In the face of such immense pressure, the Demonic Beast finally could not take it anymore and stopped struggling.
Its body began to shrink continuously and finally became the same size as a normal person.
Even so, it still could not change the fact that its appearance was so ugly that it made people feel disgusted.
The wound on its back was a ghastly sight, almost destroying its entire back.
At this moment, Qin Yi and the rest could not help but let out a sigh, "This beast's vitality is really tenacious!"
If it was an ordinary person, even if it was a Demonic Beast with a stronger physique, even if it did not die, it would have lost half of its life.
However, this Demonic Beast in front of them, although it looked very weak and could not unleash its combat power, it was still able to persevere and even until now, there was no sign of it collapsing.
Although the other party had already surrendered, Qin Yi and the rest still did not let down their guard.
This fellow's spiritual intelligence was extremely high and it was quite cunning. No one knew if it was faking its surrender or not.
If they were tricked by this beast, it would really not be worth it!
"Tell me, why did you attack us?"
Regarding this beast's origins, Qin Yi was not interested at all. He really wanted to know why this fellow was hiding underground and using the entrance of the Mystic Realm as bait to lure them to devour them.
"I want to become stronger and completely leave this godforsaken place!"
The Demonic Beast looked around and knew that it had no chance of escaping in its current state. It simply gave up struggling and spoke its true thoughts.
"Leave this place?"
Qin Yi frowned and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
He had always thought that this beast came here of its own accord and then used tricks to devour innocent cultivators.
However, it seemed that things were not as simple as he had imagined.
This fellow seemed to have a huge secret.
"To tell you the truth, I've been trapped here for 3,000 years!"
Speaking of this, the Demonic Beast's face was filled with bitterness, "Back then, I also came to this place to explore the Mystic Realm!"
"You explore the Mystic Realm?"
Qin Yi was a little surprised, "You're a Demonic Beast, why would you want to explore the Mystic Realm?"
"Who said that Demonic Beasts can't explore the Mystic Realm?"
The demon beast immediately argued, "You humans need to cultivate to raise your cultivation, but don't we need to? You need to consume resources to cultivate, and so do we. "
"As far as I know, the most effective way for demon beasts to increase their strength is to kill and devour each other."
Qin Yi said, "I have to say, this is the first time I've heard of someone coveting the resources in the secret realm for cultivation. However, this was not the most important thing. I don't want to look into it! Tell me, why did you get trapped here while exploring the arcane realm? "
"I … I couldn't open the gate to the secret realm. Instead, I triggered another mechanism."
The demon beast said, "You humans are indeed cunning, you are indeed of the same origin! I didn't expect that after triggering this mechanism, my body would be pulled by an indescribable force! He wanted to enter the Secret Territory, but he couldn't do it. He wanted to leave, but he couldn't! It's as if he's chained up and completely locked up here! "
"Your situation made me think of a situation."
Qin Yi said, "Could it be that you triggered the prohibition and were forced to stay behind to be the gatekeeper?"
"How would I know? Indeed, the treachery of humans, only you humans can understand it! "
The demon beast curled its lips, its face revealing a look of disdain without the slightest bit of concealment.
Although it said that it didn't know, it was clear in its heart that it was indeed forced to stay behind to be a gatekeeper.
But if it had to admit to this sort of thing, it would absolutely not admit it.
After all, this wasn't something worthy of praise. If it was said out loud, it would make people laugh at it instead.
And hearing up to this point, actually, Qin Yi was also rather clear about this fellow's actions and motives.
One had to admit that the person who created this Eastern Ancient Mystic Realm had indeed made a good plan.
He purposely left behind a prohibition that would only be activated when a Demonic Beast touched it. This way, he could forcefully make the Demonic Beast stay behind to guard the mystic realm's gate.
Most importantly, this Demonic Beast's strength couldn't be too weak. Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to protect the mystic realm.
And after the prohibition was triggered, even if this Demonic Beast was unwilling, it would still be firmly trapped here.
In order to break free from the prohibition, this Demonic Beast would definitely increase its strength at all costs!
In this kind of underground space where there were no cultivation resources, it couldn't cultivate. So how could it increase its own strength?
The only way was also one — — Devour other warriors or Demonic Beasts!
All the warriors and Demonic Beasts that were eaten would become nourishment for this Demonic Beast's strength.
At the same time, the mystic realm could continue to be hidden and no one with ill intentions would covet it. It could be said that it was killing two birds with one stone!
It was obvious that when they said that they were already in danger before they even entered the mystic realm, this was actually a wrong statement.
The moment they stepped foot into this area, they were already considered to have entered the ancient mystic realm's territory.
And this extremely dangerous Demonic Beast before them was the first test left behind by the mystic realm.
This test was something that wasn't there before.
After all, this Demonic Beast was merely imprisoned for 3,000 years. Perhaps in these tens of thousands of years, it was the only Demonic Beast that came here to explore the mystic realm.
"Since you were imprisoned when you were preparing to open the mystic realm, does that mean that you can find the real entrance to the mystic realm?"
What Qin Yi was most concerned about was this!
Their goal for coming here was this. They couldn't possibly give up on the idea of turning back immediately after hearing that there was something strange about this ancient mystic realm, right?
"You're saying that you want to enter the mystic realm?"
The Demonic Beast looked at Qin Yi and the others as its face revealed a sliver of displeasure.
Even though it was forced to stay here for thousands of years, in actual fact, after such a long period of interaction, it had developed a certain level of affection towards this place. Many times, it had even treated this place as its own territory.
Now that someone wanted to enter the mystic realm, of course it wasn't happy.
"What?"
Qin Yi raised his brows and asked in a low voice, "Do you have a problem with that?"
The Demonic Beast remained silent, but its attitude had already been expressed very clearly!
"You have already been defeated by us. Based on your current state, if we want to kill you, although it will take some effort, we can still do it. Why, do you want to try? "
Hearing Qin Yi's words, the Demonic Beast's heart immediately wavered!
