Chapter 284 The Spirit Transforms
Inside the ice palace, the two women and the man stared at each other in silence for nearly ten minutes.
Finally, Li Jie broke the silence first.
"Aunt Nyx, may I ask why you want me to go back to Olympus with you?"
Upon hearing the question, Nyx nodded slightly.
There are two things in total.
"The first one is that Zeus brought back a black box from somewhere, which may contain something that he was very interested in, and he always kept it in his palace."
"After I reclaimed my divine body from the Prison of Sin, I also used the complete Law of Night to examine that black box."
"Strangely, that seemingly fragile wooden shell was able to isolate my primal laws."
"So, I deduced that even Zeus might not be able to open that box."
"What does this have to do with me?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jie couldn't help but ask a follow-up question.
Yes, too many things have happened recently, and the Great Xia Dynasty has just experienced a divine war. If it's not necessary, Li Jie really doesn't want to leave here for an unknown divine kingdom.
As if knowing Li Jie would answer this way, Nyx showed no displeasure and continued to explain.
"Of course it's related, because I think..."
"Only you can open that mysterious box."
"Auntie, you think too highly of me. You and Zeus must be gods at the highest level, right? How could something that you both find helpless be opened by a mortal like me?"
“It has nothing to do with realm. If that box could be broken directly with supreme divine power, Zeus certainly wouldn’t have waited this long.”
"I still don't really want to go."
Nyx's description is still too vague. Although the black box may contain a divine object that would make even the supreme god envious, there is no definite information at present.
Based on this single guess alone, Li Jie was still unwilling to take the risk.
"Here's what we'll do: you and I will go back to Olympus. Whether you can open this black box or not, I'll find a way to snatch it and give it to you. I won't touch a single thing inside."
"In addition, I'll try to extract some of the primordial power of Mount Olympus as a gift for you. What do you think of this offer?"
Even after all that had been said, Li Jie still looked somewhat hesitant.
Upon seeing this, Nyx let out a soft sigh.
"The primordial power of Mount Olympus... that possesses the extraordinary ability to give form to artifact spirits..."
"Even the celestial beings of the Great Xia Dynasty might not possess such heaven-defying methods..."
"If this still can't sway you... then I'll go alone..."
"We absolutely cannot let that bastard Zeus open that box..."
"......"
Wait a minute......
The spirit of the artifact... taking human form?
“Aunt Nix…”
"I'd like to ask you, could you be a little more specific about the spirit transformation you mentioned?"
"It's just the literal meaning, how much more specific do you need?"
As she said this, Nyx's beautiful eyes subtly swept over Xian'er, who was standing next to Li Jie.
"As an aside... regardless of what it is, any artifact spirit can successfully take human form through the primordial power of Mount Olympus. As for its realm and abilities..."
"That's determined by the host body of the artifact spirit."
"If the power of transformation is integrated into a mortal artifact, what will be born is a mortal."
"If it's a divine artifact..."
"After being shaped by the primal power of Mount Olympus..."
"Then one can ascend to godhood in one step."
After saying that, a smile finally appeared on Nyx's calm face.
It's not hard to tell from Li Jie's burning gaze...
He's already fallen for her!
Upon hearing this, Xian'er guessed what Nix meant. She wanted to use her relationship with Li Jie and this so-called power of transformation to get the latter to do things for her.
"fool."
"Ok?"
Li Jie, who was weighing the pros and cons, was pulled back to his senses when he heard Xian'er call him. He turned to look at the stunningly beautiful fairy beside him.
"If we don't want to go, then we won't go."
"Don't be misled."
“Your worries are unnecessary,” Nyx replied softly, as if he had grasped the implication in Xian’er’s words.
“Li Jie is my son’s older brother, and you should have heard some rumors about me.”
“I would never use my child as a pawn, even if we are not related by blood.”
"Putting aside my supreme strength, Li Jie's current abilities alone should be enough to make him roam freely in those second-rate divine realms. Come back to Olympus with me, or as you young people would say..."
"A huge profit, no loss at all."
Upon hearing this, Li Jie suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.
Yeah, if I can't beat them, I'll just run away, right?
As long as one carries the Four Swords of Zhuxian, relying on their inherent characteristics, one can move freely among the various divine realms even without protection.
"Since Auntie has put it this way, it would be really heartless of me to refuse."
"I understand the first thing you mentioned, but what's the second thing?"
Seeing that Li Jie had agreed, Nix continued with a smile in his eyes.
"The second thing is much simpler. I would like to ask you for a god-slaying sword."
"We're about to venture into the realm of gods, so we need to be fully prepared."
"......"
After discussing some details, Li Jie and Nyx finalized the agreement to travel to Olympus in three days.
These three days will be left for Li Jie to handle affairs on the Great Xia side.
On the way back to the capital, Xian'er kept her back to Li Jie, sulking.
"Alright, don't be angry. It's not like we're rushing to our deaths."
"I'm not angry!"
"You're clearly angry..."
"Idiot! Can't you have any opinions of your own?"
"That goddess of the night is clearly using you as a pawn!"
"It can't really be called pure guns... after all, they gave me benefits. I think my current situation is more like... mercenary?"
"With your tiny frame, you think you can even venture into the top three divine realms?! Never mind you, do whatever you want!"
Hearing that Li Jie was still acting inappropriately, Xian'er suddenly turned her face back and sat on the tip of the sword, puffing out her cheeks in anger.
Seeing this, Li Jie scratched his head and tentatively tapped Xian'er's shoulder.
"Xian'er...don't you want to become a real person?"
