Mo Ling happily handed the Blood Spirit Mud in her hands to Liu Bai, agreeing that afterward she and her brother would each receive a Blood Spirit Pill.
Liu Bai did not refuse. After all, the effect of consuming the Blood Spirit Mud directly versus refining it into a pill and then consuming it was vastly different.
Next, the four of them sat atop the meteorite, watching other meteorites of various sizes speeding past. Yet they did not sense the faintest trace of vital blood energy. Clearly, none of these meteorites contained Blood Spirit Mud.
"Ah, our luck is terrible. We've passed so many and still haven't found any…" Mo Ling pouted slightly.
"Hehe, just now you said your luck was good, and now you say it's bad. Aren't your luck swings a bit too quick?" Liu Bai teased with a gentle smile.
"No, luck always changes quickly," Mo Ling rolled her eyes and argued mischievously.
As they drew closer to the Divine Beast Plains, the meteorites flying past them became more numerous. Most were ordinary stones, but occasionally one or two contained Blood Spirit Mud.
"We are approaching the Divine Beast Plains," in the distant darkness, a faint light shimmered through the void. Mo Ling immediately exclaimed in delight.
"The outer region of the Divine Beast Plains has a belt of meteorites. Among them are countless stones, the best opportunity to obtain Blood Spirit Mud," Mo Feng said after looking up.
Though he usually remained silent, when it came to something that could enhance his physical body, he was very attentive.
Soon, the surrounding darkness began to recede rapidly.
In the distance, light erupted. Liu Bai saw on the outskirts of the light an enormous meteorite belt stretching beyond sight, giving an overwhelming impression.
The meteorite belt spun at high speed around the Divine Beast Plains. If the plains were considered a city, then this would be equivalent to the moat protecting it.
Even the weakest of the four were at Sixth Grade Sovereign, so while the meteorite belt was dangerous, it was not enough to make them afraid to enter.
Once the four entered the meteorite belt, each locked their divine sense on the surrounding giant stones. Any stone containing vital blood energy could not escape their detection.
Liu Bai's eyes swept over the area and quickly locked onto a black stone about one hundred zhang in size. With a snap of his fingers, a streak of light shattered the stone into pieces.
Three streams of blood light shot out from the stone, each fleeing in different directions. Liu Bai's palm moved, directly drawing the three streams back. Looking at the Blood Spirit Mud floating in his palm, a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.
The Blood Spirit Mud he already had was sufficient to refine Blood Spirit Pills, so he would consume any additional ones directly. The others followed the same approach.
With a gentle rub of his palm, the mud transformed into small spheres, and Liu Bai swallowed them in one gulp.
In an instant, he felt a scorching heat surge through his body. His flesh and bones were washed by waves of fiery energy, giving a near-greedy craving sensation.
A flash of crimson light burst from Liu Bai's body, but after a few breaths, everything returned to normal.
With his Dragon Phoenix Physique, Liu Bai absorbed the vital blood energy even faster than the other three genuine divine beasts, which surprised them.
Gripping his palm, Liu Bai felt immense power surging through his limbs and bones.
While the four searched the meteorite belt for Blood Spirit Mud, a colossal meteorite suddenly appeared in their sight, accompanied by an extremely dense aura of vital blood energy.
"The Blood Spirit Mud within this meteorite might already be forming into Blood Spirit Mud Essence!" Jiu You's eyes gleamed. Even in the Divine Beast Plains, such intensely vital Blood Spirit Mud was extremely rare.
However, this massive meteorite would not go unnoticed. A team had already appeared nearby.
"It's the Thunder Crow Clan!" Jiu You's expression turned cold.
Liu Bai raised an eyebrow. He had heard of the Thunder Crow Clan from Clan Leader Tianhuang. They were another top-tier force, not inferior to the Nine Nether Sparrow Clan. As a first-tier power in the entire Great Thousand World, their strength was formidable.
