Translator: Henyee TranslationsEditor: Henyee Translations

The cultivation art tablets made by the ancient Divine Beasts were extremely rare. Besides, they carried the Spiritual Energy of these powerhouses. They could suppress young Divine Beasts, and at the same time, they were very attractive to mutated beasts with similar attributes.

“T feel that the Spiritual Energy on this cultivation art tablet is very strong, and it’s similar to the Spiritual Energy on Senior Zhurong’s body.” The Immortal Phoenix was the first to speak.

“Master, what is this cultivation art? Can I practice it?” The Kun Peng immediately stole Monkey’s line. “I feel that this item is fated with me…”

“Idiot, what are you talking about! There’s clearly the aura of the Snakes on it. This should belong to Little Purple!” Monkey was an earth-type Divine Beast and wasn’t attracted by the cultivation art. However, it also felt more pressured. Its limbs were shaking non-stop, but it still mustered the courage to

quarrel with the Kun Peng.

“Talso think that this must have been left behind by a senior of the Snakes, Master,” Little Purple said. It didn’t say if it wanted the cultivation art or not, but it couldn’t hide the desire in its eyes.

“Master, if it’s the cultivation art tablet of the Snakes, then the Feather Dragons must be born after the Deep Sea Dragons went ashore and got married with the Snakes. Therefore, it definitely has a deep relationship with the Dragons!” The Godly Sea Steadying Needle provided some information and

immediately asked for benefits for itself.

“Can you not talk about the cultivation art tablet like it’s a disposable item?” The Immortal Phoenix was the only one that wasn’t affected much. Seeing that the other Divine Beasts were staring at the cultivation art tablet in fear or fascination, it was very confused.

“The Immortal Phoenix is right. Why are you fighting over it now? Go back and practice it the way it should.” Ye Chen naturally put on airs like a master and quickly picked up the cultivation art tablet, putting it in his inventory. At the same time, he grumbled in his heart,

“First it was Divine Beast Zhurong, then it was Divine Beast Goulong… Is this really about the legends?”

‘When he saw the Art of Goulong among the Innate Mystic Abilities of a Feather Dragon, he already thought that it looked a little familiar. Thinking about it now, wasn’t this a legendary character?

Before transmigrating, Ye Chen had also read many of his country’s legends. Just like how Zhurong corresponded to the God of Fire in those legends, Goulong corresponded to the God of Water. The knowledge of the previous world inexplicably echoed the mutated beasts in this world.

“However, the most famous God of Water in the legends isn’t Goulong…”

In order to be assured, Ye Chen asked Little Purple to open the Titan’s Eye and ask the mutated beasts to search the cave. He then put away the cultivation art tablet that didn’t contain any aura beside the skeleton and sat down next to it, flipping through the records related to the Human-Faced Snakes.

This gave him another headache over the complicated blood relations of the Divine Beasts.

“Is it a water-type mutated beast or a snake? How is it related to the Immortal Phoenix?” Ye Chen couldn’t help but complain softly.

According to the records, the mutated beasts on the Sun were represented by the Immortal Phoenix, but there were many branches, including Zhurong’s original race, the Human-Faced Birds.

However, in the first mutated beast war in the Primitive World, part of this race fell into the water when fighting the Giant Kun Pengs and lost their wings. These Human-Faced Birds were unable to return to the Sun and thus found a way to transform themselves and live in the water.

And yet, although this method made them the only descendants of the Feather Race that lived in the water, it also changed their attributes and appearance, turning them into Human-Faced Snakes with both the water and earth attributes. Only their terrifying appearance and red hair remained similar to

those of their original race.

With this in ming, the fact that Goulong was Zhurong’s grandson in the legend was also reflected in the racial relationship in the Primitive World.

“After all, the one closest to Goulong is the Immortal Phoenix?” Ye Chen recalled the Immortal Phoenix’s words. “To say that the Spiritual Energy of a dragon is similar to that of Zhurong, of course it’s similar… Let alone blood relations, these two fellows have the same cultivation method!”

Ye Chen also knew a little about the Divine Beast, Goulong.

Just like the original race, the Human-Faced Snakes had less pure Spiritual Energy and were also weaker in strength. However, there was a dragon that had found a way to maximize the effectiveness of the Water Spiritual Energy. In the end, it obtained the ability to tun water into soil.

“Goulong’s life experience is simply like copying Zhurong’s…” Ye Chen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Goulong isn’t Zhurong’s fan, is it? Other than the type of Spiritual Energy, one is water and one is fire, the two are identical.”

“You know the Divine Power of the Divine Beast, Zhurong?” Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice came from the depths of the tunnel.

Ye Chen immediately trembled and wanted to get up but realized that he couldn’t move at all. Under the light of the Spirit Stones, he saw ice vines reaching out from the stone wall and tied him up tightly, dragging him in the direction of the skeleton.

“Oh no, there’s a trap here!” Ye Chen was shocked and immediately wanted to call out to the Divine Beasts. However, the ice vines had already wrapped around his mouth tightly and quickly dragged him into the softened wall.

Ye Chen certainly couldn’t give up on struggling just like that. He quickly gathered a ball of Undying Divine Fire in his palm. However, the ice vines clearly noticed his resistance. It only touched his palm lightly and Ye Chen immediately felt the Spiritual Energy in his body suddenly disappear. The Undying

Divine Fire was instantly extinguished.

“Tm doomed!” This was the only thought left in his mind.

However, the voice hiding behind the ice vines was completely different from the ice vine’s actions. It didn’t sound terrifying but instead sounded like a benevolent old man.

“It’s really rare for a young man like you to know Zhurong’s Divine Power.” The owner of the voice released the ice vines that wrapped around Ye Chen’s mouth and asked, “However, you seem to have just understood the relationship between it and the Art of Goulong?”

“Senior, I’ve just found that cultivation art tablet. How would I be able to understand it before that?” Ye Chen was a little speechless.

“But I didn’t see you read the cultivation art tablet.” The voice replied.

“That’s because you don’t know I have a special ability. I can read the cultivation art as soon as I touch it.” Without knowing who and why this person kidnapped him, Ye Chen didn’t plan to tell him about the system. He simply made up a story.

“Lies!” The voice shouted angrily as the ice vines instantly tightened.

Ye Chen was stunned.

He couldn’t figure out how this old man knew that he was lying, but he clearly realized that if he didn’t speak the truth, the other party would really kill him here.

After thinking about it, he immediately became honest and answered again, “But I really have a special ability. I can tell what kind of cultivation art it is with a single look. It’s just that I can’t lear it.”

This was the truth, but he didn’t tell the whole story.

The other party’s ice vines immediately relaxed and Ye Chen also heaved a sigh of relief.

“Alright, it seems that you didn’t come here to hunt the Feather Dragons?” The voice asked after a moment of silence.

“No! How would I know that there would be Feather Dragons in this Mystic Realm?!” Ye Chen felt very aggrieved. He only came down to look for the secret treasures, Who would have known that there would be a Feather Dragon territory here and that he would even be kidnapped?

The voice went silent again. The ice vines wrapped around him for a while longer before they finally relaxed.

“You’re not lying,” the voice said. “Go and find the leader of the Feather Dragons. It has something to say to you..”
