CHAPTER 232: CHAPTER 38: NEWCOMER TO THE DEMON COURT

The events in Celestial Cyan City kept fermenting, gradually spreading throughout the Cyan Nether Dao and radiating to several surrounding regions.

Xu Qingyao and Ouyang Hao believed that as soon as Lin Jing heard the news, he would immediately understand...

The senior sister has already resolved the Supreme Profound Sect issue for him, quickly come back to the agreed location for a meeting!

However, Xu Qingyao and Ouyang Hao waited for a long time, and Lin Jing still didn’t return!

"Could this guy have been caught by the Demon Sect during the escape?" Xu Qingyao wondered.

"No way... Junior Brother’s illusion technique level can even deceive those in the Divinity Transformation stage, it’s not that easy for him to get into trouble..." Ouyang Hao replied.

They were puzzled at this moment, where could Lin Jing have run off to in such a short time, logically he shouldn’t have gone far.

Until they waited for another period, nearing the date of the agreement between Senior Brother Ouyang and Lin Jing, in the hourglass world, Lin Jing slowly opened his eyes...

"It took nearly a year, but I finally mastered the Three Heads Six Arms technique at an introductory level. Fortunately, although difficult, it’s not as hard as the Celestial Demon Body."

The three-headed, six-armed Lin Jing stood atop the gravel, resembling a monster.

Unfortunately, in his current state, the only effect of this magic skill was that he could simultaneously wield six magic artifacts, but he didn’t have suitable and handy artifacts to use right now.

Although Lin Jing was currently holding a full set of flails, swords, and halberds...

They were all Grotto Heaven loot... at most of middle-tier level, not ones he could use effectively.

The power of this technique lies in being able to wield multiple magic artifacts...

However, if the user doesn’t have enough artifacts, or if the artifacts are of poor quality and not handy, this magic skill then becomes somewhat impractical.

"Having learned it is enough, I can slowly find suitable magic artifacts, I need a set of six complementary artifacts! But in the best scenario, it should still be six pet beasts transformed into weapons using beast transformation artifacts..."

Lin Jing withdrew his astral body, feeling that the time was about right, looked at the still desolate hourglass world, and shook his head.

The environment here is peculiar, the pine leaf mouse has been afforesting for a long time, yet not a single plant has survived...

Thankfully, despite the poor environment, the core effect is astonishing, Lin Jing spent a long time inside to master the Three Heads Six Arms, while outside probably not much time has passed.

Apart from his significant gains, the Fire Lin Dragon has also made an effort to refine the Fire Cloud Pill it owed and, after spending a lot of time, finally mastered the Sun Flame.

Its Yang energy wasn’t as abundant as the Yuan Yang Body, but the goodness of Dragon Yang was quite superior. As a fire dragon, its Yang energy isn’t something ordinary beings can compare with. After expending more time, it finally replicated Senior Brother Ouyang’s different flame.

At this point, it already possessed five great different flames, its power reaching near indulgence, even with the Dragon Emperor bloodline, its current body would struggle to withstand more power.

The next step it needed was to compress and condense its internal power into an invincible Demon Pill, causing its physique to undergo a brand-new metamorphosis, in pursuit of a higher realm of power!!!

"Hmm???"

Lin Jing, hidden in form, returned from the hourglass space, looked at the two people in the Pill Pavilion, one slumped over a table, the other hanging on a chair sleeping, and fell into contemplation.

He left the Pill Pavilion for a moment, then entered again, removing the third layer of concealment illusion from his body, having understood what had happened from the outside world.

"Senior Sister, Xu Qingyao, huh..."

At this moment, as Lin Jing lifted the invisibility illusion, Xu Qingyao also slowly lifted her head from a leaning position, her expression unfriendly.

"Saint Heir, is it? You finally came."

Lin Jing scratched his cheek, feeling it better not to tell the other party that he had always been in a different space near the Pill Pavilion.

"Why aren’t you speaking." Xu Qingyao looked at the young man in front of her wearing the Fire Cloud Pill uniform in surprise. Although she had heard from Ouyang Hao about the Beast Taming Saint Child’s expertise in illusions, she didn’t expect him to be this proficient; even her demon awareness couldn’t discern the true appearance after his alchemist transformation.

No wonder he hasn’t died yet despite having a Longevity Body, with his impressive skills!

