I cultivate a deity in Tokyo

To unleash the true power of the consecration, it may still require the cooperation of Fahai (a Buddhist monk).

Thinking of this, Bai Mujun once again channeled a wisp of magic power and gently poked Fahai.

The instant Fahai opened his eyes under the stimulation of magical power—

Suddenly, his entire kidney emitted a strong jade light, which not only shone through his body but also illuminated the entire hall.

Bai Mujun remained seated cross-legged, his body enveloped in the light, which made him appear somewhat imposing.

Stimulated by this jade light, the sleeping deity in this hall suddenly opened his eyes slowly.

She sat up, looking at the source of the light with slight dissatisfaction.

His eyes widened immediately.

He rubbed it in disbelief.

I rubbed it again.

I rubbed it again.

Finally, he opened his mouth wide.

what's the situation?

I only took a nap—

Did the white-wood priest turn into light?

Chapter Thirty-One: Precedents of Body Consecration

As Newton said, if you encounter something you can't understand, just stare blankly.

Even the gods are no exception.

She simply sat there, staring blankly as the gentle jade light disappeared into Bai Mujun's body.

Shiraki Shun was also observing.

According to his observation, the jade-colored light did not disappear immediately after entering the body, but remained temporarily under the epidermis.

Gradually, another line of defense with magical power was formed.

At this moment, the physical structure of the skin has not changed.

However, its resistance to magic has been greatly enhanced.

Bai Mujun felt that even if he were to take a direct hit from a Crescent Moon Palm, he shouldn't have any problems now.

This is very useful during exorcism!

It should be noted that ghosts have no physical form; in order to launch an attack, they can only rely on their ghostly power.

But Shiraki Shun's move precisely counters this point.

Because he activated Fahai's kidneys, he became immune to magic.

Seeing the jade light disappear, the goddess stood up and appeared in front of Bai Mujun, looking at him with a face full of doubt.

Bai Mujun sensed the god approaching and looked up, saying, "My Lord God, you're awake?"

"Yes, I'm awake," the god replied instinctively.

"No, no! This isn't the time for this! Priest Shiraki, what did you just do?"

"It's nothing, I just finished consecrating the kidney and am testing the effect," Bai Mujun said with a smile.

"How did the test go?" the god asked curiously.

"In short, the results are quite good, and continuing may lead to even greater discoveries," Shiramu Jun said thoughtfully.

He then asked another question.

"My lord, do you have any suggestions for the next part to be consecrated?"

Do you think it's better to proceed from top to bottom, or to focus on consecrating certain parts first?

Will the other parts of the body also undergo similar changes after consecration?

Seeing Shiramu Jun's eager gaze, the god blinked innocently.

He then lay back down and covered himself with the blanket.

"Waaaaah, Priest Shiraki, I don't think I'm fully awake yet. Can I sleep a little longer?"

The completion of the "consecration" ceremony for the kidneys left Bai Mujun with a deep impression.

At this moment, he was walking on the path of ginseng cultivation, still pondering deeply.

Clearly, there are differences between Shintoism and Buddhism in this kind of consecration of the body.

Buddhist consecration clearly follows the path of physical enhancement, with typical examples being the various tall and mighty Vajra Arhats, whose golden bodies remain intact and whose physical bodies have attained Buddhahood.

It even left people with the impression that anyone who is bald must be very strong.

For example, a certain bald cape-wearing hero.

The consecration ceremony in Shintoism, on the other hand, follows the path of magical power.

Just like the main hall of every shrine, which actually enshrines the divine body of the deity, often just ordinary objects.

However, the gods can use their magic to fundamentally change these objects, thus transforming them into divine objects.

As for what methods will be used to change this, Shiraki Jun still doesn't know.

I sighed; there was simply too little information available.

For matters concerning Buddhism, you can also consult Yuukawa Arashi.

But regarding Shintoism...

It seems like there are people you can ask.

Thinking of this, Bai Mujun decisively took out his phone and made the call.

On the stone steps of Kanda Shrine, Hanekawa Yaya lowered her head, glanced at the caller ID, and answered the call with great excitement.

"Hey, Priest Shiraki! You finally called me! Did you know that the last video has already surpassed two million views?"

Then his expression instantly changed from sunny to cloudy.

"Oh, I don't know."

"So, what's the matter that you called?"

Shiraki Shun didn't notice the change in Hanekawa Yaya's tone. He smiled and asked, "I just wanted to ask the shrine maiden Hanekawa if there are any records of body consecration in the Kanda Shrine's records?"

Consecrating the body?

Yuukawa Yaya was taken aback.

He then said somewhat awkwardly, "Well, I'm not quite sure."

Then his tone changed.

"However, I can ask Granny Chiyo for you. She happens to be at the shrine right now, so if it's available, she'll definitely know."

"I'll hang up now, I'll call you back later!"

He then ran towards the shrine.

He walked straight to a door in the office and knocked softly, calling out.

"Grandma Chiyo, are you there?"

A kind voice came from inside the room: "Come in."

Yu Chuan pushes open the door every night.

Inside the room, a woman with gray hair looked up at Yuukawa Yaya and asked with a kind smile.

"What's wrong? Why did you come here on your own initiative? Did you do something wrong?"

"No, I just wanted to ask you a few questions!" Yuukawa Yaya sat obediently beside her.

"You silly child, when did you become so studious?" Granny Chiyo playfully flicked Hanekawa Yaya's nose.

"I've always been a very studious person, okay!" Yuukawa Yaya pouted unhappily.

Grandma Chiyo smiled knowingly.

What do you want to ask?

"Grandma, I'm asking you, are there any precedents for consecrating bodies before?"

Grandma Chiyo was taken aback.

Who asked that question?

"Don't worry about who asked, just tell me if it's true or not~" Yuukawa Yaya said coquettishly, tugging at Grandma Chiyo's arm.

Grandma Chiyo pondered for a moment, then affirmed.

Yes, of course.

This answer surprised Hanekawa Yaya quite a bit.

After all, she had been a shrine maiden for almost ten years and had never heard of any priest in her shrine successfully consecrating a body.

"Are there many such examples?" she asked cautiously, just to be on the safe side.

"There are quite a few."

"Thank you, Grandma! I understand!" Upon hearing this reply, Yuukawa Yaya immediately stood up, a smile spreading across her face.

"I'm going back now, goodbye Grandma!"

Watching Yuukawa Yaya's figure disappear quickly into the distance, Granny Chiyo picked up the fragrant tea on the table and took a small sip.

Examples of body consecration?

Of course!

Legend has it that when Izanagi escaped from the underworld and washed his face by the river, Amaterasu, the goddess who controls the sun, grew from his left eye, Tsukuyomi, the goddess who controls the moon, grew from his right eye, and Susanoo grew from his nostrils.

These are all products of consecration.

Although I don't know why Yuukawa suddenly became childlike and came to ask about a myth.
