Chapter 831: Incarnation vs. Lord of Bones
Just as Qi Xuansu had said, if they were anywhere else, he would not be able to summon any of the Three Yin Beings. But this place was uniquely favorable.
In the mortal realm, the ratio of yang to yin energy was roughly nine to one.
Even just 20% of yin energy would make a living person very uncomfortable. At best, they would fall gravely ill. At worst, they would lose their life. With 30% yin energy, zombies and ghosts would begin to manifest. Places with 40% yin energy were overrun by spirits, much like the outskirts of the Ghost Kingdom.
In the yin-yang seam, yin and yang energy were split evenly, which was roughly the same percentage as the core areas of the Ghost Kingdom. But since everyone fighting within this rift was a Heavenly Being, the effects were not very pronounced.
Furthermore, the descent of one of the Three Yin Beings essentially involved opening a Yin-Yang Gate, creating a portal that linked directly to the Ghost Kingdom. Now that he was already in such a rift, linking it further would be much easier.
If Qi Xuansu’s mastery of Diviner’s spells were high enough, he could even open a new path from here, transporting the trapped Yinglong Warship directly into the Ghost Kingdom.
Unfortunately, Qi Xuansu’s Diviner lineage was still too weak to open a Yin-Yang Gate large enough for the Yinglong Warship. The current rift they were in had only been barely formed with the combined efforts of the Shinkan-dan from Asahi-jingu and the aid of the Yasakani Magatama.
The black mist coiling around Qi Xuansu’s arm thickened, and as he thrust his hand forward, a surge of yin energy billowed out like a sea of clouds or rising tides.
Just then, Himiko, who had kept her eyes closed until now, finally opened them.
Her eyes were so bright that no one could look at them directly. In that instant, the red sun behind her grew even more dazzling, and its light flooded the divine kingdom until everything in sight became a sea of blinding white.
Himiko had awakened from her slumber.
True solar fire had indeed been born, and it was spreading without the need for any medium or fuel.
