This kind of "blessing" is not only in the religious sense, but sometimes also in the physical sense.
Most modern people do not believe in the exorcism of demons mentioned in the classics, but they certainly drove away wild beasts for the villagers. In recorded history, many shrine maidens were good at archery.
Just like the historic magic-breaking bow in Lingye's hand.
The shrine also has a tradition of arrow making.
It was not the white-feathered arrow without an arrowhead used in the ritual, but a real magic-breaking arrow. One arrow could kill a pheasant, and three or five arrows could drive away a wild boar.
In the past, shrines established their prestige by driving away rampant wild beasts and even bandits for the villagers.
"This is the exorcist arrow of Izumo Taisha Shrine. Legend has it that it was held by the previous generation of the Sun Priestess. We put it here as a sacrifice. There are only three in total."
The previous generation of the Sunday priestess, this must be a lie. After all, that happened nearly a hundred years ago, and the wood should have rotted long ago.
But this arrow does work.
Three are enough.
In fact, He only needs one.
He took an arrow and put it on the bowstring. Ling had never learned Kyudo before, but it didn't make any difference whether she had learned it or not.
Now it's not just Lingye who's holding the bow, and it's not Kyudo who's making Him bend the bow.
The bow was like a full moon, and its momentum was like a rainbow, this was what Hinata saw.
But the mysterious other side that ordinary people cannot see is the light condensed by the magic-breaking arrow that is far brighter than the bright moon.
Divine power, planetary will, whatever you want to call it.
Just a movement of drawing a bow, looking down from the sky above the planet, the entire atmosphere was stirred, with wind and clouds rising.
Because the one who pulled the arrow was not Oshima Reiya, nor Ultraman Gaia.
It is Gaia, the will of the planet!
There are countless parallel universes, and almost every universe has Earth. Gaia is the will of the Earth, and the will of countless planets called Earth.
The arrow shot out, as if the sky was torn apart. It was clearly silent, but it made everything silent.
The big sound is loud, the elephant is invisible.
With one arrow, the horn on Oneidewu's head was broken off. That was the monster's most important weakness.
But the purpose of this arrow is far more than that. Breaking the monster's horn can be done with just one light skill, without mobilizing a large force.
The monster's horn is just a medium, a coordinate.
After the arrow pierced through Oneidewu's horn, its force remained unabated and it disappeared into an invisible place.
Its trajectory is not in space, nor in time, but in the concept of cause and effect.
Using this monster as a fruit, search for the source that created it and brought it to Earth.
Millions of light years away, in the depths of the universe far beyond the Milky Way, there is a place where time and space are distorted.
The Baltans are waiting here.
After hunting the souls of the Faia people, it went on to hunt the souls of some powerful creatures in the universe.
It is a cosmic ninja that never makes a fuss. It quietly hunts some well-known races in the universe, and the deaths of those powerful creatures do not cause any waves.
These souls are the nourishment for the master's awakening.
Flexible crystals are extremely beautiful. They are the most valuable treasures in the universe and the best sacrifices to their masters.
But at a certain moment, a moment that even Planck time could not cut, an ordinary arrow appeared from nowhere.
It shattered the crystal that Baltan was about to present, and pierced into the distortion of endless darkness.
A roar of extreme pain was heard from the void.
The roar shattered the stars, and even Baltan could not bear it. He knelt down in pain, covering his auditory organs.
The only thing it knew was that its master, the great legion commander Zoda, had been seriously injured.
The demon that was once sealed by countless warriors from the Kingdom of Light, led by Father Ao, had all its pride shattered by an arrow from millions of light years away.
Chapter 289 The Lost Planet
A roar in the universe shattered the stars, but no one knew about it because it was too remote and far away.
Both space and time are distorted here, as if it is a garbage can for errors produced by the universe.
If the universe is a program, this is where the accumulated errors of the program's execution converge.
The accumulation of thousands and tens of thousands of years finally overflowed and materialized into Zhouda.
As long as the universe is running, mistakes will always happen, so Zeus is immortal.
One reincarnation lasts for every fifty thousand years.
Now should be the time for Joda to be born.
It is not so powerful that no one can control it, but beings like King Ao who truly stand at the top of the universe mostly master certain rules of the universe, and they will not take action against Zoda.
Zoda, the communicator of the will of the universe.
