The vicious female Ye Youcha, who is in Shura Field every day

Chapter 320 Convergence
The lava river churned and rolled, scorching hot and extremely hot, a crimson expanse as far as the eye could see.

Bai Qi's body was submerged in it, with only his fox head and ten fox tails floating in the lava river showing.

The snow-white fur was long gone, leaving only bare flesh, as if it had been boiled, a truly pitiful sight.

If his strength hadn't already reached the ninth level, he would probably have been burned to death inside long ago.

However, the effect was also extremely significant, with wisps of black energy constantly emerging from the body.

The previously clouded sense of self has become increasingly clear, and when I think about what I have done, I feel as if I have just woken up from a dream.

He truly longed for a lifelong, monogamous relationship, and to grow old with Yue'er, have several litters of fox cubs, and live a loving and sweet life together.

Countless times I've thought about how much better it would be if there were no Ye Ling, Mo Lin, Qing Zhu, Xuan Ming, Xuan Yuan Ming, and Feng Su.

But it was just a thought; I didn't actually do anything about it, though I was very unhappy inside.

But as his feelings for Yue'er deepened, his possessiveness grew stronger.

Especially after ascending to the throne of the Beast King, this desire for exclusive ownership reached its peak.

He couldn't help but harbor some evil thoughts, which gave the demonic gu in his body an opportunity to take advantage.

A cold glint flashed in Bai Qi's fox-like eyes. He hated the person who cast the curse so much that they almost caused his utter destruction.

We must also find out who did it.

This was the first time Feng Chi and Feng Li had seen Bai Qi in such a disheveled state, and they were both deeply moved.

Xuanming showed mercy; if it had been anyone else, he probably would have killed them long ago.

It's unclear how the master will treat Bai Qi next.

It's unlikely they'll end their relationship; they'll probably just treat each other coldly.

Furthermore, after this incident, Bai Qi will definitely be ostracized and ignored by everyone. Even if he manages to stay, his life will not be easy.

"Here you go, take it."

Xuanxiang remembered the ice-type beast core on his body, suddenly took it out and tossed it to Ye Ling, "It's just right for you."

Ye Ling's silver eyes flickered slightly as she raised her hand to catch the beast core, wrapping it in her palm.

"What a coincidence."

He curled his thin lips into a smile. "I killed a beast that was blocking my way on the road and obtained an Ice Soul."

As he spoke, he took out a fist-sized ice crystal from his pocket.

It is crystal clear and exudes an extremely cold aura. "Using it in combination might have unexpected effects."

Feng Su frowned at him and kindly reminded him, "Both of these energies are extremely powerful. Aren't you afraid of exploding and dying if you swallow them together?"

My cousin is crazy enough, but Ye Ling seems even crazier than him. From now on, let's just call him Mad Wolf.

Upon hearing this, Ye Ling's silver eyes flashed with a dark light, and she said calmly, "I know what I'm doing."

"Know your limits, my foot."

Xuanming reached out to snatch the ice-type beast core back, "Didn't you suffer enough in the Endless Sea last time? Want to go again? Do you think you're a cat with nine lives to mess around with?"

Ye Ling dodged Xuan Ming's hand by stepping aside, raising an eyebrow slightly. "Once something is given away, there's no reason to take it back. Or are you having second thoughts?"

"Bullshit, do you think I'm that kind of petty person?"

Xuanming's face instantly turned bright red, and his voice roared deafeningly, "I'm afraid you'll blame me if you die."

Ye Ling narrowed her silver eyes, toying with the ice-type beast core between her fingertips, a dangerous smile playing on her lips. "Don't worry, I won't blame you if I die."

He's not stupid, why would he joke about his own life?

Although the beast core is violent, the Ice Soul is a spiritual treasure of heaven and earth, and its energy is relatively mild, which can neutralize the beast core's violence.

In addition, both of them are extremely cold, which is a great tonic for someone with ice-type superpowers like myself.

Xuanyuan Ming glanced at Ye Ling with his golden eyes but said nothing; he didn't care about such things.

Seeing that Ye Ling was being sensible, Feng Su didn't say anything more.

He took out the fire-type beast core that Xuanming had given him and suddenly leaned close to Ye Ling, "Hey, want to have a competition to see who breaks through first?"

Ye Ling didn't even glance at him. She immediately transformed into an ancient silver moon wolf and swallowed the beast core and the ice soul together.

In an instant, its silvery-white fur bristled, and countless ice crystals covered its entire body, as if it had transformed into an ancient ice wolf.

"Fuck."

