Lin Jin jumped onto a boulder, looked at the flames in the distance, and smiled at the corner of his mouth.
Seven years ago, he let Xiao Huo leave and wander around the fairy mountain to survive. After all, in the realm of the fairy mountain, many beasts are eighth-order beasts, and among them, Xiao Huo is not the most outstanding one.
This is the method of promotion to the ninth rank that Lin Jin thought of.
For seven years, Lin Jin hadn't seen Xiao Huo, nor allowed him to come back, but because of the blood contract, Lin Jin could feel Xiao Huo's location and its current state at any time.
In the past years, Xiaohuo has experienced extremely tragic fights, and has encountered extremely powerful opponents, some are weaker than it, but the number is huge, and some are very few in number, but their strength can surpass Xiaohuo.
But these opponents were all defeated by Xiao Huo without exception.
Some were directly killed and devoured, and became the source of Xiaohuo's power, while others chose to submit and became Xiaohuo's minions.
Lin Jin doesn't interfere with all this, what he wants is to cultivate Xiaohuo's wildest side, he wants Xiaohuo to become the beast king of the fairy mountain.
It's just that the fairy mountain is too big, larger than a state in Middle Earth. In such a vast mountainous area, Xiao Huo is not the only beast who wants to become the king of all beasts.
What's more, before that, there was already a person who could truly become a king, and that was the ninth-order swallowing immortal beast.
The Immortal Swallowing Beast is undoubtedly the king here, and no one dares to challenge its authority and existence. This is also a test question Lin Jin asked Xiaohuo.
How to develop and grow under the eyes of the already powerful and coercive king, and replace it, if this thing can be done, Xiaohuo will definitely be able to advance to the ninth rank.
In the past seven years, Lin Jin has experienced many dangers by himself, and even almost died a few times, but compared to Xiaohuo, Lin Jin feels that he is still far behind.
Fortunately, in the blink of an eye in seven years, Xiaohuo is no longer what it used to be.
Although through the blood deed, Xiao Huo knew that Xiao Huo had not been promoted yet, but now Xiao Huo is very close to the ninth rank, maybe just one step away, or even separated by a layer of window paper.
After a while, the flames in the distance slowly disappeared, and Lin Jin knew that the battle over there was over.
He also jumped off boulders.
Over the years, Xiaohuo has picked off the rising beast kings from all over the fairy mountain one by one, and the one just now may be the last one or two.
Lin Jin's side is only accompanied by Qingfeng Yaojian, Sihai Zizai gourd, and a big white horse, which is quite lonely, but Xiaohuo's side is not like that.
The number of ferocious beasts subdued by Xiaohuo in these years is at least hundreds, and they are all extremely powerful. It may not be long before Xiaohuo's strength will be noticed by the swallowing beast.
In other words, the Immortal Swallowing Beast has already noticed.
Maybe a big battle has already begun, and Lin Jin doesn't need to add fuel to the flames now, he just needs to follow the trend and wait and see what happens.
As long as Xiao Huo can defeat the Immortal-Tuning Beast at that time, the fragment of the cornerstone of the Heavenly Dao in the Immortal-Tuning Beast can be collected.
But Laojun, after seven years, should be back.
Sometimes, the person just doesn't talk.
Here Lin Jin was just thinking about whether it was time for Laojun to come back, but after less than half a day, Laojun really came.
"Little friend Lin, this old man is here for an appointment." The old gentleman was busy all the way, and Lin Jin hurriedly stood up to greet him. The two hadn't seen each other for seven years, and they had changed a lot.
On Lin Jin's side, he has obviously lost the immaturity of the past. Now he is extremely mature, even with vicissitudes of life. Laojun's side has not changed much, but the tiredness on his face cannot be hidden.
Obviously, in the past seven years, in order to find the fragments of the cornerstones of the Dao of Heaven scattered all over the place, the old gentleman has never stopped for a moment, and he should have traveled all over the place.
Compared with Laojun, it is relatively easier for Lin Jin to search all over the fairy mountains.
"Old gentleman, I haven't seen you for many years, are you still in good health?" Lin Jin also greeted him with a smile, and at this time Laojun looked at Lin Jin dumbfounded.
It turned out that when the two met, Laojun found that Lin Jin was much taller than him. Before, the two had almost the same height, but after seeing each other seven years later, Lin Jin was already more than two heads taller than Laojun.
Don't say Laojun was surprised, even Lin Jin was stunned.
