A smile spread across Yu Xian's face.
Although the Chaos Evil Beast wasn't as formidable as the Chaos Evil God, it was at least loyal to him.
Right at that moment, however, the Chaos Evil Beast looked toward the Chaos Evil God lying at the black dragon Jormunid's feet, its eyes shining brightly. If it had any saliva to speak of, it would likely be drooling buckets by now.
"You want to eat it?" Yu Xian asked, a little uncertain at the sight.
The Chaos Evil Beast stared fixedly at the Chaos Evil God, nodding furiously upon hearing Yu Xian's words.
Clearly, even though the Chaos Evil God and the Chaos Evil Beast were of the exact same species, their relationship was hardly one of fraternal devotion, but rather one of mutual consumption.
"There won't be any latent hazards, will there?" Yu Xian asked again when he saw it nod.
The Chaos Evil Beast shook its head, indicating there would be no negative side effects or hidden dangers whatsoever.
It was probably like the game Snake: a big snake could grow longer by eating small snakes, while a small snake had an equal chance to devour a big one.
"Fine, go ahead and eat it!" Once Yu Xian was certain the Chaos Evil Beast could consume the Chaos Evil God, he readily agreed with a grin.
In any case, he could summon as many of these beasts as he pleased now, so he didn't need to care about a mere Chaos Evil God. Compared to the Chaos Evil God whose consciousness had already been wiped, the Chaos Evil Beast truly loyal to him naturally carried far more weight in his heart, and he was far more willing to invest resources into cultivating it.
Having received Yu Xian's approval, the Chaos Evil Beast immediately charged at the Chaos Evil God, opening its maw to bite down on its leg. The spectacle that followed was exceptionally brutal and gruesome to behold.
"Big Brother, it looks like it's eating something so delicious," Little Nora murmured, drooling slightly as she watched.
Yu Xian shot Little Nora a speechless look. Beside her, Fang Qinghao had already covered her own eyes, unable to watch because the Chaos Evil Beast's feeding was far too gory.
If they were in the outside world and Little Nora wanted a taste, he truly might have indulged her.
The problem was that they were currently in the Zhen Realm, and the Chaos Evil God's power was simply too potent. He genuinely feared Little Nora would suffer indigestion from it, so up until the Chaos Evil Beast picked the Chaos Evil God clean, he never agreed to let Little Nora take a bite.
Seeing the Chaos Evil Beast devour the Chaos Evil God completely, the ahoge on Little Nora's head wilted, and she slumped in visible disappointment.
Yu Xian patted Little Nora's head to comfort her, only to see the Chaos Evil Beast radiating purple light all over. Its body, originally the size of an adult weasel, suddenly shuddered violently—it had begun to evolve.
"Roar!"
Following a low growl, the Chaos Evil Beast's body began to swell.
Its head gradually morphed toward the shape of a baboon's, while two mouths appeared on either side of its face. A massive, fang-filled maw tore open across its back, and more mouths sprouted along the sides of its arms.
In just one minute, it expanded from around fifty centimeters to three meters tall, its appearance looking exceedingly grotesque.
"So cool!" Little Nora exclaimed, eyes shining as she looked at the evolved Chaos Evil Beast.
She was thoroughly envious of the mouths all over the Chaos Evil Beast's body. If only she had that many mouths, she could eat so fast!
"Master, please bestow a name upon me."
Following its evolution, all three mouths on the Chaos Evil Beast's face opened simultaneously. Inside two of those mouths sat eyes glowing with a faint purple light, looking up at Yu Xian in deep respect.
"Hold on a moment," Yu Xian said after a brief thought, not the least bit surprised that the Chaos Evil Beast could speak.
He opened the Chaos Evil Beast's status panel, planning to check its attributes first before deciding on its name.

...
...
Having reviewed the Chaos Evil Beast's new attributes, Yu Xian nodded in satisfaction.
According to the rules he had deduced, the shorter a skill's description, the greater its power. Judging by the current status panel, the Chaos Evil Beast's strength and potential had clearly received a tremendous boost.
After pondering for a moment, he looked at the Chaos Evil Beast and said, "Your name will be Tunshen."
In truth, his reasoning was very simple: the Chaos Evil Beast had devoured an evil god, so he simply dubbed it Tunshen. If it had devoured a demon, it would have been Tun'e; if an elf...
At the very least, this name sounded much better than the other ones he had thought of, such as Little Devourer, Little Mouth, Little Monkey, or Little Maw.
"Thank you, Master, for bestowing my name," Tunshen said earnestly, immediately bowing its head with deep respect upon receiving its name.
"All right, let's keep hunting for more Great Dao True Beasts and crush them!" Seeing that Tunshen was satisfied with the name he had given it, Yu Xian couldn't help but smile, turning around to call out loudly.
Although he didn't know the exact rewards of this event, judging by the Great Dao True Beast's sheer power, Yu Xian had a gut feeling that the prizes would certainly not disappoint.
Therefore, grinding them was the way to go.
Yu Xian sent Tunshen into the Chaotic Space and leaped onto the black dragon's back. Once everyone had climbed aboard, the black dragon soared into the sky once more.
"Big Brother, look over there!" After the black dragon flew for a short while, Little Nora pointed to the right and shouted.
Yu Xian looked into the distance where Little Nora was pointing. A Great Dao True Beast was being besieged by a large crowd of class-holders; viewed from high above, they looked like countless ants swarming a giant beetle.
"This event is based on contribution points. Let's go!" Remembering the event's rules, Yu Xian immediately ordered the black dragon to fly over.
A few minutes later, the battle cries and agonized screams grew clearer and clearer. Yu Xian smoothly opened the Chaotic Space and laughed. "Tunshen, get 'em!"
"By your command, Master!" Tunshen replied in a gruff voice and dropped out of the sky.
Releasing a slight burst of God-Slaying Power, it abruptly veered mid-fall toward the Great Dao True Beast. Its body suddenly split into two halves, clamping down like an enormous pair of jaws to bite into the Great Dao True Beast.
"Holy crap, what the hell is that thing?!" The surrounding class-holders were utterly dumbfounded by Tunshen's sudden appearance.
Then came an even more brutal sight: the Great Dao True Beast's Rule Aura happened to lapse, and Tunshen's jaws snapped shut in an instant. The Great Dao True Beast's head rolled away, its hindquarters collapsed, and its entire midsection was swallowed whole by Tunshen in a single bite.
