Chapter 290: The Demon Court Holy Son

Netherworld Ghost Fire.

Although this fire is a top-tier Exotic Fire, its uniqueness lies in its growth potential.

Its quality can only be significantly improved by burning Souls.

The wisp of Netherworld Ghost Fire held by the Dragon Carp was actually far from top-tier quality. However, now that His Majesty the Demon Emperor had promised to end the lives of all powerful enemies, Lin Jing could take this opportunity to Cultivate a few more Spells.

The Great Demonic Divine Sense Technique was one… and this Netherworld Ghost Fire technique that burned Souls was naturally another.

For reading novels, the best choice is super powerful.

Right now, inside this Tongtian City and upon this scroll, since there were so many powerful enemies, Lin Jing felt there was a high probability he could elevate the Netherworld Ghost Fire to its limit.

“Lord of the Demon Court, this is Tongtian City, the territory of the Tongtian Pagoda! During the Pill Assembly, you dare to strike at us? Do you not hold the Tongtian Pagoda in your eyes?!”

“My disciple is a participant in this Pill Assembly—!” Heavenly Fire Old Ancestor was suppressed by the Emperor’s Might and knelt on the ground, bleeding from his seven facial orifices. He knew he was no match for the Demon Emperor, so he intended to use the prestige of the Tongtian Pagoda to intimidate him.

When he had first entered the city, he had been warned by the Tongtian Pagoda that no trouble was permitted in this city during the Pill Assembly.

All grievances were to be resolved after the Pill Assembly ended.

Then this Demon Emperor must also follow the rules!

However, facing the threat of Heavenly Fire Old Ancestor, the Demon Emperor didn’t care at all. With just his pressure, he made Heavenly Fire Old Ancestor unable to move or circulate any power, pinned to the ground like a withered old man, looking incredibly miserable.

“Lord of the Demon Court, you…”

At this time, the three Pill Sects of the Tongtian Pagoda were also at a loss. According to their duties, they should have maintained the order of the Pill Assembly. After all, those currently under the Demon Emperor’s might also included alchemists participating in the Pill Assembly!

They were pinned to the ground by the pressure, looking miserable and completely unable to continue refining pills. This behavior of disrupting the Pill Assembly should be seen as a provocation to the Tongtian Pagoda. However, the one provoking the Tongtian Pagoda was someone the Three Great Pill Sects were truly powerless against.

“Tower Master, Tower Master…” They could only anxiously call for the Tower Master who was in seclusion.

However, how could the Tongtian Tower Master not have sensed such a commotion? At this moment, within a Different Space, he stood with the Immortal Pill Spirit facing the Demon Emperor, his heart filled with immense shock.

“What, do you wish to stop me?”

The Demon Emperor, in his Yao Race form, looked at the Tongtian Tower Master and the Immortal Pill Spirit. He held a Tiger Seal that radiated a terrifying aura, making the Tongtian Tower Master extremely wary. This was a supreme treasure of the Ancient Divine Tiger Yao Race, which only those with Yao Race Bloodline could activate.

The Lord of the Demon Court’s strength was already terrifyingly high due to his Rare Beast Bloodline. Now that he had successfully transformed and received the Legacy of the ancient Yao Race, his strength was likely even more unimaginable.

“Don’t argue, don’t fight,” the Immortal Pill Spirit nervously transmitted its voice to the Tongtian Tower Master, saying, “Old man, I just sensed the aura of a ‘Dan Tribulation.’ Doesn’t a Dan Tribulation only appear in the Lower Realm when an intelligent Immortal Pill is born? How can someone else trigger a Dan Tribulation?”

“If this Dan Tribulation affects me, I won’t be able to take it. I’m scared—”

Facing the Immortal Pill Spirit’s retreat, the Tongtian Tower Master let out a heavy breath and said, “Congratulations, Fellow Daoist, on successfully finding the path of transformation. It is only natural for you to stand up for the Demon Court Holy Son. However, I ask that you do not harm the alchemists of my Tongtian Pagoda.”

“Naturally. Your Tongtian Pagoda’s core alchemists are very sensible and did not appear on that Heavenly Demon Scroll. However, do not blame this Emperor for cleaning up your Tongtian Pagoda’s peripheral forces.” As the Demon Emperor finished speaking, the Tongtian Tower Master gave his tacit consent.

He did not want to exchange blows with this Yao Race Lord of unknown strength.

Seeing that the Tongtian Tower Master did not want to fight, the Demon Emperor also showed an expression of boredom.

“Forget it. Later, I’ll go to the Yin Corpse Sect headquarters, drag the Hu Emperor out, and give him a beating. I must let Qingzhou know of this Emperor’s strength after transformation.”

