“Oh, crap, the great outdoors sure is dangerous, with disasters lurking at every corner. At least I’m in my Avatar.” Chen Changan grumbled as he heard the slaughter outside Misty Pavilion.
At this rate, Dragonised City was finished, with all its population serving as food for Malignant Spirits.
Chen Changan stood on stage before the wooden zither while the chaos from outside the thin walls grated his nerves.
“If this doesn’t work, then I might as well call it quits and end the Avatar.” Chen Changan muttered.
*Roar!* A dozen Malignant Spirits snapped the door to pieces as they barged in, sensing Chen Changan within.
He smiled at them, “I love to show off my skills to ladies, but since they all fled, I’ll have to give a shoddy performance to the undead.”
Chen Changan placed his hands on the strings, familiarity and strangeness assaulting his mind.
A zither score flashed to mind from his old life, and he activated the Absolute Domain System’s two traits. Immortal Solution and Special Effects.
Chen Changan strummed. As the sound boomed, the plain wooden zither also exploded with boundless radiance.
Dao took the stage as it launched a relentless attack.
The dozen Malignant Spirits were made of soul power, shrieking in pain from the piercing sounds and disintegrating on the spot.
Chen Changan saw them all turning to dust, and his eyes shone.
“The ‘Ambush from Ten Sides’ I learned in my old life is a battlefield song. By adding Immortal Solution and Special Effects to it, the ghosts can be cut down.” Chen Changan gasped.
[Absolute Domain’s traits have unearthed potential, with Heaven only knowing how many uses it has.] He was amazed at how well his idea worked.
Since music affected them, Chen Changan did not hesitate to save all of Dragonised City. He unleashed Immortal Solution and Special Effects to their full effect.
*Dang~ Ding~*
Under the two traits’ power, the plain wooden zither transformed into a supreme treasure as Dao flowed through it and into every ripple and note.
As Chen Changan strummed, the music erupted from the Misty Pavilion and into the city.
Despite the years he had not touched an instrument, Chen Changan felt at home. The Ambush from Ten Sides score and the zither became one, feeling like he had played it a thousand times before. It was the same feeling he had when he imparted Obscure Nirvana to Touba Ye.
[A song that wrenches the heart, where do I find a knowing ear?]
The sound was flat at the start, with a neat rhythm. It marched on like a veritable army, without stopping or surrendering.
The music grew fierce, tense, and cruel, leaving one feeling surrounded—the perfect score for a bloody battlefield.
As the shouts of pain echoed through the Dragonised City, the scrambling people heard the imposing music. They could feel it flowing from Misty Pavilion, rippling like water and charging out with relentless force.
All Malignant Spirits in its path were crushed then and there.
Dragonised City became silent as the cultivators stared dumbstruck.
[What is going on?]
[Did the zither sounds kill them?]
[It’s obvious the music holds no power, yet the Malignant Spirits can’t stand it?]
[How frightening.]
The music covered all of Dragonised City, culling any undead still lingering.
Outside of the city, the rumbling, dark mist faded.
“What’s going on here?”
“We’re saved!”
“What terrifying music; it’s unthinkable that zither music can kill the Malignant Spirits.”
“Dragonised City must have a truly incredible hidden expert!”
The people were all shocked at this sudden turn for the better.
