Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 324 The power of ghosts and gods
"impossible."

"Absolutely impossible."

After Lin Jing revealed the sealed ghost, it can be said that no one in the Buddhist community was willing to believe it.

From the Buddhist prodigies at the Golden Core stage to the Buddhist powerhouses at the Void Profound stage.

"Master!" Qin Siyuan, who had been defeated by Lin Jing before, looked at Master Jingxin with disbelief.

Although this nun at the Void Profound stage was unwilling to believe it, her divine sense told her that it was all true.

Inside the Buddha-Demon Pearl was indeed the Void Ghost Bride, whom the Buddhist sect had temporarily abandoned to deal with.

what is going on…

This ghost bride is definitely not someone to be trifled with.

“Ancestor Lei Long, no…” Master Wu Mo in white robes looked towards the outside of the hall.

With the help of Ancestor Leilong, it's not impossible for Lin Jing and his group to kill a Void Profound Ghost. However, directly killing a Void Profound Ghost and sealing it inside a Golden Core cultivator are two completely different concepts.

The latter is significantly more difficult.

Even someone with a Sun God Body like Taiyoji Doki, a physique that is a nemesis of ghosts, would absolutely not be able to seal a Void Profound Ghost within his body during the Golden Core stage. Let alone the Golden Core stage, even the Nascent Soul stage would be hopeless.

So how exactly did this Holy Son of the Beast Taming Sect manage to do it?
"Holy Son of the Demon Court, have you forgotten something?"

The other Buddhist prodigies were speechless and shocked when faced with the ghost bride. However, after a moment of silence, the monk Daohui from the Sun Temple questioned her.

He wasn't actually interested in the Golden Light Gu. The Golden Light Gu was very useful for Buddhist cultivators who cultivated the Golden Body, but he cultivated the Sun Sutra, the supreme Yang Buddhist Dharma, so he didn't need the Golden Light Gu much. The reason he got involved was simply because he didn't want the demon race's holy son to steal the opportunity from Buddhism.

If the Holy Son of the Demon Court were to successfully obtain the inheritance, what would become of Buddhism's reputation?

Lin Jing's performance has indeed exceeded his expectations, but that doesn't mean he should just give it up.

"The final test is not only about who can seal the higher-level ghosts, but also about who can wield more ghostly and divine power while in a conscious state!"

"If you've only successfully sealed her away, but can't control her power, then it doesn't count as a success..."

"Maybe something unexpected happened to her, which gave you an opportunity to take advantage of her."

Dao Hui remembered that the Ghost Bride was a mixed ghost, and her state was extremely unstable. If he was not mistaken, Lin Jing should have taken advantage of the Ghost Bride's chaotic internal struggle and used the power of the protectors to barely seal her away.

However, even if he successfully sealed it, Dao Hui absolutely did not believe that Lin Jing could control this mysterious and powerful ghostly force!

Just like a Golden Core cultivator who absolutely cannot activate a top-grade magic weapon, if he tries to force it, he will die from exhaustion.

Even with the Ghost Bride's full cooperation, the power of a ghost god at the Void Profound level is absolutely impossible for a Golden Core cultivator to control.

Dao Hui grasped this point precisely. He believed that Lin Jing had indeed successfully sealed the Ghost Bride within his body through some incomprehensible means. However, sealing the Ghost Bride did not mean that he could withstand her power. As long as Lin Jing could not control the Ghost Bride's power, it would be useless no matter how high the level of the ghost he sealed was.

The so-called seal will be nothing but a joke. The seal cannot suppress or use any of its power, which means that the seal is as fragile as paper to the sealed ghost and can be broken at any time.

In this situation, how can one have the face to say that they have successfully sealed away the ghost?

At that time, there will be an excuse to eliminate Lin Jing from this angle.

After all, what Jin Guang Temple was looking for was a Buddhist prodigy who could control the power of the Golden Light Gu; simply sealing it within someone's body would be a waste. Dao Hui's words were also echoed by the other Buddhist prodigies; even if they couldn't obtain the Golden Light Gu, they didn't want Lin Jing, an outsider, to get it!
"Indeed." Many prodigies looked at each other, not quite believing that Lin Jing could control the power of the Ghost Bride. If even a trace of the Ghost Bride's power could make Lin Jing lose his way and become possessed, then this seal would be meaningless.

