When Mu Chen and Mo Ling's gazes were focused on the black stone that looked like an egg, the former was a little astonished as he cast a glance at the girl beside him. Clearly, he did not expect that both of them would have their eyes on it at the same time.

This black stone, which had traces of being burnt, was extremely ordinary. However, when Mu Chen saw it previously, he could faintly sense that there seemed to be traces of unusually hot fluctuations within this black stone.

A light flashed across Mo Ling's big eyes. She quietly grabbed Mu Chen's sleeve and said in a voice that only he could hear, "Big Brother Mu Chen, there is a phoenix flame essence inside that black stone!"

"Phoenix fire essence?"

Mu Chen's heart slightly moved. The so-called Phoenix Flame was naturally the unique flame of the Phoenix Clan. It was incomparably overbearing, and this Phoenix Flame Essence was the condensed essence of the Phoenix Flame. It was extremely beneficial to those who cultivated fire-attributed Spiritual Energy and could be called a rare treasure.

But what made him a little surprised was that he could only vaguely sense a peculiar fluctuation from the black stone, but Mo Ling could actually determine what was in the seal.

"How did you sense it?" Mu Chen couldn't help but ask.

Mo Ling blinked her watery eyes and chuckled. "That's because I was born with shocking senses. No seal can block my senses."

Mu Chen's heart trembled. He didn't expect this little girl to have such an innate ability. No wonder she was able to accurately identify the treasure sealed within the black stone.

In terms of value, this Phoenix Fire Essence far exceeded 500,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid. For those that cultivated in fire-attributed Spiritual Energy, it was a treasure that they could only wish for.

Mu Chen cast a glance at Mo Ling, whose eyes were sparkling, and his heart trembled. "You want it?"

Mo Ling seemed to be from the phoenix clan, so she possessed phoenix flames. If she could absorb this Phoenix Fire Essence, it would undoubtedly be of great benefit to her.

When Mo Ling heard his words, she immediately nodded her head. However, she was a little embarrassed as she said, "But I didn't bring that much Sovereign Spiritual Liquid with me …

But it might not be able to break the seal. "

That 30% chance of success was simply too low. It was very likely that he would fail to break the seal and turn into dust.

"No matter what, I have to try."

Mu Chen smiled.

Ever since he entered the God Beast Origin, it seemed that he had taken most of the benefits. Mo Feng had also entered the Body Refining Pagoda, which was fine. However, Nine Nether and Mo Ling had been waiting outside for a long time.

He and Jiu You naturally did not need to care about these things, but it was inevitable that he owed Mo Ling.

Since it was rare to encounter something that she needed, Mu Chen was still willing to use the 500,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid.

As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Chen no longer hesitated. With a suction force from his palm, the crystal ball that contained the black stone landed in his hand. At the same time, he swung his sleeve and a jade bottle flew towards the skinny man under the stone tree.

He sensed it for a moment before he nodded and flicked his finger.

A strand of Spiritual Energy that was connected to the crystal ball was severed by him.

The cold crystal ball fell into Mu Chen's palm. He exerted some force in his hand and the crystal ball shattered. The black stone, along with a blazing temperature, fell into his hand.

The surface of the black stone was rough, with traces of being burnt. On the surface, there was a layer of ancient runes that were formed by the seal, which looked extremely profound and cryptic.

Mu Chen held onto the black stone and closed his eyes.

He closed his eyes and his Spiritual Energy entered the black stone to examine the layer of ancient seal. This continued for a long time.

After a long while, he opened his eyes and knitted his brows.

This seal was indeed mysterious, and it was not difficult to forcefully break it. However, before this seal was detonated, it was very likely that it would self-destruct, completely destroying everything within it.

So …

If he wanted to break the seal without any damage, then he would need a special method.

"The material of this seal seems a little peculiar."

After examining it for a long while, Mu Chen finally discovered that the seal runes on the surface of the black stone were the most crucial part of the seal. Those runes leaned towards a dark-red colour and contained a peculiar pressure within them.

"It's a seal rune formed by the blood of a Super Divine Beast … No wonder it hasn't been erased after tens of thousands of years."

Mu Chen carefully pondered and realised that this pressure was something that only Super Divine Beasts possessed. Although it had been weakened by countless times, he still had the spirits of Super Divine Beasts like the True Dragon and Phoenix in his body. Thus, he was somewhat familiar with the aura of Super Divine Beasts.

"Big Brother Mu Chen, how is it?

Can you break the seal? "

Mo Ling couldn't help curiously asking from the side. In the surroundings, there were many people looking at Mu Chen as well. Clearly, they wanted to see what sort of item this sucker would get after spending 500,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid.

It was so much so that even the skinny man had directed his gaze over. He could vaguely sense that the items that he had sold seemed to have some value. He had once hardened his heart to open all of them and try his luck. If he managed to open a treasure, then it would be worth it. But he never expected that his luck would be that bad. Basically, all the seals that he had opened had nothing in the end.

