Chapter 4: The Three Brothers of Demonic Beasts

When there was still the Cultivation Realm, Qu Yi also gave one of his Soul Compasses to Wu Yuan. Naturally, when Wu Yuan ascended to the Demonic Realm, Qu Yi immediately sensed the fluctuations from his Soul Compass and knew that Wu Yuan had just come from the Cultivation Realm to the Demonic Realm.
“Haha, Wu Yuan has also arrived. Not bad—all the locations Wu Yuan has ascended to are not far from this planet,” Qu Yi laughed.
Immediately afterward, Qu Yi took out the Boundless Star Map and traveled directly to all the planets where Wu Yuan had ascended.
……
Demonic Realm, Mulin Star Region, Fengyuan Star.
On a plateau on one of the planets, a handsome young man suddenly appeared atop a snow-capped peak.
“Ugh, I, Wu Yuan, have finally ascended too. Qu Yi, Wu Qing, I will work hard in cultivation and will go to the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm to find you guys someday.”
This young man was none other than Wu Yuan, who had just ascended.
After reaching the Mahayana stage, his dragon-headed human form from the Tribulation stage had transformed into a complete human form—one of a strikingly handsome man.
“Where did you come from, nameless demonic beast? How dare you disturb my cultivation!”
As soon as Wu Yuan shouted from the snow peak, a burly man with a face full of bumps rushed out, glaring fiercely at him. The demonic energy emanating from this burly man had already reached the level of a one-star Earth Soul Demon.
Wu Yuan, who had just ascended and was only at the one-star Yuan Soul Demon level, was immediately pressured by this powerful one-star Earth Soul Demon, causing him to collapse onto the snow.
“Ugh, this isn’t fun at all. I encountered such an ugly creature right away,” Wu Yuan said in panic.
Hearing this, the burly man flew into a rage. He drew a snow-white long sword and shouted, “You little brat, how dare you insult me? Hand over your life!”
This burly man’s true form was a Stabbing Pig, with five sharp spines on its back. After transforming into a human, those spines fell off and were later cultivated by the Stabbing Pig into its own life demon weapon. This Stabbing Sword was also at the one-star Earth Soul Demon level, capable of killing Wu Yuan with a single strike.
“Ugh, what bad luck! Such bad luck!” Wu Yuan became even more panicked.
“Die!” The Stabbing Pig, unable to tolerate this any longer, picked up its Stabbing Sword and charged at him.
Just then—
“Wu Yuan, someone wants to kill you. I’ll help you kill him.”
Qu Yi’s voice suddenly rang out, and at the same time, the Stabbing Pig’s body flew wildly before disintegrating mid-air.

“Ugh, Qu Yi, you’ve finally arrived.” Wu Yuan suddenly stood up, rushed into Qu Yi’s arms, and shouted in ecstasy.
Qu Yi helplessly pushed Wu Yuan away from him.
“Wu Yuan, I never expected that after turning into a human, you’d be so handsome,” Qu Yi teased.
Wu Yuan laughed heartily and straightened his posture, clearly quite confident.
“Huh… Wu Yuan, your aura of Yao Yuan seems to be a mixture of the five elements’ Yao Yuan energies,” Qu Yi exclaimed in surprise.
The aura emitted by Wu Yuan was a blend of the five primal energies: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
Wu Yuan was stunned for a moment before smiling and saying, “Ugh, great! I was worried that after ascending, I could only absorb one type of primal energy. It seems I can still absorb all five.”
Qu Yi was astonished.
“With such a handsome appearance, yet having a heart that craves raw meat—truly, you can’t judge by looks,” Qu Yi thought to himself.
Seeing Qu Yi’s shocked expression, Wu Yuan laughed and said, “Ugh, Qu Yi, go catch five demon beasts for me. I want to eat meat.”
Qu Yi was speechless.
But he immediately vanished and soon brought back five human-shaped demon beasts, each with one of the five elements.
“Wu Yuan, these five demon beasts are all at the two-star Yuan Po Demon level. They were part of a group of intelligent white rats that we slaughtered earlier. I caught them for you. Try devouring them,” Qu Yi said with a smile.
Ugh!
Without responding, Wu Yuan let out a joyful cry and instantly reverted to his beast form—a ten-meter-long beast with a dragon’s head, a horse’s body, eagle wings, a phoenix’s tail, and turtle patterns. The dragon head opened wide and swallowed the five beast forms in one gulp.
Gulping!
With just one sound, Wu Yuan devoured the five beast forms, his aura surging rapidly, seemingly on the verge of reaching the two-star Yuan Po Demon level.
Having ascended just now and already advancing from one-star to two-star Yuan Po Demon—such speed would surely attract countless demons from the demon world to capture Wu Yuan and study his unique physical traits.
Qu Yi shook his head repeatedly at this sight.
“I can understand why Wu Yuan, with a heart like a Asura, can quickly advance to a six-star Human Soul Demon. But here, just by devouring humans, one can advance—this really exceeds my expectations,” Qu Yi thought to himself.
Still, Qu Yi was happy to have such a unique beast by his side; it was undoubtedly his good luck.

