Vol 5 Chapter 43: Demon Sect's Wanted Order
["Mo Yu, the inheritor of Demon Emperor Tianchou, is actually a spy planted by the Cultivation Alliance and Origin Realm spirits within the Heavenly Demon Sect. By the authority of the Sacred Son, I hereby issue a wanted order - any encounter with this person's Primordial Spirit must result in imdiate annihilation!!!"]
["All Heavenly Demon Sect mbers must act imdiately! Whatever you're currently doing, cease at once and begin searching for this escaped Primordial Spirit!!!"]
["This person's Primordial Spirit contains the essence of demonic bloodline. Whoever kills them and extracts this bloodline essence will receive my personal guarantee as Sacred Son to undergo demonic blood transformation and beco a true demon!!!"]
At this mont, all Heavenly Demon Sect mbers across the Origin Realm received this shocking ssage. None could believe that the seemingly invincible inheritor of Demon Emperor Tianchou who had just seized the Origin Source was actually an impostor spy!!!
"Primordial Spirit?"
So demonic geniuses' eyes glead with understanding - clearly Sacred Son Sheng Kun had already battled Mo Yu and severely wounded them, leaving only a fleeing Primordial Spirit.
While few would dare pursue Mo Yu at full strength, hunting down a damaged Primordial Spirit was an entirely different matter.
anwhile...
With assistance from the Ice Soul Gu and Spell Elental, Mo Yu's Primordial Spirit had teleported to an unknown location where the Ice Soul Gu now reactivated its mories.
"What happened? Sacred Son Sheng Kun just lent us precious Origin Sources and immortal artifacts, yet suddenly saw through our disguise within monts!!!"
Lin Jing realized the Mo Yu identity was now useless. He analyzed carefully but found no flaws in their cover - they'd even cultivated the secret Yin-Yang Heavenly Demon technique Sheng Kun gifted them, permanently locking the avatar onto the demonic path.
"No idea," said the Ice Soul Gu. "Regardless, these years as spies weren't wasted - we actually profited. So what if we're exposed?"
It gleefully examined its masterpiece... the temporarily borrowed immortal artifact now permanently in their possession.
"Could Demon Emperor Tianchou have survived and returned to the Heavenly Demon Realm, exposing us?" murmured the little mushroom.
"Enough speculation. Let's reunite with the main body," Lin Jing sighed. Plans had changed - while they hadn't achieved the original goal of succeeding Sheng Kun to command the Origin Realm's Heavenly Demon Sect, the results weren't bad.
Precious Origin Sources... ti-path immortal artifacts... even a sealed Limitless Immortal Physique in their storage.
"Where is this place... seems safe enough." The Primordial Spirit surveyed its surroundings.
As Sheng Kun predicted, the avatar was severely wounded with less than 10% combat power remaining. However, with the Ice Soul Gu and Spell Elental's assistance, random nobodies still couldn't threaten them.
Still, the avatar's Primordial Spirit urgently needed a safe location to seize a new body.
After mory restoration, taking over the Limitless Immortal Physique was impossible - she was the Cultivation Alliance Vice-Leader's disciple. Since Lin Jing wasn't truly demonic, possessing her would an angering both the Heavenly Demon Realm and Cultivation Alliance simultaneously.
In that scenario, no realm across existence would shelter Lin Jing - he'd beco an enemy of all worlds.
......
Nether King.
At the boundary between life and death, Lin Jing's main body hovered in ditation, enveloped by opposing life and death energies. For five years, he'd studied Lady Nethersoil's signature technique - "Nether Domain".
When activated, this domain allowed Lady Nethersoil to perceive the "thread of life and death" connecting all living beings within range. This death thread didn't represent an entire lifespan - within the domain's bounds, she could arbitrarily sever it to deliver judgnt.
When pressed by the Ice Soul Gu for thods to cultivate death essence, Lady Nethersoil had no choice but to teach this technique.
Mastering Nether Domain ant comprehending the Dao of Death. Though she taught it, Lady Nethersoil never believed Lin Jing could succeed.
"Your death energy originates from an incomplete rare beast's death essence, while your life energy has evolved to immortal physique level. I suggest simply reforging your Primordial Spirit rather than pursuing the Life-Death Primordial Spirit path."
"Developing your life energy to its peak would be far easier."
"Stubbornly pursuing perfection will only waste countless years!"
"Do I seem lacking in ti?" Lin Jing's simple reply preceded five years of contemplation. Unknown to Lady Nethersoil, mastering Nether Domain alone would indeed have been difficult.
But Lin Jing possessed the Bodhi Tree. Especially now that the Pine Leaf Mouse could perform secondary synthesis, dramatically enhancing synthesized items' quality.
Moreover, with immortal energy fueling the process, synthesis proceeded astonishingly fast as long as energy supplies lasted.
Initially, Lin Jing considered having his main body mimic the avatar - freeloading from the Cultivation Alliance while coaxing investnts from Young Alliance Master Li Tianyi. But after becoming Heaven-Earth Sect's sect master, he discovered these spirit creatures were equally wealthy.
Take Lady Nethersoil - though never actively competing for Origin Sources, countless transactions with various factions ant her immortal energy reserves rivaled Li Tianyi's.
By helping these spirits reproduce offspring, the Pine Leaf Mouse and Lin Jing achieved energy independence, eliminating any need to loiter around Xianlin City before Li Tianyi.
"After five years of study, this Nether Domain finally takes shape." Lin Jing licked his lips. With massive Bodhi leaf assistance, he'd mastered one of Lady Nethersoil's signature techniques.
However, post-mastery, Lin Jing realized Nether Domain wasn't as invincible as imagined. Against beings with sufficiently "hard fates", their death threads couldn't be easily severed - making it more of a bullying technique against weaker opponents.
Fortunately, mastering Nether Domain and fusing with the Death Gu genuinely balanced Lin Jing's Life-Death Primordial Spirit, eliminating previous activation difficulties.
This marked Lin Jing's life-death energies reaching new heights, allowing easier control of the immortal ox corpse for prolonged battles. His main body now preliminarily qualified to challenge the Four Heavenly Kings.
Only one regret remained... the avatar's unsatisfactory progress.
"Ti to retrieve the avatar. With ten years remaining until the Millennium War, we must find a suitable immortal physique for possession."
Yet why would the teor Spirit Beast attack Sheng Kun now? Did it not fear mutual destruction allowing the Sea Spirit Beast to profit? Unless... the Sea Spirit Beast planned to move early as well?
Lin Jing's gaze intensified toward Xianlin City. If so...
Perfect! He needed to hurry and intervene!
