Chapter 721: Revisiting Daluo Temple

During his trip to the extraterritorial land, Lin Jin had read many immortal books. Among them included cultivation methods for monsters. He had copied quite a few of them and refined them himself. He took them out and gave them to Shang’er, Tiger Taoist, and Jin Chi.

“Have all the monsters of Dark Wind Cave head to Grassy Continent to investigate the Beast Deity Cult’s tracks,” Lin Jin ordered.

He wouldn’t just sit and wait for the enemy to come and attack him. He preferred taking the initiative. He wouldn’t do it if he wasn’t strong enough, but he was, in fact, strong enough.

He wanted the Beast Deity Cult’s tracks and base found so he could destroy them.

Mainly that black fog.

This thing that could block off the immortal devouring beast’s detection must either be destroyed or robbed over for his use. Otherwise, who knows how many more immortals the Beast Deity Cult could send?

He had done what he could. He need not worry about Jade Dragon anymore as the Grassy Continent coalition wouldn’t dare to invade them now that he had returned. They might not even have the forces to accomplish it either as the loss of a hundred thousand soldiers wasn’t something they could easily recover from.

In addition, with Lin Jin’s return, Heavenly Spiral would further support Jade Dragon now. Lin Jin didn’t have to inform Heavenly Spiral about this because the emperor would be sure to see it through.

Shang’er began cultivating the new methods. With the precious materials Lin Jin brought back from the extraterritorial land together with the Body-Recast Psyche-Refining Needle, she should be able to evolve in two days.

And two days was enough for Lin Jin and Xiao Huo to recuperate.

The next day, monster energy was overflowing from the hall, even shooting up into the sky.

Shang’er had advanced to Rank 6.

With Lin Jin’s current abilities, he only needed one point of a finger to promote average Rank 3 beasts to Rank 4. A promotion of Rank 4 to Rank 5 wasn’t difficult either if the timing was right. With the Psyche-Refining Needle, it would take only moments.

Advancement to Rank 6 was much more difficult and Lin Jin required suitable timing for this feat. For Goldy’s case, there was the Sky Furnace, while for Shang’er, she could achieve it because of her strong cultivation background. With these factors to assist, the museum could provide a suitable evolution method.

However, things were different for a Rank 6 to Rank 7 promotion.

Such a feat was difficult even with Lin Jin’s current caliber. Xiao Huo only managed to evolve because the Storm Beast Cave managed to change his constitution and give him that opportunity.

Hence, advancing to Rank 6 was the limit for Shang’er for now.

Her next evolution might take another few years, decades, or even centuries unless she came across a shocking opportunity as Xiao Huo had. It was either that or baby steps with little to no chance of attaining a shortcut.

Just then, spies who went to investigate in Grassy Continent returned with news.

“Daluo Temple?” Lin Jin’s expression faltered upon hearing the report.

He didn’t expect the spies to investigate Daluo Temple as well, but according to the report, Daluo Temple had been surrounded by black clouds since two days ago and no one could enter the temple even now.

As the black clouds’ traits were too obvious, the spies immediately conveyed the news back.

Lin Jin’s brows furrowed. These black clouds sealing off Daluo Temple weren’t a good sign. The immortals of the Beast Deity Cult must have certain plans for the temple.

Lin Jin had faith that Daluo Temple wasn’t in cahoots with the Beast Deity Cult as he could tell from the monks’ personalities. That being the case, Daluo Temple must be in trouble.

“Brother Jin Chi, please take me to Grassy Continent’s Daluo Temple.” Lin Jin got up at once.

Since the black clouds had already locked up the temple for two days now, Lin Jin knew he would be too late for certain things no matter how quickly he went over. Still, he had to go. Even if it wasn’t to deal with the Beast Deity Cult, he had to help out, having friendship with Master Abbot and rectors.

Being a monster at peak Rank 6, Jin Chi was incredibly strong. More importantly, he was the fastest monster Lin Jin had encountered thus far.

With Jin Chi around, it would take only moments for them to reach Daluo Temple despite being thousands of miles away.

And since Jin Chi could already hold his own against immortals, he would be a reliable ally.

“Master Lin, I want to come too,” Shang’er offered. Now that she was Rank 6, her strength had immensely increased.

Lin Jin gave it a thought and nodded.

He should indeed let her accumulate experience. However, Maple City required strong experts to guard them. Goldy was to stay and Tiger Taoist was strong enough too. The visitors of the Visitation Hall could help out as well.

“Let’s go!”

Once outside the hall, Jin Chi summoned a strong gust that lifted him, Lin Jin, and Shang’er into the sky before turning into a rock and speeding away. In just a few blinks, they disappeared into the distance.

“That was so fast!” Many people who witnessed this scene gasped.

Among the crowd was Emperor He Qian who had been waiting outside without being able to meet Lin Jin.

To be honest, as Jade Dragon Kingdom’s emperor, He Qian was slightly disgruntled by Lin Jin’s refusal to meet him. He was still the country’s monarch and Lin Jin’s refusal to show him that much respect seemed unreasonable.

However, as he watched on and noticed all the strong experts gathered here for Lin Jin’s sake, He Qian knew he couldn’t show any of his dissatisfaction.

So on second thought, he felt relieved instead.

Lin Jin had exceeded the so-called immortals in strength and it was Jade Dragon’s fortune to have his protection. Although they were nearly pulverized by the Grassy Continent coalition, so long as their country still remained intact, they had a chance to gain premium country status.

No, why stop there?

With Lin Jin around, they could even overwhelm all premium countries, and He Qian was sure of that. News of Lin Jin killing a profound immortal had spread across the country after all, so how could He Qian, emperor of this country, be oblivious to it all?

He certainly knew that profound immortals were beings above regular immortals. He even went to the location where Lin Jin had killed said profound immortal. After viewing the horrible state of that land, He Qian only gave one comment.

“Immortals do have the power to shake this earth!”

Since Lin Jin killed a profound immortal, didn’t that mean he had the caliber of a profound immortal right now?

With such an expert to protect their country, Jade Dragon had to prosper. Hence, forget Lin Jin not showing He Qian respect, He Qian would even be willing to let Lin Jin be their supreme emperor.

Also, Lin Jin had saved over ten thousand of Maple City’s citizens alone. He even killed thousands of enemy soldiers and captured a hundred thousand men.

Lin Jin could overwhelm a premium country by himself.

Only fools wouldn’t appreciate such a hero. For a moment there, He Qian felt thrilled on the inside. Then, a subordinate came to inform him that Heavenly Spiral’s emperor had arrived and was requesting an audience with him.

He Qian was stunned.

A premium country’s emperor was here to see him?

Impossible!

But on second thought, it might just be true. The man was definitely here to see Lin Jin but was only meeting He Qian out of courtesy. He probably revered Lin Jin just as much and actually wanted to befriend Lin Jin.

In the past, such thoughts would be considered absurd, crazy even. But now, they had become reality.

“Sure. Send the word and invite Heavenly Spiral’s emperor over!”

Straightening his outfit, He Qian wore his mighty emperor’s facade once more. As he saw Heavenly Spiral’s emperor come over, he went over to receive his guest with a smile.
