Traveling through time 10,000 years late, I was forced to become a powerful person

After experiencing this, Shen Yuan was convinced that the gods were indeed untrustworthy, as the sacred tree said, and that the Yingzhou pantheon had already encountered huge problems.

As the main god who ruled the pantheon after Amaterasu went into seclusion, Izanagi did not welcome the arrival of Shen Yuan, the reinforcement.

Especially after Noro Mai called Shen Yuan the father of the gods, Izanagi and some gods became extremely hostile to Shen Yuan.

After Shen Yuan showed his strength and Niutou threatened him, Izanagi showed a little submissiveness, but still had ill intentions.

He abandoned the Inari God, Yuzhongjin, and deliberately killed the Inari God under the coercion of Niutou to arouse the hostility of other gods towards Shen Yuan and his party.

As the chosen god, Inari God was recognized by Shen Yuan as one of the small beasts he met when he was planting rice on Takamagahara ten thousand years ago.

At that time, Inari God was not intelligent, but he was able to grow up with Amaterasu, who was nurtured by the sacred tree.

Now that he has achieved the position of a great god, it must be inseparable from Amaterasu's care. He should be one of the core gods of Amaterasu.

Such a great god who is close to Amaterasu was taken out as a discarded child, which is enough to prove that Izanagi is deliberately clearing out the members of Amaterasu among the gods of Takamagahara.

A god who temporarily replaces the position of the Lord of the God System, clearing out the great god of the faction of the Lord of the God System, this is enough to explain many problems.

In fact, even Shen Yuan himself is a little curious, where does Izanagi get the courage to clear out the members of Amaterasu.

Izanagi seems to be the second main god in the Yingzhou God System after Amaterasu, with a status under one god and above all gods, and is also the husband of Izanami, another main god of the God System.

The combination of the two, plus many powerful offspring, almost occupies most of the Yingzhou God System. It seems not surprising that they want to fight for power and eliminate dissidents.

However, in fact, the so-called second main god is insignificant in front of Amaterasu.

The Yingzhou pantheon has a more extreme structure than most pantheons in the Xuanhuang Realm. Amaterasu, who has reached the realm of heavenly immortals, is enough to suppress the entire Yingzhou pantheon.

Even if Izanagi has a way to break through the Hedao and reach the immortal realm, the gap between him and the heavenly immortal is still a world of difference. In this case, fighting for power and profit has become a complete joke.

More importantly, Amaterasu, the master of Shinto in the Yingzhou pantheon, was not conferred by the Heavenly Court, but was conferred by Shen Yuan with the origin of Shinto.

The gods of the Yingzhou pantheon were conferred by Amaterasu.

Freed from the shackles of the Heavenly Court, the gods of the Yingzhou pantheon do not have the strict restrictions on their positions as other pantheons, and they must reach the level of God before they can enter the realm of refining emptiness.

All the great powers of these gods conferred by Amaterasu belong to Amaterasu. As long as Amaterasu has a thought, she can take back the authority of the gods.

Gods who have lost their positions have only one way to die.

Under such circumstances, Izanagi still dared to do these little tricks, and he must have his own support.

The surrounding scenery quickly retreated, but in an instant, it was close to Heian-kyo, but Shen Yuan's mind was still on the Takama-ga-hara above his head.

In fact, with Shen Yuan's current strength, he is already enough to sweep the entire Yingzhou God System.

With the help of the six gods of Luofeng, even if Izanagi can use the power of the Yingzhou God System, Shen Yuan can still easily suppress it, but he did not choose to do so.

In essence, the so-called Yingzhou gods except Amaterasu are just a group of small characters, and even if they jump higher, they can hardly affect the overall situation.

Eliminating them all too early will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the ghosts and gods of Huangquan, allowing Shen Yuan to appear in the foreground in advance.

The underworld has an advantage in strength. The Ten Kings of Hell have suffered a big loss at the hands of Shen Yuan once, and they will definitely be more cautious against Shen Yuan.

At present, Shen Yuan still needs the gods of Yingzhou to attract the attention of the underworld, so that Shen Yuan can deal with the layout of the underworld later.

Of course, there is another thing that Shen Yuan is also very interested in.

He really wants to know what Izanagi relies on?

As his thoughts flow, Shen Yuan has already stepped into Heian-kyō.

With the revival of heaven and earth and the invasion of Huangquan, Heian-kyō, originally an international metropolis, has also been given a new meaning.

The combination of high-rise buildings and pavilions can be seen everywhere on the streets. Modern technology and classical transcendence are integrated in an extremely violent way, presenting a slightly weird Heian-kyō in front of us.

Shen Yuan and his companions did not hide their figures, and landing in Heian-kyō did not attract much attention. Even Niutou and others with a bull's head and a human body were ignored by most ordinary people.

On the streets of Heian-kyō, demons of various shapes can be seen everywhere, holding banknotes and arguing with ordinary people.

