Spiritual Energy Revival: Transform Into a Divine Phoenix, Automatically Upgrade

172: Chapter 172 The Choice of Ancestral RaceHundreds of miles of golden lightning, like a surging ocean of tidal waves, perfectly blanketed the sky!

The golden lightning shimmered on the ground, its blinding radiance making it impossible for anyone to look up!

Rumble!

It was as if a giant drum was in the sky, constantly emitting thunderous booms!

At this moment, whether it was the wild beasts in the mountains or the humans responsible for construction in Jianghai City, their hearts trembled violently!

The golden lightning amidst the dark clouds in the sky roared like massive thunder dragons!

The powerful majesty, accompanied by the immense momentum, left them unable to move, only able to collapse onto the ground...

...

In the sky.

Ye Yang, amidst the ocean of dark clouds and golden lightning, did not feel any fear.

The surrounding ocean of golden lightning was originally formed by the Supreme Aura Cells within his body, making him feel a sense of kinship.

It was like autumn, the most comfortable season for the body.

Hundreds of miles of golden lightning converged toward his location, transforming into strands of pure golden energy that poured into his body.

Ye Yang soon sensed that the bloodline power within him, the Thunder Power, was growing at high speed; meanwhile, his physical attributes were also rapidly improving!

An unknown amount of time passed as Ye Yang’s mind became completely tranquil, feeling the strengthening in every part of his body. It wasn’t until the golden lightning energy around him weakened that he snapped back to his senses.

”Prompt: You have successfully completed the trial and met the conditions for racial metamorphosis!”

”Prompt: Please choose the race for your atavistic metamorphosis!”

Opening his golden eyes, Ye Yang had not yet adapted to the powerful strength within his body when he was drawn in by the mechanical prompt in his mind.

”Racial metamorphosis? A choice?”

”Does this mean I can choose my own metamorphosis race?!”

Before Ye Yang’s shock could subside, a massive suction force surged from the deepest part of his body, and his consciousness instantly plunged into darkness.

...

Within the darkness, Ye Yang’s consciousness gradually recovered.

”Is this... the depths of my body?”

The surroundings were pitch black, but Ye Yang did not panic because his mental energy was extremely powerful.

Even though his consciousness was in this dark space, he could still sense the situation around his physical body outside.

Sensing that his physical body’s situation outside was very safe, Ye Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

He was afraid that while his consciousness was inexplicably submerged in the depths of his body, some crisis might occur; that would be terrible.

Without the worry of being ”backstabbed,” Ye Yang began to carefully examine this dark space.

There wasn’t a single ray of light in the darkness, as if he had entered a pool of black water, and then he realized he could move.

Controlling his consciousness to travel forward rapidly, after an unknown amount of time, a sliver of red light appeared in the darkness.

He quickly approached...

”Hot...”

A scorching sensation reached Ye Yang’s perception, and what appeared before him was a glowing red sphere.

Through the surface of the sphere, he could see the phantom of a red bird.

With a thought from Ye Yang, a piece of information reached his consciousness: as long as his consciousness immersed itself within, his racial metamorphosis would be complete.

But he did not do so immediately.

”Since it’s a choice of racial atavism... then there must be more than one race to choose from...”

Silently noting this location, he moved deeper into the darkness...

...

The outside world.

While Ye Yang was focused on searching for a race within the dark space of his body.

The lightning and dark clouds in the sky had gradually dissipated.

Once the dark clouds completely vanished, Ye Yang’s massive figure was naturally exposed against the clear sky.

Originally, the wild beasts in the mountains and the people in Jianghai City thought the phenomenon had ended, but that sense of trembling did not disappear; instead, it fluctuated violently.

It felt as if a great mountain was weighing on them, making them unable to move.

Within a range of hundreds of miles, only wild beasts whose evolution level had reached ”D-” could barely lift their heads to look at the figure in the sky radiating a powerful aura.

”Chirp chirp... what’s going on?!”

Little White Fox Ah Li opened her small mouth wide, as if she had seen something unbelievable. Even her phone, which never left her paws, fell to the ground without her noticing.

In her wide, pink, fox-like eyes, the color of Ye Yang’s figure high in the sky was constantly changing.

One moment it was red like fire, the next it was bluer than the sky, and in the blink of an eye, it was white again...

Seven or eight colors appeared back and forth...

Nearby, Bear Big, Bear Two, and Monkey King Wukong also watched Ye Yang hanging high in the sky.

As the colors on Ye Yang’s body shifted, the aura they felt was also very different.

One moment it was scorching like fire, the next it was cold as ice, and then there was even a sense of chill that surpassed the previous Black Giant Snake!

This caused the beasts to stare intently at Ye Yang in the sky. They realized that the Boss’s mutation and evolution this time would definitely be extraordinary...

...

In the sky.

Ye Yang was still immersed in the dark space within his body. He did not know that along with every colored light sphere he found, his own body would also undergo changes.

After searching for a long time, Ye Yang’s expression became somewhat weary.

”My current mental energy is far beyond when I was a human in my previous life. Since stepping onto the path of evolution, except for my fledgling period... my spirit has never felt fatigued...”

”This dark space consumes mental energy. It seems I can’t keep searching like this...”

Ye Yang fell silent for a moment.

He now understood the current situation. This dark space was the deepest part of his body.

Those rare glowing spheres were the atavistic races he could choose.

Naturally, he wanted to return to the most powerful creature, which was why he kept searching in the dark space, remembering the location of each glowing sphere he found.

He had originally wanted to continue searching for more glowing spheres, but his low mental energy could no longer support his squandering.

Stopping his movement, his thoughts flashed rapidly.

”A total of nine glowing spheres have been discovered...”

”But with so many spheres, I don’t know which atavistic races they represent...”

The current situation was just as he had speculated: the depths of a species’ body contained multiple genetic bloodlines of Ancient Creatures, and behind each ancient genetic bloodline were even older bloodlines of many creatures.

It was like the branches on the crown of a giant tree. Although the creatures at the end of the atavism might ultimately be the same, a powerful biological bloodline would certainly make his evolutionary path much smoother.

”Previously, the races that the Supreme Aura Cells automatically reverted to were the White-Feathered Giant Eagle and then the Thunderbird, both of which are extremely powerful creatures... I can’t go astray...”

Ye Yang began to feel conflicted. He couldn’t distinguish between the light spheres; other than the different colors, there wasn’t much difference.

Just as his mental energy was about to be exhausted.

A term suddenly flashed through his mind!

”Right! That group of humans from Jianghai City gave me the nickname ’Divine Phoenix’!”

”The phoenix in mythology should be a powerful bird—and phoenixes are inseparable from fire! The representative color of fire is red!”

With a flash of thought, he instantly appeared in front of a small glowing red sphere. This was also the first atavistic race he had discovered upon entering the dark space.

Without hesitation, his consciousness instantly merged into it...

At the same time, the system’s mechanical prompt sounded in his mind.

”Prompt: Your racial atavism is successful!”

”Prompt: Your race has been updated to...”
