The Secrets of the Ancient Qilins

In fact, Ye Xuan himself had already realized his shortcomings.

Although the Yin and Yang energies within him are extremely surging, he only uses them in the most primitive way.

In addition, his own fighting methods were extremely clumsy.

Most of them rely on their own physical strength, which is like having a treasure mountain but not knowing how to use it, a real waste of resources.

After completing the Primordial Qilin quest, he plans to put the Hongmeng Corpse-Driving System quest aside and return to Chaoge for a period of seclusion to cultivate.

On one hand, he dealt with affairs in Chaoge, and on the other hand, he went into seclusion to cultivate himself, taking into account his own strengths and weaknesses, and forming a combat system that truly belonged to him.

After Ye Xuan had completely stabilized the Yuanfeng Essence Blood, he let out a long breath and opened his eyes.

But then I saw two faces so close to me.

Ye Xuan was startled and instinctively threw a punch.

Fortunately, the person on the other side reacted quickly and intervened to block the attack.

However, he was still blasted a short distance away.

"Is it really that bad? His physical strength is so formidable? He's truly a freak."

Hearing the complaining voice, Ye Xuan realized that the person was actually Kong Xuan.

Seeing Kong Xuan, whose beauty was otherworldly, complaining in the distance, Ye Xuan chuckled.

He didn't say anything, but turned to look at another man.

He was a rather handsome middle-aged man with deep, intelligent eyes.

He was tall and imposing, with a profound aura, and his long hair was parted in the middle and draped behind his head.

The left half is crystal-clear white hair, while the right half is pure black hair.

His black and white hair made him stand out from the crowd.

Upon seeing this man, Ye Xuan was slightly taken aback:

"Nine Unlikenesses? Diting?"

The middle-aged man nodded with a smile.

"It's me."

Ye Xuan rolled his eyes:

"We've come all this way just to find you, but you've gone into seclusion to cultivate, leaving us to our own devices? What, why haven't you continued your cultivation?"

Kong Xuan and the middle-aged man rolled their eyes in unison.

"You make such a racket when you cultivate, trembling all over, your face contorted in a ferocious expression, and you're yelling like a ghost. Anyone who didn't know better would think you had epilepsy."

Kong Xuan chuckled to himself. The description of the Five-Virtue Qilin was quite apt; its cultivation caused such a great disturbance, how could anyone else cultivate?

This immediately made Ye Xuan blush.

However, Ye Xuan managed to suppress his inner embarrassment.

"Wuming greets Senior Qilin."

The Five-Virtue Qilin chuckled:

"Given your esteemed status, there's no need for such empty formalities. Let's speak freely."

Ye Xuan was also taken aback upon hearing the words of the Five-Virtue Qilin.

Turning his head, he found the Five-Virtue Qilin staring intently at him, a faint smile appearing in its eyes.

Ye Xuan was momentarily unsure of what to do, unsure whether the other party had discovered his true identity.

Therefore, they fell silent for a moment.

The tall and slender Kong Xuan came to Ye Xuan's side and gently tugged at the hem of Ye Xuan's clothes.

"While you were cultivating, I already explained to Diting the purpose of our visit."

"And I also told Diting that you came for the corpse of the Primordial Qilin."

"Diting has agreed and will perform the Qilin Auspicious Art on you. You can then head to Qilin Cliff in East Kunlun. Whether it succeeds or not depends entirely on your fate."

Hearing this, Ye Xuan was also taken aback. Was it really that simple?

He couldn't help but have considerable doubts about the so-called Qilin Auspicious Art.

If it doesn't work, then we're really doomed.

They seemed to have sensed Ye Xuan's suspicion.

Diting chuckled:

"What? Don't you believe me?"

Ye Xuan swallowed hard.

"Diting, this matter is of utmost importance."

"You should know that the Jade Void Palace is located on Qilin Cliff."

"That's the Daoist temple of the Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun. Besides the Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, there's also the Daoist Randeng, the Antarctic Immortal, the Yun Zhongzi, the Twelve Golden Immortals, and others."

"As the saying goes, pulling one thread affects the whole body; once one of them discovers it, they'll likely be in deep trouble."

After all, they were venturing into the Eastern East Kunlun Mountains; even the most dangerous descriptions of it couldn't adequately capture its perilous nature.

A thorough preparation is necessary.

