Since Mozart got his cultivation back, he was able to open his mind palace, open storage gadgets, and
do many other things. Owing to that, he tried summoning the teleportation door. However, it didnât work,
despite him having access to everything else. Mozart wouldâve been able to send Jade out otherwise.
So he could only bring Jade along with him.

He then summoned both Shelly and Ancestor Bodhi out of his mind.
âAncestor Bodhi!â
âHey, take a look at him. Is he your twin or something?â
Returning back to the place filled with blood talismans, the evil Bodhi could still be easily recognized
though he had been sliced in half by the Phanes Ax.
Ancestor Bodhi seemed calm. âI knew all along, so just give me a pit to deal with him. I almost had a
heart attack when he appeared out of nowhere!â
âWhat does that mean? You already saw it a while ago?â
Ancestor Bodhi said, âI came from the same roots as he did. We were the ancestor spirits that came
from the Ancestral Bodhi Tree. I branched out to the South, whereas he branched out to the North.â
âThe treeâs Yang energy faced the South as the Yin energy faced the North. That is probably why we
never got along since birth.â
This was the first time Mozart had heard such an explanation, but it made sense.

âBut to us spirits, my powers are not as strong as his despite striving towards kindness. Since spirits
naturally have more Yin energy, he is much stronger than I am. Back then, we were fine with each
otherâs presence since we arenât aggressive.â
âYet, later on, he managed to grow a divided soulâ¦â
Upon hearing this, Mozart sympathized with Ancestor Bodhi and tried comforting him. âI understand
now. You poor child, you have been abused since then, huh? Even if he was still one being despite
having six divided souls, he was still much stronger than you. Thatâs how you ended up this way, right?â
Mozart

âExactly!â Ancestor Bodhi was even older than the Earth. Yet, he still teared up upon looking back on
his horrific childhood memories.
It seemed that this guy had been treated as an enslaved person even back in the Dairaionji Temple. He
was basically the evil Bodhiâs lapdog, as the evil Bodhi took control over everything. The evil Bodhi had
him take care of the tree, but he could already leave the Ancestral Bodhi Tree for long periods of time
and travel around freely, making trouble anywhere he went. As long as the tree was alive, the evil
Bodhi wouldnât dieâ¦
Juvia was actually wrong to have called the evil Bodhi âFatherâ. The evil Bodhi had swallowed her
father and merged their memories together. That was how he was able to mask as her father when
speaking. Moreover, with them merging, their blood naturally mixed together as well. That was why
Juviaâs blood could activate the blood talismans in the ground.
âHahaha!â Suddenly, Ancestor Bodhi started cackling maniacally, acting even crazier than the evil
Bodhi.
Shelly, who was standing at the side, started shaking her head. âPoor child, give him a moment. If he
doesnât let out any of his pent-up emotions now, he might become depressed⦠So this is why heâs so
timid now.â
In the end, Ancestor Bodhi swallowed up the evil Bodhi. Since they were both from the same roots, this
was the best course of action for now. However, the evil Bodhi was now just a shell. His actual spirit
had been killed by the Phanes Ax and swallowed up by Josua.
Josua.

Shelly looked towards Phoenix. âHow are you holding up?â
The two knew each other quite well, in fact.
âIâm okay.â
âNo, youâre not I can tell.â Shelly stared at Phoenixâs face with a stern expression.
âWhat could possibly be wrong? Come on, Shelly, why are you nagging all the time?â
âSomethingâs wrong with you and him!â Shelly huffed.
âI can see it in your soul and eyes. Youâre developing feelings!â
âHuh???â Phoenix nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.
As the Little Divine Phoenix, she couldnât possibly take such comments. Phoenix then looked at
Shellyâs body, which still hadnât finished growing at the time. Suddenly, she had a cold and exciting
idea.
âHeheheâ¦â
Just then, Mozart sent out a few seals with his hands to the blood talismans on the ground. Moreover,
large amounts of blood flowed down from the grimstone while the flesh slid to the other side. This blood
was able to help them open the altar entirely.

Roar!
âSeiryuu, three steps to the left!â
âByakko, four steps to the right!â
