Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

Chapter 57 Panacea and Wishing Stone

"The Taishan Fujun Festival that is circulating today is basically an incomplete version."

This version emphasizes the concept of exchanging one life for another, that is, praying to the Lord of Mount Tai to use one's own life to revive another.

The super forbidden technique that Gu Yun heard from his grandfather—which involved misappropriating the power of the Lord of Mount Tai, deceiving the laws of the Yellow Springs, and secretly releasing a soul—is clearly two completely different spells.

Come to think of it, the idea of ​​misappropriating the power of such a revered god is really too exaggerated.

This shows they have no intention of leaving any way out for ordinary warlocks.

"The reason why a complete Taishan Fujun ritual requires such a high spiritual level is mainly because the soul has been taken away in the afterlife."

At this moment, Miss Tianhu explained, "If the soul has not yet gone to the Yellow Springs, then to resurrect a person, the first step can actually be skipped."

In fact, the first step is the most troublesome.

When a soul returns to the underworld, it will be protected by the entire underworld.

You could say that if you want to recall your soul from the underworld, you are essentially fighting against the rules of a world with your own strength.

In comparison, the latter two steps, physical creation and spiritual union, are actually much simpler.

Physical creation is a 60-spirit-level domain, and its difficulty is equally high.

If the spirit and body are united, even illusions can be cast.

The idea of ​​bringing a soul back to life while still possessing a living body is, in essence, a resurrection technique.

The Resurrection Spell, at most, is a spell with 40 spirit points.

"So, the spirit here."

Nao Hayasaka asked, "Does 70 spirit level mean it's very high?"

"Um"

"In Western magic, 70 spirit points are defined as 'one who has grasped the truth'," Miss Tianhu said knowledgeably in this regard. "Does Xiaogu Yun know about the Philosopher's Stone?"

The Philosopher's Stone, also known as the Philosopher's Stone, the Stone from Heaven, the Philosopher's Stone, the raw material for gold and silver, the red potion, the fifth element, etc.

In Western legends, it is the pinnacle of alchemy, and is therefore revered as a 'great miracle' and a 'great creation'.

"what is that?!"

Iijima Tamaki seemed to have never heard of the Philosopher's Stone. Hayasaka Nao, who was standing next to her, said, "It's a mythical treasure that can create anything, grant any wish, and even easily make the elixir of immortality."

"Madam can be understood as a panacea and a wishing stone."

In this world, according to the information Miss Tenko knows, the Philosopher's Stone can create anything in the material world.

It can even force the creation of things that don't exist in the world, based on your needs and imagination.

Therefore, within the realm of the material world, it is not entirely wrong to say that the Philosopher's Stone is an omnipotent wish-granting machine.

"Immortality, and the fulfillment of all wishes..."

The mother asked incredulously, "Does this Philosopher's Stone really exist?"

"Well, who knows? Anyway, I've never seen the real Philosopher's Stone."

Kong Huan looked at Gu Yun with a particularly solemn expression: "However, I do know of something that has the same effect as the Philosopher's Stone, or even is more powerful than it."

"Ok?"

Gu Yun asked, "What is it?"

"Shh!"

Miss Tianhu stretched out a finger and poked Gu Yun's cheek: "Of course it's you, little master."

"Aha?!"

Gu Yun was stunned for a moment, and Iijima Tamaki and Hayasaka Nao also looked puzzled.

Have you heard the story of the Tripitaka Master?

Kong Huan said, "It's the one that's widely circulated in the great Eastern country."

"Journey to the West?"

Gu Yun thought that Kong Huan was referring to the legend of Tang Sanzang's flesh, but Miss Tianhu asked in confusion, "What is that?"

Unfortunately, Konghuan has never read Journey to the West.

Or perhaps, when she was sealed away, Teacher Wu had not yet written Journey to the West.

how to say?

In this world, Sun Wukong is fictional, but Tang Sanzang is a real historical figure.

“Since 1,400 years ago, Japan has repeatedly traveled across the ocean to learn various skills from countries across the sea.”

