Chapter 328: Divine Bone and the Flower of Sin
Shen Tu immediately told the local god what had happened in the Diao family. The local god stroked his beard and asked Yin Niang to come over and take a look.
"Your situation is a bit serious..." Just when everyone was shocked and thought that something had happened to Yin Niang, the land master said, "Your evil spirit is too strong. If this can't be resolved, sooner or later you will lose your mind, turn into a demon, and harm the world..."
Diao Xinyan's heart skipped a beat: "Even if I avenge her and clear her up, is that not enough?"
The land master shook his head: "Injustice is only one of the reasons. If it were an ordinary undead soul, once the injustice was cleared, it would be free and it could go to the underworld to be reincarnated. But this is not..."
They don’t have an underworld yet!
This is the first point. The second point is that Yin Niang’s ghost was tampered with by someone.
The reason why Shentu and Yulei didn't see it was that although they were righteous gods, this area was not under their jurisdiction, so it was normal that they couldn't see it.
The land lord is different. He is in charge of both the living and the dead. He can be said to be "knowledgeable and experienced" and knows a little bit about everything.
I just can't solve it.
"Someone has tampered with her body. We need to ask the mountain god to come personally to handle this matter."
…
When Yang Xiangwei received the message from the Land Lord, she was filled with surprise: The Land Lord is in charge of many affairs in the world, and this matter is so troublesome that even he can't solve it?
When He appeared in the courtyard, He emanated a soft and solemn light from His body, instantly illuminating the land that had been shrouded in haze for a long time.
His eyes were as sharp as a torch, and with just one glance, he was able to see through the secrets hidden in Yin Niang.
"The land god is right. Someone did something to Yin Niang," Yang Xiangwei frowned slightly and said in a serious tone, "The injustice she suffered was not caused naturally, but was deliberately fabricated by someone."
Diao Xinyan was full of confusion and couldn't help but blurt out: "Fabricated? She was murdered by the Mao family, isn't that obvious?"
Yang Xiangwei shook her head slightly, her eyes revealing a wisdom that saw through everything, and explained: "Although it appears so on the surface, there is another hidden story behind it. Someone carefully planned this series of tragedies for some ulterior motive. Yin Niang is just one of the victims, and her grievances are just a tool used by others."
After saying that, Yang Xiangwei slowly walked to the pile of bones.
He slowly raised his hands, bright light shone from his palms, and mysterious power surged around his body.
As He muttered something, the bones that were originally scattered on the ground seemed to be pulled by some powerful force and slowly moved on their own.
Each piece of bone seemed to have life, approaching and fitting together, trying to piece together a complete human figure.
However, something strange happened. No matter how hard the bones were pieced together, they could never restore a complete corpse.
Most of the bones were pieced together only halfway, leaving only incomplete limbs, while others were broken into several pieces, appearing in a dilapidated state.
When everyone saw this, they all gasped, their eyes filled with shock and fear.
They knew that the Mao family was cruel and had set Yin Niang on fire, leaving only a charred leg bone. But they didn't expect that among so many people, not a single body was intact.
Yin Niang's ghost watched this scene from the side, and her emotions became agitated again, with blood and tears flowing uncontrollably.
She let out a shrill cry, her voice full of pain and unwillingness: "Why? Why is this happening? What did I do wrong to deserve such torture!"
Yang Xiangwei turned to look at Yin Niang, her eyes full of pity, and said softly: "Child, don't be sad. This is not your fault, but the sin of those evil people. They tried to achieve some evil purpose through such cruel means, but made you innocent people suffer endless pain."
Diao Xinyan looked at the scene in front of her, anger and confusion intertwined in her heart: "Lord Mountain God, may I ask what their purpose is?"
Yang Xiangwei did not respond to Diao Xinyan's question immediately, but cast the spell again with a serious expression.
He waved his hands, and the light became brighter. The soft and solemn light surged towards the mutilated corpse on the ground like a tide.
As the light enveloped, the originally broken bones began to change. The missing parts gradually emerged as translucent phantoms, like illusory puzzles, filling the gaps in the bones bit by bit.
Although these phantoms seem unreal, they have a strange quality, as if they come from another mysterious dimension.
Everyone held their breath and watched it all nervously.
I saw black and red blood lines quietly emerging on the translucent phantom, like a wriggling strange creature, exuding a gloomy and terrifying aura.
The blood lines intertwined and twisted, as if they had their own will.
Yang Xiangwei frowned and concentrated on controlling the spell, piecing together and integrating the blood lines bit by bit.
Under the gaze of everyone, the blood lines gradually formed a complex and mysterious pattern, which was an unfinished formation.
The runes in the formation flickered, emitting a terrifying evil aura.
Yang Xiangwei looked at the formation, her expression becoming more solemn, and she slowly said, "This is an extremely evil method of sacrifice. Someone is trying to sacrifice these innocent people, using their souls and lives as sacrifices to an unknown god in exchange for the god's blessing or permission."
Diao Xinyan was shocked: "Sacrifice? How could someone do such a cruel thing!"
Thinking of the recent "divine bone incident", Yang Xiangwei already had a guess in her mind. She said, "If my guess is correct, they should want to use this evil sacrificial formation to create as much pain and suffering as possible, hoping that through this extreme pain and suffering, the flower of sin will grow. Only when the flower of sin blooms, will a miracle be born..."
"What miracle?"
"The gods reappear!"
…
Because the old gods are dead, if you want new gods to appear, you either have to bring gods from other places, or... destroy them and then create new ones!
Now what they have to do is to "break" it.
The more extreme and terrifying something is, the more it can compound the pain and increase the despair of the human race.
In this way, the person who "changes" the world can be born out of despair, that is, the "God" in their minds.
Yang Xiangwei had to admit that some people's ideas were indeed bold. If they really achieved that, new gods might really be born.
After all, the person who "saviors the world" will definitely be deified and worshipped as a god.
Becoming a god through incense and offerings actually follows this path - do good deeds, be placed on the altar, and worshipped with incense and offerings.
It’s just that those who become gods through incense will go wherever there is suffering, and they really go to save the world; but the way they take is to create suffering even if there is no suffering. If you don’t create it, how can they “save the world” and accumulate so much merit to “become gods”?
For a moment, Yang Xiangwei didn’t know which one was more reliable, the “Flower of Sin” or the “Sacred Bone Incident”.
Although both are gods, the God Bone directly creates the "God Bone", while the "Flower of Sin"...
