How important is a Divine Spark Fragment to a deity?

It's equivalent to cutting off a piece of one's own life.

Chen Huaian's words were no different from asking them to buy the ticket after boarding the train, and as for whether the train would derail or not, the ticket money wouldn't be refunded anyway.

Yet, Eve did not hesitate in the slightest.

She raised her hand.

That fragment, radiating a dense aura of life and nature, slowly drifted towards Chen Huaian.

"Take it." Eve's voice was soft, yet carried trust and determination. "If it fails, consider it as me owing you a favor."

Hades, standing to the side, felt his eyelids twitch wildly upon hearing this.

A favor?

Using a Divine Spark Fragment as a favor?

He must not have woken up properly today.

Hades gave himself a slap on the face, lay down on the ground, and started trying to sleep again.

Chen Huaian didn't speak, nor did he immediately take the Divine Spark Fragment offered by Eve. Instead, his gaze shifted to Poseidon.

Poseidon pondered for a moment.

He turned to look at Xindra, lying motionless on the ground. In his eyes, as deep blue as the abyssal sea, complex emotions of sorrow and anger surged and intertwined.

He clenched his fist, energy from the Divine Spark Fragment seeping out from between his fingers, before slowly relaxing his grip after a long pause.

"Take it!"

The deep-blue fragment shot through the air, flying to hover before Chen Huaian.

"Since I've taken it out, I had no intention of taking it back." Poseidon's voice was low. "Eve is my wife. Since Eve trusts you, then I am also willing to gamble! At most…"

He didn't continue.

At most, he would fall from Chief God to High God, to be suppressed and trampled by those bootlicker deities under the Golden Dragon King's command.

To lift the curse from his daughter, even if there was only a sliver of a chance, he wanted to fight for it.

"Good."

Chen Huaian nodded, grasping both Divine Spark Fragments in his palm.

The moment they touched his hand, the vast divine power within them sent a shock through his entire body.

His left hand felt as heavy as a thousand weights, as if dragging an entire sea.

His right hand felt warm and cool, as if holding the first breeze of spring.

He hesitated no longer, pressing both Eve's and Poseidon's Divine Sparks against his chest.

Boom——!

Two completely different, yet ultimately similar, divine essences intertwined and coiled within his body. Even with the power of a Golden Immortal, he almost couldn't suppress this violent divine energy.

Fortunately, the Divine Spark Fragments were willingly bestowed by Eve and Poseidon, so the two divine energies were relatively peaceful and didn't erupt into chaos.

Chen Huaian sat cross-legged on the ground, his eyes slightly closed.

As the Divine Sparks entered his body, the two originally dormant primordial spirits within his dantian immediately began to stir restlessly!

"Roar——!"

An impassioned dragon's roar and a qilin's roar sounded out one after the other.

From those roars, Chen Huaian could clearly sense emotions of yearning and anticipation.

"Be patient," Chen Huaian whispered in his heart, soothing them. "It will be done soon."

He used his own body as a furnace to refine the Divine Sparks.

The vast divine essence transformed into a torrential flood, madly nourishing the two primordial spirits within his Energy Sea.

The two divine essences swiftly repaired the dried-up primordial spirits of the Qilin and the Azure Dragon.

But it seemed he had still underestimated the power of the Divine Spark Fragments.

Merely repairing the primordial spirits was not the limit of these fragments.

The divine essence within was too pure, too immense, and its compatibility with the Azure Dragon and Qilin was so high that it was sufficient to…

Remold their physical bodies!

"Hum——"

The void trembled.

Eve and Poseidon's pupils constricted sharply.

They saw the space to the left and right of Chen Huaian begin to warp violently.

To the left, a brilliant cyan radiance blazed.

To the right, auspicious energy shot towards the heavens.

Two enormous, illusory figures materialized, and then… began to solidify at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Flesh and blood derived, scales and armor outlined.

On the left was a winding, coiling azure-blue dragon—antlers like a deer, head like a camel, eyes like a rabbit, neck like a snake. This was the true form of the Azure Dragon.

