Chapter 1378, Qilin
Given Ye Qingyu's present cultivation base, with one thought, he was able to dispel the illusion in front of him and force the demonic thing to reveal its true form.
It also obviously felt the fear, desperately struggled to break free, but also began to create a variety of illusions in an attempt to confuse Ye Qingyu. But at this time Ye Qingyu's consciousness was incredibly steady; it was no longer possible to capture the thoughts and mind of Ye Qingyu. The illusions naturally had no effect on Ye Qingyu.
“What kind of demonic thing is this?”
Ye Qingyu’s eyes filled with violet brilliance, saw through the red mist, and right to the core, where there was a blood-shadow dragon-like creature struggling frantically. It was precisely the true form of the demonic thing, but even with Ye Qingyu's experience and knowledge, it was not clear to him what kind of creature this blood shadow is.
Could it be a creature from the Immortal Domain?
Ye Qingyu could feel that the strength of this blood shadow creature was exceptionally strong, almost at the Sovereign realm. It was precisely because of this that Nan Tieyi and Hu Bugui, who already reached the realm of the Martial Emperor were unable to stand against it. But why would a being with Sovereign realm strength be born on a fragment of the Immortal Domain was very puzzling. Logically speaking, the birth of a Martial Emperor should already be the peak, because the Sovereign realm was related to destiny.
Ye Qingyu operated the [Eyes of the Void] and observed carefully.
He found that on the blood shadow creature's body was not the slightest evil aura. Although it looked terrifying, the aura was in fact was extremely pure. There was an intense aura of immortality, and at the same time, on its body, Ye Qingyu felt a suspected familiar aura, which he seemed to have felt somewhere before.
What was even more bizarre was that Ye Qingyu found that this blood shadow creature did not seem to have too much intelligence, like a three- or five-year-old child, which did not seem to match its powerful strength.
“Could it be that the strength of natural spirits comes from innate talent, and not from practice, so it lacks intelligence?”
Ye Qingyu was puzzled.
However, this could also explain why Hu Bugui and Nan Tieyi had survived for more than two thousand years in this Immortal World and not killed by this demonic thing. It appeared that this so-called demonic thing has a child-like mind, likes to play pranks and tricks, and did not actually have a murderous nature. It probably only wanted to tease Hu Bugui and Nan Tieyi and not really kill them.
With all this in mind, Ye Qingyu had even greater interest in the demonic thing.
Because it may have something to do with the complete Immortal Domain.
At this moment, the White-boned Earth Dragon that had been very quiet all this time suddenly rushed up from the distance, looked at the imprisoned blood-coloured creature, eyes flashing intently, as he very impatiently said, “Master, I… there seems to be a blood-connection from this guy's body, it seems to be calling me…”
Ye Qingyu carefully observed, and indeed found that the blood shadow became more and more excited in seeing the appearance of Little Ten. It was emitting sharp cries and trying to struggle over to Little Ten's direction.
Little Ten tried to get closer, only to feel an unprecedented feeling in his body that was burning.
Ye Qingyu observed for a little longer before he removed the restriction.
Swoosh!
That blood shadow transformed into a blood arrow, shooting towards the direction of Little Ten.
Little Ten not only was unafraid, but released a long, joyous howl, before speeding over to the blood shadow.
The speed of the two was incredibly fast, but Ye Qingyu was still able to capture everything vividly with his eyes. He did not obstruct them, but carefully observed everything. The instant the blood shadow and Little Ten collided with a loud boom, the white body that Ye Qingyu had personally created was shattered into fine powder and drifted away. Little Ten's real body was also like a blood shadow, which instantly fused with that blood shadow.
A new force was born.
This moment, Ye Qingyu realized that the demonic blood shadow and Little Ten belong to the same origin, and are the same thing, which also explains why Little Ten felt that something was calling him in the ancient black castle. The reason he was so irritable and impatient was also because of the summoning and pounding of the power of origin.
And the reason the demonic blood shadow had low intelligence, like a child, perhaps is also because of the missing origin?
The reason why Little Ten's strength could not be improved for a long period of time despite Ye Qingyu's assistance was also perhaps because of this reason.
The absence of a complete origin, for both the demonic blood shadow and Little Ten, had a fatal effect.
But when they integrate into one?
What will happen?
Ye Qingyu continued to observe in anticipation.
Two balls of blood shadow, like yin and yang, like two black and white fishes, were constantly swimming, wandering and integrating. Great dao was evolving and developing in the middle. Given Ye Qingyu's present strength, under careful observation, he also vaguely received enlightenment and understanding.
Soon, the blood-coloured double fishes were fully fused together.
The blood began to move, like an invisible brush dipped in thick ink was making stroke after stroke, creating a living creature form in the sky. A lion's head, antlers, tiger's eye, moose body, dragon scales, ox tail… One by one, each body part was sketched out, very clearly——the blood mass was evolving and changing into a new creature.
Ye Qingyu was inwardly astonished.
Because he recognized what species this new creature is——
Qilin!
It turned out to be a pure blood red-flamed Qilin.
Like the true dragon, Qilin was also highly respected by the various clans and races in the Vast Thousand Star Domains. It was one of the mythological animals in legends. If the true dragon symbolizes strength and majesty, then Qilin are a symbol of good luck. Throughout the era of the Divine Light Emperor, dragons had been seen but very rarely were there Qilin.
Ye Qingyu also did not think that Little Ten's origin was the auspicious Qilin beast.
It should be said that in the Ancient Sky Dragon Domain, Little Ten was the culprit who devoured the life of the star domain, yet he was linked with the auspicious Qilin.
Roar!
The outline was completed, and a real red-flamed Qilin descended onto the world, emitting a resounding roar.
Around the Stone Peak, all spirits and beasts darted away, or stood shivering with fear, as though they sensed the arrival of the king.
“Master.” The Qilin spoke, came to stand before Qingyu, and bowed his head, rubbing his horn against Ye Qingyu's palm. The voice was exactly the same as the previous Little Ten. It was clear that in this integration of origin, the wisdom and consciousness of Little Ten had occupied the dominant position. He did not lose his previous memory following the integration of origin and the change in appearance.
