Immortal through Beast Taming

Chapter 691 52: Invincible Immortal King

Immortal Realm, Invincible Sect.

After Lin Jing and Wu Lingxi returned, Wu Lingxi, having been gifted a Calming Heart Nourishing Immortal Pill by Lin Jing, went into seclusion to recuperate.

Lin Jing, however, took out the six Dao fruits gifted by the Glazed Immortal King, along with the secondhand Creation Dao fruit extracted from his third body, and looked at the few pet beasts that were not yet Immortal Kings.

Pine Leaf Mouse, Dragon Carp, Ice Soul Gu, Immortal Crane, Heavenly Emperor Frog, Holy Egg.

"One for each of us, it fits perfectly." Lin Jing distributed the fruits: "The secondhand Creation Dao fruit will go to the Pine Leaf Mouse."

"..." The Pine Leaf Mouse felt helpless, why was its fruit the only secondhand one.

"The Demon Pill King among the Nine Celestial Demons, an unparalleled alchemist of the demon tribe, has successively possessed several races specializing in fire control, and even an alien spirit monster of Immortal King level. His Dao fruit will be excellent nourishment for you."

"..." The Dragon Carp's vision went dark, ah, Alchemy Dao again?

Having managed to reach the Immortal Realm, it thought it could reign supreme.

But the other Dao fruits Lin Jing mentioned were indeed not more suitable for it to devour.

"The Ice Demon King among the Nine Celestial Demons, has only possessed one body, but that body belongs to the now-extinct Ice Demon Clan with Immortal Emperor potential, possessing ultimate freezing power. Though you already have many strengths, the Ice Soul Gu is still your core, so devouring this Dao fruit should be the most compatible, with little risk of failure."

"Alas." Ice Soul Gu also felt regret, it had actually wanted the Dao fruit of the female sword-wielding demon king, but unfortunately, she escaped from the Glazed Immortal King.

However, this choice is barely acceptable.

"The Yama King, who excels in the Dao of Death. To achieve ultimate life, one must comprehend ultimate death. Immortal Crane, it's yours."

"Alright." The Immortal Crane bowed its head, feeling Lin Jing was forcing a fit, as matching these Dao fruits to suitable beasts wasn't easy.

The Heavenly Emperor Frog looked at Lin Jing with great expectation.

"The Horn King among the Nine Celestial Demons, reared by the Demon Lord with a Five-color Immortal Stone; you're familiar with it, right?"

The second body was hatched from the Five-color Immortal Stone, awakening a power of Immortal Emperor level.

The Horn King was hatched in the form of a humanoid beast tribe, possessing ultimate strength and an unparalleled physique.

"Combine with your constitution, invincible."

"Ribbit?" The Heavenly Emperor Frog was bewildered, no?

It sounded formidable, but it was just a frog; though its skin was thicker due to the Heavenly Emperor bloodline, is ultimate defense talent paired with devouring this strength Dao fruit appropriate?

The Heavenly Emperor Frog felt it ought to change its name to Bullfrog in the future.

"The Soul King among the Nine Celestial Demons enslaves all races with the soul. Thought of letting the incarnation absorb, but considering, holy power not only suppresses demons but was initially mana for enslaving all races, this is for you." Lin Jing looked at the Holy Egg.

He himself decided to devour the Time King's Dao fruit from the Nine Celestial Demons. The Time King specializes in time arts with formidable strength; the Glazed Immortal King prioritized dealing with him out of fear he would flee, but expended too much effort on him, leading to two others escaping, and more losses.

This Dao fruit suits the Immortal Crane, but to better enable the avatar to wield the Dao Bell, it's decided the Immortal Crane will devour the Dao fruit of death, while he devours the Time Dao fruit.

The Nine Celestial Demons are extraordinary individuals, their Dao fruits are virtually top-tier in the Immortal Realm. If not for the Glazed Immortal King's celestial destiny, the king's past strength could at most combat one of them at a time.

