Rustle!
The scarlet ocean filled this vast space as boundless Spiritual Aura rose endlessly, condensing into a Spiritual Fog. As the Spiritual Fog grew denser, it turned into Spiritual Clouds. Thereafter, a Spiritual Rain fell from the sky, causing ripples to form on the surface of the ocean.
Although the ocean here was formed from the blood essences of countless top-tiered Divine Beasts, there wasn't any stench of blood. The purity of the Spiritual Energy had far exceeded any region that Mu Chen had seen in the past.
According to his estimations, even if several top-tiered Spiritual Convergence Arrays were gathered together, they still wouldn't be able to gather such boundless Spiritual Energy.
At this moment, in another region where the spiritual rain fell, Mu Chen sat on the surface of the ocean, allowing the cold spiritual rain to fall on his body. A golden light surged on the surface of his body, greedily absorbing the spiritual rain that fell on his body into his body. After refining and devouring it into his Sovereign Sea, the Spiritual Energy in his body grew even more robust.
Rustle!
The ocean behind him rippled as a whale-like Divine Beast soared into the sky and dived down, piercing through Mu Chen's body and fell back into the ocean.
Mu Chen's body did not move as he allowed those illusory Divine Beasts to pass through him. His eyes were tightly shut and there weren't any ripples on his face.
Unknowingly, he had already been cultivating on this ocean for a month. However, he did not impatiently absorb the Spiritual Energy here in an attempt to make a breakthrough.
Not long ago, he had borrowed the power of the Nine Revolution Azure Lotus to break through to the Seventh Grade Sovereign Realm. If he wanted to make another breakthrough in such a short period of time, he might be able to achieve it with the miraculousness of this place. But if that's the case, it might shake the foundation of Mu Chen's cultivation, which might leave some repercussions in the future.
Mu Chen wasn't a fool who would be blinded by the efficiency in front of him. Therefore, he rationally suppressed the sense of urgency that was chasing after the most efficient breakthrough.
He chose to quietly cultivate, allowing the Spiritual Energy in his body to circulate as he gradually absorbed the Spiritual Energy in the surroundings.
What he needed was an overflowing water that could be filled to the brim.
This kind of breakthrough was slow.
However, his footsteps were the most solid. Furthermore, with the help of the changes in the Time Laws of this space, what Mu Chen lacked the least was time.
Therefore, he was not in a hurry to complete it.
Instead, he chose the stupidest and slowest method.
But even the three Beast Sovereigns inwardly nodded their heads at his choice. If an ordinary person were to enter such a treasured cultivation ground, they would probably be smashed by it. How would they know what restraint was? They would definitely devour as much energy as they could.
But that kind of method was like drinking poison to quench one's thirst. In the long run, it could only be described as short-sighted and stupid.
It was Mu Chen's way.
Although the efficiency was slow, it was able to ensure that he would be able to walk even further on the path of cultivation in the future.
However, although Mu Chen did not insist on cultivating his Spiritual Energy for the past month, it could not be said that he did not have any harvest. At the very least, he had made considerable progress in other aspects of his cultivation.
On the sea.
Mu Chen quietly sat down as he slowly opened his eyes. Shortly after, he raised his hand, causing the ocean before him to violently ripple.
In the next instant, the ocean surface was torn apart and two silhouettes flew out.
The two silhouettes revolved around Mu Chen with a golden lustre blossoming around him. It was the True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits.
But at this moment, they had undergone a great change.
There was a great change. Their originally illusory bodies had gradually become more corporeal after devouring the Divine Beast's Essence Blood for a month. Although they were still far from being fully formed, they were much more realistic than before.
Moreover, their originally golden bodies were gradually changing at this moment. They seemed to be faintly dark gold in color, and they looked even more sturdy and tyrannical.
The True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits revolved around Mu Chen as they constantly emanated powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuations.
Mu Chen looked at the True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits with astonishment in his eyes. That's because the growth of the True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits in just a month was too powerful.
Right now, the True Dragon's Spirits could already leave Mu Chen's body due to the fact that their Spiritual Energy was sufficiently powerful. It was so much so that they could fight freely within a certain range.
According to Mu Chen's speculations, if the True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits could leave their bodies, they could confront a pinnacle level Seventh Grade Sovereign, even without him making a move.
It was equivalent to having a powerful helper with him. Furthermore, that helper also possessed great potential. Mu Chen did not doubt that when the True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits fully matured, the power they possessed would be something that even Earth Sovereigns would be fearful of.
