After leaving the world of all NPCs

Ye Zuochen replied coldly.

What is Okuninushi?

Where did this Mao God come from?

Okuninushi laughed heartily: "Indeed, for a Tang person like you, the gods of this tiny country are indeed not worth remembering!"

He raised the golden hammer in his hand.

The air behind Okuninushi suddenly froze, as if the whole world was holding its breath.

Click!

Time seemed to be torn open by an invisible hand, and a huge blue-black shadow slowly rose from the void.

First, three angry vertical pupils pierced the void, emitting a terrifying light.

Next came the hideous five-skull crown, which emitted a crisp sound of bones colliding in the distorted air.

The huge body rises from the ground, like a tall building rising slowly.

As the giant shadow appeared, the light around it began to distort and collapse, as if it was swallowed by an invisible black hole.

The sunlight dimmed the moment it touched the giant shadow, as if all its vitality had been drained away.

The shadow spread at a speed visible to the naked eye. The trees, rocks, and even the air lost their color in the shadow. The whole world seemed to be immersed in ink.

With every inch the giant shadow rose, the ground sank a bit, emitting a low groan as it could not bear the heavy burden.

The area within a hundred meters was plunged into absolute darkness, with only the three eyes burning in the void, like the never-extinguished fire of hell.

The Dharma image was dark blue in color, with three eyes wide open, mane standing on end, a five-skull crown on its head, and a bare upper body. It was not as strong and powerful as Luo Hao's Vajra Warrior, but instead had a big belly.

Only the upper body rises from the ground.

"Mahakala, you must know this name, right?"

Okuninushi stood on one of the hands of the Mahakala image and asked questions loudly.

Ye Zuochen nodded slightly and said, "It's that local legend Monkey Brother was talking about again. It seems that the priests of this country also know that their myths are just for their own entertainment."

073 What national spirit? It will be interrupted!

Okuninushi.

He is the main god who ruled over Awahara Nakatsu Province in the Kojiki.

He had an extraordinary experience. After being persecuted by his eighty brothers in his main family, he fled to the territory of Susanoo, won the love of Princess Suseri, passed a series of tests of Susanoo, and finally defeated his brothers and established a country.

He is regarded as the founding god of "Ashihara Nakatsu Province" and unified the country through force and wisdom, symbolizing the historical memory of the succession of ancient tribes.

The myth of his abdication of power, that is, the transfer of ruling power to Tensun Nyounyouchi-son, is a metaphor for the Yamato court's integration of the Izumo forces.

The Japanese mythology in "Kojiki" and "Nihonshoki" can be roughly divided into three major systems: Takama-ga-hara mythology, Izumo mythology, and Hyuga mythology.

Among them, Takama-ga-hara mythology and Hyuga mythology belong to the same system.

The first is the Takama-ga-hara myth, followed by the myth of the advent of the gods, then the myth of the Hyuga, and finally the era of the human emperor.

The Izumo mythology branched out from this system and is opposed to the Takama-ga-hara mythology-Hyuga mythology system.

The Izumo mythology system is that the saboteur Susanoo was expelled from Takama-ga-hara, after which Susanoo killed the eight-headed, eight-tailed giant snake, built a palace in Suga, and married Kushinada-hime.

The sixth-generation grandson, Okuninushi Nobu, fought with his brothers (the eighty gods) and asked Susanoo for help, and then married Susanoo's daughter.

Okuninushi-no-mikoto and Shonahikona-no-mikoto jointly founded the country.

Young Mingyan was destined to live in the Kingdom of Changshi.

Okuninushi was oppressed by the Takama-ga-hara Shogun and was forced to give up his kingdom. In exchange, he built Izumo Taisha Shrine to worship Izumo Okami.

Some historians believe that the ancient Izumo region (Shimane Prefecture) was an advanced area in Japan.

The Izumo people were an indigenous people who unified Japan.

