Beast Tamer Ascension-Chapter 21Book 5: : The Path of Celestial Beasts

Vol 5 Chapter 21: The Path of Celestial Beasts

"This is an Origin Source, which absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth along with the essence of the sun and moon. Every three hundred and sixty days, it produces a wisp of immortal energy. Each Origin Source will dissipate after generating about a hundred wisps of immortal energy."

"This particular Origin Source has its seal intact, with no immortal energy leaking out. It can last for a hundred years. Now, I present it to Junior Brother Lin."

In the White Jade Tower of Xianlin City, after welcoming Lin Jing and Gu Youran inside, Li Tianyi of the Chaotic Immortal Physique immediately offered the Origin Source.

"Many thanks, Senior Brother." Lin Jing didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the Origin Source, which resembled a transparent jade stone about the size of a fist, emanating an ethereal aura.

Seeing Lin Jing take the Origin Source from the stone box, Li Tianyi smiled and asked, "Junior Brother, do you know the several uses of this Origin Source?"

"I'm all ears," Lin Jing replied attentively.

"First, it can be used to cultivate <Immortal Dao Techniques>that require immortal energy. However, these techniques demand vast amounts of immortal energy—normally only feasible to practice in the Immortal Realm. With just the immortal energy produced by an Origin Source, progress would be painfully slow."

"Second, it can power <Immortal Dao Spells>that require immortal energy to activate. Finding a suitable immortal technique requires much less immortal energy to begin with compared to cultivation techniques. This is actually the mainstream use of immortal energy in the Origin Realm."

"Choosing immortal techniques requires careful consideration too. Some cultivators prefer using immortal energy to practice offensive spells that can turn the tide in critical moments."

"Others prefer techniques that nourish themselves during cultivation, like <Immortal Guidance Art>, a fundamental body tempering technique that's easy to learn. Its effect is to channel immortal energy into the body to strengthen one's physique..."

"The former has higher requirements but once mastered, allows one to unleash devastating spells capable of defeating stronger opponents. However, without continued immortal energy supply, the spells become unusable. The latter has lower requirements, with each wisp of immortal energy permanently enhancing one's power. Even without future access to immortal energy, the gained strength remains."

"This White Jade Tower actually houses numerous immortal techniques collected by the Cultivation Alliance. Later, Junior Brother may select one to practice... However..."

"However?" Lin Jing looked at Li Tianyi.

Li Tianyi explained, "However, this only applies to ordinary cultivators."

"For Junior Brother, there's actually another use."

"What might that be?"

"Junior Brother is a beast tamer. Beasts are also important treasures."

"If I'm not mistaken, that carp of yours is a Rare Beast! Possessing Rare Beast Divine Abilities, am I correct?"

Lin Jing understood now.

"Rare Beast Divine Abilities are actually modified special immortal techniques. However, since they lack immortal energy, these abilities are merely embryonic forms of immortal techniques that can be activated with ordinary spiritual power!!"

"Junior Brother should know that Rare Beast Divine Abilities can also be powered by immortal energy instead of spiritual power. Moreover, immortal energy can make these abilities 'evolve', bringing them closer to complete immortal techniques."

"During this process, the Rare Beast's bloodline will also evolve toward immortal-grade bloodlines. Our Cultivation Alliance has many demons transformed from Rare Beasts. Their cultivation process might serve as reference for nurturing 'spirit beasts'."

"If during this process, a spirit beast's bloodline evolves to the ultimate *immortal-grade bloodline*, becoming a Celestial Beast, even an Immortal Physique would have to retreat before its Rare Beast Divine Abilities..."

"Junior Brother himself possesses the corpse of an immortal-grade bloodline demon beast, so he should understand the power of such bloodlines..."

"Therefore, you might want to consider allocating more immortal energy for this purpose." Li Tianyi smiled, expressing goodwill.

Many Rare Beasts...

Lin Jing fell silent. Earlier outside the city, he had indeed sensed many demonic beasts' auras.

It seemed that Rare Beasts, extremely rare in the Tianyuan Realm, weren't so uncommon when considering the entire lower realm.

After all, in this Cultivation Alliance, there were probably many with Immortal Physiques, so having more Rare Beasts wasn't particularly surprising.

However, Rare Beasts varied in quality. Lin Jing believed that the Pine Leaf Mouse and Dragon Carp's inherited Rare Beast Divine Abilities ranked among the top tier he had encountered.

"Thank you for the reminder, Senior Brother." After Li Tianyi's advice, Lin Jing thought that instead of using the immortal energy himself, his true form should focus on strengthening his spirit beasts.

After all, Rare Beasts were already semi-immortal entities.

Originally, Lin Jing had thought that compared to his immortal-energy-affinity Water Lotus incarnation, his true form might not utilize immortal energy efficiently. Given this, he decided to fully commit to the beast taming path—directly using immortal energy to strengthen his spirit beasts, striving to help them become Celestial Beasts as soon as possible.

Once they became Celestial Beasts, his true form's power would naturally elevate as well.

All beast taming secret techniques could then unleash greater power.

As Lin Jing and Li Tianyi conversed, Gu Youran remained silent nearby. Only when Li Tianyi inquired about the Tianyuan Realm did Lin Jing introduce Gu Youran properly.

"Regarding Tianyuan Realm matters, Senior Brother Li should consult her. Her father is currently the strongest in Tianyuan Realm, while her grandfather was formerly the strongest. She knows the Tianyuan Realm much better than I do."

"Oh??" Li Tianyi looked at Gu Youran with slight surprise.

"Is the Fairy the daughter of the Tianyuan Immortal Palace's master?" Through the Tianming Realm, Li Tianyi knew that palace masters were typically the strongest in their factions.

However, facing Li Tianyi's question, Gu Youran calmly stated, "The Tianyuan Immortal Palace... has long fallen."

"Now, the Tianyuan Ancient Kingdom is the foremost power in Tianyuan Realm."

Li Tianyi's mouth opened slightly in surprise. It was rare for an Immortal King's lower realm legacy to perish completely.

"A nation-type power then..." Li Tianyi's focus returned to Lin Jing, asking, "Then Junior Brother Lin..."

"Could you be a disciple of the Tianyuan Ancient Kingdom's strongest cultivator?"

After all, Lin Jing and Gu Youran seemed close. Moreover, for a Longevity Body to reach perfection surely required powerful backing.

Lin Jing smiled slightly, "Not quite. Although I was once a cultivator of the Ancient Kingdom, I later joined the Demon Court dominated by demonic beasts. Now I'm the Holy Son of the Demon Court. Essentially, Princess Youran and I are more like enemies than friends..."

Even the unparalleled genius Li Tianyi fell silent momentarily. What kind of situation was this? A walking longevity medicine in the eyes of demonic beasts was actually their Holy Son???

This utterly perplexing identity made Li Tianyi speculate whether Lin Jing's current strength resulted precisely from growing up in such extreme circumstances.
