Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique

The gateway trembled more violently, with Lin Feng and Angel’s eyes fixed on it.

This gate clearly intended to open by itself, remarkably peculiar.

At this point, Angel’s face regained some color, prompting Lin Feng to release her.

”This ancient temple is very unusual; when it opens later, don’t go inside. Just watch from outside while I go in to see what’s going on,” Lin Feng said.

Angel nodded.

Rumble...

Rumble...

The gateway violently rubbed against the ground, parting to either side.

Finally, the gate opened.

Inside the deepest part of the temple lay a pitch-black darkness, with mist enveloping the surroundings.

An icy aura billowed forth from within.

Lin Feng felt goosebumps rise on his skin.

He looked gravely toward the interior of the temple.

Seeing nothing strange from outside, he proceeded to walk inside.

Angel remained outside.

Upon entering the temple, Lin Feng found it vast, with numerous thick columns inside.

A total of eighteen columns.

Crack! Crack!

Suddenly, Lin Feng heard the sound of cracking underfoot.

He looked down.

Discovering many skeletons scattered across the ground.

Lin Feng bent down to inspect these skeletons.

He immediately noticed a distinctive feature.

These skeletons.

Were notably slender.

Indicating they were likely women’s bones.

”So many women died here?” Lin Feng’s heart tightened.

This place was exceedingly bizarre.

He didn’t understand why so many women had died here.

He got up and walked toward the first huge column.

He found what seemed to be chains binding something on the first column.

Only upon approaching did he see.

What was bound up was a skeleton.

Moreover, it was a mermaid’s skeleton.

Covered in dense rune symbols.

These runes emitted a malicious power.

”Evil sacrificial runes, using mermaids for some terrifying offering?”

Lin Feng’s expression changed sharply.

He turned and dashed toward the outside of the temple.

”Ah...”

At that moment, from outside, Angel’s scream rang out.

A mass of black mist flew out, swirling toward Angel.

”What monster? Get away!” Lin Feng roared loudly, striking the black mist with his palm.

”Heheheheh! Brat, what do you think you are, daring to ruin my plans?”

A sinister voice emanated from the black mist.

Next.

A blurred figure appeared within the mist, striking a palm toward Lin Feng.

Bang!

They collided fiercely, sending Lin Feng flying out.

With a cry, he spat blood.

The gap in their power was monumental.

”Quick... escape... don’t... mind... me...”

Angel’s weak voice conveyed.

Lin Feng climbed back up, wanting to flee.

But he bit his lip and ultimately stayed.

As a man, fleeing at this point, would he still be considered a man?

Even if he escaped, Lin Feng knew this matter would become his lifelong heart demon, hindering his cultivation, hence he didn’t flee but summoned three Heavenly Fires, sweeping them toward the black mist.

The entity within the mist was clearly a ”Soul Body.”

Although strong, it had no physical body.

Without a physical body, regardless of its might, a fatal weakness existed.

The physical body is the foundation of cultivation.

Without it, like a rootless duckweed.

...

”Oh, Heavenly Fire! And three types of Heavenly Fire! Trying to use Heavenly Fire against me is sheer folly.”

The blurred entity laughed cruelly.

With a wave of his hand, endless black mist enveloped the sky, quickly wrapping over the Heavenly Fire Lin Feng summoned.

Resisting the Heavenly Fire’s attack.

He then, across the Void, punched toward Lin Feng.

Bang!

Lin Feng was struck in the chest by an invisible force.

Crack! Crack!

His chest collapsed, coughing up several mouthfuls of blood involuntarily.

”Lin Feng, run quickly...” Seeing Lin Feng gravely injured, Angel’s eyes twitched violently.

A wave of unprecedented emotion surged within her.

The feeling was so complex.

Sorrow.

Moved.

And seemingly something else, she couldn’t identify.

Lin Feng wiped the blood from his mouth and chuckled, saying, ”Run now, still called a man?”

”Kid! Quite brave, I almost don’t want to kill you now, if you kneel and swear loyalty as my servant, I might spare you alive, how about it?”

The entity within the black mist gazed coldly at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng sneered, ”What makes you think you’re worthy of being my master?”

”Courting death! You dare utter such oblivious words to me, you’re insulting God’s dignity!”

The being within the mist grew colder in tone.

His form began emerging.

Lin Feng could finally see what kind of being it was.

This entity, possessed eight arms.

Fiercely grotesque in appearance.

Those eight arms didn’t wield any weapons.

It was identical to the Divine Statue on the square of the Undersea Ancient Country.

Lin Feng exclaimed in shock, ”Are you the deity worshipped by this Undersea Ancient Country?”

”Indeed! I am the Eight-Armed Sea God! Noble, venerated by countless Sea Clan beings, now kneel, bow to me apologetically, and let me forgive your previous foolishness.”

The sinister voice of the Eight-Armed Sea God resounded.

Lin Feng’s expression fluctuated; he hadn’t expected this entity to be the Eight-Armed Sea God.

Yet its aura was malicious, having blood sacrificed so many mermaids.

It was clearly not an upright deity.

Even if it’s a god, Lin Feng speculated, it would be an Evil God.

Lin Feng asked the Eight-Armed Sea God, ”To make me submit to you is not impossible, but first, answer a few of my questions.”

The Eight-Armed Sea God impatiently replied, ”Why do you have so much nonsense? What do you want to ask? Hurry up and ask.”

”Where did the people of this Undersea Ancient Country go?” Lin Feng inquired.

”Heheheheh...” The Eight-Armed Sea God laughed ominously.

Lin Feng’s heart skipped.

Could it be they were devoured by the Eight-Armed Sea God?

”Did you eat them?” Lin Feng took a deep breath, asking.

”They were all my people, sacrificing themselves to revive me, was their honor,” the Eight-Armed Sea God sinisterly spoke.

”Why do you blood sacrifice mermaids?” Lin Feng continued questioning.

The Eight-Armed Sea God explained, ”I was struck by a curse, the most terrifying curse, recurring once in a million years! Only the purest mermaid blood could, during the Reincarnation of a million years, temporarily alleviate the curse, allowing me freedom for a hundred years, then the curse would erupt again afterward, I must return to this temple to hibernate, then, wait another million-year cycle of Reincarnation...”
