Chapter 216 Law?

"Nine-tailed fox?—Our family has heard such a legend."

Zi Yakumo looked up at the night sky that was gloomy due to light pollution and couldn't see the stars, and then clapped her hands lightly.

"In a sense, a very scary big monster, or the real face is actually a god with nine tails, not "weird".Because every time she cultivates a tail, her strength will become nine times that of the original, and in the end she will naturally be the golden-haired and white-faced Nine-tailed Princess God. "

"How powerful will it be? Have you only heard of legends?" Mu Xiu asked curiously, looking at the two round scarlet stones unconsciously playing with in the hands of the monster girl.

"Hey, half body, you have to understand that there are always exceptions to everything, and monsters and demon gods are not the same thing." Yakumo Zi turned around, stretched out her folding fan and poked the boy's head. The tone of a good teacher said.

"And even if it's a fox monster with nine tails, I haven't seen it for a long time. What I just told you is the real nine-tailed fox. It is an ancient concept of monsters that are deified as natural phenomena. It is equivalent to a part of the ancient gods, so it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the top monster..."

Having said that, she suddenly paused, then covered half of her face with a fan, her eyes drifted aside.

Mu Xiu tilted his head in doubt, but saw Yakumo Zi coughing, and changed the subject directly: "Next, tell me how many killing stones there are. I thought there was only one piece, but I didn't expect you to There is also one piece... so there should be others, right?"

"..."

This way of changing the subject is really tasteless.

"Yes, yes, besides the two we have here, there are another seven..." The boy sighed, "But even if you want to change the subject, Zi, at least explain the difference, that thing Children are not the concept of monsters, nor should they be natural phenomena, right?"

Although I have never seen a fox with nine tails, but after all, the prototype is still a fox, a kind of animal.However, the definition of natural phenomena can be concepts such as tornadoes, tsunamis and earthquakes.

Is there any connection between these two?After thinking about it carefully for a while, Mu Xiu was sure that he had never seen it before, and there was no record in history about such a miraculous natural phenomenon as the "nine-tailed fox"...

Damn!Isn't this a matter of course? Would anyone be stupid enough to record "fox raising its head", "violent fox falling from the sky", "fox whirlwind" and so on?
The last one is a bit of a possibility, but it reminded Mu Xiu of a brain-dead movie called "Sharknado". When he thought of a bunch of foxes with nine tails dancing around in the storm, He felt a bit of a stomach ache at the stupid scene like being thrown into a front-loading washing machine.

Sure enough, it’s better not to, if such a natural phenomenon, even if he is really an ancient god, Mu Xiu feels that he can’t feel a little bit of awe——

Can this kind of silly dog ​​be called an ancient god?I can do it too!

Yakumo Zi hesitated for a moment: "Nine-tailed fox, as the name suggests, is a fox with nine tails, because the more tails a demon fox has, the higher its demon power is, and the more it grows, the smarter it is... But as long as it is a demon fox, it can keep growing. It will inevitably reach this level in the next year, so it cannot be said to be so rare."

As a monster in the realm of only herself in the whole family, the girl is indeed qualified to criticize the nine-tailed demon fox that has only been encountered once in thousands of years, "it is not rare".

"But, have you ever wondered how the concept of the original nine-tailed fox was born?"

Things must have a source, and tracing back to the source must be able to be traced back to an initial "cause".In theory, Mu Xiu can know everything, but it costs money to buy information from the "Lord God" ball of light, so if it is not necessary, he does not intend to ask the big ball of light for help.

So he could only shake his head honestly.

"The earliest legend comes from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, but that one is older, and I don't know... But what I'm talking about now, the world on my side can be explained by the Yata mirror located in the area of ​​Izumo."

The monster girl said seriously, "It is said that the concept comes from the trail of God Amaterasu, the soul split from that god, and the pseudo-apotheosis of the sun."

"Yataka Mirror?" Mu Xiu raised his eyebrows, wondering why this thing was involved.

"That is a mirror stone that reflects the sun's rays under the river. It is a real artifact. It is impossible for ordinary people to get close to it. The phenomenon of "sunlight reflected by the water" can be regarded as the sun's reflection on the ground. Doppelgänger...By the way, Yata Kage's alias is Yuzao Zhenshi. Isn't the name of Yuzao you mentioned enough to associate the whole thing? "

A monster is different from a demon god, and a nine-tailed fox is also different from a nine-tailed fox.

He was originally a fox, but he cultivated nine tails, but he was still a monster.But a natural phenomenon has been deified, at most it only borrows the form of a nine-tailed fox, but its true face is not a fox.

The name Tamamomae is almost the same as Daji, and has become synonymous with Nine-Tailed Fox. It is impossible to say that she is not the most advanced kind, but in the long history before her appearance, the alias of Yata mirror was It is already Yuzao Zhenshi.

If this is not related, Mu Xiu must believe... a ball!

