Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 557: The Birth of a Child and the Receive of Immortality

"What did you just say?"

Lin Lan wondered if she had misheard.

Lin Jing is saying that he sent people to destroy the sect that used Gu poison?

What a joke.

The hermit of Mount Lu was also stunned.

Was the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect destroyed by Lin Lan's cousin?
This sect has been a malignant tumor in the martial arts world since ancient times. In ancient times, they used poison to influence the court, plunder for money and kill people. In modern times, they started pharmaceutical companies, poisoned and sold medicines, and made a fortune from the national crisis.

Although it was ultimately resisted by a coalition of many cultivation forces, it was never destroyed because of its unfathomable strength. It simply fled to the border and changed its business market from the domestic region to Southeast Asia.

It is said that within the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, there is a Foundation Establishment Ancestor domestically, and two more Foundation Establishment Ancestors abroad.

Besides the Foundation Establishment Ancestor, there are many more disciples in the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect who are proficient in poison arts. When facing something like "poison," even cultivators whose cultivation level is several minor realms higher than the disciples of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect must be careful, since this thing is a weapon that can kill people of a higher level, and not every cultivator is proficient in the method of detoxification.

In short, this is an extremely troublesome force that has caused the Dao Alliance a great deal of headache and is impossible to eradicate.

It turns out there was a fake alchemy master!

"You heard me right." Lin Jing looked at Lin Lan and said, "After reading your message, I went to take revenge, but I didn't expect that my subordinates were incompetent and missed one."

"I wonder... what characteristics this fake Core Ancestor of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect has."

"Which city was the most recent one?"

"What became of those he sought revenge against?"

"This whole thing started because of me. I'll find this guy as soon as possible and take care of him too."

Lin Jing actually had a lot of faith in the Ice Soul Gu's abilities, and he didn't think that it had missed a mere Pseudo-Core cultivator because of carelessness. Most likely, just as the Ice Soul Gu had guessed, the other party had some kind of treasure to conceal the traces, which was why the Ice Soul Gu hadn't discovered it.

This Earth is full of treasures. Even a Dao Alliance leader who is only a Pseudo-Core cultivator can possess a mid-grade immortal artifact. So it's not surprising that other Foundation Establishment cultivators also accidentally obtained an immortal artifact.

"What are you talking about... Wait, weren't you just resurrected not long ago? At most, how long can you cultivate?"

Lin Lan was completely baffled.

"Are these things directly related to cultivation level?" Lin Jing asked with a smile, then turned to the scholar of Mount Lu and asked, "Could you tell me, Hermit of Mount Lu?"

"I don't know either... No one has seen that fake Core cultivator, but I heard that the last place he appeared was in Spring City. His targets of revenge have all entered a vegetative state, and their fate is unknown."

"Is that so... Thank you." Lin Jing took out a storage bag and gave it to the Hermit of Mount Lu, saying, "By the way, this is the gift I said I would give to you before. Please accept it."

"I observe that you cultivate a water-attribute technique. This storage bag contains an entire deep-sea spirit stone vein, a complete set of water-based techniques and supernatural powers that can lead to ascension, and an illusion of a ten-thousand-year-old whale demon who is proficient in the Yin-Yang Dao, which you can study. With these, it will not be a problem for you to cultivate to the 'Nascent Soul stage' within a hundred years."

"Pills and magic treasures are all inside, all of the water element. Layman, may I extend my hand?" Upon receiving the floating storage bag, the Hermit of Mount Lu was stunned for a moment, then his heart trembled, for it actually contained all the things Lin Jing had described.

That waterway, with its concentrated spiritual energy, is a hundred times more abundant than that of Mount Lu.

The lifelike Yin-Yang Whale Emperor statue, containing a phantom soul created by the magical elemental mushroom, exuded an astonishing Daoist aura, making it impossible for the Hermit of Mount Lu to guess just how high the whale's cultivation level could be.

Looking at the neatly arranged pills and magical treasures, the Hermit of Mount Lu was stunned. She couldn't understand how Lin Jing could have so many treasures. Before, she, like Lin Lan, had doubts about what Lin Jing said about the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect being destroyed by him. But now, she had no doubts at all.

If Lin Jing were to take out even a tenth of the contents of this storage bag, it would be enough to offer a bounty to the entire cultivation world of Earth, leaving the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect with nowhere to hide on Earth.

After all, the Foundation Establishment Pill, the most valuable elixir on Earth, doesn't even seem to deserve to exist in this storage bag...

Who exactly is this cousin of her disciple? She suddenly looked at Lin Jing.

A corpse cultivator resurrected by a wizard?

Was that wizard an ancient ancestral wizard?
In a daze, the Hermit of Mount Lu subconsciously reached out her hand. She was nearly a hundred years old and was able to cultivate to the Foundation Establishment stage after the spiritual energy revival, thanks to this Heavenly Spirit Body. However, without the baptism of traversing the barrier of the Immortal Realm, the Hermit of Mount Lu, as a person of the ancient Immortal Realm, had not had her longevity bloodline activated. Although she had now reached the Foundation Establishment stage, her lifespan was probably less than two hundred years.

Lin Jing placed his hand on the other's hand, activated the Longevity Divine Power, and the appearance of the Hermit of Mount Lu immediately underwent an astonishing change.

She seemed to be reliving her youth; her silver hair quickly turned back to black...

A moment later, the Hermit of Lushan, dressed in a pure white Taoist robe, appeared like a fairy descending to earth. His skin was as smooth as jade, and his radiant face was so delicate it seemed as if it could be broken with a touch. His robe fluttered in the wind, exuding a refined fragrance. He hardly looked like an old man. In terms of youth and vitality, he was even more vibrant than Lin Lan, the Hermit of Watermelon, whose mouth was agape like a watermelon.

Immortals caress my head, knotting my hair and receiving immortality.

Using the power of the Immortal Body of Longevity, Lin Jing helped the other party activate part of his longevity potential, greatly increasing the lifespan of the Hermit of Mount Lu. His body naturally returned to its youthful state. In Lin Jing's eyes, the Hermit of Mount Lu, who was less than a hundred years old, was still like a child, just beginning his cultivation journey.

"Master, Master?!?" Lin Lan screamed like a pig being slaughtered, as if a miracle had just occurred before her eyes. She never imagined that her grandmother-like master was even more...

"Thank you, senior." The Hermit of Mount Lu was also shocked. At this moment, she understood that the reason she couldn't discern Lin Jing's cultivation level was not because he was special, nor because he had used any method to conceal it…

The other party may not have concealed their cultivation level from the beginning; it's simply because their cultivation level was too high, making it impossible for Foundation Establishment cultivators like them to see through it.

Core Formation? Nascent Soul?
The Hermit of Mount Lu had no idea, but this immortal-like method made her realize that her disciple's cousin was extremely terrifying and extraordinary.

Although she may be older, she respectfully addressed Lin Jing as "senior" to express her gratitude, as Lin Jing had given her a second life.

"Layman, you are too kind. Your kindness to my family far exceeds this."

Lin Jing suddenly felt a pair of eyes staring at him expectantly; it was Lin Lan.

"What, what's going on?!" Lin Lan pinched herself, feeling like she wasn't fully awake yet.
