The vast continent was in a tattered state and the entire heavens and earth was filled with a wasteland aura. But even if it was tattered to such an extent, the Divine Beast Origin still emanated a unique pressure that made everyone that came here revere the ancient times.
Whoosh!
Whizzing sounds of wind resounded in the boundless horizon as four streaks of light flew over from the distance, bringing along ear-piercing sonic booms as they swiftly flew towards the distance.
Those four silhouettes were naturally Mu Chen, Jiu You, and the others who had set their sights on the Primordial Body Refining Pagoda after arriving in the Divine Beast Origin.
They had already travelled for nearly half a day, and along the way, they had encountered some other Spiritual Beast Clans. However, they were all fearful of each other, so there wasn't any conflict.
After all, no one wanted to waste their energy before seeing any treasures. After all, those clans that could come to the Divine Beast Origin weren't ordinary, so they more or less had some capital. So it wasn't worth it to provoke them for no reason.
It was precisely because of this that Mu Chen and the rest felt rather comfortable during their journey.
"According to our current location, we should still be a day away from the nearest Primordial Body Refining Pagoda."
As they flew, Jiu You held onto a beast bone compass. There were lights on the compass that vaguely formed a map. At the centre of the map, there was a pagoda rune, which should be the destination of Mu Chen and the rest.
Mu Chen nodded his head.
He wasn't impatient, but had closed his eyes as they travelled.
With a single thought, the Spiritual Energy between the heavens and earth was endlessly absorbed into his body.
However.
As the Spiritual Energy of the Heavens and Earth was rapidly absorbed by Mu Chen, he could sense a strand of peculiar energy being emitted from within, before fusing into his flesh and blood. At that instant, Mu Chen could clearly sense that the blood in his body seemed to have become more lively.
The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy of the Divine Beast Origin actually contained a trace of power that could temper the physical body. Mu Chen traced back to the source.
He could sense that the strand of energy was the Great Desolation Aura that filled this world.
"It's no wonder why the Divine Beast Origin was so important in the Divine Beast Continent back then. Cultivating here is greatly beneficial to the Spiritual Beasts and Divine Beasts."
Mu Chen praised inwardly. Although the improvement of his physical body after half a day's absorption was not as good as when he absorbed the Blood Spirit Mud Pill previously, it was still not enough.
However, this was an endless supply, and there was no need for him to search for Blood Spirit Paste. Over time, that kind of improvement would occur.
It was quite terrifying.
"Looks like the Divine Beast Origin is truly beneficial to the cultivation of the physical body."
Sensing the boiling blood in his body, a smear of a smile appeared on Mu Chen's face. He was about to arrive at the Primordial Body Refining Pagoda.
At the same time, he was filled with even more expectations.
As long as his Dragon-Phoenix Physique could break through to the second level, even if he only relied on his physical body.
He could confront a Seventh Grade Sovereign in this trip to the Divine Beast Origin!
In this trip to the Divine Beast Origin, he not only had to help Jiu You obtain the Primordial Undying Bird's Divine Blood, he also had to make his strength soar.
Furthermore, he had to make his strength grow by leaps and bounds. Only then would he be qualified to compete for the evolution method of the Great Solar Undying Body when the Ancient Haven Palace appeared!
For the next day, Mu Chen's group of four did not rest. Under their full speed, they had finally arrived at the region of the Primordial Body Refining Pagoda.
On a lone peak, Mu Chen's group of four appeared in a flash. The moment they appeared, they cast their gazes towards the distance and saw a towering city that spanned over a myriad miles quietly standing in the middle of the mountain range.
Although the city had already been reduced to ruins, one could still see how majestic it once was. In the Primordial Era, this city must have been a majestic city in the Divine Beast Origin.
"This is the Great Desolate City. In the Primordial Era, it was a top-tiered force in the Divine Beast Origin, and there is a Primordial Body Refining Pagoda left behind in this city." Jiu You pointed at the ancient ruins as she spoke.
Nodding his head, Mu Chen squinted his eyes as he looked at this region. "Looks like the Primordial Body Refining Pagoda is pretty attractive."
In his perception, he could sense that there were powerful auras constantly whistling over from the distant horizon. Clearly, the target of those people was the Primordial Body Refining Pagoda.
Aside from those auras that were swiftly making their way over, Mu Chen looked at the ruins and knitted his brows. There were quite a few Spiritual Energy fluctuations that had appeared. Evidently, someone had already arrived here before them.
"Mhm?"
Just when Mu Chen sensed the Spiritual Energy fluctuations in the massive city, his expression suddenly changed and he raised his head to look in a direction. There were several streaks of light that streaked across the horizon. Furthermore, when those streaks of light approached them, they seemed to have sensed their existence. Immediately, whizzing sounds of wind resounded and they had directly appeared above them.
"Haha, I was wondering who it was. So it's Jiu You. It's been so many years, and I had thought that you had failed your evolution." When those streaks of light appeared, a woman's laughter resounded. Although her voice was pleasing to the ears, her words were extremely harsh.
