Chapter 171 The Unicorn Beast with Personality
In the ancient city of Spring and Autumn Period, there were endless battles.

The attraction of the peerless dragon marrow is beyond imagination, the vision is astonishing, and it can even bring about thunder disasters, which gives rise to endless reverie.

Li Zhi didn't care what kind of trouble Princess Yudie would encounter.

It is only natural to improve the quality of the dragon marrow here and take away half of it. Cause and effect will take care of themselves and it will not bring him unnecessary trouble.

Moreover, from beginning to end, Li Zhi never revealed his true appearance, and a layer of hazy mist obscured his true appearance.

Even if the other party had the third eye, he would not be able to see through the fog. This was a method of concealing one's appearance and aura that he came up with after he understood the ghost mask left by the ruthless emperor on the ancient tea tree.

Even Ye Fan’s Yuantian Divine Eye could block it, let alone Princess Yudie.

Unlike Li Zhi who left the Spring and Autumn Ancient City leisurely, Princess Yudie immediately became the target of the Chiyang Kingdom's iron-blooded army after she came to open the dragon's lair.

The strange fragrance, similar to that of the elixir of immortality, was so tempting.

There is no need to open the jade tripod to see, everyone knows that the dragon marrow picked by Princess Yudie is the best dragon marrow.

Ordinary dragon marrow can only extend the life of ordinary cultivators by a few years, but top-grade dragon marrow can extend the life of even the powerful ones by a hundred years.

Li Zhi's upgraded dragon marrow reduced the thirty-six drops of dragon marrow to just a few drops.

But the effect of each drop is several times that of the previous top-grade dragon marrow.

I'm afraid it can extend the life of a powerful person by three to five hundred years, which is comparable to a semi-divine medicine.

For a time, the battle situation in the Spring and Autumn Ancient City became extremely fierce.

All this had little to do with Li Zhi. After he walked out of the dragon vein, he set out on the road to Qi Shi Mansion.

At this moment, the Qi Shi Mansion has gathered the peerless geniuses from Zhongzhou, Nanling, Beiyuan, Donghuang and Ximo.

Each of them is blessed with great fortune. As long as they operate properly, the rewards they can get will be very tempting.

If he could suppress everyone, he might be able to seize the fortune of the entire Beidou Ancient Star in one fell swoop.

Of course, Li Zhi also knows that it is not easy to achieve this goal.

Some people have already become powerful, and Li Zhi is not their match for the time being.

However, as long as he can stand out from the crowd and make people recognize his strength from the bottom of their hearts, then it will be no different from defeating them.

Moreover, there are many insights of the sages left in the Qishi Mansion, which is exactly what Li Zhi lacks.

We can see from those insights that they understand Tao, and can even place themselves in the long river of history and compare their current strength with the ancients.

In this world, there is something called Divine Source Liquid that can allow people to seal themselves.

So if a monk wants to become a flawless hexagonal warrior, he cannot just focus on the monks of the same period, but must test his own strength in the dimension of history.

Only those who can withstand the test of history are qualified, have the opportunity, and have the possibility of achieving enlightenment.

Among those who have been able to achieve enlightenment throughout the ages, the proportion of contemporary geniuses is not that high.

Therefore, a cultivator must have an accurate understanding of his own strength and must not make the mistake of "being invincible in the world and having enemies coming from the sky".

One's own strength must be able to stand the test of history, and one must be good at comparing the differences between ancient and modern strong people and oneself.

Only in this way can we reach the end of the great road of heaven and earth.

Only in this way can one break through all the paths and achieve the status of the Great Emperor.

Only in this way can one step on all the ways of heaven and earth and condense the imprint of the great way of the Heavenly Emperor level.

Only in this way can I remain unaffected by the long river of time and remain consistent.

Although the ancient city of Spring and Autumn is millions of miles away from Qishifu.

But Li Zhi used the Xuanyu Platform to speed up his journey, and in just half a day, he crossed the endless territory and arrived near the fairy mountain where the Qi Shi Mansion was located.

But he did not enter the Qi Shi Mansion immediately, but settled down in a nearby city.

Before entering Qi Shi Mansion, there was another little guy he needed to deal with.

Arriving at an inn, Li Zhi stayed in a cave specially prepared for monks.

He then completely sealed the cave door before taking out the mini dragon's nest.

