Chapter 50: Guardian Deity of Tiandu

Under the bathing of the Buddha light, Lin Jing and the Pine-Needle Rat felt that they had been "reborn."

At first, Lin Jing and the Pine-Needle Rat were still enjoying it, but slowly, Lin Jing sensed that something was wrong somewhere.

Under the bathing of this Buddha light, his mental power had indeed been extraordinarily strengthened, but in the dark, he always had an indescribable, strange feeling. He always felt that other aspects of himself... had also produced some changes.

However, until Lin Jing opened his eyes, he couldn't say what this strange feeling was.

Outside.

Elder Mo was paying attention to the changes in the squirrel head icon on the stone tablet.

"Don't keep staring at it. He is a Qi Refining cultivator. Even if he can pass the first floor, he needs a long time to adapt and adjust," the sect ancestor roared at Elder Mo.

"Ancestor, shall we make a bet?!" Elder Mo chuckled, like a playful child: "I bet that he will soon pass the first, second, third, fourth, fifth... all the way to the ninth floor in succession!"

The tower-guarding ancestor laughed loudly: "You, are you stupid from cultivation? He is a Qi Refining cultivator, can he withstand the demonic might of the Nascent Soul level?"

"Back then, a group of us demon kings were shivering under its pressure!!!"

"Ancestor, do you dare to bet!" Elder Mo's gambling addiction emerged. On Lin Jing, this longevity body, he finally gambled on a rare beast, and now he trusted Lin Jing's ability very much.

"Bet it is!" Both sides looked at the stone tablet, looked at the reflection of the high tower in the water. Before they even said the stake, "Boom—" the reflection of the Demon-Suppressing Tower in the water seemed to shake a few times, suddenly loosening, as if it would collapse in the next second...

Fortunately, in the end, it didn't collapse completely. However, even so, it made Ancestor Wang Batian and Elder Mo's hearts jump to their throats instantly, giving them a huge fright. Ancestor Wang Batian was even more startled, flying directly from the pool.

Immediately following... Lin Jing's consciousness body returned from the Buddha tower to his physical body, slowly rising.

"Ancestor? Elder? What is wrong with you?" He looked at the terrified ancestor and elder.

"Wha, what happened inside?" Seeing Lin Jing return directly from the first floor, Elder Mo swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked.

Lin Jing said with a pained heart: "Elder, I said it, so much time has passed, the seal of the Demon-Suppressing Tower has indeed loosened!"

"As soon as we went in, we encountered a demon that wanted to escape!"

"What!" Elder Mo and the sect ancestor were shocked.

"Fortunately, the Buddhist Gao Seng in the rumors left a backup plan, sealing a sliver of his own consciousness within the Demon-Suppressing Tower, which successfully suppressed the demon back!"

Elder Mo and the sect ancestor breathed a sigh of relief.

"Unfortunately, the Demon-Suppressing Tower still won't last long. According to what that Gao Seng said, in a few more decades, the effect of the seal might approach zero."

The two changed color again.

"Fortunately, fortunately." Elder Mo then comforted himself: "As long as it is not a sudden situation, it is fine. The Demon-Elimination Division has many capable people. As long as we report to the Demon-Elimination Division in advance, even if the demon breaks the seal at that time, there will naturally be experts to deal with it. Having been sealed for so long, even if it escapes, it must be extremely weak."

"Yes, let the people from the Demon-Elimination Division solve it. Anyway, I won't fight this undying demon," Ancestor Wang Batian shook his head.

"Apart from this, the disciple also learned an uncertain piece of news."

Immediately following, Lin Jing reported the news of the cave heaven treasure to the sect. The sect's Turtle Ancestor and Elder Mo looked at each other and said: "Understood, we will open a sect meeting to discuss it."

"In addition, this Demon-Suppressing Tower seems temporarily unsuitable for training. Let's close it for now."

"You have worked hard. I will send you back first." Elder Mo was afraid that Lin Jing would be frightened, so he sent Lin Jing and the Pine-Needle Rat back first.