This guy… Cold sweat dripped down the Tongtian Tower Master’s face. Just how much had the Lord of the Demon Court’s strength increased after his transformation?

Outside.

Whether it was the Nine Infant Demon Lord or the Elder of the Gu God Sect, all were suppressed, losing any semblance of Void Profound masters.

Similarly, not wanting to die, they also began to threaten the Demon Emperor.

“Lord of the Demon Court, my Yin Corpse Sect has no grievances with your Demon Court. Do you intend to start a war with my sect?”

“Even if you slay me here, His Majesty the Corpse Emperor can resurrect me. When that time comes, the Yin Corpse Sect and the Demon Court will be locked in a fight to the death!!”

This threatening voice, like that of the Heavenly Fire Old Ancestor, spread throughout Tongtian City.

However, whether it was the Demon Emperor or Lin Jing, at this point, they were naturally not moved by threats.

“I am—a participant in the Pill Assembly—”

The red-haired woman who was previously near Lin Jing, even though she was in the middle of the grand Pill Assembly, was still burned to a crisp by a handful of ghost fire from Lin Jing.

Not just her, anyone on the field whose name appeared on the Heavenly Demon Scroll, regardless of their status, was targeted by the flames released from Lin Jing’s body.

They were like ghost dragons lunging toward them to swallow them whole.

Facing Lin Jing’s actions of slaughtering Pill Assembly participants and geniuses of the Alchemic Dao, the Three Great Pill Sects were breaking out in cold sweat, standing high in the sky not daring to speak or stop him.

The Tongtian Tower Master had already sent a voice transmission to the twelve Pill Sects to let the Demon Court Holy Son do as he pleased.

This made the Three Great Pill Sects feel very uneasy.

“Netherworld Ghost Fire—the Demon Emperor is actually helping him improve his Spells.” The Three Great Pill Sects hadn’t expected that Dragon Carp to actually master the ghost fire technique of the Netherworld Hall.

At this moment, Lin Jing was like a ghost god walking out of Hell, causing even those one or two Realms higher than him to feel their hearts waver,

and fear took root in their Souls.

He walked past Kikyō Dan Shi, who looked on with a face full of terror. However, for those like her who were not on the Heavenly Demon Scroll, Lin Jing did not kill indiscriminately just to Cultivate his ghost fire technique.

“Lin Jing, you—”

Sword Ancestor looked at Lin Jing, whose body was fully dragonized as he slowly rose into the air, her face full of shock. Right now, it seemed there was no room left for her to act!

“Lin Jing!”

The Vice President of the Academy looked at Lin Jing, and looking into Lin Jing’s eyes, he seemed to understand everything. This Longevity Physique would henceforth be completely severed from the Ancient Kingdom. From this day forward, he would no longer be an Ancient Kingdom Cultivator, no longer a student of the Academy, and no longer a Demon Subduing Guard of the Demon Subduing Division. He had completely become the Demon Court Holy Son, the hope for the Yao Race’s revival.

A generation’s Longevity Physique was about to embark on a Path of the Ghost God that no Longevity Physique had ever walked before—becoming the hope of the Yao Race.

“Is this… what the Zong Guan Mansion meant when they said the Yao Fortune is greater than the Human Fortune—” The Vice President of the Academy had never thought the Zong Guan Mansion’s judgment would be so accurate.

At this time, Lin Jing did not say much. He simply gave a slight cupped-fist salute toward the Sword Ancestor and the Vice President of the Academy before flying away from the Alchemy grounds, no longer caring about the subsequent results of the Pill Assembly.

His primary target was the Gu God Sect Elder who was suppressed by the Demon Emperor at the edge of the barrier, not yet killed, and who had the Thunder Tribulation Gu parasitic within his body!!!

“As expected, Gu God Sect Cultivators have arrived—”

“But is there only one? A pity—”

“Thunder Tribulation Gu—I didn’t expect the day would actually come for the Ice Soul Gu to devour one of the Ten Unique Gu.”

Among the Strange Gu, the poison of the Thunder Tribulation Gu was the most unique. It could make the poisoned person’s physical body and Yin Soul almost entirely devoid of lightning resistance, making them easily targeted by heaven and earth Lightning Tribulations, leaving them no peace as the power of heavenly thunder shook and controlled their mind! Meanwhile, the host of the Thunder Tribulation Gu could obtain overbearing and matchless lightning power while also possessing extremely high lightning resistance, as if they had consumed a Thunder Avoidance Pill. However, compared to normal Cultivators, they were more prone to encountering Lightning Tribulations.
