Chapter 1064: Penance in the God Sea

“During the following period of time, you can practice here, and the time spent for practice can be self-determined. Though this place is exalted spiritually, it contains plenty of blood essence of great Divine Beasts, hence it is also overbearing. With your level of power, you should perhaps not stay too long. Otherwise, you will inevitably be tainted by the spirit of the blood, and that will be a great disadvantage in obtaining your own pure spiritual energy.”

Mu Chen’s gaze was blazing. As he and Nine Nether understood what the beauty clad in palace garments said, they nodded in agreement. Even if the Undying Bird Sovereign Beast had not mentioned this, they were still aware of it. Although the spiritual energy in this land was strong, it also smelled more of blood spirit. If one failed to control themselves, it might be too late before they realized it.

“This space can only be opened from the outside world by the three of us, and as we speak, our spiritual energy gradually diminishes, so this should be the last time we will be appearing in the outside world.”

Mu Chen frowned. So that implies that this will be the last time this space in the God Sea is opened? Once they left, no one could ever enter again.

At that thought, Mu Chen can’t help but feel extremely dejected. At this moment in time, he and Nine Nether only had limited power, and it was impossible to completely absorb the spiritual power of this land into their own bodies. They were like two ants that had fallen into a granary. No matter how much space their belly had, they still couldn’t finish everything.

As he pondered, Mu Chen felt more unwilling. Looking at the Three Sovereign Beasts, he spoke solemnly, “This place was the motherland of many elders from the Land of the Divine Beasts. If we just let it disappear with the passing of time, how can it live up to their will?

“Right now, the Great Thousand World is peaceful, but the extraterritorial clans have their eyes on it. They are like hungry wolves, unwilling to remain peaceful. In the future once they initiate another invasion, they will certainly give all they can, and when that time comes, the Great Thousand World will stand at the brink of perishing. In consideration of that, if the younger generations feel as if they have done their part to defend the Great Thousand World as their many elders from the Land of the Divine Beasts did, they will certainly recognize this effort.”

Having heard Mu Chen’s momentous words, the three of them, including the beauty clad in palace garments, were left stunned. Their expressions immediately revealed some weighed intentions. Their disdain towards the extraterritorial clans was much deeper than Mu Chen could have expected. The Land of the Divine Beasts was their motherland, but it had been obliterated completely by those extraterritorial clans. Countless members of their own tribe, friends and family, perished in the war.

Now here they were, fallen and no longer able to seek revenge. If they could just utilize their remaining power to set up some obstacles or threats to the extraterritorial clans for the days to come, that would be the one last thing they would want to accomplish.

Nevertheless, the unlocking of this God Sea was not easy. This land had been guarded by the will of countless powerful individuals of the Land of the Divine Beasts. It was hard to forcibly break through from the outside, even if someone like a Heavenly Sovereign wanted to. As their power gradually disappeared, once it was completely gone, it was feared that this space would no longer be able to be unlocked again.

The three locked their gazes, and in that split second, it was as if they had decided something unanimously. The three touched their hands together, and a burst of aura shined through. Finally, a piece of jade crystalized between their palms, and it gave out waves of obscure vibrations.

As the jade piece condensed into its form, Mu Chen and Nine Nether both noticed that their three bodies slowly became illusory, looking weak as if they were about to disappear with the wind.

The beauty clad in palace garments held the jade amulet and handed it over to Mu Chen. She smiled and said, “You little guy, aren’t you just after the power in this land? And here you are, speaking so righteously. But your words are also true. Instead of letting the power of this land be sealed forever, why not pass it down to the future generations. You see, we might even be able to create a powerful one, one strong enough to guard the Great Thousand World.

“This jade amulet holds the last of our power within the three of us. One day, if you feel as though you are worthy enough to inherit the power of this land, you can use it to return here, but be reminded that it can only be used once.”

It was a little embarrassing for Mu Chen, as his thoughts were discerned by the beauty clad in palace garments, but when he noticed that there was no hint of dissatisfaction in her speech but rather a solemn instruction, his expression also became solemn.

He could feel the kind of entrustment and expectation from the Three Sovereign Beasts, which made him feel somewhat humbled. In the ancient times, the Three Sovereign Beasts fell to protect this world. At this very moment, even after they had fallen, they still wanted to give all their might for this piece of land. The kind of righteousness they demonstrated was a spirit Mu Chen couldn’t help but commend them for.

The Three Sovereign Beasts could have had more time, but they would rather turn their final power into a chance for Mu Chen to re-enter the land, even if the price paid sped up their dissipation.

Mu Chen respectfully spread his hands and took hold of the jade amulet. He then solemnly cupped his fists, bowed to the Three Sovereign Beasts, and looked dignified. “If in the future, the Great Thousand World is once again invaded by the extraterritorial clans, I vow to protect it with my life.”

