Desolate Era: Hatching a Phoenix at the Beginning

Chapter 85: Another Mystic Realm? Gaining a New Divine Power from the Dragons

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Fan City was very busy at night. There were many small stalls in the night market. They were opened close to each other on the sides of the road, all the way to the end.

The back door of the Li Residence was at the end of the street of the night market, very close to the Pavilion that was on fire.

Ye Chen slowed down and strolled in the night market, listening carefully to people’s discussion.

“The Li family is really unlucky. They just lost a young master. And now, their family’s secret books have been stolen.”

“Their family’s secret book? Back when Fan City was built, countless people worked hard to obtain the treasures but they snatched them all away! They deserve what happened!”

“I heard that the big families that cultivated the land in the city are all hiding a batch of treasures. Those are all good stuff they found during the exploration of the Mystic Realm. However, they haven’t had a beast with million-level combat strength for many years. Why are they so weak?”

“Hah, without mutated beasts of a suitable level, it’s useless even if they have the secret books. Not to mention Fan City, there aren’t many places in the entire state that still have Divine Beasts. The secret books they snatched are left there to rot. What a pity…”

“The City Lord has wanted to deal with these people for a long time. You don’t know about this, but this fire was strange. It couldn’t be extinguished no matter what. Some people say that the young master from the City Lord Residence did that.”

“I think so too. Who asked them to fight with the City Lord’s family over mutated beasts…”

Ye Chen listened and silently digested the information in these people’s words.

It turned out that a flourishing place like Fan City also had a Mystic Realm like the Primitive Burial Ground. After the treasures were discovered and taken, a few families built Fan City on it and snatched all kinds of secret books, waiting until they had Divine Beasts before cultivating.

Building a city on a grave was genius! They didn’t even have to worry that they hadn’t found all the good stuff, as they had blocked the grave! Ye Chen couldn’t help but want to clap.

His doubt was reasonable.

To be able to produce a cultivation arts that required a Divine Beast, it meant that the level of this Mystic Realm wasn’t much different from that of the tombs of the ancient gods that he had explored.

Mystic Realms had levels after levels. If one didn’t find the right location, they would definitely not be able to open it.

At that time, Ye Chen had the strength of Level 10,000. He could safely open the second level at most. The further down he went, the more difficult the Mystic Realm would get. It was obvious that the gods were all above the Planet Level. How could he easily dig through their graves with his strength of Level 10,000?

Therefore, the members of the large families in Fan City were at most at the Million Level, but normally at Level 100,000. How could they possibly take all the treasures that could form the Mystic Realm? There was definitely still a large number of treasures underground.

Hence, Ye Chen decided to enter these explored Mystic Realms to take a look.

“Sun God Envoy, come out.” He walked to a dark alley and called out the Immortal Phoenix. “Let’s not attract the attention of others later. Can you bring me up to the sky? I want to see Fan City from above.”

“It’s easy to bring Master up to the sky but it’s difficult not to attract people’s attention!” The Immortal Phoenix flapped its wings. “Master, you know that. Once I appear, I will definitely be the center of attention!”

Ye Chen couldn’t help but purse his lips. Although what the Sun God Envoy said was true, why did it sound so narcissistic?

Perhaps the Immortal Phoenix could see that Ye Chen didn’t believe it, it jumped onto Ye Chen’s shoulder again and said softly, “Why don’t I go and find the idiot for you? It’s not a fire-type beast. If it flies in the sky outside the city at night, it might be able to hide from people’s eyes.”

“Alright, the idiot should be done with that matter. Go and find it.” Ye Chen nodded. He trusted the abilities of these two flying-type Divine Beasts. Moreover, as mutated beasts, they would indeed understand each other better.

However, at this moment, a familiar sound of a bird came.

“Chirp!”

A bird with shiny feathers came to Ye Chen with a jade tablet in its beak. It was the Kun Peng. It couldn’t find Ye Chen and the other companions in the inn, so it quickly searched the entire city and finally found Ye Chen.

“Idiot, you came back so late. Master almost wanted me to go and see if something happened to you.” The Immortal Phoenix joked.

