Chapter 128: Cultivation Assistance? Waiting for Goulong’s Consciousness to Awaken

“Tm too forgetful. I forgot that Zhurong gave me some cultivation arts.” Ye Chen took the golden feather from the Immortal Phoenix and felt a little awkward. “The conditions have been fulfilled. I’ll go practice now.”

At first, he even planned to use the fact that the foreign realm was no longer safe as an excuse to ask the Feather Dragons to stay in the Divine Court after getting out of the array, so that he could gain benefits from it. However, he was interrupted by the Immortal Phoenix and immediately felt a bit
embarrassed.

“Wait a minute, Mr. Ye. Does this golden feather belong to Divine Beast Zhurong? Please let me have a look.” The leader of the Feather Dragons didn’t seem to mind Ye Chen’s negligence. It was very interested in the golden feather.
“That’s right. This is the feather that Divine Beast Zhurong left for us. It has recorded a large number of its cultivation arts! Do you believe that Senior Zhurong is still alive now?” The Immortal Phoenix bragged and said.

The leader of the Feather Dragon also moved closer to Ye Chen and started observing the golden feather.

Ye Chen understood that the leader of the Feather Dragons was testing him to see if his information was true.

All kinds of Divine Powers were usually recorded on cultivation art tablets made of white jade or spirit wood. However, there were exceptions. If the Divine Power was inherited or developed by a Divine Beast, then the cultivation art could be recorded on a part of the Divine Beast’s body.

This method of recording was rarely seen among Divine Beasts, because this kind of record was relatively fragile and difficult to preserve. And in order to pass down the cultivation arts to their descendants, Divine Beasts would still choose a cultivation art tablet that could be preserved for a longer time.
Therefore, this golden feather was evidence that Zhurong was still alive. It could also prove that Ye Chen wasn’t lying to it.

After a while, the leader of the Feather Dragons slowly stepped back, but its expression became confused again.

“Mr. Ye, I’ve read the content here. There are indeed various cultivation arts developed by Divine Beast Zhurong, but the aura on it seems to be inconsistent with that of Zhurong.” It said, “The Spiritual Energy in it is too weak. It doesn’t seem to be at the level of an ancient Divine Beast.”

“Since Zhurong’s strength hasn’t fully recovered, it’s normal for the feather to lack Spiritual Energy.” Ye Chen explained, “Do you have any other questions?”

The leader of the Feather Dragons shook its head and replied, “I have no other questions. However, I believe that the lack of Spiritual Energy in this golden feather will be beneficial to your cultivation.”

“Why do you say that?” Ye Chen perked up.

“Using a part of the body to record cultivation arts is usually an alternative method for mutated beasts to pass on the cultivation arts we developed to our descendants when we have no time creating cultivation art tablets. So, they aren’t created for humans,” explained the leader of the Feather Dragons.

“That’s right. Senior Zhurong left this golden feather behind to pass on the cultivation arts to Monkey and me.” The Immortal Phoenix replied, “However, Master also has a Divine Power like Senior Zhurong’s, so Master should be able to cultivate them, right?”

“So you have the same Divine Power as Zhurong?” The leader of the Feather Dragons looked at Ye Chen in surprise. “But I see that your fire-type constitution isn’t stable. If you rashly learn the cultivation arts in this golden feather, your meridians might not be able to withstand it.”
“You’re right.” Ye Chen immediately reacted.

The strength of human meridians was far weaker than that of a mutant beast’s. He had realized this when he was cultivating the Human Forbidden Art.

His Fire Melting Art was inherited when he incubated Zhurong and not obtained through cultivation. Therefore, if he used the golden feather that was made for mutated beasts to learn cultivation arts, there was a possibility that his meridians might be injured.

“There’s not enough Spiritual Energy in the golden feather now. Does this mean that I won’t have any problems learning?” Ye Chen asked.

“That’s true. Although there are a lot of cultivation arts in the golden feather now, the pressure on the human meridians will not be too great. Mr. Ye, you can use it at ease.” The leader of the Feather Dragons nodded. “On the contrary, the cultivation art tablet of the Art of Goulong contains too much
Spiritual Energy. You have to be careful.”

Ye Chen took out the cultivation art tablet that recorded the Art of Goulong from his inventory and nodded in agreement.

The cultivation art tablets were usually made of white jade and spirit wood because they could adapt to all kinds of Spiritual Energies and could strengthen themselves with Spiritual Energy. The cultivation art tablets made from these materials wouldn’t break or decay easily.
However, the cultivation art tablet created by Goulong still contained too much Spiritual Energy. For people whose defense power exceeded Level 100,000, it might not be dangerous to cultivate, but for Ye Chen.
He opened the system interface.

[Name: Ye Chen]

(Tribe: Divine Court]

(Position: Lord of the Court of Annihilation]

[Mutated Beasts: Immortal Phoenix, Kun Peng, Overlord Python (Mutated), Titan Ape, Deep Sea Dragon, Human-Faced Bird]

[Divine Powers: Undying Divine Fire, Kun Peng Speed, Law of Power, Concealment Mirage, Human Forbidden Art, Fire Melting Art]

[(Attack: 12,970 (Million-Level)]

(Defense: 10,800]

(Constitutions: Seamless Body, Water Type, Fire Type]

After absorbing enough Spiritual Energy in the array, both of Ye Chen’s values had increased by more than a thousand. However, even if the values of the mutated beasts’ combat strength could be added to his, the values of their defense power couldn’t. This made Ye Chen’s cultivation of the Art of
Goulong even more dangerous.

“That fellow who locked you all up is really annoying, If he hadn’t cast a spell on the cultivation art tablet, which made his descendants the only ones that can bring it in and out, Master wouldn’t have to take the risk to practice this cultivation art!” Upon learning that there was a risk, the Kun Peng
grumbled.

“That’s right. If we can get Goulong to help us and withdraw some of its Spiritual Energy, that would be convenient.” Ye Chen also smiled wryly.
“Divine Beast Goulong’s consciousness is in a dormant state most of the time. Today, it has already awakened twice to communicate with you and me. I’m afraid it can’t communicate anymore.” The leader of the Feather Dragons clearly took Ye Chen’s words seriously.

“In that case, perhaps I can really ask Goulong for help?” Ye Chen didn’t expect to receive new information from his random complaint. “When will Goulong wake up again? I can stay here and cultivate while waiting for it.”

“Even if Divine Beast Goulong only has a fragment of its Spiritual Pool left, it is still very powerful. Perhaps it can indeed be of help to you.” The leader of the Feather Dragons nodded. “Its next awakening will be about ten days later, but it’s extremely disadvantageous to you.”
However, Ye Chen, who was facing it, looked confused.

Seeing Ye Chen’s expression, the leader of the Feather Dragons also found it strange.

“As far as I know, you humans can’t rely on Spiritual Energy to replenish your energy. Ten days is enough to tire out your body. When that time comes, even if Divine Beast Goulong awakens, you won’t have the energy to cultivate another cultivation art.” It explained to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen was speechless.

“What are you worried about? Who doesn’t bring food when exploring a Mystic Realm?” He opened his inventory and took out a completely intact mutated beast corpse. Then, he quickly ignited the Undying God Fire in his hands and started roasting it.

The leader of the Feather Dragons asked, “… Where did you get this?”
