Upon hearing the elder’s explanation, Lin Feng suddenly understood.

This method of data storage—it was just like those magnetic disks he used back on Earth.

Lowering his head, he examined the bronze scroll carefully.

As the elder had said, the grooves not only held green powder, but also a large amount of other impurities.

Lin Feng then walked over to the wooden table and began processing the scroll according to Yao Tianhuo’s instructions.

Inside the room, he carefully manipulated his Dou Qi, threading it through the carved grooves, pushing out all the powder within.

Since the number of engravings on the scroll wasn’t exactly small, it took Lin Feng nearly a full hour to extract all of it.

Staring at the pile of green-black powder on the wooden table, Lin Feng summoned the Glazed Lotus Heart Flame.

A thin curtain of fire suddenly swept across the air.

After completely enveloping the powder, it swiftly returned into the body of the green Heavenly Flame.

Under Lin Feng’s control, it rose into the air until it floated level with his chest.

Then, the Heavenly Flame began to increase its temperature, incinerating the impurities within.

As the flame grew hotter, black ashes began to fall from the contaminated powder, scattering across the floor.

This process continued for about ten minutes.

Eventually, the previously green-black powder turned into a pure deep green.

”Elder Yao, how do I extract the information from this now?”

Staring at the green substance, Lin Feng turned to ask Yao Tianhuo.

”Just place it at your forehead. This thing’s not too different from a medicinal formula—it was inscribed using soul power,” Yao Tianhuo explained as he glanced at the material.

Even he was curious about what exactly was recorded inside.

After all, this type of ancient information storage was extremely rare—even in his own era.

He only recognized it because he had seen a few samples at high-end auctions.

But unfortunately, the price was always too high, and he hadn’t been willing to buy one.

In the end, they were all purchased by other powerful experts.

Now that Lin Feng knew how to use the powder, he wasted no time pressing it to his forehead.

Immediately afterward, his vision went dark, and his world spun wildly.

When he regained his senses, he found himself floating high in the sky.

”Why… am I up here?”

Looking around, he quickly cast his gaze downward toward a towering mountain peak.

”No, wait! I haven’t moved at all. What I’m seeing… is just a memory preserved in the powder by that expert!”

Staring at the scene before him, Lin Feng suddenly realized the truth.

He recalled that when cultivating Earth Class techniques in the past, the scrolls would sometimes include soul-based instructional recordings like this.

But the clarity of those was nothing compared to what he was seeing now.

If those were equivalent to 720p video, then this projection was easily 8K resolution.

While Lin Feng was still stunned, five figures suddenly appeared several li away, suspended in midair.

Even though these five elders were only ancient remnants—soul projections from who-knew-how-many years ago—Lin Feng couldn’t sense any pressure from them.

But the way their mere gestures distorted and collapsed space made one thing clear:

These individuals were far beyond the Dou Zong realm.

”They’re Dou Zun! And not just ordinary Dou Zun!”

Staring at the overwhelming power before him—something he had never witnessed before—Lin Feng’s face was filled with shock.

He had to exhaust himself just to tear open space a little.

Yet these figures… the residual force they left in their wake was enough to rend space apart.

Thinking it through, Lin Feng could only conclude:

They were Dou Zun experts—ones far stronger than any he had ever encountered!

Moreover, the aura released by these five elders far surpassed even the bone remains of Yao Tianhuo back then—by countless times.

Even if you stacked ten Yao Tianhuos on top of each other, their combined aura still wouldn’t match any single one of the figures before him.

While Lin Feng was still reeling from the shock, the five elders had already begun speaking to one another.

However, perhaps because the bronze scroll had passed through several hands over time, some of the powder had been lost, resulting in broken and incomplete audio.

Even so, five words kept appearing again and again: Ban Sheng!

Combined with the other scraps of information, Lin Feng was able to make a rough deduction.

These five were likely Nine-Change Dou Zun experts—powerhouses who had already reached the pinnacle of the Dou Zun level!

And their reason for gathering here was clearly to seek the opportunity to break through into the Ban Sheng realm.

Lin Feng swept his gaze downward, examining the mountainous terrain beneath him.

But even after a while, he couldn’t find any kind of treasure capable of helping a Nine-Rotation Dou Zun ascend to the Ban Sheng level.

However, the tallest peak directly below him… looked oddly familiar.

And the endless chain of mountains to the south also stirred a strange sense of déjà vu.

It almost felt like… he had once lived near here.

Just then, the five elders suddenly and almost simultaneously raised both arms.

Immediately, the space before them began to ripple like water.

The spatial distortion intensified with each of their gestures.

Even though Lin Feng couldn’t sense the residual Dou Qi from this long-past scene, his body still felt faintly uncomfortable.

”Thank heavens this is just a lingering soul image from the past… If it were a real scene, I doubt someone like me—a mere Dou Huang—could last even a second.”

Watching the scene unfold, Lin Feng gave a bitter smile.

Then, to his astonishment, a transparent spatial gate appeared on the ground below the mountain peak.

”That’s a spatial barrier… and a very high-level one at that. Compared to this, the spatial barrier at Jia Nan Academy is complete trash.”

Lin Feng was shocked as he looked toward the miniature world visible through the gate—vastly different from the beautiful scenery outside. It was a realm of swirling red and green hues, filled with otherworldly energy.

The expressions on the five elders shifted into utter delight upon seeing the barrier.

It was clear—this miniature world was their destination.

And then, under Lin Feng’s amazed gaze, they began unleashing Dou Techniques to shatter the barrier.

Their powerful Dou Qi attacks caused the space around the impact zones to shatter like fragile glass—large swathes breaking apart without warning.

In an instant, countless terrifying black rifts tore open around the spatial gate.

Not long after, the barrier could no longer withstand their assault and was blasted open, revealing a narrow entrance.

And what appeared before Lin Feng… was a massive hidden world.

But the environment inside was extremely harsh.

All vegetation had been scorched into nothingness, leaving the entire space barren.

Judging from the swirling sands and the violent green wind blades that rampaged through the area…

Lin Feng estimated that someone of his level—Dou Huang—wouldn’t even survive one second in there before being torn to shreds by those green wind currents.
