Chapter 1438: Chapter 1536: Soul Holding Chapter 1438: Chapter 1536: Soul Holding Fang Linâs body finally collapsed.
Forcing his vitality to its limits, coupled with the full eruption of the side effects of the Seven Days Unextinguished Pill and that fatal blow from the woman in black, Fang Lin could not withstand it, and his physical body disintegrated instantly.
âAm I going to die?â Fang Lin couldnât feel the pain; he could only sense his body fading away, before plunging into darkness, unable to see, hear, or feel anything.
His physical body had vanished completely, leaving nothing behind.
âNo way! Kid, youâre not really dead, are you?â The millennium-old Corpse Ginseng stared, eyes wide with a look of horror.
Dugu Nianâs black hair turned bright red, her expressionless face striding slowly towards the woman in black.
âHmm? You want to die too? To keep company with him on his journey?â The woman in black looked at Dugu Nian and said lightly.
âYou dare kill him!â Dugu Nian suddenly screamed, her red hair wildly flaring, and her eyes a demonic, blood-red.
Boom!!!
A boundless aura burst forth from within Dugu Nian; a dark red pillar of light descended from the sky, enveloping her.
âYou dare kill him!!!â
The next moment, the pillar vanished, and Dugu Nian, without hesitation, launched a palm strike at the woman in black.
The woman in blackâs expression was cold and indifferent, not dodging or avoiding, she too pushed out a palm.
With a thud, Dugu Nian stumbled backward, but she was uninjured; instead, her momentum grew even stronger.
Surprise flickered in the eyes of the woman in black; she hadnât expected her opponent to be so strong. In the exchange of palms just now, though she had the upper hand, she had not injured her opponent, which was far beyond her expectations.
âWhere does your power come from?â The woman in black demanded coldly.
Dugu Nian, however, paid no heed and charged at the woman in black like a madwoman, only to be repelled time after time.
It was evident, despite the unexpected strength that Dugu Nian possessed, she was still at a disadvantage against this woman in black.
No wonder, after all, the woman in black was an ancient survivor, possessing the power of the Immortal realm, and she wasnât just newly ascended like the East Pole Heaven Kingâthe woman in black had profound cultivation in the Immortal realm, her power was arguably unmatched in her era.
âYou dare kill him, I must kill you!â Dugu Nian kept chanting, suddenly a zither phantom emerged in front of her.
âThis isâŠâ The woman in black fixated on the phantom of the zither, as if realizing something.
Dugu Nian placed her hands beneath the phantom of the zither, and at that moment, heaven and earth seemed to fall silent, every sound disappearing at this instant.
Great Tao Without Strings!
The final move of the Sky Zither Three Moves was now executed by Dugu Nian.
Whether in the Nine Countries or the Seven Seas, all stringed instruments resounded on their own, despite no one playing them, yet they rang out by themselves.
âWhatâs going on? Why is the zither sounding by itself?â
âWhatâs happening?â
âIs this a haunting or what?â
âŠ
Across the Nine Countries and Seven Seas, many were startled by this phenomenon, with no idea what was happening.
And here, with Dugu Nianâs hands on the phantom of the zither, sounds from all directions converged, at this moment, coalescing between her hands.
This was the collective sound and power of all stringed instruments across the world, now drawn by Dugu Nian using Taoist methods, becoming a part of her final move in the Sky Zither Three Moves.
When the strings transform into the stringless, their sound becomes all the more rare, similar to the Great Tao. Heaven and Earth at oneâs fingertips, magnificent and exhilarating, this is calledâGreat Tao Without Strings!
This is the miraculous supreme technique that utilizes the sound of the zither to manifest the power of Heaven and Earth, unpredictable in power.
As the sound of the zither first rang out, the people of the Taoist sects around were hit hard, the Long-lived Ones spat blood and were sent flying, while those below the Long-lived Ones died on the spot.
The woman in the black dress sensed danger, stepping back while continuously bombing out Palm Impressions in an attempt to resist the zither sound that was so strong it was unimaginable.
The Palm Impressions kept shattering, completely incapable of stopping the onslaught of the zither music, the woman in the black dressâs countenance drastically changed, and she suddenly pointed a finger out.
With one finger, three different auras converged at the fingertip, seeming to be just a simple gesture, yet it seemed to blend together many profound martial arts.
Buddha Light, Hao Qi, Yin Yang
The power possessed by martial artists of the three sects, at this moment, converged into a single finger of the woman in the black dress.
One Transformation of the three sects!
Boom~~~~~
The sound of the zither clashed with the power of the finger, causing the sea to rise into towering waves, affecting thousands of miles in the vicinity, and all the experts of the three sects were alarmed, even many strong individuals in the Nine Countries, felt something.
Dugu Nian coughed out a mouthful of fresh blood, her expression became even colder and more mournful, while the woman in the black dress finally lost the air of tranquility she held before, a trail of blood on her cheeks, an injury caused by Fang Linâs ancient spear.
And from the seven orifices of her body, blood also seeped out, injured by the zither music of Dugu Nian.
âOMG, when did you become so powerful?â the Millennium Corpse Ginseng hiding behind Dugu Nian wasnât affected much.
Dugu Nian turned her head to look at the Millennium Corpse Ginseng, who was always fond of babbling, but when stared at by Dugu Nianâs crimson pupils, it immediately shut up and dared not speak.
âHa ha ha ha ha! I havenât been injured for many years, ever since I escaped my confinement, you are the first one to injure me,â the woman in the black dress suddenly laughed, seemingly quite pleased.
âYou shouldnât have killed him!â Dugu Nian said, but she was also continuously coughing, her hands once again resting on the illusory image of the ancient zither, preparing to perform the Great Tao Without Strings once more.
And those people from the Taoist sect all around, now only a few Long-lived Ones remained, at this moment, were terrified out of their wits and quickly fled in all directions, fearing that the terrifying zither music would strike again, they couldnât take it anymore.
Even the white-robed Taoist with such high cultivation was severely injured under the sound of the zither, not to mention the others.
Just at this moment, at the site of Fang Linâs physical collapse, suddenly a flame began to burn.
This turn of events startled both Dugu Nian and the woman in the black dress.
The emergence of the flame was abrupt, burning more and more fiercely as if ignited from thin air, and faintly, a figure could be seen swaying within the flames.
âFang Lin!â Dugu Nian, though having changed to her current state, still remembered Fang Lin and called out joyfully.
The woman in the black dress wore an expression of disbelief, but soon she saw it clearly.
âSo itâs a Soul Holding, I didnât expect this child to have such profound fortune; his soul is so strong that even with the destruction of the physical body, the soul still exists,â the woman in the black dress said, and with a flick of her finger, a beam of light flew towards the flame, intending to completely annihilate Fang Linâs soul.
Dugu Nian appeared beside the flame and shielded it with her body from the woman in the black dressâs finger light.
âAs long as you still exist, I wonât let you die,â Dugu Nian smiled through her tears, her hands protecting the flame.
A translucent longsword slashed down directly above Dugu Nianâs head.
After that, Dugu Nian, pale-faced, slowly merged Fang Linâs soul into her body.
âI shall cut half my soul apart to let your soul exist within me.â
Soul Holding, to exist together with you!
