Desolate Era: Hatching a Phoenix at the Beginning

Ye Chen’s eyes widened in shock.

There was indeed a lot of information in Goulong’s words.

It had mentioned before that only the Wind God had wind-type Spiritual Energy. It could assimilate and convert the Spiritual Energy of other mutated beasts, but if it was instilled or assimilated with them, the mutated beast’s Spiritual Energy would eventually converge with the Wind God’s and eventually cause the mutated beast to die tragically. It was also because of this that the Wind God had no race and could not have his own power like the other three gods at the same time. Therefore, he could only exist as a mediator.

However, the existence of the Windy Birds broke everyone’s inherent understanding. Although they appeared after the Wind God died, mutated beasts that could inherit the Spiritual Energy it left behind appeared. This seemed to be a sign of the formation of a new god.

However, there was something wrong.

!!

He glanced at Goulong and Zhurong, who had been discussing softly since just now, and couldn’t help but interrupt. “If I remember correctly, the Windy Birds are S-Rank mutated beasts, right? They clearly inherited the power of the Wind God, but they’re so weak?”

He still remembered the records of the Windy Birds in the Wasteland Remembrance. Not only were their levels not high, but they also had a gentle temperament. There had never been a record of them attacking others. Even if someone touched the island in the sky and stole their eggs to study wind-type Spirit Stones, they would only find an opportunity to steal the eggs back and never have any conflict with others.

Combining the above records, Ye Chen simply wanted to sigh. Was not liking to fight a necessary characteristic of wind-type mutated beasts?

Goulong, who was talking to Zhurong, was very dissatisfied.

“How is an S-Rank mutated beast weak?” It retorted. “If one is talented enough and can train their combat strength, the ability of an S-Rank mutated beast can also increase very quickly.”

Zhurong looked at him helplessly.

“Is that the main point?” It asked Goulong before turning to Ye Chen. “The two of us just discussed the known information and realized that this Windy Bird is very likely not a mutated beast that was born after the death of the Wind God but its direct incarnation. Moreover, it’s very likely that even its appearance is very similar.”

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows.

“Why do you think so?” He asked Zhurong, “I remember you said that you weren’t born when the Wind God died, right?”

This was information that Zhurong had taken the initiative to provide previously. Ye Chen more or less knew the corresponding era of the four gods. He knew that although Zhurong and Goulong were ancient Divine Beasts, they had never seen the existence of the Wind God.

At the moment, the only thing that could be confirmed was the Titan God. His appearance was relatively similar to that of humans. But the other four gods had lived for a long time and lived in seclusion, so even their detailed images had not been passed down.

Although Goulong had seen the Wind God Divine Realm before, the other party’s body had already completely disappeared. This also couldn’t help them make a judgment about the Wind God’s image.

Not knowing the image of God was almost equivalent to not knowing its race. Under such circumstances, making the judgment that the Windy Birds was its incarnation was really not convincing.

At this moment, the system notification sounded. Ye Chen was about to take a look when he heard Zhurong’s retort and stopped.

“Who said that we can’t determine his appearance without seeing it with our own eyes?” Zhurong said indignantly, “Can’t we just look at the direction of the Spiritual Energy?”

Goulong kept nodding beside him.

“Listen carefully. There are many things you have to learn about our various mutated beast races.” It started to put on airs in front of Ye Chen. “Let’s not talk about anything else. There are quite a number of races in the ice and fire arrays. Classify us first and remember to line yourself up.”

It clearly had something to tell Ye Chen.

“Alright. I’m a human. The Immortal Phoenix, Kun Peng, and Zhurong are considered birds. Little Purple and your original body are considered pythons. Monkey is an ape. The Godly Sea Steadying Needle and Little White are dragons. I’m done.” Ye Chen sorted them according to his memories and replied to Goulong.

“Actually, Zhurong and I don’t have to be counted in… You’ve never seen our original bodies here.” Goulong added, “You’ve used the Titan’s Eye before. Now, try to remember what the direction of our Spiritual Energy is. The direction of the Spiritual Energy between our kind should have many similarities, like that of snakes and dragons. Just now, I drew the direction of the Spiritual Energy in the wind vein and only realized after Zhurong’s reminder that this is really similar to the meridians of the Wind Birds.”

“Wait for me.” Ye Chen quickly opened the system and started looking.

The system had a relatively important photo album function that could record images that the system determined to be valid information. The information Ye Chen copied in the main world was kept like this before being read. f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂

When he activated the Titan’s Eye, the direction of the Spiritual Energy of the mutated beasts that he saw clearly was also preserved in the photo album. Moreover, after the system notification sounded, the red dot appeared in the system photo album.

After Ye Chen opened the photo album, the first thing that popped up was a new picture. That wasn’t a scene he had seen before. It was obvious that the Titan God in the system had thrown it in.

It was an image of a huge silver bird soaring in the air. Under the huge sun, the feathers at the tip of its wings appeared translucent in the sunlight. It could be said to be sparkling. On its body, some silver threads were distributed. They should be the direction of Spiritual Energy.

The sun in this image was clearly bigger than what Ye Chen had seen before. In addition, there were many Immortal Phoenixes in the background. He could basically confirm that it was the Sun Celestial Heavens before it rose. This was an image before the mutated beast war. It was most likely extracted from his memories by the Titan God.

Ye Chen opened the photo introduction. As expected, it was labeled as “Wind God Image.”

“It’s really a bird…” he muttered to himself.

The Titan God no longer spoke to Ye Chen through the system notification. It was probably because its mental energy was insufficient, but the information it provided was still very valuable.

Ye Chen looked at the precious image of the Wind God in satisfaction. What he saw made him realize something incredible.

His gaze gathered on the group of Immortal Phoenixes in the background. Among them, many of them were slightly different in terms of size and appearance. The largest ones had some patterns that Ye Chen had never seen before on their golden long tail feathers and crowns.

When the Immortal Phoenix reached adulthood, patterns would appear on its body and it would still maintain them when it was in its prime. If it was any weaker, the patterns would decrease. Ye Chen had indeed heard of this before. He had even seen it once in the memories of the Immortal Phoenix race. However, he did not have a deep impression of it. The ones in this image were relatively clear.

However, more importantly, the same pattern also appeared on the Wind God’s feather.
