At this very moment, deep within the Minghua Mountain Range.

In a vast valley, the corpse of a gigantic beast, comparable in size to a medium-sized mountain peak, lies horizontally.

It is entirely silver-gray, emitting a metallic cold light, its limbs like giant pillars supporting its massive body, yet rigid as iron. The most striking feature is the single horn protruding abruptly from the center of its forehead, ten zhang in length, curved like a new moon, covered with intricate lightning-like patterns, as if containing Thunderbolt Power.

The surface of the horn shimmers with faint electrical light, those naturally formed lightning patterns flickering unpredictably like living beings, sketching complex tracks of the Heavenly Dao.

Whenever the skies are overcast and thunder roars, these patterns resonate, flashing dazzling blue light, as if responding to the call from heaven and earth.

At the tip of the horn, a cluster of intermittent lightning gathers, still containing the power to destroy the heavens and earth despite countless ages.

The beast’s body is one hundred zhang in length, over thirty zhang wide, lying on its side on the ground, with its back forming a high mountain ridge. Its skin has lost its elasticity from its living days, becoming roughly hard like rock, covered with intersecting scars, as if slashed by countless Divine Weapons.

However, these scars not only fail to diminish its majestic presence, but they add a touch of age and grandeur.

All over its body are dense, complex Immortal Patterns, like a silver net enveloping its massive form.

These patterns glisten under sunlight with a pearl-like lustre, forming various mysterious designs: some like flowing clouds and water, others like sun, moon, and stars, some like mountains and rivers.

Each pattern contains the mysteries of Heaven and Earth Laws—testimony to this Immortal Beast’s past communion with the Heavenly Dao.

The massive head rests on the ground, its eyes hollow and deep, as if still gazing upon the boundless sky.

Its facial contours are distinct, nose bridge high, lips tightly shut, maintaining its dignity in death.

A pair of large ears lay flat on either side of its head, the tips slightly upward, also covered with tiny Immortal Patterns.

Through partially damaged skin, you can see bones inside flickering with a ghostly blue light. These bones are not like ordinary creature bones; they appear semi-transparent and crystalline, flowing internally with brilliant starlight like the Milky Way.

Each bone is a peerless Spiritual Artifact containing immense Spiritual Power, seemingly ready to reassemble the giant beast to stand once more.

Despite being dead for countless ages, the surroundings of this corpse remain enveloped by suffocating pressure. Creatures approaching it will involuntarily tremble, as if facing not a corpse but a sleeping deity.

And it is the Immortal Beast One-Horned Thunder Elephant.

It’s also one of the greatest opportunities for many Exotic Beasts in the Minghua Mountain Range.

At this time, three Mahayana Realm Exotic Beasts are guarding the valley.

They are the strongest in the Minghua Mountain Range and rulers of many Exotic Beasts.

Their rise to Mahayana Realm was due to obtaining the essence of meat from this Immortal Beast’s corpse, allowing them to continually break through.

"Tsk tsk, no matter how many times you look at it, this Immortal Beast’s corpse is truly terrifying, indeed worthy of having fallen from the Immortal Realm. Even a little bit of flesh and blood essence is a great opportunity for us."

"And this Immortal Beast corpse died billions of years ago, yet remains an incorruptible body, no matter how much flesh we cut, it continues to regenerate."

"Isn’t that right? Even though we’ve advanced to the Mahayana Realm, compared to this Immortal Beast corpse, we are still far inferior, truly terrifying."

"The pity is that cultivation in Mahayana Realm requires more than just resources; the key is understanding the Dao, comprehending Heaven and Earth Laws, otherwise consuming Heaven and Earth Spirit Medicine won’t lead to breakthroughs in cultivation."

"Indeed, yet observing this Immortal Beast’s corpse has benefited us greatly; it seems to contain infinite Dao rhyme within, a truly incredible creature. Who knows what the Immortal Realm is like to have given birth to such a terrifying creature."

"By the way, the Minghua Mountain Range has started its centennial Exotic Beast conflict again; probably those Body Integration Realm Exotic Beasts are about to clash, it’s getting lively."

"Fighting is a good thing; as Exotic Beasts we need to grow through battle. Whoever wants more Immortal Beast flesh and blood essence, then start fighting. Only the strongest are qualified for the best cultivation resources."

"However, it may cause many Body Integration Realm Exotic Beasts to die and be injured."

"Dead is dead, nothing to worry about. If one can’t ascend to Mahayana, then they’re merely an ant, destined to be a corpse in this world, whether they die early or late makes little difference."

"Correct, we only hope to produce more Mahayana Realm Exotic Beasts, no matter how many Body Integration Realm Exotic Beasts there are, it really matters little."

"If the death of dozens to hundreds of Body Integration Realm Exotic Beasts results in producing one Mahayana Realm Exotic Beast, then it’s worth it, we can have another fellow Daoist."

Three Mahayana Realm Exotic Beasts discuss endlessly.

They resemble true deities, controlling everything in the Minghua Mountain Range.

In this region, they are indeed the true gods, able to change innumerable things with a single word.