Balance is the rule; protection is the rule; miracles are the rule; and the mistakes of the universe are also a rule.
Tiny distortions and errors accumulate into huge amounts and require regular reckoning.
The catastrophe that occurs every 50,000 years should be overcome by the civilizations in the universe themselves. Such a rule should not be broken.
But this time, Zoda's birth encountered changes.
An arrow that should not exist. Independent of time and space, it is shot out along the line of cause and effect.
So whether it's one meter or millions of light years, it means the same thing to the arrow.
The moment the arrow was shot, King Ao had already discovered that he might be able to stop it, or he might not be able to.
But He did stretch out His hand at first, but it stopped in mid-air, as if He was thinking something.
In this moment of pause, the arrow has already hit the target.
So the hand had to be put down again.
The Ancient One stood on the King's Star, looked at the endless void and sighed.
He knew that the one who shot the arrow was certainly not the little girl on Earth, nor was it the giant named Ultraman Gaia who was born from the ray of light and imitated the image of the warrior of the Land of Light.
Those are all "small ones".
There are countless parallel universes, and the Earth exists in almost every universe, so that there are endless Earths and Gaia, as if it was the destiny determined at the beginning of the world.
The rules of the universe should not be broken, but if a being outside the rules occasionally overturns the table, what can He do?
Of course I forgive you.
Fortunately, Gaia knew his limits. The arrow seriously injured Zoda, but did not kill him. Although it would not be more difficult for him than to kill a stink bug.
Zoda will still be born, but the time will be delayed by a few years.
It might cause serious damage to one's vitality, but not being wiped out is already a blessing. It was just a warning.
A fly is always buzzing in your ear, recklessly provoking the immortal, so it is natural that you would be angry.
King Ao could fully understand and accept this slight degree of violation of the rules.
I just hope that Zoda can learn his lesson, truly understand where this warning comes from, and stop overestimating his own capabilities and provoking the Earth.
King Ao's concerns are justified.
Because Zoda really didn't know who attacked him. The attack almost scared him to death, but he couldn't even find where the attack came from.
Its line of sight can span several light years, but there is nothing within its sight.
A short moment spanned millions of light years, which was completely beyond Zoda's understanding.
Earth, Ling also put down the bow.
No one on this planet knew what had just happened, not even Ace. He only saw Lingye shoot an arrow and break the monster's horn.
Whether it is a ghost in mythology or this super beast in reality, the horn is the most important source of power.
Having lost his horn, Onidewu became extremely weak.
Ace lifted the monster and slammed it to the ground. The earthquake shook the mountain.
Ace wanted to continue fighting, but when he got into a fighting stance, he found that the monster was already dead.
He wasn't pretending to be dead, he was really dead. It was simple, as if all the feelings that had been brewing before were gone.
I was beaten badly before, but now I easily defeated the opponent. I always feel a little unhappy. Not unhappy about winning, but unhappy about losing to such a monster before.
Ace maintained his fighting stance for a moment, but finally let it go.
Kuiper Belt
The first generation and Seven came here. The Kuiper Belt is a meteorite belt outside the solar system, outside the orbit of Neptune. From meteorites to asteroids, it is very lively here.
"The Monster Cemetery has not been stable recently. Some of the destroyed monsters have shown signs of waking up."
"It's really the undead, that guy Zoda."
It is the number one enemy of the Space Guard in recent times. Although no one has seen Zoda in person, its shadow is everywhere.
For the Ultra Brothers, that is definitely not an enemy that can be easily defeated.
Ultra Father said that Zoda had already targeted the Earth and asked them to establish a defense line near the solar system.
Of course, this is indeed the main reason.
The first generation knew there was another reason. Ace's mission was about to be completed, and when he returned to report, the captain planned to let Taro come to Earth for training.
It has to be said that Taro is indeed very talented. Compared to his brothers, Taro can be said to be the one with the most outstanding talent.
But he had no combat experience. Unlike his brothers, Taro had never experienced any war.
Even since he was born, Taro has never left the Kingdom of Light. As the son of the captain and O'Mother, it is natural for him to worry.
Coming to the solar system to establish a defense line is actually a preparation to escort Taro who comes for training.
The Captain and Mother Ultra have always taken care of everyone in the past, so none of the Ultra Brothers in the Guard Team are dissatisfied with this arrangement and are willing to take care of Taro, their youngest brother.
Unspoken to each other.
