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

194: Chapter 194 The Demon Stone Monster Group...On the other side.

The leaders of Jianghai City, having received Ye Yang’s reply through Yu Weiyue, were filled with both resentment and helplessness.

”Sigh... This Ancient Divine Phoenix is just like a cunning fox; our Jianghai City has been completely manipulated by him...”

”Just wait, he won’t be smug for long. If it weren’t for the fact that he’s so close to Jianghai City, not to mention the Great Xia Military Department, our Jianghai City alone would have dozens of ways to eliminate him!”

”Sigh, there’s no use saying all this now. We can only learn from the ancients and endure humiliation for the sake of our goal—”

After the harsh verbal reprimand from Mayor Lin of Jianghai City not long ago, the leaders of Jianghai City had clearly reflected and gained a new understanding.

They had completely let go of humanity’s arrogance toward other creatures, which was very important.

This would allow them to value other creatures deep in their hearts, helping them suffer fewer losses, avoid disasters, and protect the people of Jianghai City when facing powerful creatures like Ye Yang in the future.

...

The next day, Yu Weiyue from Jianghai City brought a few people to Ye Yang’s territory once again.

Ye Yang casually ordered Monkey King Wukong to handle the handover.

Looking at the giant ape standing four or five meters tall, covered in golden fur, the people from Jianghai City were somewhat fearful, yet at the same time, even more curious.

This giant ape was clearly a subordinate of the Ancient Divine Phoenix atop Divine Phoenix Mountain.

The aura radiating from this golden-furred giant ape alone made them feel extreme danger, causing their hair to stand on end. Just how strong, then, must the Ancient Divine Phoenix, the object of his submission, be?

”Hmm... Follow me...” Monkey King Wukong had no interest in chatting with them. He said this directly and started walking forward.

The group immediately followed.

After walking for a while, they arrived at a relatively open area. Not far away stood giant trees whose tops could not be seen even when looking up.

What pleased Yu Weiyue and the others from Jianghai City was that this place was not far from Divine Phoenix Mountain, and the concentration of spiritual energy was very high. If spirit rice were planted here, the quality after ripening would definitely be very high!

The reason for such a high concentration of spiritual energy here was simple: this was the habitat of Monkey King Wukong’s Golden Snub-nosed Monkey tribe.

Monkey King Wukong pointed to the open land in front of him, signaling the group, who immediately began sowing the spirit rice seeds.

Meanwhile, Yu Weiyue was observing her surroundings.

When she saw a group of golden-furred monkeys resting in the giant trees not far away, her eyes froze!

”Could this giant golden ape be an evolved mutation of a Golden Snub-nosed Monkey?!”

Subsequently, she was even more drawn to a small figure; she actually saw a baby in the arms of a female Golden Snub-nosed Monkey...

Her pupils constricted, and her heart was shaken...

She seemed to recall something. A few months ago, a media outlet in Jianghai City reported that a giant golden ape had saved a baby in front of a Male Lion.

”If that’s the case, is this baby the one saved by the giant golden ape...”

After the spirit rice seeds were planted, the people from Jianghai City left.

...

One week later.

Everything had returned to its usual calm, especially around the towering Divine Phoenix Mountain, where no beast dared to roar.

In the wilderness, all sorts of strange and unique ancient trees came into view, dazzling the eyes. Some towering trees reaching into the clouds had aerial roots growing from their trunks and branches, plunging into the ground from mid-air and gradually thickening to become support roots for the canopy, forming the unique landscape of a single tree becoming a forest.

Nearly a year had passed, and the concentration of spiritual energy in the air was still rising. Especially at night, when the scarlet moon covered the earth, those who observed carefully the next day could perceive some indescribable changes in the surrounding environment.

All of this was happening every single day, and no one knew what the future Blue Star would become.

Meanwhile, in the west of Jianghai City.

There was a dense forest. Although it was not as large as the dense forest to the south of Jianghai City, very few people still ventured here because powerful beasts lived here as well.

A few months ago, when Ye Yang’s dragon blood tree and dragon blood fruit were about to ripen, the aura they emitted had attracted the vast majority of beasts around Jianghai City.

Now, this dense forest was silent; there wasn’t even the sound of birds chirping or insects buzzing. The air was filled with several dangerous and heavy auras, which was clearly abnormal...

Based on the previous situation, it was impossible for beasts with such powerful auras to exist here...

However, while the native beasts had indeed been attracted to the territory around Divine Phoenix Mountain, the monsters from the demon primordial stone that appeared later had not—

...

”Croak! Get away from me, all of you! I, the frog, discovered this first!”

”Croak!”

A frog-like creature, emerald green all over and the size of a small hill, let out screeching sounds like demonic noise. A red tongue several meters long kept flicking out from its abyss-like mouth. The fist-sized warts on the long tongue were constantly expanding and contracting as if they were about to explode, making one’s scalp tingle and skin crawl.

Not far from it was a giant horse with flame patterns on its back. In its deep red eyes, it seemed as if flames were raging, and the air around it was faintly distorting due to the high temperature.

Finally, there was a Yellow-bellied Red-winged Giant Bird!

The three massive creatures all radiated terrifying auras. No creature dared to approach within a few kilometers, and any creature that dared to enter this domain had long since died.

”Hum!”

Hearing the emerald green frog-like creature’s cry, the flame horse exhaled heavily from its nostrils, releasing deep red flames mixed with white smoke.

”Hiss! You dare!”

The Yellow-bellied Red-winged Giant Bird beside it also glared angrily at the emerald green frog-like creature.

It was hard for the emerald green frog-like creature not to feel nervous under the gaze of both, after all, their evolutionary levels were all the same ”C” rank...

If it were a one-on-one fight, it wouldn’t be afraid, but facing two creatures of the same level would be very difficult.

”Croak! How about this... we split this spirit stone...”

The emerald green frog had to compromise, its eyes looking at the transparent stone radiating yellow light in front of it. It had clearly discovered this spirit stone first!

But before it could act, these two detestable guys had rushed over.

The Yellow-bellied Red-winged Giant Bird and the flame horse exchanged a glance, their eyes showing contemplation and some reluctance.

After all, although they possessed superior intelligence, deep down they were still creatures full of wildness, unwilling to share their spoils with other creatures...

The emerald green frog-like creature opened its abyss-like mouth, flicking its long tongue wildly, its shrill voice filled with extreme anger!

”Croak!!! You two detestable guys, I am willing to share the spirit stone with you... and you are actually hesitating?”

”Croak! If the powerful creature in that distant territory discovers the spirit stone here... none of us will be able to get any benefits from the spirit stone!”

Hearing this, the flame horse and the Yellow-bellied Red-winged Giant Bird shuddered.

They immediately nodded and agreed to the emerald green frog-like creature’s previous proposal...

Just then, in their perception, a creature radiating a powerful aura was approaching...
