Immortal through Beast Taming

The onset of the Golden Era benefited many cultivators.

For some demon beasts with powerful bloodlines, successfully propagating offspring is extremely difficult.

For some cultivators with powerful cultivation, how to ensure their descendants perfectly inherit their cultivation talents is also a challenge.

However, with the onset of the Golden Era, it didn't take long for various royal bloodlines and ancestral demon offspring to be born like mushrooms after a rain.

Various divine manifestations also accompanied the birth of one newborn after another, appearing across the Celestial Essence Continent.

The Celestial Essence Realm has ushered in the best era, not only reflected in the new generation, but for the old generation as well, the coming of the Golden Era also loosened their bottlenecks.

The number one sword sect under the heavens, the ancient Celestial Sword Sect.

One of the ancestors, the Heaven-Sundering Sword Ancestor, had been stuck at the bottleneck of the Void Profundity Peak for a thousand years, unable to break through. Finally, in the third year of the Golden Era's onset, he severed this bottleneck and became the first successful cultivator in a millennium to achieve the Inquiry stage.

The reason the Celestial Sword Sect is the second-largest sect in the ancient kingdom, rather than the largest, is that the Spirit Dao Sect has an Inquiry-stage ancestor, while the Celestial Sword Sect's Inquiry-stage ancestor had long passed away. But now, in terms of top-tier strength, both sides have finally drawn even.

Furthermore, due to the breakthrough of the Heaven-Sundering Sword Ancestor, many old monsters were inspired and, against the backdrop of this Golden Era, began entering closed cultivation. For a time, few older generation cultivators showed their faces, and the continent, due to the appearance of the Golden Rankings of Fortune, gradually became a paradise for geniuses of all races vying for fortune.

The Heaven-Sundering Sword Ancestor's personal disciple, Ling Yue Sword Immortal, also due to the Golden Era, fortuitously became the continent's only Inquiry Sword Cultivator disciple. Although she had only recently broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, she still ascended the Golden Fortune Rankings with an unrivaled momentum.

Heirs of major forces, aiming to become the protagonists of the era, began traveling across the continent to improve their strength and seize the fortunes of other geniuses.

The closed cultivation of the older generation and the roaming of the new generation seeking fortune became the main theme of this Golden Era.

Against such a background, at every moment, countless astonishing tales are born on the continent, leading to the situation where, five years after the start of the Golden Era, the protagonist of the once sensational major event in Qingzhou is no longer the most discussed protagonist of the era.

Except… within the Demon Court.

"Your Majesty, has His Highness the Saint Son not emerged yet?"

"It's been five years, His Highness the Saint Son has been in closed cultivation for five years, should we be worried about any accidents?"

"The Saint Son possesses a Longevity Body, cultivation progresses slowly. It's only been five years, why rush? Your task now is to expand the Demon Court's territory in Qingzhou. When the Saint Son emerges, I will naturally reward meritorious deeds."

The Demon Emperor waved a hand, routinely dismissing the elder races of the Demon Court.

Since the revival of the demon race, more and more demon beasts wish to join the Demon Court. However, the Demon Court does not accept everyone indiscriminately. The intent of these demon beast races to join the Demon Court is almost always to transform into the demon race.

But the problem is, the production capacity of Transformation Grass and Transformation Pills is severely insufficient; even the Demon Court cannot distribute them evenly, so demon beast races wanting to join the Demon Court to share in the benefits must undergo stringent selection.

"Should be soon, right?" The Demon Emperor looked in the direction where Lin Jing was.

This Golden Era, even she felt the possibility of advancing her cultivation level, the Longevity Body, although slow to cultivate, shouldn't reasonably take this long.

At the same time.

Immortal Prison Mountain.

At this moment, the territory of Lin Jing has already become a bona fide Immortal Prison, as the entire underground of this mountain has been transformed into a prison for detaining demon beasts.

Over the years, Mosquito Maiden, following Lin Jing's orders, led countless swarms to capture an unknown number of demon beasts and seal them beneath the mountain, waiting for Lin Jing to emerge and refine them into pills.

As for Lin Jing himself, almost no one knows that he actually successfully broke through to Golden Core a year ago.

Even Lin Jing did not expect that it only took him four years to break through from Foundation Establishment Perfection to Early-stage Golden Core, considering it took him a full ten years to go from Qi Cultivation to Foundation Establishment.

This caused him not to dare to break through in the Hourglass of Time, as the maximum one can remain in the Hourglass of Time is ten years. If he hadn't broken through successfully within ten years, being forcibly transported out by the Hourglass of Time would certainly disrupt his progress and cause a breakthrough failure.

Therefore, he chose to break through in the outside world directly, but who knew it would only take four years.

However, thinking carefully, it was due to ill-preparation at the time, while now, not only was he well-prepared, but he also had the Golden Era's blessing, making it reasonable.

However, after breaking through to Golden Core, Lin Jing was still not content without mastering the Celestial Demon Body, and he went into deep cultivation in the Hourglass of Time for ten years, using part of the latent dragon fortune he obtained before to enhance all the magic and divine techniques he had, whether he had learned them or not.

Unfortunately, the Celestial Demon Body he most wished to master, remained unlearned...

Fortunately, in other aspects, there were considerable gains during these ten years in the Hourglass of Time.

Among them, there were three major gains in these ten years.

First, the physical body.

Once in the Beast Taming Sect, Lin Jing and Elder Shen Song allocated several spiritual plants, and since these spiritual plants were acquired in the Immortal Palace Grotto Heaven, even from the perspective of Lin Jing, the Demon Court Saint Child, their effects were tremendously powerful.

After reaching the consummation of the Cyan Emperor Longevity Skill of the Songleaf Squirrel, they have now all been matured.

The Heart Demon Bane, Cloud Concealment Orchid, Lin Jing ingested directly, ensuring he would not succumb to heart demons or madness, no matter how many he has killed or how long he lives.

The Nine Yang Divine Mushroom can provide fire or sun-attributed cultivators with a direct boost of a hundred years of skill, with no side effects and a solid foundation - this, Lin Jing gave to the Dragon Carp. Therefore, after Lin Jing broke through to Golden Core, its cultivation level directly soared to Golden Core Peak.

According to Elder Shen Song's judgment, this one Nine Yang Divine Mushroom should have been enough to advance the Dragon Carp to the Nascent Soul, but with its bloodline merely at the king level at that time and now close to ancestral blood, it can withstand more mana, causing the Dragon Carp to be just one step away from the Nascent Soul Realm.

However, in terms of strength, it can undoubtedly contend with a Nascent Soul Demon King across levels.

And most importantly, the Nine-Life Exquisite Grass grants an exceptionally powerful regenerative ability, known as having a Nine Lives Body.

Lin Jing ingested it himself.

After consuming the Nine-Life Exquisite Grass, Lin Jing immediately took out the Thunder Dragon Scale Blood and, with the heavenly thunder flames of the Dragon Carp and the tribulation lightning power of the Ice Soul Gu, began his body refinement.

Under the refinement of thunderfire power, Lin Jing's physical body, after a period of time, approached that of a genius of the Dragon Race. Even though his mana cultivation is only at the early-stage Golden Core, the strength of his flesh has already reached the level of a Golden Core Great Perfection Realm genius of the Thunder Dragon Race.

This means that even without any defensive methods, Lin Jing could withstand most Golden Core Stage cultivators' attacks and divine techniques with his physical body alone, without getting injured. Even if injured, his regenerative ability allows him to recover immediately.

And yet, this is not Lin Jing's greatest achievement.

His second major achievement is the Golden Core Divine Technique he conceived himself, "The Art of Divine Dominion".
