Zither Emperor Chapter 260 Chapter 76 The Mediocre War Behemoth Part 1

260: Chapter 76: The Mediocre War Behemoth (Part 1) 260: Chapter 76: The Mediocre War Behemoth (Part 1) Zi looked at the newly awakened Ye Yinzhu, and rarely showed a hint of a smile, “Good to see you awake.

Haiyang, you’re also tired.

Go back and rest.

I’ll take care of Yin Zhu here.

Sura is already exhausted from the ordeal, and now that Yin Zhu is awake, you can rest easily.”

Haiyang was very perceptive.

She could tell Zi had something to say to Ye Yinzhu.

She nodded obediently, carefully propped Ye Yinzhu against the tent, pulled up his blanket again, and then crawled out of the tent.

Once Haiyang left, only Ye Yinzhu and Zi remained in the tent, looking at each other, both sinking into a brief silence.

“Yin Zhu, I’m sorry.” Zi slowly lowered his head, his eyes revealing a pained expression.

Ye Yinzhu frowned slightly and said, “Why are you saying this?

You’ve done nothing to apologize for.”

Zi’s facial muscles twitched slightly, “If it weren’t for me wanting to find the War Behemoth, none of this would have happened, and you wouldn’t have…”

Ye Yinzhu smiled faintly and said, “e on, let’s not be so formal between us brothers, alright?

Actually, I’m not as injured as you think.”

Zi was taken aback and said, “What do you mean?

Giving half of your life to me, isn’t that a serious injury?

My life is because of you.

There’s even a part of your blood flowing in my body!”

Ye Yinzhu suddenly realized and said, “No wonder I feel so thirsty.

It turns out to be because of blood loss.

Blood can be regenerated.

In fact, the biggest toll was on my life force, not the blood.

Zi, look.” Since he’d awakened, he’d recovered some strength, barely lifting his right hand to show the green bracelet that was originally green.

Green Silk had lost its crystal-clear luster, looking somewhat dull without the halo of light swirling around it.

Ye Yinzhu said, “Actually, it was Green Silk that truly saved us.

When I heard that strange voice, I naturally made a choice.

Then your body merged with mine.

At that moment, I felt everything from our spirits, spiritual imprints, Douqi, spiritual power, to our physical strength merging into one.

But then, my life force was rapidly declining.

It was Green Silk—in that moment, it transferred its vast life force to me, allowing me to sustain such a drain.

In our Zhu Sect, Green Silk is already a Divine Artifact rank existence.

The life force within it is incredibly vast.

After this incident, it might take a long time for Green Silk to recover.

When I get the chance, I’ll find a place rich in natural essence to help it heal.

With its help, my life force was also consumed, but far less than you believe.

It’s just that we won’t have the same luck next time.”

Zi listened somewhat blankly to Ye Yinzhu’s explanations, his guilt-ridden heart feeling slightly relieved.

“Yin Zhu, it seems even I don’t fully understand this Equal Life Contract.

From what has happened, our contract seems to have life-sharing capabilities.

We’ll indeed need to take much more care of each other from now on.”

Ye Yinzhu laughed and said, “Exactly!

No matter which of us dies, the other would unhesitatingly choose to revive him.

At this rate, when we truly face death, it’s likely we’ll both be finished together.

Really, we were lucky this time.”

Zi sighed and said, “It’s all thanks to your Super Divine Artefact that this time, I truly realized how terrifying a rank Ten Demon Beast is.

After we return, I’ll continue my cultivation and strive to evolve successfully as soon as possible.

As long as I reach adulthood, we won’t have trouble facing a situation like this again.”

A light flashed in Ye Yinzhu’s eyes as he remembered the events of that day, “Zi, our luck wasn’t just in me having a Super Divine Artefact.

In fact, it was both of us together who repelled the enemy.”

“Oh?

But at that time, I had already…”

Ye Yinzhu said, “The events of that day actually unfolded like this.

After your body fused with mine, because I had acquired all of your strength and abilities, the power I possessed at that time was equivalent to the sum of both of us, whether it was spiritual power or Douqi, both reached an unprecedented level.

Before that happened, I entered a special state, one of excessive grief due to your death, as if the power inside me was pletely burning, with only killing on my mind.

After our bodies fused, that feeling of slaughter disappeared, but the energy inside me continued to burn, burning the energy of both of us.

This situation continued until our bodies separated again, and the power was divided back into two.”

Zi pondered and said, “What you’re describing is demonization.

Because of my ‘death’, your body entered a state of demonization which caused that situation.

Once demonized, one will lose their true self for a short time but will also possess far greater power than usual, even by several multiples.

