Vol 2 Chapter 105: Unscathed A Beast Tamer who knew Buddhist techniques and mechanized arts, yet had never actually been seen taming a beast! This was the thought running through the minds of every cultivator present. However, Lin Jing strongly disagreed with that sentiment. Strictly speaking, he wasn’t actually the pilot of the Mosquito-Powered Mech. He had merely assembled the machine using mechanized techniques, but he couldn’t control it himself. The real pilot was Pine Leaf Mouse. So, in essence, he was still taming a beast—it was just that his beast was piloting the mech! Of course, some refused to acknowledge that this mech was a mechanized construct at all. High-level mechanized constructs always contained a Soul Core, allowing a mechanist to control them with their spirit. For example, Mo Qianyi’s Celestial Shot Chariot contained a Soul Core, which she linked to her Exquisite Heart, allowing her to directly manipulate its transformations. This was somewhat similar to how a cultivator refined and activated a magic artifact, but instead of channeling Qi, a mechanist controlled it with their spirit. But this massive mech had no Soul Core—so to Yan Xiangbei, it couldn’t possibly be a mechanized construct. Lin Jing, however, disagreed. After all, Pine Leaf Mouse was controlling the mech through its spirit, much like how it controlled Red Flying Leaves. Its connection to the mech’s wooden components was entirely spiritual. If controlling a machine with one's spirit was the defining characteristic of mechanized constructs… Then why wasn’t this mech considered one?! "Take this!" Zzzzzzzzzt!!! Up until now, the Mosquito-Powered Mech had only passively defended and counterattacked. But now, as its power surged to full capacity, a massive blood-colored longsword materialized in its hand. A weapon forged entirely from blood essence! The thirty-meter-long blood blade sliced through the air, slashing toward Yan Xiangbei! Faced with this terrifying attack, Yan Xiangbei reacted instantly, summoning a mid-grade magic artifact—a miniature gate-shaped talisman. Fueled by his Divine Physique, the tiny gate expanded, forming three layers of phantom barriers in front of him. BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! The blood sword struck, tearing through the first barrier… then the second… and finally shattered the third, sending Yan Xiangbei flying backward. As he crashed onto the platform, he spat out a mouthful of blood. "One attack… it took three layers of my defenses to finally stop it?!" "This level of blood essence power surpasses ordinary Core Formation body cultivators. And the worst part… its blood energy isn’t depleting at all!" Clutching his chest, Yan Xiangbei retrieved his gate-shaped talisman and decided to switch to offense. With a flick of his wrist, he summoned a mid-grade flying sword. "Go!" Yan Xiangbei formed a hand seal, and the flying sword shot toward the mech’s chest. But then— The Mosquito-Powered Mech’s mouth suddenly opened. A violent gust of blood energy surged forth, filling the air with a nauseating crimson mist. The flying sword’s momentum slowed immediately, then was blown back, forcing Yan Xiangbei to recall it. "What the hell is this thing?!" Even with his Divine Physique, he still couldn’t enhance his mid-grade artifacts to match the sheer power of the mech! The pressure was immense. The audience had fallen into complete silence, their gazes fixed on the tiny creature piloting the massive mech. "How dare you!!" Yan Xiangbei’s eyes narrowed as his instincts screamed danger. At that moment, to everyone’s shock— The Mosquito-Powered Mech… self-destructed. Because what kind of mech wouldn’t have a self-destruct system?!

By the time the smoke cleared, Lin Jing and Pine Leaf Mouse were already hovering high above the battlefield, gazing down at the massive, fiery explosion below. A single red leaf had carried them into the sky at the perfect moment. The audience was stunned. Even the high-altitude wind currents were twisting under the sheer force of the explosion. "Well… I’d say that counts as defeating a powerful opponent without taking any damage." High above the battlefield, Lin Jing’s hair flowed in the wind as he calmly observed the aftermath. Pine Leaf Mouse wiped the sweat from its forehead, looking exhausted. Yep, totally unscathed. Except… the mech died a very tragic death.
