"What exactly did you do to my second and third brothers? Did you kill them? If so, where are their bodies? Speak, where have you taken them?"

At this moment, Shi Xin was extremely furious, and he had already transformed into his human form.

The three brothers, born of the same womb, had cultivated together and struggled to survive in the Chaotic Star Sea. Fortunately, all three brothers had successfully passed the Ninety-nine Tribulations and reached the Great Success Stage.

It seemed that ascension was not far off, but then they encountered a Cultivator who pretended to be weak.

A Cultivator who hadn’t even reached the Great Success Stage had completely defeated the three brothers. Despite being Divine Beasts and possessing a Low Grade Immortal Device—the Sword Pointed Cone—and an Innate Spiritual Treasure—the Xuan Eye Bead, they were still defeated by a Cultivator not even at the Great Success Stage.

"Your second and third brothers? Oh, don’t worry. They are not dead," Qin Yu said leisurely at this moment.

Since Shi Bing and Si Zhan had been thrown into the Qingyu Immortal Mansion by Qin Yu, the Xuanbing Realm, no longer sustained by the ’Xuan Eye Bead’, had begun to slowly melt away, and the white mist also gradually disappeared.

With only Shi Xin remaining, Qin Yu knew it would be easy to capture him.

"Not dead? Then where are they?" Shi Xin asked anxiously.

"It’s simple. Just surrender, and I will take you to them," Qin Yu said with a light smile.

Shi Xin’s expression turned cold. "Cultivator, do you think I’m stupid? To not resist and just surrender? You say you didn’t kill my two brothers, but is that necessarily true? Who knows if you are lying to me?"

"Shi Xin, do I... really need to lie to you?" Qin Yu countered.

Shi Xin was stunned.

Remembering Qin Yu’s prowess, a Cultivator who hadn’t even reached the Great Success Stage, yet could control Heavenly Fire that even Heavenly Immortals feared. If it weren’t for the three Divine Beasts having the Xuan Eye Bead to condense the Xuanbing Battle Armor, perhaps the Heavenly Fire alone could have annihilated all three of them.

Not just the Heavenly Fire, but also the Spiritual Treasure with its astonishing recovery effect, and the Immortal Artifact that had once broken through the defense of the Xuanbing Battle Armor. And then... that final, sudden intense pressure.

All of this made the Cultivator before Shi Xin seem all the more mysterious.

Not to mention anything else, just being able to control Heavenly Fire and possessing almost an undying body, as well as far surpassing his speed, Shi Xin knew he couldn’t escape.

Of course, this so-called undying body was based on attacks not reaching the soul.

If a master, someone on the level of Zong Jue, attacked, Qin Yu probably wouldn’t have had time to dodge before his head was blown apart and his soul destroyed. At that point, no amount of regenerative power would be of use.

Scattered soul and spirit meant certain death.

But Shi Xin didn’t have the capability to instantly destroy Qin Yu’s soul yet.

"Right, you don’t need to lie to me. The three of us brothers together, plus the Xuanbing Realm, and still you captured my two brothers. Now, without the Xuanbing Realm and without my brothers’ help, even escaping is impossible," Shi Xin said with a bitter smile. "Fine, I agree, I will surrender!"

Shi Xin looked at Qin Yu, "I hope you aren’t deceiving me, and let me see my two brothers."

"Don’t worry, of course I won’t deceive you."

With a wave of his hand, Qin Yu released a black rope that automatically lengthened and firmly bound Shi Xin. This Black Element, after all, was a Top-Grade Spiritual Artifact, and capable of transforming endlessly.

Despite Shi Xin’s strength, breaking free was practically impossible, and the rope wrapped many times around him. Even if he desperately broke one loop, there were many more. Moreover, the Black Element could wrap even more times around him.

Shi Xin did not resist, allowing Qin Yu to bind him with a rope.

"Meet your two brothers," Qin Yu thought, and directly threw Shi Xin into the Qingyu Immortal Mansion as well.

As the Three Divine Beasts were taken into the Qingyu Immortal Mansion by Qin Yu, naturally the original Ice Region began to dissipate. Gradually, the frozen surface of the water was shattered by water pressure, and the area returned to its state of towering waves.

A smile appeared on Qin Yu’s face.

He was indeed very happy at this moment. Initially, in the Treasure Pavilion, he had obtained four Spiritual Beast Rings. One of the rings had been used to capture the Mo Qilin, and the three unused rings were now just right for these three Xuanbing Lion Beasts.

"Master."

Mo Qilin quickly flew to Qin Yu’s side, "Master, has the enemy been dealt with?"

"It’s dealt with," Qin Yu said with a smile, "Little Mo, let’s go into the Immortal Mansion."

