Chapter 513: Living Synthesis

Misty Forest, Divine Tree Space.

An extremely ordinary ancient tree was hidden within the complex sea of forest; inside the ancient tree was yet another independent space.

Inside the space, a sky full of mosquito beasts swarmed around a mosquito woman as she arrived before a pine tree.

"Senior Shen Song, according to the intelligence gathered by the mosquito beasts, the war in the outside world seems to have ended."

"The Heaven-Refining Demon Ancestor is dead, and the three great demon sects that asked the Dao have also been executed."

"Even the Holy Son seems to have returned to Tianyuan."

The mosquito woman's intelligence caused a woman sitting cross-legged not far away to open her eyes and say, "Senior Shen Song, can we emerge into the world now?"

"What's the rush!!" Shen Song said. "The Heaven-Refining Sect is nothing. Not long ago, I sensed another terrifying Demon Clan bloodline descend upon Tianyuan. It is definitely a super-important figure; eight or nine times out of ten, it was summoned by the high-level members of the Heavenly Demon Sect."

"I don't know why she didn't continue to attack Tianyuan, but regardless, let's hide a bit longer. Wait for that brat Lin Jing to take the initiative to find us; we absolutely must not emerge on our own!"

Gu Qianqiu and the mosquito woman looked at each other helplessly. Forget it; anyway, there was no shortage of this bit of time. They would just wait for Lin Jing to take the initiative to seek them out. As long as Lin Jing handled things well, they believed Lin Jing would definitely come looking for them.

However, the few of them underestimated how busy Lin Jing was now. With the assistance of golden spirit rice and other rare items, the Ice Soul Gu's devouring of the Gu God went very smoothly.

For the Ice Soul Gu, the greatest benefit of this devouring was that by devouring the Gu God, it perfectly assimilated the power of the other nine great rare Gus. At the same time, it made the Ice Soul Gu no longer a lower-status bloodline of the Gu God; its own bloodline became the most primordial existence.

Originally, among Lin Jing's three pet beasts, the Ice Soul Gu's bloodline level was the furthest from the Immortal rank, but now, it had instead surpassed Long Li, second only to the Pine Leaf Rat.

Having completed the devouring, Lin Jing let it stay by the Heaven-Refining Demon Ancestor's side at all times to torture the Demon Ancestor and accelerate the maturation of the Dao Seed. It was just unclear when it would be able to bear the Dao Fruit.

"I thought you weren't willing to come back."

Several days later, Lin Jing walked out of the Immortal Flag Space Dao Array, looked at the Mechanical Turtle crawling into Mount Xianlao, and smiled.

"No, that's not the case at all!" The Mechanical Turtle hurriedly denied it, then quickly took out a pile of things and said, "Master, these are the life-extending items I have collected over these many years."

"You have a heart, but I don't need these things now." Lin Jing looked at the life-extending treasures all over the ground and said, "Keep them for your own collection."

"Besides... anyway, there is time now. I have learned many new things in the Source Realm. Do you know about Immortal Source? Next, I will upgrade you a bit and add an Immortal Source core for you."

Lin Jing looked at the Mechanical Turtle, intending to use the immortal arts and immortal arrays he had learned in the Source Realm to carry out a drastic transformation of the Mechanical Turtle.

"Pine Leaf Rat, you come help too!"

At the same time, the advancement of the Pine Leaf Rat's Glazed Immortal Pupils also meant that the various materials for the Mechanical Turtle could also receive an epic-level upgrade.

Apart from the Mechanical Turtle, no one else came to look for Lin Jing. Lin Jing himself was now focused on cultivation and had no heart to meet old acquaintances. With this two-way pursuit, ten years of time in the outside world passed in a flash.

Using ten years of time, Lin Jing added an Immortal Source drive to the Mechanical Turtle, making it more handy in controlling immortal artifacts. However, the most important thing was that during this period, under the unremitting efforts of the Ice Soul Gu, it finally condensed the first Dao Fruit regarding the Heaven-Refining Demon Ancestor's refining Dao spells.