“Ugh, Qu Yi, let me enter the Tiny Realm Ball quickly. I need to get some good sleep,” Wu Yuan said lazily after devouring five demonic beasts and immediately returning to his human form.
Qu Yi chuckled and promptly put Wu Yuan inside the Tiny Realm Ball, allowing him to quietly refine the demonic essence of those five beasts.
At that moment, the consciousness of the Artifact God transmitted a message: “Qu Yi, I’ve detected that in Wu Yuan’s dantian space, there are also five energy clusters that can absorb the primal energies of the five elements. Moreover, Wu Yuan’s Soul Flower is quite special—it’s formed by combining the soul flowers of five superior celestial demon souls. It hasn’t awakened yet, but as long as Wu Yuan continues to consume the primal energies of the five elements, part of its Soul Flower will awaken automatically.”
In other words, Wu Yuan didn’t need to worry about his soul realm at all; he just needed to consume demonic essence.
Qu Yi was once again greatly surprised upon hearing this.
“The world is full of wonders. I thought my own experiences were already amazing, but Wu Yuan is even more enviable,” Qu Yi sighed.
In cultivation, the most difficult aspect is the soul realm. Yet Wu Yuan didn’t need to worry about it at all.
“Hehe, indeed enviable… Hmm, Qu Yi, I’ve noticed three demonic beasts tracking you. Haha, they even followed from Wind Shock Star all the way here. How interesting,” the Artifact God transmitted joyfully.
Qu Yi froze for a moment before realizing that after he revealed six demonic artifacts from Wind Shock Star, some demonic beasts wanted to take advantage of him to obtain the other artifacts he possessed.
“Artifact God, what’s the cultivation level of those three demonic beasts? What’s their true form?” Qu Yi asked immediately.
“They’re of the Six-Star Earth Soul Demon level. Their true form is the Dragon-Tailed Snow Cat,” the Artifact God replied with a smile.
Qu Yi nodded, a smile appearing on his lips.
※※※
The Transportation Hall of Wind Source Star.
Qu Yi arrived alone, paid five Demon Essence Stones, received a number, and waited for transportation.
In a corner of the Transportation Hall…
“Elder brother, second brother, truly, hard work pays off. The three of us have been chasing closely and finally caught up with Ka Xiu Li.”
It turned out that the three Dragon-Tailed Snow Cat brothers were already in the Transportation Hall.
“Third brother, the number Ka Xiu Li got just now is 333. Go and negotiate with that demon beast to get the name of the planet he’s heading to,” the eldest brother ordered.
Immediately, the third brother went to the number-assignment area in the Transportation Hall, gave three Demon Essence Stones to that demon beast, and learned about Qu Yi’s destination planet.

“Wind Luo Star,” the third brother immediately sent a message to his two elder brothers.
Soon after, he paid fifteen Demon Essence Stones at the registration desk to request a transfer to Wind Luo Star.
A while later, Qu Yi entered the spatial teleportation array.
Another while passed, and the three Dragon-Tailed Snow Cat brothers also teleported there.
After arriving at Wind Luo Star, Qu Yi walked slowly toward the exterior of the teleportation hall. Just as he reached the entrance, the three Dragon-Tailed Snow Cat brothers also arrived and spotted Qu Yi about to leave the hall.
“Perfect. This Ka Xiu Li needs to rest here on Wind Luo Star—this is our chance,” the three-headed Dragon-Tailed Snow Cats thought.
Qu Yi took off and flew straight to a dangerous area on Wind Luo Star. This dangerous area was meant for Yuan Yao, but for Qu Yi, it posed no threat at all.
The three-headed Dragon-Tailed Snow Cats followed from a distance.
Poison Scorpion Mountain Range.
The entire mountain range was dominated by poison scorpions—hundreds of millions of them, including some that were high-ranking Yuan Soul Yao scorpions. This made other beast communities on Wind Luo Star too afraid to enter this area.
At that moment, Qu Yi arrived at a high mountain in the Poison Scorpion Mountain Range.
As soon as he landed, hundreds of thousands of poison scorpions rushed from the mountain peak and surrounded him.
Some of these scorpions had already reached the level of Yuan Yao, yet they still remained in their scorpion form, without transforming into human shapes.
Qu Yi watched them with a smile.
“Die!” When the scorpions got closer, Qu Yi stomped his right foot.
Woodly Immortal Essence flowed like water down the mountain, from the peak to the base, carrying with it numerous alternate dimensions.
Disappear! Disappear! Disappear!
The vicious poison scorpions vanished the moment they touched the Immortal Essence, as if consumed and destroyed by those alternate dimensions.
All hundreds of thousands of scorpions died.
The three Dragon-Tailed Snow Cat brothers, who had been following Qu Yi, sensed his movements and naturally witnessed what had just happened.
“A Earth Soul Yao!”
The three Dragon-Tailed Snow Cat brothers were also on a mountain at that moment, but their bodies instantly turned as cold as ice.
“We three actually dared to target an Earth Soul Yao!”
At this thought, they all wanted to fly away immediately.
But by then, Qu Yi’s figure had blocked their path.
“Three of you, you’ve been following me for a long time. Still planning to run now?” Qu Yi smiled as he looked at the three-headed Dragon-Tailed Snow Cats.
“Elder! We didn’t!” the three-headed Dragon-Tailed Snow Cats cried in terror.

But how could Qu Yi let them escape? With a wave of his right hand, a great Xianyuan net was cast directly at the three of them. The three-headed dragon-tailed snow cat only put up a symbolic resistance before passing out immediately.
