Listening to Phil Jackson's detailed explanation of the rainbow levels, Ye Yinzhu couldn't help but reveal a trace of yearning in her eyes. White level, sub-god level, what kind of powerful existence was that?
Phil Jackson smiled and said, "Once you reach the Demigod rank, your strength will immediately rise to another peak. Simply put, if the Quasi God rank can borrow some of the power of nature or the power that naturally exists in our world, then the Demigod rank is to control these powers. Borrowing and controlling, these are two different levels, I think you can understand. After reaching the Demigod rank, it was equivalent to an existence that was second only to God. Firstly, the lifespan of a human could be extended from three hundred years to five hundred years. At the same time, after reaching the Demigod rank, a human's aging could be controlled through their powerful strength, or rather, heaven-defying strength. That's why the seven leaders of the Faran Pagodas are all young. They don't need to take care of themselves at all. They only need to carry out a simple transformation through the elements to make their bodies glow with youth. "
Ye Yinzhu said, "If you continue to cultivate, as your strength increases, your lifespan can also increase. If this is a continuous process, then wouldn't you be able to live forever?"
Phil Jackson sighed and said, "In theory, yes. However, only gods could truly live forever. No one had ever seen what a God looked like, and there had never been a God-ranked existence on the continent. That was the ultimate goal of all Demigod rank cultivators. However, cultivation itself was a heaven-defying act. Perhaps it was because the creativity and imagination of humans far surpassed that of other races. Five hundred years. This was already the limit of what a human could achieve. At the age of five hundred years old, if one did not have any special methods, even if they had already reached the ninth rank of Demigod Realm, they would still die. Back then, if it wasn't for the fact that I was pursuing the ultimate power, pursuing immortality, and truly becoming a god, how could I have given Sloan a chance? "
Ye Yinzhu was shocked. "Could it be that you're already 500 years old?"
Phil Jackson said indifferently, "My 500th birthday should have been sixty years ago. To be precise, I'm already 560 years old. Although I have lost my body. I had even lost the Soul Orb that my soul was attached to, but this was my true age. Not to mention me. Even Sloan and the other six were over or close to 300 years old. Otherwise, how could they have such strength? According to the rules of the Faran Seven Pagodas, when the Seven Pagodas Masters reached the age of 300, they would have to focus on accepting disciples who would inherit the Faran culture. I accepted Sloan as my disciple when I was two hundred and eighty years old, and now another two hundred and eighty years have passed! "
Ye Yinzhu said, "Then you only have one disciple, Sloan, the Dark Tower's Tower Master?"
Phil Jackson said, "This is our rule. We can have many disciples in name. However, there was only one Inner Disciple who truly inherited the position of Tower Master. Once the inner disciple candidates were decided. We will immediately announce it in Faran and inform the other six Tower Masters to be witnesses. This is to prevent Fa Lan from losing the position of Tower Master when we pass away from each other. The disciples we accept. Naturally, he was the one with the best aptitude after thousands of selections. Back then, when he accepted Sloan as his disciple. I was really excited because at that time, Sloan was the one with the best aptitude among the Seven Pagodas Masters. Later, the facts proved my judgment of Sloan's aptitude and comprehension. Although the Radiant Tower's inheritance is light and space dual attribute abilities, Sloan is definitely the strongest among the Faran Seven Pagodas. He is the only one who is about to enter the peak of the White Class Rank 9 after me. He is only one step away from becoming a god. According to his current cultivation, this last step is very likely to be completed before he dies at the age of 500. If that is the case, then, not only will it be a disaster for Faran, I'm afraid it will also be a disaster for the whole of Longqinus. "
Ye Yinzhu's eyes revealed a trace of astonishment. His judgment of the strength of the Faran Seven Pagodas Masters was already very high. However, after listening to Phil Jackson's words, the strength that he had always thought was already good was actually more than ten ranks lower than the Faran Seven Pagodas Masters! Although he didn't know how big the gap between each rank of the White Class was, the difference in strength between each rank of the Purple Class was already huge.
