Graveyard, inside the room.
Sun Yan lay on the bed, examining an ancient book in his hand, titled "God-Posing Skill".
This ancient book was the mission reward he received after successfully escaping from the Great Black Heaven Temple last ti.
The so-called god-posing refers to the ritual where a divine statue must have its innards installed before being placed in a temple or main hall, to bestow it with life force.
Both the Buddhist sect and Daoist family have traditions of installing innards in divine statues, usually including the Five Treasures, the Heart Sutra, the Mantra Wheel, scriptures, five-colored leaves, five grains and miscellaneous grains, various seeds, and symbolic vessels. The specific items vary between the Buddhist sect and the Daoist family.
People believe that a divine statue without innards lacks a divine spirit and is easily occupied by malevolent creatures, becoming a wild god.
Only after experiencing the installation of innards can the divine statue possess the ability to provide protection.
Sun Yan flipped through the ancient book, pondering over the god-posing thod described, and couldn’t help but feel quite stunned.
In this era where all divine spirits have mysteriously disappeared, the ancient book states that becoming a god through cultivation is a dead-end.
Instead, seeking rare materials and treasures, and placing them inside oneself to complete the god-posing thod, is the only way to beco a god.
Heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, all to be replaced with spiritual objects.
"What an idea: flesh is weak, chanical ascension." Sun Yan laughed.
To replace one’s organs with treasures to beco a god, he thought, was akin to becoming like a robot, making this thod of becoming a god rather unconventional.
Yet, considering the current age of absent gods and monsters, paying such a price to beco a god doesn’t seem too significant.
If one can beco a god, who would care if their body is human or not?
"I have the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skill of the True Monarch of Pure Origin and Mysterious Dao, and this god-posing thod can be used in conjunction. I can also apply the thod to Sosia and Elise and even repair Sosia’s broken arm."
Sun Yan thought to himself, already forming a plan on how to use this "God-Posing Skill" to enhance the strength of the cetery mbers.
"Jackson! Dinner’s ready!"
On the staircase on the first floor, Sosia shouted towards the second floor.
Soon, Sun Yan ca downstairs, seeing the dining table crowded with people.
With the addition of Ailanda to the cetery mbers, als had beco more crowded, making Sun Yan consider whether it was ti to get a larger table.
"Jackson, I’m leaving after this al. Thank you for your hospitality during this ti."
Roken said to Sun Yan, holding a piece of pizza.
"Where are you going? The Evil God Council might still target you." Sun Yan asked, puzzled.
During his ti in Tibet, Roken’s wounds had healed well, thanks to the ointnt provided by Master Bazaar, and he was now full of energy.
But Sun Yan didn’t expect that Roken wanted to leave at this mont.
Roken was being hunted by the Evil God Council, and his only safety was within the cetery, under the protection of the Tomb Guardian.
Once he left the cetery, Roken might face assassins sent by the Evil God Council again.
"I can’t stay here forever. I’m planning to go to the headquarters of the Exorcist Association and reapply to join the ’Saviors’."
Roken’s expression was firm, and seeing this, Sun Yan knew he couldn’t dissuade him. After living in the cetery for so long, Sun Yan had a good understanding of Roken’s character.
"Alright, take care on your way."
"Jessica will be going with to join the ’Saviors’." Roken glanced at Sister Jessica, a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
From his expression, Sun Yan could clearly see so affection, and suddenly it dawned on him.
Since he t these two, they had been inseparable, helping and supporting each other.
They entered Hell together, found their way to his graveyard, and Jessica protected the injured Roken from New York to Gospel Town.
They experienced life-and-death situations in Tibet, so it was only natural for feelings to develop between them in such circumstances.
"Just in ti, I also need to head out to San Francisco after this al; I can give you a lift to Saint Anna City to catch your flight." Sun Yan picked up a piece of pizza, smiling.
Unexpectedly, a romance blossod within his cetery, which was indeed a blessing.
"You’re going to San Francisco? For what?" Sosia asked quickly.
They had just returned from Tibet not long ago, and now Sun Yan suddenly needed to go out again, clearly indicating a significant matter.
Sosia knew she now only had one arm, her combat abilities greatly reduced, and couldn’t assist Sun Yan as she used to.
"Just a small matter, I’m going to find sothing and will be right back. You should all stay in the graveyard and don’t wander around." Sun Yan earnestly instructed.
The Spirit Realm is dangerous, and their recent trip to Tibet was already a near-death experience. If they encounter a more perilous Spirit Realm again, Sun Yan could not guarantee he could save everyone successfully again.
...
After driving Roken and Jessica to Saint Anna City in the Iong U8, and bidding them farewell, Sun Yan proceeded alone to San Francisco.
This was not his first ti in the city, thanks to his previous experience in Youma Community.
Now, many Chinese in San Francisco traveled to Youma Community from afar to offer incense at the Earth Shrine, and it could be said that most of Sun Yan’s Incense Ash Magical Power ca from here.