It was through this opportunity that the Japanese monsters heard about the deeds of the monk Sanzang, thus forming the 'living liver belief' that has plagued Japan for thousands of years.

The term "living liver" here refers to the human internal organs.

The monsters believed that eating the heart and internal organs of people with spiritual power could bring them immense demonic power.

Of course, this idea is not wrong, but not everyone's flesh and blood can have this effect.

Legend has it that eating a piece of the flesh of the Tang Monk can grant immortality.

Konghuan originally thought this claim was nonsense.

Until she met her current owner.

“Young master, your flesh and blood are far superior to those of the Tang Monk.”

According to Konghuan, if Gu Yun's spiritual flesh could be used as material, then refining Philosopher's Stones would be as easy as playing around; they could refine as many as they wanted.

Similarly, if demons, monsters, or even gods ate Gu Yun's flesh, the benefits they would receive would be so great that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they would ascend to heaven in one step.

Shui Tianhou was completely captivated by the aura emanating from Gu Yun.

The allure of flesh and blood is self-evident.

However, Shui Tianhou was, after all, a deity. She did desire Gu Yun, but she also knew that she could not withstand Gu Yun's flesh and blood power.

Being able to give one's name to the other party and wait for Gu Yun's summons is enough to satisfy one's heart.

But demons wouldn't think that way.

In order to gain power, they would not hesitate for a moment, even at the risk of going mad, collapsing, or being completely destroyed.

"Then wouldn't I be in great danger?!"

This was the first time Gu Yun had ever heard of such a thing. He suddenly thought of his regular physical exams: "Right, the blood drawn during the school physical exams..."

"Oh, that's useless."

Ms. Tianhu stated that what she called flesh and blood was not simply matter, but something far more complex.

To truly devour Gu Yun, he needs to unleash his Spirit Vision ability.

For example, the flesh and blood offered by the Water Queen only have an effect on the gods after Gu Yun releases 50 spirit points and enters the realm of the gods.

In the material world, unless someone uses a forbidden method of a very high level to extract it.

Otherwise, no one could extract Gu Yun's spirit and flesh through simple physical means.

"A spirit level exceeding 60 can directly interfere with reality and even distort the laws of physics."

Kong Huan said, "At that level, just thinking about it can affect reality because of one's immense power."

In theory, Gu Yun now possesses such power.

And this is only 60 spirit points.

If 60 is only a partial influence, then 70 is a true subversion and alteration.

The power of the Philosopher's Stone needs no further explanation.

So, what does it mean to have a spirit level of 70?

That is the living Philosopher's Stone!

As long as Gu Yun uses his spiritual vision technique to free his body from its self-imposed constraints and enters the 70th level of spiritual power, the power to make his wishes come true is just a thought away.

"Okay, great"

Tamaki Iijima and Nao Hayasaka were completely dumbfounded.

They had always held Gu Yun in high regard, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was the most important treasure in their lives.

However, after listening to Konghuan's explanation, they realized that they really knew too little about that world.

"So my Gu Yun is such a powerful being."

Tamaki Iijima's eyes lit up, and Nao Hayasaka couldn't help but nod repeatedly. Seeing this, Gu Yun asked, "Can my flesh really grant immortality?"

"can!"

"That"

Before Gu Yun could speak, Miss Tianhu loudly stopped him, saying, "Absolutely not to give it to Huan-chan and Nao-chan!"

"why?"

Indeed, there are some taboos involved.

After all, it's eating human flesh, and it's even the flesh of one's own child.

But compared to immortality, what is this?

If Gu Yun could grant his mother eternal life, would he, as her son, not even be willing to part with a single piece of her flesh?

"The 'living liver' faith is a cursed and forbidden ritual!"

With Kong Huan's explanation, everyone finally understood how cursed this method of gaining magical power by devouring living beings could be.

Even if Gu Yun willingly gave up his spirit and flesh.

Under Gu Yun's protection, Mother and Hayasaka Nao might not simply vanish like the demons.

But once they eat his flesh, Tamaki Iijima and Nao Hayasaka will be cursed for eternity, living in immense suffering.

"The power gained from the Liver Faith is filled with evil and resentment."
