Immemorial Dragon Elephant Art

Chapter 54: Refining The Nine Emperors’ Avatars
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

The Blood Devil Emperor joined forces with the Blazing Flames Demon King to revive one of the three most powerful devil emperors from the ancient era. They wreaked havoc in the Eastern Commandery Divine Province and killed countless innocent lives.

But ultimately, their efforts were for naught.

A mysterious expert acted and slain the remnant soul of the Netherworld Emperor with a single sword strike.

This incident caused a huge commotion in the Eastern Commandery Divine Province.

By this time, Lin Feng had returned to the Long River Branch Court.

During these days, the students of the Long River Branch Court were all discussing this matter.

For the four branch courts of the Jialan Academy, the Long River Branch Court focused on using the sword to enter the Dao. They were viewed as ‘unorthodox’ and weren’t popular at all. Their status was also the lowest among the four branch courts.

But now, that mysterious sword cultivator had displayed sword arts that could reach the heavens. He slew the Netherworld Emperor’s remnant soul and helped sword cultivators to strive for vindication.

The students of the Long River Branch Court were emotionally moved and excited.

Lin Feng handed over the left ears of the demons he had killed and exchanged them for ninety million contribution points.

These contribution points were sufficient for him to cultivate at the twelfth-level of the cultivation pagoda for three months.

Right now, Lin Feng’s cultivation base had already reached the tenth-level of the Martial Student Realm, only a step away from breaking through to the Martial Master Realm.

Naturally, he also knew that it wasn’t an easy matter to break through to the Martial Master Realm.

The geniuses in the inner court of the Jialan Academy were as many as the clouds, but the number of students at the Martial Master Realm only numbered seventy-two. From this, one could see how difficult it was to enter the Martial Master Realm. One must know that in the entire Jialan Academy, there were a total of 100,000 people combined in the inner and outer courts.

And there were only seventy-two who had broken through to the Martial Master Realm. The number was just too little. Only by gaining a stroke of good fortune would one have the possibility of breaking through.

Night came…

In the room, Lin Feng studied the Nine Emperors Diagram. Right now, all remnant wills in the diagram had already been devoured by the Immemorial Dragon Elephant.

The Nine Emperors Diagram could no longer harm Lin Feng.

Lin Feng dripped a drop of his blood onto the diagram.

A moment later, Lin Feng could sense a marvelous connection formed between him and the Nine Emperors Diagram.

When he attempted to communicate with the Nine Emperors Diagram, Lin Feng felt heaven and earth spinning. At the next moment, he arrived in a mysterious world. This world was desolate and seemed ancient. He felt like asking the vast heavens and earth, “who is the one that would be the master of the world’s destiny?”

Nine ancient existences could be seen standing above the nine heavens. They were like eternal gods, causing people to feel an impulse to worship them.

“The nine saint emperors of the demon and devil races.”

Lin Feng was badly shocked. This was the world in the Nine Emperors Diagram.

“Refining heaven, earth, mystic, and yellow, reversing the cycle of life and death. Even if gods die and devils are destroyed, the nine of us would remain untouched and live on for all eternity…”

A low voice rang out in Lin Feng’s ears.

Countless information then flooded his mind.

“ARGH!”

Lin Feng wasn’t able to endure this. He screamed in pain and slipped into unconsciousness.

When he woke up, he discovered that it was already late at night.

He was lying on his bed with the Nine Emperors Diagram placed beside him. He could feel a splitting headache right now.

“This Nine Emperors Diagram flooded me with so much information.”

Lin Feng was speechless.

His divine sense entered the Nine Emperors Diagram’s world.

The world had flooded his mind with vast quantities of information, almost causing his soul to collapse.

Lin Feng carefully surveyed the information. The content was extremely complicated. There was some content introducing the origins of the nine saint emperors and their experiences. These memories were none other than the memories of the nine saint emperors those years ago.

“Eh…”

All of a sudden, Lin Feng had a startled look on his face.

Because he just saw a piece of shocking information.

In this piece of information, there was a method to refine avatars. The introduction stated, “This is a secret art created by the nine saint emperors before their deaths. The nine emperors’ avatars could possess the terrifying power of the saint emperors when they were alive. If one could find their remnant souls in the ten thousand worlds and allow the nine avatars to devour the souls, they would gain access to all magical techniques and secret arts of the various saint emperors. When the nine avatars fully devour the remnant souls of the nine saint emperors, their strength would reach the level of the saint emperors’ when they are alive.”

“Isn’t this too shocking?”

Lin Feng had a dumbstruck look on his face.

