Divine War Pill Emperor

After Fang Yinzi left, Jiang Chen remained alone in the vast, empty Ghost Temple.

And the Ghost Temple was an exceedingly rare Immortal Artifact.

In his past life, Jiang Chen wouldn’t have given an Immortal Artifact a second glance, but in this life, it was a Magical Treasure that was incredibly difficult for him to obtain.

He stood on the seventh floor of the Ghost Temple.

He looked around.

’Get out. I have to get out of here.’

Jiang Chen was lost in thought, preparing to find a way to leave the Ghost Temple.

Right now, the Ghost Temple was under his control.

One could say that everything in the Ghost Temple moved at his slightest thought.

’Fang Yinzi was trapped for ten thousand years.’

’I don’t know how many years I’ll be trapped.’

’But... is it really impossible to leave the Ghost Temple?’

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen decided to give it a try and see if it was truly impossible to leave the Ghost Temple.

BOOM!

The very moment he was about to try and leave the Ghost Temple...

...a sudden roar echoed in his mind.

The next moment, the Ghost Temple that had been floating peacefully in his sea of consciousness suddenly began to roar and tremble.

This caused his sea of consciousness to quake violently.

Jiang Chen was greatly alarmed.

’What’s going on?’

In his alarm, Jiang Chen hurriedly checked his sea of consciousness.

Just then, as the Ghost Temple roared...

...a vast and mighty voice entered Jiang Chen’s mind.

”An empty fate, a sighing wind’s lament, a hundred barren realms the people weep, where all gods return, to the Ghost Temple deep...”

The strange voice was all-pervasive, drifting back and forth in the depths of Jiang Chen’s mind.

Jiang Chen had heard this before; Fang Yinzi had also chanted such a Spell.

Hearing it now, the voice sounded incredibly eerie.

It carried an immense, desolate, and ancient aura.

It shrouded Jiang Chen’s sea of consciousness, and at the same time, an inexplicable aura enveloped the Ghost Temple where he stood.

”Congratulations on becoming the Ninth Generation Ghost Lord of the Ghost Temple.”

’What?’

Jiang Chen was stunned.

’The Ninth Generation Successor of the Ghost Temple.’

This information had suddenly appeared in his sea of consciousness.

He had become the Ninth Generation Ghost Lord of the Ghost Temple.

But he had no idea who was speaking to him.

”Who are you?”

Jiang Chen looked around, his expression a mixture of shock and suspicion.

But he couldn’t see anyone.

One could say that the Ghost Temple, both in his past life and this one, had always been an incredibly strange existence.

He couldn’t make heads or tails of the Ghost Temple.

And now, he had become its Ninth Generation Ghost Lord.

As Jiang Chen’s words faded, a blurry figure emerged from within the Ghost Temple.

The figure’s face was indistinct, but its silhouette was incredibly imposing.

It stood within Jiang Chen’s sea of consciousness.

Its tone was indifferent. ”I am the Eighth Generation Ghost Lord of the Ghost Temple, Tian Du.”

”Since you have obtained the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique, you are a successor of the Ghost Temple.”

”And you are the ninth generation successor.”

”You are also the final successor of the Ghost Temple.”

”One is the beginning, and nine is the end.”

”We all failed. This time, only you... only you are our hope.”

”Young friend, you are the only one who can walk this path to its end.”

”You are the hope for all of us.”

”Ask nothing. When you reach the end, you will understand everything.”

Disbelief was written all over Jiang Chen’s face. It seemed the Ghost Temple had nine generations of successors in total. He was the ninth, and also the last.

’The end?’

’As for this ”end” Tian Du mentioned, what exactly is it?’

’Is it the end of the path of a Martial Cultivator?’

In his past life, he had only reached the Peak of the Divine Emperor realm, and he knew that higher realms existed beyond that.

It seemed that this Eighth Generation Successor, Tian Du, was a terrifying existence who had surpassed the Divine Emperor Cultivation realm.

