ninja, as the name suggests, is a ninja who is specially used to fight "demon".
After the thousand-year demonic disaster, the official history compilation committee tried various methods to deal with the "demons" that were still infiltrating, and finally created a very special branch of ninja - "Devil-fighting Ninja".
Using ninja as the basis, the ultimate demon-fighting specialization is carried out to achieve the purpose of destroying the "demon" - the eight-foot Qiong Magatama intelligently controls the influence of the "demon", not to eliminate it, nor to cut it off.
For thousands of years, they have faithfully performed their duties and thus established a deep friendship with the Yagami family.
In the continuous exchanges, the various techniques of demon-fighting ninja gradually affected the Yagami family, and eventually contributed to the Yagami family's transformation into ninjas.
Iori Hayate trained as a ninja in the "Devil-Slaying Ninja" when he was a girl. After he became successful in training, he would often go to the front line and fight side by side with the "Demon-Slaying Ninja".
Everyone knows that Yagami Hayate is a true genius, but few people know how much effort she has put into it and how many **** battles she has experienced.
This is a true friendship between life and death, and one of the few beings whom Setsuna Yagami respects from the bottom of his heart.
The closer she got to the guest room, the more serious Iori Setsuna's expression became, so serious that she was not like the carefree and upright Kagura Mio she usually was, but more like Kagura Mio who was meticulous in everything she did.
Knock the door three times.
"Master, Aunt Ashaji, I'm back."
"Hey, Xiao Mo?. Looking for Shuyuan www.zhaoｓshuyuan.com"
"So fast?"
Two voices sounded inside the door, one was familiar and the other was unfamiliar, both were female voices.
For some reason, the two people's voices seemed a little panicked, and there seemed to be the sound of wooden products moving.
Fortunately, not long after, the door opened.
Iori Hayate, who was dressed in home clothes, stuck his head out and scolded his disciple.
"You refused to come back no matter how much I asked you. Today you only went out for two hours. What kind of wind is blowing."
"I have something to ask for, please don't blame Miss Setsuna." Guan Junyan took the initiative to take responsibility.
"You can tell just by looking at it. I haven't seen her care so much about other people." Yagami Hayate muttered in a low voice.
"Master!" Red.
While giving a "really useless" look, he said: "This is not the place to talk, go to the living room - Ashaji."
"Coming."
With a voice that was both heroic and gentle, another woman walked out of the room.
The same loose-fitting home clothes, but the hotness is even higher.
The curve of the big S is almost abnormally exaggerated, giving people an extremely strong visual impact.
Everyone regardless of gender or age was shocked.
In comparison, the extremely rare dark blue hair and eyes as well as the sassy and slightly flushed face are not worth mentioning.
Seeing this scene, I slapped my forehead: "Forgot your lethality, Setsuna, let me know in advance next time you bring someone back."
Murderous aura swept through him, pulling everyone back with a stronger impact, and then coughed:
"Let me introduce you. This is my friend and the only recognized opponent on the road of ninja. The ace among the ninjas in the inner world, Igawa Ashaji."