Inside the dragon's nest, there are three purple dragons transformed from divine dragon marrow.

The little dragon marrow dragon was locked there tightly by the dragon energy in the mini dragon's nest and could not move at all.

Smelling the rich aroma emanating from the dragon marrow, Li Zhi took out a white jade bottle and put them away.

As he said, they would share it in half when they met, Li Zhi would definitely not take even one extra drop of dragon marrow.

After nine thunder tribulations, only seven out of the thirty-six drops of dragon marrow survived the tribulation and were promoted to divine dragon marrow that could transform into a human form.

Princess Yudie took three and Li Zhi took three.

As for the last piece of dragon marrow, it has already entered the stomach of another little guy present.

Putting the mini dragon nest in his palm, Li Zhi said to the dragon nest: "Come out, little guy. You ate a divine dragon marrow from me. How long do you plan to hide? And what do you plan to use to compensate me?"

"I, I didn't mean it, I was just hungry. And the little dragon ran into my mouth on its own. As the saying goes, if you don't eat the meat that's been put in your mouth, you're either a coward or a fool. I'm not a coward, nor am I stupid, so I ate it naturally."

A timid and childish voice, as if that of a child of only three or four years old, came from the mini dragon's nest. The voice was coherent, and seemed both fearful and bold, which made Li Zhi feel quite magical.

Then, a small khaki head stretched out from the dragon's nest, and a pair of clear and transparent big eyes stared at Li Zhi again and again, as if to confirm whether Li Zhi would hurt it.

Looking at this very cute little Qilin beast, a smile suddenly appeared on Li Zhi's face. His intuition told him that this little beast would give him a unique experience.

"Little guy, what's your name? Why are you being chased? Where are your parents?" Li Zhi asked the little beast in a gentle tone.

With a "whoosh", the little Qilin jumped out of the mini dragon's nest and rushed directly towards the door, as if it was very afraid of Li Zhi.

"Bang!" Unfortunately, the door was restricted by him, and the little beast seemed to have hit an iron plate.

"Ouch!" After calling out, the little beast immediately fled towards the ground, but there were also restrictions on the ground, and it crashed into it again.

This time, it was in so much pain that it stretched out one of its unicorn paws to rub its forehead.

"After eating my food, you want to leave without saying goodbye. Isn't that a bit too much?" Li Zhi watched the little beast's "performance" with a smile.

The little Qilin seemed to realize that it couldn't get away, so it jumped onto the table, raised its head and bared its teeth at Li Zhi for a while, then said: "You humans are all bad people."

"What's wrong with us humans?" Li Zhi found it interesting and continued to ask.

"Since I was born, you humans have captured me five times for no reason. You want me to be your mount? Forget it. I will never let you stinky humans ride on me." The little Qilin said very proudly.

Li Zhi immediately became interested. This little Qilin was actually a female Qilin.

"What are you doing? Perverted human, don't look at me like that. Otherwise I will get angry, and my bite will hurt." The little Qilin seemed to have a very sharp sense. It felt that Li Zhi's eyes had changed when he looked at it, and immediately took a few steps back, almost falling off its seat.

After hearing what the Qilin said, Li Zhi immediately felt a flock of crows flying over his head, and then he said word by word: "Little guy, I solemnly tell you that I am not a pervert, I am a normal male human being."

The little Qilin was so frightened that he jumped onto the cabinet next to him, then hid in the corner and shouted at Li Zhi: "You are a pervert, a pervert, and a big pervert."

Although the little beast looked very frightened, it was merciless and kept repeating that Li Zhi was a pervert.

Li Zhi pointed at it with a dark face and said, "Come down and explain yourself to me. How have I become abnormal? Otherwise, I will let you know the feeling of heavenly thunder."

Hearing Li Zhi threaten it with thunder, the Qilin beast seemed to remember something frightening, and then said to Li Zhi with a wronged look: "You caught that beautiful girl, and you are alone in the same room with her, but you don't make love with her. If you are not a pervert, then what are you? You are definitely not normal, not a normal human male. This queen has never seen a human male like you."

Seeing the unicorn beast revealing a sense of righteousness amidst the grievance, Li Zhi felt that his speech skills, which he was proud of, were not enough in front of it, so he asked: "Who taught you this heresy?"

