Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 480 The Demon Emperor Development Plan
"You mean, all the resources are gone, not a single thing is left?"

Yang Lin didn't listen to Lin Jing's nonsense. He just wanted to know if there were any resources left!
"That's all." Lin Jing said with a smile.

"Alright, alright." Yang Lin said "alright" several times, then his face darkened and he said, "Fine, I can let you off the hook for misusing the Immortal Treasury's resources."

"However, you must make amends for your mistakes."

Yang Lin did the math himself. In three years, if Lin Jing embezzled some money and then distributed some to those monsters, the money would have been gone long ago!

Even if he wanted to salvage the situation, it's probably unlikely.

A true man can bend and stretch. Since the resources in the Immortal Treasury cannot be recovered, and it is impossible to directly break ties with the spirits of the Forest Realm and the Underworld Goddess, then he must find a way to recover the losses in other ways. Only in this way can he avoid being killed by his master.

"What fault have I committed?"

"Fine, you failed, but you've actually done something good." Yang Lin gritted his teeth and said, "I've long heard of City Lord Lin's strength. I'm sure that a few years from now, when the top-grade immortal source is born, Junior Brother Lin will have a great chance of obtaining it!"

"Lord Lin, do you have any interest in top-grade immortal resources?"

Lin Jing did not deny it: "I do have an idea, and I am planning to take it."

“That’s right,” Yang Lin said. “I hope that after City Lord Lin obtains the top-grade immortal source, he can hand it over to me! To be precise, I want him to hand it over to the Alliance!”

"Of course, it's not free."

"The Alliance will bestow upon Lord Lin equivalent resources, including elixirs, magical artifacts, magical techniques, and even fairy companions."

"The supreme immortal energy nurtured by this supreme immortal source is difficult for ordinary cultivators to utilize. Only when it is placed in the hands of my master, Zhou Banxian, can it be used to its fullest potential to fight against the powerful figures of the Heavenly Demon Sect!"

"In the past, the top-grade and rare immortal sources that the geniuses of the Immortal Cultivation Alliance seized from the Origin Realm would basically be handed over to the Alliance in exchange for equivalent resources. City Lord Lin has only recently joined the Alliance and may not be familiar with this rule. I wonder what City Lord Lin's thoughts are?"

It seems the Immortal Treasury resources are gone for good. Yang Lin's only need now is to use Lin Jing's combat power to seize this top-grade Immortal Source. Only in this way can he give an explanation.

And if Lin Jing dares to refuse... it can also help him attract his master's anger.

"Sure," Lin Jing replied with a smile.

"Sure?" Yang Lin was taken aback; so quick to agree.

“Yes,” Lin Jing said. “Since it’s an equal exchange, I won’t lose out, and it will also help the alliance fight the Heavenly Demon Sect better. Why not do it?”

Yang Lin's eyes suddenly sharpened, suspecting that Lin Jing was playing some trick. After all, these words didn't sound like something a beast like Lin Jing, who had embezzled from the Immortal Treasury, would say.

"Don't worry." Lin Jing smiled slightly, walked past Yang Lin, and said, "Neither I nor the Tianyuan Realm have any intention of being enemies with the Immortal Cultivation Alliance, so naturally we won't do anything that would be like losing the big picture for a small gain."

"We will act in accordance with the rules."

Of course, this is on the premise that Lin Jing can seize it.

…………

Lin Jing did not give the other party a perfunctory answer; the current situation was different from the earlier one.

Initially, Lin Jing coveted the millennium-grade top-tier immortal source because it had a high probability of helping the Pine Leaf Rat and its companions become immortal beasts. However, after obtaining a considerable amount of ordinary immortal sources from the Underworld Goddess and the Immortal City's treasury, Lin Jing discovered that even without this top-tier immortal source, they weren't far from becoming immortal beasts.

Since that's the case, he doesn't necessarily have to use this top-grade immortal source himself.

If Lin Jing could exchange it for other more useful items from the Immortal Cultivation Alliance, he wouldn't mind.

However, instead of handing it over to the Immortal Cultivation Alliance, Lin Jing had other ideas if he could obtain this top-grade immortal source.

"The Immortal Cultivation Alliance does not have the coordinates of the Tianyuan Realm. Even if we ignore the Immortal Cultivation Alliance, the Tianyuan Realm will not be affected."

"However, the Heavenly Demon Sect does indeed possess the coordinates of the Heavenly Origin Realm, as they have already dispatched cultivators in advance."

"Now that I've caused such a commotion in the Origin Realm, it might draw the attention of the Heavenly Demon Sect to the Tianyuan Continent ahead of time."

"Although there are many Dao-seeking experts on the Tianyuan Continent today, if the Heavenly Demon Sect sends Dao-seeking experts with demon bloodlines, I'm afraid there will be very few people in the Tianyuan Realm who can withstand it."

"The most important purpose of the powerful figures from Tianyuan Continent sending us from the Origin Realm is actually to quickly contact the Immortal Cultivation Alliance and obtain their assistance..."

"But what if it could give Tianyuan Continent the ability to fight against the Heavenly Demon Sect on its own? Would the Immortal Cultivation Alliance then become dispensable?"

Lin Jing walked in the void. As far as he knew, the main reason why the Immortal Cultivation Alliance was able to fight against the Heavenly Demon Sect was that it had eleven particularly powerful cultivators, who were also the alliance's leader and deputy leader.

There are definitely no cultivators of this level in the Tianyuan Continent.

The first ancient emperor was no good.

Even the Demon Emperor wouldn't do.

However, if a cultivator comparable to the Alliance Leader could emerge in the Tianyuan Continent, then there would be no need to worry about the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Besides, it would be more meaningful for Tianyuan Realm to join the Immortal Cultivation Alliance at this time. If they join now, they won't have a decent strong person. Tianyuan Realm will only be considered a middle-level member of the alliance and will be used as cannon fodder. But if they have an alliance leader-level strong person, then joining will make them a high-level decision-maker and give them some real power in the alliance.

Therefore, Lin Jing now feels that neither using this top-grade immortal source for himself nor exchanging it for resources with the alliance is the best option.

"Demon Emperor".

"The Demon Emperor is a rare beast with combat-type rare beast supernatural powers and amazing strength. However, her bloodline is restricted by the rules of the lower realm, and she has been unable to break through to the immortal level and become an immortal beast for a long time."

"Using immortal energy to activate the divine power of rare beasts has the ability to enhance bloodlines. If this top-grade immortal source were given to the Demon Emperor, she would definitely become a celestial beast and reach a higher level of strength."

"It's hard to say whether the Demon Emperor, after becoming a celestial beast, will be able to rival the strength of several vice leaders of the Immortal Cultivation Alliance."

"However, what is certain is that they are all powerful beings who have survived the Ascension Tribulation. At least in terms of realm, they are all at the same level. If they can become immortal beasts, even if the Demon Emperor is not far behind these old guys, he won't be too far behind. Perhaps he will only lack a few handy immortal artifacts?"

Lin Jing's mind began to wander. He felt that the best course of action was to concentrate resources on cultivating a powerful figure within the Tianyuan Realm capable of leading the charge. Having such a powerful backer would make it easier for him to dominate the Origin Realm for tens of thousands of years…

"How exactly can we ensure that the Demon Emperor becomes a powerhouse at the level of one of the eight vice-leaders of the alliance..."

He was finally convinced that he was indeed born to be a beast tamer. It wasn't enough to just train his own pets; now he also had to figure out how to train a demon emperor-level demon court lord...
