649: Chapter 205: Battle of the Spirit, Giant Divine Dragon (Part 1)_1 649: Chapter 205: Battle of the Spirit, Giant Divine Dragon (Part 1)_1 As one of the most powerful Divine Beasts of the ancient times, Nox’s strength was considered unique among the Divine Beasts of the Ryuzakinus Continent, on par with the Amethyst Behemoth.
Even Zi’s ancestors had perished at the hands of Nox, which attests to its formidable power.
By a twist of fate, Ye Yinzhu had sealed Nox within his own Desolate Dragon Yin’s Zither, using the Essence of Dragon Soul Wood for the body, important ponents of the Giant Divine Dragon’s bones, teeth, and horns for the zither’s structure, tendons from the Seven Dragon Kings for the strings, and the addition of Nox’s spirit, had created this Super Divine Artefact.
Once Nox was infused into the Ancient Zither by Ye Yinzhu through the Transplanting Flowers and Trees Technique, it had lost all consciousness, only the power of the Spirit and some inherent instincts within the soul remained.
Naturally, it was, in essence, an Undead being.
However, this was probably the most powerful soul that Ye Yinzhu and Phil Jackson could find at this stage.
The saying goes that a camel starved to death is still larger than a horse, and even if Nox’s soul were weakened, it was, after all, once a Giant Divine Dragon.
“If you can control The Zither’s Soul, you’ll be able to channel this Super Divine Artefact through it.
The weapon’s soul is the heart of a Divine Artifact, and with control over it, not only can you wield it, but you can also greatly conserve energy.
At the same time, the greatest flaw of your Super Divine Artefact lies within The Zither’s Soul.
After all, the soul of the Giant Divine Dragon harbors hostility towards you and naturally resists your control.
Furthermore, its soul is indeed quite weak.
To make your Super Divine Artefact even more perfect, you need to do two things: one, erase the enmity of The Zither’s Soul, and the other, help it to bee plete and strong again.
For you, both tasks are extremely difficult.
Energizing its soul power is unnecessary for now since your strength is insufficient to deter the backlash from its soul being powerful again, but you can first erase The Zither’s Soul’s hostility towards you, making this Super Divine Artefact that has recognized you as its master more patible with you.”
It was impossible for Ye Yinzhu not to be moved—he was dealing with a Super Divine Artefact, after all.
With his current strength, if he could wield this Super Divine Artefact, he could even pete against Faran’s mighty fighters.
“Teacher, then I will begin now,” Ye Yinzhu took a deep breath, knowing that subduing an external spirit was one thing, but to subdue the spirit within the Super Divine Artefact Ancient Zither, relying on zither music alone was impossible.
He had to depend on his own spirit and the Root of the Spiritual Seal.
Phil Jackson said, “Proceed as you see fit, and I’ll provide protection for you.
Rest assured, although this guy has a Sub-God rank soul, with my spirit within your body to assist in deterrence, unless its strength exceeds the sum of you and me, it will forever only submit to you.
Begin, child.”
With his hands placed flat on the strings of the Super Divine Artefact Deadwood Dragon Chanting Zither, Ye Yinzhu slowly closed his eyes.
This time, there was no flash of purple light; instead, a hint of gold gradually appeared at his brow.
That was the core spiritual imprint of his Spirit of the Sea, the very place where his spirit was stored.
A stream of energy, like golden liquid, slowly flowed out from that hint of gold and entered the Deadwood Dragon Chanting Zither.
Ye Yinzhu was fully aware of the strength of Nox’s spirit, and so he went all out from the start, unleashing the power of his spirit’s origin.
Phil Jackson, of course, understood the peril Ye Yinzhu faced at that moment.
The condensed soul in the form of black fog suddenly dispersed, enveloping Ye Yinzhu’s body from the outside.
With his powerful spirit, he could pletely block all external influences, allowing Ye Yinzhu to conquer the soul of the Divine Dragon Nox inside the Deadwood Dragon Chanting Zither without any distraction.
For the average person, the idea of allowing one’s spirit to enter an object is nearly unimaginable; soul control is undoubtedly much more difficult than controlling spiritual power, by more than a hundredfold.
Once a spirit enters another vessel, especially one imbued with a Magical Aura, it might never be able to leave.
And a body without its spirit is, in a sense, already dead, even if it still has life and everything functions normally.
The reasons Ye Yinzhu dared to pour his soul into the Super Divine Artefact Deadwood Dragon Chanting Zither were clear.
First, with his spiritual power, coupled with his recent cultivation in Undead Magic, he had already reached a high level of soul control; although not as flexible as his spiritual power, the energy of his soul was still much stronger.
Secondly, although the Super Divine Artefact Deadwood Dragon Chanting Zither contained a vast energy and was considered the best of the best among magical instruments, it was, after all, Ye Yinzhu’s.
As its creator, the Super Divine Artefact Ancient Zither had long recognized Ye Yinzhu as its master, and even if The Zither’s Soul was hostile to him, it was very easy for Ye Yinzhu’s spirit to freely enter and leave the Deadwood Dragon Chanting Zither.
