Unlike Xiao Ji, the Death Series, Ghost Series, and Mystic Series’s ultimate moves are much more difficult to execute with Heart Driven Spirit; thus, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound merely succeeded in casting a few ultimate moves it was familiar with using Heart Driven Spirit.
However, unlike the previous tests with Xiao Ji, the effects of Heart Driven Spirit seen in the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound’s handling were somewhat decent: even without greatly enhancing the ultimate move’s effects or its application scope, it still managed to attain a boost, at least not the kind of negligible enhancement.
"Why did this happen, the cost of lowering the difficulty?"
At this moment, Feng Yuan also realized that maybe reducing the difficulty caused the Heart Driven Spirit effects of the three series to flounder? If so, wouldn’t it be pointless?
Feng Yuan felt there was something still unknown to him. While he was pondering this, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound concluded its display, ran down the training field, and flopped onto the ground, panting and looking exhausted.
"Qi Chen, it’s your turn. Veronia, how about it, can you still continue?"
Seeing the performance of the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound, Feng Yuan didn’t push it, realizing their aim was merely to test the effects of Heart Driven Spirit a bit; there wasn’t a need to hurry mastering this technique.
At least to Feng Yuan, the effects of Heart Driven Spirit were less than satisfactory. The Fluffy Fire Wolfhound managed to make use of it, but it was not one of the three series with lowered difficulty, making it quite challenging for the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound to master Heart Driven Spirit.
Before elevating other aspects to the extreme, the content of training in this area wouldn’t be high-value according to Feng Yuan, as improving other aspects wasn’t that difficult.
While Xiao Ji, due to the attribute advantage, could handle it easily... the result, frankly, had little difference whether it was present or not, leaving Feng Yuan puzzled as to its essence.
At least from this situation, Heart Driven Spirit barely held any value for the three-series ultimate moves.
Yet before Qi Chen and the others could ascend, a Gate of Netherworld casually opened beside Long Boduo, a sight even startled Long Boduo.
"Elwick?"
Gathering his thoughts, Long Boduo already knew the visitor: the Transcender of Wandering Spirits, Elwick, another Ghost Series Divine Beast of Netherworld, though he always stayed in the Netherworld, making his door rarely used. As an old friend, Long Boduo could unmistakably identify Elwick’s unique Gate of Netherworld.
What puzzled him now was why Elwick appeared here when there were no wandering spirits to save?
Under normal circumstances, Elwick wouldn’t leave the Netherworld due to his special authority being Transcendence. Typically, wandering spirits wouldn’t engage in chaos, but there are exceptional instances demanding Elwick’s intervention.
"What brings you here? I don’t think there’s anything requiring your intervention around here?"
Feng Yuan’s curiosity was piqued by Elwick’s presence that felt oddly misplaced; Elwick turned to Feng Yuan and commented
"They’re discussing a place called the Qi Realm, so I’ve come to inquire what’s going on."
"Qi Realm... huh... wait?!"
Scrutinizing Elwick, Feng Yuan suddenly realized that Elwick’s Transcendence could calm the minds; if so, then...
Thinking carefully, Feng Yuan narrated the story of the Qi Realm and his thoughts, for it hadn’t occurred to him earlier the formidable potential Elwick’s abilities held within the Qi Realm.
"A power that distorts souls? This power opposes mine. If I were to purify it, this power would likely cease as well; however, none of you seem affected."
Elwick assessed Veronia, noting from Feng Yuan’s description the presence of Qi Realm Stance capabilities, yet in his eyes, Veronia’s soul seemed unchanged.
Whether psychological issues could get resolved remained unknown, but severe psychological problems could indeed contort the soul.
Veronia showed no such condition, which perhaps suggested the Qi Realm’s impact was lesser than described, at least regarding Divine Beasts.
Elwick couldn’t ascertain if anything was amiss, given that any possibility exists in this world; he doubted the infallibility of his judgment.
"Well, this possibility is nonetheless viable. By the way, what are your thoughts on Heart Driven Spirit?"
Recalled something, Feng Yuan recounted the matter of Heart Driven Spirit to Elwick. Feng Yuan approached Elwick as the latter’s nature differed significantly from regular Divine Beasts; Elwick’s emotions were faint, seldom impulsive, leading Feng Yuan to believe Elwick’s personality suited Heart Driven Spirit well.
Even if the Death Series and Ghost Series appeared unbeneficial with Heart Driven Spirit, perhaps Elwick devises a useful approach?
"An effect disqualified by difficulty... might be. I might know why and need to verify the grounds if that’s the case."
After a brief contemplation, Elwick spoke, and with a smirk, Feng Yuan invited
"Of course~ Feel free~"
Watching Elwick step onto the training field, Veronia stepped back perplexedly, as Elwick didn’t require her guidance; in Elwick’s case, that was unnecessary, him potentially utilizing Heart Driven Spirit superiorly.
Elwick didn’t immediately perform ultimate moves with Heart Driven Spirit; after standing quietly for a while, he began to act.
He bypassed other ultimate moves; Netherworld Wind belongs to the frequently used type of moves loved among Ghost Series Spirit Beasts as openers, and due to habitual simplicity, Elwick preferred the same.
Yet unlike Xiao Ji and others displaying Netherworld Wind, Elwick’s summoned Netherworld Wind showcased peculiar effects.
"Is this... Crystal Domain initiation?"
Staring at familiar Nether Soil Domain, Feng Yuan was dazed; if he wasn’t mistaken, was this Netherworld Wind accompanying inaugurate Crystal Domain? But... doesn’t it rely on Nether Soil Domain Crystal to activate?
"Indeed possible, but how exactly was it done, with Heart Driven Spirit yielding a distinct effect from yours?"
Veronia commented, gazing at Long Boduo, with Xiao Ji aside from limited ultimate move control and vision; Long Boduo shouldn’t hold such shortcomings.
"Why can’t I achieve this effect?"
Long Boduo was stunned too, convinced his Heart Driven Spirit induced Netherworld Wind wasn’t this result.
The potency wasn’t remarkably stronger, yet relative to previous outcomes, this allowed skipping the Nether Soil Domain inauguration time.
It was merely the beginning; with Netherworld Wind gusting, illusory plants solidified, indicating Nether Soil Domain awakening; but how’s this happening?
"By the effect, it is indeed impressive!"
Stroking his chin, Feng Yuan expressed astonishment that, although not propelling ultimate move force, this effect was valuable given even Xiao Ji needed initiating Nether Soil Domain prior to proceeding onto Domain Awakening during which Xiao Ji couldn’t cast other ultimate moves.
Contrarily, this effect diverged, as Netherworld Wind, though not immensely powerful, remained a commonplace opening move naturally containing force. Not only disrupting opponent rhythm, it concurrently allowed Nether Soil Domain’s introduction, thus maximizing advantage—notably beneficial.
"Heart-controlling Spirit."
An epiphany struck Dou Yanlan immediately understanding why Elwick’s Netherworld Wind effect differed. With Dou Yanlan’s utterance, Feng Yuan comprehended likewise.
Heart Driven Spirit couldn’t possibly result in this effect; even amongst Divine Beasts, discrepancy wouldn’t arise, for Xiao Ji and Long Boduo’s rendered effects were congruous.
Indeed, Heart-controlling Spirit diverged, as Heart Driven Spirit’s progression simultaneously unexplored by Xiao Ji, potentially favorable for such results, nevertheless, Feng Yuan sensed something amiss.
