989: Zither Emperor Volume 46: Ryuzakinus Fortress Chapter 316: The Divine Dragon King’s Soul Fire (Part 1) 989: Zither Emperor Volume 46: Ryuzakinus Fortress Chapter 316: The Divine Dragon King’s Soul Fire (Part 1) The energy of the Divine Dragon King, after all, is limited.
It is obvious that allowing the elite warriors to benefit from the energy resistance provided by the Divine Dragon King’s energy first is the most correct choice.
Whereas these relatively ordinary soldiers should wait until the fortress has been built to a certain extent, and, coupled with the growth of the Life Ancient Tree to a sufficient level to positively impact the environment, it would then be better for them to enter the Abyssal Plane.
By the time all the Dragon Cavalry had entered the Abyssal Plane, a full day had passed.
After issuing orders, Ye Yinzhu started directing the remaining army to be ready to enter the Abyssal Plane at any time.
Oliveira and Cruz, two deputy manders, were in charge of these remaining troops, aiming to relieve Ye Yinzhu of some of his manding pressure.
Two days later, after Ye Yinzhu had arranged for another batch of five hundred thousand human warriors and Beastman Warriors to enter the Abyssal Plane, he felt somewhat tired.
For three continuous days, he could say he had not had a moment of rest.
Just as he was about to take a rest and then head over to the Abyssal Plane to check on the base construction, he heard the Little Dragon Lady’s voice in his ear.
“Ye Yinzhu, the old guy is calling for you.”
Ye Yinzhu turned to look at the Little Dragon Lady and couldn’t help but frown slightly.
No matter what, the Divine Dragon King was her father, and it always made him somewhat unfortable to hear her refer to the Divine Dragon King as ‘old guy’, being a descendant of dragons and a scion of the Divine Dragon himself.
But since they were father and daughter, and the Divine Dragon King himself had said nothing, he felt it inappropriate to interfere in their family affairs.
With a floating motion, Ye Yinzhu followed the Little Dragon Lady to the entrance of the passage.
At that moment, the golden light at the entrance of the passage had clearly dimmed significantly, and the golden energy giant dragon that coiled around it had turned into a transparent color.
The Divine Dragon King’s Soul Breath seemed to have been greatly weakened.
“Divine Dragon King, are you alright?” Ye Yinzhu asked with concern.
The Divine Dragon King gave a bitter smile.
“I did not expect that the additional resistance aura would consume so much energy.
With just a little over a million beings, I’m already struggling to sustain it.
I must still preserve enough energy to inject into the channel, to maintain its opening and closing.
Yin Zhu, I asked the Dragon Lady to find you because there is something I need to tell the two of you.”
Ye Yinzhu felt a slight sinking feeling in his heart as he sensed an ominous premonition from the Divine Dragon King’s tone.
“Divine Dragon King, please speak.
What do you need me to do?”
The golden light suddenly brightened, and in the next moment, Ye Yinzhu and the Little Dragon Lady found themselves in a golden space.
The entire space was a pale gold color, with gentle waves of energy flowing through the air.
With a flash of light, an old man with white hair and beard appeared before Ye Yinzhu and the Little Dragon Lady.
He was wearing a gold robe that seemed ancient and antique, and his elderly face looked somewhat pale, but he possessed a pair of bright, spirited eyes.
“Do not be surprised; this is my Territory.
If you ever achieve God rank in the future, you will also possess such a Territory.
Within this kind of Territory, divine strength can be released to its maximum extent and can also best protect oneself.
If I did not have this Territory of my own, I fear my spirit would have dissipated long ago.
What you see now is my soul form.”
Ye Yinzhu gave a slight bow, paying his respects to the Divine Dragon King.
The Little Dragon Lady, however, only showed a slight ripple of emotion on her face, devoid of any particular expression as she watched the Divine Dragon King.
The Divine Dragon King first glanced at the Little Dragon Lady, slightly sighed, and said, “I know you have always blamed me.
I have wronged you.
But at that time, I had no other choice.
I did everything in my power to save your life.”
The Little Dragon Lady looked down, “What’s the point of saying these things now.
What did you want to see us for?”
The Divine Dragon King responded with a faint smile, and suddenly raised his hands, projecting two beams of golden light into the foreheads of Ye Yinzhu and Little Dragon Lady.
In an instant, two surges of overwhelming Soul Power abruptly entered the depths of their Spirit of the Sea, blending with their Soul imprints in a flash.
Ye Yinzhu distinctly felt that within his Spirit of the Sea, new memories had emerged, memories concerning the Seal and the gateway.
Among them were methods to open and close the gateway.
The Divine Dragon King spoke, “The gateway that connects the Ryuzakinus Continent with the Abyssal Plane has been suffused with my energy for ten thousand years and can now be pletely controlled.
The method of control has been imprinted into your memories.