Among them, a large part of the demons do not even have basic human forms. Niutou with a bull's head and a human body is already very normal in this case.

On the contrary, Ye Lu Mai, who was dressed in a shrine maiden's costume, attracted a lot of attention. Some people took the initiative to salute Ye Lu Mai while walking.

Bai Zhao stood beside Shen Yuan, looked at the Niutou ghosts with fear, and then respectfully said to Shen Yuan:

"Daxia is vast and has many demons, so the biggest trouble for the human race is the demons that are constantly born during the recovery of heaven and earth.

However, Yingzhou is completely different from Daxia. There are more powerful Huangquan ghosts as a threat.

In Huangquan, ghosts hate all living creatures, and they don't distinguish between demons and humans. Wherever they go, they will inevitably turn into ghosts."

"In the face of this kind of foreign enemy, the two races of humans and demons who originally hated each other began to cooperate. Especially in Heian Jingzhong, which is the front line of fighting against ghosts in the underworld, there are a large number of demons living in it.

Once Heianjing is attacked, these monsters will also join the war to defend Heianjing. "

Shen Yuan couldn't help but show a bit of surprise in his eyes. In Daxia, humans and monsters were at odds with each other, but when they arrived in Yingzhou, they cooperated sincerely in the face of crisis. Shen Yuan had to lament that things are unpredictable.

However, there was one thing about Shen Yuan that made him quite curious.

"Yingzhou Shinto is prosperous, how did the demon tribe develop under the eyes of the gods of Gaotianyuan?"

Bai Zhao was stunned for a moment. He had never left the Luliang area, and his knowledge of Yingzhou was limited to news from the market. Shen Yuan's question had touched upon his blind spot of knowledge.

On the other hand, Noro Mai, who was on the side, had recovered from the previous shock. She quickly responded after hearing Shen Yuan's words:

"There are gods above the human race, and there are three ancient and powerful demon kings behind the demon race.

These three great demon kings were born even earlier than the gods of Takamagahara, and were powerful men of the same era as Amaterasu Omikami.

Thousands of years have passed down to this day, and it is said that the strength of the three great demon kings is no less than that of the original Lord God Gao Tian, ​​and they are the pillars of the fight against the ghosts of the underworld. "

Noro Mai's words immediately reminded Shen Yuan of the three great demon kings of the Returning Void Realm who were born in response to the trend of demons.

When fighting against the Eye of Dusk ten thousand years ago, the three demon kings caused a lot of trouble to Shen Yuan.

At the end of that battle, Shen Yuan successfully killed the earth spider and suppressed the Eye of Dusk, but did not notice the traces of the three demon kings.

Now that I think about it, the three big demon kings have survived until now.

"interesting!"

A strange color flashed in Shen Yuan's eyes.

After suppressing the Eyes of Dusk, Amaterasu has taken control of the small world of Yingzhou, and it is completely easy to liquidate the three demon kings.

There is no doubt that the three demon kings can survive to this day because of Amaterasu's instructions. Maybe these three ancient demon kings have already taken refuge in Amaterasu.

But listening to Noro Mai's words, the Yingzhou Divine Department seems to know nothing about this.

"The three demon kings may be the back-up men Amaterasu left behind before she went into seclusion."

With some curiosity in his heart, Shen Yuan also wanted to meet these three "old friends" whom he had not seen for thousands of years.

"However, now is not the time."

Strolling down the street, Shen Yuan's eyes wandered over the complicated buildings in Heian Kyoto.

In Heian Kyo, the most numerous buildings are undoubtedly shrines.

Along the way, Shen Yuan has seen no fewer than ten shrines, large and small. In front of each shrine, a large number of believers line up to make offerings, which is enough to show the prosperity of Yingzhou's Shinto system.

There are many gods enshrined in these shrines, but almost without exception, Izanagi and Izanami, the two main gods of the Yingzhou pantheon, are present.

Even in some shrines, Amaterasu is not worshiped, but Izanagi and Izanami are worshiped at the top.

Seeing this scene, Noro Mai couldn't help but look angry, and said in a low voice:

"How could this be?"

“We, the Ise Shrine shrine maidens, were ordered by the Amaterasu Omiko oracle to go to various parts of Yingzhou to build Amaterasu Grand Shrine to protect the safety of the place, but we neglected the safety of Heian Kyo.

How dare Izanagi and Izanami blatantly steal faith in Heian Capital! "

Noro Mai gritted her teeth, wishing she could rush to Takamagahara to question Izanagi and other gods.

However, Shen Yuan didn't care about this. Izanagi had the guts to attack the core god of Amaterasu, so what does a mere incense belief mean?

Compared with the statue of the god enshrined above, Shen Yuan was more concerned about another thing.

His eyes fell on the ordinary people entering and leaving the shrine. Yingzhou's industrial system seemed to have come to a standstill due to the constant attacks of underworld ghosts. The clothes of most ordinary people looked very old.

