“Do you mean that the array can be broken by sacrificing a Feather Dragon?” Ye Chen reacted.

“It can't be considered breaking it. It seems to only be able to make the array temporarily ineffective,” replied the Godly Sea Steadying Needle. “I once escaped back to my race's territory. The array there has been restored at some point. It's just that without everyone's support, it has become very weak.”
“If that's really the case, Five, do the Feather Dragons and the Deep Sea Dragons have similar types of Spiritual Energy? Are you guys related by blood?” The Kun Peng asked.

The Godly Sea Steadying Needle didn't answer its question immediately. Instead, it was stunned.

“Five? Is that me?” It asked doubtfully, “But I should be older than you…”

Although the Godly Sea Steadying Needle was an infant Divine Beast, the main reason was that it had left home in its early years. After it fell into Gao Ming's hands, it didn't cultivate any special cultivation arts. So, it stopped maturing. In terms of its actual age, it was already countless times older than
the Kun Peng.

However, the Kun Peng didn't care at all.
“Who else can it be? You're the fifth one to come, so of course you're Five!” It became arrogant. “Let me tell you, Little Purple and Monkey have lived in the egg for a long time, but they're also the third and fourth!”

“Stop fooling around, Idiot.” Ye Chen was also amused when he heard the argument between the Divine Beasts. However, he didn't forget the serious matter. He patted the speechless Godly Sea Steadying Needle and said, “Idiot just asked you about the relationship between the Deep Sea Dragons and the
Feather Dragons. What's your answer?”

“Tm sorry, Master. I forgot to answer.” The Godly Sea Steadying Needle seemed a little embarrassed. “We're very close in terms of blood relations. In fact, in ancient times, we were a race.”
“Oh? I don't know about that at all.” Ye Chen recalled the contents in the Wasteland Remembrance and asked in confusion.

“T's actually very normal that you don't know about it. After land appeared in the wilderness, some Dragons went on land and became the Feather Dragons.” The Godly Sea Steadying Needle explained, “However, the ancestors of the Feather Dragons were Deep Sea Dragons that lived in the Ice Sea. They are
still somewhat different from my kind. The types of Spiritual Energy they have are also different from ours.”

“So there's such a history.” Ye Chen nodded. “It seems that in the future, I can't just look at the Wasteland Remembrance written by humans. I have to understand your race's history as well.”
Then, he turned around and looked at the Kun Peng.

“Idiot, judging from the answer of the Godly Sea Steadying Needle, are you guessing that their blood relationship has something to do with the failure of the array of the Deep Sea Dragons?”

“Master, I feel that the two races definitely have a connection, but it's not as simple as blood relations.” The Kun Peng thought for a moment and asked, “Master, do you still remember how we opened the entrance when we entered the Water Spirit Stone Array?”

“Of course I remember. The stone door at its entrance is set up so that the high-level Pythons can use their Spiritual Energy to resonate with it. Only then can the entrance be opened.” Ye Chen answered.

“Then, we entered the Python Race's altar, which can help mutated beasts of the Python Race with a sufficiently pure bloodline to become Titan Pythons.” Little Purple added, “Just as Master said, the high-level Pythons need their strength to open that array, not bloodline.”

“Little Purple, you're so smart!” The Kun Peng praised Little Purple happily. “The key to breaking the array is probably not the bloodline of the Feather Dragon, but its Spiritual Energy!”

“But when we opened the door of the Li Residence's underground palace, didn't we drip blood on it? Why can't we be sure that blood is also a way to open the array?” Seeing the Kun Peng and Little Purple's excited faces, Ye Chen couldn't understand.

However, when he heard the two Divine Beasts mention the array, he quietly opened his inventory and started reading the Wasteland Remembrance.

After roughly looking at the related parts about arrays, he read the information he found in Fan City again, and he finally understood what was going on.

Inall the records he had seen, all the arrays were opened by Spiritual Energy.

Although the Kun Peng and Little Purple weren't aware of this characteristic of the arrays, as Divine Beasts, their instincts were much more sensitive than Ye Chen's after opening an array once.

“Idiot, are you saying that the person who slaughtered the Deep Sea Dragons captured the infant Feather Dragon because the Feather Dragon' Spiritual Energy can be used to break the array and that it wasn't killed as a sacrifice?” Ye Chen closed his inventory and looked at the few Divine Beasts.
While he was searching for information, the Immortal Phoenix had already torn down more than half of the roof of the fourth level of the Mystic Realm and was resting on the Kun Peng. As for Little Purple, it opened the Titan's Eye and discussed with the other Divine Beasts while looking around.
“Yes, and just now, we had a new discovery!” The Kun Peng replied happily, “I also asked Little Purple to observe the hidden entrance under this pool. Little Purple said that it really looks like an array entrance. We just need to use the Feather Dragon's Spiritual Energy to open it!”

“But the Godly Sea Steadying Needle also said just now that the type of the Feather Dragon's Spiritual Energy is different from its own. If you want the Godly Sea Steadying Needle to help open the door, it might be a little difficult,” Ye Chen said doubtfully.

“Master, you don't have to worry about that.” The Godly Sea Steadying Needle said quickly, “I told everyone about the Deep Sea Dragons just now. Only then did I realize that my race might have more than one type of Spiritual Energy.”

“Are you not a water-type beast?” Ye Chen asked in a doubtful voice.

He opened the data panel to take a look but suddenly remembered that the types of Spiritual Energy of the mutated beasts weren't shown here.

“Master, I look like a water-type beast on the outside, but I grew up in an underwater volcano. Therefore, I can also mobilize the power of the fire and earth as well. At the same time, as long as there are various types of Spiritual Energy in the environment, I can also have a small amount of Spiritual
Energy of the other types.”

The Godly Sea Steadying Needle seemed extremely excited.
“The array of our race was created by our seniors, so it contains many types of Spiritual Energy. Those who aren't our own kind who have many types of Spiritual Energy, it would be very difficult for them to open our array. This is the reason why that group of people brought the Feather Dragons here.”
Ye Chen finally understood after hearing the explanation.

Arrays were sometimes not created with a single type of Spiritual Energy. In this case, in order to open the array, one needed a person or a mutated beast with several types of Spiritual Energy. This condition was too difficult to satisfy.

And the Deep Sea Dragons could solve this big problem.

However, at that time, the people who killed one of the races of the Deep Sea Dragons must have had infant dragons only. Their Spiritual Energy wasn't strong enough to break the array.

However, the Feather Dragons were different. They lived in foreign realms all year round and their bodies had already been affected. Their bones always had the ability to automatically produce Spiritual Energy.

Therefore, even if it was an infant dragon, its corpse also contained a large amount of Spiritual Energy that was enough to open the array. According to the Godly Sea Steadying Needle, killing a few of them on the spot and converting their Spiritual Energy can open the array temporarily. And the death of
the infant dragons that break the array also made it impossible for the array to open for a long time.

“In that case, there's only one problem left.” Ye Chen couldn't help but mutter to himself, “How did that guy find so many infant Feather Dragons?”
