King of Creation Chapter 2019 - 2004: Mystical Mechanism Avatar

"A true physical body?"

Ye Zhen’s brows furrowed. "My current body is already a true physical body, how could..." His voice suddenly cut off as he reacted.

"Those Ancient Demon Gods all leave behind their inheritance before they fall, but every last one of them is a stubborn blockhead, each more pedantic than the last.

If you want to obtain those blockheads’ inheritance, the most basic conditions must be met." Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit Achou said.

"The most basic conditions? What are they?"

"For example, the bloodline of their Demon Clan, and something like an inheritance token. Only when these two points are met is there a possibility of obtaining the inheritance." Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit Achou said.

Ye Zhen’s gaze subconsciously fell on the War Soul Blood Flag. "This War Soul Blood Flag can trigger anomalies in this White Bone Gate, so it’s very likely the inheritance token, right? But as for this Demon Clan bloodline?"

Ye Zhen glanced at the Demon Souls behind him and at his own Demon Marshal’s Avatar, feeling a bit of a headache.

They were all genuine Demon Clan without a doubt, but the problem was they were all Demon Soul–type energy bodies. Spiritual Power and Demonic Qi were fine, but bloodline, they did not have.

As for bloodline, Ye Zhen did have it, but it wasn’t Demon Clan.

"Don’t tell me I have to go catch a Demon and bring it back to drain its blood?" Ye Zhen wore a helpless expression.

"That won’t do either. Every Ancient Demon God is a blockhead. If this kind of White Bone Gate can be opened, who knows what situation will arise.

If you end up making a wedding dress for someone else, you’ll be crying your eyes out then, grandpa!" Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit Achou said irritably.

"Then what do we do?"

"We can’t just give up like this, can we?"

With that thought, Ye Zhen’s brows suddenly lifted. "I suddenly thought of a way."

"What way? No matter how awesome you are, can you conjure up a living Demon Clan out of thin air, you grandpa?" Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit Achou was full of disbelief.

"I really can!"

The instant a strange smile appeared at the corner of Ye Zhen’s mouth, he waved his hand and a ten-zhang-tall corpse of a Three-eyed Demon Clan radiating soaring Demonic Qi suddenly appeared.

This Three-eyed Demon Clan corpse still looked lifelike at this moment. The huge wounds on its abdomen and back, with flipped flesh, were still a bright red.

As soon as it was taken out of the Mirage Dragon Pearl Space, the sound of blood flowing could be heard rushing through its blood vessels.

If Ye Zhen hadn’t given this corpse initial treatment when he first obtained it back then, the moment he took it out now, blood would probably be spurting everywhere!

"This corpse?" Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit turned into the form of a four-horned serpent and shot out of Ye Zhen’s Dark Palace, circling around the corpse.

This corpse was one Ye Zhen had obtained when he fell into a Three-eyed Demon Clan ambush in the Molten Hell Sea and, using the power of the Goldback Crocodile Dragon, took advantage of the moment to behead a Three-eyed Demon Clan Early Dao Realm expert—Jii Yan’s corpse.

Originally, Ye Zhen’s initial plan was to use Jii Yan’s corpse to create a true flesh body for his Demon Marshal’s Avatar.

To let the Demon Marshal’s Avatar become his true Avatar.

But not long after obtaining Jii Yan’s corpse, Ye Zhen had already let the Demon Marshal’s Avatar try; no matter what, it could not fuse with this Jii Yan corpse.

Under normal circumstances, taking it out today would be of no use to Ye Zhen.

However, later in the Yizhi Sand Sea, Ye Zhen obtained from his master Lud Li the lower half of the Mystical Mechanism Dao Method inheritance—the Heavenly Mechanism Secret.

Although the lower half of the Heavenly Mechanism Secret did not contain Primordial Spirit Slaughter Skill and mainly cultivated the Primordial Spirit and Heavenly Mechanism Secret Skills, aside from that, this lower half also contained countless Primordial Spirit Secret Methods and tips for operating and driving Primordial Spirit Power.

Many of those Primordial Spirit Secret Methods were things Ye Zhen had never even heard of. Although most of them were obscure, to the point Ye Zhen might never encounter a chance to use them in his life.

Among them, however, there was one called the Mystical Clone Skill, a Secret Method related to taking possession and soul attachment to refine an Avatar.

Normal possession and soul attachment usually occur when one’s flesh body is destroyed, forcing them to choose the bodies of those who are dying or have just died to possess and attach their soul.

But this method has an enormous impact on one’s Martial Arts path.

No matter how much one tempers it, the Primordial Spirit and flesh god can never achieve one hundred percent integration.

And that’s only in the case of same-race possession and soul attachment. If it crosses races—for example, a Human Clan member possessing a beast, or attaching their soul to a Demon Clan body—the difficulty is even greater, and integration becomes much harder.

