Chapter 814: Chapter 594: Qilin Beast

"This time, coming back across dimensions, the concentration of cosmic energy on Earth has increased again, but the pollution within the energy has also increased. If this continues, everyone on Earth will be completely polluted, and this is not a good thing."

Li Yi at this moment performed the Cloud Riding Technique, flying towards the Golden Academy.

Although he was flying at a high speed, he forgot that this was a dangerous zone, and after the Sky Tipping event and various cross-border gates were opened, the dangerous zone became much more perilous than before.

Even Transcendent beings are reduced to prey; only mythical creatures can dominate a territory. Besides, there are many visitors from other worlds, some of whom are powerful and hostile to Earthlings.

Just as he had flown for a while.

Suddenly.

A roar came from a lush green mountain range, followed by a red light swiftly attacking. This light was extremely perilous; just appearing was enough to give Li Yi’s soul a strong warning.

But the speed of this light was too fast; even if your soul warns you, by the time you react, it’s already late, and the attack had arrived.

However, Li Yi’s strength now was vastly different from before. Coupled with just returning across dimensions, the Power of Incense was still active, so he instantly reacted without any hesitation, directly using the Cloud Riding Technique.

His form suddenly turned into a thick mist and dispersed abruptly.

The red light passed through the mist, piercing the sky, shattering a cloud layer, and finally vanished at the end of the sky.

Subsequently, within the nearby mist, Li Yi’s figure appeared. He stood on Xiangyun, his gaze cold, looking towards the direction from which the attack came.

"Transcendent creatures possess intelligence, they evaluate the strength of both parties to decide whether to act. In the dangerous zone, there aren’t many creatures with the strength to dare attack me... Furthermore, the power of that prior strike was unbelievably strong."

Li Yi did not restrain his aura, as this could reduce some unnecessary troubles.

But even with his aura spreading, he was attacked, indicating the other party already regarded him as prey, thinking they could hunt Li Yi down.

At this moment, the lush mountain seemed to be shaking, then a red, flame-wrapped creature unexpectedly leapt out from a ruptured mountain. Its very appearance caused nearby forest to ignite, and an astonishing heat set the area ablaze.

Li Yi, upon seeing this creature, couldn’t help but pause.

This being appeared much like the legendary Fire Qilin, with a dragon head and ox body.

"It’s not a mythical creature, Qilin; should be the descendant of Qilin, impure bloodline, unable to reach the level of true mythical creatures, but close." He scrutinized the other party seriously.

Although it looked like a Qilin at a glance, its physical characteristics didn’t completely match, yet its strength was indeed intimidating.

"Perfect, I’m hungry; I’ll slay it to eat, replenish some Qi-Blood." Li Yi felt the hunger within his body, intending not to flee but to hunt this creature and fill his belly.

Perhaps sensing Li Yi’s intention, the flame-entwined dangerous creature roared, disappearing from its place, it instantly arrived before him.

Iron hooves rose, sealing the entire world, as two massive hoof marks landed, resembling two towering mountains carrying divine might that intimidated the beholder.

This was the Qilin Beast’s Innate Divine Ability, named Qilin Step.

Although it was not a true Qilin, it possessed part of the Qilin inheritance, hence it could be the region’s lord despite not being a mythical creature, and Li Yi passing through its territory was undoubtedly an affront.

Thus, killing Li Yi, the intruder, was its instinct.

"Good timing."

Li Yi’s pupils suddenly contracted, sensing the dominance and ferocity of the creature, yet his current self was vastly different, possessing Cultivation at the Fourth Level of Five Qi Realm, coupled with Daoist Skill taught by Immortal Xiang Xiangzi, and his vast Incense Fire. Fighting beyond his level was no problem.

He clenched his fist, then two brilliant lights converged into fist marks.

This was the River Dividing Land Method.

But due to Li Yi channeling the four Five Elements Qi within his body, the fist marks faintly presented four colors.

He punched out.

The fist marks, accompanied by the River Dividing Land Method, headed towards the two hoof marks.

Boom!

The heavens and earth shook; under the residual power, the mountains were flattened.

At this moment, the Qilin Beast showed a hint of shock in its eyes, realizing it had underestimated the prey’s strength, even sensing a hint of danger.

But its intuition wasn’t wrong.

The next moment.

Li Yi’s fist marks, under the Power of Incense Belief, instantly pierced through the two hoof marks sealing the sky, simultaneously cutting through all Daoist Skills, striking the Qilin Beast.

The red Scale Armor shattered, flesh exploded, two fist marks penetrated through the creature’s body.

"Roar!"

The Qilin Beast howled at this moment, its huge body unable to sustain itself, plummeting from mid-air, even the flames entwining its body rapidly extinguishing after sustaining heavy injury.

Li Yi stood with a clenched fist, overlooking the creature to prevent it from launching a counterattack before it died.

