Upon hearing Goulong’s request, the leader of the Feather Dragons looked at Ye Chen with a face full of question marks.

“I’m not sick, why would I take medicine… Hey!” It shouted.

Ye Chen had already taken out a few pieces of Dragon Claw Grass from his inventory. Then, he immediately grabbed its head and stuffed it into its mouth.

No matter what, the leader of the Feather Dragons was a Divine Beast that had only lived for a hundred years. How could it be ambushed by him? It immediately shook Ye Chen off and retreated to the side.

“Little White, why are you resisting so much? This guy is going to possess you later. It won’t hurt you!” Ye Chen went up to it without giving up. “It has little mental energy. Don’t delay. You have to do what it wants!”

He knew that the leader of the Feather Dragons wouldn’t really reject him forever, so he became unyielding. As expected, the leader of the Feather Dragons hesitated for a few seconds before eating the fragment of Dragon Claw Grass that was delivered to its mouth.

Its expression was clearly still a little shaken.

In the secret chamber, Goulong was clearly paying attention to its words and actions. However, the illusionary mist was too heavy and it could not see the outside clearly. It asked Ye Chen a few questions and urged him to finish feeding it quickly.

“Stop rushing it. It has already eaten it!” Ye Chen was a little impatient. “Tell me what to do next!”

Goulong’s old voice also sounded much more lively. “Let it in! After I possess it, there won’t be any problem of insufficient mental energy.”

Upon hearing this, the leader of the Feather Dragons was a little stunned. “Please explain this.” It grabbed a wall beside the door of the secret chamber and kept its body outside the secret chamber. “I volunteered to be the sacrifice for you to borrow my body, but I think I should have the right to know.”

Goulong let out an impatient sigh. “No matter what, I’m already dead. The petrified state of the Spirit Pool is completely irreversible. Are you still afraid that I can snatch your body for my own use?” It asked the leader of the Feather Dragons. “It’s just that after taking these Dragon Claw Grass, your body will have some characteristics that will allow me to temporarily mobilize a portion of your mental energy. Don’t talk so much.”

The leader of the Feather Dragons still looked doubtful, as if it wanted to ask more. However, Zhurong, who was behind it, also became annoyed.

“You’re really troublesome. You think so much. Why don’t you wait until we get out before settling the score with it?” It kicked the leader of the Feather Dragons from behind. “Let’s get down to business first. Goulong only has two fragments of the Spirit Pool left anyway. If anything happens to you after eating them, eat the fragments of the Spirit Pool that it left behind after we get out as compensation, alright?”

“How can this be?!” The leader of the Feather Dragons flapped its wings to refuse but was kicked by Zhurong again. Its already small body couldn’t dodge in time and it lost its balance and fell into the secret chamber.

Goulong didn’t say anything else and immediately possessed it. After a while, it woke up from the body of the leader of the Feather Dragons.

Fortunately, Ye Chen had just asked Zhurong to burn the secret chamber. The illusionary mist in front of the door had just been weakened to the point that it was the most visible. Little Purple could see through it with its Titan’s Eye. It discovered the figure of the leader of the Feather Dragons that had been possessed by Goulong and quickly pulled it out of the secret chamber.

“Not bad. It’s been a long time since I felt like I have a body.” Goulong moved its claws and wings and said in satisfaction, “I feel that we can start to return to our positions and prepare to open the array in the secret chamber. I suggest that you all build a platform and stay in the fire array. The child I’m possessing is quite capable. If we trigger the trap, our strength might not be able to suppress it for a while!”

Although these words were clearly talking about the two possessed Divine Beasts and it was an objective fact that the leader of the Feather Dragons was stronger than the Immortal Phoenix, the energy released after the trap was triggered completely came from the fragments of the Spirit Pools of the two ancient Divine Beasts, so this was no different from saying that Zhurong was weaker than it.

However, when Ye Chen looked at Zhurong speechlessly, he realized that it had no intention of quarreling.

“It’s right. It’s best for you to stay in the fire array.” Zhurong said to Ye Chen and the other Divine Beasts calmly, “The spread of the Fire Spiritual Energy is slightly slower. You might be affected by it in the ice array. The shelter of the Feather Dragons that was created previously seems to have been sealed. It’s safer for you to stay with me. When the forces on both sides are about to cancel out, immediately go there to remove the secret chamber in the ice array and then bring it to me as soon as possible.”

After saying that, it abandoned everyone and flew out of the array alone.

“It’s really a wonderful virtue to not quarrel at a critical moment…” Ye Chen heaved a sigh of relief and whispered to his mutated beasts,” Learn well.”

Kun Peng and Monkey, who were usually the most noisy, turned their heads away and pretended not to hear it this time. Ye Chen could not help but knock on their heads.

“You really trust me!” Goulong also sighed and turned to Ye Chen. “Who will announce the countdown?”

In order to trigger the traps on both sides at the same time, Ye Chen set a countdown for them. What he used was the perception connection between the Titan’s Eyes. However, in fact, only Ye Chen and Little Purple could use it fully. After Monkey’s Titan’s Eye mutated into an Energy Stone, although it could also partially communicate with its senses, its ability was slightly inferior to Little Purple’s. Ye Chen was still worried about this.

Therefore, his plan was to let Little Purple communicate with his senses and then he would relay the countdown to Goulong. Moreover, Ye Chen himself had the skill of extreme speed. He could retreat as quickly as possible before the countdown ended.

“I’ll report the countdown. Just be prepared,” Ye Chen said. “However, are you sure you have a way to deal with the explosion of the Dragon Claw Grass?”

“No one understands that thing better than me.” Goulong replied in a deep voice, “To put it bluntly, it’s just a curse. I naturally know how to remove the curse on it after being protected by the Divine Realm of the Wind God for so long.”

Ye Chen gave him a puzzled look. “The curse of the Wind God?” He asked.

Goulong nodded.

There were very few records of curses in the information that Ye Chen currently knew, let alone a curse left behind by a god. This made Ye Chen sigh. The information that was left behind now had really lost too much important content.

At this moment, a few loud sounds came from behind him.

“You can go over first,” Goulong said. “It’s time to break the array in the secret chamber.”
