Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 290 The Path of Ghosts and Gods
Ghostly flames.

Although this fire is a top-tier exotic fire, its special feature lies in its growth potential.

Only by burning one's soul can one significantly improve quality.

The Netherworld Flame of the Dragon Carp is actually far from being of top quality. However, now that His Majesty the Demon Emperor has promised to end the lives of all powerful enemies, Lin Jing can take this opportunity to cultivate a few more spells.

The Heavenly Demon Divine Sense Technique is one of them...

This technique of burning soul-consuming ghost fire is naturally one of them.

With so many powerful enemies within Tongtian City and on this scroll, Lin Jing felt there was a high probability he could push the Netherworld Ghost Flame to its limit...

"Lord of the Demon Court, this is Tongtian City, the territory of the Tongtian Tower. During the Pill Gathering, you dare to attack us? Do you not take the Tongtian Tower seriously?!"

"My disciple is a participant in this year's Pill Gathering..." Ancestor Tianhuo was forced to kneel on the ground by the Emperor's might, bleeding from his seven orifices. Knowing that he was no match for the Demon Emperor, he planned to use the prestige of the Tower of Babel to intimidate the Demon Emperor.

As soon as he entered the city, he was warned by the Tower of Babel that during the Pill Gathering, he was not allowed to cause trouble in the city.

All grudges will be resolved after the Dan Conference concludes.

Then even this Demon Emperor has to abide by the rules!

However, the Demon Emperor did not take the threat of the Heavenly Fire Ancestor seriously at all. With just his pressure, he rendered the Heavenly Fire Ancestor unable to move or exert any power. He was pressed to the ground like a withered old man, looking extremely miserable.

"Lord of the Demon Court, you..."

At this moment, the three alchemists of the Tower of Babel were also at a loss. According to their duties, they should have maintained the order of the alchemy gathering, since there were also alchemists participating in the gathering who were under the power of the Demon Emperor!
They were forced to the ground by the oppressive force, looking miserable and utterly incapable of continuing the alchemy...

This act of disrupting the alchemy gathering should be seen as a provocation against the Tower of Babel; however, the target of this provocation was someone that the three major alchemy sects were powerless to do anything about.

"Tower Master, Tower Master..." They could only anxiously call out to the Tower Master who was in seclusion.

However, how could the Tower Master of Tongtian not sense such a commotion? At this moment, he was in another dimension, facing the Demon Emperor together with the spirit of the elixir, and his heart was filled with shock.

"What, are you going to stop me?"

The Demon Emperor, in his demon form, looked at the Tower Master and the Spirit of the Immortal Pill, holding a tiger seal that exuded a terrifying aura that made the Tower Master extremely wary. This was the supreme treasure of the ancient divine tiger demon race, which could only be activated by those with demon blood.

The Demon Lord's strength was already terrifying due to his rare beast bloodline, and now that he has successfully transformed into human form and received the inheritance of the ancient demon race, his strength is probably even more unimaginable.

"Don't argue, don't fight." The spirit of the elixir nervously transmitted its voice to the Tower Master of Tongtian, saying, "Old man, I just sensed the aura of the 'Elixir Tribulation'. Isn't the Elixir Tribulation only something that happens when an intelligent elixir is born in the lower realm? How can someone else trigger the Elixir Tribulation?"

"What if this pill tribulation affects me? I can't do it, I'm scared..."

Faced with the retreat of the spirit of the elixir, the master of the Tongtian Tower let out a heavy sigh and said, "Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on successfully finding the path to human form. It is only natural that you would stand up for the Holy Son of the Demon Court. However, please do not harm the alchemists of my Tongtian Tower."

"Naturally, the core alchemists of your Tower of Babel are all sensible and did not board the Heavenly Demon Scroll. However, don't blame me for cleaning up the outer forces of your Tower of Babel." After the Demon Emperor finished speaking, the Tower Master of the Tower of Babel acquiesced.

I don't want to fight this demon lord whose strength is unknown.

Seeing that the Tower Master of Tongtian did not want to fight, the Demon Emperor also showed a bored expression.

"Forget it, I'll just go to the Yin Corpse Sect headquarters later, drag the Corpse Emperor out and beat him up. I need to let Qingzhou know the strength of this Emperor after his transformation."

