Immortal through Beast Taming-Chapter 508 - 79: Catastrophe of Tongtian
Lin Jing scrutinized this Corpse Beast Demon Lord.
In his impression, there was no such figure in the Cultivation Realm.
Using his Divine Sense, Lin Jing confirmed the other party’s state, which should be a living dead refined by the Celestial Demon Ancestor.
The physical body and Primordial Spirit appeared unified, but there was an awkward feeling, as if it wasn’t an original body.
However, in terms of mana density, it truly didn’t lose out to a peak Void Profound Cultivator. If the Celestial Demon Ancestor could mass-produce such subordinates, it’s no wonder many forces would find it troublesome.
"The prey unexpectedly delivered itself!!"
Upon seeing Lin Jing, the Corpse Beast Demon Lord’s eyes turned red, and with a hearty laugh, he leaped up, clawing toward Lin Jing.
"Your Highness, be careful!"
Seeing this, Huanli, without a second thought, immediately left the protection range of the Mountain Protection Array, wanting to assist Lin Jing.
But Lin Jing didn’t need any help.
Casually waving, an immortal bull’s skeleton patched with stitches appeared from the ripples in the void, crashing toward the Corpse Beast Demon Lord!
"What is that!"
The Corpse Beast Demon Lord raised an eyebrow, slamming a claw onto the immortal bull, with a "moo", the collision forced the Corpse Beast Demon Lord to be sent flying, spitting blood, while the immortal bull’s skeleton retreated a few steps, its patched body becoming more damaged.
"Stitching for another three years, even an Immortal Beast, once dead, really doesn’t have as strong self-healing as a living Pet Beast," Lin Jing shook his head.
Need to find some time to upgrade corpse stitching techniques from the Corpse Emperor...
"I’ll kill you!!" Sent flying, the Corpse Beast Demon Lord was furious, but at this moment, he also revealed his weakness; though he possessed the mana strength of a peak Void Profound Cultivator, he completely lacked the corresponding spatial attainment of a Void Profound Cultivator.
Not to mention the demon sect assassin in Divinity Transformation encountered by Lin Jing in the Source Realm, even Sheng Kun’s spatial attainments were far superior to this Corpse Beast Demon Lord.
Completely failing to notice when a peak Divinity Transformation squirrel appeared behind him, preparing to launch a sneak attack.
"Squeak. (Don’t move.)"
The back of the Corpse Beast Demon Lord’s head felt cool as he instinctively turned around.
Bang.
A Monster Pill was shot out from the bamboo spear by the Squirrel, blasting the Corpse Beast Demon Lord’s head.
But even without a head, the Corpse Beast Demon Lord was not affected, running around headless, shouting, "What are you waiting for, restore my body!"
He was addressing the endless corpse beasts, one by one, which suddenly began to combust, their body fires igniting like some sacrificial ritual.
Seeing this, Lin Jing frowned and said, "Begone."
With those words, the mountain full of corpse beasts paused and scattered en masse, causing the Corpse Beast Demon Lord’s secret technique to halt, his continuously regenerating head only half repaired, revealing a very hideous expression.
"I want them alive————"
At this stage, Lin Jing was too lazy to deal with this Corpse Beast Demon Lord personally, a monster created with only mana but no corresponding Void Profound attainments could only bully newcomers like Huanli, who also lacked Void Profound attainments.
He turned around to leave, and the Squirrel made an "OK" gesture, waving both paws, causing endless trees to coil toward the Corpse Beast Demon Lord, while the immortal bull’s skeleton also rejoined the battle at this moment to assist the Squirrel.
"Long time no see."
Falling on Thousand Illusions Mountain, Lin Jing watched the surprised Huanli Ancestor and said, "Where is Elder Shen Song?"
"Wait, you’re just going to leave this Corpse Beast Demon Lord?!" Huanli glanced at the entangled Corpse Beast Demon Lord with the immortal bull and Squirrel, completely not as unconcerned as Lin Jing.
"It’s only a puppet, leaving it to them is enough," Lin Jing said. "This immortal bull is from the Yin Corpse Sect’s collection of Immortal Beast bodies, though it suffered quite a lot damage after following me, but dealing with a Corpse Puppet of lesser quality still isn’t a problem."
Lin Jing chuckled, causing ripples in Huanli’s heart.
