Desolate Era: Hatching a Phoenix at the Beginning

Chapter 186: Ye Chen’s Bloodline Awakening Plan

The problem now was that among all the people and mutated beasts present, only Little Purple had the Titan’s Eye with high perception. Therefore, only it could see and enter the mental world of the Ice Fire Beetle.

Ye Chen could only rely on Little Purple to find that unknown treasure.

The reason why he could enter the mental world in Little Purple’s stomach was that he had already been considered a part of Little Purple’s body and didn’t have the ability to explore independently.

Therefore, the thing that Ye Chen could rely on the most, the system, lost its use.

Ye Chen had always been helped by the system. There were even many considerate system notifications appearing in the ice and fire arrays. However, as time passed, he also discovered the system’s shortcomings.

It wasn’t something that Ye Chen saw or touched in person. Even if it was close, the system would still pretend to be mute.

Therefore, it only made a warning of traps in the two secret chambers in the array. It was the same in the mental world. Even if Ye Chen had already analyzed the fragments of the Spirit Pools of the two ancient Divine Beasts in the two secret chambers in the mental world through the white fog that Little Purple breathed in, the system would still not give a notification about this obvious situation.

If Ye Chen could see the scene in the mental world with his own eyes, he would be able to receive system notifications like before and find the location of the secret treasure. Even if it was hidden in the illusionary fog of the Deep Sea Dragons, it wouldn’t be a problem.

However, there was no “if” in reality. Ye Chen didn’t have the Titan’s Eye.

After he told the Divine Beasts about his current distress, the reply he received was a question from the leader of the Feather Dragons.

“Mr. Ye, wasn’t your constitution said to be unique to the Titan Continent by the Ancient Divine Beasts? Since you’re very likely to be a descendant of the humans on the disappeared Titan Continent, can you also create the Titan’s Eye?” It asked.

“That’s easy to say.” Ye Chen scoffed. “Little Purple awakened its bloodline when it opened the Titan’s Eye. Monkey also had to purify its Spiritual Energy to form the Titan Energy Stone. They have a fixed race and type of Spiritual Energy that can be used as the direction of purification. What about me? How would I know what kind of human can open the Titan’s Eye? There aren’t even any records of it!”

When Zhurong and Goulong talked to Ye Chen about the Titan Continent, they did not mention that there were humans among the original races. The information they gave was more like that after the appearance of humans, the Titan God brought a large number of humans and the entire Titan Continent to another world. They never mentioned that there were humans who also obtained the unique abilities of the Titan Race.

It would have been fine if they could obtain information from the outside, but they were all in an isolated array.

For a moment, a helpless atmosphere spread.

“Master, why don’t we wake Senior Zhurong up and ask?” Monkey suggested.

“Forget it, it’s useless to wake it up.” Ye Chen shook his head. “Although the Zhurong’s consciousness we saw in the Ice Fire Beetle’s mental world is full of nonsense, it can also extract all the memories from Zhurong’s main body. The only difference is the memories after it was separated from its main body… If it doesn’t know, don’t expect the one still in the fire array to know more.”

“Then let Little Purple bring me to the mental world again? If we’re careful, we should be able to find that dangerous treasure safely.” This was the suggestion of the Godly Sea Steadying Needle. As it was too risky, Ye Chen rejected it.

Among the Divine Beasts, only the Kun Peng suggested a more feasible plan after pondering for a long time.

“Master, I think we still have to start with you. After all, if you don’t see it with your own eyes, it won’t have any effect. Then, there are only two ways left.” It suggested, “Either you try to see if there are any cultivation art tablets that specifically increase the perceiving ability and learn it quickly in a day’s time, or you can activate the Titan’s Eye. After all, you already have some characteristics of the Titan God. The possibility of you having the Titan’s Eye is really high.”

“How would our cultivation art tablet have any perceiving-type cultivation art that can be completed in a day?” Ye Chen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when he heard that. “As for the Titan’s Eye, I can’t activate it even if I want to.”

“I have an idea about the awakening of the Titan’s Eye. You can give it a try,” the Kun Peng said sincerely. “This has something to do with my race… Master, you know that my race, the Divine Rocs, was a new race born from Spiritual Energy during the mutated beast war, right?”

Ye Chen nodded.

The Divine Rocs was said to be a hybrid of the Immortal Phoenixes and the Deep Sea Giant Kun Pengs. In fact, in the early stages of its birth, it was a mutated beast race that was born from the earth. The earliest Divine Rocs weren’t given birth by any mutated beast but were born from the collision and fusion of the two types of Spiritual Energy in the war. Only after the war did the two races discover this new race. After that, the relationship between the two races became slightly better. Only then did a real mutated beast with mixed blood appear and also join the Divine Rocs.

Ye Chen had even seen this history with his own eyes when the Immortal Phoenix and the Kun Peng advanced, let alone reading information about it.

“After my strength gradually increased, I would regain some racial memories, including the information about the first Divine Roc.” The Kun Peng continued, “I recovered a little more two days ago. Only then did I know that the first group of Divine Rocs born from Spiritual Energy actually didn’t have any Innate Mystic Abilities… Master, you probably don’t know about this, right?”

Ye Chen really didn’t know.

“Don’t keep me in suspense. Tell me in detail.” He urged the Kun Peng.

“Actually, it’s because those seniors were formed from Spiritual Energy, so they didn’t inherit the Innate Mystic Abilities inherited from their bloodlines. It’s just like how if we only absorb Spiritual Energy to increase our combat strength but don’t learn cultivation arts, we might lose to those with lower combat strength than us in a fight.” The Kun Peng explained, “It wasn’t until the appearance of the mixed-blood Divine Rocs that the first seniors understood that their race could have Innate Mystic Abilities.”

“But can’t Innate Mystic Abilities be learnt later on? Little Purple and Master even learned the Innate Mystic Abilities of other races, right?” The Godly Sea Steadying Needle interrupted and asked, “They couldn’t learn them even after such a long time?”

“They can learn it, but their descendants can’t. As long as they are descendants of the race, they won’t have any Innate Mystic Abilities at all. Instead, when they marry other races, their descendants will have the Mystic Abilities of other races.” The Kun Peng explained, “Therefore, in order to change their current situation, they found a new generation and communicated with them with their Spirit Blood. In other words, they let a small amount of blood mixed with Spiritual Energy flow through their bodies and stimulate the power of their bloodline.”

Then, it looked at Little Purple.

“With their bloodline and Spiritual Energy pure, those seniors were indeed stimulated by the power of their bloodline. From then on, without any Innate Mystic Abilities, they disappeared from the Divine Rocs.”
