Immortal through Beast Taming-Chapter 501 - 72: Treated by the Demon Emperor Like a Cat to Be Slashed
The intelligence brought back by the various Tianjiao made it difficult for the Dao Seekers to digest for a while.
You should know, the initial purpose of sending the Tianjiao of the Celestial Essence Realm into the Source Realm was merely to find the Cultivation Alliance and figure out how to get the Celestial Essence Realm to join it, thereby gaining support from the Cultivation Alliance.
The result was, one of the Tianjiao said that the Celestial Essence Realm would not only be enemies with the Celestial Demon Realm but also seize resources from the jaws of the Cultivation Alliance?
Damn it, even the experienced Dao Seekers felt their scalps tingle; this kid is indeed restless.
"You Ran, what exactly is the situation in the Source Realm now? This Lin Jing, does he really have the audacity to oppose both the Cultivation Alliance and the Celestial Demon Sect? Is he insane?" the Second Ancient Emperor asked the Ancient Race Princess.
Ancient You Ran glanced at everyone, then explained, "Father emperor, when we first entered the Source Realm, it could roughly be divided into four top-level forces."
"They are, respectively, the Celestial Demon Sect, the Cultivation Alliance, and the Star Dust Realm and Cang Hai, led by two native spirit monsters of the Source Realm."
"And the strength of the Divinity Transformation Cultivators in the Source Realm can be roughly divided into five levels."
"The fifth level is the ordinary Divine Body Cultivators. Regardless of top-level Divine Bodies like the Taiyin Body or Taiyang Body, in the Source Realm, they are only the most ordinary Tianjiao..."
"The fourth level is some native spirit monsters of the Source Realm—an unexpected force. Due to the dense Power of Heaven and Earth in the Source Realm, even the most ordinary, bottom-level spirit monsters have strength stronger than most Divine Body Cultivators."
"The third level consists of those who have cultivated into Acquired Immortal Bodies by various means, like me and royal brother, we belong to this tier, and some spirit monsters with better talents or backgrounds also fall into this category."
"The second level is those with Innate Immortal Bodies, like the Master of the Steward Hall from the Cultivation Alliance, Yan Yunshuang, who belongs to this tier. He possesses the Innate Five Thunder Immortal Body, commanding five special celestial thunders, an overwhelmingly strong power. Also included are some well-known monsters among the spirit monsters, like the first great mountain to gain essence in the Source Realm, Yinsi Mountain, and Mingtu Lady, who controls the most primordial Power of Death in the Source Realm."
"As for the strongest few, like the Young Alliance Leader of the Cultivation Alliance, Li Tianyi, who is a Chaos Immortal Body, and the Saint Heir of the Celestial Demon Sect, Sheng Kun, who possesses a perfect Demon Race bloodline while also having seized two Immortal Body Tianjiao, thus having Demon Race bloodline and dual Immortal Bodies. Also, the master of Star Dust Realm, the Meteor Immortal Spirit, who has stayed in the Divinity Transformation Realm for tens of thousands of years, possessing Treasure Beast Divine Techniques, with profound foundations comparable to Li Tianyi and Sheng Kun, and is not inferior in any way... They are known as the Four Kings of the Source Realm."
"At first, we all underestimated the situation in the Source Realm. With the strength of the Celestial Essence Realm, under normal circumstances, it would be very hard to compete for the Immortal Source, even the most ordinary Immortal Source..." Ancient You Ran finished explaining, and everyone fell silent. Although they knew that the Celestial Essence might not be significant in the grand scale of the heavens, they were still somewhat shocked to hear about Chaos Immortal Bodies and Dual Immortal Body Demons afterward.
If these aren’t monsters, then what are? Don’t mention fighting them at the same level, even if Void Profound were to come in person, could they easily surpass these top Tianjiao?
The Dao Seekers also understood why these people came out early; to contend with those Tianjiao wouldn’t be easy and would only waste their years in vain.
"So, you mean the strongest among you right now only belongs to the third tier?" Even those like the Sun Temple’s Buddha Son could only belong to the fourth or fifth tier, the bottom level.
"What about Lin Jing? Does he plan to rely on the Longevity Body, though we haven’t heard of native spirit monsters existing in the Source Realm either, haven’t those guys got longevity as well?" the Demon Emperor inquired.