This guy… The Tower Master broke out in a cold sweat. Just how much has the Demon Court Lord's strength increased after transforming into human form?
…………

Outside, both the Nine-Headed Demon Lord and the Gu Cult elders were suppressed; they no longer possessed the demeanor of Void Profound Masters.

Similarly, those who did not want to die also threatened the Demon Emperor.

"Lord of the Demon Court, my Yin Corpse Sect has no enmity with your Demon Court. Do you want to start a war with my sect?"

"Even if you kill me here, His Majesty the Corpse Emperor can resurrect me. At that time, the Corpse Sect and the Demon Court will be locked in a life-or-death struggle!!"

This threatening tone, like that of the Heavenly Fire Ancestor, spread throughout Tongtian City.

However, neither the Demon Emperor nor Lin Jing were threatened at this point.

"I am... a participant in the Dan Competition..."

The red-haired woman who was standing next to Lin Jing was burned to ashes by Lin Jing's ghost fire, even though it was during the grand Pill Gathering.

Not only her, but everyone on the field who had ascended the Heavenly Demon Scroll, regardless of their status... the flames released from Lin Jing's body were like a ghostly dragon swallowing them.

Faced with Lin Jing's slaughter of participants in the Pill Gathering and his killing of Pill Dao geniuses, the three Pill Sects were sweating profusely, standing high in the sky, not daring to speak or stop him.

The Tower Master has already sent a message to the Twelve Pill Sects, instructing them to allow the Demon Court's Holy Son to continue his actions.

This made the three major alchemy sects feel very uneasy.

"Netherworld Ghost Fire... The Demon Emperor actually helped him improve his magic." The three great alchemy sects never expected that the dragon carp would actually master the Ghost Fire technique of the Netherworld Palace.

This time, Lin Jing was like a ghost or god who had walked out of hell, causing even those around him who were one or two realms higher than him to tremble and feel fear.

He walked past the alchemist Kikyō, who looked terrified. However, Lin Jing did not indiscriminately kill those who had not yet entered the Heavenly Demon Scroll in order to cultivate the Ghost Fire Technique.

"Lin Jing, you..."

The Sky-Splitting Sword Ancestor stared in shock at Lin Jing, who had transformed into a dragon and was slowly rising. It seemed that she had no room to make a move now!

"Forest Realm!"

The academy's vice dean looked at Lin Jing, into his eyes, and seemed to understand everything. This immortal body, from now on, would be completely cut off from the ancient kingdom. From this day forward, he would no longer be a cultivator of the ancient kingdom, no longer a student of the academy, and no longer a demon-slaying guard of the Demon Extermination Division...

He was completely transformed into the Holy Son of the Demon Court, the hope for the revival of the demon race.

A new generation of immortal beings is about to embark on a path of demons and gods that no immortal being has ever walked before... becoming the hope of the demon race.

"So this is what the Sect Management Office meant when they said the fate of demons is greater than that of humans...?" The vice dean of the academy had never imagined that the Sect Management Office's judgment would be so accurate.

At this moment, Lin Jing did not say much. He simply clasped his hands slightly to the Sky-Splitting Sword Ancestor and the Vice Dean of the Academy before flying away from the alchemy grounds. He no longer cared about the outcome of the alchemy competition.

His first target was the Gu Cult elder, who was suppressed by the Demon Emperor at the edge of the barrier and had not yet been killed, and whose body was parasitized by the Thunder Tribulation Gu!
"As expected, cultivators from the Gu God Sect have arrived..."

"But there's only one? What a pity..."

"Thunder Tribulation Gu... I never thought that the Ice Soul Gu would actually devour the Ten Great Strange Gu one day."

The Thunder Tribulation Gu is the most unique of all the rare Gu poisons. It renders the poisoned person's physical body and spirit virtually immune to lightning, making them extremely vulnerable to heavenly lightning tribulations and unable to find peace. The power of heavenly lightning is used to intimidate and control the mind! The host of the Thunder Tribulation Gu gains unparalleled lightning power and, as if taking a lightning-avoiding pill, possesses extremely high lightning resistance. However, compared to normal cultivators, they are much more likely to encounter lightning tribulations…
