Immortal through Beast Taming-Chapter 439 - 10: Good Little Sister
"Run, why aren’t you running now."
Gu Youran was stopped by Fang Wuming, behind him, members of the Celestial Demon Sect were in pursuit.
The Celestial Demon Sect cultivator glanced over Gu Youran and Fang Wuming, then laughed.
"Another unlucky one being chased into the mountains? You seem to be the cultivator who sneaked into the Cultivation Alliance headquarters during the last Immortal Source battle and stole, aren’t you?"
"Celestial Demon Sect!!!" Fang Wuming’s expression changed upon seeing Gu Youran unharmed, but then noticing the Celestial Demon Sect cultivators chasing after them.
How did these Celestial Demon Sect cultivators also enter the Yin Si Mountain?!
Fang Wuming focused on Gu Youran, concluding that she must have an extremely valuable treasure that the demon sect cultivators were unwilling to abandon!
"No need to run anymore." Gu Youran stopped fleeing, looking at Fang Wuming.
Although she didn’t know Fang Wuming, she recognized the array he was guarding nearby.
That array was set up with the luck dragon vein as its core, originating from the Celestial Essence Ancient Country, something she was very familiar with.
At this point, Gu Youran was even more certain that her brother Gu Xinghe was also here.
"Brother, save me."
She shouted into the distance. Ordinary methods couldn’t break through the array, but this array was originally taught to Lin Jing by the first Ancient Emperor. As a cultivator of the Ancient Race, Gu Youran naturally had a way to send a sound transmission. This was a special magic used by Ancient Race cultivators to call their seclusive ancestors.
Gu Youran’s shout left Fang Wuming stunned, the Celestial Demon Sect cultivator also stunned, and even the Mountain God was stunned!
Especially the Mountain God, who had just seen Gu Youran running towards the forbidden area and was about to intervene to prevent any disturbance to that peculiar person controlling the bodies of Immortal Beasts, but Gu Youran calling for her brother was unexpected.
The two... know each other?
"Damn, they do seem to know each other." It dawned on the Mountain God as he realized that the dragon vein offered to him and the one Lin Jing used to set up the array had similar features, likely originating from the same region.
Siblings?
Fang Wuming was dumbfounded.
The Celestial Demon Sect cultivator frowned as well; did this female cultivator have an acquaintance within these Yin Si Mountains?
But, so what.
He remained expressionless, confident that he could handle anyone seeking the Mountain God’s protection within these mountains.
True strength does not rely on such a Mountain God...
"No one can save you——" He directly attacked, ignoring Fang Wuming, a massive shadowy Celestial Demon arm reaching out, its dark palm grasping for Gu Youran.
But in the next instant, with a "boom," the Celestial Demon Cultivator’s face changed drastically. Following the "bang," that enormous Celestial Demon arm, existing separately from the cultivator’s body, was pierced by a beam of light and exploded across the skies!!!
Tracing the afterimage of the light, there floated in the sky not far away a demon pill exuding the might of the five elements.
And facing it was a squirrel standing on a leaf, carrying a slightly cracked bamboo cannon, looking at Gu Youran with a bewildered expression.
"Poof————" The Celestial Demon cultivator hadn’t yet reacted when the perfected Celestial Demon Finger was blasted apart by the squirrel’s mechanical cannon, causing the Celestial Demon cultivator to spit blood violently in shock, staring in disbelief at the out-of-nowhere squirrel.
"How is this possible!" He was incredulous.
The power of that strike just now was comparable to a Void Profound stage magic, stronger than an immortal technique activated with immortal energy. Where did this Divinity Transformation stage squirrel come from!!!
At this moment, the squirrel was quite pleased with the new weapon’s power. Although items like the Mechanical Bamboo Spear had phased out of history, the evolved Glazed Immortal Pupil could enhance various material qualities. After a period of effort, the Mechanical Bamboo Spear was upgraded by the squirrel to a quality on par with supreme magical treasures. Combined with its own demon pill as ammunition... the combined power was entirely comparable to a pseudo-immortal artifact.
