"The Saint Heir's reaction was swift; had you been slower, your mosquito swarm would have been mine."
"What will you do next? Even if you summon your own contract pet beast, it's the same. Under my Ten Thousand Beasts Circle, it will still be suppressed."
"If you're unlucky, your pet beast might even be taken by me."
Lin Jing summoned the Ten Fiends of the Cloud Sea, crushing the previous Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciple. The Great Wilderness Cultivators originally thought Lin Jing was nearly invincible, but did not expect this later-appearing Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciple to be even more outrageous, even able to activate a mid-grade magic artifact.
Both sides demonstrated beast control techniques, but it now seems that the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciple's methods were more terrifying.
In this situation, many Beast Taming Sect disciples broke out in a cold sweat, worrying for Lin Jing. If the contract pet beast was absorbed and refined by that Ten Thousand Beasts Circle, it would be disastrous.
"Hehe."
At this moment, anyone could see Lin Jing's situation was dire, but surprisingly, Lin Jing could still smile, though that smile was anything but friendly.
"Interesting, it seems I've underestimated you."
Lin Jing did not insist, he put away the Ten Thousand Beasts Circle and touched the gourd at his waist.
"I said, even sending out my contract pet beast wouldn't help." Qingyu, holding the Ten Thousand Beasts Circle, said, "I activated the mid-grade Ten Thousand Beasts Circle with the True Solution of Ten Thousand Beasts. Demon beasts below the Demon Core Stage can be subdued instantly, and even those at the Demon Core Stage can be restrained a bit."
"Who said this gourd contains my contract pet beast?" Lin Jing's expression was calm, "I'm quite curious if your Ten Thousand Beasts Circle can suppress and absorb 'any beast.'
The opponent took out a mid-grade magic artifact, and Lin Jing didn't know if the Pine Leaf Mouse could handle it, so he didn't choose to face it head-on.
As he thought, the sky suddenly darkened. When everyone looked up, they saw Lin Jing had taken out countless vines from his space magic artifact!!!
The vines covered the sky like dark clouds, and there were knowledgeable people present who, despite thinking the color didn't match, immediately recognized the vines' appearance as being exceedingly similar to the fierce Blood-sucking Vine.
"Beast Taming of plants?"
Qingyu thought it unlikely Lin Jing would use a low-level fierce plant like the Blood-sucking Vine against him. While it's true the Ten Thousand Beasts Circle cannot restrain plant spirits, the Blood-sucking Vine seemed a bit too weak.
However, in the next moment, Qingyu's pupils shrank instantly. After summoning the Blood-sucking Vine, Lin Jing unexpectedly summoned a mosquito beast but did not have it attack the enemy; instead, he crushed the flying mosquito with one palm!!!
Bang!
The mosquito beast exploded into a sky full of blood droplets, which were immediately absorbed by the Blood-sucking Vine in the sky!!
Qingyu's heart trembled, an ominous premonition emerging.
This scene made the Demon King Ancestor and elders of the Beast Taming Sect twitch their mouths. Previously, Lin Jing using the Ten Thousand Beasts Circle to control the fierce mosquito beast could still be understood, but now using life as a sacrifice was no better than the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciple's previous use of birds for self-destruction.
The several Demon King Ancestors glared at the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciple unkindly. Although they didn't understand Lin Jing's technique, they knew that this move, without summoning other pet beasts, was entirely forced by the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciple!
Of course, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciple Qingyu also had some regret; the mosquito beast itself was a blood-sucking creature, and now the mosquito beast had become the target of blood-sucking, undeniably creating a chilling sensation.
In the next instant, this chilling sensation became fully tangible, as in the horrified gazes of people, the Blood-sucking Vines began birthing blood-colored mosquito beasts, dense in number and terrifying in quantity.
A single mosquito beast as a sacrifice summoned hundreds and thousands of blood mosquito beasts through these vines.
This was the Mosquito Empowerment that Lin Jing had envisioned!
"You've got to be kidding..." Qingyu's pupils shrank, activating the Ten Thousand Beasts Circle immediately. But as Lin Jing had said, these blood mosquitoes didn't count as demon beasts; they lacked intelligence and life, making the Ten Thousand Beasts Circle powerless.
The atmosphere filled with a bloody aura, and the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciple's mind trembled, unsure if he should summon his own demon beast army to fight back. Because he felt even if he called forth his own demon beasts from the Ten Thousand Beasts Circle, they wouldn't be a match for this terrifying blood mosquito swarm.
