Desolate Era: Hatching a Phoenix at the Beginning

Ye Chen looked at the serious Goulong.

"Since Little White agreed to let you possess it, it should be prepared." He replied, "Be careful when you search its memories to see if there's any useful information. If there's any secrets, then keep it a secret. It should be fine."

Among the mutated beasts that Ye Chen could come into contact with at the moment, the leader of the Feather Dragons had the most information.

The Titan God and Zhurong had left the Wilderness too early in different ways. There was too much information about the future that was unclear. They didn't even wait for an alternate world to separate from the main world. Therefore, most of the information Ye Chen obtained from them had already expired.

Although Goulong passed away later than them, it also left too much information blank.

Although the leader of the Feather Dragons was relatively young and had been locked in the array since it was born, it had received the information of many of its seniors. It almost included the observation of the outside world by the Feather Dragons in the foreign realm for thousands of years, filling in the blank information left behind by these ancient Divine Beasts.

Now that it was in a possessed state, Ye Chen was helpless if he wanted to mobilize its memories. After all, Goulong's situation really couldn't support reconnecting after the possession was cut off. Therefore, he handed the task of searching its memories to Goulong.

"You're really assured. Aren't you afraid that this kid will go crazy after I finish searching?" Goulong started to make requests. "Transfer its master's authority to me. That's safer."

"Transfer what authority?" Ye Chen was dumbfounded.

In the array, Ye Chen also understood the danger of letting external consciousness search the memories of mutated beasts. In the possession state, Goulong was actually only temporarily replacing the leader of the Feather Dragons' mind with its own. Only then could it use the other party's body to mobilize its Spiritual Energy. Even if it could affect the other party through its body, the minds of the two mutated beasts were clearly separated. If Goulong forcefully mobilized the other party's mind, it was very likely that the leader of the Feather Dragons' mind would be damaged. When the possession was disconnected, it would not return to normal.

If he wanted to search the other party's memories without destroying the other party's mental conditions, he had to make Goulong's mental operation meet some fine standards. Ye Chen's request to search for it was also a form of trust in its ability.

However, he had indeed never heard of handing over the master's authority.

He only knew that in the situation between him and the Godly Sea Steadying Needle, he had formed a contract with the Godly Sea Steadying Needle. The Beast Spirit Contract between Gao Ming and the Godly Sea Steadying Needle was covered because the contract strength of dripping blood to acknowledge a master was higher.

If Goulong was talking about this situation, Ye Chen would be a little hesitant.

The leader of the Feather Dragons was not completely willing to form a contract with him. It had accidentally formed a contract with Ye Chen during the Blood Purification Ceremony at the Spirit Sealing Altar. Then, it dealt with Ye Chen with the mentality of accepting reality.

If its master's authority was transferred so that its master was no longer Ye Chen, it would very likely not stay by Ye Chen's side anymore. This was a situation that Ye Chen did not want to see.

At this moment, Zhurong interrupted.

"That's not transferring authority, right? At most, it's shared." It said to Goulong, "Judging from Ye Chen's reaction, this method should have been lost. Explain to him."

"It's no different from transferring." Goulong replied and turned to Ye Chen. "It's much safer to search its memories as the master of the mutated beast. However, your strength shouldn't be enough to break through its mental defense. But, I'm sharing a body with it, so it's much more convenient to search. Therefore, I need you to attach your Spiritual Energy to me and completely seal the leakage of your Spiritual Energy so that it will think that I'm you. And it will give the master's authority. Can you understand that?"

Ye Chen immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

He understood after Goulong explained. This method only allowed Goulong to pretend to be him in terms of Spiritual Energy. It would not affect his relationship with the leader of the Feather Dragons.

The only problem was how to attach Spiritual Energy to Goulong's body.

"You're using Little White's body now. Then, how should I attach my Spiritual Energy to you?" Ye Chen asked, "Can I use the fragment of the Spirit Pool?"

He pointed at the ice array opposite the passageway. The fragment of the Spirit Pool that had awakened Goulong's consciousness was over there.

"Just take from nearby. The piece I asked you to put away can also be used. Anyway, my consciousness has already awakened. I can receive the Spiritual Energy on any piece I want." Goulong replied.

It was talking about the fragment of the Spirit Pool that had been used as the center of the array in the secret chamber.

Ye Chen took out the fragment of the Spirit Pool from his inventory and started to inject Spiritual Energy into it. The two Divine Beasts observed from the side.

"I think this amount is enough." Goulong looked at it for a while before saying, "Seal your Spiritual Energy. At least don't let me feel it."

Ye Chen retracted his Spiritual Energy output.

Goulong was clearly not satisfied. "The Feather Dragons are mutated beasts that mainly use Water Spiritual Energy. Their perception isn't weak either. A seal of this level can't stop them from sensing your Spiritual Energy. Seal it tightly." It was completely lecturing Ye Chen.

Ye Chen secretly rolled his eyes in his heart and tried his best to put away his Spiritual Energy. He had the Yin Yang Taichi Fish in his body that helped him absorb Spiritual Energy. With this thing circulating, it was even more difficult to cut off the Spiritual Energy connection between his body and the outside world.

After several failed attempts, the two Divine Beasts looked at him with increasingly tired eyes.

"Sigh, why don't you call those Divine Beasts over? Isn't there a guy who can create a barrier that blocks Spiritual Energy communication? Let it help." Zhurong sighed and said to Ye Chen.

"Are you talking about Kun Peng? Its Spirit Wall Space is indeed useful." Ye Chen was also tired. He nodded and immediately decided to do as he was told.

But Goulong stopped him.

"I've just observed it. There seems to be something in your body that is constantly absorbing Spiritual Energy for conversion. It might be something that prevents you from sealing your Spiritual Energy. Can you make it stop?" It asked Ye Chen to stop the Yin Yang Taichi Fish.

"This thing has been in my body for a long time. I'm not sure how to make it stop." Ye Chen expressed his helplessness.

"But you can't just let it run forever. Otherwise, if you encounter a situation where you have to hide your Spiritual Energy in the future, you'll be blind." Goulong refused to give up. "Sit down and tell me the operating principle of this thing. I'll think of a way to control it now."
