Desolate Era: Hatching a Phoenix at the Beginning

Then, Ye Chen spoke for the first time in the World Chat and wrote.

"According to my observations, the Protection of the Wilderness is not entirely on oneself. It is infinitely suppressing the strength of the wild beasts and birds around. That is why humans became the public enemy of the wilderness. In the future, the wild beasts will be very violent but it will not be for long. Now, if you can survive, you should live on…"

After sending the message, Ye Chen sat on the back of the Kun Peng and waited for the others' messages. With the young Divine Phoenix around, wild beasts could not get close to them at all.

"Eh, I finally saw Big Boss Ye Chen send a message. I'm so lucky."

"I thought all the big shots were high and mighty and didn't want to chat in the World Chat."

"To think that Ye Chen would dare to think that there would be such an existence that could suppress all the mutated beasts in the wilderness?"

"Hahaha, now that you mention it, I also have an idea. Ye Chen can't defeat the mutated beasts now, so he threw the blame on the Wilderness."

"Previous poster, don't say that. After all, Ye Chen was considered a big shot for some time."

"Is this considered a hero past his prime?"

"Hahaha, you can't be too evil. Otherwise, the Heavenly Dao will reincarnate."

...

"Uh… my image among these people is so bad?" Ye Chen only told everyone his deduction. He never expected that he would be questioned by so many people.

"Believe it or not, I won't be the one crying."

Ye Chen did not want to deal with these people who were making sarcastic remarks. At that moment, Ye Chen noticed that someone had sent him a message in the private chat.

He opened it and had a slight impression that it was the person who had exchanged items with him previously.

[Big Boss Ye Chen, after you finished speaking, I observed for a while. It's just as you said, the Protection of the Wilderness is mostly suppressing the wild beasts.]

[Big brother, do you have any way to avoid this beast's anger? Please teach me (Gratitude)]

Ye Chen was kind enough to reply to a nice person but it was obvious that now was not the time.

That was because the Immortal Phoenix had dropped a treasure chest when it burned a wild beast to death!

[If you can hold your ground, hold your ground. If you can't, kill the beast. A treasure chest just dropped, I will talk to you later.]

After recovering quickly, Ye Chen went straight to the body of the beast.

On the other hand, the person on the other end of the message was dumbfounded. It was easy to understand but hard to digest.

What was going on?

With such strength, was there any need for him to hide?

Treasure chest?

Could it be that Ye Chen killed a certain beast just now and obtained a treasure chest?!

Without hesitation, he wrote this in the World Chat.

In the World Chat.

"The people who said that Big Boss Ye Chen was an honorary fishing master step forward. I want to clear Big Boss Ye Chen's name. The Grand Desolate Plateau has changed drastically and we can't avoid it. Big Boss Ye Chen went out to kill wild beasts and even dropped a treasure chest. Those people who slandered Big Boss Ye Chen probably said that grapes are sour because they can't eat grapes!"

With that, the World Chat became active again.

"May I know your surname? How much meat did Black Ye give you for you to lick like this?"

"Jeez… can't figure out why some people want to be dogs."

"Some people are still unwilling to face reality. It's really easy to go from simple to complicated but going from complicated to simple is difficult."

"Kill a wild beast at this time? If you want to brag, at least give me a hint. I even said that my mutated beast is a Divine Beast!"

"Haha, I have two divine beasts. Believe it or not, they are nothing!"

"..."

All of them were mocking Ye Chen. That was human nature. They would only look up to others when they saw that they were more accomplished than themselves.

Once the person that someone once looked up to became similar to him, the ugliness of human nature would come out.

Those who wanted to speak up for Ye Chen in the World Chat immediately shut up when they saw this. They did not want to become the bootlickers of others.

Meanwhile, Ye Chen was not paying attention to the World Chat at all. He was completely focused on the treasure chest in front of him.

[Poisonous Bronze Treasure Chest: Water, blueprints, materials inside.]

[Activate the treasure chest by burning it with the Immortal Phoenix's Supreme Yang Flames]

[Or the Kun Peng can devour the poison]

"Is it poisonous?"

"Sun God Envoy, you can do it."

It had been a day since he came out and this was the first time a Bronze Chest had appeared.

Everyone only had three chances to open the Treasure Chest every day. The Wooden Treasure Chest that dropped in front was directly ignored by Ye Chen.

There would not be any rare items in the Wooden Treasure Chest. He could not waste the three chances he had every day.

1

"Chirp chirp…"

The Divine Phoenix received the order and spat out to burn the treasure chest.

After a while, a golden text appeared.

[Safe Bronze Treasure Chest. There are water, blueprints, materials inside.]

Seeing that the lethal poison had disappeared, Ye Chen immediately activated it.

[Water: 10 liters]

[Hell Stone: 1]

[Beginner Tribe Spirit Gathering Formation blueprint: 1]

"Spirit Gathering Formation?"

As an old bookworm, Ye Chen was quite familiar with this thing.

Its function was to gather the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy. Within the array, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy would be extremely dense. Be it the cultivation of humans or mutated beasts or the use of Spiritual Energy Points in the tribe, it had infinite uses.

[Host has obtained the blueprint for the construction of the Elementary Tribal Spirit Gathering Formation. Do you want to learn it?]

"Yes, learn," Ye Chen said.

[Materials required to build the blueprint for the Elementary Tribal Spirit Gathering Formation]

Golden Spirit Stone: 3

[Wood Spirit Stone: 4]

[Water Spirit Stone: 2]

[Fire Spirit Stone: 3]

[Earth Spirit Stone: 2]

[Wood: 300]

[Stone: 300]

Spirit Gathering Crystal: 2

[Seven Stones: 1]

Looking at the materials required for the Spirit Gathering Array, Ye Chen looked at the mutated beast meat and other materials in his storage space.

1

He felt as if he had returned to the Grand Desolate Plateau. The spirit stones of various attributes were easy to understand and collect.

What were the Spirit Gathering Crystals and Seven Glorious Stones?

He glanced at the trading area and saw that there were no such materials.

"No, no. What should I do?"

"Then acquire it! I, Ye, have meat, resources, and money!"

3

"I'm going to try every means!"

When Ye Chen thought about this, he felt that he was now extremely heroic.
