Immortal through Beast Taming

Chapter 34: Dragon Palace



The person who suddenly started speaking was none other than Gao Sheng, looking curious.

"Although I don't cultivate Beast Taming Sect techniques and can't sign a bloodline contract with a dragon pet, there are more ways to tame beasts than just bloodline contracts. Just imagine having a dragon pet that can rival a Divine Body, how exhilarating that would be."

In the crowd, Xu Zhizhi looked at Gao Sheng. Could this guy be a shill arranged by Lin Jing?

To be honest, he even suspected that Wang Xiao was bought off. Up to now, he still found it hard to accept. He looked at the silly dragon carp in the arena. How could this dragon carp possibly rival a Divine Body... if it were a battle of the same level, wouldn't he be instantly defeated by this carp?

Relying solely on the Hidden Dragon Secret Technique and this pill, can it truly achieve such a feat?

Lin Jing looked at Gao Sheng and smiled, "As long as they're raised properly, even if they're not as good as my dragon carp, they'll definitely be very powerful. As for the price..."

Completely matching the flame dragon carp is impossible, as others do not have the Blood of Longevity to nurture their pet beasts. However, Lin Jing had tried the medication many times, and only with full confidence did he dare to sell them.

"Since we are all classmates, if you also want to raise a dragon pet, I definitely won't be stingy."

"Let's calculate the price based on the average price of third-grade pills!"

"In addition, I plan to establish a student organization, a platform for interested cultivators to discuss how to raise dragon pets. As long as you buy a Dragon Ascending Pill and join the organization, I, Lin, will plan the entire process of raising the dragon pet for everyone. How about it? Isn't it a great deal?"

A student organization?!

Everyone was stunned.

Xu Zhizhi took a deep breath, feeling that Lin Jing had grand ambitions.

The student organizations in this academy are the embryonic form of ancient country factions, generally established only by geniuses from prestigious families. And the talented individuals from small forces who join them are actually affiliating themselves with these factions to better survive in the Cultivation Realm in the future.

Lin Jing, a freshman from a third-rate sect, actually has the ambition to establish a student organization!

How could anyone be willing to associate with him!

"Is that for real? I'm in!" The next moment, someone spoke up—it was Gao Sheng again.

"Damn, there really is someone joining!" Xu Zhizhi was dumbfounded. This descendant of Divinity Transformation doesn't go mingle with those from prestigious families; what's he doing involving himself with Lin Jing!

"Student organization? What's it called!" Gao Sheng said with great interest.

He happened to have a Foundation Establishment Dragon Horse, though it wasn't of royal bloodline. Even with his status, it wasn't easy for his family to procure a king beast cub for him, let alone a Dragon Blood King Beast cub.

Lin Jing's dragon carp could be said to be a temptation for Gao Sheng. The thought of his dragon horse potentially rivalling the same-level Divine Body made Gao Sheng salivate.

He came to the academy purely under his family's coercion, with no intention to network widely. His interests were what mattered to him the most.

"Dragon Palace," Lin Jing said. "The student organization I want to establish is called Dragon Palace."

"Besides Brother Gao, is there any other classmate interested?"

After Lin Jing finished speaking, the crowd started buzzing with discussion.

Many freshmen showed a strange expression, not understanding what Lin Jing was up to.

"Dragon Palace? Is it possible to sell me a Dragon Ascending Pill right now, I'd like to try it out first."

Zi Ling'Er from the Pill Furnace Sect was the second to speak. She was very interested in the Dragon Ascending Pill, convinced that this kind of pill had appeared on the continent for the first time.

"Count me in as well." Yuan Jing looked at the dragon carp. Although his most anticipated partner was a "Sword Spirit", it's impossible not to be tempted by an infant dragon that could rival a Divine Body.

"Brother Xu, what about you?" Seeing that the partners he had once entered the Grotto Heaven with were very supportive, Lin Jing looked at Xu Zhizhi with a smile.

This guy was still hesitating.

On one hand, Xu Zhizhi was indeed envious of the dragon pet. Everyone had seen the recent battle. But on the other hand, he felt that joining Lin Jing would not help him navigate the bureaucratic arena in the future!

He was still hesitating among several student organizations established by influential children of nobility!

"Count me in as well! But make sure to give me a discount on the pills!"

Xu Zhizhi's eyes turned red. The Qilin Child of the Wang Family from the Capital City had been suppressed by Lin Jing, so why choose the children of nobility!