This Dao Fruit was one of the Heaven-Refining Demon Ancestor's core secret techniques: the Art of Living Refining.

It was extremely evil.

This Dao Fruit was naturally sent into the Pine Leaf Rat's mouth. The Pine Leaf Rat frowned and ate this portion of the Heaven-Refining Demon Ancestor's refining Dao experience from the past few thousand years. After eating, it sat cross-legged on the ground and quickly digested it.

Lin Jing and the Ice Soul Gu just watched quietly, waiting for the Pine Leaf Rat to finish digesting. However, this process was still slow. They waited for a long time before the Pine Leaf Rat let out a "Squeak," rubbed its eyes, and got up.

"How is it?"

"Do you feel the change in the Glazed Immortal Pupils?" Lin Jing asked.

"Squeak!" The Pine Leaf Rat shook its head; it didn't feel it. However, having received this refining Dao experience, it could try to use the Glazed Immortal Pupils as a medium to cast spells. It was just unclear... whether it could succeed.

"Good!" Lin Jing took a deep breath. "I've already prepared a pile of test subjects for you."

Having said that, he took out one hundred common big rats that weren't even at the first layer of Qi Refining. The ground full of black-skinned rats made the Pine Leaf Rat fall into deep thought: Why is it rats again!

Can't you change to a different breed of test subject!

It spread its hands, like insects or something.

"Just synthesize them!" Lin Jing urged, unable to wait to see the result. The Pine Leaf Rat sighed and had no choice but to look at these rats gathered together, opening its Glazed Immortal Pupils—

The next instant.

A bizarre scene appeared; what was completely impossible to do before happened at this moment.

One hundred living rats, different individuals, actually began to be slowly swallowed by a bright light under the gaze of the Glazed Immortal Pupils. Immediately after, the squeaking sounds disappeared, and the one hundred rats vanished. Replacing them, a rat-like creature the size of a tiger appeared. Its bizarre body was covered with hundreds of red eyes that kept rotating, which was extremely chilling.

"Holy crap." Lin Jing exclaimed.

【Hundred-Eyed Demon Rat: King-level bloodline demon beast. Within each eye, there is a strand of consciousness, and it has the possibility of becoming a Demon Emperor.】

At the same time, in the Pine Leaf Rat's mind, information about this demon beast, which had never existed on the Tianyuan Continent, also surfaced.

"It succeeded?" Although the process was bizarre and the result was bizarre, the success of the first living synthesis made Lin Jing overjoyed. This was a very huge progress. He couldn't help but grab the Ice Soul Gu and the Pine Leaf Rat and said excitedly, "You two have worked hard. Let's continue the experiment."

Having said that, Lin Jing, wanting to know where the limit of the Glazed Immortal Pupils was now, grabbed another black-skinned rat. Besides that, he also casually took out a pile of lightning spirit ores to surround the little black rat and said, "Come, let's try again to see if living things and dead things can be synthesized."

The Pine Leaf Rat nodded.

Under the illumination of the Glazed Light, very soon, a yellow-skinned rat full of lightning patterns on its body appeared on the ground with a puzzled look. Its cultivation had even reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

"Is this... Pikachu?" Living synthesis allowed Lin Jing to rediscover the joy from when the Pine Leaf Rat had just awakened the Glazed Immortal Pupils divine ability. He only felt that these ten years of effort were not in vain at all. As long as it went smoothly, the Pine Leaf Rat would sooner or later be able to synthesize his Primordial Spirit and Immortal Source together!

By then, he, Lin the Half-Immortal, might not be unable to fight the Heaven-Hating Demon Emperor.

"Come come come, let's try different species again. The insects you wanted are here."

Lin Jing caught another pile of caterpillars and a black-skinned rat, pointing at them to let the Pine Leaf Rat synthesize them. Beside them, the Ice Soul Gu covered its eyes, not daring to look anymore. This Glazed Immortal King must also be a demon cultivator, right?! This divine ability is too brutal; even Dao Fruit arts would have to bow their heads upon seeing it. ===== CHAPTER 514 =====
