81: A demonized Qilin? It has to go in the pot too! Baptism in the Beast God Pool!

The Myriad Beast Mountain Beast Arena was now a scene of utter devastation.

The Demonized Qilin that had rushed out of the Forbidden Ground was twenty zhang tall, its body covered in scales oozing black pus, and its four hooves trod on black demonic flames.

It was like an out-of-control meat grinder, rampaging through the beast horde.

"Roar!"

It opened its massive mouth and bit a Nascent Soul Stage white elephant trying to escape. With a crunch, the elephant's head shattered, and blood splattered.

The surrounding Yao Beasts were scared Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering, fleeing in all directions.

Even the few Demon Emperors on the viewing platform had solemn expressions, not daring to step forward easily.

"There's something strange inside this Qilin! That Devilish Qi... it seems to be able to corrode the Primordial Spirit!"

Tongbi Ape Emperor said in a deep voice, "Don't fight it head-on, activate the great formation to suppress it!"

However, just as all the Yao Beasts were busy fleeing for their lives, a golden figure moved against the flow.

Gu Yang, holding the heavenly demon meteor hammer, looked at the Earth-Shaking Divine Ox that had been trampled into a pulp by the Demonized Qilin (that was his reserve food he had just knocked out and hadn't had time to eat), and his eyes instantly turned red.

"Stop! That's my ox!"

Gu Yang let out a heart-wrenching roar, as if what had been stolen was not an ox, but his entire fortune.

"Wasting food is shameful! You prodigal bastard!"

He pushed off with his foot, activating Extreme Dao Burst Step, and transformed into a golden streak of light, rushing directly towards the Demonized Qilin.

"Human? Seeking death!"

The Demonized Qilin sensed Gu Yang's aura, turned its head, its eyes filled with savagery and madness.

It opened its mouth and spewed out a torrent of demonic fire, black as ink and reeking of corrosive stench, that swept towards him.

This demonic fire was no ordinary flame; it was the **"Bone-Corroding Demonic Flame"** tainted with the aura of an ancient Demonic God, bringing instant death upon contact and capable of defiling even Magic Treasures.

"Playing with fire? I am your ancestor!"

Gu Yang didn't dodge or evade; black and gold light erupted from his body.

Que Xie Golden Body—Invulnerable to All Methods!

Blazing Fire Golden Body—Same Origin Devour!

Whoosh—

He directly charged into the demonic fire.

The demonic fire, capable of burning Nascent Soul Cultivators to death, was like a warm bath on his body, only burning off a layer of his skin, and instead, a considerable amount was absorbed by the Five Elements Furnace within him.

"A bit spicy for the throat, bad review!"

Gu Yang broke through the sea of fire and instantly appeared above the Qilin's head.

He tightly gripped the Meteor Hammer with both hands, his muscles bulging, and the Dragon Elephant Demonic Ape Totem roared behind him.

"Get down, you!!!"

Clang—!!!

The 300,000-jin Meteor Hammer, amplified by twenty times gravity, smashed heavily onto the Qilin's forehead.

With a muffled thud, the Demonized Qilin's massive body sank abruptly, its four hooves embedding three chi deep into the ground, and the scales on its head shattered, black demonic blood flowing out.

"Ow—"

The Qilin cried out in pain, wildly shaking its head, trying to throw Gu Yang off.

At the same time, the Devilish Qi on its body transformed into countless tentacles, coiling towards Gu Yang.

"Still dare to resist?"

Gu Yang threw away the Meteor Hammer and directly straddled the Qilin's neck.

He clamped the Qilin's neck tightly with his legs, and his two large hands grabbed its pair of ferocious Qilin horns.

"I've ridden Dragons in the Chaotic Star Sea, so why can't I ride you in the Great Wilderness?"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Gu Yang freed one hand, clenched it into a fist, and delivered a barrage of blows to the Qilin's temples.

Each punch contained the power of Five Elements Collapse, causing the Qilin's brain to shake and golden stars to appear before its eyes.

"How dare you steal my food! How dare you waste food! Don't you know meat is expensive these days?!"

Under Gu Yang's unreasonable physical assault, the Demonized Qilin finally became dazed.

Although the Devilish Qi within its body was overbearing, it couldn't gain any advantage against Gu Yang's Five Elements Primordial Body.

"Roar..."

The Qilin let out a mournful cry and collapsed to the ground.

Gu Yang did not stop.

His Five Elements Great Millstone sensed that within this Qilin's body, there was a core emitting an extremely evil aura, continuously supplying Devilish Qi.

"This thing is causing trouble?"

Gu Yang's eyes turned cold, his five fingers formed a claw, and with a squelch, he plunged it into the Qilin's chest.

After a stir, he pulled out a still-beating, jet-black heart.

[High-energy Demonic Source detected: Demonic God's Heart (Incomplete)!]

[Contains the power of an ancient Demonic God, extremely high energy, but with severe side effects. Do you wish to devour it?]

Gu Yang looked at the heart, still dripping black blood, and hesitated for a second.

"It looks a bit disgusting..."

"However, this is a Half-step Soul Transformation-level energy source..."

"Never mind, I'll wash it and eat it!"

He used his Divine Power to shake off the surface grime and then opened his mouth wide, swallowing it whole.

Five Elements Great Millstone—Extreme Refinement!

Boom!

The demonic heart entered his stomach, and a violent demonic will attempted to assault Gu Yang's consciousness.

"Behave yourself!"

Gu Yang guarded his Dantian, his entire body's Qi and blood burning like a furnace, forcibly grinding away the demonic will and converting it into the purest energy.

As the demonic heart was removed, the Demonized Qilin completely ceased breathing, turning into a pile of withered bones.

And just then, the Restrictions deep within Myriad Beast Mountain, having lost the suppression of Devilish Qi, completely collapsed.

Buzz—

A golden pillar of light shot up into the sky.

At the center of the light pillar, a golden pond, a hundred zhang in circumference, appeared.

The pond water was golden yellow, viscous like mercury, emitting a sacred, ancient aura that made one want to worship it.

The true Beast God Pool!

Flowing within it was the true blood of a divine beast left behind by successive Divine Beasts of Myriad Beast Mountain before their Ascension!

"This is... the true blood of a divine beast?"

Gu Yang looked at the pool of golden liquid, feeling every cell in his body screaming; the longing was stronger than ever before.

[Detecting super high-energy biological essence! This is the opportunity for the Physical Body to Breakthrough to Soul Transformation!]

The System prompt sounded.

"Hahahaha! Good! Good!"

Gu Yang laughed three times, ignoring the stunned Demon Emperors around him, and directly leaped.

Plop!

He jumped into the center of the Beast God Pool.

"I've reserved this whole pool! Nobody gets to snatch it from me!"

Rumble!

The golden pool water instantly boiled, transforming into countless golden Dragon phantoms, frantically drilling into Gu Yang's body.

His Physical Body began to glow, and every pore was exhaling golden auspicious light.

His Nascent Soul and Physical Body began to undergo deep Fusion, with his internal organs, bones, and Meridians all undergoing a fundamental transformation.

The Indestructible War Body was evolving towards the higher Realm of **"Rebirth from a Drop of Blood"**!