"Old gentleman, why have you shrunk in size?" Lin Jin asked, Laojun smiled wryly: "Although I am old, I will not shrink like this. It is Lin Xiaoyou who is taller."
Lin Jin hadn't seen outsiders in the past seven years, so he didn't notice any changes in his body. Now after what Laojun said, he realized that compared with Laojun, he was indeed much stronger and taller. Quite a few, Lin Jin's height was no different from ordinary people before, reaching the average standard, but now, Lin Jin is at least two meters tall.
"This must be because of living in Xianshan." Lin Jin immediately thought of the key.
Naturally, this fairy mountain can not only affect beasts, but also people.
At this moment, Laojun was also counting Lin Jin's longevity, and he immediately showed surprise.
"It seems that this old man should live in this fairy mountain for a few more years."
It turns out that Lin Jin's lifespan has doubled compared to before. It can be said that living in the fairy mountain can make him immortal easily. The most important thing is that he can improve his physical body. Lin Jin is still a mortal body now, but his The body is enough to be compared with the fairy body.
This is not what Lin Jin said, but what Laojun said.
"But it's a pity that this opportunity is gone." Laojun sighed with emotion at this time.
Lin Jin heard something in Laojun's words, and asked, the latter smiled and threw a pocket to Lin Jin. This pocket is woven with gold wire, which is extremely soft and full of toughness. It is definitely a treasure.
It seemed to be filled with small stones, and when it shook, it made a non-stop noise.
Lin Jin immediately knew what was inside.
"There are so many?" Lin Jin was surprised, and the old gentleman nodded; "I have traveled all over the country, the middle land, the land outside the territory, the underground nether world, the nine heavens and the mysterious world, and the four major worlds. I also swam all over the sea area before finding all the pieces, thanks to my fortune-telling skills, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to figure it out.”
Lin Jin is very aware of the difficulty of finding these fragments. It can be said that in this world, except Laojun, no one can complete this task, including himself.
I am exhausted looking for the land of the fairy mountain, but the place outside is hundreds of times bigger than the fairy mountain. Laojun really worked hard.
"According to my calculations, the catastrophe of annihilation is about to come. I conservatively estimated it was a year ago, but after looking at it later, I'm afraid it may not even be six months." Laojun's words are the key point.
Lin Jin understood why Laojun said before that he had no luck to improve his physique in this fairy mountain, but it was because he had no time.
"How about your side, how much is short?" Laojun asked.
Lin Jin looked up to see where the cornerstone of the Dao of Heaven was, and murmured: "If there is no accident, there are only two pieces left."
Laojun immediately understood.
Of these two pieces, one is naturally the largest fragment in the body of the ninth-level swallowing beast, and the second piece is the one in Lin Jin's hand.
"What's your plan?" Laojun knew that the most difficult thing was the fragment in the body of the ninth-level swallowing beast. If you want to take this piece, you must defeat the swallowing beast.
"Within three months, we should see the outcome." Lin Jin looked at the place where the flames were all over the sky before, with a hint of affirmation in his expression.
Hundreds of miles away from Lin Jin and Laojun, this is the top of a mountain. At this moment, a huge fire wolf stands proudly. The flames all over its body seem to burn the sky and penetrate the underworld.
At this moment, the eyes of this fire wolf have a kind of domineering, a kind of majesty, which is the momentum of a king, and even more wildness of a beast.
There are many powerful ferocious beasts around, some are strangely shaped, some are like giant lions, tigers, bears and leopards, each of them exudes the aura of eighth-order beasts, and each of them was once the king of a certain mountain.
But now, they all surrendered to that huge fire wolf.
No one even dared to look at the fire wolf beast.
Those stubborn beasts had already been reduced to ashes in the raging flames. At this moment, the fire wolf looked at a huge mountain peak hidden in the sky in the distance.
That is the habitat of the swallowing beast.
Around that mountain peak, no ferocious beast dared to enter, because everyone knew that stepping into it was declaring war on the Immortal Devouring Beast.
In the past few years, the Fire Wolf Beast wanted to enter it countless times, but it endured every time.
Because it remembers the master's words.
Unless you are 100% sure, never try to challenge the Immortal Swallowing Beast.
This fire wolf is naturally Lin Jin's beast pet, Xiaohuo. At this moment, it feels that it has reached the final level of promotion to the ninth level, and then it has been practicing in place for two months.
It hopes to break through to the ninth level within these two months.
