Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 306 The Holy Son Arrives
West Desert.

This desert is located west of the ancient Tianyuan Kingdom, in the opposite direction from Qingzhou, and is extremely far away.

a few days later.

In the far west of the Tianyuan Continent, a spatial vortex condensed, and then nine divine golden thunder dragons pulled a wooden boat out from it.

Several figures appeared on the flying boat.

The Demon Court Lord, dressed in a golden dragon robe, Lin Jing, in a green robe, and an elderly man with blond hair dressed as a coachman.

"The Burial Immortal Volcano is not far away. It is a forbidden area for immortals and gods, and ordinary people cannot approach it. Let's part ways here."

After the Demon Emperor spoke, Lin Jing immediately summoned the dragon carp and instructed the little carp, "Go with His Majesty the Demon Emperor to the Burial Immortal Volcano for cultivation."

"Remember to be obedient. I'll wait for you to return when you reach the Nascent Soul stage." He patted the dragon carp's head.

Looking forward to the birth of the first Nascent Soul pet beast by my side...

"Pop~" The dragon carp nodded, its sharp gaze fixed on the distance, already sensing the terrifying aura of flames ahead.

However, this mere Burial Immortal Volcano...

Waiting for the Dragon Carp Emperor to make a visit!
With the Demon Emperor protecting it, how could it possibly be burned to death?!

"Ancestor Leilong, the safety of the Holy Son is now in your hands. I hope there will be no need for me to intervene."

The Demon Emperor glanced indifferently at the yellow-haired old man, who was the guardian demon ancestor that Lin Jing had finally chosen, the ancestor of the Thunder Dragon Clan!
Lin Jing had thought the Thunder Dragon scales and blood given to him by the Thunder Dragon Clan would be enough, but it turned out to be far from sufficient.

On this journey west, Lin Jing is determined to forge an invincible physical body. He feels that his current physical strength is far from sufficient, so keeping the Thunder Dragon Ancestor by his side makes it easier to learn from him how to temper his body…

As for becoming the protector of the Holy Son, Ancestor Lei Long gladly accepted. As long as he could please the Holy Son, perhaps he could become the first demon ancestor in the Demon Court to complete the transformation!

To make Lin Jing, the Holy Son, feel the sincerity of the Thunder Dragon Clan and to repay the kindness of Lin Jing in helping the Thunder Dragon Clan's little princess take human form, it even summoned nine talented prodigies from the collateral branches of the Thunder Dragon Clan to pull Lin Jing's carriage!
Each of them has reached the Nascent Soul Demon King cultivation level!
If Lin Jing hadn't refused, it would have even wanted to drag the little princess of the Thunder Dragon Clan to serve Lin Jing's daily needs.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, with me here, no one can harm a single hair on His Highness the Holy Son's head. If anyone does, I will jump headfirst into the Burial Immortal Volcano!" Ancestor Thunder Dragon said resolutely.

Its current form as a blond coachman is a transformation, not a demonic transformation. It is to make it easier to follow around the forest, otherwise, its thousand-meter-long true form would not be easy to move around in human territory.

"Hmm." The Demon Emperor nodded, then grabbed the dragon carp and disappeared from Lin Jing and the others' sight.

After the Demon Emperor left, the Thunder Dragon Ancestor breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Highness, where do we go next?" he asked.

"Should we go directly to Jin Guang Temple?"

Lei Long Lao Zu also knew that Lin Jing's mission was to obtain the Golden Light Gu.

In the western desert, there are eighty-one Buddhist cities, and each Buddhist city has a temple.

Jin Guang Temple is one of the stronger temples among the eighty-one Buddhist temples.

The abbot of the temple had reached the peak of the Void Profound realm and held considerable influence within the Buddhist community.

In terms of strength, he belongs to the top tier of monks under the current Buddhist leader, and is the head monk of Taiyang Temple.

"No rush. To do a good job, you must first have the right tools. Let's go to the Demon Temple first," Lin Jing said after thinking for a moment.

"The Temple of Exorcising Demons?" Ancestor Lei Long was taken aback, not understanding what the Holy Son was doing here.

Lin Jing smiled and said, "The abbot of my Beast Taming Sect and the chief monk of the Demon Extermination Temple have some connection."

