The Ancestral Bird Ancestor descended, prompting Invincible Sect to activate the long-dormant Mountain Protection Array, though everyone knows that such an array is quite limited.
Too powerful an enemy renders it useless, too weak an enemy doesn't require it, and the Ancestral Bird Ancestor clearly belonged to the forr.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Just as the mbers of Invincible Sect watched in horror as the Ancestral Bird Ancestor easily entered their array, a voice echoed in their minds.
"Leave it to ."
Imdiately, a vast Immortal King pressure rose from a certain cave, like the Heavenly Dao descending, falling upon the Ancestral Bird Ancestor.
Boom!
The Ancestral Bird Ancestor, who intended to capture Zhi Qianrou first to dispel the Mind Control on her, suddenly changed his expression.
Immortal King Realm?
This little Invincible Sect... How could it have an Immortal King Realm expert?
No wonder...
He thought, how could the re Immortal Monarch Realm Invincible Sect possibly have soone capable of controlling Zhi Qianrou ntally?
"No, it's the Ninth Layer of the Immortal King Realm."
A mont later, the Ancestral Bird Ancestor felt imnse pressure. His cultivation was at the Sixth Layer of the Immortal King Realm, already considered strong among Immortal Kings, yet he still felt imnse pressure in the face of this aura.
"I wonder which fellow Daoist this may be, could you co out and et?"
He no longer advanced; soone at the Ninth Layer of the Immortal King Realm was surely a renowned figure in the Immortal Realm. He did not understand why the other party would hide in such a small Invincible Sect or why they would control the minds of his clan's genius.
"Co."
Lin Jing did not show himself but invited the Ancestral Bird Ancestor inside. The ancestor's expression remained unchanged, and he was not afraid. Though his cultivation was not as high as this mysterious individual, the Ancestral Bird clan had three Immortal Kings, marking it as a major bird clan, with the strongest at the Ninth Layer of the Immortal King Realm, and close friends with the Immortal Emperor of the Demon Race, the Everlasting Empress.
So be it.
Upon being invited into Lin Jing's cave residence, the Ancestral Bird Ancestor imdiately saw Lin Jing seated on a lotus of Dao, and upon seeing his appearance, his expression noticeably froze.
And then, beside Lin Jing... he saw one, two, three... several Immortal King level demon beasts.
Several Immortal Kings of various forms glared at him from the shadows, nearly causing the Ancestral Bird Ancestor's heart to stop.
Especially after confirming that Lin Jing's face... was identical to that person's, he was utterly stunned.
"Supre of the Lower Realm, Lin Jing?!!"
"When did you co to the Immortal Realm?"
"Weren't you supposed to..."
Wasn't he supposed to be overseeing the lower realm?
"Friend of the Ancestral Bird Clan, we're eting for the first ti," Lin Jing spoke.
"Is there still any doubt about my Celestial Destiny?"
The Ancestral Bird Ancestor fell silent. It was known by all that Lin Jing had obtained the Celestial Destiny, transcending the potential for it. However, seeing that Zhi Qianrou was being assisted by Lin Jing made him quite puzzled, considering Lin Jing was known in various Immortal Realm factions as soone for the Eastern Phoenix Immortal Emperor. Lin Jing's presence in the Immortal Realm was, therefore, highly significant, and even with foresight, it was difficult to deduce his intent.
After all, this involved the Immortal Emperor.
"I wonder why you're keeping Zhi Qianrou? What do you wish for her to do?"
"She is an important genius of our clan..."
"Rest assured, I have no ill intentions. I rely needed a guide when I first arrived in the Immortal Realm," Lin Jing replied.
"Being able to alleviate a friend's worries is truly Zhi Qianrou's honor," the Ancestral Bird Ancestor's attitude shifted, after all, Lin Jing was no ordinary Immortal King.
An ordinary Ninth Layer of the Immortal King Realm could be called Great Perfection.
But an Immortal King of Great Perfection with a Celestial Destiny… in the Immortal Realm, that had another na.
A Quasi-Immortal Emperor.
Soone who, upon fully developing their Celestial Destiny, could very well enter the realm of the Immortal Emperor.
Regardless of whether there was an Immortal Emperor behind Lin Jing, right now Lin Jing himself... was a superpower the Ancestral Bird clan could not afford to offend.
Moreover, Lin Jing's pet beasts had also reached the Immortal King Realm, all with significant cultivation levels. The Ancestral Bird Ancestor could scarcely believe what had happened to Lin Jing over the years, what had transpired.
"I do not wish for my presence in the Immortal Realm to be more widely known," Lin Jing said.
"I swear by the Heavenly Dao that I will not reveal a single bit of information about you," the Ancestral Bird Ancestor imdiately understood Lin Jing's ssage.
"Thank you," Lin Jing nodded and continued, "In fact, you've co at the right ti; I have two matters to inquire about regarding the Ancestral Bird clan."
The Ancestral Bird Ancestor said, "Please, go ahead."
Lin Jing asked, "If not relying on the Celestial Destiny, is there a thod to break through to the Immortal Emperor?"
As a historic great clan, the Ancestral Bird clan might know sothing.
Upon hearing this, the Ancestral Bird Ancestor hesitated and said, "To beco an Immortal Emperor, bearing the Celestial Destiny and fully developing it is the most common thod. All known Immortal Emperors in the Immortal Realm broke through in this way!"
"However, according to records from the Ancestral Bird clan, there was once an Exotic Domain Immortal Emperor who succeeded in breaking through without bearing the Celestial Destiny."
"By what thod?!" Lin Jing curiously inquired.
"Dual cultivation, she rged her Heavenly Dao with an Immortal Emperor using an ancient Secret Technique, sharing half the cultivation and achieving Immortal Emperor status."
"But that Secret Technique has been lost, and with the precedent set by that Immortal Emperor, later Immortal Emperors have been wary of the Yin-Yang Dao."
Lin Jing was speechless for a mont but quickly found solace; this answer was exactly what he had been seeking. Although he could not rely on dual cultivation to advance to Immortal Emperor, it proved that without Celestial Destiny, using other ans could possibly achieve it.
If so, a thought he had earlier might be feasible.
"Alright," Lin Jing nodded and then continued to ask, "I've also heard that the Ancestral Bird clan possesses an exceptional Immortal Artifact capable of deducing the future, known as a clan-suppressing Immortal Artifact..."
The Ancestral Bird Ancestor grew tense, fearing Lin Jing's desire for the artifact.
"And to fully harness its power, relying solely on a single Ancestral Bird is insufficient. Hence, the Ancestral Bird clan maintains a grand deducing array that can manipulate the artifact. I wonder, could this array be shared with ?"
"Of course, I do not expect it for free; I can provide sothing in exchange!"
Currently, Lin Jing held a fragnted Dao treasure, the Great Dao Bell, which also had ti deducing effects, definitely superior to the Ancestral Bird clan's clan-suppressing Immortal Artifact. However, due to his personal limit, Lin Jing could neither perfectly deduce which four Immortal Emperors invaded the Celestial Court back then, nor how to open the Exotic Battlefield.
With his existing power, he simply couldn't fully unleash the ultimate capability of the Great Dao Bell.
Just as the Naless Taoist could only wield the most basic force with a True Immortal's body.
Therefore, if he had the deducing array from the Ancestral Bird clan, by gathering the power of several Pet Beasts, perhaps he could better unlock the deducing power of the Great Dao Bell.
Lin Jing needed it... to complete his path to Immortal Emperor.