Instinctively, he cast a pleading look towards the Vice Sect Leader.
"Who dares to wield sorcery here!!!"
Just as Qingyu was unsure of what to do, a voice interrupted the magic duel, resonating like heavenly music in his ears.
Several figures simultaneously descended upon the ceremonial mountaintop. Dressed in black demon-slaying uniforms, their eyes sharp, these were the cultivators of the Demon Extermination Bureau, tasked with guarding the Demon Suppressing Tower after the sect closure of the Beast Taming Sect.
The Beast Taming Sect had invited them to this conferment ceremony, but due to their duties, these Demon Exterminators did not attend. However, who would have thought that on the day of the ceremony, they would suddenly sense an immense aura of blood from beyond, a terrifying bloody presence that only a great demon of the blood path could possess.
But when they arrived, they discovered that the one controlling countless blood beasts was none other than the Saint Heir of the Beast Taming Sect...
At this moment, with blood mosquitoes filling the skies, even the Beast Taming Sect didn't dare assert that their Saint Heir was a righteous cultivator. Now, with the arrival of the Demon Extermination Bureau drawn by the scent of blood, the elders of the Beast Taming Sect couldn't help but feel tense, and the Demon King Ancestors felt similarly uneasy.
This sinister magic... where on earth did Lin Jing learn it?
"Take him away, take him away, take him away!!!" The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciple's heart pounded wildly, hoping the Demon Exterminators would take Lin Jing away so that he wouldn't have to continue fighting him. He regretted it; he realized he'd been wrong. This guy was definitely not a normal Guardian Dao Cultivator!
Fortunately, Lin Jing had anticipated this situation. After glancing at the Demon Exterminators, he took out a token.
Gao Sheng had said, with this token, even if he used the Ice Soul Gu against an enemy, he could prove his identity.
"One of us."
Indeed, upon seeing the token, the few Demon Exterminators guarding the Undying Demon immediately changed their expressions and said, "Greetings, sir. We shall excuse ourselves."
Qingyu of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect: ???
Though Lin Jing didn't look like someone of the righteous path, the token he took out was from the Gao Family, one of the four great demon extermination families, and none of the Demon Exterminators had the authority to question Lin Jing.
"See, now you can't act anymore, can you?" With the Demon Extermination Bureau out of the way, Lin Jing gave a smile-filled gaze at the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciple.
"Bluffing!" The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciple's face twisted in disbelief. He couldn't accept such an absurd reality. How could a single mosquito beast multiply into so many blood mosquitoes and still retain their power? This enormous number of blood mosquitoes could not possibly wield the same strength as a normal mosquito beast!
In his heart, stretched nearly to the breaking point, he immediately summoned his demon beast army to attack Lin Jing.
In truth, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciple's judgment wasn't wrong. Lin Jing had found through experimentation that the blood mosquito army did not possess a strength greater than a normal mosquito army of the same number. But in quantity, it was overwhelming, and under the blood link, equally terrifying!
Additionally, Lin Jing creating this blood mosquito army was just the first step.
Unfortunately, pressed for time, his grand mechanism crafted around the "blood and qi array" was still only a prototype. Otherwise, the true purpose of these blood mosquitoes, made entirely of blood, was to serve as a power source for driving the mechanism!
Compared to actual mosquito beasts, the composition of the blood mosquitoes was extremely pure, making them highly suitable as a power source.
However, the current situation hadn't reached the point where Lin Jing needed to bring out the prototype mechanism.
If it did, Lin Jing would certainly let this Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciple see how a single mosquito could fissure into countless blood mosquitoes, and then re-fuse into an even more terrifying existence.
"This useless lot!" The Vice Sect Leader of the watching Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, red-eyed, looked on as the opposing demon beast army was crushed by the countless blood mosquitoes, deeming this disciple beyond hope.
Didn't the fool realize that whether it's the initial vines or these bizarre blood mosquitoes, they were all being manipulated by a squirrel hidden in Lin Jing's sleeve?! If he'd noticed this, he could have used the Ten Thousand Beasts Circle to attack the Squirrel Spirit directly, circumventing those blood mosquitoes.
But alas, there was no "if." Facing Lin Jing's onslaught, a low-level cultivator simply couldn't grasp the key to the battle like a Nascent Soul Cultivator could.
After this battle, the Vice Sect Leader of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect knew that instead of intriguing Lin Jing with the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect's legacy, it was their own disciple's Dao heart that broke first. But what puzzled him was that he'd never heard of a Beast Taming Sect disciple fighting with such a style!
