Chapter 644: Successive Possession

"Secret path..."

"Sacrifices..."

Lin Jing was indeed very surprised to hear that there was a smuggling channel connecting the immortal worlds.

But when he learned that the price of opening this secret path actually required living sacrifices, he couldn't help but shake his head.

"Demonic Sect?"

Feeling Lin Jing's calm words, the Xingyu Sect Sect Master was startled.

"No, no!"

"The Xingyu Sect only seeks wealth, not lives!"

"What is sacrificed is only the cultivation of the 'Immortal Travel Art' cultivators. Even if their magic power is drained, they can still live for another hundred years."

"Isn't this very normal?! If you want to gain wealth quickly, you always have to make some sacrifices. Although I have only awakened for a short time, looking at this later generation, there are still many mortals who are willing to sacrifice their own lifespan and health to squeeze their lives to earn money and seek survival. In essence, they are all the same!"

"As long as my Xingyu Sect can let them enjoy their old age and bless their families after they contribute their strength to the sect, it is still worlds apart from those Demonic Sects that eat people without spitting out bones."

"Sounds good." Lin Jing was unmoved. If it were voluntary on both sides, then there would indeed be nothing to say; it would just be a transaction. But forcing people to submit with power, not giving them a choice, and cutting off other paths—even if you say it to the heavens, it is not a good thing.

"Tell me about the secret path, and I won't kill you."

Lin Jing directly sacrificed a Buddha-Demon Bead, bound the old man with immortal locks, and sealed him inside. Afterward, he glanced at Hu Yousong, who had been scared unconscious by the killing intent brought by his arrival, and left the place directly.

"Hehe." Hearing this, the Xingyu Sect Sect Master in the Buddha-Demon Bead was not worried, but instead laughed obscenely.

You are noble, you are righteous!

You are noble, but aren't you still thinking about the secret path?

As long as you want to use the secret path, there must be sacrifices.

Developing the secret path, his strength alone was indeed not enough; it used to be the strength of the entire sect.

If there could be a powerful partner, that would naturally be better. Money can never be earned enough; only when everyone works together can they earn more.

Seeing that Lin Jing was interested in the secret path, he knew this matter could be discussed!

"I can say it, but Fellow Daoist must take a Heavenly Dao Oath!"

Heavenly Dao Oaths, in the eyes of these lower-world cultivators in the Tianyuan World, actually do not have absolute binding force. Therefore, many people prefer to use magic treasures and elixirs to impose shackles when concluding contracts, rather than just a vague oath.

However, the Xingyu Sect Sect Master had a different understanding. As a powerhouse in the Immortal Monarch Realm, he knew that the influence of Heavenly Dao Oaths in the Immortal Realm was particularly serious.

From Qi Refining to Asking Dao is the process of a cultivator cultivating their own Dao, but when they reach the Immortal Realm, it is the process of a cultivator comprehending the Heavenly Dao. They are seekers of the Heavenly Dao and Great Dao. Taking an oath by the Heavenly Dao but violating it—in the Immortal Realm, one definitely won't go far.

Unless one has already cultivated to the Dao Lord Realm and become the Lord of the Heavenly Dao, only then can one not take it seriously.

"Is that so?" Lin Jing said lightly. Unfortunately, the Ice Soul sub-gu's main body was not here, and relying solely on the sub-gu, he couldn't bewitch this person.

"Since you are unwilling to say it, then forget it. Don't blame me for not giving you a chance."

Lin Jing took the Xingyu Sect Sect Master directly to the Heavenly Emperor's Tomb. Along the way, the Xingyu Sect Sect Master was anxious, not knowing what Lin Jing was going to do.

However, he was confident that as long as he didn't want to, Lin Jing would never be able to... ask a single word out of his mouth.

And Lin Jing's choice... was to directly become him, to replace him.

The avatar, who was already in the True Immortal Realm, now had many opportunities for possession. Except for one that had to be used on the Emperor Embryo Mother Stone, the remaining times, keeping them was just keeping them, so it was better to use them.

"You actually dare to possess me———"

When the Xingyu Sect Sect Master discovered Lin Jing's intention, he was somewhat incredulous. Possession... even if he was weak now, this kind of low-probability thing, this person actually dared to gamble on it?

As long as he resisted strongly, let alone Lin Jing succeeding, whether he could save his own life was another matter.

Furthermore, even if the possession was successful, as an Immortal Monarch, deleting some important memories during the possession process was not a difficult method. This person... has he lost his mind?

Doing this kind of... thing where almost no benefits can be seen.

Originally, the Xingyu Sect Sect Master didn't understand the act of possession, but when the weird demonic power invaded his body, the Xingyu Sect Sect Master's face changed.

"Demons... from another immortal world..." Possession is one of the racial talents of this race, far easier than possession by cultivators of other races, and the success rate is a hundred times higher. The terrifying power of possession can even be used as a killing move!

"If it were a few years ago, perhaps it wouldn't work, but now..."

Lin Jing's avatar turned into a demonic shadow. Now, he should already be called... a King-Blood Demon.

…………

Lin Jing was indeed very interested in the secret path. If this secret path could be used, he would have one more way to go to the Immortal World.

During the possession process, Lin Jing easily suppressed the other party's resistance consciousness and learned why he was so eager to walk the secret path again. Although Earth was recovering, resources were still scarce for him, a former Immortal Monarch.

Without top-tier immortal objects, he couldn't restore his power. What was more fatal was that his state was now just a flash in the pan, and he probably wouldn't live long, at most a few decades or a hundred years.

He didn't know what Earth's recovery progress would be like, so he needed to go to a more prosperous immortal world to find resources to restore his power and extend his life to ensure his survival.

"This body is really rotten." The evolution of the bloodline and the gap between the enemy and himself made Lin Jing's possession very smooth this time. This possession, except for Lin Jing gaining cultivation experience from True Immortal to Immortal Monarch Realm, as well as some technique information, didn't have much gain.

The other party's acquired "Void Immortal Body" could only be said to be better than nothing.

But fortunately, the information about the secret path of the Immortal World had all been acquired by Lin Jing.

"Thank you, Senior, for guarding the law. With this secret path, I have the opportunity to go to another immortal world to investigate which alien races invaded the Heavenly Court back then." Lin Jing bowed to the inside of the Heavenly Emperor's Tomb.

"We didn't expect that this Xingyu Sect was a smuggling sect. It was hidden so deep. This secret path is probably not simple either. The four immortal worlds do not communicate with each other. Only an Immortal Emperor can cross worlds. Back then, it was also because there was an Immortal Emperor leading and protecting them that ordinary cultivators on Earth could go to another immortal world. Even so, there were countless casualties on the road, which was extremely dangerous. This secret path could never have been opened by an ordinary Immortal Emperor."

"Your current body is a bit embarrassing. We will continue to guard the law for you, and then possess that Emperor Embryo. If the demons descend during this period, we will help you resist, but it's best not to have any accidents. After all, our power is not much left."

Lin Jing nodded, having exactly that intention. Using the body of the Xingyu Sect Sect Master was really uncomfortable.

In the next instant, he took out the Emperor Embryo Mother Stone and directly activated the power of possession again. Compared to possessing a cultivator who was like a candle in the wind, possessing this five-colored immortal stone, even with his King-Blood Demon power, instantly became much more difficult.

"I wonder, this time, what race will I be reborn as? Human? Beast? Ghost? Only this time, for me, is it a true rebirth... the invincible path of the avatar." ===== CHAPTER 645 =====
