Chapter 108: Executioner Lin Jing

~9 min read 1,601 words

Inside the academy, the news that Lin Jing wanted to establish the Dragon Palace organization was also spreading.

Outside a cave dwelling, the cultivator with a third eye looked at the intelligence letter in his hand and smiled after burning it to ashes.

"The freshmen now are truly more arrogant than the last. I remember I personally invited this Lin Jing to join the 'Pupil Alliance.' It’s one thing that he didn't choose to join, but he actually established an organization himself."

"Ascending Dragon Elixir? A Qi Refining cultivator from a third-rate sect actually playing at forming cliques. One year, two years? No, probably a few months, and this so-called Dragon Palace will disband."

A thin youth dressed as a scholar walked out from behind him and said: "The initiators of several organizations in the academy are all Foundation Establishment cultivators on the Heaven’s Pride List like you. Even if his talent is good, he is too impatient. With insufficient strength and reputation, he will probably encounter trouble soon. For someone like him, defecting to some large forces is the optimal choice."

"Perhaps it is because he is anxious about his sect being sealed and is eager to win over descendants of other sects. If the Beast Taming Sect has many human allies, human luck will also be tilted." Liu Yu opened his mouth: "But this Ascending Dragon Elixir, if it is really as powerful as the rumors say, with his strength and background, he can't keep it. After all, even if I heard it, I would be extremely moved."

"Although I feel that it is somewhat unrealistic to be able to cultivate a dragon-race King-blood demon pet by relying on the Hidden Dragon Secret Technique and an elixir, those few guys won't care about that much. They will probably find a way to get their hands on the elixir formula..."

On the other side, outside Lin Jing’s cave dwelling, visitors were endless.

The publicity effect of the Ascending Dragon Elixir was too good, beyond imagination. Many people came to inquire, which affected his alchemy.

Over the past few days, many freshmen had pre-ordered elixirs, and there were also some senior students who were not doing well.

This was all thanks to Xu Zhi’s publicity.

"After Wang Xiao drew with the dragon carp, he himself also took the Ascending Dragon Elixir, seemingly intending to cultivate a dragon pet!"

"The Divine Body is originally an invincible path; having more dragon pets means more paths!"

"Even the Divine Body recognizes it, what are you waiting for? In the path of immortal cultivation, one step slow means every step slow!"

And Wang Xiao seemed to have left Hidden Dragon City recently. Although Xu Zhi didn't spread rumors, there were many people talking about it, and rumors arose, even appearing the rumor that he was scared to pee by a dragon carp. Even so, he had never appeared. Xu Zhi guessed that he should have returned to the Wang family to look for a demon beast with a powerful bloodline.

"Is Lin Jing there?"

On this day, another person visited.

"Who are you?" Lin Jing walked out of the cave dwelling and looked at the black-robed youth with great pressure in front of him.

The other party’s cultivation was extraordinary, and there was a noble aura between his brows. Lin Jing vaguely perceived that this person probably had the cultivation of the perfect Foundation Establishment stage.

"My name is Chu Ren. Are you selling the elixir formula for the Ascending Dragon Elixir?" The black-robed youth asked.

"Only selling elixirs, and prioritizing selling to those who are about to join 'Dragon Palace.' Not selling the elixir formula." Lin Jing shook his head.

The black-robed youth continued: "You set the price. It won't disappoint you."

"The Ascending Dragon Elixir uses unique materials from the Beast Taming Sect. Even if I sell the elixir formula, you won't be able to refine it yourself." Lin Jing said.

Chu Ren frowned: "Is there really no room for negotiation? Don't you know me?"

"Chu family of the Ancient Domain, ninety-eighth on the Heaven’s Pride List, Chu Ren, perfect Foundation Establishment stage. You count for a hammer. My brother said he won't sell, so he won't sell." Just at this time, another figure landed outside the cave dwelling. The person who came was also dressed in black, looking at Chu Ren with a warning.

"It’s you." Chu Ren saw Gao Sheng and curled his lips.

"Think about it again, your Excellency." He finally looked at Lin Jing and then left.

After Chu Ren left, Lin Jing looked at Gao Sheng: "Does Brother Gao know this person?"

Gao Sheng snorted and said: "I know him. Initially, I was a playboy just like him, with an extraordinary background. However, his talent is better than mine, and he possesses an innate special constitution.