"Them? How annoying!" Mo Ling pouted and muttered. She clearly held a strong dislike for the Thunder Crow Clan.
Liu Bai, however, smiled lightly. "Since they are enemies, all the better. We can deal with them here beforehand and avoid trouble when we enter the Divine Beast Plains."
The enemy group also had four people, but their cultivation was ordinary.
Besides two early-stage Seventh-Grade Sovereigns, the other two were merely half-step Seventh-Grade. Even compared to Jiu You, they were insufficient, not to mention Liu Bai at Ninth-Grade Sovereign.
When Jiu You and the others spotted the Thunder Crow Clan, the clan naturally noticed them as well.
Their immediate thought was to force Jiu You's group back and monopolize the Blood Spirit Mud within the meteorite.
But just as they were about to speak, four streams of invisible and intangible lightning shot through the void. All four felt their hearts violently tremble and then collapsed like puddles of mud at the same time.
This scene shocked Mo Feng and Mo Ling.
They looked at Liu Bai in astonishment.
They had not sensed Liu Bai's attack at all, yet they knew it had to be his doing. Only Liu Bai had such capability.
To silently kill four Seventh-Grade Sovereign-level divine beasts in an instant was terrifying.
Liu Bai, however, paid no attention. With a single hand motion, he drew a stream of blood imbued with lightning from each of the four Thunder Crow Clan members and stored it directly in his jade bottle.
This again astonished Mo Feng and Mo Ling. Though the four were divine beasts, their blood was not particularly rare. With Liu Bai's strength, he could easily handle it.
Liu Bai smiled slightly and did not explain.
For the second stage of his Dragon Phoenix Physique, he required a much larger quantity of divine beast blood. While the priority was still top-tier divine beast blood, the blood of other clans was not unusable.
For true dragons and true phoenixes at the apex of the divine beast hierarchy, any divine beast blood could be absorbed.
The four then moved onto the massive meteorite. They saw a surging flow of vital blood energy emanating from it, covering the meteorite in a layer of red light, bringing joy to their faces.
"What intensely strong vital blood energy. I wonder how powerful the Blood Spirit Mud inside will be?" Mo Ling said eagerly.
On this journey, they had never seen a meteorite with such potent vital blood energy. It was clear that the Blood Spirit Mud inside would far surpass anything they had obtained before.
When they broke open the stone, Liu Bai and the others discovered within the dense crimson light an object resembling an egg.
Its surface was translucent, but inside, a form was faintly visible. It looked like an embryo, yet its shape was extremely strange. It did not resemble any known spiritual beast. Instead, it seemed to contain aspects of various spiritual beasts, forming a kind of chimera.
"Indeed, it is a Blood Spirit Mud embryo. Its intelligence has not yet formed because the vital blood energy is merely too strong, giving it a faint spiritual nature. If it were to develop intelligence, then perhaps in millions of years it might take shape and become like a true spiritual beast," Jiu You said with eyes full of excitement.
"This Blood Spirit Mud embryo is worth hundreds of times more than the ones we obtained previously," Mo Ling exclaimed, clapping her hands and laughing. "If sold in the Great Thousand World, it would be worth at least five million Sovereign Spirit Liquids."
"Looks like our luck is good," Liu Bai said with a smile as he carefully stored the Blood Spirit Mud embryo.
The other three did not object, for this item had been taken from the Thunder Crow Clan and was Liu Bai's spoil.
"There is still some time before we enter the Divine Beast Plains. You can start refining this Blood Spirit Mud embryo directly. It should be quite beneficial," Jiu You reminded him.
Liu Bai nodded.
This refinement would not be as simple as previous ones.
With a wave of his hand, the Innate Five Element Disk flew out from Liu Bai's body, expanding to over ten zhang in size, carrying the four of them forward.
Liu Bai sat cross-legged at the center of the plate. On the four-winged Flying Flood Dragon pattern, he began refining the Blood Spirit Mud embryo.
