Power Progression
| Stage / Realm / Level | Chapter | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Planetary Level 1; 10× genetic strength | 1 | Jin Yu hatches from the inheritance egg at Planetary Level 1. Consuming the eggshell increases his length from roughly 12 to 16 meters. 1 |

Background / History
A severely injured Golden Horned Beast with Early Marquis combat power was pursued by the Peak Marquis expert Lin Yu Hou. Rather than allow capture, it detonated a spatial treasure, used an inheritance secret technique to form a patterned egg, sent it through a space rift, and self-destructed after its Origin Pearl was critically damaged. 1
Jin Yu awakened inside the egg with the Golden Horned Beast's inherited memories, including cultivation knowledge, eighteen special secret techniques, and 3,199 ordinary techniques suited to the species. He hatched on Earth in August 2057—one year earlier than the original Golden Horned Beast's expected appearance—and recognized that his premature birth could alter Luo Feng's future. 1 2
Rather than surrender his own body, Jin Yu later secured a second Golden Horned Beast egg for Luo Feng. He revealed that his beast body could create three clones and used this advantage to maintain multiple bodies with one connected soul. 22
Jin Yu deliberately suppressed the beast's natural growth for decades so each Blood Luo Crystal could affect its entire body rather than only a small region. This preparation enabled its eventual perfect-lifeform transformation after the hundredth crystal fusion. 91 96
After gaining access to the Golden Horned Beast Clan's sacred land, the beast became central to Jin Yu's study of the Golden Space Fusion Law. It copied the Beast God Statue through millions of carving attempts, producing a valid foundation for later comprehension. 115
Appearance
The Golden Horned Beast is an enormous reptilian Starry Sky Beast whose body changes substantially as its genes and cultivation advance. Its early form is black and heavily armored; after perfect genetic evolution, it becomes a colossal pure-gold creature marked by Beast God imagery. 1 96
- A pre-rebirth specimen was nearly 1,000 kilometers long, with five golden horns, blade-like black scales, and wings large enough to obscure the sky. 1
- Jin Yu's hatchling body emerged at roughly 12 meters long and grew to 16 meters after consuming its eggshell. 1
- Its claws can extend like enormous blades, while its eyes are described as house-sized and dark gold during its larger black-scaled stage. 91
- Blood Luo Crystal fusion changes its black body to pale gold and covers its abdomen with intricate blood-red secret patterns. 92
- The completed hundredth fusion turns its scales dazzling gold; its abdominal patterns combine into the head of a roaring Beast God. 96
- At perfection, its body grows beyond 90,000 kilometers in height. 96
Personality
While adapting to the beast body, Jin Yu initially displays the Golden Horned Beast bloodline's brutality. He kills a Lord-level electric eel and captured soldiers for information with little visible remorse, later recognizing that the bloodline's slaughter instinct was affecting him. 2
The beast body also reflects Jin Yu's survival-first pragmatism. He refuses to sacrifice himself for an abstract greater good, conceals the extent of his power, and treats opportunities such as genetic evolution, clan inheritances, and World Beast research as resources to be exploited. 2 96 300
Its cultivation is marked by patience rather than simple aggression. Jin Yu restrains its growth for decades, endures the pain of ninety-nine Blood Luo Crystal fusions, and spends more than three million carving attempts reproducing the Beast God Statue's artistic conception. 91 92 115
Abilities & Skills
Golden Horned Beast Physiology
A peak-bloodline Starry Sky Beast, the Golden Horned Beast possesses exceptional natural growth potential, a tenfold genetic foundation, immense physical strength, and an Inner World. It can naturally mature to the peak of the World Master level. 1 22
- Devour — Consumes metal and alloy wreckage to fuel growth and expand the Inner World. 1 98
- Innate metal affinity — Its evolution can be accelerated through carefully selected metal combinations rather than ordinary natural growth. 43
- Inner World — Stores objects and supports cultivation; foreign objects normally dissolve within it unless carried by one of Jin Yu's clones. 91
- Natural Blood Luo compatibility — As a descendant of the Golden Horned Beast God, it can fuse Blood Luo Crystals without the baleful-aura transformation required by less compatible bodies. 92
Reinforcement
The beast's innate secret technique lights the golden patterns around its horn and sharply increases its speed and piercing force. 2
- Pierced a steel fortress designed to withstand Lord-level threats. 2
- Used to produce high-speed afterimages during attacks and movement. 2
Soul Searching
Jin Yu channels mental energy through his horn to search a target's memories. 2
- Used on a Lord-level electric eel to learn about the surrounding sea area. 2
- Used on captured soldiers to confirm that he had arrived on Earth in 2057. 2
- The technique collapses and kills the target's soul after use. 2
Clone Creation and Shared Soul
The Golden Horned Beast can create three clones at different cultivation stages, making Jin Yu exceptionally difficult to kill so long as a viable body remains. 22
- Its clones share a single consciousness and can jointly study laws, secret techniques, and combat applications. 47
