281: Red Flash

Only then did Chen Tianming let out a sigh.

What use was even a battleship at the Grand Completion stage?

Although the item sounded incredibly powerful, Chen Tianming was still trapped in some mysterious part of Tianling Peak.

He couldn't get out at all.

Even ascending to a Grand Unity Golden Immortal would be useless if he couldn't leave!

Just then, the system prompt flashed again.

“Second draw initiated!”

Chen Tianming watched with a curious mindset, wanting to see what other rewards the system could give him.

Many times, Chen Tianming had grown accustomed to white, blue, purple, and gold rewards.

Although these gold rewards always provided him with immense help.

But now, trapped in an ethereal place.

Chen Tianming's mind wasn't on these rewards.

However, just as Chen Tianming was distracted.

Suddenly, he felt his eyes light up.

The anticipated golden light did not appear.

Instead, a red-gold intertwined light emerged!

This was the first time Chen Tianming had seen such a light among the system's rewards.

Chen Tianming immediately became excited.

A red treasure must be more special than any he had received before.

Unexpectedly, when he opened it.

It turned out to be a red box…

With a thought, the system's introduction appeared on the box…

“Congratulations, Host! You have obtained the Planet Devourer Treasure Chest!”

“The treasure chest can yield 120 types of items, with a 13.9% chance for red items, 22.8% for gold, and 30.4% for purple…”

Seeing this string of introductions, Chen Tianming's excited mood immediately calmed down.

He narrowed his eyes helplessly.

“This must be a joke! A red box, and it can still yield purple treasures? What the hell is this!”

Chen Tianming reached out slightly, and the red glowing box appeared in his hand.

The box was primarily purple and green, looking like a human brain.

After looking at it back and forth a couple of times, Chen Tianming shook his head and sighed in confusion…

“It looks no different from an ordinary box… I'll know what's inside once I open it, right?”

Chen Tianming then realized the box wasn't locked.

He just needed to place his hand on the box and think about opening it.

With a 'bang,' the lid of the box opened, and dust scattered around.

However, the red light Chen Tianming had been expecting did not appear.

He was about to peer inside curiously.

But unexpectedly, at that moment, a dazzling red light suddenly burst forth!

A world-shaking red light made Chen Tianming unable to open his eyes.

It truly was a treasure given by the system!

Even the light emitted by the treasure had such power.

Chen Tianming instinctively grabbed forward.

Unexpectedly, a sensation of fullness immediately enveloped Chen Tianming's arm.

Only then did he dare to open his eyes and look.

He found that a silvery-white sphere had appeared in his palm.

The surface of this sphere was covered with layers of white flames, appearing small and calm.

But the moment Chen Tianming held this sphere in his hand.

A feeling like being hammered on the back of the head suddenly arose.

It was as if a god had grabbed the spine behind Chen Tianming.

And even tried to pull his spine out.

Chen Tianming immediately gripped the sphere with both hands.

At the same time, the reward notification from the system appeared in his mind.

“Congratulations, Host! You have drawn a Mythical-grade reward from the treasure chest, with only a 0.11347% chance of appearing!”

“Item Name: Cosmic Egg”

“A concentrated cosmic entity from an entire era, capable of regenerating into a new universe!”

Seeing this description, Chen Tianming couldn't help but slap his forehead.

“What is this! Cosmic Egg? The universe can be an egg!”

Chen Tianming was currently in a cultivation world.

And the strange description of the Cosmic Egg in his hand was clearly completely different from the world he was in.

The stark contrast made Chen Tianming somewhat difficult to accept for a moment.

However, the system's explanation was quite clear.

This Cosmic Egg was now bound to him.

The ultimate outcome of the Cosmic Egg was to evolve into a new universe.

But what it would experience in between, and how to nurture and hatch this Cosmic Egg, Chen Tianming did not yet know.

Although the Mythical-grade treasure had been drawn, it was actually of little use.

The system also didn't forget to give Chen Tianming a few packets of spicy strips, melon seeds, or instant noodles and cigarettes to relieve his boredom.

Chen Tianming held a cigarette in one hand and continuously shoved melon seeds into his mouth with the other.

He began to observe his surroundings.

He found the place to be ethereal and indistinct.

However, there were a few seemingly thick spiritual energy pulses constantly throbbing nearby.

It was precisely because of this that Chen Tianming deduced he was in Tianling Peak.

In the entire Small World, only Tianling Peak possessed such rich and vast spiritual veins.

Chen Tianming didn't know how long he had been there.

He glanced at his watch and realized that three full days had passed.

However, Chen Tianming had done nothing.

He felt he shouldn't continue to waste time, stood up, holding a packet of instant noodles, and began walking towards the nearest spiritual vein.

In the darkness, a patch of light suddenly appeared.

Silver spiritual energy flowed ahead, beautiful like the Milky Way.

Chen Tianming's body was drawn by the powerful spiritual energy, and he couldn't help but take a step forward, reaching out as if to scoop water from a river.

The moment his fingers entered the spiritual vein, a powerful force rushed towards him.

If he wasn't careful, he would truly be caught off guard.

Chen Tianming abruptly flipped his palm, directly suppressing that force.

Immediately after, a feeling of unwillingness and humiliation suddenly appeared in his mind.

Chen Tianming tried to find out why this spiritual energy was mixed with emotions.

Slowly, he actually discovered that this was no spiritual vein at all!

This was clearly a human meridian!

Chen Tianming expanded his perception range, his spiritual power constantly flowing through the river formed by the spiritual meridians.

An ethereal humanoid figure appeared before Chen Tianming's eyes.

The moment this person appeared, the Fire Kirin remnant soul contained within Chen Tianming's bloodline suddenly let out a heaven-shaking roar.

Immediately after, the Fire Kirin seemed to lose control, leaping out and opening its large mouth.

From its mouth, lava-like flames spewed forth.

Yet, it was able to swallow all the spiritual energy in the great rivers and lakes before him!

Just by watching, Chen Tianming was scared half to death.

Who would have thought that a wisp of a remnant soul would swallow others' meridians?

The key was, who was the person with these meridians!

As Chen Tianming was wondering, the Fire Kirin's power grew stronger and stronger.

Chen Tianming felt as if something was breaking free from his spine and blood vessels.

The blood throughout his body also began to boil.

This made him feel incredibly uncomfortable.

For a moment, Chen Tianming couldn't think of a countermeasure, so he resorted to the most thoughtless and wasteful method.

He stuffed all the spiritual energy treasures on his body into the Energy Converter, rapidly absorbing the spiritual energy from the treasures!
