Immortal through Beast Taming-Chapter 622 - 75: Captive

"Welcome to Earth."

The Celestial Demon looked at Sheng Kun, surprised for a moment, then smiled.

However, in Sheng Kun's eyes, that smile didn't appear friendly at all.

"You should have a black token with you, right?"

"Considering our acquaintance, hand it over to me and I won't kill you."

Sheng Kun was the second Demon Cultivator to arrive on Earth.

The first had already been accidentally killed by the Celestial Demon.

As soon as the first arrived on Earth, the Celestial Demon felt the other's bloodline fluctuation and descended upon the location immediately.

After capturing the intruder, the Celestial Demon conducted a soul-searching to find out the purpose of coming to Earth.

Unfortunately, the other's mind seemed to have been imprinted with a restriction, containing secrets that couldn't be probed. After the soul-searching, no information was obtained, and the person died on their own.

Fortunately, the Celestial Demon still gained some spoils of war.

One of these spoils was a fragmented black token.

After research, if the judgment was correct, it should be a transmission token.

The enemy most likely came from the Cultivation Realm, so the purpose of this transmission token is self-explanatory.

Surely, it was used to transmit from Earth back to the Cultivation Realm.

In other words, as long as the token was obtained, even if the true self couldn't find me, I could transmit back to the Cultivation Realm using the token.

But the token being fragmented marked a severe problem—that the transmission token seemed to be bound to the Demon Cultivator's life...

Moreover, it's highly likely that only the owner could use it.

Even so, it gave the Celestial Demon hope. Although he kept researching the shattered token, unfortunately, broken things remained broken and were difficult to restore.

This made him vow that if a new Demon Cultivator arrived, he must leave them alive to ensure the token didn't shatter, thereby enabling more research.

Soon after... Sheng Kun arrived.

"Kill me??" Sheng Kun sneered, already noticing something.

"Void Profound Cultivation, your cultivation seems to be merely Void Profound."

"It seems you are just a Celestial Demon, not Lin Jing, speaking of killing me with just an avatar is underestimating me."

"Ah, so that's it... No wonder you all have such inherent potential; it turns out the fourth Alliance Leader of the Cultivation Alliance is a person with Ancient Immortal Realm bloodline. Although I don't know how you came to be in the Ancient Immortal Realm, your true self probably got the chance to kill the Celestial Revenge Demon Emperor from there, right?"

Sheng Kun finally understood why Lin Jing's growth was terrifying and why he was capable of killing the Celestial Revenge Demon Emperor.

If it was related to the opportunities from the Ancient Immortal Realm, it made sense.

At this moment, Sheng Kun's heart burned with a stronger desire. If he could obtain the same opportunity in the Ancient Immortal Realm, the position of a Demon General would be at his fingertips!

"Did you... misunderstand something?"

The Celestial Demon looked indifferently, a mere avatar?

Very rude indeed.

However, this Sheng Kun did bring him good news.

The true self had already killed the Celestial Revenge Demon Emperor.

Unfortunately, the time flow here was slower, and not much time had passed. Currently, the cultivation of his avatar was still only Void Profound, not even reaching Inquiry.

But... it was enough to suppress the Sheng Kun before him.

"Celestial Demon Finger..."

The Celestial Demon's avatar unleashed a very simple Divine Technique.

This technique, Sheng Kun was naturally very familiar with, even capable of crossing countless spaces and displaying a Celestial Demon Finger to crush enemies during his Divinity Transformation Stage.

But...

Boom!

Facing the pressing finger of the Celestial Demon's avatar, Sheng Kun was about to resist when his expression changed dramatically, revealing an incredulous look.

After the black finger pierced through the air, a phantom of an Immortal King appeared, ascending to the heavens and radiating a terrifying pressure.

Ka.

In an instant, despite her swiftly using the Celestial Demon Body to burn her lifespan and raising her cultivation to the Inquiry Stage, all of her bones shattered, and her entire body became a vague mass under that finger, like a lump of flesh.

Thump!

Thump!

Her heart throbbed violently, cracking open, and Sheng Kun had never felt death so close.

Cold sweat flowed from her entire body, mixed with blood oozing from her seven orifices. Just as the Celestial Demon Finger was about to land on her, fortunately, the Celestial Demon halted at the last moment.

Huff. Huff. Huff.

Looking at Sheng Kun, half-kneeling on the ground, panting, pale, and dazed, the Celestial Demon glanced at his own finger, withered to just bones...

Immortal King - Celestial Demon Finger.

The name he gave to this enhanced Celestial Demon Finger.

In the Celestial Emperor's Tomb, they had obtained an Immortal King's finger bone, this bone was not taken by his true self but was left for him.

The reason his cultivation hadn't improved a minor realm was because he was comprehending the mysteries of the Immortal King's finger bone.

He discovered that, although the finger bone possessed astonishing divinity and infinite power, it wasn't violent, similar to the stable Immortal Bone of the Eternal Emperor's lineage.

Eventually, he chose to directly replace his own finger bone with this Immortal King's finger bone.

Such boldness was due to the finger bone being given by the ancestors of the Celestial Emperor Frog, meant to enhance its power, so naturally, there wouldn't be any danger. Otherwise, how could ancestors give it to their descendants?

After attaching the Immortal King's finger bone, even though he couldn't fully unleash its power, the power of the Celestial Demon's Divine Technique reached unimaginable levels—a power that could even pierce lower-grade Immortal Artifacts.

Using it against Sheng Kun was naturally not an issue.

"This is it." The Celestial Demon took the storage bag from the other party and found a black token inside because Sheng Kun wasn't dead, so the token remained intact. It was just unclear if anyone other than Sheng Kun could use it.

Of course, even if he could immediately use the token and leave, the Celestial Demon wouldn't leave temporarily. If he left, there wouldn't be many left on Earth who could resist the Demons.

Moreover... this thing didn't know where it would transmit him to, maybe the Celestial Demon Realm, so he kept the token for collection and research. As to when it would be used, he didn't actually know.

"Sheng Kun."

"I said, I won't kill you."

"Shouldn't you repay me? Tell me, what's the purpose of the Celestial Demon Sect sending you to Earth."

The Celestial Demon looked at her, not daring to soul-search for fear of killing her again, also not clear if she had been imposed with a restriction on revealing her mission objectives.

"Heh heh..." Even though she faced a crushing defeat, Sheng Kun quickly recovered, looking miserably at the Celestial Demon, saying, "Want to know?"

"I'm afraid you can't know; I can't say it either."

Her eyes dimmed, once again experiencing the overwhelming force of opportunity in the Ancient Immortal Realm, but unfortunately, she... was a step too late.

"Kill me, but after killing me there will definitely be stronger demons descending... This Ancient Immortal Realm, you can't defend it."
