Immortal through Beast Taming-Chapter 566 - 21: Rich Kid

Regarding the matter spoken by the Immortal’s remnant soul, Lin Jing believed it to an extent.

The tomb has a spirit!

It will treat unfamiliar grave robbers and descendants differently.

This is also an experience Lin Jing gained from a certain Immortal Palace Secret Realm, where the realm spirit acted for personal gain and benefits.

Faced with the erosion of celestial tombs during the End of Dharma Era, the tombs might prefer benefiting descendants related to its lineage rather than outsiders, offering a green light to Celestial Emperor’s heirs — perhaps it was the Emperor’s own consciousness all along, which is entirely possible.

This also explains why this grave robber could retreat safely from the Celestial Emperor’s Tomb and survive with its blessings to this day.

With nothing else occupying his time, Lin Jing grew interested in the Celestial Emperor’s Tomb mentioned by the remnant soul. In fact, from a certain perspective, its value seems not much less than the Celestial Destiny sought by the Eastern Desolation Immortal Emperor.

Merging with the Celestial Destiny is a prerequisite to becoming an Immortal Emperor.

He could be called a Young Immortal Emperor.

But if one were to obtain the inheritance of the Celestial Emperor at the Immortal Emperor Realm, wouldn’t that be equally formidable, warranting the title Young Immortal Emperor?

However, it’s troublesome to need a Celestial Emperor’s descendant as a medium.

"Next, take me to find a Celestial Emperor’s descendant."

"Yes, yes."

Led by the remnant soul, Lin Jing’s real body followed him, but, recalling his purpose at the cultivators’ gathering, Lin Jing left his avatar behind.

A figure in black clothes, "Magic Taro," appeared atop Mount Purple Gold. The avatar no longer pretended, as years of ruling in the Source Realm and being wanted across myriad realms meant his demon avatar was common knowledge. Therefore, the avatar directly used the same appearance as Lin Jing’s real body, except darker and more menacing in demeanor.

While the real body ventured out, the avatar continued hunting for treasures.

And... awaiting the Ten Thousand Poison Sect’s ancestor, who would walk into the trap.

"Apparently, treasures aren’t that easy to find."

Yet after wandering around, Lin Jing failed to find another decent treasure.

Truthfully, there were still treasures, but anything below immortal-grade, Lin Jing was uninterested in seeking out.

His collection below the immortal grade was too vast. One must realize that the coalition of celestial prodigies from past worlds made Lin Jing incredibly wealthy. Since he didn’t lack low-grade treasures, he might as well leave these opportunities to other lucky souls.

"It seems things have been resolved on Lu Mountain Hermit’s end."

As Lin Jing prepared to return, he accidentally spotted Lin Lan, who had ventured out with Lu Mountain Hermit, in the cultivator’s town.

At the moment, Lu Mountain Hermit, using her connections with the Dao Alliance, lawfully secured a panda pet beast for Lin Lan, who immediately walked it out after bonding.

Perched atop Lin Lan’s head, the panda pet beast curiously looked around. Seeing this, Lin Jing recalled when Lin Lan, as a child, wore a hollowed watermelon rind as a hat, receiving a good scolding.

"She loves watermelon so much; I should’ve asked Song Leaf Mouse to evolve a watermelon spirit for her to contract."

Lin Jing approached but quickly halted because Lin Lan seemed to have encountered some trouble...

"May I know the names of these two fairies?"

A man and woman blocked Lu Mountain Hermit and Lin Lan. The man, wearing Hanfu, carried an extraordinary air, while the luxurious and delicate woman curiously stared at Lin Lan’s pet beast, eyes filled with fondness.

"Is it possible to part with this spiritual beast? My sister likes it a lot, name your price, fairies."

The man noted Lu Mountain Hermit’s Foundation Establishment Stage and Lin Lan and the panda pet beast’s Peak Qi Cultivation, yet confidently blocked them, for his cultivation was higher, appearing quite young yet at mid-Foundation Establishment Stage.

The woman beside him also possessed near-peak Qi Cultivation, rare for her age.

"Shanghai City, Xuantian Pavilion, Young Pavilion Master, Xiao Nian?" Though they didn’t recognize her with her youthful appearance, Lu Mountain Hermit instantly identified him!

The largest cultivator force in Shanghai City, the heir to Xuantian Pavilion, which reportedly owns multiple spirit veins, making it the richest cultivation force in China! 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Lu Mountain Hermit hadn’t expected to encounter Xuantian Pavilion members, and the other party had their eyes on the spiritual beast Lin Lan just contracted.

"Since sir recognizes me, then it’s easy to discuss. I notice the spiritual beast appears to belong to this fairy..."

"A second-grade Foundation Establishment Pill, one that can give a three-tenths chance for peak Qi Cultivation to successfully establish a foundation, traded for this spiritual beast, how about it?" Xuantian Pavilion’s Young Pavilion Master smiled slightly, but met Lin Lan’s look at him as if he was an idiot.

"That’s wishful thinking."

Lin Lan couldn’t help but speak. The pet beast Lin Jing gifted her couldn’t be exchanged for a mere Foundation Establishment Pill.

"I am Lu Mountain Hermit and this is my disciple Lin Lan. Young Pavilion Master, my disciple doesn’t wish to trade her spiritual beast, let’s leave it at that." Lu Mountain Hermit began ushering them away.

Young Pavilion Master of Xuantian Pavilion paused, Lu Mountain Hermit?

He remembered Lu Mountain Hermit was an old lady.

How had she become so young, he had taken quite a few glances earlier.

Could she have found a Youthful Pill somewhere?

"So it’s Lu Mountain Hermit. My sister truly likes this spiritual beast. She has been browsing the town for quite some time and only took a liking to this one. Can’t you part with it? Adding three bottles of pills to assist Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation on top of the existing Foundation Establishment Pill, how about it?"

With a bitter smile after looking at his sister’s gaze, Young Pavilion Master of Xuantian Pavilion clasped his fists, saying: "I beg of you."

"It won’t happen..." Lu Mountain Hermit shook her head, dismissing the offer as if he were begging like a pauper.

She knew the gifts Lin Jing bestowed upon her were worth hundreds of times the assets of Xuantian Pavilion. As an outsider, this was the case, let alone the pet beast Lin Jing gifted his cousin—could its talent and potential be low?

"Two, two Foundation Establishment Pills, plus one of better quality, guaranteeing a seven-tenths chance for foundation establishment, crafted by my grandfather for me," the girl in the long dress looked pleadingly at Lin Lan.

"Sister, please, I really like it..."

"No way..." Lin Lan shook her head, nothing she could say would change that.

The panda pet beast, after activating its emperor-grade bloodline, had its aura dramatically transformed compared to normal pandas, becoming especially cute and adorably foolish. Along the way, it had attracted quite a bit of attention.

"How about this, sister, we raise it together. I’ll cover its food expenses, it remains yours, just let it play with me occasionally," Xuantian Pavilion’s little princess spoke a sentence that almost made Lu Mountain Hermit and Lin Lan spit blood.

Do you have so much money you don’t know where to spend it?

It was long known that Xuantian Pavilion’s disciples were all rich young men and women, and now, it proves true—they had never witnessed such "buying" methods before.
