Upon seeing the giant beast, Shushu immediately recognized it as a Qilin. Before he could even utter a sound of surprise, he felt an overwhelming pressure sweep over him, instantly engulfing him.
The next moment, Shushu felt all his concealment techniques become useless under this powerful pressure.
Even if the millet tries its best to fight back, it's still a drop in the ocean.
Finally, unable to resist this force, the potato could only transform into its original form with a bang, a treasure-hunting mouse about the same size as the previous firefly rabbit.
Sweet Potato never expected that the other party would use this trick to force her to reveal her true form, and she lay on the ground feeling utterly hopeless.
However, the owner of that oppressive aura withdrew it the moment he saw the real form of the yam. Seeing the yam lying on the ground pretending to be dead, the owner even poked the yam's head from a distance.
The sorghum was feeling down and didn't want to deal with the mean-spirited unicorn, so it moved to the side to avoid being poked.
Unexpectedly, the Qilin became attached to it. If the glutinous rice ball moved to the side, the Qilin would follow and poke it.
The mere mention of the millet had ignited his anger, and he felt a surge of rebellious rage, but mindful of the other's strength, he could only reluctantly get up and glare at the other with resentment.
Then she discovered that the Qilin in front of her was not a living Qilin, but the corpse of a Qilin that had been dead for countless years.
That golden light was actually its remaining remnant soul, which no longer appeared as a ball of light, but had transformed into a light blue Qilin.
Compared to the enormous Qilin corpse next to it, it's like one is a giant version and the other is a miniature replica.
Seeing that Shushu was staring at it in a daze, the Qilin stretched out a Qilin claw and poked Shushu: "What, are you surprised?"
The yam nodded, then shook its head. It wanted to ask how the other had perished, but was worried about upsetting it, so it kept quiet and just watched it silently.
As if sensing Shushu's doubts, Qilin simply said, "I accidentally perished in the secret realm back then," and then began to explain why it had brought Shushu over.
To put it simply, Qile keenly sensed the identity of the Divine Beast Shushu and hoped that when Shushu left the secret realm, he could bring its corpse back and send it back to the Qilin clan.
It's quite a coincidence that Qile is right at the border of Daxu, a place that Shushu will definitely go to in the future.
When the sorghum heard this, it was somewhat surprised, but it didn't immediately take on the task. Instead, it asked many questions to make sure that the sorghum wasn't digging a hole for itself before agreeing to the matter.
At the same time, Shushu also told it that it couldn't go back for the time being, and even if it were lucky enough to go back, it wasn't certain when it could.
Qile, perhaps having been trapped for too many years, said after hearing the story that as long as Shushu remembered to send it back, there was no time or year limit.
Thus, with both sides making compromises and concessions, the agreement was reached.
Shushu also took the opportunity to ask the guy why he made her walk for so long before. Why couldn't he just bring her here? It would have been easier, wouldn't it?
After Qile stammered for a long time and only managed to utter three words, "I forgot," Shushu was at a loss for words. It turned out that he had been traveling for several days in vain, and he was speechless.
Qile probably knew that he was being a bit unfair, so he added two drops of Qilin blood to the original reward for Shushu.
Shushu also happened to remember that Jiu Ruo possessed the bloodline of the Qilin, so he took the opportunity to ask if he could give it to Jiu Ruo.
Then, things turned into Qile agreeing to help activate Jiu Ruo's Qilin bloodline.
Then, there was the rat and the Qilin soul. They carefully put away the huge Qilin corpse and watched as Jiu Ruo replaced the Qilin corpse, soaking in that pit with her face contorted.
The reason Jiu Ruo was sent to that pit was because the Qilin aura there was the strongest, and with the addition of Qilin blood, Jiu Ruo's chances of successfully activating her bloodline were much greater.
As they had predicted, the rat and the Qilin soul squatted by the side for several days, and sure enough, Jiu Ruo's body was slowly transforming into a Qilin.
However, it will take quite some time to fully absorb it.
Therefore, after confirming that Jiu Ruo's condition had stabilized, Shushu and Qile left this small world together.
That's right, it's a small world, or more accurately, it's actually the internal space of Qile's abdomen.
When Qile was on the verge of death, he knew that he could not leave the Wuhua Secret Realm, so he exhausted his last bit of power.
First, they found a place nearby, built a simple tomb, and found two tomb keepers, Thunder Tree and Wish Vine, to help guard it.
Afterwards, he separated the internal space and hid it under the Thunder Tree, while placing his physical body inside the internal space.
Finally, a wisp of its soul remained, guarding this tomb, waiting for the day it would encounter the Qilin clan or other divine beast clans and be taken back.
Sure enough, as soon as it sensed that the sweet potato was nearby, it went out with Ruyi and brought it back.
As for Du Tao and Du Ran, that was purely a matter of taking advantage of the situation.
Okay, we've digressed. Back to the present, when Shushu and Qile appeared, they were each occupying their own territory.
With the Thunder Tree guarding the two unicorns in the middle as the boundary, Tianluo and Ruyi each stood on one side, neither willing to yield to the other.
When the two vines saw Shushu and Qile come out together, and very tacitly agreed, Ruyi took Qile away, while Tianluo took Shushu away, and each began to complain.
In short, the two vines are now in a situation where one mountain cannot support two vines.
After hearing this, Shushu was also very troubled. Ruyi was Qile's tomb keeper and guardian. Since Qile had followed him, Ruyi naturally had to follow as well.
But Tianluo was one of the first companions to follow him, and Shushu couldn't bear to see it suffer.
After much thought, the best solution was to separate them, but Tianluo was an all-powerful entity in its own space, leaving Shushu in a real dilemma.
Just as Shushu was thinking about setting aside a separate area, Thunder Tree came over with a bunch of stuff.