Phil Jackson smiled and said, "Very surprised, isn't it? I have carefully observed the current situation of the Seven Pagodas from the ring made from the horn of the Holy Dragon. Although my strength has yet to recover, I can tell from their aura. Among these people, Sloan is already close to the White Class Rank 9 and has reached the peak of the White Class Rank 8. I believe that he will definitely make another breakthrough within ten years. Radiant Tower Master O 'Brien has just entered the White Class Rank 8 and is still quite a distance away from Sloan. As for the other five Pagodas, they are hovering around the White Class Rank 5 or White Class Rank 6. I'm afraid that they will never be able to reach the peak of the White Class in their lifetime. Back then, I was the greatest genius among the Faran Seven Pagodas. I reached the White Class Rank 9 realm at the age of 370. It seems that not only can my evil disciple surpass my record, even that kid O 'Brien can do it. If it wasn't for Sloan's despicable actions, I would definitely be happy for his achievements. "
Ye Yinzhu asked doubtfully, "Senior, what did Sloan do to you back then?"
When Phil Jackson heard Ye Yinzhu's question, his life clearly became colder. "What did he do to me? I took him in as my disciple and taught him for a total of 160 years, from 280 to 460 years old. In the end, it actually led to his actions of killing his teacher. Before he ambushed me, he was the person I trusted the most. I imparted everything I had to him. I even gave him all the divine weapons, gems, and wealth I had collected over the past 400 years. However, in the end, he still attacked me. "
Speaking up to this point, Phil Jackson's soul fluctuated violently and the black fog formed an irregular shape. "If he really killed me, perhaps I wouldn't hate him so much. However, he destroyed my plan just as I was about to succeed and become the first human God. For this plan, I painstakingly researched and trained hard for 90 years! For that moment of breakthrough, 90 years of time was lost just like that! "
Phil Jackson, who was so excited, was already somewhat incoherent. The elemental magic fluctuations in the air obviously became stronger. It was not an ordinary magic elemental fluctuation, but a kind of fluctuation similar to the soul, causing Ye Yinzhu, who had just recovered her vitality, to feel dizzy. She was shocked to remember the scene when she rescued Phil Jackson from the crypt and quickly reacted. Although Phil Jackson's strength is now far from his peak, the soul of this super-strong person who used to be at the peak of the sub-divine level is not something she can bear.
Ye Yinzhu sat cross-legged on the ground and took out his Zither of the Great Saint's Heritage Sound. While completely guarding his spiritual force around his spiritual imprint to resist the soul fluctuations in the air, he quickly moved the strings and played his familiar "Origin Cultivation Meditation Song". In the dark night sky, the soft zither music slowly sounded, and a circle of lavender halo radiated from the ancient zither on Ye Yinxiu's lap. The first thing to stabilize was his own spiritual imprint. The faint Violet Light turned into a halo that protected Ye Yinzhu's body and blocked the irregular scattered black weapons. At the same time, a part of this lavender halo also fell from the sky, carefully gathering the black fog that seemed to be about to disperse slowly to the center. Soft and warm emotions filled this divine sound halo. Under Ye Yinzhu's constant efforts, when this song "Origin Cultivation Meditation Song" was played, Phil Jackson's soul reunited and the soul fluctuations in the air disappeared.
"I'm sorry. I didn't expect that after losing the soul bead, I couldn't even control my emotions. "
Phil Jackson's old voice was a little hoarse.
"It doesn't matter, don't be sad, go on. You are now out of the sea of suffering, and the past is the past. Instead of being sad, it is better to work hard to restore your strength. I will try my best to help you eradicate Sloan, the evil disciple who killed his teacher. "
A trace of gratitude came from Sloan's soul, "Thank you, Yinzhu. I feel much better now that I have you to comfort me. Let's continue talking about the past. As I said just now, I accepted Sloan as a disciple at the age of 280. Ninety years later, when I was 370 years old, I finally became the first person in the history of Faran to reach the white-level Rank Nine, that is, the peak of the sub-divine level. At that time, I thought, I still have more than a hundred years to live, and my strength has reached the peak. So what should I do next? Is it to enjoy life? I originally wanted to do that, but later I realized that after more than three hundred years of cultivation, I couldn't find joy in other aspects besides cultivation. So, I had a bold idea. Since cultivation is going against the heavens, why don't I carry out this heaven-defying behavior to the end? Five hundred years is the limit of a human's lifespan. If I break through this limit, then I will no longer be a human, but a god. More than a hundred years is not long, but it is not short either. Although I know that the possibility of failure is very high, how can I be satisfied if I don't try? So, I began to work hard in the direction of a god. "
God, what kind of a word was that! Just the feeling of being high above was not something that could be compared to other meanings.
