Desolate Era: Hatching a Phoenix at the Beginning

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Just like when Ye Chen entered the array last time, the light in the altar had already changed from the strong green light during the bloodline awakening to a faint purple color. However, because of the resonance after Little Purple’s awakening, the remains of the wild beasts here had turned into ashes

and were sucked into the altar.

This way, the array appeared especially spacious.

The Immortal Phoenix and the Kun Peng floated in the air in their original forms. As the two Divine Beasts kept flapping their wings, wind blew in the entire array. On the stone pillars around the altar, the treasures hanging on the chains everywhere clanked.

“Master, now that we’ve finished using the altar, can I take down all these treasures?” The Immortal Phoenix stopped on a stone pillar and asked. Last time, it was the first Divine Beast to discover these treasures. It must have been itching to take these treasures for a long time.

“Wait, Sun God Envoy. Don’t do that.” Ye Chen stopped the Immortal Phoenix from reaching its beak towards the treasure again. “This is the Python Race’s altar and you are a fire-type Divine Beast, so you might repel each other. Let Little Purple, who is familiar with this place, do it.”

Little Purple nodded gently and went forward. It shrunk its body slightly as it twined up a stone pillar. Soon, it reached the chain.

It didn’t use its sharp teeth to pick the treasures on the chain. Instead, it raised its body and lifted up some of its scales.

At this moment, Ye Chen noticed that the middle line from Little Purple’s tail to its head was actually covered by many thin and long scales. One end of the scales was very sharp and when they raised, they were like sharp spikes emitting purple light. Apparently, they had powerful destructive power.

However, Little Purple only treated these spikes as keys. As it moved agilely on the chain, the rings used to hang the 24 unique treasures were removed from the chain and hung on Little Purple’s body.

After a while, Little Purple circled down from the top of the altar and returned to Ye Chen. The light on the altar was completely extinguished.

(Reminder: The Python Race’s altar has entered a dormant state]

“It’s okay now.” Ye Chen walked forward and took down 24 different treasures from the scales on Little Purple’s back. He placed them on the ground and stared at them. Then, with the help of the system notifications, he divided the treasures into three types.

The first type was cultivation arts. There were a total of fifteen of them. The second type was Divine Beast blood, with a total of five portions. The third type was Spirit Stones from foreign realms, which had four altogether.

Staring at the various treasures on the ground, Ye Chen felt troubled.

“The cultivation arts are all for water-type mutated beasts. The mutated beasts of other attributes are unable to cultivate them. The blood of the Divine Beast all came from a Titan Python…” He held his forehead and felt like complaining. “The cultivation arts are easy to deal with. The idiot, Little Purple

and the Godly Sea Steadying Needle can all cultivate them. However, the blood of Divine Beast seems to have the words ‘for Little Purple’ written on it.”

“What about the Sun God Envoy and Monkey? I can’t just ask them to sit there, right?”

Ye Chen was helpless. He could only look at the four Spirit Stones from foreign realms.

‘They were different from the advanced Water Spirit Stones used to set up the array. Although they were about the same size, the Spirit Stones hanging on the four chains were of the metal, wood, fire and earth type.

The system also explained their existence considerately.

[Reminder: They contain a lot of energy. They replenish the energy of the four major attributes of metal, wood, fire and earth for the Water Python Race’s altar, strengthening the structure of the altar.]

[Hidden prompt message: Put a certain number of treasures around the altar to strengthen it. You can remove them when you’re not using the altar. If you activate the altar again, please put the Spirit Stones back to their positions and place the treasures around again.]

“In short, the Spirit Stones from the foreign realms can be used at will.”

Ye Chen took out the Fire and Earth Spirit Stone and handed them to the Immortal Phoenix and Monkey. “There aren’t many things that are suitable for the two of you here. You two can absorb the energy from the Spirit Stones to cultivate first. Remember not to damage the Spirit Stones. When I find a

suitable cultivation art for you, I will tell you.”

Then, he turned to Little Purple.

“The five portions of blood are all from a Planet-Grade Titan Python in the Primordial Era. I’ll give them all to you, Little Purple.”

The other Divine Beasts immediately let out envious voices.

“Planet-Grade blood. This is even more powerful than the blood that made Little Purple become a Divine Beast last time. Master, you’re biased. You aren’t even giving me a share of five!” The Kun Peng shouted.

The Godly Sea Steadying Needle couldn’t say anything, so it nodded constantly next to the Kun Peng.

“If Little Purple absorbs the blood, will it become super strong and directly become our boss?” Monkey also ran over and asked. Soon, it was slapped by the Immortal Phoenix with its wing.

“Monkey, our superiority is based on the order of birth. You have to remember that I’m the most superior!”

“Master, I really don’t need this much!” Little Purple was anxious. “Anyone of us will benefit greatly after absorbing such precious blood. There are five portions. Let’s each take one!”

Ye Chen was amused by the intense reaction of the mutated beasts.

He didn’t actually plan to give all five portions of blood to Little Purple.

The five portions of blood all came from a Titan Python. However, as a water-type Planet-Grace beast, the benefits of this blood to various water-type beasts didn’t have any obvious differences. The reason why he said that he wanted to give all the blood to Little Purple was mainly because he wanted to

give Little Purple a chance to do the others a favor.

Little Purple was usually too quiet. Therefore, other than Monkey, no mutated beast was very close to Little Purple. However, as long as Little Purple spoke up this time, the other mutated beasts would definitely have a better impression of it. Ye Chen didn’t mind being a “bad guy” for a better relationship

among his mutated beasts.

He pretended to ponder for a moment before sighing.

“Alright, I didn’t consider it thoroughly before. I thought that since it’s the blood of the Titan Python, it would be a waste not to give it to you.” Ye Chen pretended to feel pity. “However, after second thought, the idiot and the Godly Sea Steadying Needle also need the blood of advanced wild beasts to.

nurture themselves. Hence, I’ll give two portions to them.”

“What about Big Sister and the Great Sage? They need it too!” Little Purple continued to argue seriously.

This time, Ye Chen shook his head firmly.

“The attributes of the Sun God Envoy and Monkey don’t match with the blood. If I give it to them, it’ll be greatly wasted. If I find blood that matches their attributes, I will also be biased towards them.”

‘Then, Ye Chen looked at the Immortal Phoenix and Monkey. They nodded to express their understanding.

Little Purple opened its mouth and wanted to say something. This time, the Kun Peng came forward and rubbed against Little Purple.

“Thank you, Little Purple. You’re usually quiet, but you’re quiet just when it comes to this kind of matter.” It thanked Little Purple from the bottom of its heart. “Stop rejecting. I think this distribution is quite good. Accept the three portions of blood.”

Upon hearing this, Little Purple finally nodded.

The three mutated beasts distributed the blood and swallowed it one after another.

Ye Chen smiled on the side.

“Digest it well. After you finish digesting it, go and practice the cultivation arts, At the same time, help me see if there are any Mystic Realms in the cultivation arts..”
