Without its handler, the elephant instinctively fled into the distance. Lin Jin didn't stop it. There was no one in the surrounding ten miles so the elephant could do whatever it wanted.
Leaping down from the elephant, Lin Jin looked incredibly confident.
When Zuo Wentang and the others saw this, Zuo Wentang was overjoyed. Now that Lin Jin had chased after them, they wouldn't have to fight anymore.
Especially when the three people on the elephant were defeated in the blink of an eye. They were either paralyzed or fell from the sky. It was as if they were crushing dry weeds.
'Brother Lin, you're really something, 'Zuo Wentang mused.
He didn't get a good look but he was sure that the three people on the elephant were no weaker than this leopard monster. This further proved how powerful Lin Jin was.
Tilly was also staring at Lin Jin with wide eyes, curiosity and a hint of admiration in her gaze.
Now, only the leopard monster was left.
After Lin Jin landed on the ground, he turned to the leopard monster. The latter stared back at Lin Jin with a pair of beastly eyes, filled with wariness and fear.
Beasts were naturally more sensitive than humans and monsters were even more so. Lin Jin didn't hold back anymore. The aura of Xiao Huo's Dharma body and his own cultivation rippled out, pressuring the leopard monster.
It bared its teeth and roared but didn't dare to attack again.
At the end of the day, it was just a Rank 3 monster. Even if it knew some spells, it was nothing to Lin Jin. With Xiao Huo's strength, he could easily crush it.
Meanwhile, Lin Jin was curious about this leopard monster.
He was curious about how the three Grassy Continent natives were able to control this shapeshifting monster.
Lin Jin couldn't tell the specifics so he flicked his finger and shot out a needle. As sharp as the leopard monster was, it dodged it swiftly.
However, Lin Jin flicked out three more needles. This time, the leopard monster couldn't avoid them but it used some kind of supernatural power to harden its fur as hard as steel.
The needles only managed to pierce through halfway before the leopard could no longer penetrate its skin.
Lin Jin wasn't trying to hurt it. He just wanted to use the needles to evaluate the monster.
Information about the leopard monster appeared in the Museum of Deadly Beasts.
Everything else was within Lin Jin's expectations, including the beast's rank. However, there was something special about this leopard demon.
"Slave seal?"
Lin Jin stared blankly at those two words.
Even in the Museum of Deadly Beasts, these two words carried an indescribable power. Evidently, the person who left behind these two words was no ordinary person.
It wasn't Lin Jin's first time hearing about this.
He had studied a lot of books on beasts, and the Museum of Deadly Beasts also had a lot of related books. Among them, there was information on slave seals.
Slave seal was a supernatural spell used by ancient immortals to control monsters. Speaking of which, it was the origin of pet beasts. However, it was said to have been lost due to the passage of time. Anyway, this was Lin Jin's first time seeing it.
It was Lin Jin's first time seeing such a legendary item so he was naturally intrigued. With a thought, the museum displayed the details regarding the 'slave seal'.
For example, there were several ways to neutralize it. Coincidentally, the first one Lin Jin came across was the Yin Yang Spell Negation incantation. Spell Negation was something Lin Jin had studied in the Friar Association. It was one of the few spells he had mastered.
Back during the Friar Association's disciple tournament, Lin Jin used this Spell Negation to neutralize Yang Jie's beast king fusion. This incantation seemed to be tailor-made for Lin Jin.
Moreover, he had to have a Yin Yang Dharma body to cast it.
Of course, Lin Jin was curious. Out of curiosity, he tried it out.
However, he did not expect the Yin Yang Spell Breaker Spell to succeed on his first try. In an instant, an invisible wave of energy surged out of the Museum of Deadly Beasts. This wave of energy surged into the body of the leopard demon inside the museum. Then, with a cracking sound, it was as if something was broken.
Looking at the leopard monster's information, the two words' slave seal 'had shattered and dissipated.
Stunned, Lin Jin quickly used his psyche to look outside. Rays of light were emitting from the leopard monster's body as if a shackle had been removed. Something seemed to be pulled out from the leopard monster's head before shattering and vanishing.
The leopard monster's eyes glowed with excitement. The ferocity and murderous intent he had before was nowhere to be seen.
Then, the leopard monster took a few steps forward and knelt before Lin Jin.
"Thank you, Immortal Master, for breaking my slave seal. I am eternally grateful. Please accept my kowtow." Having said that, he kowtowed three times.
Truth be told, Lin Jin was dumbfounded.
He had never planned on breaking the leopard monster's seal. This was all a misunderstanding. He was only trying out the Yin Yang Spell Negation and it turned out to be a coincidence.
But what was done was done. Now, it seemed like the leopard monster was being controlled by these Grassy Continent natives because of the slave seal. Now that the seal was broken, it seemed like they wouldn't be enemies anymore.
This could be considered a good thing, accumulating merit.
Lin Jin knew the reason so despite his surprise, he remained calm and composed. However, Zuo Wentang and the others were different.
They were all dumbfounded.
This scene was truly shocking. Zuo Wentang and Tilly knew better than anyone how terrifying and capable the leopard monster was. Yet, at the sight of Lin Jin, such a terrifying monster had knelt before Lin Jin before he could even make a move.
Something had clearly happened to the leopard monster earlier. The strange marks and shadows that appeared on its body were obviously some kind of advanced spell.
In short, neither Zuo Wentang nor Tilly understood the specifics. But what they did know was that Lin Jin must have some kind of amazing skill. Somehow, he had helped the leopard monster and that was why it had knelt before him in gratitude.
From this alone, it could be seen that Lin Jin's supernatural powers were quite impressive.
Zuo Wentang and Tilly didn't dare to say anything. Qu Wenji hurried over to Zuo Wentang's side and held his hand tightly.
"Wentang, are you alright?" Qu Wenji asked gently.
Zuo Wentang patted the back of Qu Wenji's hand, indicating that he was fine.
Tilly rolled her eyes and shuffled a few steps away.
However, this western beauty's large eyes hadn't left Lin Jin since the beginning.
To be able to defeat King Yan and the others in the blink of an eye and subdue the leopard monster so easily, making it kneel before him willingly wasn't something an average person could do.
In Tilly's heart, she was extremely impressed.
Meanwhile, Lin Jin glanced at the kneeling leopard monster and mused, 'This leopard's name is Linbao, sharing the same surname as me. What a coincidence.'
Perhaps it was fate that allowed him to unintentionally break the slave imprint on the other party's body.
Suddenly, Lin Jin sensed something and looked up. Up in the sky, he saw the ball of light that had emerged from the leopard monster condensing into an eye.
A gigantic eye was currently staring at Lin Jin. Lin Jin stared back at it.
A moment later, the eye disappeared.
Lin Jin frowned.
In the end, he sighed helplessly.
"What a loss!"
Lin Jin mumbled to himself.
Indeed, it was a loss.
He had unintentionally broken the leopard monster's slave seal but who knew that he would end up provoking another problem.
That eye just now wasn't formed naturally. Presumably, it was some kind of existence that was observing the situation here through the remnant spell of the slave imprint.
Someone who could do this was no ordinary person.
It was a pity that the other party only took a glance before leaving. Or rather, the spell could only last for a short while. Otherwise, Lin Jin would have wanted to talk to the other party and explain things to him.
But it seemed like he wouldn't get the chance.
If his guess was right, the other party must have seen what was going on here. At the very least, they knew who had broken the slave seal. If it was a broad-minded person, they wouldn't mind. But if it was a narrow-minded person, things might not be the same.
