Chapter 115: Mystic Realm Cemetery

“If this water is poisonous, doesn’t that mean that the Spirit Pool is also poisonous?”
After hearing what Little Purple said, Monkey was the first to become nervous.
“Not like that. I feel like there’s something separating the Spirit Pool and the water.” Little Purple answered. The Titan’s Eye on its head was flickering. Apparently, it had already looked into it.
“Hey, with my Poison Illusion Art that I cultivate, I should be able to sense the poison in the water but I don’t feel anything.” The Kun Peng said strangely, “I only feel that the water is very cold and there’s a rotten smell inside.”
“That’s probably because there are many strange mutated beast corpses in the water that suppress the aura of the poison.” Little Purple explained, “There are many corpses in the water. It’s like a cemetery.”
“Acemetery?”
Ye Chen instantly remembered the long bar-shaped object that he had seen. Although he didn’t see it very clearly, he suspected that it was the remaining part of the Feather Dragon’s skeleton on the fourth level of the Mystic Realm. After all, it was really strange to have a skull but not a body.
So, before coming down, Ye Chen had already prepared himself for some more mutated beast remains in the Mystic Realm.
According to Zhurong, this Mystic Realm used to be in the outside world. It was quite normal for some mutated beasts to die here after entering the Mystic Realm.
However, if there was a cemetery here, he would be very shocked. After all, the Ice Fire Beetles mainly cultivated defensive techniques and didn’t usually fight with mutated beasts from the outside world. They didn’t have enough attack power. Why were there so many mutated beast skeletons in the
Mystic Realm?
“Little Purple, are you sure?” Ye Chen waved his hand and asked the Kun Peng to move down a little. Then, he continued to ask Little Purple, “Can you see the cause of the deaths of those mutated beasts with the Titan’s Eye?”
“The bodies of those mutated beasts have already rotted. I can’t tell the exact cause of death, Master.” After carefully observing the pool, Little Purple answered, “But most of the hundreds of skeletons are severely damaged. I feel like something forced them into this place and crushed them.”
“Being able to force so many mutated beasts into a Mystic Realm and kill them, this power must be strong.” Ye Chen was a little puzzled. “But why do I feel like I’ve experienced something similar?”
In order to verify his thoughts, he gazed at the Divine Beasts.
“It’s a beast tide caused by humans!” The Kun Peng exclaimed, “At that time, many mutated beasts rushed towards the Divine Court. Then, all of them were stuck and killed in the valley by me, Big Sister, and Monkey!”
“Yes, it’s certainly very difficult to force the mutated beasts in. However, it would be much easier to lure them in with medicinal powder like that time.” Ye Chen said in certainty.
“But we were only trying to protect ourselves back then. What happened here?” Monkey asked, “Who would force the mutated beasts to come to the Mystic Realm and kill them for no reason?”
“Yeah, there must be a reason,” Little Purple then said, “I feel that there seems to be an entrance hidden in the Spirit Pool below, but it’s too far away. I can’t see it clearly.”
“Killing so many mutated beasts just to open a door?” Ye Chen frowned.
If he wanted to figure out what was behind the door, he wouldn’t have to ask Little Purple for help. He could just look at the system notification.
However, with this pool covering it, he also couldn’t see the Spirit Pool clearly, so he certainly couldn’t trigger the system notification either. And poisonous water in the pool also made it impossible for him to rashly go down.
The more troublesome thing was that since someone had once used the beast tide to attack the fifth level of the Ice Fire Beetle Mystic Realm, it naturally meant that this Mystic Realm had already been searched.
“Only the skull of the Feather Dragon was left on the fourth level. It really doesn’t seem like a secret treasure that should have been left in the Ice Fire Beetle Mystic Realm…” Ye Chen pondered.” Could it be that the Feather Dragon that died here was part of this beast tide?”
“That’s impossible. Feather Dragons have a lot of requirements for their living environment. They often live in the foreign realms. Nothing can attract them to the outside world.” The Godly Sea Steadying Needle said firmly, “As a fellow dragon, I know the Feather Dragons the best.”
“Then is it possible that the Feather Dragon was the killer of this group of mutated beasts and it accidentally died here too?” The Kun Peng asked. ƒ𝑟𝙚e𝔀𝗲𝒃n𝒐𝘷𝗲Ɩ.c𝗼𝚖
The question brought up by the Kun Peng wasn’t impossible.
To confirm, Ye Chen asked Little Purple again, “Little Purple, help me see if there’s a skeleton of a Feather Dragon in this pool?”
“Yes, and it happens to be missing its head. It’s very likely to be the one you just discovered, Master.” Little Purple quickly replied, “Unlike other shattered skeletons, it’s the only one that’s still intact.”
“In that case, Kun Peng’s guess is possible.” Ye Chen concluded.
The Godly Sea Steadying Needle at the side interrupted again.
“It’s absolutely impossible! The Feather Dragons have a gentle temperament and don’t have a strong attack power. It’s basically impossible for them to turn themselves into a vicious beast by killing other mutated beasts!”
As if it was to protect the reputation of the Dragons, the Godly Sea Steadying Needle was very serious about this matter.
“You also know that you are the only one who understands the Dragons the most. Then don’t just say that it’s impossible. Give us a reasonable explanation.” Seeing that everyone’s guesses had been denied several times, Monkey was somewhat unhappy and it shouted.
“Everyone is discussing the right possibility. Don’t be anxious.” Little Purple persuaded Monkey before turning to the Godly Sea Steadying Needle. “However, Monkey is also right. Godly Sea Steadying Needle, can you tell what’s so special about this Mystic Realm that can attract the Feather Dragon?”
Ever since the Godly Sea Steadying Needle advanced to a Divine Beast, Little Purple had had a good impression of this little sister who was in the same disguise as it did. Its voice was much gentler when it spoke.
“Well… I don’t feel anything.” The Godly Sea Steadying Needle was a little hesitant. “However, I know that the Feather Dragons have a characteristic. I don’t know if it has anything to do with its skeleton in this Mystic Realm.”
“Regardless of whether it’s useful or not, just tell us first.” Ye Chen also turned to the Godly Sea Steadying Needle.
According to his memories, there weren’t many records of the Feather Dragons in the Wasteland Remembrance. Perhaps this was because the people of that time hadn’t realized the value of the Feather Dragons.
However, what the Godly Sea Steadying Needle said next changed his worldview.
“The person who attacked my people took a few young Feather Dragons with him and killed them near our habitat…” Speaking of this sad incident, the Godly Sea Steadying Needle’s tone sounded very angry..” After those Feather Dragons were killed, the array that my people set up around the volcano
disappeared!”