Monkey climbed up Ye Chen’s arm and looked at the jade tablet held in the Kun Peng’s beak. “What is this? Is it also a cultivation art? Master, can we cultivate it?”

“You’re so impatient. Be quiet!” Ye Chen patted Monkey’s head gently and focused his gaze on the jade tablet.

[Poison Illusion Art]

[Hidden prompt message: Secret art of the Green Unicorns, Pseudo-Star Level. Obtained on the second level of the Green Unicorn Mystic Realm. Water-type mutated beasts can learn to use water poison to attack, causing the one who comes into contact with the water to have illusions and stop moving.]

[Hidden prompt message: The poison can swim in water to attack specific targets.]

“This is something that can only be cultivated by water-type beasts. It’s something for the Kun Peng and Little Purple.” Ye Chen called Little Purple out and turned to the Kun Peng. “This cultivation art was found in Gao Ming’s house? I didn’t expect this fellow to have such a good thing. You have the most credit. Let’s cultivate first.”

“I can’t. I still have a lot of materials with me. I may digest them accidentally during cultivation. I can only cultivate after I get them out.” The Kun Peng shook its head. Suddenly, its eyes widened. “Wait, Master, the Godly Sea Steadying Needle is still in my stomach. I almost forgot!”

After saying that, the aura on its body quickly spinned into a ball of light and a small fish appeared from it. Soon, the Kun Peng spat out the Godly Sea Steadying Needle that had the shape of an iron rod.

“Fortunately, the idiot Kun Peng remembers you.” Ye Chen reached out and caught this mutated beast that he had almost forgotten about. He said, “Stop pretending. If you don’t show yourself now, are you waiting for me to do it for you?”

Hearing his words, the Godly Sea Steadying Needle vibrated. Being surrounded by faint light, it transformed into a silver-gray snake about the size of Little Purple. It was obvious that it was in a concealed form.

At this moment, the information about the Godly Sea Steadying Needle finally appeared on the system interface.

[Godly Sea Steadying Needle]

[Race: Deep Sea Dragon]

[Rank: SSS (?) pseudo Divine Beast]

[Maturity: Infant]

[Innate Divine Power: Concealment Mirage, Poseidon Suppression]

[Attack: 7000 (?)]

[Defense: 10700 (?)]

Ye Chen was stunned when he saw the data of the Godly Sea Steadying Needle.

He remembered that when Little Purple first hatched, the interface showed that its level was S(SS), which meant that Little Purple was an artificial Divine Beast that could advance to a higher level. However, this was the first time he had seen a mutated beast that had a question mark behind its level, and attack and defense value.

Could this mean that the Godly Sea Steadying Needle was also a mutated beast that could advance to a higher level? Or could it be that the current level of the Godly Sea Steadying Needle was fake?

Ye Chen was confused.

The Godly Sea Steadying Needle looked around hesitantly in his hand and gently leaned towards Little Purple before being slapped by Monkey.

“What are you looking at? Little Purple, let’s stay away from it!” Monkey picked Little Purple up and agilely retreated to Ye Chen’s shoulder, causing the other Divine Beasts to tease it.

“Monkey, stop fooling around. We’ll be family in the future,” Ye Chen said with a smile. He felt that the Godly Sea Steadying Needle wanted to get closer to him, so he touched the Immortal Phoenix’s sharp beak with his finger and put the blood that oozed out in front of the Godly Sea Steadying Needle.

“If you’re willing to leave a bastard like Gao Ming and come with me, show me the Beast Spirit Contract and let me drop my blood on it.”

Little Purple and Monkey taught Ye Chen this method. In fact, he could directly contract the Godly Sea Steadying Needle. However, looking at this timid little snake, Ye Chen inexplicably felt that he should show it some care.

The Godly Sea Steadying Needle was very cooperative. It revealed the Beast Spirit Contract on its tail and took Ye Chen’s blood. In an instant, the Beast Spirit Contract was formed.

Perhaps because it wasn’t hatched, there were no obvious changes on the Godly Sea Steadying Needle. Instead, Ye Chen felt that he got something on his body.

He opened his panel.

In the “Divine Power” column, a new skill appeared, Concealment Mirage.