The nine saint emperors! Any of them was akin to an ancient divine creature, enjoying the worship of the people in the world.

This secret art allowed one to refine and create the nine emperors avatars! The main thing was that these avatars could still absorb the energy of the nine saint emperors’ souls and continue growing until their strength reached the saint emperors’.

Incomparable shock filled Lin Feng’s face.

It was rumored that many powerful cultivators would all create avatars for themselves.

Such avatars were equal to a second life for the cultivators.

If one’s original body was killed, they could still revive themselves through the aid of their avatars.

These nine emperors avatars art should be a type of method to create avatars.

“One has to gather mystic spirit stones, earthfiend stones—a total of eighty-one rare ingredients. After that, one has to search for a place where there’s an exceptionally intense Yin aura and arrange them according to the instructions below…” Lin Feng then carefully read through the rest of the instructions.

The first thing was that he had to gather all the relevant materials and ingredients. After that, he had to find a place where the Yin aura was exceptionally intense.

Such places were extremely hard to find.

Usually, for places with heavy and intense Yin aura, evil demons, ghosts, devils, and monsters would often breed there.

The moment such a place appeared, cultivators would immediately head there to destroy it before it could become a place of evil Yin. At that time, countless evil demons, ghosts, devils, and monsters would pour forth in endless waves to harm the innocents.

However, Lin Feng suddenly thought of a place that might satisfy this condition of creating the nine emperors avatars.

In the western mountain of the Jialan Academy, there was a location where the Jialan Academy would bury the dead and it had been so for every generation. Because there were too many dead people buried there, the Yin and baleful qi there was extremely heavy.

Even if one headed over there during the day, they could feel the wind of Yin nature gusting everywhere. There was no need to mention it at night.

If one headed there at night, they might even hear the wails and sobs of ghosts.

That place was precisely the place Lin Feng wanted to go.

Because it was the burial grounds for ancestors of the Jialan Academy through the generations, it wasn’t destroyed.

And because there was protection provided from a great formation, even if evil ghosts and demons were to be produced, they wouldn’t be able to escape.

If the appearances of the monsters were known by the upper echelons of the Jialan Academy, they would instantly head over to destroy them.

Lin Feng spent a total of three days and finally managed to gather all the materials that were needed. After that, he silently headed to the western mountains during the night.

There were still patrolling students in the day at the western mountain. But during the night, the atmosphere was cloaked in silence. There was completely no one here.

This was also the first time Lin Feng came here during the night. Before this, he had only heard of the strangeness and terrifying aspects of the western mountain, but he had never seen it personally.

Only today, after he came here, did he realize how terrifying this place was.

He entered the western mountains. Gusts of wind blew toward him repeatedly and there seemed to be ghost flames flickering in the distance.

Wu, wu, wu~

Miserable cries echoed through the wind, like the wails and sobs of ghosts.

Although Lin Feng was usually pretty gutsy and capable, now that he was here alone, he still felt his scalp turning numb when he saw so many graves before him.

However, if he wanted to refine and create the nine emperors avatars, he could only come here during the night. If he came during the day, he would simply be too conspicuous and it was very easy for people to discover him.

Lin Feng gritted his teeth and went to the deepest part of the western mountains. Here, the graves were everywhere. Anyone would feel their hair standing on their ends and their blood running cold.

However, this was also the location where the Yin aura and baleful qi was the most intense.

Lin Feng then followed the instructions of creating the nine emperors avatars. He found nine locations where the Yin aura and baleful qi was the most intense and buried the ingredients under the ground.

After that, he left the western mountain. Next, he needed to wait for a while.

These ingredients would gather the Yin aura and baleful qi together, forming the ‘Nine Emperors Avatars.’

This would roughly require three months to half a year.

After Lin Feng left the western mountain, he straightaway entered the cultivation pagoda the next morning.

Cultivation would usually cause one to forget the passing of time. In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.

Lin Feng’s cultivation had risen to the peak of the tenth-level of the Martial Student Realm. Now, he was only a step away from breaking through to the Martial Master Realm. However, Lin Feng knew that breaking through to the Martial Master Realm required either a stroke of good fortune or a lucky opportunity.

After he exited seclusion, Lin Feng went to check on the progress of the nine emperors avatars. Right now, the Yin aura and baleful qi had congregated together, and the nine emperors avatars were about to be formed successfully. This made Lin Feng extremely excited. Most probably, not too long later, the creation of the avatars would be successful. Once they were fully refined, Lin Feng would then be able to borrow their power, and his combat strength would surge by leaps and bounds.
