Chapter 29: The Origin of Wuyuan

The nine alliance leaders, along with 200 powerful warriors from the Nine Alliances, rushed out from beneath the ground. Seeing that Wuyuan had consumed three Soul Beads, they did not attack him immediately.
Wuyuan’s beast form gave the nine alliance leaders a sense of familiarity.
They examined Wuyuan carefully.
“This beast resembles a dragon turtle—with a dragon’s head and turtle patterns, possessing both formidable attack and defense capabilities,” said Kongxu, the leader of the Mulin Alliance in the Fiery Realm, in astonishment.
Dragon turtles were also a powerful branch of the dragon race, naturally gifted with strong attack and defense skills—truly the perfect beast race.
The other alliance leaders nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
“I sense the aura of the Phoenix Feathered Winged Horse in it. I have an intuition that this beast is related to the one we killed before,” said Liuying, the leader of the Tuba Alliance of Beasts, firmly.
Hearing this, the alliance leaders grew anxious and stared at Wuyuan more intently.
When the Ruins Realm Divine World was opened last time, two subordinates led by Emperor Hao—Qingmu and Shuilin—each experienced unique events. Besides obtaining divine artifacts, they also acquired a pet beast each in the Ruins Realm Divine World. Qingmu got a dragon turtle, while Shuilin got a Phoenix Feathered Winged Horse.
Unfortunately, after obtaining these pets, they failed to reap their benefits and quickly lost them.
The nine alliance leaders had interacted with Qingmu and Shuilin in the Ruins Realm Divine World and were thus aware of their pets’ situations. As such, they still remembered the auras of the dragon turtle and the Phoenix Feathered Winged Horse.
Changxin fell silent for a moment before asking doubtfully, “Guys, is it possible that this beast is a descendant of the dragon turtle and the Phoenix Feathered Winged Horse?”
These words startled the other alliance leaders.
“It’s very likely. Among all beasts, none possess the combined aura of the Five Elements. Only the descendants of the dragon turtle and the Phoenix Feathered Winged Horse could give birth to such a miraculous beast,” said Yanshui, the leader of the Shuiyang Alliance in the Fiery Realm, calmly.
“If it truly is a descendant of the dragon turtle and the Phoenix Feathered Winged Horse, then this beast is our enemy. We should eliminate it now while it still has the strength of a Heavenly Soul Beast,” said Jiqiong, the leader of the Mufeng Alliance in the Immortal Realm, with a murderous intent.

“Yes, back then we killed the Dragon Turtle in the Immortal Realm, and in the Cultivation Realm we killed the Phoenix Feathered Peng Winged Horse. We have already incurred enmity with this demon beast. Given its uniqueness, once it reaches the level of a Heavenly Soul Demon, we will kill it then. Now, we’ll just kill it right away,” said Si Ren, the leader of the Magic Realm’s Golden Slash Alliance, coldly.

The nine alliance leaders, through their immortal senses, demonic senses, and demon senses, quickly reached a consensus and agreed unanimously to kill Wu Yuan.

Wu Yuan, who was flying in the air, immediately sensed the piercing and merciless gazes of the nine alliance leaders, filled with icy killing intent.

“Do you want to kill me?” Wu Yuan spoke up, his expression quite relaxed.

Since Wu Yuan knew that Qu Yi was nearby and could come to his aid at any time, he didn’t need to worry about his safety, nor did he need to fear the alliance leaders’ murderous intent.

“That’s right. You know very well, so there’s no need for us to remind you,” replied Zhong Lei, the leader of the Magic Realm’s Fire Slaughter Alliance, radiating an explosive aura.

Wu Yuan was puzzled. These nine alliance leaders had only met him for the first time—how could they be so cruel, determined to eradicate him completely?

“Nine alliance leaders, we’ve never met before, and it seems we haven’t incurred any enmity either. Why do you want to kill me as soon as you see me?” Wu Yuan voiced his doubts, still flying calmly in the air.

Not only Wu Yuan but also the more than 200 powerful warriors behind the nine alliance leaders were deeply confused. Were these nine alliance leaders trying to hide something?

As for the Rock Beast, which was lying on the ground wailing in pain, it paid no attention to what was happening.

Chang Xin smiled lightly and said casually, “Well, since you can’t escape our grasp now, we might as well tell you the truth so you can die with peace of mind. You’re a demon beast that ascended from the Cultivation Realm, right?”

Seeing Chang Xin’s attitude, the other alliance leaders also didn’t rush to act.

Hearing Chang Xin’s question, Wu Yuan looked at him in surprise. He hadn’t expected the leader of the Immortal Realm to know his origin, and he was greatly puzzled.

“Yes, I come from the Cultivation Realm,” Wu Yuan replied truthfully without hiding anything.