As waves of dense vital blood energy merged into his body, the temperature around Liu Bai rose. His blood seemed to boil, flowing through his flesh and bones like molten lava.
The massive vital blood aura radiated from the embryo and Liu Bai in all directions but was blocked by the colorful light on the Innate Five Element Disk and then spiraled back inward.
At first, Jiu You, Mo Feng, and Mo Ling remained alert, protecting Liu Bai.
But seeing that the Five Element Disk could contain the dispersal of the blood energy, the three relaxed.
A quarter of an hour later, when the final strand of vital blood energy had been absorbed, Liu Bai felt the patterns of the True Dragon and True Phoenix etched on his chest and back tremble violently.
The trembling felt as though two ancient feral beasts were about to awaken.
Bang!
Just as this thought crossed Liu Bai's mind, his body shook violently. Crimson light erupted from him, and his upper garments instantly turned to ash.
With the clothes gone, a massive purple-golden dragon pattern sprawled across his chest, radiating terrifying pressure. Simultaneously, a True Phoenix pattern with folded wings on his back twitched, emanating equally terrifying pressure.
The two unmatched pressures rippled around Liu Bai, causing the surrounding space to tremble.
"This is… True Phoenix Pressure? And True Dragon Pressure?!" Mo Feng and Mo Ling exclaimed in shock.
The siblings had phoenix bloodlines and were highly sensitive to True Phoenix Pressure. When they sensed it emanating from Liu Bai, both felt a fear that they could not shake.
Roar!
Shriek!
As the siblings trembled, a thunderous dragon roar and phoenix cry suddenly reverberated through the void.
Jiu You and the others were astonished to see that the True Dragon and True Phoenix patterns on Liu Bai's chest and back had opened their eyes.
People often say the final stroke brings a painting to life. At this moment, the dragon and phoenix patterns on Liu Bai seemed to awaken. What had once been mere designs now appeared alive.
Jiu You and the others heard the roars and cries as though they were happening right beside them. Their pupils dilated as they sensed an extremely terrifying pressure awakening from Liu Bai's body.
"Dragon Phoenix True Scripture, Dragon Phoenix Physique…" Jiu You thought, the two names appearing repeatedly in her mind.
Even if they could not find the Undying Bird Blood in the Divine Beast Plains to advance their bloodlines, as long as Liu Bai's True Dragon Spirit and True Phoenix Spirit reached the second stage, the trip would be worthwhile.
Mo Feng and Mo Ling remained in shock at the True Phoenix Pressure radiating from Liu Bai.
As the True Phoenix pattern on Liu Bai's back became clearer, the pressure on the siblings intensified. At this moment, even seventy percent of their combat power would be difficult to unleash in his presence.
Fortunately, the process was brief. After a moment, the aura from the True Dragon and True Phoenix patterns faded, allowing the siblings to breathe freely once more.
For that brief instant, every second had felt like an eternity.
"The Divine Beast Plains, we are almost there," Jiu You said, her voice reaching Mo Feng and Mo Ling as they relaxed.
Liu Bai, now wearing a white robe again, looked ahead and saw that they had finally reached the end of the endless meteorite belt.
Beyond that end floated an enormous ancient continent, still stretching beyond the eye, suspended silently in the void.
The ancient continent exuded a primordial aura. Even at a great distance, Liu Bai and the others felt their breath catch from the overwhelming presence.
Faintly, it seemed as though countless ancient and powerful beast roars traversed space and time, echoing from the primordial era.
Liu Bai took a deep breath. Though he had seen remnants of ancient battlefields before, the Divine Beast Plains still left him in awe.
A vast pit spanning hundreds of thousands of zhang was clearly visible even from their position outside the Divine Beast Plains.
From above, the pit resembled a colossal palmprint descending from the heavens, tearing the Divine Beast Plains apart. Countless chasms spread from it, dividing the terrain and reshaping the land.
