"Do not."
He ignored Fujiwara no Moeko's surprise and confusion, even her slightly disappointed look, and refused directly.
"The use of spiritual power is probably not suitable for you."
He has seen it.
After nearly a thousand years of wandering, Fujiwara no Mokou developed fighting instincts similar to those of a monster.
In this case, the human way of fighting might no longer be suitable for her to learn.
Her brain instinctively resisted "reason".
"Since I've already made a mistake, I might as well make it all the way."
"Her soul is already stable, so there is no risk of her falling into the state of a monster."
PS: The sixth update, additional update.
Thanks to [Fei Fan], [. ], [Gili], and [Enji] for their monthly ticket support.
That, although the protagonist does not know much about the East.
But he still knew some people who were more out of the circle.
For example, Flandre (thanks to Saint Spear).
For example, old lady purple eoht@#$%sa.
In addition, the currency of the system store is not compatible with real money.
Chapter 41: The Power of My Thoughts
"The training method of monsters?"
Nanxing's words aroused great interest in Fujiwara no Momoko.
"How to say?"
She stood up and straightened her chest, looking very confident.
She herself also felt that she might really be more suitable for the monster's training method.
After all, in the past thousand years, she has been imitating monsters.
On the contrary, it is humans - if it were not for the weak trace of consciousness as a human being still existing in her heart, she would probably have been completely isolated from the word "human" by now.
However, looking at the confident Fujiwara Mokou, Nanxing had to tell her a very unfortunate news.
"I do not know either."
He answered honestly.
As a human being, how could he possibly know how monsters practice?
But that's not a problem.
Because on this ship, there happens to be a real monster.
Although she is very young.
But her background is not small.
You should know a thing or two about the cultivation methods of monsters.
……
In the cabin.
Ibuki Suika was lying on a wooden board that could barely be called a bed, sipping her wine happily.
In front of her, there were a lot of lively seafood, which made the cabin, which was brand new not long ago, full of fishy smell.
But she herself enjoyed it very much.
Eating fresh blood and drinking unlimited liquor - this kind of life was so dreamy that it made her feel "I am so happy here that I don't want to go back to my hometown".
In comparison, what kind of life had she lived before?
In the dark hell, drinking wine that tasted as light as water, the only two entertainment activities every day were watching ghosts fighting and bickering with Hua Shan.
"It's so cool——"
She took another sip of her liquor.
Then move the gourd slightly downwards, letting the remaining wine fall on yourself.
This is of course an extremely extravagant and wasteful act.
But she is a ghost, a monster that does all kinds of evil.
Accusing her of doing something bad... that's not much different from praising her.
And this is exactly what Ibuki Suika wanted to tell Nanxing and Fujiwara Mohong, about how monsters become stronger:
"We."
"You become stronger by doing bad things."
"Besides, the more bad things you do, the stronger you become!"
……
"Doing bad things will make you stronger?"
The answer given by Ibuki Suika was unexpected.
Faced with this unexpected answer, Nanxing and Fujiwara no Mokou also showed different reactions.
"Hey, kid."
"Are you kidding me?"
Fujiwara no Mokou, who doesn't like to use her brain, was very angry.
She reached out and rubbed Ibuki Suika's head hard, deliberately showing a very unhappy expression on her face, like a bad girl.
She thought she looked vicious.
Little did she know that this was exactly what Ibuki Suika wanted.
"Yes, yes, that's right there."
"More power."
She squinted her eyes and said with enjoyment.
Of course, being touched on the head is detrimental to the Ghost King's dignity.
But if the noble lady of the Fujiwara family takes the initiative to lower herself and come to tickle the Demon King... that's not impossible.
——Ibuki Suika understands Ah Q.
And at the same time, on the other side.
Nanxing fell into deep thought while repeating what Ibuki Suika said.
"Doing bad things makes you stronger?"
Did Ibuki Suika lie?
No, she didn't.
Because monsters themselves exist like this.
Born from darkness, they are born with the responsibility of spreading fear and despair.
And doing bad things is, of course, the best way to spread fear and despair.
"But it's not enough."
Nanxing thought again.
Because he knew that this was just superficial logic.
There must be a deeper core hidden in it.
But what is this kernel?
Nanxing thought about it again and again, but couldn't come up with an answer to this question.
——After all, there is still a huge gap between him and the monsters.
Humans can never guess what monsters are thinking.
So, in the end, he could only throw the question back to Ibuki Suika.
"What kind of bad things?"
he asked curiously.
The answer I got was an unexpected yet reasonable one.
"Of course it's the bad things I want to do!"
……
Do the bad things you want to do.
Be a free and unrestrained monster.
This is not just Ibuki Suika's idea.
It is the common ideal of all monsters.
Chaos and disorder - these are the common characteristics of monsters.
Doing whatever you want and being lawless is what every monster pursues throughout his life.
There's nothing to blame.
As I said, they are born bad guys, and scolding them is the same as praising them.
But after some careful thinking, Nanxing finally discovered the truth hidden in this "doing whatever one wants".
"I see."
He understood why monsters could become stronger by doing bad things.
"Because the monster itself is the product of fear."
Human beings’ fear of the sun gave rise to the sun monster, Yatagarasu.
Human beings' fear of monks gave rise to the monk monster, Crow Tengu.
Human beings’ fear of falling into water gave rise to river monsters, water ghosts.
...Various monsters are born from different fears, and gain power by creating and spreading similar fears.
In the final analysis, this method of becoming stronger can actually be summarized in one sentence:
"I think I can."
Yes, I think so.
This is also the biggest difference between the cultivation methods of monsters and humans:
It is also spiritual energy. Miko and Onmyoji among humans convert this spiritual energy into spiritual power and then perform various methods.
These methods may seem mysterious, but in essence they are the same as how humans make tools, which is a rational use of energy.
But monsters are different.
They also cannot explain the principles behind the emergence of these spiritual energies. They simply use these forces according to instinct to spread despair and fear.
The main theme is "I think" and "I'm thinking".
If we go deeper:
"to be honest."
"Humans' use of spiritual power is objective and idealistic, and needs to be done step by step."
"The use of demonic power by monsters is subjective and idealistic. They get whatever they want."
"And the way gods practice... is probably the same as that of monsters, and is also idealistic."
"It's just that they only have faith and hope in their hearts, not fear and despair."
