Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 532 The demons dance wildly
Two months later.

The much-anticipated Beast Taming Competition has finally begun.

The area above Beast Taming Mountain was bustling with activity.

All the cultivators were waiting for a figure—Lin Jing, who had left behind countless legends on the Tianyuan Continent a hundred years ago.

Although a century has passed, Lin Jing is still at the Nascent Soul stage, but none of the visitors dare to underestimate him.

There are forty-one participants in this Beast Taming Competition.

A pretty good number.

After all, the minimum requirement for participation is Nascent Soul cultivation; only those who reach Nascent Soul cultivation can enter the Origin Realm.

Of these 41 people, 24 came from the Beast Taming Sect, while the remaining 17 came from other forces.

Among them were those from academies, sword sects, and Buddhist sects. In any case, regardless of their school of thought, each sect had its own Beast Tamer.

As for the Beast Taming Technique, it wasn't a strictly secretive cultivation method. After all, it was originally just the core cultivation method of a third-rate sect with only a Nascent Soul cultivator in charge, and it had long been leaked to an unknown extent.

It is worth mentioning that among these forty-one people, a full sixteen are cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage, which is quite terrifying.

"The way of beast taming is also getting better." When Lin Jing arrived, both Sect Master Xu Xiaoyao, who had the cultivation level of Kongxuan, and Xu Qingyao, who also had the cultivation level of Kongxuan, gave him a lot of face and stayed by his side, taking him as their master.

"Greetings, Supreme Elder!" At this moment, the way the elders and disciples of the Beast Taming Sect addressed Lin Jing completely changed. With Lin Jing's current cultivation and strength, he dared to accept the title of Holy Son, but even the Sect Master did not dare to call him that.

Outsiders may not know, but as Xu Qingyao's adoptive father, Xu Xiaoyao understands that Lin Jing now has the strength to kill Dao Wen.

With such strength, even though Lin Jing is not of high seniority, within the Beast Taming Sect, only the position of Supreme Elder, which has never been held before, is suitable for Lin Jing.

"Elder Lin, all the participants have arrived," Sect Master Xu informed him. Lin Jing nodded, then noticed an unexpected figure among the participants.

He saw Yu Xun'er and fell into deep thought. Why did she come here without consulting him?

Lin Jing sensed that the Beast Taming Sect was still being watched by many powerful figures who had attained the Dao. The Demon Emperor, the Tower Master of Tongtian, the Water Moon Island Master, and even the distant Second Generation Ancient Emperor were all watching the spectacle. He shook his head. Wasn't Yu Xun'er afraid of being exposed?

There must be a way to cover it up.

do not care.

"This Beast Taming Competition will select eight people to enter the Origin Realm with me."

"To save time, I think we should decide the winners through a tournament."

"I will select eight cultivators that I think are relatively strong, based on my personal opinion."

"These eight people will each step onto one of the eight arenas. The remaining thirty-three people may challenge them. The winners will stay, the losers will leave, and the remaining eight will accompany me to the Origin Realm."

After Lin Jing finished speaking, the Beast Taming Sect's demon emperor elder with earth attribute immediately erected eight arenas on the eight mountain peaks and chuckled as he looked at Lin Jing.

"you you you……"

Meanwhile, under Lin Jing's selection, the eight chosen individuals flew to different mountain peaks.

These eight people are Gu Qianqiu (Eternal Body), Wang Che (Heaven and Earth Immortal Body), Yu Xun'er (Eternal Body), Qin Lei (Thunder and Fire Divine Body), Fang Baihua (Four Seasons Divine Body), the Jiang siblings (Twin Bodies), and Zhang Mingren (Acquired Demon God Body). Lin Jing was also helpless. After all this time, only Wang Che was an outsider. To be precise, he wasn't really an outsider, since they were classmates and he had been informed beforehand.

There were sixteen Nascent Soul cultivators present, and there were also some cultivators whose personal beasts were Nascent Soul cultivators.

After Lin Jing selected the eight he considered the strongest, the other Nascent Soul cultivators, though their expressions remained unchanged, were clearly somewhat unconvinced.

Of course, they were only dissatisfied with some of the selected people; they were still very wary of geniuses like "Qiankun Immortal Body Wang Che".

