Not only her, but all the creatures of the ancient primordial world around her fell like dumplings being dropped into a pot, their blood splattering all over the ground.
The nightmare returned, and when the white qilin awoke, it was covered in cold sweat and its face was deathly pale.
Before it could catch its breath, a familiar, playful laugh reached it, and at the same time, it found itself in a warm, fragrant embrace.
As if realizing something, the white Qilin's eyes showed pain. It looked up and, sure enough, the girl's face appeared before it.
As for the people around, there was the famous Phoenix Maiden, the chosen one of heaven, a young man carrying a celestial golden sword, and a nameless yet extraordinary being who suddenly barged into the gathering.
Everything was so familiar—the same purple bamboo forest in the South China Sea, the same familiar people, the same familiar things, even the conversations were unchanged.
The white Qilin shuddered. Was it going to happen again? To relive that nightmare once more?
After an unknown amount of time, the nightmare ended, but the white qilin was trembling uncontrollably, its spirit deeply wounded.
Before it could catch its breath, the familiar voice came again; it was the girl it had been waiting for all along.
"No!"
The white Qilin screamed incessantly, its bright eyes filled with blood, and its face became ferocious and distorted.
What is this? If it's a nightmare, why does it repeat itself over and over again, repeatedly reopening the wounds in its heart?
No matter who it is, it would be difficult to bear experiencing these things.
Outside the illusion of reincarnation, the two purple Qilins had disappeared, returning to the divine rings of Shi Yi's two bodies. The Yin body and the Sun body stood there, and in front of them, a white Qilin collapsed on the ground, tears streaming down its face, whimpering and wailing from time to time, as if it were experiencing something extremely painful.
"Aren't we going a bit too far?" Taiyang Shiyi asked with a smile.
The instant Bai Qilin looked over, he and Taiyin Shiyi attacked together, using the ability of double pupils to attack the primordial spirit. Combined with the Great Dao of Reincarnation, this allowed Bai Qilin to relive that most painful experience again and again.
The white Qilin had little combat experience and lacked vigilance, so it was easily caught off guard.
In a mere instant, it went through dozens or even hundreds of cycles, repeatedly reliving its most terrifying and painful experiences. Even a person with a strong mind would find it difficult to endure, let alone a well-behaved baby like the White Qilin.
"As the saying goes, there can be no construction without destruction. It is too cowardly. It has the talent of a Qilin and a powerful bloodline, but it is so timid. It is really unbearable to watch."
How could someone born into one of the Ten Fiends act this way? He should strive to cultivate himself, climb to the highest peaks, contribute his own strength to defending his homeland, and at the same time, avenge his father.
"Let it taste the pain, feel the bitterness, immerse itself in the process of loss. Only in this way can it achieve true enlightenment, undergo spiritual rebirth, and start anew." Taiyin Shiyi said expressionlessly, a cold glint in his eyes.
"Haha, indeed, it's too timid and too weak. If it were born into an ordinary family, it wouldn't be a problem, but being born into the Ten Fierce Families is a waste of its talent."
As the two conversed, the secret treasure in the white qilin's hand emitted a soft light.
"Huh? This is bad."
Shi Yi and his companion both noticed this scene at the same time and were somewhat surprised. Who would have thought that the secret treasure in the white qilin's hand actually had its own consciousness and was now activating itself, clearly intending to run away with the tormented white qilin.
However, the next moment, the glowing treasure slowly rose up and floated in front of Shi Yi's body.
"This is?"
Shi Yi and his companion exchanged a glance, then reached out and placed the treasure in their palms.
Then, a ripple spread out, and Shi Yi immediately understood that this was a secret treasure left by the Qilin to its descendants, hoping that the descendants could surpass their predecessors and become even stronger. Unfortunately, the white Qilin's personality destined it to be unable to surpass its ancestors. The will of the secret treasure saw all this and was anxious, but it was powerless to do anything about it.
Shi Yi's actions, involving two bodies, were deeply appreciated by the will of this treasure, which led to the current situation.
"You want to entrust it to me?" Taiyin Shiyi was a little stunned. He came to capture the White Qilin for two reasons: one, to obtain some Qilin blood, and two, to bring it to the three major academies. As a descendant of the Ten Fiends of the White Qilin, the three major academies would definitely attach great importance to it and then provide Shiyi with corresponding resources.
As for getting the White Qilin to recognize it as its master and make it its personal divine beast, that's impossible. After all, it's a descendant of the Ten Fiends.
However, now, something unexpected has happened to Shi Yi: the ancient immortal treasure that Bai Qilin carries wants to hand Bai Qilin over to Shi Yi for training, because it believes that Shi Yi can change Bai Qilin's personality.
Just as Shi Yi was hesitating, it told him that it could give him an opportunity to enter the Qilin Immortal Palace.
