Chapter 759: Retiring After Winning Merit

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Rank 5 was the highest rank for beast appraisers. Ever since the founding of the beast appraisal profession, this was the highest rank achievable for beast appraisers.

And now, Lin Jin attained it.

However, Lin Jin didn’t think it amounted to much. His beast appraisal skills had long exceeded Rank 5 standard so this official title was only for vanity purposes.

Lin Jin didn’t care, but Jade Dragon Kingdom did.

A Rank 5 beast appraiser!

How many premium countries in the mainlands had Rank 5 beast appraisers?

Not many.

With this, not only did Jade Dragon Kingdom have Rank 5 guardian beasts, but they also had a Rank 5 beast appraiser. These achievements suddenly turned them into a leading premium country.

For the entire day, He Qian’s smile never faded from his face.

As for Lin Jin, he cared more about expanding Jade Dragon Kingdom’s Beast Appraisal Association. He Qian had given him full support on this and supplied him with everything he asked for.

Scale-wise, he had redivided a large piece of land in Jade Dragon City, and the total area was much bigger than the royal palace. Once construction work was complete, the place could even compete with Heavenly Spiral Academy.

Lin Jin wanted to build an institution as well. He thought of it as a contribution to Jade Dragon Kingdom’s Beast Appraisal Association.

In the two weeks after Jade Dragon Kingdom had become a premium country, more famous appraisers came for Lin Jin’s reputation.

For this reason, each and every day Lin Jin gave lectures in headquarters, the place would be packed with audiences.

He ended up staying in the royal capital for more than a month and knew he couldn’t delay his plans anymore.

He still had to make a trip back to Maple City. Maple City was still under reconstruction work, and it might take at least two or three years to fully rebuild the city.

After informing his friends and family, Lin Jin was ready to travel.

Not many people knew about his travel plan to the Nine-Heaven Realm. Only a few direct connections of his knew about it. The Nine-Heaven Realm was also much more dangerous than the extraterritorial land as it was the place of residence for the immortal devouring beast.

For this reason, he didn’t bring many companions with him.

Aside from the hybrid beast who surrendered to him, there was also Cai Die.

After all, she was the guide.

According to Cai Die, ever since her escape, she had never returned, nor dared to return to the Nine-Heaven Realm. If Lin Jin hadn’t requested it, she wouldn’t go back at all.

Because the immortal devouring beast wasn’t the only threat there.

Lin Jin didn’t leave without worries. The Beast Deity Cult’s leader and Patriarch Xue Pao were still in hiding after their escape and they were sure to be cultivating somewhere.

No doubt, these two individuals proved to be a huge threat, so if they invaded Jade Dragon Kingdom again, that would be troublesome.

For this, Lin Jin made preparations.

To be more specific, he laid down traps.

He had Shu Xiaolou paint a Divine Cloud Passage in Jade Dragon City and Maple City so they were linked to the Unending Nature Landscape. Then, the other end of the Unending Nature Landscape was linked to the extraterritorial land.

If the Beast Deity Cult’s leader and Patriarch Xue Pao attacked, Inferno Monk, Miao Yan Zhenren, and the other immortals could counter them. Since the enemy wouldn’t reveal themselves openly, they would surely use the black clouds again. When that happens, Inferno Monk and Miao Yan Zhenren could come out and fight too.

Lin Jin made an estimation and felt that the enemy duo couldn’t compare to Inferno Monk and Miao Yan Zhenren.

If they did actually come across each other, the cult leader and Patriarch Xue Pao would definitely lose.

Everything was in place now.

Early one morning, Lin Jin came out alone with a colorful butterfly fluttering beside him. Then, Lin Jin summoned a cloud and flew away.

Two days later, at Mount Yuntian in the South Sea.

Lin Jin flew up until he reached the mountain’s summit.

The height of this mountain made it fitting for it to be deemed an endless mountain.

It was Lin Jin’s first time seeing such a tall mountain. Standing on the summit, all he could see below was a sea of clouds.

Cai Die turned into her human form and said, “Appraiser Lin, this place used to be called ‘Heaven’s Passage’. It leads into the Nine-Heaven Realm and you don’t have to build a cloud bridge.”

Building cloud bridges was a high-leveled immortal skill.

Not everyone knew how to perform it mainly because they couldn’t learn it. Even in the past, only a scarce few immortal officials knew how to make one.

However, Cai Die had learned it because she overheard a distinguished immortal official mention it in the rear garden. Brilliant as she was, she secretly memorized the technique and managed to practice it with her superb comprehension abilities, successfully learning the skill.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to come down in the first place.

Lin Jin couldn’t enter the Nine-Heaven Realm without it either.

“Please wait a moment, Appraiser Lin. I will build the cloud bridge now.” Cai Die bowed before going on to invoke a spell. This would take some time.

Lin Jin invoked a spell of his own and blood began to gather before him until a piece of flesh appeared.

It was the hybrid beast.

Lin Jin had been researching the creature whenever he had time lately and learned many things about it. One was that the hybrid beast could reincarnate endlessly.

So long as the core, the piece of Heaven’s Foundation Stone fragment, was there, even if the creature was shattered into pieces, it could still regenerate.

This equated to having an indestructible body.

Along with its half-immortal-level strength, it was surely a powerful ally.

Moments later, Cai Die was done with her spell and a cloud bridge appeared.

It was Lin Jin’s first time seeing a cloud bridge that led into the Nine-Heaven Realm. The stunning bridge was at least ten thousand feet long and extended far into the void. It looked like a fairyland with clouds surrounding it.

Cai Die’s forehead was covered in sweat. This spell clearly exhausted a lot of energy to invoke.

However, as she still had to continue showing Lin Jin the way, she couldn’t leave just yet. Cai Die was obviously apprehensive about returning to the Nine-Heaven Realm, but for the sake of extending Mr. Zhou’s life for another ten years, she had to go.

Lin Jin was quite impressed by her determination. After all, not many girls were willing to risk their lives for romance.

Truth be told, if he didn’t need her guidance, Lin Jin wouldn’t want Cai Die to tag along either. Her cultivation level was far below his and she would be most at risk after entering the Nine-Heaven Realm.

Lin Jin was now walking on the bridge with Cai Die following beside him. The hybrid beast walked ahead of them.

Having an indestructible body, it was most suited for the frontlines.

Lin Jin actually felt a sense of familiarity as he walked on this unusual cloud bridge.

It felt much like the Divine Cloud Passage Shu Xiaolou painted to get around the Unending Nature Landscape. A peculiar thought came to Lin Jin’s mind. The Nine-Heaven Realm and Unending Nature Landscape looked so similar, so what exactly was the Nine-Heaven Realm?

He turned around to see that Mount Yuntian was now a blur, as if after stepping onto the bridge, they had entered another world.

Back then, Lin Jin could enter a realm that was oddly similar to this state. He could also see the Nine-Heaven Realm and obtain an immortal beast’s blood sample from it.

However, he could only watch it from afar. This time, he was actually entering the realm, so the difference was quite significant.

“Let’s go!” Lin Jin retracted his gaze and continued forward, walking along the cloud bridge to enter the Nine-Heaven Realm..