To open or close it, you first require the energy of a Fifth Rank Sub-god, followed by knowing the methods to open and close it.
It would be favorable if we win the Holy War.
Yet, should we be defeated, you would be able to lead warriors from all races to retreat back to Ryuzakinus and close the gateway.
Even if a being of God rank were to emerge from the Abyssal Plane again, breaking through the gateway I have created would not be an easy task.
It should at least ensure another ten thousand years of peace for Ryuzakinus.”
A heaviness settled in Ye Yinzhu’s heart, “Divine Dragon King, why are you telling us this?
Isn’t the presence of your leadership enough for the Seal?”
The Divine Dragon King smiled gently, his aged face showing the color of hardship and profound sadness pervading his countenance, “My kin have been gone for so long, and my physical form has long ceased to exist.
It’s time to join them.
As the Clan Leader, could I let them remain leaderless forever?
This time may perhaps be the only chance for our Eastern Dragon lineage to avenge its wrongs.
I absolutely do not want to see failure.
Therefore, I will do everything in my power to help you win this war.”
As he said this, the Divine Dragon King paused.
Ye Yinzhu wanted to say something but was stopped by the Divine Dragon King.
Simultaneously, Ye Yinzhu and Little Dragon Lady found themselves unable to move, their bodies entirely restrained.
Given that Ye Yinzhu was of Fifth Rank Sub-god capacity and the Little Dragon Lady’s strength was at the peak of Sub-god rank, the energy required to seal both their bodies at once must be terrifying indeed.
“There’s nothing more to say.
The moment I chose you, I made my decision.
Sustaining my spirit consumes an excessively vast amount of energy.
Now, I will transfer the last of my Soul Power to you both, making your spirits stronger.
Aside from opening and closing it, the energy contained in the Seal will be enough to maintain a resistance aura for three million more human warriors after my spirit disperses.
The fate of the Holy War is now in your hands.
Yin Zhu, if you wish to repay me, take good care of the Dragon Lady for me.
She is the last Divine Dragon, my only daughter, and my final concern.”
Though the Divine Dragon King, transformed into a spirit, had restrained Ye Yinzhu and Little Dragon Lady, his gaze was filled with affection and encouragement.
His face bore a smile, but his eyes sparkled with resolution, evidently determined to go through with his decision.
Panic arose in Ye Yinzhu’s heart; he had a vague understanding of what the Divine Dragon King was about to do.
Now, however, he had not the slightest chance to intervene, not even the ability to speak, as he could only watch helplessly as the flame of Jinse (Gold) Soul Fire on the ancestors of the Eastern Dragon around him grew increasingly intense.
Previously, Phil Jackson had once burned his Soul Fire, and Ye Yinzhu was all too familiar with that sensation.
What the Divine Dragon King was doing was precisely the same thing.
However, the Soul Fire he ignited was much more immense than Phil Jackson’s.
The splendid golden flame almost instantaneously filled the entire space, circling around himself and the Little Dragon Lady.
The seemingly intense flames did not bring heat but warmth.
The gentle and warm energy slowly soaked their bodies, as rings of golden light rose from their feet, spreading towards their heads.
The faint golden light gradually intensified.
With each subtle shift, Ye Yinzhu could clearly see the growth of the Soul Bead within his Spirit of the Sea, and the vast stores of Life Energy inside his body fused more perfectly with him.
For three years, Ye Yinzhu had never ceased his cultivation, but advancing in Sub-god rank was incredibly difficult, even for someone at the Demon Martial Extreme Wall Sub-God rank like himself.
Elevating even one rank was arduous, hence he remained at Fifth Rank Sub-god.
Yet, at this very moment, under the stimulus of the Divine Dragon King’s burning Soul Fire, his Sub-god rank began to pulsate violently, foreshadowing an imminent breakthrough.
No, Divine Dragon King, please, no more.
Ye Yinzhu kept calling out to the Divine Dragon King through his spirit, even attempting to resist the energy that perpetually infused his body.
But there was a substantial difference in essence between his spirit and the Divine Dragon King’s.
Although Ye Yinzhu’s spiritual ability was among the highest in humans, it was still within the scope of humanity.
The Divine Dragon King’s spirit belonged to the God rank realm ten thousand years ago.
No matter how powerful a human, they ultimately couldn’t pare to a god.
Sub-god rank was not on par with the Divine.
The Divine Dragon King continued to smile warmly as he watched Ye Yinzhu and the Little Dragon Lady, his expression calm.
Remember, when Phil Jackson burned his Soul Fire, Ye Yinzhu had deeply felt the agony he faced.
The burning of the spirit is infinitely more excruciating than the scorching of flesh, by hundreds or thousands of times.
However, Ye Yinzhu failed to perceive any fluctuation in the Divine Dragon King’s spirited flames.