Xuanming's eyes widened instantly. "Really swallowing it?"

Ice crystals spread rapidly from Nightfeather's center, freezing the surrounding ground into ice, and the air temperature dropped significantly.

His internal energy surged, and in the blink of an eye, he broke through from the ninth rank to the tenth rank, and was still climbing higher.
Xuanming watched with envy, then took out another beast core he had saved for himself from his robes and stuffed it into his mouth, saying, "I can't fall behind either."

Although he had recently broken through, that was due to the effects of the Karmic Fire Red Lotus, and it did not conflict with the Devouring Beast Pill.

In an instant, he transformed back into his original form, with three heads and six eyes, crimson fur, and karmic fire lotuses blooming around him.

Feng Su was astonished and, not wanting to be outdone, tilted her head back and swallowed the fire-type beast core in her hand.

Then it transformed into its true form, a fire phoenix, and plunged headfirst into the lava river, its fiery red feathers unfurling, looking even more comfortable than on the shore.

The scorching magma was a great tonic for him, and with the addition of a fire-type beast core, even if he couldn't undergo Nirvana, it would still help his strength advance by leaps and bounds.

"Comfortable~"

He narrowed his eyes, his body a fusion of phoenix fire and scorching magma. "This is what cultivation is all about."

Bai Qi watched this scene silently, his ten bald tails drooping listlessly.

The demonic gu within his body had been almost completely purified, and his mind was becoming increasingly clear, yet his heart was filled with bitterness.

I don't know how to face what's to come.

When Qingzhu and Molin arrived, this was the scene they saw.

Ye Ling broke through within the ice crystals.

Xuanming has three heads and six eyes. Although the Nine Nether Demon Wolf form is ugly, it is still majestic and domineering, exuding an ancient and primordial aura.

Qingzhu didn't recognize Xuanming at first, but she sensed a familiar aura and then realized who he was.

"This brute is quite lucky; he actually evolved into a Nine Nether Demon Wolf. He turned misfortune into blessing."

He stared at Xuanming, who was making a full breakthrough, his emerald eyes flashing slightly, genuinely happy for him.

Seeing that the other party was not dead, he was relieved.

Mo Lin's gaze instantly fell on the center of the lava river, where Feng Su transformed into her true form and was immersed in it, her body enveloped in Phoenix True Fire.

Since the eyelids and body are not visible, it's unclear whether it's undergoing nirvana or a breakthrough.

At first glance, all you could see were flames and scalding lava.

Bai Qi, like a bald fox that had been boiled, floated pitifully in the lava river.

"What are you doing here?" Mo Lin's eyes flickered slightly, his clear voice filled with doubt.

Ye Ling, Feng Su, and Xuan Ming were all breaking through and it was inconvenient for them to answer, and Bai Qi himself was also embarrassed to speak.

Xuanyuan Ming stood with his arms crossed on the bank of the lava river, his golden eyes sweeping over Qingzhu and Molin, and said succinctly, "Yeling and the others are breaking through, and Bai Qi has a demonic gu in his body, which is being purified."

"A demonic gu? What demonic gu?"

Qingzhu keenly grasped the key information and felt puzzled.

Where did the demonic gu come from in the old fox's body, and when did it appear?
He was unaware of what Bai Qi had done, and was only wondering where the demonic gu had come from.

Mo Lin instantly looked at Bai Qi, his eyes dark and unfathomable, as if he were thinking of something.

Xuanyuan Ming sneered, the phoenix fire in the lava river illuminating his incomparably handsome profile, and briefly recounted what Bai Qi had done.

In the dead of night, the Beast King City's secret guards set traps in the northern valley and the Wilderness Valley, luring mammoths, Tyrannosaurus Rex, and saber-toothed tigers to besiege Xuanming.

A giant boulder rolled down from the mountaintop, trapped by vines, and plunged into an endless abyss, sealing the entrance once more.

He paused, a flash of anger crossing his golden eyes, "Even I, the young master, was included in your scheme."

Mo Lin's face instantly darkened. His true form as a serpent appeared uncontrollably for a moment, then he forcefully suppressed it. His voice was as cold as an ancient glacier, "Bai Qi?"

Qingzhu laughed in anger, her emerald green eyes fixed on Bai Qi, who was disheveled in the lava. "Not bad, you old fox. You always act all high and mighty, but you play dirty tricks behind people's backs?"

Although Bai Qi had already revealed his desire to possess Yue'er exclusively in front of them, no one took it to heart, and no one expected him to make a move.

