Chapter 294: Relocating the Sect

By the time Lin Jing’s name spread throughout the world, a group had already arrived in Qingzhou from the Ancient Kingdom.

These were the Cultivators of the Beast Taming Sect who had remained in the Ancient Kingdom.

After becoming the Demon Court Holy Son, Lin Jing knew that it would be difficult to return to the Ancient Kingdom.

As long as he and Xu Qingyao had not left the Beast Taming Sect, while holding the dual identities of Demon Court Holy Son and the direct Disciple of the Demon Emperor, the Beast Taming Sect was destined to never be accepted by the Ancient Kingdom.

Since that was the case, they had no choice but to send people to bring the Beast Taming Sect Cultivators from the Ancient Kingdom to Qingzhou.

Those willing to come to Qingzhou would head to Qingzhou.

Those unwilling to leave their homeland would remain in the Ancient Kingdom.

As the daughter of the Sect Master, Senior Sister granted the Beast Taming Sect Cultivators who stayed in the Ancient Kingdom the right to establish a branch sect.

They could still learn and inherit the Spells of the Beast Taming Sect, and they could establish a Beast Taming Sect under a different name to take root in the Ancient Kingdom, but they would be completely severed from the original Beast Taming Sect.

As for whether the Ancient Kingdom would accept such a second-generation Beast Taming Sect separated from the original, that was no longer a problem for Xu Qingyao to consider.

“Direct Disciple of the Demon Emperor”

“Demon Court Holy Son—”

“What is all this nonsense?”

“Did this old bear hear correctly?”

After Elder Mo, the Black Bear Spirit, and the others arrived in Qingzhou, they heard many rumors about Lin Jing and Xu Qingyao and became completely numb.

Several great Yao Race Old Ancestors were also trembling constantly.

We told you to come to Qingzhou to make a living, not to become the heirs of the Demon Court!

They could no longer distinguish whether Lin Jing and Xu Qingyao were the Saint and the Sect Master’s daughter of the Beast Taming Sect, or the Holy Son and direct Disciple of the Demon Emperor of the Demon Court.

Which identity took precedence?

So, in the current situation, had the Beast Taming Sect taken over the Demon Court, or had the Beast Taming Sect been absorbed by the Demon Court?

The main force of the Beast Taming Sect from the Ancient Kingdom was about to arrive, and Lin Jing and Xu Qingyao, who had returned to the Demon Court, began to plan for the future.

“When we left Tongtian City, you seemed to have said something to the Sword Ancestor and that Void Profound from the academy.”

“Yes.”

“Since the Beast Taming Sect’s separation from the Ancient Kingdom is inevitable, I told those two that I want to use a great Divine Ability to move the original mountain gate address of the Beast Taming Sect to Qingzhou—after all, that mountain range is the true Foundation of the Beast Taming Sect, the home of many of the Beast Taming Sect Disciples’ Pet Beasts.”

“A good idea, but the Ancient Kingdom will likely not agree, not to mention that an Immortal demon is suppressed there,” Xu Qingyao said.

Lin Jing chuckled and said, “They will agree. Now that the strength of the Demon Emperor and the prestige of the Yao Race have spread throughout the continent, the Ancient Kingdom is currently at war with the four Totem Demon Emperors of the Snow Plains.”

“The Snow Plains side is retreating steadily. If I were the Snow Plains Demon Emperor, I would definitely choose to board the chariot of the Yao Race’s resurgence at this time to reverse the situation.”

“And from the perspective of the Ancient Kingdom, although the Ancient Kingdom Cultivators prioritize the Ancient Kingdom above all else and the Human Race above all else, as long as the high-level officials of the Ancient Kingdom are rational, they will surely understand that the trend of the Yao Race’s resurgence is unstoppable. Making enemies with the Demon Court at this stage is definitely an unwise choice.”

“And since we were previously Cultivators of the Ancient Kingdom, although we cannot return now due to the constraints of the Ancient Kingdom’s national destiny, we can still serve as a link for peace between the Ancient Kingdom and the Demon Court, giving the Ancient Kingdom sufficient time to annex the Snow Plains. In this situation, it is not excessive for us to make such a small request.”

“In all likelihood, not only will the Ancient Kingdom gift us the mountain gate of the Beast Taming Sect, but they will also send over some other resources.”

