"Is this your idea or the Sect Leader's idea?" Lin Jing was taken aback.
Ouyang Hao shook his head: "Neither, it's from Senior Sister."
"Carefully thinking about it, the Ancient Country is established based on destiny, which is almost contrary to the development path of our Beast Taming Sect."
"Even if in the next hundred years, our Beast Taming Sect can adjust so that human destiny surpasses demon destiny, what about after thousands of years? The same situation will inevitably occur again!"
"This is also why there are almost no human race cultivators with 'demon beast bloodlines' in the Ancient Country, yet many in Qingzhou; the survival grounds are mutually exclusive, which is detrimental to development."
"Senior Sister believes that if the Beast Taming Sect comes to the freer Qingzhou, backed by the Demon Court, we can certainly have better development and more opportunities."
Lin Jing fell into deep thought, then said, "The problem is that most of the disciples and elders of the Beast Taming Sect have their own families in the Ancient Country; the Beast Taming Sect is not their everything."
"Much like the elders and disciples of the Beast Taming Sect who came to Qingzhou this time, most are alone."
"But the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect staying at the Flower Sect come from various cultivation families in the Wilderness. Besides the Beast Taming Sect, they also have other relatives in the Wilderness. For these people, asking them to leave the Ancient Country and head to Qingzhou is virtually impossible. After all, this might mean they will never see their relatives again."
"Indeed." Ouyang Hao sighed, and said, "This is one of the reasons why the Sect Leader finds it inappropriate."
"Do you have any good ideas, Junior Brother?"
Lin Jing shrugged, "You, the Young Sect Leader, grapple with this yourself. I won't participate in major sect decisions. When the Ancient Country is safe, I'm there; when there's protection from the Demon Court in Qingzhou, I'm here. Personally, I don't mind where I am."
He wasn't originally from this world, had no deep feelings for the Ancient Country, and no relatives there, so he was completely content to go with the flow, having no opinion on Senior Sister's views.
If he actually refined the Transformation Pill in the end, being supported by the Demon Court might be safer than the Ancient Country.
After all, in the Ancient Country, the strong ones there only provided him, a student of the academy, and a genius of the Ancient Country symbolic protection due to "legal regulations" to prevent evil cultivators from invading.
But the law is just a tool for rulers to maintain stability, and for those who make the law, his Longevity Body can be discarded at any time. The Beast Taming Sect and he aren't that important to the Ancient Country.
However, if a cooperation can be reached with the Demon Court through the Transformation Pill, then the binding would be a matter of mutual interest, much more reliable than national law.
"Alright..." Seeing that Lin Jing had no ideas, Brother Ouyang scratched his head.
......
Several days later, Queyu arrived early at the Qilin Race's territory, where a giant secret realm space vortex lay between the mountains, a Demon Emperor Realm Fire Qilin stood above the sky.
"Greetings, Her Highness the Saintess, I am the Great Elder of the Qilin Race, Lin Ye." The Fire Qilin slowly spoke.
"Elder Lin Ye..." The Saintess Xu Qingyao disembarked from the flying boat: "My early arrival must have disturbed you."
"The Saintess is too polite..." The Fire Qilin's divine sense scanned the figures sitting on various parts of the flying boat, saying: "Is this group here to use the cultivation land of the Fire Qilin Race?"
"These people are all my followers, recently cultivating flame magic..." Xu Qingyao nodded.
"Then come with me."
Not long after arriving at the Qilin Race's secret realm space, Queyu members, including Senior Brother Ouyang, were arranged by this Qilin Demon Emperor into cave residences rich in fire attribute energy, except for Lin Jing...
"Elder Lin Ye, this follower of mine is somewhat special and different from the others, his contracted pet beast is a Fire Qilin on the verge of Core Formation, so we wish to use the 'Ancestral Land' of the Qilin Race for its Core Formation, may we?"
"Hmm??" The Qilin Demon Emperor looked at the only one left, Lin Jing, and spoke: "A Fire Qilin of the scattered lineage outside?"
"No, it's a little fellow whose ancestor had Qilin bloodline, nurtured and excavated by this follower of mine, evolved into a Fire Qilin."
"Alright, in light of the face of Her Highness the Saintess, let his pet beast into the Ancestral Land, but I advise you not to hold too much hope, those with sparse Qilin bloodlines find it difficult to receive the ancestor's blessing." Nightfall Demon Emperor spoke faintly.
The Ancestral Land of the Qilin Race.
Where the bones of countless Qilin ancestors are buried.
It is the unified breakthrough spot for Qilin Demon Beasts.
Breaking through here, if the talent is excellent, there is a chance to awaken those already dead Qilin ancestors to bless the descendant's bloodline!
"Thank you, Your Excellency, Nightfall Demon Emperor." Lin Jing saluted.
This Fire Qilin Demon Emperor didn't bother to acknowledge Lin Jing; clearly not regarding a human as significant.
"Release it then, if it can awaken a Qilin ancestor for a blessing, it might inherit some powerful Qilin demon techniques." Xu Qingyao spoke.
Upon hearing this, Lin Jing gently waved his arm, summoning a fire Qilin with big, round eyes, exuding a fierce and aggressive demeanor.
Originally, Nightfall Demon Emperor didn't take it seriously, but as Dragon Koi appeared in defense form. Although it didn't look intimidating, its powerful royal-grade fire bloodline aura spread, causing Nightfall Demon Emperor's pupils to constrict.
"Royal-grade bloodline!!!" It exclaimed in surprise: "How could a sparse bloodline Qilin with Qilin ancestry reach a royal-grade bloodline!!!"
"Wuu~" Dragon Koi rolled its eyes at it, as royal-grade bloodline was the least worthy of boasting about itself.
"If they didn't have some skills, they wouldn't become my followers." Xu Qingyao smiled lightly: "Elder Lin Ye shouldn't underestimate my followers."
Nightfall Demon Emperor realized and said: "Apologies, if it's a royal-grade bloodline, perhaps during breakthrough it could truly receive an ancestor's blessing. If it succeeds in getting the ancestor's blessing, it could return to its roots and receive grand training from the Qilin Race!"
"Then thank Elder Lin Ye in advance..." Xu Qingyao said.
Soon, Dragon Koi entered deeper into the Qilin Race's Ancestral Land for cultivation and breakthrough, as for Lin Jing, being human, he wasn't qualified to enter the Qilin Race's Ancestral Land. However, being within the Qilin Secret Realm and not far apart, he could sense through the contract, almost no different from being by its side, able to feel its state at any time.
"Cultivate well and condense the pill as soon as possible."
Within Lin Jing's thoughts, he also began quietly cultivating in the cave residence arranged by the Fire Qilin Race, as forming a core, be it for cultivators or demon beasts, wasn't something that could be done in a few days. It takes at least one or two months, as during the breakthrough process, the Golden Core and Demon Pill need time to nurture divine techniques...
As for whether Dragon Koi could gain recognition from a Qilin ancestor here and obtain the inheritance of Qilin demon techniques, Lin Jing didn't pay much attention, as he and Dragon Koi didn't lack these Qilin demon techniques; the Divine Techniques of the Flame Emperor were already ample. It wasn't because it was along the way and due to Senior Sister's suggestion that he decided to come here...
He only hoped that Dragon Koi would have a smooth breakthrough and would not cause any trouble in the Ancestral Land of the Qilin Race.
"Next, I'll devote some mind to focus on my avatar over there..."
