Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 376 He's really been promoted.
The fairy lily, a plant that is close to the power of the immortals, possesses an immaculate divine body.

The Immaculate Divine Body, simply put, is the ability to be immune to all impurities that affect the body.

As the first ancient emperor just said, to cultivate the Heavenly Demon Finger, one must devour the inner demon power of others.

The power of inner demons is something that most cultivators would avoid at all costs, let alone actively come into contact with.

Inner demons are the greatest threat to a cultivator, and only the cultivator can overcome them on their own. This is because inner demons are contagious; if others help, they may also cause other cultivators to be infected with inner demons and become mentally disturbed.

Therefore, the process of cultivating the Heavenly Demon Finger is extremely dangerous.

Therefore, the first ancient emperor suggested that Lin Jing's avatar should use the Heartless Stone as material and follow the path of heartlessness, so that it could be free from the torment of inner demons to the greatest extent.

Ruthlessness is the best weapon against inner demons.

However, since there is something like the Immortal Lotus in the Forest Realm, the First Ancient Emperor believed it would have the same effect: the Immaculate Divine Body could also effectively remove inner demons.

For the owner of the Immaculate Divine Body, cultivating a demonic art with side effects is a perfect match, much like pairing the Heavenly Demon Body with the Longevity Body.

"I'm just making a choice, seeing if there's a better option than Fairy Water Lily."

"That's all. In the Tianyuan Realm, the Immortal Water Lily is considered one of the best materials for refining external avatars."

"Unless a celestial object is born, but compared to the gentle celestial water lily, celestial objects are not something that ordinary cultivators can refine."

"You little rascal, where did you get this good stuff?"

Lin Jing smiled. The Demon Emperor said the same thing. In the Demon Court, there was nothing better than the Immortal Lotus.

If Lin Jing wants to create an external avatar, he should consider this as a priority.

“From the Misty Forest,” Lin Jing said.

“No wonder…” The first ancient emperor nodded: “That guy, the Forest Sea Dragon Emperor, has reached the pinnacle of the Wood Path. He has the ability to evolve plants to the level of quasi-immortal plants. If it is him, it is not surprising that he could force the growth of an Immortal Water Lily.”

"But to give you something this good, you're really something else. Is it because of your transformation technique?"

"Maybe," Lin Jing said slowly.

After all, once you reach the level of the Forest Dragon Emperor, Yin Yang Whale Emperor, and Lord of the Demon Court, it's extremely difficult to advance further normally.

Transformation is undoubtedly a strange path.

"In short, if you use the Immortal Lotus to refine an external avatar, it will still be somewhat helpful for cultivating the Heavenly Demon Finger."

“Simply cultivating the Heavenly Demon Scripture and the Heavenly Demon Crossing won’t be of much help.”

"It's not a big problem... we can figure out a solution later." Lin Jing didn't plan to dwell on it any longer. Using the Immortal Lotus to refine his avatar had another advantage: after going to the Origin Realm, he could better absorb the Immortal Origin Qi through the avatar and become stronger.

Moreover, this incarnation will be more suitable for immortal techniques that require immortal power to activate than the original body.

Although Lin Jing currently lacks immortal techniques, he possesses the Book of Divine Spirits, which makes it quite convenient for him to summon projections of ancient immortals and have them impart immortal techniques to him.

…………

Soon after, Lin Jing entered the hourglass of time and began to refine his external avatar.

As for the first ancient emperor, he wandered around the Martial Emperor City out of boredom.

Before long, the first ancient emperor's eyes lit up as he discovered a talented individual.

"Acquired spiritual constitution?"

"The Spiritual Fortune Body, isn't this the physique I created to increase one's fortune? However, the Spiritual Fortune Body is extremely difficult to cultivate, and even among the ancient clans, very few have succeeded..."

"This kid must be a cultivator from an ancient kingdom. It's impossible that the secret technique I created was smuggled into Martial Emperor City!" With that, the first ancient emperor stopped a young man who had just entered the city on a white horse.

"Old man, what are you doing?"

Gao Sheng frowned and looked at the disheveled old man who had stopped him.

