Honghuang: My understanding is beyond belief. I am the first immortal of Jiejiao.

"Brother, there don't seem to be any monsters here. Shall we... go check out the next location?"

Gu Yang confidently stated that he could see things that Lin Zhu could not.

He prepared to demonstrate his talent to Lin Zhu.

Gu Yang stood before Moonlit Stream, a hint of pride on his face. He looked at Lin Zhu and said in a deep voice.

"Boy, why do you think I can smell the wind from ancient times? It's because my identity and my bloodline are not simple!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhu felt a chill run down her spine.

He knew that Gu Yang was about to reveal his secret.

"I am the Phoenix-Eyed Water Wolf. My bloodline can be traced back to the beginning of the Dragon-Han Calamity. I am a combination of the bloodlines of the Phoenix and the first wolf in the world!"

Gu Yang's voice was filled with pride.

Lin Zhu was greatly shocked upon hearing this.

He never imagined that Gu Yang's bloodline would be so powerful.

"The bloodline of the Phoenix-Eyed Water Wolf is extremely powerful, with extraordinary talent and the ability to gather beasts."

Gu Yang continued to explain.

"This ability to gather beasts is not like the ordinary Seventy-Two Transformations, but rather it attracts surrounding demonic beasts through the essence of the bloodline within the body."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhu felt a chill run down his spine.

He knew that Gu Yang had completely accepted him as one of his own; otherwise, he wouldn't have revealed such an important secret so easily.

"Beasts are inherently violent and bloodthirsty, and the essence of my Phoenix-Eyed Water Wolf bloodline has a strong attraction for them, causing them to instinctively gather around."

Gu Yang's voice was filled with smugness.

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhu couldn't help but secretly covet the opportunity.

He knew that Gu Yang's bloodline essence was of great use to him.

He even felt a pang of guilt, thinking he had become evil.

Gu Yang looked at Lin Zhu's expression but mistakenly thought he was shocked.

He deliberately attacked Lin Zhu, saying that the bloodline of mortals was pathetic, but he didn't realize that Lin Zhu was already eyeing the essence of his bloodline.

"Boy, your mortal bloodline is pathetic and pitiful. You can't possibly understand the power of my bloodline!"

Gu Yang's voice was full of sarcasm.

Lin Zhu remained silent upon hearing this.

He simply looked at Gu Yang, his eyes filled with a complex light.

"Gu Yang, what should we do next? Even if you attract a lot of demonic beasts, they'll all run away quickly, right?"

Lin Zhu asked in confusion.

Gu Yang burst into wild laughter, looking at Lin Zhu and offering a reminder.

"Boy, don't forget, you stole the great divine power from the Western Paradise: the Buddha Kingdom in the Palm of Your Hand!"

Lin Zhu was shocked to realize what Gu Yang meant. He never expected that Gu Yang would be so vicious.

"Gu Yang, you...you want me to use the Palm Buddha Kingdom to subdue these demonic beasts?"

Lin Zhu's voice was filled with shock.

Gu Yang sneered as he looked at Lin Zhu, his ferocious face filled with threat.

"That's right! You must use the Buddha Kingdom in your palm to subdue these demonic beasts! You must prove that you are not a piece of trash!"

Lin Zhu felt uneasy; he never imagined that Gu Yang would be so cruel.

"Gu Yang, I...I..."

However, Gu Yang did not give him a chance to speak.

He grabbed Lin Zhu by the collar and lifted him up, his phoenix eyes filled with threat.

"Kid, let me tell you, you have to take the demon beast in! Don't forget, I still have leverage over you!"

Gu Yang's voice was filled with coldness.

Lin Zhu took a deep breath; he knew he had no way out.

He finally nodded tearfully under Gu Yang's threat.

"Alright! I'll take the monster in!"

Gu Yang then released his grip with satisfaction and began to tidy Lin Zhu's clothes.

"Kid, that's more like it. Only by doing things can you demonstrate your value and have a chance to stay!"

After Gu Yang finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Yuehuajian and revealed a ferocious smile on his face.

He transformed into a pure white, phoenix-eyed water wolf, howled to the sky, and spat out a crystal-clear bead of blood.

Those blood beads were the essence of his bloodline.

He used his great magical power to send the blood bead into the void, attracting demonic beasts to come.

"Boy, this blood bead will attract a constant stream of demonic beasts. You, get ready to capture them!"

Gu Yang's voice was full of commands.

Lin Zhu looked at the blood droplets and felt a little tempted. He tentatively asked.

"Gu Yang, how many more blood beads can you release?"

Gu Yang replied.

"At most, we can put in three more."

Lin Zhu calculated in his mind that if he squeezed every last drop, he could only get one blood bead at most.

He decided to find a way to squeeze every last drop of value out of Gu Yang.

Lin Zhu's conscience had been completely shattered by Gu Yang, and he began to become cruel to his good friend Gu Yang.

