At the bottom of the hill, the Departure Fire Divine Bull slowly got up, with five round and glowing red elixirs suspended and hovering around it due to some special force, without falling.

“Yummy.”

Old Barbarian Bull licked its tongue, enjoying the fragrance of the medicine. Drool was constantly dripping from the corners of its mouth, enough to form a small stream, quite exaggerated.

It originally wanted to eat everything at once, but suddenly thought that doing so would be like gulping down a date, it wouldn’t be able to taste the flavor. So when it was almost at the mouth, it decided to slowly taste one by one.

“Gulp…”

The Departure Fire Divine Bull was quick, and directly chomped on a Departure Fire Pill, keeping it in its mouth for a long time before swallowing it.

In an instant.

An indescribably spicy sensation filled every inch of its flesh.

A tingling sensation arose.

In addition, there were some faint tastes of sweetness and sourness. Although not pronounced, they were still noticeable.

As for any other abnormalities, there were none.

“Why is there no change? Could it be because I, the Old Bull, ate too little?”

The Departure Fire Divine Bull was a bit puzzled, and without any hesitation, it rolled its tongue and directly swallowed the other Departure Fire Pills all at once.

However, as soon as the pills entered the stomach, a sudden change occurred.

A sense of rushing air flow, like never before, immediately swept across its body, striking like a violent storm in an instant.

Along with the crazy rotation of this airflow, the blood and energy filled in the Departure Fire Divine Bull’s body felt like it found a breach, rushing to every inch of its flesh and every cell, like a flood breaking through a dam.

In but a few moments, the Old Barbarian Bull felt its body swelling to its limits, giving it the sensation of being explosively inflated.

It moaned in agony, rolling back and forth on the ground, the earth shaking, rocks flying all around, feeling as if it really couldn’t hold on anymore, and that its body would burst if this continued.

The Departure Fire Divine Bull suddenly regretted not choosing some of those small female kirin horses that had shown interest in it, leaving behind descendants, so that even if it did die, it would have something to show its ancestors.

“What happened to this Old Bull? Why did it suddenly become like this?” A passerby from the Villagers of Liu Village was puzzled, attracted by the strange behavior of the Departure Fire Divine Bull.

“Old Bull, did something happen to you? Do you need our help?”

A villager yelled heartily.

“There are still many good people in the world!” The Departure Fire Divine Bull felt a slight touch of emotion. It had been quite lazy usually, but it still had the villagers worrying about it. If it got through this, it decided to help everyone carry more firewood.

However, before it could feel touched for too long, the villager’s next words left the Old Barbarian Bull speechless.

“I think this Old Bull is in so much pain, maybe it’s because it’s infected with some disease. Infected beef can’t be eaten, it can cause problems.”

The villager said seriously, each word clear and precise.

“You old fool!”

The Departure Fire Divine Bull vaguely understood some of what he meant, and couldn’t help letting out a moo in annoyance.

It had always thought that the people here were pretty simple. It never expected them to be a bunch of villains, wanting to eat its flesh at this time.

It’s not like it was a fattened cow. Its body was thin with meat harder than its bones. What was there to eat?

The other villagers watching around burst out laughing at the scene, unable to hold back their laughter.

This is a beast exclusively tamed by Lin Chen. They wouldn’t dare to slaughter it for its meat; they just wanted to tease the beast a bit.

However, afterwards, the villagers watching around actually started feeling a bit sorry.

After all, the condition of the Departure Fire Divine Bull was too horrifying, and at some point, the Bull’s silky red fur had all burnt up, leaving only a few remnants, looking as miserable as one could be.

“Should we go to the village head? This old bull is really suffering,” one person started, a whining note in his voice. He was a kid.

Even though this Old Barbarian Bull seemed so lazy, it was always reliable when it mattered. They had lived together for so long that they had developed feelings for the bull.

Quickly, some villagers asked old man Lin to come over.

“Village head, can you take a look at this Old Barbarian Bull? It was fine this morning, and then it suddenly became like this. Did it get a stomachache from something it ate?”

The simple, good-natured villagers gathered together, hoping to alleviate some of the bull’s pain.

“It’s not likely!” Old man Lin shook his head, quite sure of his opinion.

Even the weakest of the Species of the Ancient Times had a stomach as tough as steel, capable of digesting rocks. Getting a stomachache would be practically impossible.

“Has this Old Barbarian Bull been anywhere else lately?” Old man Lin asked with a furrowed brow, his hands behind his back. 𝑅read latest ch𝒂pters at n/𝒐v(e)lbi𝒏(.)co/m

“It seems it went to see Lord Willow God!” A villager shouted, having seen the Departure Fire Divine Bull go up the mountain before.

“Oh, that happened?” Old man Lin pondered for a moment, then said, “In that case, Lord Willow God should know about this bull’s condition. Although it looks severe, there should be nothing to worry about.”

Still, old man Lin waited around in case something did happen. If need be, he could rush to find Lord Willow God immediately.

Next, the Departure Fire Divine Bull’s condition worsened.

Its body suddenly became withered and dried up. Its flesh was as dried as cured meat, tightly clinging to its bones. It lacked vitality and if no one had told them otherwise, they would have thought it was just a cold stone.

“Old Bull, you must pull through!”

Lin Chen also ran over to cheer on his old companion in secret.

After waiting like this for another five days, the Departure Fire Divine Bull still hadn’t reacted. Its body was dried up and it resembled a corpse.

One more day passed.

Suddenly, a thick layer of flesh-like membrane formed on the Old Barbarian Bull’s body, tightly encompassing it like a silkworm cocoon.

“Thump, thump, thump…”

Thankfully, the strong heartbeat from within the cocoon reassured them it wasn’t dead.

On the seventh day.

Cracks began to appear on the flesh-like membrane.

An unprecedented surge of energy exploded out, attacking like a violent storm.

Then,

A figure crawled out from the membrane.

It was, indeed, the Departure Fire Divine Bull.

Its body hadn’t grown larger, but had instead shrunk several times over. It looked even more solid, every inch of its flesh reminiscent of iron, sparking with a cold shimmer.

Yet the transformation wasn’t over.

The next moment,

Flames suddenly erupted from its body, burning bright red and sweltering. Every cell seemed to be gushing out this fire.

This was the second purification, which was even more crucial.

In its bloodstream, amidst the swirling flames, its original blood evaporated and transformed into streams of Rune light.

Simultaneously, brand-new blood beads as red as the flames appeared out of nowhere. They were like life-giving, celestial spring water, continuously infusing into the Departure Fire Divine Bull’s body….