Later, the Tenjin (Wazu) and the Izumo Kingdom fought and forced the Izumo Kingdom to give up its ruling power.

In addition, there are also some theories that believe that Izumo Province is the Sushen people who migrated from Northeast China through Korea. The so-called Sushen was the general term used by the Sui and Tang dynasties to refer to the ethnic groups living in the Northeast during the pre-Qin period.

"But this guy in front of me who calls himself 'Okuninushi' seems to be the same as Perseus in the original novel. He chose a local name in a special place." Ye Zuochen thought to himself.

When the God of Disobedience descends, he possesses [Godhood].

The essence of [Godhood] is actually an "identity card".

It is a world that has boundaries but cannot be touched. It seems to contain everything, and it also seems to have nothing. It has both the greatness of divine power and the infinite possibilities of human thinking. The power of man and God are intertwined in this world, showing an unprecedented closeness and intimacy. The boundary between reality and illusion is difficult to touch and distinguish.

Gods are immortal, and even if they lose their life and body, their existence will continue.

First, the [Godhead] itself, which cannot be considered a soul or a spirit, will go to the [realm of life and immortality] and then reach the [realm of immortality].

The realm of the undead—in other words, myth.

After death, gods lose their bodies and souls and can only continue to exist in myths.

Maybe later on, due to some opportunity, he will become the [God of Disobedience] again.

At that time, the godhead will be liberated from the [Undead Realm] and become a great spiritual body - a god.

Then he became flesh on earth and completed his manifestation.

The so-called godhead can be said to be a collection of myths about that god.

If we use a game as an analogy, [divinity] is the ID card, and mythology is the setting on the ID card.

Just as humans have multiple titles, gods can also choose their own names from the [Godhead], and this name will become the anchor of "self".

There are usually two situations when the God of Disobedience chooses a name.

One is to choose according to where you land.

One is to choose the most popular name.

Mercal was named "Mekal" because he was born in Sardinia, but in fact his divinity is more like Baal.

The same goes for Perseus who appears in the original work. He landed in Naples and happened to see the spirit of the earth, which aroused his dragon-slaying instinct, so he chose the name "Perseus".

If it were somewhere else, the name "Mithra" would probably be chosen.

The situation of Okuninushi in front of us is similar. He landed in Tokyo, Japan, and saw a claustrophobic space full of centipedes, so he came up with the idea of ​​"founding a country" and chose "Okuninushi" as his name.

If he were in another place or under other circumstances, he might have chosen "Mahakala" as his name.

Japanese Buddhism interprets Buddhist gods as the "local" (essence) of the native Japanese gods (Kunizu God) through the theory of "local descendant".

The wrathful guardian Mahakala is regarded as the incarnation of Buddha and Bodhisattva, while Okuninushi-no-Mikoto, as the "koku-created god" of Izumo mythology, is given the status of a guardian or Bodhisattva.

The combination of Mahakala (the guardian deity of Esoteric Buddhism) and Okuninushi-no-Mikoto (the main deity of Shinto) in Esoteric Buddhism is based on this theoretical framework.

In other words, the Okuninushi in front of us is equal to Mahakala!

"Well, since you are a Buddha, I won't be polite." Ye Zuochen raised the [Sea-Suppressing Divine Iron] in his hand which turned into a diamond stick.

This weapon from Sun Wukong also seems to be full of fighting spirit.

"Haha, the king of millions of Rakshasas and Yakshas! This is the kind of momentum we need. To build a country, we must kill those who get in the way!" Okuninushi also raised the golden hammer in his hand and smashed it down!

boom!

The space above seemed to be neatly flattened, as if an invisible hammer pressed down heavily.

With Ye Zuochen as the center, the surrounding ground was instantly pressed down three inches!

"Humph!"

Ye Zuochen didn't even look at it, and instantly activated his own cursed power. The God Slayer's anti-fate power swept out, resisting all interference from the outside world.

Time interference, space interference, concept interference, cause and effect interference, fate interference...

