Beast Tamer Ascension-Chapter 73Book 6: : The Ancient Immortal Realm Targeted

Vol 6 Chapter 73: The Ancient Immortal Realm Targeted

Soon after, Lin Jing left the Ancient Archives Pavilion disappointed.

Although this old man was proficient in this field, his lifespan was still too insignificant compared to the span of the Cultivation World's history, and he simply didn't understand such ancient matters very well.

No wonder the Fuzzy Immortal had left him a deduction method before departing. It seemed he would ultimately have to rely on this after all.

Having just emerged from seclusion, Lin Jing immediately ran back to enter seclusion again, taking out the jade stone given to him by the Fuzzy Immortal and began studying this deduction technique.

This deduction technique was called "Seven Stars Soul Pursuit Art," and it didn't look like a proper deduction method at all.

This method involved the Time Dao, the Star Dao, and the Soul Dao. The caster would damage their own soul as a price, peeling off a fragment of soul to refine into a star soul. This star soul would then rapidly wander through the star realm, investigating the memories of stars to find traces of the deduced matter within this star realm.

These three paths were not unfamiliar to Lin Jing, so he didn't need to start learning from scratch. He began studying immediately while also having the Wood-attribute Pine Leaf Mouse and Dragon Carp prepare rare treasures and pills for soul recovery.

Three years later, Lin Jing's Seven Stars Soul Pursuit Art reached the beginner level, and he began refining the star soul, sending it into the star realm.

"So fast."

This star soul was an intangible entity that moved extremely quickly through the star realm, far faster than Lin Jing himself flying through space by at least a hundred times. However, this star soul had no combat capability and could only resonate with stars in various locations according to Lin Jing's needs, locking onto the person he was searching for.

What Lin Jing was looking for was naturally the inheritance factions of that batch of cultivators who came from the Ancient Immortal Realm to the Lower Realm. Perhaps they themselves had forgotten their origins, but as long as Earth bloodlines similar to Lin Jing's appeared under any star, the star soul could slowly lock onto them.

One month later, the star soul finally discovered the first one. However, after discovering that the star soul had found that Taoist Zhu Yan, Lin Jing continued the soul pursuit speechlessly.

Three months later, the star soul discovered the second one.

And unlike the first one, this place seemed to gather descendants of Earth people's bloodline on a quite large scale, which shocked Lin Jing. Although they were no longer first-generation bloodlines and had nearly assimilated with the Lower Realm, without a doubt, their ancestors were definitely people from the Ancient Immortal Realm.

Moreover, being able to have this scale, Lin Jing judged that ninety percent of them were the inheritance faction left in the Lower Realm by great powers from Earth in the Ancient Immortal Realm!

"Demon Prison Star!"

However, after the star soul dissipated and confirmed the location of these people, Lin Jing's expression turned somewhat unpleasant because this seemed to be the territory of a certain Demon General, a prison star used to detain some Lower Realm cultivators!

Rather than a normal cultivation planet.

"Why." Lin Jing wondered, why did this Demon General capture so many cultivators whose ancestors possessed Ancient Immortal Realm Earth bloodline?

Soon, Lin Jing had a guess. In fact, he had already had such assumptions long ago.

The spiritual energy recovery of Ancient Immortal Realm Earth—since that Immortal Emperor from Earth knew about this matter, then the Demon Lord who possessed the Heavenly Dao's Supreme Treasure probably knew about it ninety percent as well.

The Ancient Immortal Realm possessed numerous secrets and treasures—someone like the Demon Lord couldn't possibly be uninterested.

That Earth Immortal Emperor, because he himself came from Earth, might know the method to go to Earth relatively well.

But the Demonic Race was a race native to the current Immortal Realm, unrelated to Earth. Even if the Demon Lord possessed the Heavenly Dao's Supreme Treasure, wanting to find Earth's location and entry method would probably be difficult.

The Demonic Race would also need to expend considerable effort to go to Earth!

