Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?-Chapter 1088 - 1084: Incense

The people eating were amused by Shen Siyuan and Tang Tang’s synchronized movements.

"It’s just thunder,"

Jiang Yingxue smiled and shook her head, a hint of surprise in her tone, "But it’s already past the autumn equinox, and thunderstorms are rare during this season."​

In ancient times, it was believed that thunder was caused by the booming yang energy; after the autumn equinox, yin energy began to flourish, ceasing thunderstorms.

That’s why Jiang Yingxue found it strange.

Yet this pair of ’divinely synchronized’ actions did not stop there.

Shen Siyuan and Tang Tang exchanged a glance, as if receiving a mysterious signal, stood up together, and quickly ran towards the balcony. ​

Tang Tang’s short legs couldn’t keep pace with Shen Siyuan’s long strides; seeing the distance widen, she exclaims "Oh!", agile like a Little Monkey, she leapt forward, flying in mid-air, clinging steadily to Shen Siyuan’s waist, hanging like a little ornament behind him. ​

"Pfft~ Cough cough..." ​

Behind them, the sudden scene caused everyone to cough repeatedly, mixed with suppressed laughter.

Shen Siyuan disregarded this, reaching out to catch Tang Tang from his back and held her in front, making great strides to the balcony. ​

"Oh~ Oh~" ​

Held in his arms, Tang Tang excitedly wriggled her little rear end, pointing towards the distant horizon with her little finger, as if seeing something incredible in her bright eyes. ​

"Okay, okay, I saw it... and I smelled it..."

In the distance, skyward, countless intertwined golden and red waves of incense-fire Wish Power surged towards Bin Hai City like tidal waves.

That thunderstrike shattered the endless incense-fire of the colossal Guanyin Statue standing above the sea! ​

The incense-fire Wish Power, amassed through countless years and gathering numerous worshippers’ prayers, now surged forward like unbridled horses transformed into vast red waves, rolling in with formidable momentum, awe-inspiring. ​

"What’s going on? Why are you in such a rush?"​

The crowd gradually reached the balcony, curiously gazing at the sky.

But to their eyes, the sky remained as blue as washed, cloudless with no signs of anything unusual. ​

Only Shen Siyuan and Tang Tang could see it clearly; the sky was already covered by vast red light, incense-red clouds like burning embers stretched across the entire heavens. ​

Shen Siyuan understood within.

In an era where Divine was not manifest, the incense-fire Wish Power was like rootless duckweed, only able to gather around the statue, slowly dissipating over time.

Previously, he had come into contact with incense-fire Wish Power but found himself unable to absorb it; firstly, incense-fire comes with causality, accepting it requires fulfilling wishes, and secondly, Wish Power is a collective will of beings, depending more profoundly on Divine, easily manipulated by it, becoming puppets in worshippers’ hearts.

Hence, being unable to absorb it then, he did not pursue it further.

But now, as the surging waves of incense-fire Wish Power approached, Shen Siyuan felt his body like a dried sponge, crazily absorbing these Wish Powers without wasting a single speck, ultimately merging into his body, a warm and vast force circulating within. ​

"Oh?" ​

Tang Tang, the only one who could see this magnificent spectacle, surprisingly touched her little belly, seemingly puzzling why the "red light" didn’t enter her stomach.

At this moment, Duoduo’s voice arose from the neighboring balcony, with a hint of anxiety: "Brother, what’s going on?"​

Shen Siyuan turned his head and saw the incense-fire Wish Power fall on Duoduo like fireflies, penetrating her body, enveloping her in a layer of ethereal red light, like a Divine descending into the world.

No, Duoduo was originally appointed as the Yin God. ​

In a moment of realization, Shen Siyuan recalled this morning’s conversation with Xiao Yue.

The Netherworld rebooted, rules had changed, transitioning from autonomy to Divine governance. ​

"I see, I see..." Shen Siyuan realized suddenly. ​

Turning to send Tang Tang in his arms back to Ruan Hongzhuang, he urgently uttered: "I have something to do, I’ll be right back."​

Without waiting for people to react, Shen Siyuan’s body transformed into a dazzling stream of light, soared skyward, slicing through the sky at speed so rapid only leaving a trail.

Simultaneously, his voice echoed: "Duoduo, follow up~"​

Upon hearing, Duoduo immediately swept up a Yin Wind to chase after.

The previously intangible Yin Wind, now dyed with a layer of ethereal red light from the incense-fire Wish Power, leaving a striking red streak across the sky. ​

Two streaks of light, one ahead of the other, soared into the clouds, astonishing the people on the balcony into wide-eyed astonishment, all stopping to gaze upwards, faces full of shock.

This was the first time Shen Siyuan had so openly displayed Divine Skills before others, rising with a stance akin to a Divine descending. ​

Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi gazed at the increasingly distant stream of light, eyes full of fascination and pride, their spirits swayed unceasingly. ​

Held in Ruan Hongzhuang’s embrace, Tang Tang, seeing Shen Siyuan and Duoduo flying away, anxiously cried out "Oh~", twisting her small body with force, suddenly sprang upwards, unexpectedly breaking free from Ruan Hongzhuang’s arms, flying up into the air. ​

"Careful."

Startled, Ruan Hongzhuang reacted quickly, grabbing her ankle, pulling her back from the air securely. ​

"Hm~ Hm~" ​

Tang Tang frowned unhappily, puffing her cheeks, glaring at Ruan Hongzhuang, her little face full of grievance and anger, as if accusing her of ruining her plan to fly.

The stream of light broke through the sky, Shen Siyuan hovered above Bin Hai City, below were densely packed buildings, and in the distance, the sea stretched boundlessly.

The vast incense-fire Wish Power surged ceaselessly towards him, the air filled with the rich fragrance of sandalwood and Wish Power intertwined. ​

Shen Siyuan thought inwardly, forming a finger formula, the Ten Thousand Soul Banner instantly emerged from his Sea of Consciousness hovering before him.

The Purple Jade Banner Face fluttered in the wind, adorned with shimmering dots like stars in the night sky, marks left from previously repairing the banner face with Merit, where the Merit Golden Light fused with the Purple Jade Banner Face, adding a touch of sanctity.

The originally cracked banner stick was also completely repaired, a golden thread winding around the ink jade-like banner stick, resembling a golden dragon wrapped around a pillar.

The emergence of the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, seemingly transformed into a bottomless black hole, its Purple Jade Banner Face sparkled.

The incense-fire Wish Power surging towards Shen Siyuan instantaneously changed direction, like rushing rivers converging into the sea, furiously absorbed by the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

Red-golden Wish Power waves collided with the banner face, stirring up a skyful of glowing fragments, the ’stars’ on the banner face becoming more vibrant.

The golden dragon winding the banner stick seemed awakened, the entire banner slightly trembled, greedily devouring the endless incense-fire.

"It’s no more than a long whale drinking water." Shen Siyuan thought to himself, his fingers forming the formula never pausing, with a thought, the suction of the Ten Thousand Soul Banner abruptly surged.

The originally sky-covering incense-red cloud was torn into a massive whirlpool, its center directly pointing at the banner face, countless Wish Powers like tangible streams being continuously sucked into the banner, at a speed beyond the naked eye.

And as the Wish Power surged in, the dots of gold on the banner face grew increasingly brilliant, the winding dragon more agile, a faint red glow emanated along its body, resonating with the incense-fire Wish Power.

And standing beside, Duoduo also received numerous benefits, countless incense-fires, consumed into her belly.
