Immortal through Beast Taming

Chapter 706 67: Senior Brother, Take Your Medicine

After feeling the backlash of the Heavenly Dao, Lin Jing remained expressionless.

The Heavenly Dao of Earth wanted to erase his existence traces from time, but unfortunately, with protection from the Time Dao Treasure and the Earth's incomplete rules, this backlash posed no significant threat to Lin Jing.

"Bind!"

When the power of the backlash acted upon him, Lin Jing activated the Dao Bell, forcibly suppressing this power of time, and then binding it with a contract.

However, after contracting the second piece of the Heavenly Dao fragment with the Dao Bell, Lin Jing attempted to combine the power of the time fragment with the Dao Bell, but things didn't go as smoothly as he imagined; just one piece of the time fragment was not enough to repair the Dao Bell.

On the contrary, the combination of the two forbidden powers drained Lin Jing's mana instantly, causing the time within him to rapidly collapse, losing tens of thousands of years of life in an instant.

"No, it won't work." Lin Jing's expression changed. Even though he forcibly kept the time fragment within him, it was like contracting a high-level fierce beast he couldn't control; currently, he simply couldn't harness it with his power.

If not for the external force of the Dao Bell to forcibly suppress it, his own power couldn't fully control this force. Forced manipulation would be like a backlash from a pet beast, affecting himself.

"Oh well, there's no need to be hasty. Being able to forcibly keep a piece of the time fragment is already a huge gain; I should first secretly break through to the Immortal Emperor realm and then harness the power of this time fragment."

Lin Jing sighed and chose to return to the Immortal Realm with four Immortal Emperor bones.

......

At this time, all the Immortal Emperors in the Immortal Realm had already learned of Lin Jing's reincarnation encounter with the Demon Lord's reincarnation. Lin Jing's true body had secretly transmitted intelligence to the Immortal Realm via Pangu continent.

"Lin Jing's request is that he can directly deal with the Demon Lord's reincarnate before him, but the method of extermination needs to be provided by us, because he is unable to guarantee that the current Demon Lord will not continue to reincarnate after being killed."

"Unless we can provide a Magical Treasure or Divine Technique that completely eradicates all traces of the Demon Lord, he is powerless."

The Immortal Emperors met, with the Glazed Immortal Emperor present, to discuss the matter of the lower realm Demon Lord.

"According to his description, this Demon Lord has indeed reincarnated many times. Given this, can the Demon Lord's reincarnated body be sealed? Isn't he skilled at controlling the Dao, even enslaving?" proposed the Lord of Sky Demon Mountain.

The Glazed Immortal Emperor rolled her eyes and said, "Leave aside the Demon Lord, even a random Immortal grasps a thousand soul division techniques and divine abilities to reincarnate countless soul fragments together. Who can guarantee that this reincarnated body is all of the Demon Lord? Moreover, the Demon Lord's reincarnation body is definitely related to the Celestial Dao Treasure; this reincarnated body seems weak, but if Lin Jing establishes contact with it rashly, who knows, it might give the Demon Lord an opportunity to backlash against him. Carrying the Celestial Dao Treasure, the Demon Lord intends to seize the lower realm Heavenly Dao's will; he even dares to envision subduing the Heavenly Dao's will, so are you sure Lin Jing won't be backlashed and possessed due to contractual relation?"

"Without Lin Jing, the lower realm is utterly doomed."

"Therefore, Lin Jing cannot establish a deep connection with the Demon Lord and the Celestial Dao Treasure. Only by destroying or sealing the Celestial Dao Treasure without establishing a link with it is the most stable method."

"First step, find the location of the Celestial Dao Treasure; second step, possess the method to destroy or seal the Celestial Dao Treasure."

What the Glazed Immortal Emperor said also aligned with Lin Jing's true body's requests. Lin Jing did not wish to bear risks, but he also did not possess a solution, thus, he pushed the responsibility to the Immortal Emperors, letting them seek strategies.

The Immortal Emperor meeting lasted briefly before concluding, as in a short time, the Immortal Emperors also didn't have means to balance the Celestial Dao Treasure; if they did, the Demon Lord wouldn't be so brazen in the Immortal Realm.

