Divine War Pill Emperor

Seated at the center of the altar, the method for condensing a Soul Divine Statue automatically surfaced in Jiang Chen’s mind.

He had previously devoured countless Ghosts on the first level, and his soul had already grown incredibly powerful.

Now, it was time to condense the Soul Divine Statue.

Proportionally, his Soul Divine Statue would be ten times the size of his soul.

”Condense the Soul Divine Statue,” Jiang Chen muttered.

The next moment, wisps of Soul Power rapidly gathered within his consciousness.

At the same time, rays of red light abruptly appeared on the altar, slowly condensing into a divine statue.

This divine statue was a perfect likeness of Jiang Chen.

At first, it was very small, only a few inches tall. But as Jiang Chen’s Soul Power continued to condense, the statue outside grew larger and larger.

It was as if it were being inflated with air.

One meter, five meters, ten meters.

In the end, Jiang Chen’s Soul Divine Statue became a ten-meter-tall divine statue.

It stood erect before him.

Jiang Chen stopped. This was his Soul Divine Statue.

From now on, his soul would take the form of this statue.

The Soul Divine Statue was, in a way, an avatar of his soul.

Even if Jiang Chen’s soul were to be destroyed, the Soul Divine Statue could take its place and allow him to live on.

Moreover, the Soul Divine Statue possessed immense offensive power and was exceptionally potent when attacking an enemy’s soul.

”Haha, not bad.”

’Now that I have a Soul Divine Statue, have devoured the Corpse Heart Insects, and possess an Immortal Body, it will be incredibly difficult for anyone to kill me.’

Jiang Chen was thoroughly excited.

The benefits he’d gained from becoming the Master of Ghosts were simply too great.

It was enough to make even himself feel invigorated.

By stationing the statue on the seventh level, as long as his Soul Divine Statue remained intact, his own soul would not be destroyed.

Of course, this wasn’t all.

’Oh, right, there’s also the Artifact Refining Technique that the Eighth Generation Ghost Lord, Tian Du, gave me.’

Artifact Refining Technique, as the name implied, was the skill of refining Magical Treasures.

In this world, there was a type of person known as an Artifact Refiner.

Artifact Refiners were different from Alchemists.

Alchemists were a class of Martial Cultivators who refined Elixirs.

And Artifact Refiners, naturally, were Martial Cultivators who refined Magical Treasures.

The two were different, but both held absolute status and standing within the Martial Cultivation Realm.

After all, every Martial Cultivator needed to advance their Cultivation, would frequently get injured, and required things like Elixirs.

But there was one thing that was absolutely indispensable.

Magical Treasures.

A powerful Magical Treasure could multiply a Martial Cultivator’s Combat Power several times over.

In fact, in many cases, a powerful Magical Treasure could determine the outcome of a battle.

The Eighth Generation Ghost Lord, Tian Du, had been a powerful Artifact Refiner.

Now, he had passed on all of his Artifact Refining Techniques, including his experience, to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen began to process Tian Du’s Artifact Refining Technique.

He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

He was already an Alchemist, and now he had obtained the Artifact Refining Technique. In his past life, he hadn’t had much contact with it.

The Magical Treasures he used had all been refined for him by other Artifact Refiners.

And powerful Artifact Refiners were, naturally, also deeply respected by Martial Cultivators.

’The Great Dao is simple, and all paths lead to the same destination.’

In other words, whether it was Alchemy Skill or Artifact Refining Technique, once pushed to their limits, both would allow one to touch upon the fundamental rules of the world and the principles of the Great Dao.

Therefore, obtaining the Artifact Refining Technique now was also a boon for Jiang Chen.

He could comprehend the Dao and the rules of the world while refining artifacts.

Although learning both Alchemy Skill and Artifact Refining Technique at the same time could easily divide one’s focus, in this life, Jiang Chen’s Alchemy Skill didn’t require too much of his energy. Therefore, also practicing the Artifact Refining Technique wouldn’t have much of an impact on him.

He immediately immersed his mind and began to study the Artifact Refining Technique.