Its entire body was covered in bluish-white dragon scales, each scale flowing with the most intense vitality of the Great Dao.

The Azure Dragon merely coiled there, yet it seemed like a primeval forest, a sea of life nurturing all things.

On the right was a majestic auspicious beast treading upon shattered void—dragon head, deer antlers, lion eyes, tiger back, bear waist, snake scales. This was the true form of the Qilin.

Its four hooves trod upon auspicious clouds, its body surrounded by a multicolored halo. The aura it exuded was ancient and profound, sacred and inviolable.

Before the Azure Dragon's body had fully solidified, faint phoenix cries began to resonate from within Chen Huaian's body.

Simultaneously, Vermilion Bird cries also sounded from Li Qingran's side.

But as the cries continued, the tone, initially filled with concern and longing, gradually took on a hint of a combative edge.

The corner of Chen Huaian's mouth twitched.

He mourned for the Azure Dragon in his heart for a second.

At the same time, a sliver of hope rose within him. The auras of the Azure Dragon and Qilin were indeed much more peaceful than those of the Vermilion Bird and Phoenix.

He who takes the money, settles the debt.

He genuinely wanted to free Xindra from the Golden Dragon King's curse.

Before long, the bodies of the Azure Dragon and Qilin finally solidified completely.

Simultaneously, the unique Dao Rhythms belonging to the two great Sacred Beasts rippled through the Canglan World for the first time.

Splash——! Waves churned and rolled around the Qilin.

This Endless Sea was Poseidon's domain. In theory, all seawater here was under his control.

No existence should be able to stir the waters here. With just a thought, a glance from Poseidon, the Battle Souls of any water-attribute Battle Master in the Endless Sea would be as good as crippled, their Battle Power frozen, unable to unleash a single Battle Technique.

But the Qilin had caused the surrounding waters to slip from the Sea God's control.

This scene alone caused Poseidon's expression to change drastically.

Right before his eyes, silently stripping away part of the Sea God's authority—how was this any different from cuckolding him in front of his face?

Eve's feelings were similar to Poseidon's.

At this moment, she stood upon the sea's surface, yet dense vegetation sprouted beneath her feet.

But with the appearance of the Azure Dragon, a large portion of these plants also began to grow around it.

These two colossal beasts did not possess World Rings, and their auras were different from the World Beasts of the Canglan World.

But the aura they exuded was absolutely no weaker than any million-year-old World Beast.

How did that man in white make these two giant beasts appear out of thin air?

Moreover, it seemed their Divine Spark power had been absorbed by these two beasts…

Eve pressed her lips together, a few conjectures forming in her heart.

Both Chen Huaian and Li Qingran had previously manifested phenomena of divine birds.

If her speculation wasn't wrong, those two divine birds and the two giant beasts before her should share the same origin.

And the reason the flames on the divine birds felt familiar to her was probably because they came from the Fire God, Prometheus.

Connecting this to Chen Huaian saying he needed to unseal his power…

Then everything made sense.

These extraordinary beasts were perhaps the power Chen Huaian needed to unseal.

Now that she and Poseidon had given Chen Huaian Divine Spark Fragments, Chen Huaian's power had been unsealed a step further.

Her heart stirred.

A stronger Chen Huaian might mean a greater chance of saving her daughter!

Hades stood behind Eve and Poseidon.

He silently stared at the two giant beasts, swallowing a mouthful of saliva with difficulty.

He was now utterly convinced of one thing.

This man…

Really could kill the Golden Dragon King!

After a long while.

The power of the Divine Spark Fragments was completely digested.

Chen Huaian slowly opened his eyes.

The massive bodies of the Azure Dragon and Qilin lay prostrate before him like two great mountains, quiet and serene.

Chen Huaian raised his hand.

With a wave of his long sleeve.

"Hum."

A transparent ripple spread through space.

As this ripple swept past, the two Sacred Beasts lying prostrate on the ground simultaneously opened their eyes!
