Chapter 142 Ancient People, Modification and Making of Mutated Beasts

In fact, Ye Chen didn’t think too far about the Li family at first.

About guarding Demon Flame Mountain and creating the Ice Fire Beetle Mystic Realm, he only guessed that the unknown continent-level master had bribed the Li family and the two parties had cooperated.

However, thinking about it now, the Li family was probably a seed that that person had planted during the pioneering era of the Primitive World. Compared to his original guess, it was at least 100 years earlier†“That’s true. That continent-level master lived for more than 500 years. He was already almost 200 years old during the pioneering era of the Primitive World.” Ye Chen pondered and felt a little annoyed. “An old fox who has lived for so long really has a lot of schemes. I wonder what he saw near Fan City at that time that made him leave the altar nearby. Could it be that he knew about the Primitive Burial Ground but couldn’t enter?”

Thinking about the situation when he first came to the Primitive World, Ye Chen felt that it was really possible. After living with those people for a few days, the system notification said that the protection of the Burial Ground had been removed. Perhaps there had always been a different kind of protection in the Burial Ground. Otherwise, there was no way to explain why a continent-level expert who had barged into various Mystic Realms hadn’t been able to find his way in over the years but Wang Dong and Li Yan, these two extremely weak fellows, had accidentally entered?

He was thinking quickly in his mind, but the leader of the Feather Dragons didn’t know his thoughts and was still talking about matters related to the ancient people of the Primitive World.

“So Mr. Ye knows about the altar. Then, do you know what it’s for?” it asked Ye Chen.

Ye Chen nodded and thought that he should clarify everything.

“I know. It’s used to cleanse the bloodline of the mutated beasts of the Python Race that have reached a certain level. When I found that altar before, it was filled with crazy Overlord Pythons. When they saw Little Purple, they crashed into the altar.”

“Those are mutated beasts being modified,” the leader of the Feather Dragons replied. “It seems that those humans have started to modify mutated beasts again in the last few centuries.”

Ye Chen thought for a moment. The eyes of the Overlord Pythons at the altar were red and their behaviors were abnormal. However, at that time, he only thought that it was because they had killed too many of their kind that they went crazy. And yet, after hearing what the leader of the Feather Dragons said, he thought that something was amiss. He couldn’t help but ask, “Are you saying that those Overlord Pythons went crazy because they were modified?”

“That’s right. At that time, it was difficult for people to tame too many powerful Divine Beasts, so they thought of ways to steal young beasts. After forcefully establishing a Beast Spirit Contract with them, they made them provide part of their flesh for research,” the leader of the Feather Dragons replied. “In the beginning, they transplanted the flesh to the same race as these Divine Beasts and thought of ways to make it possible for Divine Beasts to hatch from the Mutated Beast Eggs they laid.”

Then, it looked at the golden feather in Ye Chen’s hand.

“It must be very difficult for you to practice the cultivation arts here. The reason is that you’re a human and your meridians are different from those of mutated beasts,” it explained. “For mutated beasts, it’s also very difficult to accept the flesh of those whose levels are higher than ours and are from another race. Therefore, the modified mutated beasts often become crazy, and so do their descendants. Moreover, although these descendants have the bloodline of the Divine Beasts, they aren’t Divine Beasts.”

“Therefore, they were used as offerings to the altar used to cleanse the bloodline.” Ye Chen understood.

“That’s right. This is the first mutated beast creation project of humans. It’s indeed really cruel.” The leader of the Feather Dragons sighed. “Ah, now that the altar has reopened, I’m afraid it will be very difficult for us to return to our hometown.”

Ye Chen was more optimistic about this than it was.

“You don’t have to worry about that. Didn’t you just say that you can move the location of the entrance to the foriegn realm?” He comforted it. “As long as this skill isn’t lost, you can set the entrance to the foreign realm in my territory. I have a Heaven Mending Barrier there that will prevent those people from finding you.”

The leader of the Feather Dragons nodded. Ye Chen was secretly happy in his mind.

If the Feather Dragons were needed to move the entrance to the Divine Court, it would most likely be blocked by the Heaven Mending Barrier. Only by having a Beast Spirit Contract with him could they enter and leave freely. Planning everything for the other party right now, it would be easier to establish the Beast Spirit Contract by then.

And now, he had more important things to ask.

“I now know what’s with the modification of mutated beasts. Then, what’s the making of mutated beasts about?” he asked.

“I’m not sure about that. The information passed down by the seniors doesn’t talk about it much. It only mentioned that humans discovered a place, the original birthplace of the mutated beasts, which allows the Divine Beasts to borrow the power of the land to complete their reincarnation. It’s just that their bloodline is often impure†| Other than that, I don’t know much else,” the leader of the Feathered Dragons answered regretfully. “Since that place is in the foreign realm where Mr. Ye’s territory is, I believe there must be some clues.”

With that said, it looked at Monkey with something on its mind. “This must be one of the ‘clues’. The incompleteness of characteristics of its race’s bloodline is also a phenomenon that appears on mutated beasts made by humans. It’s just that it’s rare.”

“Don’t speak nonsense to malign me. I’m not incomplete!” Monkey shouted angrily.

Ye Chen temporarily ignored Monkey’s cry of injustice.

“Is there any way to make up for this deficiency?” He asked the leader of the Feather Dragons.

Instead of fighting for verbal pleasure, he might as well think about Monkey and ask if there was a chance to help it return to normal.

“Its forehead is so clean. Even if its bloodline has awakened, it definitely won’t have the Titan’s Eye.” The leader of the Feather Dragons shook its head but added when it saw Monkey’s instantly disappointed expression. “However, it is said that the mutated beasts created by the humans might sometimes have some mutations in their abilities. Therefore, this Divine Beast of yours might not be incomplete but mutated,” it added.

Ye Chen also understood that the leader of the Feather Dragons was only saying this to comfort Monkey. In fact, the situation might not be optimistic at all. Besides, countless altars were now in the hands of others. He really didn’t know how long it would take for him to find the Apes’ altar to awaken Monkey’s bloodline.

Just as he was thinking this, a beam of silver light shot from the direction of the fire array in the distance and instantly arrived in front of him.

It was the Kun Peng. It stood upright and let Little Purple and the Godly Sea Steadying Needle get down from its back. The three Divine Beasts looked at Ye Chen with shocked expressions.

“What’s going on? Did you accidentally trigger the trap again?” Ye Chen asked curiously.

“Master, we didn’t trigger the trap. It’s Little Purple. It figured out the substance that’s wrapping around the fragment of Zhurong’s Spirit Pool!” The Kun Peng replied loudly.