Even the most powerful Divine Artifact would never harm its own master.
It was because of these reasons, and Phil Jackson’s protection, that Ye Yinzhu confidently entered the Deadwood Dragon Chanting Zither.
His condensed spirit maintained merely a delicate connection with his body, and in an instant, all the force of his soul had surged into the Super Divine Artefact Deadwood Dragon Chanting Zither.
Consciousness, spiritual, and soul power pletely merged into one.
When Ye Yinzhu allowed his soul to enter the Desolate Dragon Yin’s Zither, what he felt first was an immense energy and a tremendous pressure.
The faint sounds of the zither buzzed as if constantly ringing in his ears, the intangible pressure bringing a certain oppression to his soul.
Ye Yinzhu was inwardly shocked.
As the master of the Desolate Dragon Yin’s Zither, his soul still had to endure such pressure upon entering the instrument’s body.
What would be the fate of other creatures’ souls if they came here?
No wonder even Nox, the soul of the Giant Divine Dragon, had no means of escaping after being imprisoned here.
Of course, the pressure now could also be directly related to the increase in the ancient zither’s power after Nox became The Zither’s Soul.
Ye Yinzhu faintly guessed that the reason why the Desolate Dragon Yin’s Zither was still exerting some pressure on his own soul was probably due to the subconscious hostility of Nox’s spirit towards himself.
Considering the noble status of the Giant Divine Dragon, being a soul trapped within an instrument, one could imagine how unwilling the Giant Divine Dragon was at the time.
When his soul pletely entered the body of the zither, everything was shrouded in darkness.
After entering, the surrounding pressure even lessened a bit.
Gradually, a faint golden light began to glow.
It was the light of Ye Yinzhu’s soul, which condensed into a human form, a miniature version of Ye Yinzhu.
However, at this moment, his entire body was transparent and radiant with gold.
This was his true soul body, the core of which was the Spiritual Imprint.
Floating in this void, the space within the Super Divine Artifact seemed infinite.
Ye Yinzhu remained floating in place, quietly sensing all the auras around him.
Meanwhile, he was deliberately concentrating his soul power, making it more and more solid-like.
The faint golden light spread outward, illuminating the surroundings within a few dozen square meters.
Ye Yinzhu calmly said, “Nox, won’t you e out?
Or do you not wish to seek revenge on me anymore?”
The soul of the Giant Divine Dragon Nox was naturally in this space.
Its absence wasn’t because Ye Yinzhu’s soul was powerful, but rather the master-servant relationship between Ye Yinzhu and this Super Divine Artifact, the Desolate Dragon Yin’s Zither, exerted a strong pressure on its spirit as The Zither’s Soul.
A surge of intense hostility emerged from Ye Yinzhu’s soul like a torrent, causing the interior space of the entire Super Divine Artifact to start trembling violently.
Then, Ye Yinzhu’s spirit form sat cross-legged in the void, hands gently stroking in front of his body, flashing with golden light.
An odd golden ancient zither had appeared on his knees.
A vast soul fluctuation suddenly spread as this golden zither, matching the color of his soul, appeared.
Although the zither was golden, its form was no different from that of the Super Divine Artifact – the Desolate Dragon Yin.
This was the world of the soul where everything could be formed out of nothing by the power of the soul.
This zither, formed by soul energy, had no offensive power in itself.
However, when Ye Yinzhu made it resonate with his soul power, everything would change.
Perhaps sensing the ominous sign, the Giant Divine Dragon hidden in the darkness couldn’t hold back any longer.
A low and hateful roar suddenly erupted.
In the distance, a speck of milky light kept enlarging in Ye Yinzhu’s view.
The milky light, swirling around its body, was constantly released.
Although it was also a spirit form, the Giant Divine Dragon now appeared much more majestic than before.
Each scale on its body was clear, and its soul energy was so concentrated that it seemed to be tangible.
Its dragon eyes stared at Ye Yinzhu, negative emotions such as hatred and resentment being continuously released from the depths of its soul.
However, the spirit form of the Giant Divine Dragon had a pair of vacant dragon eyes.
A faint light flickered within them.
Although looking at Ye Yinzhu, there was no emotion in those dragon eyes.
Nox’s soul was not dead, but its consciousness had pletely dissipated.
Therefore, the presence of Nox’s soul here was like those of the Dragon Bone spirits in the Dragon Domain, driven only by instinct.
As Ye Yinzhu gazed at the dragon soul before him, he couldn’t help but take a sharp breath.
He realized that he and his teacher Phil Jackson had made a slight mistake in their assessment.
That was the strength of Nox’s soul.
Indeed, the soul of the Giant Divine Dragon that was initially absorbed into this Super Divine Artefact, the Desolate Dragon Yin’s Zither, was not very powerful, and was even extremely weak.
With Ye Yinzhu’s senses, after the soul of Nox launched its final attack on him, it would have dissipated pletely.
