Having lived for a hundred thousand years, Tianzun should have firm control over his emotions. It was easy to tell from how he had managed to escape the immortal tragedy and live here peacefully. After all, even the immortal emperor had died in that catastrophe.
Hence, the old Tianzun surely wouldn’t have done something so reckless.
He only wanted to do so now because he was a mortal.
Without the restraint of desires that came with being an immortal, he couldn’t keep himself calm. Even if he had been in control for two thousand years, a mortal was still just a mortal.
After turning into a mortal, a person’s mental state would also change.
Even if Tianzun used to be a saint, he wasn’t excluded from this influence. Fortunately, he chose to take Lin Jin’s advice at last and gave up provoking the immortal devouring beast.
After calming down, he knew that Lin Jin was right.
Impossible was impossible.
Then, he turned to Lin Jin. Since the latter said it was impossible, that must mean he knew what was possible. There must be a standard involved. A standard to challenge the immortal devouring beast.
What was this standard?
Because he didn’t know, he asked. And Lin Jin duly answered him.
Tianzun later learned of the rank classifications for beasts in the mortal realm, and also that his green fish was Rank 8 while the immortal devouring beast was Rank 9.
“There is a world of difference in strength in one rank!”
Those were Lin Jin’s original words.
Tianzun nodded and then looked at the Heaven & Earth Furnace. He asked Lin Jin that if the fire wolf should succeed, what rank would it be?
Upon hearing that it would be Rank 8, Tianzun sighed.
It was Rank 8 too, so that wasn’t enough. Looks like he still had to wait.
But, no matter. Tianzun had an endless supply of life-extension pills. He had tons of ways to prolong his life until the day of revenge.
He could even wait for another two thousand years.
He would see who would win this battle of endurance.
Seeing that Tianzun had regained his composure, Lin Jin breathed a sigh of relief. He didn’t think much of it actually. It had been clear to him what Tianzun wanted to achieve because the latter had been hiding here for two thousand years, and even nurtured his green fish.
It was only because he gained tremendous improvement in strength after trying out a blood contract that Tianzun got a little impulsive. But things were fine now.
Unlike Tianzun, Lin Jin wasn’t promoting his pet beast to kill the immortal devouring beast, but was only doing so to have a means of protection. That was all.
Even if Xiao Huo successfully advanced to Rank 9, so long as the immortal devouring beast didn’t provoke him, he wouldn’t attack it on his own accord. Because Lin Jin knew that the immortal devouring beast was a phantom of the Heaven’s Foundation Stone, and the Heaven’s Foundation Stone was heaven itself, the law of nature. Challenging nature wasn’t something bound to end well.
Wasn’t the immortal emperor a good enough example?
Yet, the next instant, the skies began to change.
A beast’s roar resonated through the nine skies.
Lin Jin’s expression immediately faltered and Tianzun’s face froze too. The other immortals simply shuddered, looking frightened.
In the distant sea of clouds, they saw a massive beast shadow appear.

They had triggered the beast after all.
Lin Jin felt his scalp prickle as his senses of danger tingled. Tianzun had undoubtedly triggered the immortal devouring beast out of impulse. Now that the beast was coming, no one knew what would happen next.
“Nobody move,” Tianzun said, looking solemn. He knew it was his fault so he got up slowly, holding the water bucket in his hand, and looked at the beast head that appeared in the distance.
If the creature made any moves, Tianzun would have to transform his fish back into a dragon to fight it.
The immortal devouring beast’s head was incredibly massive that they could only see one of its eyes staring back at them.
It didn’t immediately attack because it didn’t sense the presence of immortal aura.
Yet, a confrontation of this kind only made them more anxious. They couldn’t describe the horrifying pressure, and everyone, including Lin Jin, dared not breathe too heavily. Sweat had also begun to form on Tianzun’s forehead, but unlike before, he had more confidence now.
With spell enhancements, his Rank 8 green fish could turn into a dragon and use all five elements. Its combat ability wouldn’t lose to Tianzun at the peak of his strength. In fact, it was even slightly stronger than him.
This was the source of Tianzun’s confidence.
But just as Lin Jin had said, one rank made a world of difference.
If they fought now, they would surely lose.
But Tianzun knew he couldn’t hide because he caused this incident, so he must be the one to resolve it. When push came to shove, he would have to go all out in a fight.
He couldn’t just sit and wait for death after all.
Tianzun was mentally prepared for death and the other immortals looked despaired.
Being eyed by the immortal devouring beast, they didn’t even have the courage to run. They couldn’t fight this pressure at all. As if their bodies had been turned into lead, they couldn’t even move a finger.
The Rank 9 beast’s deterrence had intimidated everyone.
This was the moment before an impending one-sided slaughter. Because whenever the immortal devouring beast appeared, that was what always happened, no exceptions.
It had been the same when the immortal emperor faced it.
Obviously, no one wanted to fight the immortal devouring beast. They all hoped that it would leave on its own, but that didn’t seem possible right now.
Because from the vast sea of clouds, the immortal devouring beast had reached out a massive claw.
Each claw on its humongous paw looked like heavenly pillars, slowly reaching toward them with an intimidating force.
Everyone felt nervous as a tragic battle seemed to be breaking out soon. Just then, Lin Jin calmly took out an amulet and activated it.
The amulet turned into a ball of flames and disappeared. Almost the same instant, the immortal devouring beast shuddered as if sensing something and immediately flew away, leaving as quickly as it came.
It actually left!
What seemed impossible actually happened.
Just what was going on?
The immortals who had been breaking out in cold sweat now fell limp on the ground. That had been such a scary, near-death experience that they had no choice but to react this way.
Tianzun breathed a sigh of relief. He put down the water bucket and turned to Lin Jin. “Mr. Lin, what was that?”
He was clearly curious about the amulet Lin Jin had just used to drive the immortal devouring beast away. After all, that was a creature that destroyed immortal cultivation, so how could it possibly obey Lin Jin?
If Lin Jin could actually command the immortal devouring beast, things would be much easier.
Lin Jin simply answered, “I’m a beast appraiser, and no matter how strong the immortal devouring beast is, it’s still a beast. All beasts have traits, and if we can grasp that, we can use them in our favor. The immortal devouring beast’s aim is to kill immortals and that is its main target, the main priority. As for mortals like us, if we don’t provoke it, it won’t come attacking us.”
After a pause, he continued, “So after coming to the Nine-Heaven Realm, I intentionally set up some traps and left imbued immortal aura in them. In case I ever come across the immortal devouring beast, I can use it to lure the beast away so I can escape any dangerous situations..”
