Chapter 6: Narugami Taisha Shrine
"What the hell are you doing?"
"Master Palace Master, who knows that there are monsters bred in amber? Aside from the races, aren't all other monsters bred by the earth veins? I've never heard of a monster bred in amber."
"Hmm~ He seems to be awake, let's go check it out."
"I seem to be stupid, what should I do?"
"Look at me and say one, two, three, three, two, one."
"Don't glare at me, I didn't mean it."
Ren Lian Lingyi opened his eyes and looked at the bustling group of priestesses in front of him.
The one leading the group was a white-furred fox-eared shrine maiden wearing a red and white shrine maiden outfit, and was a shrine maiden that completely stood on XP.
His body twitched twice, but he still couldn't move. He wanted to speak, but it was impossible. This made Ren Lian Lingyi glare at the witch who disturbed his birth.
If the energy of the earth veins had accelerated the integration at this time, he might have been able to move earlier. Instead of being like now, only his eyes can move.
"This body and soul are out of harmony. Tsk tsk, so pitiful." The witch with white hair and fox ears, who should be called Gong Si, said.
Then the priestess led the other priestesses in performing a ritual, and a force from the earth veins rushed into Ren Lian Lingyi's body. This guy could actually manipulate the energy of the earth veins like this. What kind of monster is he?
You have to know that in the previous place where the earth veins were blocked, he could only connect with the earth veins in amber to mobilize the earth vein energy to a certain extent. He could not do what the other party did, which was to mobilize the earth vein energy directly through rituals.

With this earth energy, Ren Lian Lingyi was finally able to move, and his various body functions also obtained basic operating energy and could move.
"My name is Ren Lian Lingyi. Thank you so much, miko."
"It seems that you are in a clear mind." The leading white-haired fox-eared priestess shook her white tail and said.
"According to the saying, I should be a Tsukumangami born from the earth veins." Ren Lian Lingyi said.
"But my situation is different from that of ordinary Tsukumogami. I still maintain a certain level of spiritual awareness in the earth veins, so I finally chose to accelerate my own growth on the amber where the earth veins are stagnant."
" You can maintain your spiritual consciousness in the earth veins? That's amazing. And do you know who you are?"
"It's just a small skill." Ren Lian Lingyi said, "As for who I am, I know that of course, but the past is the past, and rebirth is a new life. I will not choose those things that disturb people."
"You are quite open-minded. That's a huge benefit." The witch at the side couldn't help but interrupt.
"Little guy, you probably don't have anywhere to go right now, so you should stay at Narukami Taisha for now and learn some necessary things. Besides, my Narukami Taisha nominally manages all the monsters in Inazuma, so you also need to obey the management of Narukami Taisha."
"Otherwise, it's just a wild monster in the countryside. If it doesn't know the rules and is beaten and killed, no one will pity it."
After saying this, the witch with white fur and fox ears led the other witches away chattering.
Ren Lian Lingyi also stood up from the bed. His current height was shorter than in his previous life. After all, he had not fully grown when his body was shaped, so he was still a teenager. However, he was also about 1.78 meters tall, which was not short.
I moved my body around and felt some delay in my movements. This body was just a newborn after all. Although it could already carry out daily activities with the help of the other party's rituals, the delay was really high.
However, this seems to be the limit of what the strange earth energy can reach.
Ren Lian Lingyi could sense that there was still a large amount of earth vein energy contained in his body, but although this earth vein energy was still subtly changing his physique, it had no effect on improving his operating memory.
He moved his body and was a little unsteady, but fortunately, he had a lot of experience in walking, so he walked more and more smoothly, and it only took him an hour to be able to walk like a normal person.
But I still can't run, I can only walk.
It is also worth mentioning that the clothes on Ren Lian Lingyi are not the clothes he wore when he was alive, nor are they the monster robes he brought with him when he was born. Instead, they were changed for him by the priestesses.
This was only discovered by Ren Lian Lingyi after he sensed his own monster robes while wandering around the room.
Weighing the big bird in his hand, Ren Lian Lingyi thought helplessly that he had already been seen naked by these priestesses.
After Ren Lian Lingyi started moving his body, the sound of footsteps appeared in his ears.
Ren Lian Lingyi quickly sat down.
But his efforts were in vain, because the one who came was not the priestess standing on his XP, but just a few ordinary low-level priestess. As for why he knew this, it was naturally because these priestess used honorifics when addressing him.
Inazuma Common Sense LV3 (10.0/100) told him that only subordinates use honorifics when facing their superiors.
He is a newborn little monster, and the shrine maidens of some status in Narukami Taisha Shrine probably won't use honorifics to address him.
"Mr. Renlian, Master Kitsai-gū asked us to take you to dinner."
"Wait a minute, it will be ready soon." Ren Lian Lingyi said.
Renren Lingyi asked several shrine maidens for information about the Narukami Taisha Shrine. Most of his knowledge about Inazuma was from Renren Island, and he only knew a little about the information about the Narukami Taisha Shrine, but not much.
By asking several shrine maidens, Ren Lian Lingyi also learned that "he" had been dead for more than a hundred years. About seventy years ago, "his" tablet was found to be spiritual, so it was invited into the Mingjin Taisha Shrine by a shrine maiden who passed by to perform a small pulling.
As the name suggests, Ming Shen Taisha is a shrine dedicated to Ming Shen. This shrine has always been led by Ming Shen's friend, the thousand-year-old demon Baichen Saigū. The Baichen clan is a fox clan, so Baichen Saigū is also called Kitsune Saigū.
The position of Kitsusaigu is the chief priest of Narujin Taisha Shrine.
The priestesses here usually call her "Palace Chief" or "Konosai Palace Chief".
It turns out that the woman standing on his XP is called Kitsuzai Palace, Ren Lian Lingyi thought.
The food at Narukami Taisha Shrine is not very high-end. It is better than what we ate in the village of Renren Island. It is not simply plain food, but it is not much better either, and it is far from being a gourmet meal.
However, there were mushroom dishes on the table. Ren Lian Lingyi felt the atmosphere of Ren Lian Island on them. It seemed that the mushroom industry of Ren Lian Island had indeed developed well in the past hundred years.
After dinner, several witches took him and some other little monsters to receive education.
Among the little monsters, there are winged Tengu, there are also double-horned demons, and of course there are more foxes and raccoons running around the shrine.