"Did you fail?"
Ye Yinzhu asked cautiously.
"No, I succeeded."
When he said the word "succeeded", Sloan's voice became obviously excited, and it was filled with pride.
"Succeeded?"
Ye Yinzhu was shocked. Could it be that she was not talking to the soul of a human, but the soul of a god?
"Yes, I succeeded, but I also failed. I succeeded in breaking through to the Domain of Divinity. I finally had the possibility of breaking through to the Demigod rank. There was only one last hurdle left, but I also failed. I failed because I took in such an evil disciple. It was because of him, that evil creature, that I failed at the last moment. Not only did I lose the chance to break through to the Domain of Divinity, I was also sealed in the Demon God Barrier by him and imprisoned underground for a hundred years. "
Ye Yinzhu did not speak because he did not know how to comfort Phil Jackson at this time.
He could understand Phil Jackson's feelings very well. When you worked hard for more than a hundred years, but in the end, because of the person you trusted the most, that kind of feeling was unimaginable.
Phil Jackson's soul was violently agitated again, but this time, he controlled it within a certain range and did not lose control like before.
"Do you still remember what I told you about the black and white souls back in the underground cavern? The cultivation of the black soul is based on the dark magic element, and it is extremely difficult to cultivate. When the dark magic element mages truly cultivate to the peak and break through this peak, that is the black soul. The black soul is also known as the Destruction Lich. It is the ultimate form of a necromancer. If one cultivates the black soul, according to my research. The end result will be an extremely powerful and evil existence. When that time comes. Not only can he summon undead creatures to fight for him, he can even create new undead creatures to fight for him. The black soul is an undying existence, equivalent to a God-level super expert. In other words, it is a powerful evil that surpasses the white rank 9. The cultivation of the white soul is the opposite of the black soul. The white soul starts from the cultivation of necromancy. In order to study the continuation of human life and human souls, they work hard to cultivate orthodox necromancy. When the cultivation of necromancy reaches the peak and breaks through the bottleneck, that is the white soul. The white soul is also the Sorcerer God. The true peak of the dark magic element mages. The path that I have chosen is the path of a white oracle soul cultivator. I remember very clearly that day, I finally found the final critical breakthrough, in order to reach the ultimate peak of power. I chose to give up my own body, in order to become the strongest, to reach the God-level strength. It is impossible for humans. This is the limit that the heavens have placed on humans. Only by giving up the human body. Existing in the form of a soul. Only then can I make another breakthrough. I used my incomparably powerful magic to protect my soul from the body, but. At the moment when my soul left the body, at its weakest. But I received the attack of that evil beast … "
Deep sorrow spread. This time, Phil Jackson paused for a long time before continuing, "Before that training session began, I had to go back to my room. I had a premonition and was ready to do all this. I didn't even inform the other six pagoda masters of the seven Faran pagodas at that time, because I selfishly thought. They wouldn't watch me enter the godly realm. Maybe they would do something destructive to my final breakthrough. So, I only told him, my most trusted disciple. But who would have thought. In the end, the one who really brought me disaster was this disciple who had always been obedient to me. A disciple who was like a yes-man to me. I hate it. I hate that I didn't understand his heart. But. At that time, everything was too late. Although I had made a breakthrough the moment I gave up the body. But in the end, I only completed part of it. Sloan, that evil beast. He used the Earth Demon God Array from the Ancient Era that I passed to him. The Earth Demon God Array could only be used once to directly seal my soul and take my Soul Orb for himself. If not for my Soul Orb. How could he have trained to the level of white level 9 at the age of 280? He was at least 50 years faster than that genius of light magic, O 'Brien. "
"Is he crazy? In order to increase his training speed, he even harmed his own teacher. Furthermore, you have reached the godly realm, so it should only be beneficial to him. What he did was really stupid. "
