Day 60: You swam in the south, riding the clouds and mist. With your great strength, you roamed freely. The mountain gods in each mountain dared not stop you as you returned towards the Huai River.

Day 61: As you moved forward, you suddenly sensed a peculiar aura. You turned your head and saw a large bird not far away, shaped like an eagle, with black feathers, a red beak, and tiger-like claws.

You only glanced at this strange bird and didn't pay too much attention, simply thinking of it as a strange beast.

Day 62: You continued to fly through the clouds and mist, but that strange bird still followed behind you. At this point, you clearly sensed that this strange bird was following you, so you stopped, preparing to intercept it.

But unexpectedly, before you could intercept it, the strange bird stopped not far from you and cried out, its voice like a goose's, but the sound turned into words in your ears.

The strange bird asked if you had swallowed the Immortal Medicine. Upon hearing the words 'Immortal Medicine,' your mind was greatly shaken, and you stared at the strange bird, asking what it meant.

The strange bird told you not to panic, explaining that it had once been in contact with the Immortal Medicine, so it could sense the remaining aura of the Immortal Medicine on you.

After a brief exchange, you also learned the name of this strange bird. According to the strange bird, its former name was Qin Pi…

Qin Pi?

A strange bird?

Ji Zheng was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered a record in a mythological story.

According to legend, Zhulong's son, 'Gu,' once joined forces with a god named 'Qin Pi' to kill a god named 'Bao Jiang' south of Kunlun Mountain. Later, the Heavenly Emperor learned of this and killed Gu and Qin Pi east of Zhongshan.

After Gu and Qin Pi died, their resentment did not dissipate. Gu transformed into a hawk-like bird, and wherever it appeared, there would be a great drought.

Qin Pi transformed into a large owl after death, and it is said that wherever this large owl appeared, there would be war.

The image of this large owl completely matched the strange bird in the simulation.

"This Qin Pi should be the one from that mythological story."

"Speaking of which, Zhulong lives on Zhongshan. Zhulong's son was killed on Zhongshan by the Heavenly Emperor, and Zhulong didn't even dare to fart. The Heavenly Emperor is still the Heavenly Emperor after all."

Ji Zheng was filled with emotion.

There are very few records of the Heavenly Emperor taking action.

But without a doubt, they are all extremely terrifying.

He doesn't know Zhulong's strength.

But he knows that Zhulong is definitely not weak, at least a high-level myth.

But even such a mythical existence, when facing the Heavenly Emperor, did not dare to do anything when its offspring died before its eyes.

"By the way, why did Qin Pi and Gu kill Bao Jiang in the first place?"

Ji Zheng was curious.

If they hadn't killed Bao Jiang, nothing would have happened.

What kind of feud led Gu and Qin Pi to kill Bao Jiang?

Moreover, the Heavenly Emperor would stand up for Bao Jiang, which means Bao Jiang must have a relationship with the Heavenly Emperor.

What kind of grievance caused Gu and Qin Pi to kill Bao Jiang no matter what.

Ji Zheng was full of curiosity about this.

The simulation continued…

You quickly thought of the origin of the strange bird, and you couldn't help but ask the strange bird about why it killed Bao Jiang.

The strange bird, the large owl, was stunned for a long time after hearing your words, seemingly not understanding why you would know about Bao Jiang.

The large owl questioned you, but you shook your dragon head and did not answer. Seeing this, the large owl asked you to follow it to a large mountain ahead, where it would talk to you in detail. You naturally agreed.

Day 63: You and the large owl arrived in the mountains, and you began to talk with the large owl.

Through the large owl's conversation, you understood why the large owl's predecessor, Qin Pi, died. It turned out that it was all caused by a stalk of Immortal Medicine.

In the beginning, the Immortal Medicine was under the jurisdiction of Bao Jiang. At that time, the god Bao Jiang was ordered by the Heavenly Emperor to send a stalk of Immortal Medicine to the human world, but Gu and Qin Pi had evil intentions and killed Bao Jiang, seizing the Immortal Medicine.

After the Heavenly Emperor learned of this, he was naturally furious and killed Gu and Qin Pi. Because Qin Pi had eaten half a stalk of Immortal Medicine, he transformed into a large owl after death…

The power of the Immortal Medicine is indeed extremely strong.

Ji Zheng had experienced this.

It's just that, why did he only evolve his bloodline after eating the Immortal Medicine, reaching the same level as the gods?

But he didn't have the ability to transform after death.

Could it be because his starting point was different?

No matter what, Qin Pi was a god.

After eating half a stalk of Immortal Medicine, perhaps he really gained the ability to transform after death?

And his original body was a demon, so the Immortal Medicine could only evolve his bloodline?

Ji Zheng could only come up with such an explanation.

"The simulation said that the Immortal Medicine was initially under the control of Bao Jiang, but why is there a saying in mythology that the Immortal Medicine is under the control of the Queen Mother of the West?"

"Moreover, in the saying that the Queen Mother of the West controls the Immortal Medicine, there is also a reasonable basis, such as Hou Yi obtaining the Immortal Medicine from the Queen Mother of the West, which led to the story of Chang'e flying to the moon later on."

Ji Zheng felt confused.

But after thinking about it carefully, he roughly understood.

In the beginning, it was kept by Bao Jiang, but the Immortal Medicine belonged to the Heavenly Emperor.

Bao Jiang was ordered by the Heavenly Emperor to send a stalk of Immortal Medicine to the human world, but he was killed by Gu and Qin Pi on the way, and the Immortal Medicine was seized. Gu and Qin Pi each ate half a stalk of Immortal Medicine.

Later, the Heavenly Emperor discovered this and killed Gu and Qin Pi, but the Immortal Medicine was no longer kept by anyone, so this errand fell into the hands of the Queen Mother of the West.

This is why there are mythological stories such as 'The Queen Mother of the West has the Immortal Medicine,' and 'Hou Yi seeks medicine,' 'Chang'e flies to the moon,' and so on.

"I see."

Ji Zheng cleared up the information and understood.

After he understood, he immediately continued to look at the screen.

After you understood this information, you looked at the large owl again and asked why it was following you, and what was the purpose of all its actions.

The large owl was silent for a moment, and then told you that it wanted to ask for one of your dragon horns, and said that you had eaten the Immortal Medicine, but the power of the Immortal Medicine had not been completely digested. Both of your dragon horns contained the power of the Immortal Medicine. As long as you gave it one dragon horn, it could get rid of its current state and restore its divine form.

The large owl also said that as long as you were willing to help it, it would be willing to be used by you in the future. After you heard this, you instantly refused. You knew that losing a dragon horn would greatly reduce your strength…
