Immortal through Beast Taming-Chapter 569 - 24: A Bountiful Harvest

Boom.

After using the power of the Celestial Demon Finger to easily knock out the Ten Thousand Poison Sect Ancestor, a massive suction force emerged from within the space rift, forcefully teleporting the two of them to appear in front of Lin Jing.

Elder Xiao of the Xuantian Pavilion fell from the air, and Xiao Nian hurriedly caught him, while the Ten Thousand Poison Sect Ancestor heavily hit the ground.

"Come here." Lin Jing pulled the Ten Thousand Poison Sect Ancestor over, gripping his head and initiating the soul-searching technique, trying to see how the other party concealed himself.

A moment later.

Lin Jing let out a "hmm," discovering that it wasn’t due to any treasure, but rather a magic technique.

This magic technique had been obtained by the Ten Thousand Poison Sect Ancestor when he accidentally entered an ancient immortal’s abode in his early years and was called the "Ant Art" technique, with a very special effect.

When an enemy’s cultivation is higher than the cultivator, no matter whether it’s through deduction or divine sense, it’s very difficult to accurately locate a cultivator practicing the "Ant Art" technique.

This cultivator would become like an ant, without a sense of presence, and be ignored as an ant.

The greater the cultivation gap, the harder it is to locate.

"Who researched this?" Lin Jing couldn’t help but be speechless; he had thought it was some Immortal Artifact helping the Ten Thousand Poison Sect Ancestor cover his traces... but this "Ant Art" technique seemed quite extraordinary.

Even the Ice Soul Gu’s tracking and his own deductions couldn’t find traces of this Ten Thousand Poison Sect Ancestor. The creator of this technique must also be extraordinary, likely on the level of ancient immortals or higher.

If it wasn’t for himself locating the Ten Thousand Poison Sect Ancestor beside him as an "Elder of the Xuantian Pavilion" and sweeping over with his divine sense, he really might not have discovered him.

"Forget it, it’s a gain in any case."

"I wonder what the limit of this ’Ant Art’ technique is."

"While cultivating in the lower realms, can I shield myself from those powerful beings of the Immortal Realm who wish to deduce my situation?"

Lin Jing pondered, feeling this was important, especially since his mission was to annihilate the Celestial Demon in the lower realms, which was undoubtedly a big offense to the demon clan of the Immortal Realm. Lin Jing didn’t want to be constantly worried about being targeted by the powerful beings of the demon clan in the Immortal Realm when the time comes.

"Senior."

"Senior." Meanwhile, after confirming Elder Xiao’s well-being, Xiao Nian immediately came to thank Lin Jing.

Additionally, he respectfully held up a storage bag and said, "Thank you, Senior, for saving my life. Inside this storage bag are the ancient treasures we originally intended for you to examine. Now, the Xuantian Pavilion is willing to present them all to you as a token of gratitude for your assistance."

"No need." Lin Jing took the storage bag and looked at the Young Pavilion Master of the Xuantian Pavilion.

"This Ten Thousand Poison Sect Ancestor only did this out of desperation after I eradicated all associated forces of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, trying every possible way to seek revenge on me."

"This matter began because of me, so it should end because of me."

"Let’s continue with the previous agreement. In exchange for ancient treasures, trade for a spiritual beast. Next, you may choose a pet beast, and I will help cultivate it. You can choose any species, and I will guide it on the path of cultivation, awakening its intelligence and raising it to the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer."

"Let’s go." After taking the storage bag containing the "Ant Art" from the Ten Thousand Poison Sect Ancestor, Lin Jing used nether fire to burn away his body and soul.

"See the Senior off———"

Seeing Lin Jing return inside the house, the people of Xuantian Pavilion let out a sigh of relief, and Xiao Nian’s heart pounded wildly, realizing that this person... is terrifyingly powerful. Fortunately, they hadn’t offended him earlier.

"Alliance Leader Hu, who is this senior...?"