"His current strength should be able to contend with Innate Immortal Bodies, otherwise, he couldn’t be so outrageously bold," the Second Ancient Emperor spoke.
Ancient You Ran gave a bitter smile and said, "Father emperor, Lin Jing he..."
"Several years ago, the Meteor Immortal Spirit attacked the Celestial Demon Sect’s Saint Heir Sheng Kun, forcing Sheng Kun to withdraw from the Source Realm."
"The Cang Hai Immortal Spirit attacked the main city of the Cultivation Alliance, forcing Li Tianyi to withdraw from the Source Realm, while Lin Jing... managed to repel the Cang Hai Immortal Spirit with the corpses of Immortal Beasts and numerous Source Realm loose cultivator spirit monsters."
"This was when we found out he had already subdued dozens of native spirit monsters of the Source Realm, including Mingtu Lady and Yinsi Mountain... forming a force named the Heaven and Earth Sect."
"By this time, his strength had probably already been on par with the Four Kings."
"And up until we left, even the Meteor Immortal Spirit had been subdued by him."
"With Li Tianyi and Sheng Kun out, the Meteor Immortal Spirit surrendered, and the Cang Hai Immortal Spirit alone couldn’t cause a storm, one could say, Lin Jing was already the unchallenged overlord of the Source Realm... Even his avatars had successively seized the Slaughter Immortal Body and the shadowy emperor spirit monster only second to the Meteor and Cang Hai Immortal Spirits, possessing power not inferior to the Saint Heir of the Demon Sect."
"So, the plan for the Celestial Essence Realm to monopolize Source Realm resources... has already begun from this moment... rather than asking for our opinion, Lin Jing seems more like... notifying us."
With Ancient You Ran’s words falling, the Dao Seekers were momentarily left speechless, all stood there dumbfounded, thinking of saying something but not knowing where to start.
In the silent ruins, each Dao Seeker looked at their Tianjiao, only to see them silently nodding.
"Indeed, Senior Brother Lin also distributed some celestial energy to each of us, letting us bring it back for the seniors to experience its wonder, saying you all would agree with his plan," Shui Lingsu spoke.
"Do I have a share too?" the Heaven-Reaching Tower Master suddenly interjected.
"Naturally, Junior Brother prepared your portion, senior," Xu Qingyao responded, "everyone has a share."
"Good, good, no wonder he sprouted such ambition, having such a Tianjiao is truly the fortune of our Celestial Essence," the Heaven-Reaching Tower Master laughed heartily, "I support, however..."
He suddenly added, "We might not be able to contact the Cultivation Alliance, and they might not find us, but the Celestial Demon Sect does indeed have the coordinates of the Celestial Essence Realm. Who knows when they might attack, and judging by now, won’t the army sent by the Celestial Demon Realm be much stronger than anticipated!!!"
"Without the support from the Cultivation Alliance, how can we fend off?"
"Junior Brother has already obtained intelligence; the Celestial Revenge Demon Emperor from the Celestial Demon Realm is already heading to conquer the Celestial Essence Realm alone, expected to arrive in about a ji (sixty years)!!" Xu Qingyao spoke.
"Only one person?" the Demon Emperor breathed a sigh of relief, "We have so many people, and they only sent one person, do they look down on us?!"
"Then it shouldn’t be a problem."
Xu Qingyao was silent.
Then awkwardly said, "Your Majesty, Junior Brother Lin mentioned, the Celestial Revenge Demon Emperor, even in the entire Celestial Demon Realm, her strength would rank top ten. Even a Seeking Dao cultivator with an Innate Immortal Body, if lacking special skills, wouldn’t last an incense stick’s time against her... she has already conquered many cultivation realms alone."
"We are afraid..."
The Dao Seekers’ scalps tingled; this kid really is a troublemaker. How come even the top ten powers of the Celestial Demon Realm are coming!!!
"But fortunately, Junior Brother tasked us with bringing back the Nebula Concealment Array, with this array, the traces of the Celestial Essence in the stars can be concealed. Unless a True Immortal descends, it would be very hard to be discovered."
"Why didn’t you say earlier!!" The Demon Emperor heaved a sigh, scared for a moment, almost thinking he was going to be sliced like a cat by this said Celestial Revenge Demon Emperor.