It was still the same cruel method.

Bai Qi's ten tails floated listlessly on the surface of the lava, their once elegant fox tails now bare, resembling ten fiery sticks.

He opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing.

"The demonic curse amplifies the evil thoughts in one's heart, but—"

Xuanyuan Ming gave Bai Qi a meaningful look, "Some thoughts are ultimately his own."

The lava was churning, and waves of heat were hitting us.

Bai Qi did not deny Xuan Yuanming's words, nor did he try to defend himself. He remained silent, his heart filled with bitterness.

He knew that any explanation would be futile at this point.

Although those evil thoughts were amplified by the demonic curse, they ultimately stemmed from his inner obsession.

He looked down at his charred claws, the mocking words of Qingzhu ringing in his ears:

"You act like a pure white lotus, but behind the scenes you're worse than an animal. If the demonic gu hadn't matured, who knows how long you'd keep up the act?"

Mo Lin turned and left without even giving Bai Qi a glance.

She simply nodded slightly to Xuan Yuanming, "Thank you."

Two simple words, yet they made Xuanyuan Ming raise an eyebrow.

This cold-blooded worm has always been arrogant, not to mention that its tail was recently broken by the Dragon Clan's Xuanjia Guards, so it's quite a surprise to receive a thank you from it.

At the same time, it's clear that the other person has let go of their resentment and is at least no longer rejecting them.

He chuckled inwardly, feeling a strange mix of emotions—just a bit of happiness.

However, what came out of his mouth was extremely irritating: "I did it for Yue'er."

The magma suddenly surged violently, and the phoenix fire surrounding Feng Su soared into the sky.

Fiery red wings spread out above the lava, and magnificent feathers on its body were reborn in the flames, shimmering and shining.

"The phoenix has undergone rebirth, reaching the twelfth stage?"

Qingzhu stared at Feng Su's true form above the lava and was instantly filled with envy and jealousy.

Thinking that I'm only at level eleven, I wonder if I'll end up at the bottom?
The moment that thought crossed his mind, he felt terrible.

Feng Su transformed into human form and landed on the shore, her fiery red feathers fluttering in the wind.

He tossed his long hair with a swagger, "How about it? Don't you look even more handsome?"

He was met with a chorus of cold snorts.

Suddenly, the ice crystals around Ye Ling shattered, the ancient silver moon wolf howled, and its silvery-white fur shone even brighter, as if light was flowing around it.

The pressure of the twelfth level swept out.

He stood up, his imposing aura receding, a pleased smile playing on his lips; he was in an extremely good mood.

"They've all broken through."

Xuanming's three heads grinned simultaneously, "Then I can't fall behind."

The karmic fire lotus suddenly surged, enveloping him and turning him into a fiery figure.

When the firelight dissipated, it had already taken on a human form, wild and untamed, yet exceptionally handsome.

"Damn it, why am I only at level eleven?"

Xuanming looked displeased. Although he had broken through, he was still one level lower than Ye Ling and Feng Su.

Feng Su came over waving a feather fan and nudged him with a gloating expression. "Be content. It's already good enough that you, with your ugly three-headed and six-eyed appearance, were able to break through."

"Get lost."

Xuanming slapped him away, then suddenly remembered something and turned to glare at Bai Qi in the lava river, "Old fox, have you soaked long enough?"

Xuanyuan Ming narrowed his golden eyes slightly, "Soak a little longer, the demonic gu is not yet gone."

He couldn't tell anything about any kind of "magic curse" or not; he just wanted the old fox to stay inside a little longer.

He soaked in it for most of the day; the dragon scales were all rotten.

Bai Qi, his ten tails charred black, floated in the lava, and smiled bitterly upon hearing this.

What I once took for granted as calculation now seems somewhat bewildering in retrospect.

Qingzhu crossed her arms and sneered, "If you ask me, we should chop off all ten of his tails."
"I've already plucked five stripes from the tree."

Xuanming grinned, revealing his gleaming white teeth.

Ye Ling's silver eyes swept over everyone, but she didn't look at Bai Qi at all, completely ignoring him. "It's time to go back. Yue'er must be getting impatient."

The word "Moon" made Xuanyuan Ming's golden eyes light up.

He raised his hand and tore through space, and starlight could be faintly seen in the dark crack: "Let's go."

One by one, the group stepped into the crevice.

No one paid any attention to Bai Qi inside the lava.

Bai Qi, fearing he would be left behind, struggled to climb ashore and hurriedly followed.

From now on, this chapter will be updated at noon instead of in the morning.
