The moment he entered the water, Mu Chen could clearly feel the overwhelming fluctuation around him before he realized he was diving… As he swept his gaze around, he noticed that he and Nine Nether were in the middle of a great ocean. There was no end to how wide and how deep the sea was, and its eeriness was also without limits.
A spiritual glow emanated from their bodies, separating them from the sea. Mu Chen looked at the emerald ocean, and his eyes narrowed slightly as he felt the weight of the water. With a thorough scan, he noticed that every drop of the ocean contained a micro figure of a divine fowl.
”The water contains magnificent bloodline energy,” Mu Chen exclaimed.
The so-called Deification Pool was similar to the God Sea in the Land of the Divine Beasts where they had met the three Sovereign Beasts. However, the former was man-made. Furthermore, the Heavenly Sovereigns who perished here did it of their own accord. Hence, this place was milder than the God Sea, and it was much easier to refine and absorb energy.
The God Sea was transformed from those Heavenly Sovereigns who perished in the Land of the Divine Beasts. Therefore, it contained various consciousnesses, and the bloodline energy was somewhat violent. Ordinary beings dared not absorb and refine the energy.
”It's a pity that you are not a Heavenly Sovereign yet. Otherwise, you could go to the God Sea of the three Sovereign Beasts to cultivate. It's much better than here,” said Mu Chen.
Back then, the three Sovereign Beasts had given Mu Chen a jade talisman. He could use that to enter the God Sea again, but the sea would vanish into thin air once the talisman was used.
”That God Sea might be strong, but it's too dangerous. Moreover… it's the last chance to use it. It would be more useful to you.” Nine Nether smiled, as it did not bother her.
Mu Chen shook his head helplessly. Without commenting further, he observed his surroundings and asked, ”What should we do now?”
”As a lot of our seniors perished in this Deification Pool, the bloodline energy is quite intense. Eventually, they condense into Blood Essence, which is a rare tonic for the Divine Beasts. If we can swallow and refine it, it will be effective for our bloodline evolution.”
A passionate fire flashed in Nine Nether's pretty eyes. She looked around and said, ”As the Blood Essence possesses intense blood aura, it can form into Divine Beast figures and swim around in the Deification Pool. If we can find them, we can capture them. But we need to hurry. This Deification Pool may seem boundless, but the number of Blood Essences it can condense is limited. Besides, other supreme talents from those Sovereign Divine Clans are after them, too. They will definitely snap it up at the fastest possible speed.”
”Intense blood aura?” Mu Chen pondered slightly before he closed his eyes. He activated his Spiritual Energy Sensor. Although the entire ocean was full of the bloody aura, the Blood Essences were more refined. Hence, if they were close, he could sense it.
Nine Nether stood to the side and kept quiet as not to disturb his detection.
Mu Chen's detection lasted for quite a while before he opened his eyes and looked to the northwest. ”There is a strong amount of blood aura over there!”
”Let's go!” Upon hearing that, Nine Nether immediately brightened up. They charged out directly drawing two streams of water trails behind them.
Following the direction Mu Chen pointed out, they traveled at a high speed for a few minutes before they finally slowed down. With eyes full of curiosity, they stared at the huge golden eagle before them that was flapping its wings and exuding a tremendous amount of blood aura. A spiritual glow gathered in Mu Chen's eyes as he saw a round, red spiritual pearl right in the center of its body. The blood aura on the spiritual pearl was so intense that he was slightly shocked to see it.
”Although this divine golden eagle was transformed by the Blood Essence, the blood aura is so intense that it is comparable to a Complete Earthly Sovereign.” Nine Nether gave a bitter smile. This was the reason why people under the Heavenly Sovereign level needed a protector. Otherwise, even if she could find the Blood Essences, she could not return them to their original form for refining due to her inferior strength.
”Let me handle this.” Mu Chen smiled. Immediately, he flung his sleeve, and majestic spiritual energy swept out into a giant sky-concealing hand. The hand reached out towards the divine golden eagle.
The divine eagle transformed by the Blood Essence seemed to be aware of the incoming giant hand. Even though it had no spiritual intelligence, it could act on its own instincts. Instantly, it flapped its wings, trying to escape.
Boom!
