Immortal through Beast Taming-Chapter 646 - 8: Ascension to Immortality

The choices made by the Demon Emperor and Mo Song made Lin Jing feel both helpless and amused.

The Ancient Immortal Realm might not be as wonderful as they imagined, and the future could also be the center of a maelstrom.

However, the current Immortal Realm isn't that great either. Although the Immortal Palace used to be the line of the Immortal Emperor, it has now fallen to the level of an Immortal King lineage.

Though the former imperial foundation might make other forces wary, ensuring the Immortal Palace's strong standing in the Immortal Realm without invasion, as an Immortal King lineage, the Immortal Palace finds it hard to ensure the safety of every disciple within the Immortal Realm.

Especially for those who ascended from the Celestial Essence Realm.

The Immortal Realm's demon clan will surely hold a grudge against the ascenders from the Celestial Essence Realm because of him, so it's not very safe there either, unless one stays within the Immortal Palace and doesn't venture across the Immortal Realm.

Lin Jing's true body also began to cultivate.

Compared to his avatar, what the true body needed to do was to accept the gift from the Immortal Realm along with the pet beasts.

Infinite Immortal Body, Reincarnation Immortal Body.

True blood of the Immortal Emperor of the demon clan.

One could significantly boost the foundation of the true body, while the other vastly expanded the potential of each pet beast.

Except for the Mechanical Turtle.

This guy is a combination of a mechanical beast and a spirit body, unable to enhance its bloodline by absorbing the true blood of the Immortal Emperor...

So while the other pet beasts cultivated their bloodlines, Lin Jing had to find another way... not to let the Mechanical Turtle fall too far behind.

This probably needs to rely on the Immortal Realm; now that the Cultivation Realm and the Immortal Realm are connected again, Immortals can suppress their cultivation to descend and transport Immortal Realm resources, then the way of mechanisms in the Immortal Realm and more advanced mechanical materials will be Lin Jing's focus to learn and acquire. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

"You may go now."

Lin Jing looked at the Mechanical Turtle. Since it couldn't accept the true blood of the demon clan's Immortal Emperor, then... it should wander first, quietly awaiting future opportunities.

"A Celestial Essence Realm is a bit small for you now."

"The cultivation realm is so vast that even the Immortal Realm is incomparable. Excluding some secret realms opened by great powers of the Immortal Realm, the four Immortal Realms combined can barely equal the cultivation realm in space."

"With such a vast lower realm, we have ample time to explore it next. I hope you can bring back some good news."

"Rest assured!" The Mechanical Turtle said nonchalantly. Unlike other pet beasts, who obediently stayed in the Celestial Essence Realm to cultivate, it couldn't bear it; wandering is its path!

"Safe travels." Before the Mechanical Turtle left, Lin Jing updated its talent again, no longer letting it search for life-extension items. With the Immortal Tree, life-extending items in the lower realm are dispensable for Lin Jing.

Even if extending life for others, his Longevity Immortal Body and the power of the Star Longevity Crane are much better than ordinary life-extending items.

So now the Mechanical Turtle's task is to seek out ancient artifacts.

The older, the better.

Since there are places in the lower realm like the Pangu Continent, which contains holy power, perhaps in some unknown corner, there are even more astonishing things.

After all, no matter how epochs change, the four Immortal Realms and the Cultivation Realm still remain these four places. The Cultivation Realm has gone through many epochs, and if the Mechanical Turtle is lucky, it's not impossible to dig up treasures from a previous era or inheritances left by powerful figures of a certain epoch.

Staying in the lower realm for so long, Lin Jing is determined to explore every corner of this cultivation realm. Only he has the time, energy, and strength to do so.

......

The years pass in both realms at a certain pace.

The Celestial Demon Sect has completely abandoned the lower realm, at least during Lin Jing's time in the Celestial Essence Realm. He never received any intelligence from the Cultivation Alliance about demon clan disturbances anywhere.

His task was supposedly to guard the lower realm, but in reality, it was very leisurely, giving Lin Jing ample time for cultivation.

In the blink of an eye, a thousand years passed.

The entire lower realm remained peaceful, as if returning to the former landscape. During this millennium, he spent all his time accepting the power of the Infinite Immortal Body and did nothing else.

Meanwhile, the pet beasts very successfully cultivated their bloodlines to the potential of an Immortal King level. Yet, while bloodline isn't the cultivation realm, too much potential is still suppressed by the rules of the lower realm. Though they cultivated to an Immortal King-level bloodline, their ability to exert power still falls short of a true Immortal King's bloodline.

Presumably, they will need to ascend to the Immortal Realm to activate their full bloodline potential.

Over the millennium, more and more Seeking Dao Cultivators from the Celestial Essence Realm chose to ascend, even those prodigies from the same era as Lin Jing have started to ascend.

Though not quite like the drastic changes of the cycles, people who have experienced and intersected with Lin Jing, with the opening of the ascension path, undoubtedly started to wane.

"In a few thousand more years, perhaps the people I've spoken with in the lower realm can be counted on two hands." Lin Jing chuckled, shaking his head, very much in awe.

"It's still better on the avatar's side. A millennium passes here, yet there, under three years have gone by..."

Ancient Immortal Realm, Earth.

Though in the Ancient Immortal Realm less than three years have passed, the changes in the world have been much more rapid than the calm, tranquil lower realm…

The avatar retreated in the Celestial Emperor's Tomb, uninvolved with worldly affairs. As the resurgence of spiritual energy intensified, outside has entered a full-blown cultivation era, even ordinary people without cultivation aptitude have become good cultivation prospects under the baptism of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

Some diseases once incurable, and health issues have completely vanished in this age.

Countries no longer conceal the resurgence of spiritual energy, nor can they hide it, those naturally evolved goblins and ghosts grow increasingly uncontrollable.

Every country established academies to teach cultivation, and sects began to widely recruit disciples, appearing before the masses.

This is change, yet unchanged is that parents still need to buy "school district housing" for their children to attend good cultivation schools, still having to shoulder home loans...

"Congratulations, kid."

In the Celestial Emperor's Tomb, immortal mists swirled, Immortal Power circulated within Lin Jing, nourishing his whole body, immortal primordial spirit, immortal body, immortal soul... Lin Jing's avatar, after nearly three years… counting the time array, untold years of arduous cultivation, finally elevated to the True Immortal rank amidst the Earth rules gradually reviving.

First Layer of the True Immortal Realm.

True Immortal, Immortal Monarch, Immortal King, each realm with Nine Layer Heavens, the avatar opened his eyes, exhaling purple Qi: "Thank you, senior guardian, but my successful breakthrough also illustrates that today's Earth can bear the descent of a True Immortal..."

"Enemies, may very well arrive soon."

"No, it seems they're here now, though... this enemy, isn't that enemy." Lin Jing sensed the call for help from the Ice Soul Child Gu, appearing to encounter troubles it couldn't resolve.

It wasn't the demon clan, but ancient cultivators from the Ancient Immortal Realm also revived, and the official Dao Alliance found it hard to suppress.
