Ye Chen was looking forward to how different the Kung Peng will be because its advancement method was somewhat different from the Immortal Phoenix.
One relied on devouring to quickly advance, while the Divine Phoenix naturally advanced. Killing Vicious Beasts was also within the range of natural advancement.
While Ye Chen was in a daze, the Kun Peng's Eggshell also shattered into mist and was absorbed by the Kun Peng.
"Well…"
A voice that sounded like it came from ancient times resounded throughout the valley. It was deep and low, causing continuous echoes.
The Divine Phoenix in the tribe flew to Ye Chen's shoulder and looked at the Kun Peng. Its golden feathers stood up. Fortunately, these two little guys were Ye Chen's contract beasts. Otherwise, there would definitely be a battle between Divine Beasts.
When the Plague Birds/Thunder Birds outside the valley heard the deep roar of the Kun Peng, they all fell to the ground, shivering, not daring to look directly at the tribe in the valley.
This was only because other wild beasts were far away from the Plague Birds. Otherwise, when the Divine Beast advanced, all the wild beasts within the range would have to lie down.
Screech!
In an instant, the Kun Peng transformed from its giant fish form into its giant roc form. With a loud and clear cry, it broke through the sky and tore through the clouds in the sky.
Ye Chen looked at the Kun Peng in front of him with a smile. The stronger a mutated beast was, the stronger he was!
"Master."
After the promotion, Kun Peng saw Ye Chen smiling at him and immediately shouted.
"Well done," Ye Chen praised.
Ye Chen was no longer surprised that the Immortal Phoenix could speak before it advanced.
However, Kun Peng's proficiency in speaking was clearly much smoother than the Divine Phoenix. This could be the result of Kun Peng swallowing the Black Mark.
Every member of the Black Mark Tribe had lived for countless years and they had the ability to possess someone and read their memories.
It was not strange at all that after the Black Mark was devoured by the Kun Peng, it absorbed some of its characteristics.
What Ye Chen was most curious about was the strength of the Kun Peng after it advanced. He could not wait to take a look and the information about the Kun Peng immediately appeared.
[Kun Peng]
[Race: Divine Roc]
[Rank/Grade: Divine Beast]
[Achievement Length: Childhood]
[Innate Mystic Ability: Devour; Extreme Speed]
[Attack: 5400]
[Defense: 5800]
[Master: Ye Chen]
"This… sure enough, people can't compete with animals."
Ye Chen mocked himself. He was referring to himself.
He still remembered that when the Kun Peng was in its New Life Stage, its attack and defense were only slightly more than 2,000 Points. Once it advanced, it immediately doubled. It was simply ridiculous.
Upon seeing this, Ye Chen's gaze landed on the Divine Phoenix again. Information immediately appeared.
[Sun God Envoy]
[Race: Divine Bird/Phoenix]
[Rank/Grade: Divine Beast]
[Achievement Length: Childhood]
[Innate Mystic Ability: Fire Immunity, Great Sun True Fire, Great Sun Burning Sky]
[Attack: 5800]

[Master: Ye Chen]
"Good heavens, this is absurd!"
Ye Chen originally thought that the Immortal Phoenix would be slightly weaker than the Kun Peng but the panel showed that it was slightly higher than the Kun Peng. This was something Ye Chen did not expect.
He never thought that the Divine Phoenix would quietly give him such a pleasant surprise.
"Sun God Envoy, what have you been eating recently?" Ye Chen could not help but suspect that this little fellow had eaten something good when it was out foraging.
"No, I haven't been out recently." The Immortal Phoenix tilted its head and replied seriously.
There was a reason why it did not go out. The Kun Peng was advancing. Although the location of the tribe was good, it was also afraid that something unexpected could happen. Ye Chen could not handle it alone.
In Ye Chen's words, this little guy might look silly but the intelligence it possessed was not inferior to humans.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. As expected of a Divine Beast." Ye Chen could only console himself in this way. He was just short of being envious of his own Divine Beast.
"Little Fish, quickly call me big sister." The Immortal Phoenix flapped its wings and circled around the Kun Peng as it spoke.
Ye Chen: "???"
Big sister? For a moment, Ye Chen could not react.
The Immortal Phoenix was female? Oh no, female?
Usually, when he heard the Divine Phoenix speak, it sounded like a child's voice. He could not differentiate between male and female. Ye Chen did not pay much attention to this previously as he had always thought that the Divine Phoenix was a male.
However, Ye Chen was dumbfounded.
Driven by curiosity, Ye Chen grabbed the Immortal Deity Bird and flipped it around, causing the Immortal Phoenix to roll its eyes.
It was not easy to struggle because its master was too weak. If it used some strength, it might be able to return to an ownerless state.
In the end, because of the Immortal Phoenix's struggle, Ye Chen let go. However, there was still doubt in his eyes. This look made the Immortal Phoenix shiver and immediately leave Ye Chen.
"hehe… big sis."
This scene made Kun Peng giggle but he still called her big sister.
"Kun Peng, are you male or female? Oh no, male or female?"
Ye Chen felt that it was necessary to clarify the gender of the Kun Peng. Otherwise, it would not be good if he made a big mistake in the future.
"Master, I don't have a gender," the Kun Peng replied honestly.
Ye Chen: "???"
This time, it could not mess with Ye Chen. No matter what, there should be a gender, right?
"Master, it's like this, because the Kun Peng has two forms: the big bird and the small fish. The big bird is male, the small fish is female. When the two are combined into one, it can be said that they are both male and female, and it can also be said that there is no gender." The Divine Phoenix explained to her ignorant master at the right time.
"I see. Today is indeed another day to increase knowledge." Ye Chen nodded and could not help but marvel at the wonders of nature.
Ye Chen found it funny when he heard the Immortal Phoenix's words. The form of a Roc was a big bird and the form of a Leviathan was a small fish.
In that case, could it be that in the eyes of the Divine Phoenix, all the birds were big and the rest were small?
"How does the Kun Peng reproduce?" Ye Chen finally asked the question he wanted to know the most.
Could it be that he had to find a fellow Kun Peng? When it transformed into a bird, the other one transformed into a fish. When it transformed into a fish, the other one transformed into a bird?
That wouldn't do either. Even fish and birds could cause trouble?
Or could it be that the Kun Peng could do things with the males of the fish species and the females of the bird species?
In that case, the Kun Peng was not a male or a female?
These thoughts flashed past Ye Chen's mind. The strange light in his eyes made the Immortal Phoenix and Kun Peng know what he was thinking without even thinking. The two Divine Beasts rolled their eyes at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen did not feel that his thoughts were wrong at all. Instead, he thought more and more.
In the end, Ye Chen's gaze shifted back and forth between the Divine Phoenix and the Kun Peng, causing the two Divine Beasts to shiver.
"According to what I said, can the two of you combine? We should keep the goodies within our own fields. I think this will do!" Ye Chen's shocking words made the two Divine Beasts go berserk.
The two Divine Beasts could not bear it any longer. They stared at Ye Chen unkindly, causing the latter to wake up instantly and feel a lingering fear.
"Master, you lack exercise. Why don't you let us train with you?"
After the Immortal Phoenix finished speaking, the bodies of the two Divine Beasts instantly became much larger. Flames spread all over their bodies and wrapped Ye Chen in the middle one after the other.
"I don't think that's necessary." Ye Chen finally realized how ignorant he was just now.
However, wasn't it too late to say all this now?
