Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 435 Immortal Ox
"Damn, what happened?"

Outside, Fang Wuming, who was cultivating not far from Lin Jing, was also surprised.

Seeing the "zombie birds" and "zombie rats" emerging from the ground, he wasn't afraid, since those zombies had very low cultivation levels. However, these things shouldn't exist in Yinsi Mountain, and he just felt something was amiss.

Besides, the fruit on the nearby tree suddenly grinned and laughed at him, which wasn't a pleasant experience either.

boom!
Just as Fang Wuming realized that the commotion might be caused by Lin Jing again, a loud "boom" resounded, and a giant figure rose from the earth. It looked at Lin Jing's secluded cultivation place and was about to tell Lin Jing to leave its territory... The next moment, a leaf rat, stepping on leaves, tore through space and arrived outside the heavy array, looking at the incarnation of the mountain god.

"squeak!"

The leaf rat crossed its arms over its chest, scrutinizing the mountain god, indicating that its beast tamer should not be disturbed during his cultivation.

As it shook its paws, warning and driving away the mountain god, the leaf rat's originally emerald green and ethereal eyes emitted a chaotic green, very, very green, and it couldn't help but drool.

Because this mountain god seems to have lived for tens of thousands of years, and who knows how much toll he has collected, the leaf rat can't imagine how rich and powerful he is.

"Where did this scoundrel come from?" the mountain god cursed.

"I'm being generous, I don't want your stuff anymore, now get out of here."

"I'm giving you one minute to get out of my territory."

The mountain god roared, and Fang Wuming, who was hiding in the shadows, was horrified. This mountain god... actually didn't want anything and took the initiative to drive this evil star away from the mountain??

Why can't he have such good fortune?

"Squeak!!!" The leaf rat certainly couldn't let the other party interfere with the forest at this time, so it took out the mechanical bamboo spear that had just been upgraded to the power of the Nascent Soul stage, carried it on its shoulder, and aimed it at the mountain god.

At the same time, he stuffed his demon core into the bamboo spear to serve as a cannonball.

When the leaf rat aimed at him like that, the mountain god, though he didn't know what it was holding, had a bad feeling about it, feeling that it was even more threatening than the quasi-immortal energy.

"Lord Mountain God..."

During the stalemate, Lin Jing's voice could be heard from within the secluded cave.

At this moment, the mountain god realized that Lin Jing had opened a loophole in the array, allowing his divine sense to enter it.

"Mountain God, I wish to cultivate here for a while longer. Once my cultivation is complete, I will depart and leave you with a generous gift. May I ask if you would allow us to stay a little longer?"

Lin Jing spoke, and the mountain god initially did not want to respond. However, as an extremely terrifying aura emanated from the cave, the mountain god was immediately alarmed.

It subconsciously probed with its divine sense and suddenly discovered that in the place where Lin Jing was sitting and cultivating, there was also the corpse of a celestial beast that had been dead for who knows how many years.

The corpse of a celestial beast would naturally not frighten the mountain god. However, at this moment, one of Lin Jing's eyes was emitting white smoke, and the other was emitting black smoke. The two layers of smoke connected with the celestial bull's pupils. This corpse bull actually stood up strangely, stomped its feet, and exuded an extremely incomprehensible aura.

It gives the mountain god the feeling that this ox could overturn its true form with a single hoofbeat!
"What a joke! He has just broken through to the Nascent Soul stage and hasn't even fully stabilized his realm yet. How could he possibly control the corpse of a celestial beast and allow it to gain some of its former power?!" The mountain god was shocked and couldn't understand it.

"Fellow Daoist Mountain God?"

However, upon hearing Lin Jing's call again, the Mountain God regained his composure and, after a moment of contemplation, finally said, "Fellow Daoist, please do as you please."

Having said that, it abandoned its plan to send Lin Jing away from the mountain, not wanting to clash with this guy. It considered itself unlucky to have a monster close to the Four Heavenly Kings enter its territory!

The next moment, as the mountain god departed, Lin Jing also ceased his corpse-driving technique and then spat out a mouthful of blood.