Progress has been made, but the distance from piercing the layer of paper is still a little bit short.
What is wrong, Xiao Huo is also puzzled.
Later it thought of the key.
In an instant, the flames on Xiaohuo's body surged, and he got up, his body was as big as a mountain, and then he raised his head to the sky and roared, and a wolf's howl immediately resounded through the fairy mountain, and even spread for nine days.
This momentum is just like the Immortal Swallowing Beast in the past, because before this, only the Immortal Swallowing Beast's voice could directly spread throughout the Nine Heavens Profound Realm.
Now, Xiaohuo can do it too.
There was finally movement on the highest mountain.
The Immortal Swallowing Beast was alarmed, and this sound was a declaration of war for it.
The ferocious beasts surrounding Xiaohuo were all intimidated by the powerful aura at this moment, and they prostrated themselves on the ground, not daring to move.
At this time, the Immortal Swallowing Beast also let out a roar, and then above the sky, a huge shadow moved, and Xiaohuo roared again.
Rumble.
Its stature continued to skyrocket, and the flames on its body were already as fierce as the sun, even completely surpassing the might of Laojun's heaven and earth pill furnace before.
This is the ultimate that the flame can achieve.
At this moment, Xiao Huo's figure was almost the same as that of the Immortal Swallowing Beast in the sky. It knew that this battle was inevitable, and it was either life or death.
There is no way out.
So Xiaohuo jumped up suddenly, jumped onto the highest mountain, and the next moment, he directly started fighting with the swallowing beast.
"It's started!" In the distance, Lao Jun looked excited, with three points of anticipation and seven points of worry, watching intently, while Lin Jin's expression next to him was much calmer.
He has done what he should do, and just now, Lin Jin gave his all and passed his own power to Xiaohuo through the blood contract.
As for who wins and who loses, Lin Jin doesn't know.
The Immortal Swallowing Beast is still powerful, but after more than seven years of training and promotion, Xiaohuo is actually only a hair away from the ninth level, or to some extent, Xiaohuo is the ninth level.
It's just that the Dao of Heaven can only accommodate a ninth-rank beast, which is why Xiaohuo has been unable to advance. That is to say, the swallowing beast is actually the last hurdle on the way for Xiaohuo to advance to the ninth rank.
After defeating the Immortal Swallowing Beast, Xiaohuo is the only beast of the ninth rank.
This level of battle, not to mention Lin Jin, even the old gentleman in his heyday couldn't get in his hands, so the old and the young sat on the top of the hill, watching the fight, commenting.
And this battle clearly determines whether the world will live or die, whether the common people will live or die, and it will determine the fate of everyone.
"The earth is really shaking. Xiaohuo's blow is enough to easily kill the Xiaoyao Immortal. It's really powerful, powerful!" The old man looked very excited, and turned his head to look at Lin Jin. Sleep soundly.
"At this time, you can actually sleep?" Laojun was stunned, but Lin Jin said vaguely: "Seven years, I can't sleep with my eyes closed, Laojun, aren't you sleepy?"
Laojun was taken aback for a moment, he was really sleepy.
Looking at the earth-shattering confrontation over there every time they hit each other, Laojun laughed: "Sleepy, of course sleepy, okay, I'll lie down for a while too."
After speaking, he really lay on the side.
After a while, the two actually fell asleep, snoring everywhere, and dreaming wildly.
Lin Jin fell asleep because he cut off the power of the blood contract just now in order to maximize the power of Xiaohuo. Of course, the huge backlash made Lin Jin overwhelmed. If it were someone else, he would die immediately, but Lin Jin has a special physique , there is no fear of life, but a coma is unavoidable.
In this gamble, Lin Jin has given up everything he has, fighting until the last lesson, whether he can succeed now, Lin Jin can only resign himself to fate.
If it fails, the world will be destroyed, and it will be considered comfortable to die in your sleep. If it succeeds, then it's okay to go to bed early.
So this time, Lin Jin slept very soundly, as if he had returned to his previous life in his dream, met familiar people and encountered familiar things.
It was as if what was in the dream was reality, and everything before it was just a yellow beam dream.
In the world of the previous life, Lin Jin continued to live the life of ordinary people, day after day, year after year, Lin Jin no longer knew whether it was a dream or reality.
After an unknown amount of time, when Lin Jin was wandering in the street, he suddenly heard someone calling him.
"Lin Xiaoyou, we succeeded!"
