Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 383 Rare Gu
If it were a normal beast tamer, upon encountering a rare beast, their first thought would indeed be to form a contract with it and make it an asset.

Even if the power of the Undying Serpent is too evil and brings many negative effects, most beast tamers will not give up easily and will try their best to overcome these obstacles.

But Lin Jing is different. He has come into contact with too many rare beasts, from the Lord of the Demon Court to the Dragon Carp. He has already demystified rare beasts. No matter how talented or potential the Undying Black Serpent is, it cannot attract Lin Jing at all. He has no intention of cultivating or contracting it.

They only want to extract all the current value from it, regardless of the consequences.

He directly used the Dao of Control to forcibly manipulate it to detach itself from its origin. In this process, the Undying Serpent's foundation was inevitably severely damaged. Unless a celestial object repaired it, it would be difficult for its cultivation level to advance further.

Lin Jing's actions were tantamount to abolishing its bloodline as a rare beast, and in a very cost-effective way, since the essence he extracted would also lose its growth potential.

but……

"As expected of a rare beast's bloodline origin, this intense death power is unprecedented." When Lin Jing extracted the other party's bloodline origin, he couldn't help but sigh. The death power contained in a mere Nascent Soul stage demon beast was more profound and pure than that of a Void Profound Ghost, and even more vigorous and concentrated than the Netherworld Ghost Fire cultivated to its extreme by the Dragon Carp.

Even when absorbing the negative power from the strange Gu, the Buddha-Demon Pearl could still maintain its balance. Even when the Ghost Bride was sealed, it remained unaffected. However, at this moment, only a portion of the Undying Xuan Snake's rare beast bloodline essence was sealed. The Buddha-Demon Pearl had completely transformed into a demon pearl, and its Buddhist nature could no longer suppress its demonic nature. This power of death directly transformed the Buddha-Demon Pearl into a Death God Pearl filled with the power of death.

"Seal!" Lin Jing shouted. Spiritual power within his body transformed into tree branches, tightly binding the Death God Pearl. If he hadn't used other methods to seal the Buddha-Demon Pearl, which was already a sealing spell, a second time, this power of his bloodline origin would have gone berserk, affecting his life force.

"However, is the bloodline origin so stubborn? It seems difficult to eradicate." After Lin Jing stripped away ninety percent of the Undying Serpent's bloodline origin, even with the divine control technique he performed by burning his lifespan based on the Nascent Soul realm, which was comparable to the Void Profound level, he could no longer control the Undying Serpent to strip away the bloodline origin. No matter how hard Lin Jing tried, this last core origin was not affected in the slightest.

"That's fine."

Lin Jing pulled out the drained Undying Serpent, which was on the verge of death. With a slap from Lin Jing, the Undying Serpent was completely "dead." However, with a sweep of his divine sense, Lin Jing could still sense that the Undying Serpent's essence could not be completely destroyed by him. Given time, it would be resurrected again.

Of course, in the past, it might have been able to revive in a short time, but now, with most of its bloodline essence extracted by Lin Jing, it's no different from being sealed away. It might take thousands of years to accumulate enough power to revive.

"Shenmu, seal it!"

Lin Jing took out several saplings, made a hand seal, and instantly countless divine trees wrapped around the entire Demon Suppression Tower. Regardless of how long it would take for the Undying Xuan Snake to revive again, Lin Jing directly sealed the entire Demon Suppression Tower, eliminating any possibility of it escaping.

Having accomplished all this, Lin looked inward. The Death God Pearl, entwined by the divine tree, was filled with an intense aura of death, while the surrounding area was filled with vibrant longevity blood. He possessed the ultimate power of life and death; all that remained was to master the Corpse-Driving Secret Technique of the Yin Corpse Sect before he could attempt to control the Immortal Ox's corpse.

"Compared to the immortal bloodline that can regenerate and never run out, the essence of the dead beast that has been extracted is not my own power after all. It cannot grow or regenerate. Next, I need to find a way to transform it into a power that can grow and regenerate, so that I can control the corpse of the immortal beast for a long time, instead of losing the means of control after only two or three times."

Lin Jing quickly came up with a solution.

"This source of death bloodline can be refined into an external avatar, an external avatar containing intense death power. In this way, it will have growth and regeneration capabilities. Although it will certainly not be as good as the Undying Xuan Serpent and cannot perfectly inherit its rare beast bloodline, it is equivalent to creating a 'low-end version of the Undying Rare Beast'." "Ice Soul Gu... Mechanical Turtle, in the team, these two are the only ones that are not rare beasts."

"This source of death is just what we need right now."

"I'll have the Ice Soul Gu refine an avatar using the bloodline essence of the Undying Black Serpent. Then, it can burrow into the corpse and cooperate with my corpse-driving technique." Lin Jing made his decision. Since the Ice Soul Gu was rather unlucky and failed to mutate due to its contract with him, he would artificially control it to obtain a portion of the rare beast's bloodline!
As for why I didn't choose the Weapon Ghost, it's simply because the Weapon Ghost is even more bizarre than the Gu Worm.

At least Gu worms, once they reach the Golden Core or Nascent Soul stages, possess "demon cores" and "navels," but the combination of the artifact spirit and the mechanical beast is merely at the Nascent Soul stage in terms of power. They lack even the Golden Core stage, let alone the Nascent Soul or its supernatural powers. One is a man-made artifact spirit, and the other a man-made mechanism; they are completely inanimate. Lin Jing currently doesn't know how to refine them into external avatars through Nascent Soul cultivation.

If he hadn't worked hard to improve the Beast Taming Technique, he wouldn't even have been able to form contracts with them.

"Go out."

After making his decision, Lin Jing walked out of the Demon Suppression Tower. His actions in the Demon Suppression Tower inevitably caused some commotion and attracted the attention of the Beast Taming Sect.

Currently, a number of Beast Taming Sect cultivators have gathered outside the Demon Suppression Tower to observe its condition.

Just as they were deciding whether to enter the Demon-Suppressing Tower to investigate, Lin Jing's figure appeared outside the tower accompanied by a burst of spiritual energy.

"Lin Jing?!"

"So that's why the Demon Suppression Tower suddenly started acting strangely. It was you." Senior Brother Ouyang was also among them, looking at Lin Jing with surprise and delight.

In addition, Elder Mo and the Black Bear Spirit, these old friends, have also reached the Nascent Soul stage.

As for the Demon King Elder and Sect Master Xu Xiaoyao, who were originally Nascent Soul cultivators, their current cultivation levels are also at the peak of Nascent Soul, and they are not far from reaching the Divine Transformation realm.

Although the Beast Taming Sect is not strong overall at present, it is developing rapidly under the protection of the Demon Court.

"It is I. Greetings to the Sect Master, all the Ancestors, and all the Elders." Lin Jing smiled slightly, and a group of Demon King Ancestors waved their hands repeatedly.

"No need to be so polite." A group of demon kings and patriarchs wiped their sweat. How could they dare to let Lin Jing pay his respects? This divine disciple of the Beast Taming Sect had even killed several Void Profound Demon Ancestors. They couldn't accept such a gift.

"Excuse me for disturbing you all. Besides checking on the situation of the Undying Demons, I have something important to discuss with the Sect Master since I returned this time." Lin Jing looked at Xu Xiaoyao.