When Jiu You heard that voice, her face instantly sank and she raised her head with a ridiculing smile on her face. "Liu Qing, looks like you still can't get over your loss to me back then."
Mu Chen had also raised his head and saw four silhouettes appearing in the sky before them. Amongst the four silhouettes, there was a green-clothed woman. She had a slender figure with a curvaceous figure. Her brows were exquisite, making her look a little bewitching. But at this moment, due to Jiu You's previous counterattack, a cold light flashed in her eyes.
Mu Chen frowned his brows as he looked at this group of people. He clearly didn't know where they came from. But from the looks of it, Jiu You seemed to have a deep relationship with this green-clothed woman, Liu Qing.
"Big brother Mu Chen, they're from the Sky Roc Clan. In the past, the Sky Roc Clan would send their younger generation to compete with our Jiu You Sparrow Clan, and Liu Qing was defeated by big sister Jiu You. But I never thought that she would be so narrow-minded that she still remembers it even now."
While Mu Chen was feeling puzzled, Mo Ling whispered. From her tone, it was clear that she didn't have a good impression of Liu Qing.
"Sky Roc Clan?"
Mu Chen was briefly stunned before he nodded his head. It was a Spiritual Beast Clan that wasn't any inferior to the Jiu You Sparrow Clan. This clan also had a history, and it was said that they possessed the bloodline of the Super Divine Beast, the Golden-Winged Great Roc. If they could completely awaken it, they would also possess great potential.
"I never thought that after not seeing you for so long, Jiu You's mouth is getting more formidable."
As Mu Chen and Mo Ling spoke, Liu Qing sneered once again, before she suddenly shifted her gaze towards Mu Chen and raised her brows. "I have also heard some news that you have formed a Bloodlink Bond with a human. It must be him, right?"
She looked at Mu Chen with arrogance and scrutiny in her eyes, along with a smear of faint disdain.
"You dare to bring someone with the strength of a Sixth Grade Sovereign to the Divine Beast Origin? Looks like you have placed great importance on him. But you have to be careful. If he accidentally dies in the Divine Beast Origin, I'm afraid that you, Jiu You, will have to be buried along with him."
When Mu Chen heard her words, he knitted his brows as a cold light flashed in his eyes. However, he only cast an indifferent glance at Liu Qing and did not lose his composure because of her words. But in his heart, he felt disgusted with her. If there's an opportunity, he would definitely teach her a lesson.
When Liu Qing saw Mu Chen's indifferent expression, a smear of astonishment flashed in her eyes. She must have thought that the shrewdness displayed by the latter was different from his age.
"Don't worry about it. If you feel that the previous lesson wasn't enough, I can play with you anytime." Jiu You coldly said.
"Really?"
When Liu Qing heard his words, the corner of her lips rose, before she slightly turned her head and casually smiled towards a clansman beside her. "Big Brother Zong Teng should have already reached the Body Refining Pagoda, right?"
"Haha, with Big Brother Zong Teng's speed, who amongst the Seventh Grade Sovereigns can match up to him?" That expert of the Sky Roc Clan smiled as he looked at Mu Chen's party with a smile-yet-not-a-smile expression.
"Zong Teng?"
When Jiu You heard that name, he couldn't help squinting his eyes with fear in his eyes.
When Mu Chen saw this scene, he couldn't help feeling a little puzzled and transmitted his voice to Mo Ling, "Who is that Zong Teng?"
Mo Ling had also knitted her brows and her face was a little unsightly. "That Zong Teng is the one with the most outstanding talent amongst the younger generations of the Sky Roc Clan. It's said that he has the highest chance of awakening the Golden-Winged Great Roc's bloodline. That person is extremely powerful and he has once fought with the geniuses of the Phoenix Clan, but he wasn't at a disadvantage. Right now, he can be considered as someone with great fame amongst the younger generations of the Spiritual Beast Clan."
Hearing her words, only then did Mu Chen understand. No wonder Liu Qing was so fearless. So it turned out that she was relying on the backing of such a figure.
Seeing Nine Nether's silence, Liu Qing couldn't help smiling in a prideful manner. However, she did not speak any further and chuckled, "Looks like your objective is the Body Refining Pagoda. That's good, I will get Big Brother Zong Teng to take care of you guys at that time."
The word 'take care' was heavily emphasized, and the meaning behind it was clearly understood by everyone present.
"How noisy."
Mu Chen raised his eyelids as he faintly said.
Liu Qing was stunned and her face turned green from Mu Chen's words. Shortly after, she gnashed her teeth and glared at Mu Chen before sneering, "I hope that you guys can still smile when you see my Big Brother Zong Teng later!"
When she finished, she couldn't be bothered to stay any longer. She turned into a streak of light and swiftly streaked across the horizon, heading towards the ruined city.
Looking at their silhouettes, Mu Chen squinted his eyes.
As for Zong Teng, he hoped that this person wouldn't interfere with his opportunity to challenge the pagoda. Otherwise, he wouldn't show the slightest bit of mercy no matter which clan he was from!