- The shared soul also transmits pain: the agony of Blood Luo Crystal fusion is suffered simultaneously by all connected bodies. 91 92
- Jin Yu later recreates distant clones through the true Golden Horned Beast body and uses its perfected genes to elevate them. 98
Blood Luo Crystal Fusion
The Golden Horned Beast uses Blood Luo Crystals to transform its genes and activate Blood Luo Power. 91
- The first fusion increases the power of its attacks by approximately 20–30%. 91
- The tenth fusion raises its genetic strength to 2,400 times normal. 91
- The hundredth fusion produces perfect genes, more than 10,000 times Life Gene Level, pure-gold scales, and Beast God-patterned abdominal markings. 96
- Fusion is limited by willpower and unbearable body-and-soul pain; its first hundredth-crystal attempt failed after all linked clones lost consciousness. 92
Golden Space Fusion Law
The beast has exceptional affinity for the Laws of Gold and Space and converts Jin Yu's insights into natural claw, wing, horn, and tail attacks. 46 47
- Studies the spatial essence hidden in Gan Wu Tower's Stone Tablet alongside Jin Yu's other bodies. 47
- Learns to follow spatial fluctuations, evade attacks, and make its physical strikes swift and elusive. 47
- Repeatedly carves the Beast God Statue's scale patterns, eventually reproducing a trace of the correct Golden Space Fusion artistic conception. 115
Golden Horned Beast God
Jin Yu's third Talent Secret Technique, obtained after perfect genetic evolution, transforms the Golden Horned Beast into an incarnation of the Golden Horned Beast God. 115
- Raises all energy in the body to the level of a Universe Master. 115
- Greatly improves its affinity with the Golden Space Fusion Law. 115
- In its transformed state, space offers little obstruction and its claw can instinctively identify flaws in enemy secret techniques. 188
- The transformation consumes divine power at roughly one hundred times the normal rate. 188
Equipment / Weapons / Items
- Chaos Golden Wing — A six-pair wing treasure that can form silver auxiliary armor around the Golden Horned Beast avatar. It grants Space-Time Control, extreme speed, and defensive protection against physical and soul attacks. 244 245 253
- Beast God Weapon — Xilodo's personal Mental Master weapon, designed for the Evolution God Seven Transformations. Tuterri gives it to Jin Yu but warns him not to reveal it before reaching Universe Venerable. 118
- Golden Scale — A High-grade Supreme Treasure battle saber left by Lord of the Golden Horn. It can transform into armor and provides offensive, material-defense, and soul-defense functions. 186
- Golden Horn Token — A G-class-metal token given by Palace Lord Heavenly Eclipse that opens a temporary passage to the Golden Horned Beast Clan's sacred land. 102
Relationships
- Jin Yu — The Golden Horned Beast is Jin Yu's true beast body and shares consciousness with his other clones. 1 22 321
- Luo Feng — Jin Yu gives Luo Feng a separate Golden Horned Beast egg for possession, intending for them to bear Earth's future dangers together. 22 23
- Babata — Babata is stunned by the existence of two Golden Horned Beasts and recognizes the extraordinary survival value of its cloning ability. 22
- Xilodo — Jin Yu becomes Xilodo's posthumous disciple and inherits his Golden Space Fusion Law legacy, techniques, title, and Beast God Weapon. 117 118
- Tuterri / Golden Horn Venerable — Xilodo's former disciple recognizes Jin Yu's Beast God artistic conception and appoints him Young Master of the Golden Horned Beast Clan. 117 118
- Golden Horned Beast God / Lord of the Golden Horn — The beast's bloodline is compatible with the deity's Blood Luo Crystals, and Jin Yu inherits the Golden Scale saber left for a successor of that lineage. Jin Yu vows to resurrect him in the future. 186
- Molosa, Beidi, and Mohe — World Beasts enslaved by Jin Yu and used as intelligence sources and controlled predators within the World Beast Nest. 327 328
Story Role / Major Arcs
Rebirth on Earth
Jin Yu hatches from an inheritance egg on Earth, confirms that the date is August 2057, and realizes that his premature appearance has disrupted Luo Feng's expected Golden Horned Beast opportunity. 1 2
Luo Feng's Golden Horned Beast Opportunity
Jin Yu secures a second egg for Luo Feng rather than sacrificing his own body. The two Golden Horned Beasts later consume Profound Iron gathered from Mars, accelerating their development before leaving Earth. 22 26
Perfect Lifeform Evolution

Golden Horned Beast Clan Inheritance
Through Palace Lord Heavenly Eclipse's token, Jin Yu enters the clan's sacred land, studies the Beast God Statue, demonstrates the Beast God artistic conception, and becomes Xilodo's disciple and the clan's Young Master. 102 117 118
Universe Sea Battles
The Golden Horned Beast avatar openly confronts Demon Race ancestors, withstands attacks from the Supreme Treasure Domain Breaking Cone, and uses the Chaos Golden Wing's power to control the battlefield. 250 251 253
World Beast Campaign
Jin Yu first studies World Beast Ke'er's power and collects its blood before annihilating it with Void in a Thought. He later infiltrates the Dim Land, enslaves Molosa, Beidi, and Mohe, and turns captured World Beasts against their own kind. 300 301 327 328
Although Jin Yu's forces kill vast numbers of World Beasts, roughly fifteen million escape Qing Feng Realm by dispersing into the Universe Sea. 332
