Chapter 640

"Even if it is a dilapidated Immortal World, the cultivation environment is indeed much better than the lower realm."

"Thanks to the cultivation environment, has my current strength already surpassed the original body by a lot?"

Looking at the group of tamed beasts that had come to support him, the avatar couldn't help but laugh.

The tamed beasts looked at each other.

Probably?

Although Lin Jing's realm had now reached the fourteenth step of the Dao Seeking realm, it should still be incomparable to the avatar.

The four stages of Dao Seeking—Early, Middle, Late, and Perfection—once Perfection is reached, one can summon the ascension heavenly tribulation and enter the Ascension realm.

During the period when the ascension passage was closed, a portion of the cultivation world liked to use steps to divide the Dao Seeking period.

The early stage corresponds to the first step, Perfection corresponds to the fourth step, and those who have passed the ascension tribulation in the Dao Seeking realm are called the fifth step of the Dao Seeking realm, which is also the normal end of the Dao Seeking realm.

With each of these five steps taken, one's own Dao becomes stronger and more indestructible.

From then on, if one wants to transform again, one can only ascend to become an immortal and use one's own Dao to sense the Heavenly Dao of the Immortal World.

And in the lower realm, Lin Jing certainly did not have this condition.

The Heavenly Dao of the lower realm only allowed cultivation up to the Dao Seeking realm at most.

Therefore, he could only give up the cultivation method of sensing the Heavenly Dao and continue to strengthen and cultivate his own Dao.

Under normal circumstances, restricted by the world's rules, Lin Jing would certainly find it difficult to continue cultivating, but something like the Infinite Immortal Body was an exception.

Over these past few thousand years, Lin Jing successfully took the sixth step and the seventh step in the Dao Seeking realm...

And the way he used to confirm that he had made another breakthrough was by looking at the blood of the contract.

Starting from the sixth step, for every additional step taken, one more drop of contract blood would appear.

By the seventh step, two more drops had already appeared, representing that he could contract two additional tamed beasts.

At this time, even if Lin Jing did not use his Immortal Dao Primordial Spirit to catalyze immortal power and only used pure, ordinary true qi, the quality of his true qi was not inferior to immortal power at all.

And because the original body cultivated the Dao of Contract, the true qi catalyzed by the Beast Taming Art also strengthened the tamed beasts several times more than before.

And this was not the end.

The initial exploration is often the most difficult and time-consuming.

After finding his own direction for cultivation in the lower realm, the foundation Lin Jing laid exploded completely the moment the tamed beasts ascended to the Ancient Immortal World Earth and broke through to the True Immortal realm.

Lin Jing's cultivation, following the ascension of the seven contracted tamed beasts, continued to rise without limit, breaking through seven more realms.

He reached the inconceivable fourteenth step of Dao Seeking, equivalent to having nine whole drops of contract blood more than before.

Of course, because there were no enemies in the lower realm and Lin Jing had no intention of raising new tamed beasts—he could repel all incoming enemies by using his destiny—he did not use a single drop of this contract blood.

"So that's how it is." Hearing the description from the tamed beasts, the avatar smiled.

He is Lin Jing, and Lin Jing is him; therefore, although they were separated in two realms and he lacked the original body's cultivation experience, he instantly understood the original body's thoughts.

"He will not contract new tamed beasts."

"Because what he wants is to fuse every drop of contract blood cultivated thereafter... into one drop, giving birth to the ultimate power of contract!"

"As for what to contract with..."

The avatar was, of course, very clear.

Whatever the Demon Master is coveting, the original body is coveting the same.

However, the rules of the lower realm are quite complete compared to Earth. He was lucky enough to contract a fragment of the Heavenly Dao, but for the original body to do something that even the Demon Master finds difficult, it is probably not that easy.

But it doesn't matter... with him here, once he cultivates to become an Immortal Emperor, he can just go and help the original body then.

"By the way, are you the only ones who came?"

The avatar looked at the seven tamed beasts.

He knows himself best, and he felt that if possible, the original body would definitely send others to ascend to the Ancient Immortal World.

"Bo!!!" Long Li nodded.

The tamed beasts chattered.

Soon, the avatar knew the reason.

It was mainly to send the seven tamed beasts with the most combat power to support him first.

Afterward, Daoist Zhu Yan, Senior Mo Song, and the Demon Emperor would all come over.

However, they would only come after ensuring there was no danger in the Ancient Immortal World.

After all, these people had a gap in combat power compared to the tamed beasts who possessed the Seven Controls of the Heavenly Emperor, and coming early would be of limited help.

"In any case, welcome to Earth, the Ancient Immortal World." After understanding clearly, Lin Jing was incomparably happy.

"For you, it has also been a long time since we last met..."

"It just so happens that I intercepted these Demon race members and obtained some spoils of war; I'll give them to you as gifts."

The avatar chuckled and took out the five-in-one top-grade magic treasure, the Five Elements Beads.

The top-grade magic treasures brought by these five Demon Lords were composed of five high-grade immortal artifacts, with one bead corresponding to each of the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. When the five elements gathered, they could exert the power of a top-grade immortal artifact.

They could be considered the strongest trump card of these people...

But alas, even top-grade immortal artifacts could not withstand the onslaught of Soul Control and the Heavenly Emperor's legion, because for every Immortal General controlled by Soul Control that died in battle, another would immediately take its place.

On Lin Jing's side, there was no consumption; to be precise, it was the stone generals who were sacrificed, and he himself had no consumption.

But on the Demon race's side, every time the five of them used the top-grade immortal artifacts, they would incur a certain burden on themselves. As time passed, with one side weakening and the other strengthening, not to mention that this was only their disadvantage against Soul Control—without even counting the avatar's own combat power—Lin Jing naturally won the victory in the end.

In this battle, a total of twenty-three Immortal Generals were sacrificed; they were all guards of the first level of the Heavenly Emperor's Tomb. Lin Jing could do nothing about this, but having been dead for so long, being able to continue guarding the Heavenly Emperor's Tomb with their remains was a relatively good ending for them.

"Wood Bead, Pine-Needle Mouse, for you."

"Squeak?!" Pine-Needle Mouse was overjoyed.

"Fire Bead, Long Li, for you."

"Bo?!" Long Li's eyes lit up.

"Water Bead, Froggy, for you."

"Croak." The Heavenly Emperor's successor frog was surprised.

"Metal Bead, Mechanical Turtle, for you."

The Mechanical Turtle nodded.

Its current constituent materials were mostly immortal metal, accounting for over 90%. With this Metal Bead, it could strengthen itself once more.

"Earth Bead, Holy Egg, for you."

The Holy Egg scratched its egg-head; was there a share for it too?

"Yes, I leave it to you. Please transform Earth's environment to be like the Pangu Continent, where the land contains holy breath and can automatically suppress the Demon race."

"..." The Holy Egg looked at the sky. Having followed the original body for so many years, it almost forgot that the avatar and the original body had no difference in personality and mind.

It looked like a gift, but in reality, it was labor.

The Ice Soul Gu and Immortal Longevity Crane, who didn't receive gifts, looked at the avatar.

The avatar said: "There are only five Five Elements Beads... Hmm, Ice Soul Gu, Immortal Longevity Crane, you two repair the remains of these five Demon Lords... and I'll give them to you? At any rate, they are five ninth-level Immortal Lords. They will be very strong after being made into puppets. With your two abilities, if you cooperate, you can have five Immortal Lord puppets!"

"It's settled then. Next... let's talk about the dual contract."
