I Pick Up A Bunch Of Attributes Novel - Chapter 286
286 Nine Lotus Heavenly Heart Prison
The Holy Son Ying Daoyi looked ahead in a daze.
In this prison formed by lotuses, there was no blazing sun that illuminated the world, no flow of spiritual energy, no Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and nothing familiar to him.
There was only desolation.
Endless darkness enveloped everything. He looked around and finally lowered his head to look at himself.
!!
Some kind of power ignited his soul, causing it to slowly burn and emit a faint glow, like a weak candle flame adding some light to this dark prison.
“You think you can trap me with such a small trick?”
The Holy Son shouted angrily. There was a sudden eruption of strength and he rushed towards the ceiling of the prison at his maximum speed.
At the spot where the 50 lotus petals closed together, there was a narrow opening.
This was the only exit in the entire Nine Lotus Heavenly Heart Prison.
“Open up!”
The Holy Son shouted.
However, in the next moment, his body lost its balance and he fell to the hard ground with a plop. A large cloud of dust rose up, causing him to cough non-stop.
“This… This is impossible…”
The Holy Son was completely stunned.
His boundless soul power had completely disappeared. He could not sense any cultivation base in his body either. It was as if he had dropped down from the peak, fallen from the nine heavens to the ninth level of hell overnight!
“Where’s my soul power? Where’s my cultivation? Why are they all gone?”
The Holy Son cried out in disbelief.
He staggered to his feet and jumped up high again, trying to rush towards the exit of the prison. However, he quickly fell to the ground again and panted from exhaustion. He even suffered a few more wounds on his body.
The power of a demon king had completely disappeared. Now, he was just an ordinary living being through and through. He did not have power to overturn mountains and seas, and there was only a strong sense of weakness that lingered in his heart.
There was nothing left of his power of the past.
The Holy Son Ying Daoyi looked up at the sky again.
In that direction, the 50 lotus petals closed together and formed an insurmountable cage. Although there was a narrow exit, with his current strength, he would never be able to reach it even if he tried his best.
He was no longer the powerful Holy Son, but an insignificant ant trapped in the cage of heaven and earth and imprisoned for eternity.
A strong sense of despair welled up in his heart.
Plop!
The Holy Son fell to the ground and wept dejectedly.
“Xia Donghai… I’m not done with you yet…”
…
“Eh, it’s gone just like that?”
In the outside world, the moment the lotus erupted with light, Long Da instinctively wanted to run far away.
However, he quickly realized that nothing seemed to have happened.
“Feng Xia, is the method you leave ineffective?”
Long Da looked around cautiously. As soon as he spoke, he had already sensed that something was amiss. The Holy Son, who should be incredibly furious by now, was not reacting at all!
There were no angry yells or curses.
He just stood there in a daze. Although the aura of his physical body was still there, it was as if he had lost his soul and there was no longer any movement.
“You… destroyed his soul?”
Seeing this scene, Long Da held his breath and asked with difficulty.
In his opinion, such an effect could only be achieved by destroying the Holy Son’s soul. Otherwise, how could he explain the current state the Holy Son was in?
The only problem was…
It was almost impossible to destroy the Holy Son’s soul!
Before this, how many times had the Holy Son been killed by Feng Xia, and when had his body and soul not been destroyed?
However, in the end, this fellow was still able to resurrect himself. It was as if the so-called cycle of life and death was meaningless to him!
“Not to that extent. If I can destroy his soul, then it need not be so troublesome.”
Feng Xia could not help but laugh when he heard that. “If you take a closer look, you’ll know that I didn’t destroy his soul. In fact, I didn’t even attack his soul directly, but trapped his consciousness in the divine power.”
“Trapped his consciousness… in the divine power?”
Long Da was stunned when he heard that. “You can do such a thing? What’s the difference between trapping one’s consciousness and trapping one’s soul?”
“The difference is very small, but it can also be said to be very big.”
Feng Xia said leisurely, “It’s extremely difficult to attack a soul directly. If you’re not careful, you’ll end up failing even if you’re right on the verge of success. However, if it’s just for a short period of time, the difficulty and risk will be much lower. Not only that, but it’ll also become even more secretive and unpredictable…”
The more Feng Xia talked about it, the more excited he became. Even through the spiderweb network, Long Da could hear his soaring spirit. “In my imagination, this is a grand divine power of the Soul Dao. However, to be more precise, when it evolves to a higher level, it might be a grand divine power of the Dao heart!”
“What the hell is the grand divine power of the Dao heart…”
After chatting with Feng Xia for a while, Long Da felt as if he was listening to a rendition of a heavenly book.
Who am I?
Where am I?
What am I doing?
He hurriedly interrupted Feng Xia and continued, “Stop, stop, stop! Let’s not talk about your grand divine power of the Dao heart first. Tell me, how long can this thing last?”
“It can last for a long time, or it can only last for an instant.”
Feng Xia thought about it for a moment before answering hesitantly, “The exact duration will depend on this Holy Son’s attainments in the Dao heart.”
“If the Holy Son’s mind is pure and his Dao heart is stable, it won’t be long before he can break free from the restraints of the Nine Lotus Heavenly Heart Prison.”
“On the other hand, the weaker his Dao heart and the more chaotic his thoughts are, the deeper he will sink into this divine power until he exhausts all his strength.”
While the Azure Dragon incarnation was searching for opportunities to increase his cultivation, Feng Xia’s original body, who was in seclusion in the zifu between the eyebrows of the Azure Dragon incarnation, did not idle around either.
He used the opportunity of digesting a divine item like the Seven Soul Essence Crystal to comprehend the deeper profundities of the transformation of his soul while absorbing the profundities of the Floating Dream Three Lives Technique, the Heavenly Pattern Divine Fetus Chronicle, and the Cangming Diagram of the Nine Heavens. In the end, he created this grand divine power, the Nine Lotus Heavenly Heart Prison!
The Holy Son Ying Daoyi was his first test subject.
The moment he killed the Holy Son, Feng Xia secretly planted a Nine Lotus Heavenly Heart Prison divine power deep in his soul.
Under normal circumstances, the Holy Son might have sensed that something was wrong.
However, during the period when the Holy Son’s incarnation was killed and then revived in the new spare body, his consciousness had remained in a state of obscurity and he did not notice the abnormality in his soul.
From the looks of it, the effect of this new divine power was quite good!
“It seems that this guy won’t wake up anytime soon. This way, we will have enough time.”
A moment later, Feng Xia finally put on a bright smile. “Long Da, when are you coming to the Heavenly Stairway?”
“You still have the cheek to ask me this question?!”
…
