Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique

Chapter 83: Chapter 83: Mysterious Being

Under the night sky, a bonfire rose amongst the mountain forest, surrounded by a group of people.

This group was Lin Feng and a dozen others, heading towards Mercenary Town. As night fell, the Wilderness Jungle became too dangerous, so they stopped to rest.

“Little brother, when I was your age, I was still cultivating at Jialan Academy. Yet here you are, braving the Wilderness Jungle. You’ve got quite the guts,” a cultivator said.

Lin Feng asked, “Did big brother also cultivate at Jialan Academy?”

“Yeah, but my talents were limited, and I couldn’t advance to the Inner Academy, so I dropped out of Jialan Academy,” the cultivator replied with a sigh.

With over a hundred thousand students at Jialan Academy, those unable to enter the Inner Academy were doomed to have no significant achievements in the future.

...

Continuing, the cultivator asked, “From your tone, little brother, it seems you also cultivated at Jialan Academy?”

Lin Feng nodded and said, “Yes, I have been cultivating at Jialan Academy for three years.”

“Surviving a great disaster often leads to future blessings. Having luckily escaped from the mouth of the Fire Kirin, you are bound to achieve great things,” the cultivator said with a smile.

There was laughter and chatter among the group. As the night deepened, everyone found places to rest, and Lin Feng leaped onto a large tree to sleep on a massive branch.

However, in the dead of night, as sleep hazed his mind, Lin Feng felt an overwhelming and suffocating presence.

He opened his eyes and saw a terrifying event unfolding.

In the distance, endless flames engulfed the heavens as a fearsome beast wrapped in fire rapidly approached.

“It’s the Fire Kirin…”

All were startled awake. Some dashed into the woods, but it was too late. The Fire Kirin’s speed was too fast; in an instant, it descended and killed several cultivators attempting to flee with a sweep of its paw.

“Spare us, spare us…”

The remaining people were terrified, kneeling and begging for mercy on the ground.

The Fire Kirin towered a kilometer high, looking down with cold eyes like a primordial beast.

“Wretched ants, your lord is going to eat you,” it declared.

With a wide-open mouth, the Fire Kirin sucked up everyone below.

They were then swallowed whole by the Fire Kirin.

Lin Feng hid in the big tree, keeping silent. He dared not even breathe, afraid of drawing the Kirin’s attention.

At that moment, Lin Feng wished nothing more than for the Fire Kirin to leave quickly.

Faced with such a horrifying existence, one could only feel despair.

Just as the Fire Kirin was about to leave, it seemed to sense something and turned its gaze towards Lin Feng’s hiding place.

“Another lowly ant!”

The Fire Kirin said coldly, opening its mouth and shooting a blast of flame towards where Lin Feng was hiding.

“Not good, it found me…”

Lin Feng’s face slightly changed.

He quickly leaped away, dodging the attack. The next moment, the place where he had been hiding turned into a sea of fire.

“Boy, did you think you could hide from me?” The Fire Kirin looked at Lin Feng mockingly.

“Boom.”

The Fire Kirin extended its gigantic paw and swatted towards Lin Feng.

“It’s over…”

Lin Feng turned pale as the Kirin’s paw, like a towering mountain, descended upon him like Taishan pressing down, leaving him no opportunity to dodge.

Danger!

The situation was extremely dangerous!

Just at this most critical moment, the “Mysterious Demon Pearl” within Lin Feng’s Dantian suddenly flew out and hovered above Lin Feng, with endless Demonic Qi spewing forth and rolling above him.

Boom!

The Fire Kirin’s claw struck directly onto the rolling Demonic Qi, and shockingly, the Fire Kirin was forced to retreat three steps back.

“Mysterious Demon Pearl!”

Lin Feng exclaimed, never having expected that it would be this Mysterious Demon Pearl that saved his life at the crucial moment!

Just now, had been too dangerous.

The slightest mistake could have resulted in death and the annihilation of his cultivation.

“What is this treasure?” The Fire Kirin voiced its amazement, greedy desire filling its huge eyes.

Myth and legend recorded the traits of the Qilin Clan; these creatures, much like the Dragon Clan, loved to collect treasures. There once was a Qilin that fought a great battle with a giant dragon for ten days and nights, defeating the dragon and seizing the treasure.

The Mysterious Demon Pearl hovered in midair, facing off against the Fire Kirin.

“What a fine treasure it is, it’s destined to belong to me.”

The Fire Kirin opened its mouth, intending to swallow the Mysterious Demon Pearl.

“Gods… death… demon… destruction… but… I… shall not… decay.”

Suddenly, intermittent voices emitted from the Mysterious Demon Pearl.

Upon hearing this voice, Lin Feng felt a chill down his spine.

Could there be a powerful being hidden within the Mysterious Demon Pearl?

Could it be the Ancient Dragon Elephant that was locked by the Order Law?

Lin Feng thought of the Ancient Dragon Elephant within the space of the Mysterious Demon Pearl. Even now, he couldn’t clearly discern whether what he saw was real or illusory. Was the Ancient Dragon Elephant’s existence genuine, or was it just an illusion manifested by the Mysterious Demon Pearl?

The Fire Kirin clearly got a fright as well as it exclaimed, “Damn it, is there someone inside? Who are you?”

The Fire Kirin looked doubtfully towards the Mysterious Demon Pearl.

“Born… from… primordial… chaos, laid to rest… in the… profound… and… expanse… Gods… bow… their… heads, and… saints… kneel… in… worship…”

Once again, the Mysterious Demon Pearl let out a mysterious voice, so ethereal that Lin Feng couldn’t even clearly hear whether it was a man or a woman.

“Big talker.”

The Fire Kirin sneered, “I’ll swallow you first.”

As the words fell, the Fire Kirin opened its mouth wide once more, attempting to devour the Mysterious Demon Pearl in one bite.

“Blasphemers… must… perish…”

At the moment the Fire Kirin made its move, that fleeting ethereal voice from inside the Mysterious Demon Pearl sounded once again.

Boom.

A terrifying aura permeated the area; the Mysterious Demon Pearl flew above the Fire Kirin, with Demonic Qi rolling and enveloping the Fire Kirin.

“Ah, how is this possible?”

The Fire Kirin cried in disbelief, as it found that the Mysterious Demon Pearl was crazily plundering its power.

“No, please, no.” The Fire Kirin howled in horror as its strength was swiftly drained away, and its body kept shrinking.

“Oh my God.”

Lin Feng looked on with utter shock at the scene before him; the Mysterious Demon Pearl was too terrifying, actually able to drain the power of a Divine Beast like the Fire Kirin. Probably after about fifteen minutes, the thousand-meter-tall Fire Kirin eventually shrank to about a meter in size, the little beast’s majestic sea-like power, capable of shifting the stars, was all devoured by the Demon Pearl.
