Chapter 219 Planting the Sun and the Moon



As Shen Yuan finished speaking, Mita You seemed to feel that the entire mountain under his feet was shaking slightly.

The fatigue brought by the previous climb up the mountain suddenly dissipated rapidly at this moment. Stepping on the mountain, Mita Yu felt as if his body was soaked in a hot spring, and endless energy continued to flow out of his body.

Mita Yu even had the illusion that he could lift the mountain beneath his feet.

But this feeling was only fleeting, and Mitada You subconsciously waved his arms. Apart from feeling the fatigue in his body disappear, Mitada You did not find any difference between himself and before.

Mita You looked at Shen Yuan with his bright eyes wide open curiously.

"Mountain God?"

The young Mita U naturally would not believe what Shen Yuan said and thought that he had become the mountain god.

He just asked expectantly:

"Did the mountain god agree not to perform the sacrifice?"

Shen Yuan raised his brows slightly.

When he attacked Mita Yu, besides feeling a little sympathy in his heart, he actually also had some experimental ideas in mind.

What he just said to Mita Ue was the use of the decree method from his supernatural power to exorcise gods.

According to his mastery of the magical power to exorcise gods, it would be just a matter of a word for him to enthronize a god of heaven in the territory of Dayin.

Although the worship of gods and spirits is not very popular in this world, it should be easy to confer the title of mountain god on a child.

But after completing the conferring, he discovered that the soul of Mita Ue in front of him was indeed connected to the mountain under his feet, and his fate as a mountain god was enough to make him the god of mountains.

However, Mita Ue, the mountain god of this place, did not receive the blessing of the mountain and did not master the power that a mountain god should have.

Apart from the fact that he has endless energy when walking on mountains, Mita Ueya has only gained some strength and is almost no different from an ordinary person.

In this situation, even a small monster in the Refining Essence Realm can easily kill Mita U, so he is not qualified to be called a mountain god.

A strange look flashed in Shen Yuan's eyes.

He vaguely felt that this might be related to the spider demon replacing the sun and disrupting the rules of heaven and earth.

If he cannot find the key, it will inevitably affect his subsequent plan to break the deadlock.

After thinking for a while, Shen Yuan looked at the child again, whose eyes were full of expectation, and said casually:

"You are now a mountain god. As long as you don't want to perform the mountain god sacrifice, no one can force you."

After saying that, Shen Yuan turned and walked towards the wooden house he had built earlier, picked up a tool he had made earlier and walked under the big tree.

Mita's face flushed, and he was so excited that he ignored the first sentence and kept muttering:

"The mountain god said that we don't need to hold a sacrifice anymore. I must tell everyone in the village when I get back!"

Mita Yuben wanted to turn around and go home immediately, but when he saw Shen Yuan's departing back, he was filled with curiosity.

Running quickly behind Shen Yuan with his short legs, Mita U asked curiously:

"Lord Mountain God, are you going to farm?"

When Shen Yuan heard this, his mouth twitched subconsciously, and he couldn't help but look at his clothes.

The thing in his hand was a magical tool for combing the earth's veins that he had made a few days ago using the corpses of demons.

However, from the appearance, this magic weapon is quite similar to a hoe used to loosen the soil for farming. In addition, Shen Yuan's clothes were torn in the previous battle, so he just found an ordinary coarse cloth uniform to put on, which really has some farming flavor.

After killing the monster on the mountain a few days ago, Shen Yuan chose to stay on the mountain and prepare to start his plan.

Although Zhu Ming Cheng Ye and Sui Mu Tian Han in Shen Yuan's hands contain the true meaning of the sun and the moon, they cannot be compared with the real sun and the moon.

It is sheer wishful thinking to want to simply replace the sun and the moon with the bright night and the cold weather at the end of the year in order to restore order in this world.

So Shen Yuan thought of a way, which was to comb the earth veins, use the Xuanhuang Qi to nourish the true meaning of the sun and the moon, and use the Nine Breaths Qi-controlling supernatural power as an aid, until the real prototypes of the sun and the moon were born.

This process will definitely be quite long, and is definitely not comparable to the refining of the demon fetus in the last Earth Gate Trial, so Shen Yuan has already prepared to endure the hard time.

Building houses and refining instruments to comb the earth's veins were all part of the plan. Who would have thought that this little brat in front of me would think of it as farming.

Shen Yuan suppressed his twitching mouth corners and said unhappily:

"Just go and farm."

"Wow! The mountain god also needs to farm?"

