Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence-Chapter 711 - 322 No Moon over Ying Island

Chapter 711: Chapter 322: No Moon over Ying Island Chapter 711: Chapter 322: No Moon over Ying Island Within the Sky High Plateau, the High Gods were either descendants of Izanagi and Izanami, possessing noble bloodlines of the Main God,

or they had unique origins and were conferred as local deities by Amaterasu Omikami,

or they were local deities who accrued faith over time through folktales and stories.

But among these revered gods, the Inari God Miketsu was particularly special.

She had no noble lineage, and her previous incarnation was merely an ordinary fox.

She became a High God only with the help of Amaterasu, who aided in spreading folk beliefs to secure her a seat in the pantheon.

From any perspective, it seemed that the Inari God Miketsu was unworthy of being a High God.

Yet, favored by Amaterasu, Miketsu briefly reached the Peak Stage of the High Gods, just one step away from the position of Main God, which greatly annoyed many self-proclaimed noble deities.

There were endless debates regarding Miketsu’s rumors, but only Miketsu knew clearly that she was favored by Amaterasu because she had grown up with Amaterasu, born of the Divine Tree, while she was still a naive and unknowing beast.

...

Although she had not yet gained intelligence and only had fragmented memories, she remembered a vague figure cultivating a rice field, planting the Divine Tree that birthed the Great Sun.

And it was because of this vague cause-and-effect relationship, not even clear to Miketsu herself, that she was highly favored by Amaterasu, who even nearly pushed her onto the Main God’s seat.

When Amaterasu reigned over the Sky High Plateau, the bond of cause and effect with her was the most powerful talisman, even compelling Izanagi and Izanami to show deference.

But as Amaterasu suddenly went into seclusion, this very bond of cause and effect turned Miketsu into a thorn in Izanagi’s side, the nail in his eye.

Izanagi had sought to trouble Miketsu several times, only for her to quietly deflect each attempt, but he stealthily usurped the folk faith she controlled, nearly causing her to fall from her pantheon seat.

Miketsu thought that her concessions would persuade Izanagi to temporarily abandon his designs against her, only to later realize how naive she had been.

After Takemikazuchi angered Shen Yuan, Izanagi took the opportunity to accuse Miketsu of wrongdoing, even wanting to kill Miketsu to provoke the other gods’ anger toward Shen Yuan.

If not for Shen Yuan seeing through Izanagi’s intentions and actively rescuing Miketsu, she might have already met her end in the Netherworld.

Following this event, Miketsu lost all will to retreat further, recognizing clearly that with her connection to Amaterasu, it was only a matter of time before Izanagi would cause trouble again.

She guarded the shrine hall of Amaterasu, awaiting her emergence from seclusion while simultaneously avoiding potential troubles from Izanagi.

Over these months, Miketsu tried tirelessly to call upon Amaterasu within the shrine hall, but to no avail, which gradually made her despair.

She understood that Izanagi must know some secrets regarding Amaterasu’s seclusion; otherwise, he would never have exposed his disloyalty.

Miketsu began to change her strategy, thinking of Shen Yuan, who had opposed Izanagi, and decided to seek his help.

But Izanagi had long since dispatched the gods to watch over Shen Yuan’s residence, and any rash contact would only leave Izanagi with leverage against her.

Not until today, when Takemikazuchi and White Impermanence clashed in Qimu City, attracting the attention of the deities of the Sky High Plateau.

Takemikazuchi’s own brother, the deity known as the Fire God Kagutsuchi, even advocated starting a war with the four High Gods but was stopped by another faction of deities.

The Sky High Plateau fell into chaos because of this brief skirmish, and Miketsu saw her chance.

She secretly transported her true form to the mortal world, manifesting her white fox form to negotiate a potential alliance with Shen Yuan.

However, the moment Miketsu stepped into the main hall of Falling Clouds Temple, the figure before her clad in white, like a celestial being, suddenly overlapped with the blurry image from her memories of the one who planted the Divine Tree.

The intense familiarity and the vaguely discernible profound cause and effect made Miketsu realize that the figure before her was none other than the Father of All Gods Gods, the one who saved Ying Island from peril and who personally bestowed the Divine Edict upon Amaterasu Omikami.

Overcome with surprise and joy, Miketsu could no longer maintain her composure and prostrated before Shen Yuan in her true form.

Shen Yuan glanced at Miketsu, who was bowing on the ground, with some surprise.

He had assumed that the little white fox from millennia ago would not remember, but to his astonishment, she retained some memories from before she had gained intellect.

“You actually remember,”

In just a few words, Shen Yuan affirmed Miketsu’s suspicions.

Even though she had already speculated, the admission from Shen Yuan’s own mouth still set off a tempest in Miketsu’s heart.

Previously, Noro Mai referred to Shen Yuan as the Father of All Gods, and the Sky High Plateau’s deities had assumed it to be a misunderstanding of the true meaning of an oracle from Amaterasu.

Thinking about it now, Amaterasu Omikami, who had ascended to the Heavenly Immortal Realm, must have foreseen the arrival of the Father of All Gods to Ying Island, and hence chose to issue the Divine Edict as a ruse to pacify the people.

There was truth in deception, and deception in truth; this move successfully misled Izanagi-no-Mikoto.

Only Miketsu, who had once witnessed the Father of All Gods, could discern the truth from the falsehoods.

Amid overwhelming emotions, Miketsu couldn’t help but speak:

“Your humble god failed to recognize Mount Tai and did not realize the identity of the Father of All Gods, nearly causing offense.

Please punish me, Your Majesty!”

“Rise.”

Shen Yuan waved his hand indifferently.
