Mu Chen quietly sat cross-legged on a hill in Nine Nether Palace. There was a golden scroll in between his palms, and golden lights continuously emanated from it.

After a long while, Mu Chen opened his eyes and looked at the golden scroll. He was baffled and felt at a loss.

The golden scroll contained the Nine Dragon Nine Elephant Art that he had snatched from Liu Yan.

Mu Chen had been studying it for three days, but he was unable to get anything out of it. He did not have any clue on how he could cultivate the Nine Dragon Nine Elephant Art.

Mu Chen’s expressions kept changing. Suddenly, he formed a seal with his hands. As the seals changed, majestic spiritual energy swirled out and turned into a Purple Spiritual Dragon in his palms. The Purple Dragon roared, and the crying of a dragon resounded indistinctly.

Boom!

As Mu Chen threw out a blow with his palm, the Purple Spiritual Dragon whizzed out. It struck a mountain, and cracks started to form on it.

Mu Chen stared at the cracks and frowned. When he had condensed the Purple Dragon, he had used the seal for the Nine Dragon Nine Elephant Art. Although he had successfully cultivated it, the power was extremely weak…

Given Mu Chen’s current strength, he could easily flatten the mountain. However, after using the Nine Dragon Nine Elephant Art, his power seemed to have weakened.

The Nine Dragon Nine Elephant Art was full of oddity.

“Why is this so…” Mu Chen muttered. He was baffled. This was his first time encountering such a strange Divine Technique. No wonder the owner had auctioned it off. It was difficult to cultivate.

Mu Chen pondered this while his hand held onto the golden scroll. The power of the Nine Dragon Nine Elephant Art could not be what he had displayed. In this case, he might have cultivated it incorrectly.

However, was this not the way to cultivate Divine Technique?

Mu Chen shut his eyes and ran through the cultivation method in his mind. He immersed himself in the words and tried to find out what he had missed.

Mu Chen was in this state for two hours. Suddenly, he paused. His intuition made him stop at one of the lines in the training chant.

“Gather the energy in the Dragon and Elephant…”

Mu Chen frowned. His dark eyes were glittering. Is it referring to the gathering of the spiritual energy in the Dragon and Elephant? He had tried it before…

“Unless I have gathered at the wrong place,” Mu Chen muttered. He suddenly had a thought. His mind went into the Sovereign Sea, and majestic spiritual energy continued to whoosh in the purple Sovereign Sea.

Mu Chen’s spirit floated up from the Sovereign Sea. He then stood on the surface of the Sea. After pondering for a while, he suddenly formed a seal, and the speed became increasingly fast. Afterimages formed, and one could not see them clearly.

“Rise!” Mu Chen’s spirit shouted.

Boom!

The Sovereign Sea raged, and several spiritual energy beams shot up into the sky. The beams crossed one another’s paths in the sky, and spiritual energy raged. Indistinctly, it turned into a humongous Purple Dragon.

The huge dragon occupied the horizon, and powerful spiritual energy fluctuations swirled out like a windstorm.

The huge Purple Dragon was condensed by the Dragon Seal of Nine Dragon Nine Elephant Art. It was powerful, but something seemed to be lacking in this dragon.

It was similar to a Divine Artifact without a spirit.

Mu Chen’s spirit waved his hand, and the Purple Dragon disappeared into thin air. Majestic spiritual energy returned to the Sovereign Sea. Once again, he shut his eyes and went into deep thought.

Half a day passed by.

Mu Chen opened his eyes and looked at the purple Sovereign Sea. Purple flames were moving on the surface of the Sea.

They were the Unperishable Flame.

Mu Chen stomped his feet, and the spiritual energy shot up again. As the seals changed, a huge Purple Dragon formed in the sky.

This time around, when the huge Purple Dragon had been formed, purple flames from the Sovereign Sea swirled out and covered the huge Purple Dragon.

Crackle. Crackle.

The huge Purple Dragon was covered in purple flame. Its body speedily shrank, and it became crystal clear. From afar, it looked as though it were made of purple crystal.

Purple flame was moving in its eyes. It was like a finishing touch which gave life to a dead object that had been formed by the spiritual energy.

Roar!

When the huge Purple Dragon had shrunk to less than 100 feet, its body was dazzling like a gem. The Purple Dragon looked up into the sky and roared. The cry of a dragon resounded in the Sovereign Sea and stirred up a huge wave.

The Purple Dragon flew in the sky and roared again. Suddenly, it whizzed down into the Sovereign Sea.

Mu Chen lowered his head and looked at the Sovereign Sea. The Purple Dragon was lying in the Sea as though it were in a deep sleep. Purple flames moved on its body as it slept. It seemed to be fortifying itself.