And it seems that the energy produced by our fusion made the negative effects of demonization disappear, while the overdraft and power-boosting effects remained.”

Ye Yinzhu nodded, “Exactly, it was because of that, I was able to succeed later.

Having the power of both of us, coupled with the boost from the demonization effect, my power reached an unimaginable level.

Ever since the Desolate Dragon Yin’s Zither was successfully created by me, it has always been hidden inside my heart.

At that time I had no concerns, if I couldn’t defeat the War Behemoth, everyone would die, and even if you were revived, it would be useless, so I thought of it, and it really worked.

In that instant, I actually managed to summon the Desolate Dragon Yin’s Zither, a Super Divine Artefact.

But that simple act of summoning almost pletely drained the peak energy from my body.”

Zi was shocked, “That terrifying?”

Ye Yinzhu nodded firmly, “I don’t know how strong I was at that time, but it felt like I had exceeded An Qi, possibly at the level of a Ninth Rank Zi rank being, after all, it was the fusion of the two of us, plus the boost from the demonization!

Yet, I was still unable to play the Desolate Dragon Yin’s Zither.

My hands simply couldn’t pluck the strings.”

Zi said in surprise, “But you later…”

Ye Yinzhu’s gaze fell on his arm, and with a slight smile, he said, “That’s thanks to Shan and Lei, they helped me.

These two little fellas released their Elemental Bullets when it mattered most, into my arms.

At that moment, I finally had the power to pluck the strings, which was the physical strength from your body fused with all the power of Shan and Lei.

In fact, I also wanted to play a piece on the zither, to see what effect the Super Divine Artefact would have, but I couldn’t.

All I could do at the time was to trigger Explosive Reverberate one by one through the seven strings.”

Zi looked at Ye Yinzhu dumbfounded, “Just that?

Do you know?

Your seven Explosive Reverberates have severely damaged Glacis’s Spiritual Imprint.

Moreover, you released seven Forbidden Curses!”

Hearing Zi’s words, Ye Yinzhu couldn’t help but burst into laughter, “Zi, I never thought that you would be fooled too.

That fool Glacis was actually intimidated into submission by us.”

“Ah?” Zi looked at Ye Yinzhu blankly, “Intimidated into submission?

You’re not going to tell me that those seven Forbidden Curses…”

“Are fake,” Ye Yinzhu said with a grin.

“Do you think I have the power to cast seven Forbidden Curses at once?

Let alone me, I suspect that even the seven people from Faran’s Seventh Tower can’t instantly cast seven different Forbidden Curses.

Of course, I can’t say that those seven Forbidden Curses are entirely fake; they can be considered a prelude to the spells, but that’s all they are.

When I triggered the seven Explosive Reverberates, I noticed that Glacis’s Spiritual Imprint seemed to be on the brink of not holding up, but by that time, Shan and Lei’s energy was exhausted, and my own power had been pletely drained by the Desolate Dragon Yin’s Zither, making it impossible to produce any more notes.

All I could do was barely control it with the energy I had initially poured into the Desolate Dragon Yin’s Zither to prevent it from disappearing.

At first, I also thought that I had released seven Forbidden Curses, but soon I realized, those curses were just a facade with no real offensive power.

Even if they had struck, for Glacis, it would have been just a tickle.

Otherwise, how do you think I controlled the falling and pausing of those seven Forbidden Curses?

I don’t have that much power!”

Listening to Ye Yinzhu, Zi’s expression turned odd, a smile gradually appeared at the corner of his mouth, “It seems that Glacis really did lose unjustly.”

Ye Yinzhu smiled and said, “It’s not quite unjust, who asked him to never have seen a Super Divine Artefact before?

Frankly, I regret a bit now, making the Desolate Dragon Yin’s Zither so abnormal back then.

Even if I later achieve the strength of a Ninth Rank Zi rank, I probably still won’t be able to use it.

Could it be necessary to break through the limits of the Zi rank to reach a new realm before I can use this Super Divine Artefact?”

Zi said, “Actually, this is quite normal.

The more powerful the weapon, the stronger the power required to wield it.

Otherwise, if even a child could wield a Divine Artifact, wouldn’t the world be in chaos?

A powerful Divine Artifact should only belong to the truly strong so that the balance of our world is not disrupted.”

Ye Yinzhu nodded, pressing his right hand to his chest, “I hope one day I can truly use it.

Zi, has your power bee even stronger?”

Zi nodded, “In the battle with Glacis, I broke through my bottleneck and evolved to rank 8.

With the sacrifice of his Spirit’s Soul Fire, I broke through again and am now on the verge of rank 9.” (To be continued, please visit for more chapters and to support the author, support genuine reading!)
