The vast continent was fragmented, and the whole of heaven and earth was permeated with an atmosphere reminiscent of ruins. However, even shattered to such an extent, the Land of the Divine Beasts still emitted a unique sense of oppression so that all who came there were in awe of that primordial period.

Whoosh!

The sound of something whistling through the wind rang over the boundless horizon, and four rainbows of light swept in from afar. Then, with the harsh sound of an explosion, the rainbows flew swiftly into the distance.

Naturally, these four figures were Mu Chen, Nine Nether, and the siblings who had targeted the Primordial Body-refining Tower after arriving in the Land of Divine Beasts.

They had been hurrying for nearly half a day, and in the course of the journey, they had met some other species of spiritual beasts. They were wary of each other, but did not have any disputes.

After all, nobody wanted to spend their energy in vain before they saw any treasures. Many races that could come to the Land of Divine Beasts were not pushovers. They more or less had some capability, so no one wanted to risk unnecessary provocation.

Because of this, they were quite comfortable as they hurried forward.

In the middle of the flight, Nine Nether held a compass made of animal bones, and there was a light spot on the compass. It seemed that a blurry map could be seen. In the middle of the map, there was a tattoo of a tower, presumably their destination. “From our location, we should be one day away from the nearest Primordial Body-refining Tower.”

Mu Chen nodded and did not seem to appear impatient. Instead, he closed his eyes while they hurried. As he focused, he absorbed a steady stream of spiritual energy from the heavens and earth.

As he did this, he was able to perceive a strange force that integrated into his flesh and blood, and in that moment, Mu Chen clearly felt that his own blood and energy seemed to become more active.

In the spiritual power of this Land of the Divine Beasts, there was a trace of power that could strengthen the physique. Mu Chen tried to trace it back to the root, as he perceived that the strength was the aura of desolation.

No wonder the Land of the Divine Beasts was so significant in the Divine Beasts Continent. It would be of great benefit to these spiritual and divine beasts to cultivate here.

Mu Chen gave silent praise, even though his body’s current refinement was not as good as it had been with the previous absorption of a Blood Spirit Soil pill. After all, this was endless, and now there was no need to search for Blood Spirit Soil. After a period of time, the effects would be rather immense.

It seems that the Land of the Divine Beasts is of great benefit to the cultivation of the physique.

Feeling signs of the blood boiling in his body, a smile surfaced on Mu Chen’s face. He looked forward to the Primordial Body-refining Tower they were about to see.

As long as his Dragon-Phoenix Body could break through to the second level, even if he only relied on the strength of his body, he would be strong enough to clash with a Seventh Grade Sovereign!

The journey to the Land of the Divine Beasts was not only to help Nine Nether obtain the Primordial Undying Bird’s divine blood, but to also improve his own capability. Only then, when the Ancient Celestial Palace appeared, would he have the right to compete for the evolution technique of the Great Solar Undying Body.

Over the next day, the four were on the move at full speed and arrived in the area where the Primordial Body-refining Tower was located.

The four appeared in a flash above a lone peak, and when they appeared, their gazes were cast into the distance where between the mountains, a great city of thousands of miles silently stood.

Although the city had long been reduced to ruins, one still could imagine the once majestic city in those ancient times as it must have been. After all, it had been one of the capital cities in the Land of the Divine Beasts.

Nine Nether pointed to the ruins of the ancient city and said, “This is the Great Desolated City, and in those ancient times, it was one of the top forces in the Land of the Divine Beasts. In this city, there is a remnant of the Primordial Body-refining Tower.”

Mu Chen nodded, and then he looked at the world with his eyes narrowed and said, “It seems that this Primordial Body-refining Tower holds a lot of attraction for others.”

He could perceive that beyond that distant horizon, there was an incessant roar of powerful auras, and it was clear that these people were targeting the Primordial Body-refining Tower.

Apart from the rushing auras, Mu Chen gazed at the ruined city where many spiritual fluctuations had emerged. He frowned. It was evident that someone had taken the lead in getting there.

“Hmm?”

As Mu Chen sensed the spiritual fluctuations in the great city, he looked up. Suddenly, several long rainbows swept across the sky, and as they approached, they seemed to perceive their presence. They soared in the wind and appeared above them.

Just as the silhouettes appeared, a woman’s coquettish laughter was heard. Although her voice was pleasant, the words were harsh and mean. “Oh, I was wondering who it was. So, it’s Nine Nether, whom we haven’t heard from for so many years. I thought you had failed in evolution long ago.”