The little Qilin said proudly, "Humph, this queen is smart and clever. I can learn these things from you humans just by looking at them. I don't need to be taught. I have been to your human world three times. Every time I see a man and a woman alone in a room, and then they start to do shameful things, but you don't do it. You must be a pervert. Big change."

"Pa!" Li Zhi slapped his forehead heavily.

What kind of rogue little Qilin beast is this? It actually peeked at others doing that kind of thing. "Come here, I have something to ask you." Li Zhi felt that if he continued to communicate with it, his three views would be overturned, so he decided not to waste time talking to it.

"You are a pervert, a big pervert. This queen will not go over there." The little Qilin beast trembled and hid in the corner and shouted at Li Zhi.

"If you don't come over, I will take action." Li Zhi threatened.

"Okay, the past is the past. But dear human, you can't let me be your mount, otherwise this queen would rather die than obey." The little Qilin learned this logic from somewhere, which made Li Zhi speechless.

After jumping back onto the table facing Li Zhi, Li Zhi asked, "How old are you?"

"This queen is three years old. No, five years old. That's not right either. This queen is already fifteen years old. Let me tell you, perverted human, according to you humans, this queen is already an adult. You can't treat me as a pet, nor can you abuse me, and you can't treat this queen like you're petting a cat." The little Qilin said incoherently.

Li Zhi was completely speechless when he saw this, and thought to himself: "I'd better check it myself."

Afterwards, a huge spiritual force suddenly shot out from between Li Zhi's eyebrows, directly suppressing the little Qilin beast and beginning to look through its memory.

Soon, its origin was revealed. The little guy was born from a mysterious egg.

When it first hatches, it is only the size of a fist. After eating the eggshell, it quickly learns to walk and run.

Then he wandered in the forest that exuded a sacred atmosphere, eating spiritual fruits, drinking spiritual springs, and drinking dragon marrow, and soon grew to a foot tall.

Afterwards, no one knew how many years had passed, but the little guy living in the mountains and forests had not continued to grow in height.

However, the wisdom in his eyes became more and more intense.

During this period, its life was very monotonous.

Finally one day, its mind seemed to have fully matured, and it left the forest. Then the scene changed, and it ran to a human village.

There it learned to speak human language.

Next, it wandered outside for a total of three years. During this period, it was chased many times. It learned the art of transformation and could turn into a little yellow dog. At the same time, in the process of escaping, it learned the art of earth burrowing.

From the day it was born, it has never practiced any formal martial arts. Relying solely on the power of its naturally grown bloodline, it has acquired a level of Taoism comparable to that of humans on the other side of the world.

According to its memory, Li Zhi couldn't be sure how old it was. It was just that five years had passed since it regained its intelligence.

The code of conduct it follows is also obtained by observing the human world.

Moreover, this little guy actually had the memory of secretly watching men and women making love dozens of times, both mortals and monks, most of them were extremely impatient, no wonder his mind was so unhealthy.

But Li Zhi could also see that it was not doing it intentionally. It seemed to be absorbing the special yin and yang energy emitted by humans when their yin and yang were combined.

It seems to help it grow.

After reading its memory, Li Zhi began to carefully observe the body of the little Qilin.

Sure enough, the yin and yang have not been separated, the male and female have not been identified, but it has already evolved in the direction of the female Qilin.

After reading this, Li Zhi fell into deep thought. What kind of existence is this little Qilin beast?

He actually has a congenital body.

"Pervert, what did you do to this queen just now? Did you peek at this queen's secrets? Oh, oh, my God, my God, this queen has been molested. This queen..."

After the little Qilin beast regained its mobility, it immediately started screaming. If people outside heard it, they would think that Li Zhi was doing something immoral in the cave.

Li Zhi, with a gloomy face, knocked it unconscious with a slap, and then put it into the mini dragon's nest again.

"You just ate my divine dragon marrow. You should get some sleep."

Seeing that the fainted Qilin seemed to be digesting the dragon marrow in its body, Li Zhi remembered the scene when it was born. With a thought, he took out a ball of Holy Spirit Qilin's blood extracted from the Holy Spirit blood water.

Then Li Zhi fed the blood essence directly into the mouth of the little Qilin beast.

The little Qilin seemed to have smelled something very tonic. Even though it was in a faint, its body instinctively swallowed the Holy Spirit Qilin's blood into its stomach.

Afterwards, an ochre-yellow halo rose from its body, and it quickly formed a Taoist cocoon, wrapping it tightly inside.

