Chapter 241: Ancestral Land!

"Is this your idea or the Sect Master's idea?" Lin Jing was stunned.

Ouyang Hao shook his head: "Neither, it's the Senior Sister's idea."

"Thinking about it carefully, the Ancient Kingdom was founded on the basis of 'fortune,' which is almost completely contrary to the development path of my Beast Taming Sect."

"Even if my Beast Taming Sect undergoes restructuring within the next hundred years to make human fortune outweigh demon fortune, what about after a few thousand years? Sooner or later, the same situation will arise again!"

"This is also the reason why there are almost no human cultivators with 'demon beast bloodlines' in the Ancient Kingdom, while there are many in Qingzhou; the survival soil is mutually exclusive, which is unfavorable for development."

"Senior Sister feels that if the Beast Taming Sect comes to the freer Qingzhou, backed by the Demon Court, it will definitely have better development and more opportunities."

Lin Jing fell into deep thought, then said: "The problem is that most of the Beast Taming Sect's disciples and Elders have their own families in the Ancient Kingdom; the Beast Taming Sect is not their everything."

"Just like the Beast Taming Sect Elders and disciples who came to Qingzhou this time, most of them are alone."

"But the Beast Taming Sect disciples who remained at the Flower Sect come from various large and small cultivation families in the Desolate Domain. Besides the Beast Taming Sect, they have other relatives in the Desolate Domain. For this group of people, asking them to leave the Ancient Kingdom and head to Qingzhou is almost impossible. After all, once they come here, they might never be able to see their relatives again."

"That's true." Ouyang Hao sighed and said: "This is also one of the reasons why the Sect Master feels it is inappropriate."

"Does Junior Brother have any good ideas?"

Lin Jing shrugged, "You, the Young Sect Master, should struggle with that yourself. I won't participate in major decisions within the sect. When the Ancient Kingdom is safe, I'll stay in the Ancient Kingdom; when Qingzhou is safe under the protection of the Demon Court, I'll stay in Qingzhou. For me personally, I don't mind where I am."

He was not a person from this world, so he didn't have deep feelings for the Ancient Kingdom, nor did he have relatives there. He was completely content with whatever situation he found himself in, so he had no opinion on Senior Sister's view.

Furthermore, if he finally managed to refine the Transformation Pill, perhaps being backed by the Demon Court would be more conducive to his safety than being backed by the Ancient Kingdom.

After all, when he was in the Ancient Kingdom, the strong of the Ancient Kingdom only symbolically protected students of the Academy like him—geniuses of the Ancient Kingdom—out of "legal requirements," to prevent demonic outsiders from invading.

But laws are merely tools for rulers to maintain stability. Even for those great beings who formulate the laws, he, this Longevity Body, could be discarded at any time. The Beast Taming Sect and he were not that important to the Ancient Kingdom.

But if he could reach a cooperation with the Demon Court through the Transformation Pill, then the two sides would be bound by a relationship of interests, which would be much more reliable than national law.

"Alright..." Seeing that Lin Jing had no ideas, Senior Brother Ouyang scratched his head.

…………

A few days later, Que Yu arrived at the Qilin clan's ancestral land ahead of schedule. Between the mountains, outside a huge secret space vortex, a Demon Emperor-realm Qilin with red eyes and yellow scales—

a Fire Qilin—stood in the firmament.

"Greetings, Holy Maiden. I am the Great Elder of the Qilin clan, Lin Ye." The Fire Qilin spoke slowly.

"Elder Lin Ye..." Holy Maiden Xu Qingyao walked out of the flying boat: "Arriving early, I apologize for the disturbance."

"Holy Maiden is too polite..." The Fire Qilin's demon sense swept over the figures sitting throughout the flying boat, saying: "Are these the people who want to borrow the Fire Qilin clan's cultivation blessed land?"

"These people are all my followers, and they have recently been practicing fire spells..." Xu Qingyao nodded.

"Then follow me."

Not long after arriving at the Qilin clan's secret space, the members of Que Yu, including Senior Brother Ouyang, were all arranged by this Qilin Demon Emperor into caves rich in fire-attribute power to cultivate, except for Lin Jing...

