Desolate Era: Hatching a Phoenix at the Beginning

Chapter 89: Entering the Underground of the Pavilion and

DIscovering a New Altar

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Ye Chen jumped off the Immortal Phoenix’s back and landed on the bottom

floor of the Pavilion. He started observing carefully.

The ground floor of the Pavilion was made up of an entire piece of Spirit Stone.

Although it had been burnt black, it didn’t crack. It still emitted a strong

Spiritual Energy. Faint patterns could even be seen. It was obvious that this

was the center of the Mute Array in the entire courtyard.

Ye Chen was a little glad. If he hadn’t been able to communicate with the Divine

Beast around him through telepathy, they would have caused more trouble in

the Mute Array.

“Master, I can be sure that the aura of that Mystic Realm treasures is coming

from below.” The Immortal Phoenix followed Ye Chen around the bottom floor

and said in certainty.

The Kun Peng nodded as well. It was the only mutated beast here that had been

to a Mystic Realm. With its affirmation, Ye Chen was also relieved.

“We have to think of a way to go down. There are secret books and cultivation

arts hidden here. It’s impossible that there are no other exits. We have to look

for them.” Ye Chen thought for a moment and lowered his head to say to the

Kun Peng, which was on his shoulder, “Kun Peng, can you clean up the bottom

floor?

After hearing this, the Kun Peng’s eyes widened.

“Master, you aren’t asking me to swallow this pile of trash, are you?” It cried

out strangely. “The Devouring skill can’t be used like this!”

When the other mutated beasts heard this, they immediately laughed together.

How could Monkey, who always argued with the Kun Peng, let go of this

opportunity? It immediately started teasing the Kun Peng, angering the Kun

Peng to the point that it wanted to pull the hair on its head. In an instant, the

two Divine Beasts started fooling around on Ye Chen’s body.

“Stop fooling around.” Ye Chen was also amused. He originally wanted to clean

the black ashes on the floor so that he could see the patterns on it. He didn’t

expect that the meaning of his words would be twisted. “You idiot, I want you

to release some water vapor so that I can make sure if there are any traps on

the floor. Who asked you to eat trash?

Perhaps because he had been living with the Divine Beasts, Ye Chen felt that

these fellows became less and less like mutated beasts. Instead, they were like

a bunch of playful children who wouldn’t do things seriously unless it was a

serious matter.

He didn’t find this troublesome. It made him happy instead if the atmosphere

around him was a bit more lively.

After Ye Chen explained, the Kun Peng put on an expression of realization and

released water vapor in embarrassment.

Soon, some water droplets appeared on the floor of the Pavilion and they

gathered into a shallow stream. The black ashes from the Great Sun True Fire

were peeled off from the Spirit Stones by the Spiritual Energy in the water and

ran to both sides. The water was soon evaporated by the heat emitted by the

Immortal Phoenix at the edge of the wall.

A huge totem was exposed on the ground, like a cage with several large snakes.

Looking carefully, the eyes of the large snake in the middle were two smal

pits, lookinglike a pair of calm blind eyes.

At this moment, a system notification appeared.

[Reminder: Drop the blood of an advanced water-type mutated beast into the

eyes of the Mutated Beast Totem to open the underground palace.]

(Hidden prompt message: There are a lot of snake-type mutated beasts in the

underground palace. Please choose the mutated beast for opening the

underground palace carefully.)

“It’s so convenient to see the hidden hints.” Ye Chen walked on top of the totem

and summoned Little Purple from his arms. “Little Purple, I have to borrow

two drops of your blood to open the door. There will be snake-type mutated

beasts down there. Your blood is more useful.

Little Purple nodded obediently and touched the tip of its tail on the horn on its

head. Blood slowly dripped down. Ye Chen held Little Purple above the totem as

blood dropped into the pits and the large snake’s eyes were dyed red.

In an instant, the totem emitted a faint purple light.

As the purple light appeared, the Spirit Stones under Ye Chen’s feet shook

slightly. Then, the entire floor started to go down.

The Li family had clearly spent a lot of money on the security of the

underground palace. The floor with the totem had fallen by five to six meters

and only revealed four walls made of large pieces of blue and white Spirit

Stones. Going further down, an entrance to a dark tunnel appeared on one of

the stone walls.

These rich people really hide their treasures wel.”Ye Chen stepped into the

tunnel and exclaimed.

However, right at this moment, something unexpected happened. The moment

he stepped into the tunnel, the ground outside quickly rose and locked him

and the five mutated beasts in the tunnel, sending them into darkness.

“Oh no! Master, have we fallen into a trap?

“Tl light the fire now! Ouch, Monkey, don’t push me!”

“If anyone dares to lock us up, T’l tear this place down and go out to smash

them!

The beasts immediately became noisy.

“Stop arguing” Ye Chen took out the Snow Soul Pearl from his bag

speechlessly. “You’re not allowed to burn the place or tear down the walls. We

still have to look for the treasures.

Under the illumination of the Snow sSoul Pearl, Ye Chen walked towards the end

of the tunnel and finally stopped in front of a door.

It was a door with a totem painted on it, but it was somewhat different from

the one on the ground before. The few large snakes in the cage merged into one

with two sharp horns and a third eye appeared on its head.

“Master, look! That’s Little Purple on the totem!” Monkey shouted in surprise.

Little Purple also stuck its head out of Ye Chen’s arms and stared at the totem

on the wall. After a while, it said, “No, there are no eyes on the top of my head.”

“This is indeed not Little Purple.” Ye Chen replied in a deep voice. “This is the

Titan Python with awakened bloodlines”

“Theyre from the same race as Little Purple’s?” Monkey looked at Ye Chen with

eyes filled with admiration. “Tve never seen them before! Master, how did you

know?

Ye Chen didn’t reply. He was a little shocked when he saw another hint appear

in front of the door.

[Hidden prompt message: Let an advanced mutated beast of the Python Race

resonate with the Mutated Beast Totem to open the Python Race’s altar. The

awakening of bloodline requires sacrifices of the corresponding race.]

Python Race’s altar, bloodline awakening. Could this be the same as the

Ancient Altar, a place where humans used to create Divine Beasts?

As artificial Divine Beasts, Little Purple and Monkey didn’t inherit the

cultivation methods from their bloodlines, so they were inferior to the

Immortal Phoenix and the Kun Peng in terms of cultivation. If Little Purple

could awaken its bloodline through the altar, that meant that Monkey might be

able to do the same.

If the Ancient Altar was the place to create Divine Beasts, then the altar here

would be the place for bloodline purification to be used together.

Humans at that time developed various altars, but they had never been able to

produce Divine Beasts in bulk. It was probably because it was too difficult to

create a qualified Divine Beast Egg. In addition, the Primitive Burial Ground

where the Ancient Altar was located was sealed. So, such an altar lost its

meaning as well.

However, this meant a lot to Ye Chen.

If he could succeed this time, he would have to put the search for the various

altars on the agenda.

“Little Purple, release your power and try to resonate with this door.” Ye Chen

couldn’t help but become serious. “There might be something that can make

you a real Titan Python behind this door.”

He saw that Little Purple’s eyes also brightened.