After initially capturing Mo Qilin, Qin Yu had also brought Mo Qilin into the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, so Mo Qilin was aware of the existence of the Qingyu Immortal Mansion.

Qin Yu was the master of the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, and he could allow others to enter it.

However, if he himself wanted to enter the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, he had to first take it out and place it somewhere. That way, he could enter it; if kept inside his body, even he could not enter.

This Qingyu Immortal Mansion was quite mysterious, its size could be altered, much like a Spiritual Artifact or Immortal Artifact.

However, to some extent, the Qingyu Immortal Mansion could indeed be considered an Immortal Artifact, but the materials consumed in making it were incredibly astonishing.

He shrunk the Qingyu Immortal Mansion and placed it on the seabed in a corner while controlling the illusionary Restriction, making the Qingyu Immortal Mansion appear like a piece of reef.

Qin Yu’s body transformed into a stream of blue smoke, directly entering the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. As for Mo Qilin, Qin Yu had already sent him in before retrieving the Qingyu Immortal Mansion from where it was stored.

In the garden of the Qingyu Immortal Mansion,

Qin Yu sat on a chair made of Primordial Spirit Stones, eyeing the three Xuanbing Lion Beasts in front of him, who were dumbstruck, while Mo Qilin chuckled at their side.

Mo Qilin obviously knew what was going on in the minds of the three Xuanbing Lion Beasts at that moment. When he first entered, he was also stunned by this Immortal Mansion, which was entirely composed of Primordial Spirit Stones.

Even if all the veins of Spirit Stones from Pengmo Island were added up, they still wouldn’t match the number of Spirit Stones in this Immortal Mansion, not to mention that this Immortal Mansion was constructed from a complete and enormous chunk of Primordial Spirit Ore.

Shi Xin, Shi Bing, and Si Zhan, the three brothers, looked at each other, their eyes filled with astonishment.

Primordial Spirit Stones were something the three brothers had indeed seen before, having acquired a piece after killing an Eighth Tribulation Independent Practitioner, which was even a Low Grade Primordial Spirit Stone. Knowing how precious Primordial Spirit Stones were in the Chaotic Star Sea, these three Xuanbing Lion Beasts who had lived there for a long time understood very well.

"My God, how can there be so many Primordial Spirit Stones here?" The Shi brothers were completely stunned.

Qin Yu, nearby, was not in a hurry and just sipped on Immortal Dew Spring.

In Hidden Dragon Continent, when some country folk entered large cities like the Capital, their expressions were mostly similar to the Shi brothers: so astonished, unbelievable.

"Gentlemen," Qin Yu finally spoke.

That was when the Shi brothers regained their senses. The oldest, Shi Xin, spoke first, "In the Xuanbing Realm, you had already greatly surprised my brothers and me. I didn’t expect that what you showed wasn’t even all you had. This Immortal Mansion... where did you get so many Primordial Spirit Stones from? No, every part of this place seems integrally formed... can it be?"

Shi Xin immediately lay down on the ground and began closely observing everything.

"A single block... Could the entire Immortal Mansion be made from a massive Primordial Spirit Stone?" Shi Xin only felt dizzy at the thought; it was truly astounding.

Shi Bing and Si Zhan were also shocked beyond belief.

A Primordial Spirit Stone of such magnitude? Where could it be found?

"No, how could there be a Primordial Spirit Stone so large? This is the original form of the Primordial Spirit Stone. It’s just that the quality of this original stone is extremely good, almost showing no impurities." Qin Yu said with a smile.

Eventually, the three brothers, Great Success Stage Divine Beasts, calmed down.

"What exactly do you want by capturing us here?" Si Zhan was the first to shout angrily.

Qin Yu was startled, as he thought he had already explained the reason.

Shi Xin, glaring at Si Zhan, the least calm of the three brothers, then said to Qin Yu, "I know what you want, but becoming a Spiritual Beast, firstly, means no freedom. Secondly... as a dignified Divine Beast, to become a mount for humans, I really can’t accept it."

"A mount, I’d rather die than agree," Si Zhan shouted too.

Shi Bing didn’t finish speaking, but his gaze conveyed that he shared the same sentiment as his two brothers.

Qin Yu gave a bitter smile.

"Wanting to make a Divine Beast into a mount is indeed difficult, I’ve already conquered them by force. But..." Qin Yu felt quite helpless in his heart.

Originally, when he took Mo Qilin to be his Divine Beast, it was agreed that Mo Qilin would regain his freedom after Qin Yu’s ascension. It was only to protect Qin Yu’s family for a while, which is why Mo Qilin was willing to become Qin Yu’s mount.

But to subdue these three Divine Beasts before him was truly difficult.

"Are you truly unwilling?" Qin Yu asked again, but this time his face was devoid of any smile and seemed much colder.