“For example?” Xu Qingyao asked.

“For example, that Immortal demon you mentioned, the one that is suppressed,” he said, looking at Xu Qingyao.

“Why do you want that thing? Do you want to form a Contract with it? Although it is also a Rare Beast, but—” Senior Sister raised an eyebrow.

Lin Jing said, “The Demon Emperor successfully destroyed the Yin Corpse Sect and brought back that Immortal Beast corpse.”

“According to the Demon Emperor’s deduction, to refine this Immortal Beast corpse and turn it into a corpse puppet, three special conditions must be met.”

“One is the Yin Corpse Sect’s secret corpse-controlling technique, and the other two are related to the power of the corpse controller.”

“The corpse controller needs to possess both extreme Life Qi and Death Qi simultaneously to complete the refinement of the Immortal Beast corpse puppet.”

“Your Majesty said that the Demon Court has little use for this corpse, so she bestowed it upon me—”

“After all, as a Longevity Physique, I inherently possess the source of extreme Life Qi, giving me the unique conditions to refine the Immortal Beast corpse puppet.”

“This is also the reason why the Yin Corpse Sect wanted to capture me and perform Possession.”

“The Yin Corpse Sect Cultivators Cultivate the Dao of Death, so Corpse Cultivators like the Nine Infant Demon Lord, with the help of the Corpse Emperor’s power, barely possess the condition of extreme Death Qi. The coexistence of extreme Life and Death power will allow one to control the Immortal Beast corpse puppet.”

“You mean…” Xu Qingyao realized.

“Yes, that Immortal demon suppressed beneath the Great Wilderness’s earth veins—its Origin of Rare Beast Divine Power is the power of extreme death, originating from an Immortal’s death Divine Ability.”

“Back then, when it was only at the Peak of Nascent Soul, it relied on this death Rare Beast Divine Power, and even Soul Transformation and Void Profound experts could not completely kill it.”

“So if I can strip away its power, perhaps I can simultaneously possess the ‘extreme power of life’ and the ‘extreme power of death’ to gain the ability to control the Immortal Beast corpse puppet.”

“I see.” Xu Qingyao nodded. “But would the Ancient Kingdom be willing to give it up?”

Lin Jing said, “I heard from a descendant of a demon-exterminating family that this Immortal demon is quite special. Its power is concentrated Death Qi, which is difficult for ordinary people to control. Keeping it nearby only affects one’s Lifespan. Coupled with the fact that there are no strong experts in the Ancient Kingdom suitable for cultivating the power of death, it only has one use left.”

“This Immortal demon slaughtered many living beings and devoured many Cultivators in the Great Wilderness back then. Rather than subduing it, suppressing and sealing it beneath the Great Wilderness is actually more conducive to improving the Luck of the Great Wilderness, which is more in line with the Ancient Kingdom’s path of development.”

“Now, thousands of years later, its Luck has likely been squeezed dry by the Ancient Kingdom, and its use is almost non-existent.”

“Then it might really work.” Senior Sister said with a look of envy, “An Immortal Beast corpse—if you succeed in refining it, wouldn’t you…”

Lin Jing smiled bitterly and said, “It’s not that easy. To refine an Immortal Beast corpse, one needs at least the Perfection of the Longevity Physique to count as extreme Life Qi. Besides that, how to strip away the Immortal demon’s Divine Ability power and make it my own is also not something I can do.”

“The Demon Emperor said the Immortal corpse can be given to me, but she is not responsible for helping me refine it. She doesn’t have the time; I have to find a way myself.”

“Unless.”

“Unless what?”

“Unless I use my last wish, she can help me think of a way.”

“But I won’t use it. How could I waste the last opportunity to have the Demon Emperor take action on such a trivial matter? I’d better find a way myself.” Lin Jing’s gaze sharpened. Now, he was famous throughout the world, and his Potential Dragon Luck—it should be enough for him to use until he died, becoming a permanent passive effect. He would definitely be able to find a way.

Before that, his priority was to help the Ice Soul Gu devour the Lightning Gu—to attempt to break through to Core Formation. Lin Jing was very curious about what the poison pellet Divine Ability born from the Fusion of the two Strange Gu powers would be.