But now, according to Tian Du, he had failed. Even the previous successors of the Ghost Temple had all failed.

That meant he was the only hope.

Tian Du suddenly sighed. ”I have waited a long time for you. My time is limited.”

”This is merely a remnant of my consciousness, and it is about to dissipate. However, within this remnant is contained the supreme truths of the Dao that I spent my entire life’s blood comprehending.”

”And... my lifelong Artifact Refining Technique.”

As he spoke, Tian Du’s remnant consciousness began to dissipate.

The next moment, Tian Du’s remnant consciousness transformed into countless runes that scattered throughout Jiang Chen’s sea of consciousness.

Those runes formed the endless, supreme truths of the Dao.

And Tian Du’s Artifact Refining Technique.

These runes transformed into a massive torrent of information that poured into Jiang Chen’s mind.

Even though it was just a remnant, the consciousness Tian Du left behind was so immense that Jiang Chen felt he couldn’t possibly absorb it all.

His mind went blank from the overload.

”Sigh...”

After an unknown period of time, with one final sigh, Tian Du’s remnant consciousness completely dissipated.

Jiang Chen could only continue to helplessly digest the supreme truths of the Dao and the Artifact Refining Technique that Tian Du had passed to him.

Tian Du was an existence who had surpassed the Divine Emperor realm.

His comprehension of the Great Dao was something Jiang Chen from his past life could not even begin to compare with.

Although Jiang Chen could not fully digest it all, the supreme truths of Tian Du’s Dao were the purest essence. Even comprehending a tiny fraction was enough to cause an earth-shattering change in his Cultivation.

BOOM!

At some point, Jiang Chen suddenly felt the signs of a breakthrough in his Cultivation.

Immediately, his body trembled as his Cultivation broke through directly from the Martial King Third Heaven to the Martial King Fourth Heaven.

And he continued to constantly comprehend Tian Du’s supreme truths of the Dao.

There were many things he was still unable to digest due to his insufficient Cultivation, but they were stored in his mind, waiting for future breakthroughs to be easily comprehended.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

After that, there was no room for any stray thoughts in Jiang Chen’s mind.

He could only immerse himself in comprehension.

Without even realizing it, his Cultivation broke through again and again.

Jiang Chen paid little attention to any of this.

He was completely engrossed in the supreme truths of Tian Du’s Dao.

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Chen slowly opened his eyes.

SHING!

In that instant, a brilliant light burst from his eyes, almost as if it were tangible.

He looked within and discovered that his Cultivation had already broken through to the Martial Arts Sect Second Heaven realm. He had jumped almost an entire major realm.

’As expected of a terrifying existence who surpassed the Divine Emperor.’

’The Eighth Generation Successor, Tian Du.’

Although he had never met Tian Du, he was extremely grateful to him.

With the supreme truths of Tian Du’s Dao, he would be able to smoothly break through the shackles of the Divine Emperor realm in the future, surpass the Divine Emperor, and touch the very edge of the world’s Great Dao.

Tian Du’s Dao was too complex for Jiang Chen to comprehend completely, of course.

He could only digest it slowly over time.

Having received Tian Du’s inheritance and become the Ninth Generation Ghost Lord of the Ghost Temple, Jiang Chen now wore a strange expression.

’It seems Fang Yinzi never received the Ghost Temple’s inheritance.’

’He was just trapped, nothing more. He definitely doesn’t know the true secret of the Ghost Temple.’

Jiang Chen felt a slight thrill of excitement.

Fang Yinzi might have thought he had gained his freedom by escaping, but in reality, he had missed out on the Ghost Temple’s most precious inheritance.

And all of this seemed to be related to the fact that Jiang Chen practiced the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique.

Fang Yinzi had only obtained the third level of the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique, whereas Jiang Chen possessed the complete Cultivation Technique.

Therefore, this time, not only had Jiang Chen not suffered a loss, but he had actually come out with a massive gain.
