Vol 3 Chapter 47: The Qilin Tea Gathering
Lin Jing had just sent off his illusionary form when a figure suddenly teleported in front of them.
"Finally making your move?"
Seeing Lin Jing finally release his clone to stir up trouble within the Sky Lion Clan, Xu Qingyao chuckled, looking forward to the big news that would follow.
"Senior Sister, you sure are carefree. Don’t you need to enter seclusion for cultivation?" Lin Jing glanced at Xu Qingyao.
"Cultivation is a matter of the heart! The further you progress, the less you can rely on bitter seclusion alone." Xu Qingyao spoke up. "You've been in seclusion for half a year. What’s the situation with that carp?"
Lin Jing smiled. "Looks like there's no need to go to the Qilin Clan. It’s progressing at lightning speed. In just half a year, it has traced its bloodline back to ancient times. Attack, defense, and speed—its three major forms have all fully materialized!"
"The demonic technique Divine Dragon Transformation has even reached the third layer. It’s about to use the breakthrough to the fourth layer as an opportunity to form its core!"
"That fast?" Xu Qingyao was surprised.
The first layer of Divine Dragon Transformation was just an entry-level stage that allowed it to manifest four elemental forms.
Reaching the second layer doubled the destructive power of its attack form, but at the cost of reducing the other attributes—defense and speed—to half their original levels.
At the third layer, the destructive power of the attack form tripled…
And the fourth layer would reach a terrifying fourfold increase.
To cultivate to such a level was already frightening. In specific situations, the power it could display compared to before cultivating the technique would be absolutely overwhelming. This was the true strength of a top-tier demonic beast technique.
"Not too bad, I suppose." Lin Jing smiled… though, in reality, it hadn’t been that fast. On the surface, it seemed like half a year, but the truth was five years.
Over five years, the Dragon Carp had cultivated the defense-based Qilin form and the speed-based Pegasus form, bringing its demonic technique to the peak of the third layer. Lin Jing felt that was neither too fast nor too slow—after all, its foundational bloodline was already there.
"But..." Xu Qingyao shook her head and said, "Even though it doesn’t need to visit the Qilin Clan to excavate its Qilin bloodline, you definitely have to go there."
"Hmm?" Lin Jing raised an eyebrow.
"Every so often, the Three Holy Maidens of the Demon Court hold a Holy Maiden Tea Gathering at the territory of a core clan within the Demon Court."
"During this gathering, the Three Holy Maidens present their latest re
A massive skeletal bird airship emerged from the clouds. Before boarding, Xu Qingyao tossed out several bottles of pills.
"Holy Maiden, what are these?" The members of Sparrowfeather took the pills, momentarily stunned.
"These are Solar False Cores refined by the Fire Dragon Alchemist. The high-temperature techniques Ouyang and he use were cultivated through these pills. Each of you will take one. Since we're heading to the Qilin Clan in advance, try to cultivate False Core Alchemy in the Qilin Clan's Flame Cavern."
The crowd was dumbfounded and turned to look at Lin Jing.
Lin Jing only glanced at them indifferently and said, "Thank the Holy Maiden. If she hadn’t asked me, I wouldn’t have bothered refining these for you."
"Many thanks, Holy Maiden!!!"
Niu Di and the others looked at Xu Qingyao with gratitude. This top-tier False Core Alchemy would greatly enhance their strength before reaching the Nascent Soul stage. Just the thought of obtaining techniques as terrifying as Lin Jing’s made them burn with excitement.
"Many thanks, Fire Dragon Alchemist! Many thanks, Captain!"
They also thanked Lin Jing. He simply waved his hand indifferently, unconcerned.
Soon, everyone boarded the airship, and the demonic vessel took off.
It would take some time to reach the Qilin Clan’s territory. Sitting on the ship, Lin Jing originally wanted to use his Pine Leaf Mouse to sense the situation of his two clones when Ouyang Hao suddenly sneaked over, looking secretive.
"Junior Brother."
"I recently went out and saw our master."
"We’ve been discussing something. Want to give your opinion?"
"What is it?"
"Now that our Beast Taming Sect has secured a foothold under Senior Sister, should we send people to the Ancient Celestial Kingdom, bring back all the Beast Taming Sect members from the Great Wasteland, and stop being a sect of the Ancient Kingdom altogether? Instead, we could fully settle in Qingzhou for generations to come."
Lin Jing: ???
"You’re already planning to run?"