On the Dao cocoon, there are mysterious runes flowing, and even Li Zhi cannot understand the meaning of those runes.

But Li Zhi knew that this was the process of it instinctively absorbing the essence and blood of the Holy Spirit Qilin to evolve.

The little Qilin looks like a demon, but it is not a demon. It looks like a holy spirit, but it is not a holy spirit. It is a very strange existence.

There is neither evil spirit nor magic power in its body, only a mysterious blood force.

Aren’t they species conceived by parents, but rather nurtured by heaven and earth?
But there is an eggshell, which doesn't seem like a creature born from heaven and earth.

If it's not natural, could it be that someone has deliberately cultivated and modified it?
The more I think about it, the more it seems possible.

Could it be that someone is using acquired species to experiment with the process of transforming the flesh into the innate holy spirit?
It’s just that this little Qilin failed and did not transform into a holy spirit, but was unexpectedly born early.

That's why there is no demonic energy in the body, but there is a trace of the breath of the Holy Spirit, but it is not completely the Holy Spirit.

After putting away the mini dragon's nest, Li Zhi left the inn directly and began to look for the place where the Qilin was born according to the memory of the little Qilin.

However, after traveling to many places, we still couldn't find any mountains and rivers that exactly matched the place where it was born.

Finally, Li Zhi came to the small village in the human world where the little Qilin first appeared to look for clues.

Still haven't found its birthplace nearby.

It seems as if it descended directly into this world from another world.

"Another world? Could it be the world sealed by the Yuhua Dynasty? Is this little Qilin beast actually a test subject of the Yuhua Emperor? But the time doesn't match?"

Li Zhi wandered around the nearby mountains and forests for a few days, but he did not see the Yuhua Ancestral Temple, nor did he see any aura of spatial fluctuations. It seemed that there was no sealed small world of sages nearby.

It seems that if we want to find the forest that exudes a sacred atmosphere, we have to wait until it wakes up.

After finishing the search, Li Zhi returned to the vicinity of Qi Shi Mansion.

But he did not enter the Qi Shi Mansion immediately. Instead, he randomly dug a cave on a nearby mountain and lived in it.

He planned to refine all three divine dragon marrows before going to the Qi Shi Mansion.

Soon, the three dragon marrows that turned into mini purple dragons were swallowed by Li Zhi in one gulp.

In his Dragon Transformation Secret Realm, the golden dragon that had degenerated to the extreme finally awakened during Li Zhi's three-day dragon marrow refining process.

The endless dragon energy and the power of laws were absorbed by the nine-inch-long golden dragon, which instantly restored its vitality and made it grow a lot bigger, directly from nine inches in length to nine feet in length.

The weak aura on the Golden Dragon's body also completely disappeared, and it directly possessed the strength of the first level of Dragon Transformation, which was equivalent to Li Zhi's strength of the first level of Dragon Transformation.

After all three dragon marrows were refined, Li Zhi absorbed the thirteen drops of ordinary dragon marrow as well.

The golden dragon grew another foot taller, and its length broke through the nine-foot limit and became ten feet, or ten feet.

After growing to ten feet in length, the golden dragon regained some of its power as a real dragon.

However, this time, the golden dragon did not develop any intelligence during its growth, leaving only instincts, allowing it to roam continuously in Li Zhihualong Secret Realm.

While flying, it inhaled and exhaled the essence of heaven and earth, and released the purest true dragon energy to nourish Li Zhi's dragon transformation secret realm, making Li Zhi's spine dragon become more solid and mysterious.

Moreover, the path of the golden dragon's travel seemed to be along a mysterious Taoist pattern, which greatly enhanced Li Zhi's understanding of the great Dao of heaven and earth.

Perhaps this is the true meaning of the Nine Transformations of the True Dragon, to change the infinity of heaven and earth and to take the boundlessness of the Great Dao.

Dragon marrow, he needs more dragon marrow to make the golden dragon grow to a length of ten feet, which is the maximum length that his dragon transformation secret realm can accommodate.

As for where dragon marrow is produced in Zhongzhou, there should be detailed records in the Qi Shi Mansion, and the geniuses in each region should also have no shortage of dragon marrow.

After leaving the cave, Li Zhi appeared directly in front of the mountain gate of Qi Shi Mansion.