Therefore, there was a shadow in his heart after his failures and he did not dare to open them again. He was afraid that he would be unlucky and fail all of them. If that's the case, then all his efforts would be in vain. Rather than that, he might as well sell them in this manner and earn some Sovereign Spiritual Liquid.

Under the gazes of Mo Ling and the rest, Mu Chen pondered for a long time, before he slowly said, "I can give it a try."

After gradually understanding the materials and structure of the seal, he came up with some methods to try. Although he still couldn't guarantee a 100% success rate, it was clearly much better than using brute force to break the seal.

As he thought about it, Mu Chen no longer hesitated. His slender fingers that held onto the black stone gently moved and Spiritual Energy gathered, forming into spiritual seals that integrated into the air.

After the Spiritual Seal integrated into the air, a small Spiritual Array instantly formed in Mu Chen's palm. It covered the black stone at the very center of the array.

This Spiritual Array wasn't an exceedingly powerful Spiritual Array. In fact, it didn't even possess any offensive capabilities. However, it possessed the ability to transform, allowing Mu Chen's Spiritual Energy to fuse into it without touching the seal, before breaking it from the inside.

However, although this Spiritual Array appeared small and exquisite, it required rather high attainments in Spiritual Arrays. Fortunately, Mu Chen was already a Spiritual Array Grandmaster. Therefore, he was able to arrange it as he pleased.

The True Dragon and Phoenix Tattoos on Mu Chen's arm slightly fluctuated at this moment, before strands of purplish-golden light quietly gushed out.

In the end, it followed the transformation of the Spiritual Array and poured into the black stone.

This ancient seal was formed using the blood of a super divine beast, so it was impossible to remove it without harming the thing within it. The only thing that could pose a threat to it was the blood of a super divine beast.

The only thing that could threaten it was the power of a Super Divine Beast.

For example, the True Dragon and Phoenix power in Mu Chen's arm.

Only a power of the same level could cause a flaw to appear in this perfect seal, allowing it to be broken in one go.

The purplish-golden light integrated into the black stone and came in contact with the traces of seal runes.

As for the purplish-golden specks of light, they silently began to corrode it.

The corrosion was extremely minute, so Mu Chen did not dare to be careless, fearing that he might waste 500,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid.

As for the surrounding people, they weren't aware of his secret actions and only thought that Mu Chen was in a daze while holding onto the black stone. Instantly, many people flung their lips in disdain. Yet another fool that was scammed …

Only Nine Nether and Mo Feng were curiously looking at Mu Chen. With their understanding of the latter, if the latter did this,

In that case, he should indeed have some confidence.

Chi Chi.

However, Mu Chen completely ignored those gazes. He could sense that as the purple-gold specks of light continued to erode the seal, a break point had finally appeared in the perfect seal runes.

It was this small gap that caused a flaw to appear in the entire seal.

"Now!"

When that opening appeared, Mu Chen's eyes instantly narrowed. Without any hesitation, the Spiritual Energy that he had fused into the black stone exploded from within.

It forcefully shattered the seal as easily as breaking dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.

Buzz!

A light abruptly burst out from the black stone in Mu Chen's palm, before the black stone exploded with a bang.

When the surrounding people saw this scene, they instantly curled their lips.

It looked like that fool had truly failed.

The skinny man shook his head and rejoiced in his heart, since he seemed to have scammed another unlucky fellow...

Buzz!

Buzz! However, just when they were shaking their heads and retracting their gazes, scarlet flames suddenly soared into the sky from Mu Chen's palm.

A terrifyingly high temperature wreaked havoc, causing even space to distort.

The sudden change had caused everyone to be stunned before everyone's gazes froze on Mu Chen's palm. Thereafter, sounds of people sucking in chilled air resounded.

That's because they saw that the black stone in Mu Chen's hand had already disappeared. Replacing it was a fist-sized scarlet crystal with magma flowing in it.

Furthermore, the magma had condensed into the shape of a phoenix!

The pupils of some of the knowledgeable people present suddenly shrunk as they looked at the fire phoenix that was formed from the magma. Immediately, a rich covetous expression surged out. Numerous shocked exclamations that were difficult to contain appeared one after another.

"It's actually the Phoenix Fire Essence?!"

Under the stone tree, the skinny man widened his mouth and his face was extremely interesting.

Looking at the Phoenix Fire Essence in his hand, Mu Chen couldn't help feeling relieved. When he broke the seal, there didn't seem to be any earth-shattering commotion. But the exquisiteness of it required extreme control of Spiritual Energy.

"Fortunately, I did not fail."

Mu Chen gently smiled as he handed the Phoenix Fire Essence in his hand to Mo Ling, whose eyes were filled with stars.

"Thank you, Big Brother Mu Chen!"

Mo Ling was extremely excited as she carefully received the Phoenix Fire Essence.

But just when Mo Ling received the Phoenix Fire Essence, a whip suddenly tore through space and coiled towards the Phoenix Fire Essence. At the same time, a streak of light flew towards Mu Chen and a prideful voice of a woman resounded.

"600,000 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid, I want this Phoenix Fire Essence."

(It should be the last chapter today.)

(To be continued.)