"Junior Brother!" At this time, Senior Brother Ouyang also woke up, looking at Lin Jing with surprise, cursing internally, if he had known he wouldn’t have arranged the meeting with Lin Jing so late, this kid really knows how to cut it close!

"Thanks so much to Senior Sister and Senior Brother for helping me out..." Lin Jing smiled faintly and said, "Much appreciated, this Grotto Heaven, truly unexpected..."

"So, are you still determined to be out there on your own?" Xu Qingyao got up and said, "Junior Brother, come back with me, my palace is not in the same place as the Demon Court, with only Demon Emperor level experts nearby, with your illusion skills, you won’t be discovered for who you are."

"Of course, I understand you’re surely worried about encountering Demon Ancestor level demon beasts, or even the Demon Emperor!"

"But rest assured, His Majesty the Demon Emperor has been in seclusion for years, never showing up."

"And within the Demon Court, the Demon Ancestors are basically in their own clan spaces. Of course, should you come back with me, meeting a Demon Ancestor is inevitable in the future, but with this, there’s no problem, right?" She took out a Demon Pill and tossed it to Lin Jing.

Lin Jing caught the Demon Pill, his heart stunned.

A Demon Emperor’s Pill?!!!

Upon receiving the Demon Pill, Lin Jing immediately understood its function.

"In the Demon Court, there’s a clan named the Chameleon, even without cultivation, when they are just ordinary beasts, they possess the ability to change colors and become invisible, extremely unique."

"After cultivation, they become highly skilled in transformation techniques. A Demon Emperor level chameleon can deceive even Demon Ancestors, fooling everyone."

"Among them, the Demon Pill of the chameleon has the effect of enhancing illusions, this Chameleon Demon Emperor’s Pill, I exchanged from the treasure vault of the Demon Court for my own safety a long time ago, now I don’t need it anymore, so it’s yours. With your illusion skills, combined with this Chameleon Demon Pill amplification, you won’t have to worry about revealing your true self in front of the Demon Court Demon Ancestors."

"So, how about it, can you come back with me now?"

Lin Jing held the Chameleon Demon Emperor’s Pill, grinning, he said, "No problem, from now on, wherever you go, Senior Sister, I’ll follow, whatever you want me to do, I’ll do... I’ll definitely refine the Transformation Pill for you!"

Has Lin Jing not wanted to settle down after wandering for so long? Of course not, it was purely out of a lack of a sense of security, but now, the senior sister has provided him plenty of security.

He feels more reliable than Elder Shen Song!

"What is the name of this alter ego of yours?" Xu Qingyao also smiled, fully appreciating this perceptive Saint Heir.

"Wandering Alchemist, not yet named." Lin Jing replied.

"Your fictional master goes by Fire Dragon Pill Venerable, so you’ll be called Fire Dragon Alchemist, under me, the Demon Court Saintess Xu Qingyao, as the Pill Dao Honored Guest Elder, a newcomer in the Demon Court!"

"I heard you have decent strength... going forward, besides researching the Transformation Pill which will be entrusted to you, might occasionally require you to engage in some battles, is that okay?" Xu Qingyao’s mouth slightly curved up.

"Battles?" Lin Jing was puzzled.

"Among the three Saintesses of the Demon Court, there are actual differences in resource, status treatments, the Demon Court Saintess usually needs to increase their power through three means."

"First, their own strength."

"Second, progress in researching the Transformation Dao."

"Third, the potential of their followers."

"Among the three Saintesses, they usually have followers with talent and potential compete against each other for power and benefits. I joined the Demon Court the latest, and have the fewest potential demon beasts under me, even fewer talented humans, only a few Sons of the Demon Emperor can be used, so I’m always at a disadvantage in this area. If this changes, more resources can be obtained to study the Transformation Pill."

"I see, then leave it to me." Lin Jing nodded, even without relying on the pine leaf mouse and Ice Soul Gu, just with illusion techniques and the Fire Lin Dragon, he should be quite strong.

"Is that so? How reassuring, then you should first elevate the pet beast’s cultivation to the Golden Core. The Saintesses don’t need followers at the Foundation Establishment stage, it’s basically a battle of Demon Pills... your fire dragon is already at the peak of Foundation Establishment, right? Do you need me to prepare a Core Formation Treasure Land for you?"
