Vol 4 Chapter 68: Mass-Producing Divine Physiques
Lin Jing headed west like a flash of lightning. Although his breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Transformation Stage came only through erupting the Heavenly Demon Physique, even without grasping the power of heaven and earth, the vast mana base of the Nascent Soul Transformation Stage alone allowed him to push the Buddhist Light Technique to its limit,
“Lü Family...”
At the borderlands, in Wangxian City, though the Lü Family had declined, it still held dominion over this region.
Before arriving in Wangxian City, Lin Jing concealed his presence. His Divine Sense swept over the city and quickly locked onto the strongest cultivator within.
It was a mid-Nascent Soul elder, who, judging by appearance, did not have many years left to live. In his current state, not to mention the Void Mystical Stage—even the Late Nascent Soul Transformation Stage was likely forever out of reach.
In one step, Lin Jing arrived in the elder’s secluded cultivation chamber and stood behind him. A breath later, the cross-legged elder trembled all over, suddenly teleporting up and turning to face Lin Jing, who had been standing behind him for quite a while.
Cold sweat poured from his head as he stared at the young man in front of him, completely unaware of how this person had entered his cave dwelling, which was layered with defensive formations.
“Who are you!” The Lü Family Ancestor was as if facing a great enemy, mana surging from his entire body, but moments later, he gave up resisting. The pressure from the youth before him was simply too immense—he had no desire to fight.
“I wonder, fellow Daoist, what brings you here?”
Lin Jing was not using his true appearance at the moment, so the Lü Family Ancestor didn’t recognize him. Lin Jing chuckled and said, “Fellow Daoist, I’ve heard your Lü Family possesses a personal magical artifact bestowed by the First Ancient Emperor—is that true?”
The Lü Family Ancestor’s expression changed. This person… had come for the “death immunity artifact”?
“What do you intend to do?”
“I want to borrow the token.” Lin Jing said.
“Impossible!” The Lü Family Ancestor frowned. “I advise you to give up on this idea. Don’t do anything rash.”
“That artifact may have been the First Emperor’s personal item during his campaigns, but it’s only a high-grade magical artifact. For someone of your strength, it’s not particularly useful.”
“The artifact’s value lies in its symbolic significance. Families that received such bestowed artifacts from the First Emperor are under the Ancient Kingdom’s highest level of protection. Even if such a family commits a heinous crime, they can be spared severe punishment.”
“So, to my Lü Family, this artifact is of extraordinary significance. But in your hands, it would just be a regular high-grade artifact. Moreover, if the Ancient Kingdom finds out you took an imperial gift, you will definitely be hunted by stronger forces from the kingdom!”
“This hot potato may not be as great as you imagine.”
“Please leave. I’ll pretend I never saw you.”
Lin Jing shook his head and said, “Given your Lü Family’s current state, even with the bestowed artifact, it’s difficult to regain past glory. Why don’t we make a deal—you give me the artifact, and I’ll offer you a great opportunity... a chance for your Lü Family to rise again.”
“But...” The Lü Family Ancestor was just about to scoff, when Lin Jing’s next words made his pupils contract.
“I can help your Lü Family produce ten Divine Physique-level descendants. Ten Divine Physiques—do you understand what that means?” Lin Jing looked at him meaningfully.
The Lü Family Ancestor’s mouth opened slightly, doubting whether he had heard correctly.
Ten Divine Physiques?
Was it the Divine Physique he knew?
Divine Physiques, even among rare cases, were almost guaranteed to achieve Nascent Soul Transformation.
The Lü Family Ancestor extended his hand, revealing a terrifying brown ginseng doll in his palm.
“This is a Mutated Earth Spirit Ginseng. If consumed before pregnancy, it will produce a child with an Innate Earth Spirit Body.”
“You even have that thing?!” The Void Mystical elder was stunned. But an Innate Earth Spirit Body... that’s far from a true Divine Physique!
The Lü Family Ancestor then took out a vial of blood.
“This is the blood essence of a mid-Void Mystical Stage Earth-element Demon Ancestor.”
And he wasn’t done yet—he pulled out a cultivation manual.
“‘Scripture of the Earth God,’ a Void Mystical-level Earth-element cultivation technique, containing a top-tier Foundation Establishment method. With the Demon Ancestor’s blood, an Innate Earth Spirit Body can be cultivated into an Earth Divine Physique.”
“With this much blood essence, and this technique, it’s enough for your Lü Family to produce ten Acquired Divine Physiques. This opportunity—do you want it or not?” Lin Jing spoke calmly.
The Mutated Earth Spirit Ginseng had been synthesized by the Pine Leaf Mouse from standard Earth Spirit Ginseng.
The Demon Ancestor’s blood was seized by Lin Jing from the Gu God Sect.
As for the ‘Scripture of the Earth God,’ it was looted from Tongtian City.
Lin Jing had many such miscellaneous items. Taken alone, their value might be limited, but combined—they could create astonishing results.
Like now: the ability to mass-produce Acquired Divine Physiques!
Lin Jing gave a gentle push, sliding the Mutated Earth Spirit Ginseng, the ‘Scripture of the Earth God,’ and the Demon Ancestor blood toward the Lü Family Ancestor for inspection. The elder took a deep breath, quickly flipping through the scripture and sensing the blood, realizing Lin Jing wasn’t lying.
These were indeed Void Mystical-level techniques and Demon Ancestor blood...
“You actually...” He didn’t expect Lin Jing to possess such rare treasures. But more baffling was why Lin Jing would trade items that would make even Void Mystical Ancients drool—for an imperial artifact that was useless to him.
“Well, are you trading or not?”
Lin Jing asked.
“If you don’t, I’ll just go to another family.”
“The Ancient Kingdom doesn’t belong solely to the Lü Family.”
The Lü Family Ancestor gritted his teeth.
A fierce internal battle raged in his mind.
“I... will trade.”
He suddenly made a decision that went against his ancestors’ will, breathing heavily—the temptation of ten Divine Physiques was simply too great.
Among those ten, even if only one cultivated the ‘Scripture of the Earth God’ to the Void Mystical Stage, then as Lin Jing said, the Lü Family would return to its peak.
“I like dealing with decisive people—saves me trouble.”
Lin Jing nodded in satisfaction and tossed over another plant.
“This is a Mutated Withered Immortal Herb. If you stab all its needles into your acupuncture points, you can transform into a corpse cultivator. I see your lifespan is running out—consider it. Though your cultivation will drop a lot, at least you’ll live longer and witness the Lü Family’s rise.”
Lin Jing casually tossed over one rare treasure after another—items the Lü Family Ancestor had never seen before.
But these treasures... made his eyelids twitch.
Fellow Daoist, this stuff of yours... doesn’t seem like what a normal cultivator should have.
After that, Lin Jing handed over nine more Mutated Earth Spirit Ginsengs to the Lü Family Ancestor.
“The bestowed artifact’s power lies, as you said, in its symbolism. Our trade is just between us—no third party will know. As long as I don’t talk, and you don’t talk, the artifact’s deterrent force will remain intact. The Lü Family will still be protected, as long as you don’t commit treason.”
“Many thanks... fellow Daoist.” The Lü Family Ancestor gave a respectful bow. At this moment, this was indeed an overwhelming opportunity.
Although the Earth Divine Physique ranked only around 90 among common Divine Physiques, if the Lü Family could suddenly produce ten, it would still be terrifying.
“I ask fellow Daoist to wait a few days. The bestowed artifact is hidden in an extremely secure place. Give me some time, and I’ll retrieve it for you!”