Some people even had their clothes patched and their faces were sallow, but they were still willing to stand at the entrance of the shrine all afternoon just to worship the gods.

Such a scene is really abnormal for the capital city of a country.

Shen Yuan has seen Luliang City and other cities around Pianjing.

Those cities were also plagued by underworld ghosts, but there was no scene like this.

Looking up at the sky, Shen Yuan could clearly see in his eyes that the declining human destiny was not even one-third of the divine destiny.

Although Yingzhou is dominated by Shinto, the real gods are still too rare after all. The number of ordinary people in the human race is hundreds of thousands of times more than the gods.

Under such a ratio, the decline of human luck is too abnormal.

Shen Yuan frowned slightly and asked Noro Mai beside him:

"Has Heian Jing declined to the point where it can no longer maintain normal productivity?"

Noro Mai looked around and suddenly fell into silence.

After a while, Noro Mai spoke in a low voice:

"Although Heian Jing was heavily attacked by the underworld ghosts, except for the disaster five years ago, the rest of the battles did not really affect Heian Jing.

Based on the extraordinary system, both industry and food can actually maintain security. "

"Then why are there so many ordinary people in the streets with old clothes and sallow faces?"

Noro Mai took a deep breath, and there was a hint of vibrato in her voice unconsciously.

"This situation is actually due to an oracle issued by the Lord God Izanagi after he took control of Takamagahara.

Lord Izanagi believes that human beings are too weak, and even those monks who have reached the peak of their cultivation are nothing more than cannon fodder on the real battlefield of Huangquan.

It is the gods who really lead the war against ghosts in the underworld, so everything must serve the gods. "

“The gods don’t need brand new clothes or full food, all they need is the continuous incense faith of humans.

Some gods have concluded after research that in dangerous and difficult environments, humans are unable to meet their own needs for food, clothing, housing and transportation. Under the pressure of massive material shortages and external crises, humans will give birth to more pious and purer beliefs.

These beliefs do not have too many distracting thoughts, only the instinctive desire for survival. To the gods, the incense faith provided by such a devout believer is far more than a hundred times more than in the period of peace and prosperity. "

“So the Lord God Izanagi issued an oracle and secretly abolished most of the industrial system, making Yingzhou, which had already entered industrialization, once again find itself in a dilemma where it was difficult to have enough food and clothing.

Most human beings cannot find jobs, and the Yingzhou government can only provide them with barely enough food to survive, claiming that all this is because of ghosts in the underworld.

As long as the gods defeat the underworld ghosts, their living standards can return to those ten years ago. "

Hearing this, even Shen Yuan fell into silence for a while.

Looking around at the many believers lining up in front of the shrine, the skinny faces were filled with numbness. Only when they looked at the shrine did they feel a little uncontrollable excitement.

In their opinion, it seems that as long as they pray to the gods more every day and come to the shrine to worship more often, they will have a chance to no longer endure hunger.

Unfortunately, they did not realize that the suffering they experienced came from those high gods.

"If the underworld ghost is really defeated, will the gods of Gao Tianyuan let their lives get back on track?"

Shen Yuan asked Noro Mai.

Noro Mai hesitated.

"should.maybe"

"The moment you hesitate, you are already aware of the Gods' choice."

There was a touch of pity in Shen Yuan's eyes.

"Most gods don't care about the lives of mortals. All they need is the faith provided by mortals.

After they have tried these pure beliefs, will they be willing for mortals to return to their original lives and provide them with those complicated beliefs? "

"I don't know."

"The gods will keep ghosts in captivity and disguise everything as if they defeat the ghosts of the underworld, and the existence of the ghosts of the underworld will continue to appear to scare ordinary people.

As time goes by, the glory of the industrial age will become history, mankind will lose its proud heritage, and civilization will continue to die out as it solidifies.

What was left in the end was just a group of puppets who provided faith to the gods. "

There was a look of unwillingness in Noro Mai's eyes, and she spoke urgently:

"What can we do? Right now, everything is just a wishful thinking!"

“Even if the underworld ghosts are defeated, there is an insurmountable chasm between gods and humans. Even the lowest god needs thousands of practitioners to fight to the death to have a chance to fall.

Not to mention those great gods and main gods. Those are peaks that humans can never climb. There is no chance for humans to resist the gods! "

Shen Yuan smiled and said in a calm voice:

"I am human."

Noro Mai was stunned. She stared at Shen Yuan in front of her, unable to believe that such a powerful Shen Yuan could be a human being.

In the thousands of years of history of Yingzhou, only gods and monsters have crossed the realm of refining gods, and they are the rulers of this world.

According to ancient legends, there are practitioners in the Daxia territory who can rival the gods, but after all, these are just legends spread among the upper classes.

But now, a living example was before her eyes.

Noro Mai opened her mouth not knowing how to speak, but she heard Shen Yuan's voice again.

"So, I will teach you to control everything the human way."
