Desolate Era: Hatching a Phoenix at the Beginning Chapter 127 – The Request of the Leader of the Feather Dragons

Chapter 127 The Request of the Leader of the Feather Dragons

“You're saying that Divine Beast Zhurong is still alive? How is this possible?” The leader of the Feather Dragons said in disbelief, “It's true that an ancient Divine Beast like Zhurong, which can become well-known, might have left behind a portion of its consciousness in the Spirit Pool, but it's impossible for it to be reborn!”

Ye Chen shook his head.

“Nothing is impossible.” He replied, “Besides, the death of Divine Beast Zhurong was originally a rumor. It was just that it failed to reach Nirvana and it fell into a deep sleep. Its real body is Demon Flame Mountain on the East Continent's coast.”

“However, the Zhurong relic here must be real. It has a reaction to the Art of Zhurong!” The leader of the Feather Dragons was no longer calm. “It's impossible for the fragment of the Spirit Pool to be taken out when the mutated beast is alive!”

“Right, that's why I'm curious about what this relic is.” Ye Chen replied.

The Spirit Pool was also the brain of a mutated beast. Among the body parts, it had the most abundant Spiritual Energy and the highest defense power. Once the Spirit Pool was injured, the mutated beast would definitely die. This was also the reason why the leader of the Feather Dragons didn't want to believe that Zhurong was still alive.

“Alright, now tell me what you want me to do to help.” Seeing that the leader of the Feather Dragons still couldn't accept the reality after a long time, Ye Chen changed the subject.

“I said that I wanted you to help my people escape from this array. The method is also very simple.” The leader of the Feather Dragons calmed down and replied, “You just need to learn the Art of Zhurong and the Art of Goulong, then use these two Divine Powers to attack the entrance of the array.”

“As the arrays are made from the relics of Zhurong and Goulong, the two ancient Divine Beasts, these two energies can break the balance of the two arrays and cause them to collapse when they are used on the array of the opposite attribute at the entrance. This is the idea Divine Beast Goulong came up with.” It quickly added.

“This is a little difficult.” Ye Chen frowned slightly. “To cultivate these two cultivation arts together, one must possess both the water and fire attributes. You guys are unable to cultivate them because you can't fulfill the condition, right?”

“That's right. There are very few mutant beasts that possess two types of Spiritual Energy that innately counter each other.” The leader of the Feather Dragons sighed. “Although the Dragons have many attributes, we can't cultivate arts that are of two attributes that are opposite to each other.”

Ye Chen nodded.

For example, the Godly Sea Steadying Needle also had many types of Spiritual Energy. However, its main Spiritual Energy was still of the water attribute. Although it could convert Spiritual Energy into other attributes to release it, it couldn't cultivate arts of other types of Spiritual Energy.

There was also the Kun Peng, which was similar to it. It had both the identity of Yin and Yang but it was a water-type mutated beast after all.

He searched through all the books and materials he had read. There seemed to be no mutated beast that could break this cruel pattern.

“However, Divine Beast Goulong chose you. That's why I want you to help me… You have two types of Spiritual Energy, right?” Before Ye Chen could finish thinking, the leader of the Feather Dragons asked this question.

“You want me to learn it?” Ye Chen was stunned.

“That's right.” The leader of the Feather Dragons explained, “As far as I know, only humans can have two opposing attributes and cultivate the corresponding cultivation arts. This is the characteristic of the array that traps us. Without the help of humans, we won't be able to escape!”

Then, its huge dragon body suddenly bent down and its dragon head extended in front of Ye Chen.

“Mr. Ye, if you can help my people escape, the Feather Dragons will do our best to help you if you need anything in the future!”

Ye Chen looked at the dragon that was begging him and felt a bit sad in his mind.

A Divine Beast with a combat strength of the Ten-Million Level was persecuted by humans and locked in a narrow array for hundreds of years. It had no choice but to ask a human with a combat strength of Level 100,000. That was too suffocating no matter what.

However, he had just obtained the constitutions of the two types of Spiritual Energy. Even he was worried about practicing the skills developed by an ancient Divine Beast. No matter what, he had to have someone to protect him on his side…

“Alright, I promise you, but I have conditions too.” Ye Chen thought about the pros and cons and finally replied like this.

“Mr. Ye, if you can help our kind regain our freedom, we'll accept any conditions!” The leader of the Feather Dragons replied quickly. “Then, listen carefully. If I help you regain freedom, I will have to take away Zhurong's relic and Goulong's relic here. These two things are very important to me.” Ye Chen said.

The two items were the key to the arrays. In addition, he had a lot of doubts about Zhurong's relic and Goulong's relic also had the consciousness of the ancient Divine Beast, so they were indeed very beneficial to Ye Chen.

“This certainly isn't a problem. I believe Divine Beast Goulong will not have any objections.” The leader of the Feather Dragons agreed immediately.

“Also, I've only recently obtained the two types of Spiritual Energy. When I'm practicing, I need you and my Divine Beasts to protect me.” Ye Chen made the second request.

“Sure. If you're willing to help, you'll be my kind's lifesaver. I'll definitely do my best to protect you!” The leader of the Feather Dragons nodded.

“As for the third one, it might be a little difficult.” Ye Chen thought for a moment and continued, “I only have the Art of Goulong that I found in your array. As for the Art of Zhurong… I'm afraid that Senior Goulong has misunderstood me. I don't have this cultivation

art.”

Ye Chen reached his hand out and pointed at the Immortal Phoenix.

“This is my Divine Beast. It's called Sun God Envoy. It's one of the Immortal Phoenixes.” He introduced it to the leader of the Feather Dragons.

“I do have a fire-type constitution, but it's actually the one who cultivates the Art of Zhurong. If I want to cultivate such a cultivation art, I'm afraid I need you to provide me with materials to make a new cultivation art tablet.”

The Immortal Phoenix wasn't Zhurong itself. It was impossible for it to directly teach Ye Chen the Art of Zhurong. And now, Ye Chen was also unable to leave the array. It was impossible for him to find Zhurong. He could only choose to let the Immortal Phoenix replicate a cultivation art tablet to learn the art.

“This might be a little difficult…” The leader of the Feather Dragons was also in a difficult position. “The cultivation art tablet is made of white jade or spirit wood. We really lack these materials here.”

“Can they be substituted with Spirit Stones?” Ye Chen asked and turned to the Immortal Phoenix. “Do you want to try it?”

At this moment, the Immortal Phoenix leaned over with a speechless expression.

“Master, that's not necessary!” It picked up a golden feather. “Isn't there a lot of Senior Zhurong's cultivation arts in this feather? The Art of Zhurong is inside.”

Ye Chen was dumbfounded. “F*ck? I forgot!”
