28: Chapter 28 A Terrifying Being in the Depths of the Stars

After opening the box, Lin Changqing was instantly stunned.

Because the box actually contained an egg.

A basketball-sized, fiery red egg.

Ancient fiery red runes flowed across the eggshell.

A faint yet powerful coercion permeated the surroundings.

"What is this?"

Whispering a word, Lin Changqing took a moment to collect his thoughts.

The Opportunity he had sensed turned out to be an egg.

An egg of unknown origin?

After studying it for a long while without figuring anything out, Lin Changqing decisively put the egg into his xumi ring.

Along the way, he also packed the box and the offering table inside.

The moment Lin Changqing packed these away, the flames in all directions vanished at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing this, Lin Changqing could not help but be dumbfounded.

So?

Everything here was because of this egg?

Terrifying!

What on earth was its background?

Amidst his shock, Lin Changqing's heart was filled with secret, unbridled joy.

It seemed that after hatching this egg, what an extraordinary spiritual pet it would turn out to be!

Hehe!

What Lin Changqing did not know was...

At the same time, outside the Life Continent, deep within the distant starry sky.

A massive beast, entirely fiery red, slowly opened its crimson pupils.

It looked toward the direction where Lin Changqing was!

"Is this the fated person the old charlatan mentioned?"

"To think it is actually a Human Race brat?"

"I hope he won't disappoint this seat!"

Murmuring a few words to itself, it vanished into thin air.

The moment it vanished, the Void Realm in the surrounding area directly collapsed.

As if it had never appeared at all.

If Lin Changqing were here, he would definitely recognize it.

This beast's voice was identical to the low roar from a short while ago.

After searching another circle and finding nothing, Lin Changqing turned and left.

When leaving, he had an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

Where on earth did the danger he felt in this abyss come from?

Those flames?

Or something else?

But he hadn't discovered anything either!

"It is time to go look for the dragon blood flower and flood dragon!"

Stretching lazily, Lin Changqing decisively chose to return the way he came.

Because, according to the clues provided by Jubao Pavilion.

They were both in another direction!

So...

Just as Lin Changqing was about to return to the edge of the Abyss of Slaughter, his expression suddenly became extremely ugly.

Because he discovered that the egg in his xumi ring was quite a scam.

And not just an ordinary scam!

Damn it!

Aside from the Spirit Stone, all the various Medicinal Pills and Materials in his xumi ring had actually been devoured clean by it?

He only had hundreds of millions of Spirit Stones left?

Furthermore, it had even devoured his armor and Formation Plate?

It didn't even spare some of the Cultivation Techniques and other items given by his Great Master?

Are you kidding me?

For a moment, Lin Changqing hardly knew what to say.

What a scam!

It was simply too scammy!

However, what brought him a little comfort was...

Dense cracks had already appeared on the eggshell of this egg.

It looked like it was about to hatch.

Moreover, a faint heartbeat sound had already emanated from this egg.

The coercion surrounding it was also becoming increasingly terrifying.

The moment Lin Changqing stepped out of the Abyss of Slaughter, figures flew over from all directions.

Before he could react, an emerald-green figure appeared by his side and directly whisked him away in a flash.

"Chu Ruoqing?"

"Why are you here?"

"Where are you taking me?"

Turning his head to look at Chu Ruoqing, Lin Changqing couldn't help asking.

"The commotion in the Abyss of Slaughter just now was not small; it has already alerted quite a few people."

"Are you sure you want to continue staying there?"

"Walking out of a forbidden zone, coupled with the commotion just now, do you think you won't become the target of public criticism?"

Looking at Lin Changqing, Chu Ruoqing said slowly.

"This..."

Hearing Chu Ruoqing's words, Lin Changqing could not help but be speechless.

Thinking carefully, it seemed to really make sense.

However, he was not a fool.

After just a little thought, Lin Changqing understood.

Presumably, Chu Ruoqing had been following him in secret all along?

For the mad blood pill?

Not hesitating to secretly escort and protect him?

Thinking of this, Lin Changqing felt a mix of laughter and tears.

It seemed that the temptation of the mad blood pill to Cultivators was truly extraordinary!

But then again...

It seemed that among the various Pill Formulas given to him by his Second Master, there was no mad blood pill.

The various Pill Formulas he used to deal with the backlash after reaching the Martial King Realm all came from his Bloodline Legacy memories.

In other words, each of these Pill Formulas of his was more astonishing in value than the last?

Tsk tsk!

Advancing for over a thousand miles, Chu Ruoqing finally brought Lin Changqing down into a bamboo forest.

Afterwards, she stared straight at Lin Changqing.

"Lin Changqing!"

"Actually, I quite admire you!"

"To dare charge into a forbidden zone like the Abyss of Slaughter?"

"With the cultivation of the Martial General Realm, you can still return alive from such a forbidden zone?"

Staring at Lin Changqing's face, Chu Ruoqing praised in amazement.

"It's alright!"

Rubbing his nose, Lin Changqing said very calmly.

"Rather, aren't you tired of following me all this time?"

Changing the subject, Lin Changqing asked with a half-smile.

"I didn't mean to, I just..."

Hearing Lin Changqing's words, Chu Ruoqing lowered her head and said weakly.

"It's nothing!"

"Speaking of which, I still have to thank you!"

Waving his hand to interrupt Chu Ruoqing's words, Lin Changqing said with a chuckle.

"Aren't you curious about what gains I had in the Abyss of Slaughter?"

Immediately afterward, Lin Changqing added another sentence.

"Curious!"

"But I won't press for answers!"

"Everyone has their own secrets, right?"

Shaking her head with a light chuckle, Chu Ruoqing said slowly.

"That's true too!"

Stunned for a moment, Lin Changqing nodded in agreement.

"Next, shouldn't we go look for the dragon blood flower and flood dragon?"

Changing the subject, Chu Ruoqing said softly.

"Alright!"

"Let's set off!"

"Mhm mhm..."

Afterwards, the two sped away in one direction.

While traveling rapidly, the two began to chat.

What surprised Lin Changqing a bit was!

Chu Ruoqing was actually a student of Samsara Academy!

"However, when I joined the Inner Court before, why didn't I see your name on the leaderboard?"

"With your strength, you should be able to easily crush everything, right?"

Looking at Chu Ruoqing, Lin Changqing asked with some puzzlement.

"Because I don't participate in rankings!"

"Besides, I just hold a nominal position at the Samsara Academy in the Eastern Domain!"

"Usually, I rarely stay inside the academy!"

With a slight smile, Chu Ruoqing said slowly.

"I see!"

Hearing Chu Ruoqing's words, Lin Changqing suddenly came to an enlightenment.

Combining this with the attitude of Manager Sun Wu, the manager of Jubao Pavilion in Reincarnation City, toward Chu Ruoqing, he understood.

Presumably, this Young Miss's background is not simple, right?