"Elder Lin Ye, this follower of mine is a bit special. Unlike the others, his contracted pet beast is a Fire Qilin, currently on the verge of Core Formation, so he wants to borrow the Qilin clan's 'Ancestral Land' to form his core. I wonder if that is possible?"

"Hmm??" The Qilin Demon Emperor looked at Lin Jing, who was the only one left, and said: "A stray Fire Qilin clan member?"

"No, it's a little guy whose ancestors had Qilin bloodlines. My follower cultivated and excavated its ancestral bloodline, evolving it into a Fire Qilin."

"Fine, for the sake of the Holy Maiden, let his pet beast enter the Ancestral Land. However, I advise you not to hold too much hope. A guy like this with only a thin Qilin bloodline will find it very difficult to receive the ancestors' blessings." Demon Emperor Lin Ye spoke indifferently.

Qilin clan Ancestral Land.

It buried the bones of countless Qilin clan ancestors.

It was the unified breakthrough location for Qilin demon beasts.

Breaking through here, if one's talent is excellent, there is a chance to awaken those already dead Qilin clan ancestors to bless the descendant's bloodline!

"Many thanks, Demon Emperor Lin Ye." Lin Jing bowed.

This Fire Qilin Demon Emperor didn't even pay attention to Lin Jing, clearly not taking a human like Lin Jing seriously.

"Release it. If it can awaken a Qilin clan ancestor to bless it, it might be able to inherit some of the Qilin clan's powerful demon arts." Xu Qingyao said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Jing waved his arm lightly, and a Fire Qilin with round eyes, looking somewhat like a wolf and a dog, was summoned out by Lin Jing.

Demon Emperor Lin Ye hadn't taken it seriously at all, but as Long Li appeared in its defensive form, although its appearance wasn't very domineering, the tyrannical Emperor-level flame bloodline fluctuations permeated the air, causing Demon Emperor Lin Ye's pupils to shrink instantly.

"Emperor-level bloodline!!!" It said in surprise: "A thin-blooded Qilin that only had Qilin bloodlines in its ancestors, how could it possibly reach Emperor-level bloodline!!!"

"Woo~" Long Li rolled its eyes at it; Emperor-level bloodline was the least boast-worthy thing about it.

"If they didn't have some skills, they wouldn't—"

"—have become my followers." Xu Qingyao smiled faintly: "Elder Lin Ye had better not underestimate my followers."

Demon Emperor Lin Ye realized, saying: "Apologies. If it is an Emperor-level bloodline, perhaps it really can receive a blessing from one of the ancestors during its breakthrough. If it successfully receives an ancestor's blessing and is willing to acknowledge its ancestors and return to the clan, it will be able to receive vigorous cultivation from the Qilin clan!"

"Then thank you in advance, Elder Lin Ye..." Xu Qingyao said.

Not long after, Long Li entered the deeper Ancestral Land of the Qilin clan to cultivate and break through. As for Lin Jing, because he was human, he was not qualified to enter the Qilin clan's Ancestral Land. However, they were both within the Qilin secret realm, and the distance was not far. Through his contract perception, it was no different from being by Long Li's side; he could feel its state at any time.

"Cultivate well, form your core as soon as possible."

In Lin Jing's mind, he also began to meditate in the cave arranged by the Fire Qilin clan. Whether it is a cultivator or a demon beast forming a core, it cannot be completed in just a few days; it takes at least a month or two, because during the breakthrough process, the Golden Core and Demon Core need time to gestate divine abilities...

As for whether Long Li could gain the recognition of the Qilin clan's ancestors here and receive the inheritance of Qilin demon arts, Lin Jing didn't care. He and Long Li didn't lack these Qilin demon arts; the Flame Emperor's divine abilities were enough. If it weren't for the fact that it was on the way and Senior Sister's suggestion, he wouldn't have prepared to come to this place at all...

He only hoped that Long Li would break through smoothly and not cause any trouble in the Qilin clan's Ancestral Land.

"Next, I'll divert some of my focus to pay attention to the clone side..." ===== CHAPTER 242 =====
