Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 644 The Tenth Son of the Heavenly Demon

The Immortal Realm, a land of demons, is located far from Earth.

Accompanied by three beams of demonic light, dwarfs with a pair of dark red bull horns, but only three or four feet tall, descended before an altar.

"Meet the Supreme Elder."

The three demon cultivators, two men and one woman, bowed to the old man on the altar.

The Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect and the Demon Master of the Demon Clan looked at the three of them and slowly said, "The three of you are the most outstanding among this generation of demon talents."

"Not only are they all born with royal blood, but they have also successfully possessed the bodies of ancient barbarian demons. They possess the cultivation of true immortals, yet their physical strength can rival that of immortal lords."

"As expected, the Nine Heavenly Demons will soon become the Ten Heavenly Demons. However, who among you will ultimately receive the honor of being the tenth will depend on your performance in the upcoming mission."

"We will definitely complete the mission," the three demon princes in their savage forms said.

"Elder, do you want us to descend to the mortal realm and kill Lin Jing?" the female demon asked, looking up.

"Not so." The Demon Master shook his head: "That Lin Jing is blessed with a destiny and also controls the power of the Holy Race. When you go down to the lower realm, your power will be severely suppressed, and you will be no match for him."

"The matters of the lower realm are not urgent."

Do you know where he received his destiny?

"The ancient immortal realm?"

"Yes, the Ancient Immortal Realm has been revived and can now support True Immortals. His destiny was obtained from the Ancient Immortal Realm, and this Ancient Immortal Realm also has a certain connection with my Demon Clan."

"Legend has it that our Demon Ancestor once fought a battle with the Heavenly Emperor of the Ancient Immortal Realm. He took the Demon Clan's clan-protecting artifact with him. Although he was ultimately defeated, the Heavenly Emperor could not completely erase his existence. He could only seal his immortal remains and our clan-protecting artifact in the Ancient Immortal Realm to prevent the power within the Ancestor's remains and the clan-protecting artifact from reviving..."

"And your task is to investigate the remains of our clan's ancestor and where the clan's protective magic artifact he took with him is sealed."

"The outcome of your three efforts will determine which of you will become one of the Ten Heavenly Demons!"

The Demon Master spoke up: "Of course, this task, though not as difficult as killing Lin Jing in the lower realm, is by no means easy. As a person of the ancient immortal realm bloodline, the Eastern Emperor of the East Glory obtained Lin Jing's destiny through his schemes."

"He knows far more about the Ancient Immortal Realm than my Demon Clan does. My Demon Clan doesn't know when the Ancient Immortal Realm will revive or when it will conceive its destiny, but he knows it all perfectly well."

"Therefore, in order to prevent our demon race from coveting the Ancient Immortal Realm, he will definitely make arrangements in the Ancient Immortal Realm in advance to block us."

"But don't worry, there is only one destiny, and only one chosen one. The progress of the ancient immortal realm has now been disrupted by His Majesty the Demon Lord. Your existence will be like a surprise force, and the opponent... may not be able to withstand it."

"Elder, I've heard that the four Immortal Realms are not directly connected. Only the Immortal Emperor can cross between Immortal Realms. The rest... can only enter another Immortal Realm through the lower realms. In that case, will we encounter that chosen one?" the Demon Prince asked.

"There's no need to worry about that. His Majesty the Demon Lord has used the Heavenly Treasure to open a passage directly from the Demon Realm to the Ancient Immortal Realm Earth. With this passage, you can go directly there without being rejected by the other Ancient Immortal Realm."

"Compared to you who have interdimensional passages, immortals from other forces in the Immortal Realm who want to go to the Ancient Immortal Realm can only take the path of descending to the lower realm. This path is much more difficult than yours, and they will be regarded as intruders by the Heavenly Dao rules. Their success rate is not high, and even if they manage to get through, the suppression they will suffer will be much greater than yours."

"When an immortal descends to the mortal realm, he will be suppressed once. The stronger he is, the greater the suppression will be. Moreover, if he crosses realms consecutively, he will be rejected twice. Even if he is a Celestial Lord, he will not be able to exert the strength of an immortal. Furthermore, as time goes by and the number of times he makes his move increases, the condition of the cultivator who descends to the mortal realm and crosses realms will become worse and worse, and he will eventually be devoured by the Heavenly Dao and die."

"In other words, unless that chosen one stops guarding the lower realm and goes to the Ancient Immortal Realm to intercept you, you should be invincible in the Ancient Immortal Realm."

"But if that chosen one goes to the Ancient Immortal Realm, then the lower realm will not be a place he can set foot in at will." The three demonic children nodded. Although they were brothers and sisters, it seemed that they were also competitors in this trip to the Ancient Immortal Realm.

The three demon princes have begun to consider how to investigate the matter of the demon progenitor.

"My children, one day from now, I will send you to the Ancient Immortal Realm. I hope you will not disappoint His Majesty and the entire Demon Clan, and bring back the remains of our ancestor and the clan's protective demonic artifact."

…………

The ancient immortal realm.

With the protection of the emperors and concubines, Lin Jing successfully possessed the Five-Colored Immortal Stone. However, possession was only the beginning; the Imperial Embryo Mother Stone still needed to reappear to nurture his new body.

Lin Jing is now essentially possessing an unformed embryo.

Fortunately, the creature nurtured by the five-colored immortal stone was a naturally born immortal, an innate immortal. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had the time to cultivate from the Qi Refining Realm back to the True Immortal Realm; he would only need to spend time adapting to his new physical body.

Time passed slowly, and the emperor and his concubines grew increasingly anxious.

Hopefully, the forest can break through the stone soon.

They were worried that the demon race might suddenly descend upon the ancient immortal realm.

Although they still retain some power, they have all experienced the decline of spiritual energy and are already in a broken state. With each additional attack, they are closer to completely dissipating.

Therefore, they are unwilling to take action themselves unless absolutely necessary, which is why they want to train Lin Jing and the Heavenly Emperor Frog as tomb guardians.

"This Imperial Mother Stone is truly cruel."

"It is said to be a celestial embryo that absorbed the essence of heaven and earth, nurturing the potential of a Celestial Emperor. It is one of the formidable rivals of all the powerful figures of its time who aspire to become emperors. When the Celestial Realm was prosperous, it did not yet sense anything..."

"But Earth, which has just recovered to a minor level of the Immortal Realm, and whose spiritual energy has just become abundant, is showing signs of decline again because of this stone!"

"I don't know when it will stop. If this continues, Earth, which is just able to support a fairyland, will probably decline to the point where it can no longer support a fairyland."

The emperor and his concubines were abuzz with discussion.

What was said came true. Because the Imperial Embryo Stone absorbed too much of the essence of heaven and earth, the Earth, which had just been restored to a certain level of immortality by the demon race using the supreme treasure of the heavenly way, declined again.

It became a place that could no longer contain a fairyland.

at the same time.

Three demonic children, using the ancient immortal passage opened by the Demon Lord, arrived directly at Earth. But as soon as they got close, their expressions changed. Earth, with its spiritual energy depleted, was like a starving ghost that hadn't eaten for countless years. Their arrival was as if Earth's Heavenly Dao had discovered some great tonic. At an extremely fast speed, their cultivation levels were suppressed by the Heavenly Dao of the ancient immortal realm, causing them to fall back to the immortal realm, and this was happening at an alarming rate.

They wanted to escape Earth, but it was too late; they could hardly resist.

Before long, their pitiful cries turned them into withered, emaciated old men.