Choosing to devour their Dao fruits, Lin Jing considered a rather decent option.

After all, devouring their Dao fruits doesn't provoke the demon tribe, whereas seeking more suitable Dao fruits to devour necessitates considering the backing of these Immortal Kings; whether there are Immortal Emperors behind them, if they are disciples or descendants of any Immortal Emperor—too cumbersome.

......

Subsequently, the Immortal Realm fell into momentary silence.

The celestial destiny struggle temporarily halted due to demon tribe interference.

The Glazed Immortal King disappeared, major forces uncertain about the current holder of celestial destiny, yet the forces struck the demon tribe with unprecedented intensity.

Yet whenever this arises, the demon tribe hides within the Demon Lord's space, shielded by the Celestial Dao Treasure, in seclusion and not emerging; major forces lacked effective methods, thus Immortal Emperors from all clans rotated attacks on demon tribe strongholds to increase the Celestial Dao Treasure's consumption.

Sixty years later.

Through a celestial Dao treasure remnant, Lin Jing, having cultivated for innumerable sixty years, emerged from seclusion, feeling satisfied with his current strength; aside from cultivation, he also researched methods to enter the Exotic Battlefield.

Sixty years had passed without news of the Glazed Immortal King; Lin Jing was unaware of her current circumstances, a fortunate scenario might have her still at large, fleeing within the Exotic Battlefield, while a less fortunate scenario might mean she was devoured by the desolate spirits, or that the demon tribe's additional schemes had stripped her celestial destiny, leaving her dead and her dao dissipated.

The Exotic Battlefield token was single-use; Lin Jing had used both, thus naturally unable to re-enter the Exotic Battlefield. To enter, it would require personal power to open a passage like the exotic tribe's Immortal Emperor, but despite an entry experience and a partial celestial Dao treasure capable of controlling time-space, after countless years, he still hadn't figured out how to enter the Exotic Battlefield; others of Immortal Emperor orthodoxy were likewise.

"What a pity."

"How then to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm next?"

Lin Jing's emergence this time was due to reaching a bottleneck at the apex of the Immortal King's nine-layer heavens; leveraging Dao fruits, he smoothly broke into the Immortal King Realm, and due to continual breakthrough feedbacks from several pet beasts, alongside millennia of diligent cultivation, his incarnation reached the pinnacle of the Immortal King Realm.

Nonetheless, most of this time, Lin Jing was contemplating how to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm without relying on celestial destiny power.

It's widely known that obtaining celestial destiny nearly guarantees achieving Immortal Emperor status through perfecting celestial destiny power, as the contemporary Immortal Emperors are virtually celestial destiny carriers from various eras.

Lin Jing also possesses celestial destiny, but it resides with his main body.

Regarding his incarnation, Lin Jing considered some contracting with local Dao fragments, but in this complete Immortal Realm, he dared not rashly attempt, not like Earth; the rules' power immense, even Immortal Emperors dare not take lightly—easy missteps hence, he continually searches for a more secure method.

"Is Zhi Qianrou here?!"

Suddenly, after countless years of serenity beyond Invincible Sect, a terrifying Immortal King's might descended!

Within Invincible Sect, Zhi Celestial Crane controlled by Lin Jing with the Feather Crown, performing intelligence tasks by his side, heard the voice and hurriedly went to investigate, then saw the family's Immortal King ancestor emerge.

"Ancestor?!"

"Wonderful." Seeing Zhi Celestial Crane's state, this Immortal King Realm Zhi Celestial Crane furiously laughed: "Surely under mind control, no wonder not returned to the tribe for so long. Who did it, come forth, daring to control the celestial pride of my Zhi Celestial Crane tribe!"

"Control? No, I haven't!" Zhi Qianrou replied: "Ancestor, I choose to follow and aid the throne, he has the potential for celestial destiny!"

"Celestial destiny my foot!" Zhi Celestial Crane ancestor grew angrier, celestial destiny individuals have been missing for so many years, and here you are aiding? Still claiming not brainwashed.