"Elder Shen Song entered the Mist Forest to hide, the Refining Tao Sect seems to still be interested in the Longevity Body, and the Celestial Demon Venerable even personally went to Immortal Prison Mountain. Fortunately, Elder Shen Song was clever and relocated us early."
"I passed through the Mist Forest and didn’t find them, must have missed them," Lin Jing looked at the Mountain Protection Array and mused, "It seems Elder Shen Song has already broken through to Inquire the Dao."
"What? When did this happen?" Huanli was bewildered, she had been near Elder Shen Song all along, how could she not know!
"With Elder Shen Song’s style, this kind of thing wouldn’t be easily revealed to you. The Beast Taming Sect was deceived by him for many years; this old guy is very cautious," Lin Jing chuckled, knowing that a Dao-seeking spirit monster hiding in the Mist Forest was indeed hard to find.
Though the Celestial Demon Ancestor is strong, Mo Song wasn’t to be underestimated either, after all, he was an old demon head in his past life.
"Lin Saint Heir———" At this moment, the alchemists from the Kikyo Pill Sect also flew up, clasping fists towards Lin Jing.
Lin Jing recognized the person; when he posed as a Wandering Alchemist, it was this Jiegeng Alchemist who informed him of the Qingzhou Pill Assembly and offered him a slot to compete.
Years unseen, the other had unexpectedly become a six-rank Alchemist, having considerable talent.
"This is the pill I researched for purifying corpse poison, but it’s still a semi-finished product, always lacking something. Your Highness’s alchemy insights are astonishing, maybe you can optimize it. Once the pill is made, the corpse beasts of Senluo Dao should be able to recover," said the Jiegeng Alchemist.
"Thank you, Kikyo Pill Sect." These demon beasts, whether from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect or the Demon Court, Lin Jing as the Saint Heir indeed should bear responsibility.
He took the pill, placed it into the void, and slowly asked, "Dragon Carp, can you completely purify these corpse beasts?"
"Roar!!" Amid the fiery clouds, the Dragon Carp, awaiting Lin Jing’s command to "refine all corpse beasts into pills," scratched its head upon hearing it’s a rescue order. But accomplishing such a thing was quite easy.
It sniffed the pill, already having a good idea.
A moment later, it spat forth a mass of purifying Immortal Fire from the sky, spreading a meteor fire rain over the entire Senluo Dao. The corpse beasts ignited by the fire rain sizzled as the corpse poison was burnt away, then one by one restored to their original appearances, bewildered as they glanced around, while the display akin to an Immortal Beast by the Dragon Carp left the Jiegeng Alchemist extremely surprised.
"Your Highness, this fire dragon, has it already... become an Immortal Beast?!"
Faced with the Kikyo Pill Sect’s inquiry, Lin Jing shook his head and said, "Not yet, but soon, soon."
Soon?!!
The fire rain purifying the corpse beasts; seeing this, the Corpse Beast Demon Lord coughed blood, greatly impacted, giving the Squirrel and immortal bull Corpse Puppet an opportunity. However, at this moment, the Corpse Beast Demon Lord’s eyes suddenly brightened, and he burst into laughter.
"It’s the master, the master has arrived in Qingzhou; you are doomed!!!" 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
"Master, save me!!!" the Corpse Beast Demon Lord shouted.
Who could he possibly refer to as master?
Lin Jing and the others were suddenly on high alert, cautious.
But soon, the Corpse Beast Demon Lord fell silent, realizing that the fluctuations he sensed from the Celestial Demon Ancestor weren’t even directed at him.
"Master? I’m here!"
"Where are you going?"
The Corpse Beast Demon Lord’s plea for help was entirely ineffective; the fate of such a level of puppet didn’t matter at all to the Celestial Demon Ancestor, coming to Qingzhou wasn’t even for the Corpse Beast Demon Lord.
Heaven-Reaching City, Heaven-Reaching Tower.
The Celestial Demon Ancestor’s arrival plunged the inner and outer parts of Heaven-Reaching City into chaos, with the Heaven-Reaching Tower Master’s head covered in sweat, and the Immortal Pill Spirit scared out of its wits.
This Celestial Demon Ancestor, not looking for trouble with the Ancient Emperor and Demon Emperor, why come to the Heaven-Reaching Tower!
"It’s over, definitely coming for me," the Immortal Pill Spirit very self-aware: "Old man, you’re no match, quickly call for help!"
