Seeing that Di Tian intended to attack once more, the Crow Empress immediately shouted, "Wait Beast God" She thought with her cultivation nearing a million, she will stood a chance against Di Tian who was only 890,000 year old. How wrong she was, not only in bloodline and strength, even if she was a million year old spirit beast, she will still lose. She only managed to cultivate that far because of the lava essence around her. In terms of experience and true strength, the 100,000 year old Titan Giant Ape, Ceasar can beat her in a life and death fight.
"I'd rather die than to become a human's spirit ring. But why are you, the beast god, helping a human?" The crow empress curiously asked.
"He's not just any human. He's my disciple" Di Tian calmly spoke. "And I want you to help him ascend godhood by being his spirit ring." He stated this as this was a huge temptation for any spirit beast. And if his disciple becomes stronger and stronger, he can also help the spirit beasts. Well that is if he won't side with the humans who kept killing spirit beasts to get stronger.
"What do you mean by intelligent spirit ring earlier?"
Di Tian just looked at Itachi after hearing her question. Itachi nodded as he communicated on his mind scape. 'Uncle Wu, please.'
After that Uncle Wu, the previous Demonic Crow Emperor appeared in front of Itachi in his soul form.
"Brother Wu?" The Violet Crow Empress was shocked. Her mind was in a mess. "Where is your real body?"
"You've grown little Zi" Uncle Wu spoke softly. He was older than the Violet Crow Empress literally. The empress only has the lava essence to aid her that made her catch up to his cultivation. "I've become this kid's spirit ring" He paused a little bit before continuing, "willingly."
"What!? Why?" The crow empress asked. In her thought, Brother Wu was someone who would rather die than become a human's spirit ring.
"Well let's just say circumstances made me do" Uncle Wu answered. Part of the reason he became Itachi's spirit ring was he was not sure if he will survive his next tribulation.
"Enough chitchat" Di Tian interrupted them.
The Violet Crow Empress is thinking really hard at the moment. She was still hesitant about it. She has the phoenix god's blood flowing in her blood. She has maybe a one percent chance ascending godhood as most spirit beasts will never ascend it even if they have tens of million of years cultivation. In fact, they won't even reach that as the limit for a spirit beast is only in the million year old cultivation. Any more than that they will be their own gods in the human realm. [Let's just say a 10,000,000 year old spirit beast is comparable to a God Officer. Even if they hadn't ascended godhood they will still be gods in the human realm. Don't get me wrong, it still won't be enough to kill the God Officer as only gods can kill gods]
After a considerable amount of time, the Empress spoke, "Fine, on one condition." She looked at Di Tian. "I'll let a 1000 year old Violet Crow take over this volcano. You just need to prevent other spirit beasts coming in this volcano and it's surrounding area."
Di Tian nodded and asked them to get started. Uncle Wu explained what needs to be done as Skydream already explained it to him.
Itachi who has been silently watching sat in meditative position to get his mental state to peak.
After about ten minutes, Uncle Wu spoke, "Let's get started. Ah wait befofe that what spirit bone do you want ltachi?"
Itachi looked at Di Tian as if asking for his guidance as his knowledge was limited only to his Aunts teachings.
"Left arm is good." Di Tian spoke. The reason for this was the skull spirit bone can only bring out its maximun benefits is if it is a spirit beast that uses mental energy. The torso spirit beast is when it is a spirit beast that has strong defensive power. And Zi Ji formed a right arm spirit bone on her death. And Itachi needs to be at least a spirit emperor to absorb it as he has no assistance from it's owner, his Aunt Zi Ji.
