Ye Chen could swear that he was just converting the Spiritual Energy like usual.
However, after the Water Spiritual Energy flow that passed through the leader of the Feather Dragons was converted into Fire Spiritual Energy, he felt a strange suction force coming from Zhurong on his left.
And yet, Zhurong was currently possessing the Immortal Phoenix. As Ye Chen’s first mutated beast, the Immortal Phoenix had many resonances with Ye Chen. He had also resonated with the same pure Fire Spiritual Energy in its body. Especially when Ye Chen used the Undying Divine Fire, he could clearly feel the faint connection between him and the Immortal Phoenix’s Spiritual Energy.
Therefore, Ye Chen thought that he was helping to connect with the Undying Divine Fire on his left hand and didn’t pay too much attention to it. He only continued to convert and transmit the Spiritual Energy that had already been converted.
In the end, he was almost sucked towards Zhurong’s body instantly. Fortunately, the leader of the Feather Dragons on his right was quick enough to stop transmitting Spiritual Energy. It only continued to transmit Goulong’s Spiritual Energy after he stabilized the connection with its hand using Spiritual Energy flow. This prevented the tragedy of Goulong’s Spiritual Energy leaking or the Spiritual Energy connection from breaking.
“What are you doing? If I hadn’t reacted quick enough just now, we would have triggered the trap in the secret chamber and been buried in ice!” The leader of the Feather Dragons complained.
“How would I know? I was sucked over in an instant!” Ye Chen was also shocked and angry. He turned to look at Zhurong at the side. “What’s going on here?”
Zhurong didn’t reply.
It had already received the guidance of Goulong’s Spiritual Energy flow and completely zoned out at the moment, so it couldn’t hear Ye Chen’s question.
However, even without a reply, Ye Chen could feel part of the reason.
He was being dragged towards Zhurong by a suddenly stronger suction force. At the same time, his own Spiritual Energy was going out of control. A portion of the Fire Spiritual Energy in his body was being absorbed through the part where he touched Zhurong!
And yet, the strange thing was that the Spiritual Energy that was sucked away seemed to have a different source as the one left behind.
Although a large amount of Fire Spiritual Energy was sucked away, it was basically the Spiritual Energy that he mobilized when he used the Fire Melting Art for conversion. To put it more directly, it was the Fire Spiritual Energy produced in his body with Zhurong’s Spiritual Energy as the source.
The Spiritual Energy from the Immortal Phoenix wasn’t affected at all. He could even use the Undying Divine Fire.

From this point of view, it was as if Zhurong was taking away a portion of the Spiritual Energy that originally belonged to it from Ye Chen’s body. This made it even more difficult for Ye Chen to use the Fire Melting Art to convert Spiritual Energy. He had to use some of the Spiritual Energy from the Immortal Phoenix to help control the Fire Melting Art. However, the Immortal Phoenix’s overly pure Fire Spiritual Energy was much more violent, making it difficult for him to grasp it.
“This fellow is absorbing the Spiritual Energy that belongs to Zhurong’s main body in my body.” Ye Chen frowned. “If this continues, the Spiritual Energy that it feeds me will be exhausted. How can I use the Fire Melting Art to convert Spiritual Energy for it?”
Before he finished speaking, he felt a sudden pulling pain in his meridians. At the same time, the Fire Melting Art stopped circulating.
Zhurong absorbed all the Spiritual Energy that came from its main body. Meanwhile, the suction force was still pulling at Ye Chen’s meridians, trying to continue receiving the converted Spiritual Energy. But how could there be more?!
This pain was quickly spreading from Ye Chen’s left hand to his entire body, making him panic for a moment.
“Zhurong, the Spiritual Energy has all been absorbed. Wake up!” He shouted anxiously. Seeing that the other party had no reaction, he turned his face to the blue stone that stored the fragment of Goulong’s Spirit Pool and complained, “Are you still learning? Why is the learning ability of an Ancient Divine Beast so bad?!”
However, to his surprise, Goulong, who was teaching Zhurong the Mystic Ability, was also silent, leaving him and the leader of the Feather Dragons looking at each other.
At this moment, the Kun Peng, who was watching from the side, asked curiously.
“Master, you said that Senior Zhurong has already absorbed all the Spiritual Energy. Then, what are you transmitting to it now? It looks like the same golden-red Spiritual Energy flow as before.”
“Idiot, are you mistaken? I’m not transmitting anything” Ye Chen was confused.
“Impossible. This feels like Senior Zhurong’s Spiritual Energy flow. The amount of Spiritual Energy it transmits seems quite large.” The Kun Peng circled around Ye Chen twice and focused on Ye Chen’s left hand that was transmitting Spiritual Energy to Zhurong’s claw. It explained its feelings again, “Being able to transmit so much Spiritual Energy, it’s like Senior Zhurong is living in your body, Master.”
Ye Chen stretched his neck out and looked at his left hand in confusion. He still didn’t feel anything strange except for the suction force.
Monkey, who had been holding Zhurong’s golden feather, also came over.
“Master, I heard what Senior Zhurong said through the golden feather.” It reported, “It’s impressed that you can actually convert so much Spiritual Energy that matches its attribute. It said that it’s really lucky that it can replenish its strength while learning a Mystic Ability…”
“…” Ye Chen was speechless.
If not for the fact that he had to maintain the connection of Spiritual Energy between his hands and couldn’t let go, he really wanted to wake Zhurong by shaking it with his hands and ask if it wasn’t living in the same world as him.
Right now, all the meridians in his body were in pain. A gap seemed to have been created in the middle by the suction force and a cold wind seemed to be blowing through it.
“Wait, this doesn’t feel right.”
Suddenly, Ye Chen felt something amiss.
He carefully sensed the coldness in his meridians and realized that he did seem to feel something different in the pain… It made him feel that his body wasn’t like an empty bottle that was being squeezed. Instead, his meridians had already become a tunnel that led to a certain place to help Zhurong absorb the Spiritual Energy it needed.
And on the other end of this “tunnel” was clearly not Goulong and the leader of the Feather Dragons but another space.
“I shouldn’t be unfamiliar with this space, because I seem to have felt this coldness before…” He closed his eyes and pondered quietly in this coldness.
When he carefully sensed the coldness inside, he realized that there was a trace of Water Spiritual Energy. There was a clear source. It was a wisp of Water Spiritual Energy that had been extracted from the gathered Water Spiritual Energy. It was very pure and undoubtedly came from a Spirit Stone from a foreign realm.
However, this Spiritual Energy resonated with Ye Chen’s meridians, which was why it was so difficult to notice…
Ye Chen opened his eyes.
He was certain that the other end of the “tunnel” was the Divine Court.
What Zhurong absorbed was the Spiritual Energy of its main body.
