Desolate Era: Hatching a Phoenix at the Beginning

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

After leaving the Primitive Burial Ground, Ye Chen had been paying attention to the values of himself and the Divine Beasts.

At first, when they could still watch the World Channel, many people suggested that their combat power seemed to be worse than it used to be in the outside world, but the ability of mutated beasts had improved. Ye Chen also felt the same.

In his later observations, he even realized that living in the abundant Spiritual Energy in the outside world, his Divine Beasts’ combat strength increased rapidly. It could increase by thousands in a day, but he didn’t have any obvious improvement.

But now, after absorbing a wisp of energy from the advancement of the Immortal Phoenix and the Kun Peng, his defense value had increased more than double and his attack value had increased more than three times!

This meant that humans with difficulty in cultivation couldn’t only rely on the power of mutated beasts to fight, but they could also absorb part of the energy of the mutated beasts by helping them advance.

Ye Chen now had an infant pseudo Divine Beast and two infant Divine Beasts. Judging by their ages, they might both be about to advance and only lacked some help in cultivation. As for the two that had just advanced…

Ye Chen opened the interface and looked at the data panels of the mutated beasts.

After the Immortal Phoenix and the Kun Peng advanced this time, each of their values had increased by more than 10,000. When they advanced again, he wondered how much more combat power they could give him!

The more Divine Beasts he had, the more he benefited. It was simply a huge gain!

The more Ye Chen looked at the data, the happier he became. However, in order to maintain a good image in front of his mutated beasts, he still calmed himself down. Then, he turned to the Kun Peng and asked the question that he had been wanting to ask just now.

“Idiot, how did you advance just by practicing a cultivation art?”

Everyone’s eyes focused on the Kun Peng in an instant.

“That’s right, idiot. You were so much weaker than Big Sister before. How did you suddenly advance? Did you eat too much good stuff, or is that cultivation art really that powerful?” Monkey asked first.

“If the cultivation art is really so useful, will I be able to advance soon if I practice it?” Little Purple, who was also a water-type beast, came over. The Godly Sea Steadying Needle, which couldn’t speak, also nodded.

“Kid, you advanced so quickly. Are you trying to be the boss?” The Immortal Phoenix was even more direct. It tugged at the hair on the back of the Kun Peng’s neck and asked.

The few mutated beasts made a commotion and only let the Kun Peng go after a while.

“Master, this is my fault. I didn’t realize that there was something wrong with that jade tablet.” The Kun Peng shook its messy feathers and explained, “It looks like it only recorded the cultivation art, but in fact, it is the key to the gate to the Green Unicorn Mystic Realm. Only water-type Divine Beasts can sense it.”

With that said, the Kun Peng took out the jade tablet and handed it to Ye Chen.

“I only felt that it had the aura of a Mystic Realm before. I didn’t expect that the Mystic Realm was inside it, so I didn’t pay attention and absorbed the energy of the Mystic Realm. That’s why I advanced so quickly.” After it finished speaking, it asked again, “Master, should we go to the Li Residence first, or should we enter the Mystic Realm first?”

Ye Chen held the jade tablet in his hand tight.

“Of course, going to the Li Residence first.” He replied. “Idiot, don’t forget the Sun God Envoy said that it found other treasures that have similar auras to this jade tablet in the Pavilion in the Li Residence, which was on fire!”

The Immortal Phoenix at the side became excited and jumped on Ye Chen’s hand. “That’s right! So, the Li Residence actually has the keys to the Mystic Realms. Let’s go there quickly and take them all away!”

“Of course. Let’s go and get them now,” Ye Chen said firmly. “After we get them, we’ll immediately leave Fan City and cultivate at the boundary of the Primitive Burial Ground. We’ll increase our strength and then go to other places in the Primitive Burial Ground to create our own world!”

His words made the few mutated beasts enthusiastic. They immediately maintained the effect of the Concealment Mirage and went out of the alley, following the street and entering the Li Residence without a sound.

However, after entering the Li Residence, Ye Chen became alert.

Since he had the protection of the Concealment Mirage before, he had always done everything without holding back. However, the Li Residence gave him a strange feeling that gave him no choice but to pay attention.

The back door of the courtyard was facing the night market, but after entering, the entire courtyard fell into a strange silence. It was as if all sound had been sucked away by an invisible vortex. In the center of the vortex was the burned Pavilion.

Ye Chen walked closer to the Pavilion and realized that this building was completely different from what he had imagined.

The Pavilion wasn’t a wood building that was prone to fire. Instead, it was built with high-quality Spirit Stones with hundred-year-old Spiritual Vines on the outside that sealed the aura. Now that the Spiritual Vines were all burnt and many of the Spirit Stones had shattered, the remains of the entire Pavilion were smoked into black and the door was tightly sealed with new Spirit Stones.

“This doesn’t look like a normal fire, Master.” The Immortal Phoenix said. “It seems to be burnt down by using the Great Sun True Fire of my race.”

Ye Chen nodded and entered the building on the Immortal Phoenix.

The inside of the Pavilion had already been burnt down. The bookshelves fell on the ground and paper, ashes, and pieces of wood were everywhere. They obviously suffered heavy losses.

“But the rumors outside said that it was almost burnt down…” Ye Chen started to think.” Besides, where did the aura that the Sun God Envoy mentioned come from?”

He looked at the messy floor of the bottom level.

“Could they be here?”