The power was so great that the bamboo gun almost exploded, making the squirrel feel it couldn’t keep up this act; it was too resource-intensive...
"Brother~~?" However, what the squirrel was most curious about was when Lin Jing became the brother of the Ancient Race princess.
Meanwhile, seeing the squirrel, Gu Youran also had a bizarre expression.
Wait a minute, it’s not her brother!
She remembered, her father did gift a supreme dragon vein to the Demon Court Saint Child.
So, the dragon vein she sensed was Lin Jing’s!
A misunderstanding indeed, but Gu Youran wasn’t embarrassed. Whether it was Gu Xinghe or Lin Jing, it seemed she was saved.
"So it’s you."
Simultaneously, the guardian of Lin Jing, the squirrel turned its head. At this moment, because of the summons, Lin Jing paused his seclusion, emerged from the cave, and ascended to the sky, looking towards Gu Youran.
"Squeak!" The squirrel blinked back, returning to Lin Jing’s shoulder. Lin Jing patted the squirrel’s head, then looked at the Celestial Demon Sect cultivator.
"Who are you!!"
The Celestial Demon Sect cultivator’s pupils contracted; although Lin Jing’s cultivation was only at the initial stage of Divinity Transformation, seeing that mysterious squirrel demon beast obediently perched on Lin Jing’s shoulder, he felt an incomprehensible pressure.
"Well done." Lin Jing thought, this Ancient Race princess ended up leading a Celestial Demon Sect cultivator here.
Just as well, he could use this Celestial Demon Sect cultivator to gain information on the Celestial Demon Sect in the Origin Realm and then infiltrate it as an undercover operative.
"You need not know anymore......"
He once again fixed his gaze on the Celestial Demon Sect cultivator, his eyes like those staring at a dead man. Witnessing Lin Jing’s indifferent expression, the Celestial Demon Sect cultivator instantly felt his scalp tingle, an overwhelming sense of death enveloped his heart, his instinct told him that he must not antagonize this person, or he would surely meet a fate worse than death.
"Damn it..." The Celestial Demon Sect cultivator, being decisive and rational, knew an Acquired Immortal Body was already challenging enough, and now with a mysterious and terrifying Beast Taming youth joining the fray, he immediately activated his Celestial Demon Body, aiming to elevate his cultivation to the Void Profound Realm, using world principles to forcefully escape the Origin Realm, abandoning this fight!
"He’s trying to escape!"
The Celestial Demon Sect cultivator began burning his life force. Both Gu Youran and Fang Wuming saw through his intentions, and Lin Jing naturally saw it too.
"Stay put."
Lin Jing raised his hand, simultaneously unleashing the sealed demon bloodline power of the Celestial Demon avatar against this Celestial Demon Sect cultivator. The cultivator instantly exhibited a look of extreme terror, his Celestial Demon force was suppressed in an instant, and the Celestial Demon Body activation failed!
"Who exactly are you————" he yelled in fright, incredulous of Lin Jing’s identity, wondering why he wielded a demon bloodline only Saint Heir-level figures of the Celestial Demon Sect could possess, but now, under Lin Jing’s suppression with demon bloodline paired with the technique of divine control, he found himself like a subjugated pet beast, unable to speak further.
Bam.
He was directly slammed to the ground from the sky by Lin Jing’s counterattack, his body and head pressed firmly against the ground, trembling and struggling. Seeing this, both Gu Youran and Fang Wuming gasped; this Celestial Demon Sect cultivator was not weak, yet in Lin Jing’s hands, he couldn’t even manage to escape.
"Bind him." Lin Jing commanded, and the little squirrel summoned vines, tying up the prostrated Celestial Demon Sect cultivator. It was then that Lin Jing redirected his focus to Gu Youran, showcasing what he thought was a kind smile.
"Princess sister, it seems I accidentally saved your life just now. How about giving me a few dragon veins as thanks? Otherwise, they’ll be extorted by this Mountain God, might as well benefit our own people."
Gu Youran: ...
Mountain God: ?
