It was a good plan and he managed to convince the Beast God's cult master once again.
"Alright, Ancestor Xue Pao, I'll trust you one more time. However, I'll say the ugly words first. If something goes wrong again, I won't ask for your opinion on what to do next. Do you understand? Also, since my vice cult master is dead, you shall be my vice cult master. "
Patriarch Xue Pao agreed.
He had no choice. He still needed Xue Pao's help so they couldn't afford to fall out so soon.
Moreover, if it weren't for the Beast God's Ghost Cage, Patriarch Xue Pao wouldn't have dared to come out from underground.
Hence, they waited patiently.
Even if they were drowned, they wouldn't understand.
Because with their cultivation and strength, it wouldn't be difficult for them to sleep in the depths of the ocean.
"Now, it all depends on who's more patient. Seeing that we're not going out, Lin Jin must think that we're at a critical juncture in using Immortal Du Scripture. Knowing him, he'll most likely charge in. When that happens, hmph …" Patriarch Xue Pao said to reassure them.
By now, the entire Daluo Temple was submerged in water. However, before Lin Jin could charge in, Patriarch Xue Pao and the Beast God's cult master were greeted by the Purple Thunder Needle.
Purple lightning was much faster and more powerful in a medium that was more suitable for transmission, such as water.
This meant that neither Patriarch Xue Pao, the Beast God's cult master, nor the two Hollow Immortals had time to react before the purple lightning struck them.
Patriarch Xue Pao cursed in pain. Unable to hold it in any longer, he leaped up and tried to block the lightning but it wasn't that easy.
The Beast God's cult master was in a similar situation. Just as Lin Jin predicted, even a True Immortal expert would have to suffer.
"Why does this purple lightning have the power of a True Immortal?" The Beast God's cult master was puzzled. He was a True Immortal expert after all. Although he had suffered quite a bit this time, he was still far from being able to kill him.
Patriarch Xue Pao was having a hard time too. "That Lin Jin can't be a True Immortal. This can only mean that the lightning he's using was refined by a True Immortal. Where did this kid get so many treasures?"
"This is bad!" The Lord of the Beast God Church reacted and hurriedly checked on the condition of his three subordinates. With one look, he was fuming with anger.
The Purple Thunder was refined by a Perfected Immortal and carried the Qi of a Perfected Immortal. Cultivators like Patriarch Xue Pao and Perfected Immortals like the Master of the Beast God Cult could resist it, but to ordinary Hollow Immortals, the Purple Thunder on the Purple Thunder Divine Needle was too powerful and hard to resist.
At this moment, the remaining three Void Immortals of the Beast God Sect were already convulsing from being electrocuted. All of them rolled their eyes and died sullenly.
No matter what, they were Immortals. However, under the Purple Thunder Divine Needle personally refined by Reverend Miaoyan, they could not even withstand a single round. Especially with the combination of water and electricity, its power multiplied, so they were directly electrocuted to death.
The Beast God Pope's murderous aura surged.
He broke down.
In the beginning, there were nine immortals in the Beast God Sect and they were extremely powerful. Initially, he had finally found a way to control the black fog and thought that he could return to the world and become the new Immortal Emperor to control the entire Middle Earth.
But who would have thought that this would be such a bad start? His subordinates had all died right from the start.
Not a single one was left.
With this, didn't this mean that he, the Master of the Beast God Sect, had no followers?
"Patriarch Xue Pao, what's going on?" In a fit of rage, the Beast God Pope began questioning Patriarch Xue Pao. After all, Patriarch Xue Pao was the one who came up with this plan. Now that things had gone awry, the Beast God Pope had to ask Patriarch Xue Pao for an explanation.
The problem was, Patriarch Xue Pao couldn't explain himself.
There was nothing he could say either.
This was clearly Lin Jin's fault for being too cunning to use such a method to trick them. However, they had clearly set up a trap for Lin Jin to fall into. But in the end, they ended up falling into Lin Jin's trap instead.
What else could they say?
"Master, this is all because Lin Jin is too cunning. He must have seen through our plan and used it against us, that's why …"
"I don't care. I want Lin Jin dead. I'm going to kill him right now." In his rage, the Beast God Pope couldn't care less and charged out of the water. However, Lin Jin had already escaped from the black fog. No matter how angry the Beast God Pope was, he knew that if he dashed out of the black fog, the Rank 9 immortal-devouring beast would kill him before he could even kill Lin Jin.
Patriarch Xue Pao flew out of the water as well. Looking around at the vast expanse of water, he couldn't find Lin Jin's shadow. Just as he guessed, Lin Jin had escaped.
"Why is this kid so cunning?" Patriarch Xue Pao gritted his teeth in anger. But instead of thinking about this, he would rather worry about his current predicament.
He did not have a good relationship with the Lord of the Beast God Church. Previously, when the Lord of the Beast God Church came to his rescue, it was only because Patriarch Xue Pao had discovered traces of the Beast God Church's activities and took the initiative to contact him. That was how the Lord of the Beast God Church had helped him.
Later on, Patriarch Xue Pao managed to get some benefits from the Beast God Pope. But now, the situation was clearly off. Two consecutive plans had gone awry. He could still fool the Beast God Pope the first time, but he definitely couldn't this time. Other than the Beast God Pope, everyone else was dead.
Now that he thought about it, it felt like a dream.
Eight immortals, one of whom was a physical immortal, were all killed by Lin Jin in just a few short days. This was unbelievable.
Judging by the Beast God Pope's current state, he was on the verge of breaking down. He might even vent his anger on Patriarch Xue Pao.
Patriarch Xue Pao had to be careful.
Speaking of which, Patriarch Xue Pao had a trump card up his sleeve. He came to Daluo Temple this time to borrow the Immortal Du Sutra to deal with Lin Jin. He claimed that the Immortal Du Sutra couldn't actually expel the immortal's corpse from his body. With that, the Beast God Pope wouldn't think too much about it.
After all, if he really did expel the immortal's corpse, the Beast God Pope would definitely be suspicious.
Then, he could leave the black mist and no longer be restricted.
But that wasn't the case. The Immortal Du Sutra was indeed useful, but it wasn't used to expel the immortal's corpse. In fact, this immortal's corpse couldn't be expelled, it could only be suppressed.
The Immortal Du Sutra's function was to suppress it.
Once suppressed, the immortal's aura could be concealed. This was also what Patriarch Xue Pao was trying to hide.
Now that the Beast God Pope was the only one left and he was emotional, Patriarch Xue Pao had to consider his escape route. Now that the Immortal Du Sutra was in his hands, he had a choice.
If the situation could still be controlled, he would continue to stay by the Beast God Pope's side. If the Beast God Pope had other ideas or lost control, Patriarch Xue Pao would leave.
With the Immortal Du Sutra suppressing the immortal's corpse, he could go anywhere. The only problem was that he couldn't unleash his full cultivation or he might break through the Immortal Du Sutra's suppression. That would be troublesome.
