Truth be told, it wouldn't be a problem if Lin Jin wanted to fight. But if he were to use his best spell and pet beast, people would easily associate him with Lin Jin.
After all, Curator and Lin Jin were the same person.
Other than the Vulcan Edict, all other spells would leave traces of Lin Jin, especially his pet beast. With Curator's status, he couldn't let him out. Even an idiot would be suspicious if he let Xiao Huo out.
Lin Jin could ignore the previous opponents, but this one was clearly out to kill him. While Lin Jin was fretting over this, Zhao Jingyan made her move.
As the chief commander of Phoenix Palace, Zhao Jingyan's strength was unquestionable.
She was a skilled spellcaster to begin with and had received the legacy of Phoenix Palace. As for her pet beast, it was definitely worthy of being called a divine beast, a Rank 5 phoenix that had undergone Nirvana. From what Lin Jin could tell, it was only stronger than Xiao Huo.
At this moment, the phoenix whizzed past and clashed with the zombie dragon. In the blink of an eye, they were locked in a stalemate.
Seeing this, Corpse Dao couldn't help but ask, "Phoenix Palace, you're the chief commander of Phoenix Palace, Zhao Jingyan? I have no grudge against Phoenix Palace so why are you here to help Curator fight me? "
Zhao Jingyan was clearly powerful. The dragon and phoenix were locked in battle. However, Corpse Dao had a bad feeling about this. After all, Curator hadn't made a move yet.
Instantly, Corpse Dao's expression darkened. He couldn't help but ask.
Zhao Jingyan's answer was simple and direct. "Curator's problem is Phoenix Palace's problem."
Simply put, Phoenix Palace was completely on Curator's side.
"Hmph, do you think I'm afraid of Phoenix Palace?" Seeing how determined Zhao Jingyan was to help, Corpse Dao steeled his resolve.
Regular dragons might not be able to deal with Phoenix Palace's phoenix, but this was a hundred-year-old zombie dragon. It wasn't even afraid of phoenix fire.
Corpse Dao cast an enhancement spell and the zombie dragon's aura of death permeated the air. Sharp bone spikes grew down the dragon's spine, increasing the dragon's strength by another thirty percent.
The phoenix was starting to feel strained.
Although Zhao Jingyan was also casting an enhancement spell, Corpse Dao was clearly stronger than her.
"Curator, since you don't care about the fairer sex, I will kill this woman and her phoenix first, then I will eat you alive." The corpse sneered and moved immediately.
However, seeing that Zhao Jingyan was at a disadvantage, Shang'er had already made her move. Not only her, Shu Xiaolou also came forward and attacked the corpse cultivator.
Among these three women, one was a human being, one was a spirit painting, and one was a spirit painting. In terms of power, they were all among the most powerful beings in the world. Therefore, when they made their moves, they immediately stopped Corpse Dao's attack.
Meanwhile, Lin Jin had become a bystander.
'Seems like I don't have to do anything, 'Lin Jin thought as he observed the situation.
That was a good thing.
With Lin Jin's identity, he could do whatever he wanted and summon Xiao Huo to borrow the power of the ghost-blood beast. However, he had to be more cautious when he was disguised as the Curator.
This also served as a warning to Lin Jin.
If he still wanted to use Curator's identity to show his face, he had to get his hands on a few spells or pet beasts. Otherwise, it would be easy to deal with the average person, but against someone like Corpse Dao, it would be hard not to expose himself.
Spells were easy. After reading Daolord's Heavenly Book, Lin Jin had memorized a few powerful spells. He only needed to comprehend and cultivate them before he could use them.
Pet beasts were easy too. Raising a monster was enough.
However, he still had to get through this crisis.
Truth be told, Lin Jin thought this corpse cultivator was pretty stupid. Perhaps because of his zombie brain, his mind had become rigid?
To think that he was so stupid, or rather, arrogant, that he thought he could kill Lin Jin in Tianxuan City.
Was this a joke?
The people from Tianxuan Academy would never agree to this. Not to mention, Shu Xiaolou was here as well. With a wave of Shu Xiaolou's arm, even Emperor Tianxuan would have to join the battle.
This was something the corpse cultivator didn't understand. Perhaps he knew but was blinded by anger. Perhaps he was fearless because he had the zombie dragon.
"Alright. Today, I'll let you know what it means to have three helpers." Lin Jin flipped his finger and an ink seal appeared on his fingertip.
This was Cosmos Ink that Lin Jin condensed himself.
In terms of usage of Cosmos Ink, Lin Jin paled in comparison to Shu Xiaolou. Shu Xiaolou was an expert and had mastered it while Lin Jin was just a beginner.
However, it was still possible to teleport food within a short distance.
Although the corpse cultivator had used the deathly gray cloud to isolate the area and prevent others from coming in to help, it couldn't stop Cosmos Ink.
Suddenly, the door behind Lin Jin opened. In an instant, he saw someone outside and was secretly delighted.
"He's here!"
Lin Jin extended his hand and tapped the air. The ink seal was immediately injected into the deathly gray cloud. It pierced through the cloud and stuck itself onto the attendant outside.
Before the attendant could react, the Cosmos Ink teleported him to Lin Jin's side.
"Black Tortoise, now that this corpse cultivator has invaded Merak, you can't just sit back and do nothing," Lin Jin said with a smile. "Just think of it as doing me a favor."
The attendant was stunned at first but when he got a clear look at his surroundings, he burst into laughter. "Curator, you sure have friends all over the world. Not only Senior Shu, but even Phoenix Palace is doing their best to help. Since that's the case, I might as well help you out."
A demonic aura emanated from the attendant's body.
His demonic aura was different from others.
It was the magnificent Zhenzhen, and there was a kind of divine dao aura inside.
What was originally the attendant's appearance was now transformed by the demonic aura into a giant tortoise the size of a mountain.
This was the Black Tortoise.
To Lin Jin, this Black Tortoise was probably half a step into Rank 6. Shang'er definitely couldn't compare to him. Even Shu Xiaolou was no match for this Black Tortoise in terms of combat strength.
Lin Jin felt that tricking Merak's guardian monster into helping him was much more impressive than if he were to do it himself.
He might have been at a disadvantage earlier, but with the Black Tortoise here and the others, the corpse cultivator's chances were slim.
Lin Jin had been observing the battle from a distance so he could see everything clearly.
"As expected of a monster!" Lin Jin was exasperated when he saw the Black Tortoise suppress the zombie dragon and force the corpse cultivator to retreat. He couldn't help but exclaim inwardly.
Amazing.
This was normal. To be able to become Merak's guardian beast and protect Emperor Merak all this time, his status was extraordinary. This monster must have played a huge role in Merak's rise to power. Hence, to a certain extent, the Black Tortoise represented Merak's strongest combat power.
How could the corpse cultivator possibly be a match for it?
The outcome of the battle had been decided.
No matter how exasperated the corpse cultivator was, he now understood that he had lost the upper hand. He realized that he had miscalculated from the start. He thought that no matter how powerful the curator was, he could still kill the enemy with so many experts.
Yet, to his surprise, the curator didn't even need to make a proper move. His friend alone was enough to stop the corpse cultivator.