All were resisted by this anti-fate force.

boom!

The invisible hammer surface seemed to shatter in an instant and disappear into thin air.

At the same time, Ye Zuochen took a step forward and accelerated suddenly, violating the law of inertia and increasing his speed to the third cosmic speed, and flew towards Okuninushi who was standing on the hand of Mahakala's Dharma image.

"Haha, that's a great trick. But Mahakala is the transformed form of Mahesvara. He and his countless followers of ghosts and gods often wander the forest at night, feeding on the flesh and blood of living people. He is very powerful and brave, and he always wins in battle. Therefore, Mahakala is the god of war."

Before Okuninushi finished speaking, the four arms of Mahakala's image suddenly became blurred.

In an instant, tens of thousands of fist shadows condensed in the void, and each punch was wrapped in dark evil energy.

These fist shadows overlapped layer upon layer, forming a huge black wall in the air that covered the sky and the sun, completely blocking out even the sunlight.

Before the fist wind arrived, the ground began to crack and the gravel floated upward against gravity.

fast!

This black wall is incredibly fast!

Time seemed to be distorted at this moment.

[Godspeed], this is undoubtedly godspeed, but it is different from [Godspeed].

The form of Mahakala devours time.

At this moment, it is not just four arms that are swinging fists, but tens of millions of arms are swinging fists at this moment!

Weierwei in the [NPC Space] was thoughtful upon seeing this scene. "Interesting, it seems he's exploiting the relativity of time, using imaginary time outside of real time to erode real time."

"Please speak human language." Toyokawa Shoko frowned slightly.

Ying said directly, "This is the dark side of time. If 'time' actually exists, then this god is devouring a portion of it. Shaking his fist within this 'shadow', the intuitive feeling is 'simultaneity'."

Meng Meng was puzzled and said, "That means there is no order of priority. These fists were thrown at the same time."

In other words, there is no point in using the gaps between punches to achieve a breakthrough.

So--

The Vajra Rod in Ye Zuochen's hand suddenly burst into golden light, and the thirteen ancient seal characters on the rod, "The Ruyi Golden Cudgel weighs one hundred three thousand five hundred pounds," moved like living things.

"——Pick up a Tianhe tempered stick——"

Ye Zuochen swung his stick at the fist wall, and the golden light turned into a crescent-shaped arc.

The golden light collided with the black wall without any fuss.

boom! ! !

It was as if a hole was torn in the space.

The black fist wall began to crumble from the center, and countless cracks spread like a spider web.

The broken fist turned into black rain and poured down. The shock wave spread in a circular shape, turning all the grass and trees into dust wherever it passed.

Countless alien plants suddenly came alive and attacked the image of Mahakala from all directions!

Ye Zuochen took advantage of the momentum and rushed forward, the golden tail flame left by the diamond stick drew a scorching trajectory in the air.

call out!

Okuninushi stood in the palm of Mahakala's hand, his black haori fluttering in the wind. He spread his arms wide, and from his throat flowed the ancient divine words. The sound was not human, but rather the echo of thousands of people chanting simultaneously:

"Yaksha devours the moon, Rakshasas swallows the sun, the three thousand worlds are all reduced to darkness. We ghosts and gods devour all the light. Build our land, build our divine palace."

As each syllable fell, the aura of Mahakala's Dharma image continued to grow, blue-black flames ignited around his body, and the muscles on his six arms bulged like mountains.

boom! boom! boom! boom!

Four giant fists came simultaneously from different dimensions, carrying the power to devour time.

There is no order.

No gap.

Facing such a fist net, Ye Zuochen was like a golden dragon, fearlessly charging head-on into the overwhelming black fist shadows.

boom!

The diamond rod and the giant fist collided, and the shock wave exploded in a circular shape, shattering all the clouds within a radius of 100 meters.

Ye Zuochen used the force to turn over, and the stick drew a perfect golden arc in the air, hitting the second attacking fist heavily.

clang--!