Mita You widened his eyes in surprise and couldn't help asking:

"Is it true that the mountain god excreted sand and gravel after eating corn?"

"After the mountain god finishes planting the fields, does he need to use the harvested grain to offer sacrifices to other mountain gods?"

"What is the mountain god planting?"

Without the worry of worshiping the mountain god, Mita You was curious and asked Shen Yuan a lot of inexplicable questions.

Shen Yuan's mouth twitched, but he did not reprimand Mita U for this. Instead, he replied casually:

"I don't eat corn."

"I don't need to offer sacrifices to other mountain gods."

As they were talking, Shen Yuan and Mita You had already walked under the mountain god tree.

After approaching the Yamagami tree, Mita U suddenly discovered that the ground around the Yamagami tree had been cleared and fields had been cultivated.

However, there are no crops planted in these fields. Instead, there are patterns drawn that resemble the direction of mountains.

Eight fields guard the mountain god tree in the center. Mita Yu even seemed to see a dark yellow light flowing among the fields, and then quickly disappeared.

On the mountain god tree, the extra branches and leaves have been trimmed.

In the cold wind of autumn, two green sprouts are quietly growing on the big tree, which seem to be pregnant with unknown new life.

Mita You stared at the green buds on the tree with fascination, but heard Shen Yuan's slow words at this time.

"What I planted was the sun and the moon!"

On this day, Mita Yu stayed on the mountain for the entire evening before returning home.

When Mita U returned home, he was immediately scolded by his furious father. Two bamboo sticks in the house were broken, leaving Mita U unable to get out of bed for two days.

As for the village's mountain god worship, before Mitada You had the chance to tell the villagers, he learned that several intelligent demons had come to the village, claiming that the elders were performing sacrifices in the name of the mountain god.

Mountain gods do not need sacrifices!

Then, several demons ate the elders in front of the whole village.

Since then, the surrounding villages have become more reverent towards the mountain god, but the custom of worshiping him has disappeared.

Mita Yu grew up day by day, and his mother's little sister survived the winter because of sufficient food. Mita Yu was very grateful to the mountain god and ran to the mountain whenever he had time.

Although he was caught by his father and beaten several times, he was surprised to find that no matter how swollen his buttocks were, it would recover quickly as long as he walked up the mountain.

After discovering this amazing phenomenon, Mita U became even more interested in going up the mountain.

Mitada Ue was not able to see the mountain god farming every time he went up the mountain.

Most of the time, the mountain god is not on the mountain. When you reach the top of the mountain, you can only see the mountain god’s cabin and the rusty sword hanging outside the cabin.

Gradually, Mita Yu began to deal with other creatures in the mountain.

The wild boars and green snakes in the forest and the sparrows and crows in the trees have all become Mita You's good friends.

After the winter passed and the next spring came, Mita U secretly took a handful of rice seeds from his home and planted them in the eight fields around the mountain god tree while the mountain god was not at home.

Mita U felt that it was a pity that the mountain god had not planted any crops in the eight grain fields he had reclaimed on the top of the mountain called the Xuanhuang Bagua Array. It must be that the mountain god lacked seeds.

Although he was beaten again at home, Mita U felt that he had helped the mountain god and was very happy.

The quality of the eight fertile fields on the mountain far exceeded Mita Yu's expectations. Just a few days after the seeds were sown, rice grains began to take root and sprout.

When the mountain god returned home and looked at his subordinates' eight rice fields in confusion, Mita U ran out excitedly to take credit.

In the end, Mita Yu was beaten up.

This time, Mita U found that he could not heal the injuries left by the beating from the mountain god.

Mita U stubbornly believed that the sun and moon planted by the mountain god were not yet mature, while the rice he planted was ripe, and the mountain god was embarrassed and beat him.

As the only person within dozens of miles who could run to the mountains at any time, Mita You often brought back some herbs and food from the mountains to supplement the family income.

There was even one time when he brought back a precious elixir, which was taken away by a passing merchant. The money he got in return successfully allowed his family to buy an extra piece of land.

According to the rules, Mita Ue should change his name to Yota Ue so that the family property can be passed down, but he still refused the request to change the name.

After meeting the mountain god, Mitau felt that four fields were no longer enough for him, and his goal became to own eight fields of his own like the mountain god.

In this way, time passed day by day, and Mita Uya grew up day by day.

Even after getting married and starting a family, Mita U still went to the mountain to pay homage to the mountain god every two days.

Although the mountain god cannot be seen most of the time, Mita U will still use the farm tools in front of the wooden house to cultivate the Bagua fertile fields on the top of the mountain to increase the rice harvest next year.