This person was none other than Gao Sheng, who was sent to the Heavenly Sword Sect by the Sword Immortal Lingyue with the Heaven-Splitting Sword, and then dragged to the capital by the sect leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Of course, because Lin Jing suddenly took control of the immortal sword, Gao Sheng and the sect leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect didn't even have time to see the ancient prince before Gao Sheng was dragged back to the Heavenly Sword Sect by the sect leader.

At the Heavenly Sword Sect, Gao Sheng lived in constant fear, dreading being purged by the second-generation ancient emperor. After all, he bore a great responsibility for all this turmoil.

Fortunately, the Ancestor of the Sky-Splitting Sword remembered that Gao Sheng had entrusted such important information to the Heavenly Sword Sect instead of the Ancient Clan, thus pointing Gao Sheng in the right direction.

"Go and find my disciple again."

"She remained in the Western Desert."

"Your luck is extraordinary. Staying by her side won't do her any harm. I'll give you a life-saving sword aura to ensure your safety on this journey."

So Gao Sheng once again fled from the ancient kingdom to find the Sword Immortal Lingyue, intending to form a demon-slaying team with her to eliminate demons.

So, they came to Wudi City to look for Feng Ning, but before they found her, they encountered an old beggar.

"Young man, I see you have extraordinary bones and amazing luck. Tell me, are you from an ancient country in the East?" the first ancient emperor asked with a smile.

“You old man, you have a good eye,” Gao Sheng said. “How did you know I came from an ancient country?”

"Speak quickly, I'm in a hurry."

The first ancient emperor chuckled and said, "The acquired spiritual energy body, this foundation-building secret technique, I remember, only exists in ancient kingdoms. Even ordinary cultivators in ancient kingdoms cannot come into contact with this foundation-building technique; only some high-ranking officials and nobles..."

"Holy crap!" Gao Sheng exclaimed in surprise. A Spiritual Body—this physique wasn't as easily discernible as a Fire Spiritual Body or a Water Spiritual Body; it was extremely hidden. This old man had actually recognized him as a Spiritual Body at a glance…

"Senior has excellent eyesight. May I ask your name?" Gao Sheng instantly became respectful, realizing that the old man in front of him was no ordinary person.

His cultivation level... he must have at least reached the Nascent Soul stage, right?
"You can just call me Master Roshi..." The first ancient emperor stroked his beard, although the tortoise didn't want to stay with him and had gone to explore the Martial Emperor City on its own...

"I wonder what brings you here, senior?" Gao Sheng asked.

The first ancient emperor said, "It's nothing. Actually, I am also a citizen of the ancient kingdom, but I haven't been back for a long time and I miss life there very much."

"I'm just curious about how much the ancient kingdom has changed during this time. I can tell you must come from a prominent family there. Would you be willing to come with me for a walk and have a chat?"

"Of course." Gao Sheng wasn't in a hurry and said, "My treat, senior. Let's go to the best restaurant in Martial Emperor City for a meal first!"

"Young brother, you are very generous. However, I am also very curious. You are only at the Golden Core stage, yet you have traveled thousands of miles to Martial Emperor City. What brings you here?"

"Hey, this isn't a time of great upheaval, with demons and monsters appearing in the West. I've come here specifically to exorcise them. Although this isn't an ancient kingdom, there are still many ordinary people who need protection. The Buddhist sect only has so few people; how can we possibly provide enough? Although I don't have much power, I can still do my part." Gao Sheng said righteously, glancing sideways at his Demon Exorcism Commander badge as he spoke.

"Hmm? So you're a cultivator from the Demon Extermination Division! The cultivation world needs good people like you. Actually, I have a few friends who are officials in the ancient kingdom. I'll have them promote you!"

"An official position?" Gao Sheng chuckled and said, "I have no interest in that."

The first ancient emperor narrowed his eyes, sensing a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice.

“Indeed, a talent like you, young brother, should stay away from this filthy cesspool. Under the leadership of the second ancient emperor, the ancient kingdom is declining day by day!” said the first ancient emperor.

“Yes…” Gao Sheng blurted out subconsciously, then suddenly covered his mouth and said angrily, “What are you saying, old man? Under the leadership of the second-generation ancient emperor, the people of the ancient kingdom are happy!”