But seeing his pensive appearance, Yakumo Zi curled her lips, and didn't tell him that there is basically no possibility of Nine-Tails Hime God appearing in the world over there.Because the mirror stone, which is an ancient artifact, was always on the side of Izumo, and the power of the gathered sun was too majestic, which attracted a flower demon to settle nearby.

The field of sunflowers was nearby, and it took away that huge power as a nutrient, and the nearby monsters dared not speak out.

Even if the Nine-Tailed Hime God with golden hair and white face was really born, he would probably be brutally killed on the spot by that flower demon's straightforward magic cannon and physical skills, and become the shortest-lived god.

……

……

Mu Xiu is no longer interested in hunting evil spirits, and now even Type A evil spirits are just cannon fodder to him, unless they are special ones that can trigger side plots.

For example, Santuhe and Hong are an example. If sister Huang Quan degenerates into an evil spirit, she will probably be able to receive such treatment, that is, her own strength is hardly worth mentioning. A casual slap to the point of death, but enough influence.

Therefore more valuable.

There is a faint smell of ozone in the air, and there is a strange smell of something burnt, like gelatinous or biological, but it is difficult to distinguish, because the surrounding area has been plunged into darkness Among them, there is no light at all.

Moreover, there are no human voices in the nearby streets, houses, or shops. It seems that people are in a peaceful sleep, completely unaware of the movement that can scare people's courage just now, and even the dazzling thunder light did not attract them. To anyone's attention, it is still quiet so far.

"Sure enough, no amount of killing is worth it."

Brushing off the dust that didn't exist on his body, and exhaling a long breath, Mu Xiu sensed that if no one came to repair it, probably the circuit failure in this area would definitely not be able to recover by itself with time.

Unknowingly, he has also become a troublesome figure like Sister Pao, for a modern city.

However, the young man was obviously not aware of the property loss caused by the society. He just looked around and found that the figure of an evil spirit was no longer visible. He couldn't help being a little dazed.Naturally, he wasn't shocked by his own strength. In fact, it didn't contribute at all, he was just a little worried.

It seems that every time I leave, go to other worlds, and come back a month later, I must have opened a huge distance from the previous strength ladder.

Once upon a time, when I encountered a B-type evil spirit, I needed the second-order liberation to cooperate desperately with the few hole cards, so that I could exchange injuries for my life. If it wasn't for the "Lord God" light ball and the most bug-repairing function, then he would probably have to use it in the future. Being disabled has been around for a long time.

——Unless the bloodline with immortality has been strengthened, the rebirth of broken limbs or even the rebirth of a drop of blood can only be achieved after the fourth level. The immortality at the cell level is enough to prevent real death as long as there is still a hair.

Later, the B-type evil spirits became high-level miscellaneous soldiers. Although it is not said that they can be destroyed with a backhand, it is no problem to fight a few at a time, but their value has naturally shrunk a lot.

after that……

Anyway, now, for Mu Xiu, even Class A evil spirits can be crushed to death with one finger. It may be a little troublesome for Santuhe and Hong's escape talent to be full, but at most it is two fingers. head.

If Santuhe and Hong knew about it, they would definitely regret not coming to him at the very beginning.It has only been about a quarter now, and what he thought was a chess piece that could be used at the beginning has turned into a murderer who can overturn the chessboard at any time and slap the chessboard on his head to kill him.

However, because of this, Mu Xiu felt a strange feeling.

"How long will it take before I can truly stand on the same level as her, or even... more terrifying?"

He turned around and saw the monster girl lying on the black crack that seemed to blend into the night in mid-air, as if she was staring at the hazy moon in the sky in a daze. gave the answer——

It is just around the corner, not far away, and will be realized in the near future.

When such a heart-pounding voice suddenly sounded, Mu Xiu suddenly felt that he was full of motivation. He let out a long breath, almost unable to bear the throbbing of his heart, and he calmed down after a long while.

"Get ready to go, Zi... It's almost dawn now."

Said lightly, the boy looked around again, this is already the No. 17 source of supernatural disaster they discovered tonight.There is no need for the help of the aura monitoring map at all. Mu Xiu's own perception of breath is enough to cover the entire city or even a farther distance.

Because it is not necessary to fully expand the envelope of perception, but only need to accurately feel where there is a strong breath change.

But this is almost useless work. For Mu Xiu, killing more evil spirits will not bring him any benefits.And Yakumo Zi obviously not only wants to see the existence forms of the ghosts and monsters in this world, but also seems to have saved clues to find more killing stones.

However, it is quite natural, such behavior can only be said to be a preliminary test of the depth of the water, even she herself does not think there is any hope, and Santuhe and Hong have no plans to come out to improve their presence recently.

"Sister Zi? Master Zi? Sister Zi?"

After a long while without hearing a response, Mu Xiu twitched his lips, and with a light tap of his toes, he floated up and came to the black crack.

Sure enough, the monster girl had fallen asleep lying on it in a very leisurely and comfortable position.

"...It seems that I can't rely on this guy, I still have to do it myself."

Looking at the faint hazy whitening of the eastern sky, Mu Xiu felt that he seemed to have found the first rule.