Artifact Refining Technique was the art of refining Magical Treasures.

The ranks of Magical Treasures were divided into Dharma Artifacts, Treasure Artifacts, Spiritual Treasures, Immortal Artifacts, Acquired Spiritual Treasures, Innate Spiritual Treasures, Holy Artifacts, and Divine Artifacts.

And refining Magical Treasures also required a large amount of Artifact Refining Materials.

Fortunately, Jiang Chen had already collected quite a few materials.

He first spent a period of time studying the Artifact Refining Technique.

However, successfully refining a Magical Treasure was not such a simple matter.

Jiang Chen was a complete novice, starting from scratch.

After a full month, Jiang Chen had completely comprehended the Artifact Refining Technique passed down to him by Tian Du.

On the altar, he let out a long breath.

He had completely mastered the Artifact Refining Technique.

However, the next problem was how to successfully refine a Magical Treasure.

And when refining Magical Treasures, one naturally had to start with the simplest Dharma Artifacts.

Artifact refining was also divided into several steps.

Material selection, smelting, forming the embryo, forging, and shaping.

Jiang Chen was already very familiar with the steps.

But he had yet to perform them even once.

But Jiang Chen found himself in a predicament.

Because now that he had learned the Artifact Refining Technique, he didn’t have any tools to refine Magical Treasures.

’It seems I need to find a place where I can go to train and refine Magical Treasures,’ Jiang Chen mused.

Refining Magical Treasures was not a simple matter.

He was still a complete beginner; just learning the theory was useless. He needed to personally refine Magical Treasures to make any progress.

Otherwise, all his knowledge would amount to nothing.

Therefore, Jiang Chen decided to go out into the world and gain some practical experience.

He needed to hone his Artifact Refining Technique.

Moreover, he now needed artifact refining tools.

Not only that, but Jiang Chen also needed to find a way to restore Liang Yiyi’s appearance and lifespan.

Of course, he also had to find the Spring of Destiny. He wanted to make the Dragon-locking Realm a truly complete world.

Therefore, he couldn’t remain in seclusion forever; he had to go out into the world.

Having made up his mind, Jiang Chen rose and left the altar.

After once again devouring the newly spawned Ghosts on the first level of the Ghost Temple and the Corpse Heart Insects on the second level, Jiang Chen finally walked out of the Ghost Temple.

Standing in the Dragon-locking Realm, he could see the tall and imposing Ghost Temple.

He could enter the Ghost Temple whenever he wished.

”Father, Mother, come here for a moment,” Jiang Chen suddenly called out.

He was preparing to leave the Dragon-locking Realm, but before that, he planned to give his parents some opportunities.

With a wave of his hand, Jiang Chen’s parents, Jiang Han and Xiao Yun, appeared directly in front of him.

”Son, what did you need us for?”

Jiang Han and Xiao Yun had been busy handling the Jiang Family’s affairs recently.

Because the Jiang Family was now together with the Demon Beasts from Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, there were many matters to attend to.

Fortunately, the Demon Beasts were all respectful and obedient toward the Jiang Family members.

Looking at Jiang Chen, the couple was very pleased with their son.

However, their expressions quickly turned to astonishment as they stared at the divine tower that had suddenly appeared before them.

”Son, what is this?”

They asked, looking curiously at the Ghost Temple.

Jiang Chen explained, ”Father, Mother, this is the Ghost Temple.”

”I’m going to send you into the Ghost Temple now. You might be able to obtain some great opportunities inside.”

Since the Ghost Temple was under his control, there would naturally be no danger for his parents if they went inside.

He certainly had his reasons for letting his parents explore the Ghost Temple.

His parents could also devour the Ghosts and Corpse Heart Insects inside to strengthen their souls and perhaps even obtain an Undying Body.

As for what other treasures lay within the Ghost Temple, that would depend on his parents’ luck.

”Alright, we’ll listen to you.”

The couple naturally had no objections.

Jiang Chen then sent the couple into the first level of the Ghost Temple, letting them explore on their own.

After checking to see that all was well in the Dragon-locking Realm, Jiang Chen finally departed.