Speaking from a certain degree, the True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits were probably the most powerful aspect of the Dragon-Phoenix Sutra.
Naturally, there was still a long way to go and Mu Chen did not hope to reach the heavens in a single step. Right now, he only had to nurture the True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits well, and one day, they would definitely become a powerful helper for him.
But right now?
Mu Chen cast a glance at the True Dragon and Phoenix Spirits and lightly smiled. Right now, it's best for him to take good care of them as they grow.
As he thought about it, Mu Chen no longer pondered about it and looked at an island that was floating on the ocean of blood. On it, Jiu You was seated with blazing flames blazing on her body.
Those were the Undying Flames. In the past, Jiu You's Undying Flames were dark purple in colour. But right now, that colour was gradually fading away, as if it was evolving towards the crystallised flames of the Undying Bird.
Mu Chen knew that it must be due to the guidance of the Undying Bird Beast Sovereign. As the Undying Bird, she naturally knew the evolution path of the Undying Bird. Thus, she could give Jiu You precious guidance, allowing her to take fewer detours on the path of evolution, allowing her evolution to be more perfect.
With the guidance of the Undying Bird Beast Sovereign, Mu Chen could already foresee that after this secluded cultivation, Jiu You's strength would definitely soar.
At that time, she might even surpass him, who had bitterly caught up to her.
"It's been almost three years since I came out of Hokuang Reiwon."
He suddenly raised his head and let out a long breath. In the past few years, he had gradually matured from an inexperienced youth to one of the ten Kings of the Great Heaven Domain. Furthermore, after he returned from secluded cultivation, he felt that it was time for another person to be added to the Three Emperors of the Great Heaven Domain.
The tempering over the years had caused the youth's immaturity to fade away. Other than rescuing his mother, all of his efforts were for the promise he had made to that young lady back in the Spiritual Academy.
The promise of a supreme expert.
"Luo Li, how are you?"
Mu Chen looked at the sky. As the spiritual mist rose, a peerless beauty with silvery hair, an exquisite face, and a pair of crystal-clear eyes could be vaguely seen, evoking the longing in the depths of Mu Chen's heart.
Mu Chen pursed his lips and his face gradually turned resolute. Although it was tough for him in the past few years, he knew that Luo Li, who was in the Luo God Clan, wouldn't have it easy either. That girl had a heart that was even more stubborn than him beneath her cold appearance.
She had to support the Luo God Clan, which was a huge force that far exceeded the Great Heaven Domain. Perhaps at this moment, she was shouldering it with her soft shoulders.
"Luo Li, wait for me. When I come before you again, it will be the time for me to fulfil my promise."
Clenching his fists, Mu Chen no longer hesitated and suppressed the longing in his heart. He gradually closed his eyes and the Spiritual Energy undulations around him gradually formed into a vortex that endlessly absorbed the boundless Spiritual Energy between the heavens and earth.
For a long time to come, he would enter a deep state of cultivation.
When Mu Chen and Jiu You started to cultivate, time swiftly passed.
Roughly half a month after Mu Chen and the rest entered the Divine Sea, the training in the Divine Beast Origin had come to an end. After the various teams obtained all sorts of opportunities, they gradually retreated and returned to their own clans.
When the Divine Beast Origin came to an end, practically everyone knew about the shocking battle in the God's Cemetery, and at the same time, they also knew of Mu Chen's name.
Zong Teng of the Sky Roc Clan had encountered Zong Qingfeng of the Roc Clan. But before he could ask if the other party had taught Mu Chen a lesson, the latter had told him in a profound tone to not provoke Mu Chen in the future, or he would suffer the consequences of his own actions.
Zong Teng was covered in cold sweat from Zong Qingfeng's tone, especially after knowing that Mu Chen had defeated Bai Ming of the Ice Phoenix Clan. In the end, he had completely lost his voice and left the Divine Beast Origin with his team. He no longer dared to have any thoughts of dealing with Mu Chen. Such a figure would definitely not be an ordinary person in the future, and it would be a loss if he offended him.
The other teams that had fought with Mu Chen's team were also inwardly fearful as they left with their tails between their legs.
Unknowingly, the name Mu Chen had spread amongst the younger generations of the various Divine Beast Clans.
It was also under this situation that Mo Feng and Mo Ling had left the Divine Beast Origin and returned to the Jiu You Sparrow Clan. When they returned, they were immediately summoned by the Patriarch and Elders of the clan to inquire about their harvest in the Divine Beast Origin.