I don't understand why this immortal being would want to join in the fun.

This is absolutely not something you should challenge.

It is said that this guy has even defeated someone at the early stage of the Void Profound Realm.

"Let's begin." As Lin Jing spoke, a Nascent Soul prodigy immediately appeared. He was dressed in Buddhist robes and looked at Yu Xun'er, whom he had never heard of before, and said, "This benefactor... may I offer you my guidance?"

Secretly, the Buddha, the scene, and other high-ranking members of the Buddhist sect, including Dao Hui and Buddhist disciple, were all paying attention to this monk. This monk was a prodigy of the Buddhist sect who had switched to the path of beast taming midway through his life. He had contracted with several sacred beasts of the Buddhist sect, and his strength was definitely not bad. Lin Jing, however, did not think highly of him.

"The money wasn't enough," Buddha sighed.

The fact that four demon kings at the Nascent Soul stage—a divine lion, a white elephant, a peacock, and a sacred boar—are all under the command of this beast-taming monk demonstrates the profound foundation of this beast-taming cultivator trained by Buddhism.

however.

This unknown Yu Xun'er stunned everyone with a single move. She summoned an avatar that looked exactly like herself, and this avatar casually slapped four sacred beasts and the beast-taming monk down the mountain, turning them into mincemeat.

"A contracted avatar as a pet beast shouldn't violate the rules, right?" she said softly, shocking the onlookers. Even the geniuses and elders of the Beast Taming Sect looked at her in astonishment.

"Who is this woman!" The second-generation ancient emperor, who was secretly observing, sensed a familiar fluctuation from Yu Xun'er, but found that he could not perceive it further.

"A contracted avatar? The Beast Taming Technique can do something like this?" The Buddhist expert who accompanied the Beast Taming monk couldn't understand. Could the Beast Taming Technique really do this? And even if it could, how could this avatar be so powerful?

Beside him, Immortal King Che was also wide-eyed with astonishment. The Beast Taming Technique could be used like this? He had thought that after the second-generation ancient emperor helped to improve it, being able to contract a True Dragon of Destiny was already heaven-defying enough... Contracting an avatar, how on earth did he manage to do that?

Everyone looked at Lin Jing.

“It doesn’t violate the rules; it is indeed the Beast Taming Technique.” Lin Jing said casually, “Let the competition continue.”

Yu Xun'er's side was too strange, so the person behind her, who came from the Witch God Sect of the Cloud Sea Mountains, dared not challenge her. Originally, he wanted to challenge Gu Qianqiu, who also did not belong to the Beast Taming Sect, to give the Beast Taming Sect some face, but having learned from the Beast Taming Monk's experience, he gave up challenging this guy of unknown origin.

Let's choose the safest option.

In order to participate in this Beast Taming Competition, he did his homework thoroughly and conducted a rigorous investigation of the Beast Taming Sect's prodigies. Qin Lei with the Thunderfire Divine Body and Fang Baihua with the Four Seasons Divine Body were both powerful and not to be trifled with. Their pet beasts were also the same kind of beasts from the Forest Realm, namely the Dragon Carp and the Pine Leaf Rat. They must have been greatly cultivated by the Beast Taming Sect.

The twins Jiang Lin and Jiang Qi, although their combat power has greatly decreased after the twins separated, they inherited Lin Jing's Ice Soul Gu. It's best not to provoke them. I heard that they... followed Lin Jing for a period of time during the ancient kingdom period, and have a powerful background.

After considering all the options, Zhang Mingren, with his acquired demon god body, had the most pathetic background.

"Fight!" He charged toward Zhang Mingren.

"Actually, it doesn't matter who you choose." Lin Jing fell into deep thought upon seeing this. The beast-taming cultivators of the Witch God Sect all contracted with the Ten Fiends of the Cloud Sea, which was not bad. However, the eight he chose were indeed a chaotic mess. The one who seemed the most harmless had an acquired physique, but in fact, he was cultivated by the Demon Emperor of the Outer Realm... It would be impossible for a Demon Emperor who could survive a failed attempt to sneak into the Immortal Realm without some unique abilities.