"good."

"Using the power of life and death to activate the secret technique of corpse driving, it is indeed possible to control this immortal ox corpse."

"However, my cultivation level is still too low. Even if I burn my lifespan and use the Divine Control Technique to raise my Control Dao attainment to the Void Profound level, controlling this immortal ox is still a bit of a struggle."

"Just now, it seems that I could only control it for less than ten seconds. Fortunately, I successfully scared away the mountain god."

"But that's enough. With this trump card, even if I can only activate it for a moment, it will give me the ability to protect myself in this Origin Realm. At least I won't be bullied by those immortal geniuses or Nascent Soul monsters who have lived for tens of thousands of years."

Lin Jing wiped away the blood, grinned, and realized that whether he could live a good life in this Origin Realm depended on this ox.

The most urgent task now is to increase the duration of control over the Celestial Ox, ideally to more than five minutes, so that more things can be done.

The mountain god no longer interfered with the cultivation, and Lin Jing continued to stabilize his realm. At this point, only the Heavenly Demon Incarnation and the Ice Soul Gu's true form remained in the entire team without having condensed their primordial spirits.

…………

a few days later.

Outside the boundaries of Yinsi Mountain.

A very noble, princess-like female cultivator was fleeing in a sorry state through the mountains.

Behind her, a cultivator at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage was teasingly chasing after her.

"Fairy, hand over the dragon vein within you, and I will not do anything to you."

"Dream on!" Gu Youran spat, his face pale. He never expected to be so unlucky. First, he was teleported to a desolate wilderness and it took him more than a year to fly out. Then, the first person he encountered in the Origin Realm was a cultivator from the Heavenly Demon Sect!
【Take these top-grade dragon veins with you to cultivate in the Origin Realm. But remember, do not let the Heavenly Demon Sect cultivators discover them. The Heavenly Demon Scripture mainly relies on devouring dragon veins for cultivation. These top-grade dragon veins may be second only to Immortal Sources in value to them.】

Gu Youran remembered her father's instructions. She had indeed sealed the dragon vein tightly and hidden it deep inside, but she did not expect that it would still be discovered by the cultivators of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Having had the experience of sparring with Lin Jing, a successor of the Heavenly Demon Sect, Gu Youran thought that with her acquired immortal body, she wouldn't have to be afraid even if she encountered ordinary Heavenly Demon Sect cultivators.

However, she realized she had been too naive. She had indeed managed to neutralize the opponent's demonic techniques one by one, but Gu Youran hadn't expected that the opponent would also possess "immortal arts".

Immortal arts are spells that require immortal power to activate. In the Tianyuan Realm, it is impossible to learn them. However, the Origin Realm is different. The Immortal Origin can generate immortal energy, and with immortal energy, one can activate immortal arts. This Heavenly Demon Sect cultivator directly used immortal arts to severely injure her, catching her off guard.

"Then keep running, let's see where you can run to!" The Heavenly Demon Sect cultivator sneered, but the next moment, his expression suddenly changed as he realized that he was in the territory of the "Yinsi Mountain God".

"Stop right now!!!" he shouted suddenly, burning his magic power in pursuit, secretly cursing himself for not knowing the Heavenly Demon Crossing.

If this woman were to enter Yinsi Mountain and find the protection of the Yinsi Mountain God, even if she had the few wisps of immortal energy rewarded by His Highness the Holy Son and could activate immortal techniques a few times, she would still not be able to snatch these top-grade dragon veins under the protection of the mountain god, since the mountain god's strength is extremely terrifying.

"Damn it, I told you to stop. Do you think you can get away with this just because you've entered Yinsi Mountain? Don't push me. Even if I have to enter Yinsi Mountain, I'll still take you down. At worst, I'll just break through to the Void Realm and leave the Origin Realm. With these top-grade dragon veins, even if I strip you of your immortal body's essence, it won't be a loss!" The Heavenly Demon cultivator was furious when he saw Gu Youran still running away, and he roared inwardly.
