The Hidden Function of the Qilin’s Horn

The zombie couldn't feel pain, even though Yun Cheng could feel a lot of things after taking abundant hearts of trees, pain was still what he could least feel and he could barely feel it. But when he touched the qilin's horn, he felt the pain, and he looked to be in great pain. What was going on? The many mysterious powers this qilin's horn had hidden?

"Cheng, can you really feel the pain?"

Knowing that this question was a bit redundant, Yun Che still couldn't help but want to make sure. Yun Cheng held his fingers that were still a bit numb, "Is that how pain feels like? It seems that I was bitten by it."

For as long as he could remember, he had almost never felt what pain was, and he didn't know that he was experiencing it just now. He only thought he had been bitten.

"But how come I didn't feel anything at all when I held it? The first time I held it, I did feel a strong force rushing into my body, and almost broke through the toxin that Fei Ye had given me, but then it was interrupted by the dwarf. The second time I held it was during the day, and now it's the third time. Both times it didn't feel like how I felt the first time, nor did I feel like electrified like you guys did."

To make sure that Yun Cheng really felt the pain, Yun Che picked up the qilin's horn in confusion. Heiyu that was lying on the stone table rolled his eyes and said grumpily, "Of course you can't feel it. Don't forget that you are the same life divine body as its master, the man who is qualified to become the Creator, look at the bottom of the beast horn."

No matter whether it was a divine beast or a divine man, their flesh still contained great power after death, not to mention that the original body of this beast's horn was still alive. Moreover, he was also the guardian divine beast of the outside world. Both Xing Feng and Yun Cheng had their power originated from the outside world, so it was normal that they would be suppressed by it or even feel like being electrified. The reason why Yun Che did not feel like this was entirely because his flesh had transformed long ago, and now he both belonged to the outside world and was not exactly from that world. His existence was special.

"Bottom?"

Yun Che turned over the beast's horn, puzzled. There was nothing at the bottom, and before he could ask, Heiyu added, "Is its cut complete? At first, I thought the qilin cut off the horn itself, but from this cut, I'm afraid someone else cut it off, and in the outside world, the only person who can cut off the horn of qilin should be the master of the outside world. I'm not sure about the details, but the only thing that is certain is that qilin voluntarily let him cut off the horn, otherwise the cut could not be so smooth. As I've said before, if we want to find out what happened, we had to go to the bottom of the sea to seek qilin."

"Then why when the dwarf took it, his subordinates' superfunctions were not suppressed?"

They would not be going to the bottom of the sea anytime soon, so Yun Che changed the subject. It seemed that qilin did have the ability to suppress other people's superfunction. If he could figure out how it worked, it might come in handy when he encountered powerful enemies in the future.

"When I said you have a low IQ, you didn't want to admit it. Master, please don't become more stupid, okay?"

Heiyu looked at him rather speechlessly. It was said that pregnancy would make people stupid for three years. His master was not going to get any more stupid, was he?

"What is it?"

"Fuck, are you trying to murder me."

The tip of the beast's horn suddenly was pointed at him, Heiyu was so scared that he leaped up and escaped his attack. Yun Che let go of his hand and simply used his air superfunction to manipulate the horn to continue the attack, forcing Heiyu to become bigger.

"Shit, you can't attack me like this. Take it back, and I'll tell you, alright?"

Heiyu was chased around by the beast's horn, and in the meantime rememberrf to yell and beg for mercy. Yun Che pulled his right hand, and the beast's horn automatically returned to his hand. Only then did Heiyu who had turned into a puppy again returned to the stone table, "Damn, I've never seen a person who is more treacherous than you."

"So you are also afraid of the qilin's horn."

Yun Che, who was holding the beast's horn, wore a particularly evil smile, clearly telling Heiyu that if he disobeyed him in the future, then he would use the horn again.

"The hell I'm afraid of it. I respect it, do you understand? Qilin is the supreme beast, and even its horn should be respected. Do you think that I, a divine beast, is as shameless as you and only know how to bully the old and the weak all day long?"

Heiyu was so angry that his black fur was shaking uncontrollably. Yun Che poked him with his qilin's horn, "Who is the one that bullies the old and the weak all day long? Why don't we go outside and ask around?"

So who was the one that messed around outside every day? In Chaoyang, no matter they were superfunction possessors or ordinary people, the elders or kids in kindergartens, all had all be tricked by him. People had long been terrified of him, and every time they encountered Yun Che, they almost blatantly told him that he should keep Heiyu inside to stop him from hurting others.

"Of course it's you. It's definitely not me. I am supreme and mighty, so how would I bully a weak human?"

"Eh-hem – sorry, I choked on my saliva. You can continue to be shameless. It's okay. I'll pretend I didn't hear it."

"Haha –"

Heiyu blamed it on Yun Che without even thinking about it. Before his narcissistic speech was finished, Xing Feng, who had been in silence for a long while, couldn't help but coughed, and what he said next made Yun Che laughed out loud. Yun Cheng and Chenchen, who did not understand what was happening, also chuckled. Heiyu was so angry that his mouth was distorted, his right front paw trembling and pointing at Xing Feng, "You – who is the shameless one? You're the most shameless and despicable one."

Well, that was even more shameless of him. But since he was so angry that he seemed to be having a stroke, Xing Feng decided to let it go, but Yun Che laughed even more wantonly.