And how to search was also quite clear. In the current Immortal Realm, there were definitely many descendants of great power cultivators from Ancient Immortal Realm Earth. As long as they obtained some of their bloodline and delivered it to the Lower Realm, handing it over to the Demon General, then the Demon General could use this bloodline to find more similar bloodlines.

Then, through the connection between these bloodlines and Earth, slowly search for Earth.

Having figured this out, Lin Jing felt somewhat threatened again. He hadn't expected that just after the Tianyuan Realm had escaped the threat of Demon Emperor Tianchou, Earth was now being targeted by some Demon General.

"When I left Earth, the Heavenly Demon Realm definitely hadn't found the method to enter Earth yet. But so much time has passed since then—I don't know if Earth has already suffered invasion by the Heavenly Demon Sect."

"...I probably don't need to worry too much. That Emperor's envoy said that non-Earth bloodlines wanting to enter the Ancient Immortal Realm would need to withstand unimaginable pressure—the higher the cultivation level, the greater the restrictions. But I can't be completely at ease either, after all, that Demon Lord possesses the Heavenly Dao's Supreme Treasure that can sever the connection between the Immortal Realm and the mortal realm. Who knows what kind of power that supreme treasure possesses."

Lin Jing planned to leave the Pangu Continent for a while. At the very least, he needed to investigate which stage that Demon General had reached in searching for the Ancient Immortal Realm.

The territories of the Demon Generals didn't have the Cultivation Alliance's teleportation arrays, so Lin Jing could only rely on himself to cross the vast star realm to get there. During this period, who knew how much time it would consume.

"That's fine too."

Over there, he didn't know if he would conflict with the Demon General. If he went now, even if Lin Jing could defeat another Demon General, it would still cost him dearly. He no longer had much lifespan to squander like when he fought Demon Emperor Tianchou. Moreover, the remaining Demon Generals weren't like Demon Emperor Tianchou who fought alone—the number of powerful followers around them was countless.

So the time spent searching would be ideal for cultivating the Holy Egg, to ensure that when he inevitably had to confront this Demon General, he would possess the strength to counter him.

In the territory of Evil Moon Demon General, one of the Six Great Demon Generals of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Aside from the already deceased Demon Emperor Tianchou, all current Demon Generals were male. However, Evil Moon Demon General was somewhat special—he belonged to the Yin-Yang Heavenly Demon path. Although he currently displayed male characteristics, similar to Sheng Kun, he was actually a female who had performed soul usurpation on a male body.

Of course, for the current Evil Moon Demon General, the factional struggles of the Heavenly Demon sect no longer concerned him. After obtaining the position of Demon General, he no longer cared about these matters, only wanting to perfectly complete the tasks from the Immortal Realm and be guided to the upper realm by the Heavenly Demon Sect of the Immortal Realm as soon as possible to become a True Immortal.

In a great hall, the effeminate-looking Evil Moon Demon General looked at his kneeling subordinate with an unpleasant expression.

"Didn't you say that given the current spiritual energy recovery level of the 'Ancient Immortal Realm,' the highest cultivation level there is only 'Nascent Soul Stage'?"

"Then why did the person we sent over die?! Do you know how many resources we consumed to send over a Nascent Soul Transformation Stage cultivator?!"

"...Demon General, that place is, after all, the Ancient Immortal Realm. Although the current spiritual energy recovery level might only allow cultivation up to the Nascent Soul Stage at most, no one knows how many treasures left by ancient immortals remain there. Even if ordinary mortals obtain them, they could pose enormous threats to cultivators." The kneeling demonic race cultivator broke out in cold sweat.

"Then continue to bring out another cultivator with Ancient Immortal Realm bloodline from Demon Prison Star, have someone perform soul usurpation and send them over! This time, the person performing the soul usurpation must possess top-tier talent and be able to fight above their cultivation level... I remember, isn't there a junior called Sheng Kun who's quite good?"
