Main Text Chapter 91 Hatching the Dark Egg (Part 4)
Since it is effective, it is worthwhile to cut the flesh and bleed it.
Miao Yi was looking forward to the sight of hundreds of underworld mantises listening to his orders, so without saying a word, the knife flashed out of the storage ring, as if bleeding someone else's blood. He didn't feel any pain at all, and made a bloody cut in the palm of his hand. , and quickly smeared each egg with blood again.
He used the fairy grass to heal the wound on his palm, then pulled a hundred long hairs into his hand, and used the secret method taught by Lao Bai to activate the ghost eggs.
After doing this, Miao Yi came outside with the jade plate. The frost covering his long hair dissipated in a burst of black smoke when he saw the sun.
After placing the jade plate on the star observation platform, Miao Yi flew down and repeated his instructions to Qian'er and Xue'er before returning to the quiet room to continue practicing.
Except for some important things, Miao Yi left daily matters to Yan Xiu to take care of. He asked everyone to report to Yan Xiu and gave Yan Xiu great rights. Yan Xiu has almost become the steward of Donglai Cave. .
This is a huge difference in treatment for Yan Xiu, who was once unpopular in Fuguang Cave.
Everyone in Donglai Cave knows that the cave master is practicing in seclusion and will not leave Donglai Hall easily, so unless there is something important, they will not bother him.
Under normal circumstances, nothing would happen to Donglai Cave as long as someone didn't deliberately cause trouble.
In fact, everyone is practicing on their own, and no monk will wander around like a normal person. If this is the case, then Donglai City does not need to be left to mortals to take care of.
Except for some unavoidable shifts that must be done, such as guarding the mountain gate or going out to patrol and inquire for news, there are almost no monks in the entire Donglai Cave. On the contrary, from time to time, maids from various mansions can be seen outside visiting the mountains. Things like playing with water or cleaning.
Qian'er and Xue'er, who received the teachings from Yan Xiu, have also entered the initial stage of semi-cultivation, and they are rarely seen showing up.
The life of a monk is basically like this, which is very boring for mortals.
Hei Tan is still the same as before. He spends most of the time guarding Miao Yi's door, lying there with his tail wagging and taking a nap. He doesn't need anyone to take care of him. If he is hungry, he will run out and jump into the nearby lake to have a good meal. Then he went back to sleep on his own, too lazy to move at all. He was really living like a pig.
The two girls were also familiar with Heitan. When Miao Yi was away, the two would squat next to Heitan, whisper and play with Heitan, and help Heitan comb his mane. Heitan would sneeze in response. Enjoy with half-closed eyes.
Such days repeat themselves day by day and pass by day by day.
Seventy-seven forty-nine days later, Miao Yi, who was practicing in seclusion, faintly felt that the egg in the vest seemed to have undergone abnormal changes.
The gloomy aura emanating from the ghost egg was no longer compelling. Miao Yi could feel that the gloomy aura was no longer spreading outwards, but was gradually becoming introverted.
This change is in line with Lao Bai's story, which makes Miao Yi very happy. He wants to cast a spell to spy on the situation in the underworld egg. However, the exploration with magic power cannot break through the 'yin and yang two realms', which is the skin of the underworld egg. He can only give up and slowly Wait slowly.
Ninety-nine and eighty-one days later, the gloomy aura in the egg seemed to have subsided, and even Miao Yi, who was storing it close to his body, could not feel it at all.
Instead, there seemed to be an inexplicable emotion in the egg trying to communicate with Miao Yi, not one, but hundreds of them, but the emotion seemed so confusing that Miao Yi couldn't understand what it meant.
But this was enough to make Miao Yi ecstatic. If he guessed correctly, the thing contained in the egg seemed to have taken shape and was about to be broken out of the shell and reborn!
According to Lao Bai's instructions, from today on, I no longer need to cut my flesh and bleed it, nor do I need to wear it close to my body. Instead, I have to leave it outside all day long, regardless of wind, rain, sun, moon and stars, let it be stored in the open air and feel this world.
"Qian'er, Xue'er, you two have to work hard from today on. You have to take turns guarding me around the clock. Don't let the birds take it away. If anything happens, let me know immediately!"
On the observatory, Miao Yi solemnly confessed to the two girls.
Because the ghost eggs at this time are the most fragile and dangerous. In the past, the cold aura they exuded could make the birds and beasts dare not move, but now it is no longer possible. It is estimated that a sparrow can kill them. Peck away.
The two girls naturally did not dare to make any mistakes.
After entrusting the things to the care of the two maids, Miao Yi no longer has to go out twice a day to collect and release the ghost eggs, and can practice in seclusion around the clock.
At this time, he had already refined the two small half wish beads that he had snatched from Mo Shengtu and Zhang Shucheng. These two beads were almost equivalent to a full one. It took Miao Yi almost three months.
When the wish power bead snatched from Huang Baozhang was almost half refined, Qian'er ran to the door of the stone chamber and called, "Master of the Cave, I don't know what happened to the things on the observatory. There is something unusual. Please tell me." Come and take a look!”
Miao Yi quickly finished his work, spit out the wishing beads and put them away, and quickly came to the observatory outside.
Xue'er was squatting down to check the contents of the jade plate with a curious look on her face. When she saw Miao Yi coming, she quickly stood up.
Miao Yi took a closer look and found that the hair on the egg seemed to be much shorter.
This was also in line with what Lao Bai said. Miao Yi immediately cast a spell to listen to the sound, and faintly heard a rustling chewing sound in the ghost egg. If he hadn't cast a spell, it would have been hard to hear.
With Lao Bai's advance prediction, Miao Yi already understood what was going on. The little guys in the eggs should be eating the hair he inserted into them. When they slowly eat up their hair, if Lao Bai is right, the things inside will soon see the light of day.
"It's okay! Notify me if there is any other situation."
Miao Yi smiled and turned around and floated away from the observatory. Under the gaze of the two girls, he flashed into the house and continued to practice.
A month and a half later, Miao Yi, who had completely refined the remaining half of the wish bead, sat quietly for two days, and his closed eyebrows suddenly moved slightly.
The source of law in his body, which had not grown for a long time, suddenly became a little bigger, and the gray source of law that was like chaos seemed to be brighter. The ability to control the magic power around him seemed to be instantly raised to another level. This moment made Miao Yi suddenly feel extremely powerful.
Miao Yi's eyes suddenly opened, and the palms pressed on his knees turned up to the sky. A ball of water suddenly jumped out of the pool in front of him and flew in front of him.
The water ball quickly became flat like a mirror in front of his eyes. In the water mirror, Miao Yi's vague reflection showed a white lotus with two petals blooming between his eyebrows.
His cultivation finally broke through to the second level of white lotus!
Miao Yi smiled and stared at the mirror for a while. He was only happy for a while and shook his head slightly.
The cultivation of the second level of white lotus was really not something to be happy about. He had just entered the second level of white lotus. His cultivation was the lowest in the entire Donglai Cave. If he showed off his cultivation, people would still laugh at him.
"Hey! I am the master of Donglai Cave! I can't afford to lose that person..." Miao Yi sighed with unusual melancholy.
A powder box flashed out of the storage ring. He opened it and used his fingers to dip some Lingyin mud and smeared it on his eyebrows to cover up the lotus phantom.