The three Xuanbing Lion Beasts firmly shook their heads.

"Divine Beasts are naturally nobler than humans. To think of us as human mounts is impossible," Si Zhan proudly said.

In the eyes of Divine Beasts, they are indeed nobler than humans.

Of course, in human eyes, Divine Beasts are considered Demon Beasts with overly high talents. Though their strength is terrifying, humans fundamentally believe that they are the essence of all beings.

"Even if you kill us, it won’t be possible," Shi Xin also said aloud.

Unyielding, even in the face of death.

Mo Qilin then said to Qin Yu, "Master, to want Divine Beasts as mounts is truly difficult...unless you can make the Divine Beasts believe from the bottom of their hearts that you are nobler than them, they would willingly become your mounts. Your strength may have conquered them, but to make them think you are nobler than them is very difficult."

Qin Yu, looking at the gaze of the three Divine Beasts, knew further discussion was futile.

"Alright, since you are unwilling, you can stay in a secluded courtyard within the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, but your range of movement will also only be limited to that secluded courtyard."

With a thought from Qin Yu, he directly transferred the three Divine Beasts into a secluded courtyard.

The entire Qingyu Immortal Mansion was covered with Restrictions, allowing any item to be transported to and from any part of the mansion, of course... provided the other party couldn’t counter the Restrictions.

If an Immortal Emperor were to come, with Qin Yu’s strength in initiating the Restrictions, the opponent might be able to directly break the Restrictions. However, for these three Xuanbing Lion Beasts to break the Restrictions set by Immortal Emperor Ni Yang was simply impossible.

...

After settling the three Xuanbing Lion Beasts in the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, Qin Yu also left Mo Qilin in the mansion. He himself, piloting a Middle Grade Immortal Artifact, sped off to the northeast as fast as possible.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

Having reached the Mid Tribulation Crossing Stage, Qin Yu, with the help of his now physical body and the Middle Grade Immortal Sword, achieved a shocking speed of flight, which was dozens of times faster than when he was at the Early Stage Star Core.

"Big Brother, where are you now? Hou Fei and I just flew past ’Black Grass Island.’" Hou Fei communicated with Qin Yu through the Communication Order.

Qin Yu, scanning with his Spiritual Sense and recalling the map of the Chaotic Star Sea, was overjoyed.

"Feifei, Little Black. I’m almost at the Green Robed Ancestor’s island, I estimate we should meet up in a day," Qin Yu’s heart surged with excitement at this moment.

Ever since the day he and Li’er went to explore the Nine Sword Immortal Mansion in the Chaotic Star Sea, he had not seen Little Black or Feifei.

"Big Brother, Hou Fei and I have crossed through the Ninety-nine Tribulations and can now fully transform into human forms. Do you know what our human forms look like? Hehe, they are quite different from the shapes we initially transformed into," Hou Fei communicated with Qin Yu.

Qin Yu also speculated in his heart.

Divine Beasts that overcome the Ninety-nine Tribulations can possess a human form. This human form isn’t just an illusion, but a real human body. This body is their innate transformation, and although they can alter their appearances, the basic look remains that of the human form.

After a day.

In Qin Yu’s rapid journey, and frequently through the Communication Order keeping track of each other’s paths, Qin Yu’s Spiritual Sense detected his two brothers first.

Shortly after detecting them with his Spiritual Sense, Hou Fei and Hei Yu appeared before Qin Yu.

Merely through their auras, Qin Yu could tell who was who.

Hou Fei, dressed in a greenish-blue Battle Armor, often had a smile hanging on his face, and his eyes squinted with delight. The entire person slightly emaciated, looking like a youth in his twenties.

Hei Yu, in black Battle Armor, which was covered with feather-like scales. His frame slightly frail, akin to a teenager around fifteen or sixteen years of age, only there was a hint of chill about him.

"Haha, Big Brother, isn’t my human form handsome? The Mixed Feathered Bird’s human form looks like a young teen who hasn’t fully grown yet, look at him, with lips red and teeth white," Hou Fei chatted and laughed.

Hei Yu frowned, glanced at Hou Fei and spat out two words: "Shut up!"

Immediately after, Hei Yu turned towards Qin Yu, his eyes filled with undisguised excitement, after all, the two brothers had been apart for a long time.

"Big Brother," Hei Yu uttered just two words.

Qin Yu was very excited at this moment, "Good, good, this is simply wonderful." Suddenly, Qin Yu thought of his Qingyu Immortal Mansion, his two brothers hadn’t seen it yet. Right away, he said, "Feifei, Little Black, I got an Immortal Mansion back in the Nine Sword Immortal Mansion, let me take you guys for a tour."

Speaking thus, Qin Yu pulled his two brothers and plunged into the Chaotic Star Sea,