As Mita Yu grew up, he began to come into contact with things happening outside the surrounding villages.

Mita U heard from a passing merchant that in the land of a hundred countries there was a country called Mu, which was named by a dynasty called Dayin and became the orthodox humanity in this world.

The ruler of the Mu State was given the title of king and called himself the Mu King, and began to conquer other hundreds of countries.

In just ten years, most of the hundred countries have come under the rule of Sakunobu. Many of the remaining countries were able to protect themselves only because they were too far away, but they would also be quickly defeated by Sakunobu.

I heard from merchants who have been to the capital of Mu State that the city wall of Mu State’s capital is more than ten feet high, and it is extremely prosperous and can accommodate millions of people.

Moreover, as the capital of the Mu State is a city bestowed by the destiny of humanity, no demons will be seen even at dusk. Once a demon appears in the capital, it will be suppressed by the destiny of humanity.

People there don't have to worry about being killed by demons even if they sleep on the streets.

The villagers were all amazed at the prosperity and power of the capital of the Shogunate, but only Mitada Ue, after hearing the words of the merchant, began to develop a strong interest in the country called Dayun.

He told the Lord Mountain God about this matter, and then he saw for the first time a look of joy on the Lord Mountain God's face, and he whispered something like "I am not alone".

The second time that Mita U was shocked by the changes in the outside world was when a passing wizard came to the village and asked for the night.

The wizard called himself Onmyoji. He converted to Shintoism several years ago and practiced Onmyoji with several great Onmyojis.

From the hands of the Onmyoji, Mita U learned the method of using shikigami to exorcise demons, as well as the method of using talismans to cast spells.

According to Onmyoji, Shintoism rose ten years ago and quickly spread among hundreds of countries because of its ability to subdue demons.

Whether in the Shogunate or other countries, there were people who worshipped Shintoism and practiced Yin-Yang magic to fight against demons.

In Shintoism, two Heavenly Masters are worshipped. Every Onmyoji must burn incense and pray to the two Heavenly Masters every day before he can perform Onmyoji magic.

Ordinary people also need to raise funds, build shrines to worship the two heavenly masters, and pray day and night in order to receive the protection of Shintoism.

Mitada U also told the mountain god the same news, but he heard the mountain god laugh three times and repeatedly said words like "short-sighted".

The third change that shocked Mita Ue happened right beside him.

Just at dusk today, Mita U saw a large number of demons appearing outside the wilderness. These demons gathered together spontaneously, and in the front were several big demons who claimed to be the messengers of the Ghost King.

These demons crossed the wilderness, took away many small demons that originally roamed around the village, and went to the Dajiang Mountain, where thousands of demons were said to live.

The human world has its own laws, and demons must abide by the laws of the Ghost King. This is the will of the Ghost King of Oeyama.

At this time, Mita U was already in his twenties. After seeing the demons patrolling the night parade of one hundred demons, he chose to go up the mountain as soon as possible.

At the top of the mountain, Mita U saw the mountain god who was watching the hundreds of demons go away.

Suddenly, Mita U discovered that the past ten years had not left any traces on the face of the mountain god. The mountain god's appearance had remained the same as it was more than ten years ago and had never changed.

On the other hand, he himself has become a little old due to the burden of his family and more than ten years of hard work. Only when he steps into the mountain can he feel a kind of tranquility that he has never experienced before.

"Lord Mountain God."

Mita U spoke softly, but did not receive a response from the mountain god.

The first two times the news was told to the mountain god, both the Bakukoku and Shintoism made the mountain god smile.

Seeing the One Hundred Demons Night Parade restraining the demons today should have been a good thing, but Mita U did not see a smile on the face of the mountain god.

“Soon.”

Shen Yuan looked towards the horizon. The sun at dusk before sunset seemed a little dimmer than it was more than ten years ago.

But such changes cannot affect the foundation of the Dusk Sun. As long as no one can replace him, he will still be the sun of this world.

Beneath that gloomy appearance, there is endless malice brewing, and once it erupts, everything will be turned upside down!

Shen Yuan slowly withdrew his gaze from the sunset sun. Over the past ten years, he had already figured out some of the rules in his mind, but he still didn't dare to look directly at the sunset sun for a long time.

Then, he looked at the big tree surrounded by the Xuanhuang Bagua Formation not far away.

On the big tree, the green buds have blossomed into flowers, and the embryonic forms of two fruits are quietly developing.

Shen Yuan whispered again:

“Soon.”