Over the years, Mu Chen had outgrown the once innocent teenager he used to be. Although he had never directly encountered the mysterious and strange extraterritorial clans, from the debris left behind on the remaining ancient battlefields, he could see the obvious clues. They were evil and ferocious, and couldn’t coexist in peace with the creatures of the Great Thousand World. Any sign of their aggression would inevitably affect the entire world. By then, even if it was to protect the people around him, he would certainly give everything to fight the extraterritorial clans.

Looking at Mu Chen’s solemn face, the Three Sovereign Beasts let out satisfied grins, then nodded and added, “That being the case, take enough time to practice.”

The beauty clad in palace garments looked at Nine Nether with a gentle gaze in her beautiful eyes. “I will not be here for long. In the meantime, I might be able to guide you onto the path of evolution of the Undying Bird.”

Those in the Nine Netherbird Clan were her rightful descendants. Now that they were able to meet in her last moments, she did not mind offering some guidance.

As soon as Nine Nether heard those words, her face shined with excitement. “Thank you, elder!” Receiving guidance from a real Undying Bird was to her a fate from heaven. Not many people enjoyed this privilege, even within the Phoenix family, not to mention among the Nine Netherbird Clan.

Mu Chen couldn’t help but feel delighted for Nine Nether. He no longer hesitated. His figure moved and landed right on the bright red ocean. He then sat, crossing his legs. While he sat on the sea’s surface, even before he began to practice, he could already feel the mist of the exalted blood spirit emerging from below him, finally seeping into his body bit by bit.

From within his body, the flesh and blood immediately simmered as if irritated. The blood spirit entering his body fused into his flesh and blood. He could hear it as it hissed. His body greedily consumed the blood spirit, strengthening itself.

Previously, Mu Chen had commanded the Heavenly Beast Army, and since then, his body had borne the discomfort caused by counterbite. At that very moment, the discomfort completely vanished as power surged and flowed through his limbs. He could feel his physical state instantly reaching its peak.

Buzz!

As his body was flushed with blood spirit, Mu Chen suddenly felt his arms vibrating. He saw the real spirit of the real dragon and phoenix entrenched in his arms, sparkling with shimmering gold light. They darted and flew out from his arms and circled around him.

Whoosh!

The spirit of the real dragon and real phoenix were about a meter long and soared around Mu Chen, letting out cries of the dragon and the phoenix. Suddenly, the blood of the sea surged with waves. Columns of blood water shot up roaring, continuously flowing towards the spirit of the true dragon and phoenix as they ravenously swallowed everything in a breath.

As the immense blood spirit was continuously absorbed, Mu Chen noticed that the original golden form of the true dragon and phoenix spirit was imprinted with shades of dark red. He could distinctly sense the power contained within the spirit of the dragon and the phoenix gradually becoming stronger.

The cultivation of the dragon and the phoenix body supposedly relied on the blood essence of many Divine Beasts. This God Sea beneath him had gathered the blood essence of countless great Divine Beasts. For the spirit of the dragon and the phoenix, this was definitely the place that catered to them the best.

“Eh?” Just like how Mu Chen was surprised by the rapid enhancement of the spirit of the dragon and the phoenix, the Three Sovereign Beasts were also aware of it. As they cast their gazes in Mu Chen’s direction, and they saw the spirit encircling him, their gazes were shaken.

“How could that be, a spiritual being containing the bloodline of the true dragon and the true phoenix?” The sharp stares from the Three Sovereign Beasts recognized at once the true spirit of the true dragon and phoenix. It was not just a manifestation of pure spiritual power, but it possessed the real bloodline of the true dragon and phoenix.

The bare-chested man morphed from the wild beast spoke in a dignified manner, “The Divine Art practiced by this youngster is truly something magical. It is even able to transform into the true dragon and phoenix protective form.”

He had known all the time that the true dragon and phoenix spirit had extremely powerful growth potential. Once it was properly groomed in the future, as it took its form, its power would not be inferior to that of the real dragon and true phoenix.

This young lad had really surprised them.

The two beauties clad in palace garments nodded and looked deeply at Mu Chen. There was a sudden vision, where perhaps in the far future, if the Great Thousand World faced the threat of invasion from the extraterritorial clans again, then the choice they made today would leave the world with a skyscraping pillar of support.

Mu Chen took no notice of the Three Sovereign Beasts’ astonishment. He gazed at the soaring spirit of the true dragon and the phoenix, and grinned. As he felt the blood surging in his body, he slowly closed his eyes. This opportunity within his hands now would be a rare chance for him, so he needed to make haste in order to break through to this land again.

He knew deep down, that when he left the Land of the Divine Beasts, he must begin to prepare for the Ancient Celestial Palace of Daluotian. As the Mandela had said, in the Ancient Celestial Palace, there was a path of evolution for the Great Solar Undying Body, and by then, perhaps he would meet people just like him who had also achieved the Great Solar Undying Body.

And those people would definitely be true evils.

To stand out from those evil forces and to allow his Sovereign Celestial Body to evolve, he must become stronger!