“Master Daohui is right,” a group of Buddhist geniuses echoed.

“Senior Immortal, what I said should make sense, right?” Monk Daohui also reminded Immortal Monk not to rush into a decision.

However, before the Immortal Monk could respond, Lin Jing shook his head slightly.

"He won't shed tears until he sees the coffin." He couldn't help but look at the monk Daohui, whose head was ablaze.

As Lin Jing retrieved the Buddha-Demon Pearl, an extremely cold and sinister power emanated from him.

He snorted coldly. Normally speaking, what the monk Daohui said was right. The power revealed by the ghost bride was not something that he, a Golden Core cultivator, could control.

However, the other party was wrong in that they did not take his status as an imperial official seriously.

He is not simply a Buddhist practitioner.

He was indeed unable to control the power of the ghost bride through Buddhist cultivation methods.

However... now that Lin Jing has consumed ten years of his lifespan to activate his Golden Core and the Divine Control Technique, the wisp of ghostly power that the Ghost Bride actively released was immediately controlled by Lin Jing!
boom! ! !
Lin Jing's long black hair danced wildly, and his entire body was enveloped in red light under the intertwining power of ghosts and gods. His cyan robe was dyed red, and his soul power was terrifyingly enhanced.

"What do you want to do..." Faced with the awe-inspiring power that Lin Jing suddenly unleashed, Dao Hui's pupils shrank, and he thought to himself, "This guy can actually control the power of the Void Profound Ghost."
What a joke.

Moreover, he had only questioned him, yet this Holy Son of the Demon Court had developed murderous intent towards him!
Dao Hui broke out in a cold sweat.

Sensing Lin Jing's killing intent, he quickly awakened the terrifying ghost sealed within his Buddha-Demon Pearl, intending to use its power to fight the enemy. However, to Dao Hui's horror, the ghost sealed within his Buddha-Demon Pearl became somewhat out of control upon sensing only a trace of the Ghost Bride's aura, seemingly in fear.

"Stop, Holy Son!!"

Sensing Lin Jing's killing intent, the Immortal Monk was also startled. Just as he was about to intervene, a bolt of lightning struck his mind.

"Do not interfere in the fighting among the younger generation. Rest assured, His Highness the Holy Son can control it."

At present, the forest is indeed filled with overwhelming killing intent. However, this killing intent is not naturally generated in the forest, but is influenced by the power of the Ghost Bride.

The power of the Void Ghost was still too strong. Even a trace of its power almost caused Lin Jing's emotions to be dominated. This killing intent was only a small part of the negative emotions within the power of the ghost.

At this moment, what affected Lin Jing the most was the Ghost Bride's obsession. Under the influence of the Ghost Bride's obsession, Lin Jing's mind was filled with the female cultivator with the sword in her heart. He was almost possessed by the Ghost Bride's longing and became a part of her. The monk Dao Hui in front of him became the culprit who caused the death of the Ghost Bride's beloved.

If it were any other cultivator, they would probably have already killed Monk Daohui under the influence of the power of the ghosts and gods.

Fortunately, Lin Jing had undergone specialized training. In that instant, the Ice Soul Gu merged with Lin Jing. Through its cultivation of the Path of Obsession during this period, the Ice Soul Gu quickly helped Lin Jing freeze these negative influences, allowing him to regain his clear consciousness in an instant and perfectly control the power of the ghosts and gods.

He unleashed a palm strike, and a despairing force swept over. Monk Daohui tried to resist with his own power, but as a Nascent Soul cultivator, even if his power could restrain the power of ghosts and gods, how could it compare to the Void Profound Power that Lin Jing had expended ten years of his lifespan to control?

boom!
As expected, he coughed up blood and flew backward, the flames on his head went out, and he crashed next to Qin Siyuan, a disciple of Abbess Jingxin, where Qin Siyuan looked at him with a horrified gaze.

"This……"

Qin Siyuan was shocked. Dao Hui was a genius ranked in the top fifteen of the Fortune Ranking, and a Buddhist monster who was expected to enter the top ten after the Nascent Soul stage. Although he did not get along with Dao Hui, he still acknowledged the other party's strength. This Holy Son of the Demon Court was so terrifying... He had actually wanted to fight this monster before!
