Zither Emperor Chapter 644 Chapter 203 Undead Magic Part 1

644: Chapter 203: Undead Magic (Part 1) 644: Chapter 203: Undead Magic (Part 1) “Teacher, please tell me, I will definitely work hard at my cultivation,” Ye Yinzhu put aside all other thoughts in his mind and listened attentively to Phil Jackson’s teachings.

“Yin Zhu, do you know what Undead Magic is?

Or rather, what do you think Undead Magic is?” Phil Jackson did not seem to be in a hurry to impart specific cultivation methods to him.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Yinzhu said, “Undead Magic should be a type of Dark Demon Magic, right?

It controls the spirits of living beings after death, and even their bodies, to fight or to do other things through special magic incantations.”

“No, you are wrong.

Although what you’ve mentioned are some manifestations of Undead Magic, that is absolutely not the true nature of Undead Magic.”

Phil Jackson’s voice suddenly became serious, “I have told you before that Undead Magic originated from the study of spirits.

And what was the original purpose of studying spirits?

It was to resurrect dead loved ones, or to allow restless spirits to find peace.

It is only from there that it gradually developed.

In other words, like any other magic, Undead Magic exists to help make the world of humans better.

Before I teach you Undead Magic, you first need to understand this.

Only if you accept it from the bottom of your heart, will you be able to achieve something in Undead Magic.”

Ye Yinzhu’s heart chilled; he knew that Phil Jackson must have guessed his thoughts, “Yes, Teacher, my understanding of Undead Magic used to be too superficial.”

Phil Jackson sighed, “It’s not just you who think this way, your thoughts could pletely represent the majority, and that’s still putting it nicely.

There are even those who are terrified of Undead Magic.

In fact, it’s not unreasonable for people to fear and detest Undead Magic, as its manifestations can be quite shocking.

Alright, I’ll start to impart the mysteries of Undead Magic to you now.”

Ye Yinzhu’s spirits lifted, and he closed his eyes.

“Undead Magic is not simply one of the Dark Demon Magics.

More precisely, it can be seen as a product of the bination of Dark Demon Magic and Spiritual Magic, with a greater leaning towards Spiritual Magic.

It’s just that the souls of the undead or the dead spirits are more or less tainted with elements of the Dark Demon Attribute, hence they show some characteristics of Dark Demon Magic.

Your Zither Magic is a branch of Spiritual Magic, and you have also cultivated Spiritual Magic before, so culturing Undead Magic will yield twice the result with half the effort.”

“The first thing to understand in cultivating Undead Magic is the spirit, for Undead Magic itself is realized through the spirit.

The stronger the Undead Magic, the closer its connection to the spirit.

The ultimate goal of Undead Magic, the true purpose for Orthodox Necromancers in their cultivation, is not to mand those corpses, but to gain knowledge.”

“Gain knowledge?” Ye Yinzhu was greatly surprised, and vaguely, he felt as if Phil Jackson was opening a door in front of him that he had never explored before.

“A person is posed of both body and spirit, or rather, this applies to any living being.

The difference in the proportion between spirit and body results in different manifestations of life.

Humans are not the strongest among all creatures, but they possess an advantage that no other creatures have, and that is the balance between body and spirit.

To give a simple example, within the Dragon Clan, Metal Dragons are more inclined towards physical bat; they have powerful defensive and physical offensive powers.

Their essence leans towards the body.

While Silver Dragons are known as Magic Dragons, their achievements on a spiritual level far exceed their physical forms.

They naturally lean towards the spiritual aspect.”

Ye Yinzhu asked puzzledly, “But humans also have warriors and mages, doesn’t that mean that warriors cultivating Douqi lean towards physical development and mages towards spiritual development?”

Phil Jackson said, “What you’re speaking of is a result of nurture, while the balance I refer to is innate.

Think about it, aren’t Metal Dragons and Silver Dragons born with a predetermined development path?

Whereas humans, at birth, are like a blank slate, their development dependent on their own choices.

The mon understanding on the Continent today is that focusing solely on cultivating magic or martial skills can lead to greater achievements, while Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation will face the barrier of Magic Martial Limit and find it difficult to break through, let alone surpass those who specialize in a single path.

In fact, this idea is pletely wrong.”

Undoubtedly, the views expressed by Phil Jackson at this time were in many ways unconventional, and even revolutionary.

