253: Chapter 253 The Origin of Originium Creatures! The Secret of Spiritual Energy Revival
Chapter 1
"I refuse your proposal."
The calm voice was filled with coldness, along with a hint of an undeniable domineering aura, causing the two Red Sparrows to tremble involuntarily.
In the deep pit, Ye Yang's golden pupils gleamed with cold light as he coldly watched the two miserable Red Sparrows opposite him. Based on what the slightly larger Red Sparrow had just said, he knew that these two Red Sparrows were siblings.
If anyone else were to see the scene in the deep pit, they would surely think he was a great villain, bullying these two pitiful Red Sparrows.
But it was clearly these two Red Sparrows who had taken the initiative to enter his territory and attack him; Ye Yang absolutely had no reason to let them both go.
As for why he would not accept the submission of these two Red Sparrows, the reason was very simple.
These two Red Sparrows were mysterious Origin Stone creatures with mysterious origins. Moreover, the larger Red Sparrow's evolution level was about the same as his. Even though he had quickly defeated this larger Red Sparrow, one could not deny that this Red Sparrow possessed strong combat power, enough to pose a certain threat to him at certain specific moments.
It was just that his opponent was Ye Yang. Ye Yang was too strong; his luck in several battles had been quite good, he had devoured creatures to obtain a large number of combat-enhancing talents, and the system's automatic upgrade function had made his talent and skill proficiency levels very high.
His overall combat power far exceeded that of ordinary creatures.
It was simply the difference between a pay-to-win player and a regular player...
"Pfft..."
Hearing Ye Yang's refusal, Elder Brother Red Sparrow became emotionally agitated and could not suppress his injuries. A mouthful of scorching blood was spat out from his beak, making his own red body even more vivid.
"Why..."
He asked Ye Yang, unwilling to give up. For the sake of his sister, he was willing to abandon his pride.
For powerful and arrogant creatures, having powerful creatures submit to them was a good thing that increased their status and honor, so they would generally agree to this proposal, unless...
Unless this creature was about to advance to the next evolution level and needed to devour creatures to obtain energy and ancient genetic factors...
But the bird creature in front of him was indeed very powerful, yet it did not have a trace of the aura of a Commander-level creature—that is, an "A-" level evolution creature—on its body. Furthermore, with the current spiritual energy concentration in the environment, it was impossible for a Commander-level creature to re-emerge, so this fiery red giant bird could not be advancing.
Then he couldn't understand why this bird creature would not accept his proposal of submission.
Facing Elder Brother Red Sparrow's confusion, Ye Yang still spoke up to answer.
"I don't—I don't trust you."
Elder Brother Red Sparrow's red pupils froze, and only then did he react. He had never thought that he would have a day where he would offer submission and beg for mercy, so he had naturally overlooked this factor.
Thump, thump, thump...
A series of thumping sounds were exceptionally jarring in the depths of the large pit...
Elder Brother Red Sparrow watched as Ye Yang moved his golden claws and slowly approached, then turned to look at Little Sister Crimson Sparrow, whose pupils were unfocused, and gritted his teeth in his heart.
"Wait! If you, Great Lord, are worried about this point, I have a way to solve it perfectly!"
"Oh?"
Ye Yang stopped, a gleam of light flashing in his golden pupils as he looked at the heavily injured larger Red Sparrow with interest.
Elder Brother Red Sparrow continued.
"Powerful Great Lord, don't you have a Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox in your territory? According to my inherited memories, a Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox can awaken the ability to control the minds of creatures at around the 'C' level..."
"Our siblings can open our minds and let the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox control us!"
Whoosh!
At this moment, a white figure appeared in the large pit; Little White Fox Ah Li happened to arrive just then.
"Chirp, chirp... It seems I really will have this ability soon..."
After receiving her confirmation, Ye Yang looked at these two Red Sparrows, his attitude becoming somewhat hesitant.
He began to think in his heart.
What could he gain by subduing these two Red Sparrows? To be precise, what were the benefits?
Seeing that he was hesitant, Elder Brother Red Sparrow spoke up, unwilling to give up.
"Soon, this world is going to undergo earth-shattering changes: spiritual energy recovery, ten thousand races competing for hegemony. Although we siblings are not as strong as you, we can definitely help you guard your territory..."
"What kind of changes? Tell me all the information you know."
Only then did Ye Yang realize that this larger Red Sparrow had a very high evolution level and must know more information.
Hearing his question, Elder Brother Red Sparrow was stunned.
"You don't know?"
For powerful Origin Stone creatures, this information was simply common knowledge known to all creatures.
Meeting those golden pupils, although he did not understand in his heart why this powerful bird creature had to ask, he still spoke up.
"A long, long time ago, the spiritual energy concentration of this world was far higher than it is now, and a huge number of races lived in this world..."
"Suddenly, one day, the creatures discovered with surprise that the spiritual energy concentration between heaven and earth was plummeting! For us powerful creatures, this was simply a catastrophic disaster!"
Ye Yang's golden pupils narrowed into slits.
This larger Red Sparrow was quite honest, starting from the most basic information. This passage was not much different from Ye Yang's own speculations.
Ye Yang, including Little White Fox Ah Li, and Little Sister Crimson Sparrow were all carefully listening to the information Elder Brother Red Sparrow was revealing.
"For us, spiritual energy is like the relationship between water and fish; if a fish leaves the water, it can only die..."
"No one knew what the reason for the disappearance of the world's spiritual energy concentration was, but for the survival of their races and descendants... so, at that time, the highest-level evolution creatures among a large number of races began to look for solutions."
"Ultimately, two solutions were determined."
"Some creatures left this planet and flew towards the cosmic expanse, wanting to find another planet suitable for survival and with spiritual energy for their race to multiply..."
"However, I don't know how long has passed since then. Judging by my awakening from the Origin Stone, this large group of creatures must have failed and died in the cosmic expanse..."
"The second solution was to seal oneself in an Origin Stone and hide in the deepest space of the planet, waiting for the spiritual energy concentration of this world to rise, at which point the Origin Stone creatures would gradually awaken."
Red Sparrow continued to speak, "Although the second solution looks like a solution, it treats the symptoms but not the root cause..."
"Because the effect of the Origin Stone seal has no effect at all for truly powerful evolution creatures, those supreme powerhouses joined forces to seal all the spiritual energy remaining in the world at that time into a secret space in the deepest part of the Blue Planet; that is the resting place for powerful creatures of all races..."
Hearing this, Ye Yang gradually understood.
"So that's how it is... I didn't expect that the Blue Planet of this world actually had such an unknown history; it's truly incredible."
"I understand the meaning of spiritual energy recovery, but what does 'ten thousand races competing for hegemony' mean?"