However, after sending them away, Turtle Ancestor looked at Elder Mo: "You say, the seal of the Demon-Suppressing Tower loosened as soon as he went in. Is this a bit too coincidental? Could this disciple be some kind of Heavenly Fiend Lone Star body?"

"Absolutely impossible!" Elder Mo said: "This disciple is a Longevity Body, a physique destined to send off generations of ancestors. As a small Qi Refining cultivator, what can he do in the Demon-Suppressing Tower? Being able to report everything that happened inside so calmly already shows he is very capable."

"What, Longevity Body?!" Turtle Ancestor was shocked. Wouldn't that mean that kid could live longer than him?

Danxia Peak.

Lin Jing and the Pine-Needle Rat sat at the entrance of the cave dwelling, breathing deeply, only feeling that it was better to go to such places less in the future.

"Speaking of which, how does it feel?"

He asked the Pine-Needle Rat about the effect of the Buddha light strengthening. Upon hearing this, the Pine-Needle Rat took out one, two, three... The Pine-Needle Rat sacrificed more and more red leaves. In an instant, there were already seventy red leaves flying in mid-air, red leaves filling the sky. Such a scene made Lin Jing gasp.

"Next time you encounter a sword cultivator, you can perform the Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin."

You know, before this, with its Qi Refining seventh-layer cultivation base, it could control at most fourteen flying leaves, but now, its mental power was actually strong enough to control seventy.

Even if there was something wrong with this Buddha light, they accepted it!

On Lin Jing's side, he also felt that condensing illusion path true qi seemed easier; it was that constructing purple true qi became more efficient!

"But if I have to say what is strange..."

He pondered, feeling that whether it was Fahai or the Buddha, the images and Buddhist nature of these Buddhist figures had become clearer in his mind.

"There wouldn't really be something mixed into this Buddha light, would there?" Lin Jing muttered to himself.

"I have to find an expert to give me a physical examination when I have time."

He shook his head, looked at the Pine-Needle Rat, and said: "Speaking of which, do you want to try again..."

"Leap over Tiandu!"

Gengyun Peak.

After Lin Jing and the Pine-Needle Rat's minds were strengthened by the Buddha light, they returned here again.

This time, the Pine-Needle Rat was full of confidence, sacrificed a flying leaf, and rode the leaf upward.

This leap... was completely without the difficulty of the past. It almost soared straight up, passed through the clouds, accompanied by violent pressure, and soon reached the highest point, looking toward Tiandoufeng from high altitude.

Before his eyes, it was wide open.

On Tiandoufeng, stood a divine pine that seemed to have taken root here since the beginning of time.

The trunk of this divine pine was not as rough and tough as ordinary pine trees in the mortal world, but crystal clear, as if carved from the purest green crystal. Inside, faint spiritual light flowed, reflecting the ever-changing immortal scenery around it.

On the surface of the trunk, delicate patterns could occasionally be seen flickering faintly. Those were traces of spiritual power flowing. Each pattern contained ancient and powerful power, as if it were its flowing bloodline.

As the Pine-Needle Rat's gaze swept over, the golden-green branches and leaves that covered most of Tiandoufeng swayed.

Mysterious, noble, sublime. The Pine-Needle Rat stood on the flying leaf, staring blankly at the Tiandu Senior Senior Shen Song. It didn't expect that there was such a pine tree on Tiandoufeng. It had never heard of it and never seen it.

What terrified the Pine-Needle Rat the most was that this divine pine actually suddenly stretched out its branches and rolled toward it. On Tiandoufeng, apart from this divine pine, it seemed there were no other living creatures.

This made the Pine-Needle Rat realize that the guardian deity of the Beast Taming Sect on Tiandoufeng didn't seem to be a demon beast, but a plant that had become a spirit, a pine tree!

Finished! It quickly asked Lin Jing for help. After all, since it was born, it hadn't eaten few pine nuts. Who could have thought that the natural enemy of the sect's guardian deity was actually me? No wonder no Pine-Needle Rat had ever jumped up. The ancestors didn't die unjustly! ===== CHAPTER 51 =====