"No, he wasn't stupid at all. The reason why he harmed me was because he was afraid that I would discover that he didn't follow my request to train pure necromancy like me and walk the orthodox path of the white sorcerer soul training. Instead, he chose to train as a black sorcerer soul training that focused on dark magic and evil necromancy summoning. Although the black sorcerer soul training will be more difficult than the white sorcerer soul training in the later stages, it will undoubtedly allow for stronger attacks. He knew that I have always hated this kind of dark sorcerer scum the most. He was afraid that I would discover his secret after I reached the godly realm, so he made a move at the final juncture of my training, causing my 90 years of hard work to go to waste. "
Ye Yinzhu nodded her head forcefully. "Senior, you …"
"Yinzhu, do you know? I want to cry. The pain of being betrayed by the person closest to me is something that I will never understand unless I truly experience it. But, I no longer have a body. Even if I wanted to cry, I couldn't. Although Sloan harmed me, he knew that even if I was left with only my soul, he wouldn't be able to completely destroy me. That's why he imprisoned me in the demonic god seal, hoping that my soul would dissipate over time. But he didn't expect that although I didn't completely become a white sorcerer soul, I had already reached the final step. At the same time that all his efforts went to waste, I had already broken through the demigod realm, hovering between the demigod realm and the godly realm, becoming a demigod. Even if I lost my soul orb, as long as I controlled it carefully, my soul wouldn't dissipate. The demonic god seal is the same as my own soul, unable to be exposed to the sun. That's why he could only imprison me in the depths of the Dark Tower, hoping that when he had enough power, he would destroy me completely. I could feel that he was getting closer and closer to that level of power. Just as I was prepared to accept my fate and accept the outcome of being destroyed, you appeared and gave me a chance at a new life. "
"Senior, could it be that no one has heard your call before me?"
Ye Yinzhu asked.
"Silly child, do you think it's that easy to hear my call? In the demonic god seal, I couldn't unleash my soul power at all. Every day, I tried to call for help from others, but because of the barrier around the Dark Tower and their own limitations, the people of Faran couldn't hear my call at all. Even the other six Tower Masters were no exception. I was waiting, waiting for someone who could reach the state of 'One with the World' to appear. Only then would he be able to discover my existence. I waited for a hundred years, and you finally came. You're not even twenty years old, but you've already reached the state of 'One with the World'. This is really hard for me to imagine. Later on, I discovered that without the help of the enormous magical elements of Faran, you were able to reach the purple rank at such a young age. You aren't any weaker than O 'Brien and Sloan's disciples. You're a genius, a true genius. If I was still the Tower Master of the Dark Tower, I would definitely think of ways to make you my disciple. I believe that as long as you continue to train hard, you'll definitely become a peak demigod expert, and you might even strive towards the godly realm like me. As long as you're willing to give up your physical body, the chances of success are very high. "
"Give up my physical body? Are you talking about giving up my human appearance? No, I don't think I'll do that. Is there no other way to become a god other than giving up my physical body and breaking away from my human identity? You've already said that this is a heaven-defying action. However, your final breakthrough was still in accordance with the will of the heavens, and you compromised with the formless rules. This is not what I want. "
Phil Jackson didn't expect Ye Yinzhu to say this. Although he was a little surprised, he didn't think much of it. "Child, you're still young. If you've also trained for hundreds of years, and the peak is right in front of you, and endless life is right in front of you, will you still think like this? Faced with a more convenient and more likely path to a breakthrough, I think there aren't many people who can resist that kind of temptation. Of course, you'll have to first reach my level back then. It's still too early for that now. "
Ye Yinzhu nodded and said, "Senior, don't worry. As long as there's a chance, I'll definitely help you achieve your wish. Although this is still a little far for me now, I'll definitely continue to train hard, and strive to reach the level of the Seven Tower Masters of Faran as soon as possible. "
Phil Jackson was silent for a while, as if thinking about something. Suddenly, he seemed to have made up his mind. "Yinzhu, are you interested in learning necromancy from me?"
Ye Yinzhu was shocked. "What did you say? Necromancy? I … "
He originally wanted to refuse immediately, but at this moment, he could clearly feel the deep desire in the depths of Phil Jackson's soul. For a moment, he couldn't bring himself to refuse.
