The incarnation gave up the opportunity bestowed by the Heavenly Dao, addressing the silver-haired goddess:
"I don’t need you to beco a cauldron, nor do I want you to be my Dao companion. On the contrary, I can help you restore your strength and shape your independent consciousness. All you need to do is guard this Emperor’s tomb for in the future."
After speaking, he disregarded the dumbfounded look from the Frog Empress and sat down directly.
"Hey, what are you doing?" The Frog Empress was puzzled.
Lin Jing said, "I’m gambling. If I lose, perhaps it will be difficult to beco an Immortal Emperor, but if I win, there is hope for to exceed the Immortal Emperor, possessing the potential of a Taoist Master."
"In reality, though... the Immortal Emperor Realm doesn’t hold much significance for , so even if I lose, there’s nothing much to regret."
A gambler?
The Frog Empress could not understand, but having seen many who mouth off about gambling, they rarely et a good end.
Even the Celestial Court prohibits Immortals from gambling; there are no facilities like casinos, fearing that Immortal Soldiers and Generals will develop bad habits.
"This silver-haired goddess was sent as a gift from the Heavenly Dao. If I reject her now, I’m afraid I’ll face heavenly punishnt next."
After saying this, Lin Jing stood up in contemplation and said, "I should still head to the outside world, after all, who knows what might happen next."
Generally speaking, breaking such a minor vow, even if breached, would only result in severe bad luck romantically, losing all prospects with won, which is already a significant heavenly punishnt.
However, Lin Jing always felt he was extraordinary, especially since his true body had rged with Earth’s celestial destiny, binding him more closely with the Heavenly Dao than ordinary cultivators.
Normally, if an ordinary person insults the boss of a big company, at worst they’ll receive a mild reprimand; more likely, the boss won’t even bother responding.
But if... a direct employee insults the boss, they might... get fired.
The relationship between a Celestial Destiny Man and the Heavenly Dao is akin to this, which is why the incarnation was so conflicted earlier.
The Heavenly Dao sent the Immortal King wife to comfort him as a loyal employee, ensuring he doesn’t stray off path. Yet if he insists on contracting fragnts of Heavenly Dao rules, this situation might provoke a more severe backlash from the Heavenly Dao.
......
Three days after the vow.
Lin Jing remained seated atop Huang Mountain, awaiting the so-called heavenly punishnt.
Boom.
A massive vortex of tribulation clouds gathered, and gazing at the faint white thunder tribulation in the sky, the incarnation murmured.
"A celestial tribulation?"
"Just a celestial tribulation?"
Lin Jing was slightly disappointed.
The power of tribulation lightning is indeed part of the Heavenly Dao’s forces; however, it is the most commonplace and scattered power that even ordinary cultivators can encounter.
Contracting a life ford by lightning can’t be deed entirely aningless, but it holds little weight even if it’s derived from the power of tribulation lightning.
"So be it, bring it on." Lin Jing allowed the lightning to strike him, his flesh subtly aching, yet the impact did not threaten his life, nor did it cause any grave injuries, leading him to sigh—was the vow... just made by a childhood friend?
Next ti... maybe try a more severe oath.
For instance...
Suddenly, Lin Jing’s expression stiffened—not an ordinary celestial tribulation...!
He suddenly sensed a force of rules, an inexplicable force of rules.
This force seed intent on extracting so power from him.
However, monts later, this contractual power from violating the Heavenly Dao failed to locate the so-called power, seemingly becoming... lost within his body.
"Earthly Heavenly Dao, attempting to retrieve my celestial destiny."
Lin Jing indeed considered this possibility, worrying whether it might affect his true body.
The Celestial Destiny Man, as an employee of the Heavenly Dao, breached the Heavenly Dao, even if the opposite party retrieves the celestial destiny... it’s plausible.
Nonetheless, the premise is that the celestial destiny resides on Earth too.
Yet presently, the celestial destiny is with his true body, which is in the Cultivation Realm. The current Heavenly Dao of the Ancient Immortal Realm cannot reach the lower realm.
Thus, this attempt to extract the celestial destiny from the incarnation failed.
This indeed was a severe heavenly punishnt, but unfortunately, the damaged Earthly Heavenly Dao encountered Lin Jing with a body full of bugs.
"I can’t be blad for this, haha."
Lin Jing first sealed himself, transforming into a "leak-free body," a state wherein external Spiritual Qi couldn’t enter him, and his internal power couldn’t leak out.
The contractual rule power attempting to strip celestial destiny naturally beca trapped within his body.
"This power feels familiar."
Lin Jing discovered the force attempting to remove the celestial destiny was akin in essence to the celestial destiny stripping technique imparted by the Emperor’s servant. It seed the creator of this technique might initially have been akin to a Celestial Destiny Man.
Later, due to unknown reasons, the celestial destiny was reclaid by the Heavenly Dao.
And he, during this reclamation process, developed and established the divine techniques to strip celestial destiny from others.
Of course, presently, this isn’t Lin Jing’s primary concern; he has little interest in thods for stripping celestial destiny. What he cares about is this rule power representing the contractual link with the Heavenly Dao.
This force connected him with the Heavenly Dao, executing the backlash.
"Beast Taming Technique."
"Soul Taming."
During the final possession within the womb, the incarnation confird this Beast Taming body would be his ultimate vessel, since it was the most compatible with his true body.
Post-integration, it leads to a strengthening, where the whole exceeds the parts in synergy.
Thus, the Celestial Demon Scripture most compatible with demonic bloodlines was abandoned early. In the womb, the best place for reformation, he shifted to the Beast Taming Technique.
Right now, Lin Jing utilized the Beast Taming Technique along with Soul Taming’s dual powers to attempt capturing the contractual power of Heavenly Dao. Lin Jing realized this contractual force did not fall within the contractual domain of Beast Taming Power.
He recognized this; after all, Beast Taming Technique wasn’t initially able to contract everything. It underwent nurous refinents to evolve from contracting only demon beasts to being capable of contracting chanisms, spirit monsters...
Currently, it’s rely a matter of adjusting and refining the Beast Taming Technique again according to contractual rule fragnts, although he does not possess the comprehensive enlightennt of his true body. His focused enlightennt regarding Beast Taming may indeed surpass that of his true self now with a new body.
"Success or failure, relying solely on this attempt."
......
Simultaneously.
Immortal Realm.
A group of Immortal Emperors remained powerless against the Celestial Demon Sect situated within the "Celestial Dao Treasure."
The Demon Lord already anticipated interference from other Immortal Emperors on diverting Spiritual Qi to Earth.
Hence, he recalled all demon clans, sealed off the sect, utilizing the Celestial Dao Treasure to isolate the entire sect, rendering it difficult to breach even by fellow Immortal Emperors.
"The Demon Lord grows increasingly adept with the Celestial Dao Treasure; he can achieve this already."
"Donghuang, what shall we do? If this continues, might the Ancient Immortal Realm fall into demon hands?"
Donghuang Immortal Emperor also wore a solemn expression: "The Ancient Immortal Realm indeed holds my last resort, but its growing pace may not match the Demon Lord’s enhancent of Earth using the Celestial Dao Treasure. Before the Ancient Immortal Realm can accommodate Immortal Monarchs, my last resort... may struggle against the demonic Immortal Monarch Realm Nine Layer Heaven Demon Monarchs. We must halt the demons here; otherwise, the consequences are unimaginable."
He sighed, the ti left for Lin Jing... for the incarnation was still too short, even with Immortal Emperor potential, surpassing a quasi-Immortal King within re years is challenging, let alone facing multiple enemies of quasi-Immortal King Realm.