"Don’t ask." Hu Yousong glanced at him and said, "Meeting this senior is good fortune for the Xuantian Pavilion. Make sure not to upset him, or else the fate of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect might be what comes next for us."

"Yes, yes, yes." Xiao Nian nodded, naturally understanding these things.

Meanwhile.

Lin Jing weighed the storage bag given by Xuantian Pavilion, smiling slightly.

As expected, Xuantian Pavilion is indeed lavish.

Among the twenty ancient treasures, there are two with significant value.

One is a low-grade Immortal Artifact and the other a mid-grade Immortal Artifact.

The output rate is quite good.

The low-grade Immortal Artifact is quite damaged, and Lin Jing put it away to give the Dragon Carp a chance to practice repairing it later.

And the mid-grade Immortal Artifact required Lin Jing to carefully and patiently study it.

A shattered bronze mirror.

It had already lost any Immortal Power, retaining only a tiny amount of Spiritual Qi, significantly more damaged than a plaque, looking inferior to even a low-grade magical treasure. However, Lin Jing could tell it was made of extraordinary material.

After nourishing the Immortal Mirror with some Immortal Power, Lin Jing came to a conclusion, which was that the alchemy master Dragon Carp must continue to deeply transition into an artifact-refining master. Otherwise, these listless magical treasures could never be restored.

...

"Can you do it or not?"

On another side, Lin Jing himself, carrying the remnant soul of an Immortal, was continually searching for the descendants of the Heavenly Emperor.

"This doesn’t seem right."

The remnant soul muttered to itself, "The Heavenly Emperor had countless incarnations and left behind numerous descendants. Even in the End of Dharma Era, they couldn’t all have departed from Earth. There should be a large portion continuing to live and thrive here, so why can’t I sense them?"

"Is it possible that the bloodline has become too thin over time, making it impossible for me to have a bloodline resonance... Or perhaps it’s related to my current state. If I could restore myself a bit, maybe the probability of sensing would be greater..."

"Wait, hold on, don’t refine, don’t refine, I seem to have sensed something."

Seeing Lin Jing’s murderous look, this remnant soul hurriedly spoke up, leading Lin Jing to a pondside.

Lin Jing stood in the air, surveying it for a while, indeed noticing two naked children from the mountains swimming in the pond.

"Is it one of these two?"

They both seemed to have ordinary bodies, nothing special, but they were surprisingly bold, daring to play in such a dangerous pond unsupervised. Lin Jing’s divine sense swept through, detecting many surrounding poisonous beings and waters deep enough to drown the two.

"Speak, which one is it?" Lin Jing asked.

"Fellow Daoist, it’s not these two children; it’s that frog." The remnant soul pointed, revealing a sharp-eyed frog standing by the pond, its back to Lin Jing and the others, flicking its tongue to catch mosquitoes in the air time and again.

A frog...

"Are you messing with me?" Lin Jing’s face darkened. "You’re telling me the descendant of the Heavenly Emperor is this frog??"

"No, absolutely no such intention. Don’t just think of the Heavenly Emperor, even an ordinary human cultivator wouldn’t necessarily have all human Dao companions. In the Heavenly Emperor’s harem, there were immortal beauties from all races, so his descendants would also be spread across different species; there’s nothing wrong with that, is there?"

With this explanation, even Lin Jing couldn’t find fault. Even the Sect Leader of the Beast Taming Sect had taken a celestial crane as a wife, with sect disciples marrying fox demons, so having a frog tribe immortal maiden as a consort in the Heavenly Emperor’s harem...

"Still feels off." Lin Jing was silent; the idea of a frog tribe immortal maiden didn’t really seem like someone who would catch the Heavenly Emperor’s eye.

"Evidence, I have evidence. Look at its eyes, that wisdom, that dominance, that eternal gaze—could it belong to an ordinary frog? It hasn’t even reached the first level of Qi Refining, yet its intelligence is almost showing. This is clearly due to that tiny trace of the Heavenly Emperor’s bloodline."
