Beast Tamer Ascension

Vol 2 Chapter 110: The Squirrel Was His Trump Card All Along!

The Pine Leaf Mouse was simply too small. For most demonic beasts, the stronger their bloodline, the larger their body.

Moreover, its cultivation level was too low— only at the Early Foundation Establishment Stage.

Everyone's understanding of this squirrel was limited to its mysterious spatial abilities. Without those, Lin Jing would’ve struggled to defeat Yan Xiangbei.

Though its space manipulation had been the key to turning the tides, the real factor that had forced Yan Xiangbei into a desperate situation had been Lin Jing’s bizarre mechanized construct.

Now, without that terrifying firepower and defense, Lin Jing’s strength had, in the eyes of the crowd, dropped significantly. Was he planning to break through the Indestructible Immortal Gang with a mere Diamond Fist? Impossible.

"That squirrel spirit’s appearance is rather peculiar," some cultivators noted. Unlike ordinary squirrel spirits, this one had ears and a tail that resembled plant structures.

"It’s certainly unusual. Then again, if it weren’t special, no ordinary squirrel spirit could possibly learn spatial techniques."

There were too many strange demonic beasts in the world, so the cultivators didn't dwell on the Pine Leaf Mouse’s plant-like characteristics. Among the geniuses, Mo Qianyi murmured, "Is Lin Jing planning to use that squirrel spirit to break through the Indestructible Immortal Gang?"

"If it had a space-tearing technique, it might be possible," Yan Xiangbei muttered to himself. "But its spatial abilities are still rudimentary at best. During my fight with Lin Jing, I realized too late that the squirrel’s spatial techniques require a medium to activate. At that level, it can’t possibly execute an offensive spatial attack."

Unfortunately, the pressure during battle had been too overwhelming for Yan Xiangbei to notice the red leaf in time. If he had, he might have changed the outcome.

Now, everyone was waiting to see how Lin Jing planned to use a mere Foundation Establishment squirrel spirit to break through an Indestructible Immortal Gang supported by the Spring Source Physique.

And that wasn't even all Zhao Qingquan had.

On the arena platform, Zhao Qingquan waved a single hand. Outside the protective Immortal Gang, a colossal sword formed purely from true essence emerged in the sky, radiating the ferocious power of the White Tiger. The sword's presence was overwhelming, and as it descended, many in the audience gasped in recognition.

It was one of the Zhao Family’s top-tier offensive techniques— the White Tiger Divine Sword!

Under Zhao Qingquan’s control, the massive sword plummeted toward Lin Jing and the Pine Leaf Mouse.

The pressure it exerted was immense, far more terrifying than even the murderous aura of the Assassins’ Tower genius.

Most assumed that Lin Jing would use spatial techniques to evade the attack.

But then— something completely unexpected happened.

The Pine Leaf Mouse, rather than retreating, leapt from Lin Jing’s shoulder and landed on the arena floor, standing firm against the overwhelming pressure.

Then— its body began to expand at an unimaginable speed!

As it grew, a mysterious wooden material spread across its body. This material continued to grow and pulse with an exaggerated vitality, as though a divine tree was sprouting from within the Pine Leaf Mouse!

BOOM!

In an instant, its size increased to over a hundred meters tall, its massive form towering over the arena.

The Pine Leaf Mouse had transformed into a colossal squirrel, its entire body seemingly composed of ancient, living wood!

The Squirrel Colossus still resembled its pre-evolution form, but now, its body was covered in branches, and those branches bore countless pinecones, making it look like a divine tree merged with a demonic beast.

It was no longer a flesh-and-blood creature, but a being of plant life!

Its entire lifeform had changed!

"What the—?!"

The transformation was so rapid that the audience barely had time to react. They could only gape as, in its giant wooden hands, the Pine Leaf Mouse caught the White Tiger Divine Sword— and then, with a crisp snap, broke it in half.

Zhao Qingquan's pupils contracted sharply.

That White Tiger Divine Sword was a technique capable of challenging Core Formation cultivators— and the squirrel had just shattered it with ease!

And then, an even more terrifying scene unfolded.

A third eye opened on the Pine Leaf Mouse’s forehead— its Pinecone Third Eye!

From that eye, pure life force condensed into a beam of radiant white light, which blasted straight toward Zhao Qingquan inside the Indestructible Immortal Gang.

BOOM!

A deafening explosion shook the arena, sending a massive cloud of smoke and debris into the air.

As the smoke cleared, everyone saw that several layers of the Indestructible Immortal Gang had been destroyed.

Within what remained of the Immortal Gang, Zhao Qingquan stood, his expression frozen in shock.

That attack… had breached his defenses?!

And that squirrel… was still only at the Foundation Establishment Stage?!

Zhao Qingquan took a deep breath, forcefully stabilizing his defenses.

But then—

Lin Jing, standing atop the Squirrel Colossus, smiled slightly.

"Not bad. As expected of the Innate Spring Source Physique," Lin Jing said. "But… can you withstand this next attack?"

Golden Buddhist light surged around Lin Jing’s body.

The audience gasped as, from the Squirrel Colossus’s back, a hundred enormous wooden arms sprouted, each radiating a divine golden glow.

Some of the hands clenched into fists.

Others spread into open palms.

Each radiated a sacred power comparable to a Core Formation cultivator!

Under the golden light, the Squirrel Colossus looked like a divine Buddhist statue!

But Lin Jing was not the only one with a Buddhist affinity— the monks of the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda had granted both him and his Pine Leaf Mouse a Buddhist talent.

Now, by activating the seventh layer of the Beast Taming Art, Lin Jing was able to transfer his Buddhist power to his Pine Leaf Mouse— allowing it to merge this energy with its overwhelming wood-element control to create a fusion technique.

Hundred-Armed Demon Buddha Statue!

A combined ultimate move— executed by Lin Jing, the Beast Tamer, and his Pine Leaf Mouse!

Zhao Qingquan's jaw slackened.

An ominous feeling welled up inside him.

He instantly activated his Hidden Dragon Secret Technique, temporarily boosting his cultivation from Perfected Foundation Establishment to Early Core Formation.

But—

Too late.

A hundred golden Diamond Fist palms rained down upon the Indestructible Immortal Gang.

One strike. Two strikes. Three. A hundred. A thousand!

Under the relentless barrage, the Indestructible Immortal Gang began to shatter and reform at an alarming pace.

The battle had turned into a terrifying contest of offense and defense, causing the watching geniuses to instinctively hold their breath.

The Pine Leaf Mouse’s attack speed was simply too fast.

Having mastered the Everlasting Emperor's Longevity Art, it possessed the power of a Core Formation-level plant spirit.

But unlike a Core Formation wood cultivator, a plant spirit did not manipulate external plants— its own body was the plant!

Thus, the Hundred-Armed Buddha Statue was as easy for it to control as a natural extension of its limbs.

After an uncountable number of blows—

The Pine Leaf Mouse finally ceased its assault.

The arena lay in ruins.

Zhao Qingquan’s Indestructible Immortal Gang had been completely destroyed.

He lay at the bottom of a massive crater, surrounded by rubble, his pupils blank and unfocused, his mouth frozen in disbelief.

Zhao Qingquan had lost.

Even Chen Zhong took a deep breath, his gaze snapping toward Lin Jing atop the Squirrel Colossus.

"This… is a Demon King True Form?! At this level, its bloodline rivals a Royal Dragon Cub!"

The audience fell silent.

Then—

The arena erupted with shouts of astonishment!
