'The Zhurong Mystic Realm?

The corpse of the Divine Beast, Zhurong, was in such a place?

Ye Chen was greatly shocked. It wasn't until the Immortal Phoenix put them down on the black rocky beach at the foot of the mountain that he regained his senses. He ordered Little Purple to find an empty space and focused the Ice Fire Armor under its feet.
Then, he sat on the ice and opened his inventory again to take out the Wasteland Remembrance.

“It's very rare to see two Mystic Realms put together, but it's not impossible.” He muttered to himself. “I should also leam a bit more about Zhurong.”

After that, Ye Chen started looking for information about Zhurong in the Wasteland Remembrance.

Ye Chen was completely familiar with the name Zhurong. This was the name of the God of Fire in his previous world and also the name of an extremely powerful mutated beast in this Wilderness World.

Zhurong was born in the Human-Faced Bird Race that lived in the southwest of the West Continent. The reason why it wasnt called by its race name was because its strength had far exceeded that of its own kind.

'The Human-Faced Birds were of the same race as the Immortal Phoenix. They were also from the Sun, but they werent pure fire-type mutated beasts. Instead, they had both the fire and earth attributes. The mix of power made it difficult for them to find a suitable cultivation method.

Zhurong chose to unleash the fire attribute to the extreme. It even used an extremely dangerous method to use the Fire Spiritual Energy in its body to refine the Earth Spiritual Energy. It also obtained the ability to use fire to move lands. This allowed it to reach the peak of combat strength in the Ancient
Wilderness.

The Fire Kite Peak, which was a Mystic Realm formed by its remains, could be used as a training ground for the Planet-Grade mutated beasts, the Ice Sea Beetles. From this, one could see how powerful it was.
However, such a powerful Divine Beast, Zhurong, disappeared silently just like that. No mutated beast or human knew where it had gone. They couldn't even find the Mystic Realm that Zhurong's body had transformed into. Unexpectedly, it turned out to have died at the seaside of the East Continent.
The appearance of the Zhurong Mystic Realm was also very strange.

'The Mystic Realms that Ye Chen had seen previously all maintained the appearance of mutated beasts and were extremely huge. However, for the Mystic Realm of Fire Kite Mountain, even when the Immortal Phoenix brought them to the sky, Ye Chen still couldn't see any similarities between it and a
Human-Faced Bird, let alone on the ground.

“Usually, the head is the entrance to the Mystic Realm, but I can't see where the head of the Zhurong Mystic Realm is.” Ye Chen put the Wasteland Remembrance back into his inventory and looked at the Immortal Phoenix.

“Sun God Envoy, the volcano you just awakened is called Fire Kite Mountain. It's a Mystic Realm of a Human-Faced Bird called Zhurong.” He asked, “Can you tell where its head is?”

The Immortal Phoenix was apparently very shocked.

“Master, you're saying that's a Mystic Realm?” It cried out in surprise. “I've seen a Human-Faced Birdin the memories of my race during the advancement, but I really can't see how that mountain is related to a human-faced bird!”

As soon as it finished speaking, it immediately rushed into the sky to take a look again.

“Wait, Big Sister!” At this moment, Little Purple stopped the Immortal Phoenix. “Master, let me go too. My Titan's Eye might be useful!”

“What's the Titan's Eye?” The Immortal Phoenix asked curiously.

“The Titan's Eye is a common characteristic of the Titan Race, which is the eye on my forehead.” Little Purple explained. “When my bloodline awakened, I saw the scenes of the past. The Titan Race all have such an eye. When it's working, I can see through all the disguises.”
“Little Purple, if I awaken my bloodline in the future, will I also have this eye?” Monkey was somewhat excited. After all, the Titan Apes were also descendants of the Titan Race. It didn't have any special abilities and had long been envious.

“Yes.” Little Purple replied briefly and then looked at Ye Chen.

“In that case, we might as well let Kun Peng bring everyone up. If we really find the entrance to the Mystic Realm, we'll go down directly.” Ye Chen replied. Then, he added, “However, we can't split up. Moreover, we have to use the Concealment Mirage now.”

After saying that, he pointed at the sea.

While the mutated beasts were discussing, Ye Chen observed the surroundings and saw the shadow of a ship in the distance. It was moving very quickly and should have mutated beasts on it. From its direction, it didn't seem to be coming towards the Demon Flame Mountain.
However, Ye Chen was still very vigilant. He didn't plan to let the people on the ship discover any of his mutated beasts.

The five mutated beasts shut up one after another. With the support of the Kun Peng's water vapor, Ye Chen and the Godly Sea Steadying Needle released some mist. Everyone flew high into the sky and started to look down at the Fire Kite Mountain seriously. Little Purple also focused its power on the Titan's
Eye on its forehead.

Without the protection of the Ice Fire Armor, this was the first time Ye Chen saw the Fire Kite Mountain so clearly.
Although it was called Fire Kite Mountain, it didn't look like a bird. Its outer curve was round like an egg buried in the soil. It was clearly different from the other peaks of the Demon Flame Mountain.
“The person who named Fire Kite Mountain is really humorous. If I were to name it, I would call it Roasted Egg Mountain.” Ye Chen was amused. “Speaking of looking like a bird, the entire Demon Flame Mountain does look a little similar.”

While looking down at the Demon Flame Mountain, Ye Chen thought that the entire mountain range did look like a big bird, but the other mountains weren't connected and the shape of the mountain range was also like an irregular pile of firewood. It was definitely not a Mystic Realm transformed by a
mutated beast.

At this moment, Little Purple spoke.

“Kun Peng, let's go down to the mountainside behind Fire Kite Mountain.' It told the Kun Peng the landing location loudly.

The Kun Peng looked baffled, but this time, it was quite happy that it wasn't called an idiot. It happily flew everyone to the landing location Little Purple mentioned.

Because of the burning of the lava and Earth Fire, there was no place to land on Fire Kite Mountain. Little Purple used the Ice Fire Armor to build a landing platform. After getting off the Kun Peng's back, it pointed its tail at the front of the platform.
“This is Senior Zhurong's head. We have to break the surface of the mountain to enter.”

“How did it disguise itself?” Ye Chen exclaimed, 'Little Purple, it's all thanks to your ability. Otherwise, we definitely wouldn't have been able to find this place.”

However, Little Purple's answer was beyond his expectations.

“This Mystic Realm has never been disguised. This is what Senior Zhurong looked like when it died.” Little Purple said, “The mountains around it are all the remains of Senior Zhurong after it was burnt and Fire Kite Mountain is an egg that it transformed into..”