Chang Xin nodded, as if he had expected Wu Yuan to answer so firmly, then smiled and said, “Then there’s no mistake. Since you come from the Cultivation Realm, you must have heard of Emperor Hao. However, you might not know that Emperor Hao once went to the Cultivation Realm with two subordinates, and your parents were their favorite beasts back then. Your father was a dragon turtle, who was killed by us in the Ruin Domain Divine Realm, while your mother, in the Cultivation Realm, was also hunted to death by us. Now, you should understand why we must kill you.” Eradicate the roots! Hearing Chang Xin’s words, Wu Yuan’s massive body froze mid-air, his entire being in chaos. This was the first time he learned about his parents’ origins, and with that knowledge, he also realized that they were already dead. His mind went blank, and suddenly he remembered his time on Cuimu Planet in the Cultivation Realm. As a child, Wu Yuan lived alone on Fanglao Mountain on Cuimu Planet, constantly fearing attacks from powerful monsters, living in constant caution. How many times had he been threatened by fierce monsters, how many times had he nearly lost his life, how many times had he endured the agony of loneliness… The scene shifted to the appearance of Qu Yi. At that time, Wu Yuan, who was still in the later stage of the Foundation Building phase, smelled the blood of an Iron-Headed Lion at the Golden Core stage and wanted to devour its flesh. By chance, Qu Yi took him under his care. From then on, Wu Yuan was nurtured with great care by Qu Yi. While telling Wu Yuan some things, Chang Xin also omitted some information—that Wu Yuan’s father, the dragon turtle, had consumed the Soul Gold Pearl and Soul Blue Pearl in the Ruin Domain Divine Realm, while Wu Yuan’s mother, the Phoenix-Feathered Winged Horse, had consumed the Soul Red Pearl, Soul Green Pearl, and Soul Yellow Pearl there as well. Neither of these two beasts was immediately overwhelmed by the impact of two or three soul pearls and went mad, losing their senses. As the owners of these beasts, Qing Mu and Shui Lin were at a loss and came up with a desperate plan: to let the two beasts merge their bodies. By chance, during the process of their bodies merging, the dragon turtle and the Phoenix-Feathered Winged Horse combined all five soul pearls into one, creating an embryo for their offspring—Wu Yuan. Later, Qing Mu took Wu Yuan to Cuimu Planet. Knowing he couldn’t escape the pursuit of the fifteen powerful beings across the three realms, Qing Mu left Wu Yuan on Fanglao Mountain to fend for himself. Over the years, Wu Yuan never had to worry about insufficient soul strength, thanks to his innate fusion of the five soul pearls, which meant he already mastered the complete laws of the five elements.

Therefore, as long as Wuyuan has enough energy, it can keep upgrading. While Wuyuan was frozen in mid-air, Chang Xin and the other nine alliance leaders flashed into action, their eyes gleaming with cold intent as they rushed to kill Wuyuan at once. “You bastards! How despicable—trying to kill my friend!” Suddenly, Qu Yi appeared beside Wuyuan, scolding the nine alliance leaders harshly. “What…?” The nine leaders were filled with rage—Qu Yi had appeared at the worst possible moment, ruining everything again. Hearing Qu Yi’s words, they grew even more panicked. They never expected that this strangely shaped beast had a connection with Qu Yi, making things even more complicated. After all, the nine leaders had already revealed the truth to Wuyuan, turning them into mortal enemies. If they couldn’t kill Wuyuan, they would face even more trouble. With Qu Yi as a headache already, and now Wuyuan, who held endless potential, the nine leaders were overwhelmed. “What are you waiting for? Attack now! If Qu Yi can escape, can this beast do the same?” Chang Xin shouted coldly. His words reminded everyone that Qu Yi could use a teleportation artifact to leave at any time, but Wuyuan had none. Moreover, he was only a six-star Tianpo Beast—surely the nine leaders could kill him. “Kill it! We must eliminate this beast!” “All members of the Nine Alliances, attack together!” In an instant, the nine leaders roared and soared into the air, charging at Wuyuan. Over 200 strong warriors from the Nine Alliances followed them, ready to surround and kill Wuyuan. Qu Yi shook his head and sneered, “You worthless fools still think you can kill someone? What a joke.” Suddenly, Wuyuan reverted to human form, standing tall and furious, his eyes blood-red as he glared at the nine leaders. Qu Yi grabbed Wuyuan, and suddenly both of them disappeared, leaving the warriors of the Nine Alliances empty-handed. “Impossible! It’s understandable for Qu Yi to vanish, but how did that beast disappear too?” “What’s going on? This world makes no sense. Does that beast also have a teleportation artifact?” “It’s over! From now on, our Nine Alliances will face revenge from two powerful enemies. Life will be tough from here on.” … The warriors of the Nine Alliances couldn’t comprehend Wuyuan’s sudden disappearance. Their minds were filled with confusion, and a mood of sorrow filled the air, followed by an uneasy silence.

Of course, Qu Yi took Wu Yuan with him and entered the Dimensional Sphere. Now, Qu Yi no longer needed to worry about the nine alliance leaders guessing that he possessed a spatial divine artifact, as he had resolved to kill all nine of them with his own hands before they ascended to the divine realm, thus keeping his secret about the spatial divine artifact hidden. Inside the Dimensional Sphere, Qu Yi left Wu Yuan alone on a planet, allowing him to vent his hatred and anger on his own. “Uuuu…” It wasn’t a cry—it was Wu Yuan’s frantic howling, shaking the entire planet with this terrifying roar. Meanwhile, lying on the soft chair, Qu Yi casually said, “The Nine Alliances can perish from this moment onward.”