He should have taken a fancy to the Ascending Dragon Elixir and felt that the Beast Taming Sect you came from was a small sect, relatively easy to bully, with no one to back you up, so he intended to force a buy and sell.

We did this kind of thing a lot back then. Of course, I am no longer a playboy now and have turned over a new leaf. Brother Lin, don't worry. With me here, he won't be able to succeed. And in the academy, he wouldn't dare to mess around."

Lin Jing shook his head and said: "There really is such a person. It doesn't matter. I was already mentally prepared when I sold the mechanism bamboo spears back then. However, it seems now that the mechanism bamboo spears didn't attract most people, but this Ascending Dragon Elixir is different."

"Indeed." Gao Sheng nodded and said: "The Chu family raises a dragon-blood demon king, and that dragon-blood demon king reproduces extremely frequently, having many dragon cubs. I think Chu Ren took a fancy to the feature that the Ascending Dragon Elixir can gestate a King-level bloodline. Compared to the mechanism bamboo spears, this elixir is much more valuable."

"In short, let’s ignore him for now. I have already handled the matter you entrusted to me."

Gao Sheng laughed and said: "I used the connections in my family. You have to thank me well."

Lin Jing’s heart stirred and said: "Handled?"

"Hmm. In this Hidden Dragon City, there is actually an immortal prison that detains magic cultivators, which is controlled by the Demon Suppression Division."

"I have already arranged the connections to let you serve as an executioner for heinous death-row prisoners for a period of time."

"In Hidden Dragon City?" Lin Jing was slightly surprised: "Hidden Dragon City has many powerful figures from the academy sitting in town. Are there still magic cultivators appearing here?"

Gao Sheng explained: "No, these magic cultivators are all escorted from all over the ancient kingdom."

"The Tianyuan Ancient Kingdom was founded on luck. These magic cultivators who harm one side damage the luck of the ancient kingdom."

"But at the same time, beheading them will also enhance the national luck."

"However, where to behead these magic cultivators is also very particular about Feng Shui. Hidden Dragon City is a place where luck gathers. Beheading and executing magic cultivators here will have many benefits for the academy geniuses practicing here."

"So that’s how it is." Lin Jing understood: "Then when can I take office?"

The Demon Suppression Division’s immortal prison in Hidden Dragon City is located deep underground.

Gao Sheng led Lin Jing through heavy checkpoints and arrived before an underground prison gate. Outside the gate, a demon suppressor with heavy killing intent was already waiting early.

"Young Master Gao, is this the Young Master Lin you mentioned?" The demon suppressor with killing intent all over his body stared at Lin Jing expressionlessly.

"Yes... Uncle Zhang, I’ll leave my brother to you." Gao Sheng smiled.

"It’s all a small matter." After the Zhang-surnamed demon suppressor finished speaking, he looked at Lin Jing and said: "Young Master Lin, I see that you are only at the Qi Refining cultivation, and the evil intent in the immortal prison is extremely heavy. The prisoners sent here are at least at the 'Foundation Establishment cultivation' and have countless human lives on their hands. Before you execute them, do you want to practice a spell to calm your mind and stabilize your spirit first?"

"Otherwise, I’m worried that after a long time, Young Master Lin might be affected by this place, just like me back then, feeling uncomfortable if I didn't kill someone for a day."

"I told him about this." Gao Sheng said seriously: "Brother Lin, just practice some basic small spells like the 'Cleansing Heart Formula.' There is a collection here. Let Uncle Zhang take you to choose one later. These spells are required for cultivators working here..."

The Zhang-surnamed demon suppressor said: "That’s right. Now I practice the 'Seven Kill Divine Sword' to transform killing intent. However, since Young Master Lin doesn't intend to be here for a long time, just practice some that are easier to get started with."

"Thank you." Lin Jing nodded. Although he had prepared elixirs, having more preparation was always good.

Suddenly, Lin Jing thought of something and asked: "May I ask if there are any Buddhist spells here?"

He thought that he seemed to have been enlightened by a powerful Buddhist figure from the Demon Suppression Division, and practicing Buddhist methods would yield twice the result with half the effort. He knew that his cultivation talent was not high, so to get started quickly, he should choose simple ones.