However, he clearly underestimated his own strength.

Using the power of incense, he executed the River Dividing Land Method, and with the mana from over forty acupoints in his body, combined with the Dragon and Tiger Power, such a strike was extraordinary. It was only natural that the Qilin Beast couldn’t withstand it.

After being severely injured, the Qilin Beast could no longer stand, and its aura grew increasingly weaker, ultimately letting out a mournful cry as it died on the spot.

Due to its misjudgment, it unnecessarily lost its life.

"It’s dead?" Li Yi was somewhat surprised, but his perception wouldn’t be wrong; this creature, nearly like a mythical creature, was indeed killed by him.

He observed again, and only after confirming that it was truly dead, did he descend to investigate.

Although the Qilin Beast was dead, its massive essence of flesh and blood remained, each drop of blood being a true elixir, potent enough to transform an ordinary person’s constitution, endowing them with Qilin Power.

The earth, after absorbing it, could quickly grow Qilin Grass and bear various exotic fruits.

"Heaven and Earth Qi Gathering Technique." At this moment, Li Yi did not waste any time and immediately activated the Daoist Skill to gather the essence of Qi and blood.

This Heaven and Earth Qi Gathering Technique from the Heavenly Dao Sect was domineering; not only could it gather nature’s spiritual energy, but also people’s Qi and blood, essence, and Qi. If Li Yi wished, he could drain the essence from an entire city in a short time, reducing its inhabitants to skeletons.

It sounds almost like a Demon Skill.

In fact, it’s a legitimate Qi Collection Skill from the Daoist sect; after learning it, Li Yi naturally wouldn’t behave like those of the Demon Path and drain human essence, as that would be too cruel. However, he had no mental burden in extracting the essence of Qi and blood from this Qilin Beast.

As the Daoist Skill operated,

The surrounding flowing blood transformed into strands of red Qi and blood, converging around Li Yi. Meanwhile, the Qilin Beast’s body rapidly shriveled at a pace visible to the naked eye.

Even its red scale armor began to dull.

All the essence was being collected, forming into pieces of elixir in front of Li Yi.

This near-mythical creature’s existence was indeed extraordinary.

Li Yi collected for nearly half an hour before the Qilin Beast turned into a withered corpse, with not even a trace of marrow essence left in its bones. Any passing dog would shake its head upon seeing it.

But the half-hour of collecting yielded over a hundred elixirs.

Some elixirs were crimson like blood, some pristine as jade, others like emerald, each different.

Since Li Yi had no knowledge of alchemy, these elixirs each had different effects.

If an expert in alchemy from the Tri-Floral Realm were to take action, they could likely craft over a hundred Qilin Pills in moments.

But Li Yi wasn’t picky; he grabbed a handful and stuffed them into his mouth.

As soon as the elixirs were consumed, they transformed into a surge of robust essence of Qi and blood coursing through his body.

Li Yi’s heart beat like a massive furnace, quickly digesting and refining the essence of Qi and blood, for his body was very hungry. Though the elixir contained a vast amount of essence and Qi, it wasn’t enough to satisfy his body’s needs.

In just a moment, the elixirs were fully digested, but due to the supplement of Qi and blood, while his body operated, new Divine Blood began to be nurtured, gradually filling the acupoints.

But not a single acupoint was filled before the feeling of hunger resurfaced.

"In the world of Incense Fire God, the progress is too rapid, causing my body to lag behind. Even killing a mythical creature wouldn’t satisfy my current needs," Li Yi thought to himself.

He didn’t linger and once again employed the Cloud Riding Technique, flying towards the Golden Academy.

As he flew, he consumed all the remaining elixirs.

These over a hundred elixirs represented the entire corporeal essence of a Qilin Beast, but even so, it was just a good meal for him.

However, he would soon be hungry again.

Because Li Yi was already a cultivator at the Fourth Level of the Five Qi Realm. At this stage, the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys, all the five organs, would undergo unimaginable enhancement and transformation, so his speed in digesting food and circulating Qi and blood was very fast.

Of course, only this way could he accelerate the nurturing of Divine Blood and satisfy the needs of a being at this level.

At this moment, Li Yi somewhat missed the Barbaric World.

In terms of Qi and blood nourishment and essence elixirs, no world could compare to the Barbaric World, where people devoured Jiao Dragons and mutant beasts. In the past, he would be full from just a bite and unable to digest, but now he could probably compete with those of the Barbaric World.

With these thoughts in mind,

Li Yi soon arrived at the Golden Academy through Cloud Riding.

Compared to before crossing worlds, the Golden Academy hadn’t changed at all, with the only change being the increase in students and the expansion of several campus areas.

Moreover, after accepting the technology of the Sixth World, the architecture here was gradually becoming more sci-fi.

Various spaceships and warcraft came and went constantly.