Phil Jackson said, "Child, learn necromancy from me. Only in this way can you catch up to Sloan's strength in the shortest time possible. Although I don't know who your teacher is, I can be sure that he definitely doesn't have the strength of a white rank. Your talent is really too good, I really don't want to see your talent go to waste. I'll never be able to become a true god, but I'm not resigned. You have a pure heart. As long as you're willing, I believe that with my help, you'll definitely be able to replace Sloan's current position in the future and become the new Tower Master of the Dark Tower. "
"You can even rely on your own ability to develop the relationship between the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools and Faran in the second direction that I mentioned just now. At that time, your Eastern Dragon Eight Schools can once again stand in the most glorious position on the stage of history. You can even see your ancestor, the Divine Dragon, and the other powerhouses consolidate the seal of the abyss together. "
Ye Yinzhu smiled bitterly and said, "Senior, you should have already seen that I'm a psychic magician. To be precise, I'm a Divine Musician. At the same time, I also practice martial arts. I can't change the result of my ten years of hard work. More importantly, I like the profession of Divine Musician. I've liked it since I was young. My zither is a part of my life. I'm sorry. Although I can promise to help you, I can't promise to change the direction of your cultivation. Even if I know that learning orthodox necromancy from you is more beneficial for my future development, I can't promise you. "
Phil Jackson didn't give up because of Ye Yinzhu's words. Instead, he smiled and said, "Who said you're giving up your current magic? Even if you want to give up, I won't allow it. I've watched every one of your battles in the Seven Kingdoms and Seven Dragons Ranking Tournament. Although your commanding ability is still somewhat lacking, you're good at using your power, especially the combination of martial arts and magic. Unfortunately, you're still too little in terms of combining them. Since martial arts and magic, two different abilities, can be combined, why can't magic be combined? You've seen the situation with Light Tower Master O 'Brien. Although his current realm is much lower than Sloan's, if the two of them were to really fight, Sloan would at most have a slightly higher chance of winning. Why? It's because O 'Brien has mastered two types of magic, unlike Sloan who only mastered one. "
Ye Yinzhu said in surprise, "Are you saying that you want me to cultivate necromancy as well? But. I'm already distracted by cultivating magic and martial arts at the same time. If I were to cultivate another type of magic, wouldn't it affect my future development? "
"Humph, that's just common knowledge. Yinzhu, did your teacher or others tell you that it's easier to reach the peak if you focus on one type of skill? "
Ye Yinzhu nodded and said, "Yes, Grandpa Qin said that although I also cultivate martial arts, martial arts is only a foil to magic. However, martial arts were only a foil to magic. It was to help my zither magic make up for my weakness in close combat by using Sound Blades. But it still wants me to focus on one ability. Grandma Nina once said that. It's best if I only choose one from martial arts or magic. "
"They're wrong, they're all wrong."
Phil Jackson said proudly. "If there's anyone in this world who has the most right to speak about cultivation, it's undoubtedly me. Even your East Dragon's ancestor, the Dragon God, couldn't have a better understanding of power than me. It's easier to cultivate one ability, but this is only the choice of those with mediocre aptitudes. Their comprehension determines that they can only cultivate this way. But. You're different. You're a genius. Your foundation is simply too solid. Most importantly. You've reached the realm of Oneness of Man and Nature. Oneness of Man and Nature is a state of mind that even a demi-god level may not be able to achieve! With such a state of mind, even the most difficult bottleneck from quasi god level to demi-god level will be much easier for you. So. You don't have to worry about anything like the extreme wall of magic at all. At the same time, I want to tell you that after I saw your zither magic from the East Dragon Empire, I thought of a very good way. The highest realm of cultivation is to extract the essence and get rid of the dross. The relationship between Dark Magic and Spiritual Magic is as close as Light Magic and Space Magic. The most important aspect of Dark Magic, especially Necromancy, is the summoning of the dead, or rather, the control of the dead. This undoubtedly requires a huge amount of Spiritual Energy as a backing. With your current Spiritual Energy, cultivating Necromancy is practically twice the result with half the effort. Cultivating Necromancy will not only not affect your zither magic and martial arts, I can even guarantee you that with these two types of magic complementing each other, your strength will have a qualitative leap. "
Speaking up to this point, Phil Jackson was already filled with excitement. "Child, you have to understand that you don't have an environment like Faran to cultivate. Although this is a pity, it's also a good thing. In Faran, there are no external disturbances or contact with the outside world, making it impossible for them to reach the realm of Oneness of Man and Nature like you. Although your current cultivation speed is not bad, it's not enough to rely solely on one type of magic if you want to continue improving. Only by complementing each other with Spiritual Energy and Necromancy will it be easier for you to make a qualitative leap. We don't have much time left, child. As Sloan gets closer to the peak like the Black Wizard Soul, the crisis is also getting closer. You may only have a hundred years or a few decades left. I can't let you cultivate slowly, and I'm not willing to wait for so long. If you want to defeat Sloan, you have to learn Necromancy from me. You have to increase your strength as soon as possible. "
Ye Yinzhu listened quietly to Phil Jackson's words. It would be a lie to say that she wasn't tempted. Learning from a demigod-level super powerhouse would undoubtedly greatly increase her strength. But frankly speaking, deep in her heart, she still found it difficult to accept the words Necromancy. After all, this idea had long been ingrained in the depths of her heart.