But Diting revealed a cold smile.

"No need to be too nervous. It's just a trip to East Kunlun. What's there to be afraid of?"

"Although my Five-Virtue Qilin is of mediocre strength, my Qilin Auspicious Art is no joke."

"Over the years, relying on the Qilin Auspicious Art, I have traveled through East Kunlun many times, and even come to the Qilin Cliff several times, and have never been discovered."

"Although the Heavenly Dao Sage possess the means to see through the secrets of Heaven, they are not without ways to conceal them."

Hearing this, Ye Xuan was clearly taken aback.

Staring at Diting in horror, did this guy actually possess such abilities?

This guy is clearly the last True Qilin in the world, how can he be so audacious?

They actually managed to get to East Kunlun several times?

Aren't you really afraid of being discovered by the Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun?

Or is this guy just incredibly confident?

Diting glanced at Ye Xuan, his expression also becoming slightly solemn.

"The Primordial Qilin's body was forced to transform into Qilin Cliff, where it would be suppressed by the Jade Void Palace for eternity, and its fortune would also be suppressed by the Jade Void Palace."

"If you have the means to reassemble the Qilin Cliff, which was transformed from the Primordial Qilin, back into its original form, then the remnants of my Qilin Clan, like the Phoenix Clan, will also gamble alongside that Human Emperor."

"Anyway, my Qilin Clan has been hiding for far too long. Perhaps, as Kong Xuan said, this is our last chance."

These words sounded extremely solemn to Diting.

Ye Xuan indeed fell silent, then turned his gaze to Kong Xuan.

But he saw Kong Xuan looking at him with a smile, observing Kong Xuan's expression.

Ye Xuan understood that Kong Xuan's relationship with Diting was definitely not ordinary; perhaps they had been secret allies for countless years.

After all, the Phoenix Clan and the Qilin Clan were in extremely dire straits.

They were practically identical. As leaders of the remnants of these two clans, their secret alliance made it easier for them to survive.

In Ye Xuan's mind, finding the Five-Virtue Qilin this time would probably be a very troublesome matter.

Unexpectedly, Kong Xuan had taken care of everything, and all that was left was for him to bring the Primordial Qilin.

Ye Xuan took a deep breath. Just as he said, if not now, when?

Even if the East Kunlun were truly a den of dragons and tigers, he had no choice but to venture there.

Hopefully, when the Primordial Qilin rises from the dead, the spectacle won't be too overwhelming.

"Since that's the case, then we're brothers. Tell me how much power your Qilin Clan still has, so I can report back to His Human Emperor when I return to Chaoge."

The Five-Virtue Qilin smiled slightly, a profound meaning flashing in its eyes. After a moment of contemplation, it finally spoke.

"Although the Qilin Clan was once the king of beasts in ancient times, their fate was not good after their defeat."

Fortunately, the Primordial Qilin made a great vow: wherever the Qilin appears, auspicious omens will follow, thus preventing the Qilin from becoming extinct.

"Since ancient times, the Qilin Clan has been said to possess ten colors of precious light, meaning there are Ten-Colored Qilins, as well as Variant Treasure-Colored Qilins."

"The Ten-Colored Qilins are relatively common; they are the battle Qilin of the Qilin Clan, including the Ink Qilin, Purple Qilin, Red Qilin, Jade Qilin, and so on."

"Currently, among the Ten-Colored Qilins, there are Seven-Colored Qilins that still possess the bloodline. Although they are not of the orthodox bloodline, it is already quite remarkable that they have been able to inherit the Seven-Colored Qilins. There are approximately 30,000 Seven-Colored Qilins."

"Variant Treasure-Colored Qilins are rare in themselves, and their abilities vary greatly. So far, the only one I've discovered is myself."

"In addition, there are approximately ten thousand other low-level auspicious beasts with Qilin Bloodline, such as the One-Horned Black Smoke Beast Jade-Eyed Golden-Eyed Beast the Jade-Eyed Golden-Eyed Beast."

Hearing this, Ye Xuan couldn't help but be secretly astonished. He hadn't expected that the Qilin Clan had preserved more strength than the Phoenix Clan, and their total number was about the same as that of the Dragon Clan.

However, from another perspective, the Three Ancient Clans that once dominated the Primordial World now have a combined population of less than 100,000, indicating that they have indeed reached a critical juncture of life and death.
