section I
"My friend!" I shouted.
"Tiger Cub!"
There was no need to say anything else. They had been comrades for 243 years, and they were already unyielding to each other. My friend Shi Ang took the golden shield I gave him and smiled.
It was as if a thousand suns were exploding beside us, and billions of lightning bolts were spinning around us…Unknowingly, my friend Shi Ang and I had already fallen into the vortex of lightning.
Since ancient times, the God of Thunder had always been the messenger of justice, the God of War in the sky. In the western legends, only the truly brave could use lightning. But now, there was also a demon star who could use lightning in the underworld warriors--the Japanese God of Creation Izanami.
"Tiger Cub, how long can you last?" Shion glanced at me, and a hint of melancholy flashed across his elegant face. I understood his concern. After my body returned to normal, my bodily functions deteriorated much faster than usual. But…
"Heh, my friend, you still haven't recognized my strength.”Suppressing the emotions in my heart, I rushed forward at the speed of light. The speed of lightning was not inferior to light, and the power of lightning was equivalent to the punch of a gold saint. However, this is not difficult for me!
That terrifying black shadow was already in front of him, carrying an overwhelming hatred!
"It's time." I was about to punch, but my hand was grabbed by him.
"My friend, you…"
"Tiger Cub, you want to use the Hundred Dragon Tyrant, right?”
“……”
"Have you forgotten what you told the Purple Dragon? When your stamina is low, you absolutely cannot use Rising Dragon Tyrant, let alone Hundred Dragon Tyrant. If one had to use this technique, once the blood in the whole body boiled and flowed backward, the cells would not be able to withstand it, and all the capillaries would rupture. In other words, you're committing suicide!"
"But…"
"Sit down, Tiger Cub. Don't underestimate your friend's strength."
As the lightning flashed, Shion's long hair flew up like an angry golden sheep.
"I'll show you the power of the current Pope!”
He raised the golden diamond high in the air with his left hand. The lightning gathered at the tip of the diamond from all directions as if it had heard an imperial order. At that moment, Shi Ang seemed to be draped in a cloak woven from lightning. He looked like the Yellow Emperor who had descended into the world with the help of lightning. He monopolized all the nobility in the world and looked around with incomparable dignity.
"Hmph, really." I retreated to the side. My friend, you are a descendant of Mu Continent after all. Your ability to use tools is indeed unparalleled.
Shion stabbed the golden diamond deep into the ground, and the lightning that filled the sky also sank into the ground. As the lightning dissipated, we finally saw Izanami's true appearance and couldn't help but feel disgusted. In front of us was a gemstone maggot that was shining with a strange white light.
"According to the records in Japan's 'Records of Ancient Incidents': Izanami was originally the God of Creation of Japan. When she gave birth to the Fire God, she was unfortunately burned to death. Her husband, Izanagi, missed her very much and chased her all the way to the Netherworld Kingdom. He personally went to the Yellow Springs Kingdom and saw a terrifying scene:
" Izanami was lying naked on the ground. She was covered in wriggling white maggots. Pus was flowing everywhere. She panted as if something was stuck in her throat. She was moaning in pain, as if there were countless wounds on her body.'This maggot was probably her prototype.”
Shi Ang was expressionless as he listened to my introduction.
"Crystal Net!"
The transparent, brilliant, and divine web immediately wrapped around the white maggot.
"Something that should not appear in the mortal world, please return to the underworld!”
With the appearance of the brilliant light, the maggots and the crystal net disappeared. However, at that moment, I saw Shion's sad face.
My friend, when you hear the story of Izanami, do you remember the past?
"I feel sorry for Izanami.”Shion said lightly.
"Yes, I am." I nodded and said," She was very loving with her husband when she was alive. After she died, she was forced to separate from him. If that was all, she would have been left with endless longing. However, her loving husband had found the Netherworld Kingdom and saw her terrifying appearance…Terrified by the scene in front of him, Izanagi hurriedly threw down the torch and ran out with all his might. Izanami, who had been startled, jumped up and chased after him naked. As she ran, she shouted,"Who allowed you to come in and peek? Izanagi, you have humiliated me, you will pay a huge price for this!”
Shion continued, using his incomparably clear voice to say,""Izanami personally chased him to the border of the Yellow Springs. Izanagi picked up a thousand-pound boulder and blocked the exit of the underworld.”
Separated by this thousand-pound boulder, the loving couple looked at each other.
Separated by this thousand-pound boulder, today's resentful enemies had turned against each other.
"Izanami shouted,'My dear husband, since we've already settled the debt of love, we'll be enemies for ten thousand years from now on! From now on, I will kill thousands of living beings in your kingdom every day and make the human race extinct forever.'”
At this point, he and I looked at each other and were silent. When we were in the Holy Region, didn't I tell him that his youth was illusory? In a sense, wasn't he very similar to Izanami?
"I'm very lucky." " Oh?" Shi Ang suddenly laughed." My resurrection didn't scare my friends away, nor did I become enemies for ten thousand years. I'm much luckier than Izena.”
"It's been 230 years. What's there that you and I don't understand?”I replied with a frown.
For the past 230 years, the old him and the me who sat alone had used the small universe to talk. It could be said that they had talked about everything.
"Isn't Izanami and Izanaki a thousand year old love debt?”
“……”
After hesitating for a while, I mustered my courage and said,"My friend Shi Ang, do you know that I hesitated for a very long time whether or not to revive you?”
"Oh?" Shion looked at me with interest.
"You only have one life, that's why it's precious. You spilled Athena's blood on Saga and the others, but you didn't get a single drop of it. Is it really okay for me to resurrect you?”
"Not good, you have disturbed a person's eternal sleep, especially an old man who has been waiting for 248 years (230 18)!”
"I'm sorry, my friend…"
At that moment, Shion smiled happily, as bright and transparent as crystal.
"Tiger Cub, you must be senile. Being able to fight alongside you is more important than anything else.”
At this point, he bowed deeply to me."Thank you, my friend."
I didn't know how to answer. Hot emotions were rolling in his heart, but he couldn't speak.
Why? We've been talking for 230 years. Although they hadn't talked for the past 13 years, hadn't they only parted for a short while just now? Why did she have so much to say to him? However, there was nothing he could say.
Suddenly, an unprecedentedly powerful small universe rose in the secret realm. Before Shi Ang and I could react, our bodies were already sent flying out involuntarily, crashing heavily into the mountain wall.