Just like now: if Ye Zhen’s Primordial Spirit were to possess and attach to this Demon Clan Dao Realm Jii Yan’s flesh body, he could succeed, but his Martial Arts in this life could forget ever advancing further.

But if Ye Zhen’s Demon Marshal’s Avatar wanted to fuse into Jii Yan’s Three-eyed Demon Clan flesh body, that wouldn’t work.

Inside the Demon Marshal’s Avatar there was only a wisp of Ye Zhen’s Divine Separation, not a complete Primordial Spirit.

This was precisely why the Demon Marshal’s Avatar had never been able to fuse into Jii Yan’s flesh body.

However, the Mystical Clone Skill transmitted by his master Lud Li was different.

The Mystical Clone Skill and the Mirage Clone Technique Ye Zhen had cultivated before were two entirely different concepts.

No matter how advanced the Mirage Clone Technique was, no matter how many Avatars it produced, they were, at the root, still illusory.

But the Mystical Clone Skill transmitted by his master Lud Li was a genuine Divine Ability for forging an external-body Avatar.

You could say that once the Mystical Clone Skill succeeds, it’s like forging another Ye Zhen, an Avatar with real life and all of Ye Zhen’s memories.

Even if Ye Zhen’s True Body is completely reduced to ashes, as long as this Avatar exists, Ye Zhen will still exist in this world, his Primordial Spirit will and consciousness undying.

And because it possesses two different types of power, the limitations it suffers on the Martial Arts path are extremely small.

With ordinary possession and soul attachment techniques, once used, the Martial Arts path is basically cut off.

But once this Mystical Mechanism Avatar is successfully refined, as long as Ye Zhen’s True Body’s Cultivation breaks through, then the Avatar’s Cultivation breakthrough is only a matter of time.

Even if the True Body is completely annihilated, the Avatar can still, through bitter Cultivation, continue walking the Martial Arts path.

It can be said to be an incomparably marvelous Avatar Divine Ability that gives Ye Zhen two lives.

It’s just that although this Mystical Mechanism Avatar Divine Ability is marvelous, the requirements for forging this Mystical Mechanism Avatar are also quite high.

First, it requires a powerful Primordial Spirit, to split off a portion of the Primordial Spirit and inject it in to refine the Avatar.

Second, it requires a strong flesh body.

Otherwise, if the Avatar’s flesh body isn’t strong enough and gets easily destroyed by an enemy, the loss to the True Body would be incomparably tragic.

If that wisp of Primordial Spirit in the Avatar is seized by someone, it’ll be even more troublesome.

Furthermore, when refining an Avatar, one must use a power with similar attributes.

Originally, Ye Zhen couldn’t use this Three-eyed Demon Clan Jii Yan’s flesh body, but Ye Zhen happened to have the Demon Marshal’s Avatar.

In recent days, whenever Ye Zhen had time he would study the Heavenly Mechanism Secret Skills and had already gained some understanding.

Even better, for many of the difficulties in this Mystical Clone Skill left by his master Lud Li, Ye Zhen just happened to have ways to overcome them.

Now, having discovered in the Demon Soul Realm this White Bone Gate that might contain an Ancient Demon God inheritance, at just the right time, Ye Zhen thought of this.

"Seal off the valley. Without my orders, no one is to enter. This Marshal needs to go into seclusion for a few days; you guard well!"

"Yes, we subordinate will strictly obey the Grand Marshal’s military order!"

As Hei Er, Hei Qi, Hei Jiu and the others responded, a sweep of blood light flashed, and Ye Zhen had already disappeared within the valley along with the Three-eyed Demon Clan Jii Yan’s corpse.

The next instant, Ye Zhen appeared inside the Great Hall of Demon Souls.

With a move of his Divine Sense and a flash of blood light from the War Soul Blood Flag, Ye Zhen sealed the entire Great Hall of Demon Souls.

From this moment on, within the Great Hall of Demon Souls, no one but Ye Zhen could enter or leave.

Even Hei Er, Hei Qi, and Hei Jiu, these three Corps Leaders, from this moment forward, could not enter or exit the Great Hall of Demon Souls.

The process of refining the Mystical Mechanism Avatar is incomparably dangerous and cannot tolerate the slightest disturbance.

"Little Cat, Little Demon, guard this place!"

Roar!

Amid a low tiger’s roar, Little Cat leapt onto the highest roof beam in the Great Hall of Demon Souls, its star-bright tiger eyes locking onto every corner of the hall.

As for Little Demon, it silently slipped into the Great Hall of Demon Souls and vanished in an instant.

At the same instant, Ye Zhen gave a low shout. "Out!"

A four-colored Primordial Spirit, three inches and four-tenths tall and vividly identical to Ye Zhen, flew out from the top of his head.