"Uncle Heiyu, you're so funny!"

Well, this time, even Chenchen got the funny part, and Yun Cheng also concurred, "Indeed."

"You, you – I'm really going to be angry."

Pointing at them with trembling paws, Heiyu sat down. He crossed his two front paws in front of his chest like human did, and tilted his head arrogantly, thus showing everyone that he was really furious. However, such comical posture of him made Yun Che laugh so hard that his stomach almost cramped, and eventually he simply leaned on Xing Feng. Meanwhile, Chenchen also laughed so hard that he couldn't stood up straight and held his belly with his hands. The good thing was that Yun Cheng still hadn't forgotten him, and he simply carried him to his lap, and the two laughed out loud together.

"Well keep laughing. Why don't you keep laughing to death?"

Seeing them not only did not stop, but laugh more loudly, Heiyu turned back, and fiercely glared at them.

"Haha – Heiyu, can you please stop being so funny? I'm laughing so hard that my stomach hurts – haha –"

Yun Che made a great effort to stop laughing for a short while and before he could finish the words, he started laughing again. Xing Feng held him in one arm and rubbed his belly with another, his smile never ceasing.

"Humph!"

Heiyu grunted, simply turning his head to ignore them. A long while later, the laughter gradually died down. Yun Che sat up and stretched out his finger to poke his little head, "Are you really angry? Come on. I'm just messing with you. Hurry up and tell me what's going on."

"Hmph, I'm angry, and I don't want to tell you."

Well, he was really throwing a tantrum.

"Is that so?"

Yun Che raised an eyebrow, his eyes narrowing dangerously. Heiyu felt his eyelids twitch, and then he said warily, "I can tell you, but you have to help me assemble the equipment of energy bar and teach me how to make it work."

He ate a lot of energy bars to recuperate this time, and his stock was at least one tenth less. When checking his stock today, he felt immensely heartache. Then he finally remembered that Yun Che got him the equipment into the Space, and he was just worried about not having the opportunity to ask Yun Che to assemble it for him.

"Let Shen Rui and Jiang Shan teach you. They are experts in mechanics."

Xing Feng answered the question for Yun Che, and he was the only one who knew what his men were specialized in. The first special squad was not just a bluff, and they were good at almost everything and the only difference was how good they were.

"Why don't you tell me earlier? I'm going now…Damn, why are you tugging me?"

The moment Heiyu heard this, he immediately wanted to find Shen Rui and Jiang Shan, but Yun Che grabbed his tail, rolled his eyes and said grumpily, "Where are you going? Don't disturb their cultivation. Tell me first, and when they come out tomorrow, you can mess around however you want. Anyway, they won't be out for any mission these days."

Intuition told him that it was best to get clear about the qilin's horn.

"Okay, okay, let go of my tail. Don't yank it off of me."

With no other way, Heiyu could only sit down again. He pulled back his own tail and then slowly said, "Didn't you say that the dwarf put it in a container? If I'm not wrong, there should be water in the container. There are many kinds of qilin, and the one outside should be a water qilin, so he can stay at the bottom of the sea all year round. As for why those people's superfunctions were not affected, I think they should have drunk the water soaked with the qilin's horn, so they are immune to it. You can also use it to make water for everyone to drink, and maybe it can also help with their cultivation. And, you said there was a strong force rushing into your body, didn't you? It should be the residue of the divine power on the qilin's horn, which is also the reason why Xing and the others can't touch it. In fact, if they can resist the invasion of the divine power, their cultivation must be improved significantly and they will make breakthrough in their superfunction. You know, as the saying goes, money comes from the danger. And it also applies with cultivation. But it's best that Cheng doesn't try it. Qilin is a divine beast representing light and justice, so Cheng may be purified if he's not careful. Master, if you don't believe me, you can look at your cultivation and see it has improved again."

Divine power was of little use to ordinary people, but to cultivators it was something extremely nutritious, just like his blood could make the wounds of Wolf King and the others recover instantly. Qilin's horn was not an attachment to its body, but was formed by his lifetime divine power, so it was natural to have powerful unknown energy.

"Is that so?"

Hearing this, Yun Che raised his eyebrows and gathered his divine sense to check his cultivation level, but –

"Are you sure you're not joking me?"

His cultivation had not improved at all. He was still at the level-3 of foundation building stage.

"It can't be? It doesn't make sense. Stay where you are."

Seeing that, Heiyu walked forward in confusion. The moment his claws were on Yun Che's hand, a strong power of divine soul rushed into his body, and Yun Che instantly felt that the tiny bit of divine sense he had gathered was going to be dispersed, but soon the huge pressure disappeared again. Heiyu couldn't help but laugh, "So that's how it is. Master, please don't complain. That divine power goes all into your gestational sac to nourish the little master there. Ha ha… after little master is born, he is destined to be a natural divine body that is rare in the world. I seem to have seen the birth of a little monster."

"Uh –"

Damn, could you use another work? What little monster? How could anyone mock their little master like this?

Yun Che and Xing Feng were both speechless, and they wanted to slap the hell out of Heiyu. However, thinking about the nourishment the divine power feeding the baby, the two held each other's hand and smiled. They wished the best for their child just like every parent did. And in such a messy world, the best they could wished for was for their child to be powerful, so powerful that no one dared to bully him!