Soon, under the attraction of the bloodline essence, Moonflower Valley underwent a tremendous change, even startling Lin Zhu.

Moonflower Stream, a place with a rather elegant name, was now trembling violently like an enraged beast.

Although it is named "Jian", its scale is incredibly vast, covering an area that even ten mountain ranges cannot compare to.

The spiritual energy here is abundant, and the air is filled with subtle water-attribute spiritual energy, indicating that this is a paradise of water-attribute spiritual energy.

The tremors were unstable, with multiple areas shaking simultaneously. Countless bubbles rose from the bottom of the water, and terrifying auras, like a mountain torrent or tsunami, rapidly approached.

"Rumble"

The mountain collapsed, sending rocks flying everywhere.

A ferocious eye slowly opened from the mountain, an eye the size of half a mountain peak, exuding an aura of ancient times.

At the same time, a strong smell of blood wafted in from the wind.

A giant, blood-red eagle swooped down from the sky like a shooting star, its wings seemingly capable of tearing the heavens apart.

All the powerful figures in Moonflower Valley flocked towards the Phoenix-Eyed Water Wolf, clearly attracted by its bloodline essence.

Lin Zhu raised his eyebrows when he saw these demonic beasts, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

He never expected that all these mythical beasts, which only existed in ancient legends, would gather here.

"My God. Could that blood-red giant eagle be one of the 365 righteous gods of the ancient demon heaven court?"

Lin Zhu thought to himself.

"And the ancient dragon-blooded lampreys at the bottom of the water possess the bloodline of true dragons. The rock unicorns in the mountains possess the bloodline of unicorns."

Lin Zhu was amazed by the wonders of Beiju Luzhou, never expecting that so many top-tier bloodline demon beasts were sleeping here.

He knew that if these demonic beasts were taken out, they would be enough to cause a stir in the Three Realms.

Seeing Lin Zhu's expression, Gu Yang burst into laughter, a laugh filled with provocation. "What? Scared?"

Gu Yang looked at Lin Zhu, his eyes filled with smugness.

"Boy, let me tell you, these demonic beasts are all at the level of Great Luo Golden Immortals. You are naturally no match for them."

Gu Yang confidently declared that he would show Lin Zhu what true power and ruthlessness were.

"Kid, just you wait and see! I'll show you what a true powerhouse is!"

The demonic beasts of Moonflower Valley swarmed in, among which the three most powerful were the top-tier bloodline demonic beasts.

Lin Zhu pondered that if he were to take action, it would probably take quite a while to deal with these demonic beasts.

But of course he wouldn't make a move, because he had Gu Yang, a half-step quasi-saint, to help him.

Gu Yang immediately unleashed his innate skill, Heavenly Wolf Howling at the Moon.

He gathered the spiritual energy of the Moonlit Stream to form a ball of light. Within that ball of light was a powerful pressure, as if it could destroy everything.

"The Heavenly Wolf Howls at the Moon!"

With a loud shout, Gu Yang unleashed a ball of light that shot straight towards the crimson divine eagle in the sky.

Lin Zhu was secretly shocked. He realized that if this blow landed on him, he would be crippled if not killed.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, the ball of light pierced through the crimson divine eagle in the sky, bringing it down.

The Crimson Divine Eagle let out a shrill scream, its body plummeting from the sky like a kite with a broken string.

Gu Yang ordered Lin Zhu to subdue the divine eagle, and Lin Zhu touched his nose and agreed.

"Alright! Just you wait and see!"

Lin Zhu used his great supernatural power to create a Buddha Kingdom in his palm, capturing the fallen blood-red divine eagle within it.

At the same time, Gu Yang transforms into a battlefield reaper, charging into the monsters and engaging in a bloody battle.

His strength opened Lin Zhu's eyes.

He transformed into a crystalline ray of light, weaving through the arena, and any demonic beasts that touched him collapsed to the ground.

Lin Zhu cheered loudly from the side, praising Gu Yang's strength.

"Brother, you're awesome! Brother, you're so cool!"

Meanwhile, Lin Zhu secretly collected demonic beasts.

After capturing the demon beast into his palm-sized Buddhist kingdom, he used his great supernatural powers to smash it to death. He then transferred the corpse into the Shennong Cauldron, refined it into elixirs, and finally kept it for himself.

Gu Yang's hard work ultimately benefited Lin Zhu.

Gu Yang, however, was completely unaware of this.

Gu Yang sneered inwardly, believing that Lin Zhu had been used by him and had obediently sold his labor.

He called out to Lin Zhu, pretending to be friendly.

"You've worked hard, brother!"

Lin Zhu turned around, moved, and said that serving the people was not hard work.

"Brother, I'm not tired! Serving the people is not hard work!"

Gu Yang was even more pleased with himself, thinking that Lin Zhu was a complete fool who had no idea he was being used.

"Hmph. Kid, just you wait! Once I've subdued these demonic beasts, you'll be mine!"