The immortal palace left behind by one of the Ten Fiends naturally contains many amazing things and countless good things. It would be impossible not to be tempted.
After thinking it over, Shi Yi nodded in agreement, because in reality, he didn't need to put in too much effort. After all, the master leads you through the door, but the cultivation depends on yourself.
After receiving Shi Yi's permission, a white light shot out from the secret treasure. It was a unique mark of the White Qilin clan, a token for entering the Qilin Immortal Palace. After entering Shi Yi's body, it disappeared.
Chapter 294 Enlightenment
"If you've taken the benefits, you should do the work," Taiyin Shiyi said with a serious expression.
"I suddenly realized that this level is not enough, it's still far from enough."
Upon hearing this, Taiyang Shiyi's lips twitched slightly, and he glanced at the white Qilin lying on the ground, convulsing, with pity.
In the cycle of illusions, the white Qilin had become numb. It had experienced countless grand gatherings in the Purple Bamboo Forest of the South China Sea, witnessing time and time again the girl it cared about dying tragically before its eyes, lying in a pool of blood.
Each cycle of reincarnation felt like a knife to its heart.
By now, Bai Qilin's heart was shattered. Cowardice, loyalty, fear... all had been torn to shreds, leaving only pain, chaos, and distortion.
Its eyes were lifeless, and it watched indifferently as the grand gathering in the South China Sea Purple Bamboo Forest began once again, like a walking corpse on the verge of decay.
Sure enough, everything went as it had predicted. Scene after scene unfolded, all familiar to it, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived at the most painful moment.
A powerful alien creature attacked, and the girl holding it was targeted and killed. She fell helplessly into the blood, her eyes losing their light and becoming dull and lifeless.
Pain and struggle were revealed on the numb face of the white unicorn.
They thought it was all over and the next cycle would begin, but unexpectedly, the girl with dull eyes and who had already died suddenly moved.
The white Qilin was startled. This was different from what he had experienced before. The girl was clearly dead, so how could she still be moving?
The next moment, the girl turned her blood-covered face to face with the white qilin, her eyes cold and devoid of any emotion.
"coward."
She opened her mouth and shouted, blood gushing from her throat with a gurgling sound that sounded terrifying.
Hearing the girl's rebuke, Bai Qilin was filled with shame and dared not look her in the eye.
"They have the bloodline of the Ten Fiends, yet instead of rising up to avenge us, they just stand here weeping and wailing."
Upon hearing this, the white Qilin felt even more ashamed, its face turning red. At the same time, a flame of revenge ignited within its heart, growing ever stronger, causing its blood and qi to boil. It longed to roar to the sky and slash at the alien creatures.
"That's not how it is, listen to me."
Bai Qilin wanted to explain, and his voice unconsciously changed, no longer so timid, but heavy and slightly hoarse.
"I know you, you are so frail."
The girl coughed up blood, yet she continued to make sounds.
"That was me in the past," the white Qilin said in a low voice, his eyes filled with a resolute determination and a surge of anger.
"Prove it to me," the girl said.
The next moment, the alien creature that killed her appeared in the gray mist, its body covered with sharp spikes, its face ferocious, its eyes bloodthirsty, and it exuded a terrifying aura of killing intent.
He was ruthless and merciless. With a tearing sound, blood gushed out, and a blood-stained arm was pulled out. He put it in his mouth and chewed it, making a terrifying "crunch, crunch" sound.
Upon seeing this, the white Qilin's eyes turned bloodshot, instantly becoming bloodshot. It was the girl's arm, which had been used as food by the alien creature.
The white Qilin, which had been trembling slightly, suddenly went berserk and pounced on the creature without regard for anything else.
"what!"
The white Qilin roared and engaged the creature in fierce combat. During the battle, it was covered in blood and suffered countless broken bones. Even when it was critically injured and on the verge of death, it did not retreat. Unfortunately, the alien creature was too powerful and it was impossible to defeat it.
But the white Qilin didn't care about anything else. It roared and charged forward, fearless and reckless, even if it meant its own death.
After an unknown amount of time, the white Qilin finally collapsed, exhausted. All its strength was gone, and it couldn't even move a finger.
"Is it still impossible to win?"
The white Qilin was utterly despondent, and a sense of despair welled up in his heart.
Just then, a familiar arm reached out and gently stroked its forehead, as tenderly as ever.
"The Immortal Era has ended, and those people are gone. Your survival is thanks to the blood and lives of our powerful predecessors. You must live well and do your utmost to become stronger. You are a descendant of the Ten Fiends, with boundless potential, no less than the descendants of imperial clans from other realms," the girl said encouragingly.
“Those demons are too strong. I don’t know how to defeat them,” Bai Qilin replied.
"Surpass your fathers." The girl's brief answer gave Bai Qilin a definite goal.
"Surpassing our parents."