He hoped that Lin Jing wasn't just a flash in the pan, a talent that disappears quickly. He didn't know if this choice was right or wrong, but he gave up the chance to cling to children of influential families and boarded Lin Jing's mythical beast—car!

...

The promotional goal of the dragon carp's battle with Wang Xiao had already been achieved. Now, all the freshmen present wanted to see firsthand the effect of the Dragon Ascending Pill.

"I don't have enough Spirit Stones with me, can I trade this pill for a Dragon Ascending Pill with you, is that okay?" Zi Ling'Er threw out a medicine bottle.

"This is a third-grade pill, the 'Giant Spirit Pill,' which allows low-level cultivators to simulate a 'Nascent Soul Manifestation' once and experience the power of a Nascent Soul. Among third-grade pills, its price is also top-notch."

"Of course." Lin Jing took the Giant Spirit Pill. Third-grade pills are used by Golden Core cultivators, and this Giant Spirit Pill is pretty good.

The actual cost of the Dragon Ascending Pill is not high among third-grade pills. The only expensive part is the blood of demon beasts in the Demon Core Stage, but the rest of the materials are synthesized by pine leaf rats. Once the dragon carp reaches the Demon Core Stage, they won't even need to buy dragon blood anymore.

Lin Jing tossed a Dragon Ascending Pill to Zi Ling'Er as well.

"Purple Fairy, do you have a pet beast?" he asked.

"I have a Foundation Establishment Stage pill beast used for testing medicine, currently in my cave mansion," Zi Ling'Er said. "Everyone can come with me."

Saying so, she could not wait to take the Dragon Ascending Pill. True Essence coagulated, and she flew toward a mountain peak. Seeing this, everyone immediately flew over to follow.

In no time, everyone arrived at Zi Ling'Er's Academy Cave Mansion. She made a hand gesture, the stone gate of the cave mansion opened, and then a white demon rabbit at the early stage of Foundation Establishment slowly walked out.

"Master, what's going on... so many people, I'm scared." The white demon rabbit spoke in a soft voice, looking fearfully at the dozens of cultivators.

"I have a pill here for you to try," Zi Ling'Er took out a Dragon Ascending Pill and tossed it to the white demon rabbit.

"That's... a Pill Rabbit!" someone recognized the demon rabbit's species, a unique breed known for its bloodline constitution that can lessen various pill poisons, specifically bred and raised by the Pill Furnace Sect. Although not strong in combat, it is highly compatible with alchemists.

"Purple Fairy, although Pill Rabbits are perfect for testing pills, their bloodline strength isn't very high, so they might not be able to fully showcase the effect of the Dragon Ascending Pill," Lin Jing said. "The stronger the bloodline before ingesting the pill, the higher the purity of the transformed dragon blood!"

"It doesn't matter." Zi Ling'Er replied, and then, under her gaze, the Pill Rabbit consumed the Dragon Ascending Pill...

Thump! Thump!

The heartbeat of the Pill Rabbit became extremely loud, a trace of cloudiness appeared in its red eyes, and a terrifying dragon majesty began to emanate from its body, a strong deterrence that caused some Foundation Establishment geniuses around to feel unnerved.

Dragon majesty is far more frightening than the aura of the same level cultivators!

With a buzz, spiritual power dispersed, and the Pill Rabbit broke through to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment. Its form underwent massive changes in the process. Its fur shed, its body size increased drastically, its forelimbs became exceptionally sturdy, and its muscles were tightly wrapped around its bones like coiled vines, its hind limbs even more astonishing, with their muscles bulging like mountains.

The muscles on its back and waist were sleek and firm, outlining an awe-inspiring dragon-like figure. As it slightly turned, the movement of the back muscles resembled the undulations of a divine dragon. Its abdomen, though covered with short fur, still clearly displayed eight-pack abs...

Its two long ears transformed into a pair of red dragon horns.

Seeing this, Zi Ling'Er took a deep breath and said, "Attack me and give it a try."

The next moment, the Pill Rabbit glanced at Zi Ling'Er and kicked, shattering her protective True Essence, instantly transforming into a purple light as she was kicked into the mountain, spitting a mouthful of blood.

Everyone was dumbfounded. Was this the once gentle Pill Rabbit? Somehow it seemed that this kick had an air of long-standing grudge rather than testing strength.
