Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 389 Failure
The power of this celestial palace teleportation artifact lies in its ability to teleport through unpredictable space, which even Kong Xuan finds difficult to stop, and the user himself struggles to control its effects.

This is a feature of the magical artifact; therefore, even the artifact spirit cannot control the teleportation in a specific direction, and can only perform random teleportation.

However, being the final artifact spirit created by the Celestial Palace, it possesses its own unique insights into controlling magical treasures compared to human cultivators.

Although the final destination of the compass teleportation cannot be determined, the mechanical turtle can carry multiple people with it and ensure that they all land at the same location...

"not good!"

Upon seeing the strange tortoise, the Grand Elder of the Witch God Temple immediately used his spatial magic to try and take the Divine Child away, pushing his power to its limit!

He was anxious and desperate to block the spatial teleportation, but the power of the Immortal Palace's treasure was too exaggerated, leaving a Grand Cultivator in the Void Profound stage completely helpless. He could only watch with bloodshot eyes as his divine son was abducted by a tortoise.

"Lord Witch God, something terrible has happened!"

"His Highness the Divine Child has been captured by a demonic turtle."

Left with no other choice, the Grand Elder of the Witch God Temple decided to use the Witch God's emergency communication artifact. At the same time, the Witch God, who was strengthening the boundary wall, stopped working.

"What's the panic? He has my life-saving witch spirit on him, so his life is not in danger for the time being. Let me see what's going on."

The location of the Witch God's divine consciousness was fortunately due to the presence of his life-saving witch soul on the Divine Son's body. Otherwise, finding someone in the entire cultivation world, even in the Dao realm, would be like searching for a needle in a haystack.

After a long time, the God of Witchcraft discovered a Nascent Soul mechanical tortoise in the Qingzhou region. It was shaking a quasi-immortal artifact that sealed a supreme treasure, constantly adding various poisoned magical artifacts into it, thus consuming the power of the divine child...

"This turtle..."

"This magical artifact..."

The Witch God's face darkened as he looked at the Demon Court Lord, who was earnestly and diligently maintaining the boundary wall, and said, "What does your Holy Son mean by this?"

"what?"

The Lord of the Demon Court, unaware of the situation, looked at the God of Witchcraft and asked, "What's wrong? I didn't know. Is he in danger?"

The Demon Court Lord quickly located Lin Jing's true form using the "Imperial Weapon" and "Tiger Fang," both of which bore her mark.

"Isn't he cultivating diligently and conscientiously?" Sensing that Lin Jing was in the Immortal Prison Mountain of Qingzhou, the Demon Emperor asked in confusion.

"Pretend, still pretending!!! It was his pet tortoise that ran straight to the Cloud Sea Mountains and kidnapped the son of the Witch God Temple with a quasi-immortal artifact!" the Witch God roared.

If he could, the Witch God would really not want to confront the Demon Emperor if his own divine son was killed by a single pet beast of the Demon Court's Holy Son.

However, the Witch God was unaware of Lin Jing's thoughts. Due to concerns for the safety of the Divine Child, he had to first inform the Demon Emperor.

After all, it wouldn't be good for him, a powerful cultivator at the Dao Inquiry level, to intervene directly before the Divine Child was in mortal danger.

Ultimately, this is still a struggle between the younger generation.

Damn it! I thought that the Holy Son of the Demon Court, who had already reached sixth place, wouldn't have any designs on the Ninth-ranked Temple of the Witch God. Who knew that this bastard would actually try to make his pet beast the top ten by himself... The Witch God was furious.

"So that's how it is." The Demon Emperor's expression turned sorrowful. "He was captured by a pet beast all by himself... This..."

"Perhaps my Holy Son wants his pet beast to be on the list. Don't worry, he's sensible and would never put your Divine Son's life in danger..." "Sigh, don't concern yourself with the affairs of the younger generation. Hurry up and continue maintaining the boundary barrier. We're still a long way from upgrading its strength..."

The witch god's face remained dark.

The key issue now is no longer the life of the divine child.

Rather, he would lose face if the Golden List actually showed that the Divine Son of the Witch God Temple was defeated by the Holy Son of the Demon Court with just one pet beast.

"Relax, stop nitpicking. I even helped you deal with the Gu God Sect. Even if he is defeated and squeezed out of the top ten, he is still the totem saint of the Snow Plains. He just went from ninth to tenth, which doesn't have much of an impact." The Demon Emperor waved his hand.

The Witch God looked towards a certain place in the outer void, where four Snowfield Demon Emperors were also trying to maintain the boundary.

These four demon emperors were originally at odds with the ancient kingdom, and were in a state of hostility before the arrival of the Golden Age.

However, because Xueyuan ultimately chose to submit to the Demon Court and reached an "alliance agreement" with the Demon Court, paying a large amount of protection money to the Demon Court, the war between the ancient kingdom and Xueyuan came to an end.

Of course, the most crucial point is that the second-generation ancient emperor no longer has the mind to wage war against the snowfield.

Compared to the impact of the Golden Age and the unknown threat from the Heavenly Demon Realm, the expansion of the ancient kingdom is truly insignificant.

Temporarily setting aside grudges with the Snowfield and having the four demon emperors of the Snowfield join forces to strengthen the boundary wall is, in the view of the second-generation ancient emperor, more beneficial to the ancient kingdom. After all, if an external enemy successfully invades, the Tianyuan Ancient Kingdom will be the first to bear the brunt.

As for the cultivators and civilians who died because of the war he started, the second-generation ancient emperor believed that it was unavoidable. There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. For the prosperity of the ancient kingdom, sacrifices are necessary.

…………

Qingzhou.

Whether due to inertia or not, the mechanical turtle and the son of the Witch God Temple were randomly teleported to this place.

Upon discovering that it had been teleported to Qingzhou, the mechanical turtle immediately chose to torment the Witch God Temple's son inside the bottle while searching for Lin Jing's true form.

Soon after, the mechanical tortoise discovered that the son of the Witch God Temple had lost consciousness inside the bottle. It then released the son, poked him a few times, and, confirming that he had indeed been defeated, concentrated its magic power in its eyes and stared blankly at the golden list in the sky.

The Divine Child of the Temple of the Witch God remains in ninth place.

I defeated it, but I didn't make it onto the gold list...

Seeing this, the mechanical turtle cursed loudly at the Fortune List, remembering what Lin Jing had said.

[Since your current life essence is a mechanical beast, I wonder if you can make it onto the Golden List... According to the age of a spirit, you are already an old ghost, but according to the age of the mechanical materials, you are still an infant. However, as a mechanical creation, there is no so-called golden age for cultivation. I wonder how the Golden List will judge you.]

Now the mechanical turtle knows that the Fortune List never intended for "mechanical life" to be included on the list.

In a fit of anger, the mechanical tortoise put the son of the Witch God Temple back into the treasure bottle and headed straight for the direction of Immortal Prison Mountain...

Since I can't make it onto the list myself, I'll just capture the God Child of the Witch God Temple and have one of the Pine Leaf Rat, Dragon Carp, or Ice Soul Gu defeat him... That would be making the best use of him. I just don't know if these "seniors" can defeat this guy as easily as I can.