"It would have been fine if you hadn't come to the Western Desert, but since you're here, you should naturally pay a visit first." The abbot of the Demon Extermination Temple is the same high monk who entered the ancient kingdom, joined the Demon Extermination Bureau, and worked with the Beast Taming Sect and other sects of the Great Wilderness to seal the immortal demons.

It was this Dharma body left behind by the eminent monk that helped Lin Jing and the leaf rat develop their Buddhist cultivation talents.

If Lin Jing were to go to the Buddhist sect to retrieve the Gu poison directly as the Holy Son of the Demon Court, he would certainly encounter many twists and turns.

However, if I can get some help from the head monk of the Demon Exorcism Temple, then my subsequent process of removing the Gu should be much smoother.

Even with the Demon Emperor backing him up, Lin Jing wouldn't be so foolish as to choose the difficult mode to complete the mission. If there's an easy mode... he'd naturally choose the easy mode.

First, try to build connections with acquaintances!

The world of cultivation is also a society based on personal relationships!
…………

The Demon-Slaying Temple is located in the Demon-Slaying City.

In this western desert, there are also a few mortals, but the desert living environment is harsh and there are many demons and monsters, so mortals can only rely on Buddhism to survive.

Therefore, all the ordinary people in the eighty-one Buddhist cities of the Western Desert are Buddhist believers, and they will send children with cultivation talent to temples for cultivation.

However, compared to the ancient kingdoms, the human population in the Western Desert was still far too small, which was why Buddhism wanted to spread its teachings in the ancient kingdoms…

"Abbot, Yinling Temple requested our assistance a few days ago. The demons suppressed beneath Yinling City are about to break free of their seal, and even reinforcing the seal has been ineffective!"

"Abbot, Xingjue Temple also sought our help a few days ago. Three eminent monks from Xingjue Temple have now been possessed by demons!"

"Yunyou Temple..."

Inside the Demon Extermination Temple, an old monk in white robes closed his eyes, listened to the report from his disciples below, and slowly spoke: "The arrival of the Golden Age is both a disaster and an opportunity for our Buddhist sect."

"Countless years ago, the Western Desert was a rich land, but eventually, due to the war in the Celestial Palace, it became desolate and a dead land."

"Later, countless demons and monsters emerged. Of all the sects on this continent, only our Buddhist sect chose to establish itself in this desolate Western Desert for tens of thousands of years in order to suppress these chaotic demons and monsters..."

"Besides the fact that we Buddhists are compassionate and cannot bear to see demons wreaking havoc on the world, it is also because suppressing demons is a form of practice for us Buddhists and a manifestation of great merit."

"These demons were born from an ancient war. They are indescribable and impossible to eradicate. They can only be sealed in the earth's veins and suppressed by numerous temples. Originally, this situation would have continued indefinitely. However, the opening of the Golden Age has loosened the seals on these demons."

"Very well. After tens of thousands of years of development, our Buddhist sect is no longer the same as it used to be. These resurrected demons will become nourishment for the growth of our Buddhist disciples."

"Since several major temples have requested assistance, is there anyone among you willing to exorcise the demons? If these demons are completely eliminated, it would undoubtedly be a great act of merit." The white-robed old monk looked at his disciples, who all wore expressions of distress.

That's right.

They're good at dealing with ordinary monsters and demonic cultivators.

However, these demons, born from the resentment of fallen immortals and the tragic deaths of powerful beings, combined with various bizarre phenomena, are truly difficult to view according to common sense...

Even after tens of thousands of years of development, and despite the significant increase in the strength of Buddhism, the demons and monsters recorded in those ancient texts are still far too terrifying…

Just as the temple was quiet, almost at the same time, several monks suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and looked in alarm toward the direction outside the city.

"Abbot, many powerful demonic beasts have arrived..."

The white-robed old monk frowned, sensing the aura of a demon ancestor. He couldn't help but extend his divine sense, and saw nine thunder dragons pulling a flying boat, which slowly came to a stop outside the Demon-Slaying City. On the flying boat was a young man in a green robe, with a squirrel perched on his shoulder.

"Lin Jing, the Holy Son of the Beast Taming Sect, has come to pay a visit."
