Desolate Era: Hatching a Phoenix at the Beginning

Chapter 100: Ye Chen Obtains a New Constitution, The Immortal Phoenix Is in Danger

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The effect of a Planet-Grade beast’s blood was astonishing, but it would be a waste if not all of its energy was absorbed.

For example, when Little Purple was injured before, in order for it to absorb all the blood of the pseudo-Star beast, the Kun Peng swallowed Little Purple into its stomach and created an independent space for it, allowing Little Purple to recuperate for a long time alone. Only then was the problem of
energy leakage solved.

However, Ye Chen didn’t have this concern this time. As long as the mutated beasts absorbed blood in this array, the released energy would keep circling inside the array, making it convenient for the mutated beasts to absorb it again.

“Tjust don’t know how long it will take this time…” Ye Chen waited for the few mutated beasts to enter the cultivation state before finding an empty space to practice the Human Forbidden Art he learned last night.

However, after a while, he discovered a special situation.

‘The energy in the array had increased significantly. It was different from the calm and thick water-type Spiritual Energy before. There was also a faint vicious energy that contained a bloody aura. However, it had been greatly weakened, allowing him to absorb it.
This extra energy was clearly coming from the direction of the three mutated beasts that were absorbing the blood of the Planet-Grade Titan Python. When Ye Chen shifted his gaze in their direction, a system notification popped up.

[Reminder: A relatively calm wild beast energy has appeared. Humans with a defense power of above 5,000 can also absorb it.]

Ye Chen pondered for a moment and figured out the current situation.

There was certainly energy in the blood of wild beasts, but most of their viciousness was also attached to the blood. After the blood was absorbed by the mutated beasts, the energy emitted would be relatively calm.

At first, Ye Chen thought that this would mainly benefit the Kun Peng and Little Purple. The two of them had the Innate Divine Power to devour and could absorb energy much faster than other mutated beasts. However, he didn’t expect that he could also use the Seamless Body to absorb some of the wild
beast energy that was filtered by the mutated beasts.

“So this is how humans absorb the energy of wild beasts.” Ye Chen exclaimed, “It’s so convenient to have Divine Beasts.”
As a pure human, he didn’t dare to directly absorb the blood of an ancient beast. Although it would bring about great benefits, the violent energy could only be resisted by advanced mutated beasts. If a person absorbed it, he would most likely be driven crazy.
According to the system notification, the only mutated beast item that could keep humans safe during cultivation was the blood of contracted Divine Beasts. However, the Divine Beasts in Ye Chen’s hands were at most in the growth period and were still far from matching.

Therefore, Ye Chen could only absorb the energy that leaked out after the mutated beasts absorbed the blood of the wild beast. At the same time, he prayed that the Immortal Phoenix and the Kun Peng would grow up faster and give him some blood and Spiritual Energy to repay him for raising them
After all, only the two of them didn’t have reproductive isolation among the five Divine Beasts.

“Forget it. Let’s not think about it anymore.” Ye Chen shook his head. If his thoughts were to be discovered by the Divine Beasts, they would denounce him together.

He approached the Immortal Phoenix that was absorbing Spiritual Energy and sat down. He felt that as the Spiritual Energy of Water and Fire interweaved, the Yin Yang Taichi Fish in his body spun faster and the wild beast energy that spread to this place was absorbed into his body.
However, the energy of a wild beast was different from Spiritual Energy. After it was absorbed, it didn’t quickly fuse into the meridians. Instead, it accumulated in the dantian and slowly converted.

This made Ye Chen feel a little heavy and cold. He couldn’t help but shiver.

“Could it be that the energy of the wild beast and my own power are repelling each other?” Ye Chen tried for a long time but the speed of the energy conversion was still slow, making him very puzzled. “Why do I feel that even the movement of the Yin Yang Taichi Fish has become slower? The difference
between the two is actually that great…”

Just as he was feeling troubled, the system notifications appeared again.

[Reminder: Body Transformation is in progress. Please wait patiently.]

[Hidden prompt message: After absorbing the energy of mutated beasts of the Planet Grade or above, you will obtain the constitution of the corresponding attribute. When you succeed, you can cultivate part of the mutated beast cultivation art of the corresponding attribute. ]
[Hidden prompt message: Humans can get all types of attributes by absorbing the energy of mutated beasts.]

“Tm going to obtain a water-type constitution?” Ye Chen was stunned. “I can cultivate cultivation arts for mutated beasts. This is too convenient.”

The cultivation arts for mutated beasts were much easier to find than those for humans.

He quickly calmed his mind and carefully sensed the cold Spiritual Energy flowing in his body. It felt a little similar to the feeling when he absorbed the water-type Spiritual Energy. However, the cold feeling was even stronger. It was more like a transformation of his meridians and Spiritual Energy.
At the same time, as the energy slowly converted, the cold feeling was also fading. Or rather, Ye Chen felt that his body was slowly adapting to it.

“No wonder the transformation speed is so slow. It’s safer to slow down the transformation of the body.” Ye Chen was relieved. He closed his eyes and started to concentrate. He urged the Spiritual Energy in his body to speed up the conversion of the wild beast’s energy.

After the last trace of energy was converted, Ye Chen opened his eyes. He saw four mutated beasts gathering in front of him and staring at him.

“Master, you’re finally awake! You’ve been in this state for a long time. We didn’t dare to wake you.” Little Purple said anxiously.

“Hey, why is Master’s aura a little different? It’s a bit like Little Purple’s.” The Kun Peng sensed Ye Chen’s change very sensitively.

“Don’t worry about that. Master, it’s good that you’re awake. Something serious has happened!” Monkey shouted anxiously, “Big Sister touched a cultivation art and was inexplicably sucked away!”

Ye Chen was immediately shocked.

“Why didn’t you wait for me to wake up before touching the cultivation art? You’re too reckless!” He asked anxiously, “Which cultivation art sucked the Sun God Envoy away?”

“This is it.” The Kun Peng brought Ye Chen to the altar and pointed at a cultivation art tablet on the ground with its toe. It said aggrievedly, “We didn’t move them. Big Sister only accidentally stepped on it. Since you hadn’t woken up, we didn’t dare to follow Big Sister.”

“It was sucked away even just by stepping on it accidentally? We can only read a cultivation art when it’s placed on our foreheads.” Ye Chen looked at the cultivation art in confusion.

He remembered that the Kun Peng had only discovered the Mystic Realm when it was reading the cultivation art.

[Ice Fire Armor]

[Hidden prompt message: Secret art of the Ice Fire Beetle Race, Planet Grade. Obtained at the third level of the Ice Fire Beetle Race’s Mystic Realm. A water-type mutated beast can learn it. It can defend against fire-type attacks and can also be used as a cage to temporarily trap fire-type mutated beasts
with lower combat power.]

“Oh no, this skill happens to be used for restraining fire-type mutated beasts!” Ye Chen frowned tightly. “It might be connected to the third level of the Mystic Realm. Everyone, prepare yourselves. We have to get in quickly too!”
