Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 566 Heavenly Emperor and Frog
"Rationally speaking, this frog is indeed extraordinary."

Although it was just an ordinary frog, Lin Jing could indeed see intelligence in its eyes.

This is very unusual.

It would be understandable if it were a highly intelligent animal, but it is quite rare for a species like a frog with such low intelligence.

Lin Jing observed for a moment and found that the other party had not accidentally ingested any spiritual herbs, so what the remnant soul said might not be false.

However, Lin Jing wanted to continue to investigate the other party's level of intelligence to see exactly what it had reached.

"Come."

Lin Jing spoke, and his magical power condensed into a whirlwind, blowing the Heavenly Emperor Frog, who was suppressing the Mosquito Clan, to his feet.

The demonic wind swept in, startling the Heavenly Emperor and Queen Frog, who suspected it was the work of the mosquito clan's vengeful spirits.

However, when it saw that the one who attacked it was the human race it had been protecting, it couldn't help but feel puzzled.

"Croak! (Who are you?)"

"Caw! (Why are you interfering with my suppression of the mosquito horde?)"

Ouch.

Lin Jing was greatly surprised after discerning the meaning of the two "quacks" by sensing the fluctuations in the other party's soul.

This frog doesn't seem like a lowly animal at all; on the contrary, it's like a magical beast that has become a spirit. Except for not being able to speak human language, its thoughts and expressions are very complete, just like those of an ordinary person.

"Right, right?" The remnant soul boasted, his perception was absolutely correct. This frog, just like him, definitely had a trace of the Heavenly Emperor's bloodline.

"But this frog doesn't talk like a normal person."

Lin Jing stared intently at the frog, using his divine soul to transmit his thoughts so that the frog could understand his meaning.

"Aren't you afraid of me?"

"Quack! (Why are you afraid?)"

"(When the human race was humiliated and tormented by the mosquito race, I stepped in to help them suppress the Blood Demon Beast. In ancient times, this would have been an immense act of merit, deserving of incense offerings and the title of a deity.)"

"Quack. (I didn't do anything bad.)"

A frog with an upright body has nothing to fear from a crooked shadow.

"........."

Lin Jing felt extremely strange. Even though it had developed intelligence relatively early, this frog spoke in a very coherent way, making Lin Jing feel that it was definitely not a lone frog, and that there must be a master guiding it behind the scenes.

"Who told you all this?"

"Croak! (Wong Tai Sin.)"

"And who is Huang Daxian?" Lin Jing crossed his arms, and as soon as he spoke of Cao Cao, Cao Cao appeared.

In the distance, a gust of demonic wind swept in, and a weasel that had become a spirit and was at the Qi Refining stage shouted from afar:
"Let it go!!!"

The weasel landed near Lin Jing and the Heavenly Emperor Frog, and was about to ask Lin Jing to release the Heavenly Emperor Frog when Lin Jing released a trace of pressure. The weasel immediately broke out in a sweat the size of soybeans.

"Croak!" The Heavenly Emperor Frog exclaimed in delight upon seeing that Huang Daxian had come to rescue it.

However, what shocked the Heavenly Emperor Frog next was that Huang Daxian, who was all-powerful in its eyes and told it many things, actually lay down and begged for mercy from the humans who had captured it.

"This little demon is blind and does not recognize Mount Tai. I do not know what I can do to serve the immortals."

"Croak?" The not-so-bright Heavenly Emperor Frog shook its head.

"What's going on between you and this frog?" Lin Jing asked. "Reporting to the immortal, that day I wanted to change things up. I didn't want to eat rats anymore. I wanted to eat some snakes, fish, frogs, or something. When I encountered this frog, I tried to use illusion magic to make it jump into my mouth. But to my surprise, the illusion magic didn't work on it."

"How could my illusion magic be ineffective against an ordinary frog? I tried it on other frogs and found that it was effective against them all. So I guessed that it might have extraordinary talent and potential. In this case, it must be a good seedling for cultivating immortality, so I didn't eat it."

"I taught it a lot of things and found that it was very smart and learned quickly. Even though it hadn't started cultivating, its intelligence was already no less than mine."

"I have high hopes for it and take good care of it, hoping that one day, when it becomes a great demon queen, it can help me in return."

"As a mid-stage Qi Refining Weasel Spirit, you do have good judgment," Lin Jing praised the weasel spirit, saying, "Your judgment is correct; it does indeed have extraordinary bloodline."

Huang Daxian's eyes lit up. Having received Lin Jing's approval, he couldn't help but stand up proudly, ramrod straight.

"As expected of me," Huang Daxian thought to himself. Seeing that Lin Jing seemed to have no ill intentions, he couldn't help but ask, "Immortal, you found it because you want to...?"

"Naturally, it's because I saw its extraordinary bloodline and wanted to take it with me to cultivate."

"What a stroke of luck!" Huang Daxian patted his leg, looked at the Heavenly Emperor Frog, and said, "This deity wants to take you to cultivate. Why don't you quickly thank the deity? If you stay here, it will take you a long time to become a demon. If you go with Grandpa Deity, it won't be long before you become a demon."

"Croak!" The Heavenly Emperor Frog shuddered and looked at Lin Jing. So Lin Jing was such a big shot.

Even the most powerful Weasel spirit within a hundred miles held him in such awe.

"That's right, what kind of skill is it to stay here and bully some wild mosquitoes?"

"Are you interested in following me in cultivation to suppress an even more terrifying mosquito clan?" Lin Jing asked.

The frog took a deep breath; it was indeed tired of this place.

The mosquitoes here are no match for them.

Even without it, its people would certainly be able to suppress it and prevent the mosquito clan from coming out of the mountains and wreaking havoc on the human world.

"Croak! (Senior!)" The Heavenly Emperor Frog jumped directly to Lin Jing's feet, indicating its willingness to follow.

"You'd better think it over. I'm going to take you to a place of cultivation. Every mosquito in that tribe is bigger than you and extremely ferocious."

Lin Jing's words did not frighten the frog; instead, they fueled its fighting spirit.

"Croak! (I am the Frog Emperor, destined to suppress all mosquitoes in the world.)"

Lin Jing: ?
Lin Jing turned to look at Huang Daxian again and said, "What have you been teaching it? This kid's getting a little cocky."

Could it be that Wong Tai Sin's eyesight is so extraordinary that he can tell that this frog is a descendant of the Heavenly Emperor?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.

Even he couldn't tell.

Wong Tai Sin wiped his sweat and said, "No, it's nothing. It was just that it was a little timid at first. To build its confidence, I told it some things I had heard from humans, embellished them, and made it understand its own extraordinary nature."

"You're quite a talent."

Lin Jing thought for a moment and said, "I'll give you six months. If you can establish your foundation, I'll give you another great opportunity."

"Foundation Establishment? Immortal, you must be joking..."

"Eh?"

Huang Daxian's eyes lit up as he took the storage bag containing a pile of spirit stones and a Foundation Establishment Pill that Lin Jing threw to him. He exclaimed, "Don't worry, Immortal! It's just Foundation Establishment! It's just Foundation Establishment! No problem!"

"Just wait and see."

"Croak!" It spoke a few words to the Heavenly Emperor Frog in frog language, telling it to follow Lin Jing and cultivate well, and to be obedient. Then, it crawled down and respectfully saw Lin Jing and the others off.