Therefore, the final discussion result was still to directly kill the Demon Lord's reincarnation body, attempting a trial.

Next, they would refine special treasures aimed at the Demon Lord, dispatching them to the lower realm for Lin Jing's use.

In this way, there is a possibility of success, and Lin Jing's true body wouldn't need to establish a connection with the Celestial Dao Treasure and suffer backlash.

As for whether it will be effective, testing is necessary to know.

"As expected, it's still this method." Lin Jing's avatar in the Immortal Realm understood the Immortal Emperors' decision, not feeling surprised.

Moreover, regardless of whether the extermination succeeds or not, Lin Jing anticipated it; his true body would definitely continue to be arranged by the Immortal Emperors for constant reincarnation to determine the Demon Lord's situation.

Perhaps, henceforth, his true life would transform from guarding the lower realm into a lifelong game of verifying "Is the Demon Lord dead?" "Where has the Demon Lord gone?" to determine the Demon Lord's state.

Lin Jing surely did not wish for it, but now he has no room for refusal, only able to cooperate with the Immortal Emperors.

But secretly, Lin Jing still adheres to his own thoughts; only by finding the Demon Lord's Celestial Dao Treasure can he truly be free of worry.

The Immortal Emperors may not have a method to search or restrict the Celestial Dao Treasure, but he does, and that is the Dao Bell; as long as he repairs the Dao Bell and sends the same Celestial Dao Treasure to his true body, then his true body can use the Dao Bell's Power of Deduction to locate the Demon Lord's treasure and suppress the Demon Lord's Celestial Dao Treasure.

However, Lin Jing himself possessing a damaged Celestial Dao Treasure is something he doesn't dare disclose to the other Immortal Emperors; once said, he worries he won't be able to keep this damaged Celestial Dao Treasure.

After all, having one Demon Lord already causes enough headaches; no Immortal Emperor wishes Lin Jing to become the second Demon Lord.

The Immortal Emperors now dare to let Lin Jing deal with the lower realm Demon Lord without concern for the Demon Lord's Celestial Dao Treasure falling into Lin Jing's hands because they don't envision a Seeking Dao Cultivator, like the Demon Lord, controlling the Celestial Dao Treasure; after all, without Immortal Emperor Cultivation, it's nearly impossible to wield the Celestial Dao Treasure.

But if Lin Jing exhibits the ability to control the Celestial Dao Treasure using the Heavenly Dao fragment, then Lin Jing will also become a thorn in their side.

The only one who knows Lin Jing's secret now is the Glazed Immortal Emperor who has established a contract with him.

He shares a life-and-death friendship with the Glazed Immortal Emperor; although it isn't an absolute guarantee, it's more reliable than other Immortal Emperors, even stronger than the Eastern Phoenix Immortal Emperor.

Moreover, Lin Jing really needs such an Immortal Emperor-level ally.

"You did bring back quite a few good things."

The Glazed Immortal Emperor looked at the bones Lin Jing had brought back and said, "I'll help you refine these into relics, but whether you can break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm depends entirely on your own fortune."

Lin Jing nodded slightly and said, "I entrust it to you."

Years passed in the Immortal Realm.

The lower realm's time multiplied by a hundred.

Without the reliance of Yu Ling Immortal Sect, Forget Sorrow Taoist had to find other methods, seeking doctors everywhere.

Relying solely on him, he truly may not achieve it.

Other Immortal Realm sects simply disdain such a sickly Immortal body.

Fortunately, to prevent Mo Wan from dying young, Lin Jing has always been helping him.

Unbeknownst to him, Mo Wan has already regarded his junior apprentice Lin Zhu as someone akin to a parent or mentor...

Until Lin Jing received the "Ten Thousand Year Killing Spike" sent down by the Immortal Realm and urged by the Immortal Emperors, arriving before Mo Wan.

Looking at his junior apprentice approaching him, Mo Wan asked the question he had always wondered.

"Junior apprentice, I don't know if it's just a misconception; I always felt you had slight hostility towards me, but sometimes I think I'm wrong because you've always been helping me. Yet today... this feeling is especially evident; is my illness worsening, causing hallucinations?"

"Senior apprentice, it's time to take your medicine."

"Junior apprentice, why does this pill... look so much like a nail?"