The white qilin murmured to itself, the confusion in its eyes slowly disappearing and replaced by determination.
The next moment, the girl disappeared, and the alien creature also disappeared... Before the white Qilin appeared the earth, solid earth, and it finally returned to reality from the illusion of reincarnation.
Looking at the muddy ground, the white Qilin knew that this was proof of its past cowardice. Now, everything was different, and it was no longer associated with cowardice.
Shi Yi stood upright before the white Qilin, expressionless, his eyes cold, silently looking down at it.
Have you realized it?
Taiyin Shiyi asked indifferently.
By now, Bai Qilin understood that everything he had just experienced originated from the person before him.
However, it did not hate Shi Yi; on the contrary, it was grateful to him for helping it shed its cowardice and become brave and resolute.
"I understand."
The white unicorn whispered.
Seeing this, Shi Yi nodded slightly, very satisfied with the changes in the white qilin.
Then, Taiyin Shiyi and Taiyang Shiyi turned around at the same time and headed back the way they came.
"Hehe, want power? If you do, then follow me." Taiyin Shiyi chuckled and said this, seemingly certain that the other party would come.
Looking at those two unfathomable figures, Bai Qilin gritted his teeth, got up from the ground, and followed them.
"This is your ancient treasure."
Shi Yi reached out and tossed something behind him, and a glowing object landed in the white Qilin's hand.
Staring blankly at the ancient treasure in its hand, it wondered how it could have been held by someone else if it hadn't given it its own will. It vaguely understood something.
Then, Bai Qilin quickly followed, knelt down in front of Shi Yishuang, and said, "Greetings, Master."
Shi Yi glanced at it, said nothing, and simply nodded.
"I will accept you as a disciple for now. There are many descendants of the Ten Fiends in the Nine Heavens. If you are not as good as them, then you are not qualified to be my disciple," Shi Yi said.
Upon hearing this, Bai Qilin's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly replied, "Yes."
Following behind Shi Yi, it felt that this master was incredibly mysterious and unfathomable.
Unbeknownst to it, its master was currently contemplating the legendary Qilin Immortal Palace, wondering what it was like and what extraordinary opportunities it held.
"Taking a pure-blooded Qilin as a disciple doesn't seem so bad. The first Ten Fierce Treasure Technique I obtained was the Qilin Treasure Technique. I can learn something from the disciple. If Qilin blood is needed, I can also ask for it. I suppose it doesn't want to be expelled from the sect, right?" Shi Yi thought to himself.
The other cultivators, still dreaming of capturing the Qilin and becoming rich overnight, were still searching in this primeval forest. Little did they know that the white Qilin they longed for had already recognized their master and left with him.
"Buzz!"
The white Qilin's body shimmered with light, and in a flash, it transformed from a Qilin into a white-clad child, following behind Shi Yi's twin bodies.
Along the way, Shi Yi was busy, diligently teaching his newly accepted disciple the contents of the Qilin Technique.
This was the first of the Ten Fierce Techniques that Shi Yi obtained. He had been cultivating it for an unknown period of time and had already mastered the core essence of the Qilin Technique, with the five elements flowing and endlessly regenerating.
The white Qilin eagerly absorbed the profound insights and experiences of the Great Dao bestowed upon it by its master, constantly comparing and verifying them with its own understanding before perfecting and integrating them.
Shi Yi told it that if it wanted to forge its own path, it had to rely on itself. It could learn from others' experiences, but it couldn't simply copy them.
Bai Qilin naturally had no doubts about his master's words.
In addition to the Qilin Method, Shi Yi also taught it the Sacred Peacock Method, which is also the Way of the Five Elements, but it is a different direction from the Qilin Method.
The white Qilin, who had just received the sacred Peacock Technique, looked incredulous. It was truly unimaginable that he had obtained a supreme treasure technique comparable to the Qilin Technique so soon after becoming a disciple.
It quickly kowtowed to thank its master, saying that it had no way to repay him.
Shi Yi waved his hand.
"If you are defeated by someone else in the future and this method loses its reputation, it would be good enough if you didn't reveal my existence."
"Disciple understands." Bai Qilin bowed respectfully.
Shi Yi then told it that he would need it to get into the three major institutes.
Given his identities as a "remnant of a sinful clan," "the number one in the ancient immortal realm," and "one of the three immortal aura masters," going to the three great academies would inevitably be fraught with difficulties. The Changsheng Feng family of the Nine Heavens would certainly obstruct him in secret and try every means to trap him.
Shi Yi didn't want to go through the same twists and turns as Shi Hao in the original story before finally arriving at the Heavenly God Academy. During that time, Shi Hao also suffered the humiliation of becoming a mining slave for the Wang family.
Although he gained some opportunities while mining in the Primordial Ancient Mine, he also lost some time and opportunities from the three major academies. In comparison, Shi Yi would prefer to go directly to the three major academies.
