nChapter 89: Entering the Underground of the Pavilion and

nDIscovering a New Altar

nTranslator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

nYe Chen jumped off the Immortal Phoenix’s back and landed on the bottom

nfloor of the Pavilion. He started observing carefully.

nThe ground floor of the Pavilion was made up of an entire piece of Spirit Stone.

nAlthough it had been burnt black, it didn’t crack. It still emitted a strong

nSpiritual Energy. Faint patterns could even be seen. It was obvious that this

nwas the center of the Mute Array in the entire courtyard.

nYe Chen was a little glad. If he hadn’t been able to communicate with the Divine

nBeast around him through telepathy, they would have caused more trouble in

nthe Mute Array.

n“Master, I can be sure that the aura of that Mystic Realm treasures is coming

nfrom below.” The Immortal Phoenix followed Ye Chen around the bottom floor

nand said in certainty.

nThe Kun Peng nodded as well. It was the only mutated beast here that had been

nto a Mystic Realm. With its affirmation, Ye Chen was also relieved.

n“We have to think of a way to go down. There are secret books and cultivation

narts hidden here. It’s impossible that there are no other exits. We have to look

nfor them.” Ye Chen thought for a moment and lowered his head to say to the

nKun Peng, which was on his shoulder, “Kun Peng, can you clean up the bottom

nfloor?

nAfter hearing this, the Kun Peng’s eyes widened.

n“Master, you aren’t asking me to swallow this pile of trash, are you?” It cried

nout strangely. “The Devouring skill can’t be used like this!”

nWhen the other mutated beasts heard this, they immediately laughed together.

nHow could Monkey, who always argued with the Kun Peng, let go of this

nopportunity? It immediately started teasing the Kun Peng, angering the Kun

nPeng to the point that it wanted to pull the hair on its head. In an instant, the

ntwo Divine Beasts started fooling around on Ye Chen’s body.

n“Stop fooling around.” Ye Chen was also amused. He originally wanted to clean

nthe black ashes on the floor so that he could see the patterns on it. He didn’t

nexpect that the meaning of his words would be twisted. “You idiot, I want you

nto release some water vapor so that I can make sure if there are any traps on

nthe floor. Who asked you to eat trash?

nPerhaps because he had been living with the Divine Beasts, Ye Chen felt that

nthese fellows became less and less like mutated beasts. Instead, they were like

na bunch of playful children who wouldn’t do things seriously unless it was a

nserious matter.

nHe didn’t find this troublesome. It made him happy instead if the atmosphere

naround him was a bit more lively.

nAfter Ye Chen explained, the Kun Peng put on an expression of realization and

nreleased water vapor in embarrassment.

nSoon, some water droplets appeared on the floor of the Pavilion and they

ngathered into a shallow stream. The black ashes from the Great Sun True Fire

nwere peeled off from the Spirit Stones by the Spiritual Energy in the water and

nran to both sides. The water was soon evaporated by the heat emitted by the

nImmortal Phoenix at the edge of the wall.

nA huge totem was exposed on the ground, like a cage with several large snakes.

nLooking carefully, the eyes of the large snake in the middle were two smal

npits, lookinglike a pair of calm blind eyes.

nAt this moment, a system notification appeared.

nReminder: Drop the blood of an advanced water-type mutated beast into the

neyes of the Mutated Beast Totem to open the underground palace.

n(Hidden prompt message: There are a lot of snake-type mutated beasts in the

nunderground palace. Please choose the mutated beast for opening the

nunderground palace carefully.)

n“It’s so convenient to see the hidden hints.” Ye Chen walked on top of the totem

nand summoned Little Purple from his arms. “Little Purple, I have to borrow

ntwo drops of your blood to open the door. There will be snake-type mutated

nbeasts down there. Your blood is more useful.

nLittle Purple nodded obediently and touched the tip of its tail on the horn on its

nhead. Blood slowly dripped down. Ye Chen held Little Purple above the totem as

nblood dropped into the pits and the large snake’s eyes were dyed red.

nIn an instant, the totem emitted a faint purple light.

nAs the purple light appeared, the Spirit Stones under Ye Chen’s feet shook

nslightly. Then, the entire floor started to go down.

nThe Li family had clearly spent a lot of money on the security of the

nunderground palace. The floor with the totem had fallen by five to six meters

nand only revealed four walls made of large pieces of blue and white Spirit

nStones. Going further down, an entrance to a dark tunnel appeared on one of

nthe stone walls.

nThese rich people really hide their treasures wel.”Ye Chen stepped into the

ntunnel and exclaimed.

nHowever, right at this moment, something unexpected happened. The moment

nhe stepped into the tunnel, the ground outside quickly rose and locked him

nand the five mutated beasts in the tunnel, sending them into darkness.

n“Oh no! Master, have we fallen into a trap?

n“Tl light the fire now! Ouch, Monkey, don’t push me!”

n“If anyone dares to lock us up, T’l tear this place down and go out to smash

nthem!

nThe beasts immediately became noisy.

n“Stop arguing” Ye Chen took out the Snow Soul Pearl from his bag

nspeechlessly. “You’re not allowed to burn the place or tear down the walls. We

nstill have to look for the treasures.

nUnder the illumination of the Snow sSoul Pearl, Ye Chen walked towards the end

nof the tunnel and finally stopped in front of a door.

nIt was a door with a totem painted on it, but it was somewhat different from

nthe one on the ground before. The few large snakes in the cage merged into one

nwith two sharp horns and a third eye appeared on its head.

n“Master, look! That’s Little Purple on the totem!” Monkey shouted in surprise.

nLittle Purple also stuck its head out of Ye Chen’s arms and stared at the totem

non the wall. After a while, it said, “No, there are no eyes on the top of my head.”

n“This is indeed not Little Purple.” Ye Chen replied in a deep voice. “This is the

nTitan Python with awakened bloodlines”

n“Theyre from the same race as Little Purple’s?” Monkey looked at Ye Chen with

neyes filled with admiration. “Tve never seen them before! Master, how did you

nknow?

nYe Chen didn’t reply. He was a little shocked when he saw another hint appear

nin front of the door.

nHidden prompt message: Let an advanced mutated beast of the Python Race

nresonate with the Mutated Beast Totem to open the Python Race’s altar. The

nawakening of bloodline requires sacrifices of the corresponding race.

nPython Race’s altar, bloodline awakening. Could this be the same as the

nAncient Altar, a place where humans used to create Divine Beasts?

nAs artificial Divine Beasts, Little Purple and Monkey didn’t inherit the

ncultivation methods from their bloodlines, so they were inferior to the

nImmortal Phoenix and the Kun Peng in terms of cultivation. If Little Purple

ncould awaken its bloodline through the altar, that meant that Monkey might be

nable to do the same.

nIf the Ancient Altar was the place to create Divine Beasts, then the altar here

nwould be the place for bloodline purification to be used together.

nHumans at that time developed various altars, but they had never been able to

nproduce Divine Beasts in bulk. It was probably because it was too difficult to

ncreate a qualified Divine Beast Egg. In addition, the Primitive Burial Ground

nwhere the Ancient Altar was located was sealed. So, such an altar lost its

nmeaning as well.

nHowever, this meant a lot to Ye Chen.

nIf he could succeed this time, he would have to put the search for the various

naltars on the agenda.

n“Little Purple, release your power and try to resonate with this door.” Ye Chen

ncouldn’t help but become serious. “There might be something that can make

nyou a real Titan Python behind this door.”

nHe saw that Little Purple’s eyes also brightened.