Gu Yang thought to himself.

Lin Zhu's mind sank into the Buddhist kingdom in his palm. His original plan was to tame those top-level demonic beasts that Gu Yang had beaten half to death but still possessed the combat power of a Great Luo Golden Immortal and turn them into his own.

If he succeeds, he will instantly have a group of incredibly powerful henchmen under his command, which is exciting to think about.

However, reality dealt him a heavy blow.

His divine sense carefully swept over the dying demonic beasts and he immediately noticed something was wrong.

Without exception, these demonic beasts were entwined with a pure yet chilling demonic energy. This demonic energy was like a bone-deep infection, not only corroding their physical bodies but also deeply polluting their primordial spirits.

What alarmed Lin Zhu even more was that the primordial spirits of these demonic beasts did not seem to be naturally complete. Instead, they appeared to have been forcibly pieced together by some force, riddled with cracks and discordant "interfaces," broken and full of instability.

In this state, let alone taming them, it is extremely difficult to even keep their primordial spirit from completely disintegrating, as if they will disintegrate at any time and return to the world.

"Oh, what a pity."

Lin Zhu sighed inwardly; the taming plan had already failed before it even began.

These "defective products," deeply corrupted by demonic energy and with damaged primordial spirits, are also a potential hazard if left unattended.

Just as he was about to completely dispose of these monster materials, the familiar and pleasant system notification sound in his mind rang out continuously like celestial music, dispelling the slight regret in his heart.

"Ding! Detected that the host has added materials for the super-enhanced Shennong Cauldron."

Top-grade, fresh demonic beast materials triggered a [Fusion Critical Strike]! Successfully refined, obtaining 2 [Nine-Turn Great Luo Golden Pills] (Superior Quality)!

Lin Zhu's spirits lifted, and the Nine-Turn Great Golden Elixir was ready!

This is a top-grade precious pill that can greatly help improve the realm of a Great Luo Golden Immortal. Even one of them is enough to cause a bloodbath. Now, two of them have appeared, and they are even of the highest quality!

That wasn't all; the notification sound rang again.

"Ding! Detected that the host has used a large amount of demonic beast materials for refining, triggering [Refining Critical Strike]! Refining successful, obtained [Nine-Turn Taiyi Golden Pill] x10 (Superior Quality)!"

Ten top-grade Nine-Turn Taiyi Golden Pills!

This is enough to cultivate ten Taiyi Golden Immortal level experts, or to make the existing Taiyi Golden Immortals' strength advance by leaps and bounds.

Lin Zhu could almost see the scene of his Three Realms Enforcers brigade's overall strength soaring.

Immediately afterwards, the system seemed to enter a "critical hit" frenzy.

"Ding! Successfully refined low-level demon beast materials, obtained [Divine Spirit Pill] x1 (Superior Quality)!"

"Ding! Successfully refined low-level demon beast materials, obtained [Spirit Strengthening Pill] x1 (Superior Quality)!"

"Ding! Successfully refined low-level demon beast materials, obtained [Moon Essence Pill] x1 (top quality)!"

Although these pills are not as precious as the previous two, they each have their own unique uses, especially the top-quality ones, which have extraordinary effects.

The next prompt, however, made Lin Zhu pause slightly.

"Ding! Successfully fused and refined all the demonic primordial spirits of the demonic beasts, triggering [Reward Critical Hit]! Obtained 1 special pill [Mortal Berserk Pill]!"

Mortal Berserk Pill? This was the first time Lin Zhu had ever heard of such a pill.

He carefully sensed the information transmitted by the system.

This pill can instantly put mortals into a berserk state, granting them immense power for ten minutes.

However, the system did not provide a specific description of "extremely powerful", only noting "effects unknown, please use with caution".

"interesting……"

Lin Zhu stroked the unassuming, even somewhat dusty, pill, feeling curious, but still carefully stored it separately in the deepest part of the system space. It was better to leave something with unknown effects for future testing.

The final system notification brought Lin Zhu's joy to a climax.

"Ding! Successfully refined all the demon beast materials, obtained 1000 [Ten Thousand Year Cultivation Pills]!"

One thousand! A full one thousand pills that can increase an immortal's cultivation by ten thousand years!

what does this mean?
This means that the overall strength of his Three Realms Enforcers Brigade will experience an explosive leap! As long as resources are allocated properly, it is not a dream to create an elite force composed of a large number of Golden Immortals and Taiyi Golden Immortals in a short period of time!

Even for a Great Luo Golden Immortal, this Ten Thousand Years of Cultivation Pill is not entirely ineffective; accumulated over time, it can still be quite substantial.

"We've struck it rich! We've really struck it rich this time!"

Lin Zhu was overjoyed, and the regret he had felt earlier because he couldn't tame the demon beasts had long been forgotten.

Compared to these elixirs that genuinely enhance overall strength, refining those uncontrollable and fraught with hidden dangers is the best course of action! (End of Chapter)