“Metal Dragons cultivate their bodies, Silver Dragons cultivate magic, this is all fine because they are starting from their own conditions.

But if humans truly want to bring out their full strength and potential, there is only one path.”

Ye Yinzhu did not speak, but his brain was pondering continuously, was Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation really the most correct choice for humans?

“Do you not believe it?” Phil Jackson said indifferently.

Ye Yinzhu shook his head and replied, “I don’t disbelieve what teacher said; it’s just that, since the birth of Douqi and magic, it seems that there has never been a powerhouse who reached an unparalleled level of strength through Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation in human history.

Although I myself practice both, if it weren’t for the foundation laid in childhood and the coincidences of later encounters, I wouldn’t have reached Zi rank.

I think my current cultivation speed must be much slower than that of someone who focuses on one single practice.”

Phil Jackson suddenly laughed, laughed heartily.

The laughter spread through the power of the spirit, causing a slight dizziness in Ye Yinzhu’s mind.

“Teacher, you…”

As the laughter subsided, Phil Jackson let out a long sigh, “Even a disciple as talented as you can fall into this misconception, let alone ordinary people.”

“Yes, you are right, in human history, there has never been a true powerhouse who achieved strength through Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation.

But that is because there hasn’t been a single person who cultivates both and reaches Ninth Rank Sub-God rank.

Do you know when I finally understood the truth that humans need balanced cultivation to reach the real limit?”

Ye Yinzhu shook his head blankly.

“It was when I became the number one expert in Faran, reaching the pinnacle of Ninth Rank Sub-god rank that I fully understood.

At that time, even that monster Sloan was already stronger than you are now.

It was only when I truly reached the peak that I realized how foolish the choices of humanity are.

Do you think I want to abandon my body to cultivate the White Witch Soul?

What is the point of being immune to physical attacks?

How about the extreme strength of the soul?

Can it pare with our own bodily existence?

No, it can’t.

Even if there’s only one in a thousand chance, I would never choose to abandon my body.

But do I have a choice?

No.”

Phil Jackson’s mood became visibly agitated.

After uttering the final word “no,” he fell silent for a full minute before continuing, “Both White Witch Soul and Black Witch Soul are extremely radical methods of cultivation, and could also be seen as the final fate of Faran Tower Masters.

Of course, that’s only if they reach Ninth Rank Sub-God rank before their five-hundredth birthday.

Not everyone can reach this peak.

No matter which attribute of magic one practices, in the end, all paths lead to the same destination.

Even if someone truly breaks through, the only thing that will survive is their spirit, what’s called Ascension of the Soul.

But Ascension of the Soul doesn’t make one a true god.”

Unable to resist, Ye Yinzhu interjected, “Then does that mean there has never been a god in our world?”

Phil Jackson answered, “No, there have been.

According to historical records, there have been at least two true gods in our world, and they were gods in every sense—of both body and soul.

They were pletely transcendent of ordinary life forms.”

“Who were they?” Ye Yinzhu asked in surprise.

Phil Jackson replied, “Interestingly enough, both gods have an inseparable connection with your Eastern Dragon.

Do you know what the realm of gods is?

It’s not the world-ending power that ordinary people imagine.

The standard for being a god is creation.

The two gods that appeared in history, one is the Divine Eastern Dragon King, who created your people of Dong Long and its history.

The other is the Queen Demon Mother, who created the Abyss Mother Monster clan.

The great holy war of the past was a true battle of gods.

This secret is one of the biggest secrets within Faran’s Seventh Tower.

How few people know that what they see as the sacred land of Faran is actually just an entrance to a seal.

Faran’s existence isn’t about being the ruler of the continent, but about guarding that entrance connected to another dimension, protecting the right of humans to survive.

If Milan Empire and you think that Faran’s ten-year closure is a conspiracy with Landias, then you are greatly mistaken.

Faran’s closure can only be for one reason, that the seal is loosening.

It requires the efforts of all Seven Tower Masters of Faran and all the mages of Faran to maintain this seal, to protect the right of humanity to continue surviving.

This is why Faran recruits a large number of mages, being the sacred place for mages.”

“The seal is loosening?

Are you saying that the Demon Mother might return to the human world?” Ye Yinzhu was filled with surprise after hearing Phil Jackson’s words.

The teacher before him was clearly one of the most authoritative on Faran’s situation and most knowledgeable about its secrets.

It seemed he had even forgotten about his own cultivation in Undead Magic for a moment.