Phil Jackson couldn't help but feel anxious when he saw that Ye Yinzhu hadn't agreed yet. "Don't you understand what I mean? Yinzhu, how about this. I'll tell you another secret. I'm anxious to deal with Sloan, not only to avenge myself, but more importantly, for the sake of the entire Longqinus. You know very well what the destructive war brought to the continent. But do you know where the Mother Witch in the abyss came from? "
Ye Yinzhu shook her head, somewhat at a loss.
Phil Jackson said in a low voice, "Many people think that the Mother Witch is a creature from another world, or perhaps from another plane. However, I don't think so. After studying the destructive war in detail, I became more and more afraid, because I discovered that the Mother Witch's abilities were very similar to the Black Wizard Soul that I've researched. Or rather, the Mother Witch is very likely a Black Wizard Soul that used to cultivate. For some reason, it went to another plane, or perhaps it created another plane of its own. When our two continents collided, it opened a passage between that plane and ours, bringing a terrible disaster to our world. Although this is only a guess, there are many signs that my guess is at least 60% correct. If that's the case, then the Mother Witch is a god-level existence, a black wizard soul, a witch, the descent of the God of Evil. "
Ye Yinzhu said in shock, "You're saying that if Sloan cultivates a Black Wizard Soul, then even if the abyss seal isn't broken, we'll have to face another existence similar to the Mother Witch?"
"Yes, it's precisely because of this that I have to stop Sloan from becoming a Black Wizard Soul. Based on his current cultivation speed, no matter how difficult it is to cultivate a Black Wizard Soul, he will definitely succeed before he reaches 500 years old. Suffering for the people! That's a true suffering for the people. Child, you're my hope. I don't trust anyone except you. Learn Necromancy from me, I'm begging you. Even if you don't think for the entire continent, don't you think for your Eastern Dragon Eight Schools and your family and friends? Orthodox Necromancy is not evil at all. Or, other than dealing with Sloan, you don't even have to use it. I'm imparting Necromancy to you because I don't want the orthodox cultivation method researched by the previous Masters of the Dark Tower to be lost. Also, this is the only way you can catch up to Sloan's strength before he becomes a Black Wizard Soul. "
Ye Yinzhu was silent. Phil Jackson's words had truly moved her. That's right! Even if she didn't think for the sake of Longqinus, could she not think for the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools and her family and friends? Perhaps a few decades was still far away, but running away wouldn't solve the problem.
"Alright, I promise you."
Ye Yinxiu nodded with some difficulty.
Phil Jackson was overjoyed. "That's great. It's getting late. From tomorrow onwards, I'll impart Necromancy to you every night. All you need to do is practice your zither magic while you're at it. I need to think carefully about how to better integrate Necromancy and your zither magic so that they can complement each other and help you improve your strength. "
The distant horizon had already revealed a faint glimmer of white. The dark sky had unknowingly turned a dark blue. The darkness was about to leave and dawn had arrived. The earth was once again filled with vitality.
Phil Jackson said, "Yinzhu, there are two more things I need to tell you. You left your companions to search for the whereabouts of the girl who was captured, right? Actually, you don't need to worry about him. I think you'll find her easily. Her safety won't be a problem. There's one more thing. It's about the identity of the girl who fought against you in the final battle of the Seven Kingdoms and Seven Dragons. "
